Chapter 423: We can only make do for a while longer
After gently closing the office door, Nana walked to the desk:
"Brother Qiang, who is this blind person who offended you and made you so angry?"
At this time, Hu Rongqiang was like an active volcano about to erupt.
I remember a similar situation happened more than a year ago. A million-dollar deal that had been negotiated was inexplicably snatched away by a competitor.
Hu Rongqiang waved to his secretary:
"We'll talk about this later. Come on, Nana, help me put out the fire first..."
...
"call!"
Three minutes later, Hu Rongqiang leaned back in his chair and felt that the whole world was more harmonious.
Nana reached out and took out a few tissues:
"Brother Qiang, what happened?"
"The great virtue's orders have been sent flying!"
No wonder such a big piece of fat slipped out from under the lips, as if the grave of the ancestors had been dug up.
"Isn't Shi Xiaomeng guaranteed to be sure of everything?"
When Hu Rongqiang heard the three words Shi Xiaomeng, the anger that he had finally suppressed surged up again.
"He is just playing tricks on me. There is no list of great virtues at all."
"Are you kidding? If he wins this order, he can also get half a million. Brother Qiang, Shi Xiaomeng won't go to other companies, right?"
"Um?!"
Hu Rongqiang was so excited that he forgot about this. He quickly took his mobile phone and dialed the number of Dade's marketing manager:
"Hello, Manager Ren, I am Xiao Hu from Hu's Advertising."
"That's right, may I ask what your Hu's annual advertisement is for this year..."
"It's still Aoqian Company."
"Manager Ren, I would like to ask, what is the price quoted in Australia...?"
"6.8 million."
When he heard this number, Hu Rongqiang felt a pain in his heart!
If Shi Xiaomeng hadn't tricked him, Dade's net profit from this deal alone would have been at least four million, and then...
He glanced at his secretary who had been with him for more than two years... he could only make do with it for a while longer.
"Okay, thank you, Manager Ren. Do you have time to have a meal together this weekend?"
"Okay, I'll wait for your call."
"goodbye."
After hearing that it was Ao Qian who had taken the order from Dade, Nana was a little confused as to why Shi Xiaomeng wanted to play tricks on Hu Rongqiang.
"Brother Qiang, hasn't Shi Xiaomeng always regarded you as his brother?"
"He is just a white-eyed wolf. Fortunately, I always regarded him as my biological brother. I gave him bonuses and promised to promote him, but I still couldn't feed him enough. Before I left, he didn't forget to trick me."
"Brother Qiang, you mean 80,000 business expenses?"
"Um."
Nana felt that Hu Rongqiang was so angry that it could be solved with just one phone call.
"Brother Qiang, call 110 and call the police! He is committing fraud."
After hanging up the phone with Wang Lidong, he thought of this method.
"Forget it, I will never get the money back. In the past four years, I have deducted a total of more than 80,000 yuan from Shi Xiaomeng in commissions and bonuses."
"This...it's been so long, he probably doesn't have any evidence to prove it."
"This grandson mentioned this matter to me when we were discussing the remuneration of Dade's list, and even recorded it."
Nana glanced at Hu Rongqiang, but she didn't expect that this man would also stumble.
"Brother Qiang, is this the end of it?"
Hu Rongqiang glanced at his secretary. Of course he couldn't let it go, but he was a wealthy man now, so he shouldn't get involved in this kind of thing if he could.
"Huh, if it weren't for the sake of my fellow countrymen..."
"Brother Qiang, you have to deal with him, otherwise you will be laughed at by your peers."
"Oh, it's just a joke. Who asked me to treat Xiaomeng as my brother all the time? Eighty thousand yuan, let me see a person clearly..."
.............................
System: "Host, the music performance experience value is full. Do you want to upgrade?"
"upgrade!"
"Ding, the music performance skill has been upgraded to LV3 0/1000."
Wang Lidong added a generated point to his constitution.
On the panel, the constitution has changed from 13 points to 14 points.
After feeling the body, I really couldn’t feel much change, so I could only ask the girl to help test it after I went back at night.
Wang Lidong turned on the recording function on his phone and clicked record.
