Chapter 18: The Gathering in the Circle
Night.
He Xiao dragged his tired body and got on the bus to the city and went straight back to Beijing.
The day's performance is over.
It's a lot more tiring than I thought.
He originally thought that he would earn money by playing soy sauce behind Lin Yunkai's buttocks, but he didn't think that Lin Yunkai was the one who paddled the water, that was called a chicken thief, just opened his mouth and didn't make a sound, to put it bluntly, it was fake singing, and the real lead singer was all left to him alone.
After this performance, my mouth was dry and dry.
However, tired is a little tired, but when he thinks of the hot 30,000 yuan in his pocket, He Xiao feels full of enthusiasm again.
Lin Yunkai asked him to stay in Jianxian County for one night before leaving, He Xiao thought about it, and he would get four or five hundred in one night, but he didn't agree, and he gritted his teeth and returned to Beijing.
He didn't want to leave the work of the tavern behind again, six hundred oceans a day.
After taking the high-speed train and transferring planes, I tossed for most of the night, and finally when it was just dawn, He Xiao returned to Yanjing's dormitory.
I slept on the bed without saying a word, and I slept so soundly that I didn't wake up until seven or eight o'clock in the evening.
went downstairs to eat some stir-fried vegetables, and He Xiao went to work.
Seeing He Xiao appear, Li Yang and the others were all startled.
Didn't you say that you were going to perform a business show far away? You're fast! Superman isn't as fast as you!
"Brother Xiao, you are convinced of my work efficiency!"
Hearing He Xiao leave overnight, Li Yang gave a thumbs up in admiration.
So dedicated.
No wonder He Xiao's career is getting higher and higher now, just this hard work, and he can't accept it.
Don't look at the usual He Xiao as if he was a little transparent, as soon as he worked, he completely changed as a person, too serious!
When changing shifts, Zhao Zhiming of a group glanced at He Xiao, seemed to hesitate, and finally said hello.
"Brother Xiao. ”
Just such a simple sentence made everyone stunned, Zhao Zhiming recognized He Xiao's status!
Zhao Zhiming also has bitterness in his heart, and now the gap between the two is getting bigger and bigger, and he sees the popularity of the three stores, and even Manager Liu doesn't dare to speak loudly to He Xiao now.
Although He Xiao had never troubled him, Zhao Zhiming was still stunned in his heart, and after weighing it again, he showed goodwill with He Xiao.
After all, he is not the only lead singer in the store now, Brother Chen's leg injury is almost healed, and it is estimated that he will be discharged from the hospital in three or five days.
If you want to say that Brother Chen is also a person, he can be knocked into the hospital when he goes out to buy a pack of cigarettes.
A few days ago, he called Manager Liu to prepare to come back to work, but when he heard that He Xiao had become the lead singer, or the kind of lead singer that the store manager couldn't afford to offend, he was stunned.
It's only been a few months since I left the store, and how did it come to this?
In short, Brother Chen was very disappointed when he learned that he was not the lead singer, he knew that He Xiao had been named by Sister Ya and could not afford to offend, so he had long set his sights on Zhao Zhiming, a group of bands.
This is also one of the reasons why Zhao Zhiming is uncomfortable, his position is not so safe!
When there is pressure, there is motivation.
Zhao Zhiming put away a lot of arrogance in the past two days, was polite to everyone, and went to work seriously.
After Zhao Zhiming's episode, He Xiao returned to the long-lost small stage.
He performed outside for a day, and the audience had to be thousands of people, and it was really a little uncomfortable to return to the small stage of this tavern from that kind of big scene.
He Xiao finally understood the feelings of an out-of-fashion superstar like Lin Yunkai, from being sought after by tens of thousands of people to being cared for by no one, the gap is really big!
Yanjing City at night, drunk lantern riddles.
The fashionable young men and women who came out to look for the carnival were drinking in the audience while listening to He Xiao singing those love songs that were moaning without illness, He Xiao was about to vomit singing, but they ate this set very much, as if they had many stories.
"Singing love songs every day, who can stand this. ”
At halftime, He Xiao got off the stage and ate two dishes of side dishes, secretly pouring bitter water in his heart.
Eighty percent of the customers who order songs are sad songs.
No way, people are emotional animals, so they like to listen to these things that make them sad, and this type of song is too popular.
But the singer can't bear it, love love love all day long, you will love a big hammer, you will love.
He Xiao has no choice now, so he can only passively accept it, but he secretly made up his mind in his heart that after his official debut, he must find a way to change this atmosphere, and there can only be one or two emotional songs in his album, and we won't sing more.
......
Time flies.
In a flash, more than half a month has passed.
