Chapter 153: The Father and the Son

Cheng Xiaoyu walked to the practice room with a heavy mind, the MV just now may be just average for him, but his requirements are much higher than ordinary people, so his generality can be said to belong to this era is very good.

It's okay to say if the idol group didn't debut at the same time, but it was a debut at the same time, it was impossible not to be compared, although the idol plan is very good-looking and can help them circle some fans, but as a singer, in the end, you still have to rely on your strength to speak, and you can't go far just by your appearance, in this big wave of entertainment industry, it is likely that the first album will be the last album. If the company's promotion efforts are not enough, the appearance is just a flash in the pan. In the past, there were too many examples that South Korea could give, such as groups with good looks and singing skills, such as F-vedolls (disbanded) and hellovenus (changed the core players, and their appearance was higher, but they are still not popular.) οΌ‰

Of course, there are almost no girl groups in this era, and the competition is far less fierce than in the previous life, but the album planned by the idol can be said to have no bright spots, and the positioning is not clear enough, Cheng Xiaoyu is still unclear about the promotion efforts, assuming that he has not met Xinsuo's Oriental Kagura, Cheng Xiaoyu does not have a clear standard in his heart for the Chinese girl group, maybe he will wait patiently for the next album.

But once the Oriental Kagura sets a benchmark for the girl group, it will be much more difficult for the idol plan to break through on the second album. Variety shows in this era are also quite limited, and there are not too many TV shows for celebrities to save their senses, even if there are some good variety shows, they are also occupied by some big stars.

If the first album company doesn't put a lot of effort into promoting it, Cheng Xiaoyu can imagine how miserable the album of the idol project should be compared to Dongfang Kagura, at least Cheng dΓΉ, which the two companies pay attention to, is not an order of magnitude, and from the MV, the other party's production of the album is much better from the team to the selection of songs.

Cheng Xiaoyu would not want to see such a situation, not to mention Su Yuxi and Xu Qinning, but the other four members have a good relationship after such a month of getting along, not to mention that these girls still respect Cheng Xiaoyu very much in their hearts. Although Cheng Xiaoyu's requirements seem harsh in this era, they still gritted their teeth and persevered. Cheng Xiaoyu will not forget the promise that he promised them to take them to become the strongest girl group, and men must be counted when they speak.

Cheng Xiaoyu slowly walked to the door of the practice room, quietly opened the door, and saw Su Yuxi and the others practicing dance seriously, even if he was not there, these girls were still strict with themselves, and they did not relax at all. Cheng Xiaoyu stopped and looked at it for a moment, then quietly pulled the door again, thought about it and walked towards the system, he was going to find Xiang Fengxing, no matter what, he had to persuade Xiang Fengxing.

When he walked to the ministry, he felt that he was far from qualified to persuade Xiang Fengxing as a nobody. Cheng Xiaoyu stood at the door of the Ministry of Control in a daze, and he didn't even pay attention to Ma Guoli greeting him.

Cheng Xiaoyu hesitated for a long time, but still called his father, Su Changhe, first. This hole card is the last hole card he wants to touch. This is also the first time he has taken the initiative to call his father Su Changhe after he has been back for more than a year. To tell the truth, he is still extremely entangled in his heart, if it weren't for Cheng Xiaoyu who really had no other way, he would never have made this call, and the scars in the otaku's heart are far from being erased.

After the phone was connected, Su Changhe answered quickly, and Su Changhe's familiar voice came from there, "Hey!"

During the month that Cheng Xiaoyu was on the river, Su Changhe didn't go to see Cheng Xiaoyu once, and he didn't even ask Cheng Xiaoyu. But he still knew that Cheng Xiaoyu was in the planning department, and Cao Danian had reported to him. As for Cao Danian's praise of Cheng Xiaoyu, Su Changhe just smiled and didn't take it too seriously.

Cheng Xiaoyu held up his mobile phone and heard Su Changhe's "Hey." But there was no way to speak, and the other side seemed to be very patient, and did not make a sound, and the phone was silent as if there was no one on either side.

Maybe he just hesitated for a moment, but in Cheng Xiaoyu's place, it was like spending a long winter, he sighed in his heart, but he still couldn't call out, and said softly, "President, I have something I want to report to you." ”

It was also very natural over there, as if there was no embarrassment of a long silence, "I'm in the office, you come here." ”

Cheng Xiaoyu hung up the longest and shortest phone call, turned around and left the department and walked towards the president's office.

Walking through the long corridor, the walls on both sides were full of posters of some famous superstars in Shanghe, and the ceiling lamp emitted some scattered light filling this narrow space, Cheng Xiaoyu inexplicably felt that his heart was throbbing, and the dark blue carpet with his head down was like a bottomless ocean, slowly swallowing him, although he was relieved of his mother's death, he could not forgive his father who did not fulfill his husband's responsibilities. In fact, he didn't ask for more, as long as Su Changhe gave him a reason, even if it was cheating, he thought he would feel much better, but he didn't.

