Chapter 20: Too Tender
Chapter 20 is too tender
“Congratulations, you actually made it happen!”
sent the lawyer away, and the two got into Guan Yulan’s car. As a result, she started the car, but instead of rushing to go, she leaned back and congratulated earnestly.
has been an agent for many years and has dealt with record companies all the year round. To a certain extent, she even knows more deeply than Xu Zhenghua about how difficult it is to achieve what Xu Zhenghua has reached.
And you can tell from a few counts that it has not been more than a week since he was blocked by the Oriental Star!
He has taken a new path.
And it seems that there is a high probability that this path will be successful!
Even the top management of the record company thinks that this single has sold 500,000 copies and is certified as a gold disc. There is great hope – this is a single, not an album!
An album generally has ten songs, and the price is generally 15.99 yuan. There is only one song in a single disc, but it has to be priced at 5.99 yuan. This is naturally doomed.
If a single can get a gold record, it is already very popular.
As long as the quality of the subsequent albums is not too bad, hit the market while the iron is hot, the platinum album will be almost guaranteed!
“Ha! Thank you!”
Xu Zhenghua casually threw a stack of CDs wrapped in colorful paper on the seat, smiled and accepted the congratulations from the other party, and replied, “I can’t do without your help, Sister Guan!”
The moment he just signed the contract and raised his glass to celebrate, he was really excited.
In another time and space, a completely unfamiliar career, and a dangerous game like walking a tightrope, it is so easy to get through in the first step, no one is not excited.
But soon, after a sip of wine, he recovered.
It’s still too early to achieve the success you want!
Waiting for “Short Hair” to go on sale smoothly, let’s relax a little and celebrate, it’s almost the same.
Guan Yulan smiled, turned around, and started the car.
However, when she caught a glimpse of Xu Zhenghua picking up the paper bag in the rearview mirror, and easily tore the colored paper to reveal a large stack of CDs, she couldn’t help but ask, “You will write songs for Du Xuelan, right? Bar?”
Xu Zhenghua rushed to the rearview mirror and flashed the stack of CDs in his hand, “Aren’t you there that day? You should know that without Chen Bangdao’s last assist, this matter would probably not have been possible!”
Subconsciously opened the first box and looked at Du Xuelan’s signature on the title page inside.
“It’s a payoff, a deal,” he said.
She had nothing to say and drove seriously.
Not to mention, the handwriting is beautiful.
But it doesn’t feel right in a trance… Flip back and look at the cover, I’ll go!
I remember that Chen Bangdao said that it was arranged in chronological order, so he turned to the bottom one for the first time, which was indeed the one he also had in his hand.
So I was a little stunned, this…
The difference is too big!
It’s hard to believe that the two covers are actually the same person.
Du Xuelan on the first cover is obviously very young, and feels like he is only fifteen, sixteen, sixteen or seventeen years old. It’s a pure mess.
Absolutely picturesque girl!
Look at the last one, which is the one closest to the current time. This cover is beautiful and cold!
“Did Du Xuelan debut very early?” he asked.
“I think it should be.”
Guan Yulan replied casually while driving, “But I can’t remember clearly. She should have debuted in 1986 or 1987, right? At that time, I had a bit of an impression of her, because she just came out and her image was too good, indeed It’s because he’s young, but he doesn’t seem to be very popular all the time.”
“When I heard about her later, even if she signed on to Kojima Records, it should have been… for several years! After coming to Kojima, she transformed herself and took that glamorous route, but she was quite popular. It should be… two Right? After she signed to Kojima, she should have released two albums, and they seem to have obtained platinum certification! In today’s society, it seems that everyone still likes her way. Beautiful and cold!”
Leng Yan…
But look at her on the first album, what a pity!
So pure that I feel pity!
Taking into account the relevant laws and regulations of the country, an artist’s first contract is limited to three years, and the first manager’s contract is also three years. For those under the age of 18, even a maximum of one year is allowed, Xu Zhenghua asked. : “How old can she be when she transforms? She should be young, right? Why is she so anxious to transform?”
“Then who knows! How much power can ordinary singers and entertainers have in their hands? It must be how the company designed and arranged it, so just follow that path!”
What a waste!
It’s too late to walk Leng Yan at the age of 30, eldest sister?
Since sitting in the car anyway, Xu Zhenghua simply looked back in order from her first CD.
is literally a cover chronicle.
The first few pictures are obviously of the same style, and they are all beautiful and pure girlish style, but looking at the back, the copyright owners and publishers are different, and they are obviously produced by the two companies before and after.
The first company has one single and one album, and the second company has one single and one EP, which is the so-called MINI album—probably the first single after the change of company did not sell well. Even the company is reluctant to spend money to make a complete album for her, and get an EP disc to get rid of the contract?
In the fifth picture, her style changed drastically.
From here, the copyright owner is Kojima Records.
Three singles and two albums.
Tsk!
Looking back and forth, her first company is almost certain to have a three-year contract period, and the second is estimated to be three years, even if the sales are very poor, it is not uncommon for the company to choose to terminate the contract ahead of schedule.
Assuming she was seventeen when she signed the first company, then when she transformed into Leng Yanfeng, that is… at most 23 years old?
Nima, many people at this age have not had time to debut, okay?
