Chapter 270 Newcomer's Experience

September of 1997 was a month of grand exhibition for Li Qian's studio.

The release of He Runqing's new album "Dream Chaser" not only set a number of amazing sales records, selling for a whole month, but also directly helped He Runqing rise again as a convincing top queen.

Beginning at the beginning of the month, first Liao Liao, then He Runqing, the new album MVs of the two started to be filmed one after another, and they were completed one after another. Although editing, lighting and color adjustment were required in the later stage, the production could finally be completed after various complicated processes. But around the end of October and the beginning of November, these two MV albums will be released one after another.

At the end of the month, after going through relevant approval procedures, Li Qian's studio was officially merged into Minghu Culture Communication Company. After the merger of the two, Li Qian's studio ceased to exist just over a year after its establishment, and was replaced by Minghu Culture, a comprehensive record company with audio-visual production and distribution qualifications.

And the first business signed by Minghu Cultural Communication Company after the formal merger was completed, it reached an agreement with Shengshi Entertainment Company on He Runqing's concert.

He Runqing's concert will start from mid-November to the end of December, and will be held in five cities across the country. The venue, stage, lighting, sound, labor, etc. are all arranged by Shengshi Entertainment Company, but with this At the same time, Shengshi Entertainment Company also contracted all the ticket sales power.

What Minghu Culture needs to provide is He Runqing's singing and all the accompaniment musicians. And the harvest is the agreed income of 33 million for five concerts—in the music world, this is called the guaranteed ticket system.

It was also this Shengshi entertainment company that offered Liao Liao's concert a price as high as 40 million for five concerts, but Liao Liao still chose to refuse because she said she was moving.

Also at the end of the month, Minghu Cultural Communication Company went through two rounds of selection. In the end, Li Qian made the final decision and signed three newcomers for the company, including two men and one woman. The two male singers are Geri Leng from the Mongolian nationality and Zhao Yuan from Shuntian Prefecture. The only female singer is a girl named Zhuang Meiyue who has been drifting north for two years.

... ... ...

Minghu Culture, Conference Room No. 2.

The three newcomers who had just signed a contract followed Sun Meimei to the conference room, preparing to attend the company's monthly regular meeting.

A few days after they signed the contract, this was also the first time they participated in the company's regular meeting, and they were somewhat nervous. When they entered the meeting room, they all sat down at the end of the long conference table, not even talking to each other. If you dare to communicate, just sit there one by one, waiting for the meeting to start.

Within a few minutes, the heads of various departments of the company arrived one after another, some of them said as they walked, and after they came in, they each found a nearby seat to sit down.

After Li Jinlong came in, he walked over to say hello to Gerilan, Zhao Yuan and Zhuang Meiyue, and chatted with them a few more times.

At 9:20, Li Qian walked in with a document in his hand, and many people stood up to greet him. He responded with a smile, and then walked to the top of the conference table in silence, but did not say anything. Sit down in the middle, but chose a seat on the left hand side, sat down casually, then put on the earphones again, while listening to music, opened the file in hand, a pen in hand, not Live in a circle above.

Since he came in, the eyes of the three newcomers have been following him—they had seen him during the second round of interviews and knew he was Li Qian—when others stood up to say hello, they also stood up, But there were quite a few people, and before they could speak, Li Qian had already walked over and sat down, and the three had no choice but to turn around and sit down awkwardly.

But then, they continued to look at Li Qian curiously.

As a well-known big shot in the industry and the de facto big boss of this company, they originally thought that Li Qian must be a big shot in his own company, let alone a tyrant, at least It must be of the majestic kind. But in fact, the discussions they heard from some of the staff at the bottom of the company within a few days, and the facts they saw with their own eyes at this moment, made them unconsciously have a strange feeling - Li Qian was in the company, It seems that there is no sense of existence!

He behaved not at all like the boss of this company, the ultimate big BOSS, but more like an ordinary employee-his popularity seemed good, but after he walked over, he was waiting for the meeting. Those people immediately talked about how to chat, and they didn't have the slightest scruples because of his arrival and taking a seat.

The three newcomers looked and looked, and looked and looked... Li Qian seemed to have noticed their staring eyes, looked in the middle of the document, and subconsciously raised his head to look over. Seeing that it was the three of them, he smiled and nodded at them, and then He lowered his head again and continued to listen to songs and read documents—like a big boy who is a little withdrawn.

The three of them were a little embarrassed, but more surprised.

If it is a boss who is usually very dignified, smiling and nodding at them like this may make people think that he is very approachable, but if he is so approachable to everyone, or even has no sense of presence, it will make the three newbies feel uncomfortable. The place where he lived was muttering - this is too inconsistent with Li Qian's status in the pop music world today.

It is completely different from the painting style in their minds.

However, these top managers in the company seem to have been accustomed to it for a long time.

During the period, they saw Li Jinlong, the manager of the production department of the company, walking over. Li Qian took off his earphones and had a brief chat with him. After Li Jinlong walked away, he put on the earphones again and continued to read the document.

