Cheng Yu has been immersed in the entertainment industry for many years, and he knows very well how dirty and dirty this circle is hidden under the glamorous appearance. He himself was even one of the beneficiaries of this "dirty".
For example, in the years when Cheng Yu first debuted, the reason why he became popular so quickly was because of the company's operation and his ability to step on top of a king.
That Heavenly King has been silent for many years now, and the public has almost forgotten who that person is, and Cheng Yu's current situation is similar to that of the Heavenly King back then.
It is precisely because he has such an experience that Cheng Yu can't help but start to think about that - it's not his fault, after all, he is now in jail, and Qin Luo's appearance has brought him too much trouble. Sense of crisis.
Qin Luo saw Cheng Yu's emotional changes clearly from the side. He didn't know why Cheng Yu could make up such a ridiculous move after their first meeting, but he knew that this was all done intentionally by Cao Kun.
Sure enough, Cao Kun quickly stopped his smile, sighed helplessly and said: "Cheng Yu, the company has been kind to you in cultivating and educating you. I can understand your current mood, but I didn't expect that you would actually This kind of thinking... Not to mention that the company has no such plan at all, even if it does, can't you think of the company and dedicate your last strength? "
"The last strength? Ha, that's nice to say. I think you want to squeeze out the last remaining value from me," Cheng Yu sneered, and then said forcefully: "Anyway, my contract is about to expire, so this If it doesn’t work out, then at worst I will be kept in the cold for a while, and then I will directly announce my withdrawal from the industry, saying that I won’t use my accumulated experience over the years to make a wedding dress for this kid!”
After saying that, he glared at Qin Luo fiercely again, and even pretended to leave.
At this time, Cao Kun suddenly raised his hands and clapped, and laughed and said: "Well said, well said, Lao Cheng, I have watched you develop over the years, and it turns out that I really didn't. Wrong person.”
Cheng Yu was stunned by his sudden operation. When he was about to leave, he paused and asked in a daze, "What did you say?"
Cao Kun smiled slightly, turned to Qin Luo, and said cheerfully: "Formal introduction, this is Teacher Qin Luoqin, a young and promising talented musician, and a partner of our company... By the way, Teacher Qin is not an artist in our company. Although we are very optimistic about Teacher Qin’s development potential, unfortunately, Teacher Qin’s ambition is not here.”
After speaking, Cao Kun glanced at Qin Luo with a smile. The latter finally couldn't help but rolled his eyes at him, then walked up to Cheng Yu, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "Hello, Teacher Cheng, my name is Qin Luo. This time I was entrusted by Manager Cao to help you write a song."
"You... you are not a newly signed artist from our company?" Cheng Yu was caught off guard by this unexpected development. He even forgot to shake Qin Luo's hand. After asking, he said with a puzzled face: "And ...Qin Luo...this name seems a bit familiar..."
Xu Lu held it in for a long time. Seeing that Manager Cao's play had finished, she finally said: "I just wrote "Bubble" for Teacher Shen Fang, and sang "The Queen of Heaven" at the anniversary party of Shanghai University of Magic. "That teacher Qin Luo, I mentioned it to you several times before, have you forgotten?"
"Ah this..."
Cheng Yu's eyes slowly widened, his expression looking a little stunned.
During this period, several of Qin Luo's songs became popular all over the Internet. Shen Fang returned to the throne of a first-line singer with the song "Bubble". The song "Queen" sung by Qin Luo even aroused heated discussions on the Internet, even if it was A popular song "Learning to Meow" has attracted countless people to cover it.
For such a little-known wild musician, people in the music circle are naturally very curious. Xu Lu said before that many people want to ask Qin Luo to sing, and of course Cheng Yu is included among them.
Because when Xu Lu showed Cheng Yu the video of Qin Luo singing "The Queen", Cheng Yu was convinced of Qin Luo's ability, but he paid more attention to the song than the singer at the time, so even though in the video I have met Qin Luo, but I didn't recognize Qin Luo immediately when I saw him.
Now when Xu Lu said this, the young singer in his mind immediately overlapped with the man in front of him.
For a moment, the shock on Cheng Yu's face turned into surprise. He held Qin Luo's hand and said hurriedly: "Teacher Qin, I didn't expect it to be you. Those songs you wrote are so good... ...What about that? I wonder if you have time to help me write a song? As long as the quality is no worse than "Bubble" and "Queen of Heaven" and it fits the theme of the Three Kingdoms and love, the price is whatever you want!"
This guy is obviously very fond of Qin Luo, or maybe the current situation has accumulated so much sense of crisis in his heart that he even uses "you" to a man who is more than ten or twenty years younger than him. title.
Qin Luo saw his performance, but couldn't help but glance at Cao Kun.
After all, in his opinion, if Cao Kun had revealed Qin Luo's identity and intention when he came in just now, although Cheng Yu would be happy, he would certainly not be as excited as he is now.
It was also thanks to Cao Kun's skillful manipulation that Cheng Yu showed such an eager look like a desperate man grasping for life-saving straws.
Tsk, tsk, tsk, these people who are playing tricks are so heartbroken... Qin Luo smacked his lips secretly, and said with a smile on his face: "Mr. Cheng, don't get excited yet. Didn't Manager Cao just say that I'm from your company?" Partner."
Cheng Yu was slightly startled when he heard this, and then said in surprise: "Then Manager Cao brought you here specifically to write songs for me?"
"Yes," Qin Luo nodded.
When Cheng Yu saw this, his anxiety was instantly wiped away, and a visible surprise appeared on his face. When the sense of crisis faded, he realized many things at once.
