26: Chapter 26, "The Big Fish," from "The One I Love."

The woman smiled happily, with a hint of mockery, and swayed her hips as she walked over.

The person who arrived was Li Wei, Chen Shaoping’s ex-girlfriend.

She was also the resident singer at this Dream Fate Bar.

Chen Shaoping really didn't want to run into her, but he had bad luck and did anyway.

“Li Wei, stop being so self-important. I didn't come here to see you. Get away from me, you're polluting the air around me.”

Li Wei wasn't angry; instead, she smiled, with a knowing expression on her face.

“Chen Shaoping, stop pretending. There are no outsiders here, it's not good to overdo it.”

“I'm asking you, are the two songs ‘the only one’ and ‘later’ that are currently blowing up online written by you?”

“Although I think it's highly unlikely, the name ‘Young Master Ping’ is too much like you.”

The speaker had no intention, but the listener took it to heart.

Zhou Bule also liked these two songs very much and had sung them privately.

He knew that both songs were released by Tongxing Entertainment Company.

He looked at the business card in his hand.

It was very likely that it was written by the person in front of him.

Chen Shaoping felt a bit helpless; Li Wei knew his background too well, but he didn't intend to admit it.

“I didn't write it.”

“I know you didn't write it, I just asked casually.”

“If you want to get back together with me, no matter what method you use, find a song of the same quality as these two, suitable for me to sing.”

“Then I'll agree.”

Li Wei jumped up happily, even more delighted than when she first saw Chen Shaoping at Dream Fate Bar.

Her restless heart also calmed down. A loser is still a loser, it was definitely the right choice to leave him.

Chen Shaoping looked at Li Wei as if she were an idiot, wondering where she got such great confidence.

“Idiot, fool!”

He turned to Zhou Bule and said,

“Zhou Bule, let's go outside and talk, it's too noisy here.”

“There's an annoying fly buzzing around here, it's driving me crazy.”

Zhou Bule actually didn't like such occasions, but he was in a bad mood today and inexplicably walked in.

“Okay.”

The two walked out.

Li Wei, however, wouldn't have it. She grabbed Chen Shaoping's hands and demanded, “What do you mean? Are you agreeing or not?”

“I'll agree to your grandma's leg!”

Chen Shaoping forcefully shook off her hand and walked straight out.

Li Wei didn't continue to chase. The center of the stage was already calling her name, inviting her to sing and drink.

She had already decided in her heart that even if Chen Shaoping really came with a song to get back together with her, it wouldn't work.

At least two songs.

He had to pay the price for his attitude.

She smiled and turned to walk towards the stage.

After Chen Shaoping and Zhou Bule came out, they went to Shaxian Snacks again.

“Boss, we'll sit here for a bit.”

Chen Shaoping shouted inside.

“Sure, make yourselves at home.” The boss poked his head out and glanced at them.

“What have you decided?” Chen Shaoping asked again.

Zhou Bule was noticeably excited, different from his demeanor in the bar.

“Young Master Ping, that's you, right?”

Then he suddenly deflated like a punctured ball, looking disheartened.

“But I was eliminated in the competition, and my ranking wasn't good.”

Chen Shaoping muttered inwardly, if your ranking was good, it probably wouldn't be my turn.

“I want your voice, not your ranking.”

“I am indeed Young Master Ping. If you join the company, I will also write songs for you.”

“Really? Good, I agree.” Zhou Bule's eyes gleamed with desire, no longer hesitating.

“Alright, then I'll wait for you at the company tomorrow all day. I won't wait if you're late.”

“Okay, CEO Chen.”

Back home, Chen Shaoping still felt a bit unaccustomed to the spacious room.

However, showering here was much more comfortable than in Emerald Garden; the water pressure was stronger.

Lying on the bed, Chen Shaoping found it hard to fall asleep, his mind constantly wondering what Zhang Ying across the hall was doing, and if she was also still awake.

But he didn't last long; his eyelids started to droop, and he fell into a deep sleep.

He didn't even check the refreshed intelligence in time.

The next day.

As people woke from their sleep and dragged their tired bodies back to work.

An explosive news story spread online and quickly dominated the search headlines of major websites.

“I am reporting under my real name: The Stunning Multi-talented Celebrity Bingbing, sky-high remuneration, 6 million in 4 days... signed multiple large and small contracts, Yin-Yang Contracts, and evaded a huge amount of taxes. Please Dragon Country Tax Bureau thoroughly investigate. Evidence has already been submitted to the police.” @Dragon Country Tax Bureau @Baiyun District Police Station.

The article also included dozens of contract photos.

For this, Shao Ping posted multiple Qingbo updates.

At the same time Chen Shaoping uploaded the photos.

Tian Jun walked into Director Lu Sihai's office with the evidence he had given him.

Three minutes later, Tian Jun walked out of the Director's office with the evidence.

He drove the police car towards the Tax Bureau.

Netizens online were already active, and the discussion topics were roughly divided into these categories.

First: Is this gossip true, and is it juicy?

Second: Based on the existing contract photos, discuss the amount of tax evasion.

Third: Scolding Bingbing and Shao Ping.

Fourth: Knowing that actors make money, but not realizing they make this much. The money earned in one minute is equivalent to two months' salary for most netizens.

Tongxing Entertainment Company.

Receptionist Zhou Juan led Zhou Bule into Chen Shaoping's office. Li Qian was also there.

The office was also prepared by Li Qian.

“CEO Chen.”

Zhou Bule was more energetic than last night, and also a bit more reserved.

“CEO Li, this is the first artist I've signed for the company, Zhou Bule.”

“Please arrange for him to sign the contract.”

In the morning, Li Qian knew Chen Shaoping was going to sign an artist, but she didn't expect him to be so ordinary.

Not handsome, not tall.

In terms of looks alone, he was far inferior to her Wang Bo.

The idol path was blocked.

However, she didn't ask further and took Zhou Bule to sign the contract.

After the two left, Chen Shaoping began to check the intelligence.

【Today's Intelligence 1 (★★): 'Hang City Wahaha Group Co., Ltd.' is looking for sunny and handsome male celebrities to cooperate with to promote the company's Wahaha Mineral Water.

Company Chairman Zhong Qinghou is on a flight from Hang City to Yangcheng, expected to check into Jingjiang Hotel room 1708 at 1:30 PM. He will stay at the hotel for two hours, then go out for business, and fly back to Hang City at 5:00 PM.】

【Today's Intelligence 2 (★): Director Chen Zhirang is looking for a theme song for his animated film “begonia.” This intelligence is valid for three days. Chen Zhirang's office address: Fuguo Building, 22nd floor, phone: 186】

After carefully reading the intelligence, the system's prompt sound rang out.

【Ding! Congratulations, Host, for completing one piece of intelligence, you have gained 5 paparazzi points.】

【Host has paparazzi points: 7 points.】

It seemed Zhou Bule had already completed the signing.

Chen Shaoping had just spent 2 paparazzi points to redeem the songs “big fish” and “the one i love is you.”

Just then, Li Qian and Zhou Bule walked in.

“Signed?”

“Mm.”

Chen Shaoping sent the song “big fish” to Li Qian.

“Sister Qian, I sent you a song. Please arrange for Zhou Bule to record a demo as soon as possible, then go find Director Chen Zhirang.”

“I've sent you the address and phone number. Make sure it's done within three days, and have him use this song as the theme song.”

“Also, what is Wang Bo doing? Tell him to come here immediately.”
