It was still very early, so Lu Chen took out his mobile phone, opened his address book, and called Wang Jing at Nirvana Studio.
He was going to let the other party do the live accompaniment for the opening of Senqi’s flagship store in Beijing.
Originally, Lu Chen had contracted all these businesses to Feishi Records, but this time the business was not big. In addition, last time Wang Jing borrowed money from him, there must be something wrong with the management of Nirvana Studio, so I would like to help if you can.
.
After all, the two parties had cooperated happily in the past.
As a result, the phone rang more than a dozen times, but no one answered it, and then it went to voicemail.
Lu Chen didn't pay attention and called Wang Changsheng again.
The other party has turned off his phone.
Now Lu Chen was a little puzzled. Although it was still only the sixth day of the first lunar month, it was impossible for Nirvana Studio to open for business yet. You must know that the first month of the year is often the best time for music units.
He thought for a while and simply went directly to Nirvana Studio.
We are in the same park, and it only takes 10 minutes to walk from here to there.
When they arrived at Nirvana's floor, as soon as the elevator door opened, Lu Chen saw a scene of chaos and chaos!
The door to the studio was open, and various tables, chairs, benches, and cardboard boxes were piled messily at the door. People in blue work uniforms were busy inside, as if they were relocating.
Wang Jing, Wang Hui and three members of the Nirvana band were standing in the corner outside the door. They were holding musical instruments or big boxes in their hands, and they all looked lost.
Seeing such a scene, Lu Chen couldn't help but be shocked. He quickly walked over and asked, "Wang Jing, Wang Hui, what happened to your studio? Are you moving?"
"Brother Lu Chen"
Wang Hui forced out an ugly smile and said, "Our studio is over."
it's over?
Lu Chen was stunned. He knew that the operating conditions of Nirvana Studio had not been very good, but it could barely survive. Moreover, this studio had condensed the efforts of Wang Changsheng's family. How could it end just like that?
Wang Jing's face turned pale, she wrung her hands together and whispered, "Lu Chen, I owe you money."
"Don't talk about this!"
Lu Chen interrupted her: "Tell me what's going on!"
When the "My Deskmate" album was released, he spent a long time in Nirvana Studio and had a good relationship with Wang Jing and Wang Hui. Later, he ended the cooperation just because of the need to improve the quality of his works.
The equipment and background of Nirvana Studio are still far behind.
But during that cooperation, Lu Chen learned a lot from Wang Jing and got along well with this group of peers.
They are young, enthusiastic, driven and motivated, and full of expectations for the future.
So now that I heard that Nirvana Studio has ended, Lu Chen also felt uncomfortable and unhappy, and wanted to find out.
Wang Hui glanced at his sister timidly, and then explained the reason to Lu Chen.
It turns out that a month ago, Wang Changsheng received a big order, which was quite profitable. If done well, the studio could last for a year, but the initial investment was relatively large.
In order to win this order, he raised money and borrowed money everywhere without consulting Wang Hui and Wang Jing. He even mortgaged all the studio equipment and put together 700,000 yuan to invest.
As a result, I never expected that the other party was actually a gang of scammers, and they set up a trap for Wang Changsheng to get in. Naturally, all the investment was wasted, and the creditors came to the door again.
After suffering such a severe blow, Wang Changsheng fell ill immediately and is still living in the hospital.
Naturally, Nirvana Studio cannot be saved. It is not enough to compensate all its assets to others!
Such a thing actually happened
Lu Chen didn't know what to say. The shopping mall was like a battlefield. If you were not careful, your entire army might be wiped out.
After all, Wang Changsheng came to the sea halfway and was deceived because of his lack of experience. But these scammers are really hateful!
He asked: "Have you called the police?"
Wang Hui nodded and said: "I have reported it. Our studio is not the only one who has been defrauded. The police have opened a case, but the person has run away long ago and all the money in the bank account has been transferred. It is said that it is difficult to recover the losses."
He looked sad: "If the money is gone, you can transfer it again, it's my dad."
Lu Chen reached out and patted his shoulder to express comfort: "You are here, is there anyone taking care of Uncle Wang?"
Wang Hui said: "My mother is staying with him. He is fine. It's mainly due to a mental illness."
At this time Wang Jing interrupted and said: "Lu Chen, I will find a way to pay you back the money I owe you as soon as possible!"
Her expression was very determined, the kind that said she would not complain or be unhappy.
Wang Hui's face turned red: "Sister, let's pay it back together!"
Lu Chen thought for a while and said, "If you want to pay me back as soon as possible, I have a way."
Wang Jing opened her eyes wide: "What can I do?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Come to my studio. I will give you a basic salary of 10,000 plus performance bonuses, and you will be paid back soon."
