Mr Prejudice

Guan Lan handed Zhuang Lin a sheet of music.

Zhuang Lin briefly glanced at the song called "Crossing the River": "What is this... Is this a song you wrote for me?"

Guan Lan: "I didn't write it. You read it first."

Zhuang Lin looked at it carefully, and then commented: "It's like the ending song of a TV series at eight o'clock."

Guan Lan: "You guessed it right, it's the ending song of the TV series."

Zhuang Lin frowned: "You want me to sing this?"

Guan Lan: ""Han Palace Autumn", you know. Li Yan and Huang Yue starred, and it will start broadcasting on three David TV next month. The cost of continuous filming and publicity is hundreds of millions. This is not a gimmick, it is a real investment. The producer has internally said that if the ratings of this drama are less than 5, it will be a failure, and the producer will be blamed. You can check, there are a few TV dramas that can break the ratings of 3."

Guan Lan: "Understood? This song, whoever sings it will be popular. The circle has already smashed its head."

Zhuang Lin: "Then let them snatch it."

Guan Lan: "Audit tomorrow afternoon, I'll cut in line for you, remember to come."

Zhuang Lin: "I won't give the ending song to Gongdouju's record."

Guan Lan: "I didn't discuss it with you. You have no right to decide on this matter."

Zhuang Lin: "Then I should have the right to vote, right?"

Guan Lan: "Okay, you, me, your manager, let's vote."

... Zhuang Lin was so depressed that he could use his toes to figure out whose side Qi Fei would be on.

Guan Lan: "Go back and practice hard, I will ask your agent to supervise you."

Zhuang Lin: "What about my album?"

Guan Lan: "You have to eat one bite at a time. Take down this song first."

Zhuang Lin: "Then I can release an album?"

Guan Lan: "Depending on the situation, there will be another single or EP, three to five songs, released online. Then you will go to two variety shows and run some announcements. It will be at least half a year later."

Zhuang Lin: "Why is it so troublesome?"

Guan Lan: "The times are different, and the era of a dedicated god has passed. You need people to be popular first, and to be familiar with the public, so as to achieve sustainable development. How many people do you see? You are an old man, and in the end you will be on a talent show with grassroots amateurs."

Zhuang Lin was reluctantly persuaded.

Before leaving, he asked Guan Lan: "Why are you so sure that I can take it down tomorrow? There won't be any inside story here, right?"

Guan Lan: "Why do I want to know about you? What benefits do I have?"

For a moment, Zhuang Lin thought that (the long-awaited) moment had finally come, that Guan Lan was finally going to make an improper request to him.

But Guan Lan's next words didn't develop in the direction Zhuang Lin imagined: "You said it too, but it's just the ending song of a Gongdou drama. If you even need my shady for this, then you should change careers while you are young."

The audition competition is very fierce, Guan Lan's words are not without arrogance.

However, Zhuang Lin is not a humble person.

Zhuang Lin: "That's right. Sing it and you won't die."

----------------------

The situation of the audition the next day was similar to what Guan Lan had expected.

As soon as Guan Lan got this song, she felt that Zhuang Lin sang it very well. From the timbre to the temperament, it perfectly matched. No one could sing better than him.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhuang Lin opened his voice, he only sang a few lines, and the silver bottle burst into water, and the director and screenwriter expressed that they didn't want to listen to other people's singing, and this was the person.

The problem is with the producers.

The producer just thinks that a female voice should be found, and he treats all male singers with an attitude of "I don't listen, I don't listen."He liked a former female singer named Hu Qianqian.

Hu Qianqian also sang well, but Guan Lan still seemed to be a bit inferior to Zhuang Lin.

For the TV drama crew, the producer is heaven, but the opinions of the director and screenwriter cannot be ignored, so the situation froze.

In the end, Guan Lan came out and said, we can record two versions, one with male vocals and one with female vocals.

At present there is no other way, the two parties have to take a step back and implement according to this plan.

The next day, Zhuang Lin and Hu Qianqian entered the studio to record songs.

This kind of TV drama ending song, no matter how big the production is, Guan Lan wouldn't have to watch it in person.Guan Lan stayed in the shed for a while, seeing that everything was in order, and then came out.

When he went out, he was blocked by Ren Xiaofei: "Mr. Guan, Mr. Yang told you to go over now."

This Mr. Yang is of course not Yang Peiqing, but the big boss of Tianlong, Yang Peining.

In order to distinguish the two within the company, Yang Peiqing is generally called "Little President Yang" in private.Moreover, Yang Peiqing is on the same level as Guan Lan. If you need to find him for something, you should at least call him in person.

Guan Lan's scalp tightened.

He has worked for many years, but being called out by his boss alone like this still feels like going to the teacher's office when he was in school.

Guan Lan didn't expect that Yang Peining came to him because of this ending song.

Yang Peining: "Where is this Zhuang Lin from?"

Guan Lan: "I just signed it."

Yang Peining: "Well, the record contract is ours. What about the management contract?"

Guan Lan's heart sank, and he probably guessed what he meant.

Guan Lan: "The manager is in Huixin."

Yang Peining said slowly: "Since the ending song is entrusted to us, my opinion is that we should focus on our own artists. What do you think?"

Hu Qianqian is a member of Tianlong, and her brokerage contract is signed with Tianlong.

Guan Lan: "It's up to the crew to decide who to choose in the end. My opinion is of no value."

