I, the soft heroine, make money!
Work related
.
Clingy and mischievous, but always able to hit her heart.
"Hey, don't walk behind me next time." Once the first sentence of comforting words was uttered, it was very natural and blurted out afterwards.
"Yeah, it won't happen in the future, Teacher Yan, remember to remind me!" Ruan Jiao nodded desperately.
Luo Yilin, who was packing two meals and walking this way: ...
Boss, are you getting too into the drama?
The show is already off, boss, pay attention to your image in the company, hey!
Didn't you see the few people who were just about to leave the cafeteria, they were completely stunned!
Luo Yilin, the gold-medal assistant who was tired, took a deep breath, covered her shock and complaints, walked over indifferently, and put down the dinner plate.
She is going to make another meal and calm down.
……
on the table.
Ruan Jiao stared at the three plates of vegetable salads without any sauce, with a tangled expression on her face.
After finally returning to the embrace of the eight major cuisines, do we have to live in the United States again and eat grass every day?
"Let me make another copy for you." Yan Ke said.
"Teacher Yan, are the cafeterias full of these dishes?" The staff of Shixin Entertainment are too pitiful, don't they even have the right to eat meat?
"Of course not." Yan Ke chuckled, "Do you have any taboos? I'll make another copy for you."
Luo Yilin who was next to her immediately stood up, "Let me come, boss."
"No need."*2
"Thank you, Sister Yilin, I'll go and choose the dishes myself." Ruan Jiao was a little embarrassed, rubbing her nose and explaining, "I didn't have breakfast today, I want to have some dinner at noon."
Luo Yilin who is used to eating salads: Our definition of dinner is a bit different :)
Ruan Jiao got up, said NO to the colorful vegetables in front of her heart, and prayed that the cafeteria of Shixin Entertainment would have a normal lunch.
Yan Ke got up and took her to the Chinese dining area to choose dishes.
Luo Yilin: ...
Isn't she an assistant?How do you feel like a light bulb?
This must be her illusion...
"Delicious!" After choosing lunch again, Ruan Jiao praised her without hesitation after taking the first bite.
"The chef of Shixin Entertainment is so pitiful!" She sighed after eating a sweet and sour short rib.
Yan Ke & Luo Yilin:? ? ?
"Such a good cooking skill, but no one appreciates it. The chefs must be very sad."
"It's a pity that the delicacies made with heart every day are no match for a few lettuce leaves with no cooking skills."
Yan Ke & Luo Yilin: ...You are right.
"Teacher Yan, sister Yilin, don't you want to try it?" Ruan Jiao pointed to the small ribs on the plate. They were shiny and steaming hot, and there was a hint of sweet and sour fragrance wafting out.
Ruan Jiao took small bites and gnawed earnestly, eating with relish, with a satisfied expression on her face, which made people feel that her index finger was twitching when she saw it.
Yan Ke picked up the fork, put a piece into his mouth, and nodded in agreement after eating.
"The standard of the company's chefs is really good."
Luo Yilin: The lettuce in front of me is tasteless.
Just when Luo Yilin was at war with man and was considering whether to be a traitor to the Sala Party, the voices of several Sala Party members came from behind.
"It seems that we are late again, is there only a heat bomb left?"
"Ah? No! Then I won't eat."
"What's the point of lunch without lettuce!"
"That's right, it's better not to eat."
Ruan Jiao, who was disgusted by the food on the plate because she was facing several people: ...
What, lunch without lettuce is interesting!
It may be that the disapproval on Ruan Jiao's face was too obvious. Among them, a girl with slightly dark skin suddenly made a sound of surprise.
"Ruan Jiao?" She showed her big white teeth in a smile, "Did you come to Shixin too? When did it happen?"
"Uh... today."
"Great, I haven't seen you for a long time, let's go to dance practice together later."
"Then what," Ruan Jiao smiled awkwardly, "I just came to see it." She couldn't reveal the fact that she came here for dinner.
"Are you still in the stage of negotiating the contract?" The girl looked clear, "Our company is very good. Although Mr. Yan is a bit cold, he is very considerate of the company's artists."
She waved to the people next to her and sat down next to Ruan Jiao.
"Why don't you just sign with our company! Boss Yan..."
"Yan... President Yan?!!"
The girl choked suddenly, and looked at the person opposite Ruan Jiao in horror, with disbelief written all over her face.
She just... didn't say anything bad about Mr. Yan...
"Friend?" Yan Ke nodded to her, and turned his gaze to Ruan Jiao.
"Well, we used to be trainees of Starlight Entertainment."
If her guess is correct, the European and American beauty in front of her should be the "Black Swan", one of the original owner's two friends mentioned in the book.
"It's just right, I have a meeting later." Yan Ke wiped the corners of his lips, "Why don't you let your friend take you to play in the company for a while? I'll send you back when I'm done here."
"Okay, thank you, Teacher Yan." With other people present, Ruan Jiao was too embarrassed to reveal her true nature, which made it difficult for Yan Ke.
……
Five o'clock in the afternoon, Yan Ke's office.
"Tsk, you're really looking for trouble for me!" The visitor had a full beard and leaned on the sofa with his legs crossed.
"A theme song, just a supporting role, uncle can't make the decision, right?"
"It's one thing to be in charge, but it's another thing to cast a cast. It's because I am in charge that I have to be strict." The producer, director and screenwriter are all himself, and Yan Ke's aggressive method is useless to him .
"Ruan Jiao's singing skills, you have praised before, singing the theme song is no problem. As for the supporting role, didn't you say that you only need to be in charge of Meimeimei?"
"Stop, stop!" Shi An made a pause gesture.
"I know you have a high opinion of Ruan Jiao, but you don't have to put it on me. Isn't this cheating your uncle? You can find an unimportant supporting role for her. As for the theme song, I still want to get the best soundtrack ,no."
Yan Ke was silent.
After a while, she opened the door, "Since you have doubts about Ruan Jiao's singing skills, it just so happens that Ruan Jiao is also in the company now, let's go and try it out?"
"...All right," Shi An said helplessly, "If it's not suitable later, don't say that uncle doesn't give you face."
What singing skills can an idol singer have?
He just boasted casually at that time, but who knew that Yan Ke not only took it seriously, but also insisted on using this to blackmail him, and she would not participate in the show unless he was given an interview opportunity.
It seemed that he had to think carefully about how to be more tactful in refusing later.
Chapter 14
"Tsk, idol!"
Shi An has already made up his mind, no matter how intimidating Yan Ke is, he will resolutely refuse.
Idol, isn't it just like that, basically synonymous with good looks and lack of strength.
In the circle, most of the directors invite traffic idols to play leading roles for investment or favor, but in the end, they all lose both box office and word of mouth.
When he was Anqin, he had been working diligently on filming for more than [-] years, and he did not rely on such illusory things as traffic.
Besides, acting and singing are completely different industries.
An actor with qualified appearance, no matter how poor his acting skills are, as long as he has a famous director and teacher willing to train|teach him and train for a year or two, he can still look good in the film.
Among other things, the actors who debuted through him, whether they are "girls of the time" or "boys of the time", are all praised by the industry.
That's why, he would agree to let Ruan Jiao play a supporting role - he had already prepared that the other party had no acting skills and needed long-term guidance, so he just wanted to show off Yan Ke's face.
However, he didn't intend to back down on the theme song of the movie.
Yes, he did praise Ruan Jiao for her beautiful singing.
However, this is an evaluation based on the identity of a girl idol.
He is not a professional musician, but he also listened to the mouthwatering songs that Ruan Jiao sang in the talent competition—at most, he scored 70 points.If you add Ruan Jiao's beauty value, you can score between 80 and 90 points.
Of course, except for the solo song in the finals, it was the only song in the entire audition that could score close to 100 points.
