Chapter 4 Taking the blame? Taking the blame!

"I saw, this is what you gave her just now, right?" The teacher asked Cheng Dayong, holding a heart-shaped letterhead.

"Um."

After being caught in action, Cheng Dayong could only nod his head.

"Then can you tell me what you wrote here?" the teacher asked with a smile.

"No... nothing, just an ordinary origami." Cheng Dayong stuttered in reply.

"Really?" The teacher glanced at him and said with a smile, "If you don't tell me, I will have to open it and read it myself."

Cheng Dayong: "..."

You're still torturing me even though you know what's going on, right?

Su Jinxing watched silently on the side. The love letter must not be hidden. Everything is in the hands of the teacher. Isn't this mailing in the mail?

It is strictly prohibited by the company to fall in love among trainees. Although no one takes it seriously, you can't say it openly.

Therefore, Cheng Dayong can basically declare GG.

If nothing else goes wrong, the head of the trainee room will have a "cordial" conversation with him later.

[Youth belongs to confession, sunshine belongs to the window sill, and I think I belong to a future with you]

The teacher looked at the words on the letterhead and raised his eyebrows unconsciously, Chinese?

Although he doesn't know Chinese, he still has the most basic aesthetics.

No matter how you look at this Chinese, it is not written by Cheng Dayong, a person who is not very good at writing Korean.

Chinese characters are beautiful...

The teacher's eyes fell on Su Jinxing next to Cheng Dayong.

There are only about ten foreign trainees in the company, and the teacher in charge of the trainees knows all of them.

Of course he recognized Su Jinxing, a young talent who had a chance to debut.

"Tell me, who wrote this?" the teacher looked at Su Jinxing and asked.

Su Jinxing was stunned for a moment, why are you looking at me?

But then he remembered that this was Chinese, and it was written by him.

Did the teacher mistake him for a Huaichun boy?

Su Jinxing's first reaction was not to deny it, but to look at Cheng Dayong.

Cheng Dayong was still at the stage where his legs were trembling and he was unreliable.

Think for a moment.

"I wrote it, and I asked Cheng Dayong to hand it to Pei Zhuxuanxi for me."

Cheng Da bravely raised his head and looked at Su Jinxing with disbelief.

Where the teacher could not see, Su Jinxing secretly stretched out three fingers.

Cheng Dayong understood.

"You owe me three meals."

Cheng Dayong burst into tears.

Brothers!

"Yes, I'm just passing it on for him!"

As soon as these words came out, Pei Zhuxuan looked at Su Jinxing in surprise.

This handsome Chinese boy with excellent grades is quite famous among the company's trainees. After all, he has the blessing of being a foreigner and has attracted a lot of attention.

Pei Zhuxuan looked at Su Jinxing and fell into deep thought, not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeing that Su Jinxing took the blame so simply, the teacher was a little surprised at the other party's affection.

He is not blind. Cheng Dayong's expression is the protagonist no matter how you look at it, so the young man cannot tell that Su Jinxing is the one taking the blame.

However, he just wanted to set the tone for this matter, and it didn't matter who was punished.

"Since you wrote it, come to the office to find me after the assessment is over," the teacher said.

"No, I won't take part in the assessment." Su Jinxing shook his head and said.

As soon as he said this, everyone around him looked at him in surprise.

"Are you sure?" The teacher raised his eyebrows, what is this kid going to do?

Su Jinxing chuckled and took out his cell phone from his pocket.

The teacher's eyes twitched.

This guy is really rich. This is the iPhone 5 that just came out.

I opened the software and handed the lyrics and music of "Roar" that I worked overtime to the teacher. The teacher in front of me was in charge of vocal music assessment. Although he didn't know how to write lyrics and music, his music appreciation ability was not that great.

The teacher took the phone with some confusion, lowered his head and looked through it.

After watching for a while, the teacher's expression gradually changed.

"Is there a demo?"

"Yes." Su Jinxing nodded.

"Follow me." The teacher greeted several other assessment teachers who arrived, and then left the assessment area with Su Jinxing.

Cheng Dayong looked at Su Jinxing in confusion as he followed the teacher.

He is not stupid. The teacher doesn't look like he wants to punish Su Jinxing.

What did this kid show the teacher?

demo?

What the hell?

Pei Zhuxuan kept watching Su Jinxing leave with her beautiful eyes, and did not look back until she disappeared.

…

Art Director's Office.

Su Jinxing looked at the capable woman in a women's suit in front of him and felt a little scared instinctively.

This is a cowardice from a previous life.

S.M Art Director Min Xizhen, the entire silly art form, from concept to planning to production, is inseparable from this art director.

It can be said that basically all the works presented to the public by S.M are closely related to this art director.

It's a pity that the artistic director resigned in 2019.

Although Su Jinxing was quite frightened by Min Xizhen, he was convinced by his abilities.

After all, I was educated by her countless times in my previous life.

While Su Jinxing was lost in thought, Min Xizhen and the assessment teacher also finished listening to the "Roar" demo recorded on Su Jinxing's mobile phone.

The assessment teacher was okay, but Min Xizhen's eyes completely changed.

She had already had an impression of the song in her mind when she saw the lyrics and music, but she was still amazed when she actually heard the demo.

With many years of coaching experience, she quickly judged the potential of this song. This is a song that has a high probability of becoming a hit!

Moreover, judging from the rhythm distribution and musical sections, this song is not a solo song, but is written as a combination song.

"Did you write the song for xo?" The question is in an affirmative tone.

