After seven years of being out of the spotlight, millions of fans are waiting for my return!

As soon as the call connected, Yang Cheng's voice came from the other end.

"Kobayashi, it's me."

Hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Lin Mo was subconsciously stunned for a moment.

Since being sidelined, Yang Cheng hadn't spoken to him in this tone for a long time.

The flattery contained a hint of appeasement.

For a moment, Lin Mo's eyes were filled with mockery.

Eight years ago, after he was signed by Guangying Media, Yang Cheng became his agent, specifically responsible for arranging his schedule.

However, Yang Cheng was a pragmatist, and in order to extract his commercial value, he kept arranging various commercial performances for him.

In the year since his debut, he has released many singles, but has not yet released an album or held a concert of his own.

In order to monetize his fame in a timely manner, Yang Cheng deliberately found various reasons to refuse to release albums or hold concerts for him.

This became a source of deep regret for him.

Especially after he bought the copyrights to all his music seven years ago, Yang, in order to protect his future career, had his partnership company sideline him.

They even deliberately cultivated new people to replace him.

During those seven years, he also prepared to fund the production of a music album out of his own pocket, but Yang Cheng refused, citing the poor market conditions.

During this period, the other party also deliberately gave his previous business collaborations and endorsements to that newcomer.

At that time, Guangying Media was like a leech clinging to him, constantly sucking his blood until it drained him of his last drop.

"I'm very busy. What's wrong? Tell me quickly!"

Lin Mo's tone was indifferent, as if he were answering a scam call.

His words made Yang Cheng's face instantly turn very ugly.

If Lin Mo hadn't been trending on social media these past two days and caught the attention of the company's top management, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to contact the other party at all.

He's been in the entertainment industry for so many years, he's seen all kinds of people.

Among them are many artists like Lin Mo who have gained considerable popularity right after their comeback.

When these celebrities make their comebacks, fans are initially drawn in by the novelty and offer their support, but once the hype dies down, they revert to their original selves.

Although Lin Mo has some popularity now, he has only just made a comeback and his popularity is unstable. If he makes a few more moves, he can completely cut off the other party's path to a comeback.

He didn't even consider Lin Mo a threat.

The entertainment industry is never short of newcomers. Guangying Media signs many new talents every year, who can replace Lin Mo at any time.

However, he now has to give an explanation to the company's senior management.

"Xiao Lin, the company knows you want to hold a concert. We discussed it in a meeting today. You should renew your contract with the company first, and then the company will definitely organize a concert for you. We guarantee that the scale of the concert will not be lower than those of the top stars."

"Haven't you always wanted to release an album? This time, the company has hired a top-tier production team to create a brand new album for you."

Yang Cheng was making his own plans.

As long as Lin Mo agrees to renew his contract, the company will continue to take advantage of his popularity to accept commercial performances until all of his commercial value is squeezed out.

Once the hype surrounding him has died down, continue to sideline him.

Helping him organize a concert is just an excuse.

An artist who has lost their commercial value is not worth the company wasting resources on.

"Xiao Lin, I was too hasty before. As you know, the company hasn't produced a single artist in the past few years. I couldn't produce any results, and the higher-ups were pressuring us, which is why we didn't renew your contract."

"I'm doing this for your own good. The entertainment industry is very different now than it was seven years ago. The company is not renewing your contract because we want to give you a chance to reintegrate into the entertainment industry so that you can better adapt to the current state of the industry."

"Now that the company has seen your efforts, it has decided to continue working with you. If you have any requests, feel free to tell the company. The position of the company's top leader will always be yours."

Yang Cheng's words almost made Lin Mo burst out laughing.

Even at this point, Yang Cheng was still plotting against him.

They were the ones asking him for something, yet he acted as if they were giving him alms.

Does he need it?

Not at all!

Now he has a system, and in the future, he won't just hold concerts, he'll also release albums, act in movies, and direct...

Without a bloodsucker company like Guangying Media, he will only go further and fly higher!

Yang Cheng thought his words had moved Lin Mo, and subconsciously became a little smug.

When he spoke, his tone became more didactic.

"Xiao Lin, you're too young and too stubborn! Seven years ago, if it weren't for the copyright issue, you would have achieved the same level of success and status as Jay Chou by now."

"Now you see, without a company to plan for you, your career has stagnated. You thought talent alone could make you in the entertainment industry? You're wrong! Utterly wrong!"

"This industry is never short of talented people. Background, connections, and resources are the key. Without a company to support you, you simply can't become famous."

"The company's agreement to renew your contract is a way of helping you become more popular. As long as you agree to renew, you'll receive priority access to the company's resources in the future."

However, Yang Cheng's words were met with a burst of laughter from Lin Mo.

Help him?

Seven years ago, they were the ones who were clearly sidelined and sidelined!

They keep saying it's for his own good, but the things they do are increasingly shameless!

"Yeah?"

Lin Mo's question immediately made Yang Cheng feel like he was losing face.

He is a senior executive at Guangying Media, with many artists under his management and a wealth of resources and connections. Everyone is begging him to promote them.

Lin Mo, an artist who has only recently made a comeback, actually dared to mock him.

At this moment, he completely dropped the pretense.

"Lin Mo, you think you're something special just because you're on a singing competition and have gained some popularity. As far as I know, the singing competition is just a temporary thing where they pulled you in to fill in the gaps."

"Your contract with the singer has expired, and you have no other resources. Once the hype dies down, you won't have a chance to make a comeback."

"The company has plenty of resources and connections right now. If you don't want them, there are plenty of others who will."

"You think holding a concert is easy? Let me tell you, these days, apart from top-tier singers, other singers lose money holding concerts. Without a company to help promote and sponsor, you can't sell a single ticket on your own!"

"The company is giving you a chance by renewing your contract. If you continue to oppose the company, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

"You've offended the company; you can forget about working in this industry from now on!"

After listening, Lin Mo's expression remained indifferent, but the mockery in his eyes deepened.

Seven years have passed, and the other party still has the same attitude.

However, the other party did get one thing right—an artist's success is indeed inseparable from the company's packaging and promotion.

Even top-tier celebrities have a professional team behind them to help manage their careers.

These professional teams specialize in helping artists with publicity, image building, and handling various public relations events.

They even help with hype when necessary, keeping the artist in the spotlight and generating buzz.

But he doesn't need it!

He can start his own company and no longer be subject to others!

He currently holds the copyrights to many songs, and has many unreleased new songs in his hands, so he has no worries about not having commercial collaborations!

Without Guangying Media holding him back, he'll only become famous even faster!

A trash company like this, which is ruining his career, deserves to get out!

"Lin Mo, this is the last chance the company is giving you. You'd better hurry, or you'll miss this opportunity."

Yang Cheng seemed certain that Lin Mo would compromise, his tone brimming with confidence.

He had already planned it all out; once Lin Mo renewed his contract with the company, everything would be in his hands.

When the time comes, he will never give Lin Mo a second chance to make a comeback.

Instead, they wanted the other person to completely leave the entertainment industry!

Just as Yang Cheng was certain that Lin Mo would agree, Lin Mo coldly uttered a single word into his phone.

"roll!"

I'm about to die, who's going to pamper you!
