Chapter 437 Li Qian Is Very Busy

What He Runqing said was a bit exaggerated, but it was basically true.

The current Li Qian is indeed not able to see him anytime, just as soon as he sees him.

As early as three years ago, Li Qian's studio was first established at that time, and everything was in the initial stage. There was only an eighth floor in the office area, but a large area of ​​space was still idle, and there were only seven or eight poor people in the company. work. At that time, Li Qian was also very busy. He was attending classes at school, and at the same time, he had to go to learn to sing, and then he had to make albums for Liao Liao and He Runqing, from song writing to arrangement, to directing, to demos, to the final recording Studio, and even the post-production, he did it by himself, and his daily time was filled with various things, but even so, at that time, he was still more leisurely than he is now.

Because... look now!

Although the company is currently concentrated on the eighth floor, the imaging department on the ninth floor and the independent computer special effects department on the seventh floor have begun to expand manpower and purchase equipment in large quantities. The music department at the upper level, up to now, includes singers, producers, musicians, musicians, recording engineers, sound engineers, managers, assistants, drivers, security guards, and a large number of administrative staff, there are a total of more than 160 people Worked here.

The entire eighth floor, although it has a large area, is still packed to the brim.

At the meeting at the end of last year, Qi Jie proposed to Li Qian, the big boss, three "not enough" that were widely circulated in the company, namely "not enough space", "not enough people" and "not enough cars". ".

First, the largest music department in the entire company, and all the office staff, are crowded on the eighth floor, and there are many large offices, rehearsal rooms and lounges on the eighth floor, which take up a lot of space, which directly leads to the eighth floor The office area is not enough, so Qi Jie asked to allocate half of the seventh or ninth floor to the music department. Of course, it is best to give the entire sixth floor here;

To this, Li Qian gave a very proud answer: Get in touch, and if the price is right, you can also buy the first, second, third, fourth and fifth floors below the whole building. Of course, try to borrow as much as possible.

Second, despite repeated purchases, the company needs more and more high-end business vehicles. Seeing that the three newcomers are about to release albums, and Zhou Ye and Zhou Mo are coming over again, they must be equipped with cars, right? You can't just match a car worth tens of thousands of yuan, can you? Therefore, the car is not enough;

In this regard, Li Qian's answer is: buy.

Third, there are not enough brokers.

Assistants are easier to handle. There are many young boys and girls who can be recruited at any time. As long as they are smart, they can help carry a bag, block people, answer a phone, and so on. Generally, it is easier to train them.

But the agent, it is not so easy to cultivate suitable candidates. At that time, Sun Meimei was still the manager of the brokerage department, together with Zou Wenhuai, Liu Mei and others, there were a total of five good agents in the company, each in charge of It's a mess, and it's over, but now, with the three newcomers about to release an album, and Zhou Ye going to dance alone, Sun Meimei will be transferred away after the next year, although there are also people like Wang Nanhao's manager Lu Yue who follow The skipped additions came in, but the company was still a bit stretched in terms of brokers.

In this regard, Li Qian's answer is a bit conservative: train your own people.

So, after a few years, the company quickly transferred a total of three newcomers to the brokerage department, and began to learn from several big-name brokers. They were Li Qian's former assistant, or secretary, Hu Min, and He just joined the company last year and has been at the front desk all the time, but later the details leaked out from nowhere, it turned out to be Liao Liao's younger sister, Liao Min, and a girl named Zhou Yaoyao who was originally working in the brokerage department.

So... With the success of the past three years, the entire Minghu culture has been rapidly expanding and expanding almost all the time, not to mention that in addition to the music department, Li Qian also established an additional department of influence and computer special effects department.

Today, even if the part of artistic creation is put aside, how many things do you have every day?

Although when it comes to the company's management, distribution, publicity and other matters, Li Qian is the shopkeeper and hand over everything to Qi Jie, but even if he only handles the mess on hand, it is enough for him busy.

Since last summer, the biggest thing he has done is undoubtedly the filming and post-production of "Legend of the New White Snake", and then "Once upon a Time You" and the Spring Festival Gala. This year just started spring, "Legend of the New White Snake" has not finished yet, Liao Liao's new album is released again, and now, even if Liao Liao's album is finished, next, he will continue to work on "Legend of the New White Snake" I have to keep an eye on the follow-up progress of "On the Road", and it seems that it is already May, and the new album of Rose Power will be released in October...

