118. Ambition, Audition(1/2)

Wang Xiao looked surprised and looked at Zhu Ziqi before saying, "Well, we are about to go to the recording studio, right next to the Conservatory of Music. If you come here now, we will wait for you here!"

Zhang Yufeng agreed: "Okay, we'll be here soon."

After saying that, Zhang Yufeng hung up the phone, and he turned his back and didn't say what he was doing when he was looking for Wang Xiao.

However, Wang Xiao also roughly knew what the other party came to do for him.

One of the other party is the general manager of Shenteng Music and the other is the music director. It must be related to music. I think of the recent hype of the new Voice.

Wang Xiao knew that it was most likely because of the invitation from the Voice!

"Ziqi, there will be a distinguished guest coming soon. One is the general manager of Shenteng Music, and the other is Xu Jing and Mr. Xu."

Wang Xiao said seriously to Zhu Ziqi.

Zhu Ziqi was a little surprised, and then returned to normal: "I thought of it! Last time Mr. Xu publicly invited you on Weibo, you politely refused. He may have been examining you. Yesterday, he saw you so popular on the Internet. Whether it is due to your strength or your current popularity and traffic, invitations are the best choice!"

Wang Xiao nodded slightly.

Zhu Ziqi continued: "You may not know that I have received many invitations to participate in variety shows on Weibo and Q. There are at least five or six record companies and agency companies that I have temporarily rejected. Have you ever thought about the recent release of albums, records, or signing a big-name agency?"

After eating the buns, Wang Xiao shook his head and said, "I have no idea for the time being, and I have you as my agent, so forget about the big-name agency. I am a newcomer and I will be a cannon fodder when I go!"

Zhu Ziqi smiled and said, "That's because you underestimate you too much. According to the invitations sent by the two brokerage companies I have come into contact with, their sincerity is pretty good, they are optimistic about your future in development, and have given a lot of promises. You are no longer a pure newcomer now, and your popularity is no less than third-tier stars. Many second-tier stars still need to be hyped up to the top ten on Weibo. You can now rely on your own works and fans to support you."

Wang Xiao smiled and shook his head: "Forget it, it's great for us to do this. If we go to the agency, we will still be subject to restrictions. We are not so free, and we are unhappy."

Zhu Ziqi: "Okay, let it go!"

The two walked to Li Tianzhi's recording studio.

Li Tianzhi was standing at the door and looking around. When he saw Wang Xiao and Zhu Ziqi, he quickly turned around and shouted, and then an old man with a slightly fat figure walked out, wearing a suit, looking a little like Li Tianzhi.

"Wang Xiao, Ziqi, you are here, I'll introduce it to you."

Li Tianzhi said to Wang Xiao and Zhu Ziqi with a little nervousness: "This is my father."

The old man glared at Li Tianzhi, then stretched out his hand at Wang Xiao: "Hello, I am Li Qingyuan. I have heard Li Tianzhi say that he met a music genius, and I didn't believe it before. In the past few days, I have watched your live broadcast specifically and found that you are even more powerful than he said."

Wang Xiao said politely: "Where is Mr. Li who praised it."

Li Qingyuan: "No, I'm telling the truth! You are amazing, so I'll visit you today."

Wang Xiao: "I dare not take a visit."

Li Qingyuan shook hands with Zhu Ziqi again: "Hello, I heard that Wang Xiao has a virtuous supporter. When I see you today, it is indeed worthy of your reputation."

Zhu Ziqi also smiled and said, "Mr. Li has been awarded. We have just entered the industry. Please forgive me if there is anything wrong with it."

Zhu Ziqi has room for speech, so she put it here first. If she offends someone later, she will have room for relief. I have just entered the industry and don’t understand!

Li Qingyuan looked at Zhu Ziqi deeply and knew that this young and beautiful woman was not easy to deal with: "Haha, I'm here to talk to you about cooperation with you, each with my own position, so there is no right or wrong."

Wang Xiao and Zhu Ziqi looked at each other and thought to themselves.

People who are far away must not just talk to each other for a while.

It seems that the live performance last night caused a great response!