Wang Jing graduated from the Composition Department of Beijing Music University and has some work experience. Basically all the arrangements for the album "My Deskmate" were written by her, and her talent and ability are quite outstanding.
Lu Chen always felt that she was buried in Nirvana Studio.
In the past, Lu Chen had no idea of poaching people, but now Nirvana Studio is a thing of the past.
"ah!"
Wang Jing exhaled softly. She didn't expect that Lu Chen would actually invite her to work in his studio.
Lu Chen turned to Wang Hui and said, "How about you and the Nirvana band come together to help me? The treatment will be favorable, and I can build you another recording studio, a truly professional recording studio!"
He has long had the idea of forming his own band and building a recording studio. Although outsourcing saves money and trouble, after all, he cannot complete his musical ideas as he wishes on someone else's territory.
In fact, it is a matter of money. Building a professional recording studio costs at least several million, and ordinary small companies cannot afford it.
But for Lu Chen now, it's really not a problem.
The suggestion he is making now is equivalent to annexing all the people from Nirvana Studio!
Wang Hui was immediately overjoyed: "Lu Chen, do you really want to invite us?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Of course it's true, and to build a recording studio, I'll give you an equipment budget of five million!"
Wang Hui's mouth watered: "Five million equipment budget"
He is a typical technical geek with an obsession with audio and electronic equipment that others cannot understand.
The equipment budget of 5 million is completely enough for him to build a studio of his dreams. You must know that the equipment budget does not include the decoration cost of the recording studio, which is also a staggering expenditure.
Lu Chen asked the other three members of the Nirvana band: "What are your opinions?"
The three of them looked at each other, and then all looked at Wang Jing.
Wang Jing bit her lip and said nothing.
She knows very well that for Nirvana Studio and Nirvana Band, joining Lu Chen Studio is the best result. They don't need to disband and find jobs again, and they don't need to worry about maintaining their lives.
If Lu Chen was just a small character in the entertainment industry half a year ago, he has now gradually grown into a towering tree and is someone who can truly be relied upon.
Lu Chen said that Wang Hui would be given an equipment budget of 5 million yuan, which would definitely not be discounted.
He has such strength.
The three members of the Nirvana band looked absolutely determined, and they just respected Wang Jing's wishes.
After a moment of silence, Wang Jing sighed secretly in her heart, smiled and nodded.
"Long live!"
Wang Hui was the first to shout, and the gloom on the faces of the Nirvana band members was wiped away, and they were all excited.
They don't want to separate if possible, and the way out now is really great!
Lu Chen said: "Originally, I should have gone to see Uncle Wang, but now I have a piece of work that needs to be arranged. It will be performed live tomorrow night with live band accompaniment. Can you help me?"
He stared at Wang Jing, who nodded again.
Wang Hui had an opinion: "Brother Lu Chen, most of our musical instruments have also been detained."
Several members of the Nirvana band smiled bitterly. All they could bring out were two guitars and a bass.
These are all my previous personal equipment.
The Nirvana band has a total of four members, namely vocalist/guitarist Wang Jing, bassist Ouyang He, keyboardist Wen Yuan and drummer Yang Xiaoyi. They are all around 23 or 24 years old, making it a very young team.
However, the professional standards of this band are very good, and they have done an excellent job of accompaniment for Lu Chen's works in the past.
Otherwise, Lu Chen would not sincerely invite them to join.
In fact, for a singer-songwriter like him, forming a band is a matter of course, but the live band and the accompaniment band are completely different things, and they give the audience a completely different feeling.
With Lu Chen's current status and reputation in the industry, it is not a problem to recruit a stronger lineup than Nirvana, but stronger does not necessarily mean better.
And the Nirvana band is young enough and has unlimited growth possibilities!
He smiled and said: "It's easy, let's go buy it now and buy whatever we need!"
Now no one had anything to say.
Time was limited, so Lu Chen acted resolutely. He asked Wang Hui to report to his studio first, and then drove the Nirvana band to buy musical instruments and equipment for his own use!
With Lu Chen as the "big money" in charge, the instruments didn't take much time. The members of the Nirvana band, including Wang Jing, all picked out their favorite equipment.
Lu Chen also asked his sister to rent a temporary commercial vehicle to facilitate the transportation of musical instruments and the movement of personnel.
That night he and Wang Jing completed the arrangement of the new work together.
The time is too tight, so I definitely won't be able to do it in detail, but there will be no problem in handling the endorsement event tomorrow.
On February 14th, **, the members of the re-formed and renamed New Nirvana band couldn't care less about going to this romantic holiday. They all started rehearsing Lu Chen's new song.
With a new team, new members, new works and new instruments, the first collaboration was surprisingly smooth.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the Nirvana band set off to the scene——
