Lingzi is not too cold today

Chapter 205 Broker Zhuang Xiaomeng
"Aunt Zhang, how do managers dress?"

Zhuang Xiaomeng came to Zhang Yana with a suit and asked in a low voice.

"Okay, I'll teach you."

Zhang Yana looked at the girl in front of her, her serious face became gentle.

Although she knew that this girl was only doing an internship for fun, but facing the younger generation, she still pampered her from the bottom of her heart.

In front of the mirror, she helped Zhuang Xiaomeng change into her uniform, tied up her hair, and put on professional makeup.

The professional makeup doesn't look too heavy, it looks very capable, with the temperament of an independent career woman, and looks much more mature.

"At the top of the dress, hip skirts and stockings, as well as high heels are also must-haves."

"As an agent, your image is also your artist's image."

After dressing up, Zhang Yana looked at Zhuang Xiaomeng in front of her and nodded with satisfaction.

"So when it comes to dressing, you have to pay more attention."

“Image management is also very important.”

"Plus, the agent's job is not that easy."

"Some important contracts and cooperation matters need to be negotiated by you."

"But don't worry, Xiaojin doesn't receive endorsements and commercials very much, and doesn't appear in variety shows. So your workload is not heavy."

"If he wants to accept business cooperation, if you have something you don't understand, come to me and I will solve it. You watch from the side and learn the process carefully."

"If you don't understand, ask me afterwards."

Zhang Yana smiled slightly, exhorting her sincerely.

"Okay, I see, Aunt Zhang."

Zhuang Xiaomeng looked around in the mirror and was quite satisfied.

That night, Zhuang Xiaomeng lay on the bed, too excited to sleep.

Tomorrow is the first day of the internship, so she is inevitably a little nervous.

Like many students who have graduated and entered the society, I am somewhat hesitant about entering the adult world.

"It's okay, it's just a broker, you can do it."

Early the next morning, as soon as the alarm clock rang, Zhuang Xiaomeng kicked off the quilt and immediately bounced off the bed.

I hurried to the bathroom to wash up, washed my hair, dried it, and tied it up.

Put on a white shirt and a women's suit, straighten the collar, bend down, put the black stockings on the bare jade feet, pull them up, and wrap the slender and tight legs.

Black stockings paired with a wrap-around skirt, and her slim figure, always look inexplicably alluring.

High heels made her figure even taller and more seductive.

Facing the mirror, she put on light makeup according to Zhang Yana's request, trimmed her eyebrows, and applied lip gloss.

It looks like a refreshing and neat working woman.

Zhuang Xiaomeng smiled slightly, took a photo in the mirror, and sent it to Moments with the text "First day at work".

"Wow, baby is so beautiful."

Shi Qing was the first to like it, followed by Tong Xiaoyu and Zhang Yana.

"Mengmeng is a big girl (Rose)"

“Looks like a manager (thumbs up)”

Zhuang Xiaomeng touched his face, laughed foolishly, and walked briskly towards Gongsun Jin's room.

After taking two steps, she suddenly took back her steps.

"No, a professional manager is the face of an artist, and his walking posture must be elegant."

Thinking like this, she walked up with graceful catwalks.

The graceful figure of Pingting swayed slightly, like a willow supporting the wind.

Zhuang Xiaomeng walked back and forth in the room, feeling very satisfied.

despair!despair!
The sound of high heels hitting the floor was very crisp.

Zhong Lingzi, who was washing in the public restroom outside, looked sideways, and when he saw Zhuang Xiaomeng's outfit, his eyes widened immediately.

"Hello, Ms. Zhong, I'm Mr. Gongsun Jin's professional manager. It's an honor to meet you."

"This is my business card, and I look forward to working with you in the future."

Zhuang Xiaomeng came over, took out a business card from the collar of his clothes, leaned forward slightly, and handed it over politely with both hands.

"It's quite professional."

After Zhong Lingzi finished rinsing his mouth, spit out the toothpaste foam in his mouth, reached out to take the business card that Zhuang Xiaomeng handed over, looked at the formal photo on it, and grinned involuntarily.

Zhuang Xiaomeng also had a smile on her face, quite proud.

