Tokyo: The evil god doesn't want to be the top star

Chapter 390: It is difficult for a clever man to compose a rhyme without a song
"It's not that I'm disturbing you. I brought Xiaohua here uninvited. It was originally a one-sided request..."

Tachibana Ryoko sighed charmingly and told the truth with resentment.

"I see. A new song can be so important to an artist's career development."

After understanding the two people's troubles, Xia Fan seemed to understand something.

"Of course, a prolific music freak like you, Xia Jun, doesn't understand the pain of this 'song shortage'."

"That damned old bald guy Yamazaki, relying on his control of the music club, actually ignored our friendship of many years and dared to turn me down..."

When Tachibana Ryoko thought of the fact that she was ruthlessly rejected by Yamazaki Hiroshi, veins on the back of her clenched fists burst.

"What do you mean you control the music department? I am just a clever man, but I can't compose a song without a song..."

Yamazaki Hiroshi reappeared at the door with a look of resentment on his face.

"Look, this is the 'Customized Single Application' that the top singers in the Burning Department sent to the Music Department in the past two months..."

"Moreover, the last ten or so documents all specifically mentioned 'descending to the mortal world'."

Sitting on the sofa, he threw a stack of documents heavily on the coffee table.

"This, so many...even big names like Miura, Koda, and Triple A Band are so short of songs?"

As the application forms trembled, countless familiar names came into Hoshina Hanami's sight...

Relying on equity investment, resource channel monopoly and Zhou Lao's personal connections, the Burning Group claims to occupy half of the entertainment industry. Together with its many large and small subsidiaries, it also has many first-line singers...

As the song-release season is coming, the "masters" in the music department who have their own studios are too old and too experienced to be hired, so they all set their sights on the "down to earth" who released three hit songs in the first quarter...

Obviously, they wanted to seize the opportunity to invite him to sing a song while his talent was not yet exhausted, his status was not yet stable, and he had not yet been infected by the "laziness cancer" of the music department.

"So, even if you, Tachibana, come to my house and force me to sing, I won't be able to squeeze out even a single drop."

"Mr. Xia, I've put the applications that offer higher prices and have less demanding requirements in the front. Take a quick look and see if there's any that's more compatible with your new song?"

Giving Tachibana Ryoko a helpless look, Yamazaki Hiroshi then flatteringly pushed the stack of application forms in front of Xia Fan...

When companies within the Burning Department request songs from Bethesda's music department, they also have to clearly settle the accounts and give copyright sharing and creative remuneration.

But the prerequisite for achieving good results is naturally to be able to deliver the songs on time.

"President, why don't we leave today and not disturb Xia Jun and Section Chief Yamazaki."

Hoshina Hanami looked at Tachibana Ryoko for help.

"Well, I'll contact a few independent studios I know to see if they have any stock..."

After learning the cruel truth, Tachibana Ryoko had no choice but to give up her original idea.

Even those first-line singers are lining up for songs, let alone the two of them guarding the music club, it would be useless even if they squeezed Hiroshi Yamazaki dry.

"Wait a minute... Although I haven't officially started writing that song yet..."

"But Xingming, you are also looking for a new song. Could you please record a DEMO for me and sing it to see if it suits you?"

But just as Xing Minghua stood up, Xia Fan suddenly made a suggestion.

"what?"

Hiroshi Yamazaki, who was introducing the details of each singer, customization requirements, types of expertise, profit sharing ratios, etc., was petrified instantly.

"Ah? Sing it...see if it suits me?"

"In other words, Xia Fan, you plan to give me the new song you are preparing?"

"But……"

After sorting out the meaning of Xia Fan's words, Xing Minghua's face was full of disbelief.

"Mr. Xia is indeed very loyal. It's settled!"

"I will immediately clear my other afternoon schedule. Xiaohua will see you concentrate on accompanying Xia Jun to record the DEMO!"

Without giving her any time to hesitate, Tachibana Ryoko started making the call with shining eyes.

"Wait, Xia Jun!" "I don't have any prejudice against Miss Xingming, but what should I do with these nominated applications?"

Recovering from the "petrified state", Yamazaki Hiroshi waved his arms in panic, trying to regain the topic.

"But, I remember that in my contract, I have the right to choose a co-singer within the Burning Department for my work, right?"

"Even if I have a few more new songs, I can't complete all these nominations by myself. Please help me reply first."

Xia Fan was very calm and responded with reason and evidence.

"Although this is indeed the case according to the terms of the contract, but, but..."

When it comes to the contract, Yamazaki Hiroshi became speechless, and he regretted deeply that he was blind and did not sign an exclusive cooperation agreement with Xia Fan.

"But, Xia Fan..."

"Company B is qualified to appoint producers and customize songs. They are all professional singers whose single sales reached first-tier standards last year."

"With an artist of this caliber as a singer, your songs will be guaranteed to be well-known and popular, and your chances of becoming famous will be even greater..."

But Hoshina Hanami on this side continued what Yamazaki Hiroshi said.

"For someone like me, a new singer who just debuted and happened to sing a good song and gained some fame..."

"For your new song, it's a kind of wave..."

As she spoke, she lowered her head timidly and her voice became weaker.

"What are you talking about, Hanami... Where is your enthusiasm for participating in the competition?"

"My song 'Sakura' is so popular now, isn't it because of you singing it step by step with your true feelings along the way?"

"I have confidence in you, and you should believe in yourself a little more."

But before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xia Fan.

"President Tachibana, could you please go to my apartment and bring me that electronic keyboard? I'm more comfortable with that one."

"give it to me."

Xia Fan threw the key into the air, and Tachibana Ryoko took it accurately and walked out quickly.

"Anyway, let me write the song first and record it first..."

Without further ado, Xia Fan sat down in front of the top-notch studio computer, opened the music software, and began to move his hands on the keyboard...

"Xia Jun... I... I will definitely try to sing seriously... Wait a minute, I'll go to the side and warm up my voice..."

With tears in her eyes, Hoshina Hanami took the mineral water and ran out.

"Since you have made up your mind, Mr. Xia, I will not hinder you any further. I just hope that the finished product will live up to everyone's expectations..."

"Wait, are you really writing this from the beginning?"

Watching the notes being born from Xia Fan's fingertips and forming an undulating sound track, Yamazaki Hiroshi's eyes widened in disbelief...

Because the previous new songs were all sent to email, this was the first time he saw Xia Fan write a song with his own eyes.

"A monster... an absolute musical monster..."

Over the years, I have worked with so many music producers. Even a master like Yoshihiro Kishimoto would repeatedly play, confirm, and compare each melody before writing it down...

No one has ever been as good as Xia Fanna in writing the melody of a song with movements more smooth than passionate debates with others in online games.

"No matter what the cost, we must make Xia Jun withdraw from that broken group..."

"This is a blasphemy against the peerless musical talent..."

For fear of disturbing Xia Fan's creation, he quietly covered his mouth, but his heart became more resolute in a certain belief.
