Rebirth of the Entertainment Giant

Zhang Xiaohua was overjoyed but quickly calmed down and slowly asked: " Are you Du Chengyi?"

Du Chengyi looked a little embarrassed but he nodded slightly then whispered "Erhh yes".

Xu Fengnian had lured Du Chengyi over promising work, so he followed.

However, Du Chengyi never imagined that they would actually come to HuaXiang Entertainment.

To the name HuaXiang Entertainment, Du Chengyi was no stranger, though he no longer sang he still followed industry news.

Looking at Zhang Xiaohua, Du Chengyi was nervous because he knew that Zhang Xiaohua was the boss of this company and a renowned music producer.

Being a true musician, becoming a full time artist had always been the dream but life was never simple, he needed to make money to survive which left him little to no time to focus on music.

For many years, he had been working as a porter on the construction site and occasionally picking up private work. In short, as long as he could make money from it he would do it.

"You are a Singaporean right how come you came to Huaxia to sing?"

Zhang Xiaohua had previously learned some information about Du Chengyi from Xu Fengnian, knowing that he was a Singaporean, but he didn't understand why he came across the ocean to Huaxia for development? Foreign entertainment standards though below par were still in a better state than Huaxia's.

Du Chengyi smiled bitterly and said truthfully: "Singapore was overcrowded, there is no shortage of singers and my voice is different so I had no chance to develop in Singapore. I originally thought that the entertainment culture in Huaxia was still developing so there would be many opportunities. I did not expect that I was wrong, I overestimated myself!"

"Since there was no opportunities for development here, why didn't you go back home?" Zhang Xiaohua continued to ask.

Du Chengyi's face gradually became red, seemingly shy he slowly lowered his head making his long overflowing flop down and cover his face.

"I have three younger sisters and four younger brothers in my family. My parents are getting too old to work. Life isn't easy at home. Before I came, I promised to make a name for myself, earn money and grant them a better life. While I failed the least I can do is not go back and burden them plus there are plenty of jobs here so I can earn money to survive and send some back home to take care of them..."

"You had no face to go back huh?" Zhang Xiaohua interrupted Du Chengyi's words with a smile.

Du Chengyi nodded lightly with a sigh.

After five years what had he achieved.

He remembered his parents out imploring him to stay and focus on his studies but he had been so headstrong now look where it had got him. He was barely surviving at this rate he would die before he even brought a car let alone buy his parents a mansion like he had promised.

How could he go back and face them now?

"I have heard your songs and I have to admit that your voice is really different, very prominent, unique and in line with my requirements. Even Yang Kun can't compare with your voice." I don't want to talk too much nonsense, so I'll get straight to the point: " I to want hire you, are you interested?"

Du Chengyi face lit up with joy and happiness before turning into one of helplessness.

Seeing this Zhang Xiaohua asked filled with anxiousness:"What is it are you unwilling to join our company"

Not waiting for Du Chengyi to answer Zhang Xiaohua's question, Xu Fengnian replied at this time: "He signed a contract with New Century Entertainment three years ago and the contract period is five years. He is still a signed artist of New Century Entertainment. He can't sign with us until the contract period is over."

Du Chengyi nodded sorrowfully: "Boss Zhang I am willing to join. Only... like what Manager Xu just said that the contract period between me and New Century Entertainment hasn't ended so..."

"What is the cancellation fee."

"1 million!" Du Chengyi answered truthfully, his face was full of bitterness.

"What the hell so cheap...?"
