Entertainment: This top celebrity is really letting loose!

Chapter 8 must have known quite a few female classmates who were good singers.

Shanghai, Pujiang No. 1.

Zhou Yang exited the panel and realized a pattern: even without tasks, as long as he maintained a carefree attitude at all times, the system's "carefree value" would still slowly increase.

"It seems I'm destined to be free from any kind of idol image for a long time to come."

When he checked his phone, he found over a dozen missed calls and dozens of unread WeChat messages, most of which were from Wang Man.

Since the first episode of "Back to Field" aired, he has not contacted the other party, since the actual broadcast of the show was completely contrary to his previous promise that he "had a very pleasant time with the two teachers".

The agent must be incredibly frustrated right now.

Despite the overwhelming criticism from the outside world, it did not affect Zhou Yang, the instigator, at all. He ate well and slept soundly these past few days, and almost every day he didn't get up until noon.

After a brief sigh, I thought of the song "Flowers Bloom All the Way" lying in the system repository.

This song isn't suitable for him, but leaving it unused is a waste. Last time he asked Wang Man to help him find a female singer, but she hasn't given him a clear answer yet. If he releases it, at least he can get some royalties, right?

Half an hour later, Zhou Yang drove to the company and went directly to the artist department.

"Director Wang is currently... Hello, Teacher Zhou Yang."

The doorman tried to stop them, but after seeing who it was, he quickly changed his mind.

Zhou Yang nodded, pushed open the door and entered, where he saw a young figure sitting opposite the desk.

When they saw him arrive, the two of them looked up at him at the same time.

The girl looked to be about his age, with delicate features and a neat ponytail. She glanced at him briefly before turning her head away and ignoring him.

Wang Man pointed to the sofa next to her, gesturing for him to sit down and wait a moment, then said to the girl:

"Weiwei, you are currently the only professionally trained singer in the company, and you are also part of the company's future plans. We hope you will reconsider the matter of terminating your contract."

The girl named Weiwei shook her head and said, "I appreciate your kindness, Director Wang, but these past two years with Starry Sky Entertainment have completely extinguished all my hopes. I really don't want to waste any more of my time."

Professionally trained?

Are they currently threatening to terminate the contract?

After hearing the whole story, Zhou Yang suddenly became interested and, taking advantage of a break in their conversation, deliberately spoke loudly:

"Sister Wang, if she wants to terminate her contract, just let her. She doesn't earn much for the company anyway. Besides, she'd probably be a nobody at any other company..."

Upon hearing this, the girl turned around, glaring at him angrily, and said, "Who are you calling a nobody? And what business is it of yours if I ask Director Wang to terminate my contract?"

"You're not a nobody? You've debuted? Do you have any representative works? Tell me about them."

Zhou Yang looked completely unconcerned.

"You... that's still better than your singing of 'Last-Time Cramming,' which is an insult to the profession of composer."

The girl paused slightly, finally finding a reason to attack him.

To everyone's surprise, Zhou Yang didn't care at all and deliberately said, "Is being a composer such a great profession? Besides, do you know how many downloads my song 'Last-Time Cramming' has? Do you know how much money it makes for the company?"

Even though it's a case of being famous for something bad, it's still a success. Although "Last-Time Cramming" is terrible, it was written by Zhou Yang, a top influencer. With the recent popularity of "Yearning" and the support of her huge fan base, the number of downloads remains high.

Want to criticize me? You still have to pay for a membership to listen to music or download it, right?

Just as the girl was about to retort, Wang Man quickly patted her shoulder and said, "Weiwei, you go back first. We can talk about the contract termination another day. I have something to discuss with Zhou Yang right now."

"it is good."

As the girl got up to leave, she glared at him fiercely once more.

Zhou Yang wasn't being sarcastic or making things up. When he heard that the girl was a classically trained musician, he thought of the song "Flowers Bloom All the Way".

This song isn't particularly difficult, the lyrics are quite positive, and the melody is catchy, making it a pretty good viral song in the short video genre.

Wang Man sat down on the sofa and complained, "Yangyang, why are you, a grown man, arguing with a young girl for no reason? Aren't you afraid of making a fool of yourself?"

After complaining, she added, "Why are you at the company today? What do you want?"

The company's senior management had given Zhou Yang a long leave of absence, and there would be no announcements for a while. Therefore, he assumed that Zhou Yang needed to contact him.

"Oh, it's nothing really. I had a song with you last time, and I was thinking of asking you, Sister Wang, to find a few female singers in the company to try it out."

"Still writing songs? Didn't that 'Last-Minute Cramming' get enough criticism?"

"This time it's definitely different, but I'm curious, why didn't 'Last-Time Cramming' appear on the new song chart or the hot song chart, even though its numbers are quite high?"

The New Song Chart and the Hot Song Chart are the two most important charts in the Chinese pop music scene. The former only counts new songs each month, while the latter is not limited to new songs.

The latter, in particular, is often important. The length of time a song dominates the charts and the number of months it remains a key factor in the Golden Wheat Awards selection process at the beginning of the following year.

"I already called and asked. The Music Association said that too many people reported your song, and their internal staff also thought that the quality was too poor, so it was not included in the charts."

"What a pity."

Zhou Yang shook his head. He hadn't expected that the music association in this time and space would be so principled and have such a bottom line.

"By the way, you just said you wanted me to find a female singer to audition your new song?"

Wang Man suddenly said.

"Yes!"

"Then why are you still angry with Sun Weiwei? You know, that girl has a pretty good voice and singing skills."

"I did it on purpose."

"Intentional?"

"You seem like a completely different person lately. Oh, and your performance on 'Aspirations' still hasn't given me a reasonable explanation?"

