At Xiaodong’s house.
The trio were getting extremely worried.
Amy said, “Will Teacher Zhang be able to handle it?”
Li Xiaoxian said, “There isn’t much time left.”
Xiaodong said, “I only wonder if it can be dealt with before the concert happens in a few days.”
Li Xiaoxian said, “I guess we can only leave it to Teacher Zhang.”
Amy said, “I’m only afraid that they wouldn’t even give face to Teacher Zhang.”
The three of them had gone solo for nearly two years now. Ever since Spring Garden was forced to disband over a contract dispute with their talent agency, their days have not been smooth sailing. They were one of the most famous girl groups in Asia, and every member had their own fanbase within the group. However, since going their separate ways, their fans followed suit and went their own ways as well. With the impact from the “male idol” effect, their appeal fell as their popularity dropped by leaps and bounds. As a result, the name of Spring Garden became a memory of the people. Seeing how Zhang Ye had returned and took victory at the competition, they felt really envious of him. They wanted to get back together and be like Zhang Ye, to battle again in show business as the three sisters!
Perhaps their futures were not guaranteed.
Perhaps there wasn’t going to be any glory.
But they still wished to try. They really did.
…
Monday.
In the morning.
After sending his daughter to school and his wife to work, Zhang Ye parked his car at the curb. He took out his cell phone to call the number Amy had given to him.
Du du.
The call connected.
On the other end, it was a woman who answered.
“Hello, this is Tianhe Entertainment.”
“I’m looking for CEO Li.”
“You are?”
“I am Zhang Ye.”
“Ah?”
“I’m looking for CEO Li regarding some business. Can I make an appointment?”
“CEO Li has gone on a work trip and will probably be back on—”
“Please help me to get in touch with him.”
“Alright, I’ll pass along the message.”
After hanging up, Zhang Ye gave a sneer.
Work trip?
Amy clearly told him that CEO Li was in the country.
Zhang Ye understood that the other party did not wish to see him. When he thought of that, he turned the steering wheel and stepped on the accelerator, heading straight for the headquarters of Tianhe Entertainment.
At the company entrance.
Zhang Ye stepped on the brakes and parked, got out of the car, and headed straight in.
When several of the security guards and staff saw him, they were stunned.
“Oh my God!”
“Zhang…Zhang Ye?”
“What is he doing here?”
Seeing him here, everyone became terrified. They obviously did not think that their Tianhe Entertainment could have possibly signed Zhang Ye under its wing since it was well-known that he had never signed with any talent agency before. So when Zhang Ye appeared here, everyone could sense that something bad was about to happen. Especially when it was also common knowledge that Amy’s relationship with the talent agency had soured.
A male idol had just come down from upstairs.
It was Hai Yifei. He was a member of Tianhe Entertainment as well.
Hai Yifei was also taken aback. “Teacher Zhang?”
Zhang Ye did not look at him and went straight into the elevator.
The security guards had wanted to stop him. But in the end, none of them dared to make a move.
Everyone had heard of Zhang Ye’s notoriety. Even after three to four years, no one dared to provoke him.
A security guard said, “Something bad is gonna happen!”
The receptionist said, “Quickly call upstairs to inform them!”
Ding.
Upstairs, the elevator arrived.
When Zhang Ye stepped out, he was greeted by the sight of a female secretary running over in panic. “Teacher Zhang, why are you here? CEO Li is not around, he’s—”
Judging by her voice, she was definitely the woman who had answered his call.
Zhang Ye ignored her and walked forward with narrowed eyes.
The female secretary was getting anxious. “Aiyo, Teacher Zhang! Teacher Zhang, what are you doing!”
The office was just up ahead.
Zhang Ye didn’t even bother to knock before pushing the door open.
A middle-aged man was sitting at his desk and taking a call. When he saw Zhang Ye, he was startled before immediately saying to the person on the phone: “Old Chu, something has cropped up over here. I have to hang up.”
Zhang Ye smiled. “CEO Li, you’re back so soon from your work trip?”
The female secretary looked very embarrassed.
But CEO Li put on a smiling face. “Well, if it isn’t Teacher Zhang! Please, come in!”
Zhang Ye did not keep harping on this. “CEO Li, sorry for coming uninvited today.”
“You’re always welcome here. I’ve been thinking about buying you dinner ever since you came back, but I couldn’t find an opportunity to do so.” CEO Li asked, “Is Minister Wu well?”
Zhang Ye smiled and said, “She’s pretty good.”
