Chapter 191: Again

The working hours stipulated by Li Qian's studio are from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., a total of eight hours of working time, of which a lunch break and one hour for lunch are allowed at noon.

After all, the studio is newly established, so it’s easy to talk about other things. Anyway, it’s temporarily idle. It’s just getting familiar with various businesses. Therefore, the working atmosphere is almost the same. From Qi Jie, the general manager, to Duan Yuguo The back office manager didn't seem to care too much about it, but he has always been quite strict with the working hours. Even if he is late for even one minute, his bonus will definitely be deducted.

And a group of new employees have just joined the job for less than a month. To be honest, there is no human relationship with each other. Therefore, after someone was late once and was immediately deducted 20% of this month's bonus, everyone quickly We all realized that the studio has very strict requirements in this regard, so since then, no one dared to be late.

The next morning, at 8:50, Qi Jie and Duan Yuguo were already waiting inside the gate of the studio. When everyone arrived at 8:54, Qi Jie smiled and praised , and then returned to their offices with Duan Yuguo respectively.

However, just a few minutes later, the diva who wore sunglasses from yesterday actually came again.

That's right, He Runqing.

Zhou Xueqin at the front desk just sat down at the service desk at the entrance of the studio. When he looked up, he saw her walking in. He was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly stood up, "Hello, Miss He, may I help you?"

He Runqing looked smiling, and took off her sunglasses as soon as she entered the studio door, and asked, "Are you already at work?"

Zhou Xueqin quickly looked at his watch when he heard the words: 8:58.

"Uh, hello, Ms. He, the working hours of our studio start at nine o'clock, which is two minutes away! But... already at work!" He smiled and asked, "Are you looking for Mr. Qi? "

He Runqing smiled and shook her head, but immediately, she still said: "It must be approved by your President Qi, that's it, I want to see your Director Li, but I know that he is definitely not here, and I don't know when he will come. So, I want to ask, can I wait for him in your studio?"

Zhou Xueqin was a little confused when he heard this.

In fact, the studio staff who were turning their heads to look at this side and listening to the conversation between the two were also a little confused-of course they already knew the purpose of He Runqing's visit yesterday, and they had to Said, that is really the soul of gossip burning fiercely. After she left, everyone had heated discussions, needless to say, the key is that almost everyone subconsciously began to pull out the news related to He Runqing, the past, etc. , So, although it's only been one day, everyone already has a new understanding of this famous queen of sweet songs in today's music scene.

But, but...but she seemed to be rejected by her boss yesterday!

Come again today?

And I still took the time to come here, before it was officially time to go to work here, he had already arrived!

And actually said to wait here?

From that point of view, it should not be considered finished until the boss?

At this moment, Zhou Xueqin was stunned for several seconds, and then hurriedly said: "Then... then wait a moment, I will ask our President Qi." While speaking, he had already picked up the phone and called.

Just like yesterday.

A moment later, the door of the general manager's office opened, and Qi Jie came out with a look of astonishment on her face. Seeing that He Runqing was standing at the front desk and smiling at herself and nodding, she couldn't help being stunned, and then walked over quickly.

"Miss He, this...isn't appropriate?"

He Runqing froze for a moment, and asked apologetically, "Will it affect your work? Then... can you arrange a small room for me, and I can hide in the room and wait."

Qi Jie was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Of course not. After all, our studio has just opened, and there is not much business to deal with, but...just, Miss He, your identity and status... how can we let you Waiting here! Do you think this is good? Someday when Li Qian comes over, I will definitely call you, okay? You will definitely be able to meet at that time. If you have anything to say, you can tell him directly ,OK?"

He Runqing smiled when he heard the words, with a slight apology on his face, and said: "President Qi, if it's not too embarrassing, I'd better trouble you to arrange a room for me and I'll wait, okay?"

After a pause, she calmly said: "I know I'm waiting in vain. I have no other intentions. I just want to express my sincerity, so... is it okay?"

... ... ...

Of course, Qi Jie could only open a reception room for He Runqing and let her sit in it.

The floor that Li Qian bought has an office area of ​​more than 900 square meters on the eighth floor alone. According to the planning and design, the half of the eighth floor near the elevator is mainly partitioned and decorated to become an ordinary office. At the back are some recording studios, post-processing rooms, singer lounges, practice rooms, etc., and the entire ninth floor, except for the open-air part, Li Qian plans to renovate into a warm room or outdoor teahouse, coffeehouse, etc., so now The construction has not started yet, but the interior part is all decorated into functional rooms for singers and musicians.

Therefore, the usable area of ​​more than 1,000 square meters, when all the equipment is ready in the future, theoretically speaking, it can be used by about 60 ordinary staff and eight to ten singers-this is indeed a small and medium-sized Record labels are designed to scale up.

At this time, what Qi Jie opened for He Runqing was an ordinary reception room, and after arranging for someone to bring tea and water to He Runqing, she naturally hurried back to her office and sent Li Qian a text message first.

