Business Closed Loop: Starting with Ringback Tones to Take Down Giants

The weather was quite nice, and Wang Song was checking contracts on his computer.

Ma Xiaojun suddenly leaned over and whispered, "Boss, look at that girl by the door, she walks so arrogantly."

Jiang Yilei peeked out from the side and slapped Ma Xiaojun on the back of the head: "Stop pointing! The person is coming over."

Wang Song looked up.

The door was pushed open, and a young woman wearing a white T-shirt and jeans walked in, her ponytail tied high.

Her steps were light and quick, and her back was ramrod straight; it was clear she had a background in dance.

She stood at the doorway, her gaze sweeping over the messy room, but she didn't see Yao Beina or Chang Sisi.

Finally, it stopped on Wang Song.

"Hello, is this Xianming... company?" She looked at the words on the signboard and reluctantly put the studio back.

Wang Song was stunned for a moment.

Jing Tian!

What should I say about this girl?

You, Jing Tian, ​​have gone through so many big productions, yet you still can't make someone famous?

It's just a change of name but not substance. Zhang Yadong has his reasons: "Whom do I bring? I bring Wang Fei."

Who do you think you are? You want me to write a song? Can he even write one?

Money can power!!

What level is Jing Tian at now? Can she become famous? No, she can't. She doesn't have the ability, you know that?

If this continues, they'll end up acting in TV dramas, then movies after those flops, and then there won't be any more flops.

He switched to web dramas, found his niche, and became a hit.

Probably that's it.

Wang Song stared at the face that still had a bit of baby fat, was youthful but couldn't hide its charm.

"Hello, Wang Song." He extended his hand, his gaze sweeping over Jing Tian and the people beside her, without asking his purpose.

"Sit down, there are chairs over there."

Jing Tian didn't sit down; she stood there and said directly, "My name is Jing Tian, ​​and I... I want to ask you to write a song for me."

Wang Song paused for a moment, then raised an eyebrow.

Here comes the big spender, a customer whose business is practically handed to them.

Ma Xiaojun and Jiang Yilei exchanged a glance.

The two Super Girl songs just became hits, and artists have already approached them to commission songs? This is truly going viral!

Jiang Yilei reacted quickly, immediately pouring two glasses of water and handing them over: "Haha, please sit down, Miss Jing. Let's sit down and talk about what you need."

"Our boss is very particular about tailoring songs to specific needs."

"Really?" Jing Tian was delighted; it was so much better to talk to people her own age.

Unlike those record company people, who immediately bring up contracts, terms, and management agreements.

"Yes, we're students, we keep our word." Jiang Yilei gave a thumbs up.

Wang Song quickly opened the drawer and winked at Jiang Yilei, "Miss Jing Tian, ​​right? Here are four scripts. Take a look at them first."

"Seeing is believing. Give us two hours, and we'll go straight to the recording studio to hear the finished product."

Jing Tian stared blankly at the four scripts handed to her. "I...I haven't made any requests yet."

Wang Song had already turned and walked out, leaving behind only the words: "Your requirements are all in the script."

Jiang Yilei followed, and as he passed Wang Song, he heard him whisper, "Praise him, praise him as much as you can."

"The studio is short of funds, and our good works go unappreciated. We're relying entirely on your silver tongue."

Jiang Yilei remained expressionless and returned to the studio.

At this moment, Jing Tian was holding the four scripts, standing there somewhat helplessly.

The agent, Sister Lin, wanted to speak, but was stopped by a look from Jiang Yilei.

"Miss Jing, please have a seat." Jiang Yilei gestured to the sofa next to him and smiled apologetically.

"I apologize for the poor hospitality. That's just how the boss is; when inspiration strikes, nothing can stop him."

"If the script contains your requirements, then it definitely does. Just flip through it to pass the time."

Jing Tian sat down with some skepticism. "Oh...oh...let me see."

The cover reads "A Little Thing Called First Love".

She had intended to just flip through it casually to get through it, but once her eyes landed on the lines on the first page, she couldn't look away.

She saw that Xiaoshui was too insecure to confess her feelings, and she saw Xiaoshui working hard to change herself to become more beautiful.

There are no melodramatic love triangles, no complicated conflicts, only the purest and most clumsy girlish feelings.

Jing Tian's breathing unconsciously softened.

Seeing this, Sister Lin had no choice but to pick up a book and start reading it herself.

In less than half an hour, I finished reading the script.

"How is it?" Jiang Yilei's voice rang out at the right time, tinged with worry.

Jing Tian suddenly snapped out of her reverie and realized that she had been quite engrossed in the story. "This story... is really well written."

"What's the use of being good?" Jiang Yilei sighed and then began her performance.

"Our student company is broke. We've been polishing this script for almost half a year, and we definitely can't afford to make a movie out of it."

"Although he's a boss, he's still just a student under 20. In the end, he had to settle for second best and shoot a music video first."

