Chapter 032 Come back for a blind date



Life always carries a little bit of uncertainty.

Lu Yuan originally thought that after recording the song, he would have a quick meal and then return to the crew to continue filming. There would not be any other problems in the meantime, but he did not expect that something unexpected would appear in the middle.

And he seems to be a chatterbox.

"My name is Tang Chong, you can call me Brother T, I have been following you for a long time!"

“…”

"You must have heard of our company, Joaquin. We are one of the largest entertainment companies in China. We have countless first-line stars under our umbrella. We are also actively exploring overseas channels and supporting folk singers. You can't go wrong by choosing us!"

“…”

"As for the treatment, you don't have to hesitate at all. As long as you agree and sign the contract, I can get you the resources and treatment of a second-tier singer, no, a quasi-first-tier singer, so that you can appear on the big screen and become famous in one fell swoop!"

“…”

"Don't you believe it? If you don't believe me, I'll call you right now!"

“…”

“Beep, beep, beep.”

"Hey, uncle? I want to sign a singer!"

"What? He's not some random singer. He's the creator of "Old Boy" and "To Alice". That's right! Uncle, go apply to the company. I want to apply for an S-level contract!"

"Where is the singer? The singer is right in front of me!"

"No, I want to sign him. I must sign him this time! I must sign him!"

“Yes, the best resource!”

“…”

"You heard it now, right? You can rest assured. This is my business card. I have signed many talented young singers such as Xu Huishan, Chen Jiayu, and Xu Guanfeng! You know these people, right? They are very popular in the circle now. There are too many resource announcements. They will definitely have a share in the future entertainment market!"

“…”

"By the way, I think after you sign with us, I can help you debut on a variety show..."

“…”

Before Lu Yuan could figure out what was going on, the young man started spitting all over him, making him look burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, leaving him completely confused.

When he subconsciously turned his head to look at Zhang Tong, he saw that Zhang Tong had a gloomy face. When he looked at old man Chen Guanxiong again, he saw the old man shaking his head speechlessly.

It seems quite amusing.

"Actually, I'm not a real singer... I'm a director." Lu Yuan finally coughed lightly, looked at the young man, and politely refused.

"I know that Lu Yuan is a talented man. He can do anything. Don't make these small-investment movies now. These movies have no future. Come with me. I promise to bring you out. With your voice and your creative talent, I guarantee that within a year, you will be the number one new star of my Joaquin Phoenix... After that, any movie you want to make will be easy for you. Big investments will be looking for you." Tang Chong was still spitting, and he was extremely excited.

"I'm sorry for letting you down. I'm just a director... I only sing this song better... I can't sing the others well!"

"Don't worry! We can train you!"

"Ahem, ahem, well, Director Zhang has been standing there for quite a while. It's not appropriate for you to behave like this, right?" Lu Yuan took a deep breath and looked at the man's determined and defiant look. He was finally speechless.

"Ah... Oh, yes, yes! I forgot, um, Uncle Zhang, you..." After hearing Lu Yuan's words, the young man's face changed slightly, and then he subconsciously glanced at Zhang Tong who was walking towards him.

"How come you still know I'm here! Do you know what your identity is now and what my identity is?" Zhang Tong looked at Tang Chong with a gloomy face and his voice was full of scolding.

"ah……"

"I'm filming with Tianyu right now, and Tianyu's agent didn't let me come! It's not very decent of me to bring you, a staff member of Huajin, here. I'm sorry to all the colleagues of Tianyu! What did you promise me before you came? Just to see! What's going on now? Are you going to snatch someone away in front of me? Are you going to slap me in the face? What if the top management of Tianyu finds out about this? Where will my face be?"

"This... Uncle, I'm sorry, that's not what I meant, I was just excited..."

"Go out." Zhang Tong waved his hand, looking like he didn't want to say anything more.

"Uncle, this... I think..."

"Get out!" Zhang Tong was a little angry.

"Yes, yes, yes! Well, the number is on the business card. I'll be waiting for you outside! Be sure to look for me when you come out!" Tang Chong looked at Lu Yuan again with embarrassment and left the recording studio dejectedly under Zhang Tong's gloomy expression.

“……” Lu Yuan let out a long breath and felt a little dizzy.

"My friend's kid, Xiao Lu, don't mind him. He has been a bad boy since he was young...don't take it to heart..." Zhang Tong stared at Tang Chong as he left and closed the door, wishing he could kick Tang Chong to the ground.

This guy is such a jerk that he can't even tell the importance of things.

"Director Zhang, it's okay." Lu Yuan shook his head. He wasn't too upset. He just thought that this guy was a little weird.

"Oh, that's good. Now let's talk about the contract for the use of the song "Old Boy". This is the contract I drafted. What do you think?"

"Well, let me see."

