Chapter 354 What to Do?

Tuesday, June 13th, at 7:30 am.

A community in Shuntian Prefecture.

After running profusely in sweat, Wang Jingxue stopped the treadmill, took off the earphones, turned off the portable CD, then wiped the sweat with a towel, and walked down slowly. When Tao Huijun heard the running sound stopped, he called her, "The meal is already Alright, take a shower and come over to eat."

Wang Jingxue agreed and went into the bathroom.

It took only a few minutes, she simply rushed out, changed into a short-sleeved home-style pajamas, and at this time, two bowls of white rice porridge, a plate of small pickles, and two boiled eggs were already on the table. dining table.

An extremely simple breakfast, but this is the daily breakfast of their mother and daughter.

Everything is piping hot, which whets the appetite just by looking at it.

Wang Jingxue walked over, sat down, drank porridge and ate pickles in silence.

After eating a bowl of white rice porridge, she felt that the throbbing pain in her stomach caused by hunger gradually disappeared, and then she wiped her mouth and was about to get up, but Tao Huijun called her, "Eat the eggs, I know you want to keep fit , but I checked the information and consulted some fitness experts, for you, eating an egg for breakfast will definitely not make you fat."

A boiled egg is nothing more than an ordinary food for ordinary people, but for Wang Jingxue, whether to eat it or not is a big deal.

For so many years, in terms of her daily activity, eating so little food is really an unspeakable abuse to the stomach, and a boiled egg is definitely qualified to be called a delicacy.

The reason is simple: it makes you feel fuller.

But at this time, she hesitated for a moment, and she still shook her head, "Forget it, don't eat it, I'll add another egg when the recording and dance practice start."

Tao Huijun sighed helplessly, but still called her back, "Don't hurry, sit down."

Wang Jingxue glanced at her, turned around and sat down.

Tao Huijun asked: "What event is today?"

Wang Jingxue replied helplessly: "At ten o'clock in the morning, it's Duo Duo's new album release ceremony. We all have to go there to support, so we have to arrive about half an hour in advance, and before that, we have to go to the company to make an appointment in advance. After attending the ceremony, we will continue to practice songs in the afternoon, and we still have two songs that we haven’t grasped too well, so we need to continue to practice.”

Tao Huijun nodded, and asked directly: "Recently, Xiaoqian hasn't asked about your new album?"

The unhappiness on Wang Jingxue's face became more and more serious, but she still answered seriously: "The company has recently hired a few new producers, all of whom are big names in the industry. It is said that Sony will sue for violating the non-competition agreement. So the company is preparing to build a legal department, and Mr. Qi has to contact many lawyers..."

Tao Huijun interrupted her, "You know, that's not what I asked."

Wang Jingxue took a deep breath, expressionless, "Yes, he made a song for Liao Liao a few days ago, I don't know what it is for, it doesn't seem to be a new album, and it is said to be an English song, and he has been busy recently Exams, I have to go out with Xiao Lu to look at the land, and then, you know, Liao Liao and Zhou Mo are very busy recently. Liao Liao is fine, he is in charge of making an album for a newcomer in the company, and Zhou Mo just has nothing to do all day ,so……"

Tao Huijun interrupted her again unceremoniously, "Where is that Xie Bing? Does she have nothing to do with Xiaoqian?"

Wang Jingxue frowned, then raised her head suddenly, "Mom!"

Hearing the dissatisfaction in her voice, Tao Huijun said slowly: "Xiaoxue, you know, mom is doing it for your own good!"

Hearing this, Wang Jingxue returned to her expressionless expression again. After a moment of silence, she took a deep breath, and then said: "Mom, I've already told you that I don't like him anymore, and I'm so busy, I don't like him at all. If you don't have the time and energy to like someone, don't push me to his side, okay?"

Tao Huijun nodded when she heard the words. Wang Jingxue just wanted to get up and leave with a sigh of relief, but she suddenly said: "When your album is finished, I will call him over for a meal. When the time comes, you should be mentally prepared. Will ask him to make an album for you alone."

Wang Jingxue was slightly stunned when she heard the words. After a while, her anger seemed to have reached its peak. Although she was holding back, her voice became louder and louder uncontrollably, "Mom, I know you are really doing it for me. But Li Qian is not what you think, he will respect you just because you are Xiaolu's mother, but you have to know that his respect for you must have a bottom line! He is not an ordinary person, he is A talented man! He has created such a big business at such a young age, do you think he is something you can handle at will? Like me and Xiaolu?"

Tao Huijun looked up at her after hearing the words, with a calm demeanor, and his tone was as peaceful as ever, without the slightest sparkle, nor with any emotion or warmth, and asked in such a flat manner: "Then what do you mean? "

Wang Jingxue waved his hands weakly, "Please don't interfere with my affairs, Xiaolu's affairs with him, or my affairs with him, please? In the music industry, no one in China can guide him. No one has that qualification, he thinks I can do it, so he will help me, but he thinks I can't, you have to bring it up, isn't it embarrassing for him?"

Tao Huijun smiled and sighed, "Silly boy!"

