Chapter 395: Chapter 374: The Color Change of the Fish_1
Just overnight, “White Rose” swept across the internet.
The popularity of this song even rekindled interest in the Mandarin version of “Red Rose,” resulting in a significant increase in song downloads.
The next day.
This song had effortlessly become the champion.
After all, with three of its same-period competitors absent, there were no rivals for the song.
Instead, the second place became a position that countless singers from the same period fought over.
In this process, no one had any thoughts about the first place.
That was the forbidden realm marked by Xian Yu.
Meanwhile.
Backstage in the dressing room of a certain event.
Zhao Ying Ge, while putting on headphones to listen to a song and looking down at the lyrics, was playing “White Rose”.
From the first time she listened to it before going to bed last night to the single-track loop after she left in the morning, Zhao Ying Ge had listened to this song many times over.
“So that’s how it is.”
This time, during what she didn’t know was her umpteenth loop of the song, Zhao Ying Ge suddenly murmured, “He doesn’t need to particularly collaborate with anyone because as long as he’s willing, there’s no singer he can’t make famous.”
“Many people in the company say this.”
The assistant beside her chimed in. Recently, several departments of composers had been discussing this, but seeing Zhao Ying Ge’s changing complexion, she quickly shut her mouth.
“I see.”
Zhao Ying Ge chuckled bitterly, “I purposely collaborated with the 10th floor, intending to become a top-tier player in his eyes as quickly as possible, to show him my abilities. However, it seems like he doesn’t need to care about these things at all. It doesn’t matter who he chooses, including Sun Yaohuo, who many in the industry joke can’t be made famous, he can easily lead them through the gates of stardom.”
The assistant chuckled with her.
The assistant now understood what Zhao Ying Ge was upset about.
It was nothing more than the sense of loss, feeling that her much valued top-tier status might not be all that impressive in the eyes of Maestro Junior.
Half the reason why Zhao Ying Ge worked so hard was to prove that Xian Yu’s decision not to collaborate with her was wrong.
But the fact turned out to be that for Xian Yu, it didn’t matter who he chose, he could make them reach the top.
Bringing Sun Yaohuo, a singer acknowledged as impossible to make famous, into the top ranks, even more so showed his extraordinary ability.
“I even feel that Xian Yu is my ‘White Rose’.”
Zhao Ying Ge shook her head.
Just as the lyrics wrote:
How can you be cold yet still so beautiful, what you can’t get is always precious.
How not to resort to tricks when at a disadvantage, showing reverence, testing your rules…
These sentences were incredibly like wanting to attract the attention of Xian Yu, while he probably doesn’t even remember that such a person exists.
The assistant didn’t say anything.
There were actually quite a few outstanding women in Starlight Entertainment who wanted to attract Xian Yu’s attention, but it seemed like no one had succeeded yet.
Most of them, like Zhao Ying Ge, were all secretly in love with Xian Yu.
A few days ago, the assistant heard a rumour that Xian Yu’s third apprentice, the company’s little princess Li Lizhi, even helped Xian Yu back to his office from the cafeteria.
Regardless of any teacher-student relationship, this wasn’t ancient society after all.
In many people’s eyes, Li Lizhi probably had certain special feelings for Xian Yu. She was just using the name of a student to get close to the water first due to her advantageous position.
…
Sun Yaohuo finally became a top-tier singer!
Xian Yu’s apprentice wrote songs for Sun Yaohuo for several consecutive months, laying a solid foundation.
The three blockbuster songs that Xian Yu finally provided directly made Sun Yaohuo a top-tier singer, which could be described as a rapid rise.
Even many Qi people became die-hard fans of Sun Yaohuo.
With Sun Yaohuo becoming top-tier, various notices and endorsements came rushing in, and Sun Yaohuo reached the peak of his life.
Because he was the first top-tier singer brought out by Xian Yu, he naturally received massive attention from entertainment media.
