It was June, and the outside of Morningstar Entertainment was still crowded with fans, looking forward to seeing idols under the sun.
Inside the company, the blazing sunlight was blocked by the shading glass, and turned into soft colors and fell indoors. The air-conditioning of the central air conditioner was sprayed along the pipes without hesitation, so that the temperature of the room could be maintained at about 20 degrees.
The door of the practice room was slammed open, and a man walked in. He was tall, with black hair combed back, deep eye sockets, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, a high nose, and slightly pursed lips. Some are inaccessible. The suit is neat and straight, even in such a hot weather, the top button is firmly buttoned, and the whole person shows a coldness and abstinence of the elite of the upper class.
Seeing him, the people who were laughing inside seemed to be pressing the stop button.
"Shen... Brother Shen."
Several trainees glanced at each other uneasily, and sneakily left the practice room. There was only a young boy with a delicate face. His name was Bai Weijia. A newcomer to the company.
He pursed his lips: "Brother Shen."
Shen Huai glanced at the messy practice room and said coldly, "I heard from your dance teacher that you haven't practiced well for the past three days?"
Hearing this question, Bai Weijia lowered his head guiltily, but he was not convinced and defended: "I just won the best newcomer..."
"Just a best newcomer." Shen Huai didn't care, "Now, practice."
Bai Weijia bit her lip firmly, and at the urging of Shen Huai, she reluctantly turned on the music, and then jumped up with the music. At the end of the song, Bai Weijia's forehead was covered with sweat, and he was panting. Qi wanted to turn off the music, but was stopped by Shen Huai.
"The new album is about to be prepared, your breath is still so bad, do you want the audience to hear your gasp when you come on stage?" Shen Huai paused, "Starting today, before the production of the new album , and practice two hours a day.”
These words seemed to hit the pain point of the teenager, and he finally couldn't help but burst out: "Are you crazy! Who the hell is on stage now and still turning on the microphone! Practice, practice, practice! You fucking know let me practice and practice. When others become popular, they are all taking endorsements and accepting variety shows, but I still practice every day as before!"
He kicked the speaker fiercely, pointed at himself and shouted at Shen Huai: "I'm traffic now! Traffic, you know! As long as fans see me on stage, smile, and wave to them, they will Obediently pay! You understand!"
Shen Huai watched him go mad with cold eyes, and when he calmed down after gasping for breath, he said, "I hired a vocal music teacher for you, and I will come over in a while. I have a meeting in the afternoon, so I will leave first."
Bai Weijia stared at Shen Huai's back viciously, only to feel that the hard work over the past year had turned into resentment, straight to his skull. People! Who the hell is so patient with what class!"
Shen Huai's fingers trembled and stopped.
Bai Weijia's delicate and beautiful face seemed to be distorted maliciously. Looking at his back, he happily said: "What do you think that afternoon will be! Sister Cassie said that as long as I go over, I can immediately sign MK's endorsement. , she will help me run into the fashion circle, how about you! What have you helped me! You said before that you would send me a song about Qing Fang, which is a lie!"
Fang Jiqing is a gold-medal songwriter. Although the output is not high, as long as it is released, it will be a hit. However, most of his collaborations are at the level of Tianwang and Tianhou, so don't even think about it. In addition, this person has a big temper and has a bit of artist's loftiness. Originally, Bai Weijia didn't have any hope, but Shen Huai never spoke big words, so even if he had already talked with Cassie about changing the agent, he kept going. I can't bear it anymore, and now I can't bear it anymore.
Shen Huai turned his head, and Bai Weijia, who was scolding vigorously, seemed to be strangled by someone's neck, but Shen Huai was not angry. He looked at Bai Weijia and asked softly, "So you think so?"
Bai Weijia said impatiently: "Yeah, in this era, who cares about strength! Traffic is king, you should have been eliminated long ago!"
Shen Huai chuckled lightly, not knowing whether he was laughing at him or at himself.
The quarrel between the two quickly alerted the top management. Shen Huai signed the contract indifferently, ignored the company's compensation, and turned to leave. At this time, the matter had spread, and scrutiny eyes and whispers came from all around.
"Wei Jia really changed agents?"
