Start with a pop song

Chapter 22: Fine Gold Treasure Box
The next morning.

Song Dao opened his eyes drowsily and looked at the time. It was just past nine in the morning. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The time agreed with them is in the afternoon, so there is still time.

A young body is good!

After drinking so much, I just need a good sleep.

If it were his forty-year-old body, drinking like this would make him feel uncomfortable for the whole day.

Last night we got a little tipsy at a barbecue stall, then went to a bar and drank several bottles of foreign liquor.

Just like Zhu Xiao said, the young master from Beijing will stop pretending.

The barbecue only cost a few hundred dollars, but the meal of wine cost tens of thousands!
After drinking too much, he admitted that his mother was actually a very famous second-tier singer and is still active on stage.

My father is the director of the Beijing Repertory Theatre.

A true second-generation star.

So the entire second half of last night's drinking party almost revolved around Kang Peng.

Zhu Xiao, in particular, was full of compliments throughout the whole process, and his words revealed that he wanted Brother Peng to guide him.

Kang Peng pretended to be drunk and didn't respond.

Song Dao also always controlled his drinking and stayed sober.

After sending the other two away, he was the last one to be sent away.

Kang Peng smiled and said that everyone would be in Beijing in the future, so if they could help in any way, just let them know.

The sentence that Song Dao remembers most clearly is -

"Brother, my mom said that some of the recent voices on the Internet are a bit unfavorable to you. Fortunately, you didn't come out to receive traffic, but she still asked me to remind you to be careful and it's best to find a company.

You are not popular enough to attract too much attention from those people now, but if you continue to be popular, someone might want to mess with you.

The darkness of the entertainment industry is hard for outsiders to imagine.

If you are performing outside, try not to touch the food or drinks given to you by others.

If you broadcast it online, don't make random comments to avoid being caught.

Anyway, if you need any help from me, just ask!"

These words were from the bottom of his heart, and Song Dao was very moved. He asked Kang Peng to convey his gratitude to his aunt.

Kang Peng smiled and said, "Next time you see my mom, remember to call her Sister Jing. She won't be happy if you call her Auntie!"

Jin Jing, a second-tier singer in Xia country, has had zero scandals in her 20-year debut.

Most of the songs are based on bel canto main melody, with high-pitched and loud voices and full of penetrating power.

Looking at the introduction about this "big sister" in the encyclopedia, including various party videos, Song Dao thought that Kang Peng was really low-key.

During the four years of college, he never revealed a single thing.

If I hadn't graduated, I would probably have continued to keep it a secret.

……

3pm.

Song Dao dressed neatly and left home.

He was still wearing a blue and white plaid shirt, a pair of jeans, and a pair of canvas shoes.

Youthful and handsome.

His face is not the kind of angular, masculine handsomeness, but rather a slightly soft but not creamy handsomeness.

If he wears a pair of glasses, he will be more handsome and elegant.

A bit like the dawn of youth.

She is the type who can make a living by her looks.

In fact, he didn't pay much attention to it. There are already many female fans on the Internet, as well as many aunt fans and mother fans.

People don't care what he sings, they are just fascinated by his face.

Song Daoben thought that since he arrived half an hour earlier, he should be ahead of Lin Fei.

As a result, when he arrived here at 3:30, the queen Lin Fei had already arrived!

I was sitting on the sofa on the first floor and chatting with Yan Yu.

The moment Song Dao opened the door, he was slightly startled when he saw that elegant and bright face.

I subconsciously glanced at the time on my phone.

Yan Yu smiled and said, "You are not late. I asked Sister Fei to come over earlier to chat."

Lin Fei took the initiative to stand up, with a bit of surprise in her eyes, but she controlled her expression well and said with a smile: "So you are the teacher of Shui Ji San Qian, hello, I am Lin Fei."

Song Dao also smiled and greeted the two of them: "Hello Sister Fei, Hello Sister Yu."

"Come and sit down!" Yan Yu said, and went to the tea table to make tea for Song Dao.

"Yanyan kept it a secret and never told me who Teacher Shui Ji Sanqian is. It turns out she was waiting for me here." Lin Fei said with a smile.