"....You cried and told me that fairy tales are all lies. I can't be your prince. Maybe you don't understand. From the time you said you loved me..."
After clicking the play button, a familiar voice came from the phone.
After moving up a level, the difference is indeed huge.
From amateur to professional level, his current strength...Wang Lidong thought about the familiar singers, namely Chunchun and Changchang's level.
I took out my cell phone, flipped through the phone book, and found Fei Si’s number:
"Fat four."
"What are you doing?"
"At home, I'll go find you."
"You didn't move, did you?"
"see you later."
After leaving the KTV, I took a taxi.
"Master, Baihua Community."
"Okay, sit tight."
The car drove for about ten minutes and then slowly pulled over and stopped.
"Little brother, we're here."
Wang Lidong paid the money, got out of the car, and walked more than a hundred meters to the gate of the community.
Spring and Autumn Garden.
After entering the community, I walked around and came to the downstairs of No. 18.
Go up to the 2nd floor and walk to 203.
Knocked on the door three times.
"coming."
The door opened, and Fat Si's fat face appeared at the door.
"Xiao Meng, it's quite quick. Come inside and sit down."
Wang Lidong entered the living room and found that it was no different from the last time he came there. It was a mess, but he could still move around.
Fat Si reached out and pushed the things piled on the sofa to the side, freeing up space for the two of them:
"Xiao Meng, sit down."
Then he took out a bottle of mineral water from a cardboard box under the coffee table and handed it to Wang Lidong.
"There's no hot water, let's make do."
"Thanks."
Wang Lidong took the mineral water, opened it and took a sip. He thought, in your environment, I wouldn’t even dare to drink a cup of tea.
"Xiao Meng, is it about singing in residence? I have already told the boss about this. If you have time today, at four o'clock, come with me to the bar to meet the boss."
"Fat man, we'll talk about the resident singing thing later. Please take a look at this first."
As he spoke, Wang Lidong took out several pieces of A4 paper from his briefcase and handed them to Fei Si.
Although Fei Si was a little confused about what Wang Lidong was doing, he still took a few pages and glanced at the music score.
He is now considered a semi-professional. Apart from compensating Lin Xia for going to the bar, the rest is devoted to writing songs and arranging music for a buddy.
'....Brothers for so many years, who knows you better than me? It's not easy because of the many years... We are different, although we will experience different things, we all hope,
We can meet again in the next life..."
Humming, Fat Si couldn't help but think of his college days, when everyone was so innocent and didn't have any scruples because the madman was a rich second generation.
But after graduating from college, he became Cheng Feng's assistant...
Alas... among several good friends, Wang Lidong is the only one who is kind to him.
Cheng Feng aside, Wu Di also regarded him as an errand boy.
After seeing the fat man humming, he just sat there silently. Wang Lidong didn't have the patience to wait for him to wake up naturally, so he shook Fat Si:
"Fat man, is this okay?"
Fei Si said excitedly:
"That's great. I haven't heard it before. It should be a new song. Xiaomeng. Who wrote it?"
"What does it mean to be old or not? I just wrote it casually."
If he really had written it himself, he would have shamelessly accepted the title of elder. He was too modest and would be pretentious.
"Xiao Meng, don't be ridiculous. Did the boss tell you not to talk to others casually?"
Fei Si took another look at the manuscript in his hand. Not only were the lyrics and music complete, but the arrangement was also included.
The two have known each other for so many years. Although their relationship is not a close one, they still know everything they need to know. If Wang Lidong really had talent in this field, he wouldn't be in such a miserable state.
Wang Lidong said seriously:
"I really wrote it, and the copyright has been applied for. It will be available in a while."
Although he still found it a bit unbelievable, according to Wang Lidong's usual style, Fei Si believed that he was not fooling him, and then excitedly patted his brother a few times:
"Xiaomeng, I didn't expect that you, like me, would not give up music after graduation.
In the past few years, have you learned to write songs when you have free time?
He didn’t even say a word to me.”
"Aren't you the same? Let's communicate more in the future."
"Okay, if Madman and Old Wu..."
