Chapter Twenty-Eight: Oranges, Apples, and Melons
It's finally raining in Jinan Province.
After a downpour, the whole city is filled with fresh smells.
Best of all, the rain is over, but the sky is still cloudy and breezy. That cool feeling is comfortable for people who have been suffering in the sweltering heat for dozens of days, and every pore on the body is comfortable.
Qi Jie wore a moon-white suit and skirt, standing in the departure hall of Jinan West Railway Station, as bright as a lotus flower, people who came and went, even if they were just subconsciously, would look at her.
She had a smile on her face, a headset in one ear, and her eyes searched the crowd out of the station.
In the past five days, she has secretly recorded seven new songs!
Each one is a song that you can't buy in a video store!
Each one of them is a beautiful song!
Each one of them is a song that she has listened to over and over again, but she has never gotten tired of listening to it!
Although the accompaniment to those songs will always be the same guitar, and although the recording quality of those songs is far from the cassette tapes sold in video stores, they are now Qi Jie's favorite!
As long as she doesn't drive or go to class, she will put on headphones and listen to a paragraph!
Another wave of passengers poured out from the exit, Qi Jie stood on tiptoe slightly and looked in, and then, the smile on her face suddenly brightened.
She took off her headphones, raised her hands and shook them vigorously, "Lao Liao, Lao Liao, this way!"
In the crowd, Liao Liao had already seen her, and couldn't help jumping up and beckoning to her.
The passenger flow squirmed and scattered, Liao Liao finally came out, and the two of them screamed "ahhhh
"I miss you to death, concubine!"
"I ...... too You're going to die!"
"I said, you're too simple, aren't you? Why don't you pull up a banner or something, it says, 'Warmly welcome the famous singer Ms. Liao Liao to Jinan to inspect and guide the work'......"
"Keep dying!"
The two of them giggled, and after a while, Qi Jie noticed that Liao Liao was followed by a girl who looked a little thin, probably in her early twenties, who looked quite smart - carrying two bags in her hands.
"This is my Xiaomi, her name is Huang Wenjuan, you can call her Juanzi!" Liao Liao introduced.
The other two rolled their eyes in unison.
Qi Jie stretched out her hand to take the bag, but Huang Wenjuan insisted on refusing, the assistant, she didn't even carry the bag, how could she be embarrassed to take the salary?
So Qi Jie no longer insisted, and took the two of them to the station.
"Straight from the Northeast?"
"No, I stopped at Jinmen in the middle and went to meet someone. β
"By the way, didn't you say that you were going to meet a few big names to go on a song?
"It didn't work out. Siping didn't even see anyone, said that he went out to collect wind, the one in Jinmen, he didn't even enter the door, I was thin-skinned, I really couldn't pull my face to shout**. So...... Alas!"
"Are you going to make an appointment or are you going to fight pornography and illegal activities......?
"Don't mention it, don't mention it, my hope is pinned on you. However, it is said that this Cao Zhan from Jinan Mansion is even more difficult to deal with, and he is known for his strange personality and stinky temper!"
"I said, did you really come to Jinan to make an appointment? We also have big names in your circle in Jinan?"
"Yes, of course there is! As far as the Cao Zhan I just talked about, the lyrics and songs, everything is top-notch, if it weren't for his bad temper, he could have become one of the top people in this circle. It can be said that the songwriter I admire and admire the most in this circle is him. The style is changeable, and each style has a very outstanding masterpiece, either majestic or demonic, it is simply awesome! By the way, it is said that people still write movie scripts at every turn...... Oh, by the way, I don't know if you are familiar with his address, what is it called...... What is this place name?"
"I'm familiar with the old city and district, but it's a bit westerly, but it's still the center of the city, but it's ...... Isn't it, I've been there so many times, and it doesn't seem like it's a residential area?"
"Oh, that's not the address of his house, he opened a bookstore there, what's it called...... Not a bookstore. On the other side of the capital, I don't know how many people want to move him over, but he doesn't want to move his nest, he has to say that he is a businessman, and resolutely refuses to admit that he is a literati...... Is it enough?"
"We still have such a number one person here...... It's really rare!Okay, I'll drive you there! By the way, I've booked the hotel, it's just an ordinary hotel, don't dislike it...... Shall we go to the hotel or eat first?"
"Eat first, I'm dying of hunger. By the way, do you have any classes?
"Don't worry! In order to pick up your old man's car, I changed classes with other teachers in the first few days, and there are no classes today and tomorrow, and the next is Saturday and weekend...... For these four days, the little girl can provide full accompaniment!"
"Well, I'm very happy!"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The old sisters who had a good relationship with the same pack of sanitary napkins reunited after a long absence, and naturally they couldn't stop talking, Huang Wenjuan couldn't interject at all, so when she arrived at the hotel after eating, she consciously went to another room that was opened, and here Liao Liao and Qi Jie automatically entered the Shenkan mode.
This conversation is the middle of the night.
The next morning, the three of them gathered and went to have breakfast together, and then Qi Jie drove the car and took them straight to Jingsan Xiaowei Liu. In Liao Liao's words, it is important to get down to business first.
After three small latitudes and six pieces, there is really a bookstore called "Buwen Bookstore".
