People should always stick to their dreams.
That's right.
Especially after listening to Lu Yuan's "Stubborn", Wang Hao felt that Lu Yuan was a person who respected dreams.
When no one supported him, Wang Hao felt that Lu Yuan would support him.
after all……
This song "Stubborn" was written by Lu Yuan, and Wang Hao felt that it was an encouragement.
Just like in the original "Salted Fish" and "Old Boy", Wang Hao feels that he really deserves the respect he deserves.
When they were in the United States, parents paid close attention to their children's dreams and would not restrict them. But after they came to China, everything changed.
Wang Hao is not the kind of person who is irresponsible. He knows that he does have to shoulder this responsibility.
If he was an only child, he would definitely suppress that dream in his heart, but he has an older sister!
My sister Wang Jinxue has had extraordinary management talent since she was a child. When my parents accompanied me to the United States, my sister was in charge of all the big and small matters in the company, and she managed every aspect in an orderly manner.
That's totally fine, right?
This society is no longer a feudal society. No one has stipulated that family property or companies must be inherited by men, right?
My sister can also...
You said your sister is getting married?
Is there a conflict between getting married and managing a company?
There is absolutely no good.
Therefore, because of this idea, he feels more and more that he can pursue his rock dream.
Although he thought so, Wang Jinxue never thought so.
Although Wang Jinxue has outstanding management skills, she has no interest in Wang Yaohua's company at all.
In her heart, her younger brother will have to shoulder the responsibility sooner or later, so he must grow up as soon as possible.
She didn't object to Wang Hao playing rock music, but he couldn't devote his whole life to rock music, right?
As for Wang Yaohua, he had originally placed high hopes on his son, needless to say. When he heard such stupid things as his son playing rock music, he immediately became furious.
He was even more excited when he heard that his son had formed a rock band in the United States!
All these years of sending my son to the United States to study management knowledge has been in vain?
Who did my son learn this rebellious idea from?
In the evening of June 20th.
It was supposed to be a peaceful day.
However, for Wang Hao, it was the moment that declared his fate.
Lu Yuan did not explicitly agree to him, but Lu Yuan hinted that he would speak up for Wang Hao.
After understanding the hint, Wang Hao felt a little calmer.
Lu Yuan is a very important person.
If he was really willing to speak for me, then I would still have a chance of survival. At least I wouldn't be captured by my father and his bodyguards and taken back to Beijing...
However, this is definitely a very difficult thing to do.
…
"Meet You" Cafe.
Lu Yuan and his group sat in the VIP room, and the atmosphere was a little solemn.
After Wang Yaohua looked at Lu Yuan who was sitting with Wang Hao, he was smart enough to know that this was the reinforcement Wang Hao had called for.
This bastard is quite smart. He knows that I will give him face since Lu Yuan is here.
"Xiao Lu, we haven't seen each other for a while, right?"
"Yes, Uncle Wang..."
Wang Yaohua broke the silence.
After breaking the silence, Lu Yuan subconsciously responded to Wang Yaohua, but halfway through his response, Wang Jinxue stepped on Lu Yuan's foot under the table, and Lu Yuan finally chose to change his words.
"Didn't you always call me Brother Wang before? Why did you suddenly change your words?" Wang Yaohua looked at Lu Yuan with interest and smiled as if he knew nothing.
"I just feel it's inappropriate... calling me Brother Wang... I always feel it's not very polite... hehe." Lu Yuan showed his familiar silly smile.
"I think it's fine and polite, no problem...right, Wang Hao? By the way, did you call me uncle?" Wang Yaohua looked at Wang Hao, narrowed his eyes slightly, then took out a cigarette and prepared to light it, but when he remembered that this was a coffee shop, he shook his head.
“……”Wang Hao lowered his head.
The mood is messy.
He felt that this generation was a bit confusing...
His own father immediately defeated him...
He really had no idea what to do.
Wang Jinxue shook her head slightly.
She felt that this was just a negotiation, and judging from the momentum of the negotiation, Lu Yuan and his team had already lost.
Lu Yuan felt really fucked up.
If I let this kid call me uncle, wouldn't that make me a generation older for no reason?
There is only two years difference between me and this kid.
"Uncle Wang... okay... stop teasing me... I did feel that my way of addressing him was inappropriate before... now I have corrected it..." To be honest, Lu Yuan really didn't want to get involved in the Wang family's affairs.
Even a judge cannot settle family affairs, as these things are complicated and hard to sort out.
But who can blame Wang Hao for being such a nice guy? Since he had promised to help him speak a little, he couldn't refuse, right?
"Haha, Xiao Lu, I heard that you really quit smoking? How can someone as heavy a smoker as you be able to quit smoking?"
"No... I haven't quit completely, I just smoke less..."
"Oh, okay, then let's go out and smoke together later. This is the classic version of 'Red Orchid', which is rarely seen on the market."
"Uh..." When Lu Yuan saw Wang Yaohua take out a package of glittering gold, his throat moved slightly.
He had indeed never smoked such a "Red Orchid".
"This kind of cigarette is very strong, but not addictive. Just imagine the feeling of inhaling it into your lungs and then exhaling it... At the same time, this cigarette has another characteristic, which is..." Wang Yaohua smiled and talked endlessly about the various flavors of cigarettes to Lu Yuan.
It was obvious that he came prepared this time.
"Uncle, smoking is harmful to your health..."
Lu Yuan found that his desire for tobacco had been attracted again, but after hesitating for a long time, he finally shook his head.
Wang Hao pushed his arm when no one was paying attention, which made Lu Yuan feel very embarrassed.
Lu Yuan found himself in a really speechless situation.
At least he wouldn't defect to the enemy just for a pack of cigarettes, right?
