Chapter 13: The Soul Singer (12)

On the twenty-sixth floor of Taimei Building, the boss Chen Shujie was angry for some reason, and his face was so gloomy that he could drip water. scared everyone in his luxury secretarial team, and they had to pretend to be busy when they had nothing to do.

Wang Tezhu did not have the qualifications to hide in the secretary's office and not come out, so he was trained in Chen Shujie's office with a bitter face.

Chen Shujie snapped, threw a stack of materials on the table, and was full of anger, "You didn't even go through it, and I made your own decisions to stop the preparations for Wu Tianyu's concert!" You're bold! "If it weren't for the fact that Wang Tezhu was his own person who had followed him for many years, this pile of things would have smashed on Wang Tezhu.

Wang Tezhu didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, he was Chen Shujie's senior assistant, and it was normal for him to temporarily exercise power when the other party was not there, and to implement the decisions that had been made a long time ago.

However, Chen Shujie seemed to be very angry about this, so although he didn't feel that he was wrong, Wang Tezhu still carefully explained, "Wu Tianyu didn't know what to offend Matthew, Matthew personally called me that night to 'complain', I heard that it was Wu Tianyu who made a move with him, so he was so angry!" Then we have to say something, so I'll do what you wanted. ”

Chen Shujie knocked on the table angrily, "You also know the meaning of 'before'!" Don't call me before you do it! ”

Wang Tezhu whispered, "You went over there and were not entangled by a few difficult family members, you must be annoyed, I think this matter must be handled like this, so I don't need to disturb you......" said softer and softer, and finally was stunned by Chen Shujie.

Chen Shujie pinched his eyebrows, he has been in trouble recently, he just put the film crew in the accident in the snow mountain flattened, and before he came back, he found that because he didn't give a word when he left, Wang Tezhu caused him such a thing again!

It's rare for him to be so upright, but when he is so stirred up by Wang Tezhu, Wu Tianyu is going to hate him to death!

Looking at Wang Tezhu's unlucky appearance, he sat down helplessly and waved his hand, "You go out first." ”

Wang Tezhu was very worried, although he was disgraced by the training, he still remembered to ask before going out, "What are you going to do over there, Wu Tianyu?" I will now notify the following departments to assist him in preparing for the concert to resume work? ”

Chen Shujie thought about it, "Matthew will leave tomorrow, so let's just wait for him to leave and then let Wu Tianyu resume work." Also, you can help me make an appointment with Wu Tianyu for dinner. ”

"Huh?" Wang Tezhu's mind didn't turn for a while, and he thought to himself, I just asked you if you want to resume his concert preparations, what does it mean to have dinner? Do you want to show goodwill? Appease? I felt incomprehensible, and thought that even if I really wanted to be appeased, then with Wu Tianyu's worth of less than three months as a singer, I didn't need you to come forward in person! ”

Chen Shujie, "Find a restaurant with a clean environment and a better atmosphere." After a pause, he made his own decision, "The one I was to last time with Linda." ”

Wang Tezhu immediately became enlightened, "Okay! ”

He is really worried, but probably because of this trait, Chen Shujie will always use him as an assistant. Therefore, although I was very shocked by the fact that the boss turned out to be a 'twin' at this moment, and I didn't know when I quietly fell in love with Wu Tianyu, I still dutifully remembered to remind him when I walked to the door, "Wu Tianyu seems to be more arrogant, he even dares to beat Matthew, you ...... "I want to say that you have to be careful!" But I felt that it was inconvenient to say this, so I swallowed back, "I'm going to inform him of the preparations for his concert below, and then go to him to explain?" ”

Chen Shujie already had other thoughts at this time, "Forget it, you have done everything, it is not bad for these two days, just wait until Matthew leaves." ”

In order to show the importance of the cooperation project, Chen Shujie personally went to the airport the next day to see off Matthew and his party.

