Chapter 22 Value
The episode of solo piano music has become an opportunity for Gu Chen to integrate into tonight's party, many people have taken the initiative to talk to him, including rich people and people in the entertainment industry, especially some people in the music world, such as Anita Mui and Leslie Cheung, have taken the initiative to greet him. By the end of the party, the relationship between them had become much closer. Leslie Cheung even proposed that after a while, everyone would be free to have dinner with a few friends who had a good relationship, and he naturally had no reason to object to this.
On the return car, Cao Hanmin happily patted Gu Chen's shoulder and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to be so good at the piano, that piece should be your original, have you ever thought of a pure piano music album?" Although he doesn't play the piano very well, as a professional musician, he still can, and in his eyes, Gu Chen's piano level is definitely at a professional level.
Gu Chen smiled, he is still very confident in his current piano level, and he has always thought that men are the most handsome when they play the piano, which is also one of the reasons why he likes the piano: "Among all the musical instruments, I am also a little good at the piano, I have thought about releasing piano music albums, and I have written a few songs, but not now, now I want to spend more energy on pop music." ”
Cao Hanmin glanced at Liang Wensheng, nodded and said, "Your idea is right, your current eyes should be to dominate the Chinese music scene." ”
The question he just asked was by no means untargeted, and the dazzling scene of Gu Chen's solo piano music at tonight's party made him and Liang Wensheng further realize the value of Gu Chen. However, the contract signed by Gu Chen and Polygram is only one year, and if Gu Chen does not agree to renew the contract after one year, he will have nothing to do with Polygram, and Polygram is equivalent to giving away the fattened duck. So what they have to do now is to maximize the value of Gu Chen within a year and earn the maximum benefit for the company.
After a quiet moment in the carriage, Liang Wensheng said: "Regarding your first Chinese album, I discussed it with President Cao during the meeting yesterday, and I think that it should be released taking advantage of the sensational effect of the first album now, which can save the company a lot of publicity expenditure, and the effect will be much better than releasing the first album after the sales have cooled down, what do you think?" ”
Gu Chen knows very well what Liang Wensheng and Cao Hanmin are thinking, but what Liang Wensheng said does make sense, the most important thing is that he has no hard requirements for early release and late release, as long as the company can fulfill the requirement of a minimum of two albums in a year written in the contract. As for whether he suffers a loss, he also didn't pay attention to it, what he needs most at this stage is fame and influence, and there are opportunities after making money.
Besides, no matter how much he suffers, it will only be a year, and he has no intention of renewing his contract with Polygram after a year.
When I got home, it was already early in the morning, Gu Chen took a shower and went to sleep, the next day was Saturday, Gu Chen had no holiday, but the company considered that he would go to Taiwan tomorrow to publicize, and then he would go to Southeast Asia and Japan and South Korea non-stop, and he might be busy for a long time, so the company canceled the work arrangement on Saturday, which was regarded as a day off for Gu Chen, so Gu Chen slept directly until noon.
After washing up and eating, I left the community from the underground parking lot and took a taxi home. The reason why he didn't take the main entrance, but had to take a detour to leave the parking lot, is because since he became popular, his residence has also been exposed by the media, and almost every day, whether it is day or night, there are reporters and fans guarding outside the community. At the beginning, he was very enthusiastic to deal with those reporters and fans, but he became a little annoyed after many times, and almost every time he entered and exited the apartment, he had to detour to the underground parking lot, which was extremely inconvenient. And the fans gather at the gate of the community every day has also had a certain impact on the normal life of the residents of the community, so recently he is wondering if it is time to change his residence.
Because I don't know how Gu Chen came back at noon, there was nothing to prepare at home, Gu Chen just ate something casually, and in the afternoon, the family of four chatted while watching TV in the living room, and at four o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Huiyun and Lin Lifang began to be busy, saying that they wanted to cook a hearty dinner for Gu Chen.
The table tennis in the kitchen was not until six o'clock, and dinner officially started, and the table was full of dishes, including chicken, shrimp, and crabs, all of which Gu Chen liked to eat.
"Eat slowly, no one will rob you, don't choke, drink the soup quickly." Seeing her son gobbling up, Liu Huiyun hurriedly filled Gu Chen's bowl with some soup.
Gu Chen took a sip of soup and said with satisfaction: "It's still a habit of eating at home." ”
Lin Lifang sandwiched a shrimp for Gu Chen, and said with a little resentment: "Who told you not to come back often, you said that you would come back at least once a week." ”
"You old woman, isn't Xiao Chen busy, you haven't seen it on TV and in the newspaper, Xiao Chen has to attend various activities almost every day, and sometimes he doesn't even have time to eat, how can he have time to run all the way back." After all, the old man Gu Xiahua is a man, and he knows the truth that men should focus on their careers.
Lin Lifang glanced at his wife and said, "I don't blame Xiao Chen, I just let Xiao Chen come back more when he has time, the things outside are unpalatable, not to mention that they are not nutritious." ”
"I think you're trying to show off to your neighbors."
"I said, you old man, why can't you get along with me all the time......"
Gu Chen couldn't help but feel funny when he saw his grandparents start bickering again, two people who were obviously in a good relationship to death had to fight over trivial things, since he was sensible, I don't know how many times he had seen such a scene, and the most common thing was that it often ended with grandpa's initiative to admit defeat.
At this moment, the eldest brother on the coffee table in the living room rang, and Gu Chen hurriedly put down his chopsticks and went over to pick up the phone: "Hello, I'm Gu Chen, who is it?" ”
"Oh, Miss Ho...... I'm sorry, I'm having dinner with my family, why don't I call you later? …… Okay, see you again. ”
Gu Chen put down the phone, and just turned around to go back to the restaurant, he was startled: "Grandma, what are you doing, it scared me." ”
But it was Lin Lifang who was standing behind him sneakily, obviously eavesdropping on the phone.
"Tell grandma if that girl is your girlfriend?"
Looking at his grandmother with an expectant face, Gu Chen suddenly cried and laughed: "What kind of girlfriend, people are rich daughters, how can you look up to me as a poor boy." ”
Hearing her grandson say this, Lin Lifang was immediately unhappy: "What a poor boy, just say something unambitious." Besides, what's wrong with the daughter of the rich family, my grandson is a big star now, and he may not be worse than their family in the future. The ancients also said that thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river. ”
