104 Photo albums
Gu Huo obviously didn't want to bother with Su Xueren, so he changed the subject.
"By the way, this morning in the company, I officially mentioned the photo album to the company's big leaders. As he spoke, he looked excited.
Without mentioning it, Miki almost forgot about it. I thought that I was so excited to make a photo album for him, and even the publishing house was in touch, and I worked hard to take so many photos. As a result, in the end, because he had an affair with Su Xueren, the matter of the photo album was put on hold.
"Oh, what did those big leaders say?"
"What else can I say, Fabei. As popular as I'm right now, they've got to make a big deal out of it. Gu Huo's tail was about to rise to the sky when he spoke, "And do you know that Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't look down on me before, thinking that I was a money-loser." This time she agreed 100% and asked to contact the photographer for me. ”
Miki thought that since the company was going to arrange a professional photographer, the photos she had taken in Japan would definitely not be accepted. In this way, she is quite lost. In the past, when Gu Huo was not very popular, the company did not pay much attention to him, and rarely did publicity plans for him, which was quite a bit of a self-fending for him.
At that time, because no one interfered with his work arrangement, Miki had a lot of say. Help him arrange this and that, plan this and plan that every day. But now the situation is very different, Gu Huo is as popular as the sky, and he is the seed player that the company focuses on cultivating, so naturally there are professionals to plan his career. As a little assistant, I can only do some of my own work of serving tea and water, and I can rest where it is cool.
Gu Huo didn't see the little assistant's frustration, and he talked about the photographer Louis who was about to shoot a photo album for him. The photographer is arguably TheLava's royal photographer, and he is responsible for both the forest and Andrea's photo albums. Although this person has taken a back seat in recent years and rarely takes on cases again, there are still many legends about him in the rivers and lakes.
This time, Cheng Xiaoxiao took the initiative to invite Louis out of the mountain, and Gu Huo was very overjoyed. On the one hand, he admires this photographer very much and loves his photography style, and on the other hand, Cheng Xiaoxiao's initiative to ask for help fully reflects the company's attention to this photo book and to himself.
"Anyway, my father doesn't love my mother and has been in the company for so many years, and suddenly I feel the strong love from the big leaders, and I feel a feeling of flattery. ”
Saying that, he sighed, "It's a lot of pressure, and if it doesn't sell well, it will be bad." ”
When you are not loved, you have the sorrow of not being loved, and when you are loved, you also have the pressure of being loved, and life is really full of all kinds of tastes.
"It's all business. Mi Qi suddenly said coldly.
"What?" Guho didn't react.
"I said that everything between you and the company is really business, a purely commercial relationship, so you don't need to be flattered. Mi Qi saw his current state of mind, "When you're not popular, whoever treats you is cold anyway, and when you're popular, you're an uncle everywhere, and everyone holds you." ”
She couldn't forget the information she had made all night with her eyes and went to Cheng Xiaoxiao's office full of hope. In that not spacious office, Cheng Xiaoxiao threw the materials she had carefully prepared into the trash. She thought that if Cheng Xiaoxiao recalled the scene at that time, would this ruthless strong woman blush for her arrogance and rudeness at that time?—— probably not, successful people like them seem to have already given up their feelings and turned into an invincible business machine.
Gu Huo also smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "Who said it wasn't." You haven't seen Cheng Xiaoxiao in the past few days, and when you see her tomorrow, I guess her attitude towards you should be very different. ”
Miki also smiled, "Who's to say it's not." ”
The two of them silently prepared for the meal, and suddenly fell silent.
Miqi sighed, "Actually, it's quite boring. ”
Gu Huo didn't speak, waiting for her to continue.
"Before, Cheng Xiaoxiao denied my proposal and refused to publish a photo album for you, saying that the company is not a charity and does not do money-losing business. At that time, I was crazy about trying to make you red, and then I swollen her face so badly. But now you see, her face is clearly swollen to the point where it can no longer be swollen, and she herself admits by action that she was wrong at that time. So in this war, it seems that I have won, but what about the facts?" Miki pouted, "- the fact that I did defeat her, but the fact that I defeated her did not make me happy. ”
Gu Huo actually couldn't quite understand what she said. His little assistant, that is, his little girlfriend, many times he does not fully understand her, but this does not affect his love for her.
Miqi also felt that Gu Huo didn't understand, so he changed his words, "I mean, looking back, we unknowingly put ourselves in a state of confrontation with the whole world. Fighting with Cheng Xiaoxiao, fighting with black fans, and fighting with those who don't like you, you must let yourself live a glorious life and humiliate those who once looked down on you. ”
Guho agrees with this.
