"Representative, your song is so great. Not only did it help Xingmang win first place in the season, but it also made everyone in Qin and Qi realize your strength. I was too stupid before and didn't even realize that your song contains so many humanistic thoughts. Pop songs can also have such rich connotations..."
Wu Yong talked incessantly.
Lin Yuan was sitting in the representative's office and had no idea which song Wu Yong was talking about. Could it be "Change Yourself"? Isn't this just an ordinary pop song? There is rhythm and blues in the world, so why exaggerate it like this
"Zhang Qi is indeed a great man!"
Wu Yong searched for Zhang Qi's music reviews and began to read them. His tone was very infectious, as if he was proud of it. Only after hearing this did Lin Yuan roughly understand the meaning of Wu Yong's words. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Which school is Zhang Qi a Chinese teacher at?"
Wu Yong: “???”
Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "This kind of person must have been the representative of the Chinese class since he was a child. He must have always gotten full marks for his essays. Maybe the question "Living Like a Summer Flower" that I encountered in the last exam was written by him."
"… "
Wu Yong whispered, "You mean, Mr. Zhang Qi's music review is not in-depth enough? Is there a deeper meaning behind this song? Can you explain it to me?"
"Good."
Lin Yuan did not force an explanation.
As the saying goes on Earth, there are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers, and everyone is free to decide how to interpret it. By the same token, there are a thousand "Alter Yourself" for a thousand listeners. You listen to your own understanding, and I listen to my own feelings.
There's nothing wrong with that.
Lin Yuan was in a good mood because the song "Change Yourself" had a huge download volume. It was the first time that a song of Lin Yuan's received millions of downloads on the first day of its release, which was a considerable amount when converted into dollars!
Having said that.
The cooperation with Chen Zhiyu is indeed a loss-making one. If it was Senior Yaohuo, I could get an extra 1.5% share. In the future, I should try not to cooperate with first-tier singers, as they are the tools with the lowest cost-effectiveness.
And at this time.
Not only was Wu Yong in awe of Lin Yuan, but the composers on all floors of Xingmang were also discussing the song sung by Chen Zhiyu in the group:
“Too cruel!”
"Xiao Qu's father is so awesome!"
"Xingmang showed his face this time!"
"Originally I thought that it would take Father Qu's help to secure first place, but I didn't expect that our little Father Qu could handle this little thing. No wonder the company let Xianyu go to make a movie. Is it too much for such a precious kid to want to make a movie for fun?"
“Not at all!”
"It's just a loss of money."
"Compared to Xianyu's importance to the company and his past contributions, let alone a movie costing less than 10 million, even if he wanted to shoot it with a budget of 20 to 30 million, the company would have no choice but to bite the bullet and accept it. Filming is just an entertainment project for Xianyu."
"It is indeed Xiao Qu's father."
"Simply speaking of the ability to write lyrics, I feel that Xianyu is better than Qudie. Qudie's songs sometimes need others to write the lyrics, but Xianyu writes all the lyrics himself, and every time the lyrics fit the music very well."
"… "
Although there is competition among departments, Xingmang is a big collective. Xianyu’s appearance means the entire Xingmang’s appearance, so every composer in the company is proud of it at this moment. Xingmang has proved its position in the industry this time!
…
Zhao Jue didn't expect that the situation could be reversed under such circumstances. She was full of confidence after asking Lin Yuan to sing a song, but the appearance of Fei Yang had completely disrupted her plan. Who knew that Fei Yang was no match for Xian Yu
"Ha ha."
Zhao Jue's assistant looked at her phone and laughed, "Sister Zhao, you don't know that almost all the first-line singers in the company are making a fuss, saying that they want to invite Xianyu to sing a song. It is naturally difficult for Qu Dad to get a song, so this little Qu Dad has become everyone's target."
"Don't bother."
Zhao Jue said unhappily, "Xianyu took a long time to write this new song. How can he start writing new songs so quickly? If they want to invite Xianyu to write a song in the future, let them let me know first. They are not allowed to bother Xianyu without my consent."
"OK."
The assistant nodded.
Zhao Jue added: "The composers are of strategic significance, and so is Xianyu. Unless he takes the initiative to collaborate with the singers, his abilities should be used where they matter most. The process of Blue Star's integration has just begun, and there are many areas where composers are needed."
Speaking of this.
Zhao Jue suddenly laughed and said, "Xuanlan must be at a loss now. They sent out a king but still failed to take first place. Although this matter cannot be blamed on Fei Yang, the mission was not completed beautifully. Our old rival must be very hurt."
assistant:"… "
Zhao Jue’s judgment was not wrong.
The people at Xuanlan Entertainment were dumbfounded. The situation reversed within a day, so quickly that there was no time to react. Not only was the company's chief agent slamming the table and cursing, but even Fei Yang himself was a little dazed.
"It's not your problem."
Fei Yang's agent spoke comfortingly.
Fei Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I don't need the decoration of being the first place. Who stipulates that the king of singing must take the first place? I am just thinking, is there a chance to cooperate with Xianyu? This person will most likely become Qu's father in the future."
“Normal channels are difficult.”
The agent hesitated for a moment and said, "It's only possible if it's some officially promoted project cooperation. With Xianyu's ability and his performance in this song, the higher-ups will notice him. We can try to get him then."
Fei Yang nodded.
He suddenly said, "Xing Mang has several old friends who are all striving to become the singing king. I guess they are more eager to cooperate with Xianyu than I am. Apart from Qu Dad, Xianyu is their best choice."
“That’s not easy.”
The agent smiled and said, "The honor of the singing king is basically monopolized by singing kings. If a first-line singer wants to be crowned the king, the popularity of one or two songs is obviously not enough. It is impossible for Xianyu to single-handedly bring out a new singing king..."
A music festival is held every year.
Every year a new singing king is born.
It stands to reason that with the annual music festival, there should be many singing kings on Blue Star, but in fact this is not the case, because singing king is not a status, but an honor, which can be awarded repeatedly...
More common cases are:
The honor of King of Singers was finally won by a singer who had already won the title. This is also the reason why the weight of the King of Singers is extremely high. It does not mean that the person who won the title of King of Singers cannot continue to participate in the selection of King of Singers. Therefore, if a first-line singer wants to be crowned king, he can only step on the shoulders of other Kings of Singers to get to the top!
What a difficult thing this is!
It’s like a relatively good actor on Earth has to compete with big names like Leung Chiu-wai and Chow Yun-fat for the Best Actor award. Those who won the award last year can still win it this year, but actors who are not at the Best Actor level must defeat other nominated Best Actor awards in order to finally win the King of Singers trophy!
Fei Yang nodded.
But no matter what, this time, he remembered Xianyu very deeply.
He had a hunch that Xianyu would become an influential figure in the music industry in the future!
In fact…
Now Xianyu already has that intention in mind. As he wins the first place in the season list again and again, the name of Xiao Qu's father is no longer limited to being circulated within Xingmang.
