Chapter 178: The period of emotional burnout: Empty your heart little by little with simple meals!
Speaking of which, Pei Jingshu actually doesn't think "long-distance relationship" is a bad thing.
She believes that no matter whether they are lovers or friends, they should not be too familiar or too close and stick together all day long.
Because we are together every day, we will talk to each other about all the topics that can be said, should be said, and should not be said. When all the topics are exhausted, we will start to find trouble.
Similarly, if you stick together every day, you will know everything about the other person, even if he talks about it, you may not be interested.
The burnout period is about to begin.
On the contrary, if it is a different place...
If it's been a long time no see...
They will cherish every time they meet.
Every time you see something that happened recently that the other person doesn't know about, you can share it with him, tell him about it, and look forward to the next meeting.
It will also make the shelf life of the relationship longer and prevent the burnout period from coming so quickly.
Originally, according to Pei Jingshu's personality, she would not be very clingy and would be willing to leave enough space for the other person when they were separated.
But for some reason, just after they separated, she just wanted to see Gu Huaian again and looked forward to the next meeting...
From the past until now, they have been together far too often.
Couples who are in the passionate love stage really wish they could always stick together. Obviously they have just entered that stage...
"good."
When replying to Pei Jingshu that she would definitely watch her "Singer of the Times" singing competition, Gu Huaian didn't know if his schedule was suitable, and he didn't even ask his assistant about his upcoming work arrangements.
But he still agreed.
So in fact, Xiao Gu also wanted to see Sister Pei.
So actually from this moment on, they started looking forward to their next meeting.
…
Pei Jingshu left, and Gu Huaian and Xilin were the only ones in the car back.
It's a bit sad to say that when the seven of them arrived, they were all lively and chattering. Shang Zhuoyan and Gu Huaian were playing around, and Shen Qingqing, the little boy, was chiming in from time to time. The others were responsible for laughing and occasionally echoing a few words...
It's good now, it's just the two of them.
When going out, Xilin thought that maybe they would not be all alive when they went back, but she never thought about it...
She and Gu Huaian were the only ones left.
Similarly, Xilin was also a little helpless. Why were she and Gu Huaian the only ones left?
"..."
It's quite quiet in the car.
Gu Huaian sat in the front, Xilin sat in the back, and the driver drove the car.
Because the recording is over, there are no cameras or staff in the car, but even so...
Along the way, they didn't say a word to each other.
In fact, it's not that Gu Huaian doesn't want to talk about it, it's mainly because he feels a little embarrassed. MD still remembers everything that happened the night before yesterday. How should I put it?
He is also an innocent boy...
On the way, he occasionally turned around to peek at Xilin, but immediately turned back after being discovered by Xilin...
"Puch..."
This time, her sister was amused. She brushed back the messy hair on her temples and smiled helplessly.
When Gu Huaian and Xilin returned to the Crystal Courtyard, some staff were already packing up and demolishing the venue...
The Crystal Courtyard is the recording venue for the program "Crystal Love Season". During the recording, a lot of renovations and decorations will be done to make the entire courtyard, including the guest rooms, look beautiful and exquisite.
The most important thing is the sponsor's billboard.
Now that the recording of the program is over, almost everything belonging to the program group has to be dismantled and taken away. Even the watches hanging in the damn room have to be taken off.
This demolition...
It's really a bit unpleasant to look at.
Gu Huaian felt a little...empty.
After all, there is always some emotion involved in transforming oneself from an amateur into a popular artist.
Relatively speaking, the mature sister Xilin is used to this. She has also recorded some variety shows. What is important to her is not the place, but the people.
"cough……"
Seeing Gu Huaian standing stunned in the middle of the small courtyard with a sigh on his face, Xilin couldn't help but walked over, gathered the shawl on her shoulders, and coughed lightly.
Gu Huaian was startled and then turned to look at Xilin...
"Sister Xi... Xilin." He chuckled.
Xilin gave him a charming look and said:
"If I don't call you, do you plan to never talk to me again?"
