Chapter 15 Put the money away, let's do music! (2/2 ask for a monthly pass)
"You have too high demands on yourself! But again, how could someone who has no demands on themselves write so many beautiful songs!"
Du Xun was a little confused about Yang Qian's persistence and didn't know why he insisted on waiting until he could sing before releasing a song, but he still patted Yang Qian's shoulder to express his understanding.
"Brother Du, thank you."
Yang Qian is a little embarrassed, these songs were not written by him, but he will work hard to sing them well and take these works seriously, and cannot bury the hard work of these "predecessors".
"Actually, Brother Du, the method you taught me is quite good. I will practice again when I go back and try to be able to sing this song well as soon as possible."
Yang Qian was not being polite. Although Du Xun used to be a Beipiao, doing behind-the-scenes arrangement, recording and other work, he had studied music, and he did give Yang Qian a more professional suggestion on the technique of switching high notes, which was also
Only then did Yang Qian manage to master this song, which he quite liked.
But after all, the singing skills are not forcefully instilled by the system, and Yang Qian is not yet proficient in using them.
However, the system also taught Yang Qian that diligence can make up for weakness!
What he has to do next is to master this technique through practicing over and over again, and then sing "The First Time", a song that is not even high-pitched, well.
"Okay, since you're not in a hurry, I'll take a little more time to help you finish this song."
As Du Xun spoke, he suddenly reached out and pressed Yang Qian's mobile phone, which was about to scan the QR code on the table to pay.
"What are you doing? Brother Du, I want to give you today's money!"
Yang Qian was a little confused.
Du Xun just didn't want to take his money.
"Brother Yang, forget about the money."
"Why forget it?"
"Since I call you brother, I really treat you as my brother. I plan to help you record these songs for free. Let's just do the same as today. If you can't record it once, you can't record it ten times. If you don't record it ten times, it won't work.
Record it a hundred times until you are satisfied!"
Du Xun heard from Yang Shihan that Yang Qian had just graduated and had only worked for a few months.
As someone who has been there, he knows that young people at this stage have empty pockets and little money.
With Yang Qian's seriousness today, Du Xun knew that the remaining songs would definitely not be finished in a few weekends.
It was precisely because he admired Yang Qian's seriousness that Du Xun didn't want Yang Qian to be embarrassed because of money issues, and then failed to record the remaining songs properly.
"How can that be done? Brother Du, I can still afford this money. It's not easy for you to do business."
"What's not easy? I don't rely on this recording studio to survive. If I rely on this recording studio, I can't survive long ago! You haven't even noticed how often guests come here."
Du Xun told Yang Qian with a smile that the Western restaurant opened by his wife was very popular because it was only one restaurant and it was full every day. If it was a holiday like Valentine's Day, reservations would not be available!
"Meeting Coast is your store, Brother Du! I've heard of this, it's really famous..."
Yang Qian was surprised. Not only had he heard of it, he almost went in to spend money.
It was during the winter vacation last year. He was having a party with several high school classmates, and one of his classmates suggested going to this place. Everyone took a ride there, but on the way, some classmates who had arrived earlier said that there was no room left, and took photos to show them.
There were many people waiting in the sofa area.
"We couldn't help it. We didn't want to wait so long at that time, so we moved to another place. But I heard that the pizza there is very delicious and the crust is very thin!"
Yang Qian felt a little regretful.
"Haha, brother Yang, tell me in advance next time you come, I will ask someone to save a place for you."
Du Xun originally wanted to invite Yang Qian tonight, but Yang Qian said that his family had cooked the meal and he would take his sister with him next time.
"When I was living in Beijing, I saw many independent musicians like you, but to be honest, this is the first time I have seen such a talented independent musician like you!"
"And you are still a fellow from our Hecheng. If you become famous in the future, it will be the pride of our Hecheng! Our Hecheng has not had many celebrities in these years, but I think I see hope in you!"
Du Xun was full of emotions. He wanted to help Yang Qian now, not to gain any benefits from Yang Qian.
His musical dream had long since been exhausted during those years of drifting in Beijing.
Now even if Yang Qian said that he wanted to take him to pursue his dream, Du Xun would not be as enthusiastic as when he was young.
After all, I am getting older and have children...
He and his wife were able to prosper in Hecheng because of that Western restaurant. Why should they give up all this to pursue that illusory dream?
What's more, his voice quality is not suitable for singing, he is just a behind-the-scenes guy!
Du Xun is very satisfied to be able to watch Yang Qian grow up, and to be able to be part of a big star in the future!
"So, give me the money to you, Brother Du, and keep it! What we do is music, not some stinking, dog-eat-dog business!"
Du Xun patted Yang Qian's shoulder domineeringly.
