Chapter Ninety-Four: The Daily Life of Awkward Conversations
It was clearly a makeshift office, with a simple room with no frills and a small laptop on a large desk. In front of the desk, there are two dark red single sofas, and between the sofas is a small round table in clear glass.
Gu Cancan didn't know how to answer, but Yang Liu didn't plan for Gu Cancan to answer immediately, motioned for Gu Cancan to do it on the sofa, and then went to make tea by himself.
At this moment, Gu Cancan only felt that the aura of the woman who looked very elegant on the other side was very powerful.
The aura is formless, colorless, discorporeal, and there is not even a scientific basis to prove it, but it does exist.
Yang Liu is the kind of person who has a lot of aura, even if Gu Cancan is a human being in two lives, facing her, he also feels a kind of pressure.
Yang Liu behaved very kindly, personally poured a cup of tea for Gu Cancan, and said with a smile: "Are you from northern Hebei?" ”
"Yes." Gu Cancan nodded in response: "I am from Qingjiang City, northern Hebei, and it is a prefecture-level city. ”
It was clearly a makeshift office, with a simple room with no frills and a small laptop on a large desk. In front of the desk, there are two dark red single sofas, and between the sofas is a small round table in clear glass.
Yang Liu didn't go back to the desk, but sat on the sofa next to Gu Cancan, and said with a smile: "My mother is also from Jibei Province, and the two of us can be regarded as half fellow villagers. ”
Gu Cancan smiled slightly and said, "Yes, which city is Auntie from?" ”
"Handan City. It's not very far from your Qingjiang City. ”
Gu Cancan nodded slightly and said, "Yes, there is only Niucheng in the middle." ”
The two of them exchanged a few words on the geographical location without pain.
Yang Liu began to cut to the chase: "Gu Cancan, I heard that you refused to sign a contract with our Tianyu, why?" ”
Speaking of this, the expression on Yang Liu's face was still very kind, but Gu Cancan felt that Yang Liu on the opposite side began to exude a kind of pressure from the superior.
didn't answer immediately, Gu Cancan picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, slowly put down the teacup, she smiled and said, "Actually, I also decided to reject Mr. Zhang of Taihe Wheat Field." ”
Yang Liu raised his eyebrows, the expression on his face seemed to be a smile rather than a smile, and motioned for Gu Cancan to continue.
Gu Cancan continued: "The main thing is that I feel that I am still young, I am now in my first year of high school, and if I want to sign a contract with a certain company, I may have to give up my studies. I was also planning to go to university, so I turned it down. ”
"Is it based on this consideration?" Yang Liu sat in a very dignified posture, his hands were habitually placed together, and his legs were obliquely sideways, even if there was only Gu Cancan in the office, there was only a little girl.
Gu Cancan nodded and confirmed: "Yes, I thought so." I think if I join your company, I will need to participate in a lot of activities, and I may have to give up my studies, which I can't accept. ”
Yang Liu said slowly: "Indeed, if you sign up with us Tianyu, I can't guarantee that you will have time to continue to complete high school." But with all due respect, Gu Cancan, do you know what you want, or rather, what are you going to college for? Can you tell me which institution you are targeting? ”
Gu Cancan pondered for a while and said, "My goal is the Central Conservatory of Music. She lied to Willow.
Yang Liu smiled and said: "What about after being admitted to the Central Conservatory of Music? After graduating from university, do you want to continue to be a singer or do you want to do something else? ”
"I guess I'm going to be a singer." Gu Cancan hesitated and said that after telling a lie, he had to continue to tell more lies to fulfill this lie. It's a really bad feeling.
Yang Liu smiled and said: "But if you join Tianyu now, you will be a singer." And Tianyu also has professional teachers who will tutor you. Gu Cancan, the musical talent you showed amazed everyone, I found all your original songs to listen to, which can be described as talented. But maybe when you enter a conservatory, academic education and ideas will imprison your creative talent. Tianyu is different, Tianyu can give you enough creative space, will help you release albums, and will have professional marketing operations. ”
Is this a temptation?
After a pause, Yang Liu carefully observed Gu Cancan's reaction, and to her disappointment, Gu Cancan looked very calm, not like a fifteen-year-old girl.
