Chapter 277 Director Wei Is Excited, Qi Xue Comes to Beijing

Li Qiyue listened to "Wukong" over and over again for five or six times. Stimulated by this song, her heart was surging and she couldn't sleep at all. She sat up from the bed and opened the song comment area.

Before listening to the song, she was very dissatisfied with these good reviews and felt that they insulted her childhood male god Sun Dasheng.

But now after listening to the song, she just felt that there were too few good reviews and too few people had heard "Wukong"!

"This song is really good. I cried when I heard it!"

"What a good song. I plan to rewatch Journey to the West. He has two masters in his life. One does not recognize him, and the other does not believe in him. Alas."

"At one o'clock in the morning, I was delivering food. Suddenly I heard this song. I don't know why tears suddenly fell down. I thought about my daughter who was just born at home, and my wife who hasn't bought new clothes for more than a year. Then I thought about myself. I got up at 6:30 in the morning to go to work in the company, and got off work at 5 pm. I didn't have time to eat, so I went to deliver food. I ran until 2 o'clock in the morning. I really couldn't hold back my tears."

"Amazing, this song is sung so well!"

"No, it's not the singing that's good, it's the composition and lyrics that are good! Wow, I really admire Teacher Tan!"

"Yes, the key It's the melody, and then the lyrics. As long as the melody is well written, it won't be bad no matter who sings it. "

"Wow, Teacher Tan is really a hidden talent. Why didn't I realize that Teacher Tan has such a deep attainment in music before?"

"Wow, there are so many things you haven't discovered. I suggest you search online for the songs that Teacher Tan sang before. They haven't been officially released, but you can find them all. The copyrights can be found on the official website of the General Administration of Culture. I like "Young and Promising" and "Song for Myself" very much!"

"I had a bad impression of this song. There are so many other names, but it was named "Wukong". Does it fit? After listening to it, I think it really fits. "

Li Qiyue covered her mouth and chuckled. Looking at the almost 100% positive comments from netizens, she was very happy.

It's also a very proud thing to be recognized by others for something you like.

Li Qiyue clicked the mouse and voted for "Wukong". Before, she thought that the champion of this Tomorrow Youth Network Singer Contest should be Li Xiaoyan's "Puffer" or Zhao Zhong's "Blue and White", but now after listening to "Wukong", Li Qiyue's heart has completely tilted.

She forwarded "Wukong" to her friends and commented to her friends: This is a super nice song. If you like it, go to the Tomorrow Youth Network Singer Contest to support it.

Li Qiyue felt that it was still not enough.

How could she help more?

Li Qiyue thought of the company group, which had about a thousand people. Usually, they would talk about work when they had work. When they didn't have work, some senior employees or leaders would chat in the group. People with less experience like Li Qiyue didn't dare to show up in it.

Li Qiyue thought, should she send "Wukong" to that group?

That company group was the one with the most people she joined, and many of her colleagues in it liked music. Such a good song would definitely be liked and forwarded by someone.

However, her immediate boss, the fierce manager, was also in the group, and Li Qiyue was a little scared.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Qiyue shook her head.

Forget it, I won't post it. If the manager sees it and scolds me tomorrow, it will be terrible.

At this time, Li Qiyue looked up at "Wukong" on the computer screen and clicked to play it again.

After listening to it, her blood boiled!

"Hum!"

"Go!"

"Down with the bad manager!"

"Come on, Oli Gei!"

Li Qiyue, who was usually calm and transparent, was excited and directly forwarded the link of "Wukong" to the group.

After posting it, the song was finished again, and she was scared again.

She wanted to withdraw it, but now she was in a dilemma. She wanted to post a sentence to explain, but she wrote and deleted it again, and she didn't know what to say.

Li Qiyue curled her lips and was really a little scared. For an autistic girl who had never spoken in the group, this was really the first time she did this.

Just when Li Qiyue was embarrassed and scared, someone in the group suddenly responded.

"Hahaha, it seems that someone in our company is listening to this song. It's nice. I also strongly recommend this song to everyone. It's quite good!"

Li Qiyue was relieved when she saw someone responding to her with a positive response. When she was about to think of words to reply, she suddenly saw the note of the person who responded to her just now - the chairman.

