Chapter 140

At the end of August, the airport.

Lin Xuan, Xia fan and sun yaohuo send Lin Yuan away together. This time, sun yaohuo doesn't wear a mask and sunglasses. He doesn't want to be recognized, but he wants to be recognized by passers-by.

"Stars, right?"

"It seems so!"

"What's it called again?"

There was a murmur in the distance.

Sun yaohuo straightened his chest and turned to look at the crowd with a smile. But the next moment, his smile froze, because he saw several people rushing to Xia fan, some taking photos with mobile phones, some taking out notebooks to ask for autographs

"Xia fan!"

"Xia fan!"

The excitement is theirs.

At this time, shortly after Lin Yuangang boarded the plane and left, sun yaohuo was already in the huge airport. He felt lonely in advance, but he was numbly pushed to the outside by the crowd.

“……”

Lin Yuan didn't adapt to the feeling of flying. He was not afraid of heights, but as the plane got higher and higher, his eardrum was a little uncomfortable. He could only sleep as much as he could. After all, the journey was as long as seven hours.

The ticket is reserved by my sister.

She went straight to business class.

When Lin Yuan found out, it was too late, so he could only feel sad. After all, the price difference between business class and economy class was not small, and he didn't know how many yolks Lin Yuan could eat.

At this time, the villa is about to be handed over.

Lin Yuan also paid for the decoration.

Let my sister be responsible for the specific operation.

After this part of consumption, Lin Yuan has no money left in his pocket. Fortunately, September is just around the corner, and in a few days, new contributions and songs will arrive. So Lin Yuan is not worried

Seven hours later.

Lin Yuan arrives at Qizhou.

It's still bright on this side of Qizhou. After half a journey, Lin Yuan was so dizzy when he got off the plane that he went to the check-in office to pick up his luggage and washed his face in the bathroom. Only then did he wake up a little.

Qizhou, Yicheng.

This is the city Lin Yuan arrived in. As one of the most developed cities in Qizhou, there is a time difference of about four hours between this place and Su city in Qinzhou. It should not be difficult for Lin Yuan to adjust.

He took out his cell phone and made a call.

This is the number that Lao Zhou left to Lin Yuan. He said that he could contact Lin Yuan when he arrived in Qizhou. Then someone would pick him up and go to the branch office, including the residence, and let the people from the branch office arrange it in advance.

The phone is through.

The phone is a girl's voice: "excuse me, you are Mr. Xianyu. I'll wait for you at the terminal on the first floor. The car is now parked in the parking lot below. You can see me when you come out. I'm wearing a red coat..."

"I see you."

Lin Yuan looks at the girl in the distance.

When the other party saw Lin Yuan's face, she was obviously stunned. Then she put down her mobile phone and came over. In some uncertain language, she said, "I'm Gu Dong, an employee of xingmang branch. Are you Mr. Xianyu?"

Lin Yuan nodded.

some surprise in Gu Dong's mind. The representative sent from the head office was so young that it was beyond the expectation of Gu Dong. However, Gu Dong had investigated some information about the fish before knowing that he was a very good composer in Qinzhou, so he did not dare to neglect Lin Yuan's youth: "then let's go to the company first."

"Good."

It's hard to be envious of fish.

He has a high and cold personality.

Gu Dong made a preliminary judgment in his heart and took the initiative to mention Lin Yuan's suitcase: "you should be tired after flying all the way. Give me your luggage. The parking station is below. Just follow me."

Lin Yuan did not refuse.

As the car drove out of the airport, Gu Dong introduced the situation to Lin Yuan: "I will be your secretary in the branch company in the future. If you need anything, you can tell me. In addition, I have a personal question to ask. Is your real name Xianyu?"

"My name is Lin Yuan."

Gu Dong nodded, and Xianyu was indeed a name similar to a stage name: "I'll call you representative Lin in the future, or you can call someone else Xianyu teacher. I'll communicate with the company."

"Whatever."

Lin Yuan's speech is concise and comprehensive.

Gu Donggan laughs twice. He doesn't speak any more. He drives attentively. Lin Yuan takes out his mobile phone and sends a message to his sister. Except for the time difference, there are not many obstacles to the communication between the two sides.

Send the message.

Lin Yuan has downloaded several popular music listening softwares in Qizhou, two of which are also popular in Qinzhou. It can be seen that there are still many similar places on both sides, which makes Lin Yuan feel less like leaving his hometown.

Put on headphones.

Lin Yuan began to sing.

He listens to music that is popular in Qizhou. There are some differences between his style and Qinzhou. The overall quality is not as good as Qinzhou. Qinzhou does not live up to its reputation as the land of music. Moreover, Qizhou is more popular here. Among the popular songs of Qizhou randomly played by Lin Yuan, more than 70% of the works are sung in Qizhou, and the remaining 30% are ordinary Singing with words.I don't know how long I've been listening.

The two arrived at the branch office.

Lin Yuan and Gu Dong get out of the car and come to a company. There are four big words "xingmang music" on the wall of the company. However, the scale of the company can't be compared with that of the headquarters. Even the name of the company has faded and rusted because it hasn't been maintained for a long time.

