Chapter 45 You won’t be cannon fodder
In the box.
The waiter finally came to his senses and stammered: "He...he smashed the tea tray."
The boss slapped her in the face: "What a piece of shit, this is called imperfect beauty."
Turn around.
With a smile on his face, the boss greeted Hao Mingxing: "Sir, your skills are really great. Today is an eye-opener for me. I mean what I said just now, and I will give you free of charge for all your purchases in this box today." .Also, I took away this tea tray and brought you a new one right away."
As he said that, the boss immediately walked out carefully holding the tea tray with a hole in it.
Wang Mo looked at the direction in which the boss was leaving and frowned: "This boss is probably a little cautious. He is most likely going to use the tea tray that you smashed, Brother Xing, to gain attention and attract customers."
"It doesn't matter."
Hao Mingxing shook his head.
Wang Mo then looked at Hao Mingxing with a complicated expression: "Brother Xing, your kung fu is so powerful, right?"
Hao Mingxing shook his head and said: "The tea tray is made of fir, and the material is not hard. It can be said that as long as you have some skills, you can basically break it. If it is replaced by sandalwood, it may not be possible."
Wang Mo thought to himself: Let alone fir, I can't break even the composite board.
Seeing the shock in Wang Mo's eyes, Hao Mingxing smiled and said, "Is Brother Mo so interested in martial arts?"
"certainly."
Wang Mo said without hesitation.
What boy doesn’t have a martial arts dream?
I really don’t understand why Hao Mingxing has such a special liking for music when he has such martial arts skills.
People's interests and hobbies are often magical.
fine.
Wang Mo's interests and hobbies have always been normal and very specific: he has only liked 18-year-old girls since he was a child, and that has never changed.
soon.
The boss brought a brand new tea tray and a can of good tea. At the same time, he respectfully gave Hao Mingxing and Wang Mo each a business card, saying that if they come to eat at his place in the future, they will get a 40% discount on everything.
Apparently the drunkard boss didn't care about drinking, but wanted to get acquainted with Hao Mingxing, a "martial arts master".
However, Hao Mingxing just nodded lightly and did not respond.
…
Hao Mingxing is not a sociable person.
During the meal, he tried hard to find a topic, but every time he said two sentences and then broke off.
This is the case for many people with social phobia. Sometimes even if they try hard to talk to others, they don't know how to initiate a conversation or what to say.
He is very good at creating embarrassment.
Fortunately, Wang Mo didn't care, otherwise this meal would have been nothing but embarrassing.
Wang Mo simply took the initiative and asked: "Brother Xing, have you been rushing to make announcements for more than a month?"
Hao Mingxing nodded: "Yes, they are all activities and commercial performances... And every time there is an event, the organizer will definitely ask me to sing "It Doesn't Matter", and I will sing it several times in a row. I sang it once and twice at the beginning. Okay. Ten or twenty times is acceptable. But if you sing it one or two hundred times, to be honest, now that I hear the song "It Doesn't Matter", I feel a little nauseous."
"Hahaha."
Wang Mo laughed.
Many singers who became famous because of a song have probably gone through this process.
Hao Mingxing is like this.
Su Xueyao will do the same.
He remembered that in his previous life, after Pang Rong became popular with his song "Two Butterflies", he sang this song for several years. At the end of the song, Pang Rong himself said that he felt like throwing up after reading the words of "Two Butterflies".
Wang Mo asked: "Did the company write any other songs for you?"
Hao Mingxing said: "Yes, after "It Doesn't Matter" became popular. Brother Mo, your composition department customized three songs for me, but after the audition, I found that they were all unsatisfactory. The singing was very uninspiring, and I didn't sing "It Doesn't Matter" at all. ", so after discussing with my manager, Mr. Qian, Mr. Liu and others, I gave up releasing new songs. Because my manager said that we must be careful when releasing songs now and not be too hasty. After all, " "It doesn't matter" is still trending. If the quality of the new songs I release is not good, it will be easily criticized and the gain will outweigh the loss."
"Well, you're right to do that."
Wang Mo nodded.
He somewhat understood Hao Mingxing's character.
After many singers become famous, they basically release a large number of songs quickly.
The first is to waste money while it’s hot.
The second is that if a second song becomes popular, it will be a big profit.
But this kind of behavior can easily consume the enthusiasm of fans.
Therefore, many singers who suddenly became popular due to one song did not seize the opportunity and over-consumed their popularity and fame, but did not have enough good songs to support their popularity. As a result, he was quickly lost to everyone in a short period of time.
But now, Hao Mingxing is doing this, he would rather lack than waste.
Wang Mo asked: "Brother Xing, are you participating in variety shows now?"
Hao Mingxing said: "I have been an away guest once or twice, but I have been a permanent guest in variety shows. Although I have been invited by several major domestic TV stations, I have rejected them all."
Wang Mo: "Are there any singing variety shows inviting you?"
Hao Mingxing said: "Yes. Two days ago, a program team on Tomato Channel invited me to do a singing program. I'm thinking about rejecting him in the next two days."
Wang Mo asked: "What program?"
Hao Mingxing: ""Singer Style"."
Wang Mo raised his eyebrows.
This show is good!
It is a music competition program on Tomato Channel, which can be regarded as the variety show facade of Tomato Channel. The contestants participating in this show are basically well-known singers in the industry.
It's currently in its third season.
Although the first two seasons of the show did not include any singers above the A-list. However, the champions of the first and second seasons have all become the front-line music industry due to the popularity of the show and have made huge profits.
Therefore, after the third season of this year was ready to start recording, the music industry responded strongly.
I heard that there are many big names gathered here, and they are basically all capable singers from the second-tier and above music circles. There are even A-list singers who are eager to participate in the show.
Therefore, even Wang Mo was a little surprised that Hao Mingxing, a rising star in the music industry, was invited to "Singer Style".
Wang Mo asked: "Why did you refuse such a good opportunity?"
Hao Mingxing smiled bitterly: "When I went to participate in the show, I was just cannon fodder. The show team invited me probably because they wanted me to bring a wave of traffic because of my current popularity. By then, I will at most enter the second round with "It Doesn't Matter" , and then I will be eliminated miserably. Because I have no other songs to support me to go further. In this way, instead of enjoying the popularity of the show, I will lose fans."
Wang Mo smiled and said: "Go and participate."
Hao Mingxing: "Huh?"
Wang Mo: "Go and participate in this show."
Hao Mingxing: "But I will be cannon fodder if I go."
Wang Mo: "No."
Hao Mingxing: "Huh?"
Wang Mo: "Participating in an important music program like "Singer Style" can help you increase your popularity in the music world as quickly as possible, lay a solid foundation, and avoid many detours. As for the song question, I will give you Solve it. I happened to write a song recently, and I think it suits you very well. That’s why I’m looking for you today. I’ll send you the song when I get back, and you can try it out first.”
After finishing speaking, Wang Mo continued to pick up vegetables.
Blood duck is so delicious.
And next to Hao Mingxing, the hand holding the chopsticks was frozen in mid-air.
