Chapter 40: Kicking the Gym?

A star-rated hotel in Beijing. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Second floor.

At a large round table, there are more than a dozen people sitting, Hong Ning is sitting by the door, and to his right is sitting the popular actress - Xue Yilin, she is wearing a light blue cheongsam today, with beautiful black hair on her shoulders, and a cherry mouth with gorgeous lipstick, very elegant and charming, and her complexion is also quite good, of course she is extremely happy that her sales have exceeded one million this time.

Her agent was also sitting to her right.

Hong Ning's boss, Zhao Mingdan, the company's ace music producer, sat on Hong Ning's left.

These three people are the only ones Hong Ning knows among the people seated, and the others are all senior executives of the company, Zhao Mingdan also introduced the identities of these people to him one by one at the beginning, but how can Hong Ning remember so much! What director, deputy director, and various department managers, he almost forgot it as soon as he heard it, but he remembered everyone's surname.

But it doesn't matter anyway, if it was before, if he could eat with the company's top management, even if he didn't go to sycophancy, he would never dare to slack off.

Now, huh, I'll slap you on the ass, fuck your uncle!

It's not that he is too arrogant, not to mention 100% of Xue Yilin's achievements this time, but at least 90% of them are thanks to him, and the most important thing for these businessmen is interests, so from this time they have seen the huge value of Hong Ning.

Because of this, although Hong Ning is now just an ordinary employee of the company, these so-called high-level people look at Hong Ning with more or less flattering eyes, and they don't treat him as an ordinary employee at all.

When everyone was ready, the waiter poured red wine for everyone.

"Come on!" Zhang Guoming, who was sitting in the innermost, stood up with a wine glass, with a smile on his face, looked at the others and said in a majestic voice: "Let's all have a drink together, this time we can achieve such good results in Yilin! Sales exceeded one million, and the ranking has reached the 33rd place in the first line! Let's congratulate her together!"

Just this afternoon, after the sales of Xue Yilin's latest record "At Least You" exceeded one million, her star ranking also rose two places again.

One million sales is a watershed, reaching one million and not reaching one million are two concepts.

"Come!"

"Congratulations Irene!"

"Congratulations!"

Several other people also looked at Xue Yilin with a smile.

"Thank you!" Xue Yilin raised her wine glass and said with a smile, she continued: "But this time it's really thanks to our great talent Hong Ning!" As she spoke, she looked at the young man next to her, and the smile on her face was even bigger.

Hong Ning immediately smiled back at her, and I have to say that Xue Yilin, a star, really has no steam at all, just like a girl next door, and his good impression of her is getting more and more.

"Yes, let's respect our talented man Hong Ning!" Zhao Ming Danmi said with a smile.

"Yes, Jing Hongning!"

"Xiao Hong is really a talent!"

The rest of the people also said.

"Hehe, everyone has won the prize. Hong Ning said with a wry smile, but his heart was: Nonsense! If I am not a genius, who is?!

Everyone touched their glasses, took a sip of wine, and then sat down.

After sitting down, Zhang Guoming looked at the very young man opposite him with admiration, and said in an emotional tone: "Yes, this time it is really thanks to our Comrade Xiaohong who provided this excellent song, to be honest, I didn't approve of using this song at the beginning, but now that I think about it, I am really ashamed! Xiaohong, I am very optimistic about a talented young man like you, you can come to me if you encounter anything in the company in the future, Uncle Zhang will definitely help you!"

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang!" Hong Ning said with a smile.

"Hehe, Hong Ning, don't you want to enter the entertainment industry, tell you Uncle Zhang, he has the right to speak when the company signs a newcomer. Zhao Mingdan smiled and said to Hong Ning.

"Hmm, Xiaohong, do you want to enter the entertainment industry?!" Zhang Guoming was obviously surprised when he heard it.

Not only him, but the rest of the people were also a little surprised, although Hong Ning had talked about this in an interview before, but it was an entertainment tabloid, and it was normal for these people not to read it.

Xue Yilin also looked at Hong Ning in surprise, but she was stunned and said, "Yes, I think Hong Ning's external conditions are completely okay." ”

Lu Xun, the agent next to her, answered: "Well, even if you can't be an idol, with such creative ability and singing skills, it's completely okay to be a powerful faction." ”

However, Hong Ning was reluctant to listen to what he said......

What do you mean by "can't be an idol"?!

Are you tm kidding me?!

With my buddy's world-class appearance and this body of tendons, I can't be an idol anymore?!

How blind are you!!

However, he is not easy to refute on such occasions.