"Isn't this a surprise for you?" Yan Yu responded with a smile, "Does it feel like a surprise?"

"Indeed, I didn't expect Teacher Sanqian to be so young."

Lin Fei has a great temperament and is very easy-going, without any airs of a diva.

Lin Fei is more beautiful in real life than in front of the camera.

Most of the videos he had seen were Lin Fei's old ones. Seeing her in person now, he felt that apart from her better temperament, she seemed to have not changed much. She looked a little younger than Yan Yu.

The main reason is that their styles are quite different.

Yan Yu is that kind of beautiful queen, mature and sexy, especially her pair of charming peach blossom eyes, which can give people a soul-stirring feeling when you look at them normally.

Lin Fei is a fairy.

Her skin is as white as snow and her features are as beautiful as a painting.

Sitting there quietly, she looked like a fairy walking out of a painting.

It is no exaggeration to say that such a woman who combines beauty and talent is called the national goddess and the dream lover of three generations of a family.

"I heard from Yanyan that Teacher Sanqian has a song he created but hasn't published yet, and he wants to sing it to others? Can I have the honor of listening to it first?" Lin Fei didn't talk about work right away.

"Sister Fei, you don't have to be so polite. Just call me Song Dao. Haven't you heard that song yet?" Song Dao asked.

Yan Yu came over with the teapot and said, "How can I let others hear it without your permission? Sister Fei is not an outsider, but this is the rule."

Song Dao nodded. Only in this way could people truly feel at ease making music with her.

"Okay, let's go and listen first."

Since you want to join Lin Fei's Feiyang Music and get better conditions, you still have to let people know your strength.

Otherwise, as a newcomer, what can you talk to others about?
Song Dao’s ideal is to get more than 30% as a singer, preferably 40% like Kong Xi.

As a composer, he should get at least 20%. For a new artist who is not very famous, he can accept less in the initial stage.

Through the operation of the company, the pie is bigger, and he will definitely not lose money overall.

When he becomes powerful enough, even if he doesn't say anything, Lin Fei will take the initiative to bring it up.

It’s the same in all walks of life, depending on your ability you can earn money.

It’s just that resources are concentrated in the entertainment industry, competition is too fierce, and everyone is rushing to compete, which leads to many unscrupulous companies madly exploiting newcomers.

In short, before things are finalized, let's see the situation first and then make other decisions. If the conditions cannot be agreed upon, the worst that can happen is to change to another company.

Judging from what Kang Peng said last night, he seemed to be thinking of helping him make some connections.

After all, his mother also has deep connections in this industry.

Seeing that Song Dao agreed, Lin Fei couldn't wait and wanted to go upstairs immediately.

So the three of them went to the second floor.

Yan Yu found some headphones and put them on Lin Fei, then pressed the play button.

Lin Fei sat there quietly, listening to the prelude of the piano music. Her eyes lit up slightly and she glanced at Yan Yu.

Yan Yu immediately revealed a somewhat smug smile.

"We have been sitting opposite each other all night. I am afraid that daybreak will soon arrive."

"I began to understand that our love was going to end."

When Song Dao's slightly low and hoarse voice came through the headphones, Lin Fei showed a surprised expression on his face.

It seems a little hard to believe that this was sung by the same person who sang "Seeing Through" and "Sad City".

There are huge differences in voice, range, and timbre!
With her ability in this field, if Song Dao were to participate in a music variety show like Masked Singer, it would be hard to tell that she is the same person at first glance!

This singing skill... is pretty good!

The "high-end feeling" that I had never felt in Song Dao's songs before instantly came to me with these two lines of lyrics.

No wonder Yanyan praises him so much!

She arrived here early just now. Although Yan Yu did not mention who Shui Ji Sanqian was during the conversation, he talked to her a lot about Song Dao.

She almost suspected that Yanyan fell in love with Song.

After all, he is really handsome!
Now I understand that Song Dao is the Water Strike Three Thousand, and he is really talented!
Lin Fei quickly immersed herself in it.

