Lin Rui nodded. He had already reviewed the contract terms before signing and had no objections.

“Your contract requires you to work in the office. Considering that you are still in school, I can give you some privileges, such as working after school.”

"Of course, to avoid gossip, in addition to completing the fixed task of producing at least three works per year, you also need to complete a list of tasks."

After saying that, he pulled out a stack of bound documents from the folder.

Lin Rui began to look through the documents, which listed more than twenty tasks, each with its own requirements, deadline, and latest quote.

This list is entirely composed of custom-made songs!

After flipping through more than a dozen pages, a task suddenly caught Lin Rui's attention.

It's not that there are any harsh requirements for the work, but the price for this task is only fifty thousand!

It's worth noting that the customized tasks I reviewed before ranged in price from four or five hundred thousand to several million or even tens of millions.

Therefore, this customized task with a price of only 50,000 is like a clear stream that stands out in a turbid world, making it hard not to attract attention.

"What? Interested in this mission?"

Chen Tianye said with a half-smile, "This is an official task. I suggest you look at something else."

"Is it very difficult?" Lin Rui asked curiously.

"It's not difficult in some ways, but it's not simple in others either." Chen Tianye first shook his head, then nodded.

"Let me explain to you first. This customized list you have is not only for us, but for all entertainment companies in Xiazhou."

"When production is nearing completion, the sample will be submitted to the client for review. If it is not up to standard, the client will return the sample. Once the review is approved, someone will be sent to the company immediately to sign the contract."

"Major entertainment companies are keen to take on customized projects, but there is one exception: commissions from official sources."

"The budget is secondary. Since we are willing to accept the official commission, money is not that important."

"The reason why major entertainment companies are not interested in official missions is that the time is tight, the difficulty is very high, the review is very strict, the scale is controlled, the budget is small, and some missions even involve competition with Washington State."

"This is a thankless and arduous task, unless you are extremely confident in yourself and happen to create a work that is highly compatible with the task. Otherwise, you should avoid it like the plague."

"Isn't there any benefit at all?"

Lin Rui frowned slightly.

“There are benefits, of course, even bigger than you can imagine,” Chen Tianye said with a smile. “But those benefits are only for bosses to think about, and have little to do with us working people.”

Lin Rui looked enlightened and continued to look at the task details in front of him.

[Create a song themed around youth, using graduation season as a backdrop and incorporating video footage.]

It's not particularly difficult, but it's not insignificant either.

With its theme of youth, its background of graduation season, and its official commission, this song almost eliminated more than half of the songs on the market.

Most youth songs currently on the market focus on love.

Seriously, this song with a lovey-dovey theme was not only approved by the authorities, but also passed. This isn't just something you never see before, it's something out of the blue!

This selection process makes the official tone clear and easy to understand: it's about the passage of time, not about love.

“I’ll take this mission,” Lin Rui suddenly said.

"Won't you reconsider?"

Chen Tianye was somewhat surprised.

"No need, but can I make a small request? I'm not counting on the boss's bonus, but could you give me the full 50,000 yuan customization fee?"

"Can."

Chen Tianye nodded without even thinking.

It wasn't that he doubted whether Lin Rui could create works that met the official requirements, but rather that if Lin Rui truly passed the almost stringent review and received official recognition, Zhou Rongze would probably be laughing in his sleep at the benefits Tianrui Entertainment would receive.

Let alone a mere 50,000 yuan custom-made gift, Zhou Rongze might even give Lin Rui a huge red envelope of 500,000 yuan!

"I'll have someone send me the video footage later. I'll study it and try to finish the lyrics and music tonight."

After saying that, Lin Rui took the task list and left Chen Tianye's office.

Did I hear that right?

Will he make it tonight?

Lyrics and music completed simultaneously?

Chen Tianye was somewhat bewildered: "How come this kid is even more arrogant than I was when I was young?"
