Chapter 138 TV Series Singer Invitation: Killing Two Birds with One Stone
"What song invitation?"
In the big villa, Su Yang was cooking when he suddenly received a call.
It was a call from Yanjing TV Station, but the purpose surprised Su Yang.
Someone invited me to compose a song, and this person was an acquaintance of mine.
It was none other than Kang Bin, the director of Qin Shuyao's first TV series.
Now that the TV series has been completed, Kang Bin is not very satisfied with the theme song of the TV series. He has changed several of them but is still not satisfied with them.
This TV series has now been bought by Yanjing TV Station and will be broadcast on Yanjing TV Station soon. Kang Bin also watched the Masked Singer, and after seeing the original talent of the Big Devil, he suddenly had the idea to give it a try.
If the Big Devil can write a good song, then this TV series can not only ride on the popularity of The Masked Singer, but also ride on the popularity of the Big Devil, which is really killing two birds with one stone.
Yanjing Television, knowing the Great Devil's true identity, thought this was a very suitable matter. However, Kang Bin did not know the Great Devil's identity or his contact information, so he asked Yanjing Television to contact and negotiate on his behalf.
"What price"
Su Yang thought for a while and asked.
"One million, before tax, just for the right to use it."
After hearing the price, Su Yangyanjing's eyes lit up. This price is not bad, just the right to use it is priced at 1 million, which is a very conscientious price.
But Su Yang soon understood why Kang Bin and the others were willing to offer this price. They were definitely trying to capitalize on his popularity. While the 1 million yuan seemed like just the right to use a song, it was actually a disguised form of advertising. This 1 million yuan spent would definitely be much more effective than spending 1 million yuan on advertising.
"Let me try. Send me the information and I'll get back to you in a couple of days."
Su Yang agreed. He didn't want to refuse free money. Besides, if this TV series became popular, it would also benefit his wife. After all, Qin Shuyao had a lot of scenes in this drama. If his song was used, it would be a surprise for Qin Shuyao. In this TV series, both husband and wife participated.
Moreover, after establishing a good relationship with Kang Bin, he will give priority to his wife when there is a suitable role in the future. He can also be said to be accumulating connections for his wife. It is a win-win situation, killing two birds with one stone. How great!
Su Yang has never been able to resist money, especially money earned legally.
At this moment, Su Yang was very impressed. It was really too easy to make money in the entertainment industry. No wonder so many people were desperate to become celebrities. They made money so quickly. Just the right to use a song could earn 1 million. They simply didn't regard money as money.
At this moment, Su Yang really felt that Wang Yunze and the others should go to the ancestral grave to burn incense when they met him. If he wore women's clothes, he might become a big star. Isn't this just smoke rising from the ancestral grave?
Thinking about how hard he had worked to make money in the past, and then looking at the present, Su Yang wanted to curse this damn society. But cursing was useless, the world was just like this, there were people who rode in the sedan chair, and there were people who carried it.
Soon, Su Yang received the information, which was a brief summary of the story. After all, the theme song had to be consistent with the story.
After reading the story summary, Su Yang thought of a song.
"No need to have a fear of choosing songs for the next show."
Su Yang couldn't help but think that he didn't have to worry about the next episode, this song was the right one, it fit the occasion.
"Hey, Mom..."
At noon, Su Yang suddenly received a call from Zhang's mother.
"Yangyang, are you free this afternoon? Your brother Xiaohu and your sister-in-law Liu Jing will arrive in Yanjing this afternoon. They are going to see your sister-in-law for medical treatment. If you have time, please pick them up. They are unfamiliar with the place..."
Su Yang was stunned by what Zhang's mother said.
Su Hu, according to seniority, Su Yang should call him brother, but Su Hu is a few years older than Su Yang, got married earlier, and has two children.
"What happened to my sister-in-law?"
Su Yang asked directly.
"I don't know what happened, but my whole body was rotten. Your brother Xiaohu was afraid of delaying the treatment, so he went straight to Yanjing."
Zhang's mother's words made Su Yang frown. After asking for Su Hu's phone number, Su Yang hung up Zhang's mother's call and called Su Hu.
After asking about the situation, Su Yang hung up the phone and quickly called Tang Qing.
"Hey, Sister Qing, do you know anyone in a good hospital in Yanjing? My cousin's wife is suffering from sores all over her body..."
Su Yang briefly explained the matter to Tang Qing. Su Yang didn't have many connections in Yanjing, but Tang Qing had a wider network of contacts and might know some people.