Yang Qian was so moved. He originally wanted to tell Brother Du that he had saved some royalties from writing manuscripts before and it was not too bad. But now Yang Qian suppressed these words and felt that if he raised money again, he would be giving gold to Brother Du.
The general heart is smearing!
…
When Yang Qian returned home, Yang Shihan had already gone to school.
Father Yang and Mother Yang are not as cautious as Yang Qian. Yang Shihan usually takes the bus to school by herself.
"Sister Hanhan?"
As soon as Yang Shihan got off the bus and before she walked towards the school gate, she heard a familiar voice coming from the small shop next to her.
Yang Shihan turned around and saw a thin girl with thin arms and legs standing at the door of the milk tea shop, waving to her.
"Xiaoqing?"
Yes, she is Ouyang Xiaoqing, the daughter of Ouyang Cheng.
Because they were both from the same school, Yang Shihan had gone to her house for dinner with her brother before.
However, what Yang Qian and Ouyang Cheng didn't know was that Yang Shihan and Ouyang Xiaoqing had quite a lot of contact on WeChat and in school! The two little girls got along well with each other for some reason and quickly became good friends.
friend.
Yang Shihan walked over, and Ouyang Xiaoqing asked her if she wanted to drink milk tea. She was here to treat her.
After all, with such a daughter, Ouyang Cheng is always willing to spend money on her daughter, and her mother will also give her pocket money.
Therefore, compared with Yang Shihan, who wants her brother to buy a mobile phone, Ouyang Xiaoqing is really just a little rich woman. What does it mean to treat her to a cup of milk tea?
Yang Shihan was a little hesitant because Yang Qian had just told her this morning not to drink so much milk tea.
"Drink! I want red bean milk tea!"
The hesitation lasted less than two seconds before Yang Shihan waved her hand, as if to drive her brother's nagging out of her mind, and placed her order coolly.
While waiting for the milk tea to be made, the two little girls started chatting.
"Sister Hanhan, didn't you get second place in the monthly exam last month?"
"Yes, don't you know?"
The monthly exam rankings for the third grade students will be printed and pasted on big red paper on the bulletin boards on both sides of the school road. Especially the names of the top twenty students will be enlarged and bolded.
Ouyang Xiaoqing saw it the day before yesterday when she went back to school for evening self-study. She even took a photo and sent it to Yang Shihan.
However, Ouyang Xiaoqing's eyes looked a little resentful at this moment.
"The problem is that your brother told my dad, and then my dad came back and told me. He also said that after my art exam is over, he will ask you to come over and give me extra lessons."
"Hehe, my brother told me too. But so did your dad. As an art exam student, why are you so anxious if your grades are so bad? Isn't the key to the art exam? Your grades are also important?"
Yang Shihan was actually trying to comfort Ouyang Xiaoqing. How could any parent not care about their children's grades?
"I can't say it's very important, but it's relatively important, because even if you pass the art exam, you still won't be admitted if your grades don't meet the standard."
"How are your usual scores? Have you passed the standard?"
“It’s a bit overwhelming.”
"Um, okay..."
The content of Yang Shihan's usual chat with Ouyang Xiaoqing has nothing to do with studying. After all, if a top student always talks to a bad student about study and grades, it is easy for him to have no friends.
On the contrary, what novels are good to read recently, and what news is happening in the entertainment industry? These are the topics that little girls like, and they have a lot of fun talking about them.
After getting the milk tea, Yang Shihan and Ouyang Xiaoqing walked towards the school gate together. Of course, they still had to hide it with their schoolbags and wait until they passed the security check, which was not particularly strict, before taking it out.
Drink and talk.
"You go all out to prepare for your art exam first. Then I will help you with the cultural classes. If you work hard for two or three months, you should be able to get a hundred points."
The top student who usually scores around 650 points in exams said that Sister Xiaoqing’s score line of 200 to 300 points in cultural courses is not too easy...
"Okay, thank you first, Sister Hanhan!"
Ouyang Xiaoqing's mouth is very sweet.
"You seem to be taking the exam for dance, right? Then where will you go to study in the future? The capital?"
Yang Shihan changed the topic and chatted happily.
"It should be Beijing. I don't know if I will study dance or performance. My mother hopes that I will prepare for both. Then the probability of passing the exam will be higher."
"Then you are much better than me. You also learn dancing and acting. You will be a big actor in the future! Hehe, Xiaoqing, why don't you sign your name for me first?"
However, Ouyang Xiaoqing was not very happy after hearing this. She felt a little depressed:
"Actually, I don't really want to dance, nor do I want to learn acting. Dancing was something my mom asked my dad to arrange."
"Then now she asked me to study acting, saying that she knew a few directors and that after I finished the exam, I could join the crew and film."
"But compared to dancing and acting, I want to sing more!"
