Chapter 19: The Villa

Li Qian randomly found a tea house on the street that didn't look bad and walked in, listening to songs with headphones on, while turning his head from time to time to pay attention to the movement at the door.

About half an hour later, Li Jinlong pushed the door and walked in.

Li Qian took off his headphones, stood up with a smile and waved at him.

Li Jinlong strode over, and when he saw Li Qian stretching out his hand, he quickly stretched out both hands, grabbed Li Qian's hand, shook it vigorously, and said directly: "Qian Shao, I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm here for you." ”

Li Qian smiled, shook the other party's hand, and said, "Sit down and say." ”

The two sat down separately, the waiter came over, Li Qian asked Li Jinlong's taste, and then ordered a pot of cooked pu, and then looked at Li Jinlong with a smile and asked: "Isn't it a little too impulsive?" After all, Hua Ge is a big company, and you are the producer of the Five Elements, and the future is very bright, my studio is just preparing, to be honest, you are here to help me keep an eye on the decoration, for you, it is too condescending." ”

Li Jinlong smiled when he heard this, and said calmly: "Hua Ge just adjusted my salary not long ago, and now I can start to get album dividends, although it is the size of sesame grains, but after all, it is also a dividend, isn't it? So, hehe, if you want to be serious, if you can get this step in Hua Ge, in terms of my own ability, I should really be content, and I shouldn't think about changing jobs, resigning, etc." But ......"

Just as the waiter came to serve tea, he paused, and it wasn't until the waiter poured a cup of tea for each of them and walked away that he continued: "However, I know myself, I was ignorant when I was young, and I thought I was very talented, but after being mixed in the circle for so many years, especially after seeing your humble talent, I completely understood that I am a person, if you want to say that musical attainments, I really can't talk about how high it is, so." Even if you continue to be a producer, that is, a corpse vegetarian meal, it won't make any achievements, but on the contrary. I feel like I'm okay with some of my day-to-day tasks. ”

"You ask me to pick the general, take ideas, and do the direction, I can't do it, at least it's mediocre, and I can't do it brilliantly. But whether it's taking care of daily affairs, making albums, running errands and other trivial tasks, I am a little bit good at it, and I have a little bit of connections in the circle. So I thought that the most suitable position for me might be to find a genius like Qian Shao and give you a hand. To put it bluntly, I now feel that my position should be for people to be deputies. Hehe. It just so happened that your studio was about to open, so I wondered if I could come over and give you something. ”

"With you, the future of the studio will definitely be a long way, my little bit of caution, I can't hide it from you, my advantage over others is that I knew you at an early age, so I came over with a shy face to occupy a seat first, hoping to follow you to eat and drink spicy food and spicy food in the future. We've known each other for a while. I've dealt with it a few times, and I can't guarantee anything else, I'll promise that as long as it's the work you give me, I'll promise a hundred intentions!"

Speaking of which. He didn't drink tea either, he just looked at Li Qian.

Li Qian put down the teacup, smiled, and said, "My studio hasn't opened yet, so I'll dig up the general of Hua Ge first...... Isn't it going to look a little aggressive?"

As soon as he said this, a look of disappointment suddenly flashed on Li Jinlong's face. Soon, though. He still showed a smile and laughed at himself: "Qian Shao said that he was laughing, I have been doing it for more than ten years, and I have just become a second-level producer, or I am blessed by Qian Shao, and I took advantage of the big sales of the album "Sister Sister Stand Up", what kind of general...... It's a joke. ”

Li Qian smiled, his fingers unconsciously swaying the teacup, and just when Li Jinlong's heart was getting heavier and heavier, he suddenly asked, "Resigned?"

Li Jinlong was stunned for a moment, and quickly nodded, "I have already resigned." ”

Li Qian nodded, swayed the teacup for a moment, and then said, "Then come!"

Li Jinlong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then a look of surprise instantly appeared on his face, and he looked at Li Qian in surprise.

But at this time, Li Qian thought for a while and said: "As for my studio, although the place was also bought, it is not too small, but at the beginning, I was not going to do much, so in this way, the administrative affairs will be in charge of my agent Sister Qi, and the music affairs will be led by you, do you think it will work?"

