Perfect Life

August 23, Monday, morning.

In a daze, Wang Jingxue opened his eyes when he felt the car stop.

Their combination of Five Elements and Wusu receives a lot of commercial performances almost every month. This time, they went to several cities in the south for a total of seven performances. In addition, in order to make a cameo appearance as a few vase models in a play, they were also in the show. I stayed at HN for a few days, and it was two weeks in a row.

It's hateful that the show business is too stingy, and the plane ticket back was bought for the middle of the night, which made the sisters in the group yawn all day after getting off the plane, and there were not many in the company's business car to pick up the plane. The assembly fell asleep.

Like every time before, when they go out and come back, they always have to go to the manager, Sister Wu, to order a mao first, and this time is no exception. It was just after nine o'clock. Everyone returned to the company to clean up and wash their faces. Sister Wu had already arrived. But seeing that they were sluggish one by one, they simply waved their hands and took a day off.

Business performance is very fast, but running back and forth is really tiring.

After disbanding, everyone quickly went their separate ways. Wang Jingxue was still at the end. After tidying up his small cabinet in the lounge, he took the keys and prepared to go to the underground garage to pick up the car and go home.

When she passed by the karaoke room, she found that there were actually a bunch of people around the door watching and discussing something. She knew that it must be the sales chart from the previous week that was posted again, and then she suddenly realized that today It's Monday.

It's just... She raised her wrist to look at her watch, and found that it was almost ten o'clock. She couldn't help but wonder: Usually, at this time, everyone in the company has already read it, why are there still so many people around today?

She knew that this should be an abnormal situation on the list that exceeded everyone's imagination, so everyone watched and discussed so vigorously.

Wang Jingxue is also very curious about what happened, but she never likes to crowd into such a lively place, plus she slept badly on the plane last night, she just felt very tired all over, so she thought it was better. Check it out until tomorrow morning.

She went downstairs and picked up the car. She carefully picked up her energy and drove her Great Wall trot all the way home. She passed the supermarket not far from the community, and went in to buy a few handfuls of green vegetables. When she returned home, it was almost ten years old. one o'clock.

The house is very clean, which makes Wang Jingxue very satisfied: Erya can be lazy sometimes. Back then at home, I didn't say much about her, but maybe it was because she grew up and came to BJ. , she found that Erya was a lot more diligent. At least I was away from home for half a month, and the hygiene in the house was kept well.

She put down the keys and handbag, put the vegetables in the refrigerator, and when she looked back, she saw the note left on the coffee table—

"Sister, I boiled millet porridge and reserved a bowl for you. It's hot in the rice cooker, you remember to drink it. By the way, I cooked some peanut beans yesterday, and marinated the celery according to the method taught by my mother, and it was all mixed. , it's in the refrigerator. It's just that when the peanut beans are boiled, there is less water added, and it tastes a little mushy, hee hee ^-^"

Wang Jingxue gave a rare smile.

Then, she saw the CD originally placed under the note.

"Liao Liao".

Wang Jingxue raised the corner of her mouth slightly and smiled again.

She knew that this was Erya reminding herself: You still haven't broken the CD I gave you!

Putting down the note, she went to the kitchen to turn on the rice cooker, took a spoon to taste the millet porridge, it was still warm, but not hot enough, so she turned on the power and warmed it up a bit, feeling that it should burn her mouth, so she turned off the power and took the The bowl was taken out, and then the water was soaked in the inner pot of the rice cooker, and then I took a pair of chopsticks and carried the bowl back to the table next to the kitchen.

Putting down the bowl, she opened the refrigerator to find Wang Jinglu's pickled celery and peanuts. She took a small bowl and poked the bottom of the bowl out, poured some sesame oil and mixed it. Then she sat down and enjoyed her breakfast.

She has had a cold stomach since she was a child, so she didn't dare to eat cold food. If she eats a little more, she will not digest it and make her stomach upset. Therefore, she has never stopped eating a bowl of rice porridge that nourishes her stomach every morning since she was a child.

The millet porridge was slightly hot and glutinous, just a little cold homemade pickles just taken out of the refrigerator... After going out for more than ten days, this is really a rare enjoyment for her—well, Peanut beans are indeed a bit sticky, but I didn't find any burnt ones. I think Erya should have picked them out one by one.

