"What did you say?!" Li Ming's face darkened as he said, "Xiao-Xiao, don't you forget who raised you. Without a company, is the current you? Do you know how much the company has invested in you? Do you really think that just because you got the second place that you are so strong? Wasn't it the company that was behind this? "You actually …"

Bang bang bang …

Before Li Ming could finish, someone knocked on the office door.

"What is it?" Li Ming asked in annoyance.

"Boss Li, Xu Taiping is here." The person at the door said.

"What Xu Taiping? I don't know him. Let him … "Wait, wait, is that that Xu Taiping?" Li Ming shouted excitedly.

"Yes, that Xu Taiping." The person at the door said.

"Hurry up and let Boss Xu in! No, I'll go welcome him!" As Li Ming spoke, he ran to the door and opened it.

The moment the door opened, Li Ming saw Xu Taiping outside.

Xu Taiping had two people behind him. One of them had a cold expression, the other was dressed in an old-fashioned suit, and his hands were holding something wrapped in grey cloth.

"Boss Xu! Boss Xu!" Li Ming slightly bent his body and extended his hands out with a face full of smiles.

"Director Li." Xu Taiping smiled as he held Li Ming's hand, then said, "I've heard a lot about you."

Li Ming was completely confused by Xu Taiping's words. He was wondering when he, the boss of a third-rate brokerage company, would get such a big name. Other than some unspoken rules, his name would be useless to those students who had just entered art school, right? Could it be that Xu Taiping had already been secretly observing him? Did he know that he was actually a business prodigy?

"I have long heard of Boss Xu's great fame. The achievements of Boss Xu have really made me admire you from obscurity to the richest man in China to Asia. It has only been a year or two, and the hardest thing is, you've gone from the richest man in Asia to the richest man in Asia, and then back to the richest man in Asia. And yet, it has only been a few months." Li Ming flattered for a while.

Xu Taiping felt comfortable being flattered by Li Ming's flattery, "Boss Li, can I come into your office?"

"Ai, look, I forgot about this matter. President Xu, please come in!" As Li Ming spoke, he turned around and led Xu Taiping into the office.

"Why are you still sitting there foolishly? Boss Xu is here! " Li Ming glared at Xu Xiaoxiao as he spoke.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly stood up, bowing to Xu Taiping, "Boss Xu."

"Xu Xiaoxiao, is it? I saw your performance last night. Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"Thank you for your praise, Boss Xu." Xu Xiaoxiao said in fear.

"Director Xu, sit!" Li Ming said.

Xu Taiping nodded and sat on the sofa. Li Ming also quickly sat on the sofa and said to Xu Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, make some tea."

"Make tea?" Xu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then said, "Director Li, why don't I call your declaration in?"

"What do I need him for? You make tea. Can't you? " Li Ming asked.

"I …" Xu Xiaoxiao wanted to say that she wasn't here to make tea, but thinking that Li Ming was her boss, she could only swallow her words. She tidied up the things on the table, then started to make tea.

"Director Li, this time, I came because I have something I want to ask of you. I like to be straightforward, so I'm rather direct." Xu Taiping said.

"Boss Xu, please feel free to speak! "If I, Li, am able to help, I will definitely take responsibility!" Li Ming thumped his chest with an expression as if he was a soldier who would die for his friend.

"Alright, as I've said, my main purpose for coming here this time is to sign on with Xu Xiaoxiao." Xu Taiping said.

"Sign in with Xu Xiaoxiao?" Li Ming was shocked. He thought Xu Taiping wanted to ask for his help, but he didn't expect it to be Xiaoxiao.

Xu Xiaoxiao, who was making the tea, was also shocked when she heard this. She looked at Xu Taiping in astonishment, only to discover that he was looking at her with a smile on his face.

Xu Xiaoxiao lowered her head, blushing.

"Yes, I want to sign on with Xu Xiaoxiao!" Xu Taiping nodded.

"Boss Xu, I don't really understand!" Li Ming asked doubtfully, "As far as I know, the number one idol student this time, popular Wang Jinyan belongs to your company, right?"

"Yes." Xu Taiping nodded.

"Since it belongs to your company, why did you sign it?" Don't you know how easy it is to cause the types of artists to repeat themselves? Furthermore, if you sign for the same talent show and get second place, it will not be a good thing for the first place! " Li Ming said.

"You will soon know why I signed Xu Xiaoxiao … By the way, can you please turn on the TV? " Xu Taiping said.

