Huayu 1995

Chapter 301 Harvest Season (Seeking monthly votes at the end of the month)
After his meeting with Chen Musheng and Chen Peihua, Su Chao didn't even have time to have a meal with them.

I made an appointment with Lin Xi for lunch.

In March, Lin Xi had lost a lot of weight, his hair was messy, and he didn't seem to have shaved.

The man he liked didn't want him.

In addition, he has been unable to write high-quality lyrics, so he has had a very difficult six months.

He's showing signs of neurasthenia.

The psychologist advised him to stay relaxed and avoid the source of his illness.

Unfortunately, he couldn't do it.

The source of the disease... has come again.

And he even brought a beautiful girlfriend with him.

It was as if they were deliberately trying to puncture his lungs, deliberately trying to make this heartbroken person suffer.

Logically speaking, he could actually like Su Chao, after all, Su Chao is so talented.

Unfortunately, Su Chao was the source of his nightmares.

He felt a chill run down his spine whenever he saw Su Chao, always feeling that this guy would come up with another work that would shatter his confidence and make him question his life.

In fact, it does.

Su Chao didn't waste any words and directly took out the cassette tape and his personal device.

"Mr. Lin Xi, I've written a few lyrics and would like to discuss them with you."

Lin Zhimeng looked at Su Chao, then at Lin Xi, confused. This was the first time she had come with Su Chao to meet Lin Xi, her "friend".

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she always felt that Su Chao's smile was malicious.

This kid must be hiding something bad.

However, she had already put on tinted glasses, and even if Su Chao did something bad, she thought Su Chao did it well.

The moment she woke up and saw Su Chao, she felt full of energy for the day.

Being with Su Chao brings a subtle sense of anticipation and excitement.

Then I wanted to stick by his side like candy.

I want to follow you wherever you go.

Lin Xi lowered her eyes and remained silent for a moment before numbly accepting the cassette tape and Walkman.

He pressed the play button, but for some reason it didn't work.

Su Chao kindly helped him out.

Suddenly, the sound of music filled my ears, coming from afar and striking straight to my soul.

Su Chao and Lin Zhimeng ate almost the entire meal. If it weren't for the silent Lin Xi sitting there, it would have been no different from a date between a young couple.

March is the harvest season for Lin Xi.

There are three songs in the store: "The Last Blossoms," "Hypnosis," and "A Hundred Years of Solitude."

In addition, there is the Cantonese version of "One Hundred Years of Solitude," titled "Watching Over the Wheat Field."

The discount this time was a bit small; the three songs cost nearly 200,000 yuan.

In order to prevent Lin Xi from writing good songs, Su Chao didn't care and bought them all.

Anyway, the princess has money.

If it sells for 600,000, you can definitely make 400,000 in profit.

Unfortunately, while song prices have gone up, fewer people can afford to buy them.

Buying just two of Su Chao's songs would cost the entire album's production budget to be in the millions; that's the kind of money only superstars have.

However, adding the previous 950,000, the total is 1,350,000, which is enough to buy a luxury car.

Su Chao plans to get a seven-seater minivan and an Audi A6.
The A6 is high-end and very deceptive.

In addition, Su Chao needs to keep some money for making movies. The original total global box office of "Phone Booth" was close to one hundred million US dollars. Even if Su Chao uses a Hong Kong crew and cuts the box office to one-third, it would still be thirty million US dollars.

It's an absolutely risk-free and profitable business.

Su Chao needs to secure a sufficient share to protect his interests.

After dinner, Su Chao and Lin Xi talked about these songs.

They all said they came to talk about songs, so they couldn't just pretend to be something they're not.

We can chat for a few minutes and then use the same excuse next time.

After their conversation, Su Chao left with his girlfriend, completely satisfied, leaving behind a heartbroken Lin Xi and a table full of leftovers.

The restaurant faces the square.

People were hugging in the square.

It was Su Chao and Lin Zhimeng who had just left.

Lin Xi looked at them, his anger burning inside him, making him feel like he was about to cry.

"What are you crazy about?"

Lin Zhimeng's cheeks were even more vibrant than if she had applied blush.

She was very reluctant for Su Chao to be affectionate in public like this.

It's so embarrassing.

Even if Su Chao let go of her now, she was too embarrassed to look up.

She just nestled in Su Chao's arms.

You can clearly feel the boy's firm muscles and the special body temperature of a man.

"Lin Zhimeng..."

Su Chao slowly stroked her long hair, feeling that such bright weather was perfect for doing something.

"what happened?"

Lin Zhimeng was a little unaccustomed to Su Chao calling her by her name directly; he usually called her either "Sister" or "Mengmeng." "Will you be my girlfriend? Let's date!"

