Chapter 186

"Congratulations."

Cong Lixia's voice came out. Hearing this, Jiang Juyou curled her lips. The joy on her face could not be hidden. She also congratulated him. "Congratulations."

After all, he was also the boss of Random Entertainment.

Jiang Juyou, who was standing in front of the office, raised her head suddenly. She wanted to take a look down, and suddenly she felt the coldness in the office. In the past, there were always many books piled in her office. This was because Jiang Juyou was a latecomer, so she had to study while working. In addition to books, there were also many things for entertaining guests. The senior executives of the company had sat on the sofa in front.

Now it is different. Her office is as clean as a model room, restored to the way it was when she first came here.

Jiang Juyou looked at the office like this and was stunned for a moment, but it was only a few seconds, and she quickly recovered.

Cong Lixia noticed her pause and kept staring at her. Jiang Juyou packed up her things and prepared to go downstairs, and then shared her recent arrangements with Cong Lixia as usual.

"I will leave almost after the album is recorded. I will adapt to the language environment there in advance, and the subsequent work can only be done online." She was wearing headphones, and to outsiders it looked like she was talking to someone.

Jiang Juyou said hello to the assistants at the door, "I'm going to the recording studio downstairs. It's almost time, you can leave now. Bye!"

"Bye Jiang!"

Only Jiang Juyou could hear Cong Lixia's voice. He continued her words, "It doesn't matter if they speak too fast. I can be your translator."

Jiang Juyou was amused by his self-serving remarks. "Thank you..."

The elevator went down and arrived at the music production area.

It was like a maze, with many passages and countless small squares, where all the music producers worked. Going forward to the center, there was a sunken reception room with a circle of sofas, and the snack rack next to it was always full.

Jiang Juyou went to the beverage cabinet and picked up a bottle of oolong tea, then entered the recording studio.

"Oh! Jiang Zhihao." Pei Luming, who was sitting on the sofa, stood up and greeted him. The producer and engineer sitting in front of the computer also turned around and nodded to Jiang Juyou.

Jiang Juyou nodded, responded to the greeting, then pulled a chair and sat in front of the computer, "Where is the recording?" "

Yao Shuo only has a few more harmonies to finish." The producer said, pointing to Yao Shuo inside.

The people inside couldn't hear the noise outside. Yao Shuo was wearing headphones and looking at the lyrics in his hand, following the melody in his mouth.

"We can start...Oh! Jiang Zhihao!" Only then did he see Jiang Juyou sitting outside.

Jiang Juyou raised his hand to say hello, then pressed the controller and said, "Just continue with your song." Then he motioned to the engineer next to him to play music for him.

"Then... let's start with Pei Luming's part. I'll listen to it first." Yao Shuo put down the lyrics paper and marked it a few times with a pencil.

Jiang Juyou turned back to look at Pei Luming and asked him, "Have you finished recording?"

"I have finished recording, but there are some places I want to modify, so I will wait for Brother Yao Shuo to come out before I go." Pei Luming replied.

Jiang Juyou nodded and turned back.

The songs being recorded now are to be collected in the first family album, and also to prepare for Coachella. Each group has a new song. Apart from that, the rest of the songs are in English, and the songs selected are all popular and popular hits.

In fact, after the Winter Camp concert, John intended to invite them to the stage of the music festival. The negotiation in the next few days was entirely due to the performance time and performance period.

In the end, the organizer gave them 70 minutes.

These 70 minutes cannot be evenly divided into each group, and there must be more and less. The three limited groups only have seven minutes on the stage. Among the remaining four groups, except for Timetrain, the other three only have three and a half songs, and the remaining 16 minutes are all for Timetrain.

As soon as they got the news of the successful negotiation, the teachers in the performance department began to design the stage for each group. The duration and song selection were determined by them before, and now the result is out, and they need to increase or delete according to the duration.

It was expected to be 60 minutes before, but it was unexpected that the final negotiation would add 10 minutes.

Jiang Juyu stayed in the recording studio until the early morning, ordered rounds of takeout, and sent off one group of people and welcomed another.

Recording is just the beginning of all preparations -

in addition to recording, the company also invited an equipment production company to come and customize the ear monitors and microphones according to their needs, and strive to get the customized microphones before going to the United States.

Jiang Juyu hasn't followed up on a project so carefully for a long time, and he feels a lack of energy after a long time.

In addition to the people from the various operation teams and the performance department, there is also a special group responsible for various communications in the middle. Jiang Juyou has led them to contact the organizers to confirm the audio equipment in the past few days.