A minute later, Li Qian called.

"How did you arrange it?" he asked.

Qi Jie replied: "She insists on waiting for you, telling me to wait, represents her attitude and sincerity, so I have no other choice but to open a reception room and let her go in and wait!"

Li Qian sighed, hesitated for a moment, and said distressedly: "That's fine, I'll go back right away."

Qi Jie couldn't help asking in surprise: "So, you..."

But Li Qian immediately said: "No! That's what I mean, I can't sign her! But she put her attitude down so low, no matter how you say she is a queen of the same level as Liao Liao, she has already rejected it. She ran here again and waited to see me. Even if I couldn’t get away, I still had to go back to see her if I asked for leave, right? Otherwise, if it spread, it would appear that I’m too arrogant? If this reputation spread, I will stop messing around in this circle!"

Qi Jie thought for a while, and said: "That's fine, then you come back quickly, I'll go over there and sit with her for a while, waiting for you!"

On the other end of the phone, Li Qian let out a "hmm" and then hung up the phone.

... ... ...

About half an hour later, Li Qian had already driven to Anbei Building.

After parking the car in the underground parking lot, he took the elevator up, and as soon as he walked into the door of the studio, he immediately noticed something was wrong—in other words, since the day the studio opened, this was only the third time he came here, supposedly working The studio has just opened, everything is unfamiliar, and the recruits must be novices. He should come over for at least a while, but unfortunately, besides going to class normally, he still has a backlog of work in his hands. Among other things, at least the four songs on Changsheng Records had to be supervised first, so, as a person who hadn't spent much time in the office in the previous life, he didn't think too much for a while. Just did a complete hands-off shopkeeper.

However, when he walked in today, he noticed at first glance that there was no one at the service desk at the entrance.

Then, in the office area that you can see at the first sight when you enter the door, there are actually five people gathered, all of whom are young boys and girls. They are chatting in full swing. Standing or not.

Frowning slightly, Li Qian stepped in.

Soon someone noticed a big boy coming in at the door, and the handsome boy Zhou Xueqin hurriedly got up and walked over. He had a very good attitude and asked, "Hi sir, may I help you?"

Li Qian nodded, smiled at him, and said, "No need, I am the music director of this studio, and my name is Li Qian."

While speaking, he stretched out his hand, held Zhou Xueqin's subconsciously extended hand, and said with a smile, "Are you the front desk? I remember your name is Zhou Xueqin?"

Zhou Xueqin nodded, and then realized, "Are you... Director Li?"

Well, the name of the studio is Li Qian Studio, so everyone knows the true status of Li Qian, the so-called music director, in the studio. And right now in the studio, obviously no one would be foolish enough to impersonate in such an easily exposed place.

So, obviously, this is really the big boss!

At this time, Li Qian smiled, let go of his hand, and said in a soft voice: "You are the front desk specially invited by the studio. Your job and duty are to stay at the service desk. When you enter the door of the studio, you must be the first person you see, right? It doesn’t matter if we are on our own, but when the business of the studio starts to develop, there will definitely be guests coming, so if , When guests come, the first time they enter the door, they will see that the service desk is empty and there is no one, then you say, does our studio give people the impression that it is quite informal? Is this not good? "

Zhou Xueqin blushed.

Li Qian patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I know, you must be very dedicated to your duties. Mr. Qi chose you to be the front desk, and he certainly didn't just because you are handsome, right? So, Coincidentally, you were caught by me, this time you will admit that you are unlucky? Okay? As for the usual things... If you have something, you can change it, if you don't, you can encourage it, okay?"

Zhou Xueqin nodded quickly, his face became more and more red, and his head was deeply lowered.

Li Qian patted him on the shoulder again, and said with a smile: "Go to Manager Duan of the Internal Affairs Department by yourself. Needless to say, I said it, but I felt that I was a little negligent in working hours, so I have to apply for deducting the bonus by myself. All right?"

Zhou Xueqin nodded quickly again.

Then, he barely raised his head and said, "Then you..."

Li Qian waved his hand and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about me, I'll just go in by myself, there are guests waiting for me!"

Zhou Xueqin hurriedly walked back to the service desk at the door after hearing the words.

When Li Qian turned his head to look at the work area again, the remaining four staff members all lowered their heads. Among them, the finance and accountants got up quickly, as if they wanted to go back to their offices quickly.

What Li Qian said just now seemed to be talking about Zhou Xueqin's front desk, but they were less than ten meters away from them, and everything was heard in his ears. inside?

Zhou Xueqin didn't stay at work during working hours, so didn't they?

And... don't look at the boss's words, which seem to be very kind, but what should be said should be approved, but in fact, one sentence has fallen! Moreover, the boss is the boss, it is wrong to be caught by the boss, and he is kind, but it does not mean that he is not angry!

So, go back quickly and be careful in the future!

