After Huo Yu and Su Tina left the room, Bai Shou locked the door of the conference room. Then, he wiped the non-existent dust on the table with his palms, sat upright and said, "Teacher Yan, do you know what this decision means?"

Song Wenbin said nothing and looked at Bai Shou, waiting for his performance.

"You are a smart person. You should know that the only superpower in this world is imagination. Without imagination, I simply can't imagine how boring and barren this world will become."

Song Wenbin's face was expressionless, so calm that he couldn't even see his breathing.

"Teacher Yan, your fans don't ask for much, a perfect setting, a Sigma man, a man not bound by desire, a man not controlled by women, that's all, that's all, you did it After all these years, no one has been more skilled than you, Teacher Wei, do you want to deprive me of such a little fantasy, such a little romance, such a little desire, and a little bit of luck? Isn't it too heartless?"

"Sigma man, hey, you work for Shen Tujia and are willing to give up yourself to become a woman's mouthpiece. Do you want to say this?" Song Wenbin asked lightly.

"That's me, that's my helplessness. It's precisely because I'm so helpless that we need you so much. We need Teacher Xian!" Bai Qi said sincerely: "I beg you, don't do it because of some short-term mood swings. Give up your career, you have to know that the opportunities you have now are something that many people can’t even dream of!”

"Secretary Bai, let me tell you, in fact, I never deliberately set up a personality. Can you accept it?"

"Of course, of course I believe it." Baikari said happily: "You are born to hate the teacher!"

"When I was a teacher, I really couldn't stand the right and wrong in society, and those women who worship money. Although there was a business element in it, I really couldn't stand some things, so I went to perform and live a life.

But now, I don’t want to be a teacher, and I do it sincerely. I can’t do it anymore. Those things that I couldn’t understand before, I have... I have..." Song Wenbin hesitated for a long time, and sighed: "I am not that good anymore. I can’t stand it anymore. Those things that once caused me psychological fluctuations can no longer touch me. Can you understand? "

"I can understand it, Teacher Wei. I didn't ask you to really hate them, and I didn't dare to do that. But now everyone recognizes you and everyone needs you. In fact, you don't have to do anything. You just need to show up. In front of the camera, when everyone calls you "teacher you hate," you respond and that's enough."

Silence, anticipation, silence, longing.

Feeling the complex emotions in the air, Song Wenbin finally shook his head and said softly: "I'm sorry, Secretary Bai, to disappoint you. I understand your good intentions, but I can't go against my heart. I can't do it. "

Silence, depression, coldness, scrutiny.

Bai Shou stood up, faced the wall for a while, and suddenly chuckled: "I still remember that when I just graduated from college, I was doing mobile phone evaluation, and my life was hard but free. I even fantasized about it at that time, and it has always been like this. It's not bad to go on. Unfortunately, my father later became seriously ill and had no money for treatment. That kind of reality is really disappointing. I can get to where I am today thanks to reality and Mr. Shen."

He turned around, walked to Song Wenbin, held the table in front of him, looked down at him and said: "Sometimes, when we reach the comfort zone, maybe we can only continue to move forward if reality pushes us. , isn’t it?”

Song Wenbin looked into his eyes and tensed up involuntarily, "What do you want to do?"

Baikari reached out, took out a USB flash drive, plugged it into the projector in the conference room, and pressed the remote control. Soon, a blur of light appeared in the projector.

There are a few blurry shadows in the picture, which are not very clear, but the voice is surprisingly familiar.

"No! You have to choose! It's just the two of us, no one else, we can't get married!"

"Look, the marriage rate in France is only 3%. We are not much better here. This system only lasted a hundred years from birth to death, so I have no intention of wasting time on it. It's useless for you to ask. "

"You know that's not what I'm asking. I just want to know who you like."

"like you."

Looking at the characters in the picture and listening to the familiar voice, Song Wenbin's pupils trembled.

Baikari clicked the remote control, and the screen quickly forwarded to another dark scene.

