I'm so poor, I pretend

This extended Maybach is naturally not Shu Jiabao's own.

Although there is indeed such a car parked there in the garage at home and no one has driven it for a long time, but the person is shooting in another place, and it is so far away from City A, it is impossible to move the one at home.

So she contacted the local 4S car dealer last night and rented it specially.

As for the rental price...

In Shu Jiabao's view, the money he spent was not comparable to the expected effect at all.

Nowadays, the network is developed and the speed of information dissemination is very fast. What happened at the hotel entrance in the morning has been related to the Internet in less than 10 minutes.

At that time, there were more than one reporter and media present. Everyone knew that the news that was fermented today was very head-shattering, so they turned on their mobile phones/computers and started editing relevant news when they were still on the way back. They refused to lag behind others.

In less than half an hour, the bundled trending searches for "Flying Dragon Media" and "Yang Cheng" on the Weibo platform with the largest traffic have reached the top five, and the number of hits has skyrocketed.

Shu Jiabao made a rough calculation for the publicity department of their company to calculate the advertising fee needed to buy this hot search headline. Compared with the money saved, the cost of renting a car and renting a person is negligible.

In this way, they have played a strong advertisement for their new company. Generally speaking, Shu Jiabao, the boss, is quite satisfied.

Including what she said to Yang Cheng when she stood on the steps at the end, it sounded witty and interesting, not at all contrived, and it looked like it was intentional, which attracted a lot of fans among netizens who eat melons.

Speaking of which, there are quite a few netizens who @朱嘉宝’s current agency under the relevant Weibo, laughing at why they don’t treat their artists better.

Because of the entertainment turmoil this time, Shu Jiabao gained a new nickname from netizens on the Internet: "Miss Fan".

Van of Versailles.

However, there are people who hold various opinions on the Internet. Of course, there are also people who say that Shu Jiabao deliberately bulldozed her current agency in order to advertise her company.

Shu Jiabao has seen all these.

Instead of being angry, she aroused some new thinking because of these remarks.

She began to think, is it too unconvincing to poach other people's corners everywhere but not sign a contract with her own company?

To put it more simply, you are selling this product at home, and when you are the boss, instead of buying your own product, you buy the opposite company’s product when you are out.

So taking advantage of this public opinion turmoil, Shu Jiabao simply made a decision.

She applied to the brokerage company to terminate the contract.

In this regard, Shu Jiabao also specifically asked Shen Yi about the amount of compensation for breach of contract.

—— Taking advantage of the fact that she has not signed a contract for a long time, her coffee position is not high, the company has not invested much in her, and her income is not much, the liquidated damages can be minimized... Shu Jiabao made a rough estimate, Strictly written according to each item in the contract, it should be around two to three million yuan.

Such a loss was within the range she could bear.

Of course, this is what she expected.

After the brokerage company received the letter of understanding, it was like a cat whose tail was suddenly stepped on. They said they wanted to keep the person and continue to train.

After all, anyone who has eyes can tell that Shu Jiabao will grow up in a short time and become a golden cash cow, and he is also a cash cow with a strong background, no one dares to touch him or provoke him.

However, Shu Jiabao's determination to leave was very firm. Although the rejection of the brokerage company was very euphemistic, it was ultimately an ugly mess.

So after the friendly negotiations between the two parties failed, the brokerage company simply sued him in court. They rejected the 300 million compensation proposed by Shu Jiabao, and demanded to add all kinds of messy fees according to the contract. In the end, the total amount came out to be as much as 3000 million.

3000 million is not much for the Shu family and the Shu Group.

If Shu Minghao is willing, he only needs to say a word to show it.

To put it bluntly, his daily income is much more than the 3000 million.

Even Shu Jiabao could solve this number with the private money she had accumulated since she was an adult, but she was not willing to just bow to the brokerage company, she just thought it was blackmail.

Shu Jiabao took a rough look at how the other party's fee of more than 3000 million yuan came from. While watching, he couldn't hold back his curse words.

She couldn't help but began to imagine that if she was just an ordinary artist, the blood from her body would be sucked dry by this brokerage company.

Facing such oppression, she would definitely spend it with the other party to the end.

So a protracted lawsuit kicked off like this, and Shu Jiabao was also mentally prepared for a protracted war.

But fortunately, she has a dedicated lawyer to take care of all this, and she just needs to wait patiently and work as usual.

Because of the contract termination lawsuit with the brokerage company, many commercials and TV dramas that were originally helped by the company were quietly assigned to other artists.

These were all things that Shu Jiabao had already anticipated when he first made this decision.

