Li Chenglu really didn't expect how low the brokerage company here would lower its bottom line in order to come to China.
No, it’s not rigorous to say so.
In fact, in terms of money, several major brokerage companies have taken a lot of money, but compared to the astronomical figures that are often exaggerated in China, it seems that the people here have no structure.
It was somewhat beyond Li Chenglu's expectation that the guests could be decided so smoothly.
Of course, to a certain extent, it was also due to the fact that the artists invited this time were all non-South Korean artists, so everything was accomplished extremely smoothly.
Now that the work is over, Li Chenglu has bought a ticket to go back.
She knew that Liu Xin'an was traveling with Twice these days. It was a pity that because of her own work, she had no chance to meet Twice.
But after returning to China this time, she will definitely watch the show when it is filmed.
Wendy, momo, lisa, plus Song Yuqi.
What kind of top lineup is this?
"Haven't you received the news yet? Haven't you already started drafting the contract?"
"Uh... I guess I was stopped at my dad's place."
"Oh, that's right."
Li Cheng suddenly remembered this incident and showed an embarrassed smile.
Senior executives of state-controlled enterprises, in addition to their high positions in the company, are also officials at the deputy department level within the system...
And this kind of invitation to Liu Xin'an to attend a variety show will definitely not be hidden from my father's eyes.
Whether this invitation can finally fall into his hands depends on whether his father nods.
Just as Liu Xin'an predicted, this cooperation contract that should have been reviewed early and then handed over to Liu Xin'an was now in front of Liu Zhengjiang.
Liu Zhengjiang didn't know about this at first. He just answered a phone call while at work today. Then, out of curiosity and the idea of helping his son clear mines, he blocked the contract.
Don't really think that Liu Zhengjiang has a complete free-range policy towards Liu Xin'an. In the past few years, this kid has been the master of Up, and he has been secretly taking care of him.
Of course, even if he took care of him, it was within the scope of legal compliance. He just secretly broke off some hands that wanted to blackmail his son in a place where others could not see.
As a father, this makes sense, right?
"Let me call my dad and ask. He is probably waiting for my call."
"Well, remember to say hello to me."
"good."
After hastily ending the call with Li Chenglu, Liu Xin'an looked up at the time.
Dad must not have slept at this time, and domestic time is one hour behind here.
He opened WeChat and scrolled down the chat interface. It took him a long time to find the lotus avatar of his father.
Don't ask, just ask because my mother changed it. How dare your wife slave Liu Zhengjiang not listen?
Liu Xin'an didn't hesitate and directly pressed the video call.
After waiting for a short while, there was a "beep" sound, the video call was connected, and his father's face appeared on the screen.
"Dad, aren't you asleep yet?"
This is called asking questions knowingly.
Liu Zhengjiang nodded and put the phone aside. He didn't mind that the picture of himself on the screen was photographed at a strange angle.
"I checked your contract for you. There's nothing wrong with it."
"Oh! It's really stuck with Dad. I thought the job I got was gone."
"This is what you were talking about at home before, the job that has the opportunity to help Zhuxun?"
Liu Zhengjiang definitely doesn't understand such trendy things in the entertainment industry.
However, this matter related to his approved daughter-in-law, so Liu Zhengjiang still took it seriously.
"Yes, the artists who came to participate this time are Zhuhyun's teammates."
"What about Joohyun?"
Dad's rhetorical question made Liu Xin'an a little confused as to how to answer. This thing... it's not easy to explain.
"She is in a cold storage stage right now, so she definitely won't be able to take on jobs, and she definitely won't be able to take on domestic jobs."
"Then she can't come to this show this time?"
"Well... probably, her company doesn't know about our relationship yet. Without a suitable reason, she shouldn't be able to get along."
Liu Xinan recalled how Pei Zhuhyun complained to him at that time, and simply explained it to his father.
Liu Zhengjiang didn't say anything this time. He nodded, then looked down at the contract on the table.
"Okay, besides the contract, is there anything else?"
"No, Cheng Lu asked me to say hello to you. You and my mother should go to bed early."
"Um."
The video call was hung up immediately. What kind of polite words could there be between the father and son? They talked about the matter straightforwardly. There was no need to say those sour words that made people feel sick to their stomachs.