After checking the time, it was almost two o'clock. Wang Lidong interrupted Fei Si's reverie:
"Fat man, is there a recording studio you're familiar with?"
"Yes, it's just a small recording studio. I often go there to record songs. It's good quality and cheap."
"How much does it cost to record a song?"
"It takes at least three or four hours to record a song. His fee is 100/hour, plus 500/song for post-production."
Fat Si flipped through the pages in his hand,
"You have three songs in total, so 2000 should be enough."
"What time do you go to the bar this afternoon?"
"Four o'clock, what's wrong?"
"Fat Si, how about you accompany me to the recording studio?"
After hearing this little thing, Fei Si agreed without hesitation:
"No problem, but Xiao Meng..."
Looking at Fei Si who was hesitant to speak, Wang Lidong said:
"Since when have you learned from Lao Wu? If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have something to say, let it go."
Fei Si raised the manuscript paper and thought about the words:
"Xiao Meng, I have watched these three songs. We are different. This song should be a hit, and it is a big hit. The other two songs are also excellent.
You sing it yourself, it's a bit...
Aren't you currently providing houses? I think they should be sold to those in need.
My buddy knows a lot of singers, why not ask him for help..."
Wang Lidong reached out and patted the fat man:
"Fei Si, thank you for helping me think about it. But I have my own plans. By the way, can you use the colorful bell?"
"use."
Wang Lidong took out his mobile phone, then clicked on the ringtone option and found the ringtone "Mouse Loves Rice".
"...I love you, I love you, just like a mouse loves rice, no matter how many winds and rains..."
"Xiao Meng, tell me why mice love rice?"
"Fei Si, do you know how much money Yang Chenggang made from this song's ringtone?"
Fei Si's eyes were hooded. How could he know this? He and Yang Chenggang didn't know each other.
Wang Lidong raised a finger.
"one million?"
Wang Lidong smiled and said:
"Guess upward."
"Ten million?"
Wang Lidong directly answered:
"At least 100 million."
Fat Si's eyes widened and he said in disbelief:
"Xiao Meng, is it true or not? Just this crappy ringtone, which costs 3 yuan a piece, can be sold for 100 million?"
Wang Lidong said with a smile:
"Fat man, there are 1.4 billion people in our Sihai country, and there are over one billion mobile phone users.
By the way, have you noticed that in recent years, those with professional backgrounds have been shouting and killing Internet singers? They even held collective symposiums to call on everyone to boycott Internet songs, saying that Internet songs represent vulgarity.
, to purify them on behalf of the organization. Do you know the reason?”
"Jealousy makes more money than they do?"
"This is the main reason.
The music market is so big. The ringtones of these songs such as Mouse Loves Rice, Pray for Buddha, Two Butterflies, etc. have sold hundreds of millions.
Taking someone's money away is like killing your parents.
Moreover, they are accused of being a person who does not understand music. Do you think they can tolerate it?"
"Xiaomeng, are you going to use these three songs as ringtones?"
Regarding this matter, Wang Lidong had no intention of hiding it. Even if he didn't tell it, the fat man would know about it in the future.
"I'm going to try both the ring tones and the music platform. Anyway, there is no conflict between the two."
"Xiaomeng, is it difficult to make this colorful bell? Can you tell me how to make it?"
Fei Si originally didn't think this thing could make much money, but after listening to Wang Lidong's words, he felt vaguely that this was a big opportunity for him.
"Fat man, this colorful ringtone is actually very simple..."
Wang Lidong dumped everything he knew and talked about to Fei Si. The market for ring tones was so big that even if there were multiple Fei Si, they would have no impact on him, so he took the opportunity to return the favor.
"Fat man, actually you can try it too.
Don't you know how to write songs yourself? If you get lucky, maybe a certain song will become as popular as a mouse loves rice, then your dream will definitely come true."
Fei Si was said to be a little ready to move, but he was a little confused about the second half of Wang Lidong's sentence:
"Xiaomeng, what dream comes true?"
Wang Lidong looked at Fei Si with a half-smile, then reached out and patted this guy gently:
"Okay, Fatty, we all know your little thoughts about Lin Xia."