The faΓ§ade of the two rooms, the old city, the building is a bit old, but the cultural style is full.
Finding a place, the assistant and the driver were waiting in the car, and Liao Liao entered the door with a box of record samples that had been poured out a few days ago β which currently included five songs already produced on her new album and a previously released single.
Then, after five minutes, she came out again.
The expression was very dazed.
"Why did you come out so quickly? Hey, what's your expression?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Success, failure?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Speak, I said, have you seen the person you want to meet?"
After sitting in the car for a long time, Liao Liao gradually came back to his senses, but he was still a little unresponsive, and he just nodded when he heard the words.
"See?"
"See. β
"What do people say?"
"He said, 'Oh, got it, you go!'"
ββ¦β¦ What does this mean?"
"I don't know what he means!"
Qi Jie turned her head and glanced at Huang Wenjuan, both of them were at a loss.
Huang Wenjuan asked, "Then, sister, did you give your sample?"
As soon as Liao Liao raised his hand, cD was still there.
What is this called?
After thinking about it, she said, "You wait!", then opened the car door and got out of the car again.
Qi Jie looked back at Huang Wenjuan in the back row, pointed to Liao Liao who was entering the door, and asked, "What is she...... Is it okay, is it that you came all the way, what stimulated her?"
Huang Wenjuan shook her head firmly, "That's not possible, don't worry, sister, she can't be crazy if I'm crazy!"
"So what's going on? What's wrong with her?"
"Could it be...... Do you know that we have already eaten two closed doors all the way, and the scores of the people are very high, and they don't even want to say a word.
This time, it only took two minutes, and Liao Liao came down again.
"How?"
Liao Liao spread his hands, empty-handed, "I said this is my current song, if you have time, I hope you can listen to it and criticize more, he said, 'Oh, put it down!'." β
And then ...... You're coming out?"
"Yes, I'll just come out? What if I don't come out? People continue to read books and ignore me!"
"Then did he promise to give the song, or did he not agree?"
Liao Liao frowned tangledly, and after a moment of expression, he said: "You don't know, he sat there, holding the book and looking down, that kind of style, too calm, I finished what I was going to say, he 'oh', I don't know what to say next?"
Qi Jie subconsciously exchanged a look with Huang Wenjuan when she heard this, and the two of them showed a look of "hell" on their faces at the same time.
Qi Jie said, "Do you still have a time when you are being suppressed?"
Huang Wenjuan said: "Then you have to ask him whether he agreed or not, right?"
Liao Liao looked back at the signboard of the Buwen Bookstore, hesitated, and said, "Let's go, let's go back first, I'll go back to recuperate, and I'll come back tomorrow!"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Liao Liao seemed to be really suppressed by Cao Zhan.
On this day, when she walked down from the Lingyan Temple of Baotu Spring in Daming Lake, she had always looked like she was wandering out of the world, and it was not until the evening that she found a little bit of her spirit.
Qi Jie asked Huang Wenjuan in private, and Huang Wenjuan was not worried about Liao Liao, but expressed little hope for the results of the trip.
In fact, she didn't have much hope when she came out this time.
It turned out to be evil!
When I went back the next morning, the other party actually agreed to give a song!
Although they don't have it at the moment, they only promise to give it within a month, but after all, they have promised!
This is the first result of Liao Liao's trip!
And according to Liao Liao, after people went back, they listened to her sample, and actually praised Liao Liao's voice twice.
At this moment, Liao Liao immediately resurrected on the spot full of blood, and shouted that he wanted to go to Daming Lake, Baotu Spring, and Lingyan Temple!
The other two said they had been there yesterday, but she didn't say she hadn't!
So, go.
In the evening, Qi Jie took them to the ticket purchase point to buy a ticket to go south early the day after tomorrow, and then found a place to eat a little, and hurried back to the hotel to rest.
As a result, as soon as he returned to the house, Liao Liao still had the energy to take a bath, and Qi Jie was so tired that he was reluctant to get up from the bed.
Liao Liao came out of the shower, and Qi Jie finally struggled to get up and entered the bathroom.
Then Liao Liao first turned on the air conditioner, stretched out his hand and felt the cool breeze, then he fell on the bed like a paralyzed frame, turned his head, but found Qi Jie's walkman next to him.
Subconsciously, she took the Walkman and opened it, took out the tape and saw that it was a blank tape, and it seemed that she didn't know what she had recorded, so she suddenly lost interest - maybe it was **! Of course, she shouldn't listen eaves.
So she put her back as it was, and then a carp got up and got out of bed and boiled the water.
In the bathroom, there was a sound of water, and under the dim yellow light, a slender shadow was reflected on the frosted glass door.
Liao Liao shouted: "Hey, beauty, do you need someone to take a bath?
Whoa, no one paid attention to her.
She didn't give up, and went over to unscrew the door to put the probe in, "Hey, okay, I haven't seen you for two years, it's a lot bigger!"
"me!"
"Please, I'm complimenting you!"
"The ghost wants you to boast, you orange!"
"You're amazing, how much bigger can an apple be than an orange?"
"But this girl has evolved into a melon now!"
"Cut! It's less stinky and beautiful, and it's a big apple at best!"
"Die, die, don't watch me take a shower!"
