Since Liu Zhishi took the Rolls-Royce sent by Xu Xin last time, he added a car to the Magic City.
It’s the Alfa I’ve sat in and found it very comfortable. Since there is no assistant, Li Minnian has to be the one driving the car.
Along the way, Li Minnian, who was driving, would occasionally use the rearview mirror to glance at her sitting in the back seat. Take a look, take it back, drive and look at the road, and then take another look... But Liu Zhishi kept looking out the window, not knowing what he was thinking.
Li Minnian watched as the people of Tang Dynasty got closer and closer, feeling like
The sense of déjà vu of "rushing to the execution ground" began to roll over. When he was just two blocks away from Tangren, he finally couldn't help but speak: "Shishi... what are you thinking about?"
"?" Liu Zhishi came back to her senses, glanced at the rearview mirror, and said, "I was thinking about the past."
"...When you were a child?"
"No, just... the time when I first met Mr. Cai." She retracted her gaze outside, pushed up her glasses, and said unhurriedly: "At that time, whether it was Mr. Cai or Lao Hu, Yuan Hong and others... everyone is always laughing. There are not so many things. As a newcomer, I am always trembling when facing Lao Hu, especially when I was filming "Sword of Immortality" and watching him and Mimi act opposite, I was looking at these two people and thinking, how do they behave so naturally?"
"Uh..." Li Minnian didn't know what to say for a while. Liu Zhishi was unwilling to continue talking, and just shook his head: "Brother Li, you don't have to accompany me for a while, just wait for me downstairs. I'll go up by myself."
"Don't, if you and Mr. Cai get into a fight..."
"I won't quarrel with her." Her tone was very firm: "There is no need to quarrel. Just tell the matter and then ask Mr. Cai what he wants to do. What is there to quarrel with?"
"But she will definitely get angry when she hears the news..."
"Then I'll leave directly. Don't worry, Brother Li. I know what's going on, and I don't want to make it difficult for you. I will handle this matter neatly and neatly."
"..." Li Minnian thought for a moment, then shook her head: "No, I'm still worried. I'll go there with you..."
"It's really unnecessary." Liu Zhishi's tone became firmer: "I can do it myself."
"This..." In the end, Li Minian could only agree. But he still reminded me: "In the worst case, just go through the legal process. There is no need for us to be wronged."
"Okay." Liu Zhishi responded. Then, the car also arrived at the downstairs of Tangren. She opened the door and got out of the car.
"Shishi, should I wait for you in the basement? Or here?"
"Just here." Liu Zhishi waved goodbye to him and walked into the office building. When she entered the office building, she didn't do anything to cover up.
It's not just Tangren alone in the office building, there are other companies as well. There are several people waiting for the elevator at the moment.
When they saw Liu Zhishi, several men looked surprised. After the elevator door opened, everyone entered the elevator together. Liu Zhishi lowered her head and looked at the photos on her phone, while those people glanced at her covertly, over and over again.
From head to toe, from clothes to mobile phone screens... Only then did several people realize that the pictures on the other party's mobile phones were of short-haired models one after another.
Liu Zhishi wants to cut her hair short? Soon, the floor reached the Tang Dynasty floor, and Liu Zhishi raised his head and walked out.
After walking out, several men looked at each other...
"Really beautiful."
"Well, she's even more beautiful than she looks on TV." Several people expressed their approval. …
"Hello, welcome...ah, Shi...Sister Shishi." The front desk saw the person walking in, but he didn't recognize it at first.
But after seeing his face clearly, he quickly said hello.
"Well, is Mr. Cai here?"
"Yes... yes." As soon as the receptionist nodded and agreed, Liu Zhishi nodded politely: "Okay, thank you." She had no impression of the receptionist. She thought he would be a new recruit to the company after the year.
But she knew the other receptionist who was sitting and busy on the computer, but she couldn't name him.
After thanking you, you will go inside. But the front desk subconsciously shouted: "Wait a minute!"
"?" Liu Zhishi turned to look at her in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"Uh..." The front desk also glanced at the old employee who continued to look at the computer and did nothing. He just used the right mouse button and the E key to refresh the screen. He said bravely: "The company...the company regulations require you to see Cai. In short, you need to make an appointment. Sister Shishi, you... don't have an appointment."
"Uh..." Liu Zhishi was stunned and had no intention of getting angry. Although...from the time she came to Tangren to now, as long as Mr. Cai is here, even if
During the period of "Xue Zang", I could always communicate directly with the other party if there was anything I needed to do. There is no so-called
Made an "appointment". But since they mentioned it, she said calmly: "Then please give me a call. Just call...Secretary Lin and tell me that I want to see Mr. Cai."