"If you can shed some blood like last time, maybe I will sleep with you once. In fact, I quite miss the feeling of that night. I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, thinking about why you didn't come up."

"You crazy person..."

"It was you who wanted to understand me. Now that you understand, let's go. It's still too late. Go find Sutina before she wakes up. She is more normal than me."

"No."

"No? What don't you want?"

"I like you pervert too."

The video was not well shot, with poor imaging, poor pixels, and blurry lighting, but the content in it is epic and exciting.

Song Wenbin stared at the content in the video with his mouth agape, his body trembled involuntarily, and endless chills surged up from the deepest part one after another. The chill soon turned into anger, intense anger.

It's hard to imagine that just a few minutes ago he had felt like nothing could make him angry.

"Do you want to continue playing, Teacher Yan?"

Bai Shou sat on the table in the conference room and shook the remote control in his hand: "The content here can be said to be very exciting, very, very, very exciting."

Scenes of the underground scene reappeared in my mind. The footprints in the ground, the inexplicably broken rope, and the deliberately prolonged rescue time. Everything pointed to the small USB drive in front of me.

"You...you..."

His face was pale and he looked at Bai Shou with wide eyes: "Are you plotting against me? Are you doing this to me??"

Bai Qi slowly walked over and put his hand on his shoulder: "Teacher Yan, you know, I really admire you. In that situation, even in the face of death, you can maintain your personality. , if it were me, I probably wouldn’t refuse Miss Huo. No, I definitely wouldn’t. Miss Huo is simply too foul, too foul, but... I’m afraid it’s not a good idea for you to eat two fishes like this. .”

He smiled narrowly. Song Wenbin stood up suddenly and grabbed Bai Shou's collar. He finally understood why this damn guy sent Huo Yu away. If Huo Yu saw such a private scene, he would be Someone secretly recorded it, for fear that Bai Shou would have his blood splattered in the conference room today.

"Do you think I'm easy to bully?" Veins popped up on the back of Song Wenbin's hands and forehead.

"Teacher Wei, no one dares to bully you, no one." Bai Shou said casually.

"You installed cameras in the cave without notifying me, broke the ropes, and trapped us in the cave for three whole days! You even filmed a video to threaten me! Now you actually have the nerve to say you didn't bully anyone, and There's nothing you can't do, aren't you afraid that I'll call the police!?" Song Wenbin's voice was stern.

"Is the person in the video a teacher?" Bai Shou asked with a smile.

Song Wenbin couldn't breathe, his head buzzed, and then he punched Bai Shou on the nose. He had been training for two or three years, and his physical fitness was far superior to that of Bai Shou who was sitting in the office. He could make his nose bleed with just one punch.

But Bai Shou, who had been punched by Song Wenbin, was not angry, but chuckled softly. He rejected the photographer who came to help, shook his head and took out a tissue from his pocket, and slowly wiped his nose and face. Blood at the corner of the mouth.

Song Wenbin looked at the frozen picture on the projection, and his heart was filled with emotions. Having traveled to so many countries, he had seen many dirty and despicable methods, but this was the first time that he had been treated so inappropriately.

"Is this your idea or your master's?" he asked Bai Shou.

"You think too much, Teacher." Bai Shou elegantly held a tissue and wiped the blood dripping on his white shirt: "Although Mr. Shen also attaches great importance to your project, Mr. Shen is very busy and has too many things. Projects, there are too many big things that need her to deal with.”

After a pause, Bai Shou said with a smile: "But, for some people it's different. For some people, this show is everything to them."

Song Wenbin was stunned, and then looked at Baoli beside him. There was incredible disbelief in his eyes.

Yes, the camera crew was watching from above.

Who can break the rope without their help.

Without their help, who could have secretly filmed underground without being discovered.

"Director?" He looked at Paulie's familiar yet unfamiliar face and didn't know what to say.

Pauly looked at Song Wenbin and shook his head: "You shouldn't leave this show."

"What? Now, you are still telling me these things???" Song Wenbin said in disbelief: "Did you arrange for people to make these things???"