And he thought about it again, this Lu Xun may just be jealous of his appearance, some people just like to find a sense of existence by belittling people who are stronger than themselves.

Alas, this kind of person is also more pathetic!

So Hong Ning looked at Lu Xun with pitiful eyes.

"Yes, Hong Ning sang the song "I" during the interview, and he didn't sell it to Wu Jie, because he wanted to keep it for himself. Zhao Mingdan continued.

Hong Ning glanced at Zhao Mingdan with some puzzlement, she was so different from her usual stern appearance now, why did she suddenly talk so much.

But he doesn't care, there's nothing to hide from these things.

"Oh, is it......" Zhang Guoming listened and looked at Hong Ning with a thoughtful look.

After a while, he said: "Xiao Hong is indeed very talented, but ......"

"You are not well-known now, although the song you wrote is popular, but in fact, everyone listens to the song and pays much less attention to the person who writes the song. ”

"If you sign up now, even if you release a song, you don't have a fan base, even if your song is of high quality, it will be difficult to sell well, which will waste your good work. ”

"When we sign artists, they usually come out of talent shows, or Ireneen has starred in movies or TV series, so that they already have a certain degree of popularity, then it will be much smoother. ”

"So...... Xiaohong, it's not that Uncle Zhang doesn't want to help you, but I can't ignore the interests of the company for my own appreciation. Zhang Guoming said earnestly.

What he said was true, and the company couldn't sign him because he could write songs, which was too risky.

Hong Ning himself is very aware of this.

However, he was also very moved by Zhang Guoming's honesty.

"Hmm. Hong Ning nodded.

"Oh yes......" When everyone else turned back to eat, Zhang Guoming suddenly slapped the table and said, startling everyone else.

"Xiaohong, you know the show "I Am a Singer". He looked at Hong Ning and said with deep meaning in his eyes.

This sentence surprised everyone present.

"Mr. Zhang, you mean...... What slot?"

"Lao Zhang...... You've got to think about it!"

"This is no small matter!"

Several people next to Zhang Guoming, as well as Zhao Mingdan, were all persuading him to think twice before acting.

At this time, Xue Yilin also looked at Hong Ning with a surprised face, and her mouth opened into a big "O" shape.

Looking at the abnormal reactions of these people, Hong Ning was confused by the second monk.

What the heck?

Although he knows that there is still a program "I Am a Singer" after the world background is modified, and the competition system is similar to before, but it has become a program of Beijing TV, and the fourth season has just ended this year, and the fifth season will start after the year.

But what does that have to do with him?

Wait! They say "quota" or something......

Don't...... Do you want him to be on "I Am a Singer"?!

Isn't it, isn't this show full of big-name singers who have already become famous?!

He just wrote a song, he's just a fifth-tier star! How can he be qualified to participate in this kind of show?!

But Hong Ning really wants to be on this show, he used to like watching this show very much, I have to admit that most of the singers on "I Am a Singer" are really powerful, and if he is on this show, his popularity will definitely skyrocket!

Think about the previous world's "I Am a Singer", how many singers who were not popular in the past have become popular, although Deng Ziqi has been popular in Hong Kong, but the popularity in the mainland has not been high, just because of this show, he suddenly became a hot popular singer in the mainland! The song "Bubble" can be said to be popular all over the country for a while, and the "Like You" she sang is even more listened to than the original version of beyond!

There are also Li Ronghao, as well as Yang Zongwei, Lin Zhixuan...... It's just too much!

"Yes. Hong Ning hurriedly nodded and replied.

"Hmm......" Zhang Guoming nodded, ignored the dissuasion of others, and continued:

"That's right, our company's Pang Dong has a very good relationship with the organizer of this show, and he finally won a kicking spot in the fifth season, and then he handed over this place to me and asked me to choose the company's suitable newcomers. ”

"You should know after watching this show that this kicking competition is actually a chance for newcomers in the music world to show, and none of the newcomers who kicked in the gym in the previous seasons were successful, but even so, it is also of great help to their star journey, and their popularity has increased greatly after participating in this show. ”

Hong Ning nodded, indeed, the kicking competition of this show was basically unsuccessful, because it was necessary to enter the top four in that game to be considered successful, how could it be so easy?

Li Ronghao participated in "I Am a Singer" as a kicker, of course, he also failed, but despite this, he was still popular! Before that, he was basically a nobody in the mainland music scene, and this is the strength of this show!

Hearing this, Hong Ning was also a little excited, could it be ...... Can he get a spot in the gym for next season?!
