Perfect Superstar

PS Chapter 83 – As Long As You Signed It

“Mr. Lu Chen, do you have time at 9 o’clock tomorrow morning?” The voice from the other side of the phone is very polite and pleasant, and can even give people a trace of wonderful reverie.

Lu Chen didn’t think too much about it. The first thing he thought of was the album he was going to produce, so he immediately replied, “I’m available at that time, Miss Ni, can I ask what it is about?”

Lu Chen didn’t expect that the representative of Tianzhai Workshop would take the initiative to call him. He has also been thinking about the issue of album production over the past few days. Of course, Tianzhai was still his first choice, but it was not his only choice.

Now that the other party is calling to invite him for an appointment, should there be some good news?

Lu Chen is not sure, after all, he is still a newcomer in this circle, the more he thinks, the more disappointed he will be.

Miss Ni said with a smile, “It’s a surprise. One of the directors of our Tianzhai Workshop wants to interview you and is scheduled to meet you at 10 o’clock tomorrow morning at the coffee shop on the second floor of Delong Building. When you arrive, please tell my name, will you?”

Lu Chen: “Okay, no problem!”

Surprise? Will it be a good thing?

The director of Tianzhai Workshop, sounds like that person has some background!

Lu Chen dare not think too optimistic, he will just have to wait for tomorrow to know the answer.

No dream all night.

The next morning, as usual, he got up early to exercise, had breakfast, went home, took a bath and changed his clothes.

At 9: 05 in the morning, Lu Chen arrived at Delong Building ahead of schedule.

Delong Building is a standard commercial office building with a coffee shop and cafeteria on the second floor. When he arrived, he reported Miss Ni’s name and was taken by the waiter to a small box by the window.

Miss Ni was already there.

In addition to her, there were two other people in the box. One was a young man with a small flat head in a suit, and the other was a middle-aged man in his fifties with a Chinese face, dressed casually but full of style.

Lu Chen recognized that the latter was wearing a valuable Vacheron Constantin watch on his wrist, one of the favorite brands of business elites.

Seeing Lu Chen came in, Miss Ni and the young man stood up at the same time.

Lu Chen apologized: “I am so sorry to have kept you all waiting.”

Miss Ni smiled and said, “We came early. You’re not late. Let me introduce you.”

“This is Mr. Jin Hongwei, a director of our Tianzhai Workshop and general manager of Juxing Agency!”

Juxing Agency? Jin Hongwei?

Lu Chen was awe-inspired in his heart. He immediately reached out and said, “Hello, Mr. Jin, I’ve heard a lot about you!”

Lu Chen was not saying this out of pleasantries. He really knew Jin’s name.

Juxing Agency is a famous agency in the entertainment industry, and this Jin Hongjin is not only the founder of Juxing Agency, but also a big shot in the industry. There are many Heavenly Queens/Kings under him.

For example, Tan Hong, Lu Chen’s most favorite and love, was trained by Jin Hongwei.

For example, Chen Fei’er, the Heavenly Queen of the singing world, who was also the first to signed with Juxing Agency.

Lu Chen’s impression of Jin Hongwei came entirely from the online entertainment industry gossip. There are a lot of good and bad rumors, but in the entertainment agency industry, Jin Hongwei is recognized as the top figure.

He didn’t expect to meet Jin Hongwei today, and that he was also one of the directors of Tianzhai Workshop.

It really was a pleasant surprise!

Lu Chen felt a little flattered.

Jin Hongwei has a reputation for having a fierce-eye and good at digging up fresh talents. Being chosen by him is undoubtedly the dream of those newcomers who want to step into the entertainment industry!

It was not until Lu Chen reached out that Jin Hongwei stood up unhurriedly, shook hands with him and said, “Hmm! Lu Chen, I heard your name half a month ago, a very talented young man!”

Lu Chen smiled and said, “Thank you so much for your praise.”

“it’s not a compliment, it’s a fact!”

Jin Hongwei let go of his hand and said, “I have listened to all three songs you have written for the Wandering Band. They were written very well. With your talent, you should not be like this. You should be standing on the real stage...”

“Become a big star in the limelight, I believe you have such strength!”

His words were not so impassioned, but they were plain and firm and full of power to bewitch people.

Lu Chen can only smile.

Jin Hongwei’s evaluation of him is too high that he didn’t know how to answer.

“I am very optimistic about you...”

Jin Hongwei motioned Lu Chen to sit down. Miss Ni poured tea for him personally.

After a few casual chats, Jin Hongwei reached out to the young man next to him.

