11 There will always be people who will be sacrificed

The figure skating team's notice of Jiang Xin's handling was officially issued, canceling her advertising endorsement, and giving a notice of criticism, hoping to take it as a warning.

This news floated on the front page of the major portals, and it did not cause much splash, and there were only a few positive and negative comments.

However, there were a few die-hard fans of Jiang Xin who put the news on Weibo, and fiercely hugged the young lady, saying that if it was restricted, it would be better to limit the number of Han Lu's advertisements first, they didn't want to turn on the TV every day to watch a football game and see her old face.

After this incident, Jiang Xin and Xu Haoyang also ended a three-day commercial performance in Seoul, South Korea.

It was a commercial stage created by a team of rising stars in the Korean men's singles, who played at a consistent level and performed spectacular double swallow spins and tosses – perhaps their best performance in recent times.

They were met with huge and long cheers and applause – and terrible hugs from Duhamel and Eric. This is the only commercial performance that the talented duo has participated in.

Xu Haoyang almost regained confidence in himself because of this.

He has the tendency to be lost for a long time because of one thing, and suddenly feel that there is still hope and a turn for the better because of another.

However, during his stay in South Korea, Jiang Xin and he could not have much personal contact, and he wanted to accompany her shopping, but she also perfunctorily refused.

The gentleness and patience she had left him with a disguise had finally come to an end.

This time, Jiang Xin and the others went to South Korea together, in addition to the staff in the team, there was also Lu Bolin. Because he relied on Han Lu in the past, he was familiar with his face in front of major media, so he was specially invited to do a half-hour guest commentary this time. After the competition officially ended and the athletes returned to their respective hotels, Lu Bolin and Jiang Xin met separately at Starbucks across the hotel.

They went in one after the other, Lu Bolin sat in it first, and then Jiang Xin walked in.

"Mr. Lu. ”

"You're welcome. Lu Bolin smiled, "You don't need to call it that." ”

Lu Bolin brought Jiang Xin a template of a contract, which was the same as the one he signed with Han Lu back then, which was a contract with full agency, which means that in the future, the international star sports agency will act as the sole agent of all Jiang Xin's business activities, and there will be professional personnel to package and promote it for her, so as to obtain the most business cooperation for her and ensure the maximum benefits of both parties.

Jiang Xin will not be unaware of what this contract means, it represents the recognition of its own value, whether it is as a figure skater or as an advertising star.

It didn't matter which side it was, she didn't care.

What she cares about is that she is valuable, someone needs her to create value, and someone will bring value to her.

This is the most important thing.

Unlike the other skaters on the team, Jiang Xin knew that they had some nobler pursuits and obsessions in their hearts, and they wanted to win, hoping to be recognized by the world as figure skaters and in their name, just like those who had inspired them deeply.

Of course, Jiang Xin also wants and yearns for it.

But if that doesn't happen, she doesn't mind going in a different direction.

She doesn't mind turning herself into a commodity that can be clearly priced.

She has been waiting for this contract for a long time.

She stared at the thin wad of paper on the table without changing her face, and her heart beat faster. She can now be sure that Lu Bolin is not Han Lu's boyfriend - of course, even if he is, he has nothing to do with her. As soon as she turned her gaze away from the ice rink beneath her feet, she quickly discovered that many things were far more complex than they appeared.

The truth of the matter is often hidden in people's secret words.

In the past, when all the spotlight was on Han Lu, Jiang Xin knew that he could not really come out. There is no limit to topics, and anyone can be at the center of the topic as long as they are intended to make it. However, the very real problem is that creating a topic requires resources, and resources are limited. In the case that relying on Han Lu alone can maximize benefits, no one will feel the need to divide resources and effort among others.

And rightfully so.

Therefore, just after the World Championships, when Lu Bolin proposed another advertising invitation to her through the figure skating center, she was vaguely aware of some changes in the situation.

Han Lu said to the outside world that it was "just a small injury", but in fact, it was far from being so simple and easy.

If Han Lu's commercial value is no longer there, then the brokerage company is bound to start looking for the next Han Lu.

Jiang Xin must seize this opportunity. She's 22 years old, which isn't too late, but it's not too early. She agreed to the offer almost without thinking, and didn't even ask about the brand's style, needs, positioning, and other things that ordinary players would consider in advance.

She had to prove to Lu Bolin that she was his best choice.

"I've already spoken to Coach Wang. Lu Bolin said, "You can sign it first after you see it." ”

"Now?"

