In November, the weather in Yanjing is getting colder.

On the overpass, busy pedestrians, traffic jams, and hurried phone calls rang from morning to night, and the scene of the cycle was presented over and over again.

This ancient and modern city changes every year, but every year, it seems that little has changed.

The album "In the Rain" was officially put on sale in major video stores in Yanjing.

In this era of declining physical albums, MP3 and MP4 have gradually become mainstream.

The initial sales of "In the Rain" were not good......

This is also normal, audio and video products were impacted by MP3 and MP4, and gradually left the public eye, the market is getting worse day by day, and everyone can see the decline of this industry.

Unless it's some superstars, popular singers, and little kings, these artists who have regular fans.

Otherwise, who can sell the album?

The owners of the Yanjing video store didn't take it seriously, and after the album was put on the shelves, they just took a big speaker as usual and put it at the door to play the latest new songs on a loop......

In this era, online music is gradually emerging, and they are also keeping pace with the times to sell MP3/MP4, after the sale, some students will come to play the song, and the standard of the song is unified according to five cents a song, and when the song is finished, the machine almost has no memory, they will take the opportunity to sell memory cards to students to make a lot of money......

Li Qiang is such a boss.

He has been running an audio product store for many years.

When I opened an audio-visual store in 02, I made a lot of money renting discs......

Later, when MP3 and MP4 were on the rise, he kept pace with the times and did such a business.

He was actually reluctant to take over the sale of the album "In the Rain".

All Chinese video stores know that the album in December is only "The Original Album of Shining Girls".

After all, the demand for this part of the car CD is still quite large.

But he couldn't help it.

They signed an agreement with the manufacturer, and the manufacturer signed an agreement with the entertainment company, and no matter what, they had to get a batch of "In the Rain" CD albums.

However, there are not many CDs of "In the Rain", so just a few meanings, hedge against the "Shining Girls Original Soundtrack", and it is estimated that you can still make a small profit.

After all, judging from fans on the Internet, the show "Shining Girl" is terrifying in terms of ratings and discussion.

In fact, as Li Qiang thought, "Shining Girls Original Soundtrack" sold well, the first batch of 100 discs was sold out quickly, and the second batch that came in was also sold out, and when the third batch arrived, this sales slowed down......

The market in this area is saturated after all.

After the sales of "Shining Girl's Original Soundtrack" slowed down, Li Qiang had little expectations for November.

"In the Rain", if you can sell a little, it's a little.

With this in mind, Li Qiang pulled out the "Shining Girl's Original Soundtrack" on the third day after the album "In the Rain" was put on sale, and then inserted the title song of the same name of "In the Rain" into the stereo at the door and played it.

No one could have imagined that the number of pedestrians stopping outside the store to listen to the song began to increase, and the number of people who occasionally came in to ask about the song "In the Rain" began to increase.

Li Qiang looked at the four albums that were sold out and was a little surprised.

Not a superstar......

The new album "In the Rain", which is not well-known singer "Ah K", actually sold well.

"Boss, this new song is a little interesting, give me an album......"

Outside, another voice was heard.

Li Qiang subconsciously walked out.

He saw a young man with a tired face, looking at him earnestly.

"Sold out."

"Sold out?"

"Yes! This album didn't make a few ......"

"Oh."

When the tired young man heard this, he was a little disappointed, but he didn't say anything, and he didn't leave the video store, but listened to the song "In the Rain" silently.

Listen, listen......

He closed his eyes.

It's like enjoying the melody......

It's like meeting some confidant.

Different people, listening to the same song, have different feelings.

People who are accustomed to worrying about food and clothing......

I will only find some songs ugly, noisy, not high-class, songs sung by peasants, and even cheesy......

People who are afraid of rolling and tired in society, when they hear some songs, they will suddenly and inexplicably empathize, and then, they can't help but tremble psychologically.

How many days and nights of insomnia......

How many times was hysteria, despair, collapse......

Some songs are just so magical.

"Boss, there's a music video for this song, right?"

"Yes."

"Let's play the MV ......"

"Good!"

Li Qiang nodded and played the MV of "In the Rain" on TV.

When the MV was first broadcast, another guest came to ask for information about the album "In the Rain......

Li Qiang hurriedly picked up the pre-order book and asked the guests to pre-order the album in advance......

……………………………………

Zhang Panpan didn't know Zhang Sheng's number.

She once looked down on Zhang Sheng in her heart.

I feel that Zhang Sheng is philistine, dirty, and in debt, but he likes to speak out and can't distinguish between current affairs......

The sense of superiority of being rich at birth made her instinctively stand at the level of an upper class, overlooking the little person Zhang Sheng.

