Kyoto, Shenxin Entertainment.
Xu Fei sat in her office with a frown on her face. The promotional video of Chen Guanghan's new movie had just finished playing on her mobile phone.
Shenxin Entertainment is one of the top ten companies in the industry, with several first-line and even top-level artists under its umbrella.
Xu Fei is a high-ranking employee in the company, so she has an independent office. When she is free, she usually plays with her mobile phone or looks at her computer in the office.
But after listening to Lin Yao's song "Hua Xin" today, she was in no mood to have fun at all.
"This song is of great quality. Lin Yao has broken through the ceiling of her own style and achieved a breakthrough in her singing skills."
Her ever-smiling agent, Li Hao, sat opposite Xu Fei and was analyzing the situation objectively:
"Also, this song is very suitable for the plot of the movie. If I were Chen Guanghan, I would also choose Lin Yao's song."
Bang!
Xu Fei slammed the table and glared at Li Hao.
It’s no wonder that Xu Fei reacted so strongly. Since Chen Guanghan released the promotional video of his movie on Weibo today, the entire entertainment industry has been in an uproar.
Movie fans are very much looking forward to the new film from the billionaire director, and the song "Hua Xin" that runs through the entire promotional video is equally amazing.
Especially the dolphin sound at the end of Lin Yao left a deep impression on everyone who heard it.
Some passersby who had only heard of Lin Yao's name but didn't know much about her were immediately attracted by her amazing voice and went to listen to her other songs.
This also led to several of Lin Yao's songs entering the top 50 of the hot song list.
The Hot Songs Chart is different from the New Songs Chart. This chart ranks all songs by download and purchase volume. Songs that rank in the top 50 are basically from first-tier singers with a large fan base.
The top ten is the stage where top singers and even the kings and queens of singing compete.
As a newcomer who has debuted for two years, it is a huge honor for Lin Yao to have several songs enter the top 50.
And this is exactly the heat effect brought by the theme song of a great director's movie.
On the hot song chart, Xu Fei originally had one song ranked 41st and one song ranked 16th, which was considered a good result for her level.
But after the appearance of "Hua Xin" and the popularity of Lin Yao's other songs, the song ranked 41st was squeezed out by Lin Yao's "Roof".
"Hua Xin" cannot be listed on the charts for the time being because it has not been officially released yet. However, judging from its current popularity, once this song starts to be listed, it is very likely to break into the top 20 of the hot song charts.
Moreover, Lin Yao is so young, beautiful, and has a great voice. She has all the qualities that a female singer dreams of having.
This made Xu Fei feel a strong sense of crisis.
However, Xu Fei's agent didn't seem to be in a hurry. Li Hao reached out and grabbed Xu Fei's hand that was slapping the table, brought it to his lips and blew gently, then asked:
"Does it hurt?"
Xu Fei still stared at him, but did not pull his hand away, and his expression had obviously softened.
Li Hao then smiled faintly and said, "I've already talked to the management, and they also think Lin Yao is a threat to the company's several female singers."
Xu Fei immediately asked, "What does the company plan to do?"
"As far as I know, Tianhai Company has financial problems. In fact, they will be in chaos on their own without us doing anything."
Li Hao spread his hands.
"No, that's between companies. I've already been pushed twice by a newcomer. If I don't respond, what will others think of me?"
Xu Fei pressed on: "You must have a way, right?"
"You are always so impatient." Li Hao shook his head and said confidently:
"The company has already started competing with Tianhai for some resources. Lin Yao is in talks for two more endorsements, and they should all be yours."
"Isn't it enough that I've accepted endorsements? Why would I want this?" Xu Fei was still dissatisfied:
"Lin Yao and I are both singers, and the Golden Melody Awards and Silver Dragon Awards are the most important to us."
"You're right." Li Hao continued slowly, "So I've found a few well-known songwriters for you. I think they'll be able to create some high-quality new songs for you soon."
He gently patted the back of Xu Fei's hand, his eyes eager: "My expectation for you is not to get rid of newcomers like Lin Yao, but to become the Queen of Gold and Dragon!"
Xu Fei suddenly looked up and looked at Li Hao in surprise: "You really dare to think so!"
There are two most important award ceremonies in the Chinese music scene every year, one is the Golden Melody Awards at the end of the year, and the other is the Silver Dragon Awards before the Spring Festival.
If a singer can win the "Best Singer" award at two award ceremonies at the same time, it can be said to be the greatest recognition and honor.
Almost all of the current kings and queens of the music scene have established their current status after winning the "Golden Dragon" and "Best" awards.
Although Xu Fei has already firmly established himself among the top talents, he still feels a little distance away from those people.
So after hearing what Li Hao said, he was very surprised and looked at Li Hao hesitantly and said:
"This is the Golden Dragon Double Diva... You think it's too easy, don't you?"
Li Hao laughed and said, "What if you have several songs that simultaneously enter the top ten of the Hot Songs chart before the end of the year, and one of them even wins the number one spot?"
"I'm not a little girl anymore, don't give me chicken soup!" Xu Fei sneered.
"My highest-ranked song right now is only number 16. How can I get into the top ten, or even win the title?"
"Didn't you say you'd find someone to help you create a new song soon? And..."
Li Hao paused and continued:
"I'll go to Jiangrong in a couple of days."
"What are you doing at Jiangrong?" Xu Fei was stunned for a moment, then realized: "Fang Xiaole?"
She looked at Li Hao with amusement: "Do you think Fang Xiaole, who wrote a few songs for Lin Yao, can help me win the Golden Dragon Double Song Queen? Li Hao, are you overthinking it?"
Xu Fei had no intention of looking down on Fang Xiaole. On the contrary, she also wanted to recruit Fang Xiaole to write songs for her.
Fang Xiaole is indeed an excellent songwriter, otherwise the three songs he wrote for Lin Yao would not have ranked so high on the new song chart.
But being good is one thing, being the best is another.
Relying on a grassroots songwriter to make herself a queen of singing?
Is this possible?
"Give it a try." Li Hao looked at Xu Fei, his eyes softening.
"You've sacrificed a lot for me, and I want to help you realize your dream as soon as possible."
"Li Hao..."
Being looked at so tenderly by Li Hao, Xu Fei also became tender and affectionate. She walked to Li Hao's side, bent down and hugged him.
"If I win the double song queen award, let's make our story public... I don't want to give up our children for my career anymore."
Li Hao's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After a long time, he finally held Xu Fei's hand and said slowly:
"good."
