Volume 1 Chapter 89 Recruitment Ends

  "Professor Shen, long time no see." In the office of Professor Shen Pengjun at Hua Xia Music Academy, Lu Li warmly greeted Professor Shen Pengjun, who had taken good care of him.

  "Ah, it's been a long time. I remember when we first met, you were studying music and writing at the same time. I was worried that you would be distracted, but now you're not only thriving in the online literature world, but also making waves in the music industry." Shen Pengjun looked older than he did four years ago, gazing at Lu Li with a benevolent expression: "You've matured, and your body has become much stronger. However, your temperament is still not very stable, you need to temper yourself more."

  Lu Li looked at Shen Pengjun's face, which had aged a lot, and suddenly felt a pang of sadness. It had only been a year since graduation, and he hadn't expected such a big change. At the same time, he couldn't help but think that it had already been five years since he unknowingly came to this world, and indeed, time was unforgiving.

  Lu Li suddenly felt a pang in his heart and turned around to look at Meng Qi, only to find that Meng Qi, who had already lost her childishness and matured a lot, was also looking at him. As soon as their eyes met, Meng Qi quickly lowered her head, and even though she had long since confessed her feelings to Lu Li, her face still flushed with two red clouds, extremely captivating.

  Lu Li turned around and looked at Professor Shen Pengjun with a kind expression, saying: "Lu Li's achievements are all thanks to the efforts of predecessors like Teacher. I'm ashamed of Teacher's praise. Unfortunately, time is not forgiving, and Teacher looks much older now. Please take care of your health."

  Shen Pengjun nodded in comfort, also seeing the fleeting sadness on Lu Li's face, knowing that Lu Li was genuinely emotional. He said: "The teacher's body knows itself, although it's not young anymore, but it can still see you moving forward. You've done a good job of being humble and cautious, as long as you're more stable, there won't be much problem."

  He glanced at Meng Qi, who was still lowering his head behind Lu Li, and continued: "As you said, time waits for no man. Let me recite a poem by Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu, 'Jin Lv Yi' (Brocade Robe): 'Don't be stingy with your brocade robe, but be frugal with your youth. When flowers bloom, they should be picked at the right moment, don't wait until there are no more flowers to pick.' Take good care of yourself."

  Lu Li was shocked by his words and after a long while said: "The student has learned."

  "Alright, let's not make the atmosphere so serious. This year's students are generally not bad, and there are many good seeds. The school has already passed my inspection, and I can let you hold a recruitment at the school. How many people you can recruit depends on your own ability." Shen Pengjun said with a smile, seeing Lu Li's solemn expression.

  "En, then I'll go prepare for the recruitment." Lu Li said.

  "If there's anything you need help with, feel free to ask me." Shen Pengjun said this and let Lu Li leave, going to recruit people himself.

  Ludi and Mengqi contacted the Student Union of Huaxia Music Academy, and with their help, they organized a relatively formal recruitment, which attracted many people to come.

  "What's this company, 'Bie Li Entertainment'? Have you heard of it?" a young man asked the person next to him in front of the recruitment desk.

  "I've never heard of it either, probably some small company. If it were a well-known entertainment company, there's no reason we wouldn't know about it." The boy standing next to him, who appeared to be from a relatively wealthy family based on his clothes, replied disdainfully.

  "This separation is entertaining, I do know a thing or two about it. Don't you guys know about the copyright dispute of Liu Xuelin's song 'Gong Xi Fa Cai' from Shanghai a few months ago?" Another boy who was standing nearby overheard their conversation and chimed in.

  "Oh, so what's the big deal about this?" asked the boy who was initially inquiring about the entertainment.

  The boy who just spoke not only noticed these two, but also many handsome men and beautiful women around him, got a bit excited and said: "Of course it's related, this Bi Li Entertainment is the company founded by Lu Li, the creator of 'Gong Xi Fa Cai'. Lu Li can be considered our senior, he just graduated from our school last year, I didn't expect that this year he would come back to our school as a boss to hold a recruitment."

  "By the way, if you like reading online novels, you should know that Lu Li is a web novel god." After a while, this boy seemed to suddenly remember and added, "It seems that I really do know more about Lu Li."

  "Hmph, so he's Lu Li. I suppose there's not much future for him in this company either. Being able to write 'Gong Xi Fa Cai' can only be attributed to good luck." The wealthy-looking person still showed disdain upon hearing this.

  "Xin Xin, what's your view on this?" One of the two girls who were standing not far away asked as they walked to one side after hearing the boy's words.

  "I think this entertainment is pretty good, at least the conditions offered are very favorable, but I don't know if I can be admitted," said a girl called Xinxin.

  "Your voice is good, your singing skills are not bad either, and you look pretty too. How could it be that you can't get recorded? Is it true that you've really made up your mind?" Another girl asked, seeing her friend's determination waver.

  "Uh, there are a few decent film and television production companies in the mainland, but music companies are really bad. I don't want to go to Jiangsu Province either, so I'll just join this Bei Li Entertainment for now. Even if I think it's not good later, I can always jump ship again." After pausing for a moment, Xinxin continued: "Besides, my family is not well off, and being able to get such great treatment will also help alleviate the situation at home."

