I collapsed from the top, and the system just showed up?

Yunhai Media’s Headquarter was quite large.

It occupied an entire building on the banks of the Huangpu River in the magic city.

Reaching the composition department took quite some time, even after having to take an elevator.

A few minutes later.

After descending from the fifty-eighth floor to the seventh floor, the two finally arrived at the composition department.

On that note, in the three years since entering the company, this was his second time here, as per his memories.

The first time was for recording a song.

When the original owner was still a top idol, the company considered having him release a song and enter the music industry.

As long as he opened his mouth, it wouldn’t matter even if he sang poorly; there were auto-tune specialists who could turn even a dog’s voice into a heavenly melody.

However, the original owner was too overestimated by the company. After attempting once and finding that the entire song had been virtually transformed into an electronica, the company reluctantly gave up on the idea of making him a singer.

“This voice… even worse than a dog.”

The company’s auto-tune specialist sighed in private.

Since then, the original owner had never set foot in the composition department again.

But today, he came back.

Not with a proud attitude, but as any ordinary employee would.

“Look how the wheel of fortune have turned, the wisdom of the ancients holds true they did not deceive me.” Wang Mo sighed in frustration.

Who would have thought that the once prestigious top idol of the entertainment industry would one day fall to the point of becoming an ordinary employee in the composition department?

Just as he entered the composition department, all employees inside became restless.

Most of the people looked at Wang Mo with strange expressions.

Whispers.

Complex expressions.

Some even gloated.

In fact, everyone in the industry knew in their hearts that Wang Mo had become a victim to public opinions, but witnessing a former top idol fall to such a state still brought sighs of pity.

Passing through the office area.

Yuan Xiong led Wang Mo to the office of the composition department manager, Liu Zhengwen, and said, “Manager Liu, you should have received the company’s notice, right? I’m handing Wang Mo over to you.”

Liu Zhengwen, who was working, frowned slightly and said indifferently, “Okay.”

In his heart, Liu Zhengwen was extremely unwilling to have Wang Mo in the composition department.

Such a star, who had collapsed from the top, was comparable to a time bomb in their department.

Who knows when he might explode.

By then, he might get into a lot of trouble.

Furthermore, Liu Zhengwen was fully aware that Wang Mo, within the composition department, would undoubtedly be a big shot to be served everything.

Should he really let him try his hand at songwriting?

He had to be talented for that.

Seeing Liu Zhengwen’s attitude, Yuan Xiong’s face changed instantly. The accumulated frustration from last night to today burst out in an instant.

He tightened his face and said coldly, “Manager Liu, others may not know, but shouldn’t you understand? Wang Mo has ended up in this situation because he was smeared and suppressed by competitors. It’s not his fault. Even if you don’t have any sympathy, you should consider the significant contributions he made to the company throughout the years. Couldn’t you at least greet him with a smile?

What’s the matter?

If others lose their utility, can you act high and mighty?”

“He came to your composition department, and you feel wronged? Have you ever thought about how much grief Wang Mo has gone through?”

Liu Zhengwen couldn’t keep his face straight, and looked embarrassed.

He quickly stood up and smiled bitterly, “Okay, okay, I promise to treat him well.”

“Good.”

Yuan Xiong only nodded then.

In Yunhai Media and even the entire industry, Yuan Xiong was well-known to be a top-tier agent. The fact that he could single-handedly bring Wang Mo to the top already proved his ability.

So, Liu Zhengwen, a mere manager of the composition department, did not act pretentiously in front of him.

Seeing Liu Zhengwen yield, Yuan Xiong turned around and smiled at Wang Mo, and said, “You should stay in the composition department for now. I’ll go talk to the company and see if there might be a chance for a comeback.”

As he spoke, there was bitterness in his heart.

Because he knew best that a top star like Wang Mo, once after falling from grace, would have completely lost his reputation. Even if the official media didn’t explicitly blacklist Wang Mo, they wouldn’t need to as the chances of him making a comeback in the entertainment industry were almost zero.

Who would dare to hire Wang Mo?

No one dared!

In other words, without any doubt, in days to come, Wang Mo would only be relegated by the company to the composition department, waiting for the end of contract, without any chance of making a comeback.

Until gradually he is forgotten by people.

Don’t expect the company to actively terminate the contract with Wang Mo; that would be even less likely.