Mentioning "Back to Field" gives Wang Man a headache. She recorded a variety show and offended two bigwigs, Huang and He, to no end.

Huang Lei, in particular, is a well-known bigwig in the entertainment industry. He was a teacher at the Beijing Film Academy for several years, and his connections in Beijing's elite circles are quite formidable.

Now that my little darling has made such a mess of things, how am I supposed to make it in Beijing's elite circles in the future?

If she had known this would happen, she would never have agreed to let Zhou Yang record "Longing".

"Sister Wang, I have something to do... Oh right, I think I left the tap running when I came, I need to hurry back. Remember to arrange for the female singer to be in the vocal room tomorrow..."

Seeing that his agent was planning to hold "Aspiration" magazine accountable, he quickly made an excuse to slip away.

.

.

The following morning, Zhou Yang did not sleep in and arrived at the company's vocal room on time.

Upon entering, he saw more than a dozen young female singers standing inside, showing that Wang Man took his requirements very seriously.

"Hello, Professor Zhou Yang."

"Hello, Yang-gege."

"Gege is so handsome."

"..."

Upon seeing the arrival of the main figure, the group of female singers began to display their charm, hoping to catch the eye of this pillar of the company.

As for whether the song is good or bad, nobody cares at all. After all, even a terrible song like "Last-Time Cramming" can get millions of downloads.

"Please don't rush, everyone, line up and come one by one."

Zhou Yang instructed the staff to distribute the printed sheet music to each person and said that he would test their voices one by one in ten minutes.

Although everyone tried their best to showcase their best voices while singing, Zhou Yang inwardly shook her head repeatedly.

These so-called female singers in front of me are almost all trainees in the company's basement. They were signed by the company when they were teenagers. Not to mention their vocal qualities, their basic skills are also very poor.

Of the few I remember, only two were close friends with the predecessor, Guan Zhong and Bao Shuya.

Thinking of the girl he had argued with in Sister Wang's office yesterday, he immediately said, "I'm sorry to have taken up everyone's time. You don't have anyone suitable at the moment, but I would like to ask you all to do me a small favor when you get back..."

A few minutes later, a dozen girls returned to the artists' department in a large group with sheet music, and then a group of them deliberately started talking loudly around Sun Weiwei.

"What a pity, such a good new song, I wonder who will benefit from it in the end."

"The song itself is secondary; the key point is that Zhou Yang said he will personally promote it on Weibo and Douyin accounts. Just imagine the sheer volume of traffic that will generate!"

"I'd be willing to sing even if it meant paying out of pocket if I got selected, let alone sharing the profits."

"Yang hasn't had many gigs lately. If he just says the word, Sister Wang will probably mobilize all the company's resources for publicity. It's exciting to think about."

"I wonder who this lucky person will be."

"It definitely won't be us."

"..."

Just then, someone finally noticed Sun Weiwei and asked, "Weiwei, almost all the female singers in the artist department went, why didn't we see you earlier?"

"I'm not interested in that. Besides, how could Zhou Yang possibly write any good songs?"

She knew that Wang Man had invited a group of female singers to audition at the vocal studio, but she didn't take it seriously.

Firstly, the experience of last night in the office and the "last-minute cramming" made him have a terrible impression of Zhou Yang, and secondly, Wang Man really didn't inform her.

"This time it's really different. We've all sung this new song before, and it's really well-written. You should check it out if you don't believe me."

As he spoke, he stuffed the sheet music into her hand, and out of curiosity, Sun Weiwei looked down to look at it.

After she finished reading the whole song, a hint of surprise appeared in her beautiful eyes. This song, "Flowers Bloom All the Way," was indeed quite well-written, just as these people had said.

While it may not be particularly musical, it is catchy and has a very memorable melody.

If, as these people just said, they can acquire this song and have Zhou Yang, a top star, and the entire company's resources for promotion and packaging, then it would definitely be a golden opportunity.

It's worth noting that she hasn't received any opportunities in the two years since joining Star Entertainment, which is why she went to Wang Man's office yesterday to request contract termination.

As Zhou Yang said yesterday, even if she successfully terminates her contract and goes to another company, how many options does someone as insignificant as her have?

Instead, let's focus on the present.

Thinking of this, a burning flame finally ignited in her heart, but when she thought of what happened in the office yesterday, she was very worried.

She didn't give that company's top guy any face yesterday, so why is she coming to him now? Isn't she just asking for trouble?

At this moment, another girl said, "Brother Yang just said he's looking for a professionally trained singer with good singing skills. Weiwei, if you don't go, Director Wang will probably have to find someone from another company."

Should we look for other companies?

Upon hearing this, Sun Weiwei finally made up her mind: "Whether it works or not, I have to try to find out. I'm going to the vocal studio now."

Many girls looked at her back with envy. Zhou Yang went to so much trouble to get them to stir things up. Anyone with eyes could see that Sun Weiwei had probably already been chosen or even pre-selected.

Such immense wealth is bound to make people envious.

Five minutes later, Sun Weiwei nervously entered the vocal room.

The moment the door opened, their eyes met. Before she could speak, Zhou Yang said, "Sun Weiwei, right? I just saw you in Sister Wang's office yesterday. I was just about to go find you!"

With a smile on her face and an unusually gentle tone of voice, there was no indication that the two had just had a disagreement yesterday.

Looking for me?

Sun Weiwei's heart immediately lit up with hope. "You called me... is there something you need?"

"I've seen your resume; it says you graduated from the Popular Singing Department of the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, right?"

"Yes, yes, that's right."

Sun Weiwei's heart was so excited it felt like it was about to jump out of her chest.

"Since you graduated from the Magic Voice School, you must know a lot of female classmates who have good singing skills. Could you introduce me to a few so they can come and try out this song, 'A Journey of Flowers'?"
