Chapter 223 Chen Xueqi is stuck in the neck (please subscribe)

Although Wang Xuan no longer cares much about the regular season singer, he is still a little happy to defend his title again.

On the other side, Chen Xueqi was not very happy.

After being tired of Wang Xuan for two days, Chen Xueqi felt much better and returned to Yanjing. She actually wanted to go back and have a good chat with the company to see if she could still fight for it, but in the end she couldn't even see the company director.

.

At this time, Chen Xueqi, Guo Hong and assistant Xiaoqin stayed in Guo Hong's office.

Chen Xueqi's pretty forehead wrinkled slightly, and her face looked a little unhappy.

Guo Hong on the side was extremely angry and said nothing with a straight face.

Assistant Xiaomei was equally angry. She also revealed the reason why Chen Xueqi and Guo Hong were angry: "Sister Hong, how can the company go back on its word like this? We agreed before to help sister Xueqi nominate the top ten golden melody awards of the year, and let sister Xueqi

I sang the opening song at the music festival award ceremony, but now it all goes to Cai Jiajia, why?"

This is why Chen Xueqi and Guo Hong are in a bad mood.

The annual awards ceremony of the Music Chart is the biggest annual event in the Chinese music world. It has countless viewers, not only in the mainland, but also in Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas.

If she can sing at a music ceremony, it will definitely increase Chen Xueqi's popularity tremendously.

The Top Ten Golden Melody Awards are also good. This is a heavyweight honor, and it also plays a great role in increasing Chen Xueqi's popularity.

The company had previously promised to help Chen Xueqi nominate the top ten golden melody awards, and also agreed to sing at the opening of the music festival, but it suddenly became unclear. Chen Xueqi originally negotiated with the company when she returned to the company, and she won the top ten golden melody awards.

No need, as long as you sing at the opening of the music festival.

As a result, when she returned to the company, she couldn't even see the director of the company, Cheng Kun, or even the head of the artist department, Luo Yun.

Afterwards, it was reported that Cai Jiajia was selected to perform at the top ten Golden Melody Awards and the opening vocals of music festivals.

Guo Hong wanted to go to Cheng Kun, the director of Huayi, but was rejected.

No wonder the two of them were so depressed.

"It's obvious that the company wants to favor Cai Jiajia." Guo Hong said.

"But how can Cai Jiajia compare with Sister Xueqi? Her image is not as good as that of Sister Xueqi, and her voice condition and singing ability cannot be compared with Sister Xueqi. Why does the company want to praise her?" Xiaomei is puzzled.

"But I obey the company's arrangements and accept all activities, including some non-essential dinner parties." Guo Hong said with some disdain.

"Tsk, isn't that what high-level public relations are? Can you feel at ease with the opportunities obtained through this method?" Xiaomei said.

Guo Hong shook her head and said nothing. She was a professional agent and knew that in a giant company like Huayi, it was unavoidable for artists to occasionally attend dinner parties and the like. Chen Xueqi was an exception, which was the result of her full protection.

But now the company is becoming increasingly dissatisfied with her protection of Chen Xueqi.

Recently, Huayi actually wanted Chen Xueqi to attend a high-end cocktail party, but she declined because Chen Xueqi was unwell. After that, there were rumors within the company that Cai Jiajia would be selected for the top ten golden melody awards.

Guo Hong knew that it was a warning. But she knew better what kind of person Chen Xueqi was. It was impossible for Chen Xueqi to attend these cocktail parties. So when the company tried to flirt with her intentionally or unintentionally, she still declined directly.

After that, the rumors got louder and louder, and there was even news that Cai Jiajia would be chosen as the opening song of the music festival.

The company came again to test her tone.

Guo Hong was helpless.

If the company just asked Chen Xueqi to participate in an event, no matter how bad the event was, she would hold her nose and agree to it for Chen Xueqi in order to be the opening song of the Top Ten Golden Melody Awards and the music festival. But the cocktail party would definitely not work.