In addition, he wants to go to school, he wants to learn acting, he wants to eat, he wants to sleep, he wants to have sex!

It is conceivable that, except for a few people like Qi Jie and Liao Liao, the vast majority of people in the company can hardly meet Li Qian face-to-face—even Qi Jie, since this time Li Qian When Qian came back from the United States, he hadn't had time to talk to Li Qianshen yet!

So, after finally finishing Liao Liao's album, it means that Li Qian has nothing to rush. Of course, especially the singers, everyone wants to meet and chat with him. , It’s hard to say anything else, at least what should I do in the next step, I still have to say something, so I can have more confidence in my heart, right?

So, the next morning, miraculously, except for Liao Liao who was resting at home and didn't come, all the singers from the company who came here because they had something to do, all of them arrived.

Moreover, before nine o'clock, they were all here!

Then, in the company's largest lounge, He Runqing, Sun Ruoxuan, Wang Jingxue, Xie Bing, Zhou Ye, Zhuang Meiyue, Gerileng, Zhao Yuan, Wang Nanhao, Zou Wenhuai, He Wei, Li Jinlong, Liu Mei, Lu Yue, Whoops, ten people.

As everyone said at the banquet last night, line up.

At this time, in Li Qian's office across the wall, the people who were reporting to Li Qian and discussing some issues were the general manager Qi Jie and the new music director, Xie Mingyuan, who had already taken office.

…………

There can be a thick stack of things, and the three of them sit opposite each other, starting from the beginning, discussing one by one, and making plans one by one.

It is very expensive to buy all the five floors below, but with the strong cash reserves that Minghu Culture has accumulated today, even without bank loans, it is no problem to buy it, but the price is compared to three years ago. Overall a lot more expensive.

And there is also the issue of the lease term. The floors below have been leased to different companies. Even if Li Qian bought those floors with his own funds, he must wait until the lease contract expires before letting them change places.

So throwing out a lot of money, in fact, in the short term, can only charge more rent.

For the tenants on the five floors right now, the nearest one will expire this winter, and the furthest one will be renewed in the spring of this year, and will not expire until three years later.

But no matter what, the continuous development of the company will definitely need more office space in the future, and Li Qian really doesn't like the feeling of being crowded together, so apply for a bank loan and buy!

Of course, just like the previous purchase of the eighth and ninth floors, and the purchase of the sixth and seventh floors last year, the money needs to be transferred from Minghu Culture to purchase these properties as Li Qian's sole proprietorship, and then directly leased by Minghu Culture .

The reason for doing this is mainly to make it easier for Minghu Culture to have a stable office environment without too much consideration for investment properties.

In a word, Minghu culture does one thing, that is culture and art.

Then, Xie Mingyuan still insisted that the new album of Rose Power should be released in October. On the one hand, he felt that this would be able to strike while the iron is hot, and completely stabilize the status, appeal and popularity of Rose Power in the domestic music scene. Culturally speaking, it’s a small year—it goes without saying that He Runqing was pushed to December. Although Liao Liao decided to release an album in June, it was an album mainly composed of English songs. What kind of word-of-mouth and sales will be achieved, and whether she can continue the strength of her previous Chinese albums is still unknown. It's not enough for the Beauty Band and He Runqing to be one behind the other.

As for the albums of the three newcomers...like Zhuang Meiyue's "At Least You", to the outside world, and even to Zhuang Meiyue herself, a newcomer, the first album, can get the future expectations Within four to five million copies sold, this is certainly a success.

However, compared to the unrivaled dominance of Minghu Culture in the domestic record market in the past two years, it is clear that Zhuang Meiyue and the others are not likely to achieve it for the time being—even Zhuang Meiyue’s album The sales volume is slightly lower than the previous expectations of the company's top management.

A simple example, in the market PK with the little queen Li Xinru, Zhuang Meiyue only won her for two weeks. In the third week, she was overtaken by Li Xinru. It is very difficult to rebound back in the month.

