Chapter 170 Team, Villa

Li Qian randomly found a good-looking teahouse on the street and walked in. While listening to music with headphones on, he turned his head from time to time to pay attention to the movement at the door.

About half an hour later, Li Jinlong opened the door and walked in.

Li Qian took off his earphones, stood up with a smile and waved to him.

Li Jinlong strode over, seeing Li Qian stretching out his hand, he quickly stretched out both hands, grabbed Li Qian's hand, shook it firmly, and said directly: "Young Master Qian, long time no see, I'm here to join you .”

Li Qian smiled, shook the other party's hand, and said, "Sit down and talk."

The two sat down separately, the waiter came over, Li Qian asked Li Jinlong's taste, then ordered a pot of cooked Pu, then looked at Li Jinlong with a smile, and asked: "Is it a little too impulsive? After all, Hua Ge is a big Company, you are the producer of Wuxingwusu, the future is very bright, my studio is only in preparation, to be honest, you are here to help me with the decoration, for you, it is too inferior."

Li Jinlong smiled when he heard the words, and said frankly: "Hua Ge just adjusted my salary not long ago, and now I can start to get dividends from the album. Although it is as big as a sesame seed, it is still a dividend, right? So, hehe , if you want to be serious, I should be content with my own ability to get to this point in Hua Ge, and I shouldn't think about changing jobs or resigning. But..."

Just when the waiter came to serve tea, he paused until the waiter poured a cup of tea for the two of them and walked away. Then he continued: "But, I know myself. I was ignorant when I was young. I think I am very talented, but after so many years in the industry, especially after seeing your humble talent, I completely understand that I am a person who is not very good at music. So, even if I continue to be a producer, it’s just a vegetarian meal, and I can’t talk about making any achievements, on the contrary, I think it’s okay to handle some daily affairs.”

"You asked me to choose, make decisions, and make directions. I can't do it, at least it's mediocre, and I can't do it well, but whether it's taking care of daily affairs, or making albums, running errands and other trivial tasks, how much do I know? After a while, I have a little network of people in the circle. So I thought, the most suitable position for me may be to find a genius like you Qian Shao to help you. To put it bluntly, I feel now that I The position should be to be someone's assistant. Hehe, Qianshao, your studio is about to open, so I wondered if I could come over and give you a hand."

"With you here, the future of the studio will definitely be prosperous. I can't hide my small thoughts from you. My advantage over others is that I have known you from a relatively early age, so I am shy. Come here with a straight face and take a seat first. I hope to have a good time with you in the future, Qian Shao. We have known each other for a while, and we have dealt with each other a few times. I can’t guarantee anything else. Son, I promise a hundred intentions!"

Speaking of which, he didn't drink tea, just looked at Li Qian.

Li Qian put down his teacup, smiled, and said, "My studio has not opened yet, so I'm going to poach Hua Ge's general here first... Will it seem a little aggressive?"

As soon as he said this, a look of disappointment flashed across Li Jinlong's face. But soon, he still showed a smiling face, and laughed at himself: "Young Master Qian is joking, I have been working for more than ten years, and I have just become a second-level producer. Thanks to you, Qian Shao, I took up the title of "Sister and Sister Station" "Get Up" album sold very cheaply, what kind of general... It's really a joke."

Li Qian smiled, fingering the teacup unconsciously, just when Li Jinlong's heart was getting heavier and heavier, he suddenly asked: "Resigned?"

Li Jinlong was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly, "I have already resigned."

Li Qian nodded, swayed the teacup again for a while, and then said: "Then come!"

Li Jinlong was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he looked at Li Qian in surprise.

But at this time, Li Qian thought for a while and said: "As for my studio, although I bought a place, it's not too small, but at the beginning, I didn't plan to make it big. In this way, the administrative affairs, just My manager, Sister Qi, will be in charge, and you will take the lead in matters related to music, do you think it will work?"

Hearing this, Li Jinlong nodded immediately, with a look of great excitement, "Thank you Qian Shao for your trust, don't worry, I still say the same thing, regardless of ability or size, I am absolutely 100% attentive. I have great strength , never give nine points!"

