Xia Fan's heart moved and he instinctively looked around.
Everyone around is minding their own business, no one is paying attention here.
At this moment, the cameraman is still in the kitchen filming how "good boy" Wang Yuan "shows off" to his brothers and sisters. This is also one of the selling points of this episode, and he will not come out to film himself halfway.
"Could it be that Zhou Yongsheng, seeing that he was not good enough, deliberately asked Wang Xiaoming to come out to block the lobbyists?"
Soon, such thoughts flashed through Xia Fan¡¯s mind.
¡°After all, I came to Times Entertainment because of Wang Xiaoming¡¯s recommendation. Frankly speaking, the other party helped me a lot in the beginning.
But Xia Fan has his own bottom line, and some things are not so easy to compromise on.
At this moment, the song "The Past You" was played on the restaurant's radio, which was deliberately arranged by the program team for Xia Fan.
"The results haven't come out yet."
Xia Fan hesitated for a while, but decided to tell the truth frankly.
"Huh?"
Originally, Wang Xiaoming was tired from doing hygiene, half lying on a chair, and walking around for a while, but after hearing what Xia Fan said, he suddenly sat up straight and looked at the other party with some surprise.
"We haven't reached an agreement yet. I thought you had already renewed your contract!"
?Looking at his expression, it didn¡¯t look like he was acting, but he answered very naturally.
"Did I guess wrong?"
Such thoughts flashed through Xia Fan's heart like lightning.
He originally thought that Wang Xiaoming was taking advantage of this reality show to become a lobbyist for Times Entertainment. As a result, it seemed that without his knowledge, the contract renewal negotiations between himself and the company had reached a deadlock.
Looking at it like this, the other party really asked casually.
"Xiaoxia, are you not satisfied with the company's conditions?"
Wang Xiaoming looked confused, "I also know Mr. Zhou. According to my understanding, he will definitely attach great importance to talents like you."
He shook his head and asked curiously: "What happened? I remember there were rumors that the company was willing to invest in setting up your own company."
"That's true." Xia Fan nodded calmly.
"This is a good thing!" Wang Xiaoming became even more confused, "Why don't you agree?"
"There is a betting agreement. What if I lose the bet" Xia Fan had no choice but to reply, "Although I know this is unlikely."
"A gambling agreement?"
Wang Xiaoming shook his head and replied: "This is what's popular in the entertainment industry now. Many artists do this. When investing in setting up a personal company, you must sign a gambling agreement. Otherwise, there must be a return for whatever the company is trying to do."
"Although it is unlikely, if I lose, I will have to pay off my debt slowly throughout my life!"
Xia Fan shook his head, with a bitter taste in the corner of his mouth.
Of course he was pretending on purpose.
"I came here in the same way. Although there are some bumps in the road, it is best to succeed. You should have seen it." Wang Xiaoming talked eloquently.
"I know that." Xia Fan nodded indifferently.
The other party is not only a top-tier artist, but also a capital investor. The main reason is that after he established the company, he also completed a gambling agreement with Times Entertainment.
"But there are also many people who have failed. I can't rule out this possibility." Xia Fan shook his head.
"This, sometimes wealth can be found in danger. If"
Wang Xiaoming hesitated for a while, but decided to tell the truth frankly, "I think Chen Shicheng is familiar with you. If the company is willing to invest in him to establish a new company and sign a gambling agreement, he may leave his job and change jobs."
"Because he felt that he was not taken seriously, and Yida Group was willing to invest in him, he decided to change jobs. But he was lucky. The first movie was a success, but I think Xiaoxia, your It¡¯s a great contribution.¡±
They are all experienced professionals. Wang Xiaoming flattered Xia Fan inadvertently. Such words would make the other party feel very comfortable.
However, Xia Fan also understands that this is just a scene. He knows very well that in the movie version of "Yanjing Love Story", even if the male lead is not him, it will have some impact on the box office. Even if there is a decline, it will still be a very successful movie. Movie.
The reason why Xia Fan is now very repulsive about contract renewal is because he hates this kind of gambling agreement.
Although he had played a song with the senior management of his old club in "Lang Ge" when he first debuted, the price he paid at that time was just to hand over the copyright of "What Kind of Man", and he could bear such a loss.
If he loses this gambling agreement, heI have to work for Times Entertainment for the rest of my life and I will be in debt.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of ten, you lose nine times. It¡¯s not like you are in a dilemma with no way out, so why take this risk?
Although it is said that if the bet fails, the company will also suffer losses, but the entertainment industry of the times can be tolerated, while Xia Fan may be doomed once he loses.
¡°Moreover, Times Entertainment¡¯s performance has been mediocre in recent years, with most of the movies it invested in losing money. Therefore, when preparing to sign a gambling agreement with Xia Fan, they vaguely regarded this as a life-saving straw.
If you make a profit, you can certainly get huge rewards, but if you lose, everyone's losses will be huge.
There is no need for Xia Fan to bet the rest of his life on this company.
"Brother Xiaoming, I don't want to bet" Xia Fan curled his lips, "If you don't want to bet, it's better not to bet. I emphasize important things three times."
"I am a good socialist young man and a high-quality idol. I must set a good example to young people and stay away from gambling!"
He suddenly said with a smile.
"Ah this" Wang Xiaoming put away his evil smile and frowned.
Does he think there is a relationship between the two?
Although he admitted that the gambling agreement also contained gambling elements, no matter how he analyzed it, Xia Fan had a high probability of winning, and he didn't know why this young man was so repelled by the word "gambling."
Isn¡¯t this how everyone plays the capital game in the entertainment industry?
"Xiaoxia, are you planning to set up your own studio and work alone after the contract expires?" After thinking for a while, Wang Xiaoming still asked with complicated emotions.
"I don't want to live a life of walking on thin ice, just keep it simple." Xia Fan sighed without hiding his words.
Wang Xiaoming nodded complicatedly.
Frankly speaking, I was living on thin ice during that period. Thinking about it now, I still remember it deeply. Fortunately, I succeeded. Now I have achieved financial freedom and will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life.
He knew that Xia Fan had made up his mind to set up a personal studio after the expiration of the contract and break away from the control of Times Entertainment.
¡°In fact, there is one thing that Xia Fan has not disclosed, and that is that this gambling agreement is based on a false valuation in the capital game. If it succeeds, it will be invincible to cut leeks in the stock market.
But the country¡¯s policies will change at any time. For example, after the incident involving Fan Jiuyi, it triggered a series of chain reactions.
