Chapter 240 A Small Gift
"Mr. Qin, do you plan to open an entertainment company?"

When talking about such a serious matter, Cheng Yu was no longer the same as before, his attitude changed from flattery to serious, and he even called Qin Luo "Mr. Qin".

Qin Luo smiled and said nothing. Seeing this, Cheng Yu continued: "Opening a company is not child's play, especially an entertainment company. There are many people in it. I personally have no doubt about Mr. Qin's ability. , but there are some things..."

Cheng Yu didn't finish his words, but his meaning was very clear.

As he said, he does not doubt Qin Luo's personal ability. Just based on Qin Luo's creative ability, if Qin Luo really plans to open an entertainment company, even if it only has a few small artists, relying on Qin Luo The songs you write can also become popular.

But human ability is limited after all. No matter how talented a person is, he will eventually run out of talents. If a company wants to become bigger and stronger, it must not rely on just one person. Cheng Yu believes that Qin Luo has the ability to start a company and knows that he There is no shortage of money, Cheng Yu can see this through Qin Luo's car, but this does not mean that Cheng Yu dares to leave everything he has and take Qin Luo's olive branch.

No matter how Cheng Yu has declined over the years, the foundation he has accumulated over the years is still there. What's more, his personal ability is not a problem. The reason why he has been declining is just because he can't keep up with the changes and progress of the times.

Now he is transforming into an actor, and overall it is quite smooth. Although most of this is due to Qin Luo, it is still not enough for Cheng Yu to make up his mind and dedicate his future to a boy who is only 20 years old. body.

It is true that he respects Qin Luo very much and has no doubt about Qin Luo's ability, but if the chips Qin Luo shows are only superficial, then Cheng Yu still can't place a bet.

Seeing Cheng Yu's silent look, Qin Luo knew what he was thinking, and Qin Luo was not surprised at all.

No matter how respectful Cheng Yu is to him, it is simply because he helped him when he was in trouble. This is considered a kindness, but it is far from enough to make others work for him without any worries.

Today, Cheng Yu is still one of the two pillars of Shao Hong Entertainment. Even if he goes to other companies, he can still get good treatment. Qin Luo is currently alone. His only advantage, apart from his creative ability, is that he has some experience in the music industry. Although he is famous, it will be difficult to win over Cheng Yu with just these words.

So Qin Luo didn't say much. He stood up and said, "I won't go into details. I won't rush into this matter. I am very optimistic about Teacher Cheng. If Teacher Cheng has confidence in me, how much will it cost?" You can still think about it... no more than three months at most, I think you will probably make up your mind."

three months...

Cheng Yu pondered for a moment, and when he saw Qin Luo getting up, he thought he was going to leave directly. He was about to say something, but found that Qin Luo took a pen and paper and sat back down, and then began to write quickly on the paper.

Cheng Yu was slightly startled when he saw this, and then narrowed his eyes, expectation and hesitation reflected in his eyes.

He knew what Qin Luo was writing and what Qin Luo's intention was in writing it.

But...just relying on a song is far from enough to make him change his mind.

Soon, under Cheng Yu's gaze, a new song with lyrics and music score was released.

Qin Luo pushed the paper in front of Cheng Yu and said, "This is a small gift from me to Teacher Cheng Yu. I have something else to do so I won't leave it any longer. Goodbye."

After Qin Luo said that, he stood up and left. Cheng Yu didn't stop him when he saw this. He just stood up and said hello, then eagerly picked up the paper and started browsing.

"moonlight……"

He whispered the title of the song softly, then hummed softly along with the music score, and sang the lyrics vaguely.

"The color of the moonlight, the fragrance of a woman, tears breaking the sword, how long is the love..."

Halfway through the song, Cheng Yu fell silent and didn't make any more noise. However, the sparkle in his eyes and the slightly trembling hand holding the paper showed his inner excitement at this time.

It's not his fault, after all, the new songs recorded on this paper are exactly what he needs most right now.

It was an antique song, with love as the main melody, but it also made people feel the smoke of war in troubled times between the lines. It perfectly met the conditions that the great director put forward for him.

In terms of Cheng Yu's musical literacy, just by humming once, he could realize that this was a classic song that was no worse than "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". And if he showed it to the great director, then his actors would The road to transformation will be completely opened up, and what will follow will not just be a second career, but will break through bottlenecks and reach new heights on the career path.

