After failing the college entrance examination, he became a big star

Chapter 141 Ning Lan's Determination

In the previous life on Earth, with the evolution of the entertainment industry, after the new millennium, the term "human design" gradually came into being.

That is to say, after the artist enters the industry, the company will carry out all-round packaging for the artist. A very important point is the image positioning of the artist in the public eye.

This image is not only the external appearance, but also the personality and style of doing things.

Liu Mingliang is said to be the most suitable man to be a husband, so there is a human design in it, but in the 90s of this world, the human design has not been strengthened, and the company's packaging for artists is still in the appearance stage.

Take Li Kai as an example. After joining Time Records, he took a few tutoring classes, but the company did not impose any regulations.

Except for formal occasions, he had to wear the service required by the company and avoid the minefields in his words, he was no different from his usual self.

It is not difficult to infer from this that at least [-]% of the image created by Liu Mingliang matches him.

A strong man with a tender side, summed up as heroic tenderness!

Undoubtedly, it is the kind of man that thousands of men want to be, and it is also the most suitable man for life in the hearts of thousands of women.

It can be said that this is one of the most elite idols in the entertainment industry, and one of them can even be removed!

Even in the later generations of the earth, it is rare for an artist to position such a persona, because it is too difficult.

The aura of the strong comes from a brave and fearless heart, and the tenderness also comes from the gentleness in the heart. Without inner support, if you have to deliberately shape it, it will be like a tiger instead of a dog.

It is not unreasonable to become the most popular person in the domestic music scene.

However, Li Kai will not retreat in spite of difficulties. The stronger the opponent, the greater the pressure, the more it can play a gold test effect, and the more it can stimulate his fighting spirit.

"Old Xu, do you want to dissuade me, or scare me away?" Li Kai threw a piece of cantaloupe into his mouth, and Xu Qianqiu took a deep look at him: "Will you listen to persuasion, or will you be scared away?"

Li Kai smiled: "Am I shameless for postponing the release of the film and changing the date of the film?"

"You are very similar to Liu Mingliang back then. You both have a fearless heart." Xu Qianqiu was not surprised at all. He introduced Liu Tianwang to Li Kai in detail to let Li Kai know himself and the enemy, not because he wanted Li Kai to change his mind. , besides, he also knew that it was impossible to change.

They have communicated with each other several times, and with Xu Qianqiu's sharp eyes, he has already seen the stubbornness in Li Kai's bones.

Li opened his eyes, waved his hand and said, "Don't flatter me, to tell you the truth, I chose this release period, and it took me a while to struggle."

Xu Qianqiu smiled faintly and looked at Ning Lan: "It's decided, the film will be released in March, what's the specific time?"

"I want to announce the release date in advance, and it will be in the second week of March." Ning Lan looked at Li Kai, and Li Kai met her gaze, and saw a determination in her eyes. When communicating with her last time, The hesitation in Ning Lan's expression was completely different from the entanglement.

The former Queen of Heaven finally made up her mind!
As far as Li Kai knows, Murphy's film release date is fixed at the beginning of March, either the first week or the second week. Afterwards, two top-tier singers will postpone the release of the film by one week according to Murphy's specific release time. .

Right now, Ning Lan wants to be the first to announce, because she wants to turn passive into active, and turn a war into an engagement.

Obviously, with this album, Ning Lan is determined to return to the peak, and even surpass the peak!
"Yes." Li Kai gave two simple words.

Feng Mo, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly sighed: "The discourse music scene, which has been quiet for a long time, is about to surge again."

He raised his head and said, "Old Xu, let me just say that December is just a rehearsal, a group of little fairies fighting, and February and March will be the real show, and all the big fairies are going to fight."

Xu Qianqiu shook his head bitterly: "You are causing trouble."

"That's right!" Feng Mo didn't shy away at all, his eyes sparkled with excitement: "I always like to be lively, if the Chinese music scene is still as dead as the previous two years, how could it arouse my urge to go out?"

Xu Qianqiu ignored him, looked at Ning Lan and said, "I'm not an expert in the production of albums, so I won't express my opinions. I just want to say that Lao Liu's song will either be included in the first or second album, or it will be discarded."

The old Liu in his mouth is a big name in the circle. If it is included in the album, it is not the main hit. It is equivalent to someone selling your favor, but you slap him in the face. There is no such person.

Ning Lan didn't answer the call right away, she looked at Li Kai and said, "I mentioned to you on the phone before, can you give me the female part of the duet song?"

Li was stunned. Ning Lan released the film in the second week of March, and the TV series will be released around the same time. It is a big extra promotional resource for Ning Lan's album.

It's just that, although this couplet singing is a classic, it still lacks weight in terms of Ning Lan's ambition to return to the top.

"no problem."

The candidates for the female vocal part have not been decided. The female singers in the company, Ning Lan, are well-deserved number one in terms of level and singing skills, not to mention that they have personal relationships with each other.

