The longed-for village system

Chapter 33 A Toast to Xiao Chen

"Xiao Chen, you are really amazing. I have been a host for so many years and I have met a lot of creators and top musicians, but there are few with your talent and ability. Once this song is released, you will definitely receive a lot of invitations from singers."

Teacher He was also very impressed with Chen Qing. This landlord was a true amateur guest, yet he had such amazing talent and ability.

He hadn't even become familiar with the system yet. He wondered what level he could reach after some further learning. He was very much looking forward to it.

"When you release an album, I definitely want to buy a few copies."

Zhao Xiaogu's expression is very direct; if these songs were released as an album or as a digital music streaming service, she would definitely buy them because they are really very good.

"Me too."

"I will definitely buy it too."

My sister and Pengpeng also expressed their support, saying it was such a pity to only be able to hear such a beautiful song once, and it was even more regrettable for those who didn't hear it.

"What's the name of this song? If possible, could you send me a copy after you record it? Or if it's for sale, I'd like to buy it."

Liu Shishi was deeply moved. This was the kind of life she longed for and the kind of love she dreamed of. She never expected that this ordinary-looking young man would write and sing it.

Is it good? That's beyond doubt. This man's singing skills and voice are no worse than those superstars. In fact, as a creator, he has a more sensitive and precise control over the emotions in the songs. He can be described as a genius.

"If I have the chance to record 'If There Is an Afterlife' in the future, I can send it to you if you still like it."

Chen Qing couldn't guarantee the timeline, as he was in a situation where he definitely wouldn't be able to leave the village to produce the song in the short term, so he could only verbally agree for now.

"Brother Chen, why do I get the feeling you're not interested at all? You're not planning on not recording these songs, are you?"

Even the wisest person can make a mistake, and even the most foolish person can have a stroke of genius. Perhaps Peng Peng is slow to react in other matters, but he is very perceptive in this one. He guessed Ouyang Chenqing's idea right away.

As soon as Peng Peng said this, everyone's eyes immediately turned to Chen Qing. Even the viewers in the live stream were waiting for his answer, as they were planning to listen to the album when it came out! Chen Qing was slightly surprised that Peng Peng had guessed his thoughts, but he didn't hide it and nodded, "Yes! The village will be busy harvesting crops recently, so I have to go and help out at each household. We'll have to talk about recording the song later when I have time."

"I remember there's software that can extract audio! And it's high quality, so it should be just as good."

Okay! It seems he definitely won't be recording any new music anytime soon, which is such a shame. Doesn't he know that releasing these songs would bring him huge popularity and a lot of money?
I don't understand. If they were the ones who wrote these songs, why would they do farm work? Wouldn't it be better to earn millions from a single song?
“Xiao Chen! Without your approval and signature, let alone those music platforms, even state-owned TV stations wouldn’t dare to produce and broadcast your songs. That would not only result in a fine, but it would also be illegal.”

Huangshi has started to educate Chen Qing about the law, which is why Chen Qing's songs are trending but there are no links to them online. It's not that they don't have the technology, but that they don't dare to.

"Oh! It's alright, go ahead and do it! As long as you don't charge for these songs."

This is already copying others' work. Chen Qing can't do it, yet he shamelessly accepts money. As for promoting these songs, he is still very happy to see them, after all, he also wants these songs to continue to shine and resonate in this time and space, and to be known and sung by more people.

Of course, no one else would know what Chen Qing was thinking. Seeing Chen Qing give away the broadcasting rights for free, everyone was amazed by his character. He regarded money as dirt!

Don't underestimate this income. A good song's broadcast rights can bring in at least a million, and even a less good one can still bring in several hundred thousand. Moreover, Chen Qing's songs are rare and excellent works. I dare not say more than five million, but they are definitely worth more.

This is an amount that most people would never give up, even if it were hundreds of thousands. Besides, they know Chen Qing's wealth; without their program signing fee, he would be considered an absolute poverty-stricken household.

A child who has been poor since childhood would definitely try to grab money whenever he sees it, but he gave up the money that was rightfully his, just because he wanted more people to hear his songs. This quality is truly commendable.

"Xiao Chen, let me toast you. You're such a wonderful kid."

Let's all raise a glass to Xiao Chen! May his songs be loved by even more people.

Led by Teacher Huang and Teacher He, everyone raised their glasses and took another sip, and then the game continued.