"Of course, not necessarily now. Lu Bolin smiled, "You can also take it back." ”

"No need. Jiang Xin picked up the signature pen that Lu Bolin had prepared on the table. "I'll sign it now. ”

After Lu Bolin put the contract away, Jiang Xin raised his eyes and looked at him with a look that wanted to say something. Maybe it wasn't necessary—but she wanted to confirm Han Lu's current situation.

"Mr. Lu. She said, "Sister Han Lu is ...... now"

Han Lu is doing rehabilitation training in the United States. Lu Bolin replied, "Next season, she should be able to return." ”

"What ......does it mean to be able to return?"

"To be able to come back means to be back in the game. Lu Bolin said ambiguously.

"Aren't you going to see her in the United States?"

"I'll go. Lu Bolin said, "When you go to the United States to shoot commercials, I will also go with you." At that time. ”

When Jiang Xin returned to the hotel from Starbucks, it was already late, but when she walked to the front of the room, she unexpectedly saw Xu Haoyang standing against the wall, looking like he was waiting for her. She frowned and walked over.

"Haoyang?" she began, "what's the matter at such a late hour?"

"Where did you go?"

"Had a coffee with a friend. Jiang Xin replied, "It's so late, what's the matter?"

"As for the details of next season's choreography," Xu Haoyang said, "I discussed it again with my teacher today, and now the first half has basically taken shape, but there are still a few details that need to refer to your opinion." Because the results on our side should be given to the teacher as soon as possible, I hope you can take a look at it tonight. ”

"I see. Jiang Xin said, "Come in." ”

They sat down on the couch in the hotel room, Xu Haoyang opened the laptop, played the music he wanted to use, and opened a music arrangement software.

Xu Haoyang himself has the ability to arrange music, and when they were young, they also performed several performances arranged and choreographed by Xu Haoyang himself, but the result was not so ideal, and the time was too tight, so they slowly gave up this thing.

Now, when Jiang Xin saw that Xu Haoyang had picked up this boring thing again, and was still interested in needing her opinion, he suddenly felt very anxious. She endured it patiently, listening to Xu Haoyang meticulously, even tangledly, studying the ice maneuvers that he thought they would do, but in fact they would never do.

In addition to her anxiety, she actually had some guilt and regret in her heart.

She did like this guy and wanted to be on the top of the championship with him.

However, she apologizes for being sorry, she will not regret what she said to Liu Bofei, nor will she regret the name she just signed.

On a road, there will always be people who are sacrificed.

"Regarding the spiral, Coach Liu said that our footwork speed is a bit slow. Xu Haoyang said, "My side is not squatting firmly enough, and the lifting speed is a little lacking." Now we're thinking about choreographing the spiral into the opening section......"

When Xu Haoyang said this, a pop-up window suddenly popped up on the computer, which was the push of the sports forum they usually watch in their spare time.

Generally speaking, this kind of thing is just a glance at the title, however, this title made Xu Haoyang and Jiang Xin stunned at the same time.

"Believe it or not, your big brother Yulu is not a sprain, but a ruptured Achilles tendon. I'll know when I wake up tomorrow."

It was an anonymous post, and I don't know who it came from or where it came from. The domestic time is an hour behind South Korea, and now is the time period for netizens to gossip before going to bed, so the comments at the bottom of the post immediately lined up.

Really?

Don't talk nonsense.

Hehe, who knows. Nine times out of ten, I think it's true news. When this matter broke out, the commercial endorsement was over, and Brother Yulu couldn't afford to pay for selling his house and land.

Insiders have known it for a long time. I have never dared to say that I am afraid of receiving a lawyer's letter, and the figure skating team can't afford to provoke it.

LS for details?

If it's true, I'll eat the computer live.

Wait for LS to eat the computer.

+1。

Wait tomorrow, when the news comes out, LSS will have to eat the computer, build a live broadcast room in advance, and we will watch.

Jiang Xin looked at the title and message, and his heart beat very fast.

Achilles tendon rupture. She repeated those four words in her mind.

Her mood was very complicated, and a feeling mixed with excitement, emotion, and happiness blocked her heart.

In this moment, she became more aware of the weight of her choice—one that would lead her down a very different path than before.

At the domestic figure skating center, which is less than an hour away, it's a lot more chaotic than their hotel rooms. Liu Bofei didn't close his eyes almost overnight, and he watched the things that they had tried to cover up and bury were exposed to everyone's eyes in this embarrassed posture.