After eating a bowl of millet porridge, she obviously felt her lower abdomen warmed up, and the discomfort on the plane that night seemed to have been relieved a lot.

Then, she wiped her mouth and brushed out the bowls, chopsticks and the inner pot of the rice cooker, and then she took off her clothes and went to take a shower.

After taking a shower and sitting lazily on the sofa, she put on a bath towel, and began to calculate the gains of this trip - in fact, there is nothing to calculate. Huage is one of the top music companies in China, and it is natural to treat ordinary artists. Extremely strong, the contract signed by the five of them when they were signed by the company was also quite harsh.

This time I went out and made a cameo appearance in that play, not to mention taking money. I can't wait to find other people's crew money. For the remaining commercial activities, a total of 280,000 performance funds, the company will directly take 50%. The brokerage agreed to take another 10%, and the remaining four were paid one cent for five people after the tax was paid, and it was around 15,000 yuan for one person.

To be serious, compared to the vast majority of peers, this income is naturally quite high, but in the music circle, especially for singers, this income is basically the bottom group. . What's worse is not that there are none, but those singers are often wandering around the periphery of the professional circle, and they are not professional singers.

Moreover, although the agent Wu Sister did not say anything, several sisters of Wuxing Wusu can feel that their appearance fees are getting lower and lower, their treatment is getting lower and lower, and their appearance conditions are also demanding more and more. harsher. For example, this time, three of the seven commercial performances required them to wear tight vests and miniskirts. To put it bluntly, they were invited to come over in order to let the five pairs of white legs detonate the hormones at the scene. As for what they sang Song, but no one pays attention.

In fact, this is not surprising at all.

The first album they released last year has been more than a year now, and it has barely sold about 300,000 copies. The market influence is limited, and it is said that many people buy the original album not to listen to the song, but just to see that one. It's just the **** dance in the MV. Therefore, when the company was preparing for their second album, they were not very active, so that the second album was only halfway through.

Moreover, their Wuxingwusu combination, as one of the only two girl groups in China, was originally intended to be a "sisters combo" with Xinda Records, but the three sisters mainly took the cute route, and the company originally The development strategy formulated when signing the five sisters, Wuxing Wusu, was to take the **** route.

So far, it's not a success.

Of course, I don't know if the Chinese people are not willing to accept the relationship between singing groups. Even the first two albums of the founders "Sister Tao Group", which are only hundreds of thousands of sales, are far from success. It is even said that the idea of ​​disbanding the group has already begun within Xinda Records.

She sighed and slumped on the sofa completely relaxed.

With a glance, she saw the box of CDs on the coffee table again. After hesitating for a while, she picked up the CD case and pulled it gently, removed the outer packaging, and took out the CD.

After the contract was signed, the album was released. Apart from the pitiful monthly salary given by the company, the sisters finally started to have income, and they still had a lot more income than before. Some of them bought a big house, some buy a luxury car, but Wang Jingxue did not. She still lives in a small rented apartment until now, and after getting her own money, apart from spending less than 40,000 yuan to buy a second-hand Great Wall trot, her biggest consumption is to buy A piano, and another 10,000 yuan to buy a set of HIFI speakers that are not even entry-level.

Turn on the power, put the CD in, and she went back to the sofa and sat down.

The music started, and the singing sounded.

I've heard Liao Liao's single before, but when I listen to her song again, even Wang Jingxue has to admit that this girl's voice and singing skills are really good and amazing! In particular, there seems to be a quality in her voice that can grab your ears and touch your heart at the first time!

In contrast, Wang Jingxue feels that although her singing skills are not inferior to hers, she is a little disadvantaged in terms of voice - God is pitiful, in fact, in people's traditional understanding, a voice like her is the best. Yes, clear, high-pitched, penetrating, fast songs and slow songs are fine, sweet songs and love songs are fine! However, with the sudden popularity of Zhen Zhen, it seems that people's understanding of the voice of female singers has turned suddenly, and everyone began to think that the voice of female singers must be like Zhen Zhen's to be considered good!

Well, it's not surprising, even Wang Jingxue thinks so.

Zhen Zhen's voice is high-pitched and unrestrained in the treble area, like a surging river, the midrange area is full and open, like a thousand drums in unison, but the bass area is mellow and dense, like a lover's whisper... It's hard to believe.

