Relying on Liang

The first snowfall stopped in less than two hours, and only a thin layer of snow piled up on the branches, treetops and road.The sky is still very cloudy, maybe after a day and a half, there will be a second snowfall.

Coming out of the shooting range, Zhong Yunqing and Zhao Quan continued as usual. Zhao Quan went back to Thunder Headquarters first, and Zhong Er went to Bird Records to meet up with his friends.Today is Sunday, but in the entertainment industry, most artists don't have the concept of a weekend off, especially for Order of the Phoenix, which has been busy preparing for their live performances recently.

After arriving in Asuka, the manager Wu Wei informed them that the performance venue had been negotiated, and a series of work including stage design and construction would start immediately, and it was estimated that the preparations would be completed in about a week.After that, all members of the Order of the Phoenix can go to the scene for on-site rehearsal.

"At that time, if the details still need to be adjusted, we will arrange to make revisions. After all, the time is relatively tight." Wu Wei explained to Zhong Yunqing and other team members in detail while looking at the pad in her hand.As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up the cup when her phone buzzed and vibrated again. Wu Wei raised her hand to signal the Order of the Phoenix to wait a while, then stood up and went to the other side of the meeting room to answer the phone.

Seeing that she was so busy that she didn't even have time to drink her saliva, she wished she could have a few more hands. As expected, every mountain is still high. Compared with Zhong Er and the others, they all felt that apart from the increased amount of practice, they who have been retreating recently are not so busy It's nothing.

A live concert is far from as simple as imagined.Just the preparatory work, from selecting the venue, negotiating and signing various contracts and agreements with relevant persons in charge of each link, to stage construction, lighting, audio adjustment, etc., there are a lot of trivial and complicated matters that need to be planned and coordinated.At the same time as this is going on, it is necessary to contact the major media for external publicity, arrange ticket sales, etc. There are too many places that need to be managed.

After manager Wu Wei answered the phone, the discussion about the live performance of the Order of the Phoenix came to an end. She asked her assistant Zhou Beibei to bring the financial statements, and announced the single "Red Dust" and the double album "Golden Stone Earth Leather" to Zhong Yunqing and the others. And the sales revenue of "Simu Paozhu" last month.

When the record contract was first signed, the conditions of the contract drawn up by Lei Zhen were extremely generous and loose, and the agreed income was divided into [-] to [-]%.Of the [-]% that Thunder Entertainment took, Wu Wei and Mu Liancheng's [-]% were included, as well as the salaries paid to assistant Zhou Beibei, travel drivers and other related staff.The six members of the Order of the Phoenix each account for [-]%.

Stars in the entertainment industry seem to have unlimited beauty on the surface, but for some idol artists and fledgling newcomers who rely on their youth, more than half of their income will be taken by the company and agent, and the remaining part may not be able to be paid. If you want to keep the scenery and ostentation, you need a lot of money to spend.

Thunder Entertainment, which has the most abundant resources in the industry, has always treated its artists kindly, while some other celebrity management companies, it is not uncommon for newcomers to offer signing conditions of [-]% to [-]%, or even [-]%.

Leaving aside the follow-up sales of the debut single "Red Dust" this time, Light Phoenix Club's double-album first month's paid online downloads and physical disc benefits, the [-]% shared to each member is still very considerable number.

"It's developed, it's developed!"

The small eyes of the members of the group pigeons were almost blind, and they kissed the numbers on the report.Before signing a contract with Lei Ting, they had been living poorly for a long time. All the members of the Order of the Phoenix were all money addicts. The only difference was that some had milder symptoms, and some had completely given up treatment.

"It's still the old rule. After the company's financial department settles the settlement, the money has been transferred directly to your bank account. Please pay attention to check." On financial issues, Wu Wei, who has always been very businesslike, finished explaining to the people in front of her with a smile on her face. It's not surprising that he behaved like crazy.

"Little ones, let's celebrate with hot pot tonight, and I'll treat you to the leader!"

A group of people were still having fun, so Zhong Er slapped the table proudly and made a decision.Before lunch started, he was thinking about dinner first, but making hot pot in winter is really a great joy in life, and it is rare that he doesn't even complain about the poisonous corn.Seeing that the group members around him readily agreed, Zhong Xiaoer turned his head again, with bright eyes, and said to Wu Wei and Zhou Beibei who were opposite, "Sister Wu, Beibei, you come too, there are so many people to make it lively!"

Little assistant Zhou Beibei often eats and lives with a group of people, so of course it's no problem.

Wu Wei is a hard-working third lady in her daily work, and she is also very strict with her subordinates. Over the years, due to various reasons, although her network is extensive, there are not many people who can truly be called close friends.When she is not busy, she basically solves the problem of eating by herself. Like hot pot, a group of people must gather together to eat food that feels good. Wu Wei, a native of Xichuan who is addicted to spicy food, I can't remember how long I haven't eaten.

Although she is exquisite, shrewd and capable at work, but in private, she withdraws her strong woman side. Wu Wei is actually a very easy-going person.Invited by Zhong Er, she looked at the schedule on the pad in her hand, and found that there was indeed no plan for tonight, so she smiled and nodded in agreement: "No problem. I have eaten with you. I know there is a restaurant in the north of the city. The boss and I are from the same township, and they cook authentic Xichuan hotpot."

"Wow! Sister Wu, so you are from Xichuan?"

As soon as Wu Wei finished speaking, Zhong Xiaoer and Zhou Beibei all showed surprise.It's no wonder that Wu Wei's Mandarin is very standard, without any accent, and Huaguo has a vast territory, so it's really hard for people to guess where she is from if she doesn't speak it.

