Dust is like a city

Chapter 149 Self-reliance

After Chen Qianchen's movie was finished, he originally planned to start working on his next project. During this period, Kevin came to him once and gave him a list of many good companies. Not all of these companies are registered in City A. Entertainment companies, many They are all headquartered in Japan or South Korea, and they are all large companies in Asia.

When Chen Qianchen saw the list, he couldn't help but smile: "Brother Kevin, Chairman Huo asked you to arrange this, right?"

Kevin does have strength and connections, but his connections are still concentrated in City A. Even if he has contact with these international companies, it is impossible for him to be familiar enough to get so many lists at once.

Kevin, who was still eloquently introducing the company to him, felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this, but he didn't deliberately deny anything, he just patted Chen Qianchen on the shoulder and said, "Qianchen, you have to believe Brother is really thinking about you, I know you and Chairman Huo are not at odds, but a good guy doesn't suffer from immediate losses, since he introduced you to such a good next family, don't you want it for nothing, right?"

Chen Qianchen sighed slightly: "If you accept this, then there will be no difference between me and Ke Yinian."

Kevin frowned slightly, and said, "Qianchen...are you still waiting for Mr. Huo to come back?"

Chen Qianchen was slightly taken aback by this question, and for a moment didn't know how to answer it.

It is true that he and Huo Rongxuan broke up, he chose the path himself, and he can't say he regrets it at this moment, but deep down in his heart, he is indeed waiting for Huo Rongxuan to return to the country.

Even if it's just for a good parting, I want to see him again.

I don't want to let the memories freeze forever in the cold war that night.

Of course, these are just my own imaginations. No one knows where Huo Rongxuan went abroad, when he will come back, and whether he will come back.Even if he comes back, it's hard to say whether he will see him or not.

Just think about it.

Chen Qianchen pushed the information back to Kevin, and said, "Thank you Kevin, I know you are doing it for my own good, but I don't want to have any more interaction with Chairman Huo, and I don't want to accept his charity again, after all ... Forget it, I don't think I should look for a company that is too big, if the company is smaller, the resources will be concentrated, which is pretty good, isn't it?"

Seeing that Chen Qianchen had made up his mind, Kevin stopped persuading him and said, "That's fine, you can figure it out yourself, Xie Xia is also busy with your matter these days, you can discuss it with her more, she She also has a wide network of contacts, so she should be able to help you... Besides, you are the most caring artist among the artists she has brought, and you will definitely help you."

"I know." Chen Qianchen nodded slightly, then bid farewell to Kevin, and decided to go to Xie Xia to discuss it again. In fact, three months is really not a lot of time. If he doesn't make a decision, his work will be greatly suspended. , This is really not a good thing for an artist.

But he didn't expect that when he just spit out the company's door and was about to call Xie Xia, Xie Xia called first.

"Hey, sister Xia, how's the situation for me?" Chen Qianchen asked after answering the phone.

Xie Xia pondered for a while and said, "It's like this. Today I contacted the person in charge of Jinquan Company, but...their attitude is rather ambiguous..."

"That's it..." It's no surprise that this is the case. Small companies are like this. Because they are afraid of offending Xingcheng, no one dares to sign themselves first without knowing the reason why Chen Qianchen and Xingcheng terminated the contract. Several companies also gave ambiguous answers, and Chen Qianchen got used to hearing it, although he was a little helpless.

"Qianchen..." Xie Xia's voice paused, and then said, "How about this, I have an idea, please listen to it, I have had this idea for a long time..."

"Huh?" Chen Qianchen was a little curious.

"Set up your own business." Xie Xia said, "Open your own studio."

This bold idea startled Chen Qianchen, and Xie Xia continued on the other end of the phone: "There are not a few artists who do this now. Although they don't have the protection of big companies, they have a relatively high degree of freedom in their work, and they are different from other artists." There will be more opportunities for companies to cooperate, there is nothing wrong with it, and it is also possible to open an independent studio with your current worth.”

Xie Xia's idea was too bold, and Chen Qianchen said anxiously, "But the establishment of an artist independent studio requires a lot of preparation in the early stage? I don't have much experience..."

"I have." Xie Xia's voice became confident, "When the time comes, I will still answer your job announcements for you. Are you afraid that you won't get good resources?"

Chen Qianchen was surprised: "But Miss Xia, you..."

"If you leave Xingcheng, I will go with you." Xie Xia said.

"Eh?" Chen Qianchen was so shocked that he could hardly speak, "But..."

"It's nothing to worry about. I'm not an artist like you. I only have an employment contract. Even if I resign, I won't have to pay any liquidated damages. Don't worry." Xie Xia on the other end of the phone seemed to smile.

"But...but..." Chen Qianchen didn't know what to say, but the shock in his heart was very strong. He was very grateful to Xie Xia who had been helping him when he left, but he never expected that she would be so resolute with her. go together.