Pauly did not answer Song Wenbin's question and said: "There are many things that I didn't expect."

"I'm asking you the hell if you did this!? Who on earth meant this!? Lock us underground and make us face the despair of life and death just to see how ugly we are!?" Song Wenbin said sharply roared.

"That's the intention of our film crew!!" Pauly also stood up unbearably and said loudly: "That's the intention of all of us, Teacher Yan, you went too far, so far that you didn't even look at the people behind you. !!”

"What??" Song Wenbin didn't understand. How could he ever feel sorry for his colleagues in the film crew?

"Do you think we are blind? You can't see that you want to retire. Sutina is the same. From the beginning of this episode, she has been talking about not filming or giving up, intentionally or unintentionally, and she has not put any thought into it at all. During the shooting, I wanted to end the shooting time and time again. How could I make my colleagues feel at ease? After the Northeast ended, no, as early as after the Pole ended, her relationship with you became closer and closer. This happened again and again. How could I make my colleagues feel at ease? If you can prevent colleagues from criticizing me, putting down the rope this time is just a kind reminder from everyone!"

"A kind reminder?" Song Wenbin shuddered and said incomprehensibly: "Wei Ning is also among them??"

"Weining doesn't want you to leave this show! He was the first to see that you no longer wanted to be a boring teacher. He was the first to see that you were no longer doing your job properly. He was the first to see that there was something fishy between you and your two female colleagues. He He was the first person to know that you didn’t want to continue filming the show! He proposed to do something to scare you once, so that you could get back to your way, but we didn’t expect that you would actually play so big down there!!”

Baoli's chest heaved violently and said: "But it's okay. It's okay that you'd better regain your senses and not take that last step. Teacher Yan, we are proud of you, do you understand!? It doesn't matter whether it's Wei Ning or me, We are all so proud of you!! In all my years in the industry, I have never seen a more dedicated host than you, so I beg you, I beg you, stop saying stupid things about leaving a show like this, okay!?”

Song Wenbin was speechless. He looked at Pauli and the silent photographers behind him. These were his trusted partners. What could be a more heartbreaking moment than this moment?

Having traveled to more than a dozen countries and regions together, these faces have become extremely familiar. But now, the gap between them is wider than the boundary between Chu, He and Han.

"You tell me a thousand words, you are plotting against me, Pauly." Song Wenbin said softly: "Have you ever thought about it, if we fall slower, are you planning to throw us to death..."

"This program is not the private property of you, Teacher Yan! This program is the joint effort of all of us. You have traveled to more than a dozen countries, and we have also traveled to more than a dozen countries. You have fallen in love with Sutina and Huo Yu, and we Are there no other people among them!? To be honest, among the tens of millions of viewers, who doesn’t like the two of them!! But we are still at our jobs and keep working, and so are the viewers!! Now you say not to film We won’t shoot anymore, what will we do, what will the camera crew do, where will we go?? There are so many people working behind the scenes for you, and you just leave as you say, which is irresponsible to all members of the camera crew!!”

Song Wenbin sat down on the chair and murmured: "Don't you understand yet, Pauly, you don't treat me as a human being, you and the people in your company treat me as an object, someone you can enjoy at will." , objects that are played around randomly..."

"A rich thing, Teacher Wei." Bai Shou interrupted: "In two and a half years, you have risen from a penniless amateur to a rich man with assets of nearly 100 million. Do you really think that you don't have to pay anything? Price. No, there is no such good thing in the world. Your privacy, your life, and even your freedom are all the price."

Song Wenbin's Adam's apple twitched and his palms were trembling.

Bao Li took a step forward, looked at Song Wenbin's face, and said sincerely: "Xiao Song, I understand you. The company is restricting you and using you, but it is also helping you! You are a born expert in life management. Your every gesture has a huge program effect. Do you know that the scene where you were in the cave made me cry? I have been in the industry for more than 30 years and I have never taken such a wonderful picture. Without you, , if I was asked to shoot those boring stars and those poor actors in the future, I would rather die!!"

