How can you ascend to heaven when you are a star?

Chapter 288: Installed
Everyone was a little surprised when they saw the new intern calling Teacher Zhang "Uncle". No one had expected that Teacher Zhang's nephew would join the record production department.

After a brief moment of distraction, everyone couldn't help but start looking forward to it.

Teacher Zhang is such a great songwriter, so this nephew shouldn't be much worse, right? Maybe he'll even surpass his teacher and write more and better songs for singers.

"Teacher Zhang, is he really your nephew?" asked Director Yang Zhengnan.

If so, you can focus on training them in the future.

Zhang Wen glanced at Sister Hong's son. His sister's son was also his nephew, so he forced himself to hold back his vomiting and nodded, "Yes, he really is my nephew."

After hearing this, Sun Di on the side breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on his face became even brighter.

He also didn't expect that his mother's younger brother would actually know his idol Wang Qi, and the relationship between the two seemed to be very good.

If I can study with Wang Qi in the future, it doesn’t matter if I have another uncle.

After all, a real man can adapt to changes in circumstances and can bend and stretch.

"Director, let him follow me. I will take care of him from now on." Wang Qi said as she looked at the new intern. With this nephew, she can contact Teacher Zhang with good reason in the future.

In ancient times, Prime Minister Cao used the emperor to control the princes, and now Wang Qi uses her nephew to control her uncle.

However, it is said that nephews look like their uncles, but why do these two people look nothing alike?

"Well, I'll leave it to you then." Yang Zhengnan said, then turned around and returned to the office.

"yeah!"

Sun Di clenched his fists tightly, feeling that his future as a music producer would definitely be bright. Just thinking about it made him happy.

Soon, the crowd dispersed and the office area returned to normal.

"Teacher Wang, what should I do now?" Sun Di came to his idol with excitement. He couldn't wait to get into work under the guidance of his idol.

It’s best to choose one that is very challenging. If it’s too simple, it’s boring and won’t bring out his talent.

Of course, it would be even better if we could work directly with famous singers.

"You should get familiar with the environment here first and start your official work tomorrow." Wang Qi said after hearing this. The main reason was that she was very sleepy and tired and needed to go home to sleep.

"Ah?" Sun Di's expression froze, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes. He thought he would be able to work right away, but he didn't expect to have to wait until tomorrow.

"What? Didn't you hear that Teacher Wang was going home to catch up on his sleep?" Zhang Wen said unhappily. This kid has no tact at all.

Well, as a young master who loves fashion and has lived a life of luxury since childhood, why would he care about other people's feelings?

Only then did Sun Di remember that Teacher Wang seemed to have just finished overtime, so he said "Oh".

When Zhang Wen saw the listless look on Sister Hong's son's face, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

He had seen Wang Qi working day and night, forgetting to eat and sleep, and hoped that this kid would not cry in the future.

"How about this." Wang Qi couldn't bear to dampen Teacher Zhang's nephew's enthusiasm for work. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I've been busy with Tang Yi's new album recently. I'll take you to see Tang Yi. You can talk to her about the new album, and it will also help her understand your future work content."

"Okay, thank you Teacher Wang." Sun Di said happily.

As a new intern, it is a rare opportunity to be able to participate in the production of a singer's album as soon as I arrive at the company.

I can learn things, get training, and display my talents. It seems that having this uncle is worth it.

"You should go home and rest quickly. I want to see how Tang Yi's new album is progressing, so I'll take him there." Zhang Wen said to Wang Qi.

Seeing the progress of Tang Yi’s new album was fake, the real thing was telling his nephew some things.

"I'm fine." Wang Qi shook his head and opened his eyes wide, trying to make himself look more energetic.

It was a rare opportunity to see this man in the record production department, and she really didn't want to leave just like that. After today, she didn't have to wait until when to see him again.

"Did you bring your cell phone?" Zhang Wen asked.

"I brought it." Wang Qi said as he took out his cell phone from his pocket.

"Open your selfie and look at yourself now. You have dark circles under your eyes, and bloodshot eyes. I'm afraid you'll die suddenly in the recording studio. Go home and catch up on your sleep."

"..."

Wang Qi looked at himself on the phone screen. Not only did he look very tired, but his image was also not very good.

Especially the hair, it looks like a bird's nest on top of the head.

Wang Qi's face suddenly turned red.

The current state of my life really doesn't suit me to be with Teacher Zhang, and it will easily lower my image in Teacher Zhang's mind.

"Then I'll go home." Wang Qi said, and then left quickly. He was worried that staying for even a second longer would leave a bad impression on Teacher Zhang.

Sun Di watched his idol leave and wondered when he would be able to reach Teacher Wang's level.

"Let's go." Zhang Wen said, walking towards the recording studio.

Sun Di came to his senses and hurriedly chased after him, while constantly looking around.

When he was studying abroad, he visited some music companies. After returning to China, he also went to some music companies to apply for jobs. Among the music companies he visited, Tianxi Media's working environment should be ranked in the upper middle level.

Of course, he came here to build a career, not to enjoy himself, but a good working environment can make people feel more comfortable when working.

"Hey, you just..."

