Chapter 7 Like a teenager galloping
"You dare to laugh!"
Chen Jianhao straightened his face and said, "Do you know if you're going to be miserable?" This cousin of mine is not easy to mess with, and if you offend her today, you will suffer in the future! ”
Although he said it seriously, Lu Chen was not afraid in his heart, and said with a smile: "Boss, you mean to let me sign this contract?" ”
"It's up to you to sign it or not"
Chen Jianhao waved his hand and said: "But from tonight onwards, you will be the resident singer of Forget Worries!" ”
Lu Chen was suddenly overjoyed: "Thank you, boss!" ”
He was originally a juke, belonging to the bottom of the circle of bar singers, there is no guarantee and it all depends on the reward share, if you are lucky, you can mix a mat field to earn some hard money, and if you are unlucky, you can't sing a song in one night.
The resident singer is different, although there is no fixed salary, but the time of the show can be guaranteed, the proportion of the reward share is increased to 70%, and the other can run the venue - go to other bars to perform.
Compared with the part-time waiter's on-demand singer, after becoming a resident singer, Lu Chen no longer needs to do the work of serving tea and water to customers, but his income has greatly increased!
"Sing Well"
Chen Jianhao opened a Jinwei and handed it to Lu Chen, encouraged: "Xiao Lu, if you can maintain your current level all the time, and then come up with a few excellent original songs, I believe that sooner or later you will get ahead and become the first singer to come out of the Forget Worries Grass!" ”
In this way, Chen Jianhao has never said anything to other singers in the bar, even if it is Zhang Nana or Qin Hanyang, who signed a contract with Forget Worries, the two of them are much higher than Lu Chen in terms of qualifications and fame!
Compared with Su Qingmei, he is more optimistic about Lu Chen's future prospects.
Lu Chen was moved in his heart, took the beer and drank it in one go.
He put down the empty bottle, reached out to wipe the foam from the corner of his mouth, and said sincerely: "Boss, if there is really that day, I will pay you to buy some shares of Forget Worry Grass, no matter how much!" ”
Chen Jianhao was stunned, and then smiled: "Okay, then you will be a little boss, hahaha!" ”
He knew that this was Lu Chen's expression of not forgetting his roots.
But Chen Jianhao didn't take it too seriously, there are too many talented and talented young people floating in the capital, how many can really pop up? Most of them were obscure and eventually disappeared.
Stretching out his finger, Chen Jianhao said, "Boss Xiaolu, now your guests are looking for you, go quickly!" ”
Lu Chen looked back and saw several guests he knew waving to him.
As a bar singer, unless the big name is flying, not many people will refuse to communicate with the guests, everyone drinks and chats together, talks about some musical life ideals, and can earn some wine shares.
Most of the customers at the Forget Worry Grass Bar are of good quality, and there is basically nothing dirty about it.
Lu Chen works here and likes the atmosphere here.
"Then I'll be gone"
Lu Chen hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Boss, that night's reward is divided into resident singers, right?" ”
Chen Jianhao was furious: "Get out!" ”
Lu Chen hugged his head and ran away.
………
By the time I walked out of the Forgetaway Bar, it was nearly midnight.
In the capital in May, there was still a slight coolness in the middle of the night, and the night breeze blew along the lonely pedestrian street, blowing on his body that made Lu Chen instinctively shrink his head, and almost sneezed - the temperature difference between inside and outside the bar was a bit big.
But his heart was on fire.
The source of the heat was the forty-seven hundred-dollar bills in the pockets of his jacket, which were hot and hot.
Although he has become the resident singer of the Forget-me-Forget Grass Bar, Lu Chen still stood on the last shift as a waiter, and then got the salary of the part-time job settled this month.
From the mouth of the cashier's eldest sister, Lu Chen knew that Xiao Gao, the waiter who didn't deal with him, had been fired by the boss, as for the reason, he ran out of the electronic sound room for no reason and put a fat voice tube on him, which made him vaguely understand.
Lu Chen just wanted to laugh at this, he was not a narrow-minded villain, but he was not a saint with high morals, and he was naturally in a happy mood when he saw a guy he hated get out.
However, no matter how cool it is, it can't be as happy as the joy of 47 brand-new big red bills.
One third of this money is the salary of the waiter, which is not much because it is less than a month, and the other two-thirds comes from the evening customer's tipping share - 70% of the resident singer's share!
Chen Jianhao is a very good boss, although the requirements for employees are very strict, but he is not harsh and stingy in treatment, such as the singer's reward share is settled on the same day and not overnight.
The reward of more than 3,000 is the largest extra income Lu Chen has received since he worked in Forget Worries for more than half a year!
And that's just the beginning!
Suddenly, Lu Chen was full of hope for his future life, and the gloom and depression that had been condensed between his eyebrows had all dissipated, and he took a step towards the subway station.
Like a teenager galloping!
Taking the last subway at midnight, Lu Chen returned to his small snail house.