  The girl on the side was silent for a while before sighing: "Well, I'll be graduating and returning to Taiwan Province soon. I originally wanted to invite you to come together, but now it seems impossible. Who knows when we can meet again in the future."

  "It's okay, we'll definitely all be in the entertainment industry in the future and will have a chance to meet again." Xinxin heard her friend's words, shook her hand, and smiled.

  "I hope so, since you've decided then go for an interview quickly." Xinxin's good friend said.

  "Hmm." Xinxin responded with a murmur and walked towards the recruitment desk.

  Lu Li sat behind the desk, looking at the people gathered in front of her with a sense of helplessness. The recruitment had started for so long, but no one came to apply.

  However, Lu Li had already listened to Shen Pengjun's words and was secretly tempering his own heart, so he didn't feel anxious. On the other hand, Meng Qi beside him seemed a bit anxious and had already called on Lu Li to think of a solution several times.

  "A Li, if you don't think of something, we'll really have come in vain this time. You..." Mei Qi finally couldn't help but mutter again.

  "Hello, I'm here to apply as a singer." But Meng Qi's words hadn't finished yet when they were interrupted by an extremely sweet voice.

  The two of them simultaneously lifted their heads and found a beautiful woman about 1 meter 6 centimeters tall standing in front of the table.

  Meng Qi finally saw someone coming to apply, and it was a beautiful woman. She seemed even more excited than Lu Li, and hurriedly asked: "May I ask what your name is? What major did you study?"

  "My name is Wen Sixin, and I'm studying vocal music."

  "Wow, your voice is great! You must be good at singing too. Can you sing a segment live?" Lu Li saw Meng Qi ask only two questions and was about to hand over the form for others to register, so she hastily stopped her.

  Wen Si Xun looked around at the people, seemingly a bit embarrassed to sing in front of so many people. However, thinking that if she really became a singer, she would have to sing in front of even more people, she mustered up her courage and started singing.

  "Stop, that's enough. Fill out this form and wait for our notice." Lu Li stopped Wen Sihui as soon as he opened his mouth, because Lu Li was extremely excited at the moment.

  He didn't expect Wen Si Xian's singing voice to be so different from her speaking voice, not that she sang badly, but extremely well. Moreover, Lu Li discovered that Wen Si Xian's singing voice was very ethereal and dreamy, similar to Wang Fei on Earth, which made Lu Li excited. With the songs in his mind, he could definitely create a heavenly queen.

  Wen Xing heard Lu Li's words, took the form handed over by Meng Qi, filled in the information. After hearing that Lu Li said she would get the news at the latest tonight, she left here.

  It seems like Wen Si Xing took the lead, and then several people came up one after another to apply for the job.

  After these people finished filling out the forms, Lu Li looked at the time and saw that it was almost over. The remaining people didn't have any intention of interviewing either, so he notified the student union's junior brothers that the recruitment had ended and they could pack up their things.

  At noon, Lu Li also invited those who helped the student union to have lunch together, as a thank you for their help in promoting and organizing the recruitment.

  Afterwards, Lu Li called to inform those who passed the interview in the morning to sign a contract. After all, these people still need to study at school for a period of time before they can officially graduate, and no one knows what will happen during this period, so signing a contract is necessary, otherwise, Lu Li estimates that he will face the situation where not a single person signs again.

  After this recruitment, the singer Wen Sixin, Mi Xinhua, Min Rui Sheng, bassist Ding Liang, drummer Jin Xin Zhi, mixer Long Bin, and several backing vocalists signed contracts, Lu Li called Jiang You to ask about his situation.

  "Soy sauce, I've finished my part here, how about you?" Lu Li asked as soon as the call connected.

  "Hmm, there aren't many people recruited, and most of them are those who intend to become actors. There are relatively fewer behind-the-scenes personnel." Jiang You replied over the phone.

  "Hasn't that already been signed?" Lu Li heard this answer and wasn't surprised at all, after all Bie Li Entertainment didn't have a big name yet, being able to recruit people was good enough, and the small number of people was natural.

  "Of course, everything is taken care of, don't worry about it." Jiang You replied.

  "Alright then, let's meet at the airport, I'll go ahead with Meng Qi."

  "Uh, let Chen Bing go first, the teacher asked me to stay here for a few more days, and my dad is also around here." Jiang You replied.

  "Hey, that's right! Why don't you see if Uncle Jiang has any ideas and wants to work with you? We can be like brothers in arms, or father and son soldiers. If he's willing, we can all come together and have some fun." Lu Li suddenly thought of this when he heard Jiang You's words. Although Jiang Wei was just a small director, his experience was extremely rich and definitely not something that the current Jiang You could compare to. Now if he were to come and help Jiang You, it would definitely be a huge help.

  "Uh, okay, I'll just talk to my dad about it then." Jiang You said and hung up the phone. Lu Li, however, went to the airport with Meng Qi to wait for Chen Bing.
