"Who is this Zhaixing? How dare he challenge Chen Shaoyan to a singing contest?"
You may not have heard of "Zhaixing", but you must have heard of the super popular song "Xiaochou" (消愁), which was written by Zhaixing.
"So it turns out he's the lyricist and composer of 'Sorrow'. Although the song is well-written, he has too few representative works, which is a bit lacking. Chen Shaoyan has more than 30 representative works under his name. This move by Zhaixing is a bit too hasty."
"Trying to step on industry veterans to gain fame is a common behavior in all industries, and it's understandable."
"That's true, but shouldn't we have chosen a senior who isn't too far behind? Of all people to choose, why did we have to pick Chen Shaoyan? He's considered one of the strongest aces after the God of Music, alongside Zhang Zhenyuan. Could this Zhaixing be the God of Music?"
"Don't be ridiculous. There are only a few true music gods in the Chinese music scene. If Sunset Glow really had a music god, it would have gone public long ago. Besides, which music god would just casually show up and compete in singing?"
"Well, it seems like tonight's singing battle isn't going to be very interesting. I was hoping that Zhaixing would be some big shot and I was looking forward to seeing what he would do."
"I prefer watching evenly matched singing battles, rather than these kinds of battles where you can guess the outcome before they even begin. They're boring. I just spend five cents to cast my vote and leave."
"I'd like to know who Zhaixing is. Is it possible that we all know each other?"
"..."
The number of people participating in the vote jumped from over a million to nearly three or four million in just half an hour.
Many people came to see Chen Shaoyan because they heard he was going to have a singing competition, but their hopes were dashed when they saw that it was a name no one recognized.
It wasn't until a kind person reminded me that Zhaixing was the recently popular lyricist and composer of Xiaochou that I remembered her.
After the two companies finalized the agreement.
The biggest controversy is about the sunset.
Everyone in every department was talking about this.
"Manager, look, Ling'er's in trouble now! Her new song is going to be a singing battle with Chen Shaoyan, isn't she going to lose everything?"
There are also many similar criticisms within the artist management department.
Supervisor Bian was too lazy to even bother with it.
Tonight, "Countdown" will give everyone a definitive answer.
...
"Song Yuqin!"
The vice president's voice echoed from the composition department's corridor into the vast office area, so loud it startled everyone.
I guess they came to settle scores with the director because of the singing competition.
"Damn it, damn it, I feel like the director's work performance is worse this year than last year. We finally made it through the tough times we set, and now this singing competition thing is happening. Fine, let's do it, but the promotion period is only one month... I don't even want to think about how much money this is going to cost." A female top songwriter in the office area said this.
"Stop talking, I'm going to get yelled at. I'm going back to my office." The smart ones had already disappeared; who would dare watch such a spectacle?
When the vice president arrived at Song Yuqin's office, he found her chatting and laughing with Xiao Zhang. He vaguely heard her say, "Wanxia's profits should skyrocket by about 400% to 600% in the next month." The vice president was furious.
"Song Yuqin!!!"
The vice president practically yelled it out; he's actually quite restrained now.
If you promote it for a month, and it's all the works, wouldn't that cost hundreds of millions of dollars?
"Vice President?" Seeing the other party's anger, Song Yuqin calmly poured a cup of tea: "Vice President, please sit down and let me explain."
"Explain? Explain what? Explain your wastefulness? You dare to promote it for a month? In the past two years, Chen Shaoyan has made five moves, and every time he won the season or monthly championship, he was a sure thing?"
The vice president practically pointed his finger at Song Yuqin and started yelling at her.
With such a major incident occurring in the music department, as Director Song's direct superior, he, as the vice president, is also partly to blame.
I just got a real dressing down from my boss.
Damn it.
"Fine, Xiao Zhang, just play the video." Seeing the vice president's explosive reaction, Song Yuqin didn't bother explaining and opted for a simple and direct approach.
"Don't give me that, what video are you watching?" The vice president was there to hold him accountable and to separate him from the group. He didn't want to take the blame for this, and he couldn't afford to.
However, Xiao Zhang had already slowly turned the laptop he had prepared beforehand around, with the screen facing the vice president.
Inside, a music video was playing.
Moreover, the video quality is very clear, at least 4K.
The ability to achieve 4K image quality at least proves one thing: it has commercial value, which is why so much money is spent on image quality.
The setting in mV is at night.
Despite it being nighttime, the stage set up on the rooftop was visible, its lights dazzling and mesmerizing.
The atmosphere of extravagance and debauchery slowly unfolded.
The camera focused on the exotic princess on stage, draped in a long white dress and adorned with a magnificent headdress; the pristine white fitted dress shimmered with a soft glow.
Both her demeanor and appearance instantly captivated the middle-aged vice president.
Then the singing began.
The performance gradually quelled the vice president's anger.
He even reacted to it.
A few minutes later.
The vice president had just finished drinking the tea on the table, but his tone was still a bit sharp: "The female singer in the music video is indeed great, but what do you mean by this?"
"This countdown song was written by Zhaixing, who is Zhaoyang. This video is the music video for the countdown."
A short sentence conveys a wealth of information.
Before the vice president could react, he was about to explode when he paused, "Zhaixing is Zhaoyang? Wait... is this a song he wrote to compete with Chen Shaoyan in singing?"
"Yes," Song Yuqin replied accurately.
The vice president's mind went blank for a moment. He paced back and forth in his office, looking at each other for a long time before finally speaking: "Isn't Zhaoyang a singer? How can his songwriting be so amazing?"
"God feeds us," Song Yuqin replied simply and powerfully.
The vice president looked delighted: "Who wanted to shoot this music video? The idea is incredibly creative."
After watching the music video, the vice president just thought it was filmed by some bigwig from another company, and it was indeed very impressive.
That female singer's looks and charisma were absolutely top-notch at that moment.
For a fleeting moment, the vice president had the idea of keeping that female singer as a mistress.
"Zhaoyang." Song Yuqin poured a full cup of tea for the vice president.
"He..." The vice president hadn't even sat down yet, his face showing disbelief. He had previously thought that Zhao Yang was just playing around when he was transferred to the composition department, but he didn't expect him to be serious.
"Yuqin".
After calming down, the vice president softened his tone and forced a smile: "Vice president, you were a little loud just now. Please don't mind. After all, I was only considering the company's interests."
"It's alright, Vice President. Everything is for the company's best interests. I've already encrypted and sent the music video to you. Take it and report to your superiors. As for the rest, we'll see at 6 PM tonight." As a woman, Song Yuqin considered herself to have very discerning taste, but even so, she was still amazed by the countdown music video.
If women are like this, then men and boys are absolutely powerless against it.
Let's put it this way: as long as the vice president brings the music video to the board of directors, without saying much, once it's played, those old shareholders will know just how much commercial value this short music video has.
This is the most authoritative explanation.
