CHAPTER XXVI
The city is brightly lit and the clear night sky is full of stars, but people can't see the stars that dot the enchanting night sky. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info lingering in the brightly lit streets, confused eyes looking ahead and not seeing the end, people only see the dazzling neon lights on the street, a lonely light in the high-rise building, announcing the rules of the city, how can there be so much time to find the beauty of the city, can only be busy with things that can never be finished, occasionally when they stop, they don't understand who they are for what.
They are so confused that they are declaring their home field in this city, and they are working hard in a trance.
Yang Fan said this solemnly to Director Xu and Liu Xinjie in front of him, and the three of them were stunned.
Timid, surprised, proud.
"Yang Fan, are you serious?" Director Xu looked at Yang Fan and asked in a low voice.
"Haha, look at the joke Yang Fan, Brother Xu, don't take it seriously, Yang Fan is that kind of person." Liu Xinjie spoke hypocritically for Yang Fan.
Director Xu glanced up at Liu Xinjie, and the corners of his mouth reluctantly raised a smile and said, "I'm still a person who can make jokes." ”
"Haha, that's just a joke, isn't it, Yang Fan."
Yang Fan lowered his head and looked at his clenched hands, his whole body began to tremble slightly, and he remembered the scene where he sat here for the first time.
At that time, he was still a fledgling newcomer, wrote countless manuscripts, voted to countless record companies, but no suitable company was willing to ask for his own things, that was the most desperate time, difficult to survive, when Director Xu found him, he had already started working on the construction site, the moment he saw Director Xu, it seemed that the world had sent the whole sun into his heart, especially warm. When he came to the company, Liu Xinjie was also there, compared to himself, a complete newcomer, Liu Xinjie was already an experienced person, professionally trained, his appearance, dancing, and singing were much stronger than Yang Fan, and later Yang Fan also knew that Liu Xinjie also had strong support behind him.
At that time, it was the same situation as today, Director Xu was sitting inside, and the two of them were sitting outside, he cowardly lowered his head and clenched his manuscripts with both hands, just thinking that these manuscripts could be sent, he wrote them for others, as long as people could hear his dream, it would come true. Liu Xinjie looked at Yang Fan in front of him proudly, and chatted with Director Xu with a smile. Yang Fan only remembered that they chatted all morning, sat by himself all morning, and didn't say a word, and at noon, Director Xu asked him: Do you want to be famous yourself or want to be famous for your works, you have gone a lot of homes, I should be your only hope here, I hope you can give me the answer after serious consideration.
Yang Fan didn't know what it meant at the time, and said excitedly: It's good if the work is famous, I just want what I write to be recognized and liked, that's all.
Then there was no more, Director Xu nodded at Yang Fan, took out a contract, he signed it happily, and Yang Fan also signed it happily. In the next half year, Yang Fan began to create day and night, from composition, lyrics, to arrangement, and production, Yang Fan completed 15 songs in half a year. When he excitedly showed it to Director Xu, he realized that all his hard work and all his creations were bought out because of that contract. He was very angry, very angry, and he and Director Xu were in the office for a whole afternoon in a fierce quarrel, and in the end, Yang Fan compromised and admitted defeat, because this reality did not give him room to think at all.
The submitted manuscripts have been returned, I have no professional training, I can't speak, I can't dance, I can't move, I don't have a body, I don't have a look, I don't have a background, if I don't sell those manuscripts, I can only go back to the construction site to work, and those things, my own creations, will never be presented, Yang Fan has to admit defeat.
Yang Fan thought of those pictures in the past, sad emotions hit like rushing waves, his eyes were red, with seriousness, anger, and he burst into looking at Director Xu word by word and said: "I'm not joking, I'm serious." I don't want to be your writer anymore, I'm going to sing it myself, I'm going to do it myself. ”
"Yang Fan, have you thought clearly, this is not a joke, you can't take it back if you say it." Liu Xinjie fanned the flames on the side and said.
"I'm not going to take it back."
"Seriously?" Director Xu looked at Yang Fan's angry eyes, and his heart trembled slightly.
"Yes, our contract has expired too."
Director Xu didn't expect Yang Fan to take the contract to talk about things, at that time, he saw that Yang Fan was a newcomer and didn't understand anything, so he took a little care in the contract to buy out the copyright of all Yang Fan's creations within five years, which is also a secret that cannot be said.
"Xinjie, you go out first, I still have something to talk to Yang Fan."
"Me? Brother Xu, this matter has something to do with me, I'm not in the way here. Liu Xinjie said sadly.
"You go out first." Director Xu said sternly at Liu Xinjie.
"Oh, okay." Liu Xinjie walked out of the office dissatisfied, and the corner of his mouth raised a smug smile the moment the door was closed. In the days when Yang Fan has been in these years, no matter how hot and hard he tries, he is also uneasy in his heart, and now, is he finally going to be freed.
Only Yang Fan and Director Xu were left in the office.
"Yang Fan, do you know how much harm you have caused to both of us by making such a choice now?"
"I don't know. Do you know how much damage you've done me over the years? ”
"So, are you now resenting me for making you incognito all these years?"
"For me, these injuries are injuries that can never be forgotten."
"Yang Fan, have you thought about it, if it weren't for me, what would you write now? Now, you look at your songs, your creations, which one is not operated by me personally, which one is not the song on the charts, Yang Fan, you have not had me and no company all these years, can you imagine what you are like? ”
"If you had said these things to me at the beginning, I would have listened, and I agreed, and I would have appreciated you. But, five years, five years of all my creations you have bought, everything according to your will, there are a lot of things that you have completely changed what I have written that I don't even recognize, my creations are for me the most wonderful work in the world, not a prop that you use to make money. I want my feelings, I want my creations, I want my dreams, all come back to my heart. ”
It was the first time for Yang Fan to talk to Director Xu so confidently, Director Xu looked at the young man in front of him, he had already retreated from his original immaturity, but his weakness made him ignore it.
"Have you thought about the consequences you'll have to bear when you leave here?"
"I'm going to disappear from this circle completely."
"You're leaving?"
"I'm leaving, even if it's broken bones, my name will be written on my tombstone, I, that's me."
"Can you bear the consequences? I can't do anything to you, but are you willing to ruin a man who came here with dreams and expectations because of you? You're at the end of the line before you even start, do you want to be that executioner? ”
Yang Fan froze, he knew that Director Xu was talking about Zhou Jing. The sinister and vicious man in front of him, Yang Fan looked at him, and made himself feel disgusted and angry.
