This is a very ordinary small alley in Shanghai. The door is gray, and there are six or seven high and narrow cement steps at the door that can't even fit half a foot of an ordinary man. They only sell fried rice, fried rice noodles and so on. Wonton, three kinds of daily food, is an inconspicuous little restaurant without even a sign.
In the early years, there were many similar restaurants in the Magic City, which were engaged in the business of surrounding residents. Although there was no signboard, the two iron pots for making pan-fried and fried dumplings placed at the door already made it clear that it was a restaurant for eating.
Not only does this restaurant not look eye-catching from the outside, it also doesn¡¯t have much space inside, with only four tables. Although it¡¯s not the time to eat, the owner of this restaurant is good at craftsmanship, the food is delicious, the ingredients are honest, and the prices are affordable. , everyone who lives or works nearby knows that, so even though there is still more than half an hour before lunch, the store is still almost full.
At the innermost table by the window, Yuan Qiaoqiao and Shen Haiyan, who had arranged to go shopping together, came in search of "scent". They sat across from each other, chatting while waiting for the food.
Shen Haiyan had a slumped face and cried, "Ah, I failed to escape from the Magic City, so I won't be able to go to the Imperial City in college.
?????????????????????????????????????????? It seems that from birth, studying, working to getting married and starting a family, I am afraid that I will spend all my life in Shanghai. If I want to go abroad, I may only travel or work. "
Picking up the glass of water at hand and taking a big sip, Yuan Qiaoqiao joked: "What you say will make those students with their heads hung up and their butts tingling, who want to run to the devil's capital but have failed, or those who want to study in the devil's capital after graduation." When all the graduates who have settled down hear this, I¡¯d be surprised if they don¡¯t beat you half to death!¡±
As soon as her voice changed, she asked with concern: "But didn't you say you wanted to apply for a school outside of town before, and you finally got your family's consent? Why did you end up applying for a university in Shanghai? Did you do poorly in the exam?"
"I'm performing normally, but the universities in Shanghai have more local enrollment, so my grades may help me get into a better university in Shanghai, but that may not be the case if I go to other places.
In fact, when I applied for a volunteer, I initially insisted on applying for a school outside of town, but my family finally convinced me.
After all, after I graduate from college, I will definitely go back to Shanghai. Some universities in other places are indeed ranked higher than those in Shanghai. But when looking for a job, if you don¡¯t graduate from a university that is familiar to the domestic public, the HR director will not go there. When considering whether your school is ranked 50th or 70th, you may be more likely to recognize unknown local colleges in Shanghai.
I think what they said makes sense, so after careful consideration, I decided to apply for a local school in Shanghai. "
Thinking of asking Peng Zhenzhen, Tong Zhangwei and Tang Zhou about the results of their application for colleges before returning to the magic city, Yuan Qiaoqiao nodded and agreed: "Your family's analysis makes sense, it is indeed the case."
Although she knew she had made the right choice, since she started thinking about studying abroad, Shen Haiyan had imagined how many times she would leave home to study abroad, but she failed to do so.
Even though some time had passed, she still felt that she could not recover from the shock. She pouted and complained: "The university is right at the doorstep. In this way, even if you live on campus, you are still living under the nose of your family." Down there, my freedom - when will you come?
¡°And I originally wanted to go to the imperial capital to join you"
Halfway through the conversation, I was interrupted by the meal served by the boss.
Shen Haiyan stopped talking, took out disposable chopsticks from the chopstick holder on the side, looked at the pot stickers, pan-fried vegetables, and wontons with mushrooms, vegetables and meat in front of her, picked up a spoon and scooped a few out of her bowl. I ordered Yuan Qiao Qiao, which is all vegetarian wontons.
Because Yuan Qiaoqiao didn't order anything else except a bowl of wontons, she pushed the plate with pot stickers towards her and said with concern: "It's already this time, we won't have lunch when we go shopping later. , if you only eat this much, can you bear it later? Do you want to eat something else? "
"No need." Yuan Qiaoqiao shook her head and refused, "I will join the filming team in a while. In order to be on camera, I have to control my diet, so this bowl of wontons is enough."
She put a pan-fried bun on a plate filled with vinegar. After hearing what she said, Shen Haiyan looked up at her and asked in confusion: "Are you going to join the filming team again?
You told me before that when you go to college, you should stay in school and study down-to-earth. Why do I feel that you are no different now than before you went to college? "
Yuan Qiaoqiao nodded and said: "Yeah, I don't think the difference is big, so I plan not to take any roles in the second half of the year and stay in school honestly."
"Then your company and agent will be willing?"
Just when she was about to speak, the melody of the VCD music playing in the store changed to the song "The Strong Wind Blows" that she sang with her brother, a familiar songThe melody sounded, and Yuan Qiaoqiao, who had her back to the TV, looked back subconsciously. As a result, she was stunned by the picture on the screen. Not only did the song become her solo, but the mv was not between her and her brother. The version I took.