Making an appointment at these good hospitals in Yanjing is a hassle.
China is, in fact, a society where favors are the norm. Although sometimes people dislike such things, many people still subconsciously use their connections to get things done through the back door when they encounter problems.
"Wait a moment..."
After listening to what Su Yang said, Tang Qing hung up the phone directly.
In less than ten minutes, Tang Qing's phone rang.
"I've already made an appointment for you. It's at the Dermatology Department of Union Hospital, for the afternoon appointment. You can just take the patient there. The doctor is my cousin, Ye Ziying. I've already told her. I'll send you her phone number. If you can't find her, just call her."
After Tang Qing finished speaking, she directly sent a phone number.
Su Yang couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the phone number. It really was easy to get things done when someone in the government had a connection. If Su Hu had come alone, even just to register at Union Hospital, it would have taken him a day or two to get an appointment. As for when he could see a doctor, that was even harder to say.
After checking the time, Su Yang packed up simply and drove out.
"Brother Xiaohu, here..."
At around three o'clock, Su Yang picked up Su Hu and his wife at the high-speed rail station.
Su Hu's wife Liu Jing was wrapped up tightly at the moment, wearing long sleeves, a mask and sunglasses. She was dressed even more tightly than Qin Shuyao when she went out.
“Yangyang…”
Seeing Su Yang, Su Hu and his wife hurried over, with gratitude on Su Hu's face.
"Let's go straight to the hospital. I've already made arrangements there..."
Su Yang said directly and glanced at Liu Jing. Although Liu Jing was covered very tightly, some parts of her face that were exposed still looked scary.
After getting in the car, Su Yang drove directly to Union Hospital.
Because everything had been arranged in advance, things went smoothly.
Liu Jing didn't have to wait too long before she saw a doctor.
The doctor took a quick look and immediately arranged a series of examinations for Liu Jing.
"This is severe mercury poisoning..."
When the test results came out, the doctor's answer made Su Hu and Liu Jing open their eyes wide.
"Doctor Ye, what caused this disease?"
Su Hu couldn't help but ask.
"Such serious mercury poisoning is mostly caused by excessive contact between the skin and mercury. What kind of job is this?"
Ye Ziying asked directly.
"I don't really work, I just stay at home and take care of the kids."
Su Hu's words stunned Ye Ziying.
"What kind of cosmetics do you usually use?"
Ye Ziying continued to ask.
"Shenxian Secret is the brand of the famous star Lin Qianqian. I'm her agent, so I use it myself..."
Liu Jing whispered. Hearing Liu Jing's words, Ye Ziying immediately understood what was going on.
"Eighty percent of the time, this is because the mercury content in cosmetics exceeds the standard, and you use them frequently. You're not the first patient to experience this. We've treated many patients like you in recent years. Don't use just any brand of cosmetics in the future. Some brands are very famous, but many indicators fail to meet the standards, especially those from internet celebrities and WeChat merchants..."
Ye Ziying said directly, and directly arranged for Liu Jing to be admitted to the hospital. Such severe mercury poisoning requires hospitalization.
"Don't use that makeup again. Luckily you came in time. If you had delayed any longer, it would have caused kidney damage. You wouldn't have had time to cry then."
After completing the formalities, Ye Ziying gave instructions again.
"Thank you, doctor, thank you..."
Su Hu said quickly.
"Okay, go pay the fees and go through the formalities."
Ye Ziying waved her hand. She was Tang Qing's cousin, a top student at the medical university, majoring in dermatology, and three years older than Tang Qing.
"Sister Ying, thank you so much this time."
After Su Hu and the other two left, Su Yang said with a smile.
"You're welcome. Shuyao and I are good friends. I even attended your wedding."
Ye Ziying couldn't help but laugh. She had a deep memory of Su Yang and Qin Shuyao's funny wedding.
"Really? Maybe I was too busy at the time and didn't pay much attention. If it were any other time, I would definitely remember such a beautiful girl like Sister Ying."
Su Yang said with a hint of embarrassment. "Looking back at that wedding now, it was truly embarrassing. Why did I just recite a poem in such a rush?"
"Haha, no wonder Shuyao insisted on marrying you. You have such a sweet mouth. Don't worry, your relative's problem isn't serious. He came just in time, and he'll be almost fully recovered after a period of treatment. However, there may be some permanent damage to the skin, but there's nothing we can do about it."
Ye Ziying whispered and Su Yang nodded.
