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

Wang Jingjing asked nervously, "What trouble?"

Ye Yu chimed in softly, "It sounds good but is difficult to sing, and it's not easy for the general public to spread. In other words, it's popular but not commercially successful."

Li Dayou gave Ye Yu a thumbs up: "President Ye's sensitivity and understanding of music are in no way inferior to mine."

This song requires some singing skills and has a certain barrier to entry for the average person, but its merits outweigh its flaws, and it's sure to become a hit.

Hearing that even the usually arrogant Li Dayou was flattering Ye Yu, Niu Zhen realized even more how sharp the new president's judgment was.

Qi Tian nodded, but instead of explaining, asked, "Teacher Li probably hasn't heard my other two songs yet, has she?"

Do you have any other songs?

Li Dayou looked at Niu Zhen in surprise, only to see Niu Zhen shrug helplessly: "President Ye told me not to tell you, that you should listen to Qi Tian's new song first, and then listen to the other two, so as not to affect your judgment of him."

"Hurry up and take it out."

Li Dayou eagerly reached out to Qi Tian, ​​who turned on his phone and handed it to Li Dayou.

First came "Can't Help Falling in Love," a classic love song that immediately caught Li Dayou's attention. When he heard Qi Tian's slightly hip-hop folk singing style, he couldn't help but be amazed again.

"You've got something special, kid. This song is above average, on par with your 'Single Love Song'."

Qi Tian nodded, then opened his own book, "Fairy".

The moment Li Dayou heard the suona horn, he was completely dumbfounded: "What is that?"

Everyone burst into laughter, and even Ye Yu, who was usually aloof, couldn't help but smile.

Li Dayou forced himself to listen on, but the more he listened, the more unacceptable he felt: "This is rebellion! What kind of rock is this? It's nothing compared to your 'Single Love Song'. Your 'Single Love Song' can definitely be called gentleman rock. This piece of crap 'Fairy' is simply a defilement."

Now I understand why Mr. Ye wouldn't let me hear this song first. If I had heard it, I definitely wouldn't have come to record it for you!

Seeing Li Dayou's distraught appearance, everyone burst into laughter. Qi Tian laughed and said, "Why don't you listen to it again? Well, you can't really understand this song 'Fairy' after just one listen."

"What do you mean? Me, a top-tier producer, can't understand a song after listening to it only once?"

Li Dayou's arrogance flared up again, and he threw the phone back at Qi Tian, ​​saying, "Don't sing this kind of rubbish anymore, it's too low-class!"

Qi Tian reluctantly put away his phone and explained, "My style might not be very consistent. Sometimes it can be a bit strange, and sometimes it can be a bit more orthodox. So, I don't expect this song 'Single Love Song' to be very popular. But I believe that this song will definitely become a must-listen and must-sing song for Singles' Day in the future."

Wang Jingjing patted her forehead speechlessly. This guy is at it again. He only feels happy when he has to add some fancy moves to every song.

Niu Zhen's eyes immediately lit up: "You're something else! I feel like you know better than me how to build a persona!"

Ye Yu immediately realized that Qi Tian's idea was very likely to become a reality.

"Popularity was important in the CD, cassette, and radio eras, but it's less important in today's short video era. The more crucial factor is whether it can become part of Generation Z's pop culture. A love song that represents the pain, loneliness, and resentment of someone who has just broken up will become everyone's first choice for listening to music."

The fact that this song was able to secure a place in the golden decade of love songs demonstrates its strength.

Qi Tian knew perfectly well that while "Single Love Song" held a high status, its popularity was relatively low. The key reason for this was that the song required a high level of breath control, leaving almost no room for breathing. As a result, many people who liked the song could only sigh in frustration because it was difficult to sing it completely.

That's what makes this song so special.

It seems simple, catchy, and easy to sing, but only those who sing it truly know its secret.

It's so hard to sing!

"Okay, okay, you've convinced me, but I still suggest trying to incorporate some emotion. After all, this song contains both sadness and inspiration. A singing machine without emotion might break people's dependence on emotion, but it's too highbrow and only makes you entertain yourself in your own little world."

Li Dayou unusually offered Qi Tian some advice: "Songs are for conveying emotions; songs without emotion won't go far."

Qi Tian nodded, then went back into the recording studio. He remained quiet for a few minutes, allowing himself to fully immerse himself in the emotions of the song.

The choice of this song as the third song is impossible without any emotion involved.

Last night and this morning, I kept bringing up those memories of my first love. If they didn't evoke any emotion, I was just fooling myself.

So there was a personal reason for choosing this song; otherwise, there were a few other songs that would have been more suitable for the short drama "God of War," such as "Over the Top," "You're Ruthless," and "Faith."

When recording "Can't Help Falling in Love", he was just looking for the sweetness of love. However, the emotional complexity of "Single Love Song" is far greater than that of "Can't Help Falling in Love". To sing it well, he had to relive the feelings he had during the time of heartbreak.

……

Just as Qi Tian was getting into the mood for the second take, a few people walked in from outside the recording studio.

The man at the head of the group was very handsome; he was Ning De, a second-tier star under Yihua Entertainment.

A few days ago, he wanted to ask Li Dayou to record a song for him, but Li Dayou declined on the grounds that he was busy. Just now, he received news that Li Dayou is currently in the recording studio recording songs for others, which made him furious.

Someone actually dared to compete with me for Li Dayou?

Don't you know you've had this reservation for a long time?

"Ningde, don't rush over there yet. Let me go check the situation first!"

Following closely behind him was his agent, Wang Fengying. Wang Fengying was in her early forties and could be considered a veteran of Yihua Entertainment. She knew very well that every artist in the company had a different background, and even some trainees might be the biological sons of some big capital tycoon or shareholder.

Therefore, Wang Fengying believes there must be a reason why resources were taken away. Otherwise, no one would deliberately disrespect Ningde, since Ningde has powerful backers in the company and has already reached the threshold of first-tier status, making him a rising star in the entire company.

"What's the point of asking? Why don't we just go and see for ourselves?"

Ning De was seething with anger. He had recently been assigned to try to pursue Ye Yu, the president of the group, but he was rejected several times without any remorse. Although the rejections were not made in front of outsiders, it still made him lose face.

Isn't this new president a bit too arrogant?
