Chapter 177: Fellow Villagers Meet Fellow Villagers

180. Meet fellow villagers

In the practice room of SJ Company, Song Qian, Liu Yun, Park Sunmi, Choi Xueri, and Zheng Jingxiu had just finished their rehearsals. After saying goodbye to the choreographer, their manager came in and said.

"Go and clean up, the big boss wants to see you."

The five of them looked at each other, and Cui Xueli, the boldest one, asked, "Sister MAY, is the boss going to release a new album for us?"

MAY shook her head: "I don't know, this is what Representative Cui told me. You go and wash up first, and follow me up to see the boss later."

"Oh." The five of them muttered, turned and walked towards the locker room.

In the locker room, the lively Cui Xueli couldn't help but muttered: "Could it be that the boss asked us to go inside?"

"Which one is it?" Park Sun-mi, the youngest, and Zheng Jingxiu asked.

Liu Yun and Song Qian had sad expressions on their faces. Seeing the simple and beautiful expressions of the elder sisters, Zheng Jingxiu also understood what was going on.

Cui Xueli, who was born in 1994, said arrogantly: "Hmph, even if I die, I will not accompany those bad old men."

After the five people slowly changed their clothes, they followed the agent MAY and walked towards the office building. The Bangzi Girl Group has a long-standing tradition of accompanying big shots to dinner and drinks.

In other companies, it would be their good fortune for a street fighting group like Five People to be "spotted" by the big boss. Liu Yun and Song Qian, the oldest ones, were heartbroken.

Park Sun-mi, Jung Jung-soo, and Choi Seol-ri firmly believe that gold will always shine, and they will conquer the audience with their strength.

But the sad thing is that in Bangzi Country, there are too many capable people. But how many of you can become famous? Why do the artists in Bangzi Country’s variety shows still rush to be the first to appear on them even though the advertising fee is pitifully small?

Not just for the sake of exposure, Song Qian heard from a senior that for a show she attended before, the advertising fee was equivalent to less than 1,000 Chinese dollars, not including food, accommodation and transportation.

But her round-trip fare has exceeded 500 yuan, and she still needs to pay thousands more for food and accommodation.

Despite this, the senior still went to participate at his own expense, because if you don't go, it means you have no exposure. Without exposure in Bangzi Country, a country where artists are produced on an assembly line, it is no different than waiting to die.

So why do so many artists try to climb up at all costs? This is the saddest thing.

The girls followed MAY through a luxuriously decorated area, and the girls couldn't help but look envious in their eyes.

"Boss, they are here." Li Quanhyuk, who was reviewing the contract, heard Cui Zhenyi's words and said without raising his head, "Let them in."

"Hello, boss." Under the leadership of MAY, the five women walked into the office cautiously, and saw Li Quanhe and the other women who were still reviewing official documents and said hello with 90-degree bows.

After the girls waited uneasily for a while, Li Quanhe slowly put down the documents in his hands and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous. I'm giving you a big gift by calling you here today."

"Big gift?" the girls asked in their hearts.

Li Quanhe smiled and said: "Tonight I will invite Mr. Tang Wen, the boss of WF Group, to dinner. Then you will attend with me as Mr. Tang's tour guide."

"WF Group?" The girls were stunned.

Song Qian was particularly surprised. She knew WF Group best. It was difficult for her not to know the hotly searched news about the CEO of China WF Group during the Chinese New Year.

Not to mention the terrifying financial resources of WF Group, she never imagined that she would have the opportunity to have dinner with her "mysterious brother-in-law".

Unlike Song Qian, the other girls only knew that WF Group was a large consortium, and they didn't know anything else. As street artists, they don't even think about their qualifications to meet people of this level.

Li Quanhyuk was very satisfied with the performance of the girls and introduced: "This time I invite Mr. Tang from WF Group to come and inspect the company. If WF Group can become a shareholder, you will all be "heroes" by then."

After speaking, Li Quanhyuk asked Cui Zhenyi to hand each of the girls a document and said with a smile: "If it succeeds this time, this will be your new contract."

"Concert? New packaging? New contract?" The girls opened the document with doubts and found that inside was a contract they had dreamed of.

It’s not just a split, there are new endorsements, and a complete packaging. It is no exaggeration to say that this is already a contract for a top artist.

"Go back and dress up. Your fate tonight is up to you." Li Quanhyuk didn't say much. He knew how tempting the contract in front of him was to these street artists.

Song Qian lamented most that even the senior artists she came into contact with were not treated so well. As for how to get this treatment, it depends on their own choice.

The girls left the office with very complicated feelings. After returning to the dormitory, the girls gathered together stupidly. No one had any intention of speaking.

After Song Qian was stunned for a while, she picked up the contract and returned to the room. This wasn't the reason why she traveled across the ocean. She wasn't going to give up on this opportunity that was so readily available to her.

