From the time travel, I became extraordinary

He looked at the closed door, then looked at Zhou Fang standing in front of the door. For a moment, Fei Tao was stunned.

He has been in the entertainment industry for so many years and is no longer a fresh newcomer.

Although Li Ershao no longer supports him and sold his contract to Sihai Group, due to his fame, he naturally still has a certain say when renewing the contract with Sihai Group.

Fei Tao also carefully read all the clauses in the contract that Manager Wang gave him.

Manager Wang promised him that he would be able to play the leading role in at least five movies during the five years of the contract.

As for the penalty for breach of contract, it was directly 100 million. Fei Tao remembers it very clearly.

He had specifically asked Manager Wang about this issue, and the other party explained that the company had spent so many resources to support him, and if the penalty for breach of contract was not set high, and he suddenly jumped ship, wouldn't the company suffer a huge loss?

Having been in the music industry for several years, although Fei Tao is indeed very popular, he is famous for himself but not for his songs.

After singing so many songs, he still can't find a representative work that is widely sung.

Since he is not good at singing, it may be a good way out for him to change his career and make movies.

After all, idol stars like him usually don't have a very long shelf life.

If things go well, after filming a few movies, as the leading actor, he can directly transform from an idol to a talented actor, and then remain popular until old age.

After hearing Manager Wang tell him that the company would have a movie every year with himself as the leading role, Fei Tao was extremely happy.

Regarding the penalty for breach of contract, Manager Wang's explanation sounded reasonable. After a little hesitation, Fei Tao signed his name on the contract on the spot.

"Old Zhou, I know the penalty for breach of contract is 100 million."

"But this place doesn't look like a proper film set at all."

"Didn't you tell me that after I come here, the director will personally explain the play to me? Where is he?"

"I'm the leading actor in this indoor play, right? But besides me, who else is an actor here?"

"There is definitely no female lead or female supporting role. After all, there is not even a single woman here."

"Could it be that the villain is going to play against me today?"

Speaking of the 100 million yuan in liquidated damages, even Fei Tao felt a little painful.

It is true that he has been famous for seven or eight years, but as a product of capital, the majority of the money earned by this popular star must have gone to others.

If he were asked to come up with 100 million, he might be able to do it with some effort, but if he really did that, even if he didn't lose everything, he would definitely suffer heavy losses.

When he thought of this, Fei Tao felt a little dispirited.

While speaking, he also glanced at the group of tattooed men who were looking at this side with a fake smile.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, the big villain he was talking about must be this group of guys.

After all, if any of those tattooed guys walked out, they wouldn't have to act at all and would just stand there. I believe no one would think that they would be good people.

"The penalty for breach of contract is 100 million, that's correct."

"But Brother Tao, did you notice the $ sign at the end when you signed your name?"

“Anyone with a little common sense knows what currency this $ represents.”

"Do you see the man with tattoos over there? He's the director. Wait a moment, he'll explain the play to you."

"Besides, who said the heroine wasn't there? Look, she is!"

Zhou Fang explained to Fei Tao in a serious tone.

As he said this, he pointed to the iron cage in the left corner.

As soon as he walked into the room, Fei Tao noticed the cage. He was sure that there was only a big lizard in it, and definitely no woman.

"That's the heroine..." In an instant, Fei Tao seemed to have thought of something.

His whole body was totally out of control and he shivered several times in a row.

His face was ashen, and he shook his head like a drum: "No, absolutely not!"

"Who am I, Fei Tao? How could I possibly make that kind of movie?"

"It must have cost Sihai Group a lot to buy my contract back from Li Ershao."

"Mr. Zhou, do you know that you are plotting against me?"

……

Gritting his teeth, Fei Tao reached the door in just three or two steps.

Pointing at Zhou Fang who was standing in front of him, he shouted angrily in a stern voice.

"Why is it that what the third brother can do is not possible for you?"

"If you really can't do it, it's okay. We can provide you with medication support."

"Besides, the company specially arranged for you to come and shoot this movie."

"To tell you the truth, several big bosses of our Sihai Group think highly of you. The creative idea of ​​this movie in which you play the leading role came from our chairman."

"There are only two choices before you!"

"Either you pay $500 million to cancel the contract, or you just be honest and make this movie well!"

