At this moment, Bronya also said, "Himeko, don't make things difficult for Chiku. He's a pop music composer, what does he know about rap? If you're in a hurry, I can help you find a skilled rapper in the company."
Bai Qianqu panicked. If someone else snatched it away, wouldn't she lose the mission reward?
He quickly volunteered, saying, "Although I've never done this before, I can give it a try!"
"Try it?" Bronya looked skeptical. "You can try this?"
"There's always a first time, right? What if I have a talent for this? And even if I'm not good at rap, I can do pop music. After all, I'm partly responsible for Aunt Himeko's troubles, so it wouldn't be right to just walk away."
"Uh." Bronya was speechless, wondering where this guy got his confidence from.
However, Himeko was very supportive: "It's okay, let's give it a try. If it doesn't work, I'll go find more. Those guys are really strong, probably at the B-level. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to sweep through Changkong City like this. Ordinary singers are no match for them."
Bronya fell silent. Himeko was right. Rap, as a form of musical expression, isn't just about having good basic skills. You not only have to sing well, but your lyrics also have to include elements of battle and diss. And in improvisation, you even have to be quick-witted.
Unless they bring in an A-list rapper, they might not be able to beat them.
A-level singers are equivalent to top-tier singers, so how can they just come to a bar to battle?
If it really comes out, it will probably be in the news that very night.
Even though Bronya is Anti-Entropy's chief agent, she can't just call on A-level singers at will.
"If there's nothing else, we'll head back now."
Just as Bai Qianqu was about to leave, her gaze fell upon a familiar figure at the bar counter.
He squinted and looked closely, and saw Wendy, dressed in green, at the bar, drinking and chatting with the bartender.
"Once I have money, I'll drink every single bottle of wine on your counter!"
The bartender rolled his eyes. This guy had been saying this for almost a month now, it was so annoying.
When Bai Qianqu saw Wendy there, she had a sudden thought and walked over to pat Wendy on the shoulder.
There's a cat at your feet!
Wendy nearly jumped up upon hearing this, looking around frantically with her head down: "Where? Where?"
When he saw Bai Qianqu's face, he couldn't help but beam with joy.
"Haha, it's you! The God of Wealth!"
Bai Qianqu was speechless. When did she steal Old Master Zhong's title?
Without wasting words, he went straight to the point: "Enough with the nonsense, can you rap?"
Wendy raised an eyebrow: "You mean that new way of singing that came in from outside? Of course I know it, I'm the best bard."
'Those bards don't sing.'
Bai Qianqu mentally complained, then said, "Alright, I have a job for you, do you want to take it?"
Wendy's interest was immediately piqued: "What kind of job? Is it lucrative?"
Bai Qianqu was speechless. What was wrong with this guy? Why was he thinking about money right away, just like her?
"You'll have to ask the boss about that," Bai Qianqu said, pointing to Ji Zi behind her.
Himeko understood immediately and said generously, "Is 100,000 enough?"
This time, not only Wendy, but even Bai Qianqu showed a surprised look.
No wonder she's a wealthy woman who owns a bar; she spent 100,000 yuan in one go. She's really generous!
Wendy's eyes lit up, but then he chuckled and said, "..."
"Boss, I don't want money, just let me drink here for free for a month."
The bartender frantically shook his head behind her, hinting, but Himeko ignored him and agreed immediately.
The bartender shook his head and sighed, "We've lost big time. This guy can drink ten thousand in one night."
Chapter 56 The War of the Greater and Lesser Gods
"It's still early, would you like to come in for a coffee?" Himeko asked warmly.
Bronya seemed to have heard something horrifying and shook her head repeatedly, saying, "No, no, we'll go back first."
After that, Bronya grabbed Bai Qianqu and got into the car as if fleeing, then sped away from Xin Yan Bar.
This feeling, as if they were fleeing from something terrifying, left Bai Qianqu completely baffled.
On the way back, Bronya couldn't help but ask, "Chiku, are you really capable of creating this kind of rap? It's quite different from regular pop music."
"I know a little bit." Bai Qianqu didn't want to admit that she actually already had the goods. The reason she hadn't brought them out yet was mainly because she didn't want to attract too much attention.
However, Bronya didn't dwell on it too much, and instead comforted her, "If you're interested, give it a try. Rap songs have been gradually rising in popularity these days, and many songwriters like to add some rap elements to their songs. It's just that rap's audience is still too small right now, and it hasn't shown its full potential."
Bai Qianqu nodded in deep agreement. In China, popular music still dominates, and the development of songs is still in a relatively early stage.
"But now that Himeko mentioned it, I suddenly remembered that you seem to have already written three songs?"
Bai Qianqu blinked: "Uh, I think so."
He had almost forgotten that he hadn't thought about "Xiaochou" since selling the copyright, and hadn't even included it in his last song calculation.
She was thinking of commissioning another song to make it three and try to get into a B-level band, but now it seems that's no longer necessary.
"With these three songs, your advancement to Rank B is practically a done deal." Bronya was also somewhat impressed. How long had Bai Qianqu been a composer? Less than two months, and she was already aiming for Rank B.
There are countless composers in the company who have been struggling for years without ever reaching the B level.