A group of people started asking questions in a hurry, and the topic was completely misleading along the way. Fortunately, the work arrangements have been explained, and a few small talk at this time is not harmful.

"Looks like I found the right person, Sister Wu, what's the name of that hot pot restaurant?" After hearing Wu Wei's introduction, Zhong Er happily took out his mobile phone, ready to ask Lei Zhen for the name of the restaurant. go together.If there are good things, Erhuo will always think of Lei Zhen's share.

"The name of the restaurant is 'Xichuan'." Wu Wei replied.

That's how things settled.

When Lei Zhen received a call from Zhong Yunqing in the office, he had just finished a meeting with the head of the marketing department and several executives.Hearing Zhong Xiaoer say on the other end of the phone that he was going to eat hot pot, how could Lei Zhen be willing to spoil his joy with that cheerful energy.

"Okay, I got it. Well, you want to go directly with Zhou Yu and the others? Okay, then I'll be there on time at six o'clock."

After listening to Zhong Xiaoer babbling for a long time, Lei Zhen was willing to end the call.Raising his head, Lei Zhen's originally majestic and dignified facial lines and expressions seemed to be affected by Zhong Xiaoer's vitality, and became extra soft.After concentrating on processing the few documents at hand, Lei Zhen dialed the inside line.

"Manli, push down the city government's reception dinner tonight for me."

"Okay, President. I will greet the Municipal Secretariat as soon as possible." Special Assistant Ms. Wang responded elegantly and competently, without a single question or nonsense.

She and Lei Zhen have partnered for many years, and they have a good understanding at work. As for the private life of the big boss, Wang Manli insists on adhering to the principle, not asking questions that shouldn't be asked, and not caring about what shouldn't be done.Of course, the large group of brain-filling OOC fans lying in her private computer is not within the scope of this principle.

Not long after talking with Wang Tezhu, Zhao Quan, dressed in loose hip-hop clothes, rushed up excitedly and asked Lei Zhen to report Fatty Sun Zhizhi and his latest discovery.

"Boss, this is a picture captured by a surveillance camera at an intersection in the east of the city."

Zhao Quan said, and handed a stack of printed photos to Lei Zhen for a look.

Accompanying Zhong Yunqing to finish gun practice, he returned to Leiting Building. As the head of the network security information department, Zhao Quan called Fatty Sun Zhizhi before and asked him and others to find the van that was being monitored along the way before the collision. The captured video data.Such a little reverse push back, really hard work pays off, and finally outlines the approximate route of the car.

"This intersection is the last, no, the first place where the surveillance camera captured the van's whereabouts. Less than 200 meters away from this intersection, there is a second-hand car trading market." Zhao Quan spoke extremely fast, He wiped his nose with his fingers, smiled childishly, and continued: "Almost 90.00% of the store market now has computers connected to the Internet. We found out that this car market not only sells legitimate used cars, but also forges information. Information, to help the car theft group secretly sell stolen goods. I also know that their sales manager usually likes to play Doudizhu, and he is behind his wife’s back on the Internet—”

The chattering Zhao Quan wanted to continue gossip, but he accidentally caught Lei Zhen's sweeping gaze. He was agitated, and immediately straightened his back and stood in a military posture, making a long story short: "As soon as we hacked into that second-hand car trading market, From the computer of the car sales manager, I found the encrypted folder recording the dark accounts, which contained detailed transaction amounts and videos. Hehe, the hand left by the manager helped us a lot. The person who bought the car was very careful and paid Cash, but when they checked out, they probably didn’t expect that in this unmonitored second-hand car market, the manager’s office where the safe is kept is equipped with a probe!”

After Lei Zhen listened to Zhao Quan's report, he turned to the last few of the thick stack of printed photos in his hand.He stared at the two burly men in the photo, his brows furrowed slightly, and there was a little surprise in his calm voice: "Europeans?"

The images of the transactions between the two parties captured by the probe cannot be said to be very high-definition, but the pixels are enough to allow people to distinguish the differences between races. No matter the burly physique, skin color, facial features, or the color of hair and eyes, they all clearly show the identity of the other party. Straightforward Caucasian.

The whole thing just got weirder.

The focus of Lei Zhen's career is basically in Huaguo, and his competitors are also concentrated in China. The other party may have scruples or other reasons for this car crash. Just fled, without further radical actions.All kinds of actions, rather than putting Lei Zhen to death, are more like warning him.

As for what to warn him, it is puzzling.

"Boss, could it be that there is a problem with the acquisition of the United States?" Zhao Quansi thought about it, and only thought of such a possibility.

Thunder Entertainment's acquisition of Hollywood's MGM Films, a commercial move that has attracted worldwide attention, actually started lengthy negotiations more than two years ago.Now that the dust has settled, everything is going smoothly on the surface, but in fact, if there is a disturbance, it is already not the best time to wait.But after all, tens of billions of funds are involved, and many people are involved, so Zhao Quan's suspicion is not completely unreasonable.

Lei Zhen put down the printed photos in his hand, pondered for a moment, and then told Zhao Quan: "Follow the photos of these two white men and continue to search. How did they arrive at the car market? Is there any other accomplices? Check them all. Clear. In addition, let Sun Zhizhi and the others call up the list of the board of directors in the United States, and thoroughly investigate the background and social relations of all major shareholders according to the names on the list."

Zhao Quan nodded to express his understanding. He had already begun to investigate the whereabouts of the two white men.Zhao Quan was just a little depressed, alas, it seems that the next period of time will not be peaceful again, it seems that the Chinese New Year is almost here, it is really frustrating!
