When Ji Shanshan saw Fang Yan, she sent several of the company's subordinates back to Yanjing, leaving only her confidant assistant. This is her usual style, keeping the most important resources firmly in her own hands, and no one else can touch them.

After listening to Ji Shanshan's report, Cao Weiran, CEO of ketchup, was very satisfied. Fang Yan was not in a hurry to sign a contract, but he maintained a good relationship with Ji Shanshan. He thought that the company was about to launch Zhang Ruiwen in July, and this wave of offensive should concentrate all his strength, and he couldn't make a mistake, and he had no spare strength to deal with Fang Yan's affairs.

Ideally, ketchup will sign under the rock in the second half of 2017. That way, it won't disrupt the company's resource allocation. However, Cao Weiran still wanted to meet Fang Yan in person first. Imprisoned at the age of 17 and reborn in prison, this story is too legendary.

On April 20, Thursday afternoon, Ji Shanshan picked up Fang Yan by car and said that she would take him to play.

"I have something to do in the evening. Fang Yan said.

"I know, that little girlfriend of yours has a birthday today. Ji Shanshan said, stuffing a large bottle of perfume into his hand. "Gifts. Girls love Chanel. Just for a while, my sister won't delay you. ”

"A bottle of this...... How much does it cost?" Fang Yan looked at the perfume box, very embarrassed. He forgot to buy a birthday gift for Yuan Yuan, no idea.

"I don't know what others give. Ji Shanshan continued. "This place, you are definitely interested. ”

That's right, Fang Yan was interested.

Ji Shanshan wanted to take him to the oldest "Wangfu" gymnasium in Jiangdong City to go backstage at a concert. Fang Yan can see what a top-level concert looks like, and maybe he can also chat with a female star.

"He Yu, you know, right?"

"Is that her?"

Ji Shanshan held the steering wheel and smiled: "I came to Jiangdong to see her." ”

He Yu is a famous female singer in the Chinese music scene, she entered the music industry after graduating from college at the age of 22 and quickly became a first-line star, releasing 4 albums within a few years. She not only has a good image and high musical accomplishment, but also has a straightforward and distinctive personality, and has a large number of loyal fans. It's just one step away...... She will be able to step into the diva level.

That was 10 years ago.

At the age of 26, He Yu quit the music industry at the peak of his career and has not been heard from since. It is said that she fell in love with a married man, and after many years of entanglement, she finally achieved a positive result, got married, and became a full-time wife. She was not happy after her marriage and did not have children, but adopted a daughter.

3 years ago, her husband had a new love and divorced her quickly. He Yu guards his adopted daughter who goes to kindergarten, has no financial resources, and lives in great embarrassment. After persisting for 3 years, in order to earn money to support her family, she decided to make a comeback and return to the stage.

In 2017, He Yu was 35 years old.

He Yu announced his comeback, causing a sensation. The media frantically gossiped about her unhappy marriage, and former fans lamented, but everyone was pessimistic about her comeback.

Changed. The confident and brave little girl 10 years ago is long gone. The ruthless years have changed He Yu, she hasn't sung for many years, and her level has plummeted. What's more, her former huge influence has long been exhausted, and there is not much left.

A few new songs, a concert tour around the country, started her stumbling comeback. And Koto City, is the first stop of the tour.

After the news was announced, some mean media people commented that this must be a trip to cheat money. It's better to miss each other than to see each other, He Yu is destined to destroy people's good memories of her.

But no matter what, He Yu still has the strength to hold a concert.

In China, whether a concert can be held and how large-scale a concert can be held is the hardest criterion for measuring the value of a singer and star. It's not easy for fans to buy tickets and take the time to go live and listen to you sing.

The reason is very simple, everyone knows that the commercial value of movie actors is far greater than that of TV drama actors. Because watching movies costs money and takes time, while TV series are free. The audience's love to watch your TV series at home and the willingness to go to the cinema to watch a movie you play (maybe it's still a big bad movie) are not the same concept.

Similarly, it doesn't matter how popular an album or single is on the Internet, how high the number of plays and downloads is. The concert is the real thing.

"When I was in my junior year, I started working part-time in a large company, intern, assistant. Sister He Yu was the first person I ever followed. I was 20 and she was 22 and she was really like sisters. She's nice, it's just ...... Not so lucky. ”

Fang Yan asked, "She's in ketchup now?"

Ji Shanshan was a little embarrassed, shook her head with a smile, and said, "No." My boss, and I don't like her comeback. She had been gone for too long, and she was too eager to return. She has a nice company in Hong Kong, Victoria. ”

"Hmm. ”

"If she's in ketchup, at least ...... There will be no concerts on Thursdays. ”

Fang Yan immediately came to his senses.

Concerts are usually held on weekends, especially Saturdays, so that the audience and fans can calmly indulge. When the song starts on Thursday night, many people have to work overtime and go to work the next day, who will go?

He was curious and asked, "Why Thursday?"

"It's simple. The palace stadium is too expensive, and the schedule for 2018 is already full. Her company has to make last-minute arrangements, and it can only be on Thursday. However, I heard her say that the tickets sold well. ”

"That's ...... Cheating money?"

"Of course not, don't underestimate her, she still has a lot of fans. I'm just worried that after this round of performances, her career is going to be over. Ji Shanshan sighed and said with a smile. "We haven't seen each other in 3 years. ”

He Yu stood alone on the edge of the stage.

When she was in middle school, Fang Yan listened to her many songs. He was surprised to find that although He Yu was 35 years old, he was still dressed as a little girl.

She wears a white short-sleeved T-shirt, a pair of jeans, and white sneakers. It's incomparably small and fresh, like a college girl. Her arms are thin, she has no makeup, no jewelry, a hairpin pinned to her short ear-length hair, and an unadorned face facing the light, her eyes are dark and bright. She looked at the dome of the gymnasium thoughtfully.

She looks no different from 10 years ago.

No traces of time can be seen. Fang Yan's heart was a little relieved. At least in appearance, He Yu has not changed. He is most worried that she is no longer young and dressed up very glamorous, which will become a horror movie.

"Sister Xiaoyu!"

Ji Shanshan walked over quickly, and the two hugged gently.

They used to be good friends, but they have become somewhat estranged. After many years, Ji Shanshan is thriving, but He Yu is somewhat down. Holding Ji Shanshan, He Yu's heart was mixed. But she is still very grateful that her former sisters are willing to come to cheer and stand on her platform.

"Let me introduce you, Fang Yan, my brother. ”

"......" Fang Yan was not very satisfied with becoming Ji Shanshan's younger brother, but he had no choice but to go up and shake hands and say, "Hello Sister He Yu, I grew up listening to your songs." ”

"Hello. He Yu smiled and nodded, a little embarrassed. What do you mean by that, ironically I'm old? Well, I'm very old.

"Don't underestimate him, he's quiet, he's very good at making music. ”

"Haha, and it's handsome. He Yu said politely. She was so busy rehearsing every day that she didn't know anything about wizards.

Fang Yan thought, He Yu still changed.

I remember that 10 years ago, He Yu was a girl who was full of momentum, dared to think and speak, and offended a media because she spoke too straight. But now, she was a little timid, and there was always hesitation in her voice.

Ji Shanshan and He Yu chatted, and the topic quickly became distant.

Fang Yan quietly walked away, wandering around the stage alone, looking around curiously. I didn't take two steps when I heard a man in the audience yelling, "Guitarist, give me guitarist, I want a guitarist!"