……

Zhou Fang had expected Fei Tao's reaction, and he was completely indifferent to it.

His expression was calm, he looked directly at Fei Tao in front of him and smiled coldly.

These words frightened Fei Tao so much that not a single bit of blood left his face.

He has a personal experience of how powerful the power of capital is.

After all, there is nothing outstanding about him, whether it is his appearance or the quality of his voice. The reason why he has become so popular is all because of the capital packaging.

Compared with the former Mr. Li who was behind him, the Sihai Group must be even more powerful.

When I think about it, the big bosses who control such a giant consortium actually came out in person and told their subordinates to deal with him...

After taking a few glances at the huge, ferocious-looking lizard in the iron cage in the corner, and thinking of what was about to happen next, Fei Tao's head tilted and he fainted.

"We're already here, will it help to pretend to be faint?"

"Whether he's really dizzy or just pretending to be dizzy, someone come over here and wake him up with a pee."

"I'll do it, I'll do it. I'm getting irritated lately!"

"Tsk, I also have diabetes. It's better to leave this difficult task to me!"

……

Seeing this scene, Zhou Fang curled his lips with disdain.

He waved at the group of tattooed men with smirks on their faces and gave instructions.

This film company is originally a company that specializes in making short films. Generally speaking, people who do this business have a community background.

When it comes to waking Fei Tao up with a pee, these guys get full of energy.

Three or four big men suddenly emerged from the crowd and walked up to Fei Tao.

Some yellow raindrops fell down, covering Fei Tao's head and face.

Jiang Yao had no idea what was happening in Hong Kong.

Xiangnan Province, provincial capital, Xingdu, Huanghua International Airport.

Carrying a simple shoulder bag, Jiang Yao walked out of the station exit with brisk steps. Zheng Jifa and his soldiers are now in Hong Kong, and they are indeed powerful.

None of them, who were busy with big projects, showed up in person. They simply made a few phone calls and passed on instructions. Jiang Yao's ID and replacement bank card were successfully obtained yesterday.

As they reached middle age, Bingzai, Da Gouxiong and their friends had families and things to do, so there was not much point in Jiang Yao staying in Hong Kong alone.

As soon as he got the documents, Jiang Yao informed a few of them and then booked a flight back to China today.

Now he is holding a Home Return Permit in his hand. On the certificate, his name is still Jiang Yao, but his age has become 24.

These certificates are definitely genuine.

After all, Zheng Jifa originally came from the Hong Kong police force. After he became successful, he has always maintained a good relationship with the senior management of the police force.

With his connections, helping Jiang Yao get a set of documents is a piece of cake and not something that is difficult.

"Handsome guy, do you need a ride?" There are always many online-hailing taxis waiting near the airport exit.

Seeing Jiang Yao walking out of the airport alone, a driver immediately came over and started to solicit business from him.

"How much does it cost to Taoyuan without carpooling?" Jiang Yao paused and asked casually.

When I was chatting with Bingzai and Dagouxiong, I heard them say that mobile payment is now popular in China and few people use cash anymore.

Taking a taxi, shopping, or eating out can all be done easily with a mobile phone.

He just got his ID yesterday, and as for the cell phone, Bingzai and his friends had already helped him get it two days ago, but it was still Hong Kong's phone number.

In China, most of the daily software used on mobile phones require real-name authentication. Jiang Yao came back in a hurry, and he hasn't done these things yet.

Of course, he must have prepared some cash and other things.

If he really needs money, he can withdraw cash at any time from an ATM with his newly-issued bank card.

"Taoyuan County? It's about 100 to 200 kilometers away from here."

"I'll take you there, and when I come back there won't be any passengers, and there's a good chance that the car will be empty."

"If it's just you, you pay the highway toll, and you can give me another three hundred!"

The driver tilted his head and estimated, then he spoke directly and replied.

This price is quite affordable.

In other words, the driver's car is an electric car. If he changes it to a gasoline car, he will really lose money if there are no passengers on the return trip.

"Okay, three hundred is three hundred!" Jiang Yao nodded, opened the car door, and sat directly in the passenger seat.

"The Peach Blossom Spring in Taoyuan County is world-famous!"

