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

Chapter 155 Compromise
12th floor.

In a piece of office area, under the gaze of a pair of surprised eyes, Li Kai strolled all the way to the deepest office of the general manager.

According to the company's rules, employees of other departments are not allowed to visit the lower floors unless they are on business.

Singers under the company rarely come to this floor. Even if they want to communicate about something, it is usually the agent who comes forward.

This is Li Kai's second visit, the first time being the day he officially joined the company.

The door of the office was closed tightly, Li Kai knocked a few times, but there was no response, and knocked a few more times, still no response.

Li Kai was scratching his head when the door of the next office opened and Gao Dongliang came out.

As the assistant to the general manager and the quasi-high level of the company, he also has an independent office.

"Li Kai, are you here to see Mr. Ren?"

"Assistant Gao."

Li Kai nodded and said, "There is something I want to talk to Mr. Ren about."

"Mr. Ren has gone to another place, and he won't join the company until next week. Tell me if you have anything to do."

Gao Dongliang made a gesture of invitation.

Li Kai pondered for a while, then agreed, and walked into his office.

Although his level was comparable to Qiao Li's, the area of ​​the office was much smaller and there was no dedicated reception area. Li Kai just sat down at the desk. Gao Dongliang poured him a glass of warm water before returning to sit behind the desk.

Li Kai didn't exchange pleasantries, and directly handed over the newspaper in his hand: "Assistant Gao, read this news."

Gao Dongliang grunted, his gaze moved slowly, and he read a thousand-character essay for five or six minutes. At the end, he raised his head and looked at Li Kai, with a questioning expression in his eyes.

Li Kaidao: "It was mentioned in the report that the company has confirmed the news that I will go to the Spring Festival Gala. I wonder if it is true?"

"It should be, the efficiency of the marketing department is quite high."

Gao Dongliang smiled and said in a long voice: "Li Kai, the Spring Festival Gala is the highest stage in the domestic entertainment industry. Once you go to the Spring Festival Gala, your popularity will increase."

Li Kai interrupted directly: "But the problem is, the company hasn't confirmed with me yet."

Gao Dongliang was a little dazed: "Mr. Qiao didn't notify you?"

Li Kai said slowly: "Mr. Qiao talked to me. The condition for me to go to the Spring Festival Gala is that the company asks me to produce three songs at a price of [-] yuan each, right?"

"That's right, is there a problem? There is only one spot for the Spring Festival Gala, and the company worked hard to get it. This spot belongs to you now, and you have to pay some. The [-] song is the top class of the little guy." The standard is completely in line with the coffee positions recognized in your circle."

Seeing Gao Dongliang's perfectly normal expression, Li Kai narrowed his eyes slightly: "But such a condition, I can't accept it."

Gao Dongliang changed his stunned face like flipping through a book: "What?"

Li Kai pointed to the newspaper in his hand, and said to himself: "Huanxing Entertainment News is the largest entertainment newspaper in China. I dare say that as soon as this report comes out, other entertainment newspapers will immediately rush to reprint it. The possibility of hype, and my fans knew that I was going to be on the Spring Festival Gala, and they were eagerly looking forward to it. In the end, I was not on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. This is a kind of emotional damage to my fans, and it will cause my popularity to plummet.”

Speaking of this, he leaned forward leaning on the back of the chair, tapped the tabletop with his hand, and said in a solemn tone: "I came to Mr. Ren to discuss a solution to solve this problem."

Every time Li Kai said something, Gao Dongliang frowned, and when Li Kai finished speaking, Gao Dongliang's brows were already furrowed, and his expression became cold.

He looked at Li Kai, was silent for a while, and said, "Li Kai, does the company treat you badly?"

Li Kai met his gaze, didn't answer, and waited for the next sentence.

"The company gave you the opportunity to go to the Spring Festival Gala, but only asked you for three songs, and gave you a corresponding price."

"Assistant Gao."

Li opened his eyes and said, "Believe it or not, I'm going to put out a word now, one song is 30, and I guarantee that within 24 hours, no less than ten singers will come to me to make an appointment to sing."

Gao Dongliang was choked heavily, and his face was a little embarrassed.

If other young coffees say such things, Gao Dongliang will say with absolute contempt: Then try, but sitting opposite him is Li Kai, let alone 30 songs, it is 50 songs, within a day, Yue Ge I'm afraid there are more than ten singers.

