Chapter 190: A Road of No Return
"Is there a second Mr. Zhang in our company?"
Wang Xiaoxiao spread his hands helplessly.
Hua Sui Rui suddenly stopped talking. Although Endme was still a little angry, she didn\'t know what to say for a while.
That was the boss of Wuyou Media, a big shot who could shock the entire Hangzhou internet celebrity circle with just a stomp of his feet.
Although I heard that Wuyou Media is not wholly owned by the Zhang Group, and there are other shareholders and consortium representatives behind it, at least on the surface of the company, Zhang Shihao alone has the final say.
Not to mention Wang Xiaoxiao, even Lin Dantong, the company\'s first sister, probably wouldn\'t dare to disobey Mr. Zhang\'s instructions.
After all, with Wuyou\'s size in the MCN world, the most indispensable thing is the so-called "big internet celebrities".
As long as Mr. Zhang is willing, he can bring out another Li Xiaoxiao and Gao Xiaoxiao to replace her Wang Xiaoxiao at any time, which is nothing more than a waste of time and traffic...
"But... there must be a lot of people from the company in Hangzhou these two days. Why did they come to you?" Endme asked incomprehensively.
"My manager doesn\'t know either, but I guess...maybe people think that people like us who sell songs will be relatively clean?"
Wang Xiaoxiao smiled sadly and laughed at himself, "Maybe that distinguished guest is my \'fan\'..."
Hua Sui Sui Sui looked at Wang Xiaoxiao who seemed about to cry, feeling distressed and not knowing what to say.
Because they are close in age, she is the one who can best understand Wang Xiaoxiao\'s helplessness.
Wang Xiaoxiao\'s past experience was also very bumpy. He participated in a singing talent show in his early years and achieved a good ranking. Unfortunately, because he was hidden by the company, he has been tepid. Seeing that his youth is about to pass, Wang Xiao, who was originally resigned to his fate, has been tepid. I was young, but I waited until the mobile Internet broke out.
She caught up with the trend and accumulated hundreds of thousands of fans. Later, after signing with Wuyou, she had a smooth journey, and she now has the status of a major Internet celebrity singer.
So she cherishes everything in front of her very much.
Hua Sui Sui also knew that another reason why Wang Xiaoxiao was unwilling to offend Mr. Zhang was the existence of another entertainment media subsidiary of the Zhang Group...
Wang Xiaoxiao\'s path in the Internet celebrity circle has almost come to an end. Now she is actually just one chance away from entering the entertainment industry.
Although Internet celebrity singers and singers may appear to be just two words apart from each other on the surface, and they often interact with each other online, the internal differences are still fundamental...
You say you are an Internet celebrity. No matter how popular you are, there will always be people who think you are just a higher-end "Internet beggar". But as a singer, you seem to be able to put on a layer of art, and you are completely different in style. Same.
So Hua Sui Sui Sui knew Wang Xiaoxiao\'s inner struggle.
She may be resisting, but she may actually be accepting her fate...
In their circle, this kind of thing is not uncommon. Some Internet celebrities are even eager to have more such opportunities and regard it as a shortcut to progress.
But it just so happens that the three girls in this room are among the few who are clean and self-sufficient, otherwise they wouldn\'t be best friends.
It\'s just that unlike Endme, who is considered a post-2000 generation, Hua Sui Sui Sui and Wang Xiao Xiao\'s age no longer allows them to be willful.
Faced with this kind of thing, Hua Sui Sui Sui is a little more confident than Wang Xiaoxiao.
After all, even if she quits, the worst she can do is withdraw from the industry and find a pleasing and capable man to marry...
In fact, this is what she is doing now.
But Wang Xiaoxiao still has the ambition to show off her singing voice and get on a bigger stage, which means that she has almost no escape route for herself.
"Xiaoxiao, I don\'t think you need to think too badly about things now. What if it\'s not the \'hidden rules\' you think?"
Hua Sui Sui thought for a while and comforted: "My agent, Sister Lin Ran, also told me some similar examples. Not every client will come for that kind of thing. They just want to have a meal with you." Chatting over a meal, taking a group photo, etc., this kind of situation also exists..."
