Night falls.

The city of flowers and flowers is tempting those who come to this city all the time.

But......

When you actually step into the city and become a part of it, you suddenly realize that this charming city does not belong to you.

"In the Rain", "Yanjing Night" seems to be on fire in just a few days.

The wandering singers on the side of the flyover began to sing the song hysterically.

The heart-rending sound made the pedestrians next to him stop and watch......

Zhou Guoping also stopped.

The midnight wind swept his face.

He was even more tired.

In his ears, the scolding of the leaders echoed.

He is one of the project team members of the album "Shining Girl Original Soundtrack" album of [Shengshi Entertainment]......

Mainly responsible for content layout, online data operation, fan list control......

[Shengshi Entertainment] sharpened his knives and wanted all the songs in the "Shining Girls Original Soundtrack" album to be slaughtered in a big chart, but a song "In the Rain" came out in the middle.

It was a very embarrassing thing, and the leaders were furious.

The leaders scolded coolly, but the people under them suffered, Zhou Guoping followed the team to work overtime day and night, and they were tired themselves, and they began to become more painful......

But after working hard for a long time, the song "In the Rain" was not pushed out of the top ten, and in the end it could only be stabilized in the seventh place!

The leaders were even angrier......

finally took half a day off, and Zhou Guoping, who was ready to rest, was called to the office again, and while being scolded, he held back his anger and continued to do some work that wanted to vomit.

Several times, he wanted to slap the table, throw the data in the leader's face, and tell the leader that it is not that they don't work hard, but that [Starlight Future] has already prepared everything, but the song "In the Rain" is really good, and it is not normal for him to not be able to kill the charts!

But......

How could he do that?

The words of the leader are always right!

Ultimately......

He worked ridiculously late until midnight again!

The wind blew Zhou Guoping's face......

Zhou Guoping sighed.

Sometimes, staying in this big city is like a hard-working ant that doesn't get anything.

There is no sense of identity in his work, his ideals are worn out, and he doesn't even dare to resign.

When people are middle-aged, the mortgage of their hometown, the car loan, and the child's tuition fee......

These invisible things, like a mountain, weighed heavily on him, overwhelming him.

What was once high-spirited and ambitious has long been smoothed out, and dreams are not only out of reach, but now they have become a joke......

He is getting more and more cowardly, more and more timid, he gives in when he meets someone, apologizes first when he encounters something, and he doesn't even dare to get sick.

The cage of life......

Trapped him.

Trapped him, he couldn't move an inch.

Therefore, when he heard "In the Rain", he felt that this song would definitely be popular!

Therefore, when he saw the MV of "In the Rain", he felt that it was his former young self, and that he used to be another self who wanted to live, but he didn't dare to live because of cowardice!

In this world, there are not many people like him!

Zhou Guoping listened to the song sung by the wandering singer......

After singing, he hesitated for a moment and finally threw dozens of dollars in the guitar case.

Just as he was about to leave, not far away, several wandering singers suddenly started a fight, beating and scolding at the same time.

He walked over and took a look.

It turned out that two wandering singers were fighting for a position......

And the position that was grabbed was the position where "Ah K" stood and sang a month ago.

That position, it seems that once stood "Mozi", once stood "Ah K", and then, somehow, that position gradually became superstitious, and became a good place for Feng Shui.

The wandering singer is still grabbing a position, and the entertainment industry where the weak eat the strong......

Zhou Guoping sighed.

Just as he was about to go home, his cell phone rang.

"Brother Zhou, are you busy?"

"No, get ready to sleep, who are you?"

"My name is Zhang Sheng, and we met ...... in the video store"

"Oh, oh, you got the 'In the Rain' album?"

"I've got it, I'll give you a signed version, where are you?"

"That's embarrassing, the signed version, it's expensive, right?"

"It's not too expensive, where are you?"

"I'm on the edge of the flyover, well, it's the side of the flyover where Ah K used to sing......"

"Okay."

Hung up the phone, and more than ten minutes later, Zhou Guoping saw the young man walking towards him with an album.

Zhou Guoping looked at the signature on the album but did not take it, but looked around, and began to be vigilant in his heart and stared at the young man: "You, you should be more than just a college student, right?" ”

"Brother Zhou, your reaction made me suddenly realize that I had done something stupid, I should have guessed it a long time ago......" The young man was stunned for a moment, and then sighed.

"What's stupid?"

"You're probably from the music department of [Shengshi Entertainment], right?" The young man looked at the lake in the distance.

"Well, sort of."

"Forget it." The young man put the album away, and then his face was full of apologies: "I hope I won't have any impact on your work." ”

"Probably not, [Shengshi Entertainment] can't really send someone to follow me, it's just a professional habit...... I can't betray any secrets, and besides, I can't know any secrets......" Zhou Guoping smiled bitterly.