At this time, Gongsun Jin was busy making breakfast for Zhong Lingzi and her manager in the kitchen.

When he brought the fried dumplings and ramen to the table, he was a little surprised to see Mengmeng's attire, and looked him up and down.

Mengmeng has a cold demeanor, and after wearing a formal suit, the aloof temperament of a career woman is even more charming.

"Good morning, my agent."

"Good morning."

Zhuang Xiaomeng pulled her hair, smiled slightly, and walked around in front of him twice.

"Your manager, I thought you were a Victoria's Secret supermodel."

Zhong Lingzi joked.

Zhuang Xiaomeng is very aura when walking, it is a pity not to be a model.

"Haha, I'm really flattered that Victoria's Secret Supermodel is my agent."

After Gongsun Jin finished speaking, the three of them laughed again.

Manager Zhuang Xiaomeng blushed a little, reached out and patted his arm angrily.

When eating at the table, Zhuang Xiaomeng also became very particular and ate slowly.

Elegant manner, very particular about table manners.

"Why are you eating so gracefully today? I'm so embarrassed."

Comparing Zhong Lingzi's eating appearance with Zhuang Xiaomeng's, he looks like a savage from a primitive tribe and a royal princess.

"Elegance never goes out of style."

Zhuang Xiaomeng said seriously.

After eating, the three of them went out together. The weather was slightly cold with a little rain.

Zhuang Xiaomeng opened the umbrella professionally and covered Gongsun Jin's head.

"And me?"

Seeing that he wasn't there, Zhong Lingzi muttered softly.

"I'm not your agent."

Zhuang Xiaomeng said with a straight face.

When getting in the car, Zhuang Xiaomeng also opened the door first, spread out a hand, and motioned for Gongsun Jin to go in first.

"Go ahead, I have to drive."

Gongsun Jin couldn't help being a little funny when he saw her serious look.

"Isn't driving a broker's business?"

"There is no way to let an artist drive himself."

Zhong Lingzi smiled authentically.

Zhuang Xiaomeng was a little confused when he heard the words.

Yes, she hasn't passed the driver's license test yet.

"It's okay, my agent is also very hard, fatigue driving is not good, isn't it reasonable for me to drive?"

Gongsun Jin smiled and got into the main driver.

Zhong Lingzi was going to sit in the co-pilot as usual, but Zhuang Xiaomeng took a step ahead of her.

"It's better for the broker to sit in the co-pilot, but it's not suitable to sit in the back."

Zhong Lingzi puffed her cheeks slightly when she heard this, and sat down in the back seat angrily.

After fastening his seat belt, Zhuang Xiaomeng turned on the car music.

The first song was "Red Bean". Zhong Lingzi listened to the prelude well and wanted to sing along, but Zhuang Xiaomeng chose to cut the song directly.

Zhong Lingzi opened his mouth, hesitated to speak, and gave her an annoyed look.

It was only when Gongsun Jin's version of "Red Bean" was cut that Zhuang Xiaomeng laughed with satisfaction.

When passing the traffic light, Gongsun Jin subconsciously freed up a hand and put it on the thigh beside him.

The slippery touch of the black stockings rubs against the palm of the hand, and the warm and smooth skin tickles people's hearts.

Seeing Gongsun Jin touching her thigh, Zhuang Xiaomeng blushed slightly.

"Is it inappropriate for an artist to touch his manager's thigh?"

Zhong Lingzi, who was sitting in the back row, couldn't help saying suddenly.

"what?"

Gongsun Jin looked sideways and found that Mengmeng was beside him, and then he woke up suddenly.

Usually sitting next to him is Zhong Lingzi, he is used to it.

Today it suddenly changed to Mengmeng, and he hasn't reacted yet.

However, after putting on the stockings, Mengmeng's legs feel really addictive.

"It's not inappropriate. Many artists marry their managers anyway."

After Zhuang Xiaomeng finished speaking, she turned her face away in embarrassment, her eyes dodged, and she observed Zhong Lingzi's expression through the rearview mirror.

"No~"

Sure enough, Zhong Lingzi puffed out her cheeks again, as anxious as a kitten about to pounce on someone.

