This star just wants to make more money

Chapter 88 Will the pressure be great?

After being sent home by Cheng Luan, Xu Feng did not rest. Instead, he planned to listen to all of Xiao Yue's songs first to get to know himself and his opponent.

After Xiao Yue’s concert ends tomorrow morning, Xu Feng will also watch the recording.

Whether it is due to the amount of money or Xu Feng’s own feelings, Lin Shenghuan’s commission this time must be faced with the most serious attitude.

In case the opponent's works, performances and album sales are really impressive, Xu Feng may need to designate a more targeted song to conduct a strong comparative competition.

Just because you travel to another world and your previous works disappear, it doesn’t mean that all the singers here are idiots.

Lin Shenghuan himself is the best proof.

Moreover, it is not enough for the song to be good, it must also fit Lin Shenghuan's own style, or at least not be too different.

For example, it feels a bit weird to ask her to sing "You Once".

After putting on headphones and turning on his phone, Xu Feng saw countless reminders before he even opened the music player app.

It's not about urging Xu Feng to release a new album, but urging him to ship the peripheral products as soon as possible.

"Brother, where are your chopsticks? I've already told my parents about it, and now I'm just waiting for you to ship them."

"Xu Feng, please ship the goods quickly. I'm waiting for school to start so I can show off this big toy to my classmates."

"I didn't get it. By the way, will the 'What's the Use of Plum' series be updated in the future? Will you release a whole series of peripherals?"

"Being a fan of Xu Feng is such a brand new experience..."

"For those of you above, I think you shouldn't be too eager to be happy. I saw someone has already dug it up online. This endorsement and selling of goods is a challenge for "Make Money, Celebrity". It is said that in the end, there will be a refund and compensation of souvenirs, and you may not get the actual chopsticks."

"Huh??? I've taken off my pants and you're showing me this?!"

"Damn, no way, this is my first time placing an order after seeing an ad, and you're telling me you can't ship it?"

“No! I don’t want industrial waste souvenirs. I want super cool artificial intelligence chopsticks that will make my little brother at home envious and cry!”

"Xu Feng, I love you. Xu Feng, I hate you. Xu Feng, I like you. I want to stab you to death. Is this how you treat your fans?"

"It's okay. I asked someone inside. This endorsement must have real products. In other words, at least the one in Du Mian'er's hand is real! As long as there are a few real ones, I don't believe I can't buy it!"

"You can buy it. If you pay more money from Xu Feng, you can even go to the moon."

"Xu Feng, can you please come out and say something?"

Xu Feng originally didn’t really want to get involved in this matter - he had already signed a contract with Cheng Luan, and the company would be in charge of all surrounding matters, including public opinion.

But he thought about it and sent a reply anyway.

"This thing is used for the challenge of the program team. There will be a full refund and compensation later. As for how the peripherals will be sold in the future, you can directly consult 'Meishayong Technology'. However, this thing cannot be mass-produced, and the quantity should not be large, so everyone should be mentally prepared."

"Then, let me reiterate that this thing is really expensive and useless, so please be sensible when spending."

After passing the blame to Cheng Luan, Xu Feng logged off at lightning speed and ignored the subsequent comments.

At the same time, he also threw the account password of this account to Cheng Luan.

Xu Feng can indeed understand why celebrities either look for an agency or set up a studio - it is really nice not to have to worry about these trivial matters.

"Let's listen to what songs Xiao Yue has first."

In fact, when participating in "The God of Tomorrow's Singer", Xu Feng had already heard Xiao Yue's singing during the mentor performance session.

And it is a real live viewing, not an edited and adjusted version.

The level cannot be said to be bad no matter what.

But to say that he is outstanding, it is not necessarily the case... at least there is a clear gap compared to Lin Shenghuan.

But behind Xiao Yue, there is an entire top team and the full support of the company behind them.

With the tuning of a top team and overwhelming marketing money, Xiao Yue's albums and live performances are definitely not on the same level.

In this day and age, audiences are much more tolerant of flaws in live performances.

As long as you don't lip-sync, there won't be much of a problem.

This is also why, although Lin Shenghuan is obviously stronger, he is actually on par with Xiao Yue.

After listening to a few of her songs, Xu Feng nodded slightly.

