Chapter 5 The Kind and Lovely Big Duck
He knew that the subscription revenue sharing model was better; as long as the song was released, he would get money from every subscription. But given the current situation, he urgently needed the money and really couldn't wait!
"Forget it, I'll just sell the copyright to this song."
Upon hearing Bai Qianqu's words, Bronya advised, "Your song is of very high quality, and you're sure to get a lot of subscriptions in the future. Choosing subscription revenue sharing is actually more cost-effective."
Bai Qianqu shook her head and said with a wry smile, "I'm short of money lately."
Upon hearing this, Bronya understood that some composers, when short of money, would indeed choose to sell the copyright directly, as it was a quick way to make money.
Bronya opened her mouth, then suddenly asked, "How much money do you need? If it's not much, I can lend you some privately."
Upon hearing this, Bai Qianqu looked at Bronya with great surprise. He and Bronya had only met for half an hour, yet she trusted him so much.
Bronya smiled: "Don't overthink it. I just think that with your talent, you will become famous sooner or later. Although I don't understand why someone with your talent would be short of money, I know that this is only temporary. You will definitely succeed in the near future, and I look forward to it."
Bai Qianqu gave Bronya a deep look, then his smile faded and he said seriously:
"Thank you."
Feeling a little embarrassed by Bai Qianqu's stare, Bronya quickly coughed twice and said, "Then it's settled, you have to come to Anti-Entropy tomorrow to sign the contract."
"I will definitely come." Bai Qianqu readily agreed. As he spoke, he suddenly asked the waiter for paper and pen, quickly wrote something down, and handed it to Bronya.
Bronya took it with a puzzled look, and her eyes widened immediately.
This is actually the melody and lyrics of "Sorrow"!
Bronya looked up at Bai Qianqu in disbelief. With these things, she could find a singer and start recording almost immediately!
If you encounter a wicked person who steals the song and deliberately tries to cheat you, Bai Qianqu will be completely helpless and won't get a single penny! Going to court won't help either!
Bai Qianqu smiled and said, "Trust is mutual. If you trust me, I will naturally trust you too."
Just kidding, Bai Qianqu knows Ya Ya's character perfectly well!
Kindness, sincerity, cuteness, beauty—DaYaYa possesses almost all the wonderful qualities! What could he possibly worry about? He's not worried at all about the song being swallowed up!
But Big Duck had no idea that Bai Qianqu knew the color of her underwear, and she was even a little touched!
It's rare to see someone so genuine and sincere in the entertainment industry these days.
People who are both talented and virtuous are especially rare!
At this moment, Bronya couldn't help but look at the boy in front of her with newfound respect.
She didn't say much, but carefully put the paper away.
After exchanging contact information with Bronya, Bai Qianqu left the coffee shop. With the 10,000 yuan that Bronya lent him, he no longer needed to work temporary jobs. His immediate priority was to figure out how to use the system.
After all, he's about to become a composer at Anti-Entropy, and he'll definitely have to produce more excellent songs in the future, otherwise he'll really be letting Bronya down.
Bai Qianqu's personal assets have now reached a rare ten thousand yuan, which makes him very happy. He is now a true "ten-thousand-yuan household" (a term used to describe someone with ten thousand yuan in savings), considering that his savings have never exceeded ten thousand yuan before.
Moreover, after the first song ended, he successfully completed the system task and received the system reward: ten chances to draw a prize.
Back in her rented apartment, Bai Qianqu took a shower before opening the system.
Bronya previously stated that with the quality of "Sorrow," it could easily have made it into the top ten of the new song charts, making it more than enough to be her debut song.
Songs of this quality are usually reserved as trump cards by composers and are rarely used in everyday life.
But Bai Qianqu didn't care; he had plenty of trump cards and wasn't worried about running out of them.
Moreover, this song "Sorrow" has already been sung in front of so many people in the bar, so it can hardly be considered a secret weapon.
Therefore, Bai Qianqu plans to make "Xiaochou" her debut song as a composer!
Meanwhile, Bronya returned home. She was now living with Seele in a luxurious villa. As soon as she entered, a soft body rushed into Bronya's arms.
"Bronya, you're back!"
The girl with snow-white skin and ocean-like eyes hugged Bronya tightly, rubbing against Bronya's chest as if she were being affectionate.
"Alright, Seele, stop fooling around." Bronya affectionately ruffled Seele's hair. "Bring your guitar tomorrow, and I'll introduce you to someone."
"Who is this person that Bronya is taking so seriously?" Seele asked, a little envious.
"A very young and talented composer, whom I met by chance at Himeko's bar today."
"There are too many talented young people, what's so special about that?"
On the other side of the villa, another girl emerged who looked exactly like Seele, except that her hair was black and red, her eyes were blood red, and her expression was somewhat fierce.
"Hill!" Seele called out with a hint of reproach, "Bronya's admirers are definitely extraordinary."
"Okay, okay." The girl called Hill shrugged. "Whatever, I'm just a keyboard warrior anyway. Let's go check it out together tomorrow."
