Zhao Huarong couldn't remember the last time he was played with like this.
There is a hierarchy in the entertainment industry.
As Chu Qingqiu's manager, in many cases, she can represent the top class in Chu Qingqiu's circle.
It is precisely because of her identity that basically everyone is polite to her when they see her. Even many of the first and second-tier celebrities in the industry have to call her Sister Zhao.
But today, she was treated as a fool.
What's even more annoying is that there's nothing she can do against this man.
In terms of work, Zhou Ziwu is not an artist of Qingmeng. In terms of private, he is closer to her as Chu Qingqiu's husband than to her as her manager.
But that's it.
I can't cure you, but there are many people who can.
The next day.
Qingmeng Media President’s Office.
"Mr. Du, this is the whole process."
Zhao Huarong told Du Qing the whole process of asking Zhou Ziwu for a song yesterday, including him saying he had no inspiration during the day and Fang Qin posting on Weibo at night saying he had arranged a song.
After Du Qing listened, he was silent for a moment and asked, "Did he really say that?"
Zhao Huarong nodded: "These are his exact words."
Du Qing lay back, closed his eyes and leaned on the chair.
Whether this matter is a big deal or not, after all, in business, one must be willing to buy and the other willing to sell.
If it weren't for Fang Qin's Weibo, even if he knew that he didn't want to write songs for his own singer, the matter would have just passed.
But this matter is not trivial at all. With this Weibo post, the nature of the whole matter will immediately change.
To put it harshly, this is a slap in Zhao Huarong's face, and Zhao Huarong asked him to sing for the benefit of the company, which also brought Qingmeng's face down.
"How long will Weibo Night be?" Du Qing opened his eyes, sat up straight and asked.
Zhao Huarong calculated and said: "There are still three weeks."
"What is his nomination?" Du Qing asked again.
Zhao Huarong said: "Original Musician of the Year."
Du Qing said: "Didn't I ask you to get a nomination for our singer last time? You are like this. Take advantage of these three weeks to work it out and get a foreign award for our own one."
"Contact Weibo again and tell me that Qingmeng wants this award. As for Zhou Ziwu, we can arrange another award for him."
Du Qing quickly thought of a solution.
Of course, the lost face must be regained. Doesn’t Zhou Ziwu want this award? Then let him not get it.
But he had written so many songs for Chu Qingqiu before, which helped her return to the peak of popularity. It would not be good to break up with him like this, so she thought of a compromise plan.
"Okay, Mr. Du." Zhao Huarong smiled and said, "I'll do it right away."
Music Director's Office.
Dai Yang opened Fetion, found [Zhou Dacaizi], and sent a message to him.
Dai Yang:【I heard you opened a studio?】
…
Xiang Shiyong has been thinking about how to put a "mango brand" on Zhou Ziwu for the past two days.
First of all, one show of "The Strongest Voice" and one New Year's Eve party are definitely not enough.
Although Zhou Ziwu became famous in "The Strongest Voice", he did not make his debut in "The Strongest Voice". If you want to leave a "brand" on him, you need to maintain a deeper and longer cooperation with him.
Where to start?
…
afternoon.
Zhou Ziwu ran to the studio excitedly and found Zhou Wenshan.
"Dad, have we found our music director?"
"How can it be so fast?" Zhou Wenshan said: "I sent out the recruitment notice, but I haven't received my resume yet."
Zhou Ziwu smiled slightly and said, "Let me recommend someone to you."
"Who?" Zhou Wenshan looked confused.
He just set a target yesterday, how could he have a target so quickly?
Zhou Ziwu said softly: "The current music director of Qingmeng Media is Dai Yang."
"Qing Meng?"
Zhou Wenshan was confused at first, and then burst into laughter. Before that, he had done a rough survey on some of the more powerful companies in the industry.
He knew more about Qingmeng, where his daughter-in-law worked, and knew that before his daughter-in-law participated in "The Strongest Voice", this company was called a music desert in the industry.
"You don't know about Qingmeng's previous reputation. Besides, he has reached the level of director in Qingmeng. What does he want to do when he joins us?"
Zhou Ziwu said: "Because he is the same as the employees you recruited before, he has dreams and ambitions."
With that said, he pulled out the chat history between himself and Dai Yang and showed it to his father.