"No, I...that..."
Gu Huaian didn't know what to say for a moment.
His silly look actually amused Xilin. Her sister raised her jade hand and patted his arm, smiling:
"Okay, that night we...we all drank too much, so we just thought it was a kiss scene, nothing more."
When she said this, Xilin could not help but think of the scene from the night before yesterday. She really didn't expect that Gu Huaian would respond to her and kiss her a second time.
She originally thought she was mentally prepared when she said these words, but when these words blurted out, she felt ashamed again...
She, Siren!
I forcibly kissed my younger brother, and then he kissed me back...
It’s shameful to think about it!
"ha……"
Gu Huaian nodded and said:
"Yes, Sister Xilin... that's right."
In fact, Gu Huaian also wanted to say something, but felt that nothing was appropriate, so he didn't say anything in the end.
Xilin shook her head, suppressing her shame and pretending to be generous, she said:
"I didn't eat much at noon. I'm a little hungry. The kitchen hasn't been opened yet. Why don't we cook something to eat before we leave?"
They were both on an evening flight, and now it was just the two of them before they parted, so of course they wanted to cherish the last moments.
It was already around six o'clock in the afternoon, and it was just time for dinner.
"OK."
Gu Huaian nodded and walked into the kitchen. Xilin said that he wanted to eat the hot pot noodles he had ordered the morning he arrived, so Gu Huaian cooked a pot of noodles, which was exactly two bowls.
There was some beef in the refrigerator, so he took it out and cut it into pieces so that it wouldn't be wasted after eating.
The two of them were sitting at the bar of the restaurant, watching the staff dismantle the small courtyard bit by bit. For some reason, they only ate less than half a bowl, and Xilin suddenly couldn't eat the noodles...
"Do you know now why I rejected Su Yuntang?"
Lifting up a pair of round and slender jade legs, my sister suddenly said.
Gu Huaian raised his head and glanced at Xilin, then lowered his head and said:
"Okay...you know."
He said he knew, probably because Siren kissed him that night.
But Xilin smiled and shook her head. She pointed at the hot pot noodles and beef in front of her, and pointed at the two of them and said:
"This is the life I want. Two people, all year round, three meals a day, simple meals, and whatever is available at home."
"he……"
"It's not like this."
After the words fell, her sister stared at Gu Huaian closely with her phoenix eyes.
Just say, you are like this.
yes……
Look at Gu Huaian just now, he can make a simple meal with just a few things in the kitchen, and he can also use the leftover edible things in the refrigerator.
If it were Su Yuntang, he might not even notice if things in the refrigerator were rotten. He would only use what he wanted to use.
Xilin is such a woman who wants to live a normal life. She never wants much, but even that little bit, Su Yuntang can't do it.
She doesn't need him to change for herself, they are not the same person.
It's okay to be friends with whom you can occasionally go out to chat, drink tea, play ball, or watch piano performances, but it's not appropriate to be lovers.
"Um……"
Gu Huaian nodded in recognition, but he couldn't say anything.
Just then...
"Sister Xilin..."
Xilin's assistant helped pack her things upstairs and brought them down, telling her to leave.
"Okay, come right away."
Xilin greeted, and then said to Gu Huaian helplessly and apologetically:
"Maybe I'll have to trouble you to wash the dishes alone this time."
In the past, it was the two of them who washed it.
"Oh, it's Okay."
Gu Huaian shook his head and stood up, as if bidding farewell to Xilin.
"Okay, no need to send it away."
Xilin stood at the door. It was just evening at this time, and the yellowish light of the sunset reflected on her sister's big waves. Her exotic and pretty face was so charming.
She came forward and hugged Gu Huaian and said with some ease and boldness:
"Will you contact me often in the future?"
"Okay, of course."
Gu Huaian nodded and did not send it off. He just watched Xilin and her assistant leave the small courtyard without looking back.
this time.
Gu Huaian was really the only one left.
