Chapter 41: Well-known but seemingly not
"tasty."
Song Ge picked up the dumplings that had fallen on the plate, blew on them, and took a big bite. His mouth was suddenly oily.
"If you like this stuffing, we can eat it interchangeably."
Lin Zhixing looked at Hanhan's smiling eyes, shook his head with a smile, took out a tissue from his pocket, pulled out one, and reached out to wipe the oil stains from the corners of her mouth.
"Uh-huh."
Song Ge lowered his hot face and nodded slightly.
"Click..."
Well, what's the sound?
Lin Zhixing vaguely heard the sound of a wooden stick breaking, and glanced in the direction of the sound. The disposable chopsticks held by Liu Hao were broken with one hand.
Eyes touching a piece...
Liu Hao snorted coldly, threw away the broken chopsticks, picked up the mobile phone on the table, stood up and left. He only took one bite of the steamed bun.
Lin Zhixing looked at his lost figure and shrugged his shoulders.
That's right, it's right to leave. Brother, how can you compare it with the feelings you have cultivated since childhood?
"The relationship between childhood sweethearts is better!"
The innocent Dong Chen cupped his chin and looked at the two people feeding each other, and sighed with emotion: "Although I don't have childhood sweethearts, I had a good buddy when I was a child. I really miss him now."
Ji Yu raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Really? Why have I never heard you say that?"
Dong Chen raised his eyes and recalled: "He and I were both kids who grew up in an alley, and we had a very good relationship. I was so happy when I think about it. We didn't have the pressure to run around the alley naked all day long. It seemed like I was 6 years old, he’s 21.”
"Ah? Do you still have contact now?"
"There has been no contact since he entered."
"puff!"
Lin Zhixing almost spit out a mouthful of buns.
He raised his head and glanced at Song Ge across the table. She lowered her head and sipped the buns in small mouths. She smiled silly from time to time. She didn't know what she was thinking.
Ji Yu frowned and didn't quite understand. She turned around and asked, "By the way, Brother Lin, have you checked your phone today?"
Lin Zhixing chewed the bun, shook his head and said vaguely: "No, what's wrong?"
Ji Yu pointed to the mobile phone on the table and explained: "Today at noon, the program team has a live broadcast. It mainly interviews the chief director Ji Lei, and also takes photos of the daily life of the contestants. The contestants in the first and second classes are all We have to make an appearance, especially since we performed well in the last period, and we may have to answer netizens’ questions and answers.”
After hearing this, Lin Zhixing couldn't help complaining, "Usually there are cameras everywhere, but the filming and recording are not enough. They also do live broadcasts. It's really troublesome!"
"Hey, there's nothing we can do. It's not up to us."
Ji Yu pursed her lips and said, "But I think this is a good opportunity to increase my popularity. After all, this show is very popular. I will have to think carefully about how to introduce myself after dinner."
Dong Chen looked at his girlfriend who was thinking seriously and said with a smile: "Baby, I'm stupid, so you can talk to me during the interview."
"OK."
Ji Yu smiled and nodded, then suddenly remembered something, turned around and asked curiously: "Brother Lin, I want to ask you something. You are so popular online, has any music company contacted you to sign a contract?"
Lin Zhixing nodded, "We were contacted at the end of the second period, but I rejected them. Now have you been contacted by the music company you signed with?"
Ji Yu pursed her lips and said, "We were contacted by several people at the end of the last issue. We didn't sign because the company didn't have enough resources. To our surprise, Haisen Records also came to see us, but the conditions they offered were a little bit... too poor."
Hyson Records?
Lin Zhixing sounded familiar and asked doubtfully, "Is Haisen Records the owner of Sunshine Youth League?"
Ji Yu nodded, "Yes, we are very excited about this company, but the contract is a bit hard to accept."
Lin Zhixing asked curiously: "What kind of contract was given to you?"
Ji Yu sighed softly and explained: "In short, it is difficult to make money. You must first repay the company for training you. This will take who knows how long. The money will be divided after the repayment is completed. The share is 20%. The company is 80%.”
It’s so normal. There are music talent shows on the planet where you have the potential to become popular. If you don’t sign a contract, you will even be eliminated early.
After hearing this, Lin Zhixing nodded and kindly advised: "Keep your eyes open. Don't rush to sign just because the company is big. Many companies, for example, sign 100 artists, only spend money and traffic to cultivate 2, and ignore the remaining 98." , when they can’t afford to terminate the contract with the company and earn the default money.”
Dong Chen and Ji Yu looked at each other and nodded, "Okay, we will take it seriously."
…
…
It’s 10:30 in the morning, half an hour before the live interview.
"Boom, boom!"
Lin Zhixing was arranged by the staff to meet Ji Lei before recording. He arrived at the door of the chief director's office on time, raised his hand and knocked on the office door.
"Please come in."
"Hello, Director Ji!"
Lin Zhixing pushed the door open and said hello to Ji Lei who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea.
"Hey, Xiaolin is here, sit down quickly!"
Ji Lei smiled and pointed to the sofa next to him, and pushed over another cup of tea.
"good."
Lin Zhixing took a polite sip of tea after sitting down. He didn't have much sleep last night and didn't dare to drink more. Now that he was close, he looked at Ji Lei carefully.
I am different from the one on the poster. On the poster, he is a man in a suit and leather shoes with a serious face. He is now dressed in a sporty style, with a big vest and shorts and sneakers. He has a neatly trimmed beard and a very amiable smile. .
Ji Lei looked Lin Zhixing up and down and nodded with satisfaction, "Young people are full of energy. They are full of high spirits."
"Thank you for the compliment."
Lin Zhixing smiled back.
"Are you used to living in a dormitory? Do you like the food in the cafeteria?"
"It's very good. The program team has arranged everything very well."
"good."
Ji Lei smiled and reached out to pat Lin Zhixing on the shoulder, "Xiao Lin, if you need any help, just come to me directly. You and your partner are now the guarantee of the show's ratings, and I will definitely give you preferential treatment." Yours."
Why did he come to see me? Why didn't he get down to the topic for a long time.
"thank you."
Lin Zhixing hadn't thought about how to introduce himself for a while, so he had no patience anymore. He smiled and asked straightforwardly: "Director Ji, who are you looking for?"
"Oh, that's right."
Ji Lei smiled and held out two fingers: "There are two things in total. The first thing is that at one o'clock this afternoon, instructor Wang Cong has something to ask you and your partner."
Lin Zhixing asked curiously: "What does Teacher Wang want from us?"
"He appreciates you very much. Maybe he wants to talk to you about cooperation."
Ji Lei didn't say much, "The second thing is, I hope you and your partner will take advantage of the current popularity to open Weibo, and later use the live broadcast to increase your fans. In the future, if you have more fans, you can also help the show." advertise."
"Oh, sure."
Mutually beneficial, Lin Zhixing nodded. He had already planned to open it, but he just wanted to wait for Song Ge to open it together. It would be good to use this program to gain some fans later.
"oops."
Lin Zhixing suddenly slapped his thigh and said regretfully: "I should have changed my nickname earlier, but now it's definitely too late to use my real name."
Ji Lei took a sip of tea, smiled and shook his head.
"I just searched, Oh Ye Ge, Oh Ye Ge No. 1, Oh Ye Ge No. 2, Oh Ye Ge himself... There are many such nicknames, but no one uses them."
Lin Zhixing: "???"
Fans, are you polite?