Li Qian smiled, nodded and said "OK", and then asked again: "Do you have a non-competition agreement with Hua Ge?"

Li Jinlong nodded when he heard the words, and said helplessly: "One year! Within one year, you are not allowed to engage in any work in music."

Li Qian nodded.

In fact, non-compete agreements are not limited to the music industry. They exist in large numbers in many industries, especially those with strong technical expertise. The so-called non-competition agreement generally stipulates that if you resign or change jobs before the work agreement is fulfilled, in order to prevent you from jumping to the opponent’s side and attacking yourself in turn, and at the same time to avoid leaking some business secrets, the company It will be stipulated in the agreement that you will not be employed by other similar companies within a certain period of time after you leave the company, and you are not even allowed to work in the same industry.

After thinking for a while, Li Qian said: "Well, anyway, you just resigned, so you can rest at home first, and at the same time, walk around in the circle and help me find some people. Like singers with good qualifications, or people with good standards. musicians and the like, um, especially arrangers, I know there are many underground arrangers in this circle, they are not signed with any company, and they usually don’t get any big jobs, they all rely on records The company accepts some second-hand loose jobs. To be honest, they do a lot of work, but they don’t make much money. Please help me to pay attention and contact some good ones. Well, especially in the field of film and television soundtracks.”

Hearing the previous ones, Li Jinlong just nodded with sparkling eyes, but at the end, he couldn't help but widen his eyes instantly, "Soundtrack for film and television? Is there a way for our studio? Can we get this piece of work in the future?"

Li Qian smiled, and said casually: "I'm not sure, I'll wait and see, there should be some hope, let's make preparations in advance."

Li Jinlong nodded when he heard the words, and his heart became agitated immediately.

Although he doesn't have much contact with Li Qian, he still has some understanding of Li Qian. He knows that although Li Qian is young, he does things very well. If he is not very sure, he probably won't mention it. . Since he mentioned it, it basically means that he is at least eighty to ninety percent sure.

So he said a little excitedly: "Don't worry, Qian Shao. I have been in this circle for so many years. I can't say anything else. I will grab a lot of musicians and arrangers I know. I promise to pick a few levels for you. Let you see it!"

Li Qian nodded, and then specifically reminded: "Although there is a non-compete agreement, don't relax too much, you won't be free for long. After a while, I will consider taking over the production of Wu Xing Wu Su's next album, It can be regarded as the opening work of the studio, and by that time, it is estimated that your business will just be mentioned in passing."

After a pause, he said affirmatively, "It's as short as one month, and as long as two months."

This is equivalent to giving an affirmative answer. Within two months, Li Jinlong will be able to officially work in Li Qian's studio. Of course, before that, he needs to get a few singers, musicians and arrangers.

But for Li Jinlong, this is already the best result.

As long as he thinks about the jaw-dropping and brilliant achievements Li Qian has created in the past year, Li Jinlong is full of confidence in his prospects after joining Li Qian's studio.

So, he didn't care about the tea being cold, and after taking a few sips, he chatted with Li Qian again, and when he got up to leave, even walking seemed a bit vigorous.

But when he left, Li Qian sat in the teahouse by himself for a while, but he felt awkward no matter how he thought about it—to open a studio, he bought such a large area and spent a lot of money for decoration. Before doing it, of course he knew that he was about to leave the days of solo training. From now on, it would be tantamount to raising his flag and standing on the top of the mountain. He even felt that he was mentally prepared, but Li Jinlong's sudden appearance, But it woke him up all of a sudden.

Although a sparrow is small, it has all five internal organs.

If the internal organs are complete, it is obviously impossible to continue to be as casual as before, and rules and regulations must be established for everything.

But to be honest, in the two lifetimes, the thing Li Qian dislikes the most is the rules and regulations.

what time to work? What time do you leave work? How many administrative staff do you need to recruit in the studio? What do they do? How much should their wages be set? Bonuses, what's the incentive system for the horse, how should it be formulated? In normal times, how should this company be managed? Moreover, the studio has been established, and in the future there will definitely be external work. What kind of work do you take? How to give an approximate price to the outside world? Musicians, singers and arrangers signed in, how to manage?

and so on and so forth.

