nBell could tell that Hanks had come today to sign a long-term contract with him.

nMoreover, this was a decision made by the higher-ups behind the platform.

nClearly, because of Bell’s current popularity, the three months of signing the contract made the higher-ups on the platform very uneasy.

nThis contract was not binding at all.

nIt had to be known that other platforms’ streamers had to sign a contract for at least an entire year.

nBut Bell did not think so.

nThe other platforms’ streamers had signed long contracts because their number of fans was basically fixed.

nBut he still had a lot of potential.

nBell realized that wilderness survival programs in this world were especially popular.

nNow, his fan base had already increased to 20 million after just one round.

nHe still had many areas to explore. He would not encounter any bottlenecks before reaching 100 million followers.

nHis fan count was increasing every day.

nBecause of this, Bell felt that a three-month contract was the most reasonable.

n“Mr. Bell, I’m sorry, I can’t decide this matter.”

nSeeing that Bell was silent, Hanks felt the atmosphere becoming awkward and wanted to explain.

nBut before he could finish, Bell interrupted him.

nBell waved his hand.

n“There’s no need to say anything. I understand. This is not something you can decide. Forgive me for not being able to accept this new contract. My bottom line is a three-month signing period. This cannot be changed.”

n“How about this? Take this contract with you and return. We’ll follow our previous contract.”

n“We can talk about it when that contract expires.”

nBell stood up and handed the contract to Hanks.

nBell looked calm, not at all angry at the company’s higher-ups for going back on their word.

nHanks was ashamed and angry.

nHe was not angry at Bell, but he felt that the higher-ups in the company were too stupid.

nA group of useless people who only knew how to enjoy life when they had shares.

nIt was one thing to have fun normally, but now, they were even meddling in the company’s affairs.

nThe company had already roped in Bell.

nThose idiots had to cause trouble at this moment. Great, they had forced Bell to leave.

nThat’s right, this was the same as forcing Bell to leave.

nHanks had a feeling.

nFrom Bell’s expression, he could tell that Bell had already decided to change companies.

nHe sighed.

nIt was not because of Bell. After all, Bell did not have to worry about his next step.

nWith Bell’s current popularity, it would be easy to find a platform. The treatment would only be better and not worse.

nHanks was worried about himself.

nHe had wanted to follow Bell and work peacefully for a few years, so that he could live a carefree life.

nBut now, because of a group of idiots, his wish was probably going to fail.

nSuch a good opportunity had been missed.

nHow many times could a person have such an opportunity in their life?

nHanks was indignant.

n‘Sigh, if only Mr. Bell could set up his own company.’

nAn idea suddenly occurred to Hanks, and he was shocked.

n‘Yeah, if Mr. Bell establishes his own company, I can go over and continue to be his manager.’

n‘If the company’s prospects are good in the future, I will be a senior of the company.’

nHanks was excited, but he quickly gave up on the idea.

nIt was not easy to set up a company. It was difficult for a new company to make waves as it would suffer the suppression of other major platforms.

nEspecially if someone who could influence so many people like Bell made a company, the industry would do its best to suppress it and not allow it to make a name for itself.

nThis was like the relationship between a shepherd and sheep.

nAt first, everything was fine. The shepherds would cut the grass and feed the sheep, then slaughter the sheep to eat the meat. Everything was so harmonious.

nBut if the sheep realized that they could eat grass by themselves and eat more, who would be willing to stay in the sheep pen?

nOver time, shepherds without sheep would starve to death.

nTherefore, once they noticed this trend, the people in the industry would work together to suppress it.

nThis was an unwritten rule.

nOnly if there was someone backing you up, could you go from being a sheep to a shepherd.

nOtherwise, they would have to face the entire industry.

nWith this in mind, Hanks stopped hoping.

nHe stood up and took the contract from Bell.

n“Mr. Bell, I’m glad to see you again. If there’s a chance, I’m willing to be your manager. I wish you success in the recording of the show.”

nHanks said sincerely, like he was saying goodbye.

nBell smiled.

n“There might be a chance.”

nThen, the two of them left the hotel.

nBell shook his head and stopped paying attention.

n“It seems like I have to find a way to go to other platforms after this three month contract expires.”

nAlthough Bell was not short of money, he needed videos to maintain his popularity.

nWilderness Survival had a time limit after all.

nBang bang bang!

nJust as Bell was thinking about how to plan his route, someone knocked on the door again.

nBell froze, thinking that it was Hanks who had returned.

nHowever, when he opened the door, Bell saw that Keira Knightley had already gotten out of bed. She was the one who had knocked.

n“Good morning.”

nBell smiled and greeted her before letting her in.

nKeira did not stand on ceremony. She entered the room and sat down. She even picked up the breakfast that Bell had ordered.

nThe actions were so natural that Bell had the illusion that this seemed to be Keira’s room instead.

n“Good morning, I’m starving. I only drank with the girls yesterday and didn’t eat much.”

nAfter eating a slice of bread, Keira heaved a sigh of relief.

nBell shrugged.

n“If you like, you can eat them all.”

n“I will ask the hotel to bring more.”

nHowever, after eating a piece of bread, Keira Knightley stopped.

nShe composed herself and said, “I’m sorry, Bell. I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but I heard some of what you said to that person.”

n“I wanted to ask you if you’re interested in setting up your own company.”

n“You don’t have to worry about the operation problem. I have a way to resolve it.

nJust do what you did before. ”