In the face of temptation, do children nowadays be so mature? Yang Liu sneered, and continued with a smile: "For example, your song, Fairy Tale Town, this song is now on major music lists, and the best ranking is No. 20 on the Netease Cloud Music New Song List." If it is operated by Tianyu, the quality and popularity of this song are enough to push it to the top five of major music charts. But now, Fairytale Town is completely out of its reach. ”
Gu Cancan's eyes drooped slightly, and he was silent. Yes, she came up with classic songs from later generations, but now, she basically has no influence from later generations, and the reason is that Gu Cancan does not have enough influence and not enough fame.
Yang Liu observed Gu Cancan's reaction, and then said, "There are also today's flammable and explosive. To be honest, if I hadn't come to the TV station and heard it by chance, I wouldn't have cared about a particular player. ”
"I'm honored then." Gu Cancan responded.
Yang Liu smiled and said, "I can't believe it's a song written by a teenager." In my opinion, this song can't be made without a certain amount of experience, and I'm curious how you can write this song. That's one of the reasons why I decided to have a good chat with you. ”
Gu Cancan once again brought out the inspiration he got from watching Zhang Ailing, and Yang Liu smiled dumbly and revealed the topic.
"I heard you refused to sign because the treaty was too long?" Yang Liu asked.
"Mainly in this aspect." Gu Cancan pondered and said, "In addition, the treaty requires singers to completely obey the company's arrangements for the release of works, as well as the income from singers' commercial activities, and the company will charge sixty percent, which I can't accept." ”
Yang Liu nodded, indicating that he understood, and when Gu Cancan finished speaking, Yang Liu said: "Let's not talk about the length of the treaty." We Tianyu will have detailed training and packaging positioning for each singer who joins, and everyone's works will be tailored to fully meet the characteristics of singers. As for commercial behavior, this is very normal, and a large proportion of singers' income is commercial income, but whether a singer can receive commercial endorsements and commercial performances is naturally the result of the company's efforts. Do you think that these are all things that singers can do by themselves, even if they are solo singers, they have agents and a huge team to support. ”
Gu Cancan pondered for a while and said to Yang Liu: "What if I give up some of my rights and interests in exchange for a contract with more free time?" ”
"Oh?" Yang Liu asked with interest: "What do you think?" ”
"It's very simple, if I join Tianyu, I hope that I can control my own time freely, and the company can't arrange my itinerary without my permission. As for the commercial income, I am willing to share it with the company, and I only need 20%. ”
Putting forward this condition, Gu Cancan also based on his own long-term consideration. First, there are not many classic songs left in Gu Cancan's mind, and she herself does not have enough musical talent to create such excellent works as flammable and explosive, and on the shores of Lake Baikal. Second, Gu Cancan thinks that his image is good enough, and if there is a professional company to take care of business things, he will definitely be able to get a lot of benefits, even if he gives up eighty percent. Third, she wants to continue to maintain exposure, and she wants to enter the music industry and expand into other fields. And when online anchors are not accepted by the entertainment industry after all, this is proven to be true, such as Chen Yifa Feng Timo, even though he has millions of fans, but are there any big brands looking for them to endorse? No. Not only will big brands not look for them, but even those who are as old as the 18th tier will not find them to endorse.
Yang Liu didn't answer for a while, and after thinking for a while, he said to Gu Cancan, "We need to discuss it." I'm in charge of the artist economic business, but I don't care about the specifics. You will be contacted later. ”
After speaking, Yang Liu picked up the teacup and half-squinted.
Gu Cancan's blessing is very good, is this what it means to serve tea to send guests? immediately said, "Okay, Mr. Yang, do you have anything else to do?" I'll go back first. ”
"Okay," Yang Liu got up and took the initiative to reach out and shake Gu Cancan's hand.
After Gu Cancan said goodbye and left, Yang Liu pondered for a long time and made a phone call with Zhang Lu from Taihe Wheat Field.
……
Returning to his room in a daze, Gu Cancan recalled the conversation with Yang Liu from the beginning, and felt that the two of them were really embarrassed to talk, and what they said was really unnutritious......
After a while, Gu Cancan remembered that his phone was still on mute, so he quickly took out his phone and saw that the screen was densely packed with missed calls and unread text messages.
I read the text messages first, they were all blessing messages from friends congratulating me on successfully entering the top eight, Gu Cancan did not reply immediately, and then looked at the missed calls, in addition to friends and family, there were two strangers, looking at the region, one is Beijing, and the other is Shanghai.
