Chapter 60


    Tom didn''t know what Phoebe was thinking. After lunch, he went to work.


    If he knew, he might blurt out that he was the chairman of ZQ and what he could give her was beyond


    her wildest dreams.


    Now that he was the chairman of ZQ, it would cause much trouble if he rode his electric scooter to work


    again, just like what happenedst time.


    However, he didn''t buy a car, so he had to take a taxi to work. Before he got out of the taxi, the driver


    suddenly asked curiously, "buddy, you work in ZQ?"


    "Yeah, why?" Tom said and nodded.


    "Nothing!" The driver was a young man in his twenties. After pulling over, he turned around and started


    a conversation. "ZQ is really good. It has many popr stars and many of my friends are hellbent on


    getting to work there, but the bar is too high, and none of them can get in."


    After a pause, the driver said with envy, "dude, you must see a lot of stars every day, right? That must


    feel wonderful."


    Tom answered with a wry smile, "not as good as you think. In fact, celebrities are also human. Nothing


    different from us and nothing so wonderful."


    After he acquired ZQ, he kept a low profile and did not have much contact with the stars in the


    bluntly, it was just a profession. What was there to admire?


    Unexpectedly, the driver disagreed and said solemnly, "there''s a huge difference. Stars are high in the


    sky and have so many fans. It''s so hard for ordinary people to see them in the flesh. A while ago, one


    of my friends got an autograph of Forrest and evoked a lot of jealousy. He even hooked up with two


    girls using that autograph. Awesome!"


    Tom was incredulous. He didn''t believe one could use an autograph to hit on girls. That was bizarre.


    "Who''s Forrest?" Tom asked curiously. He was a little embarrassed to ask that. Although he was the


    chairman of the ZQ Media, he knew nothing of the showbiz except for a few big names, let along those


    newly emerged stars.


    The young driver immediately widened his eyes and looked at Tom as a man of a different era. He


    asked in disbelief. "You must be kidding me, bro. You don''t know Forrest? He''s so popr now. Haven''t


    you watched Dreamlike Song? Forrest is the leading actor in it."


    Tom cringed. He really hadn''t watched it.


    "Fine... "The young driver looked speechless." It seems that you really don''t know Forrest. He has


    fallen off his pedestal recently because of a scandal and is not as popr as he was half a year ago.


    He was such a hit at that time."


    The driver would drone on about Forrest if Tom hadn''t stop him helplessly. "Bro, I gotta bete if I don''t


    leave now."


    "Sorry. My bad. I just can''t stop."


    Tom was not interested in Forrest. He was a capitalist now and had plenty of money. In his opinion,


    these stars were just his employees.


    When he reached ZQ Building, no one recognized him as the chairman because he was casually


    dressed.


    As he was about to walk in, a wave of screaming caught him from behind. Many young people rushed


    over. He looked back and saw a white Toyota Alpha parked on the side of the road. Two men in ck


    suits opened the door and a man in white with thick bangs walked out.


    This man was very handsome, and he had a lighterplexion than many women did. He was


    apparently a heartthrob and upon his appearance, women screamed and swarmed about him. In Tom''s


    eyes, they were just like zombies pouncing on flesh.


    "Forrest!"


    "Forrest!"


    "Baby, I love you!"


    "Forrest, I want to give birth to your child..."


    Hearing the name those women were shouting, Tom was taken aback. This feminine man was Forrest


    mentioned by the taxi driver just now?


    He was not as handsome as he was cracked up to be. Tom eyed Forrest up and down and found that


    he got stic surgery.


    He frowned a little because he thought that stars should pay more attention to improve their singing


    and performance instead of caring too much about how they looked.


    However, Tom didn''t despise him or anything. After all, he owned an entertainmentpany and these


    stars were his money spinners.


    What confused him was why Forrest was here, given that he wasn''t signed by ZQ.


    Did hee for cooperation?


    Forrest relished being under the spotlight. He walked inside, beaming with pleasure and waving hands


    to his fans, charming and adoring.


    Seeing that, Tom kind of took a liking to Forrest. However, the second Forrest came into ZQ Building,


    the sunshine on his face disappeared and was reced by impatience. "Grrr. Why are they


    everywhere? Especially those fat pigs. They''re fat and ugly. They make me want to puke my fucking


    guts out! One of them touched me just now. So disgusting."


    The assistant next to him quickly took out a wet tissue to wipe his hands and said respectfully, "just live


    with it. That scandal made you lose many fans, but it doesn''t matter. After you sign the contract with


    ZQ, with the power of ZQ and your gorgeous face, you can definitely be a hit again!"


    Hearing these words, Forrest''s face softened. He wore a smile again, scrubbed a hand through his


    bang. "You bet. With my strength, signing with me will bring ZQ a great fortune." Forrest said


    confidently as he strode in.


    His manager at the side reminded him, "Forrest, y niceter when you meet the senior executives.


    Don''t be as willful as before, okay?"


    Forrest was a little disapproving. "There''s no need. I''m so popr now and ZQ can make a good


    bargain in signing with me. They can''t resist it unless they don''t want money."


    The manager warned him solemnly, "that''s not necessarily true. ZQ has a new chairman now. He''s


    super rich and bought ZQ no long ago. In less than a month, ZQ is in the ascendant under his charge.


    After this chairman took over, ZQ is no longer the same ZQ it used to be. Its market value keeps rising,


    and many artists want to sign with it, so ZQ might not be willing to sign with you."


    "Besides, in your current situation, fewpanies will deem it profitable to sign with you." The


    manager finally said meaningfully.


    Forrest fell silent, looking bitter. Yes, he was still famous but in fact, there were fewpanies willing to


    sign with him at a high price. Among them, ZQ was the most powerful one, and it was also his best


    choice! He must sign the contract with ZQ today, otherwise, his career might end here.

    Thinking of this, he threw the wet tissue away fretfully which hit directly on Tom.
