Start with a pop song

Chapter 185: The Road to Heaven; The Annoying Little Goblin
"A beautiful girl is standing on a high hill, hoping that a railway will be built to my hometown. The lyrics are so well written, and the image comes to mind right away!"

“It is a magical road to heaven, with a climax rising from the ground, just like the determination and will of those predecessors who built the road!”

"A huge dragon flies directly from the capital city on a snowy plateau that has been there for thousands of years. Oh my god... Mr. Song Dao's lyrics are so beautiful! The momentum is so strong!"

"It was the first time I watched Teacher Song create live in this way. My scalp was tingling and I felt like crying."

"Is this what a genius can do? I have always been curious about what those great songwriters are like during the creative process. Now I finally see it and finally understand it. It is really amazing. I admire them so much!"

"Brother Gou's handwriting is so good! If I could write like this, wouldn't my dad kowtow to me on the spot?"

"My friend upstairs, you are really filial!"

In the comment section of the live broadcast room, a large number of comments were flooding the screen.

At the same time, the number of people is constantly rising.

Xia Hong's team, who were also in this carriage, were extremely busy with business.

Those investors and advertisers who had initially either politely declined or were somewhat sarcastic, now all came to us with clear eyes and extremely enthusiastic attitudes.

"I'm sorry that we made a wrong judgment before..."

"Hey, Xiao Wang, let me first apologize to you. Can we talk about this ad placement issue?"

"I spoke a little too loudly before..."

In the soft sleeper compartment of several main guests.

Song Dao is still immersed in his "creation".

【That is a magical heavenly road】

【Take us into paradise on earth】

[Highland barley wine and butter tea will be sweeter]

[The song of happiness spreads everywhere]

Qin Ge was standing behind Song Dao, his face full of shock.

Zhong Yutong's eyes were as clear as water. She avoided the live camera and stared at her master quietly.

Xia Hong, who was standing next to Qin Ge, could no longer hold back tears from her already red eyes when she read the lyrics "Highland barley wine and butter tea will be even sweeter".

so good!
This song written by my brother is really good!
Before, she had always envied Yin Hong, Qin Lang, and Chu Peining.

Especially the previous song "Entering the New Era".

To be honest, she really wanted to fight for it at that time.

But she was very keen to notice a small detail at that time...that is, if she really wanted it, Chu Peining would give it to her!

Although Sister Chu also showed that she really wanted to sing that song and was determined to win, she just had a hunch that if she wanted it, Sister Chu would give it to her!
But the reason was not because of their friendship for so many years, but because of Song Dao!

To be more clear, Chu Peing didn't want to make things difficult for her brother because of a song!

That feeling was not that he didn't like the song, but simply that he didn't want to appear inconsiderate in front of his younger brother Song Dao.

This is amazing!
In the music industry, there are many big names who have quarreled over a song.

A good song can make a person live a lifetime, or significantly elevate his or her status.

For example, Qin Lang.

Without "The Motherland Will Not Forget" and "The East Flows the Mighty Yangtze River", no matter how famous he is in the circle, few ordinary people in the country would know him.

But now, even if you are not familiar with him, how many ordinary people have not heard of these two songs?
After realizing this, Xia Hong, who had always dared to fight, "backed down" for the first time in her life.

Afterwards, I went into the recording studio with Chu Peining and each of us recorded a version, which was just a way to save face.

In fact, Chu Peining told her about it privately afterwards.

"My brother is a sentimental person. He will remember your kindness to him. Even though he has given two songs to Yin Hong, Qin Lang and me now, don't be impatient. You have seen his creative ability with your own eyes. If you treat him well in the future, he will definitely create better ones for you!"

Xia Hong had no doubt about this.

With her decades of life experience, she has a clear view of the character of her younger brother Song Dao.

So when she encountered difficulties this time, she didn't hesitate and went straight to Song Dao for help.

The purpose of this show is to make money.

As for charity, that's her business.

For this program itself, the most important point that she and her team emphasized is: it is strictly forbidden to use any banner related to charity, and if anyone is found to be leading the trend online, they must deal with it immediately.

Need to clarify!

As I said, you can be kind, but you cannot ask others to be noble with you.

Whether to do it or not, and how to do it, everyone has their own code of conduct.

No need for guidance from others.

There is no need for others to educate you.

Facts have proved that her choice can be summed up in one word - awesome!
Yes, these two words can be one word to her.

