Chapter 162 Ruthless Destruction of Flowers

Yang Du had a particularly fulfilling Spring Festival.

On New Year's Eve, the song "Gong Xi Fa Cai" was featured on the Spring Festival Gala.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Xingran's team manipulated public opinion to attack and provoke conflict.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, "Little White Poplar" was broadcast.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the China Arts Daily and the New Union News broadcast a joint program.

In addition, "Big Fish" has regained popularity thanks to the success of "The Sea," climbing back to third place on the charts.

This smooth combo sent Yang Du's popularity and attention soaring, unlocking a long-awaited achievement.

[200 million reads]

His total number of reads on Weibo has officially surpassed 200 million!

So, on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Yang Du held another exciting and thrilling lottery draw.

"6

Congratulations, host, you have obtained the following items:

I Don't Want to Grow Up

Luck +1

Summer Fruits

"maple"

Customize your treasure chest.

"A great harvest! All the rewards are fantastic!" Yang Du pumped his fist in delight.

"I Don't Want to Grow Up" is one of the representative works of the top girl group S.H.E. in its previous life. What's even more amazing is the arrangement of this song, which perfectly blends the solemnity of classical music with the lightness of pop music. It can be said to be a model of popularizing classical elements in pop music.

"Summer Fruits" is an old song with a somewhat dated feel, carrying a lazy and carefree vibe, and it really tests a singer's vocal skills.

Needless to say, "Maple" is Jay Chou's obscure but divine song.

With the addition of a custom treasure chest, Yang Du's music library has become even more abundant.

On the tenth day of the month, Yang Du ended his holiday and returned to his loyal Qiuniu Studio.

As the saying goes, "New Year, new look," and in the new year, Qiuniu Studio also ushered in expansion.

As Yang Du's personal status rose and his business expanded, the studio, which was originally converted from a loft, became insufficient. Therefore, during the Spring Festival, Yuan Xiuqing rented two vacant Ioft buildings next door, knocked down the partition in the middle, and redesigned the space.

Not only has the venue become larger, but the number of staff has also increased.

In addition to Yuan Xiuqing, the head housekeeper, and Chen Chen, the assistant, driver, and bodyguard, Qiuniu Studio has finally welcomed its own finance team and public relations team, and has also officially signed a cooperation agreement with the law firm where Tie Xiong works.

Yang Du took a walk around, got to know a few employees, and seeing Yuan Xiuqing looking ready to show off her skills, he was quite satisfied and became a hands-off manager, going out to have dinner with a clear conscience.

My roommates and I had dinner at a grilled fish restaurant near the Beijing Conservatory of Music. Their spicy Qingjiang fish was absolutely amazing.

Strangely enough, Yang Du is from Hangzhou, Zhao Yiren is from Lingnan, Liu Ji is from Guangdong, and Zhou Feng is from Shanghai. They all have different taste preferences, but they surprisingly agree on spicy Qingjiang fish, and have been eating it since their freshman year.

Inside the private room, four people sat around a table, drinking beverages and chatting about all sorts of things.

Suddenly, Zhao Yiren said in a low voice, "Let me tell you a scary story. The first draft of my graduation thesis is due after the Lantern Festival."

.

For senior students, the graduation thesis is a terrifying prospect, akin to a death sentence, not to mention the torment of plagiarism checks that follow.

"You talk too much!" Zhou Feng roared, taking a big bite of fish.

"By the way, Commander," Liu Ji asked, "you're so busy, do you even have time to write your graduation thesis?"

"Um—" Yang Du said, "Actually, I haven't started choosing a topic yet."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Zhou Feng ate a lemon: "I'm not having it! I've almost finished the first draft of my paper, 'A Brief Analysis of the Impact of Video Game Soundtracks on Player Immersion,' and you haven't even started choosing a topic yet! Just because you have a work doesn't mean you can do whatever you want!"

"Sorry, having a work means you can do whatever you want, hahaha," Zhao Yiren said in Cantonese.

As Liu Ji took out his phone and opened CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure), he said to Zhou Feng with a puzzled look, "Your topic doesn't sound like a composition student's thesis."

Zhou Feng grew anxious and argued forcefully: "What do you know? Universities are now advocating interdisciplinary studies. Do you even know what interdisciplinary studies are? It's a very high-level concept, don't you understand?!"

Then came some discussions about the practical applications of composition from a music psychology perspective, and the air was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Zhao Yiren suddenly had a brilliant idea: "Governor, since you haven't chosen a topic yet, why not write an article titled 'On the Inspiration of Emotional Literature for Popular Music Creation'? It would be absolutely unprecedented and unparalleled."

"Brilliant!" Zhou Feng said. "The most crucial thing is that you don't need to search for literature on CNKI to write this paper. You yourself are the walking literature. When you defend your thesis, I definitely want to be there to watch."

Liu Ji, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, also chimed in: "I remember some big shot wrote his paper directly without any references. Governor, you can be the second one."

Yang Du thought about the scene for a moment, it was too beautiful to look at, and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, Director Huo told me before that as long as I can submit my graduation thesis on time, it will be fine. I will write a decent one."

"Alright, alright, is this how you play it?" Zhao Yiren also felt a bit sour; he'd been losing a lot of hair lately because of his thesis. "This grilled fish was supposed to be split equally, but now my share is on your tab."

"Very well, I am willing to serve Young Master Zhao."

"And mine too."

+1.

As the group was joking around, Liu Ji, who had just closed CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure), suddenly said, "Commander, guess what I saw?"

"What?"

"Tang You is releasing a new single."

Wow!

"Oh, oh, oh!"

Zhou Feng and Zhao Yiren cried out in surprise, as they were well aware of the feud between Yang Du and Yun Ge.

Yang Du quickly took out his phone to check, and sure enough, news of Tang You's new single had become a trending topic.

Just two minutes ago, YunGe Music officially announced: "Listen to the sound of 'Moonlight' and witness the art of 'New Generation'."

@V唐柚, the first single "Moonlight" from your second new solo album "New Generation" will be released online on February 22.

Stay tuned.

"I've finally waited for this!" Yang Du thought happily. This was the reason why he only announced the name of the order a few days ago without announcing the online time.

From Jiang Yinglan to Du Li and then to Gu Xingran's team, he and Yun Ge have several scores to settle.

Moreover, in the past, he had always been the one being attacked, and he rarely had the opportunity to fight back or take the initiative.

Now, it's finally his turn to snipe Yun Ge's people.

He opened WeChat, edited a message, and sent it to Yuan Xiuqing.

When he looked up, he found that all three of them were staring straight at him.

"What are you doing?"

Zhao Yiren said, "We're wondering if you'd be ruthless enough to destroy the flowers."

"screw you."

"Really?" Zhou Feng said. "That's Tang You."

Among the three emerging female singers born in the 00s, Tao Cheng is bright and elegant, Sun Qingning is a cool and aloof older sister, and Tang You is a fairy-like older sister with an otherworldly temperament and many male fans.

"Of course, those who have been wronged should seek justice, and those who have a grudge should take revenge."

"Alright." Liu Ji picked up his drink. "Then I wish the Governor a resounding victory."

"May the Governor achieve immediate success!"

"May the governor cruelly destroy these beautiful sisters!"

"Ugh!" Zhou Feng looked at Zhao Yiren with disdain. "Don't tell me the other flower is one."

"What's wrong? What's wrong? She's an orchid, are you being ageist?"
