Chapter 8: Boa's Refusal

An hour later, it was half past seven in the evening.

There are not many customers left in the restaurant.

Jiang Liuxing, who got off work, walked out of the restaurant and rode his red and white battery car home.

Although Jiang Liuxing failed to catch up with Rain today, he was in a good mood at this time, because his income today was very good, in addition to his normal salary, he also earned an additional 250,000 won, including 200,000 won from Choi Jin-ho and 50,000 won from Kong So-hyun, if he also collected Krystal's 50,000 won, it would be 300,000 won.

Generally speaking, the average monthly salary of undergraduate graduates in the first year after joining the company is about 2.4 million won, which is equivalent to 13,000 yuan. Of course, correspondingly, the level of consumption in South Korea is also very high.

And Kang Meteor sings in this high-end music restaurant, although he is only hired temporarily, only five days a week, and only works two hours a day, but his monthly salary is nearly 4 million won.

Today, Kang Meteor received an additional 300,000 won, which is really good.

This money seems to be easy to earn, but it is not easy, first of all, you must have enough musical talent and ability, have the spirit of hardship and hard work, and have the courage to sing in front of everyone. Today's situation is good, sometimes Jiang Liuxing has to face the contempt and even white eyes of some arrogant guests.

……

At this time, Jiang Liuxing's mobile phone suddenly rang.

Jiang Liuxing parked the battery car on the side of the road, took out his mobile phone, and found that it was an unknown number.

Many people will first be puzzled when they receive a strange call, but right now, Jiang Liuxing is the first to give birth to a surprise.

Jiang Liuxing would often even look forward to such a strange call.

Because he has already sent out more than a dozen CDs of his original songs, he is looking forward to the celebrity singers who have received the CDs calling him, and expecting them to be willing to buy and sing his songs......

Jiang Liuxing hurriedly answered the phone: "Hey, hello." ”

"Hey, are you Mr. Jiang Liuxing?"

It was a woman who spoke, and her voice was very good, and it was not difficult to hear that the other party was about twenty years old.

In fact, Jiang Liuxing judged that the other party was the singer Bao'er as soon as he heard it.

Boa debuted and released an album at the age of 14, and now she is a top singer in South Korea and is very popular in Japan.

Half a month ago, Boa gave a lecture to the students of the Department of Postmodern Music at Kyung Hee University as a special guest, mainly focusing on communication, and in the process she talked about her experience as a singer and her understanding of Japanese and Korean pop music.

Jiang Liuxing listened to the lecture and took the opportunity to give Bao'er a CD after the lecture, along with a sticky note with his mobile phone number written on it.

Jiang Meteor held back his excitement: "I'm Jiang Meteor, Bao'er senior, hello." ”

"Ah, you can tell it's me?" Boa asked.

Jiang Liuxing said: "It's strange if you can't even hear your voice." ”

This is not a compliment, Jiang Liuxing is very familiar with Bao'er's voice, he has heard many of her songs, not to mention that he has been looking forward to Bao'er's call for half a month.

Bao'er got straight to the point: "That's right, I listened to the song you gave me before, and I think it's very good, but it's a pity that this song is a little difficult to understand, and it's a male and female chorus, plus I have no plans to release an album in Korea recently, I'm sorry." ”

Jiang Liuxing's own CD CD, usually a few songs will be burned in each one, but he only burned one song to Bao'er's CD, the song is called "Altynai", Jiang Liuxing thinks this song is very good, it is his own very satisfactory work, and it is very suitable for Bao'er to sing, so he specially recommended this song to her.

At the moment, Bao'er said it a little tactfully, but in fact, she refused.

Somewhat difficult to understand?

And a male and female chorus?

Don't have any plans to release an album in Korea anytime soon?

Although these three reasons are convincing, Jiang Liuxing knows that the main reason is not here.

Although Jiang Liuxing has found various opportunities to send out a lot of CDs, so far, the star singers who have received the CD have either not responded or just refused. Jiang Liuxing believes that the reason for rejection is usually not because his work is not bad, but mainly because he is an unknown musician and is too young for star singers to use lightly.

The main reason for Bao'er's refusal this time is probably this.

"Are you okay?" Bao'er saw that Jiang Liuxing didn't respond for a long time, and asked.

Jiang Liuxing said: "It's okay, Bao'er's seniors are willing to listen to my songs, and I feel satisfied." ”

This is undoubtedly a polite remark.

However, Jiang Meteoring can accept it calmly, every time he receives a call from a star singer, he will be surprised and excited, but every time he gets a bad result on the phone, he will be disappointed and lost in the first few times, but now he seems to be used to it.

"It is not difficult to see that you are a very talented young musician, keep working hard, and I believe that one day you will get ahead." Bao'er comforted her simply, "Then be it, I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future." ”

The phone then hangs up.

"You'll regret not using this song of mine in the future!"

Jiang Liuxing put away his mobile phone and muttered, not complaining, Bao'er was willing to call to refuse, he should feel honored, and some singers who got his original songs didn't even respond.

……

At eight o'clock in the evening, Jiang Liuxing returned home, and as soon as he opened the door, Ha Ji Won greeted him.

