Seeing the bitter look on his face, Jiang Kan already understood what he meant.
It's just that I want to help him compose a suitable song.
But unfortunately, he really doesn't have a suitable song at this time!
He was about to continue saying something, but Zhang Lingling gave him a look.
He understood it tacitly, so he closed the mouth he had just opened.
After all, it was not appropriate for him to rashly refuse the other party before he could say anything.
Sure enough, after a while, Boss Zhou still muttered:
"So we have been discussing for a long time, and we still plan to ask Brother Jiang for a song, similar to "Cold Rainy Night"... Oh no, no, no matter what type or style of song it is, as long as it is suitable for our band to sing..."
Boss Zhou looked at Jiang Kan with hopeful eyes, and then at Zhang Lingling, looking very helpless.
Originally, if they had always been an unknown underground band, they had only been making music in the small circle of Chengdu all their lives, occasionally singing in bars or hanging out with other underground bands to have fun with friends.
In fact, they can live a happy life.
Because I have never drilled out of a well to see the outside world, I can still live a very comfortable and even unrestrained life in my own small circle.
But Jiang Kan's "Cold Rainy Night" opened such a window for them, allowing them to see how wonderful the outside world is.
It also made them famous instantly. The song became popular in the streets and alleys, and overnight they became the spiritual idols and yearnings of those outdated bands that have been in decline for a long time!
This is a bit overwhelming.
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality, which refers to their state.
They have tasted the glory and honor of breaking into the top ten, but now they are ranked outside the 200th place. How many old musicians and old fans who originally had high hopes for them were disappointed?
Maybe...the era of rock and roll and the era of bands have really passed?
Are they...really just a group of people?
Or is it just that the song "No More Ordinary" is really not good, so it delayed them?
Lao Zhou didn't know.
Lao Zhou couldn't accept it either.
That's why he seemed so distressed and depressed as he was now. He regarded Jiang Kan as the only life-saving straw and clung to it.
"As for money, money is easy to talk about! I will pay 30... no, 500,000! As a separate licensing fee, and I am also willing to divide the money I earn into 10%... no, 20% to you, as long as Brother Jiang... Jiang The teacher is willing, and the price is easy to negotiate. Really, it’s easy to negotiate! Help me, there are so many old brothers and buddies in the circle staring at me now, we can’t afford to lose this person!"
Boss Zhou took Jiang Kan's hand as he spoke, with tears welling up in his eyes.
He really loves music and the band very deeply.
Otherwise, people would not still be using their own money to support a band when they are fifty, investing and giving without any regard for return, just to not wake up from the illusion that the band's era has passed and their years have passed. …
"Old Zhou..."
Jiang Kan is almost the same age. Although he is ten years older, he can still feel the pain and discomfort of Boss Zhou.
Tea is not wine, but it can be intoxicating if you drink too much, especially when you are worried.
Lao Zhou should be a little drunk at this moment.
"Ahem..."
At this time, Zhang Lingling coughed twice, and Jiang Kan looked up at her, intending to see what Xiao Zhang wanted to say.
"Haha, Boss Zhou, we can understand this matter, but Jiang Kan also said that he does not have suitable inventory on hand, and the year is approaching and everyone has been very busy recently, and the company's performance requirements are also very heavy..."
Zhang Lingling's words attracted Boss Zhou's attention. He still held Jiang Kan's hand with both hands, but turned his head to look at him.
"You want a new song, but you are also preparing for February, right? There are still twenty days left..."
"How about this? I'll discuss it with Jiang Kan later. Let's take a look at the inventory on hand and the future schedule, and then give Boss Zhou a reply? Whether it's OK or not, he and I will study it first and then tell you. You Is this okay?"
Zhang Lingling also understood that Jiang Kan really didn't have a suitable song for him, otherwise he wouldn't be so embarrassed.
So she came out at the right time to come to the rescue.
"That's right, hahahaha. I was too excited and lost my temper. I'm really sorry. I'm sorry."
Boss Zhou gradually calmed down, knowing that forcing others to do something difficult would only have the opposite effect, so he hurriedly let go of Jiang Kan's hand that was still being held.
He didn't know what was wrong with him. He was still so easily excited despite his age. Perhaps the recent depressed expressions of his brothers in the band put too much pressure on him. There was also an unwilling fire burning in his heart.
…
It took almost an hour to eat this meal. The quality of the food was very good and Jiang Kan was very satisfied with it.
Seeing Jiang Kan patting his belly with satisfaction, Boss Zhou happily went to pay the bill.
"..."
Jiang Kan looked at Zhang Lingling.
Zhang Lingling gently shook her head at him.
"Ha, Teacher Jiang..."
"Lao Zhou, please don't bully me like this anymore. You are Zhiheng's good friend, and that is my good friend. You call me teacher, teacher. I'm not used to it, and neither are you. You should still call me Brother Jiang. , Brother Jiang can do it.”
Jiang Kan couldn't help but laugh when he saw the slightly troubled expression of the other party. He himself occasionally struggled with what to call the other party, knowing what the other party was thinking. M.biQuge.biZ
"Okay! Brother Jiang is more cheerful. Anyway, I will mention this matter first. If it is appropriate, I will help you. I will be grateful!"
"If it's really inconvenient, let's just pretend it never happened. After all, everything in this world can't be perfect, right? Okay, I won't disturb your work, I'll leave first!"
Lao Zhou might have gone to the bathroom and washed his face with cold water. His face was wet. At this time, he had regained the magnanimity that a bold middle-aged businessman should have.
He waved to the two of them and strode towards the Maybach GLE parked on the street not far away.
…
"Hi, boss Zhou..."
Jiang Kan shook his head with a wry smile and dug his right nose with his fingers, not knowing how to handle it.
"Brother Jiang, you are... Haha, we have gotten along quite well, so I asked directly, do you really have no suitable songs, or do you... don't want to give the songs to such an underground band, for fear of their performance? Ruined your song?”
There was still a little time before going to work, so the two of them simply took a walk on the road to eat.
Zhang Lingling turned around, looked up at Jiang Kan, and asked with a gentle smile on her face.
"There is really no suitable one..."
If it were Jiang Kan from before, he would have answered like this.
But after Liu Zhiheng persuaded him last time, he was still a little more cautious and cautious.
If it is a job work, then there is nothing to say, as long as the task is completed.
But he was actually a little worried about private transactions like this.
It's not that he is narrow-minded and can't see his own songs becoming popular for others.
He is not satisfied with this. There are so many singers in the world who are popularized by songwriters. Speaking of which, all the superstars are popularized by songwriters.
If everyone is so jealous, is it possible to stay in the composing profession?
But he is really worried about how far a grass-roots group like the Dongyu Band can go. With their almost non-existent influence and the singing skills they can see so far, will they really be unable to perform what the system provides? All the energy of those great songs from the earth is a waste of this meaningful gift.
Although the system has not emphasized anything in this regard, Jiang Kan also knows that this guy came to Blue Star with the idea of carrying forward the glory of Earth's songs.
If your performance is not as good as it wants, will it leave you one day?
He didn't dare to gamble on this.
