I was rebellious by nature, but I ended up becoming a top influencer.

"President Ye!"

Qi Tian stepped forward and greeted him.

Wang Jingjing also addressed him respectfully as "President Ye" instead of "Cousin".

Since this is a formal occasion, using formal titles is more conducive to carrying out the work.

"I heard Qi Tian is going to record his third song. I happened to have some free time right now, so I came downstairs to listen."

Ye Yu's cool voice carried a rare gentleness, which surprised Wang Jingjing. Her cousin was a workaholic, so how did she suddenly have time to listen to the recording of a new song?

Qi Tian was also somewhat surprised, but he still nodded in gratitude: "Thank you, President Ye. Then I won't take up any more of your time. Shall we begin?"

Niu Zhen nodded to a middle-aged man with braided hair and black-rimmed glasses, "Director Li, shall we begin?"

Director Li looked somewhat impatient: "Hurry up, I have an appointment tonight, and who knows when this recording will go on."

Qi Tian handed over the USB drive: "This is the accompaniment."

Director Li plugged the USB drive into his laptop, then casually picked up the sheet music and lyrics Qi Tian had handed him, glanced at them, and then froze: "Who wrote this song?"

As the chief music director of Yihua Entertainment, Li Dayou is extremely arrogant. If Ye Yu hadn't come in person today, he would never have come to record a song for a newly signed artist, especially a song written by an artist who hasn't officially debuted yet.

However, despite his temper, Li Dayou had the confidence to throw tantrums.

He has created at least ten award-winning songs, so when he gets angry, even Niu Zhen has to be careful to deal with him.

There's no way around it; people who make a living through technology are just that arrogant.

He glanced at it casually and realized that the song in his hand was not one of those messy Frankenstein's monsters, nor was it a plagiarized song like a nested doll, but a genuine upbeat light rock song.

"I wrote this, and I hope Teacher Li will give me more guidance."

Qi Tian didn't explain much, but went straight into the recording studio, put the lyrics on the music stand, and then put the headphones on.

He had sung this song countless times in the other world, and could sing it completely with his eyes closed, but he wouldn't be arrogant, after all, this was a recording.

With his advanced singing skills, he gained a deeper understanding and grasp of the song, so he was very confident that he could leave work on time today.

Yes, that's right. Even as an artist, you have to try your best to leave work on time.

Looking at Qi Tian in the recording studio, Li Dayou gave an OK sign and started playing the accompaniment. His previously somewhat impatient expression turned serious, but he still needed to listen to the other person's voice and singing skills.

"Me, who can't hold onto love"

I always just watched it slip away.

Happy people are everywhere in the world.

Why can't I be included?

... "

With a touch of melancholy and hesitation, Qi Tian's voice rang out in the earpiece. Ye Yu, Niu Zhen, Wang Jingjing, and Li Dayou were all wearing monitoring earpieces, quietly listening to Qi Tian sing his new song, "Single Love Song."

……

When Wang Jingjing heard the first line, her heart trembled slightly. For some reason, she felt a desire to protect the young man in front of her.

You can tell from the first listen that Qi Tian wrote this song after his breakup.

The song expresses the pain of unrequited love and repeated hurt, which is heartbreaking.

……

As a top agent in the entertainment industry, Niu Zhen made a general judgment after listening to the intro and the first verse: it was another traditional love song.

I haven't heard songs like this in years; the songs in the music scene nowadays are simply unlistenable.

As a top agent, she was already feeling excited. She had been somewhat reluctant when she was assigned to talk to a junior intern about an artist contract that morning.

When she saw Ye Yu's recommendation of her Kuaiyin account, she immediately realized that this kid had one thing that the trainees in the artist department lacked the most—the ability to generate trending topics.

Xiaohong relies on support, Dahong relies on life.

Are the trainees really that bad?

To be honest, some are just as good-looking as Qi Tian, ​​some have better singing skills than Qi Tian, ​​and some can dance better than Qi Tian.

But these people all lack that little bit of luck to be famous.

Qi Tian has been in the public eye for less than 20 days, but he has already made it onto the local trending topics multiple times. If it weren't for the lack of capital support, he would definitely be a hugely popular internet celebrity by now.

With that, his rise to prominence is unstoppable. If given a few more opportunities, he will definitely experience a massive surge in popularity, and at that time, his old rivals will surely strike swiftly.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Ye Yu, who was sitting in a chair with her eyes closed, listening to the song.

This young female CEO has made numerous moves since taking office, and none of them have failed.

She didn't believe that the president of a large corporation would have the time to sit here and listen to a song being recorded.

It's important to know that recording a song can take anywhere from a few hours to several days. If a singer has problems with their singing skills and their emotions aren't fully expressed, it's definitely a form of torture.

I came to watch the recording of this song myself, firstly to recommend it to Li Dayou, and secondly to show my respect.

Normally, she would never personally oversee such a trivial matter.

Top agents are very busy.

The artists under their management have so many schedules and contracts that they simply don't have time for such trivial matters.

……

Ye Yu sat there upright, even while listening to music, keeping her back straight, which made her long neck appear even more upright and gave her a more elegant demeanor.

"This song is complete!"

After the first verse and chorus were sung, Ye Yu took advantage of the interlude to look at Li Dayou beside her.

Li Dayou had long since lost his nonchalance and arrogance; his eyes shone with boundless light as he muttered to himself.

"Niu Zhen, this is the new artist you signed? Holy crap, her singing skills are enough to crush all the new generation of singers in the music scene right now, and this song is enough to crush most of the songs from the last few years."

"With such a complete arrangement and such a high level of polish, this song doesn't need my help with the recording at all!"

"Boss, I have a feeling you're about to strike it rich! This one song alone is enough to make you a fortune!"

"That was awesome! Is this kid going to get it right in one take? I haven't had enough yet! And why does this kid sing this song without any emotion? It's all technique! Is this a song for showing off skills? That shouldn't be happening!"

……

"Teacher Li, what do you think? Are there any areas that need adjustment?"

Qi Tian felt that something was missing when he sang it for the first time, but he couldn't put his finger on what was wrong, so he had to look to the professionals.

"Hmm, why do you sing without any emotion? This is such a beautiful, sad song, but I can't hear any feeling from you."

Li Dayou looked at Qi Tian with a puzzled expression: "Of course, it's not that you can't sing like this. I've listened to your voice and it's very distinctive. Your singing skills are also quite good, enough to beat many new generation singers."

If you sing it the way you do, this song is also very good. In fact, you've put a lot of thought into the details, using different singing styles for the same theme of "single," "love song," and "scars." Your singing style also varies greatly depending on the meaning and mood of the lyrics.

Well, this kind of singing style that relies heavily on vocal technique will make this song a bit troublesome.
