"la la la la la la la"
"La la la la la la la..."
Gradually, the song slowly came to an end with Zhang Jingying's soft singing.
Even though the song has long since faded away.
The people in the editing room were still reeling from the song they had just heard.
"Director...who sings this song?"
After a long pause, the silence was broken by a question from Zhang Kun, the lead actor who is also a singer.
The familiar yet unfamiliar singing style left him unable to confirm it for a moment.
Who exactly is this big name in the music industry?
"Zhang Jingying".
Director Chen Jia slowly announced the name of a female singer that was both familiar and unexpected to Zhang Kun.
"But the lyrics and music were written by Wang Yueheng."
"Furthermore, Ms. Zhang Jingying sent a special message saying that she recorded this song under the personal guidance of Wang Yueheng."
Then, Du Ninghan, the music director who was also in the editing room, added.
“Wang Yueheng…isn’t he in Hong Kong Island? I just saw on the news that he was attacked by foreign paparazzi…”
Zhang Kun asked in surprise.
"That's right, he was indeed in Hong Kong Island. He guided Zhang Jingying through the recording of this song via video call."
"It's fortunate that he went to Hong Kong Island, otherwise we probably wouldn't have heard Zhang Jingying sing this song!"
Director Chen Jia, who had just come back to his senses from the song, spoke with relief.
There is no denying that Wang Yueheng has amazing singing skills.
But compared to that, he still prefers the female version of the song "Painting Heart".
"Director, if we use this song as the theme song..."
"I think we might need to reshoot some scenes."
"I guarantee it will be a level above the original in quality and even more moving to the audience!"
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Hui from the editing room took the initiative to suggest to director Chen Jia.
Logically speaking, this is not something the editor should be able to decide.
But Xiao Hui, also a well-known editor in the industry, couldn't bear to let such a good story about the movie rot away in his mind.
"That's right, we definitely need to reshoot some scenes!"
"The original ending about slaying demons and monsters was too cliché and didn't do justice to such a great song by Wang Yueheng and Zhang Jingying!"
To editor Xiao Hui's surprise, director Chen Jia did not reject his idea.
Instead, he responded with a confident tone.
"You mean...bring the actors back and reshoot?"
Zhang Kun, the lead actor who thought he only needed to re-record his lines, asked in surprise.
"Yes, no matter how difficult it is, we have to reshoot!"
"For the sake of the quality of this film, all sacrifices are worthwhile!"
Director Chen Jia's gaze swept across the song title "Painting Heart" on the screen.
Just like Xiao Wei in the movie who voluntarily gave up the elixir, she made up her mind and said.
"Alright... Whatever decision you make, I'll cooperate! As long as this movie achieves better results!"
Seeing this, lead actor Zhang Kun seemed to be inspired by director Chen Jia's determination and immediately made a promise.
"Lingling~"
Just then, director Chen Jia's phone rang again.
Upon picking it up, I saw that it was another actress from the film, Zhao Li, calling.
"Director, have you heard the theme song sung by Zhang Jingying?"
"I just received an email from Wang Yueheng with a song, and I think this song is perfect as the theme song!"
"If you haven't listened to it yet, I suggest you take some time to listen to it; it's a really great song!"
