Xue Yang rubbed his ears as if he did not hear clearly."What did you just say?"
Sun Tao repeated what he had just said,""I said that I called you here this time to re-sign the contract with you on behalf of Dalai!”
"Pfft…"
Xue Yang sneered,"I was wondering why you were so shameless. Where did you get the face to sign a contract with me?"
Sun Tao had already tried his best to lower his attitude to complete Liu Junsheng's mission. However, he did not expect Xue Yang to laugh at him.
Sun Tao thought of something and sneered,"Don't be too smug. You just participated in a variety show. Do you really think you're an A-list celebrity?”
Xue Yang got up from the sofa and poured some water as if nothing had happened."It doesn't matter if I'm an A-list celebrity or not. What's important is that you guys ban me and chase me away from the program team!”
Previously, Xue Yang was still at Da Lai Company, so it was normal for them to freeze or ban him.
But now that he was a free man, he was naturally not afraid of their ban.
Furthermore, back then, one entertainment company was the only one that was dominant, which resulted in many people being banned. Later on, the SARFT and the Ministry of Culture intervened, preventing any obvious ban.
However, they could do it in secret, such as disqualifying a celebrity from auditioning for a TV series or endorsements, so that the celebrity's popularity would naturally decline.
However, these things were also thankless. Now, most companies did not need them. Moreover, Dalai was not a big company. They did not have the capital and qualifications.
The only thing he could hope for was to hook up with his sugar daddy and get them to make a move.
However, that was only in the past. Now was the era where content was king. Xue Yang could bring viewership ratings to the television station, and that was profit. Unless the leaders of this program were fools, they would not cancel his guest qualifications.
Now that Xue Yang had not accepted any endorsements or shows, they had no way to start.
In the end, there was no other way.
Sun Tao seemed to know that he could not explain Xue Yang's words. He snorted coldly and said,"Don't be happy too early. If you offend us, don't even think about having smooth sailing in the future.”
Xue Yang was also disdainful when he heard this. Even if they could bribe the live audience, could they possibly bribe the entire country's audience?
Sun Tao also knew that he couldn't continue the conversation with Xue Yang, so he left with a " just you wait and see " and slipped away.
Xue Yang gave him a middle finger and went back to his room to sleep.
……
"Is what you said true?"
Liu Junsheng frowned when he heard what Sun Tao said.
"Brother-in-law, of course it's true!" Sun Tao immediately said.”
In fact, he had added fuel to the fire for the incident in the morning, but Liu Junsheng would definitely not know about it.
It was impossible for him to ask Xue Yang in person.
Liu Junsheng also knew that it seemed like he could not take things back after falling out with Xue Yang. He began to regret listening to Sun Tao's slanderous words and getting close to Wang Yun while keeping Xue Yang in the cold.
Now, Xue Yang had relied on Happy Comedian to become a B-list celebrity. He would definitely be able to get even higher in the future.
This wave was a huge loss!
However, what had happened did not help. He was also very uncomfortable with Xue Yang's attitude. No matter how powerful he was, he was just a small celebrity.
"How about this? If we can't ban him, then we'll start from his side…" he said in a deep voice.
Liu Junsheng called Sun Tao to the side and whispered the plan into his ear.
Sun Tao revealed a sinister smile when he heard the plan.
……
As for Xue Yang, when he woke up, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon. During this time, Ding Zhaokun called him, but he did not receive it. However, he did receive a text message.
She told him to meet her at the usual place at seven o'clock sharp.
Xue Yang didn't eat because he would just eat directly when they met.
Xue Yang arrived at Old Luo's restaurant a few minutes before seven.
This was their old place. Back then, they had gathered here for their four-year dormitory dinner.
When he arrived, he realized that Ding Zhaokun, Zhou Binyang, and Zhang Yikun were all there. When he saw Xue Yang, he said bluntly,"Why are you guys so early?"
Ding Zhaokun said disdainfully,"We've long been used to your late personality, so we arrived early."”
Xue Yang also chuckled at this.
After that, everyone ordered the old dishes that they would order before. Then, they started to compete in wine. After a few bottles, they became chatty.
First, they talked about the four years of university, then they talked about beautiful women, and finally, they talked about their careers.
As far as he knew, Ding Zhaokun became a comedy actor, Zhang Yikun became a small-time director, but he could only shoot some MVs and promotional videos, while Zhou Binyang became a host on a local television station.
Although both of them looked glamorous, their lives were very bleak.
On the contrary, Xue Yang, who had always been envied, welcomed a second spring.
After downing a few bottles of wine, Ding Zhaokun patted Xue Yang's shoulder and said with emotion,""Goat, I really envy you!”
Xue Yang could also see that his expression and eyes were very sincere at this moment. He laughed and scolded,"I think you're just jealous that I'm so close to your goddess!”
Ding Zhaokun naturally wouldn't admit it and retorted,""Go to hell!"
Later on, the four of them drank more and more. As for how Xue Yang returned to his room, he had no idea. When he woke up, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon the next day.
Xue Yang endured the discomfort in his head and wrote the script for the next episode. However, when he was contacting the actors, he met with obstacles.
The students that he had found previously had all rejected his invitation. Even the teachers that he had worked with once had been sent overseas on business trips because of something.
When he called Zhao Liying, her assistant answered the call.
Xue Yang didn't remember clearly what she said, but she said that Zhao Liying wasn't free.
Xue Yang quickly understood that someone was definitely behind this.
And he knew very well who it was.
Xue Yang called the other teachers, but they either didn't pick up or found excuses to avoid him.
He even sent a message to a few WeChat groups at Yanjing University of the Arts to find extras, but no one responded. They were usually the most active, and many of them regretted not looking for them last time.
After about half an hour, Xue Yang received a text message from Zhao Liying. The main content was that she had encountered some trouble in the management company and could not help Xue Yang act for the time being.
However, she was negotiating with the management company to terminate the contract early.
Xue Yang knew that Zhao Liying's phone must have been managed by her manager. This message might have been sent secretly. Xue Yang was very touched by her behavior, but he still dissuaded her.
After all, Xue Yang knew that Zhao Liying's contract would end in less than two months. If she terminated the contract now, not only would she have to pay a large termination fee, but it would also affect her greatly.
"Da Lai, do you think that if the people around me don't help me, I won't be able to do anything? Haha…"
Xue Yang laughed coldly and called Ding Zhaokun."Little Zhao, there's something good now. I'm going to look for you as the guest performer for the next episode of 'Happy Comedian'!”