And if he can continue to get a few more songs like this from Qin Luo, in time he might be able to become the king of the music scene... And this has been Cheng Yu's long-cherished wish since childhood.

"Just sing this song to the great director..."

Cheng Yu couldn't control his inner excitement. While talking to himself, he took out his mobile phone and found the contact information of the great director from the address book. When he was about to call the other party, his fingers paused again. top of the screen.

After a brief silence, Cheng Yu sighed, then put his mobile phone and the song in his hand on the table, his expression became extremely tangled.

Qin Luo said that this song was a gift to him, but in essence it was an olive branch that turned into reality. If Cheng Yu accepted it, it would mean that he accepted Qin Luo's invitation, and if he did not accept... ...Faced with such a gift that could change his career, how could Cheng Yu resist the temptation?

Of course, he could also use the song directly. When Qin Luo asked, he said that he had renewed his contract with Shao Hong Entertainment and left Qin Luo behind.

But the consequence of doing this is that his conscience will be condemned for the rest of his life. At the same time, if Qin Luo wants to cause trouble for him, then this matter is also nonsense. After all, Qin Luo only verbally said that this was a gift. His gift, but he did not sign any substantive contract.

So in essence, this is Qin Luo's song, and Cheng Yu wouldn't dare to use it casually even if he got it.

After a long silence, Cheng Yu suddenly shook his head helplessly, smiled and said to himself: "You are only 20 years old... Tsk, when I was the same age as you, I was still singing in a pub..."

The moment he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

Following Cheng Yu's greeting, the door was pushed open, and Cheng Yu's manager Xu Lu walked in.

As soon as she came in, she said directly: "Teacher Cheng, the company has already drawn up a new contract. The specifications are still S-level. Compared with the previous one, there has been a good increase in benefits. The contract period is five years. Take a look. ."

After speaking, Xu Lu placed a contract in front of Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu glanced at the stack of contracts in front of him, his eyes looking a little subtle.When Cheng Yu was on the decline, his contract was about to expire, but the company never took the initiative to renew the contract. Cheng Yu himself did mention it several times, but nothing happened because of remuneration issues. Of.

Now that Cheng Yu has come back to life with Qin Luo's song "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the company can't sit still anymore. Of course, they will not let their mainstay leave, so they have been talking to Cheng Yu about contract renewal during this period. .

Because the contract had not been negotiated some time ago, Cheng Yu himself criticized Shao Hong Entertainment, but he still thought about renewing the contract. However, Qin Luo's sudden visit today changed his inner thoughts, so that Now I am not even in the mood to read the contract.

But that's what you say, but you still have to show what you should show. After all, although Xu Lu has been with Cheng Yu for many years, she is still essentially a member of Shao Hong Entertainment.

With this in mind, Cheng Yu took the contract in his hand and read it carefully. Xu Lu on the side saw this and said: "Thanks to the song "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", now you have successfully taken the first step of transformation. According to the company I still hope that you can participate in a TV series or movie to accumulate experience. If you can also get a song from Teacher Qin that is no worse than "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" as the theme song of the movie or TV series, then It’s really… tsk tsk tsk.”

After saying that, Xu Lu glanced at the piece of paper on the table curiously. Seeing the lyrics and music score written on it, she asked curiously: "What is this? A new song written for you by the lyrics and music teacher?"

As she said this, she was about to take the paper and take a closer look, but Cheng Yu on the side was so excited that he felt as if his tail had been stepped on. He directly picked up the paper and hid it behind his back, looking as if he was furious. Xu Lu was shocked.

"Um...what's wrong, Teacher Cheng?"

"……nothing."

Cheng Yu didn't explain too much. He just put the contract in his hand on the table, then rubbed his temples and said, "Tell the company that I need to think about renewing the contract again."

Xu Lu was not surprised by this. The signing of a contract represents the future profit of an artist. The more you talk about it, the more profit you can make. Although it may only increase by one or two points in the end, these two points This point cannot be underestimated.

Not to mention ordinary young men, but for an artist of Cheng Yu's stature, it is quite a fortune.

Seeing that there are still three months left before the contract expires, Cheng Yu has regained the initiative and the right to speak, so this matter can be discussed.

"it is good."

Xu Lu didn't say anything more and took the contract back directly. She glanced at Cheng Yu's back, with a hesitant look on her face, obviously wanting to ask him what he was hiding in being so excited just now.