No, even if she made her debut at the age of seventeen, according to Guan Yulan’s memory, it was only 86 years old at the earliest, so in fact, she is only 24 years old this year?
Then how old was she when she released her first single on Kojima Records and started to try to transform?
20 years old? 21 years old?
Tsk tsk!
Of course, from another perspective, Kojima Records’ transformation of her image and positioning is considered a success!
It might even be said that it saved her career!
well!
But it’s not right…
She took the current line of glamorous and sold two platinum albums in a row, which is considered a good result, but with her style, how could she come to fight for “Short Hair”?
The style doesn’t match!
Yes, when I called for the first time, Chen Bangdao said that she and Kojima Records had the last new song and best album left, so she wanted to use the last few songs on Kojima to test whether she could transform. .
Tsk!
Forget it, it’s useless to think too much, I don’t think about it anymore, I picked up the first album disc, opened it and took out the CD, he bent over and handed it forward, saying, “Let’s play this!”
“Uh…my car is a low-end model, so I can only play tapes!”
Helplessly put away.
“By the way, look back and help me collect some newspapers and magazines in the music and entertainment circles. I don’t know much about the whole circle now, so I need to know more about it. Also… big newspapers in the political and economic fields, famous magazines and so on. Yes, buy a few copies for me too and have a look.”
“it is good.”
This time she readily agreed.
This can be regarded as one of the responsibilities of a broker.
…
“Haha, thank you for your help these days, come on, cheers!”
Writing songs for Du Xuelan can be considered later, no rush.
That night, Xu Zhenghua feasted guests and friends to celebrate his successful production as a producer.
completely twisted with An Xiaojing.
Next, everyone is basically a blessing and a curse.
But in fact, I didn’t invite outsiders, mainly these acquaintances who worked together before.
Guo Kun, Pang Yongxi, An Xiaojing, Yuan Wei, plus two agents, Guan Yulan and Lu Ming.
The location is an ordinary hotel not far from the entrance of the Conservatory of Music.
Of course, he only had two glasses of beer, not even a little drunk, so he stopped first, “I’m afraid I’ll get drunk again, what if I confess to Xiaojing again?”
thus attracted group ridicule.
and An Xiaojing’s coquettish coquettish.
The atmosphere is very warm.
In fact, he didn’t drink much last night.
This bit of self-control is still there.
On the contrary, An Xiaojing looked extremely happy today. Although she obviously kept it on purpose, she didn’t seem to be drinking very well. After two glasses of beer, she was a little lost. Listening to this and other jokes on the wine table , just kept sitting there and smiling silly.
must have seen his bright future.
Seeing that he was almost drinking, Xu Zhenghua got up early and was about to go to the checkout. He went to the bathroom first to release it and washed his hands. The door of the bathroom was suddenly pushed open.
turned his head and saw that it was Yuan Wei.
She blushed from drinking, leaned on the door frame, and stared straight at him.
This restaurant at the entrance of the Conservatory of Music has a very small public toilet in the private room area on the second floor. She stood at the door like this, and the distance from Xu Zhenghua was less than one meter.
Xu Zhenghua finished washing his hands, wiped off two pieces of tissue paper, and glanced at her.
“The zipper is not pulled!”
Xu Zhenghua glanced down and actually pulled it up.
Seeing his action, Yuan Wei chuckled.
But then, she couldn’t laugh anymore, Xu Zhenghua suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled the zipper down again.
“Oh, thanks for reminding Ha!”
He pulled it up again.
Yuan Wei was a little confused.
This was a little different from what she had imagined, and suddenly interrupted her train of thought.
But she quickly came back to her senses and gave Xu Zhenghua a deep look, “Are you going to be fascinated? But to tell you the truth, Xiaojing won’t fall in love with you. She is much smarter than you think. ”
Xu Zhenghua laughed, took a step forward, and followed her example, leaning on the door frame.
The door is only one meter wide, and the two of them almost smelled each other.
This made Yuan Wei quite uncomfortable, he raised his head subconsciously and avoided it a little.
“So what?” he asked.
This attitude is also very wrong, making Yuan Wei feel that the set routine cannot be played out at all.
“Nothing, just to remind you, don’t be too pretentious.”
She suddenly froze.
In a rather indifferent tone, after forcibly saying these words, he got up to withdraw.
But suddenly, an arm came across, blocking the door and blocking the way.
She turned her head.
Xu Zhenghua had a strange smile on his face, and withdrew his hand to grab her **** chin.
Yuan Wei was immediately stunned.
This is not in the plan at all.
With a light touch, he brought that face to him.
Xu Zhenghua leaned down slightly, covered her bright red lips, and took a light sip.
The nose is fiery, with a slight aroma of wine.
The lips are soft and tender.
Yuan Wei was even more confused, “You…”
let go of her, Xu Zhenghua asked with a smile, “What do you want to say?”
Yuan Wei suddenly raised his arm, but was caught again, the man said with an aftertaste, “It tastes good.”
Her face changed suddenly.
“rogue!”
She broke free and turned away.
Xu Zhenghua smiled, turned his head, and followed her back. He didn’t smile until she walked back to the private room, got up and went downstairs to check out.
Girls, you are still too young.
