Chapter 17 Media Company Invitations
The five flavors of the meal and the three rounds of wine. Everyone happily ate the barbecue and chatted happily.
Suddenly, there was a shout from far and near, and Chen Mo vaguely heard someone calling his name.
"Chen Mo, I found you!" A middle-aged man in a casual suit and black-rimmed glasses looked at Chen Mo with a little excitement on his face.
"Who are you?" Chen Mo asked with some confusion, he didn't know the man in front of him.
The middle-aged man immediately took out a business card from his pocket, handed it to Chen Mo with both hands, and said. "My name is Wei Yan, I am the manager of the artist development department of Tianyu Media, I was there in the campus competition just now, I like your songs very much, and I think you are also involved in the songs of this classmate next to you, it is completely the style of your folk songs." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Song Yang beside him.
Although Wei Yan is not a big man in the music industry, as the manager of a media company, he also has a certain status in the music industry, and he came to Huayin to discover future music talents in advance, and then sign in to the company for training. He felt that Chen Mo was a musical talent, so he paid special attention to Chen Mo.
He felt that with Chen Mo's excellent performance, not only was he very optimistic about Chen Mo, but there must also be companies or other music bigwigs who paid close attention to Chen Mo. But most people want to wait for Chen Mo to release a few more new songs, after all, it is not so easy to create a genre, if Chen Mo really creates a few more ballads, then they will believe that Chen Mo will not be a flash in the pan.
Wei Yan is still very courageous, he doesn't want to wait, he is willing to take risks, leave some good feelings with Chen Mo in advance, and sign Chen Mo in front of others in advance, he has already asked people to send a contract from the company from the end of the game.
Originally, he was going to have a dinner with the school of Shou University, but he made an excuse and secretly left in advance, and then inquired all the way to find Chen Mo.
Chen Mo took the business card with both hands, glanced at it, got up and said, "Manager Wei, you sit." ”
Chen Mo politely gave him a seat, then found another chair from the side and sat down, and said, "Manager Wei, we are all students, and we are so hungry that we can eat a little simple, if you don't mind, you can sit down and eat together." ”
Wei Yan was a little stunned, as the manager of a media company, he hadn't eaten barbecue at a roadside stall for a long time, he felt that Chen Mo was a little different from others, if it was someone else, he would have been happy to know that he, the manager of a media company, was looking for him, but he didn't expect Chen Mo to be so calm, and he would invite him to eat barbecue with him at the stall.
"Hahaha, don't mind, I just happen to be a little hungry, and I secretly made an excuse to slip away from the school dinner." Wei Yan once again pretended to inadvertently express his sincerity in coming to Chen Mo.
As he spoke, he picked up the barbecue on the table and ate it.
"Song Yang, you go and order some more dishes, and then bring some beer." While Chen Mo was talking to Song Yang next to him, he was also greeting Manager Wei who was seated, acting very generously and naturally, as if the two had known each other for a long time.
"Chen Mo, I actually have something to look for you, so I'll just say it." As Wei Yan spoke, he took out a contract from his briefcase, put it on the table, and continued, "Chen Mo, this is the contract that we Tianyu Media wants to sign with you, which is equivalent to the fourth-level contract of a 5-10 level star, and directly skips the internship signing contract of the newcomer, mainly because I am optimistic about your new style of music, and I am optimistic about you as a person, before other companies and bigwigs have talked to you, this represents the sincerity of our company."
Several people on the side were stunned, since Wei Yan came here, they had roughly guessed the purpose of Manager Wei's coming, and they had been silently watching. While being happy for Chen Mo, he was also a little envious.
Chen Mo took the contract, looked at it a few times, and said with some frowns: "Manager Wei, the lights are a little dim, some can't see clearly, can I take it back and see it again?" I'll get back to you in a few days, is that okay? ”
Wei Yan was stunned for a moment, looked at the source of the light that was indeed a little dim, and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for your call, as soon as possible." ”
"Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible." Chen Mo smiled at the corner of his mouth and said.