The two of them were not friends, but neither were they strangers. Although Zhang Ye didn’t have a particularly good network, he still knew quite a lot of people in the entertainment industry from back then.
The two of them sat down.
The female secretary served him tea with a bitter smile.
CEO Li asked, “What brought you here?”
Zhang Ye didn’t beat around the bush. “Amy’s contract, please try to resolve it.”
CEO Li looked troubled. “Oh, that matter?”
Zhang Ye said, “They were the most successful girl group in the country with no one else coming close. Now that they’ve disbanded, only Amy remains contracted to your company, yet you’re not giving her any support or giving work to her. She still has to make a living, doesn’t she? Since that’s the case, wouldn’t it be better to just let her go? We’re all industry insiders and can’t avoid seeing each other. It won’t do any of us any good by making matters the way they are now. How about this, CEO Li? I won’t make things difficult for you. Just treat it like I owe you a favor. Sever her from her contract and name the compensation amount. I’ll pay on Amy’s behalf.”
CEO Li did not say anything.
The female secretary suddenly said, “That won’t do. Amy’s matter is very complicated. Back then, she—”
Zhang Ye gave her a look.
“I’m speaking with Teacher Zhang here. What business is it of yours?” CEO Li interrupted his secretary.
The female secretary shut her mouth.
CEO Li looked at Zhang Ye. “Teacher Zhang, since you’re putting it like that, alright, I’ll do it for your sake. We won’t even mention the compensation since that would be disrespectful.” He then instructed his secretary, “Get in touch with the legal department. Terminate Amy’s contract by the end of today!”
The female secretary replied, “Yes, sir!”
Zhang Ye smiled and said, “Thank you very much, CEO Li.”
Within ten minutes.
Zhang Ye left.
CEO Li heaved a sigh of relief.
The female secretary also came back at this time.
CEO Li asked, “Is it done?”
The female secretary said in an agonized manner, “It’s done. The contract has been sorted out. We just need to wait for Amy to get here. The contract can be terminated at any time after that.”
“Alright,” CEO Li said.
The female secretary asked out of curiosity, “Why did you agree to his request?”
Several of the deputy CEOs also came in after knocking.
“CEO Li.”
“Amy has been released from her contract?”
“But why?!”
“You didn’t even ask for any compensation?”
CEO Li threw his hands up. “Enough, stop talking about this. Let’s just leave it as that.” He sighed and said, “Zhang Ye came calling, so we have to give him face.”
When everyone heard that, they couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
CEO Li said, “It isn’t easy to get Zhang Ye to owe us a favor. His wife is in a high place, so there will surely be an opportunity to get his help someday. Moreover, it’s not like you all don’t know what Zhang Ye’s temper is like. Now that he’s back, my guess is that the entertainment industry is going to turn chaotic again, so let’s avoid being the bird that sticks our head out first. Hai, with Zhang Ye on the right and Minister Wu on the left, we better not rile them up!”
Everyone looked at one another.
That’s right.
One was a hooligan.
The other was a minister.
Who could they afford to offend?
…
Outside.
Zhang Ye called up Amy.
“Teacher Zhang?”
“The problem has been resolved. You just need to come down to Tianhe Entertainment to finalize things.”
“What?”
“Hurry up and come over to terminate the contract.”
“Damn, I love you to death, Teacher Zhang!”
On at the other end of the line, Amy, Xiaodong, and Li Xiaoxian cheered!
It had really been dealt with?
Amy had regained her freedom?
Teacher Zhang was truly influential!
They couldn’t hide their excitement. They were overjoyed at the outcome!
Two years!
It had been a whole two years!
Their Spring Garden group was finally able to make a comeback!
Xiaodong immediately said: “Teacher Zhang, for the concert that is happening soon, we’re now officially inviting you to be our concert’s guest to support us with your singing. You have to come no matter what, alright?!”
Amy shouted: “Yes, yes, yes! You definitely have to come!”
Zhang Ye was very happy for them too. He said with a hearty laugh: “Sure, for this important occasion, I will definitely be there. I’ll write you three another song, so let’s have fun together! During the concert that I held in Olympic Stadium, I gave you all my promise that we’d perform together once more. In the end, I stood you up, so I’ll have to make it up to you this time. Treat it as a gift from me!”
Li Xiaoxian yelled: “That’s great!”
Amy shouted: “Lord Zhang, what a loyal friend!”
Xiaodong said: “Hahahaha, let’s get all our friends from back then to attend the concert. We can all have fun together!”