Therefore, although Zhuang Meiyue became popular as expected, and the first shot of the company's newcomer promotion strategy was also very loud, but in terms of the company's marketing strategy, the performance of her album can only be achieved. It is not satisfactory.

Then, well, ask Qi Jie, Qi Jie said that there is no problem with publicity and distribution, and if it can be won...then do it!

Li Qian readily agreed to come up with six to eight works, and the producer of their second album still selected He Wei, the current deputy music director of the company.

In addition, Li Qian specifically proposed to focus on giving Wang Nanhao more opportunities, such as the new album of Rose Power, which uses a song by Wang Nanhao, using the heat of Rose Power to lead him along.

Xie Mingyuan immediately nodded in agreement.

At present, Li Qian's creative talent is still inexplicable, and there is no sign of exhaustion. It seems that the distraction of movies and TV dramas has no effect on his music creation, but in the long run From the looks of it, a record company that has grown to the current scale certainly cannot be supported by Li Qian's works alone.

Therefore, focusing on cultivating a few, or even a group of creators of their own lineage, is the highest priority for anyone who sits in Xie Mingyuan's position-this is the safest long-term solution.

Then, Qi Jie asked: Sun Meimei did not come back this time, is it true that she will be stationed in the United States for a long time in the future? Well, since Li Qian has made this "global plan" specially for Liao Liao, this step has already been taken anyway, then, is it necessary to take this opportunity to open a branch in the United States and try to operate the American market?

Li Qian thought for a while, then shook his head and denied it.

Liao Liao has that strength, Li Qian also has a song in his hand, and the opportunity is very suitable, so Li Qian decided to push her out of the country and into the world, but as far as the current situation is concerned, Minghu culture has not yet become a global model. The ability and confidence of the record company.

Among other things, just a distribution network is enough to keep Minghu culture stuck.

You know, like Rolling Stone and Sony, it took decades of development, step by step, step by step, to gradually reach what it is today, able to open branches all over the world, and spread distribution and sales networks. all over the world.

It is true that Li Qian has English works in his hands, but for a long time to come, even after Liao Liao, He Runqing, Zhou Mo, and Rose Power will all be pushed out of the country. This model is adopted, that is, the distribution rights in other regions beyond one's own ability are handed over to those international record industry giants to act as agents.

Not to mention, it has been more than a year now, and the distribution channels developed by Minghu Culture in Southeast Asia have not yet fully matured. Together, including joint ventures and acquisitions, there are already as many as five local distribution channels The company only accounts for about 35% of Minghu Culture's overall shipments to Southeast Asia.

This does not include many so-called parallel imports directly smuggled from China.

It can be said that the bowl of rice in Southeast Asia is still raw, and it has not been completely swallowed and digested. It is not appropriate to consider extending the tentacles now.

Of course, there is no need for a branch office, but it is still necessary to set up an office.

Sun Meimei stayed in the United States, the most important thing at the moment is to get the qualification certificate recognized by the local broker association in the United States, and then, when she has the qualifications to become a broker, she will start to organize Minghu Culture in the United States office.

At the same time, of course, Liao Liao needs an agent in Europe and the United States that is not covered by Minghu Culture, and it is best to sign with a local agency in the United States to be responsible for all brokerage affairs in the United States for her, and Sun Meimei , is the person responsible for representing Liao Liao and Minghu Culture, and connecting with the brokerage company over there.

In the United States, regardless of the nature of her job, she is called a manager.

After talking about this, Xie Mingyuan asked again, since Liao Liao's album is scheduled for June, in order not to kill each other, can we consider adjusting the release date of Zhao Yuan's album? For example, even if it is postponed until July, it can relieve the pressure on this album brought by Liao Liao to a certain extent.

After all, although everyone still doesn't know exactly what Liao Liao's album can sell in China, but at least Liao Liao's foundation and her heavyweight are there, so that Zhao Yuan alone When newcomers met her, and they were all from their own company, it felt like the Dragon King Temple was being flooded. Zhao Yuan personally felt that he was under great pressure and hurt.

However, Li Qian thought about it, shook his head and rejected the proposal.