"...Okay. Then...please sit down first." The front desk pointed to the chairs in the visitor waiting area.
"Yeah, okay." Liu Zhishi responded again, and then sat on the row of chairs. Like a misfit outsider.
But she didn't care. She just continued to look down at the photos of models with short hair one after another, thinking about what kind of short hair style Yin Guxia should have.
The front desk also quickly called Secretary Lin's landline.
"Hello, Secretary Lin, this is the front desk. Here's the thing. Sister Shishi wants to see Mr. Cai. Do you think it's convenient for Mr. Cai now?"
"Shishi?" Secretary Lin's voice was a little surprised. Then asked: "Where is she now?"
"reception."
"..." The other side of the phone was silent for a while, and then said, "Okay, I'll go ask Mr. Cai, please wait for my call."
"Okay, Secretary Lin." The front desk politely hung up the phone. After thinking for a while, he walked out of the front desk and walked to Liu Zhishi: "Sister Shishi, I called and asked Secretary Lin. Secretary Lin is now looking for Cai. Sir, please wait a moment."
"Okay, sorry to trouble you." Liu Zhishi smiled at her. The receptionist thought for a while, walked to the water dispenser, took a disposable cup and poured her a glass of water.
"Sister Shishi, please drink some water."
"Thank you." After this glass of water, there was no communication between the two parties. Time is passing minute by minute. About ten minutes later, Liu Zhishi, who had started reading the e-book version of "Sunspot" from the model pictures, suddenly heard a voice: "Sister Shishi?" She subconsciously raised her head.
Then he showed a look of surprise. Guo Xiaoting. She showed a very polite smile: "Xiaoting, long time no see."
"Yes, Sister Shishi, long time no see." Guo Xiaoting smiled and nodded. Then he asked with some surprise: "What are you doing sitting here?"
"Waiting for Mr. Cai, I have something to do with Mr. Cai."
"...Huh?" Guo Xiaoting was stunned. Subconsciously asked: "Mr. Cai is not here?"
"Here I am."
"...Huh?" She was a little confused again. Mr. Cai is here, and Sister Shishi is still waiting at the door of the company? This... is Mr. Cai still angry?
She was surprised, then turned to look at the two people standing up at the front desk. The moment she came in, the receptionist who had just greeted Liu Zhishi and the receptionist who was sitting and operating the computer to refresh the screen all stood up.
Although Guo Xiaoting is young, she is an old employee of the company and one of the child stars that the company has picked up.
This polite greeting is the minimum. Guo Xiaoting didn't know what happened just now, but Liu Zhishi wanted to laugh for some reason after seeing the receptionist who was playing on the computer standing up.
But she didn't say anything. Guo Xiaoting rolled her eyes, withdrew her gaze, and sat directly next to Liu Zhishi: "Then I'll wait with Sister Shishi for a while." Liu Zhishi looked at her sitting next to him, ignoring the look on her body that really didn't match her age. Matching the Hermès vegetable basket, he asked: "What have you been busy with recently?"
"I'm busy with the college entrance examination."
"Oh? Where are you going to apply? Beiying? China Film?"
"No, just sign up for the theater, it's closer to the company." Hearing this, Liu Zhishi nodded: "That's good, how about it, is it stressful?"
"It's okay. There will definitely be no problem in the professional courses. I'm just afraid that I won't get enough marks in the cultural courses..." After the two chatted for a few words about their studies, Guo Xiaoting suddenly changed the subject: "Sister Shishi, the producer of "Step by Step" Is it over?"
"Not yet, now is the dubbing stage."
"Oh..." Guo Xiaoting nodded and suddenly lowered her voice: "Sister Shishi, let me ask you something."
"Well, you say."
"Last year, a new member of the company named Nazha... didn't she play a role in "Bu Bu Jing Xin"?"
"Well, what?"
"How was her... play?"
"Hmm..." After hearing this, Liu Zhishi's face showed a look of reminiscence. The character played by the little girl named Nazha seems to be Suwanguarjia Minmin, a Mongolian princess.
The two have had several rivalry scenes. Recalling those performance clips, she nodded: "It's pretty good, my basic skills are very solid. I feel like I was definitely not as good as her at her age."
"..." Upon hearing her comments, Guo Xiaoting showed a trace of disdain on her face. When Liu Zhishi saw this, he asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Why such an expression?"
