The Quiet Rise of Entertainment Superstars

Chapter 6 New Song Meets a Good Seedling

At this time, there was a knock on the office door.

"Please come in."

Zhang Dongming walked in with a man. Xiao Yue recognized him instantly. Isn't this the man who went to see the minister after the meeting today? Why did he come to my place?

Zhang Dongming closed the door and introduced Xiaoyue, "This is our Tianyu's singing king Zheng Sikai."

Then he pointed at Xiaoyue and introduced her: "She is our intern arranger Cheng Xingyue."

"Hello!" Zheng Sikai took off his sunglasses, revealing a handsome face with sharp edges, and greeted with a smile.

"Hello!" Xiaoyue replied politely, then looked at Zhang Dongming in confusion. What was going on?

"This is what happened. He recently crossed over to star in a romance drama and wanted to use your song "Green Grass By the River" as the theme song. Since you are not an official arranger for Tianyu, the company has no right to interfere. This matter needs to be discussed with you." Zhang Dongming explained quickly.

"Oh, can I know the plot of that romance drama?" Xiaoyue asked in surprise.

"Yes, I have it with me." Zheng Sikai took out a thick script from his briefcase.

Xiaoyue took the script, asked them to sit wherever they wanted, and started reading the script.

A rather melodramatic romance drama, somewhat similar to the story of A Dream of Red Mansions, which tells the love entanglement between two good sisters who have grown up together and two men.

Xiao Yue asked in confusion: "This drama has nothing to do with Green Grass by the River, why is it used as the theme song?"

Zheng Sikai looked embarrassed and explained, "In the past, we always picked one of the best songs as the theme song for the dramas we filmed, so that the sum of the two would be greater than the sum of the two. We really couldn't find a suitable song for this drama, and your song is the only one that is somewhat related, as they are all about love."

There is such a thing. Xiaoyue looked at Zhang Dongming in disbelief, with an expression that said, "Don't lie to me."

Zhang Dongming smiled and said, "Indeed, there is such an operation. It is difficult for the composer to arrange the music according to the play."

Oh my god, are we so far behind? Xiaoyue was dumbfounded.

After a long while, Xiao Yue spoke: "I can write a song for this drama."

"Really? Is it a song not inferior to "Green Grass By the River"? " Zheng Sikai was so excited that his handsome face turned red. He had finally crossed over to film a drama, but ended up not being able to find a suitable theme song. He had originally wanted to be particular about it, but things took a turn for the better.

Xiao Yue thought for a moment and said, "Well, I'll sing a few lines and you can listen. If they're appropriate, I'll write them down."

"Okay!" Zhang Dongming and Zheng Sikai said in unison.

"I have a dream, but I don't know with whom I can share it. There are so many secrets in it, but no one can understand when I want to tell it. It's getting dark outside the window and the dew is heavy. Tonight the fallen flowers have become a grave. Spring comes and goes without a trace, leaving only a dream." Xiaoyue's singing is lingering and gentle, like crying and complaining, full of emotion.

Xiaoyue finished singing and said, "How about this one?"

"Good, good, great. I didn't expect that your singing, Xiaoyue, is so beautiful, that's great!" Zhang Dongming said with shining eyes.

Oh my, with this voice, you can debut directly.

"This is it, this song is so appropriate!" Zheng Sikai's handsome face flushed with excitement, and he said quickly that it was not easy to find a suitable theme song, and he couldn't miss it.

A smile appeared in Xiaoyue's eyes behind the lenses. Fortunately, her original voice was still in good condition and she didn't mess up the singing just now. She could finally release another song.

"Contract, what do you think of it, Team Leader?"

"How about the same as the previous song? I'm talking about the contract with Tianyu. As for the contract with Zheng Sikai, you can discuss it yourselves." Zhang Dongming instantly understood Xiaoyue's meaning and quickly expressed his attitude.

"That's good!"

"We usually only buy the rights to use the theme songs of the drama. This one is 200,000. How about that?" Zheng Sikai was talking about the price of theme songs in general, but he didn't mean to lower it intentionally.

In fact, Xiaoyue’s current arrangement level is actually too high.

Seeing Zhang Dongming next to him winking at him, it meant that he should agree quickly, so he guessed it wouldn't be a loss.

"Okay, let's sign the contract!"

Ten minutes later, both contracts were signed.

"Give it to you in a week."

After seeing Zheng Sikai off, Xiao Yue looked at Zhang Dongming and said, "This song is called "A Curtain of Dreams". It is more suitable for a singer with a soft voice, preferably a girl."

Zhang Dongming happily put away the contract and said quickly, "Among our Tianyu's third-level singers, there is a sweet singer named Zhang Tianqi. She is actually my distant cousin. I will ask her if she is willing. If she is not willing, then I will find another one among the trainees. What do you think?"

"Okay." Xiaoyue actually doesn't care about the singer's identity, as long as the voice is suitable.

Zhang Dongming immediately went out to make a phone call.

Five minutes later, Zhang Dongming walked in with a petite girl with a cute baby face.

"Xiao Yue, she is Zhang Tianqi, 22 years old, and a third-level singer who follows the sweet route. She has sung four songs so far, and her best result is th on the Newcomer List."

It should be explained here that the official standard for being a third-level singer is that they must have more than three songs, and one of them must be in the top 20 of the newcomer list. If a singer only sings a few songs and ranks very poorly, he or she will be considered a third-rate singer.

It seems that Zhang Tianqi has indeed reached the third-level singer level. Now Xu Mengjie is about to reach the third-level singer level as well?

"Hello there!"

"Hello, I'm very glad that Teacher Yue gave me this opportunity. I also like your song "Green Grass by the River" very much. I have played it on repeat many times today."

When Zhang Tianqi saw Xiaoyue, she had a bright smile on her face. Her baby face had cute dimples when she smiled, which was extremely sweet. She was not inferior to Teresa Teng in her previous life at all, and her figure was a bit like the sweetheart queen Wang Xinling.

Looking at this attitude, it doesn't seem fake. Xiaoyue is very satisfied with Zhang Tianqi's attitude and smiles.

"Thank you for your interest. Can I listen to your audio material?"

"Okay."

The information of third-level singers is generally not open to outsiders, and only the company's official arrangers can view it.

Xiaoyue is not yet an official arranger of Tianyu, so she asked. This can be considered a kind of respect.

Zhang Tianqi took out his cell phone, opened a folder, and handed it to Xiaoyue.

Xiaoyue put on headphones and listened to Zhang Tianqi's audio materials and her four songs. She couldn't help but sigh. She had such a good voice, but she didn't get any good song resources. No wonder her best song barely made it into the top 20 of the newcomer list.

This piece of unpolished jade will be mine from now on. Thinking about all the great songs sung by Teresa Teng in her previous life, it is not a waste to have Zhang Tianqi singing them.