Lu Yuan took a quick look at the contract. It wasn't a big deal. It was just a simple usage rights contract with a song usage fee of 100,000 yuan.

One hundred thousand is a huge price for Lu Yuan. Many people may not be able to save one hundred thousand even if they work very hard for two or three years. And it is only the right to use the software. Other cover rights and many copyrights are not included.

This price is actually very good.

Lu Yuan was very satisfied.

The entertainment industry is very expensive and money is often spent without any consideration. At least Zhang Tong thinks this song is worth the price.

Another point was introduced by old man Chen Guanxiong.

It can be seen that the old man admires this young man very much.

Zhang Tong is very optimistic about Lu Yuan's future.

Judging from the value of this song and "To Alice", Lu Yuan's song will not be worth this price in a few years.

Spend some money to build a relationship now, you never know when you’ll need it for your next movie.

This is a kind of cooperation that makes both parties happy.

After the contract was signed and the money was transferred to Lu Yuan's card, the transaction was completed.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Zhang Tong took Mr. Chen Guanxiong, Lu Yuan, and the excited Tang Chong to the high-end restaurant on the third floor of the building to have dinner.

"Xiao Lu, give me some. French red wine, from 1985. It tastes great."

"I can't come, I can't drink."

"Why are you pretending? You who played the guitar in the video were drinking, and you still say you can't drink. Come on, give your grandpa Chen some face... drink something." Chen Guanxiong frowned slightly and acted like an elder.

"Okay, just a little." Lu Yuan looked at the glass filled with red wine and suddenly felt a headache.

"Well, that's more like it. Xiao Zhang, you should drink something too. I helped you solve such a big problem and also let you meet Xiao Lu. You should thank me!"

"Yes, yes, we really need to thank you, old man. Come on, old man, I'll toast you. Xiao Lu, I'll toast you too!"

"good……"

"Another drink..."

"Ah, I can't drink any more."

"How can a man do this? I see you smoke quite a lot."

"Then have some..." Lu Yuan was a man who cared a lot about his reputation, and he was in a good mood, so he drank without hesitation.

"Well, old man, I want to toast you too. And Ayuan, I have already prepared an S-level contract. How about signing it today while everyone is so happy? Our Joaquin is really good!"

"Why sign? Tang Chong, go away and drink your wine. Why are you ruining the fun? Are you a fool?" Zhang Tong looked at Tang Chong who was walking towards him with a smile on his face, and cursed him in disappointment.

"Okay, eat first, eat first..." Tang Chong was scolded by Zhang Tongyi, and immediately continued to smile awkwardly.

"It's useless for me to sign. I tell you the truth, I really can't sing... and I don't have much creative talent... I may run out of ideas at any time." Lu Yuan looked at Tang Chong with drunken eyes and he laid his cards on the table.

"I understand. Don't worry. We will train you. We have a very good training team. And with a voice like yours and..."

“Bang!”

"roll"

Tang Chong was about to talk about Huajin Company again, but he was startled when he heard Zhang Tongmeng staring at him with a very unfriendly expression at a table.

Afterwards, he had no choice but to sit aside with the contract in his arms, smiling awkwardly, like a young wife, suppressing his expression and continuing to drink. Somehow, he felt more and more depressed the more he drank.

"Come on, let's continue drinking."

"Uh... I feel a little dizzy and can't drink anymore."

"One more drink, one last one."

"Okay, um, wait, I'll take a call..."

"good."

Lu Yuan staggered to his feet and touched his phone, only to see a familiar number calling him.

"Hello……"

"Ayuan, are you working?"

"Ah, Mom?"

"You still have me as your mother in your eyes! Get back here!"

"Ah, what's wrong?"

"Your uncle Chen from next door has introduced you to a marriage. The girl's family is well-off and the requirements are quite high, but she is pretty. You should get yourself ready and come back for a blind date! Stop fooling around all day! Your uncle Chen has asked many people for help in this marriage!"

"Ah? Blind date?" Lu Yuan shook his head and the image of his mother appeared in his mind.

The mother of this world...

A few minutes later, Lu Yuan sat back in his seat with a slightly strange look on his face.

"Girlfriend's?"

"No, my mom's urging blind date dialogue."

"Your family is asking you to go on a blind date? Xiao Lu, you don't have a partner yet?" The old man's eyes lit up when he heard Lu Yuan's words.

"Um... I didn't..."

"good!"

“Bang!”

The old man suddenly slammed the table again.

"Ah?" Tang Chong, who was drinking, was suddenly slapped and sprayed a mouthful of wine on the ground. He thought he had angered Zhang Tong again. He subconsciously looked at Zhang Tong, but saw that Zhang Tong was staring at the old man in the same strange way.

Lu Yuan was also confused.

What's the matter?

"I have a granddaughter, she's right next to me, I can introduce her to you!" The old man knew that his reaction was a bit too much, so he covered it up awkwardly.

“…”