And compared to her, this Liao Liao's voice is not inferior!

In Wang Jingxue's opinion, if you have to compare the two, in the high-pitched area, Liao Liao's voice should be slightly weaker. Although her slightly hoarse voice is really impressive, I always feel that Zhen Zhen's voice is more imposing than that of Zhen Zhen. As for the midrange, the two should be able to draw a tie. Each has its own strengths and characteristics, but in the bass area, Liao Liao has to be superior. The feeling of telling in her voice is even stronger than Zhen Zhen's. !

With such a discerning voice, even Wang Jinglu felt that this Liao Liao would become popular sooner or later.

But then thinking of his current situation, Wang Jingxue couldn't help but have a headache: Before going out this time, the producer and the manager Sister Wu had already agreed to set a new song for them, Wuxing Wusu, and got the song. After Ben, Wang Jingxue didn't know what other people thought, but first of all, in her own heart, she resisted so much that she could not help but go berserk.

The lyrics of that song are full of naked sexual provocation from beginning to end!

But... how can it be?

She rubbed her brows, forcing herself to put aside these temporarily and concentrate on listening to the song.

But to be honest, this song is not too outstanding, the only thing that is outstanding is probably Liao Liao's voice and singing skills. In addition, this song is a very normal urban love song - many people have sung it, many people are singing it, and many people will continue to release this kind of song in the future.

I don't know if this song was too unattractive, or because I really didn't sleep well last night, and at this moment, listening to the song while leaning on the sofa, Wang Jingxue started to doze off unexpectedly.

Until...she suddenly heard that agitated and unrestrained voice!

"My hometown is not beautiful. The low thatched cottage, the bitter well water, and a small river that often dries up, are attached to the small village. On a barren land, I harvest a meager hope. I live year after year. Generation after generation. …”

Wang Jingxue opened her eyes suddenly.

This is... a folk song!

This word is really well written!

Of course, this song is also quite good! The tune is unrestrained and tactful, free and easy but delicate. Liao Liao's voice was effortless and easy to control.

As the saying goes, "children don't dislike mother ugly, dogs don't dislike family poverty", the poverty and barrenness of the hometown does not make the word hometown lose its color, but makes the love and love for the hometown in the song even more exciting!

This is called the lyrics!

This is called a good song!

Works of this level were definitely top-notch in the period of the country song boom ten years ago!

…………

Soon, the song was finished, but Wang Jingxue immediately picked up the remote control and chose to go backwards. While listening to the arrangement from the beginning, she couldn't help but picked up the CD case on the coffee table and pulled out the lyrics book. I flipped to the fourth page and found the lyrics of this song. However, the moment she saw the lyrics clearly, she was stunned again——

Next to the name of the song, there are two identical names written.

Lyricist: Li Qian.

Composer: Li Qian.

Wang Jingxue's brows furrowed instantly.

This is not surprising. As early as when Erya bought this CD for herself, Wang Jingxue had already guessed that this is probably a song that Li Qian sold to Liao Liao, although how much did it sell for? It's really hard to be sure, but it seems that selling songs has been confirmed to be true.

It's just that he shouldn't be selling this song!

How old is he? It should be the same age as Erya, that is seventeen.

A seventeen-year-old boy... to write this kind of song?

Not to mention other things, take this song as an example, if you weren't from the Northwest, or you were very familiar with and affectionate towards the Northwest, would you be able to write such lyrics?

But Li Qian is from Jinan!

He is only seventeen years old, and it is estimated that he has not left home until now!

She looked down again, yes--

Lyricist: Li Qian.

Composer: Li Qian.

She frowned and shook her head slightly.

Soon, this song was played for the second time.

The next song is another ordinary urban love song. Wang Jingxue only listened to the first time, and then took the lyrics book and turned it back. Sure enough, the next song was called "Perseverance", and both the lyricist and the composer were Li Qian.

I read the lyrics for the first time, and the stubbornness between the lines is more like Li Qian's writing than the folk song about the northwest just now. However, compared to his age, this song still seems too old. Too mature!

Just at this moment, the previous song was played, and after a short interval, a guitar sounded.

