Rock and Roll: Glorious Years
39 Chen Shuting
After fulfilling all the fans' requests for autographs and photos, Bian Lang had several lip prints on his face. There's no doubt that none of them were left by Chinese girls!
On the way back to the hotel, the production crew conducted some random interviews before starting to arrange the return trip for the group. Each person went home separately. Mu Mian and Bian Lang agreed that after she returned to Qingdao to settle her personal affairs, she would go to Yunnan Province to join the organization.
Su Kan was also tempted, but she was afraid that Bian Lang would reject her if she asked, and she was also afraid that her family would find out about her leaving the band because of the show, which would inevitably lead to a big fight. If she went to Yunnan Province, things would be even more unpredictable. So in the end, she held back.
All of them had flights the next day, and they agreed to have a farewell dinner at the night market that night. After arriving at the hotel, they all went back to their rooms to unpack.
Before Bian Lang even reached his room, he was blocked by two women on the way, one of whom looked very familiar!
Bian Lang took off his sunglasses and looked her over carefully: "Little witch?"
"Hello, Master Bian! I've finally met you alive again!" These words were spoken without thinking, but Bian Lang didn't care.
"And who is this?"
Chen Shuting extended her hand and introduced herself to Bian Lang, "Hello, Mr. Bian. Let me introduce myself. My name is Chen Shuting, and I'm an independent agent..." As she spoke, Chen Shuting thought to herself, "With this face, playing rock music is practically giving those pretty-boy idols a chance to survive!"
Upon hearing the name and seeing the woman's striking red lips and short, curly hair, the aura and charm emanating from this 30-something career woman filled Bian Lang with awe. He blurted out, "Hello, Sister-in-law!" without thinking.
Both women were startled upon hearing this. The little witch excitedly asked, "Wow, Bian the Great God, you follow my livestream too?"
He'd definitely watched Bianlang, but not much. A few days ago, after the incident at the Dadonghai Night Market, Qiu Luo called to thank him and invite him to dinner, mentioning Xiao Mo Nu's number, so he clicked on it and took a look.
"Yes, I've seen it!"
Hearing this, Chen Shuting said somewhat embarrassedly, "Those were just jokes from netizens. If Teacher Bian doesn't mind, you can just call me Sister Chen."
Bian Lang didn't understand, but he didn't delve into it. After learning the purpose of their visit, he arranged to have afternoon tea at the hotel in half an hour, and then went back to his room to shower and change. In Lucheng's temperature, wearing that outfit for the performance for even a minute longer was torture.
When Bianlang reappeared, he had changed into a floral shirt and beach shorts that Mumian had bought for all the band members at the night market.
After Bian Lang sat down, Chen Shuting got straight to the point: "Teacher Bian isn't a complete newcomer, so I won't beat around the bush. I'm an independent agent, and I'm here to sign you. After your performance in Yunnan Province, I flew to Kunming to look for you, but maybe I didn't do it the right way, and I didn't get to meet you in person."
Now that you mention it, Bian Lang remembered that Lao Tan had mentioned that a female agent had directly approached Banshan.
"I'm so sorry, Sister Chen, things were a bit hectic those few days."
Chen Shuting nodded and said, "I understand. I also looked into that matter behind the scenes, and Li Yiliang's actions were indeed dishonest. So I'll continue. After signing you, I will do everything in my power within a year to increase your personal and work visibility, so that you can ask for a much higher price when signing with a major company."
Upon hearing this, Bian Lang formed a basic judgment about Chen Shuting.
First of all, the fact that they personally came to find me twice shows that their vision and execution are among the best in the industry.
Secondly, if someone can be straightforward and say that they are just a middleman, using honesty to gain trust, their character is generally not bad.
Furthermore, the confident tone in her voice proves that she must have considerable resources within the industry.
However, these are all Bian Lang's subjective judgments, and he still needs to probe further to find out the truth. Although he has already decided to join Nanyin, the information he got from Lao Tan is that Nanyin's agents are all greenhorns, and their business is basically based on Pan Jianhu's connections.
But Pan Jianhu's greatest strength is in music production, and most of his connections are in the rock music scene. Besides, it's impossible for him to have Bian Lang as his manager.
Bian Lang's plans won't stay confined to the rock scene forever. There are so many different styles of hit songs on Earth that he can't sing them all by himself. Therefore, he needs a capable manager to handle these matters for him.
So now that one has been delivered to him, he's going to examine it carefully.
"Sister Chen, I'd like to ask what you think of Nanyin Records?" Asking about his own affairs wouldn't be of much value, so Bian Lang decided to test the waters with Nanyin Records first.
Upon hearing the name and considering Pan Jianhu's identity, Chen Shuting basically guessed what was going on.
After thinking for a while, she finally spoke: "Given Teacher Bian's current situation, signing with Nanyin is indeed the best option at present, but it may not be the case in the long run."
Bian Lang took out his cigarette case, consulted the two ladies for their opinions, and then lit one for himself, asking, "What do you mean?"
"The competitive relationship between Nanyin and Modie is there, so no matter who will be the leader of the Chinese independent music market in the future, Nanyin cannot put its resources and energy into areas other than independent music right now. To put it bluntly, Tiger's ideas are not recognized by capital, and Modie is much more realistic than them in this respect. Capital now focuses on traffic, and if Teacher Bian's future plans are to use Teacher Liu Yao as a stepping stone, then Nanyin is really not a suitable option."
"However, if Mr. Bian intends to continue developing in the rock scene, there's no company more suitable for you than Nanyin. After all, Magic Disc is too deeply entangled with capital, and it's uncertain whether they can maintain their core position in rock and independent music in the future!"
After hearing this, Bian Lang's recognition of Chen Shuting reached a new level. She clearly explained the advantages and disadvantages in both the short and long term from Bian Lang's perspective, which made her values more aligned with those of agents who only cared about money.
Just as Bian Lang was about to ask more questions, his phone rang. He saw it was Zhou Mo calling, apologized to Chen Shuting, and then answered the call.
Less than a minute later, Bian Lang gave his location and hung up the phone.
"Sister Chen, I'm sorry, but a director friend of mine introduced someone from the DULUDULU platform to me to discuss a collaboration. If you don't mind, would you like to join us?"
Chen Shuting understood the implication in Bian Lang's words and smiled as she replied, "Will Teacher Bian consider my opinion then?"
"I am extremely grateful!" Bian Lang clasped his hands together in thanks.
The original owner had virtually no business acumen. In his previous life, Bian Lang's band's business dealings were all handled by their manager, especially collaborations with websites, which he had never paid any attention to. So...
When Little Witch heard that it was the platform where she posted her works that was sending people, she immediately became nervous. For a content creator of her caliber, she was usually contacted by customer service representatives when there was a problem. This was only after she benefited greatly from Bianlang's success. Before that, she was treated like a robot customer service representative.
She felt that anyone who could be introduced by the director must at least be at the level of an assistant director. If she had the chance later... Thinking of this, she felt that becoming a fan of Bianlang was the best decision she had ever made in her life so far.
