Officer Wang smiled honestly: "I didn't know that young people nowadays like such cold singers."
When Chinese music was in full bloom, there were many singers who could stay in the music industry for many years with just one or two famous songs.
You can make a lot of money just by playing acupuncture...
Times are different now. With the rise of online music, many ordinary people with music dreams can also use their expertise and simple equipment to create their own online music.
Of course, Officer Wang is not sure what kind of music was popular during this period.
In his opinion, the current music list is actually not authoritative.
Among the recommended rankings, there are nine out of ten songs that Officer Wang cannot listen to.
"Yi Chen worked as a model before." Lao Han took a sip of wine and introduced: "Back then, before he graduated from high school, he was discovered by a modeling company in Jiangbei because of his outstanding figure and appearance, and invited him to shoot many print advertisements.
I even participated in the filming of a promotional video for a large Internet company and made a lot of money in the early years."
"So he was so good in high school?" Lu Weiwei also felt like she had discovered a new world, thinking that there were some gossips that she didn't know about.
Because of the internet celebrity singer Yi Chen, there is only his early music creation experience on the Internet.
As for other introductions, there are very few on the Internet.
But Lao Han is different. Lao Han is the boss who signed their contract, and he will definitely know more about their past than ordinary people.
For example, Yi Chen worked as a graphic model in his early years. You can only know about it in Lao Han's style music bar...
"No wonder he is handsome and well liked by female customers." Lu Weiwei quickly glanced at Gu Chen and said: "But compared with Junior Brother Gu, there may be three Laowangs missing in the middle."
This is also the first time Lu Weiwei sincerely praises someone other than Gu Chen for their good looks.
As far as Officer Wang knows, there may not be more than three people in the entire Furong Police Station and even the Jiangnan City Police Force who can be recognized by senior members of the Appearance Association like Lu Weiwei.
Although the singer Yi Chen's appearance and figure are comparable to Gu Chen's, Officer Wang is a little disdainful of his cold-natured eyes.
Gu Chen and he were both cold and handsome guys, but Gu Chen was not very active and talkative only on topics other than work.
But when it comes to serving the people, Gu Chen is always at the forefront with enthusiasm.
On the other hand, Yi Chen on the stage, from the moment he walked onto the stage, a female customer rushed to him and wanted to take a photo with him, but he pushed her away without even looking at her.
He is indifferent to people and things...
In fact, in the eyes of Officer Wang, there is no difference between good and bad in itself.
But such people are lonely and pitiful at heart.
Of course, they will not get involved in disputes, and the price is that they have fewer friends.
They are usually very elegant, calm, and knowledgeable. It would be a good thing to become friends.
But when you get along, you must be polite, give each other space, and get closer slowly.
In fact, everyone longs for warmth, and there is no such thing as a cold-natured person.
Often they may be injured, but after the wound heals, they will be perfect.
Officer Wang also made some analysis of Yi Chen who was praised by Lu Weiwei based on his many years of experience in observing people.
On the other hand, Junze, another internet celebrity singer, is the complete opposite.
Compared with Yi Chen, her figure and appearance seem to be far behind.
Yichen has long and elegant hair, while Junze has short and refreshing hair.
Yichen is 186, while Junze is 170.
Yichen has many female fans, while Junze’s fans are more male...
In the audience, all the customers who were familiar with the two men were shouting loudly, as if they had already prepared a unified slogan.
Everyone is a big fan of the two of them, or in other words, a fan club.
"It's also Chen, it's also Chen, it's enough to make it, west and south."
"Jun Ze Jun Ze, king over the world, legacy of legacy."
Listening to the spontaneous shouts of the customers, Officer Wang suddenly smiled...
It feels like this scene is a bit like a small concert scene.
Of course, this also depends on strength. Including Gu Chen, there are many fans at Furong Police Station.
This shows that appearance is one aspect, and ability is the basis for decision-making.