"Grandpa Jinxue smokes and drinks every day. He is 97 years old now, but still in good health... Take it, it's okay to smoke a handful to taste it." Wang Yaohua shook his head and brought out the seemingly OK excuse of an old smoker, and handed the cigarette to Lu Yuan.
"Ahem, ahem, it's just an example, uncle, I really quit, I really quit... ahem... but since this pack of cigarettes is so precious, I'll take it first without hesitation..." Lu Yuan shook his head with a firm expression, but he couldn't control his hands and took the pack of cigarettes.
It would be a waste if you don't have this thing, right?
When Wang Hao saw this scene, his heart sank.
This ginger is still old and spicy...
His father bribed Lu Yuan without making a single move.
Own……
Is it almost cold?
"Wang Hao, actually Dad is not the kind of person who is against you... It's just that rock and roll is really not something you can play... Now is not the era of rock and roll anymore..."
"Dad, I still say the same thing, I ask you to give me a chance, don't you have a dream? I don't believe you haven't had a dream since childhood. I don't want to be like what is written in the song "Old Boy", regretting it after my youth is gone... Besides, there is never a saying of era. The key is to look at people. Many eras that everyone thinks do not exist will have great figures appear!" Wang Hao stared at Wang Yaohua like a lone warrior.
"Do you think you can become a rock star now?"
"I don't think so, but I don't think I'm bad! I can do it. This is something that is integrated into my blood!" Wang Hao took a deep breath, as if he was taking an oath.
"But your American band has disbanded? Have you achieved any success?"
"I..." When talking about the band, Wang Hao's eyes dimmed slightly.
"People need to know who they are and how much they are worth. Do you understand? I don't want to say more. Just come back with me." Wang Yaohua's voice was undeniable, and at the same time, his momentum was very strong.
After all, he is a man who has been involved in the business world for a long time. What has he not seen?
Wang Hao was overwhelmed by Wang Yaohua's momentum and suddenly felt a little panicked. If it were in the past, he would definitely surrender.
But now…
"I'm not going! I'm not going back!"
"Can you say that again?"
"I... I won't go!" Wang Hao lowered his head at first, but then he mustered up the courage to look up at Wang Yaohua who was frowning.
"Bang!"
Wang Yaohua patted the table, and the coffee on the table flipped over slightly.
silence.
Wang Jinxue looked at Lu Yuan silently.
Lu Yuan looked at Wang Yaohua.
Wang Hao was so scared that he lowered his head again, with a trace of sweat on his face.
"I... I won't go... I will prove that I can do it!" Wang Hao gritted his teeth.
He was indeed afraid of his father.
but.
He still shook his head firmly.
Wang Yaohua didn't say anything, just looked at Wang Hao.
Wang Hao looked up again and looked into Wang Yaohua's eyes.
Although Wang Hao felt guilty, he was still determined not to miss the look...
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Lu Yuan knew that this would not work. There were two or three burly bodyguards standing behind the coffee shop box. If nothing unexpected happened, Lu Yuan felt that Wang Yaohua might come over and take the person away directly.
and……
Neither of them gave way to the other, and both seemed to be waiting for a way down.
"I think things don't have to be so awkward. There is a way to have the best of both worlds..." Lu Yuan hesitated again and again and then looked at the two of them.
"What?" Wang Yaohua looked at Lu Yuan.
Wang Hao also looked at Lu Yuan.
Wang Jinxue also looked at Lu Yuan silently.
"Uncle, please set a requirement for him. Dreams... really penetrate into the soul. You can't lock it up or force it... It's an obsession."
"What request?" Wang Yaohua looked at Lu Yuan.
His aura dissipated a little, and his expression softened a little.
After all, he has always been very optimistic about the young man Lu Yuan.
"Give Wang Hao one year. If he fails to meet your requirements within one year, then make him listen to you... What do you think?"
"One year...Okay! Since Xiao Lu said so, I will give you one year."
"One year, okay! I will prove myself!"
"You have to become the King of Rock in one year. If not, you better come back."
"no problem!"
"Well, Jinxue...please help me prepare a contract...I will sign the contract with this bastard and put my fingerprints on it tomorrow."
"Dad, I've got the contract ready."
"What? You ready?"
"The only result of you and him not giving in to each other is that both sides give in a little and compromise a little. You can't lock him up. This time he crawled through a dog hole, but next time he might dig a tunnel himself..." Wang Jinxue silently took out the commitment contract from her bag.
When Wang Yaohua saw Wang Jinxue take out the contract, he was extremely surprised.
My daughter has inherited everything from me.
Lu Yuan was also a little confused.
It seems that Wang Jinxue had already thought of this result?
And I'm just going with the flow?
Wang Hao was grateful.
He didn't expect that his sister would suddenly speak for him.
"Lu Yuan, is it okay for him to stay in our company?"
"I'm fine..."
"Well, okay, Wang Hao, this is your artist contract... All the profits you generate in the company belong to the company. Within one year, you will not have any income, but the company will provide you with a minimum living allowance. After one year, your performance will be judged. If your performance is not good, you will automatically resign. If you pass the test, then you will be treated according to the general artist standards... Of course, the company will help you find some channels to promote and package you... You don't have to worry about these..."
“Sister, you…you…thank you…!” Wang Hao was surprised.
He never expected that there would be such a sudden turn of events.
“…”
Wang Yaohua took one look at Wang Jinxue and felt something was wrong.
Why does he feel like his own daughter has completely become someone else's?
This kid Lu Yuan has taken away all the cabbages from my family...
Are you talking about Lu Yuan?
Needless to say, Lu Yuan...
I'm so happy!
He is happy.