When Cheng Yu saw this, he suppressed his blush and explained with a slight embarrassment: "It's a song I wrote out of boredom when I was young. It's nothing interesting."

Xu Lu was slightly startled when she heard this, then covered her mouth and smiled.

She knew that Cheng Yu was a bit of a literary figure when he was young, and the songs he wrote were obviously a bit sour, so she regarded those works of her youth as black history. After hearing this, she didn't doubt anything anymore and was just happy. He joked: "At least you created it carefully. Maybe it will be quite popular if you sing it."

"Ha ha……"

……

"That's about it for the specific itinerary, so before evening we have to go to Suzhou to participate in this commercial performance. While we still have some time, we will finalize the songs we will sing in the next episode. After all, you can only perform well on the show. The popularity will get better and better, and then there will be more and more activities like today... I am a little tired, but for you, whether it is increasing your popularity or making money, it is a good thing."

After Feng Nan finished speaking, he put down the small book in his hand and took a drink of water. Then he looked at Yao Yanyan sitting opposite and found that she was still lost in thought.

After yesterday's "Voice of Creation" program was broadcast, the popularity of Yao Yanyan and Shao Xinxin skyrocketed overnight, and various invitations followed. As their manager, Feng Nan naturally wanted to introduce these The activities were arranged in an orderly manner, and I mainly talked to them about this today.

But for some reason, Yao Yanyan, who should be in high spirits, behaved strangely from the moment they met.

At first, when Feng Nan and Shao Xinxin saw Yao Yanyan sitting alone in the room crying, they thought something had happened to her, but when asked, Yao Yanyan said she just yawned.

People may shed one or two tears when they yawn. This is normal. Feng Nan didn't think much about it, but Shao Xinxin obviously didn't think so, so she has been looking at Yao with suspicion from the beginning to now. Yanyan.

Yao Yanyan, on the other hand, was always lost in thought, and her attention was obviously not focused on Feng Nan. Occasionally, she seemed not to hear Feng Nan talking to her. After two more calls, she would say "Huh?" Know what is going on in your heart.

Just like now, Feng Nan had finished speaking, but Yao Yanyan didn't react at all. Her eyes were blank, and she didn't know where she was wandering. Shao Xinxin frowned slightly and looked at Yao. Yanyan didn’t know what she was thinking.

Feng Nan was quite helpless about this, so she had to knock on the table and said, "Did you hear what I just said?"

Shao Xinxin came back to her senses after hearing the voice and responded casually: "Ah? Oh, I heard it. I'm going to Suzhou in the afternoon... By the way, will you be back in the evening?"

Feng Nan thought for a while and said: "If everything goes well, the event will be over before ten o'clock in the evening. You can also drive back directly after the end. After all, the journey is not too far. It depends on you."

"I can do that, what about you?" Shao Xinxin turned to ask Yao Yanyan, but Yao Yanyan seemed to have heard nothing and just sat there in a daze the whole time.

Shao Xinxin raised her eyebrows involuntarily, while Feng Nan was a little dissatisfied. After all, she had been talking about business, not because she wanted the two little girls in front of her to have a better development. None of them took it seriously, which made her, the agent, very helpless.

Depressed, Feng Nan knocked on the table hard again, and asked Yao Yanyan with a slight dissatisfaction: "Yanyan, you have been distracted since just now, what is on your mind?"

This time Yao Yanyan finally came to her senses. She glanced at Feng Nan, then pursed her lips and showed an elegant smile: "It's nothing, I have no problem, just follow Sister Nan's arrangements."

Seeing her like this, Feng Nan couldn't say anything serious and could only ask her: "Are you ready for the next song?"

When Yao Yanyan and Shao Xinxin participated in the show, it stands to reason that the songs to be sung were all prepared by the company's songwriters, but Qin Luo had a cooperative relationship with the company, and Qin Luo reached an agreement with the company before the show was broadcast. The song indicating that the two little girls participated in the show was composed entirely by Qin Luolai.

Qin Luo's creative ability is there, so the company is naturally happy to see this happen, and also wants to ask Qin Luo to reserve the operating rights for those songs. Unfortunately, Qin Luo is not so easy to talk to this time, and just said that these songs were written just to let people The two little girls took it to the stage to sing. As for whether they should be handed over to Shao Hong Entertainment for operation, they would have to discuss it later.

In view of this, when Feng Nan asked about the next song, she naturally had to ask Yao Yanyan.