"..." Guo Xiaoting thought for a while and said in a low voice again: "Sister, didn't you and her come to the annual meeting last year because of filming? I also listened to Mr. Ren and the others... You have to be careful with her. The company seems to be trying to promote her. Director Lin was full of praise for her at this year's spring meeting, and Mr. Cai also likes her very much. It is said that this year he will arrange a lot of resources to spend on her..."
"..." Liu Zhishi was stunned when he heard this. A sense of déjà vu suddenly arose in my heart that made me laugh.
In fact, she has never particularly liked Guo Xiaoting. It's because this child started competing for celebrity status and resources from the time she was filming Fairy Sword, which was the year before last year, when she was only fifteen or sixteen years old... She liked to compare, and sometimes she even liked to use words to bully others.
But at that time, everyone thought that she was just a child, young and ignorant, so she would not be like her. But now... Liu Zhishi really felt awkward after hearing this.
Whether the company praises Nazha or not has little to do with her. Although she probably understood why the other party was so unbalanced.
The little girl named Nazha is about the same age as her. She just joined the company last year and has been reused.
Guo Xiaoting has been with the company for several years, but the resources she has received have always been tepid. No one would feel comfortable comparing the two.
But the problem is that she is leaving soon. What Guo Xiaoting said was nothing more than to encourage her to secure her position as the first sister and suppress the little girl named Nazha?
What's the point? I have to leave, and it doesn’t matter who becomes my first sister in the future. What's more... looking at the person in front of me who has been getting along for several years, I
"Looking" at the grown-up child, Liu Zhishi thought for a while and whispered: "Xiaoting, can I say something to you from the bottom of my heart?"
"Yeah, you say it." Guo Xiaoting nodded.
"Compared with resources and celebrity status, I think actors should pay more attention to the performance itself. Especially at the university level, you will learn a lot of things that can't be learned from acting teachers or art schools. These are what an actor... The foundation for survival in the film and television industry in the future. You have to know...the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. How you perform can only be truly reflected by the audience. As long as your acting skills are achieved, you will be able to walk in the world. On the right path, even if your artistic career is not so prosperous, you will bloom with distinctive flowers and be remembered in the hearts of the audience. An actor's merit is not how much money he makes or how high his status is, but It depends on whether she can be remembered by the audience..."
"Uh..." Guo Xiaoting was stunned, but her first reaction was confusion. I don't know if she didn't understand Liu Zhishi's words, or something else... But her second reaction was that... very perfunctory: "Yeah, I know. Sister Shishi, I don't mean anything else, I just want to tell you. , you have to be more careful. After all, we are the closest..." Listening to her sudden eagerness to reveal
At the words of "dividing camps", Liu Zhishi sighed in her heart. she knows. What he said was in vain.
Since it's all in vain...then I won't say it anymore. So, she nodded: "Okay, I know."
"Yeah! I'll go first, there's a physical fitness class over there."
"Well, you go ahead."
"Then..." Guo Xiaoting stood up, as if she wanted to say something. But she glanced at the front desk again, and finally just waved to Liu Zhishi: "Goodbye, Sister Shishi."
"Yeah." Liu Zhishi smiled and nodded: "Goodbye." Guo Xiaoting left, and Liu Zhishi looked at her leaving back and suddenly sighed.
"Alas..." Then, she waited for a while. Although some people went out in the middle, some people came in, and it was busy.
Everyone's reaction to seeing her sitting in the visitor waiting area was different. Some were surprised, some were speechless, and some were just sighs of not being surprised... Xin Shuo's confrontation with Mr. Cai really didn't end well.
After sitting at the door of the company for nearly half an hour, she finally heard someone call her: "Shishi." She turned her head and stood up calmly: "Secretary Lin."
"Well, Mr. Cai asked you to come over." After Secretary Lin finished speaking, he didn't wait and was not very courteous. Just like treating employees, he left after giving notice.
Liu Zhishi then walked towards the stairs leading to the upper level of the company. As she walked, she glanced at the watch on her wrist.
He went upstairs, passed through room after room, and finally arrived at the double doors.
"Dongdongdong."
"Come in." Liu Zhishi opened the door. Cai Yinong was still sitting at his desk, head lowered, as if he was working on some document.
Didn't say
"Sit down", he didn't say anything.
"About Poetry". It seemed like he was just working. Logically speaking, the people in the company would either stand aside or sit on the sofa and wait for her to find him after she is done.
