Chapter 226: Chapter 211: The King of Singing’s Approvali

Translator: 549690339

“Producer, your song was truly extraordinary! Not only did it secure Starlight’s ‘first place’ for the season, but it also showcased your talents to everyone in the Qin Qi territory. I was too foolish, I didn’t even notice that a pop song of yours was filled with so many cultural insights and deep meanings…”

Wu Yong couldn’t stop praising.

Sitting in the producer’s office, Lin Yuan had no idea what song Wu Yong was talking about. Could it be “Change Yourself”? Isn’t that just an ordinary pop song? After all, there’s no shortage of rhythm and blues in this world, why was he making such a fuss?

“Zhang Qi really is everyone’s favorite!”

Wu Yong found Zhang Qi’s music critique and started to read it out loud, his tone full of infectious enthusiasm, seemingly sharing the glory. It was only until then that Lin Yuan understood the meaning of Wu Yong’s words. After slightly hesitating, he asked, “Is Zhang Qi a Chinese language teacher at a school?”

Wu Yong: “???”

Lin Yuan shook his head and said, “People like him must have been the representative for Chinese language class from childhood. They must get full marks on each of their essays. Maybe it was him who made the topic of ‘Life Like A Summer Flower’ for my last exam.”

Wu Yong softly asked, “So what you’re saying is, Zhang Qi’s music critique doesn’t go deep enough? Is there an even deeper meaning behind the song that you can help me understand?”

“It’s fine.”

Lin Yuan didn’t bother explaining further.

As the saying goes, to a thousand readers, there are a thousand Hamlets. Interpretations are up to the individual. In the same vein, to a thousand listeners, there are a thousand ways to interpret “Change Yourself.” Listen with your own understanding, feel with your heart.

It’s totally acceptable.

Lin Yuan was in a good mood because “Change Yourself” had blown up in downloads. It was the first time one of his songs had been downloaded several million times on the first day of its release, converting into a sizeable sum when broken down into shares!

However, speaking of which…

Collaborating with Chen Zhiyu was indeed a loss. He could have obtained 15% more if it were Senior Yao Huo. In the future, he’d try to avoid collaborating with top-tier singers as they tend to be the tools with the worst cost-effectiveness.

At that moment.

It wasn’t just Wu Yong who was utterly in awe of Lin Yuan- the entire Starlight company, including all floors of composers, were greatly discussing the song performed by Chen Zhiyu:

“That’s incredible!”

“Maestro Junior is super powerful!”

“Starlight has been in the limelight this time!” freeweɓnovel.cѳm

“I initially thought that we would need Maestro himself to secure a first place but who knew that our little Maestro Junior could take care of it so easily! No wonder the company let Xian Yu do the movies, is it too much for such a gem to want to do a movie?”

“It’s not excessive at all!”

“Just losing some money.”

“Compared to Xian Yu’s importance to the company and his past contributions, even if he wanted to make a movie costing tens of millions, the company would have no choice but to grit its teeth and approve. Treat making movies as an entertainment project for Xian Yu.”

“It was indeed Maestro Junior.”

“Solely based on the ability to write lyrics, I feel Xian Yu is even better than Maestro. Maestro’s songs occasionally need others to write lyrics, but all of Xian Yu’s songs are wholly written by himself and fit the melody perfectly every time.”

Although different departments have competition, Starlight is a big collective. Whenever Xian Yu was in the limelight, it was also a time for the entire company to shine. All the songwriters in the company are quite proud of their company’s position in the industry proven this time!

Zhao Jue never thought it was possible to turn the tide under such circumstances. Even though she was confident after inviting Lin Yuan to write a song, Fei Yang’s appearance entirely disrupted her plan. Who could have known that even Fei Yang wasn’t a match for Xian Yu?

“Haha.”

Zhao Jue’s assistant looked at his mobile phone and laughed, “Ms. Zhao, you wouldn’t know, but now virtually all the top-tier singers in the company are making a fuss, saying they want to invite Xian Yu for songs. Since it’s challenging to get Maestro, this Maestro Junior has become everyone’s target.”

“Don’t pay any mind.”

Zhao Jue sullenly said, “It took Xian Yu a long time to write this new song. He can’t just jump into writing a new one so soon. If anyone wants to ask Xian Yu to write a song for them, they should inform me first. Without my consent, they are not allowed to bother Xian Yu.”

“Alright.”

The assistant nodded.

Zhao Jue continued, “The maestros are of strategic significance, and so is Xian Yu now. Unless he takes the initiative to propose a collaboration with a singer, his skills should be used where they are needed. The process of Blue Star’s integration has just begun, there are plenty of areas that require a composer’s input.”

Speaking of this,

Zhao Jue suddenly laughed, “Dazzling Entertainment must be going blind now. Sending out a superstar didn’t manage to secure the first spot. Although this can’t be blamed on Fei Yang, the task was not completed smoothly. Our old competitor must be quite upset.”

Assistant:

Zhao Jue’s judgment was correct.

Dazzling Entertainment was already dumbfounded. The situation had reversed within a day, giving no reaction time. Not only was the Chief Manager of the company cursing and swearing, even Fei Yang himself was stunned.

“This is not your fault.”

Fei Yang’s manager reassured him.

Fei Yang shook his head with a bitter smile, “I don’t need the decoration of ranking first. Who said that the King of Singing must always come first? I’m just wondering if there’s a chance to cooperate with Xian Yu. He would probably become one of the maestros in the future.”

“It is difficult through normal channels.”

The manager hesitated for a while before saying, “Unless there is an official promotional project for cooperation, considering Xian Yu’s abilities and his performance this time, the higher-ups will notice him. Perhaps we can strive for that opportunity then?”

Fei Yang nodded.

He suddenly said, “Starlight has several old friends, all striving to be the King of Singing. They are probably more eager than me to collaborate with Xian Yu. Besides the maestros, Xian Yu is their best choice.”

“That won’t be easy.”

His manager chuckled, “The honor of the King of Singing is basically monopolized by the existing kings. For a big-name singer to claim the title, the popularity of one or two songs is obviously not enough. Xian Yu couldn’t possibly single-handedly make a new King of Singing.”

There is a music festival held every year.

A new King of Singing is crowned every year.

Logically, with the annual music festival, Blue Star should have plenty of Kings of Singing. However, this isn’t the case. King of Singing isn’t a status, it’s an honor that can repeatedly be given

What happens more often is:

The honor of the King of Singing ends up being taken by a singer who’s already been named King of Singing. That’s why it’s such a prestigious title. Once a singer becomes a King of Singing, he can still compete for it the next year. So, if a singer desires the title, he has to surpass the current Kings of Singing! That’s exceedingly difficult!

It’s as if a decent actor on Earth wants to compete for the best actor award with titans like Tony Leung and Zhou Runfa. The one who previously won an award can win it again next year. To seize the award, a non-award-winning actor must surpass the other nominated actors!

Fei Yang nodded.

Regardless, this time, he would remember Xian Yu very clearly.

He had a hunch that Xian Yu would be a significant character in the music scene!

As a matter of fact…

Xian Yu is already heading in that direction. With his continuous victories in the seasonal chart, the nickname “Maestro Junior” is no longer limited to the internal circulation within Starlight.