So Guo Hong still chose to refuse. She argued with the company and showed off Chen Xueqi's advantages, but the company was very firm.

The company's intention is that either Chen Xueqi will attend the cocktail party and expand contacts for the company, and accordingly, the company will give Chen Xueqi countless resources, even if it makes her the company's number one. Or she will fend for herself. The company is more willing to give resources to the obedient

people.

Naturally, we can't talk about this anymore, and we're back to square one.

Guo Hong knew that the company had always been dissatisfied with Chen Xueqi, thinking that Chen Xueqi had such good external conditions but was unwilling to contribute to the company, causing the company to lose many opportunities.

Therefore, the resources Chen Xueqi has received at Huayi have always been average. For example, none of Chen Xueqi's songs were composed by top songwriters. Since her debut, the song "Ask for Love" in May this year should be the best that Chen Xueqi has received.

song. But it was still only a song written by a gold medal songwriter, and it was a song she used her connections to make an appointment with Ye Luo, a gold medal songwriter outside the company.

Before and after the song was uploaded, the company did not spend too much effort to help promote it. Otherwise, with Huayi's publicity resources, Guo Hong felt that "Ask for Love" would at least be in the top three.

Also, many resources, such as the spokesperson for Tencent's game "Cross Fire", were actually found for Chen Xueqi by Guo Hong using her own connections. The company paid very little to Chen Xueqi.

Perhaps Chen Xueqi's counterattack and championship-winning song when she first debuted was the biggest resource the company ever paid for Chen Xueqi. Otherwise, given Chen Xueqi's conditions, how could she still be a second-tier singer three years later?

If the company was willing to pay a little more, Chen Xueqi would have already become a first-tier singer.

In the past, the company's dissatisfaction with Chen Xueqi was kept secret, but now it has been put on the table.

Two days ago, before the reception, the company approached her again and gave her an ultimatum. But at that time, Chen Xueqi was still in Shanghai, so Guo Hong didn't even bother to ask Chen Xueqi, so she rejected the company.

After that, Cai Jiajia went to a cocktail party, and then Cai Jiajia was chosen to perform as the opening singer for the Top Ten Golden Melody Awards and the music festival.

Chen Xueqi curled her lips, she naturally knew what the reception meant, but she entered the entertainment industry because she liked singing and wanted more fans to hear her singing, not to be a senior publicist for Huayi.

If Huayi wants to threaten her with resources and let her become a senior public relations officer, then it is looking for the wrong person.

Another thing, she had played several games alone with a male player in the game before, and Wang Xuan was already jealous. If Wang Xuan knew that she went to a cocktail party to accompany him everywhere, how could he handle it?

"I'll go talk to the director again. Although Cai Jiajia has been decided for the time being, there is still such a long time and there is no room for relaxation. Anyway, as long as the dust has not settled, anything is possible." Guo Hong was angry for a long time.

He said after getting too angry.

"Forget it, Sister Hong, the company has made it clear that it wants to force me to submit, but it is impossible for me to attend cocktail parties and dinners. If you want to hide it, just hide it. The worst is, I won't sing anymore." Chen Xueqi said.

"Qiqi, don't be angry. You are not alone now, you still have many fans. Your fans are very loyal to you, you can't let them down, right?" Guo Hong said.

"Anyway, I can't accept receptions and the like. Let the company do whatever they want. I still have a 2-year contract with Huayi. At worst, I will be releasing a song in two years. At worst, I will terminate the contract directly. Isn't that just liquidated damages?

." Chen Xueqi curled her lips and said.

"Only you can say the words 'no, it's just liquidated damages.'" Guo Hongxin said. In fact, if Chen Xueqi wanted to forcefully terminate the contract, the liquidated damages would be quite high, up to 80 million yuan in liquidated damages.

In the past three years, Chen Xueqi has not participated in many commercial performances and activities, and her income is not much, not even half of the liquidated damages. But she can't stand up to her family background.

