Chapter Ninety-Seven: New Ambitions
Saturday, on the outskirts of Suncheonfu, Miyun Reservoir.
Qi Jie parked the car and was about to get out of the car, after thinking about it, she sat back again, broke off the makeup mirror and took a picture - she didn't think anything about it at first, but now when she looked at it, she suddenly felt that her face was a little yellow, and her eyes looked dull.
Only then did she recall that she had hardly slept well in the past month or so.
After thinking for a moment, she took out her small makeup case, added a little powder, felt that it looked a little better, and rubbed her eyes again, trying to make the blood in her eyes a little less, but ...... Three minutes passed, and she realized that it didn't seem to be of much use.
Sighing helplessly, she put away her makeup case, picked up the stack of papers, got out of the car, locked the car, and walked into the resort.
After entering the fishing area, Qi Jie saw Li Qian at a glance, and after thanking the waiter, she walked over quickly.
…………
Li Qian and Wang Huaiyu sat side by side, each with a fishing rod.
Wang Jinglu was sitting next to Li Qian, holding a book in her hand, reading it with relish.
In Wang Huaiyu's bucket, several have been harvested, and there is a particularly large one, which costs more than two catties at a glance, but in Li Qian's bucket, there is only one small crucian carp so far, and there can be three or four taels when it is dead.
Wang Huaiyu really came to Shuntianfu after the New Year, and has now entered the National First National Orchestra, not only the chief suona and chief sheng, but also a senior artistic consultant. Then, at the Huaxia Conservatory of Music, he has already completed his entry, but he will not take classes in the first half of the year, and when the next semester begins, he will be responsible for opening a course. At present, the initial plan is to introduce folk musical instruments.
But the conservatory was not very satisfied, and hoped that he could open a violin or piano lesson, after all, his violin and piano are also well-known in the country. Considering the current trend of social development, Western musical instruments are more and more valued and loved by the whole society, and they are naturally more likely to be loved and sought after by students than the suona in the soil.
And. Because when he was in Jinan Mansion, he was already qualified as a master's tutor, so after he transferred to the Huaxia Conservatory of Music, the Conservatory wanted him to start teaching graduate students - after all, in the current country, there are only a dozen master's tutors in the area of professional music teaching, and there are only two people in the area of folk music. Since they had already poached people, of course they didn't want to waste resources like that.
Anyway. It's a mess, he spent two or three months, work, housing, car, or something, and finally got it almost done, and it happened that Li Qian was also free, so everyone decided to get together.
Whether it's stealing a half-day of leisure, or deliberately getting together, the two made an appointment a few days ago. Let's go out fishing together. We met early this morning, and then we drove over to this reservoir together.
Not to mention. Fishing for fish and chatting, Wang Huaiyu talked about his feelings in the past few months when he came to Shuntianfu, and spit out from time to time, Li Qian also talked about his recent study and life, and by the way, he satisfied Wang Huaiyu's gossip about his feelings about playing Sun Ce. It's really indescribably laid-back.
Wang Jinglu was completely indifferent to the topic between the two old men, but held a book about performance, read it very attentively, and asked a few questions from time to time. Discuss with Li Qian and Wang Huaiyu.
However, Qi Jie really chased after him.
Although she had already lightened her steps, she quickly attracted Wang Jinglu's attention, and when she saw that it was her, Wang Jinglu got up from the stool with a smile and took the initiative to say hello.
Qi Jie also smiled at her and nodded, and the two of them said a few words before she greeted Wang Huaiyu, "Hello Teacher Wang!" - Soon after Wang Huaiyu arrived in Shuntian Mansion, he went to Li Qian's studio to go around, so Qi Jie recognized him and knew that his relationship with Li Qian was also a teacher and a friend, which was extraordinary.
Wang Huaiyu smiled at her and nodded, and then said, "Xiao Qi, your face is a little bad, you've been too tired lately, right?"
Qi Jie smiled when she heard this, pulled up a lock of hair, and said to Li Qian's back, "Look at him, he is so idle, completely throwing off the shopkeeper, isn't the price that I have to break my leg?"
Wang Huaiyu laughed twice when he heard this, and said: "Li Qian is a blessed person! With you running around for him to take care of those things! However, I have to be fair, and only if you help him take care of all those things, can he spare his mind to make music, right? If you let him run around and talk to people about business, I don't believe that he can still write so many beautiful works!"
He has always been peaceful, and these words not only praised Qi Jie, but also praised Li Qian, and sure enough, Qi Jie heard it with a smile on his face, "Oh, thank you for giving me such a high evaluation!"