With his rapidly rising singing career, Sun Yaohuo was rarely so busy that he had to work around the clock.
Meanwhile, inside Starlight Company.
Lin Yuan was playing with his race car robot when suddenly a knock sounded at the door.
“Please come in.”
“I’ve brought you some good tea.”
It was Ol’ Zhou’s smiling face at the door.
It had been a while since Ol’ Zhou had come to visit Lin Yuan, but he still exuded a warm familiarity.
He sat down on the sofa opposite Lin Yuan, let his assistant Gu Dong open the tea he’d brought, and said to Lin Yuan:
“Today ‘Hachiko’ completed its filming. You are the scriptwriter, didn’t you go to see?”
Lin Yuan said: “I went there this morning.”
Indeed, the filming of ‘Hachiko’ officially ended at noon today.
The shooting took a little over three months.
The original shooting time was supposed to be longer, but Lin Yuan, with his ‘Druid’ ability, made clear arrangements for the dogs, which were the most unpredictable part of filming.
Under such circumstances, the filming progress couldn’t possibly be slow.
“I see.”
Ol’ Zhou coughed, “I came here on behalf of someone, and I wanted to ask you something.”
“What is it?”
“Will you be releasing a new song in November?”
“November?”
Lin Yuan thought for a while and said, “I’ll be off in November.”
Upon hearing his words, Ol’ Zhou laughed, “With your assurance, those guys should be relieved.”
He received several calls this morning, all from friends in the industry, including a few big shots in the music scene.
They called Ol’ Zhou with one purpose:
To find out if Xian Yu was planning to release a song in November.
Ol’ Zhou, having been in and out of the industry for many years, of course understood why these people cared so much about whether Xian Yu would release a song in November.
Many people were terrified of “Fish”.
Cause when Xian Yu released a song in October, three top singers were scared away.
If Xian Yu’s going to release a song in November, are the other top singers going to confront Xian Yu head on?
Or are they going to follow the example of the “brave three brothers” in October and do whatever they want?
Hence hearing Lin Yuan say he wouldn’t release a song in November, Ol’ Zhou made such a comment.
Seeing Lin Yuan was somewhat puzzled, Ol’ Zhou took the initiative to explain: “Mainly because everyone wants to avoid you. If you’re releasing a song in November, it’s better to get them prepared in advance. Of course, they would have to express their gratitude later.”
Actually, this was also an unwritten rule in the industry.
If there were no grudges between companies, top singers would usually announce beforehand when they were releasing new songs so that they could avoid unnecessary competition.
“Then I won’t release it.”
Lin Yuan gave a solid response.
His sister could give way to her classmates once, so he could do the same to his peers at least once.
More, Lin Yuan had already planned to take a break in November. His task was half completed anyway as Sun Yaohuo has already made it to the top tier.
The next task would be to lift Jiang Kui to the top tier as well.
As Wu Yong said, Jiang Kui only needed two more songs to reach the top tier, and of course, they had to be of high quality.
But Wu Yong also said, if Lin Yuan couldn’t keep up with the creative speed, one song could also work. The prerequisite for this was a good result in the end-of-year ‘Battle of Gods’ for Jiang Kui.
At least in the top three!
Therefore, Lin Yuan planned to rest in November and arrange a great song for Jiang Kui in ‘Battle of Gods’ in December, so that Jiang Kui could easily secure a position in the top three.
He’d been releasing songs frequently lately, which was a bit too high-profile.
Lin Yuan, when releasing works, always paid attention to the frequency, although his current speed was much faster than when he first debuted.
As for not mentioning securing the championship spot in ‘Battle of Gods’, it was because Lin Yuan didn’t know whether Maestro might have a stroke of inspiration and write a god-level song or something.
He was always a stable person.
But there was a voice inside him resounding quite assertively, a statement targeting the ‘Battle of Gods’ in December:
“One Piece, I am coming for you!”
