Send Cao Jia back, her mother is at home. It is estimated that Cao Jia always talked about me at home before, and her mother was very enthusiastic when she saw me and beckoned me to sit at home.

Of course I smiled and refused.

Walking alone on the way back, the street lights are quiet, I don't want to go back to KTV, I don't want to go home, I just walk aimlessly on the road. received a phone call, it was Zhou Yu.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Chen Ze, we're back." Zhou Yu's voice became more and more cold and low, and I could hear the tiredness in her voice.

"Where?" I asked.

"At Moonlight Studios."

I took a taxi to Moonlight Studios. On the curb across the road from the studio, a young man in a T-shirt and jeans on the bottom sat a guitar and sang softly.

I looked at him a little more, and it looked familiar.

I didn't think much about it, but when I walked into the studio, there was a room full of people waiting for me, some I knew and some I didn't. When they saw me, they all shouted: "Hello boss." ”

George stood aside excitedly: "Boss." ”

I smiled and nodded, patting George on the shoulder.

"What about Zhou Yu and Kong Peikai."

George said: "Zhou Yu is in the recording studio inside, and Lao Kong is still preparing for the concert outside, and he can't get out of his body and can't come back." ”

"Zhou Yu is going to have a concert?" I asked in amazement.

"Yes." George smiled excitedly: "The one in the provincial city has been sold out in five days. ”

I walked into the recording studio, Zhou Yu sat alone in front of the microphone, humming the demo quietly, she was thinner than before, looking a little tired, but a pair of eyes were brighter and brighter.

Zhou Yu is more confident than before. She has begun to faintly have the aura of a first-line star in the entertainment industry.

"It's hard, isn't it?" I found a chair and sat down next to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu smiled implicitly: "Fortunately, I thought of it before releasing the album." Other singers have accumulated fame little by little, but I became popular overnight with one of your albums. If you want to reach the sky in one step, how can you do it without putting in some effort? ”

"With my own fans and a popular star in the circle, travel or something should be different from before. Did the paparazzi stalk you when you came back this time? ”

Zhou Yu nodded and smiled shallowly: "Of course there is, someone will follow you as soon as you get off the plane." It took me a lot of effort to get rid of those entertainment reporters, who were sunglasses and scarves, and hid here like a runaway. ”

I smiled: "Fame also has the trouble of becoming famous, and the further you go on the road of singing, the higher Cheng dù will be noticed by the media." When you're done with the concert, I think the number of paparazzi tracking you will immediately double. ”

Zhou Yu blinked.

"Do you have any plans for coming back this time? What do you want to eat or what do you want to play? I'm in for a treat. ”

Zhou Yu shook his head: "I just want to come back and have a good rest, I don't want to go anywhere, I have to go to the provincial capital in two days to prepare the songs for the concert." The first time you take the stage, you can't afford to miss it. ”

"Need my help?"

Zhou Yu hesitated for a moment and nodded: "I need a new song, and the quality must be good." ”

"No problem." I smiled, "I'll send it tomorrow." ”

After saying a few words to Zhou Yu, there was silence. I shrugged and walked out of the studio.

"Chen Ze." Zhou Yu stopped me.

I looked back at her.

"Thank you." Zhou Yu looked at me seriously, "If it weren't for you, the dream of me, Lao Kong and George, I am afraid that I would not be able to realize it in my lifetime." ”

I smiled and walked out.

…………

Outside, a room full of people were cautious and didn't speak, and many of them were a little nervous when they saw me, the big boss behind the scenes, for the first time.

I smiled at George, "Tell me about each of them." ”

George was ordered to introduce the people in the room from beginning to end.

"VATS ENTERTAINMENT is still in its infancy, and you are all veterans of the company and the backbone of the company. I hope everyone can work together to make the company better and bigger. "I said it briefly.

A room full of people applauded.

I put my arm around George's neck to the door and gestured to the man sitting across the street.

"Who is he?"

George scratched his hair: "His name is Zhang Lei, a wandering singer, I found us here two days ago, I want to sign a contract with our company, I briefly interviewed him today, he sings folk songs, his voice is good, and his skills are poor." didn't sign him, he was quite persistent, and he didn't leave opposite us. I saw that he had been quite quiet and didn't cause trouble, so I ignored him. ”

I nodded, pushed the door open, and walked over to Zhang Lei.

He sat there playing guitar on his own, completely immersed in his own world, and he looked up at me after I listened to him play a song.

"Wrote it yourself?"

Zhang Lei nodded, there was always a kind of melancholy in his eyes.

"You're a staff member there?" He asked me.

I smiled, "Sort of." ”

"Oh." Zhang Lei replied and began to pluck the strings with his head down.

"What's next?" I asked.

