After Li Mu returned to Haizhou, the theoretical test of this group of students of Jin'an Driving School began.

Fortunately, Li Mu brought the subject when he returned to the countryside, plus there were many years of actual driving experience, so his theory test was quite smooth, but in 2001, Haizhou's driving school test was still very backward, and there was no computer test room for the theory test, all of which were closed-book written tests, and it took two to three days to know the test results after the test.

After Li Mu finished the theory test, he immediately made a trapeze, rushed to Jinling to take a plane to Wencheng, rushed to the headquarters of Metersbonwe on the same day to sign a contract, and paid a cooperation deposit of tens of thousands of yuan, and then took a plane back to Jinling that night.

For the project of Eting, Li Mu once asked Ye Tianming to help him find a job, but Li Mu never took the time to come over and have a look, so he was ready to take this opportunity to stay in Jinling for a day and solve this matter.

The four people who had a simple plan went to the airport to pick up Li Mu that night, and then took Li Mu to a high-end restaurant, ate and drink, and picked him up.

Zhang Kexuan told Li Mu: "The video of the preliminary round has been broadcast, first broadcast once on satellite TV, rebroadcast once, and then rebroadcast twice on Channel 2. ”

Li Mu smiled and asked, "How do you feel after the broadcast?"

"Oops!" Zhang Kexuan said excitedly: "Wherever you go, you will be recognized by the young girl, I didn't dare to take you to the food stall last time." ”

Li Mu nodded, looked at the other three, and asked, "How do you feel?"

The other three said that there was nothing special, because those young girls only had Zhang Kexuan in their eyes.

Between the words, there is a somewhat envious sourness.

Li Mu was worried that the other three would slowly have a problem with this, so he pretended to be casual and said: "If the band wants to become popular, it must erect a core figure in the early stage, and when the first core character gains a firm foothold in the market, it can win the second core character." ”

Speaking, Li Mu said: "Just like Beyond, the earliest core character is Huang Jiaju alone, but after the image of Huang Jiaju's singing core was erected, Huang Guanzhong, as the lead guitarist, was shaped as the core of the performance. ”

When the four of them heard this, they all nodded in agreement.

Zhang Kexuan knew the real purpose of Li Mu's words, this was actually what he was worried about recently, everyone was a good buddy, and then they played the band together, and now they became popular all of a sudden, and the other three were not interested, and he was also worried that the three of them had a gap in their hearts, but as a person with vested interests, this kind of thing is really not suitable to say.

However, Li Mu said it appropriately, and also used Beyond, a well-known band in China, as an analogy, and the other three members of the band seemed to understand at once.

Zhang Kexuan couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, this young man, who was just eighteen years old, seemed to see everything very thoroughly, and was able to point out the key to the problem that no one wanted to mention at a critical moment, which was really wonderful.

Ye Tianming said with a smile at this time: "I don't care about this, anyway, the drummer is generally the one who stands the furthest in the band, and it is difficult to get attention." ”

Li Mu shook his head: "This is not right, at your current stage, you are not a star at all, the audience will only have two intuitive feelings after watching TV and online publicity: whether the song is good or not, whether the person is good or not, but as your exposure becomes more and more in the future, the audience will evolve into your fans and admirers, and they will try to know more about you." ”

"For example, they'll think that the simple plan is as cool as a guitarist and a cool drummer besides the lead singer, and that's the time for you to have a live show in the future, Kexuan can leave more opportunities for you to show. ”

"For example, when he's done singing the chorus and needs to play solo guitar, Kexuan can stand back, and in the summer you can go to the front of the stage and use your guitar, your solo, and your body in front of you to get the audience's attention, and the same applies to the bass player and drummer. ”

"I understand!" Ye Tianming exclaimed happily: "This is also why, in Beyond's concert, when he plays solo, he will go to the front, or all the lights will be directed at him, and even, they will arrange for Huang Jiaqiang to play a super long bass solo in "Cold Rainy Night", and even Ye Shirong will have a few minutes of solo time. ”

Li Mu nodded: "When a band develops to the later stage, the best result is naturally that everyone becomes famous and has their own fan base, so as to enhance the influence of the entire band, and in the future, I will also give the three of you more opportunities to show, such as arranging better solos, arranging you to make more perfect harmonies or solo, but this must be done after Kexuan's core position is consolidated." ”

The three of them agreed, for them, there must be a gap, but the three of them themselves don't know how big the biggest gap is that they can accept, but with Li Mu's words, the three of them are a lot more relaxed, after all, Li Mu's words prove that the three of them will not be really ignored.