Yang Peining: "Don't prevaricate me with such words. Is it difficult to control who the crew chooses?"

indeed.The ending song of a TV series is not a live performance, and the quality of the post-production is very important.Guan Lan was in charge of the later stage.

Guan Lan: "Mr. Yang, let me give you a solid background. I am very optimistic about Zhuang Lin, and I will put a lot of effort into supporting him."

Yang Peining raised his eyes: "If you look good, that's even worse. If you make him popular, isn't that a marriage for someone else?"

To put it bluntly, Guan Lan took great pains to make Zhuang Lin popular, and what they earned was the little money from selling songs and records.Zhuang Lin's company took advantage of his follow-up announcement fees, endorsement fees, and performance fees.

From Yang Peining's point of view, of course it is not cost-effective.

Fortunately, the big boss gave him a glimmer of life.

Yang Peining: "If you really like him, I'll ask Peiqing to arrange someone to get in touch with him."

This is to completely dig Zhuang Lin over.

Yang Peining: "Pei Qing is out of town today, you can talk to him tomorrow. I will say hello to him."

Guan Lan shook the grass in his heart.

No, boss!Help me talk to him, boss!I have a grudge against him, boss!Hate for taking your wife, boss!

People can't lie and do bad things, and they will be punished!

————————————————————

Guan Lan couldn't tell her boss "your brother broke up with his boyfriend and now he regards me as his rival in love", so he had to bite the bullet and prepare to find Yang Peiqing.

He used to think that Yang Peiqing had basic professional ethics no matter what, and would not avenge his personal revenge publicly, but ever since he knew that he had sued Chen Jin for his black case, Guan Lan had no confidence in his character.

So before looking for Yang Peiqing, he went to Chen Jin first.

Guan Lan: "You have to be responsible to me."

Chen Jin was frightened: "When did I put you to sleep?"

Guan Lan: "I'm in the hands of your ex-husband now, go sell yourself and settle him for me."

Chen Jin: "He is a bit of a scumbag, he will not abolish public affairs for personal reasons, and will not take personal revenge on you at work."

Guan Lan: "That's a general hatred. This is my hatred for taking my wife, who knows?"

Chen Jin: "If during my normal relationship with him, I cheated on you, put a big green hat on his head, and then kicked him, that would be the hatred of taking his wife; I broke up with him, and then Meeting someone new is called freedom of love, how can it be called hatred of taking one's wife?"

Guan Lan: "... If I dare to be Ximen Qing, he is not Wu Dalang, and he didn't kill me immediately."

Chen Jin: "...I can reluctantly break up with you."

Guan Lan: "What problem can this solve? I am an innocent person from the beginning to the end, okay? You two, can't sit down and talk calmly, don't quarrel, don't go to bed, and talk about all the problems left over from history Is it clear? Either cleanly break it in two, or start over cleanly, don’t be so entangled, so hello me, hello everyone, and people all over the world breathe a sigh of relief.”

Chen Jin: "If you're in a relationship, you won't be so naive. You can't say everything clearly."

Guan Lan: "It's better not to talk if you talk like this."

Chen Jin: "I see. You shouldn't be troubled by the two of us. I'll tell him that the two of us are fake."

Seeing that he was so sensible suddenly, Guan Lan felt a little embarrassed: "Forget it, you will lose face, and I will lose face as well. Just say we broke up, break up peacefully, so we can get together and leave."

The next day, Mr. Guan held a meeting with Mr. Yang.

Seeing Yang Peiqing's expression and mental state, Guan Lan immediately knew two facts:

First, Chen Jin has already told Yang Peiqing that they broke up.

Second, Chen Jin slept with Yang Peiqing again.

This pair was forced, Guan Lan decided not to get involved in their affairs in this life.

Yang Peiqing: "I've probably heard about the situation. How does Mr. Guan need my cooperation now?"

Guan Lan: "According to Mr. Peining, I want you to send someone to contact Zhuang Lin and talk to him about the brokerage agreement."

Yang Peiqing: "Then the boss will see, I have a few agents here, who is the right one?"

Guan Lan has always had a sense of propriety, and never interferes with other people's internal affairs: "It depends on your arrangement, of course all of our Tianlong's agents are good."

Yang Peiqing: "To be honest, I am not as good as Mr. Guan when it comes to singers. Since Mr. Guan said he would be popular, then I will go dig him. I am more interested in his manager, Qi Fei."

Guan Lan: "You mean..."

Yang Peiqing: "I've had my eye on her for a long time. This time, since we're going to pull out the carrot, we have to uproot it."

Guan Lan didn't expect the progress to be so smooth this time, probably because of Yang Peiqing's high spirits on happy occasions.

When the assistants of both of them left the room and they were the only ones left in the office, Yang Peiqing suddenly asked Guan Lan, "Is this Zhuang Lin the one who spent the night with you in the meeting room?"

Guan Lan: "...didn't stay overnight."

Yang Peiqing: "Don't worry, I will definitely get someone here for you."

Guan Lan: "...You really misunderstood."

Yang Peiqing: "Then why did you break up with Chen Jin?"

Guan Lan: "He dumped me, why don't you ask him?"

Yang Peiqing showed him an expression of "the same people who have fallen in the end of the world".

Guan Lan felt that there seemed to be a bigger misunderstanding.