There are gains and losses in many things, but thinking about the termination of the contract, it is something that must be done sooner or later. It is impossible for her to sign a contract with another agency for up to five years while running a company by herself.

Suddenly lost a large number of film and television cooperation and commercial shooting, the originally tight schedule in the second half of the year suddenly became free.

The assistant who was originally dialed down was also taken back again. Xiaoyun was still in a complicated mood when he left, as if he didn't expect that his career as an assistant with Shu Jiabao would be so short.

Short to but only a few months.

During the transitional period from spring to summer this year, Shu Jiabao became popular because of "Fairy and Demon", and then quickly fell silent because of the turmoil of contract termination.

The outside world said that she was just a flash in the pan, a glimpse, and she was only stunned for a short period of time.

Everyone was sighing for her behavior of not cherishing her feathers, but the person concerned didn't care at all.

Although she lost the resources she had saved before, she also gained freedom. The loss of advertising and film and television resources from her previous agency did not mean that she would be silenced from the entertainment industry and be refrigerated.

During the time when he was not in front of the public, Shu Jiabao devoted himself wholeheartedly to the company's affairs.

For example, the preparations for the online drama project that were previously decided have been basically completed, and we only need to wait for the fixed angle and start-up.

There are more than one, because the funds on hand are abundant and the investment cost of online dramas is not high, so "Feilong Media" has prepared a total of three online dramas. In addition to counting their own company's artists as the main actors, other The characters are also carefully selected.

This is the first time that Shu Jiabao has been staring at a project that has been settled step by step, so she still has great expectations for these web dramas.

Therefore, she is also extra cautious about the casting, and does not allow the slightest mistake.

Those who are not good at acting, those who have bad deeds, and those who are out of connections, all of them will be brushed off.

So much so that after the final list came out, every name made her feel very unfamiliar.

In response to this phenomenon, Shu Jiabao tactfully mentioned to Wang Jian'an: "Is our lineup a little too simple, don't we need to invite famous actors over?"

Although it is said that these few online dramas focus on the plot and quality, but the whole staff is confused, which is not conducive to publicity.

"It would be great if there are popular movie stars, but will popular artists come?" Wang Jian'an said that this idea is good, but it doesn't work, "and the current salary of first-line artists is too high. gone."

"Our company has just started, and it is unlikely that we will be able to spend so much money on film remuneration."

The remuneration of those well-known stars is seven figures per episode, so the money paid for an entire online drama may be enough to make a small production again, Wang Jian'an feels very inappropriate.

Why did you want to make a web drama at that time?

It is because the cost is small, the risk is low, and the rate of return may be higher than expected.

Going back and inviting those popular movie stars over now would be contrary to the original intention.

Another one, even if they want to invite many people, they may not be willing to come.

"Then why not just invite someone who is popular and doesn't cost much?" After hearing Wang Jian'an's words, Shu Jiabao almost blurted out.

After she said these words, several executives who participated in the discussion of the web drama project fell silent, and after a while, someone cautiously spoke——

"Mr. Shu, there is no such person in the entertainment industry, right?"

"If there is such a person, isn't it a fool?"

…………

Is there such a person in the entertainment industry?

It really doesn't.

But Shu Jiabao scoured his social circle carefully, and found that there was someone who could use his connections to make a guest appearance.

Jiang Keran is a ready-made candidate who meets all their conditions and psychological expectations. The most important thing is...

"Based on the relationship between the two of us, my career has just started, won't you come and support me?"

"You are too mean!"

That's what she said on the phone, but Jiang Keran showed some hesitation and didn't immediately agree.

But already having such an idea, Shu Jiabao saw that the other party was still hesitant, so he bought a plane ticket the next day and went to the city where Jiang Keran is now.

Then he generously invited her out and invited her to dinner.

"You want me to do a free job for you, and now you want me to treat you to dinner, Shu Jiabao, Shu Jiabao, how can there be such a good thing in the world, do you think I'm a fool outside!" Jiang Keran didn't expect someone to kill him directly. closed the door.

At the dinner table, she wasn't polite to Shu Jiabao at all, and she just scolded someone when she caught her. The posture was the same as when she scolded the leading actor in the crew.

But the difference is that even after being scolded, Shu Jiabao still remained calm and very close to Jiang Keran.

"Jiang Keran, listen to what you are saying..."

"How can I feel that you are the kind of fool outside?"

"If you talk about yourself like that again, I'm going to be angry!"

You are not an ordinary fool, you are a cute little fool who is rare in the world with a lot of money.

—— she slandered in her heart.

On the surface, he still looked emotional: "When I first mentioned this proposal, the people under me also said the same thing, they said how could there be such a super popular star in the entertainment industry to come to us as a guest You don’t charge money?”

