Chapter 81   - Who said we would give them any breaChapter of contract fees

There were many strange things about this Weibo post, and the strangest of all was the poster—Zhou Mi Entertainment.

At first sight, anyone could tell that it wasn’t the name of an e-sports club, but rather seemed to be something more of a brokerage company.

Sure enough, a lot of doubts soon popped up in the trending comments below the post.

[What’s an entertainment company like you doing here…]

This post had just been released, and the comments below it were few and far between. This particular netizen had just thought that it was a fake melon and so commented randomly.

What they hadn’t expected was to receive a reply within a few seconds.

[Zhou Mi Entertainment: Our company has changed its name.]

This reply was casual and perfunctory. The stream followers didn’t really care and continued to treat it as a joke.

[Changing a name means you’ve even changed the nature of your company? Then your company is pretty casual ?]

[Lololololol, don’t know where this little tier 18 company came from. I’ve never heard of it.]

[I went to check. This company only has four artists, and all of them are nobodies in the entertainment circle. Only one of them has actually been in a show… Is the entertainment company really sure they’re not kidding? Let me give you guys a suggestion —If you want to deliberately provoke someone, go provoke someone big , you’ll definitely get onto the trending topics search list that way.]

[The name of this anchor is familiar, did he get pretty popular in the livestream circle recently ?]

Who would have known that that very afternoon, Zhou Mi Entertainment’s official Weibo would suddenly upload a video.

It was a video of a boy playing a game. The boy was wearing a red long-sleeve shirt with a round collar and had a clean haircut. Since he was young, his facial features weren’t fully developed, but at a glance, he still looked clean and handsome.

In the video, the person next to him said something indistinct, and then the boy laughed and said, “En… didn’t train too long.”

“You didn’t sleep again last night ?”

“Slept a little on the sofa.”

“Well, young people are tigers.” The man stood up and patted the boy on the shoulder. “Practice well, our team is counting on you, ha ha. However, you should still take care to take a break, and go to sleep after finishing this match.”

“Okay,” the boy replied, but obviously didn’t take him seriously as he said, “Thank you, 6 Ge.”

At this point, the video ended abruptly.

With just these 20 short seconds, the response the video garnered was much greater than that of the announcement in the morning.

Weibo really flared up by dinnertime, which was also the peak time when viewers flowed into livestreams.

At that time, Yu Yan was playing in the final circle. There were only two players left in his team, while the other team still had a full roster, thus the atmosphere was tense.

Yu Yan heard the sound of crawling and immediately said, “There’s someone in my face.”

His teammate replied, “Coming, give me the coordinates.”

Yu Yan said, “Approximately…”

The barrage popped up at this time, with everyone messaging the same thing. It was as though they had all arranged to do so beforehand.

[Xiao Yan, don’t play games right now, quickly go look at Weibo!]

[There’s a company saying that they were your former employer and that you’re in breach of contract and now wants to sue you…]

[I saw it too! It’s called Zhou Mi Entertainment or something right? It must be fake. Xiao Yan has never played professionally ???]

Yu Yan’s words to his teammate were also interrupted by this sudden appearance of the barrage.

“Bro, I don’t see them , are they near you? Bro?” His teammate said frantically, “Give me some coordinates bro.”

Yu Yan snapped out of it, and upon seeing the enemy slowly crawling towards him, quickly opened his scope and shot at the grass.

The kill prompt popped up, and his tone was normal as he said, “No need to come, I killed him.”It was his account book, and it hadn’t been used for a long time, because he hadn’t spent a lot recently, the only exception being the mainframe.

He opened his streaming account and copied all his earnings into the black book. He was about to check his debit card account when suddenly, his cellphone rang.

Yi Chen was video-calling him.

Yu Yan sat up straight and closed the book in front of him before picking up the call.

Yi Chen was sitting in his office chair, and after he tossed the last document aside, he put his cellphone in front of him.

This week, in terms of flights alone, he had already made five trips, due to one meeting after another, and had had many documents to approve. He had been so busy that even 24 hours in a day hadn’t seemed enough.

But even if it wasn’t enough, he wouldn’t miss their video-call every night.

The video-call rang for a long time before he heard a click, and then they were connected.

Yu Yan sat cross legged on the bed. After catching sight of the man on his cellphone, he relaxed slightly.

He managed a smile as he asked, “Finished working?”

“En.” Yi Chen looked at him for a moment before he also asked, “What’s the matter?”

Yu Yan was given a start and shook his head quickly in reply, “Nothing …”

“Your smile is very unsightly.”

“……” He was too straightforward.

And too observant .

Yu Yan said, “It’s just that something happened during the livestream.”

“Is it serious?” Yi Chen asked.

“It’s not serious, just a small thing.” Yu Yan could no longer force himself to smile. He said seriously, “I can handle it myself.”

He wasn’t trying to be brave here. Just now, he had been totalling the amount of money in his accounts in order to calculate how much savings he had. and planning to use this money to hire a lawyer.

Yu Minyang seemed to be most adept at divorce cases, but there were several other lawyers in his law firm, so maybe he could get a discount. Yu Yan put together all the money he had earned from gifts, his contractual livestream salary, and the bonus he had obtained from the Kills King of the Year award, and thought it would be more than enough for a lawsuit.

“En, I believe you.” Yi Chen leaned back, propped up his legs, and relaxed. “But I still want to know, what happened?”

The young man at the other end frowned, and it looked as if he was thinking about whether to say it or not.

Seeing this, Yi Chen’s eyebrow lightly ticked up a bit. “I just want to shoulder some burdens for my boyfriend.”

The word “boyfriend” was really an invincible and ultimate weapon.

Yu Yan thought that he would even give Yi Chen the password for his debit card without any reservations at this moment if he asked for it.

He bit his lips and said, “It’s just… I used to play professionally.”

Yu Yan shortened the story to a very simple one: he had joined the team with a dream, played for the team for nearly a year, had even won several championships, but the salary for one year had added up to less than 2000 yuan. Recently, the company had appeared again and was accusing him of breach of contract.

On the surface, Yi Chen seemed to be listening to the whole story calmly. He looked the same as he did usually, but only if you ignored the deep anger in his eyes.

“You don’t need a lawyer.” After a long pause, Yi Chen continued, “You’re an anchor of StarTV. The platform will help you solve this problem.”

Yu Yan hurriedly said, “But I didn’t breach the contract. I don’t need to pay any fees for breaching it at all…”

Yi Chen let out an unclear laugh and asked in a cool voice, “Who said we would give them any breach of contract fees?”