When the song reached the chorus, her expression became more serious.

——What do I have to argue with you about? What I want to keep you want to forget. All the happiness and pain that belong to you and me are now written off!

What can I use to argue with you? Those who are not in pain are not suffering. It turns out that I am the only one who believes in the end of time when we walk hand in hand.
Song Dao's mellow, magnetic, slightly hoarse voice and extremely rich emotions made Lin Fei's scalp tingle.

What an amazing singing skill!

Also, can a young person who has just graduated from school really write a song like this?

When Shiyilang wrote this song, he was probably in his thirties.

After people are over 30, their perception of life is naturally completely different from when they were in their twenties.

So Lin Fei’s suspicion was not wrong.

But she also knew that there were geniuses in this world.

Dong Hui, who was a gold medal composer at the time, once told her that if there was a godfather-level boss who could support her, her achievements would be far more than just being the queen of the Xiayu region.

"You have a good voice, a wide range, a high degree of recognition, and most importantly, you are well-educated. Your understanding of songs far exceeds that of others. Unfortunately, my ability is limited, and it is difficult for me to write a song that is truly suitable for you."

She was only eighteen years old at the time and was still preparing for the college entrance examination. She could not fully understand what the teacher said.

Later, after being scolded by countless people, she felt wronged and sad, but she finally realized that her song was indeed not good enough.

But what can she do?
Dong Hui helped her contact several godfather-level music industry tycoons, but they were all rejected.

It's not that I look down on her, but I feel she is not suitable.

To quote a godfather-like boss at the time who was quite straightforward and famous for writing love songs: Lin Fei is already very good, and Brother Hui doesn't need to underestimate himself. I believe that if you continue to work together in depth, you will definitely produce more classic songs.

To put it bluntly, Lin Fei was already a queen at that time, at the peak of her career, and with Dong Hui, a gold medal songwriter, behind her, she was not very willing to do something like adding icing on the cake.

It is right to write it well, but what if it goes wrong?

Wouldn't he be laughed at by then: A music godfather, not even as good as a gold medal songwriter...

I can't afford to lose face like this!
That’s why I say it’s inappropriate.

If Dong Hui hadn't had that accident, even if he couldn't help Lin Fei move to a higher level, he wouldn't have completely quit.

The fact that she hasn't made a comeback in all these years has a lot to do with the lack of any good songs that can move her heart.

Top songwriters are not cultivated.

She has been searching too.

Song Dao created this song "The End of Time" alone. Although it is still far from the top works of those godfather-level masters, in her opinion, it is no worse than those classic pop songs.

And how old is he?!
Just graduated from college, at most twenty-four or twenty-five years old.

He is a singer-songwriter who is able to create songs like "Always So Quiet" and "A Lifetime of Aloneness" at such a young age, and his singing skills are so amazing. He is a singer-songwriter who is both a lyricist and a composer.

Not to mention in this era, even if it were placed in the era when gods were fighting, it would definitely have a place!
Lin Fei made the same judgment as Yan Yu almost instantly.

So much so that after she listened to it once, she listened to it again.

I am so excited!
After doing it twice, her eyes were slightly red.

He sniffed hard.

He first looked at Yan Yu: "Yan Yan, thank you!"

Yan Yu smiled and said, "If I want to thank you, I have to thank Xixi first. If she hadn't suddenly had the idea to make an appointment with Song Dao to sing, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet such a talented musician."

Lin Fei nodded, looked at Song Dao, and said sincerely: "Teacher Song Dao, come to our company. You can directly ask for any conditions you want. I will try my best to meet them!"

Song Dao was about to speak when a system prompt sounded suddenly in his mind.

[Main mission starts]

[Main Quest: Let the talented queen who still has her music dream but is ridiculed by others return to the music scene]

[Activation Reward: 1 Gold Treasure Box]

[The mission officially starts after the singer passes the host's test]

There was also some introduction to reputation and rewards at the end, but Song Dao didn't even read it carefully.

I was deeply shocked.

The queen is the queen, the system can actually directly give out a gold-level treasure chest.

It’s fucking fine gold!
