Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Cruel Reality

During this time,

Chen Ming's deposit is no more, no less.

Carefully calculated,

If you deduct the fees for Yuncheng University's classes and daily expenses, Chen Ming's card should still have 30,000 or 40,000 yuan in savings.

And now,

After Chen Ming signed the temporary contract, he would pay an extra 12,000 yuan a month.

Now,

Chen Ming doesn't have to worry about money at all.

Case

Chen Ming planned to put another thing on the agenda.

Uproot!

The rental house he had been living in was too shabby, especially now that it was autumn, and the slightest cold wind would penetrate through the cracks in the walls and windows at night.

On several occasions,

Chen Ming was awakened by freezing.

If it's winter, the temperature in the room may be lower.

He doesn't have to worry about money now, so he naturally wants to change to a more comfortable residence.

Thinking of this,

Chen Ming began to pay attention to some rental information on his mobile phone.

He plans to rent a house between Cloud City University and the bar, so that it won't take a lot of time to run back and forth between the two sides.

Monday night,

Chen Ming came to the bar early.

He is not very familiar with renting a house, so he needs to consult Li Chong.

Li Chong was more familiar with the houses in the vicinity, and after learning that Chen Ming wanted to move, he also wrote down the matter in his heart, and then helped Chen Ming to ask.

Two days later, Li Chong made a phone call to Chen Ming.

Ask Chen Ming to meet in the Bipin community.

Bipin Community,

This place is also a well-known residential area in Cloud City.

It's a small villa area.

But because of the architectural planning here in Cloud City, the transportation is not very convenient, so the landlords here will choose to rent out the house.

The rent is decent, but the setting is nice.

When Chen Ming arrived here, Li Chong was squatting on the side of the road and making a phone call.

Seeing Chen Ming,

Li Chong motioned to Chen Ming to wait, and an old voice faintly came from the other end of the phone.

Ten minutes later,

Li Chong put away the phone and walked towards Chen Ming: "My dad called, I'm sorry." ”

"We have a relationship, do we still need to talk about this?"

Chen Ming was quite helpless.

Li Chong laughed honestly, and said in a mysterious voice: "I asked you, the original owner of this house behind me is from Kyoto, and he hasn't stayed in Cloud City for a long time, so he wants to sell this house." ”

Chen Ming was stunned: "Brother Li, I only have tens of thousands of yuan on me, how can I afford to buy a house?!" Let's change places. ”

Li Chong hurriedly grabbed Chen Ming: "Don't worry, listen to me." ”

"But you also know that this place is inaccessible, and the owner of this house is reluctant to sell at a reduced price, so he wants to switch to a long-term rental."

"One-time lease for one year, you can get a 20% discount!"

Wen Yan,

Chen Ming asked curiously, "How much does it cost to rent for a year?" ”

Speaking of which,

Li Chong raised two fingers.

20,000 yuan!

It's not really expensive.

If you give another 80% discount, it only costs 16,000.

"Then meet the original owner."

Chen Ming said.

Li Chong nodded and made a call to the landlord.

Not long after,

A young man in a suit trotted over with a briefcase: "It's just the two of you who want to see the house, right?" ”

"The original owner of this house entrusted me with the rent."

Case

Chen Ming didn't say much.

Open the door.

Chen Ming's heart was even more satisfied, but he didn't expect that there was a courtyard of more than ten square meters in front of this house.

Not only that,

The small courtyard is filled with a variety of flowers.

Now in autumn,

Most of the flowers have withered, but there are a few special ones that stand upright.

Vaguely,

A burst of fragrance enters the nose, which makes people feel refreshed.

Further inside, it's a two-bedroom shared house, with the door facing the coffee table in the living room and the kitchenette behind the sofa.

After the introduction of the man in the suit, Chen Ming was more satisfied with the layout of the room.

Half an hour later,

The man in the suit smiled kindly: "The layout of the two-bedroom apartment, if you think the rent is too expensive, you can find someone to come and share the rent." ”

"But the original owner loves cleanliness and will come to check from time to time, I hope you and your friends will try to be as tidy as possible."

Chen Ming nodded.

After looking at the living room again, I finally decided.

That's it!

"Sign the contract."

Chen Ming said with a smile.

The man in the suit thought that Chen Ming would bargain again, but he didn't expect to agree so happily.

At this moment,

Chen Ming suddenly spoke again: "If I rent it for a year, I will get a 20% discount; So if I rent it for two years, how much discount? ”

Wen Yan,

The man in the suit was stunned.

A few seconds later,

He picked up his phone and smiled apologetically: "I need to ask the original owner about this, please wait a moment." ”

Chen Ming and Li Chong sat down on the sofa.

Li Chong asked, "Chen Ming, when will you move, call me." ”

Chen Ming was a little embarrassed, as for the things in his house, he didn't need to ask someone to move them at all, he could pack them all up and take them away alone......

At this moment,

The man in the suit walked back, still with a professional smirk on his face: "If you really plan to rent for two years, I can give you a six-percent discount." ”

20,000 a year, 40,000 in two years.

