Huayu 1995

Chapter 110 Xu Wei, You're Flirting Too (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Did you sell a song to the princess?"

When Zhang Yadong saw Su Chao, it was like seeing a prehistoric gorilla.

"Yes, I've actually already written this song. Please record a demo for me and include it with the delivery."

Su Chao has already provided a clue, saying that he knows Zhang Yadong, and he knows that the princess will definitely ask Zhang Yadong for information after she returns.

After all, no matter how generous a woman is, she doesn't want to be deceived, especially not for no reason.

Unless you make her comfortable.

"Didn't you say last time that you only wrote those two poems?"

Zhang Yadong was puzzled.

He thought it would be a while before Su Chao officially recorded the album.

He was suddenly informed that Su Chaoge had been gathered.

Even more suddenly, the princess called to ask him if he knew Su Chao, and said that she had asked Su Chao to write a song.

If Su Chao asks him to help record a demo, he hopes that Su Chao can make a judgment on the quality of the song as soon as possible.

"Actually, these songs were created a long time ago. I'm quite quick at creating things, but I always feel they're not perfect enough. Since they're not perfect, they're not considered finished..."

Su Chao was talking nonsense.

Zhang Yadong nodded very seriously in agreement:
"Many creators have this problem, but nothing in the world is perfect, so there is no need to pursue perfection too much."

"There's nothing I can do. Our boss is too impatient. These songs that aren't finished have to be used to make up the numbers. Can you take a look at them today? Do you think they're... not good enough?"

Su Chao perfectly embodies what it means to be cheeky.

You could also call it hypocrisy.

He handed the song to Zhang Yadong.

Red Star Production Company appointed Zhang Yadong as his producer. With the experience of recording the single last time, it was easier for everyone to collaborate.

Su Chao may become a producer himself in the future.

But he doesn't know anything right now, so it would be suicide for him to be the producer and in charge of everything right away.

If you don't know something, you have to learn it; even reborn people are no exception.

At that moment, Zhang Yadong was reading a song called "Bored".

Du Fu has a five-character poem called "Melancholy".

There's a line in it, "No money makes me a stranded traveler, but a mirror can cleverly make me look younger," which translates to "I'm so damn poor, so anxious."

This perfectly reflects Su Chao's feelings.

He didn't even dare to look Thor in the eye.

There was nothing I could do; it was the creditor.

Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt has its justification.

"Brother, take your time looking at it. I'll take care of something else first."

Su Chao planned to go find Thor.

"Go ahead and get busy. Your song is really good. Actually, it would be fine to give this one to the princess."

Zhang Yadong really loves the melody of this song, "Bored".

If he were to write it, he would probably write it the same way, and it might not even be as good as Su Chao's.

The princess is also ungrateful.

She actually doubted the quality of Su Chao's work; I'll have to have a serious talk with her about it later.

"Thank you, I want to give her something better."

Su Chao thought to himself, "That's good that you like it, because you were originally involved in the creation of this song."

Su Chao walked up to Thor, but didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at her with a barking dog-like gaze.

At that moment, he seemed to be possessed by Ouyang Feng from the movie "The Eagle Shooting Heroes".

Is it sexy? Is it cool?

"Did you get sand in your eyes, or water in your brain?"

Lin Zhimeng slowly played the notes; if you listened carefully, it should be "Goodbye".

However, it is quite different from Su Chao's "Goodbye".

Su Chao thought it sounded quite interesting.

However, Thor's guitar is a bit of a bully, a bully of Thor's Lei Lei.

It has a rather immoral and scandalous air about it.

"Sister, I might have to pay back the money you lent me a little later."

Su Chao rubbed his eyes.

Another day of failure; it seems my acting skills still need improvement.

He hasn't caught any fish or gained any experience points in the past few days, which is really affecting his performance in front of the rich woman.

"Nobody's pressuring you to pay me back, right?"

Thor thought back and realized that she didn't seem to have made any moves to force him to pay the debt.

The way they pressure people to pay debts is like Huang Shiren's (a notorious landlord in Chinese folklore).

"Then I'll be a few days later, sis. Thank you for helping me record the song. You've worked hard."

It must have been really tough.

A woman who can't get up in the morning and has a bad temper when woken up was asked to stay up all night to help record a song.

It is really……

I have no way to repay you.

Forget it, I won't report it.

"With your level of skill, it's really embarrassing to release an album now. If you have some free time, I can give you some intensive training."

Thor slowly explained his purpose.

"I won't be officially recording for a few days. Right now, I'm mainly getting familiar with the process."