After Xilin left, to be honest, Gu Huaian felt very complicated. He had never thought that he would be so popular with girls before. When he came to this show, he just learned that he didn't think he was worthy of these three top female guests. anyone.
Now, he is troubled by the liking of the three female guests.
He is just a normal person who feels sorry for not being able to return their likes.
But finally, "Crystal Love Season" is over, and I will be busy with work in the future, so I may not have the time or opportunity to meet with Xi Lin and Shang Zhuoyan more often.
It doesn't matter anymore.
After eating the noodles and washing the dishes, the staff just came in to tear down the kitchen.
Even that spokesperson’s gas stove is going to be dismantled...
Gu Huaian couldn't bear to watch, feeling that the process of demolishing the small courtyard was like hollowing out his heart bit by bit.
He went upstairs to pack his things and left hastily with his assistant...
The finishing work here is almost left to the staff. Gu Huaian will have to go back to the capital for the time being. Not only is he busy with some work, but he also has to go back to the company.
As for work, I mainly have to record three songs, "Stubborn", "Light Chaser" and "Contented", and I have to be busy with various copyrights and authorizations, and then there are several groups of endorsements to check my image.
back office……
This is more important.
The main company and Jiang Ma need to discuss Gu Huaian's follow-up route.
From participating in "Crystal Love Season" to now, Gu Huaian is now considered a hot artist. After the show is over, whether he should go to filming, participate in variety shows, perform, or something else, this route needs to be determined.
We also need to confirm some follow-up work arrangements.
The company also needs to seek Gu Huaian's opinion. He now has some say.
In fact, generally artists like him who are good at creating will have some say in their own companies. In this industry, works are king.
Return to the capital overnight.
After taking a rest the next day, Gu Huaian went to record songs.
The three songs "Contentment", "Light Chaser" and "Stubborn" are now very popular. Some netizens said that the quality of Gu Huaian's current music works is really getting higher and higher, and he is making progress...
Indeed, from "A Diao" to "Want to See You" to "Under the Flying Clouds" to "Little Lucky" to "Light Chaser", I feel that his works may rarely be at the level of golden songs, but he is really making progress little by little. .
The process of recording the songs was quite smooth. Speaking of Gu Huaian's singing skills and live performance, he really has nothing to say. Basically, he recorded each song two or three times.
Speaking of this singing skill, Gu Huaian actually increased it to LV5 in the system, and didn't increase it much later. The rest of the timbres were the same...
Gu Huaian was a little curious, what would it look like if this continued to increase?
The sound of nature? !
Having said that, Gu Huaian has really accumulated a lot of system points in the recent period. After the interview on the "Stubborn" program was released that day, he gained a lot of points.
He had more than 20,000 system points before. Didn't he exchange three songs "Contentment", "Light Chaser" and "Stubborn"? The system points required to redeem these three songs are quite large, adding up to 10,000. After changing these three songs, Gu Huaian only had a few thousand system points left...
Later, I made a lot of money, and now I am back to 20,000.
Now if Gu Huaian's singing skills and timbre are to be increased to LV6, he may need... 6000.
It's not that Gu Huaian doesn't want to join, it's mainly because he's a little reluctant.
I heard Jiang Nuan say yesterday that the company wanted to send him an album, and the points might be used to redeem new songs later, so Gu Huaian thought he would keep it for now.
"well……"
Xiao Gu was a little helpless, feeling that the points were sometimes not enough.
This broken system, can't it be upgraded?
What Gu Huaian didn't notice was that there was a sudden reminder in the system message...
In one afternoon, Gu Huaian finished recording three songs, and his assistant was responsible for contacting the platform.
It is said that Gu Huaian's current music copyright fee has increased to over one million. You must know that the copyright fee for his song "A Diao" was only 300,000 at the beginning.
Just over a month has passed and it has already tripled!
So scary!
At the same time...
In the past two days, Gu Huaian’s music copyright fees for his recent songs, the creative fees for writing songs for Shang Zhuoyan and Pei Jingshu, the advertising fees for "Time Singer" including "Crystal Love Season", and some previous advertisements and endorsements The cost...