“No need for tomorrow.” Bronya took out a piece of paper with the lyrics to the song written on it from her pocket. “This is what you’re going to play tomorrow. Let’s familiarize yourselves with it tonight.”
"Huh? He actually gave you the song?" Hill was quite surprised. "Is this guy stupid? Isn't he afraid of getting ripped off and not getting a single penny?"
"You talk too much." Bronya tapped Hill on the forehead. "Are you going to watch or not?"
"Look, look!" Hill quickly leaned closer and examined the paper closely.
Seele and Hill are both excellent musicians, and they quickly recognized the uniqueness of this song.
"One cup to the rising sun, one cup to the moonlight; one cup to my hometown, one cup to the distant land."
"The melody is very simple; anyone with a little knowledge of composition could write it. But these few lines of lyrics are so touching; they're so well written!"
"Is this really a song that a young person could write?"
Seele and Hill exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock and disbelief in each other's eyes.
"This song is good enough to compete for the top spot on the monthly chart!" Seele murmured to herself.
Bronya nodded in agreement: "That's right, I think so too."
"Could it be that someone else wrote it and gave it to that young man to sing?" Hill had reason to suspect this.
Chapter 6 The Arrival of the Lucky One
Bronya shook her head: "I think it must have been written by Bai Qianqu himself, otherwise he wouldn't have sung it so perfectly. A large portion of the audience cried when they heard it."
"That's so exaggerated?" Hill didn't believe it. Could a song really make someone cry?
Bronya chuckled twice: "You'll see when you see the live recording tomorrow."
Seele and Hill exchanged another glance, both filled with curiosity about the boy named Bai Qianqu that Bronya had mentioned.
In Bai Qianqu's rented room, he was about to take a bath and burn incense—well, there was no incense, he just washed himself clean and lay on the bed, ready to have some fun—
lottery.
"System, begin a ten-pull!"
The system gave him the chance to win a prize the moment he completed the task. He waited until he got home and took a shower before he started drawing. In Bai Qianqu's opinion, this was what they called a sense of ritual.
[We're drawing a prize for you!]
In an instant, ten orbs of light appeared before Bai Qianqu's eyes. However, eight of them were white, while only two orbs of light emitted a purple glow and a dazzling golden glow!
Congratulations! You have won the song "The Wind Rises"!
Congratulations! You have won the game Angry Birds!
Bai Qianqu rubbed her eyes, unable to believe what she was seeing.
One purple and one gold?
When did my luck become so good? Back when I was doing gacha pulls, didn't I always get the pity pull after 80-something pulls?
Is this a sign of good fortune?
The purple prize is the song "The Wind Rises," an adaptation of the song "Yakimochi" written and sung by Japanese singer Yu Takahashi. However, the song was taken down shortly after its release due to copyright issues, and it was only after Yu Takahashi personally guided the recording and singing that it was re-released.
This song is of very high quality. It won the Golden Melody Award on the New Song Chart upon its release and later won the Chinese Golden Melody Award. Within just two minutes of its release, it garnered over 999 comments, over 10,000 comments in 58 minutes, and over 100 million plays in 25 days.
In addition, the song topped the Rising Chart for 4 days, the New Song Chart for 18 days, and the Weekly Hot Song Chart.
It's a truly chart-topping hit.
Needless to say, the gold prize is Angry Birds. Almost everyone knows this game. As a casual puzzle game, it achieved great success as soon as it was released. The game has a simple plot, requires no learning, and each level takes less than a minute, allowing people to relieve stress in their spare time.
It was even hailed by Newsweek as the world's first mobile game to achieve true mainstream success.
Interestingly, Angry Birds was originally developed by three students who founded their own company called Mihoyo (scratch that), or Rovio.
However, unlike miHoYo's three lucky winners, Angry Birds was their 52nd game.
That's right, other companies made 51 games and failed, while miHoYo only made a few before darkness fell.
Ahem, getting back to the main topic, Bai Qianqu looked at the reward she had received and was immediately invigorated!
This harvest was amazing! The system is fantastic!
They absolutely have to give them a reward!
"Listen to me, thank you. Because of you, the four seasons are warm."
System: Stop singing, or the machine will crash.
After the initial excitement, Bai Qianqu quickly calmed down and frowned.
As for the songs, that's easy to say, since Entropy is a music producer, so recording them will be very convenient.
However, they couldn't make games because they had absolutely no experience in game development.
Why don't we find an outsourcing company to do it?
Bai Qianqu rested her chin on her hand and thought for a moment, then decided against it; she felt more at ease making her own game.
The system has now given him all the game code for Angry Birds and the materials needed for the production process, but making a game is expensive!
That's right, it's burning money!
Whether it's hiring programmers, purchasing necessary production tools, or even platform release and post-release promotion, it all costs money!
Bai Qianqu was in a real bind. She had even borrowed money from Bronya to pay her rent, so where was she going to get the money to make games?
"Ugh, this is annoying. I'll put it off for now and make enough money by releasing songs before making games."
After making up her mind, Bai Qianqu turned off the lights and went to sleep.
The next day, Bai Qianqu finished washing up and headed to the location of the Anti-Entropy Company early in the morning.