But Liu Zhishi didn't. She just walked into the house, closed the door, took a few steps forward, stood about three steps away from Cai Yinong's desk, and said hello: "Mr. Cai."
"Yeah." Cai Yinong didn't look up. He just responded and nothing more happened. As for Liu Zhishi, she said in a very calm voice: "I want to terminate the contract."
"..." Cai Yinong paused while shaking his pen. He raised his head subconsciously, with a trace of astonishment appearing on his face.
Looking at Liu Zhishi: "?" Her expression was full of confusion, as if she didn't hear clearly what Liu Zhishi said.
Liu Zhishi said again: "I want to terminate the contract with the company."
"...?" Cai Yinong's face showed doubts, speechlessness, confusion and many other emotions. In the end, thousands of words turned into one sentence: "What? You...say it again?"
"I said that I want to terminate the artist contract with the company. I came to you today because I hope to break up with the company peacefully. I know that I have breached the contract. But I have consulted a lawyer and I have fulfilled my obligations to the company in addition to the number of years, including works, There are all rigid rules for advertising, performances, activities, etc. Therefore, I hope to use the price of 750,000 to buy out the remaining three years of my contract. Do you think it is okay?" This time, Cai Yinong heard clearly.
But after hearing clearly, the pen in his hand was directly photographed on the document: "Pop!"
"Shishi... do you know what you are going to say?" Her eyes were full of shock, absurdity and anger.
His tone was like a knife. Cutting off human flesh and blood. But if her tone was like a knife, Liu Zhishi's expression was like the motionless Vajra Buddha.
She nodded calmly: "I know. I want to terminate the contract with the company. Peacefully terminate the contract." She nailed the last four words.
Expressed his sincerity. But the more she behaved like this, the more ferocious Cai Yinong's expression became.
Gritting his teeth ferociously: "I need a reason!"
"What's the reason..." Liu Zhishi thought for a while and said calmly: "From a close perspective, I arrived at the company at 9:42. After arriving at the front desk, the new receptionist greeted me, and the original company The old employee didn't even look at me, he was just playing on the computer."
"..." Cai Yinong was stunned.
"I said I came to see you, and the newcomer told me that according to the company's regulations, you need to make an appointment. But this is a regulation for company visitors, right? You once said that we, your artists, no matter who We can call you or come to you anytime, anywhere. This is something that all the old employees of the company know, and it also reflects your responsibility as our first agent. The front desk person playing with the computer is also an old employee, she It makes no sense that I don't know. But she didn't say anything. So, I was stopped in the waiting area where only company visitors would stay. It wasn't until 10:34 that Secretary Lin came to call me." At this point, she looked at Cai Yinong asked his doubts: "Mr. Cai, am I still a member of the company? If so, why do everyone treat me like this?"
"Uh..." As soon as these words came out, Cai Yinong felt a little confused. Because it was her decision to hang out Liu Zhishi.
She told her secretary to remind her half an hour later. But why is it ten minutes longer...
"Is this your reason for terminating the contract?" She ultimately did not give a positive response. But after hearing this, Liu Zhishi shook his head: "That's not true. This is just a point where I firmly terminate the contract. You once said that the company will be my home from now on. But now even my family members treat me as my home." As an outsider, I have no reason to stay here. And my main reason is that my ideas are inconsistent. What you want me to do contradicts and conflicts too much with what I want to do, so I don’t want to stay here anymore. So, If you agree, then I hope to compensate you with a loss of 750,000 for the remaining years of my contract..."
"This is impossible! Do you know how many years are left on your contract? You..."
"That's it..." Hearing Cai Yinong's merciless rejection, Liu Zhishi didn't even hear the complete reason, so she nodded: "Okay." After saying that, she looked at Cai Yinong seriously and spoke word by word. Said: "Mr. Cai, although I hope to terminate the contract with the company peacefully, but you rejected my conditions, then I can only rely on the law to resolve this matter. Thank you for your cultivation and love from 2007 to now. Thank you for leading me into this industry, and thank you for supporting me over the past few years. Goodbye." After saying this, she bowed deeply to Cai Yinong.
After getting up, he turned around and walked towards the door.
"Shishi!"
"..."
"Liu Zhishi! Stop!"
"..."
"Liu Zhishi!" When the door opened, the entire floor seemed to hear her voice. But Liu Zhishi still didn't look back.
Just like what she said to Li Minian, she would solve this matter quickly and neatly. There won't be any sloppy appearance.
Absolutely not. If you can't agree on a peaceful settlement, then let's go to court.
