Chapter 206 Yehua Entertainment Headquarters
Seeing that Bai Xingjian on the other end of the phone hadn't spoken yet, Ding Xin no longer held out any hope and said:

"Xiaobai, if this is difficult for you, there is no need to force it."

The voice coming from the phone brought Bai Xingjian, Feng Shiqi and Mei Jie back to their senses.

Bai Xingjian didn't continue to be surprised. "Don't be embarrassed, Sister Xin. I just thought about it and I think I have a song that is suitable for you to sing. How about I send the song to you later?"

After these words were spoken, it was Ding Xin's turn to be surprised and delighted.

She was so happy that her tone could not hide her excitement: "Of course, Xiaobai! You are so kind!!!"

Ding Xin's condition made her assistant Zhang Kui beside her stunned.

No, how long has it been since Sister Xin was this excited?
Could it be that Bai Xingjian has a song suitable for Sister Xin to sing?
But it shouldn’t be like this, right?
After the call ends.

Feng Shiqi asked Bai Xingjian curiously, "Which song are you going to give to Ding Xin to sing?"

"It's the song 'Silence' that you recorded a few days ago." Bai Xingjian responded.

Didn't they have some free time some time ago, so they recorded some new songs together, and "Mo" is one of them.

“This one, that’s fine.”

Feng Shiqi raised her eyebrows. Although she was the one who recorded this song, she was not very fond of it, so there was no problem in singing it to Ding Xin.

"Then I'll go post the song first."

"Go ahead, I should go and continue practicing."

Then, Mei Jie was the only one left on the sofa.

However, she did not continue watching TV. Instead, she took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Zheng Wei. The content was naturally related to the song "Silence" that Bai Xingjian gave to Ding Xin.

Everyone is busy with various things.

Time just passed by.

Sunday, May 9.

Bai Xingjian and his group came to the capital again after many days.

I was not participating in the recording of "Song Gu", but in the recording of CCTV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala.

The Mid-Autumn Festival Gala was not broadcast live, and the recording process was relatively easy, because they only had to sing one song, "As Wish", and Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi finished it in one take.

Some singers who were waiting for rehearsal couldn't help but sigh when they saw their performance:
"As expected of the strongest rookie group everyone is talking about, their singing skills are indeed quite impressive."

"Of course not. They can compete with those foreign singers in the show "The Voice of China 2024". How can they not be amazing?"

"Speaking of 'The Voice of China 2024', I don't know what Li Xiao is up to lately. The trending searches on Weibo are one after another every day without stopping. How big a fuss is he trying to make?"

“It’s hard to say, but it can be seen that Li Xiao is probably trying to stir up patriotism again. The recent trending searches have almost turned the Chinese singers and foreign singers on “The Voice of China 2024” into opposites.”

"He likes to use patriotism to do marketing. I hope he won't be hurt."

"Stop talking, stop talking. It's our turn to perform."

After the performance, Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi did not stay at the scene for long. After talking with some seniors for a while, they left the broadcasting building and drove towards the headquarters of Yehua Entertainment.

I came to Beijing to record "Song Gu" before, but because of the tight schedule, I always "passed by my home three times without entering".

Now she was not in a hurry at all, and Zheng Wei had some things to deal with, so she took Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi to the headquarters to take a look.

In the nanny's car.

Mei Jie answered Feng Shiqi's question with great interest: "I have never been to the headquarters of Yehua Entertainment before, but I have visited the branch in Shanghai.

The branch in Shanghai only has one floor of office building, but the decoration is very high-end, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as grand. The headquarters is a whole building owned by the company, so it should be even more grand, right? "

Mei Jie looked at the tall buildings outside the car window and felt that she was extremely small.

She came from a coastal city and went to college in Shanghai. After graduation, her family used some connections to get her into Yehua Entertainment to work as a personal assistant for Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi.

So she still had great expectations for this sacred place in the capital.

"You'll know when you go see it." Zheng Wei said with a smile, "It's a good opportunity for me to take you to meet some new friends."

The headquarters building of Yehua Entertainment is nearly 40 kilometers away from the CCTV headquarters broadcasting building. In addition, today is the weekend, and the ring road in the city center is jammed with traffic.

Therefore, it took about an hour to drive the 40-kilometer distance.

