Chapter 243: It seems like it would be nice to record a variety show at home (asking for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets!) As
the night deepened, cheerful laughter could be heard from the longed-for backyard from time to time, with occasional curses. The meal lasted for a full three hours before it was over.
Li Xiaodong and Lu Bingyang got in a taxi back to the hotel. After the car drove quite far away, they could still see Lin Fan from the back seat window, standing under the street light in the courtyard they had longed for, watching them leave.
"Brother Fan seems to have changed a lot since he was in the big factory."
"Yeah, I'm more confident and more integrated into this circle. When I was in the big factory, I always felt that Brother Fan was just a spectator, watching us from afar, as if he was not the same kind of person as us."
Li Xiaodong muttered: "We are not the same kind of people."
We are idols, and Brother Fan is a singer-songwriter.
Lu Bingyang laughed: "That's true!"
However, I really envy Brother Fan. He has the strength and popularity, and he has also realized his dream by opening a homestay. I don’t know when his dream will come true.
…
Lin Fan watched the taxi that Li Xiaodong and Lu Bingyang were riding in disappear completely in the distance, then he turned around and returned to the courtyard he had always longed for. There was nothing he could do, as the two of them had left after eating. After all, they were already exhausted from recording the variety show all day, and they had dinner so late. It was only because Li Xiaodong and Lu Bingyang were still young, otherwise they really couldn't have held on.
I can only clean it up myself.
Just entertaining friends at home late at night was a rare experience for Lin Fan. As soon as Li Xiaodong called, Lin Fan was already thinking about what dishes to cook for them.
Yes, that large table of dishes was cooked by Lin Fan alone. In order to ensure that the food was still hot when Li Xiaodong and the others came over, Lin Fan also calculated the time it would take for the dishes to be out of the pot.
Even with the skill [Cooking Expertise], Lin Fan was busy for nearly two hours before he finished the table of dishes.
But Lin Fan didn't tell Li Xiaodong and the others about all this, just like Li Xiaodong and the others planned to come to see him as soon as they arrived at Huahai Island. Some things don't need to be said in detail, as long as the intention is there.
Li Xiaodong's words also reminded Lin Fan that he should indeed reserve one or two rooms to prepare for entertaining friends.
"Friends, there seem to be more and more of them."
Lin Fan suddenly muttered to himself, "Will my B&B evolve into a very popular variety show like that on Mango TV, hosting all kinds of guests? By the way, this season before the time travel seemed to be a bit of a flop? What a pity, I didn't make it to the finale!"
But think about it, it doesn't seem so bad to be like that! Recording variety shows at home is no different from making money lying down.
Lin Fan felt that if such a variety show really came to him, he would have no reason to refuse.
…
Yang Hongxia is communicating with Wang Ke about the release of the new song that Lin Fan brought out in the second episode of "The Voice of China". In the past, Lin Fan was very willful in releasing songs. He would release them whenever he wanted, and he didn't care whether Tianlai cooperated or not, and he didn't worry about whether his resources would be withheld.
Although Tianlai would not go back on its word and do something as disgusting as Wangsheng did to Lin Fan, it still had to fight for the treatment it deserved.
“After the second episode goes online, the new song will be released at midnight.”
Yang Hongxia made a request, "'Tianlai Star' is a natural publicity channel, but Lin Fan must receive all the treatment he deserves from Tianlai Music."
Wang Ke smiled and said, "Of course! Even if Sister Xia didn't say this, we wouldn't arbitrarily reduce Teacher Lin's treatment. There will be no shortage of homepage rotation ads, channel promotions, official recommendations, new song previews, and smart interactions!"
Yang Hongxia was very satisfied with Wang Ke's attitude, and "The Voice of China" was Tianlai's own variety show. Presumably, the news of Lin Fan's victory over Hui Qiaodan was no longer a secret within Tianlai, so Wang Ke would not secretly make trouble.
The communication with Tianlai Music was very smooth, but the communication with Galaxy Entertainment was not so pleasant.
Yang Hongxia knocked on the door of the general manager's office of Xinghe Entertainment: "Boss Luo, you're looking for me?"
Sitting behind the tea table, Luo Xiao, who was over fifty years old, saw Yang Hongxia and smiled: "Hongxia, you came at the right time. I just made a pot of good tea."
"Then I'll be in for a treat."
Yang Hongxia sat down in front of Luo Xiao, took the teacup he handed over, sniffed it gently, and then slowly took a sip. "The aroma is pure, strong, and steady. It makes my cheeks salivate, and it goes down my throat smoothly. The sweetness lasts for a long time. I really caught up."
Luo Xiao laughed: "If you like it, I'll ask someone to get you some later. There's no more, I don't have much myself."
"Then I would like to thank Mr. Luo first." Yang Hongxia did not refuse.
After three rounds of tea, Luo Xiao finally got to the point: "I heard you signed an artist?"
Yang Hongxia thought, here it comes.
"You mean Lin Fan? It's not an agency contract, just a cooperation agreement to make some extra money."
"Do you think he's good?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Luo Xiao didn't care about Yang Hongxia earning extra money. As long as it didn't harm the interests of the company, Luo Xiao was magnanimous enough.
Yang Hongxia did not hide it, mainly because she had no way to hide it. Lin Fan's talent and strength would eventually be known to the public: "Yes, Lin Fan has great potential. If he can develop well, it won't be a big deal to enter the first-tier market."
This is a very high evaluation. There are so many first-tier artists in the country, and Yang Hongxia actually said that Lin Fan doesn't feel much pressure to enter the first-tier!
"Since you think so highly of him, sign him into the company."
Luo Xiao still trusted Yang Hongxia's vision. "You can discuss the specific contract with him. You can also raise any requirements. Our Xinghe is not a company that cannot accommodate others. Even if he wants to open a personal studio under the company, these can be discussed."
Yang Hongxia also wanted to sign, but when she thought of Lin Fan's stubborn temper, she felt a headache!
"Boss Luo, Lin Fan has a lazy personality. I don't know if you are familiar with the news online. Lin Fan participated in the variety show to pay off his debts. Maybe after paying off his debts, he will not want to come out to work again."
Luo Xiao naturally understood Yang Hongxia's hint. It was not easy to sign Lin Fan's agency contract, unless he followed Lin Fan's wishes, but then the company's interests would not be protected.
If Lin Fan wants to work, he can work. If he doesn't want to work, he can hide. How can the company make a profit? But if they don't go along with Lin Fan, the agency contract can't be signed at all.
But Luo Xiao didn't care: "Since you were able to sign a cooperation agreement with him, you should know what he wants better than anyone else. We may not be able to sign, but we can't let other companies sign. Do you understand what I mean?"
Yang Hongxia naturally understood, but: "Boss Luo, let me tell you the truth, Lin Fan's potential may be greater than you think! I don't recommend rashly offending him for the sake of immediate interests."
"If you think highly of him, then you should understand how much loss it would cause us if Lin Fan was signed by our opponent."
Luo Xiao looked at Yang Hongxia calmly, "I don't want to make an enemy rashly. After all, no one knows how far he will go in the end, so this depends on you."
Yang Hongxia: ...Old fox! You got me into this trap! (End of this chapter)