My brother’s popularity in the field of variety shows is really explosive.

Qin Ge has many fans, but no matter how many there are, not many people come to watch this show just to listen to Qin Ge singing.

Only Song has arrived!

This is no rookie.

This is a hero who suddenly appeared...
He is Sister Zhou’s hero, Qin Lang’s and Sister Chu’s hero, and also Xia Hong’s hero.

Of course, there are also heroes from the Feiyang faction headed by Lin Fei!
Before Song Dao created this song, she only wanted the show effect and wanted to make more money through this show.

Only when she has money can she do what she wants.

Only then can you be more calm and at ease!
Of course, deep down in my heart, I am also looking forward to it: Brother, brother, please take a look at me. Although I don’t have a beautiful face, I have a good voice and a beautiful heart, so please help me and compose a song, okay?
Of course she would think so.

But I really didn't expect that this moment would come so quickly and so suddenly.

At this moment, watching Song Dao composing music, her throat couldn't help but hum along softly -

Ta-la~ Ta-la~ Da-da-da-da-da~
Then her eyes became even brighter!
She quietly walked a few steps outside and let the camera switch to her.

There were still traces of tears at the corners of his eyes.

But he whispered mysteriously to the netizens in the live broadcast room: "The composition of this song is not entirely based on Western music! Only in the key places. It incorporates many elements of popular songs from the mainland and Jiangnan, including the prelude... It is the Mongolian horse-head fiddle, descending in octaves... Teacher Song is really a genius. This song not only has good lyrics, but also has a great melody! The emotions are richer! Hehe, are you anxious to listen to it?"

Even if she didn't say it, countless netizens in the live broadcast room were extremely anxious.

After her very professional introduction, while humming the melody of the song, she directly drove countless people crazy——

"Sister Hong, you're going too far!"

"This is the first time I've discovered that Sister Hong actually has such a childish side."

"Haha, do you really think we are in a hurry? I'm telling you, Sister Hong, don't force me to kneel down and beg you!"

"Sister Hong is so mean, she actually learned to keep people on suspense!"

"Who would be in a hurry to listen? Maybe someone is in a hurry to sing?"

Netizens are like this. Even if they are teased to the extreme, there are still many stubborn, talented, and fun-loving ones.

It is precisely because of the various jokes from this group of netizens that this program has become extremely popular before it has even "officially started broadcasting".

……

Chen Qingshan and other senior executives of Times Media are currently in the company's conference room, with the content of the live broadcast of "Walking and Singing" being projected on the big screen.

Song Dao was publicly creating, top actor Qin Ge was standing behind him like a little fan "serving tea and water", Zhong Yutong had a look of admiration on her face, and the eldest sister Da Hongjie was acting as a comedian and interacting and chatting with netizens.

The camera occasionally turns to the outside of the window - the train has still not left this desolate Gobi Desert.

"It's such a low-brow show that they haven't even used a drone once."

“Although they all wore Xiayun brand clothes and drank calf milk, they didn’t have any decent costumes, props, or awesome sound systems, and they didn’t have a top-notch stage…”

"However, the peak number of viewers in the live broadcast room reached nearly 10 million, and the number of online viewers remained at a terrifying 3 to 4 million."

"As far as I know, many brands that did not choose to cooperate with them before are now crying and shouting to buy a train ticket."

"That's what I said before, variety shows need change!"

A young-looking woman with short hair and a smart business suit.

Her eyes are not big, but they are very charming. Her skin is not white, but it gives people a very healthy feeling.

This woman's name is Guo Qingsong. She was recently poached by Chen Qingshan and was appointed as the senior vice president to replace Lu Wen.

Responsible for the company's music and variety show sections.

Unlike Lu Wen, an old gangster whose head is full of tricks.

Guo Qingsong is a typical pragmatist.

As soon as he arrived at the company, he put forward several drastic suggestions for reform.

Many of Lu Wen’s trusted subordinates were taken away.

This also caused many people to be wary and dissatisfied with this young woman.

It’s just that the boss Chen Qingshan highly values this woman who had worked at Orange TV for several years and had been unknown before, but was extremely capable.

With the support of his boss, Guo Qingsong was ruthless in doing things.

Although she has only been at Times Media for a short time, she has already become the "female devil" in many people's minds.