"The company has three floors."

Gu Dong said: "the recording studio and other equipment are on the first floor. The second floor is mostly the working area, and the third floor is mainly the office. You are the representative sent by the head office, and you are on the same level with the general manager, so we have arranged the representative office for you."

Lin Yuan nodded.

The location of this company is a little bit biased. The advantage of biased location is that the surrounding environment is not bad and it seems relatively open. The size of the three-story company is certainly not comparable to that of the headquarters. However, Lin Yuan can understand that the development of the branch company is not good.

The company doesn't have elevators.

They can only climb the stairs.

Lin Yuan didn't feel disgusted. He just followed Gu Dong to visit the company with great interest. When passing by the working area on the second floor, many employees curiously looked at Lin Yuan behind Gu Dong.

"Did Gu Dong come back to pick someone up?"

"Is that a representative from headquarters?"

"How do you feel so young?"

"I guess it's because we are young and easy to bully that we are sent here. The head office of our broken company didn't pay attention to it. The manager begged hard for several months, but the head office was willing to send someone over. Now the manager obviously regards others as a life-saving straw, but forgets how a straw can save the drowning people..."

"I suspect the man is still a student."

"I'm starting to worry that the company is really going to close down this year. The headquarters has sent a young man to come here, obviously perfunctory. It's not easy to find a job these days. Have you all found a good home?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm a loyal minister of the company!"

"I said you're fat, but you're still breathing. Before you came to our company, you had a glorious record of job hopping five times. If it wasn't for the lack of people in our company, you would not have been accepted at all."

“……”

Naturally, Lin Yuan doesn't know about the discussion in the company. He has entered his office under the leadership of Gu Dong. The space of the office is not big, but the vision is good. Looking out from the window, it happens to be a big lawn, which reminds Lin Yuan of his position in the headquarters.

There is a sign in front of the table.

Representative of the headquarters: Xianyu

the black desk and fresh green plants are placed in the corner of the room. It is obvious that someone has taken care of them in advance: "we can have a meeting later to introduce you to the company staff. Jingideal will hold a welcome ceremony for you tonight. He attaches great importance to your arrival!"

Gu Dong opened his mouth with a smile.

But behind Gu Dong's smile, he was full of bitterness: "my father dreams that the headquarters will send someone to come here. Maybe all the future hopes of the company are pinned on this representative, but the situation of the branch can be easily solved by one person."

"No more."

Lin Yuan refused directly.

He doesn't like welcome ceremony and so on. At the moment, he has a more concerned question: "how to arrange my residence? Is it close to Qizhou art college? Is it inconvenient to go to school in the future?"

Gu Dong

Her mood grew bitter.

The representative was still a student. When the headquarters sent someone over, he made it clear on the phone. Zhou Ruiming called the manager in person and repeatedly stressed: "the main task of Xianyu coming to Qizhou is to study. He passed as an exchange student of qinyi."

The implication is very clear.

Don't give fish too much work.

Cheer up, Gu Dong some reluctantly said with a smile: "your residence is a little far away from the company, but it's very close to your school. This is a special charge from the headquarters. We have already rented the house for you, and the rental fee is borne by our branch."

"Thank you."

Lin Yuan was relieved.

Just then, there was a loud noise outside the door. The specific content was not clear. Lin Yuan's office could only hear something like this: "if your company couldn't do it, it would go to the headquarters. When I signed the contract with you, it was signed in the name of xingmang headquarters. You also promised us that..."

The sound is getting closer.

Lin Yuan heard an apology from a middle-aged man: "we will prepare a few more songs to send to you, which will make you satisfied. We didn't cooperate very well before. We attach great importance to your list..."

The voice is still on.

Several men in suits passed by Lin Yuan's office. Seeing the sign at the door of the office, they stopped immediately: "when did your Qinzhou headquarters send a representative over, they didn't tell us."

The door is not closed.

At a glance, the leader saw Lin Yuan standing in front of his desk. Then he looked at the sign on Lin Yuan's desk and immediately raised his voice: "are you the representative sent by xingmang headquarters? Please contact the headquarters for us. Our list can't be made by your branch office. Let your headquarters do it. We signed the contract in black and white at the beginning!""Our representative just arrived..."

The voice of apology just sounded, and then a middle-aged, slightly fat man appeared at the door. He looked a little embarrassed. After bowing to Lin Yuan, he sent these people out of the company, and the voice gradually faded away.

Lin Yuan asked, "who is he?"

Gu Dong said helplessly: "he is Gu Qiangyun, the general manager of the branch company, and he is also my father. The group just now are the biggest customers of our branch company. They have cooperated with each other several times before, but this time, Party A is not satisfied with the works we produced, so they will go there to urge. This is not the first time that this situation has happened."

"Oh."

Lin Yuan sat down.

Gu Dong was disappointed when he saw that Lin Yuan didn't respond. On second thought, she thought that she was taking things for granted. How could the headquarters send someone to solve the difficulties of the branch?

"That's right."

The chair under the body should be new, and it's very comfortable to sit. Lin Yuan likes the working environment. After a little adjustment, Lin Yuan said, "please send me the address of my residence."

"Waiting for work."