“You…”

Yuan Xiong wanted to comfort Wang Mo a bit more, but in the end, he just patted Wang Mo’s shoulder lightly and walked away.

With heavy steps.

Seeing Yuan Xiong leave, Liu Zhengwen turned to Wang Mo, squeezing out a smile, “Wang Mo, welcome to the composition department. Let me introduce you to some colleagues in the composition department.”

“Okay.”

Wang Mo absentmindedly nodded.

Because at that moment the voice of the system echoed in his mind: 【Congratulations, host, for successfully entering the composition department and completing the novice mission. You have received a bronze treasure chest*1.】

Wang Mo didn’t hesitate and silently said, “Open the bronze treasure chest.”

【Received.】

Then, the system displayed a piece of text: 【According to the host’s current situation, the treasure chest will automatically generate the items most needed by the host… System generation in progress… Generation complete…】

Swoosh~~~

The bronze treasure chest opened with a dazzling golden light effect.

【Congratulations, host, for obtaining the song “It Doesn’t Matter.”】

【Friendly reminder: 1. Lyrics, music scores, arrangements, and other related files for the song have been sent to the host’s email. Please check. 2. Songs obtained by the host through the system will be registered under the host’s name first.】

Such a thoughtful system.

Wang Mo raised an eyebrow.

Not only could it generate the items most needed by him, but it also handled every detail meticulously.

After the pleasant surprise, he looked at the prize he received: “It Doesn’t Matter.”

Kun Ge’s song!

Also, his debut song.

This song was excellent, but ordinary people simply couldn’t handle the song, right?

He definitely couldn’t sing it himself, especially right after falling from grace.

Even if he hadn’t fallen, daring to sing “It Doesn’t Matter” right after an incident would be considered seeking death.

You don’t care?

Fine, then go die!

Of course, even without falling from grace, he couldn’t sing it.

He relied on looks, not talent.

But the system said it was the most suitable prize for him right now.

Was there some kind of reasoning behind it?

After thinking about it for a while but still clueless , he asked, 【System, why did you give me this song?】

System: 【Most suitable.】

Wang Mo: 【Why is this the most suitable?】

System: 【Because it’s the most suitable.】

Why so stubborn?

Wang Mo could now somewhat understand the system’s personality, it was an emotionless lump, and questioning it was completely a waste of time.

Ding!

Then, the system displayed another line of text:

【Detected that the host has opened the treasure chest, triggering a mission.】

【Mission content: Release the first song.】

【Mission requirements: Select a suitable singer and release “It Doesn’t Matter” on any music platform.】

【Mission reward: Bronze treasure chest*2.】

Release a song?

He somewhat understood why the novice mission was to enter the composition department.

But the surprising part was that the reward for the first mission was two bronze treasure chests.

Seems like it won’t be easy.

At first glance, the mission content was simply to release the recently obtained song, which should be quite straightforward.

But actually, it would not be that simple.

Firstly, the song “It Doesn’t Matter” has very demanding requirements for the singer; ordinary people can’t capture Kun Ge’s style at all.

Secondly, in Blue Star, the position of composers is very low. Or rather… composers are essentially just tools.

Actually, on Earth, the status of composers was not considered high either.

Except for a few top-notch composers who had some influence in the industry.

Ordinary composers are not even as good as D-list singers, barely making ends meet.

But compared to Blue Star, composers were considered better off.

Because in Blue Star, the status of composers is quite humble; almost all composers have to consider the singer’s preferences.

From composing to recording and finally releasing the song, composers have no say at all.

They can only follow instructions.

Either write a song according to the singer’s request.

Or write a song and let the singer choose.

Purely a tool, a tool that only knows how to write songs.

To start with, the success of a song depends not only on the singer’s performance but also on the lyrics and composition, both of which are crucial. However, due to the low status of composers, if a song succeeds, it’s the singer’s credit; but if a song fails, the singer will blame the composer, saying the song was poorly written.

So, for Wang Mo to choose a suitable singer and release “It Doesn’t Matter” will be an extremely challenging task.

Because traditionally, it’s the singer who chooses the song, not the composer choosing the singer.

Moreover, who would appreciate the songs he wrote?

Of course, it’s not the time to consider this now.

Regaining his focus, he followed Liu Zhengwen out of the office, preparing to meet his colleagues in the composition department.