At this time, someone asked, "Mr. Guo, we agree with your suggestion of reform, but how can we change in order to come up with something of this magnitude?"

Someone else said, "Yes, Mr. Guo, many of our Xia country's variety shows were purchased from foreign countries. It is not easy to independently develop a variety show that can be accepted by the market."

"Yes, Sing While Walking became popular before it was officially aired, and that's because they invited Song Dao..."

With someone taking the lead, the group of people in the meeting room started discussing the issue.

Although most of the comments were not constructive, Guo Qingsong still listened carefully.

She folded her arms, looked focused, and responded positively to everyone - thinking seriously and nodding slightly.

At this time, a person she had just promoted said, "I think that the success of a somewhat low-level program like "Singing While Walking" may not be entirely due to Song Dao, but because the program has a good story. For the audience, it not only has a strong sense of participation, but also a strong sense of expectation."

Guo Qingsong turned his gaze to the middle-aged man in his early forties.

When Lu Wen was there, this middle-level manager, who was also a veteran in the company, never performed well.

After observing him for a period of time, she found that this person was talented, but very aloof.

She didn't like being in the same boat with Lu Wen and his gang, and even when she offered an olive branch, she didn't want to accept it at first.

She talked to him several times and let him understand her thoughts better, and only then did she win him over.

She looked at the man: "Zhang Hai, you are right, keep talking."

Zhang Hai received the boss's affirmation, but his face did not show much excitement. He just nodded and said seriously: "In fact, our country has a long history and culture, and bridges and roads are just a small part of it.

We have famous mountains and rivers, and each mountain has countless stories of its own.

We have big rivers, and each of them has flowed through thousands of years of glorious past.

We have a variety of cultural heritages, any one of which can be taken out and made into a separate program.

We are a comprehensive company, not just a music company.

We have abundant artist resources and we don’t need to limit ourselves to singers.

They can do this kind of live broadcast and production and broadcast program, and so can we.

But we can learn, but there is no need to plagiarize..."

At this point, Chairman Chen Qingshan couldn't help but applaud in the conference room.

Others also applauded.

It has to be said that there is no shortage of talent in this land with a long history.

Let alone the entertainment industry, even if you were to conquer the world throughout history, a county town could have a complete team to govern the country...

Under the leadership of Chen Qingshan, Times Media has been popular from the 1990s to today, but it is also because Chen Qingshan's team is too solid!
Inevitably, I suffered from big company disease.

If it weren't for Lu Wen's sudden accident, which left a key position vacant, until today, neither Guo Qingsong would have been in trouble, nor would Zhang Hai, a middle-aged man who obviously had something up his sleeve but had always been unknown, have the opportunity to speak.

Many people are like this. They may not be innovative, but they are very good at filling in the gaps!
After Zhang Hai put forward these ideas, everyone's enthusiasm was immediately aroused, and they began to make suggestions one after another, and they also wanted to create a program that was similar in form but completely different in core.

……

In fact, not only Times Media, but also many large and small companies, including Star Entertainment, and people from TV stations, are also studying the "singing while walking" model.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the cost of this program will not be too high. Let alone booking an entire soft sleeper car, how much would it cost to book the entire train?
But the achievements created are so enviable!

Not to mention anything else, just the rewards in the live broadcast room alone, according to rough statistics by some people, are no less than several million every day!

Yes, it's that scary.

At first, it was the wealthy people who wanted to reward Song Dao in the past but never had the chance.

Those people really have a lot of money.

Tens of millions or even hundreds of millions are nothing but a drizzle for this group of people.

Then there appeared people who hoped to advertise themselves or their products through this popular program with a large number of online viewers.

If you can’t get first place, being tenth is also OK!

Then it soon attracted some businesses.

To sponsor "Singing While Walking", it would cost at least several million, but in the live broadcast room, if you spend a few hundred thousand or a hundred thousand, you can at least be number one on the list for a long time.

That's a great deal.

But this little trick was soon discovered by big companies like Xiaoniu and Xiayun that were truly wealthy and powerful.

We spent so much money on advertising, and you want to be number one in the live broadcast room?

That won't work!

So a battle started in the live broadcast room of "Walking and Singing".

Sponsors such as Xiao Mavericks and Xia Yun quickly reached the top.

Other individuals or businesses with different ideas also gave in after several rounds of arguing.

It seems that Xiao Niu and Xia Yun are at a disadvantage.

