Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

A week later, an English song "The Final Countdown" suddenly appeared on the Internet. Its rock-flavored music style and tough singing style immediately swept the major domestic music charts. People began to remember this singer who had been drifting in Beijing for eight years. ——Tang Guang.

Yu Dongqing's life remains the same, but of course there are changes.

He re-signed the copyright ownership contract with the company. The copyright of the songs he created belongs to Yu Dongqing, and he will enjoy a certain share of copyright fees. At Luo Yun's request, all copyrights of "The Final Countdown" including those previously written for "God of Gamblers" will be transferred to Yu Dongqing. One section of it all belongs to Yu Dongqing.

It's much better than before, but not perfect yet.

However, the end of the second five-year contract signed with the company is coming soon, and it will arrive early next year.

Hold on for another half year, help Wu Lan by the way, and repay the favor of taking care of the original Yu Dongqing for so many years.

that's all.

It's early June, and today is Monday afternoon. Yu Dongqing made an exception and asked for a half-day personal leave, because the drama "Love in the 1980s" rehearsed by sister-in-law Meiliang will be performed at school.

This was the weekend when Mingliang came to visit Tongtong at his home. She repeatedly told him that this was the first time her work would be performed internally and that he must come and watch it to support her.

Yu Dongqing agreed.

After lunch, he set off directly from the company and took the subway to the Central Theater Company.

In the dormitory on the third floor of Building 11, the female dormitory building in the southern part of the Chinese Opera campus, a burst of singing with guitar accompaniment came.

What she sang was the song "Love Song 1990" written by Yu Dongqing.

Black eyes and your smiling face

It’s hard to forget the change in your appearance no matter what

The light old days just slipped away

When I turn around and look back, several years have passed by

The one singing was not Meili, but her roommate Han Qingqing.

The two "Love Songs" were brought to the Chinese Opera by Meili Meili, and coupled with the promotion on Station B, they quickly became popular on campus. Compared with the boys who like to sing "Love Song 1980", the girls prefer "Love Song" 1990》.

Han Qingqing is a fan of this song. In her words, she should be a fan of Meimei's brother-in-law Yu Dongqing, although she has never met this person.

Today, Han Qingqing, wearing glasses, was sitting at the table in front of the window, playing and singing this song. He glanced at Meili who was putting on makeup, and couldn't help but ask: "Meili, is your brother-in-law really coming today?" ?”

"Of course, he agreed personally."

"Wow, I can finally see the man in my heart." Han Qingqing looked like a nymphomaniac.

Before Meiliang could answer, she heard another girl say: "Han Qingqing, the male god? Not necessarily, right? I heard from Meimei that his brother-in-law is almost 40, right? A middle-aged uncle, maybe he is a middle-aged greasy man with a big belly." Don’t be disappointed when the time comes.”

The person who spoke was a beautiful girl sitting opposite Han Qingqing. She was also tall, with big white legs, a small V face, big eyes, and a standard celebrity look. But if you look carefully, you will find that her lips are a little thin.

Her name is Cheng Cong, and she is also a sophomore majoring in acting.

"No way? I heard from Meimei that her brother-in-law is very handsome." Han Qingqing retorted.

"How handsome can a man who is almost 40 years old be?" Cheng Cong snorted coldly.

At this time, Mingliang had just finished putting on her makeup and glanced at her before saying: "I think it is not very important whether a man is handsome or not. What is important is that he is talented. What is more terrifying than some people who are not good-looking is a belly." The idiot is much better, besides, my brother-in-law is really handsome."

After saying that, he picked up Xiaokun Baotou and walked away without looking back.

"Meiliang, wait for me." Han Qingqing put down her guitar and followed her out, leaving only Cheng Cong with a somewhat ugly expression.

She knew that Mingliang was insinuating that she had found an unlearned boyfriend.

Her boyfriend's name is Xu Xiaoqi. He has an average appearance and is indeed a playboy, because he has a powerful father, Xu Qingguo, who is one of the most famous directors in the country and has a wide network of contacts in the entertainment industry.

Others were talking behind the scenes that Cheng Cong looking for Xu Xiaoqi was just a flower stuck in cow dung. Of course, more people were attracted by Cheng Cong because he was attracted by his father, the great director, and the resources he brought.