"I said yes, but they didn't believe it."

"So I came to you today, and I want you to prove it to me."

"Actually, they don't believe it, and it's normal. After all, they don't know how deep our friendship is." Speaking of this, Shu Jiabao felt a little dry. She licked her dry lips and took the water glass to her mouth. Sent a sip of water.

While she was drinking water, Jiang Keran finally had time to interject a sentence.

"What friendship do we have?" she asked.

Confused and dazed, he seemed to have no idea what Shu Jiabao was talking about.

She and Shu Jiabao... did have "grievances" when they were young, but their friendship really isn't that deep.

Did she lose her memory, or did Shu Jiabao lose her mind?

Jiang Keran was still in a constant state of doubt, so Shu Jiabao took up the conversation again.

"We have a lot of friendship, and you actually ask me this kind of question??" Before she could swallow the water in her mouth, when she heard Jiang Keran say such words, an injured look immediately appeared on her face. Look, "We grew up together since we were young, isn't this friendship deep?"

——We've known each other since we were young, although we only meet each other a few times a year, but it's not wrong to insist on "fa Xiao". After all, her name has indeed been accompanied by Jiang Keran since he grew up.

"My father and your father are still friends for many years, and the two families can be regarded as friends in the past. Isn't the relationship between the two generations close enough?"

——When there were business cooperation in the early years, she would indeed visit each other during the New Year and holidays, and she did call Jiang Keran's father "uncle", so it is not a lie to say that.

"Before you helped me out in the film crew, I remembered it in my heart. I have long regarded you as my sister, but you said such a thing today!"

Sentence after sentence, Jiang Keran felt a little suspicious of himself.

Is it because she is so heartless that she doesn't feel the other party's heart at all?

Did their family have such a good relationship with the Shu family?

Jiang Keran has never cared much about the relationship between the family, but the only thing that is certain is that they do have contacts with the Shu family.

Hearing Shu Jiabao speak so confidently now, he subconsciously felt that what the other party said was true.

Thinking of this, she fell into self-blame and guilt for a moment, and she wanted to refute herself a few words, explaining that this is not the case, but Shu Jiabao's connection between the previous sentence and the next sentence was too close, which made her feel completely helpless. Chance to chime in.

So he could only sit there dryly, watching Shu Jiabao perform the whole one-man show by himself.

The emotional changes in Shu Jiabao's body, as well as the change in tone, seemed to be completely genuine.

Jiang Keran is not Shen Yi, he will put on a talent show for you without knowing how the other party behaves, so it is easy to believe it is true.

But at this time, Shu Jiabao was still thinking of retreating, and he sold out miserably.

"It seems that I am being passionate." Sitting on the seat, Jiang Keran saw Shu Jiabao, who was sitting opposite him, shaking his head with a dejected look on his face, "I was thinking that there was something wrong with the friendship between the two of us." Needless to say, you are willing to help me, but I didn't expect..."

Shu Jiabao was acting, and he was already a little into the drama.

Even his voice was a little choked up.

The waiter who happened to pass by couldn't help but look at them twice more, as if he wanted to gossip but didn't dare to stop longer.

Jiang Keran was most afraid of girls crying.

Although she usually looks fierce and scolds everyone, most of the time she only treats boys. Seeing that Shu Jiabao is about to cry now, she panicked: "I..."

"never mind."

"That's it, it turns out our friendship is so fragile."

Shu Jiabao directly interrupted the other party.

Seeing that Jiang Keran was playing tricks, she increased the fire, and she stood up directly from her seat, making it look like she was about to leave.

Sure enough, the other party quickly asked her to stay.

Jiang Keran: "Can't I help you?"

………………

After all the roles for the web drama shooting are finalized, it is time to start shooting.

Under Shu Jiabao's lobbying, Jiang Keran agreed to appear in the web dramas produced by their company at a very low price, as the heroine of one of them, and as a guest star in the other two. .

In order to repay the other party's "poverty alleviation", Shu Jiabao praised the other party on the Internet for a month, without repeating the same thing every day.

I feel embarrassed to make Miss Jiang so smug.

The start time of the web drama is set in the golden autumn season of September. The hot summer has finally passed, and the temperature of the weather has gradually dropped and cooled down.

At the same time, the breach of contract case, which has been being followed up, ushered in the first trial not long after.

Shu Jiabao, the defendant, must be present at the trial.

Her current attorney was found by Wang Jian'an for her. I heard that she is a powerful character, but she did not expect to be suppressed by the plaintiff's lawyer after going to court. After two hours, she, the "defendant", sat I just felt suffocated.