"Old Wang?" Seeing that Officer Wang was fascinated, Old Han reminded him: "Do you also like to listen to this kind of music?"
Officer Wang waved his hand and smiled slightly: "I prefer listening to old songs, but I can't say much about the current music. I feel that the tune and voice are good, and I can listen to it. It can be regarded as an understanding of music. Anyway,
I listen to music based on my feelings."
Old Han nodded "Yeah" and then looked towards the stage.
At this moment, a chorus song ended. Junze, who has a more active personality, took the microphone and began to talk to the audience about daily life, exchange creative ideas and share some trivial matters in life.
Yichen, on the other hand, bypassed the backstage and walked directly to the bar.
"He's here, Yi Chen is here." Seeing Yi Chen walking towards her, Lu Weiwei squeezed Officer Wang's arm in excitement.
"Lu Weiwei, can you let go of your hand?" Officer Wang pushed Lu Weiwei away and rubbed his red arm.
Yichen walked to the bar, ordered a glass of wine, then pulled up a soft chair and sat next to Old Han.
"Old Han, I'm planning to leave here in the next few days. There is a record company in Beijing that wants to sign me." Yi Chen drank wine and didn't seem to care about Gu Chen and others around him.
"Yes, of course." Old Han did not show excessive anger, but couldn't help but smile inwardly, and poured the essence of the bottom of the wheat beer he had collected into the wine glass.
"I'm just telling you that as our contract expires in half a year, I will try to extend the performance time this month, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation."
After taking a sip of wine, Yi Chen said again: "By the way, Lao Han, you might be able to find another singer, or you might be able to double Junze's salary. He might consider staying."
"Let me tell you this, Yi Chen, if you want to leave, it's your right. No matter where you live in the future, whether you live well or poorly, it doesn't matter. We are still friends." Old Han looked very serious,
He put a sip of wine into his mouth and said: "But there is one thing. You can no longer use these fire songs for business performances in other places. This is my attitude."
"Old Han, are you a little too harsh?" Yichen suddenly narrowed his eyes and squinted at Old Han.
The eyes hidden under the long hair seemed to contain a deep resentment: "I created the song, and I have the right to control it."
"But I spent money to create it for you. Without my support, your dreams on paper would never be realized."
Lao Han seemed to be very determined on this principle and continued: "You are talented and can find a new owner and have new development prospects. This is good. I congratulate you, but these songs must stay in style."
The new singer will continue singing in the bar. I don’t want our cooperation over the years to become unpleasant because of this.”
"Old Han, are you kidding me? Without these songs, my commercial value will be greatly reduced. You know this." Yi Chen also refused to give in.
Gu Chen, Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei were sitting aside eating melon.
But it's probably clear.
When Yichen and Junze were in decline, no one paid attention to their online works, but Han Hui had a keen eye and discovered their creative talents.
Therefore, let’s check out the stylish music that the two signed to Gangnam City.
As for the fire songs that Yichen mentioned, they are also the essence of Yichen's early creations, and are portraits of life created when he was most lonely.
Due to its strong sense of substitution, classic rhythm and lyrics, it quickly became popular after singing.
However, all this must be thanked to Lao Han.
Without his funding, renting a recording studio, using the best equipment for the two of them to produce, and spending money to promote them and buy charts, I am afraid that these songs would stay on paper forever and be sealed in wooden boxes.
in the corner.
However, since Yichen is leaving, the business of Gedou Music Bar will definitely be far less than before.
Therefore, Lao Han’s request is also very simple...
You Yichen can leave if you have the ability. He, Lao Han, will not hinder Yichen's development, but these songs that he helped compose at his own expense must stay in Gedong Qingba and be continued by the newcomers.
Yichen will no longer use these fire songs for commercial performances anywhere else.
But for the singer-songwriter, this can be said to be a fatal blow.
In fact, many singer-songwriters may have created hundreds or thousands of songs, but only one or two are popular across the country.
