Chapter 42
Starlight Entertainment Composition Department.
Xu Sheng sat in the office with a gloomy face. Chen Xi went to the library to look for inspiration again. Today is May 25th, and he hasn't made any move. Did he listen to my earnest words last time?
After thinking for a while, he stood up, walked out of the office, and coughed lightly.
The composition department employees all looked at Director Xu.
"Everyone's performance at the end of May was very good. Recently, our composition department has released several songs. The efficiency is very high, but while pursuing speed, quality is equally important.
There are trainees recording songs in the recording studio every day. If there is anything you need my help to communicate, please let me know. Let's work hard together for the June charts!"
The composition department was full of jubilation.
The composers employed by the composition department of the entertainment company are basically from junior to senior, and there are very few gold medalists.
Those senior composers have gone out to work on their own, making a fortune by selling songs, and getting an equal share after the songs are released, maximizing the profits.
The songs written by the composition department of the entertainment company itself are basically used to train new singers, and then buy songs from the big names outside when the singers become famous. For someone like Chen Xi, who reached the peak as soon as he debuted and whose songs can be sung by the queen of pop, it is a rare opportunity in twenty years!
After delivering his speech, Xu Sheng walked towards the publicity department to talk to Director He. When he arrived at the entrance of the publicity department, he pushed open the door and walked in.
He Nanting was planning the chart-topping plan for June in front of the computer, and the end of May was the critical period.
Hearing the noise, Director He looked up at Xu Sheng who pushed the door in,
"Old Xu, your composition department has been very productive recently, but the quality needs to be improved."
Xu Sheng was also helpless,"Old He, I think you have been spoiled by Chen Xi. Do you think everyone in the composition department is Chen Xi?"
Chen Xi had long been in He Nanting's plan, but he also made other preparations.
《The score of"Boundless Oceans and Vast Skies" is right in front of you, don't worry, just wait for Huang Jun first. Last Sunday, Chen Xi promised Ning Jing the song, but I don't know how it went?
"Old Xu, didn't Chen Xi tell me how his song was?"
Xu Sheng smiled bitterly.
"Chen Xi has been looking for inspiration in the library these two days. You know about this, so I can't rush him."
He Nanting nodded.
"Well, don't push him. He has written four songs from mid-May to now. The results of the first three are there. We have also watched"Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies". We should be content."
When Xu Sheng thought of"Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies", his eyes were filled with memories and longings.
"Yes, if I ask again, it will show that I, an old man, have no way of behaving myself."
If he really can't write it, should I blame him besides comforting him? It's better not to put too much pressure on him.
He Nanting thought about it. With Chen Xi's character, he doesn't seem like a boastful person. He said that he prepared the song in June, so he should be prepared.
But as the leader of the company, he can't put all his hopes on one person. He has already contacted the composition studio outside. Su Linger must strike while the iron is hot. The song must be bought! He also made preparations to buy the song for Ning Jing. With Ning Jing's character, even if Chen Xi can't deliver in June, she won't say anything.
After thinking through these things, He Nanting looked at Xu Sheng in front of him.
"Lao Xu, have you paid attention to the data today?"
"Of course."
Director Xu opened his mouth and said
"《"The Lone Warrior" has 790 million, and"Ten Years in the Human World" has 430 million. Now the momentum of"The Lone Warrior" has slowed down, while"Ten Years in the Human World" is still in its development stage."
Chasing Dreams" on the Rookie List was directly ignored by Xu Sheng!
Director He has also been paying attention to the data. One song is at the top of the Rookie List, and the other two are firmly in the top two of the Storm List. What an honor, I shouldn't ask for more.
"Lao Xu, let's take care of our own business first. Lao Qin has been out recently. If you have any songs, just ask them to go to the artist department to select people. Don't put pressure on Chen Xi."
"This is the only way."
After Director Xu finished speaking, he left the publicity department sadly. He was already worried, and now he was under a lot of pressure!
Seeing Director Xu leaving, Director He picked up the phone on the desk, looked through the address book, and dialed Huang Jun's agent.
"When will Huang Jun finish his work?"
"Mr. He, you can return to the company the day after tomorrow"
"The day after tomorrow? The 27th, OK!"
After hanging up the phone in a hurry, he made an appointment with Director Yang in the recording studio to make time the day after tomorrow or Monday, and then see when Chen Xi is free.
The recording studio was already busy to the point of collapse, and when Director Yang heard that Chen Xi was going to record a song in two days, he immediately became very motivated!
"Chen Xi, Gala, you have caused chaos in the music composition world!"
……
Recently, the news about Gala has cooled down. Netizens are tired of it and are too lazy to read it. The media stopped writing about it when they saw that they couldn't make money. Smart people have long discovered that Lu Feng is not Gala.
Entertainment companies are busy recording songs and preparing for the charts in June. Composition studios are also negotiating the sale of lyrics and music, trying to sell their hard work for a good price!
More importantly, the news that Tianyu Entertainment boss Wu Tian was caught soliciting prostitution has become a hot topic! The media has a new hot spot.
Wu Tian's black material has also cast a shadow on the festive entertainment industry. Those celebrities with guilty consciences have posted on Weibo to denounce him, and the criticism is so indignant!
Who is Gala? It's still a mystery!
……
Magic City Library.
The sun was bright and clear, clearing away all the haze.
Chen Xi stretched and closed the book in front of him,"Heroes of the Three Kingdoms", and carefully memorized the chapters.
Chapter 69: The fierce Zhang Fei cleverly captured the Wakou Pass, and the old Huang Zhong used a trick to capture the Tiandang Mountain!
It feels so good to be able to revisit ancient books. Although there are slight differences, it's almost the same. Just treat it as a game of finding differences!
Wei, Shu and Wu were divided into three parts, and the Jin Dynasty ruled the world!
Chen Xi thought about what to do now?
《"Chi Ling" has been written, and I can record it when Ning Jing comes back. Now all I need is Su Ling'er's song. If that doesn't work, I'll just choose a song with less bass.
"Buzz buzz buzz."
The phone vibrated. It was an unfamiliar number!
"Hello, hello!"
A female voice with a slightly nasal tone
"Hello, is this Chen Xi?"
"Yes, I am Chen Xi"
"I'm Su Ling'er's friend. She asked me to get the key from you."
……
Half an hour later, a taxi stopped at the Magic City Library.
A stylishly dressed beauty wearing sunglasses got out of the car, looked around, and saw Chen Xi standing at the entrance of the library.
Black pants, light-colored short shirt, and a backpack. After confirming that it was the person she was looking for, she quickly stepped forward and took off her sunglasses.
"Hello, is this Chen Xi? I’m Deng Qiqi!"