It's a pity that it doesn't match the style of his movies...
"Teacher Yan, what do you think of Ruan Jiao's voice?" He looked at the person next to him.
Yan Ke is used to her uncle's intermittent convulsions, and he has long been used to the fact that he imitates fans and calls himself Teacher Yan.
She looked indifferent.
I thought about what I wanted to say, but before I knew it, I lost my usual coolness.
"Ruan Jiao's voice is clean and ethereal, but when singing love songs, it is cute and sweet, and it is very malleable."
In fact, if she hadn't investigated Ruan Jiao's performance as a trainee, she wouldn't have recommended her directly to Shi An—the trainee department of Starlight Entertainment, who spoke very highly of Ruan Jiao's singing and dancing skills.
"Plasticity?" Shi An gave a "tsk", "How many songs has she sung on stage?"
"..." She investigated Ruan Jiao privately, but she seemed to have forgotten to tell Shi An.
Shi An continued on his own: "The tone of my film, as you know, follows the path of violent aesthetics."
"En." Yan Ke remained silent, waiting for Shi An to continue.
"So, I prefer to invite male singers to sing the theme song." Ruan Jiao's voice, in his opinion, was still too soft.
After thinking about it, he decided to vaccinate his niece first.
"How about, if she doesn't perform well later, I'll recommend her to Old Tang? He's making a romance movie recently."
"uncle……"
"Okay, okay, listen to it later, and then make a decision."
Anyway, he had already figured out how to refuse.
……
10 minute later.
Shi An took out a cigarette and stood at the door of the training room with a serious expression, without saying a word.
But Yan Ke noticed that Shi An's hand holding the cigarette trembled slightly.
"Huh..." Shi An exhaled, closed his eyes, and didn't know what he was thinking.
Many years later, when the reporter asked Shi An how he discovered Ruan Jiao, an all-round star, Shi An still remembered this afternoon.
"Some people are born superstars."
Just like now, even in a small singing room, even if Ruan Jiao's only accompaniment instrument is a guitar in her hand, the way she sings softly with her eyes downcast is still touching.
The singing is lonely and helpless, but it implies firmness and care, and slowly expresses the warning and concern for the girl who is new to the world, which is very heartwarming.
Ruan Jiao's originally ethereal voice was heartbreaking at this moment.
"Ooh, baby, baby, it`swildworld
I`ll always remember you like a child, girl"
"It's her. This is the voice of my heroine when she sent her sweetheart away on the eve of revenge." Shi An stubbed out the cigarette and strode into the karaoke room.
"Ruan Jiao, right?"
"Ah?" Ruan Jiao looked puzzled, turned her head, saw Yan Ke, and immediately smiled like a flower.
"Teacher Yan, have you finished the meeting?" After speaking, she stood up and walked to Yan Ke's side in two or three steps.
The curvature of the corners of her mouth was just right, and the dimples that appeared in her smile made her whole face vivid and bright.
It is a hundred times sweeter than laughing on stage.
Shi'an: Go to the fucking loneliness and helplessness, go to the fucking heartbreak!
Isn't this still the sweet girl idol!
"This is Director Shi An," Yan Ke explained to her, "He just came to the company, and he came to listen to your singing skills."
"Oh, hello, director." Ruan Jiao smiled commercially, but she couldn't see the excitement that she should have when meeting an international director.
Shi An didn't mind either: "Well, Teacher Yan recommended you to sing the theme song of my next movie, I think it's okay."
"Really? Thank you, Teacher Yan!" Ruan Jiao immediately raised her head and grinned at Yan Ke.
Shi An: Who is the director?
Fortunately, Shi An is also an informal person, he doesn't exchange pleasantries, and goes straight to the point.
"Ruan Jiao, besides this song, do you have any songs with a similar genre?"
"Ah?" Ruan Jiao reacted for two seconds, realizing that he had misunderstood, "Shi Dao, this song is not original by me."
"Not your original?"
"Correct."
"Who wrote that?"
"Cat Stevens."
"Who?" Shi An's voice was a step higher than before.
"Cat Stevens," Ruan repeated, "an English folk-rock singer."
Shi An's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
He has listened to English songs for so many years, country rock pop rap all over the place, but he has never heard of this name.
If this person named Cat Stevens has such a level of composition and lyrics, how can he be so unknown?
He looked at Yan Ke and frowned slightly: "Have you heard this song before?"
Yan Ke: "No."
Shi An turned to Ruan Jiao: "Do you have the singer's contact information?"
"……No."
"It's okay, this song is more suitable for an episode. If it's the theme song, I'll let you sing it then." He thought Ruan Jiao was hiding something.
"..." Ruan Jiao understood what he meant, but couldn't explain it to him.
"Otherwise, invite your friend to come to Huaxia and ask Mr. Yan to help him release an album. With his talent, it would be too wasteful to be an unknown street singer." Shi An had already imagined the other party's background , I feel nothing more than being underappreciated.
"Uh..." Ruan Jiao bit the bullet and refused, "It's too far away, he can't come"
"It doesn't matter!" Shi An waved his hand, "Yan Ke paid for the air ticket and accommodation, just ask him to come directly."
Yan Ke: It's none of my business...
Ruan Jiao was embarrassed, with a delicate expression: "Shi Dao, it's not that I'm hiding something, but...he really can't come." If you want to come, you can't unless you take the space-time shuttle.
Shi An was taken aback: "Is he dead?"
"Yeah." Although she is still alive and well on Earth, but in this world, if she doesn't say that, she can't find any other explanation.
Did you tell Shi An that this person was not born yet?
In the karaoke room, there was a moment of silence.
"Okay, then I'll think about it." Shi An rubbed his chin, as if planning something, "I'll talk to you about the theme song of the movie in a few days."
After speaking, without saying goodbye, he waved his hand and left.
Ruan Jiao: ...
After the unrelated people left, Ruan Jiao turned her head: "Mr. Yan, shall we go have dinner?"
"I'm afraid not today, I have something to do."
"That's it..." Ruan Jiao lowered her head.
Yan Ke walked out the door: "Let's go, I'll take you back, and I'll treat you to dinner after I'm done with this business."
"Good teacher Yan!" Ruan Jiao immediately followed, her face was full of frustration just now, and the cloudy and clear in an instant.
……
Half an hour later, at the door of Ruan Jiao's house.
The atmosphere is awkward.
Ruan Jiao, who warmly invited Yan Ke into the house just a moment ago, is holding the key as still as a mountain at the moment.
"Teacher Yan..." Her face was full of remorse and apprehension, "Why don't you come again next time?"
She just suddenly remembered that when she left this morning, she was trying on clothes in the living room.The current situation at home is probably similar to that of a kennel.
"Huh?" Looking at her embarrassed face, Yan Ke raised his eyebrows.
"Mr. Yan, don't think too much!" Ruan Jiao was worried that she would be angry, her brain was running at high speed, and she hurriedly said, "Today's almanac said that it is not suitable to see guests, and I only remembered it now."
"Oh~" Yan Ke looked at her meaningfully.
"Okay, then I'll go first, goodbye." Yan Ke turned around with a graceful posture.
"Teacher Yan!" Ruan Jiao's voice sounded very anxious.
"What's wrong?" Yan Ke glanced at the hem of his clothes being pulled, and pressed the corner of his mouth, "What else did Huang Li say?"
"Huangli... Huangli said..." She couldn't make it up.
Ruan Jiao wanted to shoot herself who was talking nonsense just now: "Mr. Yan, can you wait for me for 3 minutes!"
She turned around and inserted the key into the lock, speaking quickly, and looked at Yan Ke pleadingly.
"Just 3 minutes, Teacher Yan! I'll open the door for you in 3 minutes!"
