We are all brothers, so what if I am your brother-in-law?

Chapter 167: It’s great to still be at the age of dreaming!

It was Huang Zhengming's assistant again. Jiang Cheng just looked up and said, "I'm busy."

If Huang Zhengming really wanted to see him and talk to him about something, he would be in the lounge. Even his assistant came over, proving that Huang Zhengming knew about it, but Huang Zhengming was unwilling to come over these few steps, and always asked his assistant to come and call him.

It was obvious that she looked down on him based on his status, and Jiang Cheng knew that many business people would use such small details to overwhelm the other party in momentum before business negotiations, and use this method to control the rhythm step by step.

But Jiang Cheng didn't buy it. Although his current status was indeed far different from Huang Zhengming's, he didn't have anything to ask of Huang Zhengming, so why should he lick his boots?

If we don't agree, just refuse.

The female assistant wearing glasses frowned after hearing Jiang Cheng's words, her eyes swept over the people in the lounge, paused on Chen Shu for a moment, then nodded and said, "I see, I will convey your meaning."

"Boss, I think you should go and meet them. I feel like they are not easy to talk to." Ye Qing, who was sitting next to him, said in a low voice, because she had just noticed that the female assistant had a very sharp look in her eyes.

Jiang Cheng glanced at her and said, "You are too weak and easy to be bullied."

“First of all, you have to understand that the purpose of our participation in this show is fame, and the purpose of fame is to make money.

"No matter how powerful Huang Zhengming is, can he give us money? No."

"It's nothing more than cooperating to make money together, but it must be profitable for us. He wants to make money from us before cooperating, but his attitude is not sincere. He just wants to control us. Do you think I should give him the money myself?"

"There's nothing wrong with giving money, but he doesn't deserve it."

After Jiang Cheng finished speaking, he curled his lips at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing stared at Jiang Cheng with a dull expression on her face. In her mind, Jiang Cheng had always been a very strict and Buddhist person.

It was the first time she heard such words of interest game from Jiang Cheng.

I was suddenly surprised.

"It seems that my understanding of the boss is not comprehensive."

However, Jiang Cheng's words also gave her a feeling of enlightenment. She thought that she was too weak, so she had always been the target of bullying.

Chen Shuo, who was sitting next to him, looked at Jiang Cheng with flickering eyes. She found it hard to believe that these words came from the mouth of a young man who was less than 20 years old.

The boy in front of him was more mature than his age, which made Chen Shu curious.

I think I am already in my early 40s now. If I were 20 years earlier, I would have admired a boy like this very much.

"Boss, can I touch up my makeup?" Ye Qing, who was sitting next to him, asked in a low voice.

Jiang Cheng said: "What's wrong? Do you want me to help you touch up your makeup?"

Ye Qing pursed her lips and said nothing.

dong dong dong.

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door. Jiang Cheng turned around and saw Huang Zhengming standing at the door.

He was tall and stood at the door of the lounge, as if blocking the entire door, looking at Jiang Cheng with a smile on his face.

"Can I bother you for a minute?"

Jiang Cheng stood up and said, "Teacher Huang, please take a seat."

Since the other party came in person, Jiang Cheng would definitely not put on airs and would still have to show the most basic courtesy.

Huang Zhengming walked in with a smile on his face, but he didn't find a place to sit. Instead, he leaned on the table next to Jiang Cheng and motioned Jiang Cheng to sit down. Jiang Cheng was not polite and sat on the chair, looking at Huang Zhengming and waiting for him to say something.

Huang Zhengming first glanced around, and when he saw Chen Shu was also here, he immediately raised his voice and said, "Teacher Chen Shu is here too, long time no see."

Chen Shu nodded with a smile and said, "Long time no see."

Huang Zhengming said: "Mr. Chen Shu lives a carefree life. He has not been in the circle for so many years and has not contacted me. Now it is difficult to hear Mr. Chen Shu sing a song."

Chen Shu's face looked a little ugly, but he still forced a smile and nodded without responding.

She doesn’t live a carefree life. Her fans may not understand, but doesn’t Huang Zhengming know?

She hasn't produced any outstanding works in recent years. At her last concert 10 years ago, the seats were empty and she couldn't even see anyone standing on the stage.

Even the empty stadium at that concert didn't make headlines.

In the following years, many people approached her, but most of them wanted to hype her up or even attract attention.

Fortunately, I had some savings from previous years that allowed me to eat, so I rejected them all and did not ruin the reputation I had built up before.

But if she really sings, who would buy a ticket to listen?
So Huang Zhengming's words sounded like a mockery. Or maybe she thought that she was just too sensitive.

Huang Zhengming saw Chen Shu's reaction, raised his eyebrows and said no more, looking at Jiang Cheng and said: "You are very popular now, do you have any idea to go further?"

Huang Zhengming was very direct, without any euphemism. He threw a pie to Jiang Cheng at the beginning, but this pie was a bit inexplicable.

Jiang Cheng frowned, looked at Huang Zhengming and said, "What does Mr. Huang Zhengming mean?"

Huang Zhengming smiled, then stretched out a finger, looked at Ye Qing, nodded at Ye Qing, then looked at Jiang Cheng and nodded at Jiang Cheng again and said: "My company's door is open to you two. I think it's a good development path. Sign with my company. In this variety show, I will at least let you get the top three.

"The program team has made a temporary change, and many big names will start participating in this episode. You can imagine how popular the top three will be. There will be many big names to serve as foils and supporting roles for you."

Direct enough.

But Jiang Cheng also smiled and looked at Huang Zhengming.

"If I refuse to sign a contract with Mr. Huang's company, then I won't be able to get into the top three?" Jiang Cheng asked.

The two looked at each other with smiles on their faces, as if they were old friends chatting, but the swordplay in their words made Ye Qing, who was standing beside them, tremble with fear.

She looked at Jiang Cheng in a daze for a moment. Her boss was always gentle and seemed harmless, but he was always the same no matter who he was in front of. This was very scary.

Chen Shuo's gaze shifted between Jiang Cheng and Huang Zhengming, and his expression looked a little ugly.

In this circle, it is not necessarily that you will have a future just because you are a good singer or songwriter. She remembered a sentence she had read somewhere: the world is not about fighting and killing, but about the ways of the world.

This sentence is very apt.

There are too many examples of people who may not be able to succeed even if they have talent.

"Hahaha." Huang Zhengming laughed.

Then he seemed to want to say something but stopped himself from laughing, as if he had heard a huge joke that made him unable to recover for a while.

After a while, he patted Jiang Cheng on the shoulder and said, "You are still at the age of dreaming, how great."