After a pause, he said: "In this world, there has never been an absolute can or can't, and I believe there won't be one with Li Qian, so if we can advance your own solo album by one year, why not?"

While talking, she smiled, and pointed to the portable CD that was placed on the coffee table, "Sima Duoduo, is there anything better than you? Looks? Dance? Or voice? Singing skills? But she went to Sony and went solo. , and you went to join your brother-in-law, are you not qualified to fly solo? Of course not, Xiaoxue, you trust your mother!"

Wang Jingxue took a deep breath and said nothing.

Everyone was the same at the beginning, and even before they went their separate ways, Sima Duoduo was already slightly inferior to her in every aspect. Even in dancing, which she has always been best at, Wang Jingxue was confident that she was no worse than her. But, yes, Sima Duoduo's new album will be released soon, and the trial version was also given away in advance, while I continue to make groups in Minghu Culture, but to be honest, I have some envy, but it is not too strong.

Because she knew that Rose Power would definitely become popular, but Sima Duoduo's solo flight had an uncertain future.

Yes, her album is very tasteful and sounds good, but can it sell well? It's really hard to say!

Is it better to be a three-person combination that is very popular, or is it better to hit the street after flying solo?

Any fool knows which one to choose!

It's just...as a singer, no one doesn't want to release an album by himself!

To some extent, Sima Duoduo did what she, Xie Bing, and Sun Ruoxuan wanted to do but didn't dare to do!

And the three of them chose to join Minghu Culture, hoping that apart from the group, Li Qian could also help them make a solo album-in fact, they all wanted to go solo, but they just wanted more Safer solo flight!

Therefore, although she felt that it would be inappropriate for her mother to always try to force Li Qian to do something for herself, in the end, she also knew that, among other things, at least this one, her mother really wanted to help herself.

So, after a moment of silence, she said: "At least wait until our album is released, okay? At least wait until we have achieved certain results, it will be easier to talk about it, right?"

Tao Huijun thought for a while, then nodded, "Okay, then it's up to you!"

Wang Jingxue sighed, not feeling relieved at all, but feeling more and more depressed.

After a pause, she got up again, and before she went to change her clothes, she couldn't help calling back, "Mom..."

Tao Huijun looked up at her, "Huh?"

Wang Jingxue hesitated for a moment, but said nothing, just smiled, "It's okay." Then she turned her head and walked away.

…………

The launch ceremony held by Sony for Sima Duoduo's new album "Flying Alone" is not small.

As teammates and friends from the previous Wuxingwusu period, the other members of the former Wuxingwusu also showed up with dignity—whether it was Minghu Culture, Huage Records, or fighting Sony Records under the stage. No matter how powerful it is, the industry, especially the exchanges and mutual support among singers, will still not impose restrictions.

After the grand launch ceremony, they said a few words of compliments during the interview and sent blessings one after another. Then, Wang Jingxue, Xie Bing, Sun Ruoxuan and others left the conference site under the escort of their assistants.

In the underground parking lot, I happened to meet Zhou Pingping who was about to leave. Everyone was going to leave after a simple greeting. However, Zhou Pingping’s commercial vehicle drove to the side and stopped. : "Ruoxuan, your album is September?"

Sun Ruoxuan answered her with a smile, "Yes, it was announced last year, why, you also chose September?"

Zhou Pingping shrugged, "Who knows, I have to listen to the boss."

Sun Ruoxuan was about to make a joke when she heard the words, but after she finished speaking, Zhou Pingping's body retracted, and the windows of the car were raised at the same time. Then, the Toyota commercial vehicle quickly started and ran away from the three people with a swipe. opened.

"Depend on!"

Sun Ruoxuan couldn't help but swear, pointing at the car, "What does she mean? What are you dragging!"

Wang Jingxue frowned slightly, and said calmly: "Maybe she thinks that the Five Elements are all the same if we have us or not!"

Sun Ruoxuan gritted her teeth with hatred, "It's a pity that I still treat her as a sister!" Then she said to Xie Bing and Wang Jingxue: "Although we are separated, there is no need to do this, right? Look at her posture just now, it seems that she only needs Hua Ge's Telling them to release an album in September, it seems like they are going to eat us! Where did she come from so confident!"

Wang Jingxue said slowly after hearing the words: "Hua Ge let them send it in September? Let Huang Dazhong have the courage to see if he dares!"

Xie Bing, who hadn't spoken all this time, sighed at this moment, "Forget it, won't you know everything when everyone's album is released? Get in the car, let's not stay here, it's really cold in the underground garage."

Wang Jingxue and Sun Ruoxuan looked at each other and got into the car respectively.

However, even after getting into the car, Sun Ruoxuan still didn't feel angry in her stomach. She couldn't help but blah blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Gradually calm down a lot.

Li Qian seldom asked them about the progress of their new album practice, but the new producers who came to the company were not easy at all, especially Teacher He Weihe who was assigned to be in charge of their new album. But they are also well-known masters in the industry. Although Rose Power is Li Qian's direct descendant, but in front of Teacher He, the little girls still have to be obedient and practice singing and dancing obediently.