In the final judgment of the first trial, her former brokerage company actually won the case, but the judge was still a little discerning, and saw that the amount of 3000 million was really unreasonable, so he lowered the amount of compensation to 500 million.

But even so, Shu Jiabao still felt like being beaten with a sack.

The mute eats Coptis chinensis, and can't tell the pain.

What was even more exasperating was that after the court ended, people on both sides met on the steps at the gate of the court.

After the opponent won the case, his arrogance suddenly became much more arrogant.

Seeing Shu Jiabao coming out from the gate of the court, they deliberately stopped their departure and waited for her.

Immediately afterwards, there was a long burst of domineering ridicule——

"Shu Jiabao, so what if you are the eldest lady of the Shu Group?"

"I would like to advise you, don't waste time continuing to appeal. It is you who broke the contract first, and it doesn't matter who you are in front of the law. Lose money early and save everyone's time."

"Ten million is just a word to your father, why bother to refuse to give it?"

"After losing money, everyone is safe and sound, and it will be easy to talk when we meet in the circle in the future."

Sentence after sentence, the arrogance was very arrogant, and the appearance of the villain's success made people want to step on this person's face so hard.

But after hearing these words, Shu Jiabao did not refute for the first time. She only took a deep look at the other party, and then walked away with the lawyer.

But in the eyes of the other party, it was like fleeing in despair.

After leaving the court, Shu Jiabao didn't go back to her small company. She sent away the lawyers who followed her, and then went to the headquarters building of the Shu Group to find her father.

Secretary Lin received a call from Shu Jiabao, and personally came down to take her to Shu Minghao's office.

Shu Jiabao just waited bored in the chairman's office for more than half an hour. When Shu Minghao opened the door and came in, she was leaning on the boss chair in front of the desk and playing with her mobile phone.

The sullen look makes people feel depressed when they see it.

"I heard that you lost the trial of the case where you terminated the contract?" Shu Minghao walked in, took off his coat, and joked with his daughter with a smile.

"Yes." Speaking of this, Shu Jiabao felt a little discouraged. This is also the purpose of her coming here today to find Shu Minghao, "Father, you have a team of lawyers with so many people under your command, otherwise you will share one with me..."

She clenched her fist tightly, gritted her teeth and said, "Let me appeal to the second trial and beat them back!"

"The lawyer I found myself is really not good."

He said it nicely, but when he went to court, he was dismissed like a grandson.

Thinking of this, she just felt too aggrieved.

If Shen Yizai, would it be the turn of these second-rate lawyers to bully her? !

Does she still need to come over to her father to help her get ahead? ?

But unfortunately, Shen Yi was absent.

She could only settle for the next best thing and come to beg her old father.

"I can give you a lawyer. If you had come to me earlier, you wouldn't have fallen to this level...Mr. Shu." Shu Minghao still laughed at his daughter without the slightest sympathy, and even joked about "Mr. Shu" one by one. , "You said which one you want to help you with the lawsuit, I will ask Secretary Lin to send it to you."

"Your lawyer, how do I know who is better?" Shu Jiabao narrowed his eyes, and he didn't want to bother with this matter anymore, "You can just send me someone with a better level, as long as you can win. I trust your eyes."

As she spoke, she tapped her toes and made the chair turn in circles.

But Shu Minghao disagreed with his daughter's "childish" remarks.

He shook his head: "There is a certain degree of uncertainty in a lawsuit, and there is nothing that can be won."

As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to remember something: "Speaking of which, I hired a new lawyer to join the team not long ago, and today should be the day she comes to report."

Shu Jiabao still sat there and listened to each sentence, with a look of indifference, apparently not taking her father's words seriously.

But it didn't prevent Shu Minghao from continuing to talk on his own——

"Well……"

"Let me see," Shu Minghao said, raising the watch on his wrist and looking at it, "It's about half an hour away, Mr. Shu, would you like to sit with me for a while and talk to me later?" Shall I go and see for myself?"

"If you are satisfied, you can take it directly."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shu Jiabao stood up from the chair, with a look of no interest: "It's not a blind date, lawyers, can you just take a look and take it away if you are satisfied?"

It's not their Shen Yi!

"I won't go, you go by yourself."

"I have something to do in a while."

With a few words, Shu Jiabao directly rejected her father's invitation without giving him any face.

"Really not going?" Hearing what she said, Shu Minghao suddenly laughed, "You said this yourself, don't regret it later and ask me for someone with a shy face."

Although Shu Jiabao didn't know what the other party was laughing at, he didn't intend to change his mind.

"Don't go."

She answered firmly, but she was very disdainful in her heart.

--joke!I can still ask you for someone with a shy face?

The author has something to say:

Shu Bao: Does not exist!