Zhang Lei looked at me suspiciously, thought for a while and said: "If VATS Entertainment doesn't sign me, I will go all the way west, I want to go to Xinjiang, and if possible, I will go to Tibet." ”

"Xinjiang, Tibet." I silently recited these two place names and said to Zhang Lei, "Don't go, or rather, don't go for the time being." You go back first, come here tomorrow morning, I'll give you a song, if you can sing it well, VATS Entertainment will sign you. ”

Zhang Lei looked at me with a melancholy look in his eyes and nodded silently.

He picked up the folk guitar and left silently.

The next day, when I came to the door of the Moonlight Studio, Zhang Lei was already there.

"Let's go." I called him.

When I entered the studio, the people in the room shouted in unison, good boss.

I waved my hand and told them what they were supposed to do. took Zhang Lei into the recording studio.

I looked at the expression on his face, still calm, his eyes still tinged with his peculiar melancholy, and he didn't show any surprise at me being the boss here.

In the recording studio, as agreed, Zhou Yu and George were there.

"Boss, how did you bring him here?" George asked, confused.

Zhou Yu nodded to me, looked at Zhang Lei and said nothing.

Similarly, Zhang Lei didn't ask anything and didn't say anything.

I smiled and handed a manuscript to Zhou Yu.

"Is it okay to look at this song?"

Zhou Yu looked at it briefly, sat in front of the microphone, and tried to sing softly.

"The foam in the sun is colorful

Just like me who was deceived, I am happy

Investigate what is right and wrong, your lies

Based on the fact that you still love me

Beautiful foam、Although a flash of fireworks

All your promises, though too fragile

But love is like a bubble, if you can see through it

What's so sad

……”

George applauded excitedly: "Good to hear. ”

Zhou Yu nodded: "This song is good, it's a little difficult to sing, I have to prepare well before I can take it out at the concert." ”

I smiled, "That's up to you." ”

Zhou Yu took the song sheet and stepped aside, and I handed Zhang Lei another prepared song.

"Hold the guitar, play and sing at the same time, let George and Zhou Yu listen to the effect. If it's good enough, George will be responsible for signing you up. ”

I said to Zhang Lei.

Zhang Lei had a serious expression, took the manuscript I handed over, read it, and looked at me with some surprise.

Also surprised was George, who whispered to me, "Boss, do you really want to sign him?" His conditions are indeed average......"

I waved my hand: "Don't worry. Trust me, after listening to him sing this song, you will willingly sign him. ”

George stepped aside in disbelief.

Zhang Lei sat down in front of the microphone and gently plucked the guitar. Try to follow the sheet music I wrote and sing it.

"You're in the southern sun, and the snow is falling

I am in the cold night in the north, and the four seasons are like spring

If it's too late before dark, I'm going to forget your eyes

Extremely poor in life, I can't finish a dream

He no longer talks to anyone about the isolated island of encounter

Because my heart has long been deserted

He can't hold a home in his heart

Be a mute who only lies to yourself

He said that you are beautiful in any way that is praised

It's not as good as the first time he met you

Time lingers and there is nothing to be done

If all the lands are joined together

Embark on a lifetime just to embrace you

Drunk his dreams, good night

He heard someone singing an old song

Singing is still happening in the distance today

The island he saw in his eyes

There is no sadness, but there are no flowers either

You're in the southern sun

Snow

I'm in the cold night in the north

The four seasons are like spring

If only it was too late before dark

I'm going to forget your eyes

Extremely poor in life, I can't finish a dream

……

The big dream woke up and it was absurd in this life

The south of the mountain and the north are sad in autumn

There are grain piles in Nanshan

The south wind murmurs, the north sea and the north

There are tombstones in the North Sea"

In one go, this song seems to be completely created for him, the more Zhang Lei sings, the smoother it becomes, and the more he sings, the more he feels.

From the first sentence, the expression on George's face froze, until the last sentence "There is a tombstone in the North Sea" fell, he trembled and took a deep breath, and I saw that his arms were full of goosebumps.

Actually, I'm the same.

The first time I heard Zhang Lei sing this song on TV in my previous life, I was deeply shocked.

And today, the original is heard on the spot. I just feel like I'm enchanted by the atmosphere that this song creates.

"Sign now! Sign now. George jumped up and shouted, "I'll go get the contract ready right away." ”

He hurried out.

Zhou Yu also stood up and walked out. As I passed by, I saw tears in the corners of her eyes.

Zhang Lei put down his guitar and looked at me inexplicably.

I smiled at him, "Good singing." ”

Zhang Lei looked at me with melancholy eyes, and said with a very resolute expression:

"Please leave this song to me to sing, no matter what kind of contract, I will agree."