Back in the company, when walking through the corridor, she accidentally heard someone discussing something in the audition room, so Sun Ruoxuan knocked on the door, carefully opened the door and looked inside.

Several masters from the production department of the company were there, as was Mr. He Wei, and Li Qian was also there.

The faces of the three people were full of brilliance.

Sun Ruoxuan spoke quickly, and said directly: "Are the teachers in a meeting? Is anyone praising us?"

In the audition room, everyone laughed.

Li Qian beckoned them to come in, so the three girls filed in.

Then Li Qian asked with a smile: "How is it? Was the debut ceremony lively? Who went?"

As usual, Sun Ruoxuan was the answering machine, and she couldn't wait for anyone to speak, so she counted the heads with her fingers, "In addition to the three of us, Li Xinru also went, and he didn't seem very friendly to us, and Zhou Feng, Zhang Chang, Ah, by the way, Zhou Pingping also went."

At this time, when the name Zhou Pingping was mentioned again, Sun Ruoxuan's expression could not change.

Li Qian nodded and asked, "Have you heard her new album? What do you think of it?"

As soon as he asked, several professionals in the room stared at the three girls.

Sun Ruoxuan hesitated for a moment, and replied: "Is it okay? I quite like it. Dodo himself likes this way the most. It's very refreshing and a bit...literary!" At this point, she couldn't help it. Question: "By the way, I listened to this album last night and saw a piece by Mr. Cao Zhan?"

At this time, it was He Wei who answered her, "Old Cao is a literary fan!"

But Li Qian just smiled, then turned to look at Xie Bing.

Xie Bing thought for a while and said, "I also think it's pretty good, but whether it can sell well... I don't know."

Li Qian nodded, and then turned his gaze to Wang Jingxue's face.

Wang Jingxue was breathless for a moment, but then she said calmly: "I think this album may be a little less popular, and I think it will have a good reputation, but the sales... I'm not very optimistic about it."

Speaking of this, she looked at Li Qian very seriously, as if she was waiting for Li Qian to comment on her judgment, or at least give a little response, but no. Li Qian just nodded, then turned his eyes away, and said, "I have a little more time now. I heard from Mr. He that your song "Tomorrow Will Be Better" hasn't been practiced very well yet? So, how about it?" , should I practice first, or start recording other things while practicing?"

"Start recording!"

The three girls spoke almost in unison.

Everyone laughed when they heard the words.

Li Qian also smiled, turned his head and said to He Wei: "Then Teacher He, you are the main player, and I will assist, OK?"

He Wei looked at the three girls with a smile and said, "I'm afraid the three of them will be disappointed?"

The question and answer between the two made Wang Jingxue and Sun Ruoxuan stunned for a moment, but soon, Sun Ruoxuan was the first to react, and said with a smile at that time: "How could it be! Teacher He personally came out, we are too happy! "

However, she still hurriedly said to Li Qian, "But boss, your words don't count. Do you want to treat me to dinner?"

Li Qian and He Wei both laughed when they heard the words, "It's okay to invite you to dinner, but you all have to cheer me up, the first album, we have to give a good lesson to the new generation of singers in China , Tell them: This is called pop music!"

Everyone smiled and nodded.

However, the smile on Wang Jingxue's face felt a bit forced no matter how you looked at it.

And when everyone walked out of the audition room while chatting and laughing, her back was unconsciously more lonely.

The company has grown bigger and bigger, and suddenly there are several more producers, maybe... even if he goes solo in the future, he won't be the one who makes his own album, right?

In that case, flying solo does not seem to make much sense.

…………

Wang Jingxue excused herself to go to the bathroom, ran to wash her face, and then felt a little calmer. After looking in the mirror for a long time, she came out, but just as she came out of the bathroom, she saw Li Qian standing not far outside the bathroom.

After she was stunned for a moment, Li Qian had already seen her, so he smiled and waited for her to come over.

Wang Jingxue also squeezed out a smile and walked over.

Li Qian asked: "Sister Jingxue, you seem to... have something on your mind?"

Wang Jingxue shook her head, "No, it's just... I've been thinking about song practice and recording, and my mind keeps wandering."

Li Qian nodded, paused for a moment, and said slowly: "I haven't told anyone about this decision so far. Let me say hello to you in advance. You should be mentally prepared. If there are no accidents, in the second half of this year, I will Will find time to make an album for you, your own!"

Wang Jingxue couldn't help being stunned upon hearing this.

Li Qian smiled again, and said, "Don't say anything." Then he turned and walked away.

Slightly losing his composure, Wang Jingxue was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said: "You... wait!"

Li Qian turned around and looked at her, "What's the matter?"

Wang Jingxue wanted to ask a lot of things, and wanted to say more, but at this moment, she just shook her head and said, "It's okay."

Li Qian nodded, smiled, clenched his fist and waved, "Come on!"

Wang Jingxue smiled, then watched him walk into the rehearsal room.

Slowly taking a deep breath, the first expression on her face was naturally happiness, but then, when she thought that if she really made this album, she might have to spend many days with him day and night, she would He couldn't help frowning again.

"what to do?"