At half past nine, Qi Jie walked in with Liao Liao and He Runqing, discussing something while walking. Jie couldn't help shaking her head helplessly. Before walking to the seat, He Runqing, who was with her, seemed to say something with a smile, which made Qi Jie unable to bear a wry smile.

Everyone greeted Qi Jie, Liao Liao, He Runqing and the others one after another, then found their seats and sat down one after another.

Then, Qi Jie sat down on the main seat.

In an instant, the meeting room suddenly became quiet, so quiet that a pindrop could be heard.

The three newcomers subconsciously straightened their backs.

It wasn't until this time that Li Qian belatedly looked up at the meeting room and saw Qi Jie. He seemed to know that the meeting was about to start, so he put away the documents in his hand and took off his earphones.

Qi Jie smiled and turned slightly to his side, and asked him, "You really don't want to sit in the middle? Then I will sit here from now on!"

The three newcomers were not even willing to blink, and stared straight at the big boss.

However, their big BOSS just smiled and said indifferently: "I don't come here very often, most of the things are arranged by you, you are sitting right."

Qi Jie smiled and stopped talking.

Liao Liao, who was sitting on Qi Jie's right hand, couldn't help complaining, "Isn't he just trying to save trouble? Let you sit here, and he will be more at ease in the future as the shopkeeper."

Qi Jie smiled and turned to look at Li Qian, as if interested in his next answer.

Of course, she was not the only one who was interested, everyone looked at Li Qian.

Li Qian smiled a little embarrassedly, but said: "Miss Runqing is so tired and busy this year, but you see, as soon as she heard that there was going to be a concert, she immediately nodded and agreed. But look at you again." For myself, it’s worth two months to move, isn’t it?”

Liao Liao curled his lips and stopped talking.

The three rookies did not expect that the two bosses of the company would openly attack each other in front of so many people. They glanced left and right in surprise, but found that many people were secretly laughing.

Only then did they realize that perhaps for these participants, this is a very common situation.

At this time, Qi Jie also smiled, knocked on the table, and said, "Okay, stop teasing each other, the two of you, let's have a meeting!"

Because they have just signed a contract, they are absolutely pure newcomers, so many things and many decisions in the company, they simply don't get involved, and even some things, they don't listen much until they don't understand the past and future. I understand, so this meeting made them feel a little confused. But the general meaning is still clear: the main reason is that Qi Jie, the general manager, is arranging the main work of the company in October.

He Runqing's concert will be held in November, and the whole of October will be her rehearsal period. There is no doubt that this is the top priority of all the company's work in October.

Then, it involved the release of the MV of Liao Liao and He Runqing's new album.

The last one, the three newcomers can probably understand it, but when it comes to publishing, they just communicate with many people and have a lively discussion, but they don't understand what they are discussing at all.

Of course, after talking about the first two major events, the third one will be the three of them's turn.

The company had informed them before signing the contract that after the three of them signed in, they would not release albums directly, but would have to accept a six-month professional training arranged by the company—the three of them, although they were all determined after selection. The ones who came down obviously already had good basic conditions, but among them, apart from Zhao Yuan from Shuntian Prefecture, who could barely be regarded as a professional background, neither Geri Leng nor Zhuang Meiyue had any experience in professional music. Education, they can go so far, it is purely a wild way. It's not that they can't go wild, but if they want to go long-term and stable in the future, it is necessary to carry out professional education and training before they become famous and lay a solid foundation for them.

The company has contacted a total of four lecturers for the three of them, and the other party will come to the company in the afternoons of the four days from Monday to Thursday to teach them specially for a period of three months.

After three months, a teacher will be contacted for each of them to conduct individual one-on-one lectures, sort out professional music theory knowledge, and make professional adjustments to their voices, singing methods, and skills.

The three of them are all newbies. The oldest, Ge Rilen, is 24 years old, and the youngest, Zhao Yuan, is just 20 years old. First, he has no qualifications, and second, he understands that the company is doing this for their long-term development. Thinking about it, so no matter what Qi Jie said or ordered, they all nodded obediently, without any doubt.

After Qi Jie finished arranging these things, the meeting seemed to be over, but she turned to look at Li Qian on the left, and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Li Qian thought for a while, then nodded, "Okay, then let me say a few words."

The three newcomers were already paying attention to Li Qian. Seeing him nodding at this time, their curiosity suddenly aroused again. They were about to look at him intently, but they suddenly felt that something was wrong with the situation around them.

This meeting, they came in from the very beginning, and they have intuitively gained a preliminary understanding of the company's power structure through this meeting-apparently, the legendary President Qi who never seems to intervene in the company's music affairs , is the real big boss of the company, because obviously, when she came and when she spoke, everyone cheered up. And Mr. Qi himself is very dignified in front of the company's management.

