Forcing Me to Be a Godly Tycoon, Right?-Chapter 872 - 359: With the Four of Them in the Office...

Chapter 872: Chapter 359: With the Four of Them in the Office...

Zhang Jingdong was completely caught off guard when Huo Chengcheng said that, thinking to himself, did my serious work mode just charm her?

He then teased, "You listen to everything I tell you to do? Huo Chengcheng classmate, you said it, so you better stick to it, okay?"

Huo Chengcheng noticed the playful smile at the corner of Zhang Jingdong’s mouth. She originally thought Zhang Jingdong was still in work mode, but to her surprise, he could switch from company boss to rascal in an instant.

She felt a bit embarrassed and annoyed, "What nonsense are you thinking? This is at work... I was talking about work!"

Zhang Jingdong innocently waved his hand, "How am I thinking nonsense? I was talking about work too!"

"Huo Chengcheng classmate, what do you think I’m talking about?"

"I..."

Huo Chengcheng realized she was being tricked by Zhang Jingdong, but she had no way to respond, so she could only say angrily and shyly, "You... you’re just so annoying!"

Zhang Jingdong looked at her pouty yet irresistibly charming face and was thoroughly amused. He then said, "I suddenly had an idea while we were eating earlier."

Xiao Fei saw the look in Zhang Jingdong’s eyes and knew he had another good idea, so she eagerly asked, "What idea?"

"I want to compose a simple opera song and have you collaborate with their group. First, to help you expand your song styles, and secondly, to use your fame to help them get recognized."

"That’s great, no problem!"

Seeing Xiao Fei agree so readily, Zhang Jingdong then turned to Bai Shan’s group, "What do you all think?"

Bai Shan hesitated for a moment and said, "I’m afraid... Feifei is so popular now, and her singing skill is at a very high level. I’m afraid we can’t keep up with her."

Zhang Jingdong shook his head with a smile, "Don’t worry. This song is an initial version of an opera song. The pop song section will be sung in a pop manner, and the opera section will be sung in an opera manner."

"Xiao Fei will handle the pop section, and you three will handle the opera section."

Seeing Bai Shan still a bit unsure, Zhang Jingdong continued, "Okay, if you’re still worried, I’ll sing this song for you right now, and then you’ll have a clearer idea!"

Saying that, he stood up, "This song is called ’Longing’, inspired by ’Peony Pavilion’. Listen carefully..."

Zhang Jingdong cleared his throat slightly and then began singing directly:

The spring rain awakens the buds

Pass the message to her with the wind

The wind chimes under the eaves gently sway the strings of my heart

The twilight shatters on the ground with no one to answer

...

Reaching the opera section, Zhang Jingdong gestured to Bai Shan, "This is your part, Shanshan..."

How beautiful the spring is

Saw her strolling under the brook bridge

She gently picked a peach blossom

The whole garden blooms beautifully like the clouds

Brewing the fragrance into new tea

As he sang this part, Zhang Jingdong suddenly moved to Huo Chengcheng’s side, "Next is your part..."

I sketch her in the moonlight

Please let go of the distant longing

On the rice paper, it turns into a poetic painting

Tears silently render the elegance in words

Then Zhang Jingdong turned and ruffled Liu Zihan’s hair, "Next is your part, the real recitation from ’Peony Pavilion’."

It turns out all the flowers bloom

Seemingly all for the ruined wells and walls

Those moments of beauty, why are they fleeting

Who in the world enjoys these pleasures

When Zhang Jingdong finished singing the main part, Xiao Fei and the others were once again deeply touched by Zhang Jingdong’s unparalleled talent!

At this moment, they really wanted to know what this man’s brain was made of, and why he could come up with such beautiful and melodious songs so effortlessly and spontaneously.

Huo Chengcheng, by now, had completely forgotten about being upset with Zhang Jingdong earlier.

There’s no help for it. When a man’s talent reaches a certain level, he can really do whatever he wants, conquering all obstacles. Even if he truly makes a woman angry, he can brighten her mood again within a song.

Not long after Zhang Jingdong finished singing, Xiao Fei and the others all burst into applause, repeatedly praising him.

Xiao Fei: "Boss, you’ve never let me down when it comes to songwriting, and once again, you have amazed me thoroughly!"

"Tsk tsk, it’s simply too beautiful!"

Bai Shan: "Boss, I never fully understood the meaning of ’overflowing with talent’ before, but now I think you’ve fully embodied that term. You are the epitome of prodigious talent!"

Huo Chengcheng: "Even though you’re so bad and fickle, your talent truly is unparalleled. It’s simply too unfair of the heavens!"

Liu Zihan: "Boss, to be honest, my favorite male celebrity before was Li Ming, but from today on, you are my only idol!"

Receiving such praise, Zhang Jingdong said meaningfully, "Do you all really like this song?"

Xiao Fei immediately nodded, "Of course, and just based on the melody and style, I believe it will definitely be a hit."

Bai Shan: "I’m not sure if this song will be a hit, since I don’t understand the market, but I think, first, it’s very beautiful to listen to, and secondly, it’s more layered compared to ’Yu Xi Tan’. Also, the contrast between the pop and opera singing styles is even more striking."

"Besides, this song’s style is somewhat similar to Feifei’s ’One Mountain Road’. Given Feifei’s huge popularity right now, I believe its performance should not be bad."

Zhang Jingdong said enthusiastically, "Good, since all of you think this song works, let’s record it tomorrow and release it as a single to see market feedback and also to prepare for your future album."