"It's not to that point. In fact, the company just doesn't provide resources. If we can find the resources ourselves, the company can't take care of it. The contract you signed with the company doesn't stipulate that you can't accept activities, as long as it doesn't damage the company's image." Guo

Hong said.

In fact, these words were somewhat comforting to Chen Xueqi.

The company has now made it clear that it wants to force Chen Xueqi to submit. Even if they find the resources, Huayi will probably still be stuck.

It is too easy for a giant company like Huayi to try to choke its artists. Once Chen Xueqi breaks up with the company, as long as the company makes an announcement to the outside world, it will be difficult for Chen Xueqi to find resources.

Although she has found a lot of resources for Chen Xueqi, those people are willing to sell her face because she is Huayi's biggest agent. What many people are actually selling is Huayi's face.

Thinking of this, Guo Hong sighed.

"It's okay, Sister Hong. Isn't it just a Top Ten Golden Melody Award? If it's gone, it's gone. I will win the Best Golden Melody Award in the future!" Seeing Guo Hong sigh, Chen Xueqi comforted Guo Hong.

"Oh! Yes, I am ambitious." Guo Hong smiled. The top ten hits of the year means that ten songs will be selected every year, but there is only one best hit of the year. The two are not on the same level.

For example, this year, based on the quality, Chen Xueqi's "Asking for Love" is actually qualified to be selected into the top ten golden songs. Whether it can be selected is another matter. But the best golden song is definitely the epoch-making song "East Wind Break". There will be no

Accident.

Chen Xueqi's words instead ignited Guo Hong's fighting spirit. Wasn't it because the company refused to provide resources? Then she would use her own connections to find resources for Chen Xueqi. She decided to use her connections to invite Chen Xueqi to new songs.

After all, Chen Xueqi's celebrity status is still not enough. If Chen Xueqi was a first-line singer, Huayi would definitely not treat her like this. After all, first-line singers represent popularity, and popularity represents boundless interests. Who would be in trouble with the interests?

In fact, Chen Xueqi wanted to sing the opening song of the music festival for the sake of popularity. Including the Top Ten Golden Melody Awards, it was also for the sake of popularity, but now it seems that these two paths are not feasible.

In the next two days, Guo Hong worked non-stop and shamelessly found the top songwriter Wang Yinhua. Wang Yinghua is very powerful. He ranks fourth among the top songwriters and is a freelance composer.

Guo Hong and Wang Yinhua collaborated once before.

At that time, Wang Yinhua was not a top songwriter, and was very depressed. Guo Hong's cooperation with him was a timely help for him. Because of this, Wang Yinhua owed Guo Hong a favor. After Guo Hong came to visit, Wang Yinhua

I agreed and sent a song to Guo Hong.

The quality of the song sounded very good. Both Guo Hong and Chen Xueqi were quite satisfied, and were about to negotiate the price with Wang Yinhua, but Wang Yinhua called the song directly: "I'm sorry, Xiao Guo, I may not be able to give you this song."

Guo Hong was stunned: "Why?"

"Actually, I have sent this song to other people, but there has been no reply yet. You just happened to find me, and I thought that I owed you a favor before, so I planned to give this song to Xue Qi first. But

They just responded, and I rejected them on the grounds that the song had already been given to someone else.

As a result, they said they were willing to pay double the price. I told them it was not a matter of price.

He then asked who he had given it to. I thought that this song would be released in the future, and I would not be able to hide it from anyone, so I told them. As a result, I soon received a call from a big shot. This song was

There is nothing I can do for Xue Qi."

".A big shot in Huayi?" Guo Hong asked.

"Yes, but I can't reveal who it is because I can't afford to offend him. I'm sorry." After Wang Yinhua finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Guo Hong was so angry that she wanted to throw her phone away.

Do you still need to guess who is the big shot at Huayi? It’s either the director Cheng Kun, the head of the artist department Luo Yun, or the head of the music department Wu Jun. A big shot that top composers like Wang Yinhua can’t afford to offend, except

There is no one left among these three people.

Obviously, the company has now started to get stuck on Chen Xueqi's neck.