So Cheng Yu looked at Cao Kun and said with a helpless expression: "Manager Cao, since you have already asked Teacher Qin to help write songs, why did you do this just now? This is the first time I met Teacher Qin. This misunderstanding has made me very embarrassed now."
Cao Kun laughed when he heard this: "I blame me. There have been too many rumors recently. It is said that Longmen Entertainment has reached an agreement with you and is thinking of signing you after your contract here expires. I also value you too much." , so I feel a little unsure...but not anymore. After listening to what you just said, I know that I judged a gentleman with a villain's heart. I will do it later and apologize to you in person. !”
Cao Kun apologized, but his attitude did not appear to be submissive. He even revealed a lot of information in his words.
After hearing this, Xu Lu glanced at Cheng Yu in surprise, while Cheng Yu's expression changed for a while, and then he shook his head with a wry smile: "Manager Cao has great magical powers. Someone from Longmen has indeed contacted me. But I didn’t agree, after all, I know my current situation very well.”
"Although you can work for a few more years after signing, but if there is no good opportunity, then it is inevitable to go downhill all the way. Rather than losing your little popularity like this, it is better to withdraw from the circle in a cool way. I can still have the same good reputation as Sister Fang back then."
"If this is really the case, maybe when I encounter the right opportunity in the future, I can make a comeback, and even achieve better development than before..."
When he said this, he didn't say any more, but took a deep look at Qin Luo.
Everyone present understood what he meant - Shen Fang was able to make a smooth comeback, and of course his own background and strength were beyond doubt, but the more important thing was Qin Luo.
She sang two songs by Qin Luo, one of which was "You Are April in the World", which successfully gained her a certain degree of attention in the public eye, and then the song "Bubble" at the Shanghai University celebration party was even more popular. It pushed her popularity to the top.
It can be said that if it were not for these two songs by Qin Luo, although Shen Fang's comeback would still not have any problems, it would probably not have the same effect as it does now. So if I insist on saying it, Qin Luo should be regarded as her. It's not impossible for noble people to do it.
The final meaning that Cheng Yu wanted to express with these words was that he had regarded Qin Luo as this noble person.
Xu Lu said with a smile: "Cheng Yu, don't worry. Although Teacher Qin is young, his ability in music is real. Teacher Shen Fang has experienced this personally, so don't talk about quitting the circle." Something like that.”
After she finished speaking, Cao Kun immediately echoed: "Teacher Qin's creative ability is obvious to all. He has not made his debut yet, but he has many fans in our company. With Teacher Qin's contribution, it's just a song." Isn’t it already within reach?”
The two of them sang in harmony and instantly praised Qin Luo. Cheng Yu looked at Qin Luo with eyes full of eagerness and expectation.
Qin Luo felt helpless. As a person, it is natural to enjoy praise and praise, but if he gets carried away just because of a few words of praise from others, he will probably fall into trouble.
For example, in the current situation, if Qin Luo can successfully write a suitable song, then everything will be happy.
But what if Qin Luo didn't do this?
The result is obvious. Qin Luo's value will be lowered invisibly, and the contract between him and Shao Hong Entertainment has not been officially signed. Under such circumstances, Cao Kun can take advantage of the situation and raise the price to win this cooperation. to gain more benefits.
In essence, whether Qin Luo can complete this unexpected task or not, it will not affect his cooperation with Shao Hong Entertainment, but in the worst case, he may lose a lot of profits.
Qin Luo knew that he was not targeting him intentionally, but the basic operation of an old fox in the workplace, but it still made him feel unhappy.
He silently noted this in his mind, but showed no emotion on his face. He just said, "Please help me find the banknotes."
"No problem!" Cheng Yu responded immediately, and then hurried to help Qin Luo find paper and pen.
As a singer, although he is now on the decline, he still has second-tier popularity in the circle.
Although he doesn't always travel with bodyguards or be surrounded by a group of fans when he gets off the plane, he still has a certain identity and status.
But after treating Qin Luo as a life-saving straw, he didn't put on any airs at all, and even took the initiative to help run errands, without even instructing his agent.
This certainly reflects his current regard for Qin Luo and his eagerness for new songs, but on the other hand, it also reflects his personality.
His temper is a bit irritable, but it is mostly caused by a strong sense of crisis, coupled with Cao Kun's intentional influence just now, which makes him seem a bit impulsive. In fact, he should be a good person, at least he should not have too much scheming... Qin Luo had such a conclusion about Cheng Yu in his heart, and he also had a certain fondness for him.
Compared to a smiling old fox like Cao Kun, he would rather deal with such a careless person.
"Here, paper and pen!"
Cheng Yu left and came back soon.
He spread the paper flat on the table next to the tuning equipment, then pulled out a chair for Qin Luo, and said with a smile: "Teacher Qin, please sit down... What about that? Do you want something to drink? Or give you some time first." Brewing for a while?"
"No."
Qin Luo shook his head, then sat at the table, picked up the pen and started to show off his operations.
Seeing him start writing without hesitation, the other three people looked a little surprised.
Especially Cao Kun, when he proposed to Qin Luo to write this song before, it was just a sudden idea. After all, when he thought about it, even if Qin Luo was really a genius, it would be impossible for him to come up with it in such a short period of time. A song that meets their requirements.
But Qin Luo wrote confidently, and he still looked confident... Could it be that he was really talented enough to compose a song as required in a short time?
If it is true, then he is indeed a genius, but can the quality of the songs he wrote in such a short period of time meet the standards?
The same question also appeared in the minds of Cheng Yu and Xu Lu, but they did not express it. They just stared at the piece of paper with notes constantly filled in, hoping that Qin Luo could bring them all a piece of paper. surprise……