Gu Dong said, "I'll take you there."

Lin Yuan nodded and saved a taxi.

At this time, Gu Qiangyun, the manager of the company, came back. He knocked on the door and showed an apologetic smile: "I'm really sorry to meet this situation when I just entered the company. I'm Gu Qiangyun, the experience of a branch company. Hello!"

He held out his hand.

Lin Yuan politely shook hands with the other party, and then asked curiously, "I just arrived, so I don't know much about the situation. Is there a lot of branches like that?"

Gu Dong

Gu Qiangyun

After a few seconds of embarrassment, Gu Qiangyun coughed and said, "not much, not much. The music companies here will more or less encounter the situation of list squeeze. It's a big deal. We just need to pay some liquidated damages."

"Not much, how much?"

"Just four or five orders."

Gu Qiangyun's sweat came down. Although the representative sent by the headquarters looked young, he seemed a little fierce. He was very dissatisfied with our work. What should he do if he wants to complain to the headquarters?

"Four five orders..."

Lin Yuan didn't frown as Gu Qiangyun imagined. He was only concerned about the price of Party A's orders: "like the group of party a just now, how much do they pay for a song customized by a branch?"

"Eight hundred thousand."

Gu Qiang replied.

This time, Lin Yuan's brows really wrinkled. The price of this order was too low. When he received the order of "fish Dragon Dance" at the headquarters, the other party paid five million yuan. Why is the price of the internal order so low in Qizhou?

Fire pit!

This is the pit of fire!

Gu Qiangyun carefully observed Lin Yuan's face. He frowned and felt a little heavy: "you may be used to staying in the headquarters. Xingmang is a top entertainment company in Qinzhou, but xingmang entertainment is actually a small music company in Qizhou. Because the success rate is not very good, we have received the highest price order, that is 100 yuan Only large entertainment companies can receive large orders worth millions of dollars. "

"Single rate?"

There was a movement in Lin Yuan's heart.

Gu Qiangyun was stunned for a moment. It seems that Lin Yuan doesn't know much about the situation here. He mentioned his spirit and said, "because there are a lot of films and TV plays and of course some game projects in Qizhou every year, so their demand for music is also very large. The top production is usually customized from Qinzhou, but some small projects can't afford the price of Qinzhou, so it's very important to pay attention to them We will find some small music companies to cooperate in Qinzhou. "

Lin Yuan is thoughtful.

Gu Dong added: "however, our small music companies have limited strength, so if Party A is not satisfied with the songs we put out all the time, our list will be yellow. At that time, both sides will negotiate according to the original contract, sometimes it will be directly abolished, and sometimes we will have to pay liquidated damages."

"Wait a minute."

Lin Yuan found a loophole: "what if Party A swindles for liquidated damages on the ground that the song is not up to standard? After all, the quality of a song is a very subjective thing."

"Don't worry."

Gu Qiangyun said with a smile: "this kind of thing can't happen, because most of the lists are voided directly. Only when we face Party A with good reputation in Qizhou, we will add the option of breach of contract in the contract. Generally, the amount is not too large, so that Party A will not risk the reputation crisis to pit us. Moreover, there is a special audit Association in Qizhou, and both sides don't agree When you agree with the results, you will enter the relevant channels for judgment. The Audit Association is still very fair. If you are not convinced with the results of the Audit Association, you can release the songs and accept the public's judgment. "

Lin Yuan nodded.

Although there are still some subjective factors, it's enough to achieve this level. If 100 people listen to a song, 90 people think it's not good. Even if it's subjective, it's more objective. Moreover, most companies really pay attention to reputation. If the company's reputation is bad, it's hard to get a foothold in the circle."In fact."

Gu Dong further dispelled Lin Yuan's misgivings: "there has been no dissatisfaction with the results of the music Audit Association. The members of the music Audit Association are all highly respected predecessors in the music industry. They all have professional staff in Qizhou. This is their job."

"I see."

Lin Yuan nodded: "so if we can improve the order rate, Party A's bid will be higher and higher in the future, and even there may be an order of several million?"

"Yes."

Gu Qiangyun wanted to remind Lin Yuan that few companies in Qizhou could receive millions of orders. People were willing to spend millions to customize a song. Why don't they go to Qinzhou, the land of music? However, Lin Yuan's eyes were a bit of Qiji, and he closed his mouth cleverly.

It's good to have a dream.

Lin Yuan was in a better mood. It wasn't as bad as he thought. He said, "let's improve the rate of the company's orders first. Please give me the squeezed list."

"Ah?"

Gu Qiangyun and Gu Dong look at each other face to face. How can you say that so easily? First, increase the rate of the company's orders. Do you know how many months it takes to grind a list?

"Inconvenient?"

Lin Yuan looks up at them.

Gu Donglian said: "just a moment. I'll take all the lists right now. These lists are all in the charge of the composer's department. However, because they have not been completed, they have entered the public pool. Everyone can take them. You can also see if there are suitable lists for you."

"Well."

Lin Yuan is ready. Although the price of the company's list is not high at present, according to Qi Zhou, as long as the rate of order completion increases, Party A's bid will also increase in the future.

He's ready.