"To be honest, we went there at that time, and the sound on the spot was not very good, but everyone enjoyed the atmosphere and didn't feel it very much. If you watch the live broadcast, those shortcomings will be magnified."

The stage they are going to step on is the largest stage among the several venues of the music festival, and because it has a roof, there may be echoes, and the sound will bounce back, which is better than expanding outward all the time.

But I don't know if it's because of the microphone or the live broadcast. They have watched several stages in the past few days and the microphone sound is too low, which greatly affects the viewing experience.

"Have you got the data of the audio equipment over there?"

"Yes."

"It can't be compared with our equipment, but it is indeed standard for music festivals. I guess the problem lies in the radio and broadcasting."

"Then this is not something we can control."

Jiang Juyu stayed up all night for a few nights. Ji had to worry about matters related to the music festival and also take care of the first family album.

They discussed the exterior design alone for a week.

In the conference room, Jiang Juyu's eyelids were slightly swollen, and the trash can under her feet was filled with paper balls. Recently, they have been working all night and the temperature has dropped. As luck would have it, they caught a cold. It can even be said that there is no one in the company who doesn't have a cold. Those with fever have been approved for leave to go back and rest, leaving only these runny noses and sneezing people who are still here in the meeting.

There were various packaging designs on the table, which were their design inspirations. Several artists were waiting for the project boss to make a decision, otherwise they could not start working.

Lin Jie sneezed and muttered, "So are we going to make that little card hell this time?"

"We're back to square one. Why don't you guys first determine the price, and then discuss what to put in it." Another person said speechlessly.

"The little card hell will cause disgust among fans."

"I still think it's better to make it into a steel box like this butter biscuit. It can be reused, and there's still plenty of space. We don't have to consider how to leave space for other things." "

Then the cost is too high."

Jiang Juyou, who was sitting there, rubbed his temples and didn't say anything.

Lin Jie noticed that she was not feeling well and said, "Boss, why don't you go back and rest? You've been up for several nights."

"That's right. We were just sneezing, but you look like you're about to die."

"Your mouth..."

"Pah, pah, pah!"

Jiang Juyu was amused by them, then stood up from the sofa and said, "I just have a stuffy nose, everything else is fine... I think Qingqing's suggestion is not bad, make it into a butter cookie box."

She picked up the box on the table and said, "A square one should be good... about the size of an A4 paper."

"Did you hear that? Boss said my idea is not bad!" Qingqing perked up and moved forward, "The design of this outer packaging can be made into seven versions according to various combinations, and the small card crisps inside should be a whole set."

"The cost is so high, and you still give us a complete set. Do you really think our company is doing charity?"

"...Then let's do it randomly?"

"There are more than 40 idols. How long will it take to keep doing it randomly?"

"Okay, it's the same cycle again!"

Jiang Juyou was helpless about their bickering. She rubbed her temples twice, and then made the decision: "...Let's do as Qingqing said. The external guarantee is in combination. Make seven. The content inside is still the old style. Follow the combination. As for the small cards...let's do it randomly. Randomly pick ten cards and encourage fans to exchange with each other."

"Add a calendar in it. It's just the New Year." Jiang Juyou said whatever he thought of, "Two sets of small cards, one set of technology cards, one set of cookie cards, and two cookie card holders."

"What about the price?"

"Let them decide the price. They will decide the price based on the cost. Let's see what the final cost is."

Jiang Juyou said, glancing at the time. "It's a coincidence today. It's exactly six o'clock. Okay, let's go home and have a rest early. We have been working hard for several days."

The girls sitting there began to pack their things. Qingqing picked up her bag and called a subordinate to come in to clean up the table.

Jiang Juyou put on her headphones and rubbed her temples again. Seeing that she was not in a good mental state, Lin Jie followed her and said, "I'll drive you home."

"...Okay, thank you." Jiang Juyou said, taking out the car key from her bag and giving it to her.

The two of them came to the parking lot on the second floor. There were people exercising in the gym. Lin Jie took a look and saw that it was Jiang Wangran.

After getting in the car, Jiang Juyou closed her eyes and rested, while Lin Jie quietly adjusted the navigation and prepared to start the car.

Jiang Juyou, who was sitting in the passenger seat, listened to the article that Cong Lixia read to her and gradually fell asleep.

During the ten minutes on the road, Jiang Juyou was unconscious and fell asleep directly. It felt like she was home in the blink of an eye.

"Boss, we're here."

"Hmm..."