The two sides said a few kind words on the scene, and Matthew made a gesture to Chen Shujie, "Chen, please take a step to speak, I have something to say to you alone." ”

The two walked away a few steps, a little away from Matthew's team and a few assistants of Chen Shujie, Matthew spoke, "It's about Wu Tianyu, I heard that his concert was stopped by you." ”

Chen Shujie, "Not bad. Quietly scrutinizing Matthew's expression, his mind already racing, thinking about what to do if he was still not satisfied.

But Matthew continued, "Ahem, can I ask you to forget some of my previous grievances against him. ”

Chen Shujie was stunned, "Why?" ”

Matthew shrugged, "Because I respect art!" ”

Chen Shujie raised his eyebrows.

Thinking he was confused, Matthew explained, "He came to me and played all his classics. He does have talent, and his work is very powerful! I don't think I can tolerate being the one who prevented such a great work from coming out, and I would feel guilty about it! I'm not a saint, but I once swore an eternal loyalty to art. So I've forgiven him and promised to persuade you to lift the restrictions on him and his concert will take place as scheduled. ”

Looking at Matthew's exotic face, with a natural expression on his face, Chen Shujie's hand hanging by his side clenched and loosened, resisting the urge to punch him. This damn Frenchman made him sit in Wu Tianyu's heart and confirm the image of a wicked person! I can't explain it!

=========

After the resumption of preparations for Zhou Yin's concert, the pre-publicity was completed, followed by a press conference, the first wave of press releases, and ticket sales.

Due to the short time that Zhou Yin appeared in front of the public, the organizers were still a little worried about whether the early ticket sales could meet expectations, because the ticket sales rate during this period was all supported by the singer's hardcore fans, and Wu Tianyu had a lot of fans, but it was difficult to say whether a large number of loyal fans could be developed in a short period of time.

The result was surprisingly good.

Zhou Yin only prepared ten songs for this concert, even the opening, the break in the middle, and the change of costumes are counted together, and the total duration is estimated to be about one and a half hours, which is shorter than the average concert, but he doesn't want a lengthy concert, he just needs a wonderful concert of his own, so he chooses the classics created by Wu Tianyu in various periods.

Therefore, when the planning team made soft advertisements, according to the characteristics of Wu Tianyu's concert, they listed the tracks he was going to sing one by one, and each song was accompanied by two sentences of introduction.

For example, one of his early love songs, sung by a famous female singer at the time, was very popular for a period of time, and it was an old song ten years ago.

Another example is Wu Tianyu's peak work in the mature period of Wu Tianyu's affectionate music style five years ago, sung by the powerful singer Feng Yihui, which swept almost all college campuses at that time, and the introduction of this song is: romantic youth, the love melody that sings in the ears.

By analogy, almost every song can be endowed with a quality that evokes memories from the bottom of people's hearts. Forty-year-olds can find old songs that they loved more than a decade ago, and eighteen-year-olds can find new songs like this one, which have only recently been released, but have already firmly grasped them.

People keep seeing the advertisements and exclaiming, "Oh my God! It turned out to be his work, and it was my favorite of the year! Wu Tianyu's voice is so good, I don't know what effect he will have if he sings this classic himself? No, no, I'm going to buy a ticket to the concert! ”

In the early days of ticket sales, nearly 40% of concert tickets were sold within a week.

This is an internal statistic, without any moisture, a very good result! The subsequent snowball effect made the box office sales greatly exceed expectations, and by the eve of the concert, all the rest were sold out, except for the reserved free tickets.

Sister Bao almost wanted to have a small celebration party for this.

Zhou Yin's heart was put down for the most part, and then he only went all out to prepare for the concert, and his seriousness was no less than that of a soldier who broke the kettle and fought against the water.

He wants to completely wash away the shadow left on Wu Tianyu by the 'Chi Dusk Gate' incident, and at the same time prove to himself: a setback does not mean failure, as long as you persevere, you will succeed one day.

=========

In the elegant restaurant, soft music is whispering in the ears, and the aroma of good food floats in the air.