Ning Lan was interested, and Li Kai would naturally not refuse.

"However." After a pause, after thinking for a few seconds, he continued: "Whether it will be the first or second title of the album, let's talk about it later. Let me listen to the song by Teacher Liu later."

"Okay, tomorrow morning I will go to discuss with Mr. Qiao, and the album project can be officially approved in the afternoon." Ning Lan nodded slightly, then remembered something, and said: "I have returned to Deputy Director Luo."

Without waiting for Li Kai to ask why, he explained: "The two generals under Deputy Director Luo, Chaoyang and Fan Xing, had a feud with you, and I went to compete with you again, let's forget it."

Li Kai smiled, he didn't want to express his opinions on this matter, but from a personal point of view, he really didn't want Ning Lan to switch to Deputy Director Luo.

After eating, the four of them went back to the bar lobby, drinking and chatting for a while, Li Kai told about He Jingyun's situation, and the three of them agreed that He Jingyun should go to Huage Records.

The most direct reason is that Nisuo has Murphy, Gunxue has Su Yaqing, Hua Ge female singers are relatively weak, and He Jingyun will receive more attention if she goes.

In addition, there is another cryptic reason that Wager Records has relatively loose control over artists.

It was almost eleven o'clock, Ning Lan couldn't bear the drowsiness, went to the room behind the bar to rest, Li opened his hands and said goodbye, and went to the business hotel.

Shen Guanchang slept deeply. Li opened the door and came in. He just opened his eyes and fell asleep again.

Li Kai simply shrank back on the sofa, pulled a stool to support his feet, and slept all night.

Early the next morning, Li Kai and Shen Guanchang went to the restaurant downstairs.

A simple bowl of shredded pork noodles per person, each with a poached egg.

After Li Kai finished eating, he wiped his mouth: "Next, what are your plans?"

Shen Guanchang was silent for a while, and then said: "I want to find a temporary job, familiarize myself with the environment, and then set a direction."

Li Jing said: "It's still as agreed last time. Within half a year, I will help you with food and lodging. You can stay in this room for three days. I will pay the rent later. You can settle the rent first within three days. Let me know if the house looks good, 300 yuan per month."

"Okay." Shen Guanchang gritted his teeth: "When I make money, I will pay you back the principal with interest."

Li Kai knew that he wanted to save face, so he nodded with a smile.

Ning Lan's efficiency is very high, no, it should be said that Qiao Li's efficiency is very high.

Ning Lan found Qiao Li in the morning, and in the afternoon, Qiao Li got Ning Lan's album project approved.

Ning Lan's release is scheduled for March 3th.

Just like when Li Kaiding released the film a week before the Spring Festival, the company was shocked when the news came out. At 04:30, after Qiao Li announced on behalf of the company, the circle was shocked!
In March, it was not only Murphy's regular film release period, but also two top-tier regular film release periods.

Ning Lan chose the second week of March, and it was like being airborne, and she was directly stuck between Murphy and the two first-tier top players.

March, which was already packed with film releases, suddenly became extremely crowded.

It is foreseeable that a melee in the domestic music scene will start again!

As Feng Mo said, December is just a group of little fairies fighting, and March is when all the great fairies fight!
Before March, there was another February, when Li Kai and Liu Mingliang released films at the same time. As time went by, this topic became more and more popular.

Snow Records.

Su Yaqing came out of the lounge.

From her agent, she learned of Ning Lan's release time, and after her agent's persuasion, Su Yaqing's mind about releasing the film at the same time as Ning Lan was shaken.

Her complexion is not pretty. She has already spoken in the company before, and the music director also nodded, but she can't fulfill it now, and she must not look good.

However, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is how to convince Luo Yusheng.

She knew very well that Luo Yusheng, as a famous songwriter in the circle, was a very proud person!
With tangled thoughts, Su Yaqing walked alone through a long corridor to the door of another lounge, took a deep breath, then let it out slowly, then opened the door and walked in.

Luo Yusheng was sitting on a chair, looking at a score with concentration.

"Rain."

Hearing a soft cry, Luo Yusheng raised his head, with a gentle look in his eyes.

Seeing Su Yaqing's face, he asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?"

Su Yaqing pulled up a chair and sat down next to him, and after struggling for a while, she talked about Ning Lan's posting time.

Luo Yusheng narrowed his eyes and said, "March 3th. This head-to-head encounter is getting more and more interesting."

Su Yaqing had no choice but to say, "Murphy might release the film this week."

Luo Yusheng nodded: "You and Mo Fei haven't fought head-to-head. It just so happens that this time we will win and beat Mo Fei. Ya Qing, you are the number one female singer in the Chinese music scene today."