When Li Jinlong heard this, he immediately nodded, looking excited, "Thank you for your trust, don't worry, I'm still the same sentence, I can put it aside, I am absolutely 100% attentive." Ten points of strength, no nine!"

Li Qian smiled, nodded and said "Okay", and then asked, "You have a non-compete agreement with Hua Ge, right?"

Li Jinlong nodded when he heard this, and said helplessly: "One year! Within one year, you are not allowed to engage in any work in music." ”

Li Qian nodded.

In fact, non-compete agreements are not only in the music industry, but also exist in many industries, especially those with strong technical expertise. The so-called non-compete agreement, the general stipulation, is that if you resign or change jobs before the work agreement is completed, then in order to prevent you from jumping to the side of the opponent to attack yourself in turn, and at the same time to avoid divulging some trade secrets, the company will stipulate in the agreement that you will not be employed by other similar companies or even engaged in work in the same industry for a certain period of time after leaving the company.

After thinking about it, Li Qian said: "In this case, anyway, you just resigned, take a rest at home first, and at the same time, walk around the circle and help me find a few people." Like a singer with good qualifications, or a musician with a good level or something, well, especially arrangers, I know that there are a lot of underground arrangers in this circle, all of whom have not signed a contract with any company, and they usually don't get any big jobs, they all rely on taking some second-hand casual jobs from record companies, to be honest, they do a lot, but they don't make much money, you can help me pay attention to it, contact a few good levels. Well, especially the film and television soundtracks. ”

Hearing the previous ones, Li Jinlong just nodded with bright eyes, but when he heard the end, he couldn't help but widen his eyes instantly, "Film and television soundtrack?

Li Qian smiled and said lightly: "I'm not sure, I should have some hope when I look at it, so let's prepare in advance." ”

Li Jinlong nodded when he heard this, and his heart suddenly became agitated.

Although he didn't have much contact, he still had some understanding of Li Qian, and he knew that he didn't look at Li Qian's youth. But he is very good at doing things, and if he is not very sure, he probably won't mention it. Since he mentioned it, it basically means that he has at least the certainty of success.

So he said a little excitedly: "Qian Shao, don't worry. I've been in this circle for so many years, it's hard to say anything else, I know a lot of musicians and arrangers, and I promise to pick a few levels for you to see!"

Li Qian nodded, and then specially reminded: "Although there is a non-compete agreement. But don't be too relaxed, you won't be idle for long. After a while, I will consider taking over the production of the next album of Wuxing Wusu, which can be regarded as the opening work of the studio, and at that time, I guess your business will be mentioned in passing. ”

After a pause, he affirmed: "It's just one month, and it's just two months." ”

This is equivalent to giving a positive answer, and within two months, Li Jinlong can officially go to work in Li Qian's studio. Of course. Before that, he needed to get a few singers, musicians and arrangers.

But for Li Jinlong, this is already the best result.

As long as he thinks of the jaw-dropping brilliant achievements created by Li Qian in the past year, Li Jinlong is full of confidence in his prospects after joining Li Qian's studio.

So, he didn't care about the tea being cold, and after a few sips, he chatted with Li Qian a few more words, and when he got up to leave, he even seemed to feel a little tiger when he walked.

But when he left. Li Qian sat in the cafΓ© for a while, but he felt awkward no matter how he thought about itβ€”he wanted to open a studio, and he deliberately bought such a large area and spent a lot of money to decorate it. Of course, he knew before he did it that he was about to get out of the days of solo practice, and from now on, it would be tantamount to pulling his own flag and standing up a mountain, and even he felt that he was mentally prepared, but Li Jinlong's sudden appearance suddenly gave him a wake-up call.

The sparrows are small. But the five organs must be complete.

If all the organs are complete, then it is obviously impossible to continue to be as casual as before, and rules and regulations must be set up for everything.

And to tell the truth, in the two lives, Li Qian's least favorite thing is this rules and regulations.