"The style is indeed very similar to Sister Huan's... and look at the time of publication. Wow, Sister Huan didn't fight with her when she saw her. She is indeed a person of good character."

"But that's okay, she's still easy to target."

"At least 'Song of Water Melody' can be used perfectly."

How long was the line "When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the blue sky" sung at that time?

Many people even sing these two sentences subconsciously when they see them.

It also fits Lin Shenghuan's singing style.

Even in the lyrics column, Xu Feng could directly write the name "Su Shi", and the two words "Xu Feng" only appeared in the arrangement.

More low-key, less eye-catching, and perfectly fulfilling Lin Shenghuan's needs.

"Red Bean" can also be considered a song.

However, these two songs cannot satisfy Lin Shenghuan's needs, and she has to draw a few more songs.

"Then draw two more songs."

Xu Feng extracted these two songs from the system, then opened the music library and chose to use all the points for the drawing.

Some time ago, there was a lot of commission challenges on the variety show. Although Liu Wei's big commission has not been completed yet, the guests' small commissions came one after another, especially the time of endorsing the advertisement, which saved a lot of points.

"Not bad. My basic abilities have basically improved to around 20 now. Although it still sounds terrible, it's still a big improvement."

[Congratulations on winning "Love You 105 Degrees", this draw costs a total of 10 points]

[Congratulations on winning "Star River Sigh", this draw costs a total of 10 points]

[Congratulations on winning "Red Dust Inn", this draw costs a total of 10 points]

"I've finished drawing... Well, the songs are good, but it seems that the only one I can use is "Red Dust Inn"?"

Including "Red Bean" and "Song of Water Melody" in the previous music library, there are only three songs, which seems not enough to meet Lin Shenghuan's requirements.

"Then just exchange it directly. Sister Huan has helped me so much, there is no need to save this one item."

Without much hesitation, Xu Feng directly replaced "Love You 105 Degrees" with "Blue and White Porcelain".

Since the opponent is no ordinary person, and since Lin Shenghuan has already been promised 100% success, just bring the trump card over!

These four songs, plus Lin Shenghuan's best preparations, together make up the album. As long as she sings them in the concert, she will surely become a queen.

Now we just need to produce the studio version and send it to Lin Shenghuan within the time limit. Just as Xu Feng was about to sort out the instruments needed for these songs and make a list to send to the instrument rental company, he suddenly received another message on his phone.

Lin Shenghuan: "Xu Feng, um, are you asleep?"

Xu Feng wanted to laugh when he saw her name: "Not yet, I'm preparing your new song for you, don't worry, it's going smoothly, just go to sleep peacefully."

The price she offered Xu Feng was extremely high, with the average price for each song reaching a level of 50, which was considered horrifying and exaggerated by people in the industry. In addition, Xu Feng received more than 6% of the subsequent copyright income from the songs!
Lin Shenghuan completely believed in Xu Feng's promise of "I'll do whatever I'm paid for", so she chose to offer a crazy price, as long as Xu Feng could show his best skills.

Therefore, Xu Feng's level of improvisation, playing and singing has now exceeded 90!

This is also the first time that Xu Feng is truly on the same starting line as Lin Shenghuan in terms of singing skills on paper.

He had already estimated before that if calculated based on the system's scoring, Lin Shenghuan's singing skills would be around 92 points.

With a comprehensive, top-level performance and four timeless classics in its music library, there is no possibility of failure in the works of this queen's concert.

As long as Lin Shenghuan can perform normally, it will be easy for Xiao Yue to surpass her with her current level.

Half a minute later, Lin Shenghuan sent another message: "Xu Feng, I trust you very much. Isn't this what I'm looking for you for?"

Xu Feng asked: "What happened?"

"I have an undercover fan who bought tickets for Xiao Yue's concert tonight and sent me some information." Lin Shenghuan sent a pitiful expression, "She seems to be quite good this time, and her performance on the spot is also better than before..."

"Well, um, didn't you say there was an expedited service after dinner? How much does it cost?"

Xu Feng was amused: "Didn't you swear that you wouldn't buy it?"

"I regret it! I want to buy it. I need to confirm the concert date with my fans tomorrow. I can't delay it any longer. I don't want to see Xiao Yue's smug look in front of me for even a second!"

