Yang Jingxing hurried quickly and arrived at Hongxing before ten o'clock as agreed with the artist. Because the recording studio was already under full construction, Chang Yiming felt that it was impossible to settle down, so he sent the producer a keyboard to the company.

In two months, 402 will be working on music with artists at the headquarters. Teacher Chang also said that singers should visit the company more often to increase their sense of belonging. I don’t know if this is ironic 402.

Outside the office of the marketing director, Wei Wenshu stood behind the desk and was writing. She seemed reluctant to sit down in order to keep in shape. When people came, she would act like a concierge: "Everyone is here."

Yang Jingxing nodded and walked into this office that had been idle for a long time. He made full use of it today. The space that was originally not very spacious was now the only space left after adding a large keyboard. Eight people would be squeezed into it. Xiao

Qiao and her agent cousin Luo Rui were shoulder to shoulder across the desk. Zhou Shenjian, Sun Yunhong, and Mo Zongyin were all crowded around on the chairs they had found. Huang Weiliang could only stand by the corner of the table, and Zhang Yingyi could only stand silently.

It's for the corner.

Zhang Yanhao, on the other hand, sat comfortably in the director's chair and looked at the people who came in. His body and face remained motionless, as if he was waiting for the person to announce his home address. Under the leadership of the boss, the others just looked at the door and laughed whether they were smiling or not.

, but his smile was not as sincere and enthusiastic as the musicians and artists commonly seen in 402.

"Meeting?" Yang Jingxing demonstrated a more standard workplace expression: "I didn't receive the notice."

Zhang Yanhao rocked his chair and relaxed: "Notifying you is a waste of time. It would be much easier for us to follow Xiao Qiao to see you."

The four directors laughed, Luo Rui chuckled, and Xiao Qiao smiled without squinting. Only Zhang Yingyi was not very happy, maybe because he was not high enough, or because he was a subordinate of Director Yang after all.

Yang Jingxing smiled at the artist and said, "Xiao Qiao, take care of me in the future."

Everyone looked even happier. Luo Rui stood up happily and said, "Take care of me." She looked more like an entertainer in Xiao Qiao's sportswear.

Yang Jingxing felt a little ashamed: "The whole company is alarmed. How long has it been?"

"Just now." Luo Rui pushed the chair farther out and said, "Please sit down."

"I'll give in." Zhang Yanhao jumped out of the chair with passion. He didn't look like someone with rheumatoid arthritis at all: "Where can I eat for lunch?"

"Boss, sit down." Yang Jingxing moved closer to Zhang Yingyi to show his sincerity: "At noon, Xiao Qiao will say it, the boss will decide."

"Say it." Zhang Yanhao was obviously sarcastic: "Your territory is up to you."

"This is all the boss's place." Yang Jingxing said angrily, "Everyone who enters this gate will listen to the boss."

Seeing that the directors were all as flattering as 402, Zhang Yanhao put his hands on his hips, which was a little inappropriate and turned into a belt, and he became angry: "Listen to me? I have one request, and I must cooperate with Xiao Qiao sincerely.

When making this album, we need to strive for excellence. It’s not enough to go to the next level, we need two or three levels.”

Yang Jingxing was under great pressure: "Please take care of me, Xiao Qiao."

Xiao Qiao didn't even look back and showed no body movements or attitude at all.

After Sun Yunhong's expression pleased the boss, he turned to Yang Jingxing and gave orders: "The boss said that we should make good music even if we are in harmony."

"That's what you said." Zhang Yanhao's smile was clearly hidden.

"If you nod, it's a company decision." Sun Yunhong's voice became louder: "Otherwise, I won't say anything."

Zhou Shenjian stood up and said, "Let me convey to Director Yang that the purpose of the boss's meeting just now is to use the highest requirements of 402 to bring out the best of Xiao Qiao so that the new album will be the best. Director Sun said that singers and producers must be in harmony.

I think it’s correct, it means he is beginning to understand music.”

Sun Yunhong sighed and felt inferior: "I didn't get started as early as Director Zhou, and I'm not as studious as him."

Before his colleagues could finish laughing, Huang Weiliang also had something to convey: "Ms. Luo wants to keep a low profile and try not to disturb everyone when she comes and goes, so you should pay more attention to safety. You don't have to worry about hotel rooms..."

Although there is not a single note in 402 yet, other departments of Hongxing are already working on Xiao Qiao’s new album with high requirements and high standards in all aspects.