But in reality, the top executives of their company were grinning from ear to ear.

Because of this war, they easily became a hot topic on the audio-visual search along with the program "Walking and Singing".

When you click in, you will see their advertisements everywhere in various video slices!

Even the fact that they spent money to get on the list became a hot search on its own. Although the ranking was not high, it was really not the publicity effect that could be achieved by spending that little money.

Anything else is nonsense. Similar things have been said by Xiayun Chairman Zhang Rong and Niu, Chairman of Xiaoniu.

Our ultimate goal is to sell goods.

As long as sales increase, everything will be fine!

This program, which has only been launched for a few days, has already brought huge sales revenue to these sponsoring brands.

Otherwise, how can we attract those merchants who originally refused to "sing while walking"?

Why do all the major TV stations become jealous and want to follow suit?

……

In the soft sleeper compartment.

Song Dao has completed the composition of "Heavenly Road".

Xia Hong was overjoyed and sat on the lower bunk opposite, watching it carefully.

Zhong Yutong sat next to her and studied with her.

Qin Ge was massaging Song Dao's shoulders.

"Mr. Song...Brother Song, what do you think of my singing?"

"No, you're my brother! Don't be so polite." The bastard said no, but his ascetic face showed a bit of enjoyment.

It’s not because Qin Ge is a top star, but because this guy is really good!
This interaction between the two, including the expression on Song Dao's face at this moment, drove countless people in the live broadcast room crazy.

"Ahhh, love love!"

"It's so funny. I just wanted to tell you why the Queen looked at Brother Gou with a squinting look, but it didn't work. Look, look! Now it's finally exposed, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense, my Qin Ge is a straight man!"

"Yes, yes, your straight man is massaging Brother Gou's shoulders..."

"Actually, Qin Ge can sing, too. If Teacher Song wants to write a song for him, isn't that a matter of minutes?"

"I really like Qin Ge and Song Dao as a couple. Let's be together!"

"Where do all these heretics and evildoers come from in the live broadcast room?"

"These heretics seem to be all beautiful women, and they are giving rewards like crazy..."

The people in the soft sleeper car naturally couldn't see these.

Song Dao said helplessly: "There's really nothing I can do about you, a troublesome little goblin."

puff!
Xia Hong and Zhong Yutong, who were watching the song "Heavenly Road" seriously, burst out laughing.

Xia Hong laughed exaggeratedly, and Zhong Yutong also covered her face with her hands.

Oh my God, Master, how can you say such words with such a calm face?
Not to mention the two of them, even a few staff members who were not in the picture burst into laughter.

The netizens in the live broadcast room went completely crazy.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

"What did I say? What did I say?!"

"So you are this kind of dog brother!"

"A domineering male CEO pampers his handsome little male pet... it's crazy!"

"It's so pink, I love it!"

"Together!"

Qin Ge was also shocked by Song Dao's sudden joke, and his hands left Song Dao's shoulders instantly as if they were burned.

A look of horror on his face.

It made countless netizens in the live broadcast room laugh like crazy.

When it comes to creating program effects, Song Dao has never failed.

As for what kind of noise would be made as a result, he didn't care at all.

He would not deliberately create a "ruin" personality, but he also doesn't care what others think of him.

Even though he is extremely popular now, he is still a creator!
This was no longer the time when he had just traveled through time and had no foundation. Facing an unfamiliar world, he had to be cautious with everything he did.

Now, as long as he doesn't have any major problems of principle, relying on the works in his mind and the various skills constantly refreshed by the system mall, his future life will not be bad.

If that’s the case, why can’t we live more freely?
He sat there, without looking back, and said to Qin Ge behind him: "I was chasing after your fairy sword before."

Qin Ge said in disbelief: "Really?"

Song Dao: "Of course, but at that time your crew was asking Shui Ji San Qian for a song, and I was a nobody, so no one paid any attention to me!"

Qin Ge really didn't know.

But Xia Hong and Zhong Yutong, two people who knew the truth, knew it very well.

There I watched Song Dao perform with a smile on my face.

"So, Mr. Song...actually, there were suitable songs at that time?"

Qin Ge is such a smart person. When Song Dao suddenly changed the topic, he reacted almost instantly.

The live broadcast room is also very lively at this moment.

"Eh hey hey, no way?"

"What do you mean, Brother Gou? Are you not convinced by the Water Strike 3,000?"