Six percent off, that's 24,000!

Chen Ming's eyes lit up: "Then rent it for two years." ”

"Here's the contract, take a look."

After some tossing,

The man in the suit received a transfer of 24,000 and left the house key.

"There is a good house to live in!"

Chen Ming was a little excited.

Li Chong didn't stay long, it seemed that there was something going on at home.

Chen Ming didn't think much about it, but hurriedly ran back to his original rental house and packed some necessary things.

Move on the same day, move in on the same day!

Chen Ming was worried that Su Rou would still be unable to find him at every turn, so the moment he finished moving, he called Su Rou and told her the address of her new home.

On the other side,

After the man in the suit left, he returned to the rental center.

now

Here sat a beautiful-looking, youthful and lively girl, wearing a pair of big sunglasses, boringly turning the milk tea in her hand.

"Miss Xu, your house is rented out."

"The lease term is two years, the rent is 24,000 yuan, and the service fee on my side is 4,000 yuan, which is your 20,000 yuan, and I will transfer it to you."

Xu Chujing nodded indifferently.

After receiving the transfer reminder, Xu Chujing stood up and specially advised: "Don't reveal my identity." ”

The man in the suit nodded hurriedly.

After leaving,

Xu Chujing did not hesitate, took a taxi, and went straight to a building.

Looking up, it was actually Xingyu Entertainment.

"Hello Sister Xu."

"Sister Xu, your agent is looking for you."

Xu Chujing took off her sunglasses and sighed: "I know." ”

10th Floor,

In a room in the corner, the words "Xu Chujing" were written.

A middle-aged woman was already sitting in the room.

Xu Chujing just pushed the door in, and a complaint followed: "My little ancestor, where did you go?" ”

"I'm here to catch musicians and write songs all day long, it's good for you to run around idlely."

Between the words,

is full of dissatisfaction with Xu Chujing.

"Sister Min, I went out for a while."

"Any new songs?"

Xu Chujing asked worriedly.

In fact

She hasn't had a new song to sing for nearly a year......

Even a little diva like Xiao Xuan will be robbed of songs by artists from the same company, not to mention second-rate artists like her, and the contract signed is only a C-level contract.

It is difficult for a little singer to have a way out!

The main thing is that there are no songs to sing.

Chen Ming himself is full of originality, and naturally there is no shortage of songs; But Xu Chujing only has a good appearance and a good voice, and has no talent for creation at all.

Over the course of the year,

Xu Chujing has been waiting for the company's musicians to write songs for her.

But alas,

The company seems to have forgotten her......

Because there are no songs to sing, her original fans have gradually lost, and there is no fixed salary for the C-level contract, so Xu Chujing can only sell her car and rent out the house.

Right now

Xu Chujing only had less than 100,000 yuan in his body.

Among them, 20,000 yuan was still what she got from the rental center just now!

Sister Min sighed: "No." ”

This is the Xingyu Entertainment Cloud City Branch.

Some songs are given priority to high-level artists, and they go down layer by layer, and it is impossible for Xu Chu to sing quietly.

Wen Yan,

Xu Chujing was also extremely disappointed.

These days are too desperate!

There is no glimmer of hope in sight.....

Sister Min's eyes showed regret, but she quickly reined in: "From today on, I am not your agent anymore." ”

Xu Chujing was a little at a loss for an instant.

"Sister Min, don't be kidding."

Sister Min's tone was decisive: "I also have to eat, and I don't have any money to make with you, I'm sorry, I hope you can understand me." ”

Xu Chujing's eyes were slightly red, and he was silent.

When she first embarked on the road of singing, she thought that it would be very difficult, but when it was really such a difficult time, she still couldn't accept it in her heart.

After a long time,

Xu Chujing raised his head, his eyes revealing stubbornness: "These days, you have worked hard." ”

Sister Min wanted to speak and stopped, and finally shook her head and got up to leave.

Xu Chujing is a good person.

But people can't be eaten!

Especially in the entertainment industry, you need to have achievements.

Good people, good character, to put it bluntly, it's just a persona, if you're not popular, then there is no such thing as a person.

Because no one pays attention to you, who will you set up a person to see?

The room was silent.

Xu Chujing sat on the sofa and didn't know what he was thinking.

After a long time,

She lay down on the couch and curled herself up in a ball, like a wounded kitten, falling into a deep sleep.

A group of new artists will be introduced in the company every year, and a group of outdated artists will also be eliminated.

If she doesn't sing this month, the company will most likely terminate her contract.

Xu Chujing knew very well in his heart.

Her only way out was to find a musician to write songs for her.

Regardless of the quality of the songs, as long as there are songs, she can struggle for a while longer.

But where to find it?

Most of the musicians within the company are not in the company; And when you go outside and ask someone to write a song, you can't afford the cost of creating a song.

In my sleep,

Xu Chujing dreamed that when she first joined the company, many people were optimistic about her and thought that she could become a little diva like Xiao Xuan.

But now,

She's about to be knocked out of the ring.

reality

It's really brutal......