"Is that the headquarters of Yehua Entertainment? It looks special to have its own building!"

Mei Jie leaned against the car window, her eyes shining brightly.

Not far away, a 35-story building stands alone. Since there are no tall buildings like it around, it gives people a striking and majestic feeling.

On one side of the top of the high-rise building, there is an independent sign with four large characters "Yehua Entertainment".

It is these four words that attract the curiosity of many people.

“Are we finally here?”

Looking at the building outside the window, Bai Xingjian narrowed his eyes.

It was around four o'clock in the afternoon and the sun had not yet set, so the sunlight reflecting off the tempered glass was still somewhat dazzling.

After the nanny car stopped in the parking lot, the group took the elevator upstairs.

Zheng Wei pressed the button for the 21st floor and introduced it to the three of them with a smile: "Yehua Entertainment has divided its main business departments into three major sections: film and television, music, and variety shows. The music section occupies the usable space from the 8th to the 22nd floor. It can be said to be the largest section of Yehua Entertainment."

"Huh? Is the music section so important?"

Hearing this, Mei Jie looked surprised.

Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi also looked at Zheng Wei with curiosity in their eyes.

Zheng Wei patiently explained: "The main thing is that the music section includes many newcomers, such as trainees, who are also included.

After their debut, these new artists may not just follow the idol music path, but may also branch out into the film and television industry. So it is like there is an incubation center in the music sector, which leads to the largest scale of music.”

As for why Zheng Wei did not say "there was a diversion in variety shows", the reason is very simple.

The threshold for variety shows is much higher than that for film and television. After all, newcomers in the film and television industry can start as extras, but what about in the variety show industry?
Are you the atmosphere group?
"I see."

Mei Jie nodded, and then said, "To put it nicely, it's called an incubation center, but to be more realistic, it should be a Gu breeding center, right?"

Zheng Wei was stunned when he heard this, then smiled and said, "Indeed, it might be more appropriate to describe it as raising a Gu. After all, which newcomer who makes his debut in the end is not a talent picked from thousands of people?"

At this point, Zheng Wei raised his eyebrows: "Of course, there are still some fish that slip through the net with money."

"I can see that, I can see that." Mei Jie nodded in agreement.

Before the elevator reached the 21st floor, Zheng Wei continued, "Although the music section is the largest, the most important section in Yehua Entertainment is the film and television section. The 23rd to 33rd floors are all film and television areas, and the higher the floor, the more valuable the film and television crews are."

"Like this?"

Mei Jie seemed to have discovered an interesting point. She looked at Zheng Wei and asked, "Does this rule apply to the music section?"

"Of course!" Zheng Wei's eyes showed some excitement. She looked at Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi and said with a smile:

"This time, thanks to both of you, I was able to move directly from the 18th floor to the 21st floor during the department transfer, which can be considered a big promotion!"

"Is there still such a saying?"

Bai Xingjian raised his eyebrows and suddenly found it interesting.

The internal system of Yehua Entertainment doesn't seem as boring as imagined.

Zheng Wei smiled helplessly again, "There are so many twists and turns here."

The elevator of Yehua Entertainment was slow but very stable. After a while, we finally arrived at the 21st floor of the music section.

"Let's go, I'll show you my new workstation~"

Zheng Wei was in a very good mood, and some people passing by on the road greeted her politely or familiarly.

"Hello, Sister Wei!"

"Sister Wei is beautiful again today!"

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Of course, some eyes would also sweep over Bai Xingjian, Feng Shiqi and Mei Jie who were beside Zheng Wei.

However, Zheng Wei brought more people than just Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi, so no one paid much attention to them. After a quick glance and feeling that they looked unfamiliar, no one took them too seriously.

Even though some people recognized them, they were not too surprised.

After all, who among those who can work on the 21st floor doesn’t have a few high-class artists on his staff?

In their eyes, Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi were actually still a little lacking in strength.

So on the way to Zheng Wei's workstation, Bai Xingjian, Feng Shiqi and Mei Jie also noticed some people who ignored, disdained or teased Zheng Wei.

"Hey, isn't this Zheng Wei? Looking at the situation, did he bring back a few more good seedlings to let Ji Qiu take a look? And then he used the words 'unlimited potential' to attack the 22nd floor?"