Zhao Yuan, Zhuang Meiyue, and Ge Rilen are the newcomers whose company started promoting last year and will release it this year. The release date of their new album has already been set and publicized. So in this regard, the outside world, and even many fans, are looking forward to what good works Li Qian will produce for this album.

But Liao Liao's album was just an accident.

Therefore, although the two albums of two people are too close to each other, they will definitely accidentally hurt their own people to a certain extent, but Li Qian feels that the degree will not be too serious, so there is no need to lose faith in the market and fans.

Besides, there are only four Chinese songs in Liao Liao's new album. Maybe fans will find it unsatisfying after listening to it, and instead will take the initiative to find Zhao Yuan's album to listen to other songs released by Li Qian. Works too!

In the end, Xie Mingyuan thought about it and nodded in agreement.

…………

The three of them, who are currently here to explain the highest level of Lake culture and music affairs, discussed behind closed doors for more than an hour and a half, and many things were directly finalized during such discussions.

Then, Xie Mingyuan and Qi Jie pushed the door open one after the other and came out.

He went to the lounge next to him and knocked on the door, then pushed the door in and reminded: "We're done, hurry up!"

Everyone exchanged glances with each other, and finally looked at Zou Wenhuai tacitly.

In the current Minghu culture, Li Qian, the art director, and Qi Jie, the general manager, must be in the first order. Then, theoretically speaking, Xie Mingyuan's music director, Jin Han's video director, and Zou Wenhuai Art Director, is tied.

Besides, the people sitting in the room at the moment are either singers or the singer's manager, and they are all direct subordinates of Zou Wenhuai. Therefore, when queuing up, it must not be based on who came early, but must be calculated according to whose brand is bigger.

Many people are eager to try, but more people wait in silence.

After a while, He Runqing smiled and said, "Mr. Zou, why don't you go first?"

Zou Wenhuai smiled, stood up with difficulty, and tapped his watch, "Ha, that's okay, my business is very simple, three minutes!" After speaking, he opened the door and walked out without hesitation.

…………

"Momo said you won't go to her concert?"

"I can't guarantee that I will have time by then, brother, it's not that I won't go..."

"When you two are shameless, why don't you say you don't have time?"

"Brother Zou..."

"Don't mind, I'm Mr. Zou now."

"Didn't I also go to Liao Liao's concert? If I went to Mommo's place instead, I'm afraid they won't be happy. Please understand, okay? Mommo didn't say anything, did she?"

"She didn't say that she didn't want to embarrass you. Do you really think she doesn't care? You don't know her well? You two have been together for more than two years and almost three years. What did she ask you for? "

"..."

Li Qian was silent for a long time, then nodded, "Okay, I'll go, definitely go!"

Zou Wenhuai patted his buttocks to stand up, pushed the door and went out triumphantly.

When he got there, he opened the door and knocked on his watch again, "Two and a half minutes, it's done!"

…………

He Runqing said: You didn't have any big plans for the second half of the year, did you? With Lao Xie, I have cooperated many times, and I am familiar with each other enough, but I came here from his job, you are not going to return me to him directly, are you? Will you help me support my album at the end of the year? Also, my concert is about to start. At present, there are already 30 invitations reported by performers from all over the world. You and Mr. Cao, are you going to hold a concert and let me sell more tickets? ——The show business said, as long as you go and sing one song, we will add 1.5 million to our performance fee, and two songs will be 3 million...

Alright, alright, I will try my best to spare time, and I will try my best to call Lao Cao and the others, at least once, okay?

He Runqing opened the door contentedly and left.

…………

He Wei came in and asked: Brother Xie is here, and he took over your class as the music director, so what is my role next? In the future, with respect to music matters, will Brother Xie be in charge, or will it be through you?

Mr. Xie made the decision. If he thinks it is necessary, he will tell me again. I will intervene if I think it is necessary, but I will not directly intervene without bypassing him.

…………

Sun Ruoxuan came in and asked: My hosting training has long been over, but our company has discussed several times with Shuntianfu TV Station and Huaxia TV Station, and finally failed to settle it. We have to do the program by ourselves Son, will you continue to push forward, will you continue to do it? Should I continue to work on this?

want!