"Chen Mo, you can remember my phone number, you can notify me at any time if you have a decision, I still have some things, so I will leave first." Manager Wei left a mobile phone number for Chen Mo, and casually found an excuse to leave.
When Manager Wei got up and was about to leave, he looked at a few people around him, left a few business cards, and said, "A few classmates, this is my business card, your image is very good, and you are welcome to come to our company at any time." After a few polite words, Manager Wei left happily.
Being able to talk to Chen Mo for so long, although he didn't get a positive answer, was happy enough.
As soon as Manager Cai left, Song Yang came over with a box of wine, and looked at Chen Mo and the others in a daze, "What's the matter, why are you leaving, don't eat?" ”
"After the matter is over, let's go first!" Chen Mo replied with a smile.
"No, he just paid our supper bill for tonight, and gave hundreds more, and told the boss to let us continue to eat what we want, and the boss agreed, it's really too bright." Song Yang laughed and said.
"Haha, it's really bright." Chen Mo said with a smile, it feels good to be taken seriously. Looking in the direction of the boss, Yu Guang saw someone coming over again, so he beckoned Song Yang and said, "Song Yang, go and order some new dishes, there will be someone coming over later." ”
"Okay!" Song Yang followed Chen Mo's gaze and got up
Went to order.
“…”
Ma Yinyin, Xu Shuai and the others were speechless for a while, but they had already seen a professional OL female manager wearing black stockings and a white shirt come over, and it seemed that she should have been at the campus competition just now.
Clear-eyed people know that the ranking of the campus competition is very controversial, at least they know that the judges' evaluation of Chen Mo is not so fair, a pioneer of a new genre, the original singer who moved everyone to tears did not enter the top three, and there was a lot of moisture in it. Therefore, there are many people who secretly come out to find Chen Mo's potential stock after the campus competition.
The female manager looked everywhere with her eyes while walking, and when she saw Chen Mo and them sitting on the side, her eyes lit up, and she walked over to this side, her goal was very clear.
Chen Mo and the others pretended not to see it, still eating supper, talking quietly, drinking wine, and chatting.
"Hello, you're Chen Mo, right?" The woman walked up to Chen Mo's table and asked politely, her eyes kept looking at Chen Mo, waiting expectantly for Chen Mo's answer.
Chen Mo stood up and looked at her with a pretended puzzlement.
She immediately continued: "I'm Liu Fei, the director of the artist development department of Cool Cat Music, that's the case, I was also in the campus competition just now, I like your folk songs very much, so..."
"Manager Liu, hello, sit down first, we just ordered a lot, and there are still a lot of them, let's talk while eating." Chen Mo shook her hand lightly, invited her to sit down, and said.
He Shan had the foresight to help with the tableware, move the chair, and let her sit down next to Chen Mo.
Liu Fei was a little embarrassed to sit down, she just came out without eating much at the dinner invitation at school, and when she saw the barbecue at this time, she really wanted to eat it, but out of the woman's reserve, she didn't move her chopsticks after sitting down.
Chen Mo saw that she was a little restrained, so he took the initiative to find a topic and said, "Manager Liu, let me introduce you to my good friends." As he spoke, he took some skewers in the middle of the table and pretended to inadvertently put them on an empty plate in front of Liu Fei.
Then he continued, "Manager Liu, you eat, I'll introduce you to it." ”
Pointing to Xu Shuai beside him, he said, "This is our senior, the very powerful host Xu Shuai, he is the host of the campus competition just now." ”
Then he continued to introduce, "This beauty is our school flower Ma Yinyin, the hostess just now, she sings very well, but she didn't participate in this competition because she has graduated, and she came back as a host." ”
"This is my junior sister who has been holding her mobile phone, Xia Xiaoxiao, who is currently an anchor of Douyin."
"And this girl next to me is my good friend He Shan, this little fat man is Song Yang, and he sang the Anhe Bridge just now. In the future, I will take the two of them to sing my folk songs together. ”
Liu Fei didn't interrupt him, but looked at everyone he introduced, which was her respect for Chen Mo. It's true that the people at this table are very good, and the image is quite distinctive, especially Ma Yinyin, as a school flower, is really not a title for nothing, and as a woman, she is a little jealous.