A woman with short brown hair holding a document to her chest stopped and looked at Mei Jie with a teasing look.

Behind the woman was a group of young boys with immature looks. Seeing the woman like this, they had no choice but to stop and began to turn their attention to Zheng Wei and her group.

However, facing the woman's teasing, Zheng Wei walked straight past without even raising his eyes, leaving a light sentence:
"Li Li, you should worry about your KPI this month first. I heard that you seem to have reached the critical period of impacting the 22nd floor. If you fail at this time, you might fall directly to the same starting line as me."

Hearing this, the short brown-haired woman, Li Li, turned pale and blue: "Don't worry, Zheng Wei. If I really fall, maybe your trick can save me. After all, who doesn't have a few artists with great potential?"

Because they were walking a bit far away, Bai Xingjian, Feng Shiqi and Mei Jie didn’t hear clearly some of the words that were said later.

On the other side, the boys following behind Li Li couldn't help but start a discussion after Li Li finished speaking.

"Did you notice just now? The people behind Zheng Wei seemed to be Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi!"

"I saw it! It was definitely them!"

"So that beauty is Feng Shiqi? As expected, she looks even prettier than in the video!"

"Hey! If she hadn't already been dating Bai Xingjian, I would definitely chase her and make her my girlfriend."

"What a stupid idea! If I like Feng Shiqi, I will wait until she gets married before pursuing her!"

"So who are you talking about? Am I crazy?"

"It's about the Phoenix in flight! Now you should know, right?"

"Oh, Phoenix Flying? My grandparents really like the songs they sing."

The boys' topic was not about Li Li, and it was obvious that she had not yet been beaten by society.

Listening to their conversation, Li Li was also quite annoyed. She turned around and said coldly:
"Everyone, be quiet. Isn't today's extra training enough? How about a few more sets tonight?"

After hearing this, all the young men fell silent.

the other side.

Zheng Wei was also explaining to Bai Fengmei and the others some of the reasons why she and Li Li had a bad relationship.

In fact, it is very simple. In this job transfer, Zheng Wei was directly promoted from the 18th floor to the 21st floor, which caused Li Li's dissatisfaction.

Of course, Li Li was not the only one who was dissatisfied. There were also many "natives" on the 21st floor or "new residents" who had just arrived.

At present, only Li Li expressed this dissatisfaction most obviously.

The reason for everyone's dissatisfaction was that Zheng Wei was promoted too quickly.

Originally, according to her current performance (training artists, bringing out a certain number of third-tier, second-tier, and first-tier talents, and creating a certain amount of revenue), it would be more than enough for her to be promoted to the 20th level.

Who made her sign such a hit movie "Phoenix Flying" in the first half of this year?
However, this performance is still a little short of reaching the 21st level. Maybe it will be enough by this time next year.

After all, everyone can see the business capabilities of Fenghuang Yufei.

Zheng Wei thought so too.

But what she never expected was that when the job transfer notice board was published some time ago.

Zheng Wei suddenly saw his own name among the new employees on the 21st floor.

Later she found out that it was Ji Qiu, the artist director of the music department, who was very optimistic about Fenghuang Yufei's potential and made an exception to promote Zheng Wei to a higher level.

It was Ji Qiu's "exception" that caused Zheng Wei quite distress recently.

However, she did not put the blame on Ji Qiu, but announced to the public that she believed Fenghuang Yufei had unlimited potential, which led to the current situation.

"But it's true. If I had risen steadily from the bottom level by level, and suddenly someone came up next to me who jumped up from the bottom, and this person was a little bit shady.

I would definitely be very angry too, and maybe even more serious than Li Li."

Zheng Wei said self-deprecatingly.

How does this sound like a fantasy novel?
Bai Xingjian raised his eyebrows and grinned, "What's wrong with this? Don't Sister Qi and I have unlimited potential?

It’s only the 21st floor at the moment, but we’d go even if it was the 22nd floor.”

"That's right!" Feng Shiqi echoed.

"I've been to the 22nd floor and even the 33rd floor!" Mei Jie was even more proud.

Zheng Wei was a little amused by what the three of them said, and now she came to the door of her independent office.

"Ding!"

There is a device on the door for swiping a card or fingerprint. After a mechanical sound, the heavy door opened.

Then a male voice came from the room:
"You guys are finally here!"
