The genius villain's mother is going crazy in the kid's variety show by relying on food

Chapter 58: Retiring from the entertainment industry also counts as termination of contract
I only had one suitcase when I left, but when I came back I had a lot of bags.

Xu Li understood that Nanzhi was too tired and Nanyi was too young, so he didn't ask them to do it and took care of all the luggage by himself.

Two suitcases, a large backpack, a cross-body bag hanging on each side, and a few bulging plastic bags in the hands... It's simply a walking luggage rack!
Ding dong.

The elevator door opens.

The curly-haired lady came out waving a fan. She didn't notice Nanzhi Nanyi who was squeezed into the corner. She saw Xu Li and her eyes widened in surprise:
"Hey, moving?"

Xu Li: I can’t laugh.

When they got into the elevator, they could still hear the curly-haired lady's voice:

"Young people nowadays are so frugal that they don't even rely on others for moving..."

Nanzhi silently stretched out her hand:
"Let me help you."

"No! I can hold on!"

Xu Li gritted his teeth.

Nanzhi and Nanyi didn't have that much luggage originally, but Aunt Qian and her husband were so enthusiastic that they insisted on giving Nanzhi a lot of homemade pickles, dried wild goods sent by relatives, etc.

These things are of really good quality and cannot be bought anywhere else. Nanzhi couldn't refuse them no matter what.

It’s hard for Xu Li.

Fortunately, the distance from getting off the bus to home is not too far.

Seeing the entrance of Nanzhi's house, Xu Li was shocked and smiled:
"Don't worry, during the two weeks you're gone, I'll have Xiaoqi come over to clean the house every day, so it will be spotless..."

The door opened, and Xu Li's voice stopped abruptly.

The air quality in Yanjing is not very good. The windows were open for two weeks, which was enough time for a thin layer of dust to accumulate on the surfaces of the furniture and the floor.

In addition, there were clothes scattered on the sofa and unwashed pots and bowls piled in the kitchen sink...

The whole house was in a mess!

It's not even as good as the hut in the shantytown of Nanzhinanyi!

Nanzhi's smile gradually disappeared.

Nan Yi took half a step back in disgust.

Xu Li murmured: "Are they crazy?"

Nanzhi glanced at Xu Li and saw that her whole face was black, with a hint of red in it, a mixture of depression and anger.

With Nanzhi's intelligence and sharpness, how could she not guess that there was another story behind it?
But she pretended not to know and told Xu Li:

"Let's get a cleaning lady over here."

The three of them alone would not be able to clean up the place today.

Xu Li took a deep breath to calm himself down and nodded.

Then I found a place to put my luggage down and made two phone calls.

She said: "I have known these two aunties for many years. They are very tight-lipped and will not say anything to others. You can rest assured."

After that, he seemed to want to say something, but swallowed it back several times.

After much effort, I finally managed to utter three words:
"sorry."

Nanzhi’s heart is like a mirror:

"It has nothing to do with you."

Xu Li shook his head and sighed:

"No, it's because I don't agree with the company's philosophy, and you're caught in the middle and become a victim."

After following the entire live broadcast of "Cub Observation Diary", Xu Li's impression of Nanzhi has truly changed a lot.

So, those words that were once difficult to express were easily spoken in front of Nanzhi -

Before this, Nanzhi was in a state of being semi-abandoned by the agency.

Taking on this children's variety show did not rely on company resources, but on the connections Xu Li had accumulated over the years in the industry.

The agency originally thought that letting Nanzhi take her child to the variety show would only result in being scolded, so they simply left it alone. Even when Nanzhi was previously blackmailed by the entire Internet, it was the program crew and Fu Chao's team who helped her to clarify the matter.

Of course Xu Li contributed.

But she is just a small agent and her ability is limited.

Unexpectedly, Nanzhi survived the storm and fought back!
Recently, the popularity has been rising steadily, and even the reputation has improved a lot...

The agency finally noticed Nanzhi, a free-range artist, and felt that "Cub Observation Diary" would definitely be a big hit in the future, so they might as well seize the current opportunity and let Nanzhi make more money.

So the head of the agency department took over the job and, in the interval before the second episode of filming, negotiated a dozen announcements for Nanzhi, including short variety shows, live broadcasts, endorsements, and advertisements...

The posture seemed as if they wanted to squeeze every penny of the value out of Nanzhi!
They even set their sights on Southern Italy!
Xu Li could still remember his boss's expression. He was so shameless that he slammed the table and said:
"Every announcement is a lot of money! Who doesn't want money? We arranged this because we respect her! Nan Yi is still a child, so what? Do you know how many parents want to send their children to the entertainment industry to become child stars with money in their hands? "

Xu Li frowned in disgust and said to Nanzhi:
"I refused at the time. They were very unhappy. Removing Xiaoqi was a warning."

Xiaoqi is Nanzhi's personal assistant.

Nanzhi suddenly fell silent.

To be exact, she was reviewing the memories of the attackers—

The agency she is currently working for is a well-known and established company in the industry.

However, the attackers only see its glamorous appearance, not knowing that the company is well-known in the industry for exploiting artists, having chaotic rules and bad work style...

Fortunately, the agent that the Raiders cooperated with was Xu Li, who was considered a breath of fresh air in this company.

Of course, the attackers don’t think so. Instead, they think that Xu Li’s ideas are old-fashioned and not as capable as other agents in the company to help her become famous.

The Raiders tried to change their agent several times, but unfortunately, no one liked her.

On the contrary, Xu Li, although he always scolded her, actually helped her again and again and never thought of giving up.

Being short-sighted, one does not appreciate the blessings he has.

——This is the only comment Nanzhi had about the strategists.

Nanzhi's brief silence, in Xu Li's eyes, had a different meaning.

Xu Li thought Nanzhi didn't want to reject the notice, so he tried to explain:
"I know these announcements can boost your popularity in the short term and bring huge financial gains, but in the long run, it's obviously exhausting the resources..."

As he was talking, Xu Li suddenly became deflated.

I remember that Nanzhi always felt annoyed by her old-fashionedness and inflexibility.

perhaps……

After all, they are not on the same path.

"…Forget it. If you want, I'll talk to the company again."

Xu Li felt heavy on his shoulders and extremely tired.

Nanzhi: “No, I believe you.”

She met Xu Li's incredulous gaze and smiled faintly.

Then, Nanzhi's next sentence is:
"We don't share the same ideals. Do you want to continue to stay in this company?"

Xu Li was shocked, thinking he had heard wrongly:
"W-what? Do you want to cancel the contract?"

"more or less."

Does quitting the entertainment industry also count as termination of contract?

"You still have three years left on your contract! The penalty for breach of contract is 3000 million! Of course, if you file a lawsuit, you won't have to pay so much, but it won't be a small amount either. The main reason is that it takes too much time..."

Although Xu Li said no, his mind was honest and he started to settle the account for Nanzhi.

You can see that she is very moved.

Nanzhi smiled:

"It's okay, just take your time. I have plenty of time."