Seeing Luo Yusheng's fascinated look, Su Yaqing felt so powerless, she gritted her teeth, and said, "Yusheng, if the two queens collide head-on, it's likely that both sides will suffer. Besides, even if it's not back then, Ning Lan's first-line popularity is still there. of."

Luo Yusheng interrupted in a rare way: "Yaqing, you have to be confident. You have seen the sales charts for the past few weeks. The domestic record market is no longer what it used to be. It is enough for three records with a weekly sales of more than 20 at the same time."

Su Yaqing shook her head lightly: "This is not a wise move, I want to postpone it a little bit, and release the film at the end of March or early April."

A flash of lightning flashed in Luo Yusheng's eyes: "Why? Are you afraid of Mo Fei, or Ning Lan? Yaqing, this is your best chance to climb to the top."

"It's only been more than a year since I sealed it. This album is the first one after I sealed it. I must be cautious." Su Yaqing really lacked confidence. Two queens collided with each other. In her opinion, it was no different from suicide .

Ning Lan was going crazy, she didn't want to be with her.

Luo Yusheng stared at her, his eyes became sharp, and said word by word: "My work is not inferior to anyone, and your popularity is not inferior to anyone. If you and I add it up, it should be Murphy who retreats, or Ning Lan who reschedules. not you."

Seeing the strong fighting intent in his eyes, Su Yaqing struggled in her heart. After a while, she still broke her heart and gritted her teeth: "I've decided, at the end of March or early April, Yu Sheng, this album is very important to me. , I hope you understand."

After all, get up and go.

Luo Yusheng looked at Su Yaqing's leaving back, his eyes throbbed with anger, but after a while, when Su Yaqing stopped and turned around, he gave him an apologetic look.

Luo Yusheng met her gaze, and the anger in his eyes was instantly extinguished. From Su Yaqing's bright eyes, Luo Yusheng saw not only an apology, but also a soft plea.

After Su Yaqing went out, Luo Yusheng sat in a daze for a long time, and finally shook his head and let out a soft sigh.

Li Kai wanted to go home before the awards ceremony, but now he had to cancel.

Ning Lan's film release time has been set, and the album recording is full and only two months away.

Among them, it takes more than half a month to attend the major award ceremonies, as well as the three-week promotion period for his own album.

In other words, during the recording period of Ning Lan's album, he could only be there for about two weeks.

But now, Ning Lan's song has not yet been decided.

Studio 1.

Li Kai listened to the demos of Daka Liu's works, and the quality of the songs is definitely not bad, but as Ning Lan said at the beginning, he just picked the remaining songs, not masterpieces.

For example, it is like the previous earth, the non-title songs in the albums of those kings and queens.

It's okay to use it to improve the overall level of the album, but it's a bit lacking if it's used as the main title.

In addition, this is a standard lyrical and slow song, and it sounds tender and tender. In this year's record market, the sales of this type of song are all above the middle, but there are few outstanding ones.

It doesn't match Ning Lan's determination, or ambition.

Therefore, Li Kai said bluntly: "Sister Ning, we are familiar with each other, and I won't lie to you. In my judgment, this song is the main song. As long as you don't encounter an overly strong record at the same time, you can go platinum." There is hope, but hope is higher, then."

Ning Lan understood the meaning, looked at him and said: "Let me tell you the truth, the reason why I made up my mind is two points, one is that you stimulated me, or it can be said that I figured out your If you avoid strong collisions, how can you return to the top with a serious lack of confidence? You chose to be at the same time as Liu Mingliang, which shocked me a lot."

"Secondly, I have also been stimulated by the outside world. Recently, I have read a lot of entertainment newspapers comparing me with Zhao Yongkang, because he named the Quasi-Heavenly King and also compared me with a new little queen. , and a top-tier female singer, I feel that I am a soft persimmon that everyone can step on. I still wear the title of Quasi-Diva, but I know that few people in the circle really recognize it. It’s not an exaggeration to say that this hat is paper, if I could, I would rather take it off, but you also know that you can’t take off the title once you wear it, you can only fight to defend the title.”

"In addition, Su Yaqing's manager called Li Xia, saying that Su Yaqing's album has been recorded halfway, and asked me when it will be released, and if I want a piece? I can't bear this kind of humiliation!"

At the end, her face was a little pale, and a pair of jade hands unconsciously clenched.

Li's face also became serious. He didn't think that Ning Lan was trying to save face, to live a tree, to live a breath. At the lowest level, you can bear the humiliation, but at the height of Ning Lan, even if some She's out of date, but from the quotation given by the show business, 12 to 15 for a commercial performance, it shows that she is still a solid first-line, at least in the middle.

At this time, letting others humiliate and provoke others, but being indifferent, that is not forbearance, but cowardice and humbleness!
"Li Kai, I have two main songs on this album, I want to ask you, please help me this time." Ning Lan looked at Li Kai with a look of sincerity in her eyes, and she clenched her silver teeth tightly.