But at this time, Li Qian smiled, didn't speak loudly, and stopped them directly, "Okay, don't run away, I saw you! Well, you are also very unlucky, and I caught you too! So, do you have any objections to being treated the same as Zhou Xueqin?"

The two stopped obediently, shook their heads obediently, and expressed that they had no objection.

So Li Qian smiled and said: "That's the same sentence, change it if there is something, and encourage if there is nothing!" After finishing speaking, he smiled, waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't pretend to be elementary school students, I don't I need you to be afraid of me, go get busy! Oh, yes... which room is the guest in?"

The accountant Xiao Liu is a girl, she looks very smart, upon hearing this, she immediately said: "Then, Mr. Li, shall I take you there?"

Li Qian nodded with a smile and said "OK".

... ... ...

reception room.

After Qi Jie brought Li Qian a cup of tea, she tactfully left by herself, and closed the door for them before leaving.

When she left, Li Qian looked at He Runqing helplessly, and seeing her smiling, he sighed first, and said with a wry smile: "Sister Runqing, it's not good for us? You're putting me on the fire! "

He Runqing smiled and said: "Young Master Qian, I really didn't mean that. You see, I have also terminated the contract with Sony now. Hua Ge is petty. You know this, and I know it. The Xinda group, to be honest, I I have never liked it very much, so, you see... I really have nowhere to go, so I came here to beg you to take me in!"

Li Qian smiled wryly upon hearing this.

Well, He Runqing kicked out the three giants in this circle with a few simple words! Moreover, several large record companies such as Times Records, Asia Records, and Oriental Records were directly ignored by her, and she directly ranked herself behind the three Big Macs.

Li Qian pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Miss Runqing, I'm really happy that you are willing to come to my place. This has greatly improved my face! But, if you think about it, it's okay for Liao Liao to say After all, we have been working together for a long time. Everyone in the circle knows that the two of us work together best, and... I am not afraid of your jokes. After all, Changsheng Records is still small, and I can't be afraid of them, but you, I want to sign Why don't Sony's Mr. Xie beat me to death? I signed the two queens right after opening, and I can't be angry with people in this circle? Why don't I work together to find ways to trip me up in the future? "

Speaking of this, Li Qian didn't wait for He Runqing to open his mouth, and said directly: "Of course...just because you think highly of me, Miss Runqing, for you, I'm not afraid of them! But, you are following the way of sweet songs, In this respect, I am really not good at it. Frankly speaking, since you are here, I think I can write you a few Chinese style poems. Others... I really can’t do the way you are good at. Right? So, it’s good for you to come here, but I can’t help you, can I?”

Li Qian said, when Balabala complained, He Runqing listened with a smile on her face, without interjecting or interrupting a word, until Li Qian finished speaking and stopped, then she opened her mouth and said, "Let me talk?"

Li Qian immediately said: "Say it, say it."

He Runqing thought for a while, and said with a frank face: "That's what I think. I have been popular for ten years. It should be said that the waves behind the Yangtze River push forward the waves before. It's almost time for me to pass my time. But, I Not reconciled."

"To be honest, I am not short of money anymore. I am not a luxury person, and I usually like to save money. In the past ten years, the money I have saved is enough for me to live comfortably for several lifetimes. Therefore, I come to join You are not here to make money, I just want to be popular, because I enjoy the feeling of being liked and supported by so many fans, so, in today's domestic music scene, I think, there is The only person who can keep me popular is you, only you Qian Shao!"

Li Qian opened his mouth, as if he wanted to speak, but in the end, he stretched out his hand to signal He Runqing to continue talking.

So, He Runqing sorted out her thoughts, and continued: "Yes, I have indeed gone downhill in the past one or two years, but... I don't know if Mr. Qi told you, I am willing to be a newcomer, give me Newcomer contracts are good, I am very diligent, like Liao Liao, like Zhen Zhen, I know they are not willing to accept commercial performances, but I am willing, I used to be poor and afraid of being poor, so as long as I can make money , I wish I could be on stage every minute, I wish I could make money every minute.”

"But now, as I said, I don't care about money anymore, but I will work hard! What I want is to continue to be popular, so you signed me, helped me make an album, let me continue to be popular, I I must be desperately trying to make money for you, the newcomer appointment, the company... er, the studio, you can directly draw 80% of my money, I have no objection, okay?"

Speaking of this, she looked at Li Qian very seriously, with anticipation on her face.

Li Qian could only be speechless and silent.

To be honest, He Runqing's psychology is very understandable. In that time and space, in fact, many singers and movie stars did not lack money in the end, but they continued to work hard. You have to simply say how much they love music and acting... ...There must be this element, but if you want to say that this alone can support their hard work for decades, it is obviously not realistic. The more important point here is that they are used to being in the spotlight. , The life in front of the camera lens, once they return to the status of ordinary people, they will be extremely uncomfortable!

This is like being used to being a leader. Once you retire, it often takes several years to adapt to the life of ordinary people!

Simply put, being busy can be addictive!
