Zhou Huajian, who only became famous at the age of forty, was trembling when he saw Xiao Qian.
It's like having Parkinson's disease.
Not scared, but excited.
There was nothing I could do. After so many years of hardship, I finally got through it. Zhou Huajian was indescribably grateful to Xiao Qian for giving him all this.
He has already decided to go back to his hometown in Hong Kong to sell ice cream.
"Hello, Mr. Xiao."
When people reach middle age and things change, they will always be extra humble.
Zhou Huajian bowed deeply in front of Xiao Qian without any embarrassment.
Xiao Qian quickly pulled him to sit down.
For this person, he was his favorite idol in his previous life.
"Brother Jian, there's no need to be polite. Just like everyone else, just call me Xiao Qian."
Just kidding, how dare Zhou Huajian?
The number of people in the entire Starlight who dared to call him Xiao Qian can be counted on one hand.
"Hua Jian has been nagging him, saying that he is very grateful to Mr. Xiao for giving him the opportunity to rise. He said that he will work hard to repay the company's respect."
Next to Zhou Huajian, his agent Yu Shangjun acted like he was free of money for his kind words.
Before being transferred to be Zhou Huajian's manager, Yu Shangjun was desperate.
He felt that he was assigned by the company.
Otherwise, why would you let yourself be the manager of someone who only debuted at the age of 40?
When he saw Zhou Huajian, he became even more desperate.
No matter how old he is, he is still so ugly.
In the entertainment industry where handsome men and beautiful women dominate, this is an existence that is simply being crushed.
However, after Zhou Huajian sang a song to him, Yu Shangjun quickly changed his attitude and said a wise saying to him.
"Thank God for giving you a good voice, otherwise, what would you do with your life?"
Yu Shangjun was sent to be Zhou Huajian's manager, of course not because he was assigned, but because he was very capable.
The company also knows how difficult it is for an older and less handsome singer to get ahead.
Under such circumstances, without the support of a strong agent, Zhou Huajian would never be able to get ahead.
When the company arranged for Zhou Huajian to sing "Swords Like Dreams", Yu Shangjun knew that Zhou Huajian's opportunity had come.
There is an unspoken rule in popular music within Starlight that everyone knows.
Any singer who can sing lyrics and music composed by Xiao Qian himself must be the target of special attention.
The singer of Starlight started to become famous by singing Xiao Qian's works.
For this reason, Yu Shangjun broke out 300% of his combat effectiveness and began to work hard for Zhou Huajian's popularity.
He is a powerful agent and a person who is willing to bend and stretch in order to make the artists he is responsible for popular.
When "Sword Laughter" was a guest on "A Date with Jing Qi", in order to give Zhou Huajian a chance to show his face, he contracted all the lunch boxes for the entire crew.
During "Happy Camp", in order for He Min to even mention Zhou Huajian and "Sword Like a Dream", he prepared exquisite gifts for each host.
I just don’t know why, but He Min, Xie Zhi and others didn’t dare to accept it.
But during the recording of the program, He Min and Xie Zhi mentioned Zhou Huajian and "Sword Like a Dream" many times.
After "Sword Laughter" was released, the previous accumulation became the biggest catalyst.
"Sword Like a Dream" and Zhou Huajian soared to the sky, dominating the music charts in a short period of time, even pushing Xi Mengjuan down.
After Tu Xiaogang, the world heard songs with a chivalrous flavor, and also got to know a new singer with excellent singing skills.
Now, in front of Xiao Qian, Yu Shangjun still wants to fight for more for Zhou Huajian.
In an entertainment company, if there are artists who are not cared for by their bosses, their situation will be in heaven or on earth.
It's a pity that how could his little thoughts be hidden from Xiao Qian's eyes?
However, Xiao Qian didn't care very much. Instead, he admired the enterprising spirit of his staff.
"Brother Jian, you have become famous now. The company's opinion is to strike while the iron is hot and produce your first album now. We, Haofeng, will rely on our strength to strive to achieve success in one step and rush to the ranks of top singers. How?
Sample?"
Hearing that the company was going to produce an album for him, Zhou Huajian felt warm and bright all over his body.
