Chapter 134 Invitation from the program team of 'School Starts'
Ten ten in the morning.
Xiaopangdi brought Liao Jiefei to Bamboo Studio.
After Xu Qingzhu and Liao Jiefei met, they first had a meal to reminisce about old times. Xia Yiwei was always accompanying them, and she did not forget to ask for an autograph from Liao Jiefei at every turn.
Du Lan did not participate.
Du Lan has a strong temperament, while Liao Jiefei is decadent and depressed. This situation is not suitable for Du Lan to come forward.
"I came across Teacher Liao's news on the short video platform two days ago. Are you a part-time resident singer at the o2 bar now?" Xu Qingzhu and Liao Jiefei had already chatted in a harmonious atmosphere, and then they tried to ask.
Although Xu Qingzhu also knew that this topic was relatively sensitive, she vaguely felt that Liao Jiefei had taken it lightly and there would be nothing wrong with it, so she dared to speak directly.
Of course, if Liao Jiefei goes berserk or loses control of his emotions, then I'm afraid we'll have to reconsider signing a contract with him!
As Xu Qingzhu thought, Liao Jiefei didn't think anything of it and nodded calmly.
"After all, life has to go on, so I will sing in a bar temporarily to earn some money to support my family."
"Teacher Liao has plans to make a comeback now?" Xu Qingzhu's heart moved, and she and Xia Yiwei accidentally touched each other with their peripheral vision.
"Coming back? It's not easy. I've been out of the industry for more than six years, and no agency is willing to sign me. Now I'm only qualified to sing in bars!"
Liao Jiefei sighed quietly. During this period, he contacted many acquaintances and former resources, but in the end they all hit a wall and suffered a bloody blow.
Everything has changed. He left the industry for six years and when he came back, he had already lost his popularity and value.
After all, in the capital-rich entertainment industry, no one would waste resources on a has-been singer in his forties.
Liao Jiefei had long been accustomed to the warmth and coldness of human relationships, so he didn't pay much attention to it. In fact, he had long expected that this would be the case.
Liao Jiefei was very indifferent to this and had no complaints. He knew that this was life.
Xu Qingzhu and Xia Yiwei looked at each other and couldn't help but smile.
"Since Mr. Liao has not signed a contract with an agency for the time being, would you be interested in joining our Bamboo Studio?" Xu Qingzhu felt that the time was almost up, and immediately proposed their real purpose.
Liao Jiefei was stunned. He didn't expect Xu Qingzhu to sign him. He was staring at Xu Qingzhu now, as if he wanted to read Xu Qingzhu's mind.
"Thank you. I know you want to help me, but I'll accept your offer."
"I am very aware of my current situation. I have long lost the popularity and enthusiasm I had back then. If your studio signs me, I will be a burden to your studio. Since you still regard me as an old friend, then I naturally don't want to drag you down.
.”
Liao Jiefei was very grateful to Xu Qingzhu for taking him in, and was deeply touched, especially after running into obstacles everywhere, but he could not involve Xu Qingzhu for his own desires.
"Teacher Liao thinks too much. Although Teacher Liao's current popularity and popularity are no longer there, your strength is there. As long as you have a chance, your popularity and popularity will come back. And I believe there will still be many fans waiting for your comeback.
Yes, if you don’t believe me, just ask Yiwei, she is your fan!”
Xu Qingzhu didn't expect Liao Jiefei to say this, but she was very touched.
Sure enough, Liao Jiefei was still the same teacher Liao she knew before.
"Teacher Liao, you will never go out of style. Your strength cannot be surpassed by others, and it is irreplaceable. I went to the O2 bar last night and wanted to chat with you, but something happened in the middle and I couldn't.
I'll make an appointment with you." Xia Yiwei nodded in agreement.
Xu Qingzhu is right, Xia Yiwei is indeed a fan of Liao Jiefei, not only her, but also Du Lan.
"You..." Liao Jiefei was really moved.
"Qingzhu, Miss Xia, there's no need to talk about this anymore. I accept your wishes, but I still can't agree."
"Mr. Liao, are you still worried that there will be no market after your comeback? It will drag down our studio, and you will even be criticized by unscrupulous entertainment reporters! In the end, our studio's reputation will be ruined as well?"
Xu Qingzhu knew very well what Liao Jiefei was thinking, and she already understood Liao Jiefei's inner needs, so she didn't waste any time making detours.
Liao Jiefei looked at Xu Qingzhu, and he realized that Xu Qingzhu was no longer the little girl who had just started her career. After several years of experience, her status in the entertainment industry should not be underestimated. Maybe he was really worrying too much.
"Yes." Xu Qingzhu mentioned this, and he hit the nail on the head, so Liao Jiefei had no choice but to admit it.
"Mr. Liao, are you not confident in your ability or your fans? Or are you not confident in your songs?"