As soon as Liao Liao's voice came out, there was a sense of stubbornness in that laziness, and Wang Jinglu was shocked all of a sudden!

Then, she widened her eyes in surprise... This is actually a light rock!

However, it sounds really good!

In a trance, she suddenly remembered the scene she saw before leaving the company in the morning, and she immediately recalled: Liao Liao's album must be a big seller!

Another female singer is on the rise!

Taking a deep breath, she turned to the next page of the lyrics book.

Wildflowers.

Lyricist: Li Qian.

Composer: Li Qian.

…………

She turned another page—

Cheers, friend.

Lyricist: Li Qian.

Composer: Li Qian.

…………

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Jinglu came back from school.

When she entered the house and saw her sister's high heels, she quickly changed into slippers and entered the house. Seeing that her sister was busy in the kitchen, she didn't even care to put down her satchel, so she jumped to the kitchen door and said, "Sister, sister. , have you eaten the millet porridge I left for you? Isn't the celery and peanuts delicious? Is it similar to what my mother marinated?"

Wang Jingxue turned off the fire, and said lightly while putting out the dishes: "Well, it's almost, it's just a little more mushy."

Wang Jinglu laughed twice, turned around and put away her bag.

Two minutes later, she ran over again and looked at Wang Jingxue's back with a look of surprise, "Sister, sister, have you heard that CD? How is it? How is it? Is it good?"

Wang Jingxue nodded, and while turning her head to let her serve the dishes, she filled the rice and said, "Well, I heard it, it's not bad. Liao Liao's singing skills are great!"

After a pause, she finished the rice, and when she looked back, she saw Wang Jinglu staring straight at her, and suddenly smiled and said, "Li Qian's songs are not bad! Well, maybe he really sold 400,000 yuan. Maybe, my sister will take back those words before."

"yeah!"

If it wasn't for a plate of vegetables in his hand, Wang Jinglu would have jumped up this time.

But soon, she was not happy anymore. She stared at Wang Jingxue's eyes carefully, and said worriedly, "Sister, why are your eyes so red? Didn't sleep well last night? You didn't sleep for a while after you got home?"

Wang Jingxue smiled and said, "Eat first."

As a result, when she sat down at the dinner table, Wang Jingxue obviously hesitated several times. In the end, Wang Jinglu stopped her chopsticks and looked at her sister, asking, "Sister, is there something wrong with you?"

Wang Jingxue looked up at her, forced a smile, shook her head, and said, "It's alright."

"Oh." Wang Jinglu heard the words and continued to eat with her head down.

But soon, Wang Jingxue stopped his chopsticks and asked, "Your training class is almost over?"

Wang Jinglu nodded and said, "There are still two days of class." After thinking about it, she said, "Sister, when the class is over, I want to go home again, and I miss my mother again."

Wang Jingxue nodded and said, "Okay, then you can go back."

Wang Jinglu asked, "Then...are you going back with me?"

Wang Jingxue thought for a while, then shook his head slowly~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and said, "I'm arranging a new song recently. When I came back in the morning, I went to the company first. The agent said that the choreographer had already asked the choreographer to compose the new song before I left. After the dance, you know, the dance will begin again."

Wang Jinglu had no choice but to nod.

After the two sisters finished their meal, Wang Jinglu obediently asked to wash the dishes. Wang Jingxue only helped clear the dining table, then went back to the sofa and sat down to rest.

Through the glass sliding door, she watched Erya busy there, and when she heard the sound of rushing water, she subconsciously turned her head to look at the CD case and the lyrics book on the coffee table.

She picked up the lyrics book and wanted to open it, but finally put it back in the CD case.

She got up and put the CD on the small bookshelf. Looking at the words "Liao Liao", she couldn't help sighing softly.

In other words, when the book was first published, I didn't know whether anyone read what I wrote. I was worried every day. I always felt that my writing was not good here and there, so I wrote very slowly. The strange thing is that at that time, most of the book review areas were all despised, looked down on, and ran away because of the slow pace, but no one said that I was slow to update. But recently, I am at 45,600 a day at every turn, which is much faster than three days and two chapters at that time. Instead, the whole book review area is complaining that it is too slow. Alas~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Welcome to book friends Come and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all at ~www.wuxiaspot.com~. \\u003c/a\\u003e