Su Chao was thinking that at worst he could borrow some money to buy singing experience points.

Anyway, we can take advantage of Thor.

The attribute points can be increased to a higher limit. For example, someone who was originally just a second-rate singer could become a national team member if they added more attribute points.

Experience points increase your level, which directly improves your singing skills.

Two hundred points of beginner singing experience will roughly lead to a qualitative leap.

The only thing limiting his development was money. "I'm not a god who can instantly improve your singing skills. It takes time to practice, you know. Come on, sing me a song."

Lin Zhimeng put the guitar aside.

"Sister, you accompany me while I sing, keep playing."

Su Chao brought the guitar back.

The Martin D-28, aside from being a bit too much of a jerk to Thor, is practically a perfect guitar.

For anything that exceeds a certain value, the premium is not in its function.

"Which one?"

Lin Zhimeng also received the lyrics and sheet music for this song.

"The Fragrance of Darkness..."

Su Chao chose Sha Baoliang... no, he chose his own "Dark Fragrance".

After all, we worked together for a while.

There was no deep-seated hatred or life-or-death feud between them.

If Sha Bao Liang calls him "brother," Su Chao would still be willing to let this guy cover the song.

Of course, he is the only original singer.

Thor looked at the score once, and then slowly began to play.

Su Chao stared at Martin D-28.

I think this guitar is absolutely amazing.

The YAMADIE FG-730 is completely unlistenable; I just don't know if I can pay in installments for this Martin D-28.

"Go ahead and sing!"

Thor has almost finished playing his instrument, but Su Chao still hasn't sung.

"Cough cough, you played so well, I was completely absorbed in listening. I always feel that if I sing while you're playing, it's like ruining your music."

Su Chao was talking nonsense with a straight face.

The other musicians nearby were stunned.

That's amazing!

If I were as capable as you, I wouldn't be almost thirty and still single.

Ah, my mind is itching, is it because my intelligence is about to be activated?

I must learn something from this.

Otherwise, even if you meet a girl you like, it's like two mute people sleeping side by side, with nothing to say to each other.

"Stop talking nonsense, are you going to sing or not?"

Thor wasn't buying it.

The musicians on the sidelines chuckled.

No matter how sweet your words, it's all for nothing if you choose the wrong target.

There are at least 80 to 100 men in the industry who want to pursue Teacher Lin, but none of them can get Teacher Lin to even glance at them.

Some people even say that Teacher Lin likes women.

Even a handsome guy like you can run into a wall.

I immediately felt much better.

Su Chao had no choice but to obediently start singing.

Today's main focus was on this adjustment period.

Various processes of adjustment between people and lyrics/music, and between people themselves.

Su Chao is currently working on refining his understanding of the song with the help of Lin Zhimeng.

One song at a time.

That's what a vocal coach does.

Xu Wei also came over; he was invited to sing harmonies.

As for the guitar, his skill level is nowhere near that of Lin Zhimeng.

"By the way, there's something I need to ask you."

Su Chao rested for a while and drank some water, then decided to talk to Xu Wei about something.

"You already have Teacher Lin, and you still want me?"

Since going through thick and thin with Su Chao and facing formidable opponents together, Xu Wei has become much more relaxed.

He rarely jokes with people.

"I have a piece of music here, but I don't have any lyrics. I'd like to ask you to write a version for me."

Su Chao was referring to "Over the Hills".

The lyrics of this song are neither suitable for his composition nor for his performance.

Therefore, he doesn't plan to take it out anytime soon.

But the music itself is fine.

"Why am I being asked to fill this out?"

Xu Wei accepted it, feeling somewhat flattered.

Su Chao's songs are more commercially viable and have a higher chance of being widely sung.

"I'll find you something to do so you won't overthink things all day long."

This was indeed Su Chao's goal.

"I feel much better!"

His friend knew he was having a hard time and went to great lengths to help him.

Although Xu Wei didn't know where Su Chao's kindness came from, it didn't stop him from being deeply moved.

Who would have thought.

During the darkest days of his life, it was a man who accompanied him through them.

"Let's give it a try. I'll compose the music, you write the lyrics, and then we can each sing a version. That would be a collaboration."

Su Chao paid for it, so he has to make good use of it.

The musicians standing nearby were stunned.

Holy crap, Mr. Lin, you're flirting all you want, whether you succeed or not, we respect you as a true man.

But how come you're even flirting with a man like Xu Wei now?

What's even more outrageous is that you did it in front of Teacher Lin.
