Chapter 39 Men Become Bad When They Become Famous

"Hate."

Hearing Cao Jian say that he wanted to earn money for milk powder for his future child, Yang Yuying burst into laughter and said, "Who would have a child with you?"

"Really not giving birth?"

Cao Jianjian made the girl laugh and let his girlfriend lean on his arms before he began to comfort her: "Baby, I can't bear to leave you either. When I go to Hong Kong, I will be alone in the empty room. I am really worried that I will suffer from insomnia if I don't hold you in my arms every night.

But they gave me so much, for our future, I have to endure it. When I settle down there, you can actually come to find me. It’s not far anyway, closer than going back to Nanchang.”

After hearing these words, Yang Yuying's tears finally stopped.

After a while, she asked, "What do you mean they give too much?"

"I'm going to ask them for a letter of intent in a couple of days. You come with me."

For Cao Jian, no one can stop his life plan.

Fortunately, Yang Yuying has been calmed down.

He let go of the girl and started the car: "At noon, I wanted to discuss something with you. I went to look for you, but I didn't see you. Where did you go?"

Yang Yuying said: "I'm going to promote the album on TV. After the New Year, I'm going to sing the theme song for a TV series."

"The company values ​​you very much."

Cao Jian knew that the TV series Yang Yuying was talking about was "The Outsider", and the theme song was one of her representative works, "I Don't Want to Say".

When thinking of this song, Cao Jian thought of a song adapted from it, "I Don't Want to Say I'm a Chicken".

“Same chicken, same eggs”

This song was very funny back then and was quite popular on the Internet.

But the TV series is still quite good, and it is a microcosm of the workers who went south in that era.

To put it bluntly, he and Yang Yuying were also outsiders in the eyes of the locals.

If you don’t want to be looked down upon, you have to keep working hard.

"Same sky, same face, same me, I want to take my destiny into my own hands."

Cao Jian hummed the little tune he had changed in his heart and drove back to where he lived.

That night, she seemed to know that her boyfriend was going to Hong Kong, so she changed from being passive to being very proactive.

Although she was deeply in love, subconsciously, she still hoped that Cao Jian would stay by her side.

……

A month has passed since New Year's Day. In the north, it is the coldest time of the year, with ice and snow everywhere.

Due to the strict management of the military camp, Yan rarely had access to pop music.

That day, she suddenly received a letter from her best friend Chen Qian.

"Why did she write to me all of a sudden?"

Although they are best friends, they have had less contact since Yan Nei entered the military camp. It is really strange that she wrote a letter to him for the first time.

After opening the letter and looking at it for a while, her already big eyes opened even wider.

"Cao Jian? He became a singer? No way?"

Yan couldn't quite believe what her best friend said.

It’s only been a few months since I met Cao Jian, and he’s already become a singer?

This speed is hard to believe no matter who you are.

But when I continued reading, I saw my best friend say that the song "String Your Heart and My Heart Together" sung by Cao Jian last time is now very popular on campus.

This line of lyrics instantly brought Yan back to that afternoon half a year ago.

Cao Jian sang very well at that time, but unfortunately I only listened to half of it and felt embarrassed to listen further.

Is it really popular?

"Is this person really that amazing? The last time he wrote to me, he said he was singing in a dance hall. How could he suddenly become famous?"

Yan's curiosity was aroused. In two days, he could leave the barracks and go out for a walk. Or he could go to the tape store to see if this was true.

"Do I have a celebrity friend?"

"He said he wanted to be a star. Did he really become one? What did he say?"

Yan Ni's mind flashed with Cao Jian's bad look, and she also remembered Cao Jian's fortune-telling, saying that she could become a star, but her relationship would be a bit bumpy.
She couldn't help but look towards Yangcheng.

Two days later, Yan Ni was on vacation, so he left the base with several of his fellow art soldiers and went shopping.

She didn't go to a snack bar or clothing store like other girls, but went straight to the audio store.

Before she reached the door, she heard a familiar song.

"Has his tape been sold to Lanzhou?"

