My wife is in my arms

Chapter 579 Accident 1
With mid-March approaching.

After airing for some time, "Special Voice" has launched its singing competition, which, unlike previous recordings, will be broadcast live this time.

To this end, the TV station also signed a broadcasting agreement with a short video company.

Two days ago, the participating singers learned the rules of the game. This time, instead of each person singing one song, each person will sing two songs, which is somewhat different from the original guess.

However, this did not affect Zhang You much. On the contrary, when they heard that "Special Voice" was going to be broadcast live, the other singers, apart from Zhang You, seemed very nervous. This was inevitable. If there were problems with the recording, they could just do it again. But it's different with a live broadcast; there is no chance to do it again.

Even the slightest flaw will be magnified by the media and fans, which will affect their career development. However, this tension is relative, after all, these are professional singers who have been on stage countless times.

"How's the signal?!"

Director Ning asked into the walkie-talkie.

soon.

A voice responded from inside, saying, "Full signal strength. We've tested it multiple times, and there are no problems whatsoever."

Relieved to receive a reply, Director Ning went back to his other tasks. Meanwhile, in the backstage dressing room, Jiang Yiren, dressed up, sat on a soft leather sofa with earphones in her ears, listening to the two songs she was about to sing: "Red Bean" and "Orchid Grass".

Originally, "Orchid Grass" was meant to be reserved by her husband for their daughter, Xiao Zishan, but as the live broadcast of "Special Voice" was extended and the number of songs increased by one, she decided to sing it herself.

Bai Li was also looking at the lyrics. Even though there would be a teleprompter on site, she had caused a live accident once because there was a lot of noise coming from the teleprompter during her performance. Since then, she has always chosen to memorize the lyrics before singing.

Although it was a bit of a hassle, it prevented any disruptions.

Between reading the lyrics, she would occasionally glance at Jiang Yiren. Even though "Encounter" had sold over four million copies on the day of its release, she really didn't expect the song to become such a phenomenal hit.

Now you can hear this song everywhere, whether you're shopping in a mall or taking a taxi.

As of last night, the song had been purchased more than 30 million times. Such data... even though she had expected it, it still felt unreal when it actually happened. You know, since her debut, even her representative works have never achieved this level of success. The key is that the song is still available online.

Seriously... because of this song, she has been eating less lately. Every time she thinks about it, she feels a pang of regret. The worst part is that when she offered another four million to buy the song from Zhang You, the song had already been reserved by Tianyu Entertainment.

She wanted to spend money, but no one gave her the chance.

Last night, when she was chatting with Tan Yao, she heard from her that she and Lan Xiao planned to jointly invest money to buy songs from Zhang You privately, but he refused.

Yan Zhong glanced at Bai Li.

He had truly seen such foolish women before, who wouldn't even accept a song of "Encounter" quality. Now, she could only watch enviously as Jiang Yiren made a fortune with "Encounter."

in fact.

Even though the song "Encounter" is so successful, the money the singer earns is limited. But good songs, like actors starring in good films and television shows, can generate a lot of added value.

Just like Jiang Yiren, he heard that with the huge success of "Encounter", several brands have taken the initiative to contact her to be the spokesperson for their products.

Income from endorsements is only one type of income.

There's also the price of commercial performances. Right after the Lunar New Year, Jiang Yiren's asking price for a commercial performance was only one million, but now it has doubled. Even so, it seems that Jiang Yiren has turned down performances for her concert at the end of the month. Especially since everyone in the industry knows that Bai Li is a famous bag-buying fanatic. While others buy luxury bags one by one, she's different. Once she enters a bag store, it's like the bags are free; she can buy several at once. She's willing to buy bags, but not songs. It's really... you can't argue with that.

It's not that I'm afraid women like to shop, it's that I'm afraid women don't look at the price when they buy things.

Thinking of his wife, a look of despair flashed in Yan Zhong's eyes. His wife was even worse off than Bai Li! At least when she bought a bag, she could see the contents, but when it came to stocks... she had nothing.

"Good evening, audience members and viewers at home. Welcome to 'Special Voice,' sponsored by Changkuai Beverages, Quzhou Cellar, and Happy Potato Chips. I am your host, Zhang You. The highly anticipated singing competition is about to begin, and I believe that every contestant on 'Special Voice' will bring you a top-notch audio-visual feast tonight."

There are quite a few opening remarks today.

Zhang You glanced at the cue card and then said, "Thank you to the exclusive broadcasting platforms of 'Special Voice,' Aishua APP, Maoyan Video, Orange TV, and strategic music platforms for their strong support of 'Special Voice.' Now, please welcome our first talented male singer, Mr. Hai Qing."

The stage lights dimmed.

The central lift slowly rose, and Mr. Haiqing, dressed in a black shirt, appeared on the stage.

The gentle sound of the guqin rang out through the stage's sound system. Zhang Yi sat on her sofa at home, eating fruit while watching TV. In her office, Lin Bao'er was also watching today's live performance of "Special Voice" on her phone.

As soon as Haiqing's voice rang out, his fans immediately screamed.

Zhang You listened quietly.

really.

Pressure is a motivator, and today Teacher Haiqing's control over the song was much better than during the recording.

"Twenty million people watched online."

immediately.

Zhang You heard Director Ning's excited voice through his earpiece, but the voice had barely faded when Zhang You heard Director Ning's questioning voice, followed by a questioning tone as if something major had happened: "What do we do? It's a live broadcast, how do we fill the time gap between the two songs?!"

There was no more sound, and Zhang You didn't care. No matter how big the problem was, as long as it didn't involve him and Jiang Yiren, it didn't really concern him.

Moreover, regardless of the outcome of today's live broadcast, Jiang Yiren will choose to withdraw from the recording of the next season of "Special Voice".

As for him... as long as the production team offers a sufficient price, Zhang You wouldn't mind continuing to be the host, since the job is relatively easy anyway.

As soon as Teacher Haiqing finished singing this song, the stage lights immediately started shining, and the next song began. At this moment, Director Ning's voice came through Zhang You's earpiece.

"Zhang You, hurry backstage!"

Hear this.

Zhang You quickly went backstage. When he arrived, he saw not only Director Ning, but also the deputy director and Xu Handong, the chief planner of "Special Voice". The group was anxiously discussing something.
