Debuting After Eight Years of Time Travel

Chapter 14: 14. A first-line contract cannot measure my value

Views:

Qin Xuerong dragged his tired body back to his residence and threw himself directly onto the sofa, not wanting to move at all.

Wearing a professional suit, her figure looks exquisite.

I picked up my phone with one hand and took a look. There were a lot of @ messages about me in the class group.

I clicked on it and saw that several messages had sent her a link.

"Xue'er, watch this video, do you know this uncle?"

"Squad leader, come out and take a look. Do you know this titanium steel straight guy?"

Qin Xuerong clicked on the link and was redirected to a video on Weibo.

When she saw Wang Qian on the video cover, she sat up directly from the sofa, her whole body became energetic, her eyes shining, and she quickly clicked in to take a look.

"This guy is actually the boss of Haidilao? I went to Haidilao a few days ago, but unfortunately I didn't run into him."

Qin Xuerong complained, "You're hiding from me. Humph, I'm going to Haidilao to eat now."

However, Qin Xuerong stared at Sophie and said confidently, "Humph, this internet celebrity is not as pretty as me."

Immediately, Qin Xuerong quickly packed up, changed into casual clothes, put on some light makeup, and went out quickly!

Drove a sports car to the Haidilao restaurant in the video.

Qin Xuerong was dumbfounded.

I saw that the street where this Haidilao restaurant was located was already crowded with people.

The entrance of Haidilao is packed with customers waiting in line to eat. If there is no room, they can only stand outside.

There are also many young people who come to join in the fun, as well as internet celebrities who want to take advantage of the popularity!

The young internet celebrity came here and wandered around with his mobile phone live streaming, wanting to try and see if he could take a picture of the titanium steel straight uncle boss. It would be best if they could do a live streaming together, maybe he could become a professional internet celebrity right away.

Qin Xuerong walked around for a long time before finding a parking space. When he arrived at the entrance of Haidilao, there were too many people to squeeze in. Tang Feifei at the door was already shouting with a microphone.

"Hello handsome men and beautiful women, I'm sorry, our Haidilao is already full today, and the queue has reached over 500. In fact, only around 150 people can wait. I don't recommend the customers behind to wait any longer. You can come earlier tomorrow! Also, our boss is not in the store today. He doesn't come here often, so if you want to see our boss, don't wait. I don't know when he will come!"

"Sorry, everyone!"

Tang Feifei stood on the steps at the door and bowed to apologize to the dense crowd below.

Qin Xuerong felt helpless standing in the crowd.

She couldn't just rush up to Tang Feifei and say: I know your boss, right

She was just thinking about it!

Two young women came up to Tang Feifei and shouted, "Manager, we know your boss and we have something to ask him. Can you help me get in touch with him?"

Qin Xuerong glanced disdainfully at the two women who were wearing hot pants that showed off their long legs.

Tang Feifei smiled and said, "I'm sorry, both of you. Our boss is busy and can't come. If you know him, please contact him yourself!"

The two of them smiled awkwardly, then quickly turned and left.

Qin Xuerong thought about it, then walked up to Tang Feifei and said, "Manager, I want to apply for a card recharge!"

Tang Feifei smiled politely: "Okay, beautiful lady, please follow me."

After quickly filling in the information, Tang Feifei handed the membership card to Qin Xuerong: "How much is the top-up?"

Qin Xuerong took out the bank card: "Full."

Tang Feifei was stunned and blinked: "How much does it cost to fully charge?"

Qin Xuerong smiled playfully: "Then let's say 100,000."

Tang Feifei blinked again and asked with certainty, "Are you sure you want to recharge 100,000?"

Qin Xuerong: "Sure."

The people who came to apply for the cards later were shocked by the number Qin Xuerong said. They looked at Qin Xuerong curiously. Seeing that she was a beautiful girl and so rich, they all cast passionate gazes on her.

Qin Xuerong nodded and said affirmatively: "Well, let's start with 100,000. It should be enough for me to eat this year! By the way, how much do you need to top up to let your boss eat with you?"

puff!

A woman in the queue behind burst out laughing when she heard this.

Tang Feifei also smiled and said quickly: "Sorry, we don't have this service in our store."

Qin Xuerong also laughed: "I was just joking! By the way, when you see Wang Qian, tell him that I come here every day."