"I am confident in my ability. As for fans, I dare not say that. As for songs, my old songs are a bit outdated, and I haven't written new songs yet. Even if there are new songs, I may not be the one to sing them in fan meetings.
Pay the bill! And famous songwriters may not be willing to hand over their songs to me..." Liao Jiefei analyzed his situation very well.
"Teacher Liao is right. In fact, having said all that, the key issue is still the songs. As long as there are good songs, everything is not a problem!" Xu Qingzhu smiled and made the point clear.
"That's right..." Liao Jiefei thought about it and felt that what Xu Qingzhu said was quite reasonable.
"Does Teacher Liao know about 'Fengming Qishan'?" Xu Qingzhu and Xia Yiwei looked at each other and both smiled.
Xu Qingzhu finally showed his trump card.
"Well. It seems that all your recent songs were written by him, and all of them are excellent." Liao Jiefei nodded and said with admiration.
Now that we know ‘Fengming Qishan’, it’s easy to talk about it. Xu Qingzhu continued to speak. “Then Teacher Liao thinks that if he writes songs for you, do you still need to worry?”
"Actually, I already talked to him when I made an appointment with you today, and he promised that if you can sign with Bamboo Studio, he will help you tailor the song."
After Liao Jiefei heard this, he had carefully studied the songs written by Fengming Qishan for Xu Qingzhu, and admired Fengming Qishan!
In his opinion, even a newbie in the music industry can become an instant hit if he gets a song written by "Fengming Qishan". Of course, the performance of the song is incomparable to Xu Qingzhu! But he can't stop "Fengming Qishan" Qishan's songs are so classic.
"This...'Fengming Qishan' teacher is really willing to write songs for me? Didn't he say that besides you..." Liao Jiefei was a little flattered, he was very excited.
If he can really have a song called "Feng Ming Qishan", maybe he, a has-been singer, will become famous.
Although I am not 100% sure, I am at least very hopeful.
"He personally promised me this morning, so Teacher Liao can rest assured. With Teacher Fengming Qishan's backing, what else does Teacher Liao have to worry about?" Xu Qingzhu could see that Liao Jiefei was beginning to waver.
"That's... okay. Since you don't think I'm a drag, then I have no problem." Liao Jiefei looked at Xu Qingzhu, feeling very moved in his heart.
He didn't expect that his humble advice to Xu Qingzhu would actually receive such a generous reward from Xu Qingzhu six years later.
Moreover, Xu Qingzhu had already talked about this, so there was no need for him to worry about it anymore. Since Xu Qingzhu was well prepared, he had nothing to worry about.
Xu Qingzhu stood up hurriedly and extended his hand to Liao Jiefei. "Then...welcome Teacher Liao to join Bamboo Studio!"
Liao Jiefei smiled, stretched out his hand and touched Xu Qingzhu gently.
"Thank you Qingzhu."
"Also, thank you, Miss Xia!"
…
Xu Qingzhu and Liao Jiefei chatted for a while. Xia Yiwei took over the specific post-event work, and the contracts prepared by Xu Qingzhu and the others were based on the level of Liao Jiefei's quasi-king.
Liao Jiefei disagreed with this.
In the end, Xu Qingzhu and Xia Yiwei couldn't resist him, so they had to agree to sign a contract with him as a second-tier singer.
After the signing ended, and it was almost noon, Du Lan booked a private room in a high-end hotel, and they went to celebrate together.
Xu Qingzhu called Wang Zhou back and told what happened to Liao Jiefei in the morning. At the same time, they also mentioned that they planned to hold a simple welcome ceremony for Liao Jiefei during lunch.
During the dinner, Liao Jiefei was very happy and drank some wine.
Over the years, he has been unable to get over the feeling of losing his lover. He finally thought about it and stopped being decadent. However, he found that the current entertainment industry was no longer the entertainment industry he knew before, and he was no longer fit in.
After bumping into walls everywhere and getting a bloody head, Liao Jiefei also wanted to understand, lowered his attitude, and moved to a bar to sing.
But what he didn't expect was that Xu Qingzhu was willing to take him in, and even specifically helped him make a song appointment with Fengming Qishan, which moved him to the core.
Apart from Xu Qingzhu, no one has been able to get an appointment with the song "Feng Ming Qishan" so far. This is his honor.
"Qingzhu, please remember to say thank you to Teacher Fengming Qishan for me. If I have the opportunity to see him in the future, I will definitely thank him in person." Liao Jiefei clinked glasses with Xu Qingzhu emotionally, his words full of sincerity. !
"Don't worry, Teacher Liao, I will definitely convey it to you!" Xu Qingzhu picked up half a cup of hot drink and drank it all in one gulp.
Jingle Bell……
At this moment, Du Lan's cell phone rang.
