Chapter 340 0340, The Iceberg Melts

April 1st, sunny, Yuntang Music Studio.

Chen Cheng was in his office, staring at the computer screen with all his concentration, constantly flipping through the new song popularity list on Penguin Music.

First page.

The second page.

The third page.

Finally, on the fourth page, I saw my song "Love Must Have a Last resort". It is currently ranked at the bottom with three or four new songs released today, and the number of purchased downloads is "0".

Chen Cheng's mood at the moment was very complicated, a little embarrassed, a little excited, and a little expectant.

The reason why Yun Feng and Tang Yu agreed to do this was that they did not want to offend their good intentions, and the second reason was that they wanted to express their feelings and attitude to Tan Hui.

"Is this trick really useful? Why do I feel a little..."

Although the love relationship between Yunfeng and Tang Yu was confirmed by the song "Confession Balloon", people are different, and the same method may not work with another person.

Chen Cheng leaned back in his chair and looked at the ceiling in a daze.

a long time.

When he came to his senses, the matter had come to this, and he could only move forward bravely, or he would be benevolent if he failed.

I looked at the computer screen again and found that the song "Love Is Not a Last Resort" that I sang had disappeared.

He quickly clicked the mouse and turned the page forward.

In just ten minutes, the number of purchased downloads exceeded 10,000, and it was ranked on the second page, temporarily ranked 28th.

Chen Cheng knew that this was Yunfeng and Tang Yu's propaganda.

His main purpose of releasing songs was not to enter the music scene or to make money, so he didn't spend money on advertising and promotion.

Moreover, major music platforms, in order to prevent listeners from regretting after buying a song, have a thirty-second listening time for a song. If it sounds good, buy it, and if it sounds bad, don’t buy it.

As for the song "Love Is Unavoidable" he sang, the song is a good song, but the singing is very average. Without Yunfeng and Tang Yu's recommendation, many listeners would 99.99% not buy it after listening to it.

"I hope the character of Xiaoyun and Xiaotang will not be ruined."

Chen Cheng saw that there were hundreds of comments, so he clicked into the comment area and took a look.

[Ocean of Love]: Well...this singing skill is hard to describe in just one word. It's barely at KTV level.

[Wangchuan]: I can still listen to it, mainly because the song has a lot of points added to it, but the singing skills are almost the same.

[The Little Fairy Who Drinks Dewdrops]: How could Yunda’s music studio sign a novice singer like this? I feel like she’s losing money.

[Suiji Hard Transformation]: The face is quite big, written and composed by Yunda, accompanied by the band No. 52 on Fenglin Road.

[Wuyue]: The singer is called "Chen Cheng". Isn't he the former artist manager of Zhanlan Entertainment?

…

What is due will not be late.

Fans of Yunfeng and Tang Yu are showing mercy, but a mere passerby would simply not dare to imagine this.

Chen Cheng's face turned red and he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. It was so embarrassing.

But for the sake of lifelong happiness, I have to risk it all.

At this time, the phone rang. I picked it up and saw that it was my sister Chen Lan calling.

"Tell me the truth, did you sing the song on the new song popularity list?" As soon as the call was connected, Chen Lan was greeted by a question.

"Ah, what...what song?" Chen Cheng asked guiltily, wanting to pretend to be stupid and pass it by.

Chen Lan would not accept his trick, and hummed: "That's it, it's okay, brother, I'm brave, I can actually ask my idol to write songs and provide accompaniment."

Chen Cheng stammered: "Uh... well... sister, if nothing happens, I'll hang up first."

Chen Lan's voice raised an octave and said: "You try hanging one!"

Chen Cheng laughed twice and said, "Sister, I'm really busy here. I'll talk to you again on the weekend."

Chen Lan said lukewarmly: "Look at the calendar, what day is it today?"

Chen Cheng stroked his forehead and said, "Haha, I'm so busy that I forgot about the time."

Chen Lan changed the topic and asked: "I saw a lot of comments saying that you are the 'former artist manager of Zhanlan Entertainment'. What do you mean?"

When Chen Cheng heard this, he knew he could no longer hide it, so he had no choice but to say: "Literally, I have resigned from Zhanlan Entertainment."

Chen Lan asked in confusion: "You have worked hard for so many years and finally got promoted as a manager. How come you just resigned when you said you were leaving?"

Chen Cheng chuckled lightly and said: "We have different paths and we don't want to conspire against each other."

