" They are all brave. The wound on your forehead, your difference, your mistakes…"
" There's no need to hide. Your worn-out doll, your mask, your ego…"
As a senior executive of Maitian Music, although Zhang Yadong was not a professional musician, he still had some musical attainments.
Picking up Lu Bai's new song, he only hummed a few lines and immediately realized that this song was extraordinary.
"I love you walking alone in the dark alley... I love the way you don't kneel…"
"I love you so much that I have to face despair…You're not willing to cry…"
As the song progressed, Zhang Yadong's pupils gradually dilated, and his expression was very interesting.
"Alright... Good song!"
There was no need for a market evaluation, no need for a demo, and he did not even need to read the entire lyrics. Zhang Yadong shouted out with certainty.
After all, from the lyrics to the score, this song was almost flawless. It had already reached a perfect level.
More importantly, this song was different from those decadent songs that sang about love on the market. It contained an unyielding and arrogant attitude towards life, which was quite inspiring. In popular terms, this was a genuine positive energy.
To be able to write a positive song to this level, probably only a musical genius like Lu Bai could do it.
Zhang Yadong held the song book as if he had found a treasure. His hands were trembling because he clearly realized that if this song was well performed, it would definitely show great power and might even hit the top spot of the annual pop song chart!
"Xiao Bai, I'll call for a meeting with the company's higher-ups immediately. You have to find an A-list singer to perform this song of yours.”
"But don't worry. With the standard of your song, those A-list singers will definitely fight to collaborate with you. After all, singing at this level will be very beneficial to them.”
At this moment, Zhang Yadong was like an ant on a hot pan. He could not sit still anymore.
However, just as he was about to call the company's higher-ups for a meeting, Lu Bai pulled him back with a calm expression.
"Director Zhang, I have a different idea for this song.”
Zhang Yadong was stunned when he heard that, and his eyes inevitably revealed some anxiety.
"Is it about the remuneration? Xiaobai, don't worry, there's no problem with increasing the remuneration! How about this, I promise you in my own name that no matter how the song performs in the market, the remuneration I'll give you will definitely not be less than one million!”
Zhang Yadong thought that Lu Bai was going to raise the price, so he panicked. He was afraid that Lu Bai, this super money tree, would switch to another music company.
It had to be said that in the face of such a national treasure employee, the company and the boss did not dare to be high and mighty. Instead, they had to lower their stance and coax him.
However, Lu Bai shook his head quietly.
"It's not about the money. I'm going to sing this song myself.”
"Huh?"
Zhang Yadong was dumbfounded and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
Lu Bai was a musical genius. The entire company of Maitian Music had unanimously agreed that Lu Bai was a musical genius. There was no doubt about it.
However, Lu Bai had always been a music composer behind the scenes and had never sung a song himself. Moreover, there was an unwritten conclusion in the music industry that creative geniuses were generally not singing geniuses.
As for those god-level singers, their own composing skills would not be particularly strong. After all, the heavens were very fair.
Therefore, it was normal for General Manager Wang to not trust Lu Bai's singing skills.
Even if Lu Bai's singing skills were decent and could reach the standard of a professional singer, it would be better to find an A-list singer to sing this song. After all, experience and popularity were also decisive factors in a song.
Lu Bai knew this very well, but he had his own thoughts.
In fact, Lu Bai was a transmigrator who had just transmigrated to this parallel world for less than half a year.
The original host of this body could not take the blow because of the huge debt of 600 million yuan at home and was already dead. That was why Lu Bai took over the body.
However, Lu Bai was also speechless about the debt of 600 million after transmigrating. Compared to other transmigrators, this was simply a small wooden stick at the beginning of the game that made him fight the ultimate boss.
Originally, Lu Bai did not want to help his cheap father pay off his debts for no reason. After all, he was not a wronged person.
However, not long after he transmigrated, he awakened a mysterious system, and the initial main mission issued by the system was to pay off his debts.
Every time he paid off a portion of his debt, the system would reward him with a Master-level exclusive skill.
For example, when the system first activated the novice gift bag, Lu Bai received the master-level composition skill after opening it.
In addition, Lu Bai had discovered through exploration that although this parallel world was highly similar to the Blue Planet, there were many differences in details and timeline. For example, many of the classic and popular songs on the Blue Planet had never appeared in this world.
Therefore, in order to repay his debt and obtain the system reward, Lu Bai embarked on the path of music creation.
However, after half a year, although Lu Bai had earned four million yuan, it was still nothing compared to the debt of six hundred million yuan. Moreover, his income was too simple and his progress was relatively slow.
After thinking about it, Lu Bai felt that if he wanted to earn a lot of money and pay off his debts as soon as possible, he could not just rely on writing songs. He had to further enter the entertainment industry, develop his popularity, and become a real celebrity to earn more money.
And personally singing this song was the first step in Lu Bai's plan.
As for his singing skills, he did not have to worry about them at all. This was because Lu Bai had paid off his debt of four million in the first half of the year and completed part of the main mission. The system had already rewarded Lu Bai with Master Level Singing Skills.
"Xiao Bai, I understand what you mean, but isn't it a little too rushed? Moreover, the song 'Lone Brave' is too good. If you use it as a touchstone, it's more or less a pity…"
Zhang Yadong did not dare to reject Lu Bai's request directly. After all, up until now, Lu Bai and Maitian Music were only in a cooperative relationship and were not directly controlled by the company.
To put it bluntly, with Lu Bai's talent and works, it would be easy for him to work with another music company. Perhaps the treatment would be even better than now.
In fact, after the song " Flammables and Explosions " became popular, many music companies in the market had already noticed Lu Bai, the talented composer behind the scenes. They were all trying to find out more about him.
Fortunately, Maitian Music had done a good job of keeping it a secret. In addition, Lu Bai kept a low profile, so those in the industry could not find any traces of Lu Bai.
Therefore, no matter how obstinate Lu Bai was, Wheatfield Music could only persuade him and did not dare to refuse.
"Director Zhang, there's no need to persuade me."
Looking at Lu Bai's serious expression, Zhang Yadong could not help but sigh.
"Then, alright then. Xiao Bai, since you've already thought it through, the company will respect and support your decision. Also, when are you planning to start filming officially?”
"Let's do it today."
"Ah, okay then. I'll get the company to prepare…"
