Chapter 5 Stranger

Now Chen Zui's life is much easier, it is not too much to say that it is the best life he has had in recent years.

When he was young, he was more rebellious than Chen, and his grades were not good.Chen Hao'ai is a good learner and well-behaved, so she is naturally preferred by her parents.

However, their brothers' relationship was not affected by their parents' partiality, because Chen Hao always favored him.Parents secretly gave Chen Hao things and pocket money, and Chen Hao secretly gave them to Chen Zui after changing hands. When he was beaten and scolded, Chen Hao cried harder than him.

Chen Zui's sexuality was awakened early, and he liked a boy in the sixth grade. He blocked him like a hooligan and insisted on being her boyfriend.

But this did not teach him how to hide himself, but it became the fuse of the outbreak of family conflicts.His parents began to quarrel, and sometimes even fought violently. The reason for their discord was not his apostasy, but the conflicts and grievances accumulated in various lives.

When he was just in junior high school, his father cheated, and his parents divorced right after.Their brothers all followed their mother, and his father somehow got a sum of money to pay the two of them in one lump sum, and disappeared from the world.

He started to get in touch with music in high school. Since then, he found himself in music, met some friends, and began to slowly come out of the haze of himself and his family.

But when Chen Hao was 14 years old, he suffered from chronic renal failure.This disease will not be fatal immediately, but it requires long-term drug and dialysis treatment. Most of the regular treatment can maintain the life expectancy of more than ten years, and more effective treatment with better quality of life requires kidney transplantation.Either way, huge costs are required.

Chen Hao’s illness hung over the family’s head like a sword of Damocles. Two years later, when her mother had spent all the money in the family and faced a bunch of debtors who had nothing to repay, Finally, he couldn't bear to disappear from his two lives, but he would send some money to his card from time to time.

Her disappearance is not without benefits, at least the borrower is not their brother, so they can confidently call the police when facing creditors.Chen couldn't blame her the most, he knew his mother had tried her best.

The family's old house was also transferred to Chen Zui's name. The 18-year-old Chen Zui immediately decided to sell the house and continue to treat Chen Hao's illness.

At that time, he had composed several songs and released them on the Internet, and he had a little fame.An agent surnamed Song approached him and affirmed his creative talent, but suggested that he be a singer for a singer, but Chen Zui firmly refused.

Chen Mo was still young, and he didn't have a clear grasp and plan for life. Soon the old house was sold and the money was spent. When he had nowhere to go, he turned around and accepted Manager Song's proposal.

It wasn't until he saw the songs he wrote on the charts of major music websites that he knew that his songs were used by He Zhang.

When he knew this, He Zhang had become "one of the most influential pop rock singers in China today", "pop music ghost", "leading figure of the new generation of singers"...

In the second year of his debut, He Zhang dominated the charts for [-] consecutive weeks with the two songs written by Chen Zuo, and became the champion of the new songs chart that year.In the third year, he became the youngest winner of the Best Singer Award and held a concert with tens of thousands of people.The album of the same name "Lin Shen Sees the Camel" won the sales champion for two consecutive years. There were twelve songs in that album, five of which were written by Chen Zui, including this "Lin Shen Sees the Camel".

At first, Chen Zui was very happy about this. Although these achievements were not in his name, he knew that his music could be recognized by the public. It was mainly sold to He Zhang's agent, and the income was not much. In the first two years, he wrote it desperately to make a living.

Although Song Zhaowen later increased his remuneration, it was nothing compared to the benefits he received.

Song Zhaowen told him very clearly that his songs can only emit so much energy in the hands of He Zhang, because the resources possessed by He Zhang are the most unmatched by Chen. If Chen Zuo relies on himself, 90.00% of them will be buried up.Therefore, Chen should be content, write songs well, and the company will not treat him badly.

It's not that Chen doesn't understand this truth, it's just that he finds it boring.

The contract was signed for five years, and it is already the last year of the contract.All the songs he wrote in the past four years were given to He Zhang. He can't sing in public, and he can't let anyone know that those songs were written by him. This frustration has almost drained his enthusiasm for music.

Fortunately, he met Lin Jianqing. Apart from the fact that he had used his affection for Lin Jianqing, the money he got from Lin Jianqing actually helped him a lot.His younger brother's illness, the newly bought house, and the expiration of his contract, no matter whether his talent is buried or not, he will never be a gunman again.