All kinds of things are mixed together, Li Qian thought it was far away at first, he can wait until the decoration is completed, the studio has set up a grass-roots team, and then slowly start to do it bit by bit, to accumulate , but now, he suddenly discovered, no, administrative staff can of course be recruited after the opening of the business, and musicians can also be contacted slowly in the future. At present, when there are relatively few businesses, if it is just selling and making songs like before, I can play solo by myself, but for some things, if you foretell, you will succeed, and if you don’t forewarn, you will lose. No matter how much you don’t like it, you still have to start thinking about it and start doing it.

However, Li Qian in the previous life was practicing solo from beginning to end. Whether he was an underground singer or musician at the beginning, or later he started to take on film and television soundtracks, and then he started to take on TV dramas, he was always a solo practitioner. model, and even waited until he had filmed several TV series before he started to have his first agent. So at this time, he was really at a loss for letting him fiddle with these things by himself.

Well, basically, once he leaves the music itself, or the film and TV series production itself, he becomes a layman, a rookie who almost knows nothing.

He sat in the teahouse by himself for a long time, tossing and turning and thinking for a long time, in the end, he still had to sigh, okay, leave and go to find Qi Jie.

It's better to leave these things to Qi Jie to worry about.

Although she is an amateur in music, she has worked in the unit formally anyway, and she has read many professional-level tomes in the past six months. I have more experience and have more say.

So he paid the bill and drove straight to Liao Liao's house.

Qi Jie currently has no residence in Shuntian Mansion, and is staying at Liao Liao's house temporarily.

As a result, when Li Qian arrived, it happened that Liao Liao and Huang Wenjuan were pulling Qi Jie to go out. Seeing Li Qian frowning, looking worried, Qi Jie asked what was wrong, but Liao Liao said carelessly: " What else can he do, he must be worried that school will start soon, he will have military training, he is thinking of an excuse to escape military training, right?"

Li Qian originally wanted to talk to Qi Jie about something serious, but when Liao Liao asked him to say this, he couldn't help laughing. After thinking about it carefully, it was really, military training, a very annoying thing, especially, I have obviously participated once in my previous life, and I really don't want to suffer that crime again in this life.

But at this time, he smiled and asked Liao Liao, "When did you come back? Why are you going?"

Liao Liao said: "I came back yesterday. Commercial performances are not tiring, but flying back and forth is tiring. I ran two places, and I slept for more than ten hours when I came back. I don't want to move. It is said that He Runqing will I don’t know how she survived at least 20 or 30 commercial performances!" While speaking, she grabbed Li Qian and said, "Come on, you also go together to see my new house!"

Li Qian was surprised when he heard this, "A house? Did you buy a house?"

Liao Liao said with a smile: "I haven't bought it yet, but it is said that the house is good. I want to look at it and buy it right away!"

To put it bluntly, two albums have been sold out one after another. Changsheng Records has made a lot of money, but Liao Liao, as a singer, must have received a lot of commissions. Simply speaking, her first album "Liao Liao" has been paid up to now. It has already sold nearly 5 million copies, and it is estimated that it will not be a problem to exceed 5 million copies before the end of the year. The 10% share that Liao Liao got from this album is as high as 5 million!

Moreover, this album "The Sound of the Waves Still" is said to have sold 4 million copies, and it will easily pass 6 million copies before the end of the year, which is obviously a lot of money. And she didn't have any extra consumption. The major expenditures in this year, that is, the purchase of a Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle for less than 200,000 yuan, was considered a business car, so the money was naturally saved.

In the current Shuntian Mansion, although the commodity economy has been in operation for many years, the housing prices have been rising steadily in recent years, but the single-family villas in the fourth ring road with a better location, two to three floors, five to six hundred square meters For those with an area of ​​700 to 800 square meters, you can only buy a set for around 5 million yuan. If the angle is slightly off, or the area is smaller, a villa is only 2 to 3 million yuan. Even if you go to a slightly suburban area, a villa will cost less than one million. With Liao Liao's current wealth, there is no pressure to buy such a house, so naturally he said this with pride.