"Look at her comment section and my comment section now, it's so infuriating."

Is it so stressful?

While Xu Feng was giving Lin Shenghuan a quote, he opened the comment section for both of them.

At first glance, it does feel like it has been deliberately marketed.

"On the spot, Sister Xiao's concert this time has improved a lot compared to previous ones, and every song is very nice. If nothing unexpected happens, I think it will go down in the history of the music industry!"

"The new generation of diva!"

"Sister Xiao is so beautiful!"

"It sounds great, it's a real auditory feast. When will Sister Xiao's album be released? I want to buy it all."

"They are indeed well prepared, much better than a certain big star who decided to delay at the last minute."

"Why hasn't Lin Shenghuan announced the specific time of the concert yet? Is he really canceling it?"

"There were rumors before that it was because of copyright issues. I feel like her concert won't be able to go ahead in the short term."

"It's unreliable. She should not be the queen of pop anymore. Anyway, after watching today's performance, I want to stand on Xiao Yue's side."

"Sister Huan, are you under too much pressure?"

"I guess she will feel even more stressed after watching the concert recording tomorrow, hahaha!"

"Personally, I feel there is no suspense - if this copyright issue hadn't happened, the two of them could still compete. Now even if she bites the bullet and forces a concert, without the copyrights to her best works, how can she be competitive if she forces herself to sing improvised songs or old songs?"

"And with such a big mistake, her condition will definitely be affected a little, right?"

"Well, I think that when the two were about to have a decisive battle, Lin Shenghuan suddenly did something like this. I always feel that there is some conspiracy behind it."

"You must be joking. When has my sister Xiao Yue ever been inferior to Lin Shenghuan? Do I need to resort to such means?!"

"hehe."

“I think some people shouldn’t be too sore losers.”

"..."

"Wait, hurry up and check Lin Shenghuan's Weibo. She announced the start time of the concert! It's in 10 days!"

"What the hell? So sudden?"

"Is the pressure from Xiao Yue really that great that I can't postpone it? But forcing the concert to go ahead doesn't seem to make much sense, right?"

"Interesting. It's already been postponed once. Will it be a smokescreen again this time?"

"I don't think so. One postponement is an accident, but two postponements are like crying wolf, which will cause resentment."

"Does that mean Lin Shenghuan's copyright issue has been resolved?"

"As far as I know, no, and the situation has gotten even worse... Haven't you noticed that Lin Shenghuan's agent hasn't appeared around her for a long time?"

"In other words, force your way in?"

"Then I think she's doomed. It's better not to have sex than to force it..."

After reading these comments, Xu Feng shook his head slightly.

In terms of public opinion momentum, Lin Shenghuan was indeed suppressed by Xiao Yue, and even issues like copyright issues had become a big-character poster.

Even if there has been no problem before and each crisis has been resolved, the public opinion is still biased towards "suspicion."

When the audience looks at a person or an event with a "suspicious" attitude, they will subconsciously find fault with it.

This invisibly added another layer of pressure to Lin Shenghuan.

Being able to reach the position of a quasi-queen under such adverse circumstances can only mean that Lin Shenghuan’s hard power is indeed very solid.

On the phone, Lin Shenghuan, who had just posted a Weibo update, sent another message to Xu Feng: "Xu Feng, I have officially announced it. There is no turning back. Whether it can be successful depends entirely on you! You must succeed. I really want Baidu Encyclopedia and major music platforms to add the title of queen to me. This is really awesome!"

"If I don't get it, I'll cry for a month."

"The most important thing is, if this title is taken by Xiao Yue, I would feel so aggrieved and uncomfortable just imagining the scene when we meet in the future."

Xu Feng still replied calmly: "As long as Sister Huan's concert goes well, it will be easy to crush Xiao Yue."

Before he knew it, he had been busy until almost dawn.

"Okay, then we'll ship it out in five days, let's see..."

Before Xu Feng finished reading Lin Shenghuan's message, he received a call from an unknown number.

Xu Feng didn't think much about it. He rubbed his eyes, which were a little sore from working all night, and picked up the phone: "Hello?"

However, the voice on the other end of the phone immediately made Xu Feng's sleepiness disappear!
"Xu Feng? I'm Xiao Yue."
