After five tastes of food, three rounds of wine. Everyone happily ate barbecue and chatted happily.
Suddenly, a shout came from far and near, and Chen Mo vaguely heard someone calling his name.
"Chen Mo, I've found you!" A middle-aged man wearing a casual suit and black-rimmed glasses looked at Chen Mo with excitement.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Chen Mo asked with some confusion. He did not recognize the man in front of him.
The middle-aged man immediately took out a business card from his pocket, handed it to Chen Mo with both hands, and said. "My name is Wei Yan. I am the artist development manager of Tianyu Media. I was present throughout the campus competition just now. I like your songs very much. Moreover, I think you also participated in the songs of the classmate next to you. It's exactly the style of your folk songs." As he said this, he turned to look at Song Yang beside him.
Although Wei Yan is not a big shot in the music industry, as a media company manager, he also has a certain status in the music industry. He came to Huayin to discover future music talents in advance, and then sign them to the company for training. He felt that Chen Mo was a musical talent, so he paid special attention to Chen Mo.
He felt that with Chen Mo's outstanding performance, not only was he very optimistic about Chen Mo, but there must also be people from the company or other music circles who were paying close attention to Chen Mo. But most people hope to wait for Chen Mo to release a few more new songs. After all, it is not easy to create a genre. If Chen Mo really creates a few more ballads, then they will believe that Chen Mo will not be a flash in the pan.
Wei Yan is still very courageous. He doesn't want to wait. He is willing to take risks. He has a good relationship with Chen Mo in advance and signs Chen Mo before others. He has already had someone send it from the company since the end of the game. A contract.
Originally, he was going to have a dinner with the school leaders of Shoudai University, but he made an excuse and secretly left early, and then he inquired all the way to find Chen Mo.
Chen Mo took the business card with both hands, glanced at it, stood up and said, "Manager Wei, please sit down."
Chen Mo politely offered him his seat, then found another chair from the side and sat down, saying: "Manager Wei, we are all students, and we are really hungry. We have a simple meal. If you don't mind, you can sit down." Come down and eat something together.”
Wei Yan was a little surprised. As a manager of a media company, he had not eaten barbecue at a roadside stall for a long time. He felt that Chen Mo was a little different from others. If it were someone else, he would know that he was from a media company. When the manager came to see him, he was very happy. He didn't expect Chen Mo to be so calm, and he would even invite him to have barbecue together at a street stall.
"Hahaha, don't mind. I happen to be a little hungry too. I secretly made an excuse to sneak away from the school dinner." Wei Yan once again pretended to inadvertently express his sincerity in coming to see Chen Mo.
With that said, he picked up the barbecue on the table and started eating.
"Song Yang, go and order some more dishes, and then bring some beer." While talking to Song Yang next to him, Chen Mo also greeted Manager Wei who was sitting down, acting very generous and natural, like It was as if the two had known each other for a long time.
"Chen Mo, I actually have something to ask you, so I will tell you directly." As Wei Yan spoke, he took out a contract from his briefcase, placed it on the table, and continued, "Chen Mo, this is our Tianyu Media The contract I want to sign with you is equivalent to a fourth-level contract for a 5-10 level star. It directly skips the internship contract for newcomers. The main reason is to be optimistic about your new style of music and to be optimistic about you as a person. You have not yet joined other companies and big bosses. Before talking to you, this represents the sincerity of our company.
Several people on the side were shocked. Ever since Wei Yan came here, they had roughly guessed the purpose of Manager Wei's coming, and they had been paying attention silently. While I was happy for Chen Mo, I was also a little envious.
Chen Mo took the contract, glanced at it a few times, and said with a frown: "Manager Wei, the lights are a little dark and I can't see clearly. Can I take it back and read it again? I'll give you an answer in a few days, okay?"
Wei Yan was stunned for a moment, glanced at the source of the light that was indeed not bright, and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for your call, as soon as possible."
"Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible." Chen Mo said with a smile.
