At night.

Baiyun District, Shiyin's residence.

Shi Yin was wearing a cute pink pajamas, lying on the bed, and talking to his sister on the phone.

"Xiaoxue, you'll graduate next year, right?" Shi Yin asked.

Shi Yin's voice fell, and Shi Xue's voice came from the other end of the phone, and she replied: "Sister, I still have a year of internship, and I will only intern next year, and I will officially graduate the year after tomorrow." ”

After hearing this, Shi Yin said, "Oh, that's it, then do you plan to study abroad after graduation?"

Shi Xue thought for a while, and then said, "I don't have this plan for the time being, but my parents seem to want me to study abroad and continue to study." ”

At this time, Shi Xue thought of something, so she asked, "Sister, is my friend's brother still in your company?"

The friend Shi Xue said was a classmate she knew when she was in college, named Lu Yaoyao, and she had a very good relationship, the two were like sisters, and Lu Yaoyao happened to be Lu Chen's own sister.

A long time ago, Shi Xue knew that Lu Yaoyao's brother worked in her sister's company, and she also reminded Shi Yin to help take care of Lu Chen.

Lu Chen's family is not particularly wealthy, Lu Yaoyao's school tuition is still Lu Chen's brother, Shi Xue in order to help her best friend, let Shi Yin give Lu Chen a better treatment, of course, this is actually just Shi Xue's fantasy.

Lu Chen's family is not poor, the poor is just Lu Chen, Lu Chen came to Jiangnan City after graduating from college, his family wanted him to study abroad, but he refused, so his father was ruthless and directly cut off his living expenses and let him fend for himself in this city.

In fact, Lu Chen is also so old, he can survive in this city without money from his family.

It's just that Shi Xue doesn't know this, Lu Yaoyao is relatively low-key at school, and the food she eats in life seems to be very frugal, so Shi Xue thinks that their family is very poor, and even made up the plot of Lu Chen, who is an older brother, working away from his hometown in order to earn tuition for his sister.

Hearing her sister mention Lu Chen, Shi Yin suddenly became angry, and she said angrily: "Don't mention him to me, this guy is a thorn in the company, if you hadn't said that I should take care of him, I'm afraid I would have fired him a long time ago." ”

Shi Xue asked suspiciously, "It's so serious, what did he do?"

Shi Yin gritted his teeth, and then said, "This guy is talking bad about me behind his back!"

Shi Yin was really embarrassed to say that Lu Chen called her wife in front of everyone, so he could only say that he said bad things about himself, in fact, calling her wife in front of everyone was worse than saying bad things about her behind her back.

Shi Xue said: "It turns out that you just said bad things, then sister, you just look at him and punish him, just give a warning." ”

"Well, I know, that's it for today, I'm going to rest early, and I'm going to wake up early tomorrow morning. Shi Yin said.

"Okay, I'll call you when I'm free. ”

The two sisters then hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Shi Yin put the phone on the bedside table, then picked up the pillow and smashed it on the bed.

Shi Yin said while smashing:

"I'll kill you bastard!

Shi Yin used the pillow as Lu Chen, so as to vent the dissatisfaction in his heart.

At this time, Tong Huan opened the door and came in, and saw Shi Yin smashing the pillow, Tong Huan said with a smile: "Sister Shi Yin, don't you just dismiss Lu Chen, lest you get angry when you see this guy." ”

Shi Yin said: "This guy is the brother of my sister's good friend, and my sister also asked me to take care of it a little, so it's not good to be fired like this." ”

Tong Huan said: "You directly relay what Lu Chen said to your sister, I believe she will definitely be able to understand." ”

Shi Yin thought for a while, and then said: "Forget it, there are people who say bad things about the boss behind their backs in that company, let them say it." ”

Shi Yin tossed the pillow aside, no longer thinking about it.

Early the next morning, Lu Chen and Shi Yin went to Qingshan City and started a three-day commercial performance.

In fact, the reason why Tianyin's choir or band has to take Lu Chen to perform there is actually another reason, that is, because Lu Chen can use any instrument, although it is not particularly good, but he can use it, he can be used as a substitute, in case he encounters that member is sick and can't go, he can go up, Lu Chen has had many opportunities to appear in the past, which is why he has a higher salary than other people in the music workshop.

After the choir performed in Qingshan City, Shi Yin and the others returned to Jiangnan City, and after returning, Lu Chen immediately went to a recording studio called Le Yi.