Zhou Yin had a standard smile on his face, and this smile was so polite and alienated that people could tell at a glance that it did not contain any emotion except for a few muscles that affected his face.

Gently pushing back the wine glass in front of him, the wine in the glass goblet is very dark, almost inky, with a tangy aroma, it is an old wine from ChΓ’teau Margaux, "I have a show tomorrow night, I can't drink." ”

Chen Shujie sat opposite and said very gracefully, "This wine is very good, it's okay to drink less." ”

Zhou Yin answered him with practical actions - he called the waiter and asked him to serve him a glass of white water.

Chen Shujie looked at him, "You are the most unkind artist under Taimei." ”

Zhou Yin remembered that he had said this once before, and he was too lazy to talk about the scene again, so he just smiled.

When the dishes came up, they were all delicate and light dishes, Zhou Yin nodded at Chen Shujie and took the lead in starting, the two were relatively speechless, and ate silently.

Zhou Yin is about to hold a concert, he pays great attention to his diet, picks the lightest and non-irritating dishes, stops when he is full, takes the snow-white napkin, and touches the corner of his lips elegantly.

Chen Shujie barely ate anything, sipping wine and watching the person opposite dine. After a while, I found out that I don't know if it was my own mental effect or what, tonight is not only the wine very good, it is worth tasting, Wu Tianyu can also be enjoyed as a scenery.

He seems to be a natural star, not afraid of being watched, knowing that he is being watched, he still moves elegantly and calmly, and occasionally looks up and meets Chen Shujie's eyes, and he will smile very politely.

Chen Shujie intuitively said: The more audiences around, the more graceful and standard his movements will be, "You are very suitable to be an actor, few people can be watched by me like this and move so freely." Have you considered past developments in this area? ”

Zhou Yin shook his head, "I only plan to devote my energy to music in this life." ”

Chen Shujie asked, "Since you have potential, why don't you consider multi-faceted development, which will only be good for your fame and prestige, and not harmful." ”

Zhou Yin asked rhetorically, "Could it be that Mr. Chen asked me to come tonight just to personally persuade me to join the entertainment industry?" ”

Chen Shujie looked at the snow-white tablecloth, exquisite tableware, and two delicate roses inserted in slender bottles on the table. took out one and put it in front of Zhou Yin, meaning something, "What do you think?" ”

Zhou Yin frowned and smiled a little distressedly, "To be honest, if anyone asks me to come here for dinner tonight, I will be very sure what he means, but this person is you, I can't figure it out." ”

Chen Shujie put down his wine glass and leaned back in the chair, his tough facial features were still a little domineering in such a soft and romantic environment, "You don't have to think about simple things complicated, that's the reason you thought of." ”

Zhou Yin felt ridiculous, "After you pushed me to Matthew's side twice?" ”

Chen Shujie frowned, "What if I said that the first time was because I didn't know you at that time, and the second time was purely a misunderstanding?" ”

Zhou Yin raised his eyebrows, "Misunderstanding? ”

Chen Shujie stated the facts in a flat tone, "I rushed to the xxx mountain area to deal with a shooting accident a few days ago, and my assistant took it upon himself to suspend your solo singing after receiving Matthew's complaint. ”

Zhou Yin didn't expect that there was a misunderstanding, put away the mask-like smile on his face, lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before questioning, "Mr. Chen, with all due respect, the credibility of what you said is really not high. If I'm not mistaken, you came back on the second Wednesday of last month, Matthew flew home on Thursday, and my solo preparations resumed on Friday. If it's really a misunderstanding, then why not correct it when you come back? Even if you let me know in time! And Matthew promised me that he would talk to you before he left so that you wouldn't get stuck on my concert because of his affairs, so I prefer that it was because I reconciled with Matthew that my concert went ahead as originally planned. ”