"Chen Mo, please remember my phone number. If you make a decision, please inform me anytime. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Manager Wei left a mobile phone number for Chen Mo and then casually found an excuse to leave.
When Manager Wei got up and was about to leave, he looked at the people around him and left a few business cards. He said, "Students, these are my business cards. You all have a good image. You are welcome to come at any time." Our company." After a few polite words, Manager Wei left happily.
Being able to talk to Chen Mo for so long, although I didn't get a definite answer, was satisfying enough.
As soon as Manager Cai left, Song Yang came over with a box of wine and looked at Chen Mo and the others in confusion, "What's going on? Why are you leaving and not eating?"
"Now that we've finished talking, let's go first!" Chen Mo replied with a smile.
"No, he just paid for our late night snack tonight and gave us hundreds more. He told the boss that we can continue to order whatever we want, and the boss agreed. It was really open-minded." Song Yang haha said with a laugh.
"Haha, it's really open." Chen Mo said with a smile. It felt good to be taken seriously. Looking in the direction of the boss, he saw someone coming over from the corner of his eye, so he called Song Yang and said, "Song Yang, go order some new dishes. Someone else will come over later."
"Okay!" Song Yang followed Chen Mo's gaze and stood up in a hurry.
Went to order food.
“…”
Ma Yinyin, Xu Shuai and others were speechless for a while, but they saw a professional OL female manager wearing black stockings and a white shirt walking over. It seemed that she should have been at the campus competition just now.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the rankings in the campus competition are very controversial. At least they know that the judges and teachers’ ratings of Chen Mo are not very fair. A pioneer of a new music style, an original singer who moved everyone to tears, did not make the top three. There is a lot of moisture in it. Very big. Therefore, many people secretly came out after the campus competition to look for Chen Mo, a potential player.
The female manager searched everywhere with her eyes as she walked. When she saw Chen Mo and the others sitting next to them, her eyes lit up and she walked over. Her goal was clear.
Chen Mo and others pretended not to notice, and were still eating late night snacks, talking quietly, drinking wine, and chatting.
"Hello, are you Chen Mo?" The woman walked to Chen Mo's table and asked politely. She kept looking at Chen Mo, waiting expectantly for Chen Mo's answer.
Chen Mo stood up and looked at her pretending to be confused.
She immediately continued: "I am Liu Fei, the director of the artist development department of Cool Cat Music. It's like this. I was also in the campus competition just now. I like your folk songs very much, so..."
"Hello, Manager Liu, please sit down first. We just ordered a lot, and there are still many that haven't been served. Let's chat while eating." Chen Mo shook her hand gently and invited her to sit down.
He Shan had the foresight to help get the tableware and move the chair so that she could sit next to Chen Mo.
Liu Fei took her seat a little embarrassed. She just came out of the school dinner invitation without eating much. When she saw the barbecue, she really wanted to eat, but out of a woman's reserve, she did not move after sitting down. Chopsticks.
Chen Mo noticed that she was a little reserved, so he took the initiative to find a topic and said, "Manager Liu, let me introduce you to my good friends." While talking, he took some skewers in the middle of the table and pretended to put them casually. into the empty plate in front of Liu Fei.
Then he continued, "Manager Liu, while you eat, I will introduce you."
Pointing to Xu Shuai beside him, he said, "This is our senior, the very powerful host Xu Shuai. He was the host of the campus competition just now."
Then he continued to introduce, "This beauty is our school beauty Ma Yinyin. She was the female host just now. She also sang very well. However, she did not participate in this competition because she has graduated. She came back as the host. .”
"The person holding the phone all the time is my school girl, Xia Xiaoxiao, who is currently a Douyin anchor."
"And the girl next to me is my good friend He Shan, and the little fat guy is Song Yang, who sang An Heqiao just now. In the future, I will bring them two to sing my folk songs together. .”