This studio was opened by his old classmate Qin Yi, Qin Yi has a band, and they usually go out to hold concerts, and then release songs, and their lives are relatively leisurely.

Qin Yi's recording studio occasionally assists other singers in recording songs, and as for the price, it is basically the market price, which is a small amount of money.

After seeing Lu Chen come to his studio, Qin Yi was very puzzled, and he asked, "Lu Chen, you guy hasn't come to me for more than half a year, why did you suddenly think of coming to me today?"

Although the two of them are in the same city, they have rarely seen each other since graduating from college, after all, they each have their own things to do.

Still, they still occasionally find time to get together for a drink or something.

After hearing Qin Yi's words, Lu Chen said with a smile: "How can it be so long, at most two months." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Chen took out the first song he wrote from his pocket and handed it to Qin Yi.

Qin Yi took the song and asked, "What is this?"

Lu Chen replied: "The song I wrote, I am going to record the song, you see how this song is." ”

Hearing this, Qin Yi immediately became very interested in the paper in his hand, he immediately opened the paper, looked at the lyrics first, and then said, "Well, the lyrics are not bad." ”

Afterwards, Qin Yi looked at the song again and found that the song was also very good, he looked at it while looking for the rhythm, and let the accompaniment sound echo in his mind.

Qin Yi said: "There's a guitar over there, how about trying to play and sing first?"

"Good. Lu Chen agreed.

Then, Qin Yi walked to the place where the guitar was placed.

"Then again, you kid finally came to his senses, and he actually knew that he had written songs, and you didn't believe it when I told you not to leave the band. ”

Qin Yi himself is very optimistic about Lu Chen's talent in music, they formed a band when they were in school, but it was best for Lu Chen to leave the band for some reason, according to Lu Chen, it was too hard, when they went out to hold concerts, they often had to sing late, and they had to run around, Lu Chen didn't like this kind of life.

Lu Chen still prefers the kind of life in Tianyin, usually maintains the musical instrument, and then fishes all day long, and can get a high salary.

Lu Chen said with a smile at this time: "Even if I don't quit the band, the band won't disband in the end, after graduating from college, everyone has to find their own things to do, how many people can always stick to their own interests." ”

Qin Yi sighed and said, "Alas, that's right, not everyone can turn hobbies into jobs. ”

Speaking of this, Qin Yi picked up the guitar and handed it to Lu Chen, and then continued: "Sing, let me see if your level has regressed, you were the lead singer of our band at the beginning." ”

Lu Chen smiled, took the guitar, found a stool to sit down, and then began to play.

At first, instead of playing the tune of his song right away, he played something else, so that he could familiarize himself with the instrument and see if the pitch was accurate.

After tuning, Lu Chen immediately played the tune he had written, and after a while, his singing voice sounded in Qin Yi's office.

At first I just believed

The great thing is the feelings

Finally I couldn't see clearly

It is fate that is strong

You still choose to go back

He pierces your heart

But you won't wake up

You say that love is a dream

I can only repay you for the happiness I borrowed from you

If you want to stay, you can't stay is the loneliest

didn't finish speaking, only the gentleness was left with the song

A second before a heartbreak

Embracing each other vigorously and silently

Heartbeat to send you bitter songs

......

Lu Chen didn't finish the song, and he stopped halfway through the song.

At this moment, Qin Yi came back to his senses from his trance, and he said with a smile: "Look, I'll just say that you have talent, this song is so good, and it must be very popular after it is released." ”

Lu Chen smiled, it hasn't been released yet, who is right, let's record it first.

"Okay, I'll have the accompaniment recorded right away. ”

The relationship between the two was good, Qin Yi didn't want to collect Lu Chen's money at all, and he didn't even talk about the price, so he asked his studio partner to record the accompaniment.

Of course, Lu Chen is not the kind of person who takes advantage of a small advantage, when the people in the studio recorded the accompaniment, Lu Chen asked: "Lao Qin, how much does it cost to record this accompaniment plus promotion?"

Qin Yi said: "Forget it, it's just a song, it's free." ”

After hearing this, Lu Chen immediately said: "This is not good, it is not easy for your people, you also have to eat, how can you do it for free." ”

Lu Chen's psychology actually thinks that he still has a lot of songs to record, so he can't be free every time.

