Lu Chen called the store manager yesterday to inform the store manager of his decision. Since he is a temporary worker who is paid by the hour and has not signed a formal contract, there are not many guarantees and there are not many restrictions. He can leave at any time if he wants.
The store manager felt a bit regretful, because Lu Chen had been working at the KFC store on Xingfu Road for more than half a year. He had always worked diligently and conscientiously, never being late or leaving early. This was completely the performance of an excellent employee.
It's a pity that not many of today's young people are willing to submit to serving food and sweeping floors in fast food restaurants for a long time.
Therefore, the store manager did not make things difficult for me, and after a few words of persuasion to no avail, he happily settled his salary for the month.
With a thin stack of banknotes in his arms, Lu Chen left without any nostalgia.
"Lu Chen, Brother Lu!"
As soon as he reached the sidewalk, an anxious call suddenly came from behind him.
Lu Chen couldn't help but turn around and saw a woman wearing a KFC employee uniform running towards him, shouting: "Wait!"
Lu Chen was surprised: "Chen Xin, are you looking for me?"
This woman named Chen Xin is Lu Chen’s colleague. Although she is younger than him, she is already an old employee.
Lu Chen didn't know her very well. He only knew that the other party was from Sichuan and had been in the capital for two or three years. The two of them usually didn't talk much, and at most they only said hello when they met.
Chen Xin ran a little hastily, with a healthy blush on her fair and round face, revealing a bit of beauty.
She stopped in front of Lu Chen, but did not dare to look into Lu Chen's eyes and asked: "You, you resigned?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Yes, I found another job, so I won't do it here."
Chen Xin finally raised her head, with a hint of disappointment evident in her eyes. She bit her lips and asked in a low voice: "Then are you still staying in the capital?"
Lu Chen was stunned.
He is not a dull fool, and Chen Xin's performance is so obvious, how can he not understand?
But Lu Chen never thought that Chen Xin would like him!
In his memory, there was very little content about this girl, just conversations and exchanges at work.
After hesitating for a moment, Lu Chen nodded and said, "Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, I will stay in the capital forever, and my current new job cannot be separated from here!"
A touch of joy appeared on Chen Xin's face and she said, "Then can you leave me your contact information?"
Although Lu Chen didn't have any feelings for her and just regarded her as an ordinary work colleague, at this time he didn't want to let her down, so he agreed: "Okay, you can add me on Feixun, and we can contact her in the future.
"
Lu Chen told Chen Xin his flight signal.
After Chen Xin wrote it down on her mobile phone, Lu Chen waved goodbye to her.
However, when Lu Chen walked far away, he inadvertently looked back and saw that the figure was still standing in the same place.
In this metropolis with a population of 30 million, people are always reunited and separated in such a hurry!
………
After returning to his small home, Lu Chen washed his face first.
The water he used to wash his face was cold to the bone. He needed to calm down and think about the future.
Of course, quitting my job at KFC was not impulsive. This part-time job did not pay very well, and it took up a whole day. There was no need to continue doing it.
In Lu Chen's opinion, his most important task at the moment should be to sort out the treasures in his memory, the thousands of classic songs, and the countless wonderful and touching stories.
These memories came too suddenly. Although they were engraved in his mind, Lu Chen was not sure at all. Will they suddenly disappear one day, leaving him with a sweet dream?
Therefore, it is undoubtedly extremely important to organize and record the things in your memory!
After washing his face, Lu Chen's mind became very clear. He sat in front of the desk, opened the computer and took out pen and paper.
He first sketched on white paper and listed a simple chart.
Lu Chen made a simple classification of the songs in his memory. First, there were big love songs, rock and roll, folk songs, film and television theme songs, Chinese style, fast songs...
Below the major items are subdivided minor items. For example, love songs can be classified according to emotions, such as tenderness, nostalgia, melancholy, sadness, happiness, and duets between men and women.
Another example is folk songs, which are divided into campus folk songs, urban folk songs, country folk songs, independent folk songs, etc.
