Chapter 2050 The Queen Returns (8)

Qu Song and his team thought that by having someone expose Su Yan's infertility, they could shift the focus of the divorce proceedings.

However, can 999, a platform that once unified and represented eight hundred people to argue with keyboard warriors online, just stand by and watch Qu Song's online trolls stir up trouble?

Its appearance immediately shifted public opinion to Qu Song's side, with netizens mostly criticizing him for changing his mind and making so many excuses.

When Qu Song's manager, Wang Liang, saw the online public opinion, his face turned ashen. The paid online trolls had done nothing to help; instead, they made Qu Song even more criticized.

"Does Su Yan have someone backing him up?" Wang Liang asked uneasily.

Qu Song also saw the online comments. He said with a stern face, "I don't know, probably not. I haven't seen her contact any people in the industry over the years."

"She must have hired an online army; our online army simply can't win the argument."

"You bitch, you used the money I gave you to hire online trolls to attack me. I should have..."

"Stop talking. Since things have come to this, you can only hurry up and get back to the production team and let it cool down. Anyway, netizens will forget about it soon after they start gossiping. As long as it's not confirmed that you cheated, it won't have much of an impact on you."

"Hmph, she'd better not fall into my hands in the future."

Qu Song was packed up and sent to the new film crew overnight. The company even made a point of having reporters take photos of him joining the crew. The company also issued a statement saying that he would be joining the crew to focus on filming and would no longer respond to any personal questions.

He and Hu Mianmian originally thought that after making their relationship official, they could at least be together openly and no longer have to be secretive.

Now that Su Yan has released a new song, let alone showing affection, the two of them would probably be called a scumbag and a homewrecker just for walking together.

Hu Mianmian was furious. She was supposed to attend two public award ceremonies, but she couldn't participate in them.

She had originally planned to amaze everyone at the awards ceremony, but the company canceled her schedule.

"Why can't I attend the awards ceremony? Let netizens say what they want. Aren't there plenty of scandals and gossip about celebrities? I'm not afraid of being criticized."

Hu Mianmian's agent said with exasperation, "You may not be afraid of being criticized, but the company still cares about your image. You're cultivating an image of a pure and innocent girl. If you go out at this time, the media won't let you off the hook. Netizens already like to speculate wildly, so don't make things worse."

"This Su Yan is just deliberately writing songs to disgust us because she can't bear to see Qu Song do it. She's really despicable."

"She doesn't know how to write songs. She probably just had someone write songs for her comeback. She's actually reaping the benefits of the divorce. It's a free lunch for her."

"That's right, it's made it so that I haven't been able to see Brother Qu lately."

"Stop thinking about men. Being love-struck won't do. Su Yan was love-struck back then, and look at what happened to him. Now he's middle-aged and has to go back to the entertainment industry to start all over again."

"That's what she deserves. Who told her she couldn't hold onto a man's heart? I'm not like her," Hu Mianmian said confidently.

Su Yan, who was mocked by Hu Mianmian for being middle-aged, was currently admiring young, handsome men.

Under her X-ray-like gaze, the five seventeen- or eighteen-year-old boys standing opposite her blushed with embarrassment.

They're here to apply for an artist position, but why does it feel like an emperor is choosing a concubine?

And who can tell them that they were just randomly walking down the street when they were discovered by a talent scout, and out of curiosity, they came to see what an entertainment company was like, only to find out that it was former pop diva Su who was interviewing them?

Even if you don't get the audition, seeing your favorite singer makes the trip worthwhile.

"Sure, you all have great looks. If you're interested, you can sign a contract to become trainees with our company."

"Trainee, what's this?" The group looked at Su Yan with puzzled expressions.

Su Yan calmly explained, "Our company will train your singing and dancing skills, and help you debut when the time is right. During the training process, you will be trainees, similar to students, except that we will pay you."

You guys look at me, I look at you.

"Um, I'd like to ask how the salary is calculated?" a young boy asked somewhat shyly.

"Our company is very humane. During your trainee period, we will provide you with a basic living allowance of 3,000 yuan per person per month, including food and accommodation. The minimum contract is for five years, and we guarantee your debut within five years. If you do not debut, we will provide a one-time severance payment of 200,000 yuan. If you do debut, the salary sharing will be calculated separately."

Upon hearing this, some people felt the salary was too low, some felt there was no future in the job, and others felt that five years was too long.

But they had no idea that this was already considered very good treatment. As a trainee, the training in singing and dancing usually takes at least three years. Whether trainees in other companies get paid or not is another matter. If a company thinks you have no future, they will keep you hanging on, neither letting you debut nor letting you leave.

Not only did they waste your youth, but they also won't give you a single penny in compensation.

If you want to leave early, you'll have to pay a huge penalty for breach of contract, so the conditions Su Yan offered were already quite good.

Those young people who are signed to entertainment companies as trainees with dreams in their hearts don't even understand the contract. Perhaps only one or two of them are lucky enough to be given special training by the company. As for the others, they are all just there to keep going until they can't take it anymore and leave on their own.

In this way, the company won't lose a single penny, and might even earn some people's termination fees.

While others were wavering, a young man stepped forward and declared firmly, "I'm willing, I can sign the contract right now."

Su Yan looked at him, raised the corners of her mouth, and said to the HR manager beside her, "Give him a contract."

Su Yan had noticed this person before; among these young people, his appearance was the most outstanding, and he had always been very low-key.

But none of that matters. The point is that in this little world, Lu Jiuzhou is destined to be a superstar, reaching his peak right from the start with countless fans. Qu Song even bought articles to smear him because Hu Mianmian likes him.

I never expected that he would come to her place for an interview.
