Chapter 35 Signing
At a university in Haizhou, Li Mu, a heavy TikTok user, lay dejectedly on her bed, scrolling through the app. Although it was National Day, she was too lazy to go home or go out, instead continuing to laze around in her dorm room with another roommate.
The four years in college were wasted for her. She didn't study well, didn't have a relationship, and didn't even have fun.
Ever since I last saw Jiang Ningyue’s cross-dressing video, Douyin is now full of cross-dressing videos.
Unfortunately, neither man nor woman has the beauty of Jiang Ningyue, not even as good-looking as Jiang Ningyue’s best friend.
Jiang Ningyue hasn't posted any videos since she posted the last one. Now this video has 6 million likes, and Li Mu has no idea how many times he has watched it.
In addition to following Jiang Ningyue, she also followed Jiang Ningyue's best friend Gu Meng.
It’s a pity that Gu Meng also didn’t update the video.
When Li Mu clicked on Gu Meng's homepage again, he suddenly found that she had an extra video, and this video was posted 1 minute ago.
When I clicked on the video, I found that the scene was very dim, with only the neon lights in the distance outside the window flashing.
Gu Meng's figure was not clear under the distant lights and moonlight, but it was so beautiful that it seemed unreal.
A melodious background music sounded on the side, and at this time a line of subtitles appeared in the lower left corner of the video - "Echoes of Twilight"
"What is this? A song?" Li Mu asked in confusion, raising his voice a little.
In the video, Gu Meng tilted her head and looked at the camera.
"Legend has it that there is a star in the vast galaxy that is him, who chose to stay even after leaving time."
"Qi Zhouzhong is incredibly gentle, quietly guarding his regrets."
…
Li Mu blinked and said, "Not bad."
My roommate yawned and commented, "It's just okay."
The video continued to play, and at this time a line of words flashed across the barrage - [Start chanting].
"Perhaps you've also heard him speak in a low or hoarse voice, as he expressed his concerns."
"He may be in your last place, by your side, in your nightmare. If you see him, please don't be afraid!"
“Oh my God!”
"Can you please let me feel it for a moment? We're both worried about each other!"
…
My roommate, who was originally speaking normally, put down his phone and touched his arm. "Wow, these two sentences gave me goosebumps."
Li Mu laughed and teased, "Don't you think it's normal?"
"Hahahaha, I was just talking nonsense."
My roommate asked, “What’s the name of this song?”
"Echoes of Twilight."
“Is it in Cloud Music?”
“That’s unethical!”

In addition to Douyin, Gu Meng has uploaded videos to platforms such as Bilibili and QQ Music. After uploading, Gu Meng saw several platforms switching and constantly checking the background data.
Jiang Ningyue smiled helplessly, "I'm going to take a shower."
"Um."
Gu Meng was not in the mood to care about Jiang Ningyue at this moment. Her mind was all on these data.
After taking a shower, Jiang Ningyue twisted her hair. Speaking of which, it was really troublesome to have such long hair every day! If she didn't like long hair, she really wanted to shave it off!
After putting on her nightgown and wrapping a towel around her head, Jiang Ningyue did not leave in a hurry. Instead, she started browsing the system mall.
"System, do you have any tips for drying hair quickly?"
After a few seconds of silence, a page popped up.
[Hollow negative ion quick-drying hair dryer 50 points]
【This product will be delivered by express delivery. 】
Jiang Ningyue blinked her eyes. This system is even selling hair dryers?
Why does it feel like the other party just threw a link to me?
But, it’s only 50 points, so just buy it.
Jiang Ningyue walked into the living room and found that Gu Meng was on the phone. After hanging up, Jiang Ningyue asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay. My agent just called me." Gu Meng smiled and said, "He was talking about the video he just posted."
"You still have an agent?"
"What are you talking about!" Gu Meng pretended to be unwilling, "I'm an actor too!"
"Oh, yes, yes." Jiang Ningyue said perfunctorily.
"My agent asked me to ask you if you need the company's help with licensing. Then we can sell the song and make money. Our company will take 30% of the profits."
"Okay." Jiang Ningyue nodded, "It's settled."
"Okay, I'll ask my agent, Sister Qian, to come over and sign the contract."
As she spoke, Gu Meng suddenly thought, "By the way, have you paid off your student loan?"
Speaking of student loans, Jiang Ningyue suddenly remembered that she still had a foreign debt of 32,000 yuan on her back!
Student loans are interest-free loans provided by the government specifically for impoverished students. The maximum annual loan amount is 8,000 yuan, or 32,000 yuan over four years. Jiang Ningyue hadn't worked since graduation, so naturally, she had no money to repay.
"No."
Jiang Ningyue suddenly realized, "I just happened to have some money now, I can pay it back after the National Day holiday."
"Uh-huh."
Gu Meng took out her phone and handed it to Jiang Ningyue, "Look, everyone's comments are very high!"
"Of course, that's my level!"
——
Gu Meng's agent, Qian Li, was impatient. She said she would come on the 1st, and she arrived in Haining on the afternoon of the 2nd. After arriving at Jiang Ningyue's apartment, Qian Li's eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Ningyue. "You are so beautiful. You will definitely be famous if you become an actress."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and shook her head, "I still quite like my current job."
"Indeed." Qian Li nodded, then took out the contract and handed it to Jiang Ningyue. "This is an authorized agency contract. It fully authorizes our company to represent your songs. The profit sharing ratio is 7:3."
Jiang Ningyue took a look and found that the agency contract was very simple, similar to renting a house through an agent. After signing the contract, Qian Li smiled and said:
"I negotiated three contracts last night. If nothing goes wrong, you can earn hundreds of thousands from this song."
"So much?" Jiang Ningyue was curious, "Even if my song is free?"
"Right," Qian Li explained to Jiang Ningyue, "Because the video website needs your authorization to use your song as background music, the licensing fee is at least 200,000 yuan a year. And that's because you're not very famous. If it were an exclusive license, it would probably be even more expensive. After the hype dies down, a few tens of thousands a year should be fine."
“Wow.”
Jiang Ningyue's eyes lit up. It seemed she had found a way to get rich. If she could release a song every month, she would have no worries about food and clothing in the future.
Gu Meng sat aside and watched Jiang Ningyue and Qian Li talking with a smile. Although it seemed that the money had nothing to do with her at the moment, she was also very happy.
Jiang Ningyue glanced at Gu Meng and saw that she looked normal and even happy for her. Jiang Ningyue couldn't help but feel warm in her heart.
Some people say that many people can only share happiness but not hard times.
But nowadays, many people can endure ordinary and lonely times together, but cannot stand the success of those around them.
I am afraid that my brother is having a hard life, and I am also afraid that my brother is driving a Land Rover.
Obviously, Gu Meng is not that kind of person.
After signing the contract, Qian Li did not leave in a hurry, but took Jiang Ningyue and Gu Meng to eat nearby.
