"Mr. Xu, your first song has only been released for three days, and it's already at number one on the Fireworks Music Hot Songs Chart."
I'm even wondering whether I should release the other songs, since every single one of them is a potential hit!
In the office.
Although producer Feng Xiaoxia is very busy, she still keeps track of the situation after 'The Past You' was uploaded and released.
Because he knew very well that these released songs would eventually contribute to the film's box office success.
So at this moment, he excitedly reported the situation to Xu Lu.
To be honest, Xu Lu was also somewhat surprised that "The You of the Past" could climb to the top of the trending songs chart so quickly:
"Could it be that the music scene in this world isn't as developed as on Earth? Otherwise, how could it have topped the charts so quickly?"
Xu Lu didn't know that the reason for this was because he chose a very opportune time to release the song.
It was precisely during a 'window of opportunity' after Yang Dakun had done a huge favor that 'the former you' was able to rise to prominence so quickly.
Under normal circumstances.
While the song 'The You of the Past' is excellent, it's not so bad that it can't find a single competitor!
This is why Yang Dakun was so angry he almost vomited blood.
I worked so hard for so long, and I don't even know how many favors I've done, but it all benefited someone else!
Xu Lu was unaware of the existence of this living Lei Feng, so he mistakenly believed that the music level in this world was not very good.
Of course, no matter how good or bad it is, he has no intention of developing in this direction.
Upon hearing Feng Xiaoxia's words, Xu Lu smiled and said:
"The remaining four songs will still be released as usual; there's no need to nitpick over these details."
Okay, you're the boss, you make the decisions!
Feng Xiaoxia nodded, then suddenly said with a strange expression:
"Mr. Xu, there's something else I need to tell you. Someone in the industry has spread rumors that they want to pay a lot of money for the rights to use your song 'The You of the Past'!"
Moreover, it wasn't just anyone who leaked this information; it was your former employer, Xia Lifeng Film and Television Company. Do you think we should pay any attention to it?
Xu Lu immediately raised his eyebrows and said:
"You can have someone try to contact them. We definitely won't sell, but we can whet their appetite first."
Mr. Xu's move was really underhanded!
Feng Xiaoxia muttered to himself, but when he thought about the arrogant attitude of Xia Lifei and his two companions that day, he felt that President Xu's actions were understandable.
Moreover, he knew that the reason why President Xu started his own business was because he had been sidelined by Xia Lifeng Film and Television.
Because he lacked resources, Mr. Xu had no choice but to start his own business. Now that he sees his former employer making a foolish move, it's understandable that he'd kick him while he's down.
Another point is that Feng Xiaoxia has his own speculations about why Xia Lifei Film and Television released such a rumor.
Because the other party had previously advertised their "Happy Summer Trip" with the promise of a movie soundtrack, they now want to buy the usage rights to the song "Once Upon a Time".
It's not hard to guess that after buying 'The Past You', the other party must have intended to supply it to the movie 'Happy Summer Trip'.
Unfortunately, Mr. Xu created this song, "The You of the Past," which was originally intended for his own movie, "Summer's Depression." How could he possibly sell it to his arch-rival?
"Xia Lifei and his group don't know yet that the song was written by President Xu, which is why they're making such a big fuss about buying the copyright within the industry."
If they find out the truth, and that what they desperately want was created by the very artist they've been suppressing, I wonder if they'll be so angry they'll vomit blood?
Thinking about this, Feng Xiaoxia felt a sense of anticipation.
Of course, because this matter was so likely to incite hatred, he did not intend to contact the other party in person.
...
One day later.
Xia Lifei Films received news that the copyright holder of 'Once Upon a Time in You' is reportedly interested in selling the usage rights, but the price needs to be negotiated in detail.
Upon receiving this news, Xiong Tang immediately sent someone to contact the other party. However, after some contact, the two sides have not yet reached an agreement on the price.
At this very moment, many observant people made a surprising discovery.
The musician named Xu Lu, whose song was a hit on Huohua Music just a couple of days ago, has released a new song today.
Musicians in the industry were the first to notice this and began to discuss it:
"What's going on? Your newly released song 'The You of the Past' is still at number one on the trending songs chart, and now you've released a new song?"
"Who exactly is this singer named Xu Lu? Why was he completely unknown before?"
"This is incredible! He did everything for this new song again – writing, composing, and singing..."
"Huh, these two songs are quite different in style. I didn't expect this singer to be such a versatile artist!"
...
"It's tough to get by in this industry now, come on, we're in the music industry, it's all about inspiration, why are you being so stubborn?"
"If he only relies on that one song, 'The You of the Past,' this singer named Xu Lu will only be a flash in the pan."
But now, with another high-quality song, 'Those Flowers,' this singer has proven his talent.
"However, what's strange is that we still don't know Xu Lu's background, and no agency has acknowledged him."
"I have a feeling this singer is using a very new way of promoting themselves. I wonder if my guess is right?"