It's weird, who could it be? Gu Cancan frowned and thought about it for a while, he really couldn't think of anyone in these two places who would know his mobile phone number, so he left it behind.
Well, there were two missed by Dad Gu Wei, and Gu Cancan called his family first.
The phone was quickly connected, and Gu Wei's kind voice sounded on the other side: "Cancan." ”
"Dad." Hear Daddy's voice. Gu Cancan suddenly felt very relieved in his heart, and the anxiety in his heart for so many days was gone.
"We've all watched the game for a long time, Cancan, you're doing well." Dad praised Gu Cancan a few words.
Gu Cancan was happy in his heart and said, "That's for sure, your daughter." ”
"Hehe," Gu Wei smiled and said softly, "Keep working hard." When is the next game? I'll see if I can arrange a time, Dad will go to Changsha to cheer you on! ”
Gu Cancan said: "The end should be a week later, and the specific program team has not yet been notified." Hehe, Dad, your daughter is very strong, you don't have time to use it. ”
"How's that going to work?" Suddenly, there was a voice from her mother Wang Sufen: "Cancan, whether your father goes next week or not, your mother will definitely go to the scene to cheer you on." Let me tell you, do you remember Li Ying's girl? When I was a child, I lived next door to us, and her family also processed clothes, and she always fought with you, and then her family moved away. I ran into her mom in the city two days ago. You know what? Li Ying also signed up for Super Girl, and also went to Changsha to sign up. As a result, the audition was brushed down, haha. ”
Gu Cancan felt a drop of sweat slip down his forehead, what is it?
Gu Yujiong's voice rang on the phone: "Mom, what's the use of you talking about this." I'm coming, I'm coming. ……。 Sister, can you hear me? ”
Gu Cancan replied with a smile: "I can hear it." ”
Gu Yujiong shouted on the other side of the phone: "Sister, come on, try to get a championship back." You don't know that there are so many people in our school who like you, and someone has organized a young lady fan support club. Hey, hey, hey, I just don't tell them that Gu Cancan is actually my sister. ”
Gu Cancan felt more sweat on his forehead.
"Have you finished your homework?" Gu Cancan said suddenly.
There was no sound over there immediately, and after a while, a complaining voice came: "If you don't bring this, can you still play happily?" ”
The phrase "happy play" was said by Gu Cancan by chance, and then it became Gu Yujiong's mantra.
After talking warmly with his family, Gu Cancan dialed Wang Xiaoxiao again.
Wang Xiaoxiao's mother is a very strong person, which is reflected in all aspects. For example, after Gu Cancan had a mango mobile phone, she knew about it and bought one for Wang Xiaoxiao.
This is very good, and Wang Xiaoxiao is using the same brand of mobile phone at the same time, which feels like a couple machine......
"Laugh."
Over there, Wang Xiaoxiao was silent for a while, and then Wang Xiaoxiao's soft and warm voice came: "Cancan, congratulations." ”
Gu Cancan smirked twice and said, "Watching the show, can I behave today?" ”
The two text and chat every day, Wang Xiaoxiao naturally knew that the relationship between Gu Cancan and the program team and Tianyu was very stiff, and she said curiously: "Cancan, didn't you say that there is a chance that you will be eliminated this time?" ”
Gu Cancan said: "Originally, this was indeed the case, but I met a noble person today." ”
She told Wang Xiaoxiao about the meeting with Yang Liu, and Wang Xiaoxiao could only sigh that Gu Cancan's luck was against the sky.
End the call with Wang Xiaoxiao. Gu Cancan looked at the other missed calls, they were all ordinary friends, so he didn't reply.
Too lazy to reply to others, Gu Cancan lay down on the bed, and now that the dust has settled, he didn't expect to be able to enter the quarterfinals. The quarterfinals are in, will the first place be far away?
……
Gu Cancan thought that the next step would be to shoot VCR every day, and he would give lectures and practice singing. Unexpectedly, I received a notice from the program team the next day: to participate in the variety show Happy Base Camp.
Happy Camp! Now this show is the treasure of Hunan Satellite TV.
Thinking about being on this show, Gu Cancan is really a little excited.
(PS: It's not in a good state today, it's so cold and there is no heating at home.) Miserable. )
