Perfect Superstar Chapter 72

Lu Xi did not believe Lu Chen’s words at all . Because she knew very well how much debt the family had to repay, it would normally take a lifetime for their family to repay it, and she had to work very hard to make money .

Except for a miracle or winning the lottery?

Lu Xi never bought lottery tickets, and she never pinned her hopes on illusory luck .

Fang Yun hesitated for a moment and said, “Little Xi, Little Chen just got 1,000,000 back . He earned it by singing . He didn’t talk nonsense . ”

A mother is the only person who best understands her son . He is her own flesh and blood1 . Fang Yun understands Lu Chen’s thought very well .

Lu Chen wants Lu Xi to continue her studies .

“Mom!”

Lu Xi stared in disbelief and said, “Why are you talking nonsense with him?”

When did Lu Chen became a big star where he can earn 1,000,000 from singing?

That only happened in fantasy story!

At this time, however, Lu Xi suddenly remembered that not long ago Lu Chen had remitted 300,000 yuan to their family .

She couldn’t help closing her mouth .

“Wow!”

Lu Xue cried out and worshipped, “Brother, you’re too fierce!”

She has 100% trust in Lu Chen . The most important thing is that since Lu Chen can make money now, there will be no problem giving her the beautiful laptop .

“All right, let’s not talk about that…”

Fang Yun did not want to embarrass her daughter . She said, “Little Xi, come and help me cook . ”

Lu Xi’s temper is very stubborn, so some things are better for the mother and daughter to communicate in private .

Fang Yun pulled Lu Xi to prepare lunch . Lu Chen took clothes from the suitcase to take a bath . Lu Xue played with her new computer . the small home was filled with the warm atmosphere of reunion .

Plates of hot and fragrant dishes were brought to the table . And although there was no big fish and meat, Lu Chen ate it particularly sweet, because this is a taste of home and could not be tasted anywhere else .

At about the same time, Lu Chen asked, “Big Sister, do you have license as a financial agent?”

Of the three children of the Lu family, Lu Xi is a well-deserved high achiever . When she took the college entrance examination that year, she only failed the exam because of a bad cold, otherwise she would have no problem going to Beijing University or Tsinghua University .

Then Lu Xi didn’t retake the exam, went directly to Jianghai University to study finance, and was ready to go to Beijing University after graduation . But because of the changes at home, she gave up further studies .

Lu Chen knew that she had obtained many professional certificates during her university years, so he asked .

Lu Xi said, “Yes, what do you want to do?”

After Fang Yun’s persuasion and explanation, her attitude towards Lu Chen was finally much better .

It’s just that the prejudices of the past are not so easy to turn around .

Lu Chen talked about the process of talking about the new contract with [Whale TV], and finally said, “I originally wanted to ask for a 1,000,000 signing fee, but when we finally talked about it, I only ask for 650,000 . I couldn’t save face . ”

Lu Xi was surprised . “You mean you agreed to a contract of 1,000,000 for 650,000?”

Lu Chen nodded with a bitter smile .

In fact, the matter is not that simple, but in order to be able to persuade Lu Xi, he is willing to carry the pot2 .

“Why are you so stupid!”

Lu Xi was really angry, “If you’re like this, you won’t even know if someone sold you!”

1,000,000 and 650,000, a total difference of 350,000 . How long will it take for her to earn this money?

Lu Chen took this opportunity to say, “Therefor, I would like to invite you to be my agent and let you talk about the contract for me in the future . I’m going to open a studio in Beijing, and I need someone to help me . ”

He does need a reliable agent, and he does want to open a studio .

Although several entertainment media companies have already approached Lu Chen to sign him .

But after careful consideration, Lu Chen gave up the conventional way of signing contracts, training, debuting, publicize and hype to become famous . Because there are great restrictions on people’s rights and interests .

His idea is to open a personal studio, so that he can cooperate with any company or individual, and then maximize his own interests, and have the power to make decisions freely .

Nowadays, many big names in the entertainment circle have opened studios one after another, precisely for the same reason .

Although Lu Chen is still unknown compared with them, he has the wealth of a world!