Jiang Liuxing's heart was warm, and Ha Ji Won knew that he usually went home at this time, but whenever she was at home, he would wait for him.

My parents took the bus back to Suwon City in Gyeonggi Province after dinner, and Jeon Tae-so also left.

At the moment, there are only two siblings in the family, Ha Ji Won and Jiang Liuxing.

Jiang Liuxing walked into the living room and found a script on the sofa, the script was opened, presumably Ha Ji Won was sitting on the sofa just now while reading the script while waiting for him to come home.

Jiang Liuxing asked, "Sister, what script are you reading?" ”

Ha Ji Won said: ""Color is Empty 2", today I went to make a cameo. ”

Jiang Liuxing nodded, Ha Ji Won had mentioned this to him before.

In 2002, directed by Yoon Ji-kyun and starring Ha Ji Won and Ren Changding, a movie called "Color is Empty", the name looks a little colored, and the content is indeed a little colored, but it is actually a youth funny movie.

With 4.2 million viewers, "Color is Empty" ranked fourth in the Korean box office list in 2002, and its reputation was also very good, and Ha Ji Won won the Most Photogenic Award at the 3rd Korean Film Awards in 2002 and the Best Popularity Award at the 39th Baeksang Arts Awards in 2003.

This year, Yoon Ji-gyun decided to shoot "Color is Empty 2", the male lead is still Ren Changding, and the female lead has become Song Ji-hyo, because Ha Ji Won's worth is no longer what it used to be, during which he filmed popular TV series such as "The Story of Bali Island" and "Hwang Jin-yi", and because the story of the heroine played by Ha Ji Won in "Color is Empty" has been told, and new roles need to be replaced.

However, Ha Ji Won is willing to make a cameo appearance, and director Yoon Ji-kyun and the male lead actor Ren Chang-ding have a close relationship with her, and she co-starred with Ren Chang-ding in two movies, "Color is Empty" and "The Miracle of Ibanjie", and the directors of these two films are Yoon Ji-kyun.

The content of the cameo is very simple, it is a short paragraph at the beginning of the film, which tells the heroine of "Color is Empty" played by Ha Ji Won, who studied abroad at the beginning of "Color is Empty 2".

Jiang Liuxing asked suspiciously, "Don't you just make a short cameo?" Why do you have to read the whole script? ”

Ha Ji Won smiled and said, "Curious." ”

Jiang Liuxing asked, "What do you think of the second script?" ”

Ha Ji Won said calmly: "It's not good, anyway, it's a lot worse than the first part." ”

Jiang Liuxing didn't ask any more questions and walked into his bedroom.

Ha Ji Won quietly followed.

Kang Meteor's bedroom is the largest in the house, bigger than Ha Ji Won's.

There is a large compartment in the bedroom, which is Jiang Liuxing's study and music creation room.

In addition to a bookcase full of books and a black piano in the creation room, there are also some other musical instruments and music equipment, some of which were bought by Ha Ji Won for Jiang Liuxing, and some of which were bought by Jiang Liuxing himself with the money from his part-time job, and the walls of the creation room are soundproof walls, which were specially configured for Jiang Liuxing when Ha Ji Won bought this apartment a year ago.

These all show Ha Ji Won's love for Kang Meteor, which caused Jeon Tae-so's jealousy, and became a reason why Jeon Tae-so hated Kang Meteor, and it was also one of the reasons why Jeon Tae-so wanted to move out and rent a house. Jeon Tae-so's jealousy is not unreasonable, Ha Ji Won is clearly related to him as a brother and sister, from childhood to adulthood, Ha Ji Won loves Jiang Liuxing, the adopted son of the Tian family, even more.

At this time, Jiang Liuxing walked directly into the creation room, not noticing that Ha Ji Won had quietly stood at the door of the creation room.

Jiang Liuxing sat at the desk, and there were many books piled up on the table, including music books, as well as books on learning English and Chinese.

Jiang Liuxing's English is only good at present, he will find time to learn English every day, and strive to be proficient in English, and although he is proficient in Chinese, he will also find time to study every day and want to go deeper.

Opening the large drawer in the middle of the desk, Jiang Liuxing took out a very thick text jiàn folder from it, which he called "writing song folders", which contained all the songs he created, some of which were written on manuscript paper, and some of which were written on sticky notes.

There are more than 200 original songs of Jiang Meteor in the thick song folder, he is good at both composition and lyrics, almost all of these songs are written with lyrics, and they are all composed of music scores and lyrics. When writing songs, it is Kang Meteor's habit to write lyrics and songs together to form a song score, and in the Korean music scene, song scores containing lyrics and songs are also the most common and commonly used.

Although Jiang Liuxing is not satisfied with many songs, he can only be regarded as a grind, but he has written so many songs at the age of 19, he is indeed a musical talent, and he has not even sold a single song so far, and he is indeed a little helpless.

"Doodoo, beet."

Humming a mantra, Jiang Liuxing got up and left the desk, took a pen and paper, and sat down in front of an electronic piano next to him, ready to dig into the inspiration in his brain and see if he could write a good song tonight.

At this moment, Ha Ji Won walked in through the door of the creation room.