Zhang Kexuan also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said to Li Mu: "We will have a rematch at eight o'clock in the evening the day after tomorrow, eight into one, only the champion can go to Yanjing, such a critical game, you must come to the scene." ”

Li Mu didn't rush to agree, but asked: "How did you rehearse the song "Sunflower"?"

"It's good. The four of them almost said in unison: "We've been practicing this song lately." ”

Li Mu said: "I don't necessarily have time the day after tomorrow, so let's go directly to your rehearsal room later, and see how you rehearse first, and in addition, where is the resume you found for me?

Ye Tianming said: "No problem, you can go at any time." ”

Li Mu nodded: "To be honest, I still have a lot of things to do in Haizhou, and I have to go back tomorrow evening." ”

When Ye Tianming heard this, he hurriedly said: "By the way, one of my father's former subordinates is now doing business in Haizhou, and he came to Jinling yesterday to do some business, and he was scheduled to go back tomorrow morning, I asked him to wait for you, and you don't take the train at night, let's go with his car." ”

Li Mu said: "It's not appropriate, don't delay other people's business, you let the family go back in the morning, and I'll take the train back in the evening." ”

Ye Tianming hurriedly said: "Then how can you do it, you run for the four of us, how can you take the train back to Haizhou, that person is one of my brothers, and the relationship is very good, if you don't want to go back with his car, then I will drive you, choose one of the two." ”

Li Mu still wanted to refuse, but Zhang Kexuan also said at this time: "Yes, Xiaomu, or I'll send you." ”

Li Mu didn't insist anymore, turned his head and said to Ye Tianming: "Then it's troublesome for your brother." ”

"Little things, I'll give him a call. ”

Li Mu nodded, and received a text message on his mobile phone at this time: "Your little aunt agreed." ”

It was sent by Li's mother, Li Mu signed the contract today, and called her mother before she got on the plane and came back, telling her that the contract was completed, and asked her to talk to her aunt, and now it seems that there is no problem with her aunt.

I have to go back to arrange it quickly, either the little mother and the little aunt go to the training together, or go with the three of my father, in short, this matter must be implemented quickly.

So, Li Mu drank up half a glass of beer in the wine glass, and said to the four of them: "Everyone has a glass of wine, let's not drink more tonight, this is the end, hurry up and eat a full stomach and go to your rehearsal room, I still have a lot of things to do tomorrow, I don't know if I can come the day after tomorrow, but I must go back to Haizhou tomorrow night." ”

As soon as the four of them heard this, they immediately said no more, and after quickly filling their stomachs, they checked out and went to their rehearsal room, which was previously called Jinling Noise Control, but now it has been renamed into a simple plan.

In the rehearsal room, Li Mu looked at the resumes that the four of them helped him find, while listening to them rehearse "Sunflower", the difficulty of playing and singing this song is not too big, Zhang Kexuan has also begun to try to interpret this song with his own feelings after his last reminder, this is an improvement, and the four of them have indeed rehearsed hard, sang three times in a row, and did not make any mistakes.

After three times, Li Mu gave them a thumbs up: "Maintain this level of competition, it's no problem to go to Yanjing!"

As he spoke, he took out four resumes and said, "I don't think these four people are bad, so I'll make an appointment tomorrow." ”

The four people selected by Li Mu were all from Nansu Province, and one of them had a resume named Kong Lingyu that impressed him deeply.

Kong Lingyu is a native of Jinling City, graduated from Yenching University of Science and Technology in 1998, and joined Huaxia Yahoo in early 2000 as a web technology developer, which can be described as one of the earliest portals in China, and now it is still in full swing, but Kong Lingyu resigned from Yahoo at the end of March this year and returned to Jinling.

The resume said that after Kong Lingyu returned to Jinling, he started his own business and made a navigation website that imitated hao123 website, and now it is in an embarrassing stage where there is no revenue but still needs continuous investment, Kong Lingyu hopes to find a job in web technology development to support his small website.

can indicate on his resume that he is also starting a business, Li Mu doesn't know whether to say that he is sincere or that he lacks heart, but the profession he is engaged in and his professional skills are simply a relief to Li Mu.