"..."
Zhou Wenshan finished flipping through the chat history in silence and returned the phone to Zhou Ziwu.
Zhou Ziwu added: "Dad, don't look at Qing Meng's bad reputation before, but it has nothing to do with his music director as a whole. It's basically the reason of their boss."
"I have worked with him before. He is a very capable person with a wide range of interests. It was a good idea to have him join our studio."
Zhou Wenshan said: "You have said so, what else can I say? You are a professional in music. Please give me his contact information, and I will chat with him next."
Having solved a major issue, Zhou Wenshan felt very happy and said with a smile: "Now that the general has been found, the next step is your creation."
Zhou Ziwu said: "Okay, I will do it as soon as possible."
"Don't go too fast." Zhou Wenshan advised: "I would rather you write slower and ensure the quality of the songs. This is your first album after all, so you can't be careless."
Zhou Ziwu smiled and said: "Dad, just keep your heart in your stomach. This is my own album. I will definitely not make fun of myself."
After talking about the business, Zhou Ziwu picked up the phone again, and after some operations, he said: "Dad, I wrote a song for someone yesterday, and this is the copyright fee he sent. Keep it, my family still owes it to me."
It’s money, although it’s not much, but let’s pay back some of it first.”
To be honest, he didn't know the exact amount of his family's debt.
When his family went bankrupt, he was still in college. Zhou Wenshan didn't want him to be affected, so he kept it secret from him and only reduced some of his living expenses.
It wasn't until later when he was selling the house that he realized that it was his father who had been resisting.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Although Chu Dahu made a wave of investments in the studio some time ago, and the company has money in its account, it is the company's money. Dad can distinguish between public and private affairs.
It is impossible to use this money to pay off debts.
Now that he has the ability, of course he should take care of his family first.
Looking at the text message sent by the bank on his mobile phone, Zhou Wenshan felt mixed.
Unknowingly, the person protecting this family from wind and rain has been replaced by Zhou Ziwu.
In this regard, he was happy for his son's growth, but also felt that he was very useless. After living for decades, he still needed his son to help pay off his debts.
"well."
With a sigh, he transferred the money back and said, "Your status is different now. You should use this money to buy more clothes for yourself."
"Besides, there's no need to worry about the family's debts now. Those creditors don't even call for debt now. Just the day before yesterday, someone called me and said he wanted to exchange his money for shares in our company."
"Then do you agree?" Zhou Ziwu asked.
The people carrying the sedan chair were carrying people, and seeing that their family was developing again, the creditors were of course not in a hurry.
However, although he does not understand how to run a company, if the composition of the shares is complicated from the beginning, it may not be conducive to subsequent development.
Zhou Wenshan said: "Of course I didn't agree. There is no shortage of money in the company's accounts now."
Zhou Ziwu nodded, chatted with his father for a few more words, and then went home to continue "creating".
Although he can now write all the songs in the album on the spot, it is not necessary and the appearance still has to be done.
night.
Zhou Ziwu drove to pick up Chu Dahu from get off work as usual.
inside the car.
"Why didn't you see your beautiful assistant coming with you?" Chu Qingqiu asked casually.
Zhou Ziwu was driving, and he immediately became wary, but he didn't show it on his face. He simply replied, "When did I have a beautiful assistant?"
"Just Sister Yi." Chu Qingqiu said, "Have you forgotten about me now?"
Zhou Ziwu said: "Hey, so you're talking about her. I'm not at work right now, so why do I need her to follow me? Besides, I don't think she's pretty."
"Or, we have different perspectives as men and women. From your perspective, she is a beauty?"
Chu Qingqiu asked in confusion: "Do you really think she is not a beauty?"
"Why did I lie to you?" Zhou Ziwu said without changing his expression: "If dad hadn't hired an assistant for me, I would have dismissed her. There is someone behind you who will follow you at any time. It's uncomfortable no matter what, and even privacy
All gone."
"No." Chu Qingqiu said: "Don't say goodbye. Although I don't get along with her much, I can see that she cherishes this job, and when you go out, you will know the benefits of having an assistant by your side."
Zhou Ziwu said: "That's it, let's keep her first."
Seeing Chu Dahu's smiling face in the rearview mirror, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It was really thrilling just now. If I said something wrong, I might not be able to pass the test today.