Liu Fei did not interrupt him, but looked at everyone he introduced. This was her respect for Chen Mo. It is true that the people at this table are all very nice, and their images are quite distinctive, especially Ma Yinyin. As the school beauty, she really does not get the title for nothing. As a woman, she is a little jealous.
"Why don't you introduce yourself?" Liu Fei asked happily while eating.
"Me, I don't have much to introduce, but I like singing folk songs and writing folk songs. I hope you will pay more attention to me in the future and like my folk songs more." Chen Mo said sincerely.
"Actually, you should also know the purpose of my visit." While speaking, he saw the unpacked document bag placed beside Chen Mo's desk from the corner of his eye, and could vaguely see the words "Tianyu Media" and "Contract".
"I won't be too late, right?" There was something wrong in her heart!
"Manager Liu is very observant. Yes, this is the contract that Manager Wei from Tianyu Media just gave me. However, I promised him to consider it and haven't signed the contract yet, so everyone still has the opportunity." Chen Mo Said.
"Oh, that's great, fair competition is king!" Liu Fei kept looking at the documents, silently thinking about what level the contract Tianyu would give her. But out of professionalism, he couldn't ask yet. After all, the agreement was confidential.
She ignored it, looked away, took out her contract from the bag beside her, and handed it to Chen Mo. "Chen Mo, this is our company's contract, because time is too hasty. This contract is a fifth-level contract, corresponding to the contract of 1-5 star stars. Because you are a newcomer and you are not famous yet, but I believe that as you As your reputation increases little by little, the company will definitely upgrade you. I hope you can come to my company, and the company will focus on training you next."
Ma Yinyin, Xu Shuai, Xia Xiaoxiao and others did not speak, just thinking that she was level five and Tianyu was level four. Different levels must have different treatment. Chen Mo would definitely not choose Cool Cat.
Chen Mo raised the corner of his mouth, took the contract, opened it, looked at it, held it up to the light source, and said: "I still can't see clearly, the light is not very good, so let me take it back and look at it later." Okay, how about I give you an answer?"
Liu Fei was silent for a while, took a sip of her drink, and asked, "Did Tianyu give me a higher agreement than mine?"
Chen Mo didn't speak, expressing his acquiescence, and the people next to him didn't speak either, only jealous.
"Let's do this. I take back this contract. We are willing to give a better contract than Tianyu. This is my verbal agreement. I will ask the company later, do you think it is okay?" She did not know the specific amount of Tianyu's offer. level contract, but she still boldly promised.
Such a musical prodigy cannot fall into the hands of others and the agreement must be changed quickly.
Chen Mo still didn't speak, just pretending to read the contract content quietly.
"Did Tianyu give me a third-level contract?" Liu Fei looked a little ugly. The star level corresponding to the third level has reached level 10-15. As a newcomer, Chen Mo obviously has not reached that level.
"I'm really sorry Chen Mo, my ability can only help you apply for a fourth-level contract. Can you think about it again? I hope you can see my sincerity." Liu Fei added.
"Thank you very much for the invitation, Manager Liu. I will consider it carefully. I need to think about it for a few days. After all, you are not the first one to invite me. The so-called shopping around, right? You should understand!" Chen Mo apologized Having said that, if people invite you, they think highly of you and think you have the potential to become popular. Of course Chen Mo will be grateful to these people.
"Understood, this is my business card. Please give me a call before you decide to sign the contract. I will fight for greater benefits for you, okay?" Liu Fei knew that her chances of winning were slim, so she took out her business card. I sent one to all my friends.
She knew that Kumao was slightly weaker than Tianyu Media, but she still wanted to fight for it.
Liu Fei left. Before leaving, she took out a wad of cash from her bag and gave it to the boss. She whispered a few words and left.
After a while, the boss came to Chen Mo's table with a wad of cash and said, "Someone has just settled the accounts for you and saved a lot of money. This lady just left so much money. Put it away."
Chen Mo's expressions were a little strange, and several people were scrambling to settle accounts while having a barbecue. After chatting with the boss for a few words, we continued eating barbecue and chatting while drinking wine.