"I...I listen to the company."
He has a clear understanding of himself and how the current situation came about.
Before joining Starlight, he thought that being an artist or singer was not difficult. As long as he sang well, there would be no problem.
However, after receiving training from Xingguang, he suddenly discovered that he had not even touched the edge of the entertainment industry.
Not to mention anything else, the image creation alone caused him to undergo earth-shaking changes.
When he was an amateur, he was slovenly. Even though he loved to be clean, due to lack of money, lack of environment, and poor appearance, at first glance, he looked like a mutton skewer seller.
However, after being transformed by Starlight, his face has not been adjusted in any way, but his whole body exudes a strong bookish aura, which makes people feel more close to him.
Precisely because he felt the gap on the ground, Zhou Huajian chose to believe in the company.
Not to mention, becoming a singer and releasing an album was his biggest dream in life.
only……
A look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on his face, but he quickly became firm again.
"Mr. Xiao, there is something...I..."
Yu Shangjun next to him was startled. While coughing, he also poked him with his elbow to signal him not to mess around.
Xiao Qian was baffled when he saw the two of them playing a riddle.
"Brother Jian, if you have any ideas, just say so. Our company's style is that everything is transparent, and everyone has the right to express their ideas."
After all, Zhou Huajian is still simple and does not have so many tricks. In addition, he admires Xiao Qian very much, which makes him open his heart easily.
"Mr. Xiao, you should know. Before joining the company, I formed a band with a few friends. At that time, we were all very difficult. We could only sing in bars and other places to earn some living expenses."
Zhou Huajian's face showed a look of nostalgia.
"At that time, although we didn't have much money, we supported each other, ate together, and took care of things together. We also had a lot of discussions about the future. They were all very talented friends, but they lacked a stage to show off. Now.
I broke out alone, but they are still wasting their time. I think..."
Xiao Qian understood.
"How many of them do you want to take with you?"
Yu Shangjun rushed to the front and worked hard to save his artist.
"Mr. Xiao, this is just an immature idea of Brother Jian. If conditions don't allow it, we can understand the company's difficulties."
In his opinion, Zhou Huajian's request was too much.
Entertainment companies are not charity organizations. The purpose of cultivating artists is to make money.
The company wants to train you because you are good at singing. As for your friends, what is there worth planning?
Xiao Qian waved her hand to prevent Yu Shangjun from interrupting.
He looked at the embarrassed Zhou Huajian seriously, not expecting that this man was such a loyal person.
Another thing, in his impression, Zhou Huajian has never been a band singer?
In his previous life, Zhou Huajian was a solo singer, and the type of his works was not rock.
Why do you want to bring your band friends with you in this life?
However, Xiao Qian is still very clear about one thing.
That is Zhou Huajian's friends, their strength is definitely not too bad.
Musical powers like this basically have a common trait.
It is simply impossible to get around them if you don't have a good level of musicians.
It's like asking people at the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, "Will you discriminate against people who score 28 points on the math test?"
People from the Chinese Academy of Sciences will definitely tell you: No.
Why?
"Because you can't touch it usually."
Since he is a powerful person, Xiao Qian doesn't have much resistance.
But there was one question for which he still needed a clear answer from Zhou Huajian.
"Brother Jian, you have to understand that if you bring your friends with you, your name will no longer be singer Zhou Huajian, but will be hidden in a band. Can you...can you accept this?"
Hearing that Xiao Qian was loose, Zhou Huajian was very excited.
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I have been delayed for so many years, and now I am extremely lucky. If I can have friends on the road to success, then I... I will have no regrets in my life."
If you want wealth and honor, don't forget each other.
A saying that has been passed down from ancient times, but there are very few things that can be done through the ages.
Xiao Qian had a new understanding of Zhou Huajian's character.
"Okay, from now on you and your friends will work as a band. In addition, I will give you another song."
Xiao Qian took the paper and pen, and started to draw the staff in front of Zhou Huajian and Yu Shangjun, and then wrote the score and lyrics. Everything, Zhou Huajian and Yu Shangjun were shocked, and I am afraid they will never forget it.
