RPAGF Chapter 22: A New Beginning!
Chapter 22: A New Beginning!
Qin Lan must have made some concessions in terms of resources, otherwise neither side would have agreed to the proposal so easily.
However, since Qin Lan didn't want to talk about it, Li Mo didn't want to press her for an answer.
No wonder so many people want to find a rich woman.
Sometimes, all your hard work can't compare to someone else's simple statement: "Rich lady, I'm hungry!"
Li Mo kept Qin Lan's kindness in his heart.
That evening, Li Mo and Qin Lan relived their first encounter, this time at "one hour and fifty-eight minutes!"
Shortly thereafter, Li Mo and Jiaxing officially terminated their contract.
Meanwhile, unseen by the public, a new studio quietly appeared under Wostar Films.
"Wostar Li Mo Studio"
In addition to the necessary staff, Yang Chaoyue was also transferred to the studio by Li Mo as a "trainee".
At this point, Li Mo and Yang Chaoyue finally had their own official home.
However, speaking of Yang Chaoyue, she is about to retire from her position as Li Mo's assistant, and Li Mo plans to send her to the company to learn new skills.
This timeframe is roughly after filming for "Swords of Legends" wraps up, at least allowing her to stay on one film set.
Who's next?
Of course, the minor incident involving Li Mo did not affect the filming schedule of "Swords of Legends".
Apart from Dilraba herself being a little unaccustomed to it, everyone else was completely unaffected.
Hot Bar's discomfort was evident in many aspects.
First of all, she felt somewhat abandoned, since she and Li Mo would no longer be working in the same company.
This was something they hadn't considered before. Once they left the film set, their future meetings would inevitably be affected.
In addition, when she accompanied Li Mo to go through the procedures and sign the contract with Woxing, she saw the extremely simple and tempting contract.
A feeling of unreality arose in her heart.
The contract states:
Wostar Films will fully cooperate with Li Mo's business empire, with the revenue split 90/10, and the company taking only 10% for its operating expenses.
In addition, some other terms are also very lenient.
The implication behind this contract is that if Li Mo wanted to leave Woxing today, he wouldn't even have to wait until tomorrow; he could leave this afternoon.
So much freedom! I'm so envious!
This has caused Dilraba to be a bit out of sorts while filming these past two days, a condition that Yang Mi noticed.
Therefore, after filming wrapped up for a day, she specifically sought out Reba for a talk.
"You want to leave too?"
That one sentence brought Reba's wild fantasies back to reality.
How did they manage to see through it?
Looking into Yang Mi's beautiful yet dangerous eyes, Dilraba hurriedly shook her head. As the saying goes, loyalty without absolute loyalty is absolute disloyalty.
Therefore, she stated her position very absolutely:
"I'm going to work at Jaywalk Studio for the rest of my life! Honey, you're the only sun in my heart! I'd do anything for you! Please don't doubt my loyalty!"
Yang Mi felt like she'd heard those words somewhere before, and then she pulled out a contract.
"Then sign the new contract, and extend the term by five years."
What to do, what to do?
What if your boss actually believes your pledge of loyalty?
"Uh...uh..."
Unlike Li Mo, Reba didn't have the thick skin to speak; she stammered and couldn't get a word out for a long time.
Upon seeing this, Yang Mi instantly recalled what had happened that day, and the scene of Li Mo leaving Jiaxing with a smug look on her face.
Yang Mi raised an eyebrow and said in a sarcastic tone:
"Why does this sound so familiar? Did you not learn the essence from Li Mo? He was much more expressive than you that day."
Why don't you call and ask Li Mo to teach you how to fool people later?
Left with no other choice, Dilraba had to resign herself to signing the contract.
While signing, Reba was also wondering what Li Mo would say.
Li Mo: After I say "I love you" one day, you can check my phone and then you'll know what I'll say.
The new contract significantly improved Dilraba's treatment, and the corresponding penalty for breach of contract and the contract term also increased accordingly.
It can only be said that if Li Mo wants to rescue Dilraba from Jaywalk Studio in the future, he will have to have another go with Yang Mi.
...
Soon, as the cicadas began to sing again, the recording of "The Voice of China" entered its second episode.
The second recording session was a mentor assessment.
Each team consists of fourteen people, divided into seven groups, with each pair singing in a PK competition.
Baoshan Gymnasium, Shanghai.
With the team's coordination, Li Mo dressed up in a simple style that was both warm and sophisticated.
A low-saturation, off-white mink fleece sweater paired with structured wide-leg PU trousers.
Bathed in warm lighting, the atmosphere evokes a cozy, autumnal feeling, perfect for a boyfriend at home.
After finishing her styling, Li Mo looked at Yao Bei, who was her partner for the day.
After the last episode ended, Li Mo was assigned to the same group as Yao Bei, a girl Li Mo knew.
They are very strong; Li Mo and Yao Beina were the most eye-catching in the first round.
This put the two of them together – that's pretty cool!
It was obvious to Li Mo who the production team had chosen to bet on.
As the recording of the show began, it soon came to Li Mo and the other person. This time, Na Ying chose the song "If There Were No You" for them.
The original singer is Karen Mok. It's a song that's very suitable for female singers, and since it's a duet, the vocal ranges of both singers need to be considered.
So, for guys... they're a bit lacking.
There was no other way; Na Ying believed in Li Mo's abilities and said he could do it, and Li Mo couldn't change his mind, so she simply agreed.
The spotlights from the dome shone on the two, and the handsome man and beautiful woman naturally attracted the love of many viewers.
Especially after the last episode of "Nanshan Nan" became a hit, many female fans came specifically for Li Mo.
"Hey, I really miss you. It's starting to rain outside again."
As soon as Li Mo opened his mouth, his magnetic voice instantly captivated the audience, making them close their eyes and enter the story.
"If it weren't for you, if it weren't for the past, I wouldn't be heartbroken, but if there were a choice, I would still love you!"
As the melody gradually shifted, Li Mo's emotional tone set a good tone for the song.
My eyes are dry, and I feel like crying. I wonder where you are right now!
"Without you, there would be no past, no heartbreak..."
When Yao Bei's part came on, it instantly made the song more layered, and her light and ethereal voice brought a different flavor to the song.
It must be said that this song really suits her.
The chorus chorus featured unique high notes, elevating the audience's emotions to a new level.
"Are you thinking of me just as much as I am...?"
With the final line, their collaborative performance came to an end.
Female fans in the audience shouted Li Mo's name, and Li Mo responded with a smile.
Next came Na Ying's choice. In her mind, both of them were champions, so naturally she didn't want them to be paired together.
But there's nothing we can do, it's beyond our control!
Under the watchful eyes of the host and the audience, Na Ying became even more anxious, not thinking too much about anything else, focusing solely on the stage.
After thinking for a long time, Na Ying could no longer control her emotions and covered her face, not daring to look at the contestant who had not been chosen.
"I'm sorry, Li Mo, my choice is... Yao Bei."