What time do you get to work? What time do you need to get off work? How many administrative staff do you need to recruit in the studio? What do they do? How should their salaries be set? How should bonuses and Shenma's incentive system be formulated? How should this company be managed in normal times? Moreover, since the studio is established, it will definitely take over work from outside in the future, what kind of work will it take? How to give an approximate price to the outside world? How should musicians, singers, and arrangers be managed when they sign in?

And so on and so forth.

All kinds of things are mixed together, Li Qian originally thought that it was far away, and he could wait until the decoration was completed over there, and the studio set up a grass platform team, and then slowly started to do it little by little, to accumulate, but now, he suddenly found that no, although the administrative staff can be recruited after opening in the future, and the musicians can also be contacted slowly in the future. If you make a song, you can have fun practicing alone, but there are some things that are pre-planned, and if you don't pre-emptive, you will be wasted, no matter how much you don't like it, you still have to start thinking about it and start doing it.

But on the contrary, Li Qian in the previous life was practicing alone from beginning to end, whether he was an underground singer and musician at the beginning, or later began to receive film and television soundtracks, and then began to shoot TV series, he was a solo practice mode, and even waited until he filmed several TV series before he began to have his first agent. So at this time, let him tinker with these things by himself, he is really a little overwhelmed.

Well, basically, once he leaves the music itself, or the production of movies and TV series itself, he becomes a layman, a rookie who almost knows nothing.

He sat in the teahouse for another long time, thinking about it over and over again for a long time, and in the end, he had to sigh, okay, go, go to Qi Jie.

It's better to leave these things to Qi Jie to worry about.

Although she is very amateur in music, she has officially worked in the unit, and she has held a lot of professional-level tome books in the past six months, and she must be more experienced and more vocal than herself in this kind of thing.

So he paid the bill and drove straight to Liao Liao's home.

Qi Jie currently has no residence in Shuntian Mansion and temporarily lives in Liao Liao's house.

As a result, when Li Qian arrived, Liao Liao and Huang Wenjuan were pulling Qi Jie to go out, and saw Li Qian frowning, looking like he was worried. Qi Jie asked what was wrong, but Liao Liao said with a big grin: "What else can he do, he must be worried that school is about to start and military training is going to be." Thinking about what excuse to skip military training, right?"

Li Qian was originally looking for Qi Jie to talk about business, but when Liao Liao said this, he couldn't help laughing, and after thinking about it carefully, it was true. Military training, it's a very annoying thing, especially since I've already participated in it once in my last life, and I really don't want to suffer that crime again in this life.

But at this time, he asked Liao Liao with a smile, "When did you come back?

Liao Liao said: "I came back yesterday, the commercial performance is not tiring, but it is tiring to take a plane back and forth." I ran for two places, and when I came back, I slept for more than ten hours and still didn't want to move. It is said that He Runqing has to take on at least twenty or thirty commercial performances a year. I really don't know how she survived!" As she spoke, she grabbed Li Qian and said, "Let's go, you go with you too, go and see my new house!"

Li Qian was surprised when he heard this, "Have you bought a house?"

Liao Liao smiled: "I haven't bought it yet, but it is said that the house is good, I want to be optimistic about it, and I will buy it immediately!"

Speaking of which, two albums have been a big hit. Although Changsheng Records has made a lot of money, Liao Liao, as a singer, must have received a lot of commissions, just to say that her first album "Liao Liao" has sold nearly five million copies so far. It is estimated that it will not be a problem to have more than 5 million copies by the end of the year, and Liao Liao will get 10% of the share from this album, which will be as high as 5 million!

And this album "The Sound of the Waves Remains" is said to have sold more than four million copies, and it is easy to surpass six million copies by the end of the year, which is obviously another lot of money. And she didn't have any extra spending, a big expense for the year. That is, it cost less than 200,000 yuan to buy a Mercedes-Benz business car, so all this money is naturally saved.

In the current Shuntianfu, although the commodity economy has been engaged in for many years, and the housing prices have been rising in recent years, the single-family villas within the fourth ring road and with a better angle, two to three floors, five or six hundred square meters to seven or eight hundred square meters, are only about five million to buy a set, and the angle is a little more off, or the area is smaller, and a villa is two or three million. Even if you go to a little suburb, a villa will cost less than a million. With Liao Liao's current net worth, of course, there is no pressure to buy such a house, so naturally he said it arrogantly.