Giving up these popular songs now is equivalent to asking people to sign Yichen's creative talent, not the commercial value brought by those popular songs.
"Yi Chen, since this matter cannot be negotiated properly, I will not give in on the contract. Everything will remain as usual. I will leave voluntarily when your contract expires." Old Han seemed to be determined not to let go.
Yichen was angry at that time: "Old Han, you clearly know this record company's star-making plan, and the signing period for me is only two weeks. If I haven't chosen to sign the contract after two weeks, I will lose this rare opportunity."
Opportunity."
After taking a sip of wine, Yichen said again: "No matter what, I will get this opportunity. I don't want to break up with you, Old Han, we can still be friends in the future."
"Businessmen, you must first survive. If you are a friend like you, it will bring a devastating blow to my style. Do you think you are qualified to be friends with me? You are harming me."
Lao Han also insisted on not letting go and continued: "I can give in to anything, but these songs are exempt from discussion."
"Yi Chen, it's your turn."
While Yi Chen and Lao Han were still arguing, Junze on the stage called with a smile, and other audience members also looked behind them.
"Yi Chen! Yi Chen! Yi Chen..."
Everyone is chanting Yichen's name, but they don't know that Yichen is about to leave the Style Bar and join the music circle in Beijing.
"Let's start singing." Old Han calmed down and said to Yi Chen.
Yichen didn't hesitate any longer and walked directly onto the stage and began to take over Junze's singing.
"Isn't there any room for maneuver?" Lu Weiwei said with some regret: "It's a very good style music bar, a very good singer, a very good boss, can't there be a balance between these?"
"Do you think it's okay?" Officer Wang raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Gu Chen lowered his head and smiled slightly: "I think the matter can still be discussed. After all, Yichen's departure will definitely have a big impact on Style Qingba. I have seen many Internet celebrity shops and made them famous.
There are countless stories of artists losing their jobs in Internet celebrity stores, and then the artists starting their own independent businesses, and their business has been miserable, which is not good for both parties."
"Brother Gu Chen, you are right." After Lao Han put down the wine glass, he leaned on his seat and looked up at the ceiling: "If we work together, we will both benefit, if we divide, we will suffer two harms. Yi Chen's strength is not the same."
It’s not as powerful as you think.”
"Without my guidance and revision from behind, it would be difficult for him to achieve breakthrough development. Moreover, he is a cold-blooded person, and it would be difficult for him to get ahead in a music circle like Beijing's."
"But after all, there is a record company that wants to sign him." Gu Chen said.
Lao Han waved his hand and said with a smile: "Record companies like this actually make money. What they are interested in... is just the commercial value of Yi Chen's popular songs. They want to take advantage of Yi Chen and his songs.
To be honest, this kind of record companies don’t put their heart into investing in popularity and making money quickly. They just want to wait for other people’s wheat to be ripe and then directly harvest it.”
"In addition, Internet music has mushroomed in recent years, and the lifespan of a song's popularity is only half a year to a year. If Yichen only wants to support his old age with these popular songs, he must not do it."
Gu Chen laughed and said: "I don't know much about the music industry, but what you said, Old Han, makes sense. As far as singers are concerned, creative ideas will dry up. Maybe one or two songs will become popular in this life. That's luck. Songs
If you can make one hit after another, that’s your strength.”
"That's good." Lao Han chuckled and raised his glass: "It's rare to meet you friends tonight, so tonight's consumption is mine."
"How embarrassing." Lu Weiwei originally wanted to use He Junchao's 1,000 yuan cash coupon, but now it seems that it is not necessary, so she can just return it to him.
Several people chatted for more than two hours.
Yichen and Junze also sang on stage for more than two hours.
Nine p.m.
Yichen coughed twice on the stage and said into the microphone: "That's it for tonight's concert. Thank you everyone for supporting me. Please continue to eat and drink well at Gedou Music Qing Bar."
Then, amid a burst of screams and whistles from the crowd, Yichen and Junze put their guitars on their backs, walked around the backstage, and walked to Lao Han from the other exit.
