Get off work and become the Godfather of Rock and Roll

Chapter 1 Company Annual Meeting
"The company will hold its annual meeting soon, Mai Zishan, do you want to go up and show your skills?" Li Jiang from the human resources department asked with a smile.

His smile was accompanied by his frivolous tone, and the meaning was very clear - the company's annual meeting will select people to perform. I know that no one is willing to go, but someone has to go.

"Director Mai, don't you know how to play Hulusi? I've seen you play it in the office before, and let me tell you, it sounds really good." Li Jiang continued to encourage.

Mai Zishan held his forehead and slumped down on the office chair. He knew that if he didn't agree, Li Jiang would continue to harass him like this.

And the person who made things difficult for him was not Li Jiang.

It was a company he had worked for for decades, but due to poor performance, some people always had to leave.

As a director, he had a high position, high salary costs, and was not at the top of the company, so he became a candidate for surgery.

Even for trivial matters like annual gatherings, they would make him sick, with the purpose of forcing him to leave.

"Okay, I got it." Mai Zishan had no choice but to agree to keep his ears clean.

Want to force me to leave?
No way, I'm just going to perform a striptease! It is impossible to resign voluntarily without receiving compensation!
Li Jiang got the answer he wanted, ticked his form with satisfaction, and then started looking for the next person on the form.

After Li Jiang left, Mai Zishan sat blankly in his office chair.

Thoughts raced in his mind.

Since this year, his position and salary have been declining. First, his independent office was removed, and then executives at his level were airborne. Undercurrents are surging, waiting for an opportunity to oust him.

So damn...tired.

How did the gears of fate turn me here?
Mai Zishan opened the drawer and inside was a pair of headphones.

This is a birthday present he bought for himself.

30th birthday gift.

Sony WH-1000XM4.

However, he regrets it now.

Wouldn’t it be good to use this money to pay utility bills? Can't it be used to pay off the mortgage?
Why did you just pull out your hand and buy a pair of headphones?
Forget it, let’s use it for seven days before applying for a return without reason.

Mai Zishan carefully unpacked the outer packaging of the headphones to avoid any trouble when returning them.

He turned on his phone and searched for the playlist on his phone for a long time.

But I still haven't found a song that I really want to listen to.

He originally thought that this headset would bring him the same pleasure and passion as listening to music when he was young.

But now it feels empty and boring.

Mai Zishan sighed and put the headphones back into the box.

Get up and relax your lumbar discs from sitting for a long time.

It's the end of December now, one month away from the company's annual meeting, so I can just blow the cucurbit flute by then.

The cucurbit flute was an instrument he discovered by accident. It is easy to learn and he can play the Titanic in just two weeks.

In order to prove that his musical talent had not disappeared as he reached middle age, he learned three instruments: cucurbit flute, harmonica, and violin.

As it turned out, his musical talent had not disappeared.

What disappeared was just his musical dream.

His current work is also related to music.

He is now a guy who makes money from music.

The job content is to discover songs and melodies that are likely to go viral in the current short video market.

Use big data to analyze and find the core points of communication elements.

Work hard to find a singer with a good voice and record it quickly.

Then it was "accidentally" leaked.

Wait for some big Vs and up owners with good fans to use it.

Then take these big v's to court and collect a compensation fee for copyright infringement.

Just by relying on this move, the company's annual revenue has exceeded 10 million.

Company name: Hearing China.

Mai Zishan walked out of his office and bumped into executives at his level.

Yu Jing. Yu Jing is very young, only twenty-five years old after graduating from graduate school.

She has a lazy beauty that makes people want to fall into her arms.

There are always traces of makeup on her face.

Sometimes my eyebrows are drawn crookedly, sometimes I wear blood-red lipstick to work, and sometimes I wear different colored contact lenses on my two eyes.

But this cannot hide her classical beauty.

If I become serious, I will feel like I will kill all the flowers after they bloom!
She was holding a cup of hot coffee, taking a sip, and stared at Mai Zishan with her eyes.

Like a cat secretly drinking water.

"There was a demo recently that was pretty good." Yu Jing said without a beginning or end.

"Then what?" Mai Zishan was puzzled.

"I just want to inform you that I have made the decision and the people in the team are working overtime to record." Yu Jing adjusted the black glasses that sealed her appearance.

"Oh." Mai Zishan didn't say much, just responded with one word.

Yu Jing is destined to squeeze him out. Whether it is professional ability or youthful vitality, Mai Zishan cannot compare.

Mai Zishan often comforted himself that at least the person who squeezed him out had real talent and was not the boss's connections, so that was okay.

"Okay, you've already made up your mind, what else can I say." Mai Zishan lowered his head and walked forward.

"No? What's wrong? Why are you in such a low mood?" Yu Jing took a step forward, and a slender, white calf stretched out from her pajama-style clothes to stop him.

Why are you feeling down?
Is it because of you?

You've almost stolen my job, haven't you noticed?

"It's nothing, I'm just in a bad mood lately." Naturally, Mai Zishan would not say what was in his heart.

"In a bad mood? Come on, take a sip to refresh yourself."

Yu Jing handed the coffee in her hand to him.

The strong smell of coffee made Mai Zishan feel better. He lowered his head and looked at the cup.

There was a bright red lipstick mark on Doraemon's head on the cup, pointing straight at him.

"No, no, no, no, I don't drink coffee, it's bitter." Mai Zishan avoided the lipstick mark.

Thirty years of single experience naturally helped him avoid this crisis.

When Mai Zishan hid, his rationality suddenly awakened.

Oh shit! What am I hiding from!
I should lick it like crazy!

Yu Jing looked angry on the side.

"You won't drink even if I give you something to drink, it's true."

Mai Zishan took a deep breath. He had now forgotten what he wanted to do when he left the office.

"By the way, happy birthday to you." Yu Jing said this like a kitten waving her paws.

"??how do you know?"

Yu Jing pondered for a moment: "emmm, I will remember the birthday of each subordinate, so that it will be easier for me to lead my team."

???

Who do you call a subordinate?

I'm on the same level as you, okay?

Mai Zishan said in a bad tone: "I am not your subordinate."

"Maybe in the future." Yu Jing's tone was cheerful.

"If one day comes, I will resign myself."

"Ah? I'm just kidding, please stop." Yu Jing immediately panicked.

Mai Zishan said: "This joke is not funny."

"I know, I won't do this next time." Yu Jing's voice slowly became smaller.