On the contrary, Li Qian, who they originally thought was the big boss, has always seemed to have no sense of existence from the beginning to the present. On the contrary, before the meeting, he and Liao Liao joked with each other, which made the three newcomers feel that he was more He seemed to be here to make up the numbers—because the management sitting at the conference table looked like they were joking when he was talking.

However, at this time, when Li Qian nodded and said, "Then let me say a few words", the three newcomers immediately sensed that, with a swipe, the atmosphere in the entire meeting room suddenly changed from what it was just now.

Everyone subconsciously straightened their waists and looked at Li Qian intently.

The three newbies were so frightened that they also straightened up.

However, Li Qian touched his chin, and after a while he said slowly: "Sister Runqing's concert, the timing is actually not too ripe, so, in addition to the normal rehearsal...Jinlong, please contact me, It doesn’t matter if you hire people from the United States, or hire the team, professional stage art, lighting, please the best.”

Some people were stunned, but no one refuted.

Li Jinlong nodded solemnly, "Okay, I'll get in touch."

Qi Jie hesitated for a moment and asked, "But according to the agreement, these are what the other party should do."

Li Qian nodded, but said: "But I just read their plan, no, it's not good enough! At least it's not dazzling enough! Specifically, you go to contact and talk with the other party again. It's really not good. We will pay for it ourselves. But the effect must be the best. This is the first time, we can not make money, or even lose money, but we must not smash the brand."

After a pause, he continued: "In the next few years, the performance market, especially the concerts of singers like Liao Liao and Miss Runqing, will be quite active. Let's do it for the first time and make the effect first. That's enough, let's build a reputation."

Qi Jie thought for a while, nodded, and said affirmatively: "Okay, since you think it's not good enough, I'll talk about it over there."

The three newcomers were a little startled.

They didn't expect that Li Qian would deny the previous company's plan with a few simple words, but he was as majestic as Mr. Qi, but he nodded and agreed so simply without any consideration.

Li Qian nodded, then turned to look at Liao Liao, "Start preparing for your new album two months in advance, and make room for next year. If Sister Runqing's national tour can be successful, next spring, it will be your turn." Already!"

The eyes of the three newcomers turned to Liao Liao.

When they first joined the company, it happened that the company was negotiating with the performer about the two days later's concert. Naturally, the company also had a lot of discussions about this - Liao Liao had always been lazy, and rejected the offer from the performer without hesitation. It is said that Even Mr. Qi had nothing to do with her, even though the offer of 40 million yuan for five concerts was really high enough, even though the other party repeatedly stated after Liao Liao refused that if it was a matter of money, then it could still be discussed, Let Liao Liao just quote a price!

But, she's just that person—making music, she works hard. But earning money, running commercial performances, and holding concerts, she is very lazy. But no one can do anything about her, this is what she looks like after Liao Datian.

But at this moment, under the gaze of so many people, Liao Liao seemed to frowned, then looked at Li Qian helplessly, and asked resentfully, "Are you really going to open?"

Li Qian nodded, and said unceremoniously: "Holding a concert is never just about making money. In a larger sense, it is actually about gathering your fans. Do you need me to tell you the truth here?"

Hearing this, Liao Liao nodded helplessly, "Alright then."

The three newcomers were so startled that their eyes almost popped out.

If they only inferred from the previous impressions, they would never have imagined that Liao Liao, who was so lawless in the company's employees' discussions, would give in so easily.

However, at this moment, before the surprise in the three people's hearts passed, Li Qian suddenly turned his head and looked at them - the three people subconsciously shuddered, and quickly puffed up their chests again.

Li Qian looked at them, and said slowly: "The teachers I arranged for you were all contacted by my friends, and then I personally went to the door to invite you. I finally signed and arranged for you to make up these lessons. meaning, I won’t say much, only one sentence, study hard, don’t embarrass me.”

At this moment, the three rookies felt overwhelmed, and hurriedly nodded their heads in agreement. Judging by the meaning, they almost slapped their chests for promises.

Li Qian smiled at them, nodded, and said, "I'm done talking about these things."

Then he lowered his head again, and in the blink of an eye, he regained his image of an unknown clerk—if you only look at his current appearance, if you don't know his name, almost no one will compare him with the newly emerging Minghu culture in the industry The identity of the big boss is linked.

In fact, if it weren't for the simple few paragraphs just now, so many major events were directly finalized, and the three newcomers could hardly imagine what Li Qian, a seemingly low-key guy, actually has in the company. authority.

At this time, Qi Jie nodded, and was about to announce the end of the meeting.

But Li Qian raised his head suddenly again, patted his forehead, and said embarrassedly: "By the way, Gerilan, you are Mongolian, right? I remember that your matouqin is good. When you have time later, teach me? "

Geri Leng was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, then suppressed the excitement in his heart, and hurriedly said: "No problem, we are here when you are called."

"Okay." Li Qian smiled and nodded at him, then lowered his head.

After a pause, Qi Jie said, "The meeting is over."