"What kind of special case is that?"
Wang Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment and then said: "Actually, I was wondering if you two could accompany me, so that the guest would have some concerns even if he has any ideas..."
"I think this is a way. After all, this is a society ruled by law. If it doesn\'t work, we will take you to retreat. Anyway, there is a contract, and Mr. Zhang can\'t do anything to you..."
Endme nodded immediately, "Shui Sui, what do you think?"
Hua Sui Sui glanced at Endme dumbfounded and wanted to say, Xi Xi, why are you still so naive?
If you go with Xiaoxiao, aren\'t you afraid of getting yourself involved too?
But with Endme\'s age and experience, it\'s normal for her to think so...
After all, Endme has rarely encountered any setbacks in her life. When she was in college, she was a well-known innocent school beauty on the Internet. She had already accumulated a lot of fans before she graduated. Now she has a boyfriend who is happy with her, and it was she who terminated the contract with her former company. Someone brought it up when he was unhappy...
Compared to herself and Xiaoxiao, she does still have the capital to be naive.
"I might..."
Hua Sui Rui shook her head and was about to refuse.
If there was nothing else, she would be happy to help Wang Xiaoxiao, but unfortunately, Zhou Wang came to Hangzhou.
Judging from Zhou Wang\'s tone, it was clear that he wanted to date her.
After waiting for so long, Zhou Wang was the only boy who caught her eye, and she didn\'t want to miss this opportunity.
Ding dong!
Just at this moment, Hua Sui Sui Sui Sui\'s cell phone rang again. She quickly picked it up and looked at it, and then she exclaimed "Yeah".
"What\'s wrong?"
Wang Xiaoxiao and Endme both looked over in confusion.
"Um... Xiaoxiao, show me the chat history between you and your agent again."
Hua Sui Sui Sui didn\'t have time to explain, she just took Wang Xiaoxiao\'s phone and looked at it again, "Is it really... such a coincidence?"
"What a coincidence, what are you talking about?"
Endme asked blankly.
"Well, it\'s like this... I have a very important friend who happened to invite me to dinner tonight. The place where he invited me is the same place that Xiaoxiao is going to, which is the Sands Room of the Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake."
Hua Sui Sui Sui didn\'t hide anything, she hugged Wang Xiaoxiao and said with a smile: "So we can go there together. If anything happens, I can still take care of you!"
...
"Mr. Zhou, the care is over. Please rate my service. If there is anything you are not satisfied with, please tell me."
In the SPA room of the Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake, which was lit with high-end aromatherapy, Zhou Wang opened his eyes from his drowsiness when he heard the soft voice of technician No. 88 of the spa center.
He waved his hand to indicate that he understood. After the technician put down a form, he bowed and exited the room, leaving silence to Zhou Wang.

Yes, Zhou Wang came to do a SPA again...
Logically speaking, he did this before leaving Mingcheng in the morning. He should not be here at this time, but there is no way. Who let Xu Wenqian and Jiang Qingkui leave first.
Because he didn\'t have dinner until half past seven, Zhou Wang was really bored and couldn\'t stop Xiao An from planting grass, so he sinfully walked into the spa center of the Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake again...
If it were an ordinary SPA center, Zhou Wang Renren would be fine, but the spa at the Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake really has something special.
Through Xiao An\'s introduction, the hotel is famous in Hangzhou for two things besides its own accommodation environment.
One of them is the special spa, and it\'s not just a boast, it has an honorary certification——
The spa at the Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake in Hangzhou has won the Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star Spa Award and the SPA China Award for seven consecutive years.
Zhou Wang was shocked when he saw the two signs on the wall. Forgetting the Forbes certification, the spa actually had the China Award, which really opened Zhou Wang\'s eyes.
He clearly couldn\'t resist the temptation of an award-winning spa.
After all, massage is really addictive, and Zhou Wang is still very addicted now...
He felt that he had also embarked on the path of no return of "bathing the emperor".