"Little brother, are you from Hong Kong? Are you here for tourism?"

"We have many beautiful and interesting places in southern Hunan. The Peach Blossom Spring is famous, but the place is..."

The driver was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was very talkative and he almost never stopped talking since the car started.

At the airport, the flight that just landed is the one that goes directly from Hong Kong to Xingdu.

The drivers who have been picking up passengers here all year round are naturally aware of this.

It is for this reason that the driver in front of him thought that Jiang Yao was a Hong Kong native who came here for tourism.

"My hometown is Taoyuan. A few years ago, I had a good opportunity and went directly to Hong Kong. Now, it's true that I am a Hong Konger!"

"This time, I'm planning to go back to my hometown to have a look, travel or something, let's see how things go!"

"What about you, brother? Judging from your accent, you don't sound like a local of Xingdu!"

Jiang Yao smiled and responded.

If we really go by the actual year of birth, he may be older than the driver.

But now, he could call him "big brother" very smoothly.

"I'm from Yuanling County next door. I worked there for more than ten years, but was laid off by the company just because of my age!"

"There's no other way, I can only take an online ride-hailing car!"

"At the beginning, I could still make a little money, but those damn platforms have been taking more and more cuts, and I can hardly survive!"

"It's better to take a passenger like you. There are no middlemen making a profit from the price difference!"

……

After a few words, the driver started to complain.

He has cursed almost all of the more common online ride-hailing platforms on the market.

Jiang Yao did not say anything in agreement, he just smiled.

Back then, it took several hours to travel from Xingdu to my hometown Taoyuan, and a long section of the journey required taking the national highway.

Nowadays, the entire highway journey only took more than an hour, and the online car-hailing vehicle that Jiang Yao took had already stopped in front of a hotel in the county town.

The big villa that was specially built in my hometown of Chengbei Village has become what it looks like after so many years.

Jiang Yao wasn't sure whether anyone from the official side was still keeping an eye on that place.

Since he knew nothing about these things, it was naturally inconvenient for him to go back directly. Instead, he booked an ordinary single room in this hotel called Kaiyue and stayed there temporarily.

As for Bingzai, after bringing his parents to Hong Kong, he has rarely paid attention to things happening in his hometown, Taoyuan County.

Jiang Yao didn't get much useful information from him.

In Luhua Town, the old house where my mother Yuan Xiuhua and Zeng Dazhuang lived after they got married has been abandoned for many years.

After strolling around the area, Jiang Yao also asked his neighbors about the whereabouts of his mother and her family.

According to them, after Zeng Dazhuang and Yuan Xiuhua became rich, people always came to them to borrow money. Not long after, their family moved to the county and all news of them was lost.

Jiang Yao tried to call Yuan Xiuhua's previous mobile phone number, but the owner of that number had changed to a rough man.

After dialing the number, he simply said "looking for Yuan Xiuhua". The other party called him a psycho and said it was a wrong number before hanging up.

As for the cheap girl Zeng Tiantian, after so many years, her phone number can no longer be reached.

After wandering around for several days, Jiang Yao still hasn't found his mother's whereabouts.

"Tomorrow, I'll go to my uncle's place."

"My mother just moved away from Luhua Town. Since her family is in the county, it is impossible for her not to contact her family."

Walking on the street, Jiang Yao sighed softly.

To be honest, if he contacted the higher-ups and wanted to find out the whereabouts of his mother, it would only take a few minutes.

However, Jiang Yao didn't want to do that.

After more than seventeen years of separation, it was a little troublesome for me to find my mother on my own, but it would only take a little more time.

He has more than a hundred years left to live, so time is plenty.

I haven't seen my mother for so many years, so it's no big deal to meet her a few days later.

Compared to asking for help from above, which might bring him trouble, it would definitely be less troublesome for him to just take his time looking for the answer.

Looking left and right, Jiang Yao unknowingly walked to the newly built sports plaza in the county town.

The sun had just set and dusk had just fallen when bursts of noisy music seemed to penetrate every pore and reached his ears.

"The lady leading the dance looks a bit like my mom?" The square was crowded with people. After strolling around for a while, Jiang Yao paused and looked at a group of women dancing in the square on the left. (End of this chapter)
