Bright Throne

Chapter 11 Creditors

The bell rang for a while, and finally got through when Qin Yi was almost disappointed.

"Hello?" came a low and calm voice from the other end.

Qin Yi cleared his throat: "Pei Hanrui?"

"You are...Qin Yi?" The other party's rising voice seemed a little surprised, "Oh, I really didn't expect you to take the initiative to call me. So, what's the matter?"

"It's something. I remember you said that if I need your help, I can call you. I don't know if I can do it now?"

Qin Yi's tone was calm, but Ji Hangfeng, who had been staring at him, was rather nervous, for fear that his blunt words would leave a bad impression on people—how could this be an attitude of asking for help?It's like a debt collector!

But then again, with this guy's arrogant and willful temper, if he speaks in a low voice, Ji Hangfeng might be worried that he will be impaled by his soul again.

In short, being his agent is really hard work!

Fortunately, Pei Hanrui seemed to be familiar with his attitude, smiled clearly, and said two words: "Of course."

Without waiting for Qin Yi to say what it was, he decided on his own: "Let's talk about it after we meet, I'll wait for you in Chixiao."

"it is good."

"So you agree?" Ji Hangfeng stared blankly at Qin Yi who was looking for socks and coats to go out, and asked with a frown, "I always feel like I've heard the name Pei Hanrui somewhere before."

"Look at the business card."

Qin Yi flipped around for a long time, and pulled out another sock from the sofa, but it obviously didn't match the one on his feet, but it didn't matter, anyway, it wasn't like he didn't wear shoes.

"NL clothing design company?!" Ji Hangfeng was taken aback, "When did you meet such a big guy? China branch, oh, I remembered where I saw it, and I saw some fashion before." There was a report in the magazine, saying that NL recently planned to open a branch in China as the headquarters to radiate Asia, and the person in charge was named Pei Hanrui, who was the favorite student of NL's legendary design master Der."

Qin Yi, who was struggling with the shoelaces, suddenly raised his head: "Is he a student of Der?"

"That's right." Ji Hangfeng squinted his eyes and recalled, "It was said in the magazine that he went to France to study after graduating from middle school, and later became Der's closed student. His graduation project was bought by Gehms the year it was published. And it has become a trend for a while, Gehms is known as a French aristocratic brand, and his parents are also big names in the circle, he is the real proud son of heaven."

The reason why Qin Yi knew Master Der was because of Yan Gui, but he didn't expect that he would know a disciple of Der now. Although he had never seen Pei Hanrui's design works with his own eyes, he could easily see that Yan Gui was the same as him just by listening to these comments. The gap between them can't be measured by Tao.

It took only a moment for Huangshen to pack himself up, and by the way, he slipped out Ji Hangfeng, the free driver, and drove himself to Chixiao.

Just like when Qin Yi first came to Chixiao, Ji Hangfeng also admired for a long time.

It was the cheongsam girl who led Qin Yi the way, she brought them to the same box with a smile on her face, and closed the door for them by the way.

When the two went in, they saw Pei Hanrui standing in front of the window holding a goblet, watching the band performance on the first floor with great interest.

The glass windows can be opened so that there is no sound insulation.

Hearing the sound of entering the door, Pei Hanrui didn't look back, but just raised his hand and said, "Come and see, today we invited a Japanese band with a strong sense of rhythm. It should suit the taste of young people like you, right?"

Qin Yi walked to him and looked at him for a while, then frowned and said, "I don't understand Japanese."

Pei Hanrui smiled faintly, and turned to look at him: "Art has no borders, and music is naturally among them."

After all, he didn't continue this topic, put the wine glass aside, turned and sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, and crossed his fingers gracefully on his thighs.

It's just a habitual sitting posture, which can't help but attract Qin Yi to look at him more.

"I don't know who this is?"

He looked at Ji Hangfeng with questioning eyes, and the latter replied sternly: "I'm Qin Yi's manager, Ji Hangfeng. It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Pei."

"I'm also very honored." Pei Hanrui smiled gently, raised his chin and raised his chin to the opposite chair, motioning them to sit down, "Let's talk about what happened just now. Do you have anything to ask for my help?"