"Old Han, your performance tonight is not bad, right?" Junze, who has a cheerful personality, is obviously very satisfied with his performance tonight.
"Some of the high notes seem to be out of tune." Lao Han, who knows music very well, put it bluntly.
"Hey, you discovered me again." Junze scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Isn't this because of the recent troubles?"
When he said this, Yi Chen, who was standing beside him, had already asked for two beer glasses from the bar, and was about to ask the bartender to make two bottles of wheat beer with excellent taste.
Junze pulled Yichen over and said, "Yichen, sit here first and have a good talk with Lao Han. Leave these to me."
He knew that Yichen and Lao Han had just had a conflict, and wanted to bring the two of them together to have a good talk without making the problem irreversible.
Junze then used tweezers to get some ice from the bar refrigerator, threw it into the beer bottle, then took the wheat beer from the bartender and prepared to open it.
At this time, he was directly interrupted by Old Han: "Let me do it. I still have a few bottles of good wine hidden at the bar. I happened to meet a few new friends today, so why not drink together."
"You, Old Han, are hiding good wine at the bar again? That's fine, I'm hoping for it." Junze found an empty stool with a happy face, sat next to Gu Chen, stretched out his hand and said, "My name is Junze."
"Gu Chen." Gu Chen said.
"Then who is this?"
"My name is Lu Weiwei."
"You call me Lao Wang."
Several people said hello one after another.
Lao Han used the key to open a locker at the bar, then held an exquisite portable small refrigerator in his hand and placed it in front of everyone. After opening it, there were six bottles of cold beer.
"There are six of us, so each of us has just one bottle." Old Han said.
Junze couldn't wait to pry open a bottle and quickly poured it into his beer glass.
This kind of beer bottle is very small, one bottle does not fill a large beer glass.
"Let me try it first." Junze took the first sip and said, "Well, it tastes pretty good. It is indeed Lao Han's private collection."
Then, Junze took another big sip and drank the beer in one gulp.
"Junze, we haven't even filled the clinking glasses yet, and you've already finished it? You don't want me to share half of it with you, right? That's no way." Old Han also warned in advance.
Junze waved his hand and said: "I just wanted to go to the toilet. You guys can chat slowly here. I'll excuse you."
Then he threw the cup into the bucket at the bar, asked the bartender for some toilet paper, and ran directly to the toilet.
"Young man, before you go to the toilet, you didn't forget to give Old Han a nice drink." Yichen couldn't help but shook his head, raised his glass and suggested, "Let's cheer."
"cheers."
The five wine glasses clinked with a "bang bang" sound, and everyone savored Old Han's private collection.
With the persuasion of Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, Yi Chen also began to resolve the conflict with Lao Han.
"Old Han, it was my fault just now, but you have to consider my request. Since we have friends here today, let's not talk about these things and just drink."
"Okay, as long as you are reasonable, I, Old Han, will not treat you badly." After saying that, Old Han raised his glass again and drank with a few people.
The time soon arrived at nine thirty.
Junze asked the bartender for a cigarette behind his back, put his guitar on the bar on his back, and said, "Then you just drink first, I have to go home and take a hot shower."
"Wait for me, I'll leave too." Yi Chen also said.
It was indeed quite embarrassing to sit here just now.
Gu Chen looked down at the time and asked Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei beside him: "It's getting late, how about we go too?"
"Okay." Lu Weiwei nodded cheerfully and bumped Officer Wang with her arm.
Lao Han stood up and shook hands with everyone one by one: "Next time, come to Style Qing. Tell me your name and I will have someone give you a discount."
"Thank you, Old Han." Lu Weiwei said with a smile: "Next time I have a chance, I will introduce you to more friends."
"That's best." Old Han also said sweetly, "It's best if they are all pretty girls like you."
"Ha ha."
The few of them chatted happily and came to the entrance of Qingba together, preparing to take a taxi home.