It is absolutely amazing to be able to rely on yourself to attract nearly two million people to watch.

Many industry insiders have taken action for Wang Xiao, wanting to control this popularity traffic.

Seeing that the three of them were talking at the door, Li Tianzhi hurriedly said, "Dad, Wang Xiao, Ziqi, go in and talk."

Li Qingyuan invited, "You two, please, please, there are some important things to talk to you."

Wang Xiao and Zhu Ziqi walked in politely with Li Qingyuan.

Li Tianzhi closed the door directly and was closed for now.

The four of them sat on the square table in the living room, and the atmosphere was a little serious.

Wang Xiao and Zhu Ziqi sat together, looking relaxed, anyway, they had no desires or requests for the time being.

Li Qingyuan sat in the middle and Li Tianzhi sat next to him, and both father and son kept their expressions serious.

Li Qingyuan personally poured a cup of tea for Wang Xiao and Zhu Ziqi, and said with a smile: "Actually, Li Tianzhi went home to see me more than a week ago and asked me to sign a contract with an anchor and release an album. I refused without thinking about it, and scolded the boy. This guy is in his thirties and has no sign of a good appearance all day."

Wang Xiao and Zhu Ziqi smiled together, took the tea and said thank you, and then stopped talking.

If you give an online celebrity anchor an album, it will indeed make many professionals laugh at it.

Li Qingyuan continued: "Two days ago, when I was following the information on Weibo platform, I suddenly saw your message from Wang Xiao and remembered the proposal given to me by Li Tianzhi. So I followed it and found that your talent is indeed very good, beyond my imagination. By the way, I think many people will have doubts. The songs you sing are really your own original works?"

Li Qingyuan asked many people questions directly and bluntly.

Li Tianzhi couldn't stop asking, and it was too rude to ask this!

Because, since Wang Xiao became famous in Chengdu half a month ago, the speed of publishing new songs has been too fast, almost a new song a day, and the most important thing is that every song is a rare and good song, including many classic songs that can be sung for many years.

Such classic songs are not common even when they were at the peak of Chinese music more than ten or twenty years ago.

Many people don’t believe that this is a work created by Wang Xiao alone, and there should be a studio behind it.

So, on Wang Xiao’s Q and Weibo private messages, a large number of people ask him this question every day, and even want to spend a lot of money to contact the creative studio behind him, etc.!

Wang Xiao looked directly into Li Qingyuan's gaze and replied confidently: "Yes, these works are indeed created by myself. I also said during the live broadcast before that I only sing my own songs. If I can't write a new song one day, I may quit the live broadcast industry."

Li Qingyuan could see absolute confidence in Wang Xiao's eyes. With his experience, he knew that Wang Xiao was telling the truth. He nodded and said seriously: "Then you are the most powerful musician I have seen in the past ten years."

Wang Xiao smiled: "It's too much."

Li Qingyuan shook his head: "It's not an over-reward, it's the truth. If it were ten years ago, twenty years ago, there were still many musicians like you, who focused on making music and were proficient in everything. But there were almost no one in the past ten years. So, have you ever thought about letting your music be heard by more people? The anchor circle is too small after all, and it's wasted your talent."

"You have been at the peak of the anchor circle recently. I think you should have noticed that even if you are already the most powerful anchor, it is nothing in the entire music field and entertainment circle, and your influence is limited."

Wang Xiao: "Well, it's not bad, internet celebrity anchors, it's indeed a profession that is not accepted by most people! I have also heard that the entertainment industry is more discriminatory to anchors and internet celebrities."

It is rumored that last year, Xiao Mushroom was invited to participate in a variety show with high ratings. I thought it was a pedal to step into the entertainment industry, but when I went there, I was a small character. The camera only gave some deflection angles, and the interaction with others was very small. Only the host interacted with her occasionally, and other stars basically ignored her.

A DJ who was extremely famous for his call to Mai was once very popular. However, he felt inferior and looked down on his profession. When he participated in a variety show, he was called Mai Ge, and felt that he had been hurt by his self-esteem, causing trouble for the other party to apologize, and asked the other party to ignore him at all and did not treat him as a level at all.