However, women's friendship is really strange.
When we first met yesterday, we immediately started treating each other like sisters. It was so good that I wished I could marry Jin Lan on the spot. Who would have thought that only a day later, I started to guard against her again.
"By the way, I have good news." Chu Qingqiu thought of another thing.
Zhou Ziwu: "...Hmm."
He suddenly wanted to tease her.
For people who like to titillate with their talk, if you don't ask, it is the greatest torture to them.
Sure enough, Chu Qingqiu waited for a while and found that he had stopped talking. He pursed his lips and said, "Why don't you ask me what's the good thing?"
"I'm listening." Zhou Ziwu smiled.
His reaction made Chu Qingqiu feel very boring, and she suddenly didn't want to talk to him anymore, but she felt even worse if she kept it in her heart. Compared with the two, she still said: "There is at most one week left, and our drama will be finished.
!”
When she spoke, even the tips of her eyebrows were filled with joy.
"That's a good thing." Zhou Ziwu smiled and said, "What are you going to do after the filming is completed?"
His question made Chu Qingqiu start to think freely, "On the first day, I will do nothing and sleep well all day. On the second day, I will do nothing and sleep well all day. On the third day..."
Zhou Ziwu laughed and wanted to say, "You are the little pig," but he held back.
During this period of time, she was filming and recording "The Strongest Voice", and she rarely had enough sleep. She was indeed too tired.
"Let's go out and play together. You can't miss anything."
Zhou Ziwu smiled and said: "Okay, I will follow your arrangements that day."
…
Sunday.
Early in the morning, Zhou Ziwu came to the studio again.
Today, he is going to introduce Dai Yang to his father. If there is no problem, the studio will have a super player in music production from now on.
Because he was there as a middleman, and because both of them were determined to do something great, Zhou Wenshan and Dai Yang chatted quite happily.
Later, Zhou Ziwu saw that he was no longer needed, so he sneaked out of the office.
Then, he was surrounded by new employees.
"Master Ziwu, please sign your name for me."
They came here not only for their own future, but also for themselves. To put it simply, they were chasing stars with their salary.
Especially one or two young ladies, the love in their eyes almost appeared.
Everyone is young, and they don't have any jobs right now. Zhou Ziwu doesn't like to put on airs, so he quickly gets to know them.
After an unknown amount of time, the door of Zhou Wenshan's office opened, and he and Dai Yang walked out smiling together.
The scene suddenly became quiet, and Zhou Wenshan said with a smile: "Let me introduce to you, from today on, Dai Yang will serve as the music director of our studio."
"Bah bang bang!"
Warm applause broke out.
Everyone came here from job-hopping, and they had all heard about Qing Meng, a music director who had never been successful.
What they never expected was that a person of this level would jump to this small studio just like themselves.
If someone of his level is willing to come, it means the studio has great prospects.
Dai Yang's arrival gave the studio employees another shot in the arm.
After a simple welcome ceremony, Zhou Wenshan announced that after dinner, he called Zhou Ziwu into the office.
"This is the invitation letter just sent from Mango TV. Take a look." Zhou Wenshan pointed at the computer screen.
Zhou Ziwu asked in confusion: "Why is there another one?"
They just invited themselves to the New Year's Eve party a few days ago, and this time they received another invitation letter.
He walked over, looked at the computer screen, and read: ""The Great Life Season 5" recording invitation..."
Xiang Shiyong thought about it again and again and decided to show his utmost sincerity.
"The Great Life", like "The Strongest Voice", is also Mango TV's flagship variety show, except that "The Great Life" is broadcast on Friday, while "The Strongest Voice" is broadcast on Sunday.
Although its reputation has inevitably declined since its fifth season, "Life" is still one of the top variety shows in the entire Xia Kingdom, and its ratings for the same period have not even ranked among the top two.
The invitation letter sent by Mango TV this time was asking him to be a guest on two flights.
For Zhou Ziwu, this is a rare opportunity. After all, there are only a few top variety shows, and they are offered to you.
Moreover, he has just won the championship of "The Strongest Voice", so it would be a good idea to go to "The Great Life" to consolidate his popularity.
For the program team, the traffic from Zhou Ziwu is also what they need.
This cooperation can be said to be a win-win situation.
