HuaYu97: Starting as a Singer

Chapter 89 [089] New Feature, Rich Woman Killer

"It's pretty good, I'll include it in my new album. You guys sign the contract later, and Warner will pay you afterwards."

Qi Yuan only gave a neutral evaluation, fearing that Zhou Jielun and Fang Wenshan would become arrogant.

Both Zhou Jielun and Fang Wenshan were very happy, as their hard work over the past few days had not been in vain.

It's really rare that Qi Yuan is willing to use their lyrics and music; even second- or third-tier singers in the music industry might not be willing to use their songs.

Jay Chou has been with Alfa for almost a year and has written many songs. This is the first time a singer has been willing to use his songs.

Fang Wenshan was the same; the first song whose lyrics were used was "You Are Happier Than Before," which was included in Wu Zhongxian's album released in 99.

Qi Yuan's affirmation greatly encouraged them.

As they left Warner, the two felt the air itself was sweet.

"Wenshan, your lyrics are quite good. You could become a great lyricist." Zhou Jielun's opinion of Fang Wenshan had changed somewhat.

"Your compositions are quite good. Perhaps you could become a great producer or a singer in the future," Fang Wenshan said sincerely.

The composer of "Dong Feng Po" showed him Jay Chou's musical talent; no one without talent could write such a melody.

"A singer?" Jay Chou fell into deep thought.

He admires Qi Yuan and wants to become a dazzling singer like Qi Yuan.

Can he do it?
He has never been very confident in his singing. When he appeared on "Super Newcomer King," he played the piano while his female classmate sang.

Everyone says he sings unclearly and his voice isn't very good.

……

Time enters June.

"My Fair Princess" is a huge hit in Taiwan.

The average viewership rating on CTV exceeded 10 points, and the highest viewership rating exceeded 14 points.

Zhao Yanzi, Zhou Jie, Lin Xinru and others have seen their popularity skyrocket in Taiwan, and Fan Xiaopang's Jin Suo has also won the hearts of many.

The theme song "When" became an instant hit in Taiwan with the popularity of the TV series, quickly climbing to the top of various music charts in Taiwan.

In the streets and alleys of Taiwan, businesses have started playing this song to attract customers.

At the same time, Na-young and her team were promoting "Conquer" in Taiwan.

Na-young's "Conquer" sold exceptionally well in Taiwan, selling over 200,000 copies in just over half a month after its release, and its potential for future growth is still enormous.

These days, Nayoung walks with a swagger; there are hardly any artists in the mainland music scene who can catch her eye anymore.

She even dared to say that veteran mainland singers like Liu Huan, Mao Amin, and Cui Jian should stand up, as should young singers like Qi Yuan, and that everyone else present was trash.

If you only look at record sales, those veteran artists are far inferior to her. Only she and Qi Yuan can sell records in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and they sell very well.

A few days ago, when Na-young first arrived in Taiwan, she heard her song "Conquer" playing in the local music stores and shops.

After a few days of promotion, Na-young gradually realized that something was wrong; she heard "Conquer" much less often on the streets of Taiwan.

A song that starts with "Ah~ Ah~~ Ah~~~" stole much of her limelight.

The person singing this song has a strangely familiar voice, as if I've heard it many times before.

After the autograph session ended, Nayoung got into her car and heard the song again through the window. She couldn't help but ask the person next to her, "Whose song is this? I've heard it so many times these past few days."

"The theme song of 'My Fair Princess,' sung by Qi Yuan. 'My Fair Princess' is very popular in Taiwan, ranking among the top three dramas in viewership so far this year. The popularity of the drama boosted the theme song's popularity," the agent in the same car replied.

Na-young was a little annoyed. It was Qi Yuan again. She said the voice sounded familiar.

Qi Yuan is truly a dark horse.

His debut album was gradually losing popularity, and his Cantonese EP didn't even make it to Taiwan. Now, he's become a sensation again by singing a TV drama theme song.

Other people release one hit song a year, or even only one every few years.

How come this kid's hit songs are like diarrhea, he can spew out a whole bunch of them with just a fart?
However, Nayoung didn't pay much attention to Qi Yuan's song "When".

Unless Qi Yuan releases a new album immediately, it is absolutely impossible for her to defeat "Conquer" and "Meet in 1998" with just one song, "When".

However, in the days that followed, Nayoung felt a little numb.

Because she heard "Dang" more and more often while she was doing promotional work.

I found out that "My Fair Princess" had a very good premiere, and after it finished airing, other TV stations started broadcasting it again.

This drama has been broadcast on television stations in Taiwan.

The popularity of the TV series "My Fair Princess" continues to rise. Never underestimate the boost a hit drama can give to a good song.

With the added boost of the immense popularity of "My Fair Princess" in Taiwan, "Dang" managed to break into the top five of the Taiwanese music charts.

Na-young was stunned. Oh no, was Qi Yuan really going to stab her from behind?
……

Taipei.

Qi Yuanjia.

He's been filming music videos these days. Except for the ones that need to be filmed back in mainland China, all the other music videos are finished.

Before recording the last few songs, Qi Yuan planned to draw a group of rewards.

As is customary, Qi Yuan first burned incense and bathed before drawing the reward.

After preparing, he silently recited, "Panel."

Name: Qi Yuan

Skills Mastered: Singing (Proficient 10000/50000)

Guitar (Proficient 3000/10000)

Composition (Proficient 3000/10000)

Acting skills (Proficient 6000/10000)

Hosting (Entry-level 1500/3000)

[Mastering the characteristics: 50/50 balance, tea appreciation, and perfect pitch]

Number of draws: 3
(From Gao Yuanyuan, Liu Huan, and Zheng Zhongji)

Saving up three attempts before drawing has become a routine for Qi Yuan.

"Three consecutive draws!"

"Successfully extracted. You have obtained half of Liu Huan's singing ability attribute, Legendary level, 250000 points."

"Successfully extracted. You have obtained half of Jung Joong-ki's singing ability attribute, Master level, 25000 points."

"Successfully extracted. You have obtained half of Gao Yuanyuan's acting skills, at the proficient level, with 1500 points."

Gao Yuanyuan's dishes met Qi Yuan's expectations.

Qi Yuan never expected to extract any good attributes from her.

Liu Huan and Tyrannosaurus Brother are quite impressive, especially Liu Huan, who was given 250000 points of singing ability in one go. No wonder he was a big shot who could perform "Me and You" at the 08 Olympics concert.

Looking at the system panel again, Qi Yuan's singing ability and acting skills have been updated.

Skills Mastered: Singing (Master 285000/500000)

Acting Skills (Proficient 7500/10000)

Looking at his singing skills, which had increased many times over, Qi Yuan was very satisfied. Now he could handle songs with even greater difficulty.

The system beep sounded again.

[Successfully progressing together with Chen Huilin, +1 draw chance]

[Successfully progressing together with Zheng Xiuwen, +1 draw chance]

The duet versions of "Good Hearted Breakup" and "Loving Too Late" brought them a wave of exposure.

Both songs have become one of their respective representative works.

Qi Yuan simply smoked those two as well.

"Keep smoking."

He refused to believe he couldn't draw the minimum guaranteed amount.

"Successfully extracted. You have obtained half of Zheng Xiuwen's singing ability attribute, Master level, 25000 points."

"Successfully extracted. Characteristic: Rich Woman Killer, from Chen Huilin. Makes it easier to make rich women fall for her during relationships."

"?"

Qi Yuan looked completely bewildered.