Even if you can't do the show for a while, the skills you have learned are always your own. Besides, Wang Jingxue is cold, Xie Bingdai, you are the only one of the three of you who is more alive, and you have to deal with the media and fans in the future There are too many things like this, and it is not a bad thing to learn more skills in speaking and leading topics. Yeduo is not overwhelmed!

…………

Wang Jingxue came in, was stunned for a while, and then said: "Actually, I have nothing to do, I just think everyone is coming, I don't come, it seems too special, so I came, you are busy, I am leaving."

…………

Xie Bing came in and said: "Actually, I have nothing to do, that is, I learned how to make dumplings recently, and then I discovered that the difference between making dumplings and making wontons is actually not that big. When you have time, remember Call me in advance, and I'll make dumplings for you to eat. Well, then... I'm leaving first, so keep busy, there are still a lot of people waiting!"

"Come here, let me kiss you before you go."

…………

Zhou Ye said: Brother, I can't believe what my sister Liao said, you have to give me some songs.

…………

Li Jinlong came in and said: Don't worry, Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie has come and took office. Everyone welcomes him very much. We will definitely support his work in the future and strive to make the company's products better and better! Of course, I will report to you in time if there is anything going on in the production department.

…………

Then, finally, it was Zhuang Meiyue's turn to open the door and come in.

She was a little excited, but more or less timid.

When it was Zhou Ye's turn, Li Qian still sighed helplessly and complained: What are you doing? Waiting for my interview? It's not all in such a hurry. Anyway, I have nothing else to do. I will definitely come here often. Why can't I talk about it later?

But when it was Zhuang Meiyue's turn, Li Qian had a smile on his face and didn't even mention a word of complaint.

He knew that Zhuang Meiyue was a girl who didn't talk much, but was delicate and sensitive.

The same sentence, if you say it to Zhou Ye, he will feel that you don't know him, but if you hear it in Zhuang Meiyue's ears, she will probably weigh it over and over again for many days, and think that she was born by herself angry.

So, when he saw her coming in, Li Qian smiled and looked him up and down, "Xiaoyue, you said that you... you are also the little queen of love songs after all, why do you still look so timid? Hold your chest up." Get up!...That's right, no matter who you are facing, you are now confident, open-minded, and face everything calmly! You know, you are popular!"

Zhuang Meiyue smiled embarrassingly, but there was still a smug look in her eyes.

It's rare, she still remembers how Li Qian asked them to study when he first joined the company. As far as Yue himself is concerned, every time he sees him, it is like a pilgrimage, and he hardly dares to say anything, but now, he actually joked with himself.

This feeling is really great!

After she sat down on the sofa, Li Qian asked her in a rambling manner about what happened recently. Are you tired of going out to publicize? Are the drivers and assistants around you satisfied? Do you need to change it? So far the album is selling well, are you happy? But don't get carried away, next, you still have a higher goal to achieve! If I remember correctly, our company distributes share to singers very quickly, so you are going to make a fortune, what are you going to do next? To buy a house?

And so on, blah blah.

Frankly speaking, in fact, there is absolutely no need for Li Qian to talk to her about these homely things, but people are different, like how Runqing is used to trouble, let alone no time, even if he has time, Li Qian will not talk to her. She talks about it.

If you want to continue to be popular, you need good works, and I will give you good works——He Runqing, a person who has been in the circle for a long time, will understand very well, this is better than all the chats, encouragements, comforts, etc. , all came more sincerely.

Therefore, the support has been given, so there is no need to talk nonsense.

But Zhuang Meiyue can't do it, and neither can Zhao Yuan and Ge Rilen, they are all young and young in this circle, no matter their age, at this stage, a certain amount of care is needed, even if it's just a chat It is common to say that this kind of care can give them great warmth and great encouragement, and their loyalty to the company and centripetal force are born from this.

So, even though he was very busy, and he just finished the recording yesterday and was very tired, Li Qian sat down patiently and chatted with Zhuang Meiyue for 20 to 30 minutes, and even told her directly without hesitation. : Since you intend to invest in shares, you should keep the money well. This matter is currently being prepared, and it will not be far away!

Zhuang Meiyue happily opened the door and went out.