Du Lan took out his cell phone, and the caller ID showed an unfamiliar number.
"Who?" Xu Qingzhu asked curiously when he saw Du Lan's expression.
"It's an unfamiliar number!" Du Lan shook his head and said doubtfully. "But the number shows it's from the Imperial Capital!"
"Then take it, maybe I'm looking for Zhuzi to speak for me." Xia Yiwei has been very calm about this. She has received too many strange calls like this during this time.
"Maybe it's from Imperial Capital CCTV..."
Of course Xia Yiwei was joking in the second half of the sentence.
Du Lan thought for a while and answered the call. "Hello, hello..."
"Hello Ms. Du, I am Zhao Xiaolan, the deputy director from the "School Starts" program team of Imperial CCTV."
"Ah...Hello, Director Zhao."
When Du Lan heard that the other party announced his identity, his expression immediately changed. His whole face turned red, he was excited.
What did she hear? It was the "School Starts" program team of Imperial CCTV...
Xu Qingzhu, Xia Yiwei and Liao Jiefei all felt something different about Du Lan and immediately fell silent and looked at her curiously.
Du Lan conveniently put his phone into voice playback mode.
"I don't know Director Zhao..."
"It's like this. Our program team feels that "Youth" sung by Teacher Xu has positive and uplifting power and is very suitable for "School Begins", so our program team would like to invite Teacher Xu to join this year's "School Begins" and also want to include "School Begins".
"Youth" is the theme song of this year's "School Begins". I wonder if it is convenient for Teacher Xu?" Zhao Xiaolan's voice came from the mobile phone, concise and to the point.
Du Lan and Xu Qingzhu were shocked when they heard Zhao Xiaolan's words. Xia Yiwei was even more excited and covered her mouth and jumped up.
This is not an ordinary invitation, it is an invitation from the imperial capital CCTV. This is not something you can get if you are famous or have capital.
Especially "School Starts", it targets students all over the country, ranging from kindergarten children to doctoral students, and of course countless parents and friends. It has a very wide audience, and its traffic and popularity are even comparable to the Spring Festival Gala.
There are so many people in the entertainment industry who want to join, but they all have no chance. After all, the status of the imperial capital CCTV is unshakable!
Du Lan also covered his mouth excitedly and clasped his hands together.
She believed that this opportunity would make Xu Qingzhu an instant hit.
Although Xu Qingzhu is already very popular now, if she has the blessing of "School Starts", it means that she has truly been officially recognized, whether it is musical literacy or self-cultivation.
Xu Qingzhu was also very excited. She did not expect to receive an invitation to "School Has Been". This surprise came so suddenly.
Liao Jiefei also smiled, he was happy for Xu Qingzhu.
He also knows the importance of "School Starts" and the importance of Imperial CCTV!
Xu Qingzhu nodded hurriedly to Du Lan. Only a fool would refuse this kind of opportunity. Even if he turned down other invitations, he must still participate in "School Begins"!
"Convenient and convenient..." Du Lan responded quickly, as if he was afraid that the opportunity he had got would slip away, and he kept emphasizing it.
"Qingzhu has no problem, she can join "School Starts"!"
"That's great."
Director Elaine Chao's answer to Du Lan on the other end of the phone was very useful, and she could feel Du Lan's full sincerity through the screen.
"Also, our program team wants to invite Mr. Xu and Mr. Wang Zhou from Modu University to collaborate on a calligraphy and painting live. Mr. Wang Zhou from Modu University and our program team are currently communicating with Modu University. I believe there will be no big problem.
As for Teacher Xu..."
"I have no problem!" When Xu Qingzhu heard that he was cooperating with Teacher Wang Zhou, he agreed more readily than anyone else.
Du Lan cried and laughed.
"As long as the program team needs it, Qingzhu's side will be fine!" Du Lan hurriedly conveyed Xu Qingzhu's thoughts to Zhao Xiaolan.
"That's great!"
Zhao Xiaolan was very happy. She didn't expect that with Xu Qingzhu's current popularity, she would at least have to deal with it, but she didn't expect that the matter would go so smoothly.
"However, for the on-site calligraphy and painting display, we still need to wait for news from Teacher Wang Zhou of Shanghai Modu University. If Teacher Wang Zhou agrees to join, we will need to communicate together before making a decision. Do you think Ms. Du can accept this?"
"This is natural! We have no objection." Du Lan glanced at Xu Qingzhu, who was nodding his head, and responded with laughter and tears.
"Okay, let's settle the matter first. We will discuss it with Teacher Xu after the program team has reached an agreement with Magic University." Zhao Xiaolan was very satisfied with Du Lan's attitude. Her impression of Xu Qingzhu was once again at this moment.
A bit taller.
"Okay, everything depends on the arrangement of the program team."