"Oh my God!" Li Qiyue was dumbfounded.

Did she alarm the chairman? And was recognized by the chairman?

Then, the group that had been silent just now quickly became lively, and a group of leaders, managers, supervisors and senior employees all came out.

"Hahaha, is that so? It's so nice, then I have to go and see it."

"What the chairman said must be right!"

"I listened to it, it's really nice! I want to cry when I listen to it!"

"I've posted it on WeChat Moments, support it by hitting the charts!"

Li Qiyue also saw her immediate boss, the fierce manager, in the group. He even tagged her, saying that this song is nice and thanked her for recommending it to everyone.

Won't you scold me for not sleeping in the middle of the night?

Li Qiyue was a little confused and quickly replied to the manager.

Then, she saw that her circle of friends was occupied by her colleagues.

They were all recommending "Wukong"!

Li Qiyue grinned, she felt that she had done something big.

However, this feeling was really good.

I will definitely do it again next time. Li Qiyue is eager to try it next time.

The Tomorrow Youth Network Singer Contest has conditions for participants, and each entertainment company has a quota limit. Even a large entertainment company in the circle, such as Brilliant Entertainment, only has five places, and other third-rate or second-rate entertainment companies and studios have even fewer places.

In total, there are only a little over 200 people.

In the case of a small number of people, that is to say, everyone has a certain amount of exposure, just the difference in how much.

For example, the exposure of the 200th place may be 300,000 or 400,000, and the exposure of the first place may be 300,000 or 400,000, or even more.

A great advantage of this mechanism is that it will not let a good song be buried. It is not to say that it will not be buried 100%, that is too absolute, but it can be said that most good songs will not be buried.

If the quality of a song is good enough, its ranking will continue to rise. As the ranking rises, the exposure will increase. As the exposure increases, if the quality can hold up, the ranking can continue to rise, forming a positive cycle.

That night, some people slept soundly, while others tossed and turned.

Early in the morning.

Beijing, Chang'an Building, Brilliant Entertainment Company.

Music Department, Director Wei Yu's office.

Wei Yu sat behind his desk, his face tense and his expression solemn.

Turning on the computer and entering the webpage of the Tomorrow Youth Network Singer Competition, Wei Yu directly began to look up the rankings of the five artists of his company.

This Director Wei was not afraid of wasting time. Anyway, there was nothing important for the time being, so he started from the 150th place and looked forward.

The entertainment industry's competition for newcomers, the Tomorrow Youth Network Singer Competition can rank in the top three. Newcomers are the future of major entertainment companies. Even the presidents are paying attention to them, and Wei Yu must also pay attention to them.

From the back to the front, check one by one.

"Hey, this kid is really not good. He ranked 113th, which is out of the top 100!"

Wei Yu frowned and shook his head.

Most of the entertainment companies in the entertainment industry are third-rate or even inferior entertainment companies and studios with relatively poor strength. Although these companies have few quotas for each company, the total number is not small. According to past experience, the contestants ranked after the 100th place are basically from these small companies.

This time, someone in the company ranked 113th, which made Wei Yu, who was already in a rather uneasy mood, feel even worse.

Looking down, an artist ranked 63rd.

An artist ranked 42nd.

Wei Yu was sweating profusely on his forehead at this time. There were a total of five quotas in the company, and now three people did not even make it into the top 40.

Last year and the year before, there were people in the company who made it into the top 10!

A picture suddenly emerged in Wei Yu's mind. He was in the president's spacious office and was scolded by the president.

After a shudder, Wei Yu continued to look up.

Finally, he saw another artist, the 19th.

Wei Yu's eyes went dark and he almost passed out.

How he wished he hadn't seen this ranking.

At this moment, among the five artists participating in the competition, only Zhai Quan has not been seen yet. But Wei Yu knows Zhai Quan. A long-time loser in the circle, it is absolutely impossible for him to enter the top 20. If he is not wrong, Zhai Quan should be ranked outside the top 150 at this moment.

"Alas!"

"What can I do now!"