Yan couldn't help but quicken his pace and rushed straight into the music store. As soon as he entered, he saw a poster. The poster was Cao Jian, the man who had treated him to dumplings and a movie and had teased him before.

Looking at that picture, there seems to be a familiar, yet also a strange young man.
It's really him.

After staring at the poster for a long while, she asked the salesperson, "How are this person's tapes selling?"

"The hottest seller lately is this Cao Jian tape."

The salesperson said happily, "Sometimes when business is good, we can sell more than a dozen discs. How about one? The songs are very nice."

"Rich?"

"Nine dollars a plate."

"Give me a plate."

Yan didn't bargain, but bought a tape and put it quietly in his arms.

You can enjoy it at night.

But, if he becomes a singer, will he still remember me?

Just as she was about to leave, the salesperson stopped her and said, "Girl, we just got a new album today, and it includes a song by Cao Jian. Would you like to buy one? This tape is very popular in the south, and we only got 50 today. If you don't sell it, it might be gone."

After saying that, he took out a tape and placed it on the counter.

"Is there a song by Cao Jian as well?"

Yan Ni turned around curiously and found that the cover of the tape was a picture of a beautiful woman with long flowing hair.

The beauty was wearing a floral dress that had never been seen before. She was not only sweet-looking, but also had a very beautiful smile.

"Is there a song here that he sang with this girl?"

Looking at the beautiful girl on the tape, Yan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

However, he still spent another nine dollars to buy a new album by Yang Yuying.

She wanted to hear what kind of song Cao Jian and the other girls sang.
After returning to the dormitory, she hesitated for a moment and then put Yang Yuying's tape into the player.

"This girl has such a sweet voice."

This was Yan Ni’s first impression of Yang Yuying’s songs.

After listening for a while, she fast-forwarded the tape to the duet love song.

"I still remember yesterday, that summer, the moment when the breeze blew by"

Hearing the familiar voice, Yan seemed to be back to the summer when she met Cao Jian.

But the duet that followed made her feel a pang of sadness.

They sang so sweetly, didn’t they also meet in the summer?
Could this girl with a sweet voice and beautiful looks be his girlfriend?

Otherwise, how could they sing so well together?

You used to say that even though we were far apart, we could still look at the moon together, but now...
Men become bad when they become famous!
Yan Ni took out the tape uncomfortably and really wanted to throw it into the Yellow River.
Yangcheng.

"Xiao Yang, congratulations! Your new album has sold 500,000 copies. We've increased our sales by 500,000!"

Li Qiang, the boss of New Era, has been in a very good mood these days.

Cao Jian's first album sold a total of 2.8 million copies. Judging from the sales of the first batch, Yang Yuying's album will definitely not be too bad.

It turns out that signing a singer yourself can make more money than helping others release albums.

The song written by Cao Jian is indeed quite interesting.

Although Yang Yuying had agreed to let Cao Jian go to Hong Kong, she was still a little depressed.

Facing the smiling boss, she said listlessly, "Cao Jiange wrote it well."

"The song is good, but the main thing is the singing is also good. This song 'Tell You Gently' can be sung with this feeling by no one else except you."

Li Qiang was glad that he had signed Yang Yuying. He smiled and asked, "Has Xiao Cao not agreed to sign a contract with our company yet?"

It would be fine if this matter was not mentioned, but Yang Yuying felt uncomfortable when it was mentioned.

Cao Jian is about to go to Hong Kong. Do you still want to sign a contract here?

But her boyfriend reminded her not to tell anyone about the trip to Hong Kong for the time being, so she said, "Not yet. He said he'll talk to you after the Chinese New Year."

"Ok."

Li Qiang had no way to deal with Cao Jian.

Although he doesn't like Cao Jian's disobedient character, he can't resist the fact that he can write and sing, and is definitely a cash cow.

No matter what happens now, as long as we sign him, it will be fine, even if it means giving the singer more share at that time.

We must not let him be poached by other record companies!
In addition, young people like the song "Summer Blown by the Wind" in Yang Yuying's album very much.

The company is preparing to create a "golden boy and jade girl", and it seems that only Cao Jian and Yang Yuying are the most suitable.
