star shift

Eight o'clock, coffee shop.

There was not much business in the store during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so Pei Shan followed suit and sat by the window, waiting for Guan Ligeng to explain his purpose.

Unexpectedly, the other party just pointed at the moon and talked for a while about what the Mid-Autumn Festival in Ningcheng looked like, and how much Tang Liyan liked to celebrate festivals and birthdays when he was a child.

"Mr. Guan, you are very busy. If you have something to say, just say it. It will save your time and I can go back for the holidays." Pei Shan took over the conversation at the right time, looking back with neither humility nor condescension.

Guan Ligeng was stunned for a moment, probably because he didn't expect him to be beaten back, and his face was not very good-looking, "I wanted to save some face, but since you said so, I won't play tricks."

He paused, took out a stack of newspapers, tapped the table and said, "I know everything about speech."

"Which one?" Pei Shan scratched the little mole on his nose unintentionally, "If it's news, he told me. Thank you for your help."

"You really... showed me what shamelessness is." Guan Ligeng frowned, and said contemptuously, "I'm not helping, I'm just afraid that putting Yanyan's name with you will hurt him. "

Pei Shan lowered his head, hiding his slightly frowning brow and pursed mouth, resting his slender index finger on his forehead, curling a few strands of hair, and did not speak.

Guan Ligeng didn't know what he was thinking, he could only see the middle-length curly hair falling down, covering his pretty face.But in Guan Ligeng's eyes, this beauty is sinful and dissolute.

"We don't need to beat around the bush anymore, you can set a price for how much you want." Guan Ligeng threw the file bag away, his eyes were frighteningly heavy.

No matter how much Pei Shan tried to build his mind, he still couldn't hold back, and smiled impolitely, "Sorry, I didn't mean to laugh at you. I just think this line is really weird."

Seeing the puzzled and angry expression on the other side, Pei Shan continued: "But now I am mentally prepared, if you write a check next time and say something like 'give you 500 million to leave my brother', I will not Feel weird."

The person on the other side was obviously pissed off, clenched his fist, and it took a while before he let go.

"Pei Shan, let me tell you, you can't just wait for Yanyan to be reported. You can submit materials to prove yourself. The key ruler is still in the committee!" Guan Ligeng said aggressively, suppressing his voice, "the committee has My classmate. If you are sensible and leave him alone, I can get him out of danger quickly."

"Mr. Guan, I now understand why Liyan would rather come to such a far place than stay by your side." Pei Shan pushed his hair behind his ears, showing serious and calm eyes, "You still think , money and connections can buy privileges and even lives, right?"

"Do you dare to speak to me in such a tone?"

"Why don't you dare?" Pei Shan laughed angrily, leaned back, his bangs were pushed back, "I really didn't expect that after what happened to Mr. Li, instead of regretting, you would continue to slander him , even after so many years, still use your set of thinking to solve all 'troubles'."

"Li Feng?" The name obviously stepped on Guan Ligeng's sore foot, causing him to slam the table, "Who told you that? That boy Tang Liyan?" , only that fool believes it! What good does he think Li Feng is?"

"President Guan!" Pei Shan seldom got angry, his delicate nose fluttered slightly because of the anger, "The dead are the worst, so you should say a few words less."

Guan Ligeng loosened his tie in anger, "In short, you don't agree, right?"

Pei Shan shook his head, and said helplessly, "Can you have some confidence in your brother? He walks upright and stands upright, and the drug rule is impossible; as for beating someone, there is a reason for it, but if you really want to be punished , He certainly doesn’t want to escape in an illegal way.”

Guan Ligeng raised his eyebrows disdainfully, "In the end, you still think you don't have enough weight! Adding a supporting announcement for your drama, is it enough?"

Seeing that no one answered, Guan Ligeng thought that the temptation had worked, and continued, "I have cooperated with the Bureau of Culture and Tourism and the theater. If you agree, I can make you the most popular in the city this year."

"Thank you, no need." Pei Shan said with a straight face.

"No need? Heh, have you paid back your money now?" Guan Ligeng sneered, "I just checked the ticketing website, there are still a lot of empty seats, right? The attendance rate is not good, is your partner going to lose all his money? At that time, can the show's tour continue?"