At this point, the director's eyes were filled with tears. He grabbed Song Wenbin's hand tremblingly and said, "Don't leave us, okay?"

Song Wenbin pulled away his hand, looked at the wall behind the director, and said in a trembling voice: "Director, you have been with me day and night over the years, have you seen any changes in me?"

"Of course I have seen it. You have all changed and grown. But Song, the greatest growth for a man is to constantly strive for self-improvement. No matter what happens, you must stick to your job. This is the greatest growth."

"You should know that I can't go back."

Song Wenbin looked at the void behind the director like a blind man: "It's been a long time since I dealt with misogyny, and it's been a long time since I interacted with my former fans. I can't bear to see myself being so naughty."

"Song, life and work must be separated."

Baoli taught earnestly: "I did something wrong this time, I was not honest, and I deserve to die. But please give me a chance. I will leave enough money for you, you and your colleagues in the future." Space, just like other stars.”

"Huh?" Song Wenbin's eyes slowly focused on the director, feeling unbelievable at what he said. Is this still the director who pursues reality?

"Look at Xiaohua, Hua Jianchen, he actually did a good job. Although his house collapsed on the show, he didn't break the law, and he didn't feel sorry for the company. When the limelight passed, he figured it out and came back again. He is a good man. There are other celebrities, many of whom are married, but they actually go out to film movies and variety shows to make money."

Song Wenbin looked at the director with dull eyes.

"You have only been in the industry for a short time. Our industry is actually like this. I understand you best if you have a favorable impression of the female guest. But don't give up your job just because you have a favorable impression."

Song Wenbin listened, but he couldn't say a word.

At this time, Bai Shou took out an agreement, pushed it to Song Wenbin, and said, "Teacher Yan, this is what the investor asked me to give to you."

Song Wenbin didn't even want to look at the document, he just stared at Pauly blankly.

Bai Shou had no choice but to explain to him: "This is a twenty-year cooperation agreement, Teacher Yan. As long as you sign it, you will permanently own the editing rights of the film and 50% of the revenue from the Extraordinary Journey broadcast. I believe I, that number will definitely make your heart beat."

"What if I don't sign?" Song Wenbin asked.

"Then everything about you will be made public. Teacher Wei, don't think that just because you have a company that sells juice, you can break away from this identity." Baikari said coldly: "Do you think that the quality of your company's drinks? Can your cost control be comparable to that of those century-old companies? With all due respect, you are just a packaging seller, just like you. After leaving the halo of Teacher Yan and the promotion of extraordinary journey, Guozhiyue's products , the sales plummeted in just a matter of minutes. Especially, you just spent a huge sum of money to acquire a processing plant in Hong Kong, didn't you?"

Song Wenbin sat on the chair, as if he had fallen into an invisible giant net, and began to fall endlessly. He looked at Bai Shou with numbness in his eyes.

"Don't look at me like this. That factory is a high-quality asset, Teacher Wei. Mr. Shen and I didn't cheat you. It's just that as the scale gets bigger and there are more people in charge, the cost will naturally go up. If it's gone now An advertisement for an extraordinary journey. If your house collapses, it will only take a moment to go from a rich man to a loser. You should be aware of the dangers involved. I think, since you are right to you If you have a good impression of your colleagues, you should be responsible for them. After all, beautiful girls are very expensive. You guys opened this company together, right?"

Song Wenbin didn't want to waste any more words with this sad guy. He looked at Baoli and said, "This kind of thing can't pass the trial at all."

"It's so wonderful. Even if it is broadcast abroad, I still want it to be seen by the world." Paulie said enthusiastically, like a martyr.

"You will die with me..."

"Teacher Yan, the show is everything to me. I can't watch a talented person like you being buried in the sea of ​​people, and eventually disappearing into the crowd. That would be a waste of nature!"

Song Wenbin sighed, finally closed his eyes in pain, and murmured: "Okay, if we continue, when will the trip end?"

"The journey never ends," Paulie said ecstatically.