Chen Shujie turned his head sideways, scolded Matthew in his heart, and then turned his face to Zhou Yin and explained seriously, "I didn't know that you had reconciled with Matthew when I first came back, if Wang Tezhu asked me before dealing with this matter, then I would definitely stop him from doing it, but since it has happened, it doesn't make much sense to solve it two days earlier or two days later, so my plan at that time was to send Matthew away first, and then resume your work after he returns to China." If you don't believe it, you can go and see the notification emails sent by Wang Tezhu to the following departments, which were all sent out on Wednesday night, informing them to resume your concert preparations on Friday, and this date is recorded in the computer system. ”

Zhou Yin was really a little surprised by this explanation, and after being speechless for a while, he sneered lightly, "It doesn't make sense to say this now." He stood up and threw the napkin on the table, "Thank you for the dinner, it tasted good." ”

Chen Shujie has never been completely ignored like this, and his face is not good-looking, "You don't believe it?" ”

Zhou Yin, "I believe it, but I can't accept you, so-thank you!" Good bye! ”

Turn around and leave.

Chen Shujie stopped him, "Why? I know I'm asking for something abrupt, but I don't ask you to do it right away, we can take our time. If you still mind Matthew's matter, I can apologize, and to be honest, I'm glad you can reject him with such a clear attitude. ”

Zhou Yin was silent, looking at Chen Shujie with an unfathomable and profound look.

Chen Shujie is also not afraid of being looked at, and he does not shy away from looking at him, and at the same time he is still persuading in his mouth, "I have this confidence, I can meet all your requirements for my lover, and even surpass your standards." Well, you don't need to answer right away, think about it first. ”

Zhou Yin hooked the corners of his mouth, "I don't doubt that your conditions are good, but it is not that I must accept you if your conditions are good, there is no inevitable causal relationship between the two." All I can say is sorry and don't think about it. ”

Chen Shujie was angry and asked in a deep voice, "Why?" ”

Zhou Yin hit the nail on the head, "You are not sincere." ”

His former lover Shen Jialing is a very similar character to Chen Shujie, a capable and powerful industry elite with a successful career. At that time, I thought that the other party could arrange a romantic dinner in his busy schedule, and a warm date on a weekend was sincere, but in fact, it was not at all, it was just a pastime when people were free.

Zhou Yin is now wise and wise, and he is very uninterested in this kind of person who is full of confidence and domineering in front of him! The person who truly loves you, or the person who is ready to truly love you, will not be domineering and powerful in front of you. If there is no respect, you will not stand in the other person's perspective and think about each other, and anything else is empty words.

That apology is still said in the face of Chen Shujie is current partner boss, otherwise he is really too lazy to say anything more.

Chen Shujie held a mouthful of old blood in his chest, he has always been all kinds of handsome men and beautiful women who are trying to catch him up, even if he takes the initiative to look at someone, it is just a matter of beckoning, when has he ever been so serious? As a result, he was disgusted and insincere!

It's just that things in the world are so wonderful, all kinds of people who took the initiative to send them to the door, Chen Shujie may not have the patience to look at it twice, but Wu Tianyu, who clearly rejected him, made him even more interested, angry and angry, but this did not affect Wu Tianyu's charm in his eyes, and even felt more attractive.

The person in front of him is not only a thin and elegant, with some romantic artistic atmosphere, a singer who is very eye-catching, but also a target that needs to be overcome with brains and energy.

The more difficult the process is, the stronger the sense of accomplishment will be.

He squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Zhou Yin for a long time, and suddenly like him, he hooked the corners of his mouth, "I know that you are different from ordinary people, compared to money and status, you should be more committed to the career you love, and in this regard, the help I can give you will be beyond your imagination!" ”

Zhou Yin showed no mercy, "Look, it's insincere again!" ”

Shujie Chen, "............"

