Bronze treasure chest
Lin Yuan looked at the system's storage grid and became a little worried for no reason: "Is there a bomb in this box?"
The system ignored Lin Yuan.
To be on the safe side, Lin Yuan found an excuse to go to the bathroom before opening the first bronze treasure chest he had obtained.
Mission Reward: Professional-level Piano Skills
The moment the bronze treasure chest was opened, countless piano skills suddenly appeared in Lin Yuan's mind.
Such as arpeggios, chords, finger rolls, large leaps, octaves, and even three-sixth scales, etc.
"That's it?"
Lin Yuan was not very satisfied.
Because the original owner already had the tenth level of Blue Star piano, this was not a difficult task for a child who had aspired to be a musician since childhood.
It would be better to reward songs, novels or something.
The system did not seem to be very satisfied with Lin Yuan's attitude. It replied to Lin Yuan with a mechanical synthesized voice without any emotion: "Treasure chests are divided into four levels: bronze, silver, gold, and diamond. But even in the lowest level bronze treasure chest, the things contained must be of certain value."
"So what is the level of a professional piano?"
Lin Yuan needs to figure out what the system's standards for "professionalism" are.
The system responded: "The host's current piano level is beyond the reach of most ordinary people. Even some piano geniuses with outstanding talents need to practice hard for at least ten years to reach this level. As for the so-called tenth level of piano played by the host, isn't that a level that even elementary school students can pass?"
"All right."
Lin Yuan accepted the result and ignored the vague mockery in the system's last sentence: "What level is above the professional level?"
"After professional is top level, after top is master level, and after that is perfect level, which correspond to silver treasure chest, gold treasure chest, and precious diamond treasure chest respectively."
"When will these treasure chests be given to me?"
"This requires the host to rely on his own strength and luck to draw. Generally speaking, there are two ways to obtain it. The first channel is to complete the tasks issued by the system; the second channel is to reach a certain standard of reputation points, such as your total reputation exceeding 10,000."
"What is my current reputation?"
As soon as Lin Yuan finished speaking, a few lines of light blue font appeared in front of him:
Age: 19
Lifespan: 22
Painting: 45
Literature: 105
Music: 2509
Overall: 2659
Others: Waiting to be opened
The categories of painting and literature remained unchanged, but the category of music increased significantly.
It was probably due to the bonus of piano skills he had just acquired, as well as the reputation he gained from recording the song "Born Like Summer Flowers".
It seems that if you want to break 10,000 in total reputation, you have to wait for "Born Like Summer Flowers" to be officially released.
Lin Yuan washed his hands and walked out of the bathroom.
At this time, people from Xingmang’s Finance Department and Legal Department came up to him to sign a contract, a contract for "Born Like Summer Flowers", which was also a routine procedure.
The contract states—
After the song "Born Like Summer Flowers" is released, 80% of the revenue generated by the song will belong to the company, and the remaining 20% will be divided between Lin Yuan and Sun Yaohuo.
Among them, Sun Yaohuo took 0.5%.
Lin Yuan wrote the lyrics and composed the music, and also completed the arrangement on his own, so he got 15% of the commission.
Sun Yaohuo had no objection.
He kept a low profile and did not regard the singing of "Born Like Summer Flowers" as an opportunity to make money, but rather as an opportunity for his debut, so he signed the contract very readily.
Lin Yuan had no objection either.
Although he also wanted to get a larger share of the profits, he, like Sun Yaohuo, was a newcomer and was not qualified to negotiate terms with the company, so the company could just divide the profits however it wanted.
Only industry leaders can make the company make concessions on profit sharing.
Signed.
Someone from the Finance Department reminded Lin Yuan: "The song will be released on time on November 1st, and the source of the song will appear on all major channels that cooperate with the company."
"OK."
Lin Yuan nodded.
After signing the contract, the staff from the Resources and Publicity Department also came to find Lin Yuan. There was a form to sign, which required Lin Yuan to fill in some information.
"First, your name."
The staff of the Resource and Publicity Department guided Lin Yuan to fill in the form: "In the lyrics and music column, you can write your own name, or you can write a pseudonym like a pen name, but once you write it, don't change it casually."
"Xianyu, is that okay?"
"You don't plan to use your real name?"
Lin Yuan nodded. He was a little reluctant to show up in public, so it was better to keep a low profile.
"Can."
The staff said it was no problem.
Then Lin Yuan wrote the two words "Xian Yu" in the signature column of lyrics and composition.
Although the memories of his previous life were very vague, Lin Yuan could still roughly remember some classic poems and verses, such as this one:
It is better to step back and weave a net than to stand by the river and envy the fish.
But why does “恩鱼” sound a bit like “咸鱼”
Immediately following.
The list required Lin Yuan to write the background of the song.
Lin Yuan fell into deep thought.