"I need a sum of money, a lot of money." Qin Yi straight to the point unequivocally, he has never been able to play around and beat around the bush, and he didn't feel the slightest embarrassment.

So straightforward that even Ji Hangfeng beside him couldn't help worrying about him.

As expected, Pei Hanrui's face remained calm, and he just asked, "How much do you want?"

"About 100 million."

Due to the high income, the compensation in this industry is also quite high, but due to Qin Yi's special reasons, he doesn't take many jobs, so the savings are really a drop in the bucket compared to the compensation.

Hearing this number, Pei Hanrui didn't even frown, nodded and said: "If you need it, I can lend it to you."

Speaking of which, he even took out his wallet to get the check, Ji Hangfeng was shocked by his generosity, Qin Yi frowned: "You don't even ask me why I want it, do you have the ability to pay it back?"

"Okay, then why did you borrow this money?" Pei Hanrui asked along with his words, as if he was helplessly and tolerantly agreeing to a child's unreasonable request, Qin Yi was speechless for a while.

He was silent for a moment, and said bluntly: "I am going to leave T&D company. But my contract has not expired. If the company does not let me go, if the company unilaterally breaches the contract, it will need to pay a large sum of money."

Pei Hanrui nodded unsurprisingly: "What are your plans after leaving T&D?"

"I want to go to heaven."

"Oh? Why not SX? The two companies are about the same size and strength." Pei Hanrui asked with interest.

Qin Yi had already thought about it, so he said directly: "These two modeling agencies are the best agencies in the industry. On the surface, they are similar, and even SX is slightly better. But as Zhang Er said that day, At the beginning of the establishment of SX, male models were the main body, but now it is developing in a comprehensive direction, and most of the first-line supermodels in this company are male models.”

"Tianlu is just the opposite. There are many more female supermodels than male models, and Tianlu is not satisfied with this situation. Now it is vigorously cultivating its male models. This is my opportunity."

"SX is more than me, one is not more, I am not more, but Tianlu just needs a male model who can carry the weight."

As he said that, Qin Yi sat up straight, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, his eyes sharp and deep, as if he had changed into a different person, quite different from his previous loose appearance.

Ji Hangfeng looked at him thoughtfully, and thought with relief: Even considering these things, it seems that what he said was really not casual.

"So that's how it is." Pei Hanrui smiled, "However, why do you think you can become a male model who can carry the sky?"

Qin Yi didn't answer directly, but glanced at him, sneered and asked back: "Why did you agree to lend me such a large sum of money without asking?"

Hearing this, Pei Hanrui finally laughed out loud: "In this way, if you don't succeed, it's because of my poor vision? You're a bit smarter than I thought."

This sentence undoubtedly implies that Pei Hanrui really thinks he has this potential, and Qin Yi is not complacent, and calmly said: "So, I hope you can do me a little favor."

"Tell me." Pei Hanrui slowly leaned back on the sofa, speaking with a pleasant laziness in his voice.

"Tianlu's admission is very strict. I don't have any connections. If I just left the show without authorization and unilaterally violated the contract, even if my own conditions are fine, Tianlu may find it difficult to accept me. However, I want to use you ability, this kind of thing is just a trivial matter."

This time Pei Hanrui didn't immediately agree, and looked at him playfully: "Don't you think you're asking too much? Although I said that you can ask me for help, you want to borrow 100 million, I agreed, I just want to see There is nothing wrong with your potential, but that's all, there is no need to be responsive to you, right?"

Although the meaning was almost the same as refusal, Ji Hangfeng couldn't help being nervous for a while, but the other party's expression was not like that, so he temporarily gave up the idea of ​​helping.

Qin Yi looked confident and confident, and said confidently: "You don't need to be responsive to my requests. But, it is for yourself, you must help me with this favor."

"I would like to hear the details." Pei Hanrui raised his eyebrows slightly.

Then, he heard the other party reply shamelessly: "Because if I can't enter the pilgrimage, I will lose my job. If I lose my job, I will have no money to earn. If I don't have money, your 100 million will be in vain. But I I can guarantee that as long as you give me this opportunity, within three years, I will definitely pay back the money with interest."

Pei Hanrui: "..."

Ji Hangfeng: "..."

Pei Hanrui was silent for about half a minute before he couldn't help but say: "You always have a way to surprise me."

