Regarding the appointment of Xu Fengnian, no one voiced any opinions of it. After all, Zhang Xiaohua was the boss, he had the right to make decisions in this respect. Moreover, Xu Fengnian had been involved in the entertainment industry for many years. He was well-informed, experienced and personally connected, therefore, they couldn"t object to him being appointed as a business manager.After the departure of Zhou Yi and Xu Fengnian, Yuan Datong asked with curiosity: "Xiao-Hua, you said that you wanted to give a concert to w.a.n.g Jingwen. What about the selection of the venue? How many people can it hold?"
"Tianhe Stadium."
Zhang Xiaohua spat out the words casually. However, these words shocked everyone in the venue. All their mouths became "O" shapes, they remained like this for a long time, they couldn"t even answer. This kid really was amazing!
It was no wonder... Tianhe Stadium was the third largest stadium in Tianjing City. It was large enough to accommodate 30,000 spectators. It was generally used for sports compet.i.tions, such as large-scale games like The Asian Games and football, and so on. No star would dare to hold a concert at Tianhe Stadium.
Even more puzzling is that even if w.a.n.g Jingwen had the strength to perform concerts in the Tianhe Stadium, how could the stage be set up? In the middle of the stadium was a football field and a four-kilometre running track. Even if the football pitch could be modified into an auditorium, where would w.a.n.g Jingwen sing? Would they make her sing on the stands?
This world had no concept of central staging, only one-way ground stages.
However, if it was changed into a large auditorium, then it would be easier, there were ready-made stages and equipment, such as lights and LED displays. "The audience was able to sit comfortably on sofa chairs and enjoy the concert. It was a grand occasion.
"Xiao Hua, are you crazy? That"s a stadium, not an auditorium." Yuan Datong was full of grievance.
"Yeah, boss, singers go to auditoriums to open concerts, not stadiums. The stadiums are meant for sport compet.i.tions." Emma spoke up, trying to advise Zhang Xiaohua.
Xiaohai also nodded and agreed.
Zhang Xiaohua was too lazy to explain his reasoning and just reminded everyone: "Just remember not to tell w.a.n.g Jingwen, she needs to focus on the songs. At present, the most important thing is to record the thirteen songs as soon as possible and earn from them first."
After Zhang Xiaohua looked at the time and found that it was almost ten o"clock, w.a.n.g Jingwen hadn"t actually arrived yet, he asked Emma: "What about w.a.n.g Jingwen?"
"Oh, I called her in the morning, but her cell phone has been turned off and n.o.body answered the phone at home. I don"t know what she is doing." Emma answered.
Zhang Xiaohua had a wry smile, it seemed that this girl was getting more and more disrespectful, but it was understandable, after all, she was now a national star. She had grown her wings and she showed no care for the company. It was human nature.
It seemed it was time to replace this girl. Before that, he must find a singer.
Just as Zhang Xiaohua thought of this, suddenly, a young girl entered from the outside.
When he saw the girl"s appearance. Zhang Xiaohua couldn"t help but exclaim.
"You… you actually came, welcome!" Zhang Xiaohua ran up and greeted the girl.
It was the girl he met at the front door of the department store yesterday performing on stage.
"So you... own the entertainment company?" The girl kept her eyes wide open and her face was full of apologies. It seemed like she had discovered more information about HuaXiang and regretted yesterday"s disrespect towards Zhang Xiaohua.
Yuan Datong and co were so confused, they kept peeping and whispering between themselves, while looking at the girl.
"Boss, who is this? Care to introduce us?" Emma"s curiosity began to grow. In her view, people who could be picked out by Zhang Xiaohua were certainly not ordinary, maybe this girl was the next w.a.n.g Jingwen!
"Oh, she is..." Zhang Xiaohua started speaking, then frowned while turning to the girl and asked: "Yes, what is your name?"
"h.e.l.lo, everyone, my name is Ling Ming." The girl introduced herself and waved her hand greeting everyone.
After hearing the girl"s name, Zhang Xiaohua couldn"t help but s.h.i.+ver, suddenly, a layer of stormy waves appeared in his mind!
It was fate!
What was happening? How could he be so G.o.dd.a.m.n lucky, two artists in a row.
He was beginning to believe G.o.d was blessing him for saving that child from his past life. Though, still sceptical about the existence of an Almighty being, he couldn"t deny the situation he was in. After all, he was transmigrated to a parallel world and reborn. That was pretty strong evidence, his atheism was shaken, plus his luck was too outrageous. Anyway, these religious ideologies could be dealt with later, let"s get back to the situation at hand....
Looking at the girl in front of him, Zhang Xiaohua looked like he had just discovered gold. There was no way to express his emotions. At the same time, many cla.s.sic songs began to flash across his mind. Among them, the most influential ones were:
"Sister"
"Stand By Me"
the sensational "Can I Hold You"
and the immortal cla.s.sic "Listening to the Sea"
In Zhang Xiaohua"s world, these cla.s.sic songs already had a master, that was the girl in front of him - Ling Ming!
Under such intense pressure of meeting an idol, Zhang Xiaohua involuntarily took a small step back.
It seemed that the girl"s character was one of shyness, so Zhang Xiaohua always maintained a friendly smile on his face, for fear of accidentally scaring the girl off, he didn"t dare get too close to the girl, and said, "Yesterday I heard you singing and you really do have amazing vocals. But I thought you weren"t interested in joining us?"
Ling Ming smiled and said sincerely: "To be truthful, I didn"t believe you when you said you could introduce me to w.a.n.g Jingwen. When I told my friends what happened and showed them the card, they explained to me who you were and forced me here after all, haha..."
Ling Ming asked weakly: "Is, w.a.n.g Jingwen really your company"s singer? And those songs she sings, were they really written by you!"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled slightly, he silently and readily picked up an acoustic guitar from the side.
Gently stroking the strings, a delicate, fluid melody lingered slowly went around the room, Zhang Xiaohua began to sing...
"It"s raining outside
It"s been hard to
Love you so long
In fact, it is not easy
We split paths, heading separate ways
There will no longer be a relations.h.i.+p tomorrow
My stay at home clothes in your closet
I"ll have to make time to get them back
Do not think that this love will bear fruit
Can"t bear to find an excuse
Do not force yourself for me again
Heart is not enough to leave you pained
Can I hold you?
Let me cry on your shoulders
If we are going to separate today
Let me burst into tears
Can I hold you baby?
Let me love you one last time
You must also dream of our love
I will leave with a smile
And walk it off....
At the end of the song, there was silence.
Zhang Xiaohua also proved everything with this song. "Can I Hold You?" was completely different from the usual, a whole new style and sound.
