Going to work? Even a dog wouldn't go!

Chapter 64, Older Men Know How to Care
Tao Linlin was previously puzzled as to why Chen Huan, a top agent in the industry, would join Xianyu Music, a newly established small company.

With her connections and business acumen, she could easily choose any of the top music companies in the industry.

Now she understands that Chen Huan is "investing in the future".

She's betting that "Sixth Sense," who has already created "Decent" and "Apple Scent," will become a top-tier musician in the music industry!

There are basically three types of people who can be called "big shots" in the music industry. The first type is a regional hegemon, that is, the actual head of several major music companies. The second type is a superstar who has been popular in the music industry for more than ten or twenty years. The third type is a songwriter who has created many popular songs and made many singers famous.

Some music companies are able to grow and thrive because they have a top-tier songwriter at the helm, who provides a continuous stream of stars.

If we compare a music company to a car, then the creators are the engine of that car. The more powerful the engine, the faster the car will run.

Looking at the music scene today, the older generation of veteran songwriters have passed their creative peak and rarely release songs anymore, while there are no new generation songwriters who can be called "veteran songwriters".

Chen Huan joined Xianyu Music because she saw the potential in "Sixth Sense," after all, the other party is only 22 years old, and she obviously wanted to take a big gamble.

If this sixth-sense mentor of the company can eventually become a top-tier creator, then Xianyu Music will definitely become one of the top music companies in China.

Joining a top music label and building a top music label from scratch are completely different things.

For example, if you join an NBA player who was already a champion team, how can your value be demonstrated?
So now I also have the opportunity to witness a "legend"?

Thinking of this, Tao Linlin was actually a little excited. She had come to Xianyu Music at Chen Huan's invitation, originally just treating it as an ordinary job.

But now the meaning seems to have suddenly changed. If she can accompany Xianyu Music all the way to its rise and eventually become a top music company in the industry, she will not only gain a great sense of accomplishment, but fame and fortune will also come naturally!

Zhang Dongshan had no idea that a song could evoke so many thoughts in Tao Linlin. Hearing their praise, he felt genuinely proud.

This amazing song was written by Zhang Dongshan's son!

“Xiaoxian inherited my musical genes from a young age. He was able to write songs in high school, so I’m not surprised at all that he has such creative abilities.”

Zhang Dongshan proudly started bragging.

In front of his sweetheart, he had to show off his son's excellence, attributing it all to his father's efforts.

"Brother Shan, I know a TV series is currently soliciting theme songs. 'Ordinary People's Song' would be perfect. I'll go and get in touch with them. That series is a big production. If it gets selected, we can not only make a fortune, but also save a lot on the song's promotion costs."

At a dinner party a few days ago, Chen Huan met the famous director Kong Sanmin, who specifically mentioned to her that if there were any songs suitable for his new drama, she should recommend them to him.

It is said that when the TV series started filming, he commissioned a famous composer to write the theme song. However, when the post-production of the TV series was almost finished, the famous composer finally delivered a song, but it did not fit the TV series at all, and the quality of the song was also very average.

Kong Sanmin sent Chen Huan information about a TV series called "Golden Years," which was a realistic drama about a large family's life spanning thirty years.

"Okay, once I record the song, you can send me a copy."

This is a good thing, and Zhang Dongshan has no reason to refuse.

The three waited at the company for a while longer before Zhao Xiangqian arrived with his men.

"Wow, Sister Huan is here too!"

Zhao Xiangqian recognized Chen Huan, but Chen Huan was someone he looked up to. Zhao Xiangqian was just an unknown music producer, while Chen Huan was a well-known top agent in the industry. The difference in their status was quite significant.

"Mr. Chen, this is Lao Zhao, Zhao Xiangqian, an old buddy of mine for decades." "And that's the recording engineer Curly, the guitarist Big Head, and the keyboardist Old K."

Zhang Dongshan then introduced the other people who came with Zhao Xiangqian, all of whom he had known for many years.

Once everyone is here, let's get started.

Chen Huan and Tao Linlin had originally planned to go out for dinner, but seeing Zhang Dongshan and the others working at the company, they decided to order takeout instead.

During a break from work, everyone had a meal together, which helped them get to know each other better, since they would be working together in the future.

Zhang Dongshan had already spoken with Zhao Xiangqian about getting him into the company's music production department, but he couldn't be given the position of director, firstly because his skills were limited, and secondly because he wasn't famous enough.

Zhao Xiangqian had no objection to this; he knew his own limitations.

After finishing their late-night snack, everyone continued working.

Tao Linlin, who had nothing else to do, left first, but Chen Huan didn't leave. She was still waiting for the song demo to be ready so she could send a copy to Kong Sanmin.

His film "The Golden Years" has already had its release date set, and all that's missing is the theme song. So we have to race against time. Even if it's just an hour late, once the other side has finalized their decision, the collaboration will fall through.

Two o'clock in the morning.

Zhang Dongshan finally finished recording "Ordinary People's Song," and both he and Zhao Xiangqian were very satisfied with this version.

Stepping out of the recording studio, Zhang Dongshan was still immersed in an excited mood, showing no signs of fatigue from continuous work.

Meanwhile, Chen Huan, who was in the lounge, had already fallen asleep on the sofa. Upon seeing this, Zhang Dongshan quickly gestured for Zhao Xiangqian and the others, who were still talking loudly, to be quiet.

"Old Zhao, you take us guys to find a place first, I'll be there later."

As is customary, after recording the song, they would have a drink to celebrate. Zhao Xiangqian and the others were talking about what to eat later, whether it was hot pot or barbecue, which were probably the only options at this time.

After hearing Zhang Dongshan's words, Zhao Xiangqian immediately understood. He teased in a low voice, "Old Zhang, if you can win over Sister Huan, it's fine if you don't come. But you'll have to pay for the bill!"

"Alright, let's go!"

Zhang Dongshan gave Zhao Xiangqian a push, and he immediately left with his men, all smiles.

Only the two of them remained in the lounge. Zhang Dongshan walked to the sofa and covered Chen Huan with his coat.

He had originally planned to wait for the other person to wake up, as staying up all night would be exhausting, and older men are supposed to be considerate!
As soon as the clothes were put on Chen Huan, she woke up.

"Finished recording?"

Chen Huan instinctively put her work first, and then noticed the clothes she was wearing.

Even the strongest woman is still a woman and needs to be cared for.

Zhang Dongshan's seemingly insignificant act of covering Chen Huan with a coat brought a long-lost warmth to Chen Huan, who had been single for a long time and had been without romantic relationships.