After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Yan Ke to answer.
With a sound of "Peng", the door closed.
Yan Ke, who was standing outside the door, looked at the ordinary metal door, and a smile gradually appeared in his eyes.
"Teacher Yan, come in!" A few minutes later, Ruan Jiao opened the door.
There was a thin layer of sweat on her reddish face, and a few unruly strands of hair stuck to her cheeks and forehead messily.
Hearing her panting sound more clearly than usual, Yan Ke remained calm and quietly bent the corners of his eyes.
Leading Yan Ke to sit down in the living room, Ruan Jiao turned around and went into the kitchen, grabbed the refrigerator, and poked her head into the living room.
"Ms. Yan, I only have coffee and milk here, can I drink milk?"
"can."
"Then Mr. Yan, sit down for a while, and you'll be fine soon."
"it is good."
The little furry head went back to the kitchen in an instant.
After a while, Ruan Jiao handed a cup of warm milk to Yan Ke.
"Is it delicious, Teacher Yan? This is my favorite milk." When she was studying, she used to drink it every day in order to grow taller, but it became a habit after drinking. After work, she still has a glass of milk every day.
Fortunately, on the second day in this world, she found the same brand of milk in the imported supermarket.
"It's delicious." Yan Ke smiled lightly.
Ruan Jiao narrowed her eyes with a smile, ran into the kitchen, and came out with a glass bottle in her hand.
"Teacher Yan!" She handed the milk to Yan Ke—for a foodie, the greatest happiness is of course sharing the food she likes with the person she likes.
Yan Ke took the bottle, and the person across from him smiled again, causing her to squint slightly.
Yan Ke didn't laugh until he left Ruan Jiao and got into the car.
"Sure enough, it's a kid..." She hasn't drunk milk for many years.
After fastening the seat belt, she didn't start the car immediately, but picked up the bottle of milk that was not so cold, and was slightly lost in thought.
After a while, she opened the bottle cap, put it under the tip of her nose and smelled it.
A faint milky fragrance.
"So it's not milk-flavored perfume." She chuckled.
This scent...
It's like someone's smell when they fall into her arms.
Chapter 15
Shixin Entertainment Headquarters.
"Xiao Hei, what's the name of this producer?" Ruan Jiao asked the person next to her with a biscuit in her mouth.
"Can you stop calling me Xiao Hei..." Beside her, the beautiful girl with slightly dark skin was speechless.
"Of course, Black Swan?"
"..." The beautiful girl rolled her eyes at her.
With such a shameful nickname, it's fine for her fans to shout at her, but if she really wanted to be called that in her life, she would be ashamed.
"Can't you just call me by my name?" Ruan Jiao said angrily as she brought over the biscuit in Ruan Jiao's hand.
"No." Ruan Jiao refused very simply.
She really couldn't - because she had long forgotten the name of the beautiful girl in front of her, and only remembered her two nicknames in the book.
"Forget it, let's call it Xiao Hei." The beautiful girl snapped a piece of biscuit and decided to give up struggling.
"It's great that it's so early. In fact, the name Xiao Hei is very nice, and it has a lot of personality!"
Ruan Jiao continued the previous topic: "You haven't said yet, who is the producer of our album?"
"Time desert."
"Stone mill? Douhua?" This name really has personality.
"..."
Xiao Hei: Why do I suddenly have the illusion that I am lucky to be called Xiao Hei?
"Shi Mo, Shi An."
Ruan Jiao asked curiously: "These two people, can't they be relatives?" Otherwise, it would be too coincidental.
"They're cousins." Xiao Hei gave her a science introduction, "Not only the two of them, but the rest of the Shi family have also made achievements in various fields in the literary and art circles."
"So powerful? Mo's level was very high back then?"
"Of course, Shi Mo has always had a good eye for choosing songs, and the production level is also very guaranteed." Xiao Hei was both excited and nervous.
"I really want to know quickly what style our album will be." Shi Mo came to find the two today, with the purpose of helping them choose songs and determine the style of the album.
The two talked and laughed, and waited for Shi Mo's arrival in the conference room.
"Hello, Shi Mo." The visitor was tall and strong, and looked very intimidating.
"Hello." Ruan Jiao and Xiao Hei stood up and introduced themselves.
"I've listened to your song." He looked at Ruan Jiao, not hiding his admiration in his eyes, "To be honest, it's really a pleasant torture to choose ten songs from so many masterpieces."
He tossed them a document.
"Both of you are releasing an EP for the first time, so you probably don't have much experience. Here is my plan for your album. You can take a look."
The plan is very detailed, including the theme, song selection, album cover, and all other related matters that Shi Mo can think of.
After reading it, Xiao Hei looked excited, obviously satisfied with Shi Mo's plan.
As for Ruan Jiao?
"Shi... Teacher, this theme doesn't suit me, does it?" The arrangement for her turned out to be the theme of love.
"Just call me Old Shi." Shi Mo crossed his hands, his tone undeniable, "Your voice is sweet and delicate, very suitable for these songs."
"Among the dozens of songs, there are others that are more suitable for me." She obviously gave so many classic songs, why did she have to choose these five?
"The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Sing some cheerful songs, which are more appropriate and pleasing." Shi Mo knows the record market very well.
"Besides, you are only 20 years old. Singing some love songs is not only in line with your personality, but also the audience likes it."
Ruan Jiao: ...I go back now, is there still time for Zhong Qin to help me change my profile?
"However, among these five songs, three of them are my originals." The first time I tried the water, I just used the originals directly. Are you really not afraid of overturning?
Shi Mo laughed, as if he knew her worry.
"I haven't had time to talk about it yet. If you can write more songs of this genre, I guarantee you will be popular until you are at least 30 years old." So Ruan Jiao is not worried about her level at all.
While talking, he thought of Ruan Jiao's other original songs, and his expression immediately became very subtle.
"I've also listened to your other original songs. It's not bad, but it doesn't fit your current age and position. If you really want to sing songs that lament the impermanence of life and the illusion of life, come to me after you are 30 years old. .”
Ruan Jiao had nothing to say.
In the past six months, apart from running announcements, filming commercials, and variety shows, she just stayed at home writing and practicing songs.
After finally writing a few satisfactory songs, she wanted to dream of becoming a queen by vocal, but Shi Mo only chose a few of the simplest ones, and she had no place to show off her skills.
Seeing the stalemate between the two, Xiao Hei pushed Ruan Jiao's arm.
"I think the song "Taste of Oranges" is very nice, I like it very much. If the image doesn't match, I would like to change the album with you."
"Listen to me, that's right!" Shi Mo raised Erlang's legs and made a direct nod.
"That's it. Ruan Jiao's EP is about love. From the heartbeat of "Orange Smell", to the secret love of "Thank you, I'm sorry", to the ambiguity of "Fingertips", until the final confession and official Together, it just happens to be a complete story loop."
He put away the plans in the hands of the two and beckoned them to follow.
"Come on, try recording two songs today."
"Are you going to the recording studio now?" The two were unprepared.
"Time is tight and we're trying to get the album done by the New Year."
As he spoke, Shi Mo changed into a complaining tone again.
"What about your boss? Since you bought the record company, why don't you move it to the headquarters? Otherwise, if you want to record a song, you have to run back and forth, which is very troublesome."
Xiao Hei: Pretend not to hear what you are talking about.jpg
Ruan Jiao: I'm just a guest, I don't know anything.
Although Yan Ke hooked her up with Shi Mo, Ruan Jiao was still an artist acting in her own name from a legal point of view.
Ruan Jiao still remembered how surprised Yan Ke was when she handed those songs from the previous world to Yan Ke.
"Why is it called 'Supporting Education'?" At that time, Teacher Yan looked at the song folder with a rare expression of curiosity.
