How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

Chapter 274 - 137: Go to Peking University to Study and Improve?

Reception room.

A girl with long, wavy hair, wearing a goose-yellow dress and a cute hairpin, sat calmly on the sofa...

Although the dress was loose-fitting, it could not conceal her proud figure, sketching a tantalizing curve...

A middle-aged woman in a small suit softly spoke in Korean to her, "Jisoo, I won’t say much, just accompany this rich businessman from Hua Country for three days, and you’ll get 90 million Korean Won.

Your contract termination fee is 2 billion Won. As long as the company gets back these 2 billion, you’ll be free. Then whether you want to be a freelance singer or switch to another company, you can."

Hearing this, Kim Jisoo’s delicate face remained calm as if the agent’s words had no effect on her...

But from her blue nail polish, nearly scraped off by herself, it was clear her heart was not as calm as she appeared...

"Can’t I just do commercial performances to earn money for the company? If one is not enough, I’ll take on ten, no matter if they’re expensive or cheap, I can do them all! I used to work over 10 hours a day, now I can work fifteen! Even twenty hours are fine!"

At Jisoo’s words, the middle-aged woman showed a disdainful smile.

"Commercial performances? If they could make money for the company, why would we send you to Hua Country?

There are over 100,000 artists in Korea, with new girl groups debuting every day. The competition is too fierce. I admit that when the ALICE girl group debuted, they had some fame and made money for the company, but that was in the past.

We thought that ALICE might still have a market in Hua Country, earning a sum before disbanding. But since our arrival in Yangcheng City almost a month ago, we’ve only got one commercial performance, and the price was just 80,000 RMB, which is 15 million Korean Won. Divided between seven members, how many years do you think it will take to earn enough to pay the 2 billion Won termination fee at this rate?

If you can’t pay the termination fee, you’ll still need to stay with the company for another 11 years. Are you sure you can endure another 11 years?"@@@@

As the door opened, Li Changrui stood at the entrance, respectfully stretching out his right hand as he said, "Mr. Gu, please come in; the company you requested is waiting inside."

Gu Heng didn’t hesitate and stepped right in.

Jisoo’s anxious gaze met with Gu Heng’s directly.

But upon seeing Gu Heng’s face, the majority of her nervousness instantly dissipated... Stay tuned for updates on novelhall.Côm

Before Gu Heng’s arrival, Jisoo had prepared for the worst. Even if it was a middle-aged, fat, bald man, she would have brainwashed herself to submit...

The fear of financial conglomerates is ingrained in Korean artists from birth...

Every year, many cases of well-known Korean artists committing suicide are reported, and almost every case is related to financial conglomerates...

Even famous artists can’t escape this fate, let alone ordinary artists. Not to mention the distant past, just from what Jisoo knew, there were no less than 10 artists who chose to end their lives after being tormented by financial conglomerates, and the outside world knew nothing...

Rather than follow the doomed path of her predecessors, it would be better to endure some hardship in Hua Country for a while, earn enough to pay off the termination fee, return to freedom, and then pursue a career as a freelance singer...

Her agent was right; comparatively speaking, the reputation of Hua Country’s rich businessmen was good worldwide...

More so, Gu Heng in front of her, although not exceptionally handsome, definitely had distinct features and looked refined. Additionally, the fact that he was willing to pay 90 million Won for her company for three days also proved Gu Heng’s wealth...

This kind of young and wealthy second-generation heir, even if she had to take him as her boyfriend, she would be willing...

Thinking this way, Jisoo’s mindset improved significantly...

And as Gu Heng looked at Jisoo’s current appearance, he felt a spark of brightness before his eyes...