Tang Feifei looked at Qin Xuerong carefully with eyes wide open, knowing that this beautiful girl must really know her boss, and immediately smiled and said, "Okay, I'll pass on your message. Is there anything else I can help you with? If you line up today, you probably won't be able to get a seat. You are a senior member of our store and can enjoy the telephone reservation service. Next time, you can call us half an hour in advance to reserve a seat or a number."

Qin Xuerong came close to Tang Feifei and whispered, "Can you give me Wang Qian's phone number?"

Tang Feifei smiled, knowing that Qin Xuerong might not be that familiar with her boss, and replied: "Sorry, you can ask him for this."

Qin Xuerong smiled, turned and left.

Instead of going home, Qin Xuerong sat on a bench across the street from Haidilao, holding a cup of milk tea with a calm expression, staring at the entrance of Haidilao, wearing headphones, which played three songs on a loop.

You used to be living an ordinary life.

Until Haidilao closed.

Qin Xuerong watched Tang Feifei and her employees go home before she walked to where she parked her car and drove home.

… …

Magic city Tomson.

Li Qingyao was wearing pajamas, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the Huangpu River in front of her, holding a glass of milk in her hand.

"I have crossed mountains and seas."

“And through the crowds of people…”

“I have asked the whole world.”

“Never got an answer…”

The singing sounded in the living room.

Then, the prelude to life sounded again.

“Standing on a tall building every day.”

"Look at the little ants on the ground..."

Li Qingyao slowly finished drinking the milk, then lay down on the sofa, covered herself with a blanket, did not turn off the music, let the three songs play in a loop, slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

… …

early morning.

Wang Qian got up a little early, which was rare. He first checked the computer page that was not turned off and refreshed the background data of Tengfei Music website!

You in the Past, listen 21090, download 20801.

Ordinary Road, 24899 auditions, 23798 downloads.

To Live, 18906 auditions, 18780 downloads.

Overnight, the data of all three songs improved significantly.

and.

Wang Qian saw that both "You in the Past" and "Ordinary Road" entered the top 50 of the monthly original song chart. Although it was very far behind, it was also a good start.

After calming down and washing up quickly, he went out with a little stubble.

We took a car to the hotel where The Voice crew was staying.

He Dongming is already waiting at the door!

"All contestants selected for the blind audition are here to sign contracts today. If they invite you to sign with an agency, just be vague."

He Dongming whispered something to Wang Qian.

Wang Qian nodded: "I understand!"

In his previous life, he was a veteran in the entertainment industry who had been in the industry for more than ten years, so he knew all about these things.

The two entered a large conference room in the hotel. There were already a dozen players sitting there signing contracts. Some of them even brought their agents, obviously they had agencies. Most of the others came alone.

Seeing Wang Qian walk in, everyone looked at him curiously.

After all, Wang Qian is now considered a small internet celebrity, especially in Shanghai, where he is more well-known.

Several people seemed to want to say hello to Wang Qian, but none of them moved, as if they were concerned about their identities.

Zhou Qinghua personally handed a contract to Wang Qian: "Wang Qian, this is the contract with the program team. You don't have an agency yet, right? Do you want me to recommend one?"

Wang Qian took the program group contract and looked at it carefully, then said with a smile: "Thank you Director Zhou for your concern. I am not in a hurry to contact the agency yet, I want to wait a little longer..."

Zhou Qinghua asked, "Want to sign a better contract when you become more popular?"

Wang Qian nodded and admitted: "Of course! I don't want to sell myself cheaply."

Zhou Qinghua advised, "But, you are now in the period of rising popularity, and you need an agency to help you stabilize your popularity. You can't handle it by yourself, and you are not professional enough. You will fall behind other newcomers, and the gap will be huge over time, which may lead to your failure in debut."

Failed debut

Is this a veiled threat

Wang Qian shrugged and said nonchalantly, "It's fine if I fail. I can only go back and run the hot pot restaurant properly."

Zhou Qinghua was speechless.

He asked someone to investigate the situation last night.

It was discovered that Wang Qian’s two hotpot restaurants in Shanghai are very popular. They are basically packed at meal times every day, and the monthly turnover of each is estimated to be more than four million.

This is terrifying.

Two stores, with annual revenue of over 100 million

If your debut fails, will you go back in tears and become a billionaire

Zhou Qinghua suddenly felt that he had no way to deal with Wang Qian.