Qin Yi thought for a while, and then said, "Okay, give a market price, three thousand yuan to pack." ”

Qin Yi also understood a truth, brother, settle accounts, he guessed that Lu Chen was afraid that they would have a conflict over money, so he simply said the lowest price in the market.

Lu Chen said with a smile: "If I record a new song in large quantities that day, you will have to give me a discount at that time." ”

Qin Yi said with a smile: "Discount, I will definitely give you a discount." ”

After about two hours, Lu Chen's first song "Leaving Song" was recorded, and after the recording of the new song was completed, Lu Chen registered himself a stage name called Qingchen, and then prepared to release it on all platforms at eight o'clock on Saturday night.

After returning home from Qin Yi, Lu Chen listened to the songs he sang several times, and the more he listened to them, the more he felt good, and he began to admire himself, he was able to write such a beautiful song.

At this moment, in a coffee shop, Shi Yin is discussing with the people of Brilliant Culture about the casting of the leading actor of a certain movie.

"Shiyin, didn't I say it a long time ago, as long as you are willing to be with me, we will give you as many resources as your company wants. Zhou Yunpeng said with a lewd smile.

After seeing Zhou Yunpeng's smile, Shi Yin showed a hint of disgust, and she said coldly: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid that I won't live long with people like you." ”

Zhou Yunpeng asked suspiciously, "What does this mean?"

Shi Yin replied: "As far as I know, you have an unclear relationship with most of the female artists in the entertainment industry, I estimate that you have been infected a long time ago and will not live long." ”

After hearing this, Zhou Yunpeng was stunned, and then he said with a smile: "Shi Yin, it's not good for you to curse me like this, and I'm just good friends with those female artists, if you don't like them, I can cut off all contact with them immediately, who makes me like you." ”

Shi Yin said directly: "Do you have any contact with them, it has nothing to do with me, I just want to know, do you need our Tianyin actors in this movie." ”

Zhou Yunpeng took a sip of coffee, and then said slowly: "Shiyin, you also know that now the brilliant culture is under my father's control, I am just a helper, and I have no right to decide the starring role of a movie." ”

"However, if you were his daughter-in-law, then my dad would definitely listen to me. ”

Seeing that Zhou Yunpeng was still unwilling, Shi Yin stood up directly, and then said to Tong Huan: "Huanhuan, let's go." ”

Seeing that Shiyin was leaving, Zhou Yunpeng said unhurriedly and slowly: "Shiyin, you have to think clearly, although I know that your family has money and is not short of money, but if you want to develop your own company, you must be inseparable from the cooperation with Brilliant, in the entertainment industry, Brilliant is in an absolute monopoly position." ”

"You have raised so many artists, but you don't have any high-quality resources, and you give them such good treatment, sooner or later your company will not be able to sustain itself. ”

Shi Yin said coldly: "You don't have to worry about it. ”

After speaking, Shi Yin and Tong Huan left.

Seeing her leaving, Zhou Yunpeng said indifferently: "Sooner or later, you will come to me again." ”

On the way back, Tong Huan said to Shi Yin: "Sister Shi Yin, we don't have to cooperate with Brilliant, and there are a lot of resources on several other film and television platforms. ”

After hearing this, Shi Yin replied: "Cooperating with those film and television platforms, our artists may be squeezed even worse." ”

Usually, it is the film and television company that looks for the artist, and then puts the filmed drama on the film and television platform, and the artist only needs to take money from the film and television company.

But now a monopoly of film and television broadcasting platforms has been formed, and film and television platforms find film and television companies to make a drama, and they have to sign a sharing contract with the artist to share half of the salary.

Tong Huan continued: "Sister Shiyin, then let's just make our own film and television dramas." ”

Hearing this, Shi Yin sighed again, and then said: "We didn't even recover the cost of the TV series we filmed last time, and now I don't have any money, so I can't continue to spend money lavishly." ”

"Nowadays, those excellent screenwriters and directors are basically monopolized by big film and television companies, and it is too difficult for us to make a good drama. ”

After Shi Yin entered this industry, she could be regarded as seeing the current situation of the entire entertainment industry clearly, but she was a little unwilling, after all, her parents gave her so much money, but she didn't achieve anything.

With a heavy heart, in the end, Shiyin and Tong Huan returned to their place of residence and continued to think about what Tianyin Company should do next.

Whether to transform into mass production of Internet celebrities, or continue to insist on cultivating artists, this is a question worth thinking about for a long time.
