Today is New Year's Eve, and there are big red festive lanterns hanging on the street lamps and branches outside.
In the morning, there were still some people doing business outside, but by noon the shop was closed.
The busy city of Magic City also rarely became quiet. In the past, it was bustling with people and busy with traffic.
During this festival, everyone returns to their hometown to celebrate the New Year. It is the most important festival of the year and also a traditional festival.
Mubai Entertainment took a vacation a few days ago. After working hard outside for a year, it was time to return to my hometown to see my parents.
Mubai Entertainment has unknowingly celebrated its second birthday. The company has grown a lot, and not many employees have left. Basically, Starway Entertainment poached some people in order to deal with Mubai Entertainment.
There was also a group of people who ran away after hearing the news, but this was a small group of people. The vast majority of people did not leave the company, and everyone got through the difficulties together.
The company's original address was in Tianfu Square, close to Li Feng's recording studio, making it convenient for the company's trainees to practice singing.
After two years of development, the company's staff has grown a lot, its scale has become much larger than at the beginning, and the company has become more formalized.
Years ago, I moved into a new office area, which is a relatively large building. I rented three floors of space. The space is close to 1,000 square meters, which is much larger than before.
The rent is a lot more expensive, but within the acceptable range.
I did not go to the most prosperous place, but found a more suitable place. I also searched for this new office address for a long time.
In a year's time, the company will officially move into a new office building. The employees were very happy after knowing this news.
Because this means that the company is growing and developing well, and everyone can continue to move forward together.
"thank you for your good wishes."
Chen Mubai received many text messages of blessings, and he was replying to his friends.
Last year, Lu Fangfei and others offered to spend the New Year with him, but he refused.
He himself is a loner, but Lu Fang and others are not!
They worked hard outside and finally celebrated the Spring Festival during the year. How could he have the nerve to ask them to stay with him instead of going back to spend the New Year with his parents?
This year, they said the same thing, but Chen Mubai still refused.
"Two years."
Chen Mubai stood in front of the window, looking at the scenery in the distance.
Some families set off firecrackers together, creating a happy scene.
A few children were playing with firecrackers together. Throwing them on the ground would make them explode. Everyone was having a great time.
Some families are cooking and waiting for the New Year's Eve dinner.
The street had become deserted at this point.
Not a single car passed by on the usually busy road, so it was quiet.
It has been two years since he came here. Time flies so fast!
Every time he celebrates the New Year, he can think of his parents and younger brothers and sisters, and how they spent the New Year together.
There was no way he could go back, but every time this time came, he felt even more lonely inside.
Normally, you can use work to numb yourself and prevent yourself from thinking too much, but that's not possible today. There is no work and everyone is resting.
"I used to like celebrating the New Year, but now I hate it." Chen Mubai thought to himself.
In the past, the New Year was happy, but now it is lonely, and even he hates this festival.
"Let's cook first, and then write a script later." Chen Mubai arranged his time.
He skillfully took out the vegetables he had bought in advance from the refrigerator and first cooked two fishes. This is a tradition and symbolizes having fish (surplus) every year.
"Ding Lingling~"
The cell phone rang and kept ringing on the table in the living room.
"Who is calling at this time?" Chen Mubai was curious.
His friends had all given him their blessings in advance, and at this point in time, they should all be with their families, so how could they have time to call him?
With doubts, Chen Mubai walked to the living room and answered the phone.
"Hello……"
"Mr. Chen, happy New Year!"
"Didn't I bother you? I specially wish you a happy New Year. I wish you a prosperous career in the new year!"
Luo Fan's loud voice came over the phone, with a loud tone and a smile.
"It's Mr. Luo. I'm still wondering who will call me at this time. Thank you for your blessings, and I wish you all your dreams will come true in the new year!" Chen Mubai replied with a smile.
"I hope I didn't disturb you!" Luo Fan's hearty laughter sounded again.
"No way, I would be flattered if the boss called me to give me blessings."
"Okay, my blessings are here, I won't disturb you anymore."
"Thank you Mr. Luo for your blessing."
The two quickly hung up the phone.
Luo Fan's purpose for calling Chen Mubai was very simple. He was interested in Chen Mubai's potential and wanted to make friends in advance.
In his opinion, Chen Mubai will definitely become a top star in the industry. It is much better to become friends with him now than to wait until he becomes famous.
Especially when it comes to colliding with Qin Li's new album, Chen Mubai has shown huge potential. His new album has broken many records and is extremely popular!
Regarding the news on the Internet, he knew that it was Chen Mubai's opponents using public opinion to praise him in order to deal with him!
