Courtyard House: A Great Musician! Red Songs Resound Worldwide

But if this person knows where he lives, how could he not recognize him?

Besides, I've never even seen this person before!

What's more, he spoke with a heavy Shanghai accent...

Li Chaoyang was absolutely certain that he had never dealt with any southerners in the past few years.

But this person, who clearly looked travel-worn... could it be that he really has something to ask me?

Scratching his head, Li Chaoyang said somewhat awkwardly, "Um... hello, comrade."

"I am Li Chaoyang, the man you are looking for."

Upon hearing this, the bespectacled man's small eyes behind his lenses suddenly widened to almost bursting!

He asked with obvious surprise, "Huh? You're Li Zhaoyao?"

Hearing that heavy Shanghai accent again, Li Chaoyang was speechless and almost rolled his eyes again!

However, he still managed to hold back.

However, he then said with a hint of helplessness, "I mean... this guy..."

"My name is Li Chaoyang, not Li Chaoyao."

"Also, it's 'comrade,' not 'comrade'..."

"You keep saying 'tube' so often, I'd think your name was Rabbit..."

Li Chaoyang muttered to himself, still trying to figure out who this person in front of him really was.

After thinking for a moment, he simply asked, "By the way, comrade, what brings you here?"

"Oh, oh, I'm so sorry, Comrade Li Chaoyang..." he quickly apologized and explained, "I really didn't expect you to be so young, so I was a little surprised. I hope you won't take offense!"

Upon hearing this, Li Chaoyang's expression also became somewhat strange.

Before he could ask any more questions, the man quickly pulled out a work ID from his bag and said, "Comrade Li Chaoyang, my name is Song Chengxiang, and I am a staff member of the People's Record Company."

After a very brief self-introduction...

Song Chengxiang, who claimed to be a staff member of the record company, suddenly looked somewhat helpless and continued, "You have no idea... Comrade Li Chaoyang, our company has been looking for you so hard these past few months!"

"First, we sent you a letter to your school address, but it was returned very quickly."

"After that, another telegram was sent, but no one answered it!"

"Later, our organization specifically asked someone to inquire at your school through various channels."

"That's when I found out you've been assigned to work at the Yanjing Steel Rolling Mill!"

"Well, I happened to be in Yanjing reporting for work, so my unit asked me to go directly to the steel rolling mill to find you. But your colleagues said that you've been focusing on your creative work at home lately and haven't come to work at all!"

"So... I have no choice but to take the liberty of coming to bother you..."

Song Chengxiang rambled on and on, leaving Li Chaoyang completely bewildered.

He took the work ID from the other person and looked at it, but it didn't seem fake.

After returning the documents, Li Chaoyang still asked with some doubt, "Comrade Song...Chengxiang, right...?"

"I don't know... why did your company go to so much trouble to find me..."

"What exactly is it about?"

"And they even sent you all the way from Shanghai to Yancheng, that's just too much..."

Li Chaoyang pondered to himself.

He knew about the People's Record Company, and was very familiar with it.

This record company existed before the liberation and was the first record distribution group in China.

He couldn't remember what his name was before, but it should be next year, which is 63.

People's Records Society was renamed National Record Distribution Company...

Li Chaoyang even owned their first record after the founding of the People's Republic of China...

The title is simply "The Sky Over the Liberated Area".

But... they went to such lengths to find themselves.

Could it be that they want me to write some songs so they can release them on a record?

After thinking about it, Li Chaoyang frowned again.

He had previously learned that this record company released songs...

Aside from making his songs more widely available, there are no other benefits!

In fact, you could say it's all for nothing!

This is especially true now that he is already quite well-known!

Li Chaoyang didn't want to be a sucker and let them release his songs on record for free.

The song "We Are Walking on the Road" was taken without permission and recorded and released everywhere.

That's enough...

If they come asking me for new songs again, that would be really pushing their luck...

He's even planning to collaborate with other organizations on his new songs to try and get some benefits!

After all, although we have plenty of various certificates and vouchers on hand right now, this isn't a long-term solution...

Just as Li Chaoyang was pondering how he should refuse if this person really asked him to sing a song... Song Chengxiang looked around and, seeing no one was around, carefully took out a thick envelope from the crevices of his bag.

Then, with a forced smile, he said, "Comrade Chaoyang, actually... the main reason I came to see you is..."

"I've come to give you money!"

"Uh...give money?" Li Chaoyang was taken aback.

Even after this period of training, my brain has become incredibly powerful.

But faced with this situation, he couldn't help but be somewhat dumbfounded...

Looking at the thick envelope in Song Chengxiang's hand, he felt even more incredulous.

Are there really any government agencies that are this generous these days?

Isn't it usually donated for free...?

Besides, to be honest, Li Chaoyang never even considered it from the beginning.

This thing can actually make money, especially money from government agencies...

The only way he could think of to make money from songwriting was to sell the songs privately to someone at a high price...

But his songs are too valuable; these days, no private individual can afford the price...

So, he really hadn't expected this...

One day, someone actually came to my door with money because of his song...

Moreover, this person works for the People's Record Company!

Seeing that Li Chaoyang was still in a daze.

Song Chengxiang chuckled awkwardly and held up the sex envelope in his hand, reminding him, "Comrade Chaoyang, how about..."

"Please let me in first."

"Then... shall I explain it to you in more detail?"

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, Comrade Song Chengxiang!" Li Chaoyang blushed deeply and quickly stepped aside to let him in. "Look at my own idiot!"

"I haven't had many customers lately, and I completely forgot to invite you in to talk."

"Let's go inside and have some tea before we talk..."

As the old saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face, especially when someone is there to give you money.

Li Chaoyang's attitude naturally changed as well.

After the two entered the house, Li Chaoyang invited them to sit on the sofa. He then brewed a pot of tea before sitting down to have a good chat with this lucky charm who had come from afar.

But as soon as he sat down, the old comrade took out the envelope again and solemnly pushed it in front of Li Chaoyang.

"Comrade Chaoyang, this is the payment for the lyrics and music of your song, 'We Are Walking on the Great Road'."

"It's not much money, nothing compared to the tens of thousands that those great writers have!"

"But at least it's a thousand yuan!"

"Moreover, our (Qian Haohao's) company leaders have said that we will give you a payment every month from now on."

"The payments will continue for a full twelve months!"

"That means a total of over three thousand yuan will be distributed..."

"Of course, this 1,000 yuan is also a summary of the previous three months..."