Arriving at the parking lot of the Platinum Building, Zhuang Xiaomeng got out of the car and opened the door for Gongsun Jin.

Gongsun Jin thinks that she is really cute when she is working hard with a stern face.

Zhuang Xiaomeng has been to the Platinum Media Building many times, but he has never felt much about it.

But today, he entered the arena side by side with Gongsun Jin, put on his badge to pass the case, and waited for the elevator together.

She felt a little relieved, as if she was no longer an insignificant outsider to this place, but like those busy ordinary people, she really became one of them.

With the development of their careers, both Gongsun Jin and Zhong Lingzi have their own independent offices, and they also have their own recording studios in Platinum, with the best equipment.

Of course, both Gongsun Jin and Zhong Lingzi are still used to rubbing Shiqing's recording studio.

Both his and Lingzi's recording studios were reserved for the company's juniors to use.

So both of them have a good impression on other artists in the company.

He is kind to others, has no airs at all, and often teaches vocal music to trainees.

When I was on a variety show, I often supported my juniors and gave some potential newcomers variety show resources and opportunities to perform.

Gongsun Jin and Zhong Lingzi became the dreams of all the trainees in Platinum.

One is the youngest queen in the music world, with strong strength, unlimited potential, and her appearance surpasses all idols.

One is the best musician who writes, composes, arranges and arranges, and there are countless classic songs written by him.

In order to ask Gongsun Jin to write a song, all major entertainment companies can fight for it.

Zhong Lingzi's quotation for a commercial performance is also sky-high.

The momentum of Platinum has been getting stronger and stronger in recent years, both in terms of market share and popularity, surpassing the long-established gilt and Northern Lights in the industry.

Under the influence of the siphon effect produced by Zhong Lingzi and Gongsun Jin.

Many record companies in the industry have chosen to sign with Platinum.

"What does Xu Sheng say?"

In the office, Tong Fei'er was sitting upright, with her hands clasped together, closing and separating them from time to time, her eyebrows were tightly knitted, and she looked very nervous.

Xu Sheng, a legendary singer in the music world.

For a long time, there has been a saying that "women listen to Shi Qing, and men listen to Xu Sheng".

After Gongsun Jin came to this world, she often listened to this person's songs and liked them very much.

His personal feeling is that Xu Sheng's voice has the texture of Li Zongsheng.

Slightly hoarse and vicissitudes, it sounds like a story.

Singing skills are even better than the first class.

But Xu Sheng's creative ability is not very good.

In the early years, there were many golden songs because of the close cooperation with "Ci Sheng".

They are also gold medal partners in the industry. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, the two parted ways later, which is embarrassing.

"It's difficult, Xu Sheng doesn't want to renew his contract with Liu Jin."

"All the copyrights of his songs are with Liujin, if you withdraw from Liujin."

"Not only will he have to pay more than 8000 million yuan in liquidated damages, but in the future, he will not be able to get a penny of the income from those songs."

Zhang Yana shook her head.

"Is their contract so dark?"

Tong Fei'er was also stunned.

"The industry is not far behind, it's the Platinum contract that is too conscientious."

Zhang Yana smiled lightly.

Platinum gives artists a lot of freedom, and the copyright of the songs belongs to the artist.

That's why she came to Platinum with Shi Qing in the first place.

"Then, Aunt Zhang, are you sure you'll invite Xu Sheng over?"

"If Xu Sheng also comes over,"

"It's a bit difficult, but not impossible."

Zhang Yana frowned slightly, lost in thought.

"The conflict between him and Liu Jin is far deeper than what the outside world sees. I know some inside information from his agent."

"He wanted to leave Liu Jin a long time ago. Although he has released a lot of golden songs over the years, almost all of the profits have been in the hands of Liu Jin."

"Not even the income from the concert fell into his pocket much."

"When Xu Sheng was not famous in the early years, the contract he signed with Liu Jin was to receive a fixed salary, a fixed amount of money a month."

"So he looks good on the surface, but he is actually not as good as many singers who are much worse than him."

"So, all you have to do is give a pro rata contract."

"He will be glad to come."

Zhang Yana said very seriously.

"But, do you have the courage to come up with 8000 million liquidated damages?"