So Li Qian was helpless, and before he could say a few words, he didn't have a chance to mention the things he was considering, so he was pulled into her business car by Liao Liao and accompanied her to see the house.

"Anyway, it's useless for me to save money, I want to use it to make some investments and buy individual stocks, but I'm still being pushed and rejected! Yes, I'll buy a big villa! Miss Ben wants to enjoy life! I want to spend money crazy!"

Several people sat in her Mercedes-Benz business car together, Huang Wenjuan was responsible for driving, Li Qian sat in the passenger seat, Liao Liao was a little bit open, and shouted: "Juanzi, let's eat donkey meat and burn it when we go back, but let's eat one and bring one!" He also patted Qi Jie and said, "You go too, Miss Ben is in for a treat!"

As she spoke, she couldn't stop squinting at Li Qian.

Li Qian raised his eyebrows, turned his head to look back, the two looked at each other, Li Qian smiled and asked, "Have you been listening to cross talk recently?"

Liao Liao was stunned, suddenly raised his leg and kicked the back of Li Qian's seat, and stopped talking.

…………

The house is really nice house.

In the East Fourth Ring Road, slightly north, it is very convenient to go to the airport in the northeast, and it is closer to the studio on the fourth ring road to the south, but the neighborhood is not a commercial area, and there is still a distance from the fourth ring road.

This horn, this environment, I don't have to pick.

The community has just been built for more than a year, the house is still being sold, a lot of people have been occupied, the surrounding construction is also doing well, large villas, single-family, European-style, up and down two and a half floors, the third floor where you can build a greenhouse to raise flowers, you can also build an open-air swimming pool, to be really sassy, you build a helicopter apron and no one cares about you.

There are two large independent garages next to the villa, and there are four exclusive parking spaces outside, the whole house is not a garage, and the construction area is nearly 700 square meters, and the opening price is only 5.58 million, and the sales manager saw that the person who came to see the house was actually the famous singer Liao Liao, and immediately said that he could ask the boss for instructions, and he would give a nine-percent discount, if Liao Liao could move in within a year, it would be as low as eight percent off, and the condition was that the other party needed to mention Liao Liao's check-in during the promotion.

Of course, without authorization, people will not publicize and publicize it.

The four of them walked up and down to take a look, and they were very satisfied, and when they saw that the materials were very solid, the walls, windows, and stairs were all very solid and exquisite. What's even more rare is that Liao Liao took a fancy to it at a glance.

So, Qi Jie came forward again to be responsible for bargaining.

But her bargaining was too ruthless, the sales manager couldn't be the master, and in the end, the sales manager reported back, and the general manager of the other party heard that it was really Liao Liao who was buying the house, so he rushed over at that time. This time, it didn't matter how Qi Jie bargained, the other party directly gave a terrifying offer: six percent off!

A large villa of 700 square meters within the fourth ring road, the garage is a gift, and the final price is: 3.3 million!

This price is so low that Qi Jie is embarrassed to bargain again!

But Liao Liao's eyes blinked, and he suddenly said that he wanted to see something else, and then asked the sales manager to take it, and the group went to see the other two villas for sale.

The general manager of the other party didn't know whether he was afraid that Liao Liao would not buy it or what, so he made a promise at that time that no matter which one Liao Liao was interested in, it would be 60% off! If he bought two buildings, the second building could also be 80% off!

This obviously hit Liao Liao's heart, but she blinked her eyes a few times, and in front of the general manager of the other party who was full of expectations, she didn't nod on the spot, just said that she would think about it, and then pulled Qi Jie over and bit her ear for a while.

Then Liao Liao pulled Li Qian and Huang Wenjuan into the villa and looked around, leaving Qi Jie outside.

And when the four of them finally ended the trip to see the house, got into the business car and started to go back, Li Qian knew that Qi Jie had actually bought three villas in one go on behalf of Liao Liao just now!

Hearing this, Li Qian was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Why did you buy so many houses? Where did you get so much money?"

Liao Liao's eyes flickered, "I want you to take care of it!"