"Your song "The Wind Blows" is really reusable. The chorus has not only a Cantonese version, a Mandarin version, but also a mixed version of Mandarin and Cantonese. The title song of your album this time is actually a solo version.
Although this song is really nice, it doesn¡¯t use it like you do, right? But it does work. I watched an entertainment program at home two days ago to take stock of the music rankings. Two versions of your song were on the top ten, and all four versions were on the top twenty. "
Album? Yuan Qiaoqiao grasped the key point of her words and thought about the album she had started recording in the second half of last year and was in progress, but Tianxing dragged her away from the unfinished album. She had already given up. I thought it would go on the market quietly.
When did this happen? Why didn¡¯t she receive any news beforehand? Even if she was in seclusion filming the time-travel drama
Originally, Yuan Qiaoqiao was still complaining that the company did not notify her, but suddenly it occurred to her that not only in the company, but even in the recording studio where she sang with her brother, she had never recorded a solo version, and at this time, physical albums usually only had ten or twelve songs. songs, but she had only recorded seven songs before. Even if you include the song "The Wind Blows", it's not enough. Where did the rest of the songs come from, or did Tianxing release an album with only eight songs?
The more she thought about it, the more something was wrong. She jumped up from her seat.
"What's wrong?" Shen Haiyan was startled by her actions, she looked up at her blankly and asked hurriedly.
Thinking that she had asked her aunt to help her communicate with Tianxing before, but her aunt had not responded to her so far, Yuan Qiaoqiao resisted the urge to call Tianxing Company and ask her aunt. She sat down slowly and shook her head, " fine."
Looking at her ugly face, it was obvious that she was not doing anything, but since she said that, she clearly didn't want to say it, so Shen Haiyan was sensible and didn't ask further.
Since she knew that she did not record a solo version, she naturally wanted to explore where the solos in this album came from. After listening carefully, she discovered that if she guessed correctly, the company should have recorded all the versions of her and her brother's duets. They were all included, and then her parts were individually edited and pieced together into a solo.
Because there are several lines in this solo that are sung in Cantonese, maybe the public is not clear about it and thinks that the solo version is like this. In fact, it is not. It is because in the duet with her brother, the few lines in the Mandarin version were not sung by her. , it¡¯s the brother¡¯s part, and I couldn¡¯t find the version she sang in Mandarin, so I could only use her Cantonese version for the solo.
After thinking about it, Yuan Qiaoqiao couldn't help but admire the company's methods. She scooped up a wonton with a spoon and put it into her mouth. She stirred it in the bowl a few times with the spoon, put it down, and gave Shen Haiyan a forced smile, " Sorry, I may not be able to go shopping with you, I have to go home."
"Okay." Shen Haiyan nodded happily, "But no matter how anxious you are, you don't have to wait until now. You have to finish the meal no matter what."
After dinner, the two took a car and walked back. When they broke up at the intersection, Yuan Qiaoqiao did not go home directly. Instead, she went to a video store not far away to buy the album that the company had given her.
Looking at the album in her hand, she breathed a sigh of relief. It contained ten songs. Although it was slightly less than twelve, it was still within an acceptable range. After looking at the song catalog above, she found that the company had not Songs from previous singles and albums were used to make up the number, and the songs she used were selected when recording the album.
When a singer records an album, it¡¯s not just how many songs the album contains that can be considered as good as Ding Ke Mao, but most of them have a surplus. In the end, they are not included in the album, but are brushed off. Some of them are incompatible with the entire album. The genre of the song doesn't match, and it may be released as a single later, but it's more that the quality of the song isn't up to par.
The so-called "failure" does not mean that it is bad and cannot be sung, but that after singing, it does not need to be tested by the market, and it can even be judged that there will be no splash.
When recording an album and collecting songs, there are many songs like this. During the recording process of the album, selecting and filtering songs is a very huge workload. Of course, there may not be any leftovers in it, but the probability is very high. Small is very small, no less than winning a lottery ticket.
Seeing the album in her hand, Yuan Qiaoqiao couldn't help but sigh. She was afraid that Tianxing would be like this. If it did everything right, she wouldn't have to be polite to it. She just lowered her face and explained everything clearly. If they get along, they will get together; if they don't get along, they will break up very simply.
But the way it looks now, it¡¯s clear that he doesn¡¯t want to let her go. Therefore, the album released without informing her did not use her reputation-based operating mode.
Of course, this may also be related to her background, and the fact that she was treated coldly by the company before. Not only did she accept it calmly, but the company did not break up with her, the company also wanted to keep her.
But in this case, it will be difficult for Yuan Qiaoqiao to do this.
