Chapter 163: Even the big star wants to join the show!

Jiang Cheng brought Ye Qing and Chu Siqi, two beauties, and set off for Chen Yongwang's recording studio, which is also Chen Yongwang's younger brother.

It was convenient to return the car; the day before yesterday, when he went to participate in the show, he had still borrowed Chen Yongwang's unused van parked at the shop entrance, and went with Su Manyao.

Just as they arrived at Chen Yongwang's shop entrance, after getting out of the car they saw Chen Yongwang and the shop's people outside basking in the sun and chatting.

"Oh ho, our big star has arrived!"

"After parting for three days, one should look at each other with new eyes!"

Chen Yongwang walked over, warmly greeting them; the mixer behind him and the shop staff also looked at Jiang Cheng and the two women beside him.

Jiang Cheng tossed the keys to Chen Yongwang.

"You're blind, otherwise I'd switch to another recording studio." Jiang Cheng said.

Chen Yongwang immediately put on a stern face, "Don't do that!"

"Our studio is professional; you must trust my skills. Even if you later want to set up your own recording studio for a company, you can come to me to have it built!"

Chen Yongwang inadvertently launched another round of advertising.

Then he led Jiang Cheng upstairs to the second floor; nowadays Jiang Cheng is a major client of their shop.

The most important thing is that Jiang Cheng has become famous, and along with him, Ye Qing has also gained fame.

"You've been really hot lately; speaking of which, after this show you and Ye Qing will truly become big stars."

"I don't want to be any big star." Jiang Cheng said.

The group came to the second floor, and Chen Yongwang asked, "Are we also recording a new song today?"

"Yes, two in total."

Jiang Cheng took out a USB drive and gave it to Chen Yongwang; inside were two original songs that have never appeared in this world before.

He wasn't worried that Chen Yongwang would steal the songs, after all such things are backed up; if a lawsuit ever arose, the thief would surely lose, and as a recording studio Chen Yongwang also has his own professional ethics.

"Alright, I'll call Liangjingyu now." Chen Yongwang said, then took out his phone and dialed the number right away.

The Liangjingyu Chen Yongwang referred to is the young lady who films videos for Ye Qing, a photographer who has long collaborated with Chen Yongwang's studio.

Now she is also acquainted with Jiang Cheng, having already filmed several songs for Ye Qing.

Jiang Cheng said, "Does she record outdoor scenes, that is, shoot MVs?"

Today upon learning that Ye Qing's song released online easily earned a million, Jiang Cheng thought whether his work should also be upgraded.

For a song that makes this much money, at least it should have an MV, right?

Always filming in this recording studio, wouldn't that be a bit monotonous?

Chen Yongwang said, "It should be fine; anyway Liangjingyu now also runs her own small studio, with not much business."

Not long after, Liangjingyu arrived, holding a video camera.

Liangjingyu today wore a tight tank top, revealing a strip of snow-white belly at her navel, with ultra-short denim shorts below and sneakers on her feet.

She looked full of energy.

Wearing a baseball cap on her head, it always makes people want to see her facial features clearly.

Jiang Cheng roughly told her his requirements, and Liangjingyu readily said, "Of course! Ye Qing is now a big star; letting me be her exclusive photographer is fine—I look forward to cooperating!"

Liangjingyu agreed quickly, so Jiang Cheng said no more, and told her to bring Ye Qing to film the MV after finishing today's recording.

Thus Liangjingyu sat with her in the lounge outside the recording studio, not going back into the booth to record. However, she had completed the backing track, then handed it to Ye Qing, letting him go into the studio to record the song.

"You write songs really amazingly!"

In the outside lounge, Jiang Cheng, Chu Siqi, and Liangjingyu sat together chatting, and Liangjingyu praised Jiang Cheng.

Then she said, "If only I had met you earlier."

As soon as she spoke, she paused, her expression stiffening. Jiang Cheng curiously asked, "What's wrong?"

Liangjingyu thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "Nothing, never mind, I won't say it."

Then she sat alone on the sofa and started playing with her phone.

Chu Siqi beside him suddenly shook Jiang Cheng and said, "Boss, quick look, the play count has increased by another 30%!"

Jiang Cheng didn't know what this figure meant, but if calculated as 30% of 1.8 million, that would be 600,000?

"Another 600,000 earned?" Jiang Cheng asked.

Chu Siqi said, "It's not exactly another 600,000; it's roughly that. From when we left the company until now, the play count over this period has increased by 30%, which should be over 600,000. At this rate, I estimate we could earn three million today."

"That's fierce." Jiang Cheng also said somewhat dazedly.

After a while, Liangjingyu, sitting nearby playing with her phone, suddenly said, "How come he also wants to join your show?"

She held her phone and looked at Jiang Cheng.

"Who?"

!

Jiang Cheng asked.

Liangjingyu sat down beside Jiang Cheng, holding her phone up to him to show.

"Look, it's him, Zhang Anqi."

"He wants to join our show?"

This is something Jiang Cheng didn't know.

He saw on Liangjingyu's phone display Zhang Anqi's blog, whose content was exactly his announcement that he would participate in the Jin Ge Shou variety show.

Then Jiang Cheng recalled the message he received this morning, asking them to invite a guest.

Jiang Cheng quickly realized that someone must have invited Zhang Anqi.

To be precise, it shouldn't be that they invited Zhang Anqi, but rather these already-famous stars, sensing the traffic, actively came knocking!

Even if Jiang Cheng weren't in the entertainment circle, this logic would be quickly understood.

"What's up, do you know Zhang Anqi?" Jiang Cheng asked.

He noticed that when Liangjingyu had just shown him her phone, her tone clearly carried personal emotion.

Liangjingyu said: "We knew each other before he became famous; earlier he wasn't at his current company, and once for a commercial shoot I was the one who photographed him."

He has a belly, and the photos turned out bad because I didn't pick good angles for him.

But at that time the photos were still the originals, unedited.

Later he used that as a reason to complain to my boss, which got me fired.

I still remember his despicable face to this day.

Don't be fooled by how beautiful and graceful he looks on screen; in reality his character is terrible, he won't let you off even when you're right, and he's downright unreasonable.

There's more like that?

Jiang Cheng pursed his lips and didn't say more; he didn't like gossiping behind people's backs.

Liangjingyu suddenly asked: 'He's also on this show, presumably competing; can't you beat him, rub that big-star face of his into the ground?'

Jiang Cheng smiled helplessly, 'I'll do my best.'

He hasn't even secured his own guests yet—where would he get the idea to rub someone's face in the ground?

While he and Liangjingyu were chatting, the recording studio door suddenly opened and Chen Yongwang came out, but tears were hanging on his face.

His eyes were also red; upon seeing Jiang Cheng he covered his face.

Jiang Cheng was bewildered—how could recording a song make someone cry?

Following Chen Yongwang out came the sound engineer, his eyes also brimming with tears; as soon as he saw Jiang Cheng he could no longer hold back, burying his face in the doorframe beside him and bursting into tears.

What's going on here?
