Just to Sweep the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 13: Dying Alone?

The recording studio introduced by Qi Ming is called Ming Brothers Music Studio, not far from East Third Street, in a small alley.

Walking on the road outside, you can’t see the signs inside at all. It belongs to a place where you can’t find it if you are not familiar with the road. It feels a bit like a deep wine alley.

According to Qi Ming’s introduction, this music studio is run by a pair of twin brothers. The elder brother’s name is Lin Bei and the younger brother’s name is Lin Nan, who are from Long Province in the north.

Speaking of which, it can still have something to do with Yan Lu. The two of them also graduated from the Big Dipper Music Academy and they are Yan Lu’s mentors.

Both of them are above 1.95 meters tall, so they started working part-time as models when they were in school. They were originally going to enter the circle after graduation, but they didn’t know why. Suddenly, the two quit and opened this music studio instead.

On weekdays, the brothers use the name “North to South” to broadcast live on the Internet and post short videos. They also have a small fan base of about 700,000.

It was half past nine in the morning when Yan Lu and Qi Ming came to the studio, and the studio had just opened its doors.

Qi Ming had said hello before he came, so after a few brief chats, Yan Lu went directly into the recording studio and started recording songs.

The soundtrack of “We Still Have Fish Here” can really be done with just one guitar, so Lin Nan was left to go in alone.

Qi Ming and Lin Bei sat outside and chatted. Of course, Qi Ming was mainly talking about the scene of the press conference last night.

While chatting happily, Lin Bei suddenly lit a cigarette, sighed and said, “Brother, Lin Nan and I are going back to our hometown.”

The smile froze on his face, Qi Ming looked at Lin Bei in disbelief, and it took a while to react, “Why do you suddenly want to go back?”

“Huh! It’s not sudden, is it? I’ve been thinking about it all this time.” Lin Bei handed Qi Ming a cigarette and watched him light it before continuing: “My mother is not in good health. She twisted her waist when she was doing farm work some time ago. Now she is lying in bed every day and raising it. My dad is the only one who is busy with that large area of the family. He is too tired.”

“Then you go back, when will you come back?” Qi Ming and Lin Bei and Lin Nan have known each other for a long time, almost fifteen years, so at first glance, when they heard that the other party was leaving, they felt quite uncomfortable.

“I guess I won’t be back.” Lin Bei is not very addicted to smoking. Just take a few sips. Most of the smoke was extinguished in the ashtray. He continued: “Although I want to pick them up to Beijing, they can’t let go of the land at home, and the two of us are together. Now it’s the same everywhere, just have a net. After thinking about it, I decided to go back.”

“That’s right.” Qi Ming sighed. Those of them who are floating outside are actually in the same situation. They may suddenly decide to leave one day. Those who can say hello to you like Lin Bei and Lin Nan have to say that the relationship is very good.

“When I met you two, you two were still in college, so time was so fast.” The eponymous cigarette was also finished, and the cigarette butt was snuffed out in the ashtray. The man slumped into the chair and wailed, “Oh, you are all gone one by one, and in the end I am the only one left. Lonely, lonely!”

Lin Bei chuckled, “Whoever is lonely, you don’t have to be lonely. Besides, we don’t change our numbers. We should contact each other. Come to Long Province when we have time. My brothers invite you to have fun.”

“It’s done.” Qi Ming slapped his thigh and said with a smile, “By the way, what about your studio? You two bought the land, did you sell it? Or do you plan to rent it out?”

“The possibility of selling is higher, after all, people are not here, so it’s a bit troublesome to rent out.” After Lin Bei finished speaking, he patted Qi Ming on the shoulder, “When it comes to this matter, I have to trouble my brother. You can help me find out if there are any buyers. Don’t go to the intermediary to save some trouble. If you have time, it’s best to do it within this month. It’s best to understand this too, otherwise the equipment and stuff will be wasted.”

“No problem, it’s wrapped in brother.” After that, Qi Ming and Lin Bei discussed pricing.

Soon, two hours passed, and Yan Lu had already finished recording the song over there.

Just looking at the expressions of the two people who came out one after the other, it was very weird.

Yan Lu was relatively normal, but Lin Nan’s expression was very bad after recording the song easily, and he pursed his lips without saying a word.

Qi Ming and Lin Bei were both inexplicably, looked at them, and then asked Lin Nan, “What’s the matter with you?”

Lin Nan glanced at Yan Lu, and then said, “I was pierced by one of his songs, and I don’t want to talk now.” Then, people went back to the room and never came out again.

As a result, the two of them set their sights on Yan Lu again.

Before the sensational impact of “Old Boy” and “We Still Have Fish Here”, they were naturally very excited about Yan Lu’s new song, and the most important thing was curiosity.