"Why not? Aunt Zhang, are you questioning me?"

Tong Fei'er leaned back on the chair and smiled faintly.

"Even with these conditions, it's still not enough."

Zhang Yana poured a basin of cold water down.

"not enough?"

"Well, Xu Sheng was born to sing."

"But he is nothing without the gilt and the resource tilt of the gilt."

"Do you understand? This is his last scruple. It's also the reason why he wanted to leave Gilt a long time ago, but he has always compromised."

Zhang Yana smiled lightly.

"so……"

Tong Fei'er narrowed her eyes and suddenly realized.

"I have to take Xiao Jin with me."

Zhang Yana looked serious.

"Okay, if it works this time."

"I will add two points to Xiaojin's shares."

Tong Fei'er readily agreed.

Gongsun Jin and Zhong Lingzi, the shares of Platinum she distributed now are also shareholders of Platinum.

"You are more generous than your mother."

"Wait for my news."

Zhang Yana smiled, and left the meeting room.

In the office, Gongsun Jin was lying on a chair, looking at the world outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The office building opposite is full of busy social animals, like worker ants in a huge colony.

"Want some fruit?"

After Zhuang Xiaomeng washed the grapes, put them on a plate, and walked over with them.

"Ah~"

Gongsun Jin opened his mouth lazily.

Zhuang Xiaomeng bent down slightly, picked off a crystal grape, and fed it to his mouth.

There is always a feeling that King Zhou asked Daji to serve him.

Extravagance, depravity, hedonism.

It does not conform to the core values ​​at all, and young people in the new era should work hard to make progress.

"I can't go down like this anymore."

"I have to get up and work."

Gongsun Jin sat up from the chair, looking seriously at the busy world outside the window.

"Working..."

Zhuang Xiaomeng looked at the office building in the distance, feeling a little confused.

She didn't know if what she was doing now was work, she always felt like a child playing house, just by Gongsun Jin's side.

"Well, work."

Gongsun Jin looked at her in a daze, and probably knew what she was thinking.

"Are you thinking about the meaning of work to people?"

"Ah."

Zhuang Xiaomeng nodded.

"Humans are social animals with social attributes."

"The so-called social attribute means that people cannot exist independently of human society."

Gongsun Jin looked serious.

"In this society, people need to find the value of their own existence and need to be affirmed by others, otherwise they will be confused and doubt the value of their own existence."

"According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, when a person doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, he will want to realize his own life value."

"So, work is an important step for people to affirm themselves and realize their own life value, and it plays an important role in shaping personality."

"It's not just earning a salary to maintain a material life, but the human spirit also needs to be perfected through it."

"People who cannot achieve independence and gain a foothold in this society will have difficulty in soundness of mind."

After Gongsun Jin finished speaking, he picked up the pen and wrote the lyrics on the paper.

Listening to his words, Zhuang Xiaomeng felt a little lost for some reason.

She felt that her personality was a little unsound. Since she was a child, she seemed to have grown up under the blessing of her family.

With her mother, godmother, Aunt Zhang, Gongsun Jin... With so many people taking care of her, she doesn't need to pay anything at all, and she can get things that the bottom people can't get even if they work hard for a lifetime.

Based on her personal ability, is she really qualified to get these?

"What? Why are you in a daze?"

"You are my agent now."

Gongsun Jin reached out and pinched her face.

"I don't think I'm useful."

"My work does not reflect the value of my existence."

Zhuang Xiaomeng shook his head.

"Who said that, I think you have value when you are here."

"Because I need you."

Gongsun Jin touched her hair.

Zhuang Xiaomeng still lowered her head and pursed her lips.

"Boom! Boom!"

Zhang Yana knocked on the door, and the two looked at the door at the same time.

"Xiao Jin, I'm going to negotiate a contract with someone, and I need your help."

After speaking, she looked at Zhuang Xiaomeng again.

"Come on, trainee agent, follow me and learn hard."

"what?"

"Oh!"

Zhuang Xiaomeng came back to her senses, suddenly became motivated, and the previous disappointment seemed to be swept away.

"Your existence value has come."

Gongsun Jin looked at her and smiled slightly.
