The curtain of night quietly descended on the largest city in the north, the capital.
The lights that illuminated the city lit up. At first they were like little stars but, very quickly, transformed into glorious blanket of light.The vehicles on the wide roads were like an unending stream. People who just got off work hurriedly rushed back to their homes like a cycle that once again returns to the start.
In the bas.e.m.e.nt room of Jingming Community Building 7, Lu Chen swallowed the last mouthful of his egg fried rice and tapped a b.u.t.ton on his phone, again.
Thank G.o.d, he managed to get through this time!
Chen Jianhao's voice was transmitted over the phone. "Little Lu? My phone died earlier. Did you have something that you needed from me?"
Lu Chen hurriedly wiped a rice grain near his mouth and spoke, "Boss, I have some matters to complete tonight, so I would like to ask for a leave. Is it possible?"
"Take a leave?"
Chen Jianhao was clearly distracted before he replied shortly after, "a break won't be a problem. Is the matter urgent?"
"A little…"
"Boss, is there a problem at the bar?" Lu Chen was very susceptible and could hear that there was something wrong with Chen Jianhao's tone. It wasn't an angry or a dissatisfied tone but instead, a tone that made him seem a bit annoyed.
Chen Jianhao was a great boss and Lu Chen didn't want the other party to think that he was c.o.c.ky just for having some abilities.
The reason why Lu Chen requested a leave was because he had come to a decision regarding Whale TV's contract. They had straightforwardly agreed to the two requests he made and crafted a tailor-made contract especially for him.
After confirming the electronic contract, Lu Chen just needed to print three hard copies of the contract and mail one to Deep Sea City by tomorrow.
Coral Fish had impatiently created an anchor account along with a broadcasting room for him already and he would be starting his first official broadcast tonight at 8 PM. Furthermore, he would receive a new anchor recommendation on their main page.
8 PM-12 PM was the internet broadcasting prime time but Lu Chen's performance time slot at Forget Worries Bar was coincidentally during the same period. Since he wasn't able to split himself into two people, he could only request a leave for tonight from Chen Jianhao.
As for solving the conflicts between the timing, Lu Chen had a couple ideas but, as of now, the time wasn't ripe yet. Therefore, he could only find ways to stagger the time slots for the time being and try to balance both parties as much as possible.
"There's not really a problem…"
Chen Jianhao laughed, "in fact, this should be considered a good thing. A few people in the industry have heard about you and wanted to head over tonight to watch your performance. Since you have some matters, it'll be fine to change it to tomorrow."
Although the circle of bars in Houhai couldn't be said to be big, it wasn't small either. Everyone was trying to earn their keep around here and many of the bosses had great relations with each other. Their contracted singers would often perform at each other's bar or sit and mingle about.
Chen Jianhao's personal connections were very strong and had numerous friends in the circle. Therefore, someone must have heard that there was an outstanding singer with original compositions in his bar, so he called several people to come over.
The news in Houhai circulated rapidly. If Lu Chen truly had a well-deserved reputation, naturally, there would be people inviting him to perform.
If a bar only had the same few faces, regardless of how much the sequence changed, it wouldn't be easy for them to do business.
