Chapter 71 The Golden Scales Are In The Pool

In a residential building in Shanghai, the ground looks like it has not been cleaned for a few days, and it is full of water bottles and fast food boxes, as well as torn or clumped music scores. A young man is lazily leaning on the sofa, covering his head with one hand and holding a Sheet music double-checked.His tousled hair and brooding eyes can't hide his funny nature.

While the man was engrossed in reading the music score, the doorbell at home was rang.

"Come on!" The man stood up lazily, and walked slowly towards the door.

As soon as the door opened, Jiang Quan waved his hand half-smiling and half-embarrassed: "Hello! Old Xue!"

"Little Jiang? Aren't you filming a TV series? Why did you come here?" The man named Xue Zhiqian looked puzzled, but he let Jiang Quan into the house anyway.

"The TV series has been finished long ago, so I will take advantage of the spare time and come to Shanghai to see you."

Jiang Quan looked around the room, didn't say anything, sighed silently in his heart, and sat down immediately.

"It's all finished? That's right, it's been several months. Time flies so fast." Xue Zhiqian suddenly felt like a dream. When he and Jiang Quan first met, the other party was still a young boy who had just grown up. That brat is completely on his own.

Seeing that Xue Zhiqian's reaction seemed to be half a beat behind, Jiang Quan couldn't help frowning when he saw the blood in his eyes: "Insomnia?"

Xue Zhiqian nodded indifferently.

"I haven't had a good rest recently, so it's no big deal."

"What's the matter with you, you didn't look so bad last time we met."

Xue Zhiqian smiled wryly, but did not directly respond to Jiang Quan's question.

Jiang Quan had some doubts in his heart: "Is your company doing trouble again?"

"That's it."

After a brief silence, Xue Zhiqian sighed, and spoke out the suppressed words all at once.

"The company is preparing to prepare a new album for me, and the promotional funds are only [-]."

For a moment, Jiang Quan thought he had misheard the number.

"How many?"

"Five thousand, 5000 yuan."

"Five thousand? Huh."

Jiang Quan has changed from questioning to annoyed.

"Old Xue, I think your boss's ambition is definitely not to develop music."

"I can see it."

"There are two more years, Lao Xue, your contract will expire, what are your plans then?"

Xue Zhiqian bit his lower lip lightly, and said slowly: "Champ, I won't stay in this company anymore."

Seeing that Xue Zhiqian already had the idea of ​​changing jobs, Jiang Quan asked, "Then? Have you ever thought about going to that company?"

"I haven't thought about where I'm going yet, so let's just take a step and take a look. I said, what kind of eyes are you looking at? You can't just poach me."

Seeing Jiang Quan's eager eyes, Xue Zhiqian immediately had a reasonable guess.

"If I said that I didn't intend to poach you, it would be nonsense. If I said that I wanted to poach you, I would be too presumptuous."

Jiang Quan, who didn't hide his expression, confided his thoughts to Xue Zhiqian.

"The company I started is just in its infancy, and I have no plans to develop music for the time being. If you really go to my company, I can only guarantee that I won't let you sit on the bench, but the resources you get, short-term There are certainly no more insiders than actors, but over time, everything will be fine. Even so, I don't think you'd be willing to wait any longer."

Jiang Quan began to analyze realistically and calmly: "As a musician, the passage of time is fatal. Maybe his vocal range can reach G4 this year, but he can only reach D4 next year. So, for you, Time is my professional life. There are too many uncertainties around me now, so I really don’t dare to poach you.”

To put it bluntly, if conditions permit, Jiang Quan still wants to recruit Xue Zhiqian, but the current company situation does not know whether it can develop in the direction of music. In order to avoid cheating people he knows, Jiang Quan gave up this plan.

"I also understand what you said." Xue Zhiqian also understood Jiang Quan's situation very well, and didn't ask further.

"Xiao Jiang, you have always had a unique vision. If you were me and left the original company, which new company would you go to?"

A few words awakened the dreamer, and Jiang Quan replied bluntly: "If I were you, the first option would definitely be to go to Haidish."

"Sea Dish? That place is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Are you sure you can compete for resources with a group of great gods?"

"I think you can do it!"

The two confronted each other, and finally ended with Xue Zhiqian's defeat.Although Xue Zhiqian felt that Jiang Quan's words were just a joke, he still had a plan in his heart to go to Haidish to try his luck when he terminated the contract with the company.

"Okay, okay, I've said so much, I'm hungry. I came directly to Shanghai from Hengdian, and I haven't eaten all day today, why don't we eat first and then talk about it."

Jiang Quan interrupted Xue Zhiqian's thinking. He felt that the hint he had given Xue Zhiqian was already obvious enough. If he said more, it made Xue Zhiqian suspect that he was here to be a lobbyist for Haidish. In addition, Jiang Quan was really hungry a long time ago. , so Xue Zhiqian didn't let him think about it.

When Xue Zhiqian heard that Jiang Quan wanted to eat, he jumped off the sofa and walked quickly to the closet in the room. When the door opened, there were instant noodles of various brands and flavors.

"I have all kinds of instant noodles here, what flavor do you like?"

"."

"How about we go out to eat? I invite you."

Finally, under Jiang Quan's strong request, the two came to a hot pot restaurant with a thriving business and ate hot pot.

Pieces of bright red beef were thrown into the boiling water, and after a while, the flesh turned white and was scooped up again.Jiang Quan chewed the beef in his mouth, and asked worriedly: "Old Xue, have you been eating instant noodles all this time?"

Xue Zhiqian, who was also chewing beef, replied vaguely: "No, I don't eat it every day."

"That's good, don't ruin your body." Jiang Quan finally responded helplessly.In the face of people who have a good relationship with themselves, but are far from good enough to know all kinds of things casually, it is inappropriate not to care, and too much caring will cause bad things.The so-called friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, probably refers to this state.

Xue Zhiqian didn't care about the helplessness in Jiang Quan's words at all, but smiled optimistically: "Xiao Jiang, I was in an extremely bad mood today, but because of you, I am in a better mood, thank you for all these years, always Discuss music theory with me."

"Thank you, Old Xue, for being able to listen to my nonsense when discussing music theory over the years."

"Haha, how can it be nonsense. Although it is indeed easy to make people sleepy."

At midnight, Jiang Quan hurried to Modu Airport and boarded the flight to Yanjing.And Xue Zhiqian has already returned to his home, and began to sit and prepare for the new album.The two people in different fields acted separately again, and kept moving towards their goals step by step.