Jiang Juyou slowly woke up while listening to the jungle birds in the headphones.

Lin Jie also teased her, "You are really tired."

After Jiang Juyou was no longer involved in the details of the project, her work content was much less, and she rarely showed up at the company, so her rest time became more.

The past few days were like returning to the time when the company was just founded. Jiang Juyu would feel uneasy if she didn't participate in some activities, and she was exhausted for several days.

Others were working on one project, but Jiang Juyu had to follow up on several projects at the same time, and her brain capacity was almost not enough.

After unbuckling her seat belt, Jiang Juyu pinched her shoulders and said, "Thank you, hurry back, it's rush hour now."

"Okay, see you tomorrow, boss." Lin Jie also unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car.

There was no one at home. Jiang Juyu turned on the light after entering the door, took off her shoes, and fell tiredly on the sofa.

Cong Lixia was not sure whether she wanted to rest on the sofa for a while or sleep here, so she didn't dare to call her.

After a while, the door rang, and it was Jiang Liuxing who came in.

Cong Lixia had a headache. Jiang Juyu's sister was quite noisy, and she was afraid that she would wake Jiang Juyu up.

But when Jiang Liuxing came in and saw her sister lying on the sofa, she even slowed down the movement of slippers. She came to her sister quietly, squatted down and took a closer look, then made a decision, stood up and walked to the bathroom.

Jiang Liuxing filled a basin with warm water, and also brought a face towel and makeup remover.

She was afraid of waking her sister up, so she didn't even dare to move her hair too much.

"...Hmm?" Jiang Juyu opened her eyes a little and looked at her sister.

Jiang Liuxing whispered, "You sleep, I'll help you remove your makeup."

"Thank you..."

Not long after closing her eyes, Jiang Jueyou remembered something, "...Where have you been during this time? I haven't seen you at home."

"You're not at home, how do you know I haven't come back?"

"My sister said she hadn't seen you for a few days."

"Is she back?"

"..."

Jiang Liuxing paused, took a close look at her sister, and then continued in a low voice: "I'm going to England. Your house is ready, but there is no furniture. I went over to put the furniture in place for you. I also delivered your books to you... Oh, I've already put them in place for you!"

She thought her sister was asleep, but unexpectedly Jiang Juyu suddenly raised one corner of her mouth and smiled: "Thank you."

Jiang Liuxing, who has always been rebellious and jumpy, suddenly blushed a little, "...Then can I go to England with you?"

"No."

"..." Jiang Liuxing even stopped wiping her face.

At this time, Jiang Tang, who had just gone to the supermarket to buy vegetables, came back with two large bags in her hands. After coming in, she hurriedly said: "Hurry up, help me carry it!"

The moment Cong Lixia sensed the plastic bag, she turned on the noise reduction for Jiang Jueyu, blocking out the noisy sound.

Jiang Liuxing also quickly said, "Sister, keep your voice down, the second sister is sleeping!"

"Oh oh oh... why are you sleeping on the sofa, what are you doing there?" Jiang Tang's movements also slowed down. She picked up the two bags again, brought them to the restaurant, and placed them on the dining table.

Jiang Liuxing shook the things in her hands, "Help the second sister remove her makeup."

"The sun rises from the west... Do you want to go to England to accompany your second sister again?"

Jiang Liuxing, who was poked, "..."

"Let your second sister sleep in the bedroom. I bought some hot pot ingredients and she can come out to eat after I'm done." Jiang Tang said as she sorted out the things in the bag.

Jiang Liuxing turned around and poked Jiang Juyou, "Sister, my elder sister asked you to sleep in the bedroom."

Jiang Juyou didn't move.

"She fell asleep." Jiang Liuxing said to her sister.

Jiang Tang looked back and said, "Then forget about her. Come and help me... turn off the lights in the living room."

"Oh..." Jiang Liuxing stood up and said.

The world was quiet in noise reduction mode. Jiang Juyou slept for more than an hour, and finally woke up when she smelled the smell of hot pot.

Seeing her sitting on the sofa, Jiang Tang was surprised and said, "What a coincidence, I was just about to call you."

"Hot pot?" Jiang Juyou stood up, yawned, and stretched.

"Well, go wash your hands and get ready to eat." Jiang Tang put the bowl away and said to Jiang Juyou.

Everyone in the company has been very busy recently, and everyone knows why they are so busy.

In addition to these projects, the main reason is that Jiang Juyu will be going to the UK after the spring. All the projects currently on hand should be completed or pushed forward, and she should be given a satisfactory report before she leaves.