"Turn on TV?!" Li Ming was stunned for a moment, then he turned on the TV in his office using the remote control.

"Click on the entertainment channel." Xu Taiping said.

"Entertainment Channel?" Li Ming changed the channel to an entertainment channel in confusion.

There was some entertainment news going on in the entertainment channel.

"What's wrong? Director Xu! " Li Ming asked.

"I'll have to take a look for a while. It should be ready soon." Xu Taiping said.

"I think there will be one soon?" Li Ming was completely confused by Xu Taiping's words, but he still watched TV seriously.

About five minutes later.

Suddenly, a heavyweight piece of news was broadcasted by the television station.

"Heavy news! A shocking dark cloud appeared on the night of the idol's practice. The champion Jin Xiyan has revealed that she has met with Xu Taiping's unwritten rule. At the same time, the voting officials for the night of the bird's nest have also announced that the voting figures have been prepared ahead of time!" The champion had already been decided! Next, let us immediately contact the hidden champion of our idol students, Jin Xi Yan! "

The screen of the television station changed and it turned into a hotel.

A few reporters faced Jin Xiyan.

On the screen, Jin Xiyan was crying.

"I... It's really hard for me to get past that hurdle in my heart... "I came here as a champion unfairly. I want to apologize to everyone who supports me. I've disappointed all of you. I can't take this championship. He belongs to someone else …" Jin Xiyan said to the camera.

"Please reconstruct the whole story for us!" The reporter said.

"It's like this. Just the day before yesterday, before the finals began, Xu Taiping, my idol's trainee investor and my boss, found me and told me to go to his room. At the beginning, I thought we were going to talk about things, but I didn't expect that Xu Taiping actually wanted me to follow the rules. He was my boss, my benefactor, and the temptation of the championship. In the end, I was unable to resist him, I was subjected to his unwritten rules, I stayed in his room for more than an hour, and finally, in order to hide from others, he called over the producers in the inner circle to talk to me about something. Yesterday, I got the championship I wanted, I heard that the backstage directly changed the voting numbers, but, getting the championship, I couldn't sleep all night, because the championship was not really based on my strength. I thought about it for one night, and in the end, I decided to expose this matter, I can't let the hidden rules run rampant in the entertainment circle! " Jin Xiyan said tearfully.

"Is that really the case? Is there really a conspiracy? " the reporter asked.

"Yes, that is the truth... I don't have to lie about my future. I've won the championship and I'm the biggest winner. Why would I stand up and ruin my own future? "I know that once I tell you this, my future will be over. However, I still have to say it, otherwise, I won't be able to rest in peace for the rest of my life!" Jin Xiyan said.

As Jin Xiyan retorted, the camera turned back to the host.

"This is the latest news we received from Jin Xiyan. We will continue to pay attention to this matter. Everyone, please pay attention to this station!" The entertainment channel's host said.

Li Ming looked at the television in shock, then looked at Xu Taiping before asking, "Boss Xu, w-what's going on here?!"

"Now do you understand why I signed Xu Xiaoxiao?" Because Jin Xi Yan has already betrayed me. " Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"Betrayed you? "Why?" As an industry veteran, Li Ming actually knew the unspoken rules of the talent show, so he was not surprised by his idol's underhanded actions. He was surprised that Jin Xiyan had exposed Xu Taiping, and judging from his appearance, he already knew about it in advance.

"Perhaps it's for money, perhaps it's for benefits. However, no matter what, he has betrayed me, so we also plan to give up on him and choose someone else to nurture him. As for Xu Xiaoxiao, she is a very good candidate." Xu Taiping said with a smile.

"I, I don't accept unwritten rules!" Xu Xiaoxiao shook his head.

"Don't talk!" Li Ming stared at Xu Xiaoxiao, then turned to look at Xu Taiping with a smile, "Boss Xu, giving you Xiaoxiao might not be impossible, but you've seen it. What Jin Xiyan said, the one who actually got the first place was actually the champion, and now this matter has been exposed.

"Do you think what Jin Xi Yan said is true?" Xu Taiping asked with a smile.

"Oh? Isn't it? Didn't you all directly change the votes? " Li Ming asked.

"Keep watching the news." Xu Taiping pointed at the TV screen and said.

Li Ming looked at the television, and at this time, the host on the television said, "Latest news, we have contacted a backstage counting staff on the night of the Bird's Nest for idol students. He has the latest news and wants to divulge it to us. Watching the latest live broadcast from the front-line reporters! "

Following the host's words, the television screen turned and a middle-aged man appeared before it.