Of course, the singer's record company has to consider the overall situation, and may not approve of this price, but the singer is willing, as long as he can become popular, so what if he pays for it out of his own pocket?
Just like Tan Guangyue, didn't he just share his three points with Li Kai? As a result, with a single album from a newcomer to a second-tier player, the price of a commercial show directly soared to more than 10, and at most three points could be paid for ten shows. The supplies are back.

I don't know how many singers in the circle are jealous!

"Li Kai, you can achieve what you are today, firstly because of your own efforts, and because of the company's cultivation of you."

Gao Dongliang was on fire, and spoke slowly, but was stopped by Li Kai again: "Assistant Gao, the more records I sell, the more famous I become, and the higher the price of commercial endorsement, the more the company will earn. And it’s taking the lead.”

Gao Dongliang was choked again, his expression was extremely ugly.

Li Kai is a thorn head covered with a gentle skin, he has heard of this for a long time, but today, he has personally experienced it.

Is what Li Kai said true?of course.

But this kind of big truth cannot be announced, but Li Kai has no taboos.

In addition, he is a big celebrity in front of the general manager. Other singers, no matter how big their cards are, including some department directors who are higher than him, all smile when they face him, with a bit of flattery and flattery.

This gave him a sense of superiority in his heart, but this sense of superiority could not be found in Li Kai.

Why is he open?
In the end, it's not because Li Kai has absolute autonomy as a songwriter and is not restricted by the company at all!

From another perspective, this is also Li Kai's wisdom.

"President Ren personally talked to Qiao Li about this matter, and Qiao Li also agreed. She is your immediate superior. If you have anything, you can talk to her."

Originally, Gao Dongliang wanted to put on the air of a leader and beat Li Kai hard, but after being pushed twice in a row, he stopped being boring and pushed Qiao Li.

I don't forget to add one more sentence: "Li Kai, Mr. Qiao is kind to you, not to mention the kindness of dripping water, but you can't only have your own little interests in your eyes."

After all, he threw the newspaper in front of Li Kai, leaned back, and glanced in the direction of the door.

Li Kai understood what he meant, this conversation is over, but Li Kai is not over, his buttocks stuck to the chair did not move, he picked up the newspaper and glanced at it, and said in his mouth: "Assistant Gao, this matter cannot be delayed. , please give Mr. Ren a call, and I will communicate with Mr. Ren on the phone."

The general manager's copy machine and mobile phone have not been announced to the whole company, but as an assistant, Gao Dongliang must know.

Gao Dongliang's eyes darkened, and he said firmly: "You should go to Qiao Li. If she thinks it is necessary, she will contact Mr. Ren."

Li Kai raised his head slowly, narrowed his eyes and said, "Assistant Gao, is it because you are too lazy to make this call, or is it inconvenient to make it?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Boom!"

Li Kai suddenly stood up and slammed his fist on the desk heavily. The loud impact made Gao Dongliang's heart beat violently.

Li Kai looked down at him, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, and his face turned pale when he saw Gao Dongliang's heart trembled: "Li Kai, you want to do it."

"I sold one less album. If I lost one yuan, the company would lose at least five yuan. I put my attitude here, trying to force me to submit, dreaming!"

A sneer flashed across the corner of his mouth, Li opened his eyes and turned around to leave. When he opened the door, he saw Assistant Gao's secretary standing outside with a nervous expression on his face.

Li Kai knew that the secretary was alarmed by that punch, and this effect was what he wanted, so he went straight past the secretary with a dark face.

Outside is the general management department. Some of the employees in the office area were standing and some were sitting, but they all cast their gazes in unison, apparently hearing the punch.

Li Kai just glanced at it indifferently, and then walked away.

Before leaving get off work, various rumors about Li Kai going to Gao Dongliang's office spread within the company.

In some versions, Li Kai was reprimanded by Gao Dongliang, and then slapped Gao Dongliang on the table.

In some versions, Gao Dongliang reprimanded Li Kai and even slapped Li Kai on the table.

In another version, Gao Dongliang and Li Kai got into a fight, and finally both of them patted the table.

Various
Gao Dongliang felt aggrieved in his heart!

At first, I thought that Li Kai's punch was just to get angry, but later, I slowly figured it out, Li Kai did it on purpose, just to let the outside staff hear it, causing various speculations.