It's really irritating to see people compare to each other.
"So, do you have any plans to release songs this year?" Bronya continued. "Of course, I'm not pressuring you. Generally speaking, one song a month is considered very productive for a composer. Even if you don't release any songs in the second half of the year, it's not a problem."
"We'll see," Bai Qianqu said, still undecided. "I wanted to ask, what are your plans for the song 'Sorrow'?"
Upon hearing this, Bronya's face lit up with excitement.
"The company plans to have this song sung by an S-level singer as one of the songs for this year's Battle of the Gods!"
"The War of the Gods?" Bai Qianqu had heard this term before. "It sounds like some kind of great final battle?"
Bronya laughed: "Calling it the final battle is not wrong. The so-called War of the Gods is the new song chart in the last month of each year. Because it is close to the New Year, the number of people paying attention to the new song chart is the highest of the year. Therefore, many singers will release their best songs in this month. Among them are S-level singers and S-level composers, and even the God of Songs. The top ten are even dominated by S-level artists. The competition is very fierce. It can be said that the gods are fighting. Therefore, people call it the War of the Gods."
"Could it be this terrifying?"
Bai Qianqu gasped.
The new song chart, which even S-level artists and top-tier song creators participate in, will be a fierce and bloody battle.
Bronya added, "Actually, before the War of the Gods, there was a Lesser War of the Gods."
At this point, Bronya deliberately kept everyone in suspense, not continuing the conversation, her expression enigmatic.
Having no other option, Bai Qianqu had to ask, "What is the War of the Lesser Gods?"
With a satisfied look on her face, Bronya continued, "The new song chart for October, which is next month, October! Because of the long holiday, whether you're traveling or staying at home, you'll listen to music to some extent. The number of listeners on music platforms is second only to the Spring Festival. Some people don't want to participate in the battle of the gods, so they choose to release songs in October. Therefore, the October new song chart will also gather many famous singers. Although the overall quality of these people is not as good as at the end of the year, they have more quantity, and dark horses often appear in October."
"Next month?!" Bai Qianqu exclaimed in surprise. "So soon? I'm not prepared."
"What are you preparing?" Bronya couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Don't tell me you want to get involved too? The War of the Lesser Gods may have 'lesser' in its name, but it's still a battle of gods. S-class and A-class gods are everywhere. Even though there are fewer of them, they are still S-class! If you get involved, not only will you put in a lot of effort for nothing, but you'll also easily get eaten up without a trace."
"Although there are many listeners, the difficulty of getting a good result will also increase many times. You are a beginner, so the best choice is to play it safe and not try to run. If you take a big step and pull a cough, that won't be good."
Bronya was a little anxious; she was genuinely afraid that Bai Qianqu would get carried away after taking the top spot on the new song chart.
Throughout history, countless geniuses have emerged, become arrogant, and then fallen from grace. She doesn't want Bai Qianqu to follow in their footsteps.
Bai Qianqu could also sense Bronya's feelings. He didn't really want to get involved in that war of the minor gods. As a newcomer, he didn't really understand the overall musical strength of this world. Although he had won against Eden once before, he knew that Eden hadn't even exerted its full strength.
The best way to truly understand the talent of musicians worldwide is, of course, to witness a high-level competition.
A war between the major and minor gods is the best choice.
"Don't worry, I know my own limitations. What I mean is, I'm not ready to just sit back and watch the show."
Bai Qianqu's words put Bronya at ease, and a smile returned to her face.
As long as Bai Qianqu doesn't get arrogant, with the company's help, he can at least steadily enter the top ranks of B-level.
A B-level composer in his early twenties is extremely rare, even on a global scale.
With a little more effort and a bit of luck, you might even make it into Grade A!
At least in Bronya's imagination, this is the best development path for Bai Qianqu in the future.
As a professional agent, helping others with career planning is what she excels at.
"That's true. Getting more exposure to big-budget gossip will be good for your future development. Hmm, when the new song charts are updated, let's watch them together, and I'll introduce you to some famous singers and songwriters."
"Thank you very much then." Bai Qianqu thanked her sincerely. It has to be said that since he came to this world, Bronya has given him the most help.
Chapter 57 Novel Platform
"We're friends, it's only right that we help each other."
As the two were chatting, the car arrived at Bai Qianqu's rented house.
Bye-bye! See you tomorrow!
The two waved goodbye, and Bai Qianqu breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Bronya's car drive away.
Today's non-stop work was truly exhausting. After taking a shower upstairs, he sat in a chair and spaced out for a while before picking up a pen and paper and writing out the lyrics and music for "The Reverse Playing of the Pipa".
However, the lyrics of this song
Bai Qianqu couldn't help but laugh out loud. The scope of this diss was too broad. If it were actually released, who knows how many people it would imply against.
The rhyme scheme is the same as X.
A basket of clumsy new words
Marketing relies on bluffing
One sentence and a bunch of people die
Mandarin is a mirror that reveals true nature.
It promotes distorted values.
Fake charity used for whitewashing
One trending topic adds another 100,000 to the appearance fee
Even with a high price tag, he's nothing more than a third-rate rapper with a sham reputation.