Simply took a shower and went to bed.
A dreamless night.
At 6:30 in the morning, Lu Chen woke up on time.
He worked two jobs, working more than 15 hours a day, with only two days off a month.
Today was a Sunday off, and he could have slept in, but under the influence of the biological clock, he still opened his eyes and looked at the lead-gray cement layer on the roof of the burrow, and he no longer felt sleepy.
Lu Chen's heart was a little panicked, he was afraid that after he woke up, the things he had obtained in his dream would disappear.
Familiar and unfamiliar memories quickly came to mind, and his apprehension vanished.
Turning over and getting up, Lu Chen quickly put on his clothes, put on the worn-out sneakers, and left the basement after hurriedly finishing his personal cleaning work.
At this time, everyone else is still sleeping, and the snoring sound can be heard through the fireboard, all of them are the ant tribe of Jingpiao, and sleeping until noon on Sunday is the greatest enjoyment.
Out of the community, Lu Chen crossed the road and ran to the river, and then ran forward along the artificial riverbank.
He was too busy at work and had too little rest, and he didn't have the habit of exercising in the morning at all, and KFC that ran to work as an hourly worker every morning was considered a workout.
But today he just wants to run, otherwise his heart will be empty and uncomfortable.
At this moment, the sky is already bright, the willow-lined river bank is still shrouded in a thin mist, and there are already many people who exercise early on the trails and the flower beds on the roadside, most of them are elderly.
Several birdcages hang from tree branches, and thrushes hop in their cages, making crisp and melodious chirpings from time to time.
After running briskly for more than ten minutes, Lu Chen's physical strength was exhausted, fine sweat broke out on his forehead, his breathing became heavy, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and his mouth was dry and smelled of rust.
It was the lack of long-term exercise that was protesting, after all, he usually ran to work for four or five minutes at most, and the speed was not so fast.
However, there was still a voice in Lu Chen's mind, urging him, encouraging him, supporting him, and letting him continue running.
For the future, he needs to have a healthy and healthy body!
So with the support of a certain belief, Lu Chen gritted his teeth and continued to run until his steps slowly became brisk.
He is still very young, and youth is the greatest capital, so everything is possible
Near noon, Lu Chen returned to the basement.
Of course, he didn't exercise all morning, and spent more time on daily chores, such as depositing the money he earned last night into his bank card, then going to a nearby mall to pick out a set of cheap sportswear and sneakers, and finally running to the supermarket to buy daily necessities.
Running back and forth, returning with a full load, Lu Chen's clothes were soaked with sweat, drying layer after layer, sticky and greasy on his body was very uncomfortable.
However, he didn't bother to take a shower and change clothes, so he turned on the computer first and transferred the 4,000 yuan he had just deposited into the bank card to his mother Fang Yun and his sister Lu Xue.
In his pocket, there were only more than 300 points left.
But Lu Chen was not worried, because he was full of hope for the future!
After completing the transfer, Lu Chen seemed to have let go of a major matter, and the whole person became relaxed, and at the same time, he also felt the fatigue and soreness accumulated in various parts of his body.
Today he was really exercising, completely beyond the previous limit, and inevitably there were sequelae.
Taking off his clothes that smelled of sweat, Lu Chen prepared to take a shower in the bathroom.
Jingle bell~
At this time, the mobile phone resting on the small desk rang, and the incoming call indicator flashed non-stop.
Lu Chen reached out and picked it up without looking at it.
"Dude, what are you doing?"
On the other side of the phone, there was a familiar voice from her sister Lu Xue, crisp and pleasant, with the youthful atmosphere of a girl.
Lu Xue is seventeen years old this year and is a sophomore in the middle school of Lu Chen's hometown.
Lu Chen replied, "I'm about to take a shower and go to dinner!" ”
Lu Xue said "um", and then asked, "Brother, have you made a fortune, why did you give me money?" ”
"Sort of"
Lu Chen said with a smile: "I earned more than 4,000 yesterday, transferred 3,000 to my mother, and then gave you 500 yuan for pocket money, isn't it very moving?" Say I'm the best brother in the world! ”
"Die!"
Through the phone, Lu Chen could also imagine his sister rolling her eyes: "You're good, but you don't have to give me so much, my mother has pocket money for me, don't work so hard, pay attention to your body"
Listening to his sister's babbling on the phone, Lu Chen couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Before the accident at home, her sister Lu Xue was the little princess loved by the whole family, and usually 500 yuan was not enough for her to buy a pair of shoes, where did she need to push back and forth like now.
"Okay, you study hard, call me if you have anything"
After chatting for a few minutes and asking about the situation at home, Lu Chen ended the call with Lu Xue.
He rushed into the small bathroom, closed the door and turned on the faucet.
The cool tap water passed through the head of the shower, turned into tiny columns of water, and hit him.
Lu Chen closed his eyes, and memories of the past surfaced in his mind.