With those precious memories, only others will ask for his share in the future .

Of course, these are Lu Chen’s preliminary ideas, and there is still a lot of work to be done to implement them .

Inviting Lu Xi to be his own agent is the first step he has taken .

But Lu Xi was not so easy to persuade, “Entertainment agents and financial agents are different . ”

Lu Chen smiled and said: “Bargaining negotiations are the same . If you come to help me, maybe we only need a year to pay off the debt, and you can also come to the Capital to take the postgraduate entrance examination, and be a part-time agent . ”

The postgraduate exam at Beijing University is held in mid-August . Lu Xi has enough time to prepare for it .

Lu Xi doubted, “How do I feel that you are setting me up . ”

She is not a fool . How could she not recognize Lu Chen’s intention?

Although that’s what she said, the look in Lu Xi’s eyes showed that she was really moved .

Lu Chen smiled but did not speak .

Fang Yun said, “Little Xi, go and help Little Chen . You said that he will be a star in the future . The entertainment circle is so chaotic . With you in Little Chen side, supervising him, I can rest assured . ”

Lu Xue swallowed the food in her mouth and shouted, “Brother, I support you to be a star…”

“Big stars like An Xu, Yi Yang and Wang Yuanfan!”

Fang Yun hit her on the head with chopsticks and said, “Eat seriously, don’t interrupt when adults talk!”

“I’m 17 years old . I’m an adult . ”

Lu Xue muttered, still burying her head in the bowl to deal with the food .

Lu Xi finally made a decision, “Okay then, I’ll try it . ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen and Fang Yun smiled at the same time .

Lu Xi said to Lu Chen, “Don’t be proud yet . I’ll take good care of you when I get to the Capital!”

Lu Chen’s smile suddenly turned into a wry smile .

But it’s a good start, isn’t it?

After dinner, he followed Fang Yun, carrying a backpack full of money to pay off their debts .

Lu Qingsheng owed a lot of debts, including his relatives, friends, comrades-in-arms, former colleagues and business partners, a considerable number of them .

When Fang Yun pays off their debts, as long as the other party is in Binhai City, she will visit their house in person .

This is the first time Lu Chen accompanied his mother to pay back the money, and he deeply realized that it was not easy for his mother .

Fortunately, these creditors are very reasonable . No matter whether they are relatives or friends, they did not give them any embarrassment . Instead, they gave them very warm reception, and many people said that they were not in a hurry .

And they are all very interested in Lu Chen .

“Little Chen has grown up!”

“Little Chen is very handsome . Where does he work?”

“Does Little Chen have a girlfriend?”

“Little Chen is good…”

Running all the way, all 1,000,000 were all repaid, Lu Chen’s face was stiff with smile, and the sky was already dark . He stayed at home for three days and took the high-speed train to Hangzhou on the afternoon of the 8th .

Binhai is only 200 kilometers away from Hangzhou . It takes 40 minutes to get there by high-speed train . Then one can transfer to the subway in Hangzhou station and go directly to the station of Jianghai University, which is very convenient .

Looking at the familiar school gate, Lu Chen has a feeling of being separated from the world .

As soon as his junior school year was over, he applied to the school for early social practice and went to the Capital to work .

As a result, he took a completely different path in life .

One year later, Lu Chen will say goodbye to this campus, which has left him countless beautiful, sad, touching and warm memories .

At this moment, he was somewhat unable to take a step .

“Old Three!”

Suddenly someone patted Lu Chen on the shoulder behind him .

Lu Chen could not help turning around and saw a tall man with thick beards and dregs looking at him with a smile and saying, “I thought I saw you in the distance and I was right!”

“Boss!3”

Lu Chen was surprised, “When did you get back?”

This burly man is his classmate Gao He, a Jinan native of Shandong Province, and one of Lu Chen’s three roommates in his dormitory . He ranks as the eldest according to his age and has always had a good relationship with Lu Chen .

Gao He smiled and said, “Just come back . Let’s go back to our dormitory together . I don’t know if Old K4 and Old Four have arrived . ”

Lu Chen, of course, had no objection . They talked and laughed and walked towards the dormitory building .