Ye Ziying initially disliked Su Yang, but his recent performance changed her opinion of him. Especially his domineering way of protecting his wife and exposing the ugly face of foreign brands, made Ye Ziying think that Su Yang was particularly heroic.
A man should be like this: protect his wife and love his country. As long as he can do these two things, no matter what else happens, Ye Ziying thinks this man is good.
"That's good, Sister Ying, are there many patients like my sister-in-law?"
Su Yang asked curiously.
"There have been quite a few cases in recent years, mostly caused by low-quality cosmetics. Many of those so-called internet celebrity brands and WeChat business brands are private label products. They're advertised as high-end, but in reality, they're full of inferior ingredients. Excessive mercury levels are very common. These products may seem very effective when you first use them, but in reality, it's all due to excessive amounts of chemical additives. Over time, too much of these substances accumulate in the body, causing a series of symptoms..."
Ye Ziying was no stranger to this. The dermatology department at Union Hospital had admitted many patients over the years, many with conditions more serious than Liu Jing's. Most cases of this condition were caused by using inferior cosmetics.
After hearing what Ye Ziying said, Su Yang nodded and seemed a little silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Sister Ying, please go ahead and do your work. I won't bother you anymore. I'll treat you to dinner another day..."
After saying this, Su Yang said goodbye to Ye Ziying and went to Su Hu and the others' ward.
"I told you a long time ago not to do WeChat business. You refused to listen, and now you're doing it. Not only did you not make any money, but you also made yourself sick. That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is the products you sold. If there really are problems, I wonder what you'll do. They're all relatives and friends."
As soon as I arrived at the ward door, I heard Su Hu complaining in the ward.
"How would I know there was a problem? I was just trying to make some money. Who knew there was something wrong with this product? With so many celebrities promoting it, I thought it was great..."
Liu Jing felt very aggrieved.
"Why……"
Su Hu sighed. His family wasn't well off to begin with, and he didn't know how much Liu Jing's medical treatment would cost. But that wasn't Su Hu's biggest worry. He was most worried about the products Liu Jing had sold and the inventory at home.
These products were all sold to my own people, relatives and friends. If they also encountered this situation, it would be a big deal. If those people came to my house and made trouble, they would force me to death.
Su Yang walked into the ward, and Su Hu stood up after seeing Su Yang.
"Brother Xiaohu, let's not talk about anything else for now. First, cure my sister-in-law's illness, and then we can deal with the rest later. The treatment is the most important thing. As for the money, don't worry. If you really need money, just call me. Sister-in-law, just focus on your treatment here and don't worry about other things for now. By the way, you'd better call whoever you sold the product to and tell them to stop using it immediately. Otherwise, if they really end up like you, the situation will be serious. By the way, have my uncle send me a set of all the products you sold. I'll find a specialized agency to test them to see if it's a cosmetic problem. If it is, we'll find a solution later..."
Su Yang sighed and said in a low voice.
Su Yang couldn't just ignore this matter. After all, they were from the same village.
But how to manage it needs to be done step by step. Su Yang is not a savior, nor will he pay for their own mistakes. All Su Yang can do is try his best to help Liu Jing recover from her illness first.
"Okay, I'll call back..."
Su Hu nodded.
"Okay, then you can just rest assured and get treatment here. Call me if anything happens."
Su Yang and Su Hu chatted for a few more words and then left. He wasn't his biological brother, so it was good enough that he had done so much.
After driving back home, Su Yang turned on his computer and started looking up some information.
Especially the cosmetics brand that Liu Jing mentioned, Shenxian Secret, Su Yang had heard of it before. However, he hadn't paid much attention to it, but it seemed to be quite popular.
Su Yang's search for information is different from that of ordinary people. He often searches deeper and digs deeper. At the same time, he also filters out which information is true and which is false.
The room was very quiet. As more and more information was dug out, Su Yang's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
The waters are too deep. This isn't a WeChat business, it's a massive pyramid scheme. They're just using the name of WeChat business. They're leveraging the celebrity effect and using the internet to unscrupulously make money.
Just like pyramid schemes, the ones who make money are the upper-level organizations, and the victims are the most vulnerable people at the bottom, the so-called agents.
Shocking, looking at these data, Su Yang suddenly felt that he was a fucking kind-hearted baby. What were the bad things he did? Compared with these people, he was too kind.
These people are making money with a guilty conscience, taking advantage of others' misfortunes, and even the most evil-minded can produce evil. Behind their wealth are broken families and victims with no recourse.
Looking at these materials, Su Yang's eyes gradually turned cold.