=========

Zhou Yin returned home, and sent away the little assistant who acted as the driver on the doorway, and asked him to go back to rest quickly, but when he entered the room, he found that Sister Bao had not gone back yet, and was waiting in the living room worriedly. ”

Zhou Yin spread his hands, "What else, Chen Shujie and I picked out, and then I refused." ”

Sister Bao's eyes widened, "Then what is Chen Shujie's reaction?" ”

Zhou Yin recalled, and told her with certainty, "When I left, his face was almost as black as ink. ”

Sister Bao asked, "Then ...... concert tomorrow?" ”

Zhou Yin was sure, "It's okay, unless he suddenly goes insane, he won't do anything to obstruct him at this time, which is tantamount to demolishing Taimei Entertainment's own station, and he will lose a lot of money just for the ticket fee and the venue liquidated damages." ”

Sister Bao was anxious for a night, but after getting the right words, she calmed down like resignation, "Okay, then you have a good rest, tomorrow morning's time is all yours, sleep more if you can, recharge your energy, there is a tough battle to fight tomorrow night!" ”

………………

Wu Tianyu's solo concert was held in the Central Gymnasium of Z City, which is the largest comprehensive indoor venue in Z City, which can accommodate 12,000 people at the same time, and large-scale stage activities in Z City are generally held here.

Unlike idol stars with a specific fan group, the age distribution of the audience who came to listen to Zhou Yin's concert was very even, with all kinds of people, and in addition to the dozens of posters and signs arranged by the company in advance, there were no fanatical fans who automatically organized a group to pull banners and shout slogans to cheer, because there were no people who were too excited and excited, so the order of entry was much better than that of ordinary concerts.

Zhou Yin was backstage, had already changed into the first costume, made a good look, and sat in front of the screen to watch an entertainment station live interview with his concert.

There is no doubt that the concert was well attended, but the scene was so orderly that it hardly looked like a β–‘β–‘ concert, but like a grand theater about to stage a classical opera.

Sister Bao sat next to Zhou Yin and watched together, even more nervous and stressed than him, "Is this atmosphere a little not warm enough?" ”

She didn't expect Zhou Yin to answer, and then cheered herself, "But our attendance rate is real, but we didn't bake it by giving away tickets!" As long as they're willing to pay for a ticket to listen, it's a testament to the fact that everyone is looking forward to your performance. ”

Zhou Yin smiled, didn't say anything, slowly took a deep breath, and relaxed his feelings. It's impossible to put on a little pressure, and although it's his forte to show his strengths in front of an audience, he's never held a concert for 10,000 people after all, and after a while, he'll face the largest live audience he's ever faced.

Under the gaze of tens of thousands of pairs of eyes, the spirit needs to be highly tense, and the slightest mistake cannot be made.

Sister Bao suddenly pointed to a reporter on the screen and was anxious, "Isn't this Li Xin's royal reporter?" How did she get involved! ”

On the screen, a capable female reporter with short hair and long pants was picking the quietest place for the audience to interview, and stretched out the microphone in front of a little girl who looked like a student, "Little sister, will you feel β–‘β–‘ quiet and passionless sitting like this before the concert starts?" ”

The little girl replied innocently, "Yes, the Dream Group concert I watched last year was much more lively than this, and their names were being shouted in the gymnasium before the opening, and I could barely hear my friends talking." The mother of the little girl sitting next to her answered, "It's different, that time she was dedicated to chasing stars, this time we were dedicated to listening to songs, and it is rare to have a concert that my daughter and I are interested in......"

The female reporter retracted the microphone in time and turned to the camera, "It is reported that Wu Tianyu has been transformed from a senior songwriter to a singer, and it has only taken a few months from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, perhaps because of the lack of popularity accumulation, the audience at the concert lacks due passion, and some people in the industry have commented that although Wu Tianyu's new singles have achieved very good results, it is still too hasty to hold a solo concert immediately after, so he is not optimistic about today's concert." So what will Wu Tianyu's results be tonight? Let's wait and see! ”

"I#Β₯%......&," Sister Bao slapped her leg angrily and scolded with a foul language, "If you accept money, you dare to distort the facts, something without professional ethics!" ”

Worried about glancing at Zhou Yin, he persuaded, "Forget it, don't look at it, it will affect your mood." The media that is close to Li Xin also has something to do with Tae-mi, we can't stop her from the sidelines, and even if she is not allowed to enter, she can interview her indiscriminately outside. As he spoke, he went to find the remote control, and wanted to turn it off directly for Zhou Yin, so that he could be out of sight.