First of all, of course, the artist department is responsible for the fans. Director Mo emphasized to Director Yang that Mr. Zhang’s capable subordinates, the company’s strong investment and the full preparation of his colleagues, so the early takeover work has been a complete success. One thing to say, Sheng Tian

Without too much obstruction, I could feel the good rapport Xiao Qiao and Miss Luo had formed there. Director Tang Shengfan also took the initiative to help, and he was obedient to what he said. A company that once boasted an annual revenue of nearly 10 billion encountered

I'm afraid it's not a temporary difficulty.

Because Zeng Jin is very high-profile, Sheng Tian's current situation is no longer limited to insider rumors, so fans are very supportive of the idol's pursuit of a better music career. Although Xiao Qiao personally released the news of collaborating with 402 before, it caused a stir inside and outside fans.

There has been a strong response, including a lot of controversy, but it is also a good thing, because in the controversy, 402 was once again acquitted. The rights and wrongs of the "Stand With You" incident have truly formed a public opinion among the fan community, making fans look forward to the singer and producer even more.

Cooperation.

Mo Zongyin once again made it clear that Xiao Qiao's fans generally have high cultural literacy. The new president of the Shiling Supporters Association is also a university lecturer. He even made a series of suggestions to the company on behalf of the fans regarding the future development of the idol...

In the Propaganda Department, Director Zhou's investigation and research planning is more systematic and comprehensive. The work within two years is divided into three major steps, four aspects and twelve small items. To put it simply, the first step is how to preview and warm up the new album.

The second step is how to release a new album and deal with the hot scene, and the third step is how to achieve a long-tail effect... Director Zhou has an insight to share with everyone, that is, those who make strategic publicity think that crisis public relations is difficult, but he concluded that it was

In fact, you have to be extra cautious when fighting against the wind, otherwise you will miss the opportunity or even be unaware of it.

Sun Yunhong was very impressed with his old colleague's experience. He really saw the same thing as a hero. Director Sun took this opportunity to explain to the artists and managers that Xiao Qiao had just joined the company's business department and should be the least anxious. However, there are also many successful experiences in the past.

Some lessons have to be learned. For example, some family members of artists questioned that the endorsements received by the company were not good enough. Director Sun Yunhong admitted that looking back it was indeed not ideal, but at the time no one could have imagined that he could jump several levels in a row in such a short period of time.

Don’t you dare to guarantee? So Xiao Qiao, who has a much higher ASXS, should pay more attention to this aspect. Please communicate with Ms. Luo more from now on. The sales department’s suggestions are not considered by international big names. Although Xiao Qiao is a good agent in some aspects

The contract has not been signed to Hongxing, but for the sake of the singer's overall image, the company will try its best to provide the artist with the best cooperation opportunities...

There was a lot of chatter, and it was already eleven o'clock. The singers and producers didn't say a few words. Finally, Zhang Yingyi, who was at the lowest level, reminded the old guys that they could go out to discuss business and leave the time here to the musicians.

After the sender closed the door and pulled the blinds slightly, the producer began: "The article is very well written."

The singer held the back of the chair and smiled: "Thank you."

Yang Jing walked to the back of his desk and opened the drawer, took out more than ten pages of printed manuscripts with many key points drawn and handed them to the original author: "Today we will follow this first, but my ability to understand the condensed essence of text is limited.

We can talk as much as we want, sing as much as we want, and hum as much as we want. You can also play, right?"

"I know a little bit..." Xiao Qiao seemed to be more concerned about the producer's review of the article: "I have studied piano for several years, but I haven't practiced much."

"Please sit down." Yang Jingxing opened his mouth and took the lead: "How do you learn Chinese so well?"

Xiao Qiao carefully sat down next to the producer: "I was forced to do so. There are many Chinese books at home. My father worked as a translator and editor when he was young."

"Pay tribute." Yang Jingxing smiled: "I read very little, so I asked others for advice when reading your article. Some of the meanings and emotions may not be fully understood... Just put it here."

The singer's article was put on the music stand, and there were many sentences marked with red lines on the first page, which looked very valuable. In fact, most of the underlining work was done by He Peiyuan, because the producer said that those sentences were too big for everyone to read and he didn't care to read them in detail.

After reading it, He Peiyuan admitted that the writing is indeed a bit pretentious, but it is rare for a child who has been abroad since childhood to write such pretentiousness, and some of the things and feelings he said are still relatively real to read, so as a musician who has worked with her, she is friendly

I helped 402 with this favor and didn’t charge any money.