Cheng Xiaoyu delusionally thought that he was just a subordinate who reported to his superiors, and he didn't come back to his senses until he walked to the door of Su Changhe's office. Cheng Xiaoyu said to the secretary at the front desk expressionlessly that he wanted to see the president, the female secretary was a woman in her thirties with a very average appearance, and she was not even in good shape, a little fat, she looked up and asked Cheng Xiaoyu, "Have you made an appointment?"

Cheng Xiaoyu nodded, and the female secretary skillfully dialed the internal line into Su Changhe's office, answered a few words, got up and walked forward with a smile, and helped Cheng Xiaoyu push open the somewhat heavy crimson door.

Cheng Xiaoyu bowed slightly and thanked him, and walked towards the spacious and transparent office, which was located on the 67th floor of the Global World Trade Center with the best lighting and scenery, and patches of golden sunlight poured in through the huge bay window, shining on Cheng Xiaoyu, but it made him feel even colder. Cheng Xiaoyu looked at Su Changhe, who was sitting on the sofa, and the superb scenery on both sides of the Pujiang River outside the window, and settled down, thinking that he should always face it, and blindly avoiding it is not the way to solve the problem.

Cheng Xiaoyu actually hoped that Su Changhe would sit behind his desk and face him with a businesslike demeanor. But Su Changhe took off his plain pure linen blazer at this moment, rolled the sleeves of his white shirt on his elbows, took off his glasses and put them on the table, closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose with his right hand, as if he was relaxing his brain and resting his eyes.

Cheng Xiaoyu walked over gently, did not sit down on the black leather sofa, stood aside and hesitated for a moment but still said, "President, I have something to report to you." ”

Cheng Xiaoyu saw Su Changhe's still handsome face frozen for a moment in the sunlight that shone on everything, he didn't make a sound, first picked up the glasses on the coffee table, put them on with both hands, and then looked at Cheng Xiaoyu's stern face, and said calmly, "Sit." ”

Cheng Xiaoyu lowered his head and said, "I'll just stand." There was an unmistakable stubbornness in his voice.

Su Changhe didn't mean to force Cheng Xiaoyu, "Then if there is anything you want to say, just talk about it?" There was neither the coldness of business, nor the warmth of the conversation between father and son, as if this was just a very ordinary greeting between friends.

Cheng Xiaoyu didn't raise his head to look at Su Changhe, his eyes were staring at the patterns on the carpet, as if he was seriously counting how many petals the peony had, whether it was odd or even. Cheng Xiaoyu didn't waste too much time, and said, "I've been in the planning department these days, interning in my sister's idol plan, but I think the idol plan is facing a big problem now, after Xinsuo launched a very strong competitor, the idol plan is going to debut according to the original album and promotion plan, and it is likely to encounter unexpected setbacks." ”

After listening to Cheng Xiaoyu, Su Changhe took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one first, lit it himself, and then asked Cheng Xiaoyu, "Do you smoke it?"

Obviously, this is still a father who doesn't know how to communicate with his children, Cheng Xiaoyu can judge from the uncertainty in his outstretched hand and tone that he is cramped and uncomfortable. Cheng Xiaoyu felt that something had opened a hole in his heart, Cheng Xiaoyu tried to treat Su Changhe as his boss, and Su Changhe was trying to treat Cheng Xiaoyu as a friend.

Cheng Xiaoyu waved his hand and said, "I don't smoke, it's not good for my throat." ”

Su Changhe smiled, inserted the cigarette into the cigarette case, and said, "Forget about jì, you sing very well." Why are you interested in being a singer?"

Cheng Xiaoyu shook his head and said in a sincere tone, "I'm very worried about the album of the idol project, and I'm only here for this matter this time." ”

Su Changhe flicked off a little cigarette ash in the purple crystal ashtray, took another deep breath, and said slowly, "Then what do you think?" ”

Cheng Xiaoyu raised his head slightly, and said to Su Changhe's sharp eyes, "I wonder if I can add two songs I wrote to the album of the idol plan." ”

Su Changhe frowned and said, "You wrote it?"

Cheng Xiaoyu nodded lightly and said, "The quality is absolutely guaranteed." ”

Su Changhe did not say that he wanted to listen to Cheng Xiaoyu's creation, and continued to swallow the clouds and spit out the fog and said, "If you can tell me earlier, there is still a play." But now it is estimated that it is unrealistic, after all, the cover has been printed, and the master tape has also been made. ”

"But I think it would be a huge loss for the company not to use my two songs, and this kind of loss is something that the idol project can't afford. Cheng Xiaoyu said in a deep voice, with incomparably strong confidence in his tone.

Su Changhe extinguished the remaining cigarettes in the ashtray, looked at Cheng Xiaoyu and said, "Excessive confidence will turn into arrogance." And for no good reason, I don't want to interfere with the album that has already been completed. ”

Cheng Xiaoyu looked intently at Su Changhe's unmoved eyes, and said, "What if my work is recognized by everyone?"

Su Changhe was a little surprised by Cheng Xiaoyu's persistence, smiled, and asked a little curiously, "Everyone's approval?"