After this phone call, it is estimated that he will receive the news that he will go to bed early tomorrow.
Hmm... Speaking of which, now that the contract is over, does he still have to take the time to go back to China and sign the contract?
Can this kind of contract be signed remotely?
This involves Liu Xin'an's knowledge blind spot. After all, in China before, a trip to the Magic City was just a flight or a high-speed rail trip away.
Now...
It seems to be a matter of plane ride...
Liu Xin'an shook his head and pushed aside all these unnecessary worries.
If it really doesn't work, it's not too much trouble to just go back to the country. If you're diligent, it won't be a hassle to go back and forth on the same day.
He sent a message to Bae Zhuhyun to tell him that he was going to broadcast a small game for a while. After waiting for a while and getting no reply, he started preparing for the game to be broadcast later.
Of course, even if he decides to broadcast live, he will definitely not broadcast it for a long time.
With Bae Joo Hyun's character, if he knew that he was broadcasting until late at night, he would probably be so angry that he would drive to punish him late at night.
It's better to do this kind of big job less often.
It's not that everyone doesn't like watching it, it's just that Liu Xin'an feels very embarrassed.
Ah, it’s not that being scolded by Bae Zhuhyun was embarrassing, it’s that he felt it was embarrassing to be surprised...
He couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't be frightened if a small TV broke in during the live broadcast.
There is a high probability that everyone will jump up like last time.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! To a certain extent, he can actually be regarded as Liu Jingwei.
Liu Xin'an, who woke up early the next day, also received the news that the operation would go to bed early as expected.
The contract is here, Brother An Zi, when will you come back to sign the contract when you have time?
Liu Xin'an scratched his head when he saw this message. After thinking for a while, he entered a line of words.
I am abroad, can I sign remotely?
I have to ask the higher-ups. You should read the contract first. It is a hosting position, and it is responsible for the broadcasting of Xiaopo Station. Moreover, the higher-ups have plans to see your response this time. If the feedback is good, they may also plan to go to variety shows.
developed.
It’s not without reason that the living area accounts for such a large proportion of today’s small buildings.
Popularity means that the current audience likes to watch it.
Of course Xiaobozhan would be jealous of such a variety show that can make a lot of money.
In the past two years, Xiaopo Station has also made great efforts in this area. Just by supporting some up owners in the living area to co-produce variety shows, you can see the ambition of Xiaopo Station.
Not to mention, in recent years, more and more celebrities have joined the website... Many people are watching this website, which occupies a large part in the hearts of young people.
Liu Xin'an simply responded with a sleep-early emoji, and then began to prepare the live broadcast content.
Once his father said there was no problem with the contract, he could sign it with confidence. If he couldn't sign it remotely, he would take the time to fly back and sign it.
This isn't any trouble.
On the other side, Pei Zhuhyun finally gave up the idea of coming to Liu Xin'an's house to find Liu Xin'an the next day.
As she said before, she has been looking for Liu Xin'an too frequently in the past few days. Even if they are a couple in the passionate love stage, she cannot completely focus on Liu Xin'an.
Now is the critical period to adapt to living apart, and Bae Zhuhyun doesn't want to break the rules from her own side.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the good morning message Liu Xin'an sent her and the two messages that I am about to start broadcasting.
After checking the time, it was already sent more than half an hour ago. Pei Zhuxu squinted her eyes and replied, then threw the phone aside and continued to sleep peacefully.
A few minutes later, an uninvited guest lay on top of her.
The sudden weight on her body suddenly woke up Bae Zhuhyun, who had been sleeping soundly. After seeing Jiang Seulqi lying on her body, Bae Zhuhyun helplessly reached out and wiped her eyes to wake herself up.
When the tiredness dissipated a little, Bae Zhuhyun raised her legs slightly, trying to drive away the lazy Jiang Seulqi who was lying on top of her.
"Seulgi... you're so heavy, get off it quickly."
Jiang Seulqi pretended that she couldn't hear, and it felt good to lie on Bae Zhuhyun's body. Of course, it was more of a psychological effect. After all, Bae Zhuhyun was still covered with a thick quilt.
Rather than lying on Bae Zhuhyun's body, she was actually lying on the quilt more.
