A few days later, the contract was signed, this time Xiao Yi had to drive a lightweight chariot on a familiar road, the first time joining the crew there weren"t any big mistakes, this time there wasn"t Zhang Xinran to stab them in the back, it should be much smoother, but Dumei had spent several days, racking her brains to think of ways to promote Luzhou.

(T/N: 輕車熟路 (to drive a lightweight chariot on a familiar road) – idiom meaning do something well w/ ease, familiarized with something)

The break up drama last year was a huge hot topic in addition to the New Year"s greeting video, he had been hot for that period of time, this year they would have to find a way to keep Luzhou, whose TV drama hadn"t been released yet, as the topic of discussion, to ensure the audience rating when "Iron Horse Glacier" officially went online during the summer holidays.

Xiao Yi just now knew that, it turned out that Li Xing had fought over the broadcasting slot with their partner and had fought over 4 slots for the Spring Festival (Chinese New Year) but lost one, now they can only wait until summer to release a new drama.

It was precisely because of this matter, that Du Mei had confidence in opened her own film and television company, otherwise, no matter what drama Luzhou was in, it would easily be controlled by others.

Xiao Yi once asked Luzhou, what would happen if Du Mei started a film and television company, Luzhou just replied with the same explanation, and stopped there.

Luzhou was running while measuring the speed of his heart, Xiao Yi was also forced by Luzhou to work out in the bas.e.m.e.nt, by now he could almost keep up with Luzhou"s rhythm.

Luzhou wiped his sweat, and said: "Let me ask you."

Xiao Yi: "Ah?"

Luzhou: "……"

Luzhou"s face was sweaty, he was bare to the waist, with a towel draped around his neck and sweat dripping down from his hair, he said: "Every time I see you innocently ask "ah?" I really want to hit you, do you know that?"

Xiao Yi sincerely said: "Yes."

Luzhou threw the towel on Xiao Yi"s head, Xiao Yi was baffled, the towel was about to wrung out and smelled of sweat.

Luzhou said sternly: “Do you think you are my people or chief Du"s people?”

“Of course I"m your people ah — male G.o.d!” Xiao Yi screamed and said, he almost went up to hold Lu Zhou"s st.u.r.dy thigh, “you treat me so good like this! You even gave me end-of-the-year money."

Luzhou: “……”

"Then I"ll tell you." Luzhou said, "Since you"re my people, don"t speak of too many matters about me in front of chief Du, it"s me who pay you, not chief Du, understand?"

"Understood!" Xiao Yi immediately answered, "but I didn"t say anything ah, even the contract also says to always take your orders as the priority, you can tell me to do anything that you want."

Luzhou thought and thought, he got down from the treadmill, and said: "In that case I"ll tell you, Dumei wanted to expand her business, she"s unwilling to be under the control of others. She wants to nurture new talents, this way of thinking started two years ago when she and Wei Lin film industries had a dispute. In the past the company was operated under the banner of Wei Lin.

"Oh——," Xiao Yi said, "she lets you take on the work, then takes a part of the whole, right?"

Xiao Yi gave Luzhou a canned beverage, the mood on Luzhou"s face was difficult to guess, he said: "Yes, that"s right."

Xiao Yi asked, "How much did she take? A lot? Is she treating you unfairly?"

"She doesn"t treat me unfairly, it"s like that in the industry, she took 20%," Luzhou said.

Xiao Yi thought "that"s a lot", one film of Luzhou"s was 10 million yuan, that meant that Dumei took out 2 million yuan, however, if Dumei herself produced and made the film, then she could earn much more, it was indeed like that.

"Don"t think about it." Luzhou said, "new talents like you who want to sign a contract with her, guess how much she"ll take from you?"