The staff are so busy, and these idols must have felt it and knew that Jiang Zhi would go to the UK after the Spring Festival.

Then they started to think about it.

"What do you think, should we prepare a surprise?"

"A farewell party?"

"But Jiang Zhi will only be gone for a year, and will be back next year."

"It will take at least half a year! You are not brought up by Jiang Zhi!"

These people from Timetrain squatted together, discussing how to give a surprise.

"It's definitely not possible just by us."

"Of course, what if there's a competition, one does well and the other doesn't, it will be so embarrassing."

"Okay, I'll send them a message."

"As for the girl group..."

"Pei Luming will contact them."

"Why should I go?"

"Isn't your sister Pei Zhiping?"

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot."

"..."

In the early morning, when most people were asleep, the groups that had finished practicing gathered together.

When Jiang Wangran and Chi Qiao appeared together, they were holding four or five takeout bags in their hands, which made the others cheer.

Pei Zhiping touched Pei Luming with his arm, "Is your information accurate? We heard that Jiang Zhi would leave before the Spring Festival."

"Ah? Before the Spring Festival?" Pei Luming quickly looked at Gao Xiayu.

Gao Xiayu said, "We asked Lin Zhi, and she said after the Spring Festival."

"That's fine."

Han Lemi on the side was drawing something on her iPad. After she finished drawing, she picked it up to show others, "...you guys take a look."

This plan was thought up by the four of them together. Si Yanyu sat aside and explained, "What we were thinking of is to create a surprise for Jiang Zhi at the Gailexi venue."

Gailexi is the starting point of random entertainment and the stage where all their groups debuted. The meaning is self-evident. To them and to Jiang Zhi, the Gailexi venue is extremely important.

"We came up with the idea of ​​handwritten letters and group photos. When the time comes, we will make a book of our letters for Jiang Zhi. We can put the group photos with Jiang Zhi on the big screen and reminisce... I can't take it anymore. My tears are about to fall." Si Yanyu's eyes became red as she spoke.

Jiang Wangran, who was eating opposite, raised his eyebrows. He didn't understand why she was crying. He didn't know whether to eat or not.

Xia Simiao was flipping through the photo album to see which group photos she had with Jiang Zhi. As she flipped through the album, she said, "I think this one is good."

"Then they are all in the Gailex Stadium. Isn't it time to perform a show or something?" Pei Luming made a stupid suggestion.

Yao Shuo retorted and blocked his mouth with a salad, "You'll be so embarrassed."

"Then I think reading a handwritten letter is also quite embarrassing."

"The handwritten letter is made into a booklet for Jiang Zhi to take away! Did you just hear that?" Ye Xing couldn't help it.

Pei Zhiping, who was sitting next to him, glared at him.

Pei Luming: "..."

"All of you look through the albums to see if there are any photos with Jiang Zhi. Forget about those that are too commercial." Yu Dan assigned tasks to everyone.

Jiang Juyu, who was eating hot pot at home, did not forget to check her phone. She remembered that the lineup for the music festival would be officially announced in the next two days.

Sure enough, as soon as she turned on her phone, she saw many people sending her messages to inform her that it had been officially announced.

Jiang Juyou put down his chopsticks, opened Weibo to check, and didn't forget to tell his sister: "Our music festival has been officially announced."

"What music festival, Midsummer Nights Season 2?" Jiang Liuxing opened his phone to check, but just when he wanted to search for the words Midsummer Music Festival, he saw the hot search terms pushed to him #Random Entertainment Brings All Members to Coachella#

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh——" Jiang Liuxing stood up suddenly and screamed while holding his phone.

Jiang Tang, who was standing next to him, was almost scared to death. She covered her heart and patted Jiang Liuxing's butt a few times, "Why are you shouting so loudly? What time is it now!"

Jiang Liuxing didn't forget his identity as a marketing account. He quickly sent messages to employees and collected materials to prepare to shoot a video.

Jiang Tang saw her rushing into the room and asked, "Don't you want to eat?"

"I'm not eating anymore—"

Jiang Tang glanced at Jiang Jueyou who was busy sending messages across from her. She guessed that she wasn't eating anymore either.

The night should be a quiet time, but the Internet at this time seems to be particularly active.

Hot search terms come one after another, and marketing accounts and music bloggers are all carrying this news.

"Title: Eat melons and discuss/I've never seen this before... All the members of Random Entertainment are going to Coachella."