The ending of this kind of Internet-addicted boy with an abnormal IQ is actually already destined. People with abnormal minds stand up, the faster they die. They will not make money in a year and have to do some messes, and they will eventually be completely banned. Now many people have forgotten that they have this number of people. They were the number one live broadcaster who could get tens of millions of appearance fees back then, and the appearance fee is no lower than that of second-tier stars.

The anchor internet celebrities have been on the verge of the entertainment industry, but they are at the bottom of the contempt chain in the entertainment industry. The serious celebrities do not regard the anchor internet celebrities as people in their circle.

This is also one of the reasons why Wang Xiao has not entered the entertainment industry for a long time.

Since you will be excluded after going there, and it is not an exclusion of one or two people, but an exclusion and contempt of the entire industry circle!

Then, wait until my strength is strong enough before going, you can't help but exclude me.

When Li Qingyuan saw Wang Xiao having ambition, he sighed slightly in his heart, knowing that his trip might be in vain: "When I was young, I was also a literary youth, and I liked music. Then I worked with my friends to tinker with a record company and slowly became a businessman. Although no one knows about my record company over the years, our foundation is still there and the distribution channels are still sound!"

"Wang Xiao, you have sang more than a dozen good songs that are classic. It is a waste to just spread it online. I think it should be made into an album and distributed to the whole country so that people across the country can hear your music!"

These words are similar to what Li Tianzhi said before.

Wang Xiao thought in his heart.

He is not very repulsive about releasing albums.

But he wanted to become a hit, and he wanted to establish his position with an album.

Li Tianzhi interrupted and said, "Dad, you might as well pay for it and let Wang Xiao and I start a company together."

Li Qingyuan waved his hand and asked Li Tianzhi to stop.

Zhu Ziqi didn't know Wang Xiao's specific thoughts, so she remained silent for the time being.

Wang Xiao said softly: "I had a record company called Dale before and said I wanted to sign me and release an album for me, but I refused at the time."

Li Qingyuan nodded gently: "Dale is an old record company with strong strength, but in recent years, it has begun to transform into a comprehensive entertainment group, learn from the trainee system abroad, and starts to train trainees by themselves. It has achieved success in the past two years. They are no longer a pure record company. If you just want to concentrate on making music, Dale is not a good partner."

Wang Xiao: "Actually, I like Li Tianzhi's previous proposal more."

Li Qingyuan looked at Li Tianzhi and knew what his son’s proposal was. He immediately asked, “Do you want to start a record company with him?”

Wang Xiao: "If you want to make a record, why don't you open a company by yourself?"

If possible, Wang Xiao wanted to open a company by himself, but he knew that it was impossible. He had no connections and no distribution channels alone!

Li Tianzhi has a good relationship with him, and this person is relatively pure. He doesn't care about his clothes all day long. He doesn't go to the company at home and plays music here alone.

Li Tianzhi also laughed and said, "I've said it a long time ago."

Li Qingyuan was silent for a moment: "You two can start a company together, but we have to take control."

Wang Xiao laughed and said, "Then let it go!"

Li Qingyuan fell silent again and looked at Wang Xiao carefully, feeling that the young man's ambition was really great.

Li Tianzhi: "It doesn't matter if you let Wang Xiao hold the shares. Dad, give Wang Xiao 60% of the shares, and we 40% of the shares, isn't it good?"

Li Qingyuan glared at his mentally retarded son, and then said to Wang Xiao: "We will discuss this matter again. So, according to Mr. Wang Xiao, you mean that you do not accept any record contracts, and just want to start a company in partnership and make your own album?"

Wang Xiao nodded: "Well, that's what I mean. I like to control my own destiny and don't want to sell myself to others casually, and you may lose a lot in the end!"

In recent years, all kinds of idiot battles between big-name stars and old bosses have never stopped.

At the beginning, the two sides had a cooperative relationship, but the artist was cultivated and the old boss had an enemy who had a dispute over interests.

But if the company holds a contract, it can steadily suppress you. If you are exhausted, others will also arrange more wages for you to squeeze out the best interests.