"literal meaning."
Ruan Jiao, who pretended to be 13, could only sigh in her heart: "This plane—'I'm not targeting anyone, I mean, everyone here is rubbish.'"
So, it's not teaching.
……
Recording went well.
After a week, all five of Xiao Hei's songs were recorded.
Ruan Jiao also has four songs, which passed Shi Mo's review early, except for the last song "Happy Together".
"Ruan Jiao..." Shi Mo had lost his temper after being tortured by her.
Ruan Jiao's singing skills are online, and her skills are in place. It stands to reason that she should have recorded faster than Xiao Hei, but when she recorded the last song, she always felt that something was missing.
The ending of the whole album should be a happy ending love, but Ruan Jiao has more than enough skills, but she always falls short emotionally.
"Ruan Jiao, a good singer can't just be good at singing her own songs." Shi Mo guessed that Ruan Jiao couldn't sing the last song well because it wasn't her original creation.
"I understand." Ruan Jiao herself was also distressed, this song couldn't sing the desired effect no matter what.
"Just understand." Shi Mo pondered, "Why don't you write a song with a similar theme?"
"Can't write..."
"Can't write?" Shi Mo had an expression of "you're kidding me", "Songs of this style shouldn't be difficult to write." Ruan Jiao's other songs were much more complicated than this one.
"The feelings are not in place, I really can't write..." Ruan Jiao took off the earphones without further explanation.
"When I'm old, I adjust for 10 minutes and do it again later."
"Okay, then I'll let Yan Ke come in first, and you can adjust for a while."
"Teacher Yan is here?!" Ruan Jiao paused, her eyes lit up.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Ke pushed the door open and entered.
"How is the recording, is it going well?" She handed the coffee in her hand to Shi Mo.
"It's okay, there's only one last song left." Shi Mo grumbled.
Yan Ke turned to Ruan Jiao who was coming, and handed her another cup.
Ruan Jiao took the warm paper cup and took a sip, her eyes immediately turned into moons: "It's milk!"
"Well," Yan Ke smiled slightly, "The coffee shop doesn't have the brand you like, so let's drink this one first."
"Thank you, Teacher Yan!"
Just to put it bluntly, she remembered that she never told Teacher Yan what kind of coffee she likes to drink, how could Teacher Yan know?
It turned out that what was brought to her was not coffee, but milk.
Ruan Jiao was secretly delighted. Teacher Yan remembered her preferences in her heart.
Holding the paper cup, she sipped the milk in small sips, looking up at Yan Ke from time to time.
Yan Ke and Shi Mo were exchanging greetings, felt her gaze, and bent their lips towards her sideways.
Ruan Jiao immediately frowned and smiled deeply.
After the milk was finished, Ruan Jiao also re-entered the recording studio.
In the control room separated from the recording studio by only one side of transparent glass, Yan Ke did not leave.
She was still talking with Shi Mo, her expression was indifferent, she was the cold and distant Yan Ke in the company.
Ruan Jiao's eyes stopped on her involuntarily.
The light cast a layer of frost on Yan Ke Ruxue's skin, making the coolness around her even more compelling.
In addition to the coldness, it is graceful and graceful, like a frightened bird, like a light cloud coming out of Xiu.
It is no wonder that such a peerless beauty will become a flower of Gaoling.
"Ruan Jiao, is it okay?" Shi Mo's voice came through the earphones.
"Okay."
Ruan Jiao took a deep breath and sang the song "Happy Together" that should have been filled with happiness and joy again.
"Do it again." Shi Mo gave the instruction again without emotion.
"it is good."
Do it again, still not working.
Without Shi Mo's reminder, Ruan Jiao can feel the real-time feedback from the earphones to the voice in her ears. There is no such thing as the beauty and excitement when two lovers overcome all difficulties and finally get together.
Exhaling, she closed her eyes and covered her face with her palms.
What to do, she can't sing such emotions.
Perhaps, she was too confident, and she couldn't even perform songs of this level well.
For a moment, Ruan Jiao had an impulse—she really wanted to say forget it.
"Ruan Jiao."
There was a gentle voice in the coolness, coming from the earphones.
"Take your time, Ruan Jiao, you can do it."
Ruan Jiao opened her eyes, and what she saw was a pair of watery eyes that were gentle yet firm, and an encouraging and comforting smile.
"Peng!"
In the quiet recording studio, Ruan Jiao heard the voice from her chest, which was hitting her heart passionately and agitatedly.
"When I was old," she said with a smile, "I will do it again."
This time, she looked at Yan Ke and sang the first line of the song.
"Imagine me & you, Ido."
……
Imagine is a beautiful word.
When the four eyes meet, it is the time to understand; when Teacher Yan smiles, it is the time when her heart beats.
Today's heartbeat is probably... the heartbeat of milk flavor.
Chapter 16
In the bedroom, it was pitch black, and the screen of the mobile phone became the only light source.
Ruan Jiao closed her eyes, stretched out a hand from under the quilt, groped for a while, and finally grabbed the phone to her ear.
Manager Zhong Qin's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Tomorrow we will be filming the second issue of "Heartbeat Diary", have you packed your things?" According to the plan, the shooting location of the second issue is set to be in other provinces.
"I'll leave tomorrow morning, and I'll have time to clean up at night."
"Are you still sleeping?" Hearing Ruan Jiao's lazy voice, Zhong Qin's voice suddenly rose.
"Hurry up and pack up! In case the program team changes its mind temporarily and wants to take a shot before departure, you can also take the opportunity to brush up the character design of 'Little Home Expert'." It's not like the program team has never done such a thing before. She has to guard against it first.
Ruan Jiao got under the quilt with a lazy voice.
"Little Celery, can you help me recruit a life assistant?" Knowing that her life skills are zero, you still ask her to set up home settings?
It is more reliable to hire a life assistant.
"Life assistant?" Zhong Qin sneered, "Of course."
"Really? That's great!" Unexpectedly, Zhong Qin agreed directly, and Ruan Jiao didn't notice her tone at all.
"I don't ask much, as long as she can help me tidy up the house, clean up, arrange clothes... well, and occasionally cook or something, that's fine."
In this way, when she invites Teacher Yan to play in the future, she won't have to be as embarrassing as last time.
"That's all?" Zhong Qin seemed to be more talkative than usual today.
"Well, that's all."
"Ruan Jiao," Zhong Qin's voice sounded like gnashing of teeth, "Are you still awake?"
"Ah?" Isn't she already awake?
"Do I need to remind you that you can't even pay the rent?" The phone roared loudly, "If you can't get any more jobs, you can go drink the Northwest Wind! Get a living assistant? It's a good idea! "
"I know, I know," Ruan Jiao covered her ears, and slowly moved the phone away from herself, "If you make money next month, I will give you a raise immediately!"
With Yan Ke as the big backstage, she has received many announcements in the past half month.
The album is also being produced intensively, and it will be launched in another month, and it is expected that there will be a large amount of income by then.
However, although she earns a lot, she also spends a lot.Ruan Jiao has just left the original company, whether it is opening a personal studio, or recruiting publicity and planning personnel, it will require a lot of expenses.
No wonder Zhong Qin was in such a hurry.
"call……"
Ruan Jiao exhaled, sat up from the bed, leaned against the pillow, and grabbed her hair.
The approval of the patent application came out last week.
All she has to do now is one word—wait.She didn't want to bother Yan Ke anymore, and she didn't have time to contact the company, so she could only wait for a discerning industry leader to come and discuss cooperation with her.
……
Ruan Jiao was so absorbed in her thoughts that the doorbell rang twice before she noticed it.
"Who is it?" She slowly got up and yawned as she walked towards the door.
Could it be Zhong Qin who came here to train people?Doesn't she have a key?