She pointed to Xiao Shui on the script, her tone regretful and indignant: "Look at this protagonist, Xiao Shui, what a great role she is."

"We approached several students from the school's performing arts department, but they all said that making music videos doesn't offer any future prospects."

"We said we wouldn't make movies if we didn't make music videos, and they actually stopped making them. Can you believe it?"

Jing Tian was also indignant, "How could such a thing happen?"

She thought of Xiao Shui, the protagonist in the script, and mustered her courage, "Can...can I do it?"

Jiang Yilei was waiting for these words.

"Oh my! How come I didn't think of that! Miss Jing, your image and temperament are simply the perfect match for Xiao Shui! It's such a perfect fit!"

The series of shocks left Jing Tian's brain somewhat overwhelmed.

But she didn't see anything wrong with it at all; she just thought the messy studio looked even more pleasing to the eye.

Chaos? Creativity always requires tolerance.

"Okay! I've invested in both the movie and the music video. When do we start filming?"

Sister Lin, who was standing to the side, was about to speak when she remembered the boss's instructions, "Just let her play and don't get scammed."

Jiang Yilei's smile froze. Oh no, he'd been so busy making up stories.

This...this...wasn't she supposed to be writing a song? How did she suddenly steal Bai Baihe's leading role?

However, the atmosphere was quite different in the recording studio at the far end of the studio.

Wang Song clapped his hands and called over Li Ran and Zhou Tao, who were working on their song.

"Hey everyone, hold on a minute, we've got a big client! Someone's come in to commission a song, and they're loaded."

Li Ran had just taken off her headphones when she asked, "What style? Did the client have any suggestions?"

"No need to refer to it."

"I'll sing it out, and you guys hurry up and compose it. We need the most catchy chorus in 30 seconds."

……

"This is the screenwriter herself, Chen Shu."

"Those guys? They write web novels, have you read Tomb Raider Chronicles? It's really good."

"Look at this charity video, I've cried several times."

Jiang Yilei was still introducing himself, his mouth dry from talking, but seeing the other person's increasingly bright eyes, he became even more energetic.

For no other reason than it feels good to show off.

"Wait a minute, the recording studio should be ready." Jiang Yilei answered the phone.

"Okay, let's go."

"Oh...oh...okay."

Wang Song pushed open the soundproof door, and Jiang Yilei was still rambling on about the origins of the recording studio.

"Let me tell you, it was Yao Beina's mentor who helped..."

Wang Song happened to see Jing Tian holding a script, looking at him with bright eyes, as if she had already made some kind of decision.

"Ms. Jing, the product is ready for inspection in 30 seconds?" Wang Song waved the monitoring headphones in his hand.

"Perhaps they were too busy smiling and crying at the time..."

"It turns out you are the luck I most want to hold onto..."

Thirty seconds later, Jing Tian took off her headphones, still wanting more, her eyes shining even brighter, "This song! This song... are you really going to sing it for me?"

Wang Song handed her the lyrics: "If you think it's good, we can talk about collaboration. If you don't think it's good, you can look at other options."

Jing Tian took the lyrics and remained silent for a long time. The story between her and Xiao Shui was just... just too perfect.

Jiang Yilei leaned close to Wang Song's ear and whispered, "Boss, we've messed up a bit. Miss Jing, she... she said she wants both the music video and the movie."

Wang Song was speechless for a moment. Oh well, the movie is still in its infancy, so what difference does it make who acts in it?

He winked at Jiang Yilei: "Take him out and let's talk business."

Jiang Yilei immediately understood and smiled as he took Jing Tian's arm: "Miss Jing, come on, let's talk outside."

Back in the studio, Jing Tian clutched the lyrics and script tightly, looking at Wang Song: "Mr. Wang... Mr. Wang."

Wang Song waved his hand: "Don't call me that. I'm also a student in the 05 directing class. Just call me Wang."

"Okay, Director Wang, then for these two, you...you name a price."

Wang Song slowly held up two fingers: "Two and a half million. The music video is yours, and the movie is your investment. How about it?"

Jing Tian's eyes lit up. "Really?"

Wang Song's heart skipped a beat.

Oh no, not enough was dispensed.

But he remained expressionless, simply smiling: "Really, if you agree, come over tomorrow to film the music video."

She stood up, flicking her ponytail: "Sister Lin, I'll make the payment tomorrow."

Sister Lin sighed, took out a business card from her bag and handed it to Jiang Yilei: "Let's come back tomorrow to discuss the details."

"By the way, Director Wang, that role of Xiao Shui... is it really mine?"

Wang Song nodded: "Yours."

Jing Tian's eyes curved into crescents. Holding the script and lyrics, she hummed the song "A Little Happiness" that she had just heard, and then pushed open the door and went out.

As she reached the door, she turned back and waved into the house, saying, "I'm off then! See you tomorrow!"
