Start with a pop song

Chapter 15 The main mission begins

In the teahouse.

After the waiter brought the brewed tea, Song Dao turned around and went out, closing the door gently. Looking at his senior who had a handsome and tough face and a slightly vicissitudes of life temperament, he suddenly wanted to laugh.

As a senior, the other party was several years older than him, but he seemed a little reserved at the moment.

He was not as active as he was in the previous chat on Xingge. Apart from saying "sorry, junior, I kept you waiting for a long time" when he came over, he didn't know what to say after he sat down.

Song Dao picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said, "Thank you, senior, for casting for me that day."

Hu Wei is actually not that shy and is quite active in front of people he knows.

But the moment I saw this junior, I suddenly felt a little nervous.

The young junior in front of him, who was five or six years younger than him, had a particularly mature temperament.

He can't be said to have a strong aura, but he is very calm.

I felt a little bit puzzled. How could such a mature and steady person be controlled by a gold-digging girl for so long?

People on the internet say that he has been a bootlicker since high school?

Sure enough, people cannot be judged by their appearance.

Everyone is equal in love.

"You're welcome, junior. I felt the same way that day and was speaking from my heart, so you don't have to thank me or regret it afterwards."

There is a very pleasant magnetism in Hu Wei's voice.

This kind of voice is a natural advantage for musicians. It does not require any skills and is highly recognizable.

But at the same time, it is also easy to impose certain restrictions on the singing style.

But as the saying goes, small fire depends on support, big fire depends on luck.

He looked at Song Dao and said, "Don't get me wrong. It's not that I regret spending money, but that video is a little too popular. I'm afraid it will cause you trouble."

"The video went viral, and that song became popular as well, which is not a bad thing for me," Song Dao looked at Hu Wei, "Senior, why are you here today?"

"After listening to that song, I felt that you were very talented, and I had a strong urge to get to know you. Also..."

Hu Wei smiled a little embarrassedly: "I want to get permission from my junior to sing this song in the bar."

"That's it?"

Song Dao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Senior, you are a resident singer in a bar, right? Sure, it's okay even if you don't tell me."

There are many hosts who cover songs online, and Song Dao has no objection to this.

Just sing. If more people sing, it will add more popularity.

In fact, even if some unknown singers use this song for commercial performances, he can't do anything about it.

Not to mention him, even those famous bigwigs turned a blind eye to such things.

Just don’t go too far and don’t tell netizens in the live broadcast room: This is an original song I wrote.

"Thank you very much, junior brother!" said Hu Wei.

Then the two started chatting about music, and Hu Wei gradually opened up.

He talked about his dream of becoming a musician and also shared stories with his girlfriend.

"What kind of money can young people have? We are not the second generation from some awesome family..."

He was very emotional and said calmly: "I had almost forgotten about it, and I thought I had let it go and didn't care that much, until I heard my junior compose this song."

“A good song can resonate with people and instantly bring them back to the scene back then.”

"You are really talented, much better than me. I hope you can keep going on this path."

Song Dao asked curiously, "Senior, you can create music, right? Why don't you try to be an independent musician?"

"Haha, do you think everyone is as awesome as you, and that one song can become an Internet celebrity?"

“There are so few independent musicians who can succeed!”

"And I can't write those things!"

Hu Wei smiled bitterly and said, "I just said that I tried for a few years before, but now that I am nearly 30 years old, I finally realized that I am not cut out for it."

Song Dao: "I have only released this one song."

"Junior brother is very talented! Although I can't write, I understand music!" Hu Wei said with certainty: "You are so young, but you can write a song that sees through love and sees through you. You must have a strong creative ability!"

Hu Wei looked at Song Dao and said, "So I really hope that my junior brother can continue on this path. Singer-songwriters are still very popular in this era."

"Find a good company, package and operate it well, and you will definitely have a chance to become popular!"

"I have approached some famous producers before, but they just looked down on me and ignored me."

These are very strange times.

On the one hand, many songwriters and composers say that there is no room for survival and that music is about to die; on the other hand, people like Hu Wei who truly love music cannot find good partners.

Not to mention some famous songwriters and composers, even if they are not famous, they are unwilling to cooperate with Hu Wei, who is equally unknown.

They try their best to find ways to have their works sung by those who are already famous.

But those who have already become famous either have fixed partners, or work hard to build a singer-songwriter image that can write lyrics, compose music and sing, and the companies behind them are madly operating and supporting them.

So it's very embarrassing.

Without great singers, the status and influence of songwriters will become increasingly lower.

Stuck in a dead loop.

At this moment, the system suddenly sent a prompt.

[Main mission starts]

【Earth Music Culture Communication】

[In addition to developing itself, the host also needs to find singers who are suitable for performing classic songs on Earth to train, or let those suitable retired singers come back.]