As for rock and roll, fast songs also have a variety of styles.
The more he wrote on paper, the more his ideas became clearer.
What Lu Chen is doing now is to draw a big frame for his memory, with countless spaces with prompts divided into the frame, and then he can slowly fill in the spaces, instead of just writing whatever comes to mind, completely as he pleases.
This can avoid memory errors and omissions to the greatest extent.
Formulating the framework is only the first step, and the subsequent work is really difficult.
A song requires composition and lyrics. If you are familiar with it and can play and sing it by yourself, it is easy to rewrite it. However, many songs that have only been heard once or twice will require a lot of effort to restore.
There is also an arrangement.
Someone once said that if you can only write melodies but don't know how to arrange music, that's not true composition.
This sentence may be too extreme, but it is not unreasonable. Arranging is precisely Lu Chen's biggest weakness in music - his understanding of arrangement is very limited.
The limited experience comes from the memory of the singer Xu Bo in the dream. Xu Bo has musical talent, but his talent is mainly reflected in singing and playing. He can write some songs but not arrange music.
The classic works in Lu Chen's memory often have exquisite arrangements, some even reaching perfection. The skillful arrangement makes the melody more moving, which is an important factor in making the classics impossible.
The rich-sounding accompaniment requires the cooperation of a large number of instruments. If Lu Chen were to rewrite them, it would be an impossible task.
Of course, Lu Chen could leave the arrangement task to others. Domestic pop music is very prosperous and there are many musicians who are good at arrangement, including some big names.
However, those musicians may not be able to perfectly meet Lu Chen's requirements, so he would like to try to learn and master the arrangement skills and abilities himself, and finally complete these classic works by himself.
Lu Chen had never considered that he would spend his whole life comfortably by selling the things in his dreams and memories effortlessly.
He is still very young, has lofty ideals and pursuits, and hopes to achieve his goals through hard work!
Of course, for now, the arrangement thing has to be put aside first, and even if you want to learn it, you won't be able to learn it right away.
Controlling the mouse to open "Singing Master", Lu Chen started today's work.
Time passed by silently, and it was quiet inside the small dwelling. Only the typing sounds of the keyboard and the clicks of the mouse could be heard from time to time. Occasionally, the cooling fan in the old computer could be heard whirring.
One song after another, they were remade in Lu Chen's hands and then saved one by one according to categories.
Among them, he sent several important songs directly to the "Greater China Music Library" for copyright inquiry and registration to ensure that there were no legal issues regarding copyright.
This is very important. In the pop music world, disputes over song copyright are very common and must be guarded against.
The inquiry and registration fees for the "Greater China Music Library" are very high, so high that many people in the music industry have expressed strong dissatisfaction, but no one has questioned its authority and credibility.
In fact, it is very simple for Lu Chen to save money. He only needs to publish the songs he writes on large music forums or music websites, and pay dozens of dollars to register and prove the copyright, which can basically guarantee his rights as a creator.
But the value of these songs is too high!
Lu Chen is not short-sighted. Just as he has not signed a contract that is not conducive to his original copyright, he pays more attention to long-term development needs, and now he also has money to register copyright.
The share of money earned from the Forgettable Grass Bar and the rewards from the online live broadcast are all his confidence!
He was concentrating on working in front of the computer until his stomach made a "gurgling" sound of protest.
At this time, Lu Chen woke up from his selfless state and couldn't help but touch his dry belly.
When he looked at the time displayed on the computer, it was already past 12 noon!
Lu Chen was a little speechless. First of all, he didn't expect that he had sat for such a long time. Secondly, he felt hungry too quickly, which was completely beyond the normal state.
You must know that he had breakfast at around 8 o'clock in the morning, and it was twice the usual size!
It also consumes a lot of mental work!
Lu Chen shook his head and stood up, stretching his body that was stiff from sitting for a long time, and prepared to go out for lunch.
At this moment, the mobile phone on the table suddenly rang.
