A week before Tianxing Dojo opened, the man walked in and mentioned his name, and Cheng Ran immediately knew who the other person was. At the Shanhai Music Festival, record companies from China competed for new resources, and Qin Xizhen emerged as the biggest dark horse. However, the matter was involved because of the famous musician Wang Zhonghua, who was also a partner of the industry giant Yingchi Company, so some well-known record companies were watching from the sidelines. Otherwise, if Qin Xizhen was signed, Yingchi would turn against him and he would get into trouble for no reason.
Of course, there are also companies with strong strength that don't care about Yingchi's attitude and extend olive branches to Qin Xizhen, but only Chen Muyi, an inconspicuous and marginal person who always clamors that "records will die", has become Qin Xizhen's poinciana tree.
In addition, Qin Xizhen mentioned the situation with his agent Chen Muyi in the letter he wrote to Shanhai, and Cheng Ran also knew a little about it.
However, after moving to Chengdu, Cheng Ran did not leave her his new address, which led to a temporary loss of contact with Qin Xizhen.
Yu Xiao said that he saw Qin Xizhen come back when the new school year started, but he was no longer in No. 1 Middle School at that time.
Unexpectedly, Chen Muyi actually found this place.
"Are you Qin Xizhen's agent?" Cheng Ran smiled and let the other person in. Jiang Zhou signaled the staff at the service desk to make two cups of coffee for the two of them.
"Not entirely. Miss Qin is going to set up her own music company. I am now her partner and also her manager."
Cheng Ran looked at Chen Muyi in astonishment, and Chen Muyi smiled shyly.
Cheng Ran suddenly realized that Qin Xizhen was indeed Qin Xizhen, as he had turned the tables and become the master.
People outside were wondering why Qin Xizhen didn't choose a big company, but chose Chen Muyi, who was on the edge. Facts proved that she had a unique vision. Although big companies have more resources, they also have more constraints. Choosing Chen Muyi meant choosing more possibilities and freedom in the future.
Cheng Ran asked, "How do you know I'm here?"
"It just so happened that I had some things to do in Rongcheng, so Miss Qin asked me to help find you. Actually, it's not too difficult to find you. Miss Qin gave me some information and found out that you were studying in No. 10 Middle School..." Chen Muyi reached into his arms, took out a photo, and put it in front of Cheng Ran. Cheng Ran picked it up. It was the eve of the Shanhai Music Festival. Qin Xizhen, Shanan Luomu, Liu Pei, Ning Yuan, and a few others were in the piano room yard of the quadrangle near No. 1 Middle School. They took a group photo after dinner. Qin Xizhen was sitting on the stone bench in the middle in a floral dress, and the others were scattered behind her on the left and right. Cheng Ran was on the right with his hair loose.
"So recently, whenever I have time, I'll look at you from the opposite side of No. 10 Middle School after school. The last time I saw you walking this way, I came over and saw this place..." Chen Muyi looked up and around.
"Student Cheng Ran, so you want to open a theme cafe?" Chen Muyi paused and said, "Have you ever thought about not wasting your musical talent..."
Chen Muyi stopped talking halfway, and when he saw Cheng Ran looking at him with a smile, he stopped talking, "Yes, yes, yes, I just couldn't help it. She clearly reminded me not to mention this to you... or I just said too much."
"This is what happened..." Chen Muyi reached into the bag he was carrying, took out a piece of paper, and spread it out in front of him.
It was a check with four zeros after two hundred.
"Qin Xizhen wants to start her own company. She has purchased a property in Shanghai and is renovating it, so this is all she has on hand."
Cheng Ran looked at Chen Muyi.
Chen Muyi paused, as if waiting for Cheng Ran to digest it, and then said, "I told Qin Xizhen about your situation, and she took out this money, saying that she wanted you to not forget your partnership and that she wanted to invest. In addition..." Chen Muyi then took out a mobile phone and placed it in front of Cheng Ran, "This is what she bought for you. The phone card has been installed. It's a new local number. Miss Qin meant to make it easier for her to contact you, but she is very busy and won't call you often."
Cheng Ran looked at the check for two million, plus the Motorola candy-bar phone, and felt like he was being kept.
A big shot brings over the resettlement fee, and then gives you a mobile phone with a unique number, and by the way, says, "Be obedient."
Damn... the style of painting is wrong!
Cheng Ran really wanted to throw his phone, wondering if he had picked up the wrong script.
What the hell is this plane... Qin Xizhen, have you watched too many TV dramas
There was a strange and dangerous light in Cheng Ran's eyes.
But this routine, moving a hamster is still moving a hamster. After Chen Muyi found him, Qin Xizhen probably instructed him to observe. As a result, he found that he was running the Tianxing Dao Hall. This money-grubbing man started to think about his own industry.
Otherwise, why is she called Qin Xizhen? She helped a figure like Chen Muyi go from being a contracted singer to her partner. She is not simply satisfied with being a singer and is even planning to start her own music company.
Is he trying to make money by entering the music and entertainment industry as a boss? Or is he unwilling to let other capitalists exploit him? This is a sign of poverty and change.
After thinking for a while, Cheng Ran smiled helplessly and said, "How does she plan to invest? The contract has been drafted, it's really perfect."
But I was thinking that with Miss Qin's temper, this bite would definitely be bloody.
Chen Muyi shook his head, "No contract?"
Cheng Ran was stunned.
Chen Muyi laughed, "This is just the first batch of start-up capital. She said she would add more money when she had more money on hand. When you gave her the song, you didn't discuss a penny with her. So she will invest this money, and you can give her as many shares as you want... You don't need to give a contract, just a verbal promise. Even if you say it today, you can change your mind if you feel it's not right one day. She said it's a gentleman's word, but a gentleman's word can also be amended later. The Constitution has amendments, not to mention a gentleman's word.' In a word, what you say is what it is."
Cheng Ran stared at Chen Muyi in a daze. Just when Chen Muyi felt that he had convinced Cheng Ran, Cheng Ran said, "This money-grubber really knows that free is the most expensive thing... How can I give less than that after hearing such words?"
Chen Muyi's expression froze, and he said, "Hey, well... Miss Qin didn't mean that..."
"Okay then, I'll take the money... If I can decide on the shares at will, I'll just take 5%."
Chen Muyi's body swayed, and Cheng Ran asked, "What? Is it difficult to report?"
"Haha, that's not the case, that's not the case..."
"That's it, I've received your call, call me if you have anything else..."
Chen Muyi nodded and stood up. Before leaving, this 40-something-year-old artistic man who looked like a musician couldn't help himself and said, "I'm your fan! I always felt that those works... would become timeless classics!"
When Cheng Ran paused and was about to speak, Chen Muyi smiled and said, "I know, I know, my uncle's uncle's..."
After watching the Suzuki car start to drive away, Jiang Zhou, who had been supervising the waiter, came over and asked uncertainly, "Could that person just now be Chen Muyi from Dongdi Music Company?"
Cheng Ran nodded, Jiang Zhou said "Oh", and went back to his own business. He only stole a few glances at Cheng Ran in between, and after taking a deep breath, he seemed to stand up straighter and stronger.