Ruan Jiao opened the door because
Clingy and mischievous, but always able to hit her heart.
"Hey, don't walk behind me next time." Once the first sentence of comforting words was uttered, it was very natural and blurted out afterwards.
"Yeah, it won't happen in the future, Teacher Yan, remember to remind me!" Ruan Jiao nodded desperately.
Luo Yilin, who was packing two meals and walking this way: ...
Boss, are you getting too into the drama?
The show is already off, boss, pay attention to your image in the company, hey!
Didn't you see the few people who were just about to leave the cafeteria, they were completely stunned!
Luo Yilin, the gold-medal assistant who was tired, took a deep breath, covered her shock and complaints, walked over indifferently, and put down the dinner plate.
She is going to make another meal and calm down.
……
on the table.
Ruan Jiao stared at the three plates of vegetable salads without any sauce, with a tangled expression on her face.
After finally returning to the embrace of the eight major cuisines, do we have to live in the United States again and eat grass every day?
"Let me make another copy for you." Yan Ke said.
"Teacher Yan, are the cafeterias full of these dishes?" The staff of Shixin Entertainment are too pitiful, don't they even have the right to eat meat?
"Of course not." Yan Ke chuckled, "Do you have any taboos? I'll make another copy for you."
Luo Yilin who was next to her immediately stood up, "Let me come, boss."
"No need."*2
"Thank you, Sister Yilin, I'll go and choose the dishes myself." Ruan Jiao was a little embarrassed, rubbing her nose and explaining, "I didn't have breakfast today, I want to have some dinner at noon."
Luo Yilin who is used to eating salads: Our definition of dinner is a bit different :)
Ruan Jiao got up, said NO to the colorful vegetables in front of her heart, and prayed that the cafeteria of Shixin Entertainment would have a normal lunch.
Yan Ke got up and took her to the Chinese dining area to choose dishes.
Luo Yilin: ...
Isn't she an assistant?How do you feel like a light bulb?
This must be her illusion...
"Delicious!" After choosing lunch again, Ruan Jiao praised her without hesitation after taking the first bite.
"The chef of Shixin Entertainment is so pitiful!" She sighed after eating a sweet and sour short rib.
Yan Ke & Luo Yilin:? ? ?
"Such a good cooking skill, but no one appreciates it. The chefs must be very sad."
"It's a pity that the delicacies made with heart every day are no match for a few lettuce leaves with no cooking skills."
Yan Ke & Luo Yilin: ...You are right.
"Teacher Yan, sister Yilin, don't you want to try it?" Ruan Jiao pointed to the small ribs on the plate. They were shiny and steaming hot, and there was a hint of sweet and sour fragrance wafting out.
Ruan Jiao took small bites and gnawed earnestly, eating with relish, with a satisfied expression on her face, which made people feel that her index finger was twitching when she saw it.
Yan Ke picked up the fork, put a piece into his mouth, and nodded in agreement after eating.
"The standard of the company's chefs is really good."
Luo Yilin: The lettuce in front of me is tasteless.
Just when Luo Yilin was at war with man and was considering whether to be a traitor to the Sala Party, the voices of several Sala Party members came from behind.
"It seems that we are late again, is there only a heat bomb left?"
"Ah? No! Then I won't eat."
"What's the point of lunch without lettuce!"
"That's right, it's better not to eat."
Ruan Jiao, who was disgusted by the food on the plate because she was facing several people: ...
What, lunch without lettuce is interesting!
It may be that the disapproval on Ruan Jiao's face was too obvious. Among them, a girl with slightly dark skin suddenly made a sound of surprise.
"Ruan Jiao?" She showed her big white teeth in a smile, "Did you come to Shixin too? When did it happen?"
"Uh... today."
"Great, I haven't seen you for a long time, let's go to dance practice together later."
"Then what," Ruan Jiao smiled awkwardly, "I just came to see it." She couldn't reveal the fact that she came here for dinner.
"Are you still in the stage of negotiating the contract?" The girl looked clear, "Our company is very good. Although Mr. Yan is a bit cold, he is very considerate of the company's artists."
She waved to the people next to her and sat down next to Ruan Jiao.
"Why don't you just sign with our company! Boss Yan..."
"Yan... President Yan?!!"
The girl choked suddenly, and looked at the person opposite Ruan Jiao in horror, with disbelief written all over her face.
She just... didn't say anything bad about Mr. Yan...
"Friend?" Yan Ke nodded to her, and turned his gaze to Ruan Jiao.
"Well, we used to be trainees of Starlight Entertainment."
If her guess is correct, the European and American beauty in front of her should be the "Black Swan", one of the original owner's two friends mentioned in the book.
"It's just right, I have a meeting later." Yan Ke wiped the corners of his lips, "Why don't you let your friend take you to play in the company for a while? I'll send you back when I'm done here."
"Okay, thank you, Teacher Yan." With other people present, Ruan Jiao was too embarrassed to reveal her true nature, which made it difficult for Yan Ke.
……
Five o'clock in the afternoon, Yan Ke's office.
"Tsk, you're really looking for trouble for me!" The visitor had a full beard and leaned on the sofa with his legs crossed.
"A theme song, just a supporting role, uncle can't make the decision, right?"
"It's one thing to be in charge, but it's another thing to cast a cast. It's because I am in charge that I have to be strict." The producer, director and screenwriter are all himself, and Yan Ke's aggressive method is useless to him .
"Ruan Jiao's singing skills, you have praised before, singing the theme song is no problem. As for the supporting role, didn't you say that you only need to be in charge of Meimeimei?"
"Stop, stop!" Shi An made a pause gesture.
"I know you have a high opinion of Ruan Jiao, but you don't have to put it on me. Isn't this cheating your uncle? You can find an unimportant supporting role for her. As for the theme song, I still want to get the best soundtrack ,no."
Yan Ke was silent.
After a while, she opened the door, "Since you have doubts about Ruan Jiao's singing skills, it just so happens that Ruan Jiao is also in the company now, let's go and try it out?"
"...All right," Shi An said helplessly, "If it's not suitable later, don't say that uncle doesn't give you face."
What singing skills can an idol singer have?
He just boasted casually at that time, but who knew that Yan Ke not only took it seriously, but also insisted on using this to blackmail him, and she would not participate in the show unless he was given an interview opportunity.
It seemed that he had to think carefully about how to be more tactful in refusing later.
Chapter 14
"Tsk, idol!"
Shi An has already made up his mind, no matter how intimidating Yan Ke is, he will resolutely refuse.
Idol, isn't it just like that, basically synonymous with good looks and lack of strength.
In the circle, most of the directors invite traffic idols to play leading roles for investment or favor, but in the end, they all lose both box office and word of mouth.
When he was Anqin, he had been working diligently on filming for more than [-] years, and he did not rely on such illusory things as traffic.
Besides, acting and singing are completely different industries.
An actor with qualified appearance, no matter how poor his acting skills are, as long as he has a famous director and teacher willing to train|teach him and train for a year or two, he can still look good in the film.
Among other things, the actors who debuted through him, whether they are "girls of the time" or "boys of the time", are all praised by the industry.
That's why, he would agree to let Ruan Jiao play a supporting role - he had already prepared that the other party had no acting skills and needed long-term guidance, so he just wanted to show off Yan Ke's face.
However, he didn't intend to back down on the theme song of the movie.
Yes, he did praise Ruan Jiao for her beautiful singing.
However, this is an evaluation based on the identity of a girl idol.
He is not a professional musician, but he also listened to the mouthwatering songs that Ruan Jiao sang in the talent competition—at most, he scored 70 points.If you add Ruan Jiao's beauty value, you can score between 80 and 90 points.
Of course, except for the solo song in the finals, it was the only song in the entire audition that could score close to 100 points.