Cheng Cong neither admitted nor denied these.

She is well aware of her strengths and weaknesses.

How can a kid from a working-class family like me, who comes from a small place without any background, stand out in the fierce competition of Chinese dramas and win the favor of the director and get the chance to star. In addition to having a certain level of performance, you must also make full use of your own advantages - that is, beauty.

Although there are many beauties in Chinese dramas, among this level of students, her figure and appearance are outstanding. Of course, she has used this advantage to gain opportunities for herself.

No, Xu Xiaoqi said that his father has agreed to let her star in the second female lead in an urban TV series that is about to start filming.

If you don’t have this relationship, no one will want you if you want to join the crew!

At the very least, we are dating openly, unlike some girls who talk about scripts with directors at night just to get roles, right?

Therefore, Cheng Cong didn't think this was a shameful thing. On the contrary, he was a little proud, but he couldn't be proud in front of the bright girl in his dormitory.

Because Meimei didn't even bother with this. Back then, Xu Xiaoqi pursued Meimei first, but the girl refused without hesitation, and finally pursued herself.

What's more, her beautiful appearance is no worse than hers, and her family background is better than hers.

Fortunately, Meimei majored in directing and aspired to be a director in the future, otherwise she would be his very important competitor.

Cheng Cong thought so.

Suddenly, she remembered something and looked at her watch.

oops.

Almost late for the date.

Xu Xiaoqi will be unhappy.

Cheng Cong hurriedly touched up her makeup in the mirror, and then walked out of the dormitory with her slim figure.

The Central Academy of Drama is located in Mianmian Hutong, east of Nanluogu Lane. In an environment surrounded by courtyards, the highest institution of Chinese drama is located here, giving it a feeling of being hidden away from the city.

Yu Dongqing took the subway and got off at Nanluoguxiang, and quickly entered the campus.

The area of ​​​​the Central Theater is not large, far less than that of a comprehensive university. Of course, there are not many students in the school, but the campus is full of beauties and handsome guys, especially in summer, who are all cool and pleasing to the eye.

Not long after Yu Dongqing entered the campus, she received a WeChat message from Meimei.

"Brother-in-law, are you here?"

"I just entered your campus."

"Come directly to the North Theater, which is in the northeast corner of the school."

Yu Dongqing quickly arrived at the North Theater according to Mingliang's guidance. There were already some people inside, but not many. This is just a small public performance.

"Brother-in-law, you're here." Meili has already put on makeup, has two braids, and is wearing a beautiful red dress. It makes people feel like they see a girl from the 1980s in the world, with a gentle yet heroic appearance. So cool.

This suddenly reminded Yu Dongqing of an old movie "The Popular Red Dress on the Street" that he had watched in that time and space.

Yu Dongqing smiled and was about to speak when he saw another pretty girl running over and looking at him: "Are you the beautiful brother-in-law, Yu Dongqing?"

"Yes you are?"

"Wow" the girl exclaimed exaggeratedly, then hurriedly whispered something into Mingliang's ear.

Although the voice was relatively low, Yu Dongqing could still hear it clearly.

"Meimei, you really didn't lie to me. Your brother-in-law is so handsome! Even more handsome than you said!"

After hearing this, Meili glared at her, but still introduced to Yu Dongqing: "Brother-in-law, this is my dormitory friend, Han Qingqing from the dance department. She likes the song "Love Song 1990" you wrote very much."

"Yes, Brother Yu, I like the songs you wrote very much. Can I add you on WeChat? I can ask you for advice about music." Han Qingqing said.

Regarding the girl's request, Yu Dongqing hesitated slightly, but still agreed. After all, he was Meimei's roommate. It seemed that the relationship between the two was not bad. It would not be good if he refused directly.

That's when the two became friends with each other. Someone not far away called out: "Mingmei, the performance is about to begin. Why don't you come over quickly?"

"Come here." Meili hurriedly replied, and then said to Yu Dongqing: "Brother-in-law, you can sit wherever you like. I'll go over and take a look."

Then she held Han Qingqing's hand and ran toward the stage, suddenly asking in a complaining tone.

"Qingqing, why did you add my brother-in-law on WeChat?"

"Why not? Hehe, your brother-in-law didn't refuse."