Flip through Lin Xia's number.

Zhang Panpan instinctively hesitated.

This once good girlfriend has rarely been in contact since he was in college.

She felt like she had changed.

Until now, she still has a trace of resistance in her heart, and even blames part of her failure on Lin Xia's cold sidelines.

obviously trusted and trusted her, "Midsummer That Year" signed [Shengshi Entertainment], which was good for everyone, but he just wanted to listen to Zhang Sheng's words and signed [Starlight Future].

That day......

She was extremely embarrassed in front of her agent Li Yanhong.

She once swore in her heart that she would cut off contact with Lin Xia from now on and never be a good friend with Lin Xia again!

But......

This moment......

Zhang Panpan finally picked up his mobile phone and made a call with Lin Xia.

Because it was lunchtime, Lin Xia quickly answered the phone.

...... on the other end of the phone

Lin Xia seemed surprised, but he didn't seem to be particularly surprised, and he was calm overall.

After a brief greeting and understanding each other's situation, Zhang Panpan learned that Lin Xia was going to write a new book again.

However, Lin Xia did not reveal a single word about what the new book was about, what it was written, and when it was written.

That year, when Lin Xia was preparing to create "Midsummer That Year", she told herself a lot of things and a lot of characters......

The two of them went from the framework to the structure, to the writing and adjectives written......

The two talked almost nothing.

But now, even if Zhang Panpan asked Lin Xia what he wrote, Lin Xia only said simply, probably "some people who are alive".

Zhang Panpan was stunned.

Some of the people who are alive......

Are there still those who died?

Although Lin Xia's tone was very gentle, Zhang Panpan felt that the estrangement still existed, and the estrangement was getting deeper and deeper, and it seemed to have reached the point where it could not be pierced.

In the past, when he heard this, Zhang Panpan had already hung up the phone.

But now......

She is still looking for all kinds of memories, chatting about all kinds of people in her class, and the things of [Shengshi Entertainment] are related to Lin Xia.

But at the end of the conversation, the topic will finally freeze.

Zhang Panpan never thought that the silence on the phone would be so difficult, and he never thought that one day, he would suffer from gains and losses.

Zhang Sheng...... What do you think? ”

"It's fine."

"You have his number, right?"

"Yes."

"Can you give me his number?"

“……”

Silent.

There was a deathly silence on the other end of the phone again, and then, after dozens of seconds, Lin Xia asked, "What do you want his number to do?" ”

"The company leader wants to talk to him......" Zhang Panpan felt a sense of annoyance and shame for no reason, as if the last dignity had been revealed, and everything was exposed in the air.

"I can't claim to give you his number, I have to ask him, and if he says he can give it to you, I can give it to you."

"Good!" Zhang Panpan's heart became even more angry, his face flushed, his fists clenched, and his voice was almost trembling, but he still tried to maintain decency.

It was a sense of humiliation.

Lin Xia hung up the phone.

Zhang Panpan, who was waiting, heard a burst of footsteps from the music department again.

She turned on the computer and saw "In the Rain" on the computer, which had already rushed to the seventh!

One more step forward!

She finally opened the song "In the Rain" curiously and listened to it.

And then......

She wondered how the hell the song got hit.

The lyrics are a little hoarse, the melody is full of depressing fish despair, the high-pitched part is extraordinarily lyrical, like a gust of wind blowing on those people on the ground, and the melody is also very ordinary......

Other than that, there is no advantage.

Probably brushed!

Zhang Panpan thought about the top songs on the charts of major music software, and thought about some shady things she knew recently, and she probably came to such a conclusion.

She suddenly felt that the circle was very dirty, and there was no real data......

The phone rang quickly.

On the other end of the phone, Lin Xia only replied simply.

"I'm sorry, Zhang Sheng said no."

"What?"

"Zhang Sheng asked me to ...... Well, forget it, Panpan, it's okay......"

"What do you want, is it to sow discord? Xia Xia, you tell me, what did he tell you, tell me! ”

Zhang Panpan suddenly became excited, and even his anger could not be suppressed.

"He asked me to tell you: It's a good thing to suffer a little, it's also a good thing to endure a little pain, I can't destroy these good things of yours for the time being, I hope you are grateful for these sufferings......"

“……”

After Zhang Panpan listened, he was instantly stunned.

Then, his face became even redder, and there was a breath in his chest, as if it was blocked in it, and he couldn't spit it out for a long time.

Her whole body trembled, and her red face instantly turned iron blue again.

Finally......

Tears flowed uncontrollably.

Teeth rattle!

Thanksgiving for suffering?

I thank you ****!