"Why don't you introduce yourself?" Liu Fei asked comfortably while eating.
"Me, I don't have anything to introduce, but I like to sing folk songs and create folk songs, I hope you will pay more attention to me in the future, and like my folk songs more." Chen Mo said sincerely.
"Actually, you should know the purpose of my visit." While speaking, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the document bag that had not been put away on Chen Mo's desk, and he could vaguely see Tianyu Media, the contract, and a few words.
"I'm not going to be too late, am I?" There is also a hint of something bad in her heart!
"Manager Liu's observation is very good, that's right, this is the contract that Manager Wei of Tianyu Media gave me just now, but I promised him to consider it, and I haven't signed the contract yet, so everyone still has the opportunity." Chen Mo said.
"Oh, that's great, fair play is king!" Liu Fei's eyes kept looking at the documents, and she was silently thinking in her heart, what level would be the contract given by Tianyu. But out of professionalism, he can't ask yet, after all, the agreement is confidential.
She didn't care, retracted her gaze, took out her contract from the bag on the side, and handed it to Chen Mo. "Chen Mo, this is our company's contract, because, the time is too rushed, this contract is a five-level contract, corresponding to a contract of 1-5 level stars, because you are a newcomer, there is no fame yet, but I believe that as your fame increases little by little, the company will definitely give you a upgrade, I hope you can come to my company, and the company will focus on cultivating you next."
Ma Yinyin, Xu Shuai, Xia Xiaoxiao and the others didn't speak, they just thought that she was level five, Tianyu was level four, different levels must be different treatment, Chen Mo would definitely not choose a cool cat.
The corners of Chen Mo's mouth went up, took the contract, opened it, looked at it, picked it up and pointed it to the light source, and said: "I still can't see clearly, this light is not very good, so let's take it back and take a look, and when I see it, how about giving you an answer?" ”
Liu Fei was silent for a while, took a sip of his drink, and asked, "Could it be that Tianyu gave a higher agreement than mine?" ”
Chen Mo didn't speak, indicating acquiescence, and the person next to him didn't speak, only jealousy.
"That's it, I'll take back this contract, we're willing to give a better contract than Tianyu, this is my verbal agreement, I'll ask the company for it later, do you think it's okay." She didn't know the specific level of contract given by Tianyu, but she still had the courage to promise.
Such a musical wizard can't fall into the hands of others, so hurry up and change the agreement.
Chen Mo still didn't speak, just quietly pretending to look at the content of the contract.
"Could it be that Tianyu gave a third-level contract?" Liu Fei's face was a little ugly, the star level corresponding to the third level reached level 10-15, and Chen Mo, as a newcomer, obviously did not reach that level.
"I'm really sorry Chen Mo, my ability can only help you apply for a fourth-level contract, can you think about it again? I hope you can see my sincerity. Liu Fei added.
"Thank you very much for the invitation from Manager Liu, I will think about it carefully, I need to think about it for a few days, after all, you are not the first to invite me, the so-called shop around, right? You should understand! Chen Mo said apologetically, when people invite you, they look up to you and think that you have the potential to become popular, of course Chen Mo will be grateful to these people.
"Understood, this is my business card, please give me a call before you decide to sign a contract, and I will fight for greater benefits for you, okay?" Liu Fei knew that her chances of winning were not good, so she took out her business card and sent one to all her friends.
She knew that the strength of Cool Cat was slightly weaker than that of Tianyu Media, but she still wanted to fight for it.
Liu Fei left, took out a wad of cash from his bag and gave it to the boss before leaving, and left after whispering a few words.
After a while, the boss took a wad of cash to Chen Mo's table and said, "Someone has already settled the accounts for you just now, and you have saved a lot of money, just now this lady left so much money, you can put it away." ”
Chen Mo's expressions were a little strange, and several people rushed to settle accounts after eating a barbecue. After talking to the boss for a few words, he continued to eat barbecue and drink wine and chat.