"Oh, yes...... Brother Zhou, have you signed a non-compete agreement with [Shengshi Entertainment]?

"Signed, what's wrong? Wait, Zhang Sheng, what is your identity! Zhou Guoping stared at Zhang Sheng tightly as if he had thought of something.

"My name is Zhang Sheng, and that day, I was over there, met Ah K, and then ......" The young man began to introduce his story, but just as his eyes looked in the familiar direction, the young man was stunned: "Huh? Why are there so many people over there? ”

"...... over there" Zhou Guoping just wanted to explain, but saw that the young man seemed to understand what was going on, and then took out his mobile phone: "Hey, Sister Shengnan...... Are you free? Here's a hot news, does the company have a team next to it? Take more pictures of the past, it will help the publicity......"

……………………

The 46th Golden Horse Awards has finally come to an end.

"Thunder" is undoubtedly the biggest winner of the Golden Horse Awards, not only sought after by countless fans, but also received some international praise, achieving a double harvest at the box office.

This era......

Anything that touches the slightest bit of international commentary is bound to be synonymous with lofty.

The day after the Golden Horse Awards ended, countless film critics in the film industry blew up the movie "Thunder".

At a glance, more than 99% of the reviews related to "Thunder" are touting the movie "Thunder".

The "Song" that once fought with "Thunder" was gradually marginalized, and there were not a few comments about "Song" in the entire film circle, and the only ones that were searched out were basically a few film critics' cynicism about "Song" and director Liu Haodong......

[Starlight Future] did not officially respond to these things.

After the big changes, [Starlight Future] has been much more low-key, except for recently in the music industry, the song "In the Rain" showed its face a little, and after brushing a wave of presence, the category of movies has almost shrunk into a ball.

But even if "In the Rain" is barely a small hit, the new song list is only ranked seventh, and the music department of [Shengshi Entertainment] is scolded every day because [Shining Girls Original Soundtrack] does not dominate the charts, but the core executives do not take these things to heart.

This little bit of interest.

Not much.

Originally, when the Golden Horse Awards ended, everyone was happy, and [Shengshi Entertainment] also gained fame and fortune, and that was almost it.

However, no one could have imagined that "Thunder" received an invitation letter from overseas the morning after the end of the Golden Horse Awards.

"What kind of award is this?"

Gao Yuan, the director of "Thunder", drank all night at the celebration banquet and returned home drunk.

When he returned home and was about to close his eyes and get a good night's sleep, he suddenly received an invitation from Brazil to his home mailbox.

When I open invitation......

He looked at the foreign language words on the invitation letter and was suddenly confused.

After a closer look, he realized that this was an invitation from a Brazilian film festival that seemed to be called "Southern California International Film Awards"?

He was originally a little drunk, but when he looked at the tall name of the Academy Awards, he instantly sobered up, and then immediately looked at the invitation seriously.

It can't be a double happiness, right?

I just got a Golden Horse Award over there, and here is another overseas award?

After reading it......

He looked up the information with excitement.

Then there was a bit of a dazedness.

There is one thing to say......

This film festival ......

He hadn't heard of it at all!

Just when he was confused, he received another call from another director of "Thunder......

Another director is named Lu Jiansheng, and the movie "Thunder" is co-directed by the two.

"Lao Gao, I just received a phone invitation, and it seems that the other end of the phone is from Brazil, which roughly means that we are invited to go to Brazil to screen "Thunder......"

"You got it too?"

"Yes, wait, Lao Gao, I also sent you an invitation?"

"yes, I'm still wondering where this thing came from......

“……”

The morning sun shines high and far, and I can't open my eyes.

After Gao Yuan closed the curtains, he was slightly more comfortable.

Gao Yuan and Lu Jiansheng chatted, although they hung up the overseas IP and found out that this film award actually has an official website, but they have been in the entertainment industry for many years, they still keenly found that this is a pheasant film festival......

So, they didn't take it to heart and lay down in bed and slept well.

Not long after he lay down, he was woken up by the sound of a phone again.

The call came from his nephew, who is an actor and participated in a movie that also won the Golden Horse Awards, but unfortunately he didn't get anything......

"Uncle, I've been nominated for Best Supporting Actor at an overseas film award!"

"What award?"

"Southern California International Film Awards!" On the other end of the phone, my nephew was so excited that he almost went crazy: "I just said that my movie is suitable for overseas, right?" ”

"This pheasant award sent you an invitation too?"

"Huh? Pheasant Prize? However, they look professional! ”

"Take a closer look, don't be deceived!"

"Forehead ......"

"This kind of film festival, how can a fool be fooled......"

"Uncle, I've actually already paid the money......"

“？？？”

Today's two watches, wilt a little, but not all the time
