My wife is in my arms

Chapter 33 Songwriting

The lyrics of the song "Ask" are very simple.

It is no different from Brother Zong Sheng's usual lyric writing style, but it is precisely these lyrics that can directly hit the softest part of a woman's heart, as if telling a story, telling of a woman's sadness.

At first, Jiang Yiren was just curious.

Just watching and watching, as a professional singer, she instantly caught the meaning of the lyrics. It was about a girl who secretly loved a boy but did not get a response. However, for the girl, this was a state of deep love and emotional pain.

"It's just that women tend to be deeply in love and are always trapped by love..."

Until I saw these two lines of lyrics.

Jiang Yiren's heart seemed to have suffered a huge shock. Without any warning, a layer of mist gradually appeared in her cold eyes.

"If a woman always waits until late at night and gives her youth without regrets, he will be true to you. If so, a woman should never ask too many questions..." Every paragraph and every straightforward lyric moved her.

Subconsciously.

She reached out and wiped the tears from her cheeks, while Zhang Yi next to her seemed to be shocked by the lyrics. As a classmate of Jiang Yiren, she also graduated from a music conservatory and naturally knew how to distinguish the quality of a song.

This lyricist named Li Zongsheng has written about a woman's feelings for a man to the extreme.

Nothing fancy, but it goes straight to the deepest feelings.

"Zhang You, do you know this Li Zongsheng?!"

No matter how well the lyrics of this song were written, or how slowly the two people read it, they still finished reading it within a few minutes. There was no doubt that this was a good song. As long as the composition was good, it could have become a hit.

It's just that such a song was actually produced by a person like Zhang You. It seems that although this thing is not used for serious business, not all of his gambling friends are real gambling friends. There are also real talents hidden among them.

Zhang Yi didn't hesitate too much and said directly, "Well, when can you call him out? Yiren and I will invite him to dinner and discuss the price of this song."

Jiang Yiren took a deep breath, suppressed the emotional fluctuations caused by the lyrics, and looked up at her husband.

"..."

Zhang You didn't know how to answer.

As for Jiang Yiren's reaction, Zhang You was not surprised. You know, Zong Sheng's lyrics have made many female singers cry, such as Xin Xiaoqi in "Understanding" and Wawa in "Across the Ocean to See You".

It is said that when the two female singers first saw the lyrics, they were so overwhelmed by the emotions expressed in the lyrics that they burst into tears.

It is also because of this that Li Zongsheng is hailed as the gold medal musician who understands women the most.

But...he came this time, but Brother Zong Sheng was still suffering from the cold wind because of love and had no chance to come over.

"say something!"

Seeing that Zhang You was slow to speak, Zhang Yi became a little anxious.

She was not worried about herself, but was worried that songs of this quality would eventually fall into the hands of other singers. You know, when a singer sees a good song, it's like a wolf seeing a sheep.

"I'm Li Zongsheng, do you believe me?!"

Zhang You asked tentatively.

Without waiting for Zhang Yi and Jiang Yiren to react, Zhang You couldn't help laughing. As he was laughing, he smelled a burnt smell and quickly said, "The food is burnt."

Zhang Yi and Jiang Yiren also noticed something. Jiang Yiren hurriedly turned around and turned off the natural gas, then poured the burnt food directly into the trash can. After doing all this, she did not rush to continue cooking, but looked at Zhang You again.

From this point alone, it is not difficult to see Jiang Yiren's strong desire for this song.

"Don't worry, I promise to sing for you. I know Brother Zong Sheng very well. We're friends, very good friends."

Zhang You was also troubled by the fact that a good thing had been turned into something stupid. However, he could only say this now. After all, no one would believe him if he said that he was Li Zongsheng!

Plagiarizing and copying the lyricist's name as well is kind of stupid and cute.

“Is it really okay?!”

Zhang Yi was still unsure.

After all, Zhang You, a gambler, was unreliable, and as for Li Zongsheng's character, no one knew... What if I took his song and released it as a single, and he came out again?!

"If I say it's okay, then it's okay. Of course, I have to pay you. Give me the money and I'll give it to you. I'll also ask you to sign a copyright authorization. As for the price..."

Zhang You hadn't finished speaking yet.

Jiang Yiren, who had been silent all this time, raised five fingers without hesitation, and then crossed the fingers of her left and right hands. The meaning was very clear, and Zhang You was stunned.

Half a million.

This price is not low.

You have to know that even if Brother Zong Sheng came in person, he would only be responsible for composing the lyrics and producing a song for about two million. The lyrics alone would probably cost about this price.

After all, Fang Wenshan's words are worth tens of thousands of gold, which is already the most expensive in the circle.

Now Jiang Yiren directly offered 500,000, which was really... a bit generous. After discussing the business, Jiang Yiren continued to cook. Zhang Yi glanced at the living room, turned to her and said, "I really didn't expect that your husband, a gambler, could know a lyricist of this level. I wonder if this Li Zongsheng only wrote this song or many songs!? I have never heard of such a person in the circle. I guess he usually keeps a low profile. This time he happened to be met by your husband. Such a talented person is actually willing to pay attention to someone like your husband. The world is really full of wonders."

Even though she is now pursuing a career in acting, as a graduate of a music conservatory, Zhang Yi has gained some understanding of the music scene over the years. Unlike her fans, when she hears a good song, she will subconsciously look at the lyricist and composer.

But this Li Zongsheng was someone she had never heard of or seen before.

That's why Zhang Yi was so sure that this was a gambler who had met a great talent. As if he had thought of something, Zhang Yi hurriedly said, "Yiren, is there a possibility that your husband told Li Zongsheng about your relationship with him, so he wrote the song specifically based on your relationship? Otherwise, the song wouldn't be called "Ask"."

Now.

Zhang Yi no longer thought about the fact that Zhang You was Li Zongsheng.

Totally impossible.

If I really want to choose a stage name, I won’t choose it the same as my real name.

Especially Zhang You, she was no stranger to him. If he was good at fighting, Zhang Yi had no doubt that he could beat up two or three women, but forget about writing songs. If he really knew how to write, he wouldn't have been doing nothing for so many years.

"We have to find a way to get your husband to ask this Li Zongsheng out. If he can write one good lyric, he can probably write two. I have a strong feeling that this Li Zongsheng might be one of those top-notch songwriters who would shock the music world if he became famous. It's a pity that he can't compose music... No, I'll ask your husband for you later. If he can still compose music, we must make friends. It's better to build a good relationship with him before he becomes famous than after he becomes famous."

Zhang Yi’s analysis is very logical.