Gao Dongliang knew very well that Mr. Ren, including several other high-level executives, coveted Li Kai's works, and wanted to press every step of the way to make Li Kai submit. As long as he started, once, then the rest would be easy.
But covetously coveted, but will not really do anything to Li Kai, now Li Kai is the company's cash cow!
As Li Kai said, if he loses one point, the company will lose five points.

Between the company and Li Kai, it is not so much a game as a tug of war, that is, you have more, I have less, you have less, and I have more.
Originally, the task of tug-of-war with Li Kai was given to Qiao Li, but in the end Li Kai refused to submit, and if any losses were caused, it would be the blame of Qiao Li.

But now, Li Kai's troubles spread throughout the company, and he and Li Kai had a conflict, not to mention all the ropes in Qiao Li's hands, at least half of them.

"Bastard!" Gao Dongliang slammed his fist on the armrest of the chair, his face was ashen, Li Kai cheated anyone, he insisted on cheating him.
Squinting his eyes at the phone on the table, his eyes flickered, he struggled for a while, then picked up the phone and called Mr. Ren.

the other side.

Qiao Li's new secretary also reported the company's rumors to Qiao Li. After listening to Qiao Li, she pondered for a long time and finally sighed. She knew that if Li Kai did this, the company might compromise. , especially Mr. Ren, will definitely have a grudge in his heart.

As expected, Huanxing Entertainment News exclusively published the news that Li Kai was attending the Spring Festival Gala, and all the entertainment newspapers followed suit.

However, this topic hadn't heated up yet. The next afternoon, Time Records held a press conference, announcing that there was a mistake in the news about the newcomer Wang's participation in the Spring Festival Gala. In the end, it was the company's first-line singer, Streamer, who made it to the Spring Festival Gala.

The singer who sang with Liu Guang was a first-line female singer under Rolling Snow Records.

After listening to Ni Houdao's report, Li Kai was not surprised at all. He is about to release the film, and the company can't force him to death. As long as his attitude is strong enough, the company must be the one who compromises in the end.

However, in this way, he must have offended some company executives, especially Assistant Gao, and Mr. Ren behind Assistant Gao.

This is also impossible.

1 month 31 day.

On his last day in the company, tomorrow he will travel across the country to start the promotion of his new album.

And these days, the popularity of the topic about the top-ranking king VS rookie king has also been continuously pushed up by the major media.

What Li Kai didn't expect was that Liu Mingliang's fans boycotted him. Reports on this aspect have not stopped every day since mid-January. However, there were five reports in yesterday's entertainment newspaper. , his fans also started to boycott Liu Mingliang.

This made him further realize that his popularity has increased significantly compared to before mid-January.

As if, it was brought to him by the two awards ceremony.

It's still incomparable with the super first-line, but compared to the first-line mid-range, it may be a fight, and many of his fans are die-hard fans.

Otherwise, there is absolutely no possibility of anti-boycott.

One must know that these fans who boycotted Liu Mingliang also had to bear tremendous pressure.

They are using their actions to express their absolute support for Li Kai.

It was on this day, around four o'clock in the afternoon, that Ning Lan finally finished recording ten songs for her album.

Qiao Li didn't delay, and directly called two senior producers in the upper department, and had an audition session. Li Kai, as half of Ning Lan's album director, was also allowed to participate.

As a result, it was naturally a smooth pass.

In the end, when the show was over, Qiao Li purposely left Li Kai behind.

"I've tried my best to fight for you, but your publicity fee...is only 60." Qiao Li's face was apologetic, and her tone was the same.

Li Kai had been prepared for a long time, and shrugged calmly: "To be honest, it's a little less, but I'm still very confident in my album."

Qiao Li looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and exhaled: "Well, I still have some connections. I have entrusted some connections, but I haven't responded yet. However, I will definitely give you one or two live concerts on local TV stations." This time, during your publicity period, I will be your temporary agent."

Li was surprised: "Mr. Qiao, you will be my manager."

Qiao Li pursed her lips and smiled: "Yeah, I got my broker license five years ago. During your publicity period, how much can the radio and TV live broadcasts give you? Is it pure interviews or can you Singing on the spot, in fact, there is no certain result, it depends on the manager to communicate, Mr. Ni, he can do practical things, but the communication is lacking."

Li Kai thought about it, but he didn't refuse, nodded and said: "Then please Mr. Qiao."