The next day, Song Zhaowen called Chen Zui to the company.

Chen most likely knew what was going on. He hadn't produced a work for more than half a year. It wasn't because he didn't want to write, but because he felt wrong. Even if it was a song for others to sing, he didn't want to make some rubbish.

It is normal for a singer-songwriter to have no inspiration and status, but as a popular singer, He Zhang must produce works if he wants to maintain his popularity and momentum.

In the past year, He Zhang only released one single, and the response was mediocre. Many people said that he was exhausted.Fans also criticized him for participating in some messy shows and bad movies in order to make money, not concentrating on music, and wasting his talent and advantages.

Now He Zhang is going to release another album to restore his reputation.There are eight songs in the album, but none of them can be the main title.

Song Zhaowen exchanged pleasantries with Chen Zui for a while before turning to the main topic: "Xiao Chen, how are you doing recently?"

Chen Zui bowed his head: "It's very average, there's no good song for now."

Song Zhaowen patted him on the shoulder: "If you have a semi-finished product or any idea, you can bring it to the company for discussion. Waiting for inspiration is worse than looking for it. Once a few musicians communicate, maybe a spark will be sparked."

Chen Zui nodded.

In fact, he doesn't agree with Manager Song's view. This is the process of industrial production, and mature songs can indeed be made, but such songs lack soul.Chen is the best at composing, writing lyrics and arranging music. His songs are all self-contained and expressive, so they are moving enough.

Song Zhaowen asked again: "How is your brother?"

"same as usual."

"It's been five or six years, and if it drags on, it's easy to cause problems. I've found someone here to ask for you, and I've found a kidney expert. I can make an appointment when I have time."

"Brother Song, I..."

"Hey, money is not a problem. As long as Xiaozhang is still popular, he can still treat those of us who work for him badly, right?"

Chen Zui was a little embarrassed, but he didn't have too much trouble, and he said bravely: "Brother Song, thank you very much. But you also know about writing songs, and you can't write songs if you have to. But it’s not good enough, I dare not sing for Brother He.”

Song Zhaowen's face turned cold when he saw that his tricks of buying people's hearts were in vain.Just when he finished giving the sweet dates and was about to slap him, He Zhang came and opened the door without knocking, shouting impatiently, "Lin Jianqing is here."

Song Zhaowen quickly gave him a wink, indicating that there were other people in the room.

He Zhang's eyes fell on Chen Zui's face, and he raised one corner of his mouth and snorted softly: "It's you."

"Brother He."

"Don't, I can't afford to be your brother, you are the uncle raised by our company."

Chen Zui's face was extremely ugly. He knew that he could not be compared with He Zhang at all, but he also knew that He Zhang had always disliked him, and he was probably jealous.

When Chen felt most uncomfortable, he would also think about what kind of contradictory mood He Zhang would have when he sang his songs, saw those praises and received those awards and honors.

Song Zhaowen rounded things up and said, "Xiao Chen, go out and wait for me first, and I'll talk to you after I'm done here."

Chen Zui turned to go out, and when he opened the door, he saw Lin Jianqing who was wearing a dark blue suit at the door. He was holding an exquisite small box in one hand, and was about to knock on the door with the other.

Although he just heard He Zhang say that Lin Jianqing was coming, his heart skipped a beat, but when he opened the door and saw this person, his heart almost jumped out.

Chen Zui looked at Lin Jianqing in a daze, but Lin Jianqing turned slightly to one side and motioned him very politely to go out first, his eyes hardly resting on him.

From Lin Jianqing's attitude, he once again clearly realized that except for sex, the two of them had nothing to do with each other, they were complete strangers.

In fact, Chen admired Lin Jianqing the most. This person clearly divided his different emotions and needs, and played every role clearly, both in and out of the play, and never got confused.And he himself was in a mess.

Chen Zui smiled self-deprecatingly, that's how it is, so Lin Jianqing is the Best Actor, and he is a piece of trash who has failed.

He hesitated a little at the door, sniffing the smell of Lin Jianqing's perfume in the air, and heard him greet Song Zhaowen and He Zhang affectionately, a smile almost overflowed from his magnetic voice.And the small box in his hand seemed to be a watch, and he gave it to He Zhang to wish his new album a big hit in advance.