Generally speaking, the ranking results of the last day, even if there is a deviation from the ranking of the first day, will not deviate greatly, so the ranking of the first day is basically closer to the final result.

And now the highest-ranked artist in the company is actually ranked 19th, which is far worse than in previous years. How can he explain to the boss?

Will he be scolded to death by the boss?

Although Mr. Chen does not scold people usually, when he gets angry, it is simply.

"This year is too bad, the highest ranking is not only not in the top ten, but only ranked 19th, alas."

Wei Yu sighed, his face full of melancholy.

While thinking about it, he also wanted to see who those newcomers in the front are.

These people may be the backbone of the Chinese music scene in the future, and as the director of the music department, he will inevitably have to deal with them.

Looking forward one by one.

The tenth place.

The ninth place.

The eighth place.

The seventh place. Name?

Wei Yu was stunned, his eyes suddenly widened, and his face was full of disbelief.

What did he see?

The seventh-ranked song was sung by Zhai Quan.

Song: "Wukong".

Singer: Zhai Quan.

Composer: Tan Yue.

Lyricist: Tan Yue.

If it is just Zhai Quan, there may be a person with the same name, then there is also a Tan Yue behind him!

"Fuck!"

Director Wei, who has always been gentle and refined, couldn't help but swear. This was really beyond his expectation. God has mercy on him. It's something he couldn't think of at all.

"Hahahahaha!"

Wei Yu rubbed his eyes hard, and saw that the names of Zhai Quan and Tan Yue were indeed written on the screen, and he couldn't help laughing immediately.

Only those who have experienced the sadness of falling to the bottom just now can understand the excitement of regaining light at this moment.

Taking a few deep breaths, Wei Yu stared at the song "Wukong". He was too busy before, or he didn't pay attention to the song that Tan Yue wrote for Zhai Quan, so he hadn't listened to it yet.

Zhai Quan, who has been a loser for many years, can achieve such good results. There is nothing to recommend him. So there is no doubt that the key to the problem lies in this song called "Wukong".

Wei Yu moved the mouse and clicked on this song "Wukong".

"The moon splashes on the starry sky, the long road is long,

the wind and smoke are gone, and the lone shadow is fading;

I want this iron rod to make the devil drunk,

I have this change to make the confusion turbid;

trample the spiritual sky, be wanton and unruly,

the world is evil and dangerous, and you can't escape it in the end.

This stick will make you turn into ashes."

After listening to "Wukong", Wei Yu felt a surge of blood rushing to his heart.

What is the Monkey King?

This is the Monkey King!

"Good song!"

"This song is so well written!"

Anyone who really understands music knows that the soul of a song is given by the composer of the lyrics and music, and compared with the two, the status of the composer is higher than that of the lyricist.

This song "Wukong", whether it is the music or the lyrics, is written by Tan Yue.

Wei Yu stood up with an excited look on his face, clenched his hands into fists, and paced back and forth in front of the glass window behind his desk.

"It's a pity that Mr. Tan doesn't make music!"

"The quality of this song is definitely a good song!"

Wei Yu estimated that this song would be very popular! This is the best song he has ever heard about Sun Wukong.

How widely is "Journey to the West" spread? How high is its status in the hearts of Chinese people? How many people think of Sun Wukong as a childhood idol?

In terms of traffic, any so-called top streamer is far from enough.

Wei Yu was in a good mood and was going to talk to his boss and report the good news, but then he thought that the performance of "Wukong" would continue to rise, and it would be better to go to his boss when the performance was better.

A few minutes ago, he was still worried about how to explain to his boss that the company performed so poorly in the Tomorrow Youth Network Singer Competition. A few minutes later, he began to think about how to show his achievements to his boss.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Wei Yu turned around again, picked up his phone, found Tan Yue's number and dialed it.

The phone rang twice, and then it was connected, and Tan Yue's voice came from it.

Chang'an Building, Brilliant Entertainment Company, 59th floor program department, Tan Yue's office.

Zhai Quan sat on the sofa, looking at Tan Yue who was on the phone opposite, feeling a little restless.

After arriving at the company today, he saw that he had actually ranked seventh in the Tomorrow Youth Network Singer Competition. My goodness, his heart almost couldn't bear it and almost fainted.