Qi Ming leaned forward, “Yan Lu, have you written a new song again? Have you finished recording yet?”

Yan Lu nodded. He also had a whim when recording the song, “Well, I wrote a song to say hello to everyone during the live broadcast.”

“Live broadcast? Qi Ming swallowed his saliva, and Lin Bei over there couldn’t help but leaned in. The two stared at Yan Lu with burning eyes, “What kind of new song is it? Let’s try it first?”

Yan Lu looked at the two of them and suddenly sold a Guanzi, “I’ll know when the time comes.”Okay, let’s go and find a house.”

“Ugh!” Qi Ming sighed, his curiosity was not satisfied, and he was very unhappy.

……

The remuneration for singing a movie theme song, the price fluctuation is relatively large, from a few hundred to a few thousand to tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands or even millions are possible, and there are even some movie theme songs that are directly sung without spending money. .

This is very related to the singer’s worth, the quality of the song, the strength of the director, whether the work can be played, and the investors.

It stands to reason that Ji Kangxu’s movies and the usual movie theme songs all go the way of singing with affection, and he rarely spends money to buy them.

After all, his work will definitely win awards, and naturally everyone will rush to grab this opportunity.

Including the previously selected Chen Chen, he is also in the relationship with the investor and does not spend money to sing. He said that he didn’t care about the qualifications of singing this theme song, but in fact he cared about it terribly, which was one of the reasons why Chen Chen was particularly annoyed.

But when it came to Yan Lu’s “Old Boy”, it was Ji Kangxu who took the initiative to give money.

Moreover, the money is still a lot, and it is directly half a million as soon as you speak.

At that time, Yan Lu was bombarded with this price. After all, in his last life on earth, he had never seen such a brain-pumping director who didn’t spend money.

And this also shows from another side that Ji Kangxu really loves this song badly.

Under Ji Kangxu’s decision of  “Yiyantang”, Yan Lu had no room for bargaining, so he had to accept the half a million.

Although the other party did not mention it, he took the initiative to send the copyright of the song to Ji Kangxu, but in exchange for the other party’s surprise.

When signing the copyright transfer agreement, Yan Lu even saw Ji Kangxu secretly wiping away tears. I have to say that this top director is really emotional and has developed lacrimal glands!

With half a million in his pocket, the first thing he naturally had to solve was the housing problem.

At least find a high-end residential area. Security is one aspect, and the sound insulation effect of the room is also a top priority.

After all, he will be a music person in the future, and it is inevitable that the family will often jingle, and it is always bad to disturb the neighbours.

Originally, he thought it would take a while to find a house, but he didn’t want to. After leaving the music studio, Qi Ming directly stopped a taxi and led him straight to his destination, Agarwood Garden.

“Agarwood Garden is right next to the morning Park. The environment is good, and all aspects meet your requirements.” When he arrived at the place, Qi Ming was like a full-time intermediary pointing out the country, introducing Yan Lu to the surrounding environment.

“Three stops to the east is Xinggefang. Going west for four stops to five stops, it is the Tianhe Xiangfu Villa Area. Within two stops to the south is Palm Tree International Apartment. Three or four stops to the north is Hongyun Village. Those are all places where celebrities and big names get together to buy real estate. For example, Director Ji, he lives in Hongyun Village, Chen Chen is in Tianhe Xiangfu, and Wang Feifei, the diva who supports you, lives in Palm Tree International Apartment.”

“The geographical location of Agarwood Garden is unique enough. It stands to reason that such a place should not be bad. Some celebrities have to patronize it anyway, but the problem is that according to legend, the feng shui of this place is not good, mainly because of the influence on feelings.”Obviously, this topic is what Qi Ming is most interested in, so when he said it, his eyes were shining, so he didn’t pay attention to Yan Li’s weird expression and continued.

“This place is really evil. Some people have specifically counted it. However, any couple who bought a house in Agarwood Garden and lived in it, one pair is counted as a pair, and they will definitely divorce. Those who have male and female friends will definitely break up within a year.” Qi Ming covered his mouth and sneered, “The most interesting thing is that it is said that a little fresh meat once bought a house here. Before he moved in, it was a peach blossom, but after he moved in, all the opposite sex avoided him like snakes and scorpions. Hahahaha…”

“Also, there is a rich second-generation daughter chasing stars. She can shake hands with her idols at the usual idol meetings, but since she moved here, she has always accidentally staggered with her idols at the meetings. Also……”

Qi Ming laughed while talking, his waist couldn’t straighten, and it took a while to find that Yan Li beside him hadn’t moved. He asked in surprise: “Isn’t it funny? Why don’t you laugh?”

But Yan Lu looked at him strangely and asked, “So, did you let me live here so that I can die alone?”