But then, as soon as the pile of documents in his hand lit up, he almost hit Wang Huaiyu's face, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, I know that you are a music master, why don't you take a look at the plot outlines of these TV series and see if any of them can catch your eye, and help write a song?"
"Hey......", Wang Huaiyu was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed, "You ...... The level is really getting higher and higher, and this is starting to catch my strong man?"
While speaking, he smiled and pointed at Li Qian, "You still look for him, look for him, it's okay for me to play musical instruments, but it's not okay to write songs!"
It just so happened that Wang Jinglu had already helped move a small stool over, so Qi Jie took it and sat down between Li Qian and Wang Huaiyu, with a smile on her face, and said: "Look at it! I don't believe it, just rely on your level, even if you write casually, it's enough to deal with these TV series!"
Wang Huaiyu waved his hand a little embarrassedly, "It's really not good, it's not that I don't help, I really haven't done this!"
Only then did Li Qian interject with a smile, "Okay, Brother Wang is really not good at this, don't force him." Being able to play an instrument and composing music are not the same thing!"
As he spoke, he reached out and took the pile of documents in Qi Jie's hand, flipped through them roughly, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "So many?"
Qi Jie smiled, with a smug look on her face, and said: "You don't count, how long have you not been to the studio?" These are all saved in the past few weeks, there are a total of seventeen copies, I screened them first, some of them even I think are obviously unreliable, some of them are filmed and have no chance to take them to the TV station, at most there is a set of DVDs or something, and some of the plots are really unreliable, I took them out, and now I show you these eight films, all of which I think are more reliable!"
Li Qian was surprised, and immediately shook his head and smiled, "It seems that that sentence makes sense, it's really high and low!" After a pause, he shook the stack of plot outlines in his hand and said, "You take so much, even if I can write enough theme songs, there are only a few people in our studio, and the soundtrack can't do it!"
Qi Jie responded when he heard this: "So I want you to choose! Which one do you think is good, choose two or three to come out, as long as you can write the theme song, you don't have to worry about the rest, I have asked Brother Jinlong and Meimei, the current manpower of our studio, do twenty to twenty-five urgent soundtracks a month, it's not a big problem, anyway, TV series, many soundtracks are used repeatedly." If you really can't do it...... I'm discussing with Brother Jinlong and Meimei, why don't we recruit a few more people?"
As she spoke, her eyes flickered slightly, and she deliberately avoided Li Qian's gaze.
As the general manager of Li Qian's studio and the head of Minghu Culture Company, she certainly knew Li Qian's original intention and goal of doing this studio and this distribution company.
To put it bluntly, Li Qian just wants to have a plate for himself to make music without pressure, not really to be big, to be the king or anything like that. The reason why I wanted to recruit people at the beginning, of course, was to do a good job of Liao Liao's album, so I just recruited a few helpers, and later, it was just to add an album of He Runqing.
However, just Liao Liao and He Runqing, each with an album a year, plus almost all the album works are all done by Li Qian, and together it will be completed in three or four months, as the actual head of Li Qian's studio, Qi Jie is of course unwilling to let the arrangers and musicians raised by the company be idle for seven or eight months a year, so she has been extremely active from the beginning to run out to take work.
With the help of the hit of "Troubled Times" and the popularity of the theme song "Da Jiangdong Go", the studio has also begun to initially open the market in the film and television drama soundtrack, and Qi Jie is even more thinking about making full use of the resources he currently has.
Even, in her opinion, as long as she can get a job, what are people afraid of if they are not afraid?
But obviously, she knew very well from the beginning that her ideas were contrary to Li Qian's original intention of establishing this studio. Therefore, even if she really wanted to take this opportunity to expand the strength of the studio, when she mentioned it, she still only said that Quan Zuo would test Li Qian's attitude first.
But at this time, Li Qian obviously didn't take this seriously, and just said in passing: "Recruitment? I don't think it's necessary, right? In this way, we have the manpower now, making two albums a year, and then receiving two or three TV series or movie soundtracks, I think it's good." If you recruit any more people, the stall will get bigger and bigger, and by that time, we will really have to be listed as a record company, not a studio. ”
Qi Jie smiled when she heard this, thinking that this was indeed the case.
But after a pause, she saw that Li Qian was just looking down at the plot outline, so she couldn't help but knock on the side and said, "I think so...... Hehe, you haven't been to the studio recently, so you don't know, these days, many distributors from other places have taken the initiative to come over, hoping to sign a distribution contract with us for He Runqing's new album. You know, at the beginning, they were all taken the initiative by me to find them one by one, and to be honest, they were not too enthusiastic, I guess if it weren't for Liao Liao's album, they might not be willing to take care of me!"