It's a pity that it doesn't match the style of his movies...
"Teacher Yan, what do you think of Ruan Jiao's voice?" He looked at the person next to him.
Yan Ke is used to her uncle's intermittent convulsions, and he has long been used to the fact that he imitates fans and calls himself Teacher Yan.
She looked indifferent.
I thought about what I wanted to say, but before I knew it, I lost my usual coolness.
"Ruan Jiao's voice is clean and ethereal, but when singing love songs, it is cute and sweet, and it is very malleable."
In fact, if she hadn't investigated Ruan Jiao's performance as a trainee, she wouldn't have recommended her directly to Shi An—the trainee department of Starlight Entertainment, who spoke very highly of Ruan Jiao's singing and dancing skills.
"Plasticity?" Shi An gave a "tsk", "How many songs has she sung on stage?"
"..." She investigated Ruan Jiao privately, but she seemed to have forgotten to tell Shi An.
Shi An continued on his own: "The tone of my film, as you know, follows the path of violent aesthetics."
"En." Yan Ke remained silent, waiting for Shi An to continue.
"So, I prefer to invite male singers to sing the theme song." Ruan Jiao's voice, in his opinion, was still too soft.
After thinking about it, he decided to vaccinate his niece first.
"How about, if she doesn't perform well later, I'll recommend her to Old Tang? He's making a romance movie recently."
"uncle……"
"Okay, okay, listen to it later, and then make a decision."
Anyway, he had already figured out how to refuse.
……
10 minute later.
Shi An took out a cigarette and stood at the door of the training room with a serious expression, without saying a word.
But Yan Ke noticed that Shi An's hand holding the cigarette trembled slightly.
"Huh..." Shi An exhaled, closed his eyes, and didn't know what he was thinking.
Many years later, when the reporter asked Shi An how he discovered Ruan Jiao, an all-round star, Shi An still remembered this afternoon.
"Some people are born superstars."
Just like now, even in a small singing room, even if Ruan Jiao's only accompaniment instrument is a guitar in her hand, the way she sings softly with her eyes downcast is still touching.
The singing is lonely and helpless, but it implies firmness and care, and slowly expresses the warning and concern for the girl who is new to the world, which is very heartwarming.
Ruan Jiao's originally ethereal voice was heartbreaking at this moment.
"Ooh, baby, baby, it`swildworld
I`ll always remember you like a child, girl"
"It's her. This is the voice of my heroine when she sent her sweetheart away on the eve of revenge." Shi An stubbed out the cigarette and strode into the karaoke room.
"Ruan Jiao, right?"
"Ah?" Ruan Jiao looked puzzled, turned her head, saw Yan Ke, and immediately smiled like a flower.
"Teacher Yan, have you finished the meeting?" After speaking, she stood up and walked to Yan Ke's side in two or three steps.
The curvature of the corners of her mouth was just right, and the dimples that appeared in her smile made her whole face vivid and bright.
It is a hundred times sweeter than laughing on stage.
Shi'an: Go to the fucking loneliness and helplessness, go to the fucking heartbreak!
Isn't this still the sweet girl idol!
"This is Director Shi An," Yan Ke explained to her, "He just came to the company, and he came to listen to your singing skills."
"Oh, hello, director." Ruan Jiao smiled commercially, but she couldn't see the excitement that she should have when meeting an international director.
Shi An didn't mind either: "Well, Teacher Yan recommended you to sing the theme song of my next movie, I think it's okay."
"Really? Thank you, Teacher Yan!" Ruan Jiao immediately raised her head and grinned at Yan Ke.
Shi An: Who is the director?
Fortunately, Shi An is also an informal person, he doesn't exchange pleasantries, and goes straight to the point.
"Ruan Jiao, besides this song, do you have any songs with a similar genre?"
"Ah?" Ruan Jiao reacted for two seconds, realizing that he had misunderstood, "Shi Dao, this song is not original by me."
"Not your original?"
"Correct."
"Who wrote that?"
"Cat Stevens."
"Who?" Shi An's voice was a step higher than before.
"Cat Stevens," Ruan repeated, "an English folk-rock singer."
Shi An's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
He has listened to English songs for so many years, country rock pop rap all over the place, but he has never heard of this name.
If this person named Cat Stevens has such a level of composition and lyrics, how can he be so unknown?
He looked at Yan Ke and frowned slightly: "Have you heard this song before?"
Yan Ke: "No."
Shi An turned to Ruan Jiao: "Do you have the singer's contact information?"
"……No."
"It's okay, this song is more suitable for an episode. If it's the theme song, I'll let you sing it then." He thought Ruan Jiao was hiding something.
"..." Ruan Jiao understood what he meant, but couldn't explain it to him.
"Otherwise, invite your friend to come to Huaxia and ask Mr. Yan to help him release an album. With his talent, it would be too wasteful to be an unknown street singer." Shi An had already imagined the other party's background , I feel nothing more than being underappreciated.
"Uh..." Ruan Jiao bit the bullet and refused, "It's too far away, he can't come"
"It doesn't matter!" Shi An waved his hand, "Yan Ke paid for the air ticket and accommodation, just ask him to come directly."
Yan Ke: It's none of my business...
Ruan Jiao was embarrassed, with a delicate expression: "Shi Dao, it's not that I'm hiding something, but...he really can't come." If you want to come, you can't unless you take the space-time shuttle.
Shi An was taken aback: "Is he dead?"
"Yeah." Although she is still alive and well on Earth, but in this world, if she doesn't say that, she can't find any other explanation.
Did you tell Shi An that this person was not born yet?
In the karaoke room, there was a moment of silence.
"Okay, then I'll think about it." Shi An rubbed his chin, as if planning something, "I'll talk to you about the theme song of the movie in a few days."
After speaking, without saying goodbye, he waved his hand and left.
Ruan Jiao: ...
After the unrelated people left, Ruan Jiao turned her head: "Mr. Yan, shall we go have dinner?"
"I'm afraid not today, I have something to do."
"That's it..." Ruan Jiao lowered her head.
Yan Ke walked out the door: "Let's go, I'll take you back, and I'll treat you to dinner after I'm done with this business."
"Good teacher Yan!" Ruan Jiao immediately followed, her face was full of frustration just now, and the cloudy and clear in an instant.
……
Half an hour later, at the door of Ruan Jiao's house.
The atmosphere is awkward.
Ruan Jiao, who warmly invited Yan Ke into the house just a moment ago, is holding the key as still as a mountain at the moment.
"Teacher Yan..." Her face was full of remorse and apprehension, "Why don't you come again next time?"
She just suddenly remembered that when she left this morning, she was trying on clothes in the living room.The current situation at home is probably similar to that of a kennel.
"Huh?" Looking at her embarrassed face, Yan Ke raised his eyebrows.
"Mr. Yan, don't think too much!" Ruan Jiao was worried that she would be angry, her brain was running at high speed, and she hurriedly said, "Today's almanac said that it is not suitable to see guests, and I only remembered it now."
"Oh~" Yan Ke looked at her meaningfully.
"Okay, then I'll go first, goodbye." Yan Ke turned around with a graceful posture.
"Teacher Yan!" Ruan Jiao's voice sounded very anxious.
"What's wrong?" Yan Ke glanced at the hem of his clothes being pulled, and pressed the corner of his mouth, "What else did Huang Li say?"
"Huangli... Huangli said..." She couldn't make it up.
Ruan Jiao wanted to shoot herself who was talking nonsense just now: "Mr. Yan, can you wait for me for 3 minutes!"
She turned around and inserted the key into the lock, speaking quickly, and looked at Yan Ke pleadingly.
"Just 3 minutes, Teacher Yan! I'll open the door for you in 3 minutes!"
After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Yan Ke to answer.