"Hahaha, this is hilarious. Song Dao has a very good relationship with Shui Ji San Qian. He even accepted the award on his behalf before. That's why he dared to make such a shameless joke that was so sour that it could penetrate the screen, right?"

"Maybe it's really sour!"

"I love Fairy Sword so much. If Brother Gou could really create a song, it would be full of emotion!"

"I hope Brother Gou can compose a song for his male lover, Mr. Qin Ge!"

"I love Fairy Sword so much, there are so many things in it that I can't let go of!"

At this time, Song Dao had picked up the pen again and said, "Yes, there is indeed a song that is not only suitable for that Fairy Sword, but also suitable for you, but..."

"I understand! Teacher Song, I understand your rules! I've heard that if you write a song for me, I don't want any copyrights. Just give me the right to sing it. I don't even need the right to adapt it. Anyway, I'm not a professional..."

Qin Ge didn't expect that he would actually get a song from Teacher Song just by mentioning it half-jokingly. He was so excited.

Quickly put your face in front of a fixed camera position.

The staff also switched the screen to this camera position in real time.

Qin Ge said to the camera in a low voice: "Family members, this is a big win. Do you know who Teacher Song wrote songs for before?"

"The Queen of Pop Lin Fei! The international superstar Brother Long! The legendary sister Sister Hong beside me, and the legendary teacher Chu Peining's song "Into the New Era"!"

"Let's say, I press my shoulders twice in exchange for a song, and I want to ask you if it's worth it?"

Little did he know that at this moment the barrage of comments and the comments section of the live broadcast room were filled with joyous ridicule.

"You annoying little goblin!"

"It's so funny, is that a massage? That's just a grind!"

"The overbearing CEO Dog Brother can't stand you, so he treats you as a little pendant with a song attached."

"Hahaha, you annoying little goblin, Brother Dog is so funny..."

"Brother Gou is really mean. He described Qin Ge, a straight man, as a goblin."

"I look forward to Qin Ge's expression when he turns around and finds out the truth. Program crew, you must give us your support. Don't miss this scene."

"Everyone may joke about it, but let's be honest, this show is finally starting to have the flavor of 'singing while walking'."

"If you ask me, when the film is released, it should be called 'Walking, Creating, and Singing'!"

"As long as God is with you, you will never have to worry about creative bottlenecks."

"What do you think? Can one become a king by reaching the level of God?"

At this time, the camera returns to Song Dao.

I saw that he had already written the song title and a few lyrics -

"Xiaoyao Sigh"

[Time is rare and silent, the autumn wind is tired of wandering]

[The setting sun refuses to leave, hanging on the wall, unwilling to let me go]

[The words that the woman whispered to me in the past have flowed eastward with the sound of the tide]

[Looking back at the past, it's like the maple leaves falling one by one]

Even though Song Dao has proven his creative ability many times on various occasions.

Especially since he had just written a soul-stirring poem "Heavenly Road", when he turned to write "Xiao Yao Tan", the feeling of ease and freedom, and the low singing contained in the words still shocked countless people.

So in the live broadcast room at this moment——

“I don’t know if I can become a superstar, but in the field of composition, I am definitely at the level of a gold medal songwriter.”

“Even a gold medal lyricist and composer may not be able to write themes like “My Chinese Heart”, “The Motherland Will Not Forget”, or “Entering a New Era”; nor can they write songs like “Horse Racing” or “Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon”, let alone rock songs like “Shame on Myself” or “Fake Monk”!”

"The 'round warrior' shouted out by the Spring Festival Gala may seem like a joke, but it is actually a recognition from outside the music circle. Song Dao's creative ability no longer needs recognition from within the music circle!"

"Brother Gou's ability to tailor-make things for people is in no way inferior to Water Strike 3,000!"

"His singing skills are amazing. I studied music. To be honest, the more professional you are, the more you understand how terrible his singing skills are!"

"Suona, piano, guitar... I feel like there's nothing he can't play."

“This is true musical genius!”

By the time Song Dao finished writing the song and started teaching Qin Ge, the number of people in the live broadcast room had exceeded seven million!

The amount of gifts given as rewards directly broke the record.

Because of this time, a large number of Qin Ge and Legend of Sword and Fairy fans flocked in instantly.

Then countless people followed Qin Ge.

Learn to sing live!