But when she left, Li Qian was in a daze.

Yes, Zhuang Meiyue is on fire. The first album of a newcomer has exceeded 30,000 in a single week at Dongguan Bookstore twice, and it has been on the market for four weeks. So far, the overall sales curve is very beautiful. Looking at it in the long run If it is not, it is really not a big problem to break four million, or even five million.

But for Li Qian, he has his own worries.

Zhuang Meiyue is popular, but you must know that the current domestic record market is not the market that Liao Liao and Wu Xing Wu Su were when they first emerged a few years ago.

The current market has grown to a certain extent!

In addition to challenging the sales of tens of millions of copies, it is still extremely difficult for singers other than Liao Liao and Rose Power. Like Zhao Xinfu, his godhead has become more and more stable in recent years, and he can basically do it. Stable over 8 million copies.

In addition, Huang Yuqing's albums in the past two years are also very stable, and they are steadily rising step by step.

Moreover, they still have a foundation, like Li Xinru, Zheng Guofeng, etc., they are all in one step.

Up to now, Li Xinru has won five platinum for two consecutive albums. For the current third album, you can know that she killed Zhuang Meiyue who is still in the fourth week in the third week. Breaking through the next five million sales is a sure thing.

Although at present, unless this little queen can make further breakthroughs and innovations, otherwise she will obviously be a little weak to go up, but I have to say that in the current album, her godhead, It has also stabilized.

Not only is she no worse than Zhuang Meiyue, she is even worse!

As for Zheng Guofeng, needless to say, he became a hit last year. Up to now, it is said that his "Winter Rose" has gone to 8 million copies - even more than Liao Liao's first one. The album was even more raw.

It can be said that with such a sudden appearance of a little singer and songwriter, the position of Cinda Records has been stabilized at once.

And Li Xinru and Zheng Guofeng, Liao Liao, Wu Xing Wu Su, Rose Power, and even Zhuang Meiyue are actually the same, and they are all representatives of the booming domestic record market in the past few years.

So, apart from their top figures?

In fact, if three years ago, getting a platinum record was still a sign of strength, then now, a platinum record is no longer so "rare" in the domestic music market. Up to now, if you want to say that you are popular, you must have won double platinum to say this-not to mention, it was only last year that among the albums officially released in China, you got double platinum or above ’s new album, there are as many as 23!

This was almost unimaginable in the past, even just before 1995!

Moreover, if you take a wider view, you can actually find that although Liu Mingliang and Zhen Zhen, a group of veterans, have always given people a feeling of gradual decline in the past few years, in fact, when you Looking at the sales, you will find that although they did not complete the timely transformation in front of the new market like He Runqing did, so they could not get those new market shares, but in fact, if you only compare their own sales, in fact They didn't really slide.

It's just that the market is expanding too fast, but they can only continue to eat the old shares.

So, in fact, when all the information is fed back to Li Qian, when Li Qian listens to the recently released new albums one after another in his spare time, to feel the progress and development of the current domestic music scene with his heart, in As a time traveler, from the perspective of "comers", in fact, the domestic music scene is really becoming more and more mature step by step.

New styles are gradually emerging. Personality and unique personal style are gradually becoming the labels of many singers, and many things that are relatively new to the domestic music scene are being done by many people at the same time, and these new styles Although the people and companies are still relatively small at present, and the market sales are not as good as the popular styles, they are not losing money. Their albums are bought, and they can make money, so , this is a sustainable development thing.

For example, in the past 1998, two R&B and one RAP-style albums in China have successively won platinum records-this kind of thing, even in 1995, is absolutely impossible.

Therefore, Li Qian knew very well that it was precisely because of the emergence of Liao Liao and Wuxingwusu that the domestic music circle was stimulated. After thinking, saving, and making changes in the past few years, finally, this market began to More and more mature.

In the face of this more and more mature market, it is obvious that Li Qian's golden signature and the music that originally belonged to another time and space in his mind are excellent, although they are still excellent, but in comparison, they are gradually fading away. The shining halo no longer stands out from the crowd.

Therefore, the original company's internal market expectation for Zhuang Meiyue's "At Least You" was five million to seven million, but now it seems that this estimate is a bit too optimistic.