Then he immediately climbed the stairs to find Tan Yue and report the good news to his beloved teacher Tan.

Just after he finished speaking, Mr. Tan's phone rang.

Tan Yue leaned on the sofa, holding the phone in his hand to his ear, listening to the passionate voice of Wei Yu, the chief director, on the phone. He had just heard this voice and these words from Zhai Quan in front of him.

"Hahaha, it was just a coincidence. I may not be able to write any songs in the future."

"Mr. Wei, you are too polite. No need to thank me."

"Is that so? OK. I was planning to invite Zhai Quan to dinner today. Let's go together."

"Okay, it's settled. Donkey King tonight."

"Haha, see you tonight."

After hanging up the phone, Tan Yue put the phone on the coffee table, smiled and looked at Zhai Quan, saying, "Director Wei of your department wants to treat us to dinner, haha."

Zhai Quan was stunned. The director of their department also wants to treat us to dinner?

"Mr. Tan, is this okay? How about I treat you?" Zhai Quan scratched his head and said.

Tan Yue smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It's okay. Director Wei is rich. Let him treat you."

Zhai Quan sighed and nodded. He was just a small shrimp in the music department. He had to take a detour to see the supervisor before, and he had hardly seen the director.

Now he is actually going to treat himself to dinner. Although Zhai Quan also knows that it should be Mr. Wei who wants to treat Mr. Tan to dinner, and he is just relying on Mr. Tan's help, he is still excited!

A leap in status!

"Mr. Tan, thank you!"

Zhai Quan stood up with a serious face and bowed to Tan Yue.

Tan Yue stood up and helped Zhai Quan up, "Zhai Quan, you are too polite."

Zhai Quan opened his mouth and wanted to say that Mr. Tan was a great help to him, but he felt that it was a bit too polite, so he had to keep all these words in his heart and made up his mind to follow Mr. Tan's pace in the future. .

After saying a few more words, Tan Yue patted Zhai Quan and asked him to go back first and go to Lu Ji for dinner together in the evening.

Beijing TV Station.

The shooting site of the program "My Star Road".

"My Star Road" is an interview program that Beijing TV Station has recently started. Interview programs are the best of Beijing TV Station, and it has also made great efforts to cultivate this "My Star Road" into another ace variety show in the station.

The guest invited in the first episode of the program is Qi Xue, a popular first-line star now.

In the studio backstage, Qi Xue was putting on makeup, with assistant Mo Ting standing behind her. On another chair next to her sat Xu Yao, the chief planner of the "My Star Road" program group.

"Teacher Qi Xue, this is the first episode of our program. We may not be familiar with each other yet, so the progress will be slow. Please forgive me." Xu Yao said politely.

Qi Xue smiled and said, "Teacher Xu, it's okay. When I was filming on the set before, it was much more difficult than this. High-intensity wirework, going down the river in winter, and wearing a cotton jacket in summer are all routine operations."

Xu Yao laughed after hearing this. Qi Xue was easier to deal with than she thought, and she was relieved. As the chief planner of the new program "My Star Road", she naturally hoped that the program would be successful and popular, which was inseparable from the cooperation of the guests.

And a big shot like Qi Xue must be appeased.

Xu Yao smiled and said, "Teacher Qi Xue, we can only have a casual lunch here. I will invite you to try the famous Beijing food in the evening."

Mo Ting, who was standing behind, brightened her eyes and asked curiously, "Teacher Xu, what famous Beijing food? We often eat Beijing roast duck and Beijing steamed buns."

Qi Xue interrupted Mo Ting and said with a smile, "Teacher Xu, don't worry about it. Your station paid me an appearance fee, and I will definitely shoot the show well. Haha, if we want to eat in the evening, let's not go too far, just eat a simple meal."

Xu Yao smiled and said, "You may not have been to this place. It is not very famous, but it is indeed an authentic Beijing dish. It is not far from here. It takes only half an hour to drive there."

Qi Xue raised her eyebrows and asked curiously, "Teacher Xu, which restaurant is this?"

Xu Yao smiled and said, "Lu Ji."