The young man, Jin Hongwei’s assistant, hurriedly took out a contract from his briefcase.

Jin Hongwei took it in his hand and said meaningfully, “Lu Chen, I know you recently wanted to release a solo album. Did you encounter any problems with the funds?”

“This is very simple. Our company to help you solve this problem. It’s customized according to the highest standards of specifications, in addition...”

After a pause, he continued, “In a few days, the second season of Xiangnan Satellite TV, “Super Singer”, will hold an audition. Our company has cooperation with that side. How about recommending you to participate in it? At least, we’ll make sure you’re in the top three!”

The industry’s tycoon put his contract in front of Lu Chen and said, “All you have to do is sign it.”

Jin Hongwei’s voice was full of confidence. He obviously didn’t think Lu Chen would refuse.

Miss Ni smiled and said, “Congratulations, Mr. Lu Chen!”

The highest standard of album customization, being in the top three of “Super Singer”, the strength that the Juxing Agency holds...

Of course, there is also the favor of this big shot in the entertainment industry!

For any newcomer, this is simple a dream come true!

Lu Chen looked at the contracts placed in front of him, and the fame and interests he longed for seemed to be within reach.

He just feels that everything is happening too fast!

He’s still not mentally prepared yet.

However, at this time, Lu Chen didn’t get overwhelmed, but calmed down.

However, the sky won’t simply drop a pie, Juxing Company and Jin Hongwei are not living Lei Feng. For all the money the put out, they must double their profit. Is this contract really what he wants to sign? (TN: Sky won’t drop the pie – all good things are not free. There will always be a corresponding exchange for it.)

Lu Chen could not help recalling the online news. Tan Hong and Chen Fei’er, whom Jin Hongwei had trained, eventually fell out with him, and the lawsuit was full of controversy. Both of them had denounced the Juxing Company for being overbearing and having a harsh contract.

Although online rumors are not necessarily true, public opinion certainly occupy the moral high ground, but there must be a reason for this, because Jin Hongwei’s image in the industry is not perfect.

The contract in front of Lu Chen reminds him of some unpleasant past events.

His determination was just slightly shaken but it became firm again!

“Mr. Jin, thank you for your kindness...”

Instead of looking over the contract, Lu Chen looked up and said to Jin Hongwei, “But I’m not going to sign a contract with any company, so please forgive me.”

Lu Chen is not confident that he is stronger than Tan Hong and Chen Fei’er. Since Jin Hongwei has given such a high treatment, this contract is bound to be very strict or even harsh. 9 out of 10, the contract is one that will put a person into servitude!

In order to avoid people mistakenly think that he is playing big cards, Lu Chen simply refused directly, clearly expressing his attitudes and ideas.

For Jin Hongwei, Lu Chen’s refusal was totally beyond his expectation.

Why would you say no? How can you refuse? How dare you refuse!

Jin Hongwei’s astonishment was directly expressed on his face, and all of his far-reaching intention was ruined.

Jin Hongwei has been in the business for 30 years. Starting as a small agent assistant to now, what he is most proud of is that basically there was no person that he was unable to sign to his agency. Nothing has ever gone wrong!

In the past, Tan Hong was also so difficult but he still managed to handled him.

In the past, Chen Fei’er was so arrogant but she still signed her name on his contract.

Lu Chen is just a young newcomer who has not yet officially made his debut. Yet, he ignored his good terms and refuses to accept the contract without even looking at it. It’s like hitting him in the face!

His assistant and Miss Ni were also dumbfounded and they looked at Lu Chen with unbelieving eyes.

A golden road of fame was paved at his feet and Lu Chen actually didn’t want to step on it. Was he crazy or stupid?

After all, Jin Hongwei was not an ordinary person. His face changed for a moment and soon calmed down.

He asked, “Lu Chen, is there something difficult for you to say? can you let me hear it?”

Lu Chen didn’t know what the other party was thinking, feeling very embarrassed, he explained, “Mr. Jin, I’m sorry. I just don’t like being bound. Originally, I intended to open a personal studio, so...”

“I see.”

Jin Hongwei nodded and said, “I can understand that. I’m really sorry. I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future.”

Lu Chen happily said, “Thank you!”

Now that he had refused, it was difficult for him to stay any longer, so he got up and said goodbye.

Jin Hongwei did not ask him to stay, but said at the end, “Lu Chen, your talent shouldn’t be buried. Go and participate in “Super Singer”, I am very optimistic about you!”

After Lu Chen left, the face of the industry tycoon suddenly sank.

Even the temperature in the box has dropped a lot!
