Ring, ring, ring!
The phone rang.
It was an unknown number.
Yang Chen picked up the phone.”
"Hello, is this Teacher Chen Yang? I'm the executive director of I Am a Singer, Zhang Liang.”Zhang Liang's bright voice came from the phone.
"So it's Director Zhang. Hello.”
Director Zhang was very famous in the industry. He had planned many well-known and popular variety shows, so his status in the industry was extraordinary. Even some of the Masked Kings and Queens had to be polite in front of Zhang Liang, but Yang Chen was neither servile nor overbearing.
"It's like this, Teacher Chen Yang. This time, I Am a Singer will be live streaming this Friday at 8 PM. Which song will you be singing? Tell the production team to get ready." Zhang Liang asked.
Usually, I Am a Singer would sing some classic songs, and the live band would prepare in advance.
If they needed to re-arrange the music, they would have to communicate and rehearse with the band's production teacher in advance.
After all, it was a show. Everything was focused on the live effect, allowing the audience to be completely immersed in it.
"There's no need. The song I'm singing this time is an original song. I'll make a version in the next two days. When the time comes, the band teachers will familiarize themselves with it in advance.”Yang Chen said.
"Original song?" Zhang Liang was shocked, but he didn't ask further. He said,"Alright, I'll get the program team to book the tickets for Thursday.”
After a pause, Zhang Liang continued,"Oh right, the cost of this appearance is 1 million yuan. After the live broadcast is completed, it will be directly transferred to your bank card.”
"Then I'll have to trouble Director Zhang.”Yang Chen was surprised.
That was because the appearance fee of one million yuan per episode was not low.
Many famous singers, such as Han Lei, Zhang Jie, and the others in this episode, also received an appearance fee of one million yuan per episode.
As for Yang Chen?
As an unknown singer who had yet to debut, Yang Chen thought that it would be good enough for the production team to give him 200,000 yuan for an episode.
He didn't expect it to be the same as famous singers like Han Lei, with a price of 1 million per episode.
"Alright, Teacher Chen Yang, I'll be waiting for you at Xiangnan.”Zhang Liang laughed heartily and hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Liang heaved a sigh of relief.
Yang Chen was much nicer than he had expected.
Everyone in the outside world thought that Yang Chen had used Zhang Liang's connections to get into I Am a Singer's program team.
However, Zhang Liang himself knew very well that he did not recognize Yang Chen at all. In fact, he had never heard of such a person before.
Yang Chen was able to join the production team because of the orders from above.
In the beginning, Zhang Liang did not take it seriously.
However, Zhang Liang had to take the higher-ups 'words seriously.
At that time, the higher-ups 'original words were: Yang Chen had to go. Even if there were no conditions, he had to create them.
The SARFT was a government department after all, so they were usually tactful and reserved when they spoke.
But this time, it was very different.
It made Zhang Liang realize that Yang Chen's relationship was not ordinary!
He was the kind of person who could do whatever he wanted in the entertainment industry!
That was why Zhang Liang was so polite.
Otherwise, with Zhang Liang's status in the entertainment industry, he wouldn't have put Zhang Jie, Deng Ziqi, and the others in his eyes.
Only Han Lei and Tan Jing could make Zhang Liang be polite.
This was also the reason why Zhang Liang paid Yang Chen as much as 1 million yuan for each episode.
It couldn't be too high or too low. It would be best if it was the same as the others.
If it was too high, the people in the industry would gossip and say that Zhang Liang was a typical bootlicker.
If it was too low, it might offend Yang Chen and the higher-ups.
To the production team of I Am a Singer, 1 million yuan was nothing.
There was no need to offend Yang Chen in this regard.
However, Zhang Liang felt a headache when he thought about how he had asked his old friend about Yang Chen.
Yang Chen's singing was well-known in the industry.
"I hope Yang Chen doesn't ruin the reputation of this episode of I Am a Singer…" Zhang Liang muttered to himself.
The higher-ups had given a death order, so Zhang Liang could only bite the bullet and go ahead.
......
Of course, Yang Chen didn't know what Liang Zhang was thinking.
If he knew, Yang Chen would not know whether to laugh or cry.
What kind of background did he have?
That was the system's yyyds!
The invitation letter to I Am a Singer given by the system came from a legitimate source, and there would definitely not be any clues. All the problems had been dealt with.
For the next few days, Yang Chen paid no attention to the outside world and focused on producing songs.
'Faith' was a divine emo song.
Although the lyrics and lyrics of "Faith" given by the system were very complete.
However, Yang Chen still made some changes.
Firstly, it could make the song more suitable for the ears of the audience.
Secondly, this song was being performed live, so it required a specific rhythm, drum beats, and a perfect combination of musical instruments.
Therefore, Yang Chen had re-arranged the song.
Until he was satisfied.
......
Time flew by, and it was 3 pm on Thursday.
Yang Chen was accompanied by a few of the company's higher-ups as he took a plane to Xiangnan to prepare for the show.
It was worth mentioning that the production team of I Am a Singer had booked Yang Chen in first class.
The plane arrived at Xiangnan near dusk.
At the airport's pick-up area, two young ladies from the program team held up a sign to welcome Yang Chen.
"Teacher Chen Yang, you're even more handsome than in the photo.”The young lady's eyes lit up when she saw Yang Chen!
She wasn't an ordinary airport pick-up staff. She had been working at Xiangnan TV Station for many years and had received big shots all year round.
He had seen countless big and small celebrities, such as popular young hunks, handsome men, and old actors.
It was not as if there were no other people as handsome as Yang Chen.
However, Yang Chen's temperament was too rare.
She was different from other people in the entertainment industry.
"Thank you. You're also very beautiful.”Yang Chen said politely.
"Teacher Chen Yang, let me introduce you to the specifics of this episode.”
The young lady didn't dare to be negligent. Before she came to pick him up, Director Zhang had repeatedly reminded her to take good care of Yang Chen.
"The six singers for this episode are Han Lei, Deng Ziqi, Zhang Jie, Sha Baoliang, Tan Jing, and Hua Chenyu.”
"The rankings are based on the points from the previous episode, so Teacher Hua Chenyu had the lowest points in the previous episode. As a challenger, you are challenging Teacher Hua Chenyu. If you succeed in the challenge, you can stay. If you fail…"
The young lady didn't finish her sentence, but her meaning was clear.
If the challenge failed, Yang Chen would have to leave dejectedly.
Moreover, the young lady did not think highly of Yang Chen.
As a staff member of I Am a Singer, she knew Yang Chen beforehand.
She knew that Yang Chen's singing wasn't good.
Even though Hua Chenyu did not have a good reputation in the entertainment industry.
However, in terms of singing, Hua Chenyu was really good. It was just that her singing style was too strange.
As soon as Hua Chenyu sang, people could not help but throw the soles of their shoes on her face.
He deserved a beating!
After all, the first test of I Am a Singer was singing.
The production team would never invite singers with poor singing skills.
Yang Chen's presence was purely due to shady dealings.
