The longed-for village system

Chapter 249 New Song
Hearing Zhao Xiaogu's words, Chen Qing nodded. He wouldn't give songs to someone just because they were a superstar, unless they knew each other or were recommended by good friends. In that case, he would write a suitable song for them.

Just as Chen Qing finished writing "The Distance of Longing," Teacher He opened the car door and got in, asking the two people in the back seat, "What are you two young couple talking about?"

"We didn't talk much. Teacher He promised to write this song for you. Take a look and see if you're satisfied." Chen Qing said, handing the white paper in her hand to Teacher He in the seat in front of her.

"You're really going to write it for me? Then I'll really take a good look." After saying that, Teacher He began to read it seriously, his eyes becoming brighter and brighter as he read. "Great, Xiao Chen, you truly are a prodigy!"

"Teacher He, are you praising me?" Chen Qing asked, speechless.

Teacher He laughed at Chen Qing's speechlessness, "Of course! Now, 'monster' is a compliment, and not just anyone can be called a monster."

"This song, 'The Distance of Longing,' is very well written. I like it very much. Thank you, Xiao Chen."

"Teacher He, no need for formalities, let's hurry up and take us out for a big meal! Xiao Gu and I have other things to do after dinner!"

"Okay, fasten your seatbelts, we're off."

Teacher He and Zhao Xiaogu have known each other for quite some time and he knows Zhao Xiaogu's favorite flavors, so he booked a high-end buffet restaurant with a full range of barbecue meats and seafood, including Australian lobster and king crab.

Seeing the ingredients in front of her, Zhao Xiaogu's appetite was whetted. After receiving Chen Qing's approval, she immediately took the ingredients and put them on the table, where she ate them with great relish.

Seeing his wife enjoying a rare hearty appetite, Chen Qing took the initiative to add food to her plate, his eyes full of tenderness.

"Xiao Gu, how long have you been holding back! Anyone who didn't know would think that Xiao Chen was abusing you and not letting you eat!" Teacher He was also very surprised by the speed at which Zhao Xiao Gu ate.

“Teacher He, you don’t understand. Sister Chen is too strict. She says that the food I want to eat is not nutritious or that I can’t eat it. The only time I can eat a little is when Brother Chen secretly buys it for me. You know, Brother Chen’s medical skills are so amazing, why would I worry about him?”

Speaking of this, Zhao Xiaogu felt a pang of sadness. Sometimes she really wanted to tell Sister Chen about Brother Chen's medical skills, but she was afraid that the news would be leaked and affect her husband's leisurely life.

Teacher He could only smile and comfort Zhao Xiaogu in response to her complaints, saying, "Sister Chen is only doing this for your own good. You are pregnant now, so you definitely need to be careful in all aspects. Although there won't be any accidents with Xiao Chen around, it's always good to be careful."

Zhao Xiaogu nodded. She naturally understood this principle, so she and her husband were quite grateful to Sister Chen. A responsible nanny like her is hard to find in today's society. Many nannies just want to avoid being fired without making any mistakes.

"Eat as much as you want today, until you can't eat anymore, and leave the rest to me."

"Mmm! Thank you, Brother Chen! I feel relieved with you here."

Teacher He looked helplessly at the couple who started showing off their affection again. He picked up a big piece of lobster meat and stuffed it into his mouth. "Having a wife is nothing special! They're all showing off their love in front of me."

Wishing you two two children in three years, let's see if you'll still be showing off your love then. After the three of them finished their meal, He Jiong left directly in his manager's car because he had other plans. Chen Qing and Zhao Xiaogu drove to the center of the Xiangjiang River to see the night view of Orange Isle. They regretted not being able to see it last time they came to Changsha because they were in too much of a hurry. This time, they had to see everything.

As it is a 4A-level scenic spot, there is a constant stream of people even at night. The appearance of the two did not attract the attention of other tourists around them. Zhao Xiaogu also wisely did not post the photos immediately after taking them, so the two of them had a very enjoyable trip.

It was already past midnight when the two returned to the hotel. After washing up, Zhao Xiaogu looked tired and then snuggled into Chen Qing's arms and fell asleep happily.

After having breakfast and saying goodbye to Teacher He and Xie Na, the two took a car to the airport. They were flying to Beijing today, and Chen Qing had to rehearse tonight before the performance the day after tomorrow. The fact that they could go so late was a big concession from the production team.

Teacher He knew that Chen Qing was going to participate in the National Day Gala, so he didn't try to stop her. Na Ying said that she would definitely treat the two of them to a good meal next time they came, since she owed Chen Qing a favor this time.

At 3 p.m., the two arrived at Beijing Capital International Airport and then took a car directly to the star-rated hotel arranged by the production team. After settling in, Chen Qing went directly to the Great Hall of the People to greet the director and hand over the music to them.

This time, Chen Qing sang another patriotic song, but this time the style of the song was more pop.

"Director Chen, it's been a long time."

"Xiao Chen, you're finally here! I was about to send someone to invite you." Chen Yimou stood up to greet Chen Qing, then got straight to the point, "You said on the phone that you've finished writing the new song, right? Let me take a look!"

Time was tight, so Chen Qing didn't waste any words and directly took out the sheet music and handed it to Chen Yimou, saying, "Director Chen, you can take a look and see if this song is suitable."

"Little Chen, you're amazing! You've released another patriotic song so quickly." Chen Yimou exclaimed in amazement at Chen Qingde's creative talent. After reading the lyrics, he nodded with satisfaction. "Not bad, the lyrics are very well written. I'm all set. Take the melody over to the music director for a check! Let's try to rehearse it once or twice tonight."

The music director also knew how much Chen Yimou valued Chen Qing, and was even more aware of Chen Qing's status. Although Chen Qing may seem unimportant in the entertainment industry now, his influence and connections are far beyond what Chen Yimou could match.

Of course, the most important thing is that he recognizes Chen Qing's musical composition ability. Having been in the industry for so long, he thinks he has met many musical talents, but he has never met someone as unpredictable as Chen Qing.

"Has Teacher Chen written a new song? Let me see it!"

"Hello Director Li, these are the songs I prepared for this gala. Please take a look and see if you want to make any changes."

Compared to Chen Yimou, Director Li's appreciation ability was naturally better. He looked at the lyrics, hummed the tune, and nodded from time to time, "Not bad, really not bad, another classic red song. Teacher Chen is amazing!"

"I won't go into the music and lyrics; compared to your talent, I won't presume to teach you. Mr. Chen, just tell me what you're thinking! Our whole band will work together to complete this song."

Chen Qing definitely wouldn't have any special ideas, and even if he did, he wouldn't bring them up. With time so tight, he'd naturally do whatever was simple. Ideally, he'd just stand there, sing a song, and then leave. However, he did have a few small requests or suggestions regarding the band and background coordination.