Almost all of it has been paid to the company one after another.
After deducting the share, it all went to Gu Huaian's hands.
Even after deductions, the amount of money in Gu Huaian's hands was more than five million.
More than five million!
Many people in third- and fourth-tier small cities may not be able to earn it after decades of hard work. Many farmers may not dare to think of this amount in their lives.
Being an artist is really profitable!
At this point, Gu Huaian still didn't do many commercial performances or appeared in variety shows.
If you really do this regularly, your earnings will be even more exaggerated!
Similarly, the company actually takes quite a lot of commission. After all, the contract Gu Huaian signed was a contract for a young artist. This time he returned to the company and had to sign a new contract.
Generally, when an artist becomes popular, he or she will be given a new contract with different benefits.
After recording the song, Gu Huaian followed his assistant Jiang Nuan to the company early the next morning.
Their company is called Guangyao Media. Strictly speaking, it is a small domestic entertainment company, not a very famous one. Jiang Ma only has some shares in it and usually doesn't care much about the company.
But because of Gu Huaian, Mother Jiang is also coming here today...
When he arrived at the company, Gu Huaian walked in and found that many people were greeting him...
The front desk, including some employees, etc., almost everyone who recognized him came over to say hello.
There are also a few friends who were former trainees, including the dance teacher at the time, etc. They are all very enthusiastic.
One after another they shouted "Little Teacher Gu"...
Obviously in the past, everyone played their own games and went their own way. No one was next to anyone. Even if they bumped into each other, they would say hello and pretend not to know each other...
Now, not to mention people you know, even people you don't know would like to come over and become familiar with each other.
Gu Huaian was so flattered...
In the past, Gu Huaian remembered that an actor said that when you are not popular, you can meet all kinds of people, with all kinds of intrigues and intrigues. When you are popular, you will be surrounded by good people, and every one of them will be filled with smiles.
It's just so realistic.
It had only been a month since they had seen each other, and even the director who was in charge of Gu Huaian and his trainee department warmly shook hands and greeted him when he saw him.
Obviously, this director always had a cold face before.
Gu Huaian thought that he was lucky to have experienced that time when no one cared about him. Otherwise, he would have been easily confused just by being surrounded by these smiling faces.
It is worth mentioning that several female artists from the same company who were not familiar with Gu Huaian happened to come to the company, and then they took the initiative to find Gu Huaian and said:
"I heard that you are very familiar with Shang Zhuoyan. Can you help us get some tickets for her tour? Any city will do!"
They are quite excited!
By the way...
Recently, Shang Zhuoyan and her group's tour is about to start, and it is said that tickets are difficult to get. The tickets for the first few tours are almost sold out. For the next few shows, the front row tickets are even sold by scalpers for 20,000 to 30,000 a ticket. so.
Very exaggerated.
Generally, the top concerts of top kings are only as hyped as this, with two front row tickets costing RMB 75,000.
This is not the first time in the past two days that Gu Huaian has been asked if he can ask Shang Zhuoyan for tickets. Someone was also asking yesterday when he was recording the song. Jiang Nuan also had a friend ask her if she could ask Gu Huaian to help.
By the way...
Gu Huaian has not contacted Shang Zhuoyan since the end of "Crystal Love Season". MD himself may not even have tickets to go, let alone ask for others.
However, Gu Huaian has heard in the past two days that many celebrities and Internet celebrities are going to check out Zhuoyan's tour, which is a bit of a hype.
This is also the reason why several female artists from his company came to ask for tickets from an unfamiliar artist from his company, because they also wanted to follow the trend.
Gu Huaian didn't know about this. Anyway, his top priority in the past two days was to rush to "Time Singer" to watch Pei Jingshu's singing competition.
That's it...
Gu Huaian hasn't decided yet whether to tell the company, because he is afraid that they will not let him go.
…
To be honest, I really like the kind of people who write long and negative reviews and criticize them. He wrote a lot, but I backhandedly banned him permanently and deleted it. It was so cool!
