311: New Song
Hangzhou, outside the building. ReadМ
"Produced by Zhou, it cost you money."
Mei Manlu originally thought that Zhou Lingwei was asking her to have dinner together in the cafeteria of Blueberry Satellite TV and then chat about the details of the program, because the fourth episode of "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves" was to be recorded in the afternoon, but she was taken here instead.
"Sister Mei, you're welcome."
Zhou Lingwei smiled lightly, then introduced the last dessert to her, and then said while eating: "After the first episode was broadcast, your performance of "Sunset Lovers" became one of the favorite programs among netizens. They all said that if you don't sing, , is a loss for the Chinese music scene.”
Mei Manlu said humbly: "Everyone loves me so much. I haven't sung for so many years and I don't have any confidence in my heart. I'm afraid I'll forget the words or go out of tune."
Zhou Lingwei asked inadvertently: "This morning, many companies must have sent you invitations to sign contracts, right?"
Mei Manlu shook her head and smiled, and said: "I'm forty-five years old. Where can I find companies that want to sign?"
Zhou Lingwei sent her sweet words: "You take good care of yourself so well, you look as big as me."
When Mei Manlu heard this, she smiled broadly.
Sure enough, women know women best and know what kind of words can please them.
Seeing this, Zhou Lingwei changed the subject and asked, "Do you know Huafeng Media?"
Mei Manlu nodded and replied: "I know."
Although she is not active in the entertainment industry, she has always paid attention to the entertainment industry. In recent years, she has become familiar with the most popular person in the entertainment industry, "Django", and the most popular company, "Hua Feng Media".
Zhou Lingwei said frankly: "Jiang Ge is my boyfriend."
Mei Manlu was stunned. This was a huge piece of gossip. She suddenly thought that the name of the production company of "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves" was "Weige Culture", and that was what it meant.
Zhou Lingwei continued: "He watched the show last night and liked your song "Sunset Lovers" very much. He contacted me early this morning and wanted me to help with matchmaking..."
Mei Manlu now understood the purpose of the meal, and at the same time she was a little confused.
Django wants to sign me?
Just because I listened to a song?
Isn’t it said that Huafeng Media is very difficult to get into?
A series of questions emerged in her mind. The reason why she accepted the invitation from "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves" was firstly to make money, and secondly because she never gave up her identity as a singer. An invitation to sign a contract was definitely a good thing, but it seemed too easy.
Zhou Lingwei continued: "You can wait until you talk to them before making a decision. I will be a middleman."
Mei Manlu came back to her senses, looked at her sincere eyes, and nodded immediately: "Okay."
Zhou Lingwei smiled gently and said: "It is no exaggeration to say that Huafeng's reputation is definitely the best in the industry. You can't go wrong by choosing them."
The line was tied, the bridge was built, and she immediately told Django the news.
After Jiang Ge praised her a few words, he called Li Wei and asked him to go over and talk to Mei Manlu in the afternoon.
As a result, the news that Mei Manlu signed a contract with Huafeng Media was announced on the official blog that night.
"It was too quick."
"This is action."
"Mei Manlu's voice and singing skills have indeed not declined, but she is a bit older at the age of forty-five."
"Look at Mr. Li, who is seventy-seven years old. He can still sing at this age. So as long as Mei Manlu's voice is properly maintained, it will not be a problem for her to sing for another ten or twenty years."
"It just depends on whether the combination of 'Django + Mei Manlu' can create sparks."
"There is definitely a spark, it depends on how big the spark is."
…
"Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves" has just achieved a ratings of 77%, and Mei Manlu has the highest score among the fifteen female stars in the first preliminary review. In addition, Jiang Ge, the hot topic in the entertainment industry, has attracted a lot of attention. .
Such high efficiency has caught many entertainment companies off guard.
Penguin Entertainment: Why is it him again!
Alibaba Entertainment: It has only been twenty-three hours since the premiere of "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves". It has not even been a day, and this can be snatched up. It's a big deal!
Sina Entertainment: The only one who is free, he disappeared while he was in a meeting.
Yiliu Entertainment: It’s a pity, it’s really a pity.
Star Culture: If you have money, you can do whatever you want.
…
Although they are envious, jealous, and hateful, they have to admit that one is a creative genius and the other has a rare beautiful voice. Such a combination is very capable, and even winning the Golden Melody Award is an easy task.

Hangzhou, Hengdian Film and Television City.
After Zhou Lingwei finished recording the fourth episode of "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves", she went to visit the class and asked Jiang Ge for credit: "Can I handle this?"
"How is it okay?" Jiang Ge stretched out his hand and gently scratched the tip of her nose, and said with a smile: "That's quite okay."
Zhou Lingwei looked around and saw no one nearby, so she whispered: "However, I have some bad news for you. Sister Mei was eliminated in the first round of performances."
Jiang Ge was surprised: "How could it be?"
Zhou Lingwei explained: "The voting is decided by 500 public judges. You also know that in this model, artists with higher reputations will have an advantage. Sister Mei became popular in the 1990s, but more than half of the audience at the scene were just born. Or he was not born, so he suffered a lot.”
Django sighed.
It's a given that it's difficult to calm down, but that's the reality in the entertainment industry.
Zhou Lingwei continued: "The main reason is that this time point is not very good. If the first round of performances were recorded today, Sister Mei would have your popularity, and the voting results might be different."
Jiang Ge said calmly: "It would be good to stay until the end to form a group, and you can harvest a wave of popularity. It's okay if you can't form a group. I have prepared a song for her."
Zhou Lingwei was surprised: "So fast?"
Jiang Ge laughed and said: "It's a song I wrote before, and I haven't found a suitable person to sing it."
Zhou Lingwei asked curiously: "What song?"
Jiang Ge smiled and said: "You don't understand music theory, and you can't understand the lyrics and music score."
Zhou Lingwei blinked and said: "I don't understand it, but I can understand it. You sing it."
Jiang Ge listened, He quickly refused, saying, "This is on the set, so many people are watching, I won't sing."
"I don't care, who told you to arouse my curiosity, you have to take responsibility." Zhou Lingwei shook his arm and said coquettishly, "Just sing a few lines, please, speak softly, they can't hear you."
Jiang Ge had no choice but to agree, saying, "Okay, okay, just sing a few lines."
Zhou Lingwei nodded quickly and said, "Yeah, yeah."
Jiang Ge looked around and made sure no one was nearby. He cleared his throat and sang softly, "When the star appears on the horizon, do you know that I start to miss it again? How many loves can only be seen from afar, like moonlight shining on the sea."
Zhou Lingwei had just entered the state, but the singing stopped abruptly, and he said, "It's over?"