Su Chao's voice carries a softened sense of composure.

The heartbreak he suffered in his past life, coupled with his exposure to the internet age, has made him less trusting of love.

Even those couples who had decent marriages gradually settled into a peaceful routine after a few years.

Love gradually transforms into friendship and kinship.

Sometimes, you can't feel any difference between touching your wife and touching yourself.

I've been given a second chance at life.

Su Chao doesn't hesitate as much when doing things.

He thought about it, so he did it.

"Didn't you already tell the media that I'm your girlfriend?"

Lin Zhimeng's voice still sounded somewhat annoyed.

This is what they mean by "acting first and informing later."

"That's different. I'm being serious now. I hope you can be my girlfriend. So, will you say yes?"

Su Chao wouldn't make baseless accusations.

He knew he had left a deep impression on Lin Zhimeng, and it was time to fight for his legal status.

"Whether I agree or not, it won't affect you at all."

Lin Zhimeng has gotten used to it.

"There will still be some. As the saying goes, if the name is not correct, the words will not be proper. I want to hear you say it with my own ears. Do you agree? Just nod."

Su Chao knew she was shy.

"Why is it okay to nod, but I can't shake my head?"

Lin Zhimeng almost laughed out of anger at him.

"I didn't want to make decisions on my own at the press conference, nor did I want to embarrass myself in public at the album signing event this afternoon. So I spent a lot of time preparing myself mentally and mustering up my courage to confess my feelings to you in this unfamiliar city..."

Su Chao reached out and hugged her tightly. "I gave you a chance to stand face to face and talk, but you're still clinging to me. Well, then I won't be polite."

In fact, Lin Zhimeng has already given the answer through her actions.

If she didn't agree, she would have run away long ago.

Or use self-defense techniques on Su Chao.

"I'll agree to your request since you look so pitiful. It's just a boyfriend relationship, nothing more. Just don't do anything too outrageous."

Lin Zhimeng added a sentence.

She found it hard to refuse Su Chao, especially since things had come to this point.

"Let's go shopping together. We have a fan meeting this afternoon, and then we'll go record a song for Kelly Chen tonight."

Su Chao only has a short time at noon to accompany his girlfriend shopping.

The album signing event in the afternoon was organized with the help of Chan Kin-tim. His connections are concentrated in Hong Kong, so organizing such events is a piece of cake for him.

Now, even the streets and alleys of Hong Kong are filled with the song "Too Softhearted".

This time, the organization was more formal.

The number of attendees was limited, and new albums could be purchased at the ticket counter.

Su Chao adopted interval therapy.

Sometimes she sings, sometimes she does autograph sessions, and occasionally she even does a stand-up comedy routine.

Su Chao watched a lot of stand-up comedy in his past life.

Some are good, making you laugh out loud, and even offering some life insights; others are completely rubbish, making you want to curse after listening to them.

He's mainly talking about "My Sassy Girl" right now.

He shared some interesting anecdotes about the script and filming, half true and half false, which piqued the curiosity of many people about the movie.

The recording session that evening went smoothly without any major issues.

Su Chao recorded two songs for Kelly Chen: "Arctic Snow" and "It's All Your Fault".

"It's All Your Fault" is the Cantonese version of "The Moon Caused the Trouble".

Besides solo performances, duets between men and women are also possible, with slightly different lyrics.

Su Chao gave it all to Kelly Chen.

Kelly Chen plans to put them all in her next album.

Kelly Chen started practicing the song yesterday after receiving it, and she was able to sing it with that feel.

"If you're not determined to stay with someone for life, please don't fall in love with someone like me..."

With Su Chao's performance, Prince Ji was basically out of the picture.

Because of his father, Cheng Tung-han, Cheng Chung-kei grew up in a recording studio, but he has not yet officially debuted. He has only sung backing vocals for albums by artists such as Jacky Cheung, Alan Tam, Priscilla Chan, and Hacken Lee.

Su Chao really likes his song "Rogue".

"Your Eyes Betray Your Heart" and "Never Mention Loving You" are also good.

After the recording was finished, Su Chao's trip to Hong Kong came to an end.

Taiwan is the main focus of this publicity campaign.

Zhou Chuanxiong wants to hold a concert with him.

Sony Music covered all the costs, and the profits were split equally between Su Chao and Zhou Chuanxiong as a share for the artists.

It can be considered that Zhou Chuanxiong used the popularity of "Too Softhearted" to promote his new album.

In addition, Su Chao has been invited to participate in Fei Yuqing's variety show. He has already obtained the approval and is going to seriously compete for awards and rankings in Taiwan.