Ji Hangfeng looked at him with an extremely speechless face. In fact, you obviously want to say that this guy is shameless and narcissistic. Hey, hey!Also put it so euphemistically.

But as a manager, he didn't come to tear things down, so he could only painfully hold back the nagging desire, oh, God, why is there only wine and no mineral water here!

"Tianlu has indeed been recruiting male models recently. Our NL has also cooperated with them a lot in China. Of course, recommending a model to enter is just a piece of cake. However, I have always been a person who separates public and private. I am willing to lend you money to terminate the contract. As for work, what I can do to help you is to give you a place as an intern. As for whether Tianlu is willing to sign a contract with you in the end, it depends on your own strength. I won't say hello and ask someone to take extra special care of you."

After hearing these words, Qin Yi raised the corners of his mouth in exceptional satisfaction: "It's exactly what I want."

After answering a phone call, Ji Hangfeng had to take a step ahead.

Talking to this point, Qin Yi's goal was basically achieved, and it went smoothly beyond his expectations. At the same time, he couldn't help wondering why Pei Hanrui was so generous to himself who had only known him for a few days.

The so-called being courteous for nothing is either adultery or robbery, even though he could feel that the other party was not malicious, he still couldn't help but be baffled.

Pei Hanrui... What exactly do you want from me?

When he came back to his senses, he realized that he had already asked the question. Pei Hanrui smiled and replied: "I am a designer and a businessman at the same time. You can regard this 100 million as my investment in you."

"Then what if you can't even recover the cost?"

Pei Hanrui's gaze slowly lingered on him, becoming deeper and deeper, a smile curled up on his lips, and his deep voice was full of seductive charm: "Don't worry about this, even if it's meat compensation, it's enough to get back the money .”

"What did you say?" Qin Yi raised his eyebrows.

"It's just a joke, don't worry about it." Pei Hanrui lowered his head and took a sip of his wine, before returning to his indifferent expression.

The band performance on the first floor is still going on, but the performance time belonging to the Japanese band has passed, and it is replaced by melodious piano performance.

The warm sound of the piano floats in the air, soaking the heart and spleen in peace and comfort.

Pei Hanrui squinted his eyes and admired for a while, then opened his eyes and stared at Qin Yi: "That's the decision, let's talk about some private matters. Look at the situation that night, you broke up with your little designer lover?"

"...I didn't expect you to gossip." Qin Yi looked away, obviously not wanting to talk about this topic.

"Hehe, all kinds of nasty things are happening in this circle every day." Pei Hanrui didn't care, and said lightly, "If you can't get rid of the innocence in the past, it will be difficult for you to really stand out in the future. For example, your ridiculous 'exclusive model', to be honest, I was really surprised and disappointed when I first found out."

"But fortunately, you woke up in time. In the future, you still have a long way to go."

At this moment, Qin Yi turned his head to meet his gaze, frowned and said: "That was a choice I made voluntarily. Now that I have made the decision, I will not regret it. Even if the ending is not as I expected, it only shows that my vision is too narrow. Poor. People like you won't understand."

Pei Hanrui leaned forward slightly, with a gentle tone: "Do you mean - love?"

Qin Yixu kept his eyes shut and didn't speak.

"In the eyes of ordinary people, it may be a very precious thing, but in this circle, it is very cheap." Pei Hanrui spoke slowly in the tone of an elderly man, his fingertips gently stroking the rim of the cup, It seems to be sighing, but also admonishing, "Love will only make people weak, I believe you have already experienced it."

Qin Yi pursed his lips, but never spoke.

It wasn't until Pei Hanrui got up, patted him on the shoulder, and walked to the door that he heard a low response from behind: "Ah, maybe you are right."

That concludes the conversation for tonight.After returning home, Qin Yi stood in front of the mirror, put his right hand on his chest pocket, and there was a thin check in it, but it weighed heavily on his heart.

After a long time, he changed in the mirror, and an inevitable smile gradually emerged from the corner of his mouth.

Starting today, not a second of time can be wasted.

Qin Yi stuck out the tip of his tongue and licked his dry lips lightly.

What is the scenery at the top like?

He really wanted to see it.

As for the past, let them go with the wind!