The spa center at the Four Seasons at West Lake has five special programs, such as scented bath therapy, facial rejuvenation, salon gathering, etc. Zhou Wang chose the classic "Royal Spa" to experience it.
After experiencing it, he felt that he should experience all five projects if he had time...
It is indeed very distinctive.
The first step is a "Longjing Jade Spring Tea Bath", where you take a bath with tea soup brewed from Longjing. The massage oil Zhou Wang chose is also from the Longjing series, which is equivalent to a complete "Longjing SPA".
The treatments used are all luxury brands such as Xibomi, Ruibofei and Baoli. The environment is also good, there is a ground soaking pool, but the color of the light makes it easy to fall asleep...
Jiangnan\'s technician\'s technique had a unique flavor, as if he was not just talking, but even the massaging fingers had the gentleness of Wu Nong\'s soft words, which Zhou Wang enjoyed quite a bit.
The price is not too expensive for a high-end spa. Each item costs more than a thousand. As for the basic items for weekly consumption, it is already included in the room rate, so there is no need to pay extra.
After taking a nap in the room for a while, Zhou Wang opened his eyes and picked up his phone. Only then did he realize that he had missed several calls——
When enjoying, Zhou Wang likes to turn on mute so as not to disturb his interest.
The number was from Hangzhou, ending in "6868", which was the phone number of Uncle Zhang Dashao that Zhou Wang had saved before, so Zhou Wang quickly called back.
"Hahaha, it\'s Zhou Wang, right? Your new number is awesome, no wonder I can\'t call in..."
As soon as the phone was answered, a loud laugh rang out over there. Although the tone of the speech was bold, the tone was quite elegant.
With a general image of Zhang Shihao in his mind, Zhou Wang explained with a smile: "Second uncle, I have actually put your number on the whitelist. I didn\'t answer just now because I was having a massage..."
"Oh, no wonder, it\'s the spa at the Four Seasons Hotel. The massages there are pretty good..."
Zhang Shihao understood and said with a smile: "But you don\'t have to greet me as a junior. After all, you are also one of the shareholders. If you think highly of me, just call me second brother!"
Um?
Wouldn\'t that Young Master Zhang also become my eldest nephew?
How does this make...
"Okay, second brother!"
Zhou Wang agreed immediately.
"I\'m sorry, brother. I have a very important event today, and it involves the Wuyou Night the day after tomorrow. I really can\'t leave, so I can only ask Biaozi to pick you up on my behalf... I originally planned to come back to meet you in the evening. Let\'s have a meal together and help you catch the wind, but it seems I\'m not free now."
Zhang Shihao quickly explained to Zhou Wang with some apology.
"I understand. It will be the same when we meet at the company tomorrow."
Zhou Wang smiled.
"Although I am not free, I must not lose my courtesy. Brother, I have arranged for someone to have a casual meal with you. I hope it can add some flavor to your meal..."
Zhang Shihao\'s voice changed and he said with some mysterious meaning.
"Oh?" Zhou Wang was startled, "Second brother means..."
"Hahaha, the so-called expert is of course a beauty!"
Only then did Zhang Shihao laugh and said: "I also asked Zhiyuan specifically about your preferences. You should be satisfied..."
"Uh, second brother, there\'s no need for us to do this, right?"
After Zhou Wang understood it in seconds, he couldn\'t help but smile bitterly.
He was just about to say that he had made an appointment, but Zhang Shihao spoke first:
"Young people are not romantic. Besides, you are also a shareholder of the company, so you should know more about the artists under the company. And at this point, she should be on the way. Brother, just wait in the Sands Hall."
"Can I ask who it is?"
After hearing this, Zhou Wang couldn\'t refuse. After thinking about it, since Zhang Shihao also called Wuyou, an Internet celebrity, he would probably get to know Hua Suishui, so he could only ask instead.
"Brother, you\'ll know it when you see it."
Zhang Shihao gave it away, "This artist has done very little public relations and entertainment, and the track is not showy. You young people prefer something a little more pure. I understand, hahaha... Of course, brother, if you don\'t have If you feel sorry for her, you can let her go."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Wang shook his head. It was said that Uncle Zhang was over fifty years old. Unexpectedly, his behavior was quite fashionable...