"Wait, look at it a little longer!" A deep voice sounded from behind.

Sister Bao hurriedly turned around in surprise, and Zhou Yin also put away the posture of relaxing and leaning in the chair, straightened up and turned her head, "Why are you here!" ”

Chen Shujie stood behind them with his chest crossed, "I'm here to listen to the concert." Holding the back of Zhou Yin's chair, he lowered his head and approached him, "By the way, show some people who are still very naΓ―ve in their thirties what I can provide!" ”

He came suddenly, the staff hurriedly moved chairs for the big boss, and the on-site coordinator and the venue duty manager also hurried over, but they were all blocked by several assistants of Chen Shujie.

Thirty seconds of advertising was suddenly inserted on the screen, and when I switched back to the interview scene, the female reporter had already interviewed another person, and if you looked closely, you would find that the smile on her face was a little stiff. The interviewee was a young man in his twenties, dressed in fashion, facing the camera generously, praising Wu Tianyu's works like a treasure, praising and praising them, and finally said that he was looking forward to tonight's concert very much, and I believe it will be a success!

Chen Shujie kept holding Zhou Yin's back and standing behind him, and then bent down and said in his ear, "In the entertainment industry, you can't neglect any link, you offended Li Xin, if no one mediates it, he won't let you have a good time, if I didn't care just now, let this woman deliberately mislead the interview again, and then send two half-truths and half-truths instant online comments, your concert will fail half before it starts." ”

Zhou Yin looked at his watch and stood up, "It's time for me to get ready to play." ”

When he and Chen Shujie walked sideways, he stopped for a moment, got closer, and whispered, "Of course I know this truth, but for me, there are two things in life that are sacred and cannot be desecrated, one is my music, and the other is my feelings!" So I will never sacrifice one of them for the success of the other," his tone sank, and his eyes hardened, "It's better not to get that kind of results!" ”

In order to match his early music style, Zhou Yin's first appearance was very refreshing, but after all, the stage style is very different from life, Chen Shujie was shaken by his suddenly approaching face, and was moved by the more energetic eyebrows, straight nose bridge, and naturally moist lips, and watched Zhou Yin's tall figure walk out of the backstage dressing room before retracting his gaze.

Zhou Yin's first song was strongly appreciated by Chen Shujie at the beginning, although he was not satisfied at the time, but because it inevitably expressed the confusion of teenagers about the future, longing, yearning for ideals, and struggle, it was sought after by a large number of young people who had the same mood at that time! The impact is huge.

Because there was no signature at that time, many people who loved this song like Chen Shujie back then only knew that it was also his work when they saw the concert promotional materials, and even many people came to listen to the concert for the classic in their hearts back then.

As the author, Zhou Yin knows the meaning of this song better than the singer back then, and the moment Qingyue's voice sounded on the stage, all those who have loved this song were stunned: Isn't it a soft chant with melancholy in confusion at the beginning? It turns out that it can be expressed in such a penetrating singing style.

The background of the stage is a melancholy dancer dancing solo in the wild, and the swaying and unrestrained dancing posture cannot hide the depression and longing for the outside world that rushes around alone but cannot rush out.

Zhou Yin's voice is clear and penetrating, sincere feelings run through it, without any deliberate embellishment, flowing rhythm, twists and turns, a teenager's confusion about the future, the desire for dreams vividly come out, the audience is silent, only the light and melancholy singing echoes in the sky.

At the end of the song, the silence lasted for a long time, and the audience erupted in applause and applause, and most people knew after listening to the first song that they had earned it! Such a wonderful live performance is definitely worth the tickets, and what you can enjoy tonight will be an audio-visual feast, I am afraid that even the concert of a certain king not long ago will be beyond the reach of the dust, and the tickets for that concert were once speculated to sky-high prices!