Chen Lan suddenly understood something and exclaimed: "You don't want to enter the music scene, do you?"

Chen Cheng said quickly: "No, alas, to tell you the truth, it's like this..."

He told everything about leaving Zhanlan Entertainment, joining Yuntang Music Studio, and releasing songs to pursue Tan Hui.

Chen Lan was surprised: "You work with my idol?"

Chen Cheng responded with a "hmm".

Chen Lan said excitedly: "Well, now that I want autographs and photos, you have no reason to push back, right?"

Chen Cheng said directly: "Come over one day when you have time, and I will introduce you to each other."

"This is what you said. I will take Miaomiao there with me when the time comes. She always likes those fairy tales in "Snow White"." Chen Lan was so happy that she then said: "Brother, you finally got the idea. By the way, is the Tan Hui you're talking about the one who sang "The Past" at No. 10 on the new song popularity list? Do you have any photos to take home? "

"Stop it, stop it." Chen Cheng was very speechless and said, "I haven't even finished my horoscope yet, sister, please don't say anything else."

Chen Lan hated the iron and said: "Then come on, the boss is not young anymore. My Miaomiao is already in elementary school, and you don't even have a partner yet."

Whenever there is a push for marriage, Chen Cheng complains endlessly and says, "Okay, sister, I'm really busy here, I'm done, I'm done."

Put down the phone.

Now that I am thirty, it’s time for me to work harder.

At the same time, in the next room.

Tan Hui, who had completely settled the past, had completely changed. The melancholy between Chang Gua's brows had been replaced by a faint smile.

She was working on an arrangement list when she received a WeChat message from Tang Yu: "Sister Hui, what do you think of this new song written by Yun Feng?"

Seeing that the sharing link posted later was from Penguin Music, Tan Hui was a little confused. Didn't he say that he would not participate in this year's new song popularity list?

Immediately, put on your Bluetooth headphones and click on the link to play the song.

"It's hard to forget the first time I met you

a pair of charming eyes

Your image in my mind

Can't be dissipated

Hold your hands and feel your tenderness

I'm really out of breath

I want to cherish your innocence

I will be sad to see you being wronged, oh..."

At the beginning, Tan Hui listened with an attitude of appreciation and learning.

The combination of strumming and cutting of the intro guitar is crisp and clean, bringing a strong sense of rhythm, making people naturally sway with the rhythm.

However.

When the first word was sung, she was startled at first, and then after the first line was sung, she knew it was not Yunfeng's song.

But this voice seemed familiar to her.

"It's him?"

Tan Hui seemed to understand something, and her heart, which was already calm, jumped twice without warning.

At this point, the song comes to the chorus.

"I'm just afraid I'll fall in love with you

Don't dare to let yourself get too close

I'm afraid I have nothing to give you

Loving you also requires a lot of courage

I'm just afraid I'll fall in love with you

Maybe one day I can't help myself

Missing you only makes you suffer

I had no choice but to fall in love with you..."

From a professional point of view, there are many flaws in the singing. The real voice has no explosive power in the high notes, the gap between the real voice and the false voice is too big to connect, the ventilation is too frequent and the timing is wrong, etc.

The only advantage may be that the sound is mellow and grounded.

but.

These are not the point, the point is the meaning of the lyrics.

I fell in love with you at first sight, but I feel that I am not good enough for you. I always feel that I am not good at anything. I am very conflicted. I want to be close to you, but I am afraid that I will get deeper and deeper into the situation and be unable to extricate myself.

In fact, how could Tan Hui not know that Chen Cheng had a good impression of her, and that Yunfeng and Tang Yu had created opportunities for them to be alone behind the scenes.

It's just that she locked the door to love at that time and chose to keep her distance.

However, since the release of the song "The Past", the lock on the door has been removed.

"I have no choice but to fall in love with you."

Unconsciously, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Tan Hui's mouth.

After listening to Chen Cheng's song "Love Has to Come" three times in a row, she got up and left the room, knocking on the door next door.

————

"Sister Hui should have finished listening to the song by now, right?"

"almost."

"Do you think it can be successful?"

"It's hard to say. Sister Hui is no longer a little girl who is easily moved. It all depends on people."

"Oh...then you mean that I am a little girl who can be easily moved?"

"Isn't it?"

"Huh, I'm angry."

"I was wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"Everything is wrong."
