Sister Mei stretched out her hand, but Lin Dong reminded her with a smile.
"Sister Mei, my hands are very rough."
After saying that, the two people's hands were already holding each other's hands, and Sister Mei was not as calm as Chen Lan had been.
"I know. I heard Xiaomi say that you work on a construction site. Sit down!"
Invisibly, he has extraordinary bearing and powerful aura.
Before Lin Dong sat down, he fused the memory of the original owner and recognized who this Sister Mei was.
Su Mei was a smash hit A-list star five years ago, with a career in film, television and singing. However, five years ago she suddenly announced her retirement from the industry and disappeared.
Unexpectedly, he opened a musical note bar and lived an ordinary life.
Of course, Lin Dong understands that it may not be that simple for him to withdraw from the industry.
As her career is on the rise, it is not impossible for her to be crowned queen, but her sudden retirement has aroused the confusion of countless fans.
But it was very unusual in the media, and there were not many reports.
The information in his memory made Lin Dong very curious, but he definitely couldn't ask.
Feeling Lin Dong's eyes, Su Mei smiled faintly, "It seems that A Dong recognized me."
Lin Dong smiled, but Qin Xiaomi told Lin Dong: "Don't spread the word, Sister Mei doesn't want to be disturbed."
Nodding, Lin Dong gave Qin Xiaomi a look of understanding.
However, Su Mei smiled nonchalantly and said: "It's okay. After so many years, my reputation has faded. By the way, A Dong, did you write the lyrics and compose the music for your two songs?"
Su Mei still didn't seem to believe it, so she asked.
The level of Lin Dong's two songs is really too high.
Although it was a question, Lin Dong was not angry. After all, he came from the construction site, which was surprising in itself, so he responded: "Yes, I created it myself."
At this time, Qin Xiaomi said: "Sister Mei, you don't know, this guy also composed an erhu song, which shocked the old man."
"Oh?" Su Mei didn't know about this and was a little surprised.
Being able to surprise even Qin Dacheng, an Erhu master, it is easy to imagine that this Erhu piece must be extraordinary.
Qin Xiaomi also immediately turned on her mobile phone and played a video of Lin Dong playing the erhu for Sister Mei to watch. It was not until she finished watching that Su Mei raised her head and looked at Lin Dong that she was still not satisfied.
At this moment, she no longer doubted Lin Dong's musical talent, and her eyes showed real appreciation.
"A Dong, I heard from Xiaomi that you don't plan to sign a company and want to set up your own studio?"
Lin Dong glanced at Qin Xiaomi and then said, "Yes, I don't like to be restricted."
However, Su Mei reminded: "Then you have to think clearly, this circle is not as glamorous as it seems on the surface.
There are many talented people in the world, but few can succeed alone without relying on capital.
Especially now, idol stars and young talents are just like assembly line production. Without you, capital will still make a lot of money.
In this circle, there are no channels or resources, so how many people can know who you are?
So what if fans like your songs?
Who cares who you are?
Traffic stars sing poorly, but people still pay for it, and they are also defended by their fans.
Of course, I am just reminding you that you have said too much..."
Su Mei admired Lin Dong very much and spoke too much without realizing it, because she knew this dirty circle very well and had seen many talented and conceited people.
In the end, it ended dismally, and even ended in ruin.
Just like herself, if she doesn't want to follow the crowd, she can only retreat sadly.
This circle would be just as bright without everyone, because there are too many people crowding into it.
"Thank you, Sister Mei. I know all this, but I still don't want to rely on capital. It's not that I'm reluctant to share, but I don't like to be controlled by others."
Lin Dong was sincerely grateful. He understood that Sister Mei was able to say this to him for the first time because she was sincerely doing it for his own good.
At this time, Qin Xiaomi answered: "Sister Mei, there is no need to worry, the old man has already hired him as a teaching assistant at Folk Music. With Folk Music to rely on, I believe there will be nothing wrong with him.
Besides, it's too early to say this now. Even if Brother Dong opens a studio, he won't be able to affect others for a while."
Su Mei was relieved to learn that Lin Dong was working as a teaching assistant in Minle. However, she disagreed with Qin Xiaomi's statement that it would not affect others.
If Lin Dong continues to sing a few songs of the same quality as the first two, he will definitely become a popular singer, and even become famous.
What follows is the pursuit of interests and the competition for channels.
Anyone who refuses will offend others. The music network is not the same, and the self-media platform is not the same. It is too difficult to be alone in this circle.
What's more, if Lin Dong is good at writing songs, he will also attract countless invitations from singers and managers.
Can you refuse them all?
Don't think of people in the circle as being generous and calm. Those glamorous ones are just for the fans to see.
Can a small studio withstand pressure?
Of course, she had already talked about it in depth at the beginning, and she would not say it again. After all, she had only admired Lin Dong before, and Qin Xiaomi was also involved.
Afterwards, they just chatted. Not long after, Qin Xiaomi’s classmate Xu Kun and his girlfriend Wang Qian also arrived. They introduced and exchanged greetings, and then started ordering food.
Xu Kun was very interested in Lin Dong and kept chatting with Lin Dong. Qin Xiaomi, Wang Qian and Sister Mei were muttering something in a low voice and laughing from time to time.
"Brother Dong, my eldest brother's latest movie has started shooting, and the soundtrack of the film has not yet been decided. If you are interested, I will tell my eldest brother and let you try it out?"
Lin Dong was slightly startled by Xu Kun's words, and then glanced at Qin Xiaomi opposite him, and then asked Xu Kun, "Did Qin Xiaomi tell you that?"
Xu Kun's face turned slightly red. Indeed, this was a task given to him by Qin Xiaomi. It was to help Lin Dong make some money. If the soundtrack songs were good, he could also get into the circle of film and television soundtracks.
It specializes in helping people write lyrics, music and soundtrack, so it is also suitable for studios.
When Lin Dong sang "River Water", old men praised his amazing musical talent. It should not be difficult for Lin Dong to write songs for film and television drama soundtracks.
Xu Kun didn't expect to be seen through by Lin Dong so quickly. After feeling a little embarrassed, he smiled and said: "Although Xiaomi asked me to help, I have also listened to two of your songs, the erhu song, and watched the video.
Brother Dong, you have such talent, what’s more, the final decision still needs soundtrack and songs to be recognized by investors."
"Well, thank you. Brother Kun, please help me pull some strings. I'll try to see if I can win this project."
Lin Dong had no reason to refuse the project that was delivered to his door.
Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, you can still try.
What's more, isn't it normal to rely on interpersonal relationships?
Moreover, in the end, it also depends on the quality of the work, and interpersonal relationships are just a link. If the quality is not good, people will not want it.
The food and wine started to be served, and the five people started chatting while eating. Lin Dong quickly got acquainted with them. Of course, adding contact information is essential.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the five of them were slightly tipsy and their faces turned red, especially the three girls, whose faces were like peach blossoms and became more and more delicate.
At the end of the checkout, Lin Dong spent more than 8,000. This private kitchen is so damn expensive.
But he didn't mention Sister Mei or ask for a discount or anything.
It's not necessary, it's just plain and easy to look down upon!
Qin Xiaomi was about to come over, but was pushed away by Lin Dong.
When they separated, Sister Mei took Lin Dong's arm and gave him a business card.
"When you have time, ask him out for tea, and just say that Sister Mei introduced him, do you understand?"
"I understand, thank you Sister Mei for your support."