His words fell on deaf ears. Bae Zhuhyun took her legs out of the quilt and kicked Jiang Seulgi in annoyance, who was still lying motionless on top of her.
"Yeah, get up quickly."
This time Kang Seulgi reacted. She turned over and changed from lying on Bae Zhuhyun to lying on her back at the end of the bed.
When Pei Zhuxuan yawned and sat up from the bed, she put her chin in her hand, lay on her side at the end of the bed, and looked at Pei Zhuxuan curiously.
"Sister Zhuhyun, tell me honestly, did you think I was Liu Xin'an for a moment?"
Bae Zhuhyun is just sleepy, it doesn't mean she fell asleep.
How could she possibly tell Jiang Seulqi such a secret matter between her confidants?
Even if this person is her closest sister.
Besides, the feeling of Jiang Seulqi's weight on her body is completely different from that of Liu Xin'an's weight on her body.
"What are you talking about? Have you finished washing up?"
"Gee, tell me, I'm curious, what does that feel like?"
Jiang Seulgi is really a curious baby, so of course she is curious about this kind of thing.
No one asked before, so a group of people gathered together with red faces to watch some 18-ban movies.
But things are different now. The friend next to her who just woke up and looked soft is actually a mature woman who has actually taken that step!
She feels that Bae Zhuhyun's charm has increased a lot recently, and the mature charm revealed in every frown and smile was difficult for others to detect before.
Is this a real adult? So charming!
"What kind of thing?" Bae Zhuhyun leaned on the bedside and stared at Jiang Seulqi with squinted eyes.
Until Jiang Seulqi was excited and wanted to come over, she raised her feet to stop the other person from coming over.
"Just stay there. If you come over, I can't guarantee that I won't beat you up."
Subtext: Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask
But who is Kang Seulgi?
Can she be afraid of Pei Zhuhyun getting punched and beaten?
Physical pain is more unacceptable than gossiping. She thinks she shouldn't hesitate too much, right?
"Is it really as comfortable as you said, like entering a hot spring on a cold day?"
"Ah! How do I know!"
Bae Zhuhyun still couldn't help but blush. She pushed Jiang Seulqi at the end of the bed and pushed this nosy sister out of the bedroom with her bare feet.
Then the bedroom door closed with a bang, and she lay on the bed, lazily not wanting to see anyone.
As for Kang Seulgi...
"How is it? Have you asked?"
How could it be that Seulgi herself was the one who was curious about this kind of thing?
Ever since it was revealed that she and Liu Xin'an slept together that day, she had completely aroused the mood of these girls to study.
Ah, it’s just that what I’m learning is a bit crooked.
This group of people are very curious about physiological knowledge.
As for the teacher, she has naturally experienced a lot of Bae Joo Hyun.
"How could she say, I won't ask anymore. If you are curious, just go. No one would think of such a thing."
Jiang Seulqi's complaints also made several women nod their heads one after another.
Indeed, it would be strange if Bae Zhuhyun really wanted to share her feelings about this kind of thing...
Now that the show-offs are over, it’s time to get up and get ready to go to the company.
As the youngest sister, Kim Ye-rin unfortunately got the job of calling Bae Joo-hyun.
She cautiously came to the door of Pei Zhuhyun's room, knocked gently, and then shouted: "Sister Zhuhyun, wash up and get ready to go."
The door opened quickly, and Pei Zhuhyun lazily walked out of the bedroom, dressed in pajamas.
Pei Zhuxuan glanced at the sisters in front of him with cold eyes. When he saw that everyone was nervous, Pei Zhuxuan chuckled.
"Why are you all gathered here?"
"Passing by, passing by..."
After a simple wash, Bae Zhuhyun followed the members and got into the nanny car brought by Sungtae.
She didn't plan to go find Liu Xin'an today, so she simply didn't drive her car.
Besides, even if she had to go, she would drive there without delay when Cheng Taiqian brought her back.
Sitting next to the window, everyone was chatting about the Chinese variety show that Son Seungwan was about to participate in this time.
Of course, everyone knows very well what can and cannot be discussed.
Liu Xinan was absolutely forbidden to speak in front of Cheng Taiqian, but Cheng Taiqian knew about Pei Zhuxuan's previous two trips to China.