With a sound of "Peng", the door closed.
Yan Ke, who was standing outside the door, looked at the ordinary metal door, and a smile gradually appeared in his eyes.
"Teacher Yan, come in!" A few minutes later, Ruan Jiao opened the door.
There was a thin layer of sweat on her reddish face, and a few unruly strands of hair stuck to her cheeks and forehead messily.
Hearing her panting sound more clearly than usual, Yan Ke remained calm and quietly bent the corners of his eyes.
Leading Yan Ke to sit down in the living room, Ruan Jiao turned around and went into the kitchen, grabbed the refrigerator, and poked her head into the living room.
"Ms. Yan, I only have coffee and milk here, can I drink milk?"
"can."
"Then Mr. Yan, sit down for a while, and you'll be fine soon."
"it is good."
The little furry head went back to the kitchen in an instant.
After a while, Ruan Jiao handed a cup of warm milk to Yan Ke.
"Is it delicious, Teacher Yan? This is my favorite milk." When she was studying, she used to drink it every day in order to grow taller, but it became a habit after drinking. After work, she still has a glass of milk every day.
Fortunately, on the second day in this world, she found the same brand of milk in the imported supermarket.
"It's delicious." Yan Ke smiled lightly.
Ruan Jiao narrowed her eyes with a smile, ran into the kitchen, and came out with a glass bottle in her hand.
"Teacher Yan!" She handed the milk to Yan Ke—for a foodie, the greatest happiness is of course sharing the food she likes with the person she likes.
Yan Ke took the bottle, and the person across from him smiled again, causing her to squint slightly.
Yan Ke didn't laugh until he left Ruan Jiao and got into the car.
"Sure enough, it's a kid..." She hasn't drunk milk for many years.
After fastening the seat belt, she didn't start the car immediately, but picked up the bottle of milk that was not so cold, and was slightly lost in thought.
After a while, she opened the bottle cap, put it under the tip of her nose and smelled it.
A faint milky fragrance.
"So it's not milk-flavored perfume." She chuckled.
This scent...
It's like someone's smell when they fall into her arms.
Chapter 15
Shixin Entertainment Headquarters.
"Xiao Hei, what's the name of this producer?" Ruan Jiao asked the person next to her with a biscuit in her mouth.
"Can you stop calling me Xiao Hei..." Beside her, the beautiful girl with slightly dark skin was speechless.
"Of course, Black Swan?"
"..." The beautiful girl rolled her eyes at her.
With such a shameful nickname, it's fine for her fans to shout at her, but if she really wanted to be called that in her life, she would be ashamed.
"Can't you just call me by my name?" Ruan Jiao said angrily as she brought over the biscuit in Ruan Jiao's hand.
"No." Ruan Jiao refused very simply.
She really couldn't - because she had long forgotten the name of the beautiful girl in front of her, and only remembered her two nicknames in the book.
"Forget it, let's call it Xiao Hei." The beautiful girl snapped a piece of biscuit and decided to give up struggling.
"It's great that it's so early. In fact, the name Xiao Hei is very nice, and it has a lot of personality!"
Ruan Jiao continued the previous topic: "You haven't said yet, who is the producer of our album?"
"Time desert."
"Stone mill? Douhua?" This name really has personality.
"..."
Xiao Hei: Why do I suddenly have the illusion that I am lucky to be called Xiao Hei?
"Shi Mo, Shi An."
Ruan Jiao asked curiously: "These two people, can't they be relatives?" Otherwise, it would be too coincidental.
"They're cousins." Xiao Hei gave her a science introduction, "Not only the two of them, but the rest of the Shi family have also made achievements in various fields in the literary and art circles."
"So powerful? Mo's level was very high back then?"
"Of course, Shi Mo has always had a good eye for choosing songs, and the production level is also very guaranteed." Xiao Hei was both excited and nervous.
"I really want to know quickly what style our album will be." Shi Mo came to find the two today, with the purpose of helping them choose songs and determine the style of the album.
The two talked and laughed, and waited for Shi Mo's arrival in the conference room.
"Hello, Shi Mo." The visitor was tall and strong, and looked very intimidating.
"Hello." Ruan Jiao and Xiao Hei stood up and introduced themselves.
"I've listened to your song." He looked at Ruan Jiao, not hiding his admiration in his eyes, "To be honest, it's really a pleasant torture to choose ten songs from so many masterpieces."
He tossed them a document.
"Both of you are releasing an EP for the first time, so you probably don't have much experience. Here is my plan for your album. You can take a look."
The plan is very detailed, including the theme, song selection, album cover, and all other related matters that Shi Mo can think of.
After reading it, Xiao Hei looked excited, obviously satisfied with Shi Mo's plan.
As for Ruan Jiao?
"Shi... Teacher, this theme doesn't suit me, does it?" The arrangement for her turned out to be the theme of love.
"Just call me Old Shi." Shi Mo crossed his hands, his tone undeniable, "Your voice is sweet and delicate, very suitable for these songs."
"Among the dozens of songs, there are others that are more suitable for me." She obviously gave so many classic songs, why did she have to choose these five?
"The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Sing some cheerful songs, which are more appropriate and pleasing." Shi Mo knows the record market very well.
"Besides, you are only 20 years old. Singing some love songs is not only in line with your personality, but also the audience likes it."
Ruan Jiao: ...I go back now, is there still time for Zhong Qin to help me change my profile?
"However, among these five songs, three of them are my originals." The first time I tried the water, I just used the originals directly. Are you really not afraid of overturning?
Shi Mo laughed, as if he knew her worry.
"I haven't had time to talk about it yet. If you can write more songs of this genre, I guarantee you will be popular until you are at least 30 years old." So Ruan Jiao is not worried about her level at all.
While talking, he thought of Ruan Jiao's other original songs, and his expression immediately became very subtle.
"I've also listened to your other original songs. It's not bad, but it doesn't fit your current age and position. If you really want to sing songs that lament the impermanence of life and the illusion of life, come to me after you are 30 years old. .”
Ruan Jiao had nothing to say.
In the past six months, apart from running announcements, filming commercials, and variety shows, she just stayed at home writing and practicing songs.
After finally writing a few satisfactory songs, she wanted to dream of becoming a queen by vocal, but Shi Mo only chose a few of the simplest ones, and she had no place to show off her skills.
Seeing the stalemate between the two, Xiao Hei pushed Ruan Jiao's arm.
"I think the song "Taste of Oranges" is very nice, I like it very much. If the image doesn't match, I would like to change the album with you."
"Listen to me, that's right!" Shi Mo raised Erlang's legs and made a direct nod.
"That's it. Ruan Jiao's EP is about love. From the heartbeat of "Orange Smell", to the secret love of "Thank you, I'm sorry", to the ambiguity of "Fingertips", until the final confession and official Together, it just happens to be a complete story loop."
He put away the plans in the hands of the two and beckoned them to follow.
"Come on, try recording two songs today."
"Are you going to the recording studio now?" The two were unprepared.
"Time is tight and we're trying to get the album done by the New Year."
As he spoke, Shi Mo changed into a complaining tone again.
"What about your boss? Since you bought the record company, why don't you move it to the headquarters? Otherwise, if you want to record a song, you have to run back and forth, which is very troublesome."
Xiao Hei: Pretend not to hear what you are talking about.jpg
Ruan Jiao: I'm just a guest, I don't know anything.
Although Yan Ke hooked her up with Shi Mo, Ruan Jiao was still an artist acting in her own name from a legal point of view.
Ruan Jiao still remembered how surprised Yan Ke was when she handed those songs from the previous world to Yan Ke.
"Why is it called 'Supporting Education'?" At that time, Teacher Yan looked at the song folder with a rare expression of curiosity.
"literal meaning."