"After seeing that hot search, I was so scared that I lost my sleepiness. I screamed and jumped out of bed!"

"Who understands! I really want to open the window and shout "Random Entertainment, you deserve all this!!!" ””

Comment section:

“It’s domestic entertainment history…”

“They’re not the first Asian artist to go on stage, nor are they the first Chinese artist to go on stage.”

“Oh my god, the answers above are so easy that I thought anyone who wants to go to this music festival can go on stage.”

“There’s really something there, everyone’s going on.”

“Why didn’t I see where it is?”

“Reply: Second group, third row!”

“Witness history, leave your name.”

“OP, I’m shouting for you! Ahhhhh, too exciting! The hangover medicine really carries the whole company!”

“Sure enough, what someone said last time that the founder went to their concert was not fake news.”

“…Actually, I’m a little worried. They don’t have many fans abroad. Will they be ridiculed if they just go there like that?”

“There will be haters saying whether I go or not, so I might as well go. Hahahahahahahahaha, there’s a stage to watch again! Stage fans are ecstatic!”

"Don't worry, I see the travel agency is keeping up with current events and has already launched a Coachella package."

The next day was the real carnival. Many fans who woke up were really excited after seeing the news, and the trending searches that were about to drop were pushed back to the top.

Overseas fans were really surprised. Although there are many groups that can perform at international music festivals now, it is unheard of for all members to perform like Random Entertainment.

It is common for groups to struggle to move forward with the company as a big hindrance. It is really rare to find a company like Random Entertainment that has financial resources to support it.

“No wonder when fans scold them, they always scold the operation team directly…”

“Are they part of the operation team?”

“Last time I saw Equals3’s fans scolding the operation team for wasting all the money the company allocated. So that’s what they meant.”

“The resources are so good. Fans don’t have to worry about them. I’m so happy.”

“I’m jealous. I want to ask when Random Entertainment will set up a branch in Korea, and whether they can help me get a visa there.”

“I’m so happy. It would be even better if they could add online autograph sessions. I can’t go to China. I can’t get a visa.”

“I really want to go to Coachella!”

The fact that all the members of Random Entertainment are about to go to the United States to participate in Coachella has become a topic that various media are scrambling to report. Recently, the topic discussed in magazines is more about what content will be prepared for Coachella.

Only this kind of international schedule can attract the attention of those who don't chase stars. Recently, there has been a lot of news about Random Entertainment, and it is hard for them not to know.

A few weeks after the official announcement of Coachella, Random Entertainment officially announced the upcoming release of its first family album.

The official announcement was made in the morning, and the sales link was opened in the afternoon. It will be available on major music platforms next week.

It can be seen that they have been waiting for the official announcement.

“Although… the probability of picking my number from 44 to 10 is also very small!”

“What do you mean, are Cookie Cards limited?”

“Cookie Cards are only available if the order number contains 4… Random Entertainment, go to 414 first.”

“What a beautiful box!”

“The most expensive album in the history of Random Entertainment.”

“179… I’d rather have a paper box.”

This was everyone’s reaction before getting the actual product, but when the actual product arrived, the fans who bought it immediately changed their minds -

“Fuck! Those of you who don’t buy it are in trouble!”

“It’s on sale for a limited time of two weeks, hurry up and buy it if you haven’t bought it! There are still many Cookie Cards that haven’t been drawn!”

“I declare that the King of Random Country Cards has appeared - Cookie Card”

“Such a fragrant, sweet and beautiful little card, mommy is crying, how can my little baby be so cute!”

"It really smells like butter cookies! So fragrant and I want to bite it!"

"Little pig, now mom really wants to eat you!"

"It's amazing!"

The cookie card has a fragrance, but the more amazing thing is that it is thick and can be broken. When you break it, it will make a crisp sound of biscuits, but the card will not break apart. It will return to its original shape when you break it back.

Its card back is in the shape of a cookie with patterns on it, and the fragrance comes from it. In order to fit the concept of cookies, even the selfies on the card are mostly brown.

Other peripherals are not very attractive to fans, but this cookie card has captured the hearts of fans.

Overseas fans are also crazy about it.

But Random Entertainment releases family albums not for sales or money, but for publicizing the source of sound.

"Neon Light" followed up with a family version, hoping to keep it on the charts for a little longer.

This song has already entered the B chart, and the company naturally hopes that it will go up again.

The remaining songs are mostly English versions of their previous hits, and many people have guessed what songs they will perform at Coachella based on this playlist.

In short, curiosity and anticipation have been aroused.