He Xiao has less and less time to work in the store, and he is always pulled out by Lin Yunkai to perform commercially.
In just 20 days, they visited six cities, only two of which were prefecture-level cities, and the others were county seats.
To be honest, the performance in the county is more spectacular than the prefecture-level city, probably because the place is small, most people have never seen a star, and all the scenes are always in the dark.
Although everyone is running for Lin Yunkai's name, the main output of the performance is He Xiao, Lin Yunkai paddled the whole process, so after each performance, the audience's impression of Lin Yunkai was vague, but the clean-looking boy was extremely profound.
He Xiao's fame gradually spread at the grassroots level.
Many people know that there is such a young man who follows Lin Yunkai and sings very well.
He is too showy, what he sings like, it is obviously Lin Yunkai's commercial performance program, but he has become the protagonist, and everyone has to shout hello.
That voice is simply born to sing!
He Xiao gradually understood Lin Yunkai's intentions, and he was very grateful.
This is his mentor.
In the entertainment industry, it is difficult to stand alone, and it is really difficult to get ahead on your own.
With an old man, the debut will be much smoother.
He Xiao has no company, no packaging team, no online public relations.
But his popularity is not much lower than the idols that big companies spend a lot of money on.
When other idol trainees were training in the company, he had already come out and started to train himself.
Following Lin Yunkai, an old fritter in the entertainment industry, He Xiao is either walking in the acupoint every day, or on the way to the acupoint.
For most of the month, there are only less than ten days of singing in the tavern, and the rest are basically in a hurry and receiving commercial performances.
He has become a frequent passenger on airplanes and high-speed rail stations, and when he opens the booking software, the number of times this month has been connected, day by day.
The popularity is also getting higher day by day, and there is an increase every day.
In the end, He Xiao quit his job at Xing Yage, and his unstable work state is indeed no longer suitable for resident singing.
Manager Liu is actually very reluctant to let He Xiao leave, he is now popular, he is the pillar of the third store, and the guests are all coming to see him.
But everyone has their own ambitions, He Xiao has a better development prospect, and Manager Liu can't force the other party to stay.
That night, He Xiao invited all the employees of Xing Yage to the restaurant, including a group of people in the band, which was regarded as saying goodbye to He Xiao.
As soon as He Xiao left, Zhao Zhiming's heart put down the big stone in his heart, and congratulated He Xiao with a wine glass, but he didn't know that He Xiao had never regarded him as an opponent.
Zhao Zhiming is still intriguing in this small tavern, but He Xiao has already put his heart in the entertainment industry, and he wants to make his debut!
Xu Yuan, the thin and black old man, was crying a lot, he and He Xiao had the best relationship, but at this time, he could only tearfully wish this brother to go higher and higher towards his great future.
Brother Chen, who had just been discharged from the hospital not long ago, was undoubtedly the happiest, he returned to Xing Yage the day before yesterday to officially go to work, taking over He Xiao's previous position as a drummer, and he felt bitter, but he didn't expect that he would become the lead singer again after only one night's work.
At the wine table, he cried on the spot and had a big snot bubbling, and gave He Xiao a toast, and he almost knelt down and called his father.
He Xiao is not that thick-skinned person, and he is quite embarrassed.
After toasting one after another, He Xiao drank at least half a box of beer, half a catty of white, and other messy foreign wines He Xiao didn't know how much he drank, until he looked over at the last glance, on the wine table and on the ground, he was left standing alone.
None of the people in Xing Accord thought that this guy, who had always been a little transparent, would drink so well.
Usually when there are parties in the store, his status is too low, and no one pays attention to him.
As soon as I drank it today, I realized that this guy's alcohol consumption was really perverted.
This has to be given by He Xiao's grandfather, his grandfather is an old wine cup, when He Xiao was three or five years old, he poured wine into his mouth, and he was cultivated at a young age.
Coming out of the hotel, He Xiao blew the night breeze and felt a lot sober.
He looked up and looked at the brightly lit Yanjing, and he didn't know if it was worth it for his hard work, and could he really enter that circle?
There is no company to sign him, no one knows about him, how should he debut?
Dreams, you're so far away.
"Toot, toot......"
The phone rang.
He Xiao had already guessed who it was.
The only one who could call him late at night was Lin Yunkai, the old guy.
"Mr. Lin, do you have a commercial performance again?"
"Haha, you're very smart, but you really guessed wrong this time, it's not a commercial performance, it's a party in our circle, and there will be a lot of veterans in the music world, do you want to come and join in the fun?"
Lin Yuankai smiled heartily.
But in He Xiao's ears, it made his heart skip a beat.
Gatherings within circles?