Although this internal estimate was not disclosed to the outside world, or even to the singer himself, in fact, Li Qian knew very well that this should be the first failure he has experienced since he set foot in the music industry.

Failure, of course, is not serious. Even in the eyes of colleagues in the industry, with a small voice like Zhuang Meiyue and a newcomer, Li Qian and Minghu Culture can find the right way to push it to this level. This has been a huge success.

But in Li Qian's heart, he knew clearly that if he couldn't come up with new gadgets in the future, then gradually, his huge golden signboard would gradually lose its color.

Just like Zhen Zhen and Liu Mingliang are going downhill.

For example, others may not be able to feel it yet, but he can now be sure that Zhao Yuan in June and Ge Rilen in August will achieve sales results after their new albums are released. All will be slightly lower than the company's publicity department's prior expectations—and this is just the beginning.

In a word, when everyone is scrambling to make themselves better and better, then if you only maintain the original level of excellence, you will gradually become mediocre.

…………

See each other one by one, talk about one thing by one.

Since Li Qian brought Liao Liao to leave Shuntianfu for Los Angeles at the beginning of this year, and now the new album is finally finished, the things that have accumulated for a long time that require Li Qian to make decisions have been dealt with cleanly and interrupted. The relationship that I hadn't contacted for a long time gradually continued - that night, Minghu Culture also directly booked a branch of He Runqing's "Xiangqing Small Restaurant", and held a grand internal celebration for Zhuang Meiyue. Li Qian even personally delivered a speech of congratulations.

Then, in Minghu Cultural Company, from musicians to singers, from department managers to ordinary staff, everyone's hearts settled down again without knowing it, and everything that was already on the right track continued to move forward. And the ones that were in danger of being derailed have stabilized again.

On May 6th, Xie Mingyuan flew to Los Angeles with the master tapes of the four Chinese songs that had been completely completed. The final post-production of Liao Liao's album will be completed by him and the musicians of Rolling Stone Records.

Of course Liao Liao can rest at home, while He Runqing and Zhou Mo continued to prepare for their concert.

Of course, it is impossible for Li Qian to be idle.

First of all, he has already missed a lot of classes. Although he had asked for leave in advance, with his consistent excellent grades, he would not be asked to repeat a grade by the school, but at least he still needs to put in a lot of energy to make up classes.

Then, during the time he was away, Liu Liuqing had already completed the first cut of the whole TV series. After the first cut was sent to the special effects department, even the special effects were more than half finished, and these, From the initial cut to the final cut, it is obvious that Liu can only do some auxiliary work. The real fine cut needs to be carefully grasped by the director Li Qian. As for the special effects, let alone every special effect The lens must be reviewed by Li Qian before it can be determined whether it is available.

Therefore, Li Qian continued to be very busy.

However, what made him feel a little comfortable was that the recent TV series imported from Japan was really popular, so many reporters in the entertainment industry were attracted by that TV series, so , Regarding the unusual movements of him and Liao Liao recently, no matter whether they have speculated or not, they are temporarily powerless to pester them.

Under this somewhat eerie silence, on May 10, Liao Liao also set off for Los Angeles.

There, she will participate in the world premiere of "Titanic" to be held on May 12 as one of the main creative staff.

But, at this moment, some troubles came suddenly just by saying that.

I'm so stubborn that I don't want to divide the chapters again... Brother "Mengniu Durian Milk", your leader Jiageng, I will give it a few days later, okay?

In addition, I saw some readers complaining in the book review area, saying that the chapters of your book are really expensive... Please, can you please check the word count of the chapters? Can a chapter of 10,000 words be the same price as a chapter of 2,000 words? The starting point has always been priced according to the number of words. This is not what I stipulated, right? Besides, even if you don't look at the word count, you can still pay attention to the page count, right? Look at the chapters of those books you said are cheap, how many times can you turn the page for one chapter? And what about my book? This account is very simple, right?

In the end, since it’s all over the word, is there any reason not to ask for votes?

Although I can't get the monthly ticket award or anything, but I can squeeze into the first page anyway, and it can help me attract a few new readers.

So, please help!