"Everyone said goodbye." Xie Xia said firmly, "In the early stage, we can only open a small studio, choose a small place for the office, and the registered capital does not need too much, so it will not be too difficult. In terms of clothing, we can It is not a big problem to find a way to find sponsors. It is more difficult to run a studio than a big company, but as long as it is on the right track in the future, everything will get better and better, and you don’t have to worry about money. I can also help you a lot..."

"...Why?" Chen Qianchen finally couldn't help asking, "Sister Xia...why do you help me so much?"

Xie Xia was silent for a while: "You are the most outstanding artist I have been working with for so many years..."

Chen Qianchen was slightly stunned, and felt a little sour in his heart. He had been working hard all this time, wanting to prove himself well, just to live up to Huo Rongxuan's trust at the beginning, but the more time passed, the more he felt that his success was all just It's just relying on luck and Huo's family, Chen Qianchen is not without frustration, he hopes to be able to succeed with his own efforts.But I didn't expect that after all, these efforts of my own were really seen by other people.

"I am a person who does everything from beginning to end. I want to bring you to the highest position, so how can I give up here?" Xie Xia said, "What's more... I don't like Chairman Huo's approach, so... …I would rather leave this company.”

Chen Qianchen held the phone in his hand and didn't speak.

"Qianchen." Xie Xia's voice became a little gentle, "You will definitely succeed. Although you will encounter many difficulties in the future when you open an independent studio, but you are such a tough person, you will not be afraid, right? As long as you are afraid, then I will always support you, keep going, I really believe...you can do it."

Chen Qianchen felt that his eye sockets were slightly wet, he wiped his eyes lightly, and finally nodded: "Well... let's open a studio, and from now on... we will walk on the road we want to take."

In this way, Chen Qianchen did not choose to go to any company in the end, but resigned with Xie Xia to open an independent artist studio.

The person who is most disappointed about this may be Kevin. After all, he has a very good relationship with the two of them. This time, the two of them are really both sad and a headache. The headache is that the company does not have a good agent. There are many people, and there is only Jian Mo left as an artist. For an entertainment company, it is rare to have only one artist under its umbrella. In addition, it is difficult to make money in this way, so Kevin is stuck in the end. Those newcomers still go directly to other companies to poach some commercially valuable artists?But no matter which one he is, he will probably be busy for a while.

After Huo Yong got the news, he didn't show any emotions. Although it was different from what he had expected, as long as Chen Qianchen left Huo Rongxuan, it would be fine, and we can talk about the future slowly.

Two days ago, I heard from my own people that Ke Yinian had gone to Canada with him, which made Huo Yong a little unhappy. The unpleasant point was not Ke Yinian, but Han Hansen who was beside Ke Yinian.The news that Huo Rongxuan is going to Canada can be obtained from here, it must have been revealed to him by Han Hansen. Han Hansen was able to become a gold agent because of his good relationship with the Huo family, but now he is helping Ke Yinian, Huo Yinian Yong felt that it was time for him to realize something.

As a smart person, you should understand who cannot be offended.

And just when Chen Qianchen decided to open an independent studio and was busy running around, he unexpectedly received a call from Zheng Qun, the director of "Long Life", which had just finished filming some time ago.

Zheng Qun actually came to invite Chen Qianchen to dinner, and said he would give him a chance to audition. Chen Qianchen was at a loss at the beginning, and then remembered that Zheng Qun had indeed mentioned this matter to him on the day of the finale banquet. A friend has a new play and wants him to try it.

In fact, Chen Qianchen is too busy to leave now. After all, it takes too much time and energy to set up a studio, but at that time, he has already agreed to others, so Chen Qianchen did not shirk, and went to what Zheng Qun said. location.

Zheng Qun and the others made an appointment with a family in a small building on the outskirts of City A, deep into an alley. This place was really hard to find, and it took Chen Qianchen a while to find the entrance of the small building.

There is an old house number hanging at the entrance. It can be seen that this house is also a bit historical. It is slightly similar to the Yougu House that Huo Yong picked back then, but it is much smaller and the grade does not seem so high, but every day Everywhere exudes a simple and simple charm, which gives people a taste that the aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley.

When Chen Qianchen walked up the wooden stairs to the second floor, he realized that there were several people sitting around two small tea tables, all of them were of a certain age, most of them looked about 50 or [-] years old, and one of them was Zheng Qun.

"Qianchen, this way." Zheng Qun greeted him with a smile and asked him to sit over.

"Director Zheng." Chen Qianchen nodded slightly at him, and then sat next to him.

"Let me introduce you to my friend—Lin Fengping, Director Lin." Zheng Qun smiled and turned sideways, pointing to another person beside him.

Chen Qianchen took a closer look and found that the person sitting next to Zheng Qun was indeed Lin Fengping, an international director.