"Have you ever noticed that we try to live the way they don't want us to live, or live the way they want us to live, the two sound two different things, but they're essentially the same. We also live in the eyes of others, and our whole lives are at the mercy of them. ”
Gu Huo was surprised that she only now realized that as a public figure, he had long lived in a passive situation where he could not be himself. It's not that he doesn't want to live his true self, it's that many times he is placed in the midst of choppy waves, completely involuntarily and can only float in the direction of the waves. There are too many moments in his life, he is pushed by the people around him, and gradually loses his way.
With a long sigh, Gu Huo looked at Miqi and said, "The day I marry you is the day I retire." ”
This was a bit too abrupt, and Miki was almost a little frightened by him.
"Okay, how do you talk about retiring? You are now in the red season, you should be thinking about doing a great job, why are you negative?"
Gu Huo straightened up and said very seriously: "I'm not negative, I'm planning for the future." My personality doesn't fit into this circle, that's something we all know. And as you can see, I'm a weak-willed person, and this circle is a huge vanity fair, and all kinds of temptations happen every day. If I continue like this, I'm really scared that I'm going to go bad. ”
Miki certainly agrees with what he says, but once he retires, his musical talent will be useless, which is his loss and the loss of music. So she was very hesitant and didn't know if she should agree with her lover's decision.
"I understand everything you say, and I understand everything. If you could, I also hope you don't live in this circle. Because the ecology of this circle is unhealthy as a whole, people will be more or less psychologically affected if they stay in it for a long time. But if you quit the circle, what will happen to your music career?"
Hearing this, Gu Huo showed a smile, "Fool, it turns out that you are worried about this matter. I can continue to write and sing songs even after I retire from the circle, and it's actually good to be an independent musician. ”
Miqi didn't expect this, so she also smiled, "Yes, if you want to sing, you can sing anywhere, you don't have to sign a contract to mix in the circle." Saying that, she teased Gu Huo and said: "But playing music is very expensive, since you have already made up your mind, you have to save money from now on." ”
Speaking of money, Gu Huo's eyes were a little wandering. To be honest, as a third-tier artist who has debuted for many years, he really doesn't have much savings. Now that the music market is sluggish, almost no one will pay for physical records. Electronic copyright is one solution, but the situation in our country is that piracy is rampant, and listeners have not yet developed the habit of paying to download music.
To sum up, if you want to make money, it is impossible to rely on films, you can only rely on commercial performances and endorsements. Commercial performances are not always available, and the endorsement market is almost monopolized by actors, and it is difficult for singers to get a piece of the pie. Nowadays, singers can only hold concerts if they want to make money, and there are endless concert tours. People from all walks of life in the music industry, whether they are senior singers who have debuted for many years, or young artists who have just debuted for a long time, are running non-stop between major cities and holding concerts tirelessly.
Sometimes Gu Huo really feels distressed and embarrassed for his peers. The embarrassment is that they feel embarrassed for those young artists, who have not even released a regular album, in order to pass the long time of the concert, they are singing the songs of other singers vigorously. Hey, it's not all about the money. It's not to make money, who wants to do this hard work.
TheLava has never held a concert since its debut, and Gu Huo has few endorsements in his hands, and there are occasional commercial performances, but they are really only occasional, once in a few months. So in this way, I really haven't made a lot of money in the past few years.
If there is no money, there will be no independent capital, so for him, the most important issue at the moment is actually to make money?
Speaking of making money, Gu Huo's thinking turned back to the photo album that was about to be filmed. He couldn't help but pray that the book would sell better so that he could make more money.
He rested his head on Miqi's shoulder and muttered, "I don't know how many photo albums can sell......"
Miki sensed his concern, so he deliberately joked, "It's not up to you to sell more or less." If you wear more, you will sell less, and if you wear less, you will sell more. ”
Guho disagrees with her, "How can my fans be so superficial. ”
"Your fans are so superficial, you think. ”
In fact, Miqi said this purely to make him happy, but her unintentional words were taken to heart by Gu Huo.
"You say, are you girls now more willing to see us men take off?"
Mi Qi felt that we girls couldn't carry this black pot, so she began to pull others into the water: "Don't limit the target group to women, okay, don't forget that you have a lot of male fans." You are a man, they are also men, since they are all men, then what you men want to see, what you like to watch, you as a homosexual, you should know best, I don't need to go into details. ”
Gu Huo remembered the private photos that appeared in his private messages over the years, and couldn't help but snort twice, "What do they want to see?—— they should want to see me go to the sea to shoot AV." ”
Miki corrected, "No, it should be GV." ”
