"The increase is acceptable, but it's still too slow."
This speed is not satisfactory.
However, it was the items section that caught Li Zhaoyang's attention: "Oh? There was no reward when I got the trainee title..."
Does the system only recognize those who achieve a bronze medal as truly entering the world of lyrics and music?
Never mind, let's open it first.
[Ding! Successfully opened, randomly obtained all professional knowledge related to the song "Decent"!]
Upon seeing the song title, Li Zhaoyang jumped up as if he'd been injected with adrenaline, his eyes lighting up: "Yu Wenwen's 'Decent'?"
This song is truly a phenomenal work in the realm of sentimental songs.
Yes, "Decent" deserves to be called a phenomenon.
Back then, when a certain movie was released, "Decent" swept across the entire internet, and some elderly people began to reminisce about their exes after hearing about it.
Its reach can be described in one sentence: it's a nationwide phenomenon!
A single music platform set an astonishing record of over 2 million comments, and online discussions and bullet comments approached 100 million.
If it were released separately without the support of a movie, the effect might be slightly less, but not by much.
Sad music can resonate with you even if you don't watch the movie.
Unless you've never been hurt emotionally, it just means you're a very lucky person.
"I'll find someone to record it when I get to work tomorrow morning."
Previously, I used my off-get off work hours to rush to capture Zhao Shanshan's July season, but now that I don't need to rush anymore, there's no need to record during my off-get off work hours.
After get off work.
Before Li Zhaoyang even got home, he noticed something was wrong outside the residential area.
That figure at the corner outside the community gate... why does it look so familiar?
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that it was Zhao Shanshan, that vicious woman.
What are you doing here?
"Zhaoyang, I was wrong, please forgive me?" Zhao Shanshan said tenderly, about to rush over.
"Get out of here!" Li Zhaoyang showed a disgusted expression, completely baffled as to what this woman was doing here so late at night.
He remembered that Zhao Shanshan didn't live in this upscale neighborhood.
"Your mother went out to sell herself, didn't she?" Zhao Shanshan suddenly blurted out these words out of the blue.
"Hmm?" Li Zhaoyang's face immediately turned cold: "Don't try to disgust me."
"No, no...no." Zhao Shanshan said, and was about to step forward and touch her.
"Fuck your mother." Li Zhaoyang felt disgusted whenever he saw this woman, and then she clung to him like that.
"Ouch... my head..." Zhao Shanshan pretended to bump her head against the wall, covering her left cheek: "Zhaoyang... Waaah... I didn't expect you to be so heartless, you actually hit me."
"What are you doing?" Li Zhaoyang realized something was wrong and hurriedly took out his keys and ran home as fast as he could.
Although he didn't know what this woman was up to, based on his understanding of this wicked woman, tonight was definitely a trap, and he had to get inside as soon as possible.
"Huh? What...you're going to make it impossible for me to make a living in the music industry?"
When Zhao Shanshan's words came, Li Zhaoyang had already entered the residential area. What followed was Zhao Shanshan's self-directed and self-acted performance outside the residential area, where she got up and looked pitiful.
"snort!"
Immediately, a sinister glint flashed across Zhao Shanshan's face. She glanced at the surrounding surveillance cameras, got into the car, and arrived at a certain location: "How was the filming?"
"Sister Shanshan, it's okay! The camera angle is perfect. That 'tainted celebrity' pushed you really hard, slapped you, and even threatened you!" The paparazzi in charge of filming was Qin Yi, the younger brother of Chen Tianyi's female secretary.
"Let's go, it's time to make Li Zhaoyang leave this circle. This is the price he pays for targeting my singing queen!" Zhao Shanshan gritted her teeth with hatred when she thought of the July season champion.
Qin Yi gave a thumbs up: "You really have to admit, public opinion, if used skillfully, can bankrupt a company."
...
Li Zhaoyang, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen, became wary of Zhao Shanshan's intentions this time.
He didn't hold back his good intentions.
It's very likely related to promoting music!
We don't know what their plan is.
Around 8 p.m., Li Zhaoyang received packages of various sizes.
These are the computers, recording studios, and other equipment that I asked Manager Zhang to purchase before.
It was around 10:30 that we finally got all the equipment ready.
Seeing that the study had been transformed into a small recording studio, Li Zhaoyang nodded in satisfaction and began composing the music for "Decent".
Once the lyrics were written, the decent audio file was finally finished around 11 o'clock.
sleep!
...
Early the next morning.
When Li Zhaoyang arrived at the company and clocked in, he thought he was too early, as there were only about ten people in the office area.
"Ms. Wan-ting, is today a holiday? What about the rest of your colleagues?"
Li Zhaoyang spotted Chen Wanting, who had just finished eating breakfast bread.
She pointed upstairs and said, "The bottom-ranked team is sitting on the champion's throne more and more securely. As for Starway's promotion for us, our company's senior management unanimously decided that if Starway didn't make any news within two days, we would put pressure on them. So, everyone else who had songs in stock basically went to find singers to record songs."
“That makes sense.” Li Zhaoyang didn’t hesitate. He first submitted the manuscript to the director for review, and then went to find a singer to record it.
"The director and supervisor have gone out on business." Chen Wanting stood up, patted her hands which were covered in breadcrumbs, and then walked towards her office.
"OK."
Li Zhaoyang originally planned to submit his work to the director first to make it more respectable before choosing a singer.
Since the director and supervisor are not here, let's find someone to record it first.
When they return, it wouldn't be a bad idea to submit the complete, presentable version to the director directly.