[Copyright must be in your own hands, cannot be given to others, and cannot be sold outright]

[Every time a staged task is completed, the host will receive rewards such as treasure chests and reputation]

[The popularity gained by the cooperating singer's songs will be converted into the host's personal reputation, with a ratio of one thousand to one]

[Main quest branch: Cultivate Hu Wei, a young singer who has a dream of music and loves music but is frequently frustrated] [Activation reward: Bronze treasure chest x1]

[When the singer passes the host's inspection, the mission officially starts]

The series of subtitles left Song Dao stunned for a long time.

At the same time, I was a little speechless.

What the hell is this frustrated young man who loves music?

Previously, he thought that the system would display a task because of Lin Fei, but there was no response. Instead, it was activated by Hu Wei.

Is it because we haven’t met?

Or has Lin Fei, who has retired for several years, no longer loved music?
This thought flashed quickly through Song Dao's mind, and then he looked at Hu Wei in front of him.

I thought to myself that senior is really lucky!
But then again, the fact that Hu Wei mustered up the courage to come and see him today just proves the importance of communication.

There are many talented people, but those who are good at communication and talented are often more likely to succeed.

If you hear any big shot say that he is introverted and doesn't like to communicate with others, just laugh it off.

He just doesn't communicate with useless people.

But Song Dao did not say anything directly to Hu Wei.

After all, it was the first time they met.

No one mentioned it.

In addition, the system also said that it is necessary to pass the host's inspection!

Before he fully understands the other person, he will not rashly mention the topic of "I can help you create, let's work together".

I plan to observe for a while.

Anyway, the system just activated a main task because Hu Wei did not give a time limit.

There are no hard and fast rules on what he must do.

The two chatted for a while before Hu Wei stood up and said goodbye.

Just like he said, he really admired the talent of this junior and wanted to come and get to know him.

He is not good at making friends, but he can be proactive when it comes to people like Song Dao whom he admires from the bottom of his heart.

"Brother, come to my place when you have time, I'll treat you to a drink!"

Song Dao smiled and nodded: "Okay, definitely next time!"

The two came out of the private room and went to the front desk, only to find that Hu Wei had already paid the bill when he arrived.

He has a passionate heart for music and is also such a good person.

Song Dao had a good first impression of this senior.

Hu Wei also seemed to be in a good mood. He waved goodbye to Song Dao at the door, scanned a shared bicycle, and rode away.

In fact, he was not in such a relaxed mood.

He could support himself by singing in a bar and the income was not low, but it was too far away from his musical dream!

This is no longer the era where one can be discovered by a great producer just by singing in a bar and then be promoted to a superstar.

Not to mention anything else, even songs like "See Through Love, See Through You" are looked down upon by mainstream musicians.

It is out of reach for him too!
He wanted to discuss a song with Song Dao and ask for cooperation.

But the relationship has not reached that point, and mentioning it rashly will give people a feeling of being rude and abrupt.

The reason why he had this impulsive idea was that his roommate suddenly sent him a message last night.

Asked if he knew his ex-girlfriend was getting married...

"She married a senior executive of a film and television company. She sent invitations to many of her alumni. The wedding is scheduled for late July..."

This news took him a long time to recover.

She is getting married next month?
After more than two years, getting married... is normal.

The two never contacted each other again after the breakup, and he thought that the other party was still being supported by that investor.

I didn't expect to change my home.

As an executive in a film and television company, the conditions must be good.

Of course it doesn't matter.

The important thing is to have good resources in your hands!
Isn't this what she's always wanted?
After singing in the bar, he returned to his rental house alone, drank two bottles of beer, and stayed awake all night.

Today I finally got the contact information of my junior, and I made this choice immediately.

I, Hu Wei, am not willing to just sing in bars all my life!
He wanted to sing a song with Song Dao.

He wanted to stand on a bigger stage and let the woman who once loved him deeply but chose to betray him see with her own eyes that he could do it!
But after meeting, Hu Wei, who had calmed down, immediately felt that he had been a little impulsive.

The junior is a singer-songwriter himself, and has a highly recognizable voice that most singer-songwriters do not have.

The songs you write can be performed well by yourself, and the profits can be maximized!

Theoretically there is no need to sing for others.

After thinking about the matter clearly, he was not too disappointed. It was enough for him to leave a good impression on his junior today.

Let’s talk about the next thing later.

……

After seeing Hu Wei off, Song Dao returned to his residence and immediately opened the treasure chest given by the system when he started the main quest.

"This is the first time a fine bronze treasure chest has appeared. I wonder what song it will give me?"

As the treasure chest emitted a ceremonial light that only Song Dao could see, a line of words slowly appeared in front of him.

What the hell!

Song Dao was stunned.

He didn't expect it would be this song?