Pei Shan didn't want to get entangled any longer, shook his head with a sneer, then stood up, and said condescendingly: "Mr. Guan, you always have no confidence in everything. Whether it's your own brother, this market, or human nature .”

With that said, he got up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Guan Ligeng.

The young entrepreneur in a suit and leather shoes also stood up slowly at this time, "Since you are so confident, why don't you see what your partner is talking about?"

Pei Shan's heart was suddenly clenched, and he turned around vigilantly, "What do you mean?"

"It seems that you really don't care much about financial matters—" Guan Ligeng smiled, "The director may not know our relationship. The biggest investor in "Long Summer" is my subsidiary company. "

Pei Shan took a deep breath, put his hands on the corner of the table, "What do you want to do?"

"What can I do? It's just doing things according to the contract. When the director changed venues and props, the cost doubled. I added funds without saying a word. The only requirement is attendance rate-look at the current ticketing situation. Not ideal. At that time, the director will have to pay more than 01:30." Guan Ligeng took a sip of his coffee slowly.

The deer-like eyes narrowed slightly, Pei Shan sneered, "Why, Mr. Guan is so bored that he wants to spend money to watch jokes?"

"That's not the case. In fact, I didn't know about it when the company saw this drama. I found out after I found you." Guan Ligeng smiled, "Such a coincidence, of course we can't miss it. Since If Shi Pei wants to play, then I will let him play and see what else he can mortgage by then."

"Then what does this have to do with me and Liyan?"

"If you leave Yanyan, even if the premiere is not good, I can cancel the compensation clause in the contract. Shi Pei doesn't need to lose a penny."

"Sounds good. What if I don't say yes?"

"No..." Guan Ligeng thought for a while, and finally just shook his head with a smile, his tone of mockery was obvious, "To be honest, with your current attendance rate, no investor would be willing to follow the next one. The tour is basically It’s going to be for naught.”

After Guan Ligeng finished speaking, he was afraid that the consequences would not be serious enough, so he deliberately emphasized, "I just finished talking with the Bureau of Culture and Tourism about the civil affairs joint venture cultural project. The city has already taken a fancy to your drama, and they will wait for the premiere. Buy copyright at a low price."

Pei Shan sneered, "Tickets are only opened today, and it's pretty good to be able to reach the current ratio on the first day."

After all, the media and evaluation platforms haven't released their articles yet. What Pei Shanyuan imagined was that the sales situation would be much better next month.

Guan Ligeng, who works in the cultural industry, is too familiar with these things, "Are you thinking of making efforts in the later stage? It's unlikely. The play starring your old classmate will be scheduled next week. Imagine if the next door in the same period is "Laughing Mr. Mian", what chance do you have to guarantee attendance?"

"Mr. Smiling Face" is starring Lu Qiubei, the president of the N Drama Club and a well-known movie star. The theme is a light comedy. The original work has a certain fan base. The housekeeper's huge investment is almost a blockbuster reservation for the autumn theater.In normal times, theaters, especially small theaters, will tend to line up these plays to avoid a certain show that suffers too much loss, which is not good for the operation of the theater.

Pei Shan pinched the fabric by his side, but he still tried to remain calm.The eyebrows were raised slightly, and the blush on the corners of the lips curved, "Mr. Guan has a lot of projects in his hands. "Mr. Smiling Face" is also produced by you? You want it to be performed next month, you think too highly of me."

"After all, it's Mr. Huai Zhang, you have to give yourself enough face."

"It stands to reason that scheduling and publicity matters should be dominated by the troupe or the theater. Even if you have a lot of money, you don't have that much say."

"Yes, indeed." Guan Ligeng sneered, "Rentuan Fang is not a fool either. Between competing peers and sponsors, who do you think they will choose?"

Pei Shan couldn't think too much for a while, lowered his eyes, put away the smile he had been pretending all night.

The other party seemed to see his hesitation and worry, and said quite generously: "Don't worry, I'll give you half a day to think it through. It's about Yanyan's work and yours. Good, good, think, think."