He was also curious about how Chen Mubai would solve this matter, but he found that Chen Mubai did not take any action, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
In the end, public opinion obviously reached an extremely high level, and then Chen Mubai's album helped him turn around. This album completely reached the height of praise from the outside world!
He himself lived up to expectations and turned those flattering words into facts!
This result shocked Luo Fan greatly, and at the same time, it also made him raise Chen Mubai's importance to another level, equal to his height, and treat him as an equal.
The two parties can cooperate again if there is an opportunity. The success of "The Magnificent Seven" is an example.
This cooperation does not only refer to cooperation with Chen Mubai, but also cooperation with his company. Chen Mubai himself also has his own company, and there are many projects that can be cooperated between the two companies.
Luo Fan used Chen Mubai's influence to promote "The Seven Heroes" in the mainland, and Chen Mubai, in turn, used the publicity and popularity of "The Seven Heroes" to promote his own album.
The two parties have a tacit understanding, complement each other, and both are winners. It is a very successful cooperation.
Luo Fan's phone call was to convey his goodwill. Chen Mubai also knew this, so he also responded to Luo Fan's goodwill.
Although both parties did not say a word explicitly, the underlying meaning was expressed, and the other party also understood the meaning from each other's words. This is the advantage between smart people. They do not need to specify the subject, but they can both understand the intention.
On this important holiday, no one, not your friends, will send you blessing messages, let alone make phone calls.
"He is an interesting person."
Chen Mubai didn't spend much time with Luo Fan, but he had a good impression of him.
As a big shot in the entertainment industry, Luo Fan has been in Xiangjiang for so many years and can be considered a high-ranking person.
The fact that he took the initiative to call Chen Mubai shows that he values Chen Mubai very much, and his tone is like talking to a friend, without the attitude of a superior. It was not so obvious last time in Haishi. It should be with Qin Li.
This is what happened after what happened.
No matter how popular Chen Mubai is in the entertainment industry, he is still a star, but he is far from having the capital to be treated like this by the big guys.
Speaking more broadly, Luo Fan represents the capital side, while Chen Mubai is a star and belongs to a disadvantaged group. Compared with such a big boss, his level is still a bit lower.
Luo Fan's company has several first-line stars, and their fame and status are not inferior to Chen Mubai's. The gap between Chen Mubai and him is indeed quite big.
His behavior is that he looks up to Chen Mubai very much and can interact with him as equals, which is basically impossible for other big guys.
Just like the top seven, Chen Mubai is just a passable star in their eyes, far from being taken seriously, let alone equal communication?
Luo Fan was investing in Chen Mubai's future and was willing to put aside his status to make friends with him. Chen Mubai had a clear conscience.
Just as he was thinking, his cell phone rang again.
Caller ID: Tao Yaoyao.
"What are you doing?" Tao Yaoyao's cheerful and sweet voice came.
Hearing her voice, Chen Mubai's feeling of loneliness dissipated a lot, and his tone became happier: "I'm cooking, how about you?"
"I'm waiting for the New Year's Eve dinner~" Tao Yaoyao said nonchalantly.
At every time from afternoon to evening, there are people having New Year’s Eve dinner.
"Did you miss me?" Tao Yaoyao said mischievously.
"think."
"Then do you want to see me?" Tao Yaoyao asked again with a smile.
"I want to see you." Chen Mubai replied, which was the standard answer.
He didn't expect to see her. He probably thought Tao Yaoyao was bored at home. She and Tao Qingchao were the only ones in her home, which was nicer than his, but not lively either.
"Then open the door!" Tao Yaoyao said happily.
"Open the door?" Chen Mubai asked doubtfully, "Have you come to my house?"
"No, you should be at home, you are lying to me!"
Tao Yaoyao: "Then you will know if you open the door!"
Chen Mubai opened the door suspiciously and saw Tao Yaoyao with a happy face, looking at him with a smile.
"You, why are you here!?" Chen Mubai was a little surprised. He really didn't expect Tao Yaoyao to appear here.
At this time, she should be celebrating the New Year with her father at home!
"Are you happy?" Tao Yaoyao said with a smile, "There's more!"
After speaking, Tao Yaoyao turned around, and everyone behind him stood up.
It turned out that it was Lu Fang and Li Feng and their group, Qian Duoduo and Lin Xue were among them, and a group of them all came here!
"You?" Chen Mubai was surprised again.
Obviously everyone has sent blessing text messages, but he thought they were all celebrating the New Year at home!
Why did you come to him?
Although he was confused, Chen Mubai was very happy, what a surprise!
Everyone came to his house to celebrate the New Year with him, and he was really touched.
Although he said that he didn't need anyone to accompany him, how could a person not be lonely? He mostly hoped to spend the New Year with others.
In this festival where thousands of homes are lit with lights, one person's loneliness is unbearable.