"That's still fake? Brother Shen, who doesn't know the title of this newcomer's curse! Didn't Xu Anqi become a big hit after leaving Chenxing?"
"But if Brother Shen hadn't dug him out and brought him on fire all the way, how could he be today? He kicked people as soon as he emerged, and he would be too ungrateful!"
"You're not ungrateful, and you won't change when you get a chance to become popular?"
"… "
Shen Huai pretended not to hear anything and entered the elevator.
—
Shen Huai went down to the garage and sat in his car. There was a deep exhaustion on his brows. He took off his glasses and pinched the center of his eyebrows, but his eyes inadvertently glanced at a document on the passenger seat. .
This is an authorization letter for the copyright of lyrics and music, and the name of Fang Jiqing is clearly written in the column of Party A.
Shen Huai stared at the contract, and at this moment, WeChat rang, and the message was sent by Shen Huai's immediate boss, Ming Wei, director of the artist management department.
—The entertainment industry is like this, don’t think too much, you have worked hard this year, I will give you a week off, go out and relax.
Shen Huai chuckled lightly, replied "thank you", then threw the phone aside, started the car and left.
The car drove all the way to the airport, and he bought a recent flight, which landed in Xinghe City.
When Shen Huai arrived in Xinghe City, and seeing the crowds in the airport, he realized that the recent opening of Lu Yang's former residence has attracted rock fans and media from all over the world.
Lu Yang is a legendary rock star in the history of China. Although he died early due to an accident, his name is an unavoidable monument in the history of music in China.
In that era when rock was still a minority, Lu Yang's three rock albums were all platinum albums. Not only did he set records, but he also set off the rock craze in China with one person, and it has flourished to this day. Lu Yang was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame at the 2017 U.S. Collen Awards, the first Asian face to enter the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Although Shen Huai was not a fan of Lu Yang, he still couldn't stand his curiosity and bought a ticket to visit.
As soon as he entered, he regretted it. He still underestimated the nature of the Chinese people to watch the lively scene. Only the heads of people could be seen in the crowd.
Entering the door is a collection of Lu Yang's posters over the years. After that, there are songs released in his life, as well as his handwriting and relics. There is also a 3D projection concert in the small theater next to him.
The man on the stage was tall, with bronze skin, three-dimensional and deep facial features, and looked very masculine. He was holding a guitar and roaring. , unable to look away at all, can only surrender to his singing.
With such stage dominance, it is no wonder that magazines at the time exclaimed him as a "rock tyrant".
Standing in the crowd, Shen Huai was infected by the atmosphere and felt a surge of excitement. The depression that had been in him for a while seemed to be swept away.
After learning about Lu Yang's life, Shen Huai couldn't help but feel in awe of such a character. He originally wanted to visit carefully, but there were so many people that he was swept forward by the crowd.
The staff stood at a high place and shouted hoarsely: "... This is the guitar Lu Yang used in his last concert before his death... Don't squeeze!... Stand back! Don't touch!"
Shen Huai was pushed by someone, but he didn't stop, and fell directly in the direction of the guitar. Amid the screams of the staff, he abruptly controlled his body to turn in a direction, and slammed into the pillar beside him. superior.
Then a sharp pain hit, and he suddenly lost consciousness.
The scene suddenly fell into chaos, and after a while, Shen Huai woke up from the intense dizziness, the noise poured into his ears like a flood, and the anxious faces of the staff gradually became clear: "Sir, how are you? How are you? ?"
Shen Huai straightened his glasses, then waved his hand, rejecting the other party's suggestion to send him to the hospital, and found a secluded corner to rest for a while.
He hit him too hard just now, and now he is awake, but his head is still dizzy. He closed his eyes and rested, and heard a light snort coming from the side.
"That guitar is not a treasure, is it stupid to bump yourself into this for a dead object?"
Shen Huai was a little helpless and replied, "Although that guitar is not a treasure, its meaning is very precious. I don't want to break it."
After he finished speaking, there was a sudden silence in his ears. Shen Huai felt a little strange. He opened his eyes and saw a shocked man standing in front of him.
"Can you hear me?"
Shen Huai was also shocked.
After all, he had just reviewed each other's life in two-dimensional and three-dimensional form.
"Lu... Lu Yang?"