Wang Qian's appearance shows that he is a very mature and determined person, otherwise he would not have been able to successfully start his own business in his thirties and open two such popular stores.

threaten

It seems like they are just here to have fun.

If we don’t agree, I won’t play with you anymore.

If it gets out, it will affect the reputation of the entire program team.

Zhou Qinghua thought for a moment and said, "What if I can help you get a first-line contract?"

He still wanted to sign Wang Qian to his own company, and it didn't matter if he gave him a higher contract. His own company wouldn't pay too much anyway. The only difference was that he would be exploited a little less.

Wang Qian smiled and said, "Don't worry about Director Zhou making fun of me. I think a first-tier contract may not be able to measure my value."

Zhou Qinghua stared at Wang Qian with wide eyes, wanting to see if Wang Qian was joking.

He found that Wang Qian's eyes were very serious, as if he really thought that the contract for a first-line star was not suitable for his status!

"Mr. Wang, it seems that you haven't officially debuted yet. You are at most a minor independent singer. A first-tier contract is far beyond your status!"

Zhou Qinghua gave a reminder.

Wang Qian shook his head and said seriously: "I don't think it's enough."

Zhou Qinghua was helpless. He stood up and held out his hand to Wang Qian: "Then I can only wish you can really get past the first-tier in the future. Come on!"

Wang Qian also stood up and shook hands with Zhou Qinghua: "I will!"

After watching Zhou Qinghua leave, Wang Qian looked at the contract again and found no problems.

These are standard contracts for ordinary players!

Therefore, there are no harsh or excessive requirements in the contract. It only requires the contestants to obey the instructions of the program director and the selected songs must be filed in advance before the recording of the program to facilitate the program team to contact the copyright in advance, etc.

Wang Qian doesn't need to buy the copyright for the cover song.

He always sings his own songs.

Brush, brush, brush…

Write your name on the paper.

Wang Qian threw the contract to He Dongming.

He Dongming gave Wang Qian a thumbs up, then put away the contract and quickly turned away.

"Hey, Wang Qian!"

Someone shouted from behind and patted Wang Qian on the shoulder.

Wang Qian looked back and saw that it was Ma Yunlong whom he met during the interview yesterday. He smiled and greeted him, "Hello."

Ma Yunlong sat down next to Wang Qian in a familiar manner and gave him a thumbs up. "Brother, you are awesome. The song you sang in Sophie's live broadcast room yesterday was really good. And the two original songs you sang, "You in the Past" and "Ordinary Road", are absolutely great songs. I paid to download them."

"I didn't expect you to be a hidden boss."

Wang Qian: “Thank you.”

Ma Yunlong came up to Wang Qian and glanced at the other contestants who were looking at their contracts. "Did you see that? Those are all trainees promoted by big companies. The other independent singers and musicians are also talking to the management companies. I'm going to meet with the management company this afternoon. What about you? Have you chosen a management company?"

Wang Qian shook his head: "I don't want to sign the contract for now."

Ma Yunlong looked at Wang Qian carefully and asked, "Are you really not going to sign with an agency?"

Wang Qian nodded seriously.

Ma Yunlong was speechless: "Great! It seems that you have given up on winning the championship? Without an agency, no one will help you promote! Unless your ability is amazing, how can you compare with others? This year's contestants are recognized as the strongest in history, and none of them are just filling in the numbers! You saw that Zhu Yan yesterday, she can sing two and a half octaves."

"And that girl is a genius from the Central Conservatory of Music. She can sing three octaves and is a top-notch professional singer. She can also play various musical instruments. It is said that her piano playing has reached the top level. Someone invited her to give a concert but she refused! She is the most popular contestant in this Voice of China. She is signed to Jinghua Entertainment, one of the four major entertainment groups. She has money and resources and is destined to be a big hit."

"That guy dressed like a shemale is a trainee promoted by Tianshan Entertainment. He has gone through two years of professional training in singing and dancing. With the money and resources invested by his company, you can imagine that he will definitely become popular!"

"besides… "

Wang Qian interrupted Ma Yunlong's introduction of the contestants and said, "Okay, I'm not interested in them. I just need to do my best."

Wang Qian stood up and patted Ma Yunlong on the shoulder: "I'm leaving first. Come to my hot pot restaurant for dinner when you have time."

Ma Yunlong was stunned for a moment, then immediately complained: "I went there last night and waited for two hours but didn't get to eat."