Upon arriving at the Artists Department, I discovered that the office environment was quite different from before.
It used to be quiet and peaceful, but now it's bustling with activity, and you can see many colleagues from the composition department.
For example, Huang Weizhou and Chen Zuan were also there.
It seems they also want to release their existing inventory.
"Zhaoyang, you're here too?" The person Chen Zuan had recorded was none other than Hua Nongying.
“Yes,” Li Zhaoyang replied.
"Find someone to record the song?" Huang Weizhou got straight to the point.
“Yes.” Li Zhaoyang replied succinctly.
"Didn't you just release a countdown song a couple of days ago?" Chen Zuan was dumbfounded: "Another new song? What kind of creative speed is this? Even the donkeys in the production team can't keep up with you."
"I was playing games last night and just happened to find some inspiration." Li Zhaoyang couldn't keep up the lie, so he quickly changed the subject: "You guys go to the recording studio first, I'll go find An Lan."
When Hua Nongying heard that Teacher Zhaoyang had come to see An Lan, and thinking of the quality of that song "Countdown," she subconsciously said, "Teacher Zhaoyang, um, Senior Wanting has already made an appointment with Sister An Lan to record two new songs, and she also has to collaborate with Ling'er on an album soon, so she probably won't be able to find the time. How about I record your new song instead?"
She's similar to An Lan; any song that suits An Lan will definitely suit her too.
I missed the countdown, but I can't miss Zhaoyang's new song this time.
Although the probability of Li Zhaoyang creating three high-quality works in a row is very low, what if he does?
Hua Nongying seemed to realize something, and then glanced at Chen Zu'an: "Teacher Zu'an, this should be okay, right?"
Chen Zuan nodded: "Hua Nongying is only recording one song, so we can make time. If Zhaoyang, you're in a hurry to record, we can let you go to the recording studio first, and I can polish it tonight or tomorrow."
“I see…” Li Zhaoyang still intended to use An Lan: “I’ll ask her first.”
From the very beginning, Li Zhaoyang's first choice was always An Lan.
Because he had worked with An Lan before, he knew how strong her singing skills and powerful lungs were, especially her unique voice.
It was understandable that they refused to record the countdown at the time, since they were competing abroad and you couldn't expect them to give up the competition and fly back immediately, could you?
"An Lan, someone is looking for you."
Hua Nongying personally went to help Li Zhaoyang call Zhao Anlan out.
Because she knew that An Lan was indeed unable to free up any time recently.
An Lan was also invited to collaborate with Ling'er on an album, and she also collaborated with Chen Wanting on two new songs.
My schedule is almost completely booked. Unless I can squeeze out some of my planned rest time, but is that even possible?
Supervisor Bian would not allow An Lan to work in such a high-intensity environment.
It puts too much strain on the body.
Who's looking for me?
Zhao Anlan walked out of Ling'er's office. Today she was dressed very casually, with at least six or seven small braids, high-waisted jeans, a simple white t-shirt, and a pair of sneakers.
It looks very energetic overall.
"Li Zhaoyang?"
When Zhao Anlan met the other party, she was a little surprised, especially when she thought that Li Zhaoyang had asked her to record the countdown, which made her feel uneasy.
"Zhaoyang, what's the matter?"
"Are you available? I have a song I'd like to collaborate on with you."
"This... I'm afraid there aren't any left. Wait a minute, let me ask." Zhao Anlan didn't want to refuse Li Zhaoyang, especially since she had missed the opportunity once, she wanted to cooperate with Zhaoyang even more.
He then called his agent to inquire about the upcoming schedule.
"If you record one more song, can you squeeze in the time?"
The agent shook his head: "No, we were already booked to collaborate with Ling'er on an album. We squeezed in two hours of rest time to accept two new songs from senior Wan Ting. If we do another one, we'll have to squeeze in more rest time. With such a high-intensity work environment, you'll collapse from exhaustion."
“It’s okay, we’ll just record one less song.” Chen Wanting’s voice came from outside the corridor as she appeared in low heels: “Nongying and Anlan are the same type. Since Zhaoyang is going to choose Anlan for the new song, then let Nongying do the other one.”
“Okay!” Hua Nongying nodded quickly. For her, Chen Wanting was a better choice than Li Zhaoyang.
After all, her skill level is undeniable; Chen Wanting is the top of the four aces of the Sunset Glow.
Unless Li Zhaoyang's new song can maintain the same high quality as "Xiao Chou" and "Countdown".
"Zhaoyang, when are you going to record? I'll make the arrangements." Zhao Anlan is a top-tier singer, and many of her schedules need to be arranged and cannot be disrupted.
If the previous schedule is disrupted, the rest of the schedule will follow suit.
Li Zhaoyang: "We'll try to start recording today."
"Okay," Zhao Anlan agreed readily.
Just then.
Everyone saw Manager Bian rushing toward the elevator, muttering "Something's happened, something's happened."
"Manager, what's wrong?" one of the artists asked.
Supervisor Bian didn't say anything. He ran outside into the corridor and found that both elevators were occupied, so he had to use the fire escape.
"Are you going to see the director? She's gone out." Chen Wanting's voice came from behind Supervisor Bian.
"What?" Supervisor Bian looked flustered. "The director went out?"
Stopping in his tracks, Manager Bian quickly found a contact labeled "strong woman" in his memo and dialed the number.
The call will be answered after a few seconds of ringing.
"Director, something terrible has happened! The matter of Zhaoyang's stage name has been fully exposed!"
That one sentence startled many people in the artist department's office area.