Liu Yun was stunned for a moment, then turned back to the room. The remaining Park Sun-mi and Zheng Jingxiu looked at each other and entered their room.

The rebellious Cui Xueli watched the sisters leave and wanted to say something, but she couldn't say the words.

Advise sisters to keep themselves clean? Stop making trouble, the current environment in Bangzi Country is great if you can have a job. What qualifications do you have to ask others?

Thinking of this, Cui Xueli walked towards her room helplessly. The pressure of survival still made her compromise. However, she secretly made up her mind in her heart that at most she would just treat it as a dog bite.

While Tang Wen was resting in the country of South Korea, Europe was already undercurrents. Although the Knights Templar were hidden, their strength should not be underestimated.

"Ding ding ding"

The phone rang, and Tang Wen yawned and answered the phone.

"BOSS, the Knights Templar are gathering." MK's voice rang, and Tang Wen suddenly woke up and muttered to himself: "It's going to change."

As MK told the story, Tang Wen knew that the Knights Templar were serious this time. However, what Tang Wen didn't expect was that the leader this time would be the royal family of Monaco.

Even Tang Wen didn't expect that this small Mediterranean country would go against such a behemoth as the Eye of Power, but MK explained that the royal family of Monaco was also a supporter of the Knights Templar.

As France pursued the Templars, many of them returned to Monaco, the country that supported the Holy Land before, and survived under their protection.

In this fight against the Eye of Power, the descendants of the Templars in Monaco made a lot of efforts. They were not only responsible for contacting the descendants of the Templars from all over the country, but also found many royal families to stand up for themselves.

The Vatican also asked the royal families of Sweden and Norway to ask the Eye of Power to give an explanation. From MK, Tang Wen learned that there were more than 300 members of the Templars this time.

Among them, there were more than 150 "nobles" in Europe, which was not surprising to Tang Wen. You must know that although the Templars were poor knights, you must know that in the Middle Ages, the lowest knights who could become knights were all titles.

Generally, the lowest members who could enter the Templars were viscounts, and these people had various relationships with their "mothers' families", which could be said to be complicated.

If France had not had the help of the Eye of Power at that time, it would not have been able to deal with the Templars. The leader of the Knights Templar at that time was a duke.

Deputy leader Hornpu is also an earl appointed by the king of the Holy Land. In terms of bloodline, their status is much higher than that of the current British old woman.

At present, the "most orthodox" bloodline in Europe is the royal family of Monaco. Compared with them, the British old woman and the Italian side can only be regarded as rural farmers.

But unfortunately, the royal family of Monaco has always been carrying the legendary "curse". Some people say that it is because they accepted the sinners, the Knights Templar, and some say that they have betrayed the Lord when the Holy Land fell, so they have been cursed.

Tang Wen originally disdained this, but after hearing MK talk about some secrets of the Monaco royal family, he couldn't help but be a little scared.

This royal family is really "unlucky". Cuckolding and cheating can be seen everywhere, but the strange thing is that after so many things, they can still maintain the purity of their bloodline, which is also something that makes Tang Wen quite speechless.

"Oh, can this mob resist the Eye of Power?" Tang Wen was very confused after listening to MK's narration. In his opinion, although the "identity" of these people in the Templar organization is good, it is just like thunder and rain.

The wealth and status of the Eye of Power are far beyond their reach.

"Boss, you don't know this. The Templars have more than one treasure. This time, they are said to have taken out the vault of Venice, the water city, to attack the Eye of Power."

"What the hell? They still have buried treasures?" Tang Wen was surprised.

MK smiled and said, "Yes, Boss, during the peak period of the Templars, more than one-third of the wealth in the whole of Europe belonged to them. Naturally, there is more than one treasure place."

"It's really a cunning rabbit with three burrows." Tang Wen muttered.

I thought I picked up a big leak, but I didn't expect that they still had a backhand. And from what MK said, it seems that the Templars have more than a few treasure places, and they should have more powerful backhands.

Otherwise, why has the Eye of Power never dared to launch a general attack on the orphans of the Knights Templar after so many years, but instead secretly inquired about it.

Even the Hornp family only dared to act secretly and did not dare to do anything excessive.

"Okay, I know. Notify the secret line to continue the reconnaissance and report to me as soon as possible if there is any situation." Tang Wen said cautiously after thinking for a moment.

"Yes, Boss, I understand."

Tang Wen does not need to worry too much about the Knights Templar and the Eye of Power at present. After all, everything he did in the Holy Mountain was very "perfect" and with the Eye of Power as the scapegoat, they can't deny it even if they want to.

He should take a good rest and prepare for tonight's dinner. Tang Wen was very curious about this, and he also wanted to know what kind of "tour guide" Li Quanhe would find for him.