After a brief moment of confusion, Su Jinxing quickly adjusted and nodded towards Min Xizhen.

"Yes, director. I created this song based on XO's seniors. I also prepared a Chinese, English, Japanese and Korean version, but only the Korean version was recorded as a demo."

"Not bad." Min Xizhen nodded and gave an evaluation.

The assessment teacher looked surprised. Although Min Xizhen was quite easy-going, she was very strict in her attitude towards her works.

This song by Su Jinxing is already rated as "good" by Min Xizhen, which is already outstanding.

"Since it's written to xo, then you can make a price." Min Xizhen handed Su Jinxing's cell phone to him, and Su Jinxing took his own.

"I want to share the rights."

I'm afraid only Su Jinxing in this world knows how popular "Roar" will be in the future. If he can get a share of the copyright, he will be able to live without copying any songs in the future until he dies.

"It's impossible to share the copyright. Seven million to buy it out." Min Xizhen gave a number.

To be fair, the price of 7 million Korean won to buy out a song was considered a high price in Korean entertainment in 2012, especially when buying a song from a new producer.

but!

"Too few." Su Jinxing shook his head.

For a song like "Roar", seven million is enough to send a beggar away! Even a zero Su Jinxing is not too much.

"Ten million, that's the price for a newbie." Min Xizhen continued.

"Director Min, you should be very aware of the potential of this song. XO has just debuted and needs a hit song to establish their position in the extremely competitive boy band market. This song is perfect for it."

"Ten million is too little."

Min Xizhen said nothing and stared at Su Jinxing.

Su Jinxing was shocked by her, but it was a seller's market now, and he was not afraid of Min Xizhen's direct rejection.

As for plagiarism...

Although this kind of thing happens a lot, S.M rarely does it. After all, the label of vampire and the label of plagiarism are completely different things.

As the leader in the Korean entertainment idol industry today, S.M. Company is unlikely to sacrifice its own brand for a song, even if it is a song that has the potential to become a hit.

Nothing is absolute. S.M. Company is essentially capital, and whatever it does is normal. But Su Jinxing understands Min Xizhen, at least she won't do this.

Lee Soo Man?

The moth will die!

Even though Min Xizhen was staring at her like this, Su Jinxing did not give in and forced himself to look at her.

moment.

"Tell me your conditions." Min Xizhen spoke. Even if Su Jinxing lived in two lifetimes, he was still just an 18th-tier artist. Facing a high-ranking official like Min Xizhen who had countless contacts, Su Jinxing didn't expect his little thoughts.

I can hide it.

"I want to terminate my training contract with the company and convert it into a producer contract." Su Jinxing stated his conditions.

S.M is an idol entertainment company, and one of the foundations of an idol entertainment company is vocal music. Before Su Jinxing develops, staying in S.M as a producer to accumulate contacts and supporters is his best choice at this stage.

However, all of S.M's producers are big bosses. S.M rarely hires new people and basically recruits producers with a certain reputation in the industry. Su Jinxing, a student at Hanlin High School of Arts, wants to become a producer of S.M.

, very difficult.

The song "Roar" was his stepping stone.

The assessment teacher looked at Su Jinxing in surprise, and at the same time he understood why this kid would take the blame for Cheng Dayong.

He doesn't want to stay in love at all.

"You can't be a producer for just one song." Min Xizhen said as if she was referring to something.

Su Jinxing: "..."

Old fox!

You can obviously see the potential shown in "Roar", but you still ask him this kind of question, isn't it just to see if he still has any stock in hand?

Hum, your calculations are also within my calculations JOJO!

"I have one more song." Su Jinxing paused, "There's only one left."

The words that there are no three hundred taels of silver here were certainly intentional on his part.

A smile appeared in Min Xizhen's eyes.

Children just can't keep calm.

"Can you listen to it for me? If the song is good, I can consider your proposal."

Su Jinxing "hesitated" for a moment and handed over another half-finished demo song on his phone.

Min Xizhen took it and clicked to play it.

Su Jinxing's half-baked English immediately sounded.

"hey girls"

"do you know what time it is"

Min Xizhen and the assessment teacher both had question marks on their foreheads, but Zhu Yu, who was playing "Roar" in front of them, continued to listen patiently.

[Summer song?]

Not long after the rhythm of the first verse sounded, both Min Xizhen and the assessment teacher felt the style of the song.

It's obviously a happy summer style.

It's this sound...

Su Jinxing's tone tends to be thick, which is completely out of tune with this kind of pleasant summer music, and sounds particularly strange.

Especially when it comes to the chorus, it’s even more awkward. But this is just a demo, and regardless of the flaws, they can all hear the value of this song.

Min Xizhen now also had a certain understanding of Su Jinxing's creative ability, and looked down at the name of the demo.

"PARTY"

"Girl group song?"

Su Jinxing nodded.

"Go back first and send me these two demos. I'll give you a reply in the next two days."

"Okay." Su Jinxing responded simply. Min Xizhen didn't know what to say with such crisp energy.

Is this kid really innocent and not afraid of the company hacking his songs, or is he just emboldened?

"Oh, by the way." Min Xizhen stopped Su Jinxing, "Let me tell you in advance that Bae Zhuhyun is a trainee that the company focuses on. If you really like her, don't disturb her. This will affect her debut evaluation.

"

Su Jinxing: "..."

"Inside." Su Jinxing bowed to the two of them, turned and left the office.

"Director nim?" the assessment teacher looked at Min Xizhen.

"Let's go, call all the producers in the company and listen to these two songs." Min Xizhen stood up and said.

"Inside."
