Chapter 116: Brother Qihua
Yi Yan's brows furrowed quickly, followed by a professional smile, and greeted the other party warmly: "Where, I have long since turned behind the scenes, what song are you still singing?" Brother Lu, we haven't seen each other for a long time, I heard them say, you are now the first brother of Qihua, congratulations! ”
The person called "Brother Lu" by Yiyan, whose stage name is Lu Zuojie, is a singer of Qihua Records.
Qihua Records is not a big record company of the four major levels, but it is also the number one in the circle, with more than 20 groups of singers, and it is a mid-range record company in Fuwan.
Lu Zuojie was comforted by Yi Yan, and said: "What is a brother who is not a brother, the boss appreciates it." Ayan, if you insisted on it again, you would definitely have released a record now. With your voice, it's a shame to go behind the scenes. What company do you do behind the scenes at now? Do you want to go back to Qihua? If you want to come back, I have a word with my boss. ”
"Thank you, Brother Lu, I'm working quite smoothly now, don't toss. By the way, here's my business card. ”
Yi Yan took out the business card of his Yun Shijie media public relations manager from the delicate business card holder, and handed it to Lu Zuojie with both hands.
"Yun Shijie?"
Lu Zuojie took Yiyan's business card with one hand, glanced at it, and said lightly: "Is this a record company?" I've never heard of it. ”
casually handed Ihiko's business card to the assistant next to him.
"Ayan, if you want me to say, you better go back to Qihua, now Qihua is developing very quickly. What's the point of you being a PR manager in a small record company like this? Back to Qihua, if you have been behind the scenes for a few years, you may be able to turn a singer again! ”
In front of Du Xinghe, Lu Zuojie despised Yun Shijie so much, and wanted to dig him, Yi Yan broke out in a cold sweat on his back, and hurriedly explained to Lu Zuojie: "Brother Lu, the development of our Yun Shijie is also very good, it can be said that it is the most promising record company in the industry, I hope that everyone can cooperate in the future." I forgot to introduce it to you, this is the boss of our Yun Shijie, Du Xinghe, and Mr. Du. ”
Lu Zuojie's eyes fell on Du Xinghe, and he was immediately helpless.
Look at the school number, this is actually a 90-level junior!
With such a kid as the boss, is Yun Shijie a playful company?
Still Mr. Du?
Lu Zuojie looked down on Yun Shijie even more, but out of celebrity etiquette, he still shook hands with Du Xinghe and said hello, but his tone revealed the momentum of a university president pressing his junior.
Du Xinghe treated it indifferently. There are many small stars in the entertainment industry, as long as they are a little famous, their nostrils will usually stare at the sky, but many top big stars will not be like this.
Lu Zuojie is a university dean one level higher than Yiyan, Du Xinghe naturally respects others, but he really doesn't look down on an arrogant little singer like Lu Zuojie.
Through the introduction of Huaguang Wolf in his mind, Du Xinghe got to know this Lu Zuojie roughly.
This tall and thin Qihua brother with three or seven points became really popular seven years ago with a folk hit song "Journey".
His album "Journey" broke into the top 10 of the 1985 Chinese album hot list with sales of 6.6 million cassettes that year.
That year, Lu Zuojie also defeated Bai Xiufang, Gao Pengfei and others who later shined in the music world, and won the Golden Melody Award for Best Newcomer.
It can be said that the future is bright, and it is worth looking forward to.
However, not long after, the media broke the news that Qihua Records had bribed the judges of the Golden Melody Awards.
This news was confirmed to be false, and someone was maliciously slandering Qihua Records, but the success of Lu Zuojie's Best Newcomer Award that year was still weakened a lot.
The reputation of Qihua Records has also been greatly damaged.
That year, this record company, which had just started for a long time, didn't have the energy to make a well-made album for Lu Zuojie anymore, so it took care of a lawsuit with the media, and its vitality was greatly damaged.
After recovering his vitality, Qihua went to promote their company's best newcomer, Lu Zuojie, and had missed the most haode opportunity.
In addition, the production ability and publicity ability of Qihua Records itself are not strong enough, and Lu Zuojie's voice texture is not very prominent, Lu Zuojie was quickly compared by the four newcomers such as Bai Xiufang and Gao Pengfei in the same period.
After that, Lu made outstanding albums, one is not as good as one, and it is very difficult to sell more than 300,000 copies.
The new album "I'm Still Me" released in the first half of this year finally got a little better, but it only sold more than 700,000 copies.
With such poor record sales, Lu Zuojie had to eat the old book of "Journey", go everywhere, and still sing this old song from seven years ago.
This time back to Huayi, Lu Zuojie also wants to perform this old song.
Yiyan said that Lu Zuojie is the first brother of Qihua, and he is completely praising Lu Zuojie.
With Lu Zuojie's current record sales, he can't even be the fifth brother in Qihua.
However, this guy's status in Qihua is indeed very high, and the super high sales he created by "Journey" have not been broken by other Qihua singers to this day.
Other Qihua singers have great respect for Lu Zuojie. Qihua's female boss Chai Yan is even more fond of Lu Zuojie. Even if she loses money and makes money, she will still make outstanding records for Lu at a rate of one or two per year.
was held so by his own company, Lu Zuojie's character was naturally very unruly.
Ihiko has been a public relations officer in this circle for several years, and his personality has long been polished very sleek. An arrogant singer like Lu Zuojie, he has long been surprised, so he will pile up smiling faces to praise Lu Zuojie.
However, behind the smile of the profession, there is a deep pain hidden in Yiyan's heart.
Du Xinghe was naturally not interested in chatting more with singers like Lu Zuojie, so he quickly walked away with Duan Xiaoxuan and Yi Yan.
Not long after he walked out, Duan Xiaoxuan suddenly said a word, and his face became very nervous.
"Brother Yan, this is the senior who stole your song back then?"
Yi Yan hurriedly whispered to Duan Xiaoxuan: "Don't talk nonsense! There are so many media here, don't let people hear it! ”
Du Xinghe frowned at the two of them.
Brought the two to the side, and finally asked what was going on.
It turned out that there was a time when several staff members of Yun Shijie went out to sing K and drink, and Yiyan drank too much, so he told Duan Xiaoxuan about a bitter past of the year.
At that time, he had just graduated from Huayi, and Lu Zuojie introduced Yiyan to Qihua Records as a signed singer.
Yiyan is very grateful to Lu Zuojie, so whatever song he writes, he will listen to Lu Zuojie first, and let Lu Zuojie help check it.
Among them, the prototype of the song "Journey" was written by Iyan first.
Lu Zuojie thought the song was very good, so he gave it to Qihua's music production team. After a slight modification, this song became Lu Zuojie's original, and then it became popular.
As a newcomer, Yiyan didn't have much to say about snatching songs, after all, at that time, Qihua wanted to package Lu Zuojie as an original folk singer, so Lu Zuojie's songs could not be signed by others.
Lu Zuojie promised Yiyan at that time that he would definitely recommend it to the company and help Yiyan release an album to compensate Yiyan.