Seeing that Lin Yuan was in a dilemma, the staff member said skillfully, "Don't worry about it. Just say a few words. The other lyricists and composers also write them casually. No one cares anyway."
"Um."
Lin Yuan thought for a moment and wrote down the following words: "Life is as gorgeous as summer flowers, and death is as quiet and beautiful as autumn leaves."
This is the origin of the song title.
After writing, he turned and left.
The staff member took the list left by Lin Yuan and looked at the words written by Lin Yuan on it. For a moment, he was a little dazed.
Life is as gorgeous as summer flowers, and death is as quiet and beautiful as autumn leaves.
On a blue planet without Tagore, the lethality of such a short poem is still quite strong.
Even if one has no literary talent, one can still appreciate the profoundness of life in this exquisite text.
Come back to your senses.
The staff member smiled and murmured, "It seems that the publicity people don't have to worry about the publicity title this time."
…
When Lin Yuan left, he sent a message to Zhao Jue. Seeing that the other party did not reply, Lin Yuan took a taxi back to school.
And at this time.
The general manager's office of Xingmang.
Zhao Jue was facing pressure from his boss at work and had no time to look at his phone.
"Sha Hai is going to arrange for Qian Xingyu to debut in the rookie season this year. How do you plan to deal with this?"
The boss's voice was calm.
However, Zhao Jue could hear the dissatisfaction hidden behind his voice.
Of course, there is reason to be unhappy, because Qian Xingyu is not a newcomer at all, but the second male lead in a hit drama last month.
What are the default rules for the rookie season
As long as they are new in the music industry, they can release songs during this period.
If an actor like Qian Xingyu who already has a certain degree of fame wants to release a song, he can certainly be considered a newcomer in the music industry.
After all, he had only acted in movies before and had never sung a song.
But this is very unfair to other newcomers.
Therefore, some people in the industry have previously suggested that actors should not be allowed to debut as new singers, because the rookie season is an opportunity reserved for those pure newcomers in the entertainment industry!
But this proposal was not adopted by the higher-ups.
However, the emergence of this proposal is not useless.
Many famous actors do care about their reputation, so even if they want to dabble in the music industry, in order to avoid industry controversy, they will not release songs in November, the rookie season, and compete with a group of pure newcomers for opportunities.
But new actors do not fall into this category.
Before this year's hit drama became a huge success, Qian Xingyu had never acted in any drama and was also a newcomer in the entertainment industry!
So his case is very special.
Even if he were to compete with pure rookies for the rookie season rankings, it wouldn't cause too much controversy. After all, he suddenly became popular when the rookie season was approaching.
In this way, Qian Xingyu's advantage is too great.
After all, he has a hit drama as a foundation, so it is easy to promote it. Even if the quality of the songs is not that good, his own fans can help him to get them on the charts without any brains!
Think of this.
Zhao Jue could only carefully prepare his words: "Qian Xingyu is definitely aiming for the first place. With him in the first place, the value of the second and third places will also be improved..."
"You are very tight."
The boss is a middle-aged man with an elegant temperament.
As the general manager of Xingmang, he appears to be quite easy-going, but everyone in the company knows that you can’t judge a person by his appearance alone.
This boss, who appears to be gentle and easy-going, is like the devil when he gets angry.
The boss tapped his fingers on the table and said softly, "Your military order this year was really hasty... Aim for the top three in the rookie season! If you don't meet the target, even I won't be able to make things right... When the time comes, I will demote you for a period of time. You may have to suffer for a year or two, and then you can come back to continue to be your chief agent."
"good."
Zhao Jue took a deep breath. Ever since Lin Yuan’s throat problem, she had been mentally prepared.
"in addition… "
The boss reminded him, "Even if no one makes it to the top three, we still have to occupy a few more places in the top ten, and at the same time, we have to improve the highest ranking of our newcomers as much as possible. Only in this way can I do my best to help you speak in front of those senior executives."
"clear."
Zhao Jue knew that the boss was quite good to him, and that he was able to become the chief because of the boss's promotion over the years.
"You can get out now."
The boss waved his hand.
Zhao Jue nodded and left the office. After adjusting her mentality, she took out her cell phone and called Lin Yuan: "Where are you? I'll take you back to school."
"I'm already back at school."
Lin Yuan said: "I just sent you a message, you may not have noticed."
Zhao Jue was stunned for a moment, then said, "Okay, then you can go back. Be careful on the road. Wait until the newcomer season in November, and I will see if I can arrange more good resources for you so that you can get into the top ten of the charts. I personally think your song is good and has hope."
"Well, thanks, Sister Zhao."
No matter how slow Lin Yuan was, he could still feel Zhao Jue's care for him. From many details, it could be seen that Zhao Jue really admired the original owner.
"Thank you, I'm hanging up."
Zhao Jue said with a smile, but his smile was a little bitter.
Helping you is actually helping myself. If I can get into the top ten, the thunder that falls on my head may be a little lighter...
