Ling Xia rubbed her neck, shook her shoulders, and picked up her phone. She had been sitting in the chair for three hours, and the resume on the table was the result of her work.
Ling Xia looked up at her colleagues around her who were working intently. Everyone was very serious, and this kind of work attitude was the norm for ordinary people.
I go to get off work and come home on time every day. I have two days off a week, but most of the time I'm tidying up my room, which has become a bit dirty because of work, and washing up the clothes I've changed out of.
There are only a few days a year when you can reunite with your family, and those reunions pass by very quickly.
Back then, I earned 3000 yuan a month. One-third went to rent, one-third to living expenses, and the remaining one-third to savings. In the end, I couldn't save more than tens of thousands of yuan a year. When I had a happy occasion, I had no one to help me save money for half a month.
However, I only felt like I had grown up when I stopped spending my family's money and started calling to report good news but not bad.
Why was it so important to save money? At the time, I thought it was so that if anything happened, I could help my family; no matter how serious the disaster, even if I lost my job, I would feel calmer because I had money in my hands.
Ling Xia thought for a moment and decided that she should treat them to some milk tea!
Half an hour later, the milk tea that Lingxia ordered arrived downstairs at the company. Lingxia asked Tiantian to pick up the delivery guy. When Tiantian and the delivery guy arrived at the floor, all the employees of Xingyao exclaimed "Wow!"
One voice is relatively small, but the voices of a group of people together become very loud.
They didn't know why there were so many coffees, and one by one they pulled their eyes away from their resumes to stare at the milk tea.
Ling Xia chuckled and coughed lightly, "I'm sorry to trouble you all these past few days, but I bought some milk tea as a way to keep us going."
Everyone applauded, and in the instant Ling Xia waved her hand, they were all in front of the table where the milk tea was placed.
Lingxia only bought milk tea of the same flavor so that there would be no conflict in choosing milk tea.
If she hadn't traveled to this place, she would probably still be working a nine-to-five job, earning a meager salary, and living an ordinary life.
Ling Xia couldn't help but sigh, "Life is unpredictable."
......
The casting process for "The Journey of Flower" is still underway, with auditions in full swing.
The novel "The Journey of Flower" is being updated daily with one chapter on the blog, and netizens are saying that the updates are too infrequent, but the number of book fans is increasing at an incredible speed.
Book fans were both criticizing and enthusiastically discussing the plot of the drama.
The novel has 148 chapters. At this update speed, it will take another 4 months to update. By then, "The Journey of Flower" should have been filmed for 1/3 of the time.
Before the TV series "The Journey of Flower" was filmed, Ling Xia was not idle. Sister Zhao got her several endorsements from high-end luxury brands.
Every day is spent attending fashion shows, shooting magazine covers, and filming promotional videos.
That day, when Ling Xia was supposed to be interviewing several main actors as an interviewer, Sister Zhao pulled her to a meeting room next door. "The theme song for the movie 'Who is the Spy' has been decided. It's your song 'Infernal Affairs,' and thanks to you, the movie has been renamed 'Infernal Affairs.' The director said he appreciates you very much, and they have adopted your suggestion. The song will be sung by the two main actors."
"The movie will be released next month, and I would like to extend a special invitation to you to attend the premiere."
"next month?"
They were only given a week to watch "Infernal Affairs," and it's already going to be released so soon.
Sister Zhao explained to Ling Xia, "The movie was already finished filming, and all that was left was post-production editing and adding the theme song. Post-production editing has been ongoing, and we can only wait for the theme song. It is said that many companies have already given the director the songs written by their own composers, but Director Luo Yuan is still not satisfied."
"The production team was originally prepared to make do, but then your 'Infernal Affairs' was delivered, and they decided to use your song."
"I see."
Sister Zhao said excitedly, "There's not much time left next month. The casting for 'The Journey of Flower' should be finished before the premiere. You can go to the premiere and make more new friends. This will be very helpful for your future development in Hong Kong. Director Luo Yuan has a lot of influence in Hong Kong."
Luo Yuan, a prominent figure in Hong Kong cinema, graduated from the Hong Kong Film Academy. He initially worked as an assistant director before venturing into directing at the age of 25 with the film *Who Knows a Woman's Heart*. His debut film earned him a nomination for Best Director at the 8th Hong Kong Film Awards, officially bringing him into the public eye. He excels at filming crime, suspense, and tragic stories, skillfully using narratives to explore themes of love, friendship, and family. His films have launched the careers of many award-winning actors and actresses.
"I know Sister Zhao, but is Chen Chong's 'Blooming Life' going to be on the music charts in the next few days?" Ling Xia asked.
Sister Zhao nodded, "Indeed, I've listened to the songs of the other singers in the company, and they're not very good. The company should increase its efforts to promote Chen Chong's new song." Sister Zhao glanced at Ling Xia, who was deep in thought, "What, are you really going to try to become a top singer this year? But it's not impossible."
"Lone Warrior broke a million views directly because of the Spring Festival Gala platform, Big Fish was loved by the public because of Zhou Shen's ethereal voice, and Infernal Affairs was sung by two Heavenly Kings, so it should break a million views too. Thinking about it, you already have 3 songs that have broken a million views, you have become an intermediate composer, and there is also Blooming in Life which will reach its limit tomorrow..." Sister Zhao muttered to herself, was she going to witness the appearance of Qu Die? She looked at Ling Xia in disbelief.
Calm down, calm down, let's talk about facts. It's no wonder the company values Ling Xia so much, as she only produced two songs that sold over a million copies in less than a year.
"Sister Zhao, I'd like to meet that trainee named Yi Minghao," Ling Xia said to Sister Zhao, snapping out of her reverie.
"Yi Minghao...do you have a new song again?" Sister Zhao was utterly astonished by her own thought.
Ling Xia nodded. "Tell him to wait for me in recording studio number one." Then Ling Xia pushed open the door and walked out.
Sister Zhao hadn't recovered from the shock. Yi Minghao was a newcomer. Did Ling Xia want to compete for the June Newcomer Season? June was right around the time of the college entrance exams, and many record companies would release new songs that month because it captured most students' feelings of attachment to school and friends, their emotions of parting, and their uncertainty about the future.
And these students will bring you a lot of traffic in the future.
After the college entrance examination, more than ten million teenagers aged seventeen or eighteen will enter university, and they will buy mobile phones. With mobile phones, of course they will listen to music.
I think I'll go to the publicity department and check the download numbers for "Life in Full Bloom" in May before considering June. Yes, let's take it one step at a time.
Sister Zhao took a deep breath and walked out of the room.