Siluke
"Hmm... If you want to go to Shanghai, the crab powder tofu is super delicious, I highly recommend it."
"Well, where can I eat it?"
"You can call Cheng Lu directly when the time comes, and she should take you there."
Although he was talking about Li Chenglu, Sun Shengwan knew that Bae Zhuhyun was actually referring to Liu Xinan.
Anyway, Sun Shengwan planned to have a feast this time, and she hoped that the sisters in the group chat would not block her and let her make these sisters angry.
And Kang Seulgi, who knew this person well, predicted this in advance.
"If you send delicious food to the group chat in the middle of the night, you will be dead."
"Why, sister Zhuhyun also sent it, and I didn't see what you did to sister Zhuhyun!"
"Sister Zhuhyun has brought us so many specialties and gifts, but you still want to do something evil to Sister Zhuhyun?"
The eldest sister still has her majesty. Bae Zhuhyun cooperated with Jiang Seulqi and glared at Son Seungwan, in exchange for a speechless expression from the latter.
After chatting along the way, the nanny van arrived at the company garage.
The five people walked into the practice room, and after simply tidying up their clothes and hair, everyone quickly got into practice.
After several times, the members were all sweating profusely.
Seeing the few people breathing heavily, Pei Zhuxuan took a look at the time on her phone and signaled for everyone to take a break.
After Pei Zhuxuan opened his mouth, everyone finally sat down and sat down, calming down their violent breathing.
A balance between work and rest is necessary.
Unknowingly, the time was approaching noon. Pei Zhuxuan took out her mobile phone and took a look at the surveillance camera, and found that Liu Xin'an was still live broadcasting seriously.
She found out the time Liu Xin'an told her in the morning that he would start the live broadcast, and after calculating it, she stood up.
No, she has to exercise her rights as a girlfriend.
After walking to the deserted stairwell, Pei Zhuxuan dialed Liu Xin'an's number. The call was quickly connected. Then, Liu Xin'an's slightly guilty voice made Pei Zhuxuan on the phone amused.
"Joohyuna, morning..."
"It's noon, my Mr. Liu Xin'an, do you know what time you started live broadcasting in the morning?"
"Eight o'clock."
"Ah! You actually have the nerve to say, where's breakfast? Where's lunch? You haven't eaten either, right?"
"Eat, I'll download it now, and then I'll go cook. I'll show you my results later. By the way, do you want to eat? I have a lot of time today, how about giving you a meal?"
It is not an easy task to deliver food to Bae Zhuhyun without being noticed. Liu Xin'an said this mainly because he wanted to divert the topic from his long-term live broadcast.
"Come on, do you think this is realistic?"
"Hmm...can't I just send it secretly?"
"No, you just have to eat what you have. Don't live broadcast all the time, but also pay attention to rest, you know?"
"yes."
"Well, be obedient." Pei Zhuxuan was very satisfied with Liu Xin'an's answer. She nodded and gave a few more instructions before hanging up the phone.
Putting the phone in his pocket, Bae Zhuhyun did not go back to the practice room immediately. Instead, he sat on the stairs in the stairwell with a headache.
From last night to now, she has been thinking about what reason she should find to convince Director Jin to let her go to China with Shengwan.
She didn't do it to appear in the spotlight, she just wanted to go along and have a look. It didn't matter if she concealed her identity throughout the whole process.
But even if she wanted to break her head, she couldn't think of a suitable reason.
She really hoped that a powerful girl like Li Chenglu would suddenly appear during the New Year and help her easily convince the company's top management~
But even if Li Chenglu showed up this time, he probably wouldn't be able to do it.
Pei Zhuxuan let out a long sigh, stood up resignedly, and gently patted the non-existent dust on her pants. This would make her feel more at ease.
Just as she was about to walk out of the stairwell and return to the practice room, the phone in her pocket vibrated again.
She took it out casually, and her eyes widened at the name displayed on it.
Immediately afterwards, she answered the phone in a panic, and then bowed to the empty stairwell, as if by doing so, the man on the other side of the phone could see her politeness and respect.
"uncle?"
"Well, Zhuhyuna, are you free now?"
The voice of Liu Zhengjiang, Liu Xin'an's father, slowly came from the phone, leaving Pei Zhuxuan a little confused.