Yang Jingxing had to at least respect his girlfriend's work and read the "score" carefully, starting from the first line of the red line: "The encounter between a singer and music... friends, teachers, lovers... first tell me what you think is a friend, or not

It must be your own."

Xiao Qiao smiled shyly: "I wrote a few songs at first and then changed them...First was Youarenotalone. This song has been with me for several years, and I still see each other occasionally."

Yang Jingxing is not sure, so let’s play the next sentence.

"Yes." Xiao Qiao nodded after listening to a few sounds: "Isn't it a bit tacky?"

"How could that happen?" Yang Jingxing said amusedly: "Public figures should be careful what they say."

Xiao Qiao quickly declared: "I am a big fan..."

She is relatively familiar with her, and for the sake of music, the singer is willing to open up the topic with the producer, and it is a long story. Xiao Qiao believes that making friends is not easy for her, because the family education she received since she was a child is to be modest, tolerant, and speak in a low voice.

But on campus, almost no one, whether teachers or classmates, likes or at least doesn't care about a "quiet" child. If his academic performance is very good, it will become a deductible. And another Taiwanese girl in the senior grade of the same school, although she is in elementary school

I just came here after graduation and my language skills are not good enough, but I am very popular because I am lively and even open-minded.

In the relatively lonely rebellious period of youth, idols have become a kind of spiritual sustenance. This is why Xiao Qiao does not want to get too close to fans, but he still tries his best to influence teenagers with a positive attitude. To clarify this issue, Xiao Qiao has to go

For example, on the first day she went to kindergarten, she was asked about her family situation by a Japanese teacher...

From the first day he came to the United States, Xiao Qiao was all about studying. He had to learn English quickly, and Chinese language was even more demanding. Throughout elementary school and seventh and eighth grade, Xiao Qiao immediately took out the Chinese language textbooks to read, write, and memorize when he came home from school.

, this situation did not end until high school because of the parents' compromise.

The memories of other people's hardships became funny to Yang Jingxing, who even had to confront Xiao Qiao: "Has the young Runtu ever learned this?"

"Hometown." Xiao Qiao nodded: "Mr. Lu Xun is really amazing. The first time I read about Run Tu burying the dishes in ashes, I didn't understand. My father told me many reasons, and I also thought that

Sadness will no longer exist, but the older I grow, the more I realize that people have not changed, but the dishes in the ashes have changed."

Yang Jingxing did not dare to talk more about literature and went back to the keyboard.

Following the melody played by the producer, Xiao Qiao confessed that her memory of Chinese songs before adulthood was only children's songs. When she arrived in the United States, especially after she moved to a better and more American school in the third grade, she was exposed to

It's all American pop music, but the cultural censorship at home is relatively strict. In the eyes of parents, people like Britney have no respect for themselves, and they won't allow their children to attend parties, and Xiao Qiao really wants to

To integrate into the environment of young people on campus, I also want to be a bright, confident, and even slightly sexy older girl.

At first, her family supported Xiao Qiao in socializing as a young person by participating in speeches, debates, and social activities. However, these all required face-to-face communication with people. Xiao Qiao tried her best but did not achieve much. In her opinion, singing is not an individual-to-individual relationship.

, she can be more relaxed when facing dozens or hundreds of people, no matter how many Asians, African-Americans and Hispanics there are, and Americans really like to cheer people, which can be said to have allowed Xiao Qiao to truly integrate into the local area during high school.

Life……

At half past twelve o'clock, when the door was pushed open, Yang Jingxing was playing in a heavy metal style with an electric guitar tone. Although the volume was not loud, it made Zhang Yanhao a little worried: "Don't scare Xiao Qiao."

Xiao Qiao said brightly: "No."

"I knocked on the door, you are so involved." Zhang Yanhao shook his head: "Let's go, they discussed going to a small restaurant."

The singer and producer looked at each other, and Yang Jingxing was in charge of speaking: "How about asking for a leave from the boss?"

Xiao Qiao gave the boss a smile and nodded.

To the two subordinates who didn't know how to stand up and talk, Zhang Yanhao could only helpless: "Then you make your own arrangements. We can't wait until we pack. Xiao Wei, come here..."

Xiao Qiao started and remembered: "Let me tell Luo Rui."
To be continued...