So Li Qian was helpless, before he had time to say a few words, and had no chance to mention the things he was thinking about, Liao Liao pulled her into her business car and accompanied her to see the house.

"Anyway, it's useless for me to save money. I want to use it to make some investments and buy individual stocks, but I've been pushed and rejected! Well, I'll buy a big villa! Miss Ben wants to enjoy life! She wants to spend money like crazy!"

Several people sat in her Mercedes-Benz business car together, Huang Wenjuan was in charge of driving, Li Qian was in the passenger seat, Liao Liao was a little bit snarky, and shouted: "Juanzi, let's eat donkey meat and burn it later, that's all. Let's eat one and take one!" He patted Qi Jie and said, "You go too, my lady treats you!"

As she spoke, she kept squinting at Li Qian.

Li Qian raised his eyebrows, turned his head and looked back, the two looked at each other, Li Qian smiled and asked, "Have you heard cross talk recently?"

Liao Liao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised his leg and kicked Li Qian on the back of the seat, and stopped talking.

... ... ...

What a nice house.

In the East Fourth Ring Road, slightly north, it is very convenient to go northeast to the airport, and it is closer to the studio if you go south to the Fourth Ring Road, but it is not a commercial area nearby, and there is still a distance from the Fourth Ring Road. Before entering the community, Huang Wenjuan drove I drove around the neighborhood in a car, and found that the surrounding area is not only convenient for living, but also not noisy at all.

This role, this environment, there is nothing to choose.

The community has just been built for more than a year, and the houses are still being sold. Many people have already moved in. The surrounding construction is also doing well. The big villa, single-family, European style, has two and a half floors. On the third floor, you can build a greenhouse by yourself. Hua, you can also build an open-air swimming pool. If you want to be really flamboyant, you can build a helicopter pad yourself and no one will care about you.

There are two large independent garages extended next to the villa, and there are four exclusive parking spaces outside. The entire house does not include garages. The building area of ​​the whole house is nearly 700 square meters, and the asking price is only 5.58 million. And the sales manager took a look The owner of the house is actually the famous singer Liao Liao. He immediately said that he could ask the boss for instructions and get a 10% discount. If Liao Liao can move in within a year, it will be as low as 20% off. The condition is that the other party needs to mention Liao Liao when promoting sales. Check in.

Of course, without authorization, people will not publicize and publicize it.

The four people wandered up and down and looked at it, and they were all satisfied. The materials used were very solid. The walls, windows, and stairs were all made of solid and elegant feeling. What's even more rare is that Liao Liao fell in love with it immediately.

Therefore, Qi Jie stepped forward again to be responsible for bargaining.

But her bargaining was so ruthless that the sales manager couldn't make the decision. In the end, the sales manager reported back, and the other party's general manager heard that Liao Liao was really buying the house, so he rushed over at that time. This time, it was no use Qi Jie's bargaining, the other party directly gave a frightening offer: 40% off!

A large villa of 700 square meters within the fourth ring road, the garage is a gift, the final price is: 3.3 million!

This price was so low that Qi Jie was too embarrassed to bargain any more!

But Liao Liao blinked, and suddenly said that he wanted to see something else, and then asked the sales manager to take him, and the group wandered around to see the other two villas for sale.

The other party's general manager didn't know whether he was afraid that Liao Liao wouldn't buy it or what, so he made a promise at the time that no matter which building Liao Liao chose, he would get a 40% discount! If you buy two buildings, you can also get a 20% discount on the second building!

This was obviously in Liao Liao's favor, but she blinked her eyes a few times, and in front of the expectant general manager, she didn't nod on the spot, she just said to think about it, and then she pulled Qi Jie and bit her ear for a while .

Then Liao Liao took Li Qian and Huang Wenjuan into the villa and looked around, leaving only Qi Jie outside.

And when the four of them finally finished their house-watching trip and got into the business car and started to go back, Li Qian found out that Qi Jie actually bought three villas on behalf of Liao Liao just now!

Hearing this news, Li Qian was startled, and quickly asked, "Why did you buy so many houses? Where did you get so much money?"

Liao Liao rolled his eyes, "I want you to take care of it! I'm happy!"