Ruan Jiao, who pretended to be 13, could only sigh in her heart: "This plane—'I'm not targeting anyone, I mean, everyone here is rubbish.'"
So, it's not teaching.
……
Recording went well.
After a week, all five of Xiao Hei's songs were recorded.
Ruan Jiao also has four songs, which passed Shi Mo's review early, except for the last song "Happy Together".
"Ruan Jiao..." Shi Mo had lost his temper after being tortured by her.
Ruan Jiao's singing skills are online, and her skills are in place. It stands to reason that she should have recorded faster than Xiao Hei, but when she recorded the last song, she always felt that something was missing.
The ending of the whole album should be a happy ending love, but Ruan Jiao has more than enough skills, but she always falls short emotionally.
"Ruan Jiao, a good singer can't just be good at singing her own songs." Shi Mo guessed that Ruan Jiao couldn't sing the last song well because it wasn't her original creation.
"I understand." Ruan Jiao herself was also distressed, this song couldn't sing the desired effect no matter what.
"Just understand." Shi Mo pondered, "Why don't you write a song with a similar theme?"
"Can't write..."
"Can't write?" Shi Mo had an expression of "you're kidding me", "Songs of this style shouldn't be difficult to write." Ruan Jiao's other songs were much more complicated than this one.
"The feelings are not in place, I really can't write..." Ruan Jiao took off the earphones without further explanation.
"When I'm old, I adjust for 10 minutes and do it again later."
"Okay, then I'll let Yan Ke come in first, and you can adjust for a while."
"Teacher Yan is here?!" Ruan Jiao paused, her eyes lit up.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Ke pushed the door open and entered.
"How is the recording, is it going well?" She handed the coffee in her hand to Shi Mo.
"It's okay, there's only one last song left." Shi Mo grumbled.
Yan Ke turned to Ruan Jiao who was coming, and handed her another cup.
Ruan Jiao took the warm paper cup and took a sip, her eyes immediately turned into moons: "It's milk!"
"Well," Yan Ke smiled slightly, "The coffee shop doesn't have the brand you like, so let's drink this one first."
"Thank you, Teacher Yan!"
Just to put it bluntly, she remembered that she never told Teacher Yan what kind of coffee she likes to drink, how could Teacher Yan know?
It turned out that what was brought to her was not coffee, but milk.
Ruan Jiao was secretly delighted. Teacher Yan remembered her preferences in her heart.
Holding the paper cup, she sipped the milk in small sips, looking up at Yan Ke from time to time.
Yan Ke and Shi Mo were exchanging greetings, felt her gaze, and bent their lips towards her sideways.
Ruan Jiao immediately frowned and smiled deeply.
After the milk was finished, Ruan Jiao also re-entered the recording studio.
In the control room separated from the recording studio by only one side of transparent glass, Yan Ke did not leave.
She was still talking with Shi Mo, her expression was indifferent, she was the cold and distant Yan Ke in the company.
Ruan Jiao's eyes stopped on her involuntarily.
The light cast a layer of frost on Yan Ke Ruxue's skin, making the coolness around her even more compelling.
In addition to the coldness, it is graceful and graceful, like a frightened bird, like a light cloud coming out of Xiu.
It is no wonder that such a peerless beauty will become a flower of Gaoling.
"Ruan Jiao, is it okay?" Shi Mo's voice came through the earphones.
"Okay."
Ruan Jiao took a deep breath and sang the song "Happy Together" that should have been filled with happiness and joy again.
"Do it again." Shi Mo gave the instruction again without emotion.
"it is good."
Do it again, still not working.
Without Shi Mo's reminder, Ruan Jiao can feel the real-time feedback from the earphones to the voice in her ears. There is no such thing as the beauty and excitement when two lovers overcome all difficulties and finally get together.
Exhaling, she closed her eyes and covered her face with her palms.
What to do, she can't sing such emotions.
Perhaps, she was too confident, and she couldn't even perform songs of this level well.
For a moment, Ruan Jiao had an impulse—she really wanted to say forget it.
"Ruan Jiao."
There was a gentle voice in the coolness, coming from the earphones.
"Take your time, Ruan Jiao, you can do it."
Ruan Jiao opened her eyes, and what she saw was a pair of watery eyes that were gentle yet firm, and an encouraging and comforting smile.
"Peng!"
In the quiet recording studio, Ruan Jiao heard the voice from her chest, which was hitting her heart passionately and agitatedly.
"When I was old," she said with a smile, "I will do it again."
This time, she looked at Yan Ke and sang the first line of the song.
"Imagine me & you, Ido."
……
Imagine is a beautiful word.
When the four eyes meet, it is the time to understand; when Teacher Yan smiles, it is the time when her heart beats.
Today's heartbeat is probably... the heartbeat of milk flavor.
Chapter 16
In the bedroom, it was pitch black, and the screen of the mobile phone became the only light source.
Ruan Jiao closed her eyes, stretched out a hand from under the quilt, groped for a while, and finally grabbed the phone to her ear.
Manager Zhong Qin's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Tomorrow we will be filming the second issue of "Heartbeat Diary", have you packed your things?" According to the plan, the shooting location of the second issue is set to be in other provinces.
"I'll leave tomorrow morning, and I'll have time to clean up at night."
"Are you still sleeping?" Hearing Ruan Jiao's lazy voice, Zhong Qin's voice suddenly rose.
"Hurry up and pack up! In case the program team changes its mind temporarily and wants to take a shot before departure, you can also take the opportunity to brush up the character design of 'Little Home Expert'." It's not like the program team has never done such a thing before. She has to guard against it first.
Ruan Jiao got under the quilt with a lazy voice.
"Little Celery, can you help me recruit a life assistant?" Knowing that her life skills are zero, you still ask her to set up home settings?
It is more reliable to hire a life assistant.
"Life assistant?" Zhong Qin sneered, "Of course."
"Really? That's great!" Unexpectedly, Zhong Qin agreed directly, and Ruan Jiao didn't notice her tone at all.
"I don't ask much, as long as she can help me tidy up the house, clean up, arrange clothes... well, and occasionally cook or something, that's fine."
In this way, when she invites Teacher Yan to play in the future, she won't have to be as embarrassing as last time.
"That's all?" Zhong Qin seemed to be more talkative than usual today.
"Well, that's all."
"Ruan Jiao," Zhong Qin's voice sounded like gnashing of teeth, "Are you still awake?"
"Ah?" Isn't she already awake?
"Do I need to remind you that you can't even pay the rent?" The phone roared loudly, "If you can't get any more jobs, you can go drink the Northwest Wind! Get a living assistant? It's a good idea! "
"I know, I know," Ruan Jiao covered her ears, and slowly moved the phone away from herself, "If you make money next month, I will give you a raise immediately!"
With Yan Ke as the big backstage, she has received many announcements in the past half month.
The album is also being produced intensively, and it will be launched in another month, and it is expected that there will be a large amount of income by then.
However, although she earns a lot, she also spends a lot.Ruan Jiao has just left the original company, whether it is opening a personal studio, or recruiting publicity and planning personnel, it will require a lot of expenses.
No wonder Zhong Qin was in such a hurry.
"call……"
Ruan Jiao exhaled, sat up from the bed, leaned against the pillow, and grabbed her hair.
The approval of the patent application came out last week.
All she has to do now is one word—wait.She didn't want to bother Yan Ke anymore, and she didn't have time to contact the company, so she could only wait for a discerning industry leader to come and discuss cooperation with her.
……
Ruan Jiao was so absorbed in her thoughts that the doorbell rang twice before she noticed it.
"Who is it?" She slowly got up and yawned as she walked towards the door.
Could it be Zhong Qin who came here to train people?Doesn't she have a key?
Ruan Jiao opened the door because