But after all, he is in charge of MCN, the number one company in the industry. It is estimated that most of the people he deals with are young people, which is understandable.
Although there are many Wuyou Internet celebrities, Zhou Wang definitely doesn\'t like them all. He is really curious about who Zhang Shihao called.
If we are close, it would be okay to have a meal together.
Of course, if she doesn\'t get along, just like Zhang Shihao said, just let her go.
There is no psychological burden on Zhou Wang.
...
At 7:25 pm, a Mercedes-Benz business nanny car slowly parked at the entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake in Hangzhou.
The car door opened, and under the astonished gazes of some passers-by, the carefully dressed Hua Sui Sui Sui, Endme and Wang Xiao Xiao got out of the back seat of the business car.
Many girls in modern times have a "disease". After suffering from this disease, they cannot go out without makeup.
As big internet celebrities, the three girls are obviously even more seriously ill——
They are quite good. After all, they are indeed beautiful and are not afraid of being exposed to the light. Otherwise, makeup alone is not enough and they may have to wear a mask.
Wang Xiaoxiao, wearing a long white suspender skirt with a looming sexy figure, looked at the time and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was not yet 7:30.
Girls are usually slow to clean up, but Wang Xiaoxiao has been desperately urging Hua Sui Sui Sui Sui and Endme to arrive at the lag time.
"Sui Sui, Xi Xi, have you been to the Four Seasons of West Lake before?"
Wang Xiaoxiao seemed to have adjusted her mentality at this time, or perhaps the company of her two best friends gave her more confidence. She asked with a smile.
"I once stayed in a single room with a courtyard inside. Although it was nice to take pictures, I was bitten by mosquitoes that time... but I never ate in it."
Hua Sui Rui said.
"Then you are in luck today. That friend of yours is pretty awesome, and he was able to book a seat at the Sands Hall."
Wang Xiaoxiao smiled.
"Is this Sands Hotel famous?"
Endme, who has spent less time in Hangzhou, asked curiously.
"Not only is it famous for being four-starred by Forbes, but it is also the only restaurant in Hangzhou to be listed with three black pearls and three diamonds. Hehe, you should also know that Hangzhou has a nickname, right?"
"\'Food Desert\', I know that. It is said that the most popular takeaway in Hangzhou is KFC..."
Hua Sui Sui Rui immediately raised her hand and said with a smile, "One thing to say, there really isn\'t anything delicious in Hangzhou. At least the local restaurants in Hang City that I have eaten at are hard to comment on!"
"So, the Sands Hall in the Four Seasons at West Lake is still so famous in this kind of environment. It can be seen that there are still two hundred brushes. It is said that it is usually hard to find one, so you have to book it well in advance."
Wang Xiaoxiao nodded affirmatively, "I\'ve eaten here once before, and it tastes really good...especially the signature dish of abalone and braised pork. You must try it once."
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry and rush!"
Endme looked at Hua Sui Sui Sui again, "Are you going to find your friend first or..."
"Let me take a look with you first."
Hua Sui Sui Sui thought for a while and said.
Zhou Wang asked her to contact her when she got there. After all, Zhou Wang didn\'t know where he was eating. Hua Sui Sui Sui decided to accompany Wang Xiaoxiao to visit the customer first, and then go to Zhou Wang...
"Thank you, let\'s go."
Wang Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, held the hands of two best friends and walked into the Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake. Under the guidance of the doorman, the three of them came to the Sands Room.
"Hello, we are going to the east wing guest room."
After saying the name of the private room at the door, the waiter led the three of them to the "East Wing Guest Room". When they arrived at the door of the private room, the waiter knocked on the door first.
"Please come in."
Soon, a slightly magnetic male voice came from inside.
"Hey, it sounds like you are young..."
Wang Xiaoxiao was more sensitive to voices, and upon hearing this voice, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Hua Sui Sui Sui looked confused, why did this voice sound familiar...
At this time, the waiter had already opened the private room door for the three of them.