As soon as Sun Di opened his mouth, he saw Teacher Zhang's fierce eyes, and was so scared that his hair stood on end. The scene of being lifted up with one hand last time flashed through his mind, so he quickly changed his words.

"Uncle...Uncle, who is Tang Yi you just mentioned? How come I have never heard of this person?"

"You're studying abroad, so it's normal you haven't heard of her." Zhang Wen retracted his gaze and said calmly, "She debuted in April this year and is an absolute new singer. But don't underestimate her. Her singing skills are very good. Her new song 'Human World' has been on the music platform charts for over two months..."

"I heard this song, it turns out she was the one who sang it." Sun Di showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

He was watching short videos when he accidentally heard the background music. He thought the music was very nice and the lyrics were very well written, so he searched for it and saved the song.

As for who the singer was, he really didn't pay much attention.

"Have you heard this song?" Zhang Wen asked casually.

"Yeah, I've heard of it. I first saw it on my phone, and then I often heard it in bars, internet cafes, restaurants, and billiard halls. It's quite popular."

"You're a music student, what do you think of this song?"

"The melody of this song is exquisitely arranged, without excessive embellishment, simple and smooth, with rich layers. The most outstanding part is the lyrics, which are full of poetry and complement the melody, which can resonate strongly with the audience..."

Sun Di wanted to show off his expertise, so he kept talking about his opinions. While he was talking, he looked over complacently, as if asking: Is my analysis awesome?

"I didn't expect you to think so highly of this song," said Zhang Wen.

"You are an outsider and may not understand it very well. Both the lyrics and the music of this song are very rare masterpieces. Even though only half a year has passed this year, I bet that this song will definitely become one of the top ten golden songs of the year." Sun Di said confidently.

But at this point, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said excitedly, "Since the person singing this song is Tang Yi, do you think the composer of this song is also from our record production department?"

"He is not from the record production department, but he is indeed a member of the company," said Zhang Wen.

"Really?" Sun Di immediately took out his mobile phone from his pocket and checked who was the composer of the song "Human World".

In the past, he was a student and only focused on the song itself. Now that he has come to Tianxi Media and become a colleague with the singer and composer of this song, how can he not meet him?

Maybe there would be a chance to exchange ideas and learn from each other. After all, a good music producer also needs to be able to compose songs. He searched online and information about the song "Human World" immediately appeared before his eyes.

Lyricist: Zhang Wen.

Composer: Zhang Wen.

Arranger: Wang Qi, Zhang Wen.

"This guy named Zhang Wen is amazing. He wrote all the lyrics and music..."

Sun Di had just said half of his words when he suddenly realized something. He turned to look at the man in front of him, and his eyes changed from confusion to surprise.

"You, did you write this song?"

He remembered, wasn't this man called Zhang Wen?

"Well, I wrote it. Sorry to make you envious." Zhang Wen admitted it and stopped pretending.

"..."

Sun Di was speechless.

It turns out that the person I was praising for so long was right next to me.

It is said that invisible pretense is the most deadly, and this time this person really succeeded.

He really wanted to discuss the creative ideas and process of the song "Human World" with the other party immediately, but when he thought of the unclear relationship between the other party and his mother, he felt very uncomfortable.

Besides, wouldn't it be embarrassing to ask for advice now after I just said that the other party is an amateur?
He rolled his eyes and decided to suppress the other party to save his face.

"Actually, I think Jiang Li's new album's title song, 'New Life,' is even better than 'Human World.' Not only is its style very unique, but it also incorporates a variety of elements, maintaining its popularity while adding a fresh feel... Have you heard this song?"

"I've heard of it." Zhang Wen said.

"What do you think of this song? Is it better than 'Human World'?" Sun Di asked with a smile.

"I won't comment."

"why?"

"Because I also wrote this song, how can I review my own work? If I say it's good, it feels a bit like Wang Po boasting about her own work. If I say it's bad, it feels a bit hypocritical. I should give the right to comment to the audience."

"..."

Sun Di's body froze, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Is this the same person who wrote "New Life"?

real or fake?

How could this person be able to work with a big name like Jiang Li?
He lowered his head and started searching online again.

When I saw the information about the song "New Life", I was stunned.

Lyricist: Zhang Wen.

Composer: Zhang Wen.

Arranger: Wang Qi, Zhang Wen.

It’s exactly the same as the song “Human World”.

That's not right. Didn't my mom say this guy was a trainer and psychologist? When did he become a pop musician?
He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, suspecting that he was seeing things.

However, when he looked at the phone screen again and confirmed that the information displayed on it had not changed, his psychological defenses collapsed.

"Uncle, wait for me!"

Sun Di quickly chased after him, looking carefully at the other person's face.

It seems... not so annoying.

"Uncle, can you tell me what you were thinking when you wrote these two songs?" Sun Di asked excitedly, his voice trembling and a hint of admiration in his eyes.

I no longer care about face or anything like that.

As for the relationship between the other party and my mother, it must be a pure sister-brother relationship, without any ambiguity.

Zhang Wen glanced at his eldest nephew.

What do you think?

Of course, I'm thinking about making more money.

Is it possible to express one's aspirations through song?
"With your current level, it's difficult for me to explain this kind of high-end creation to you. Even if I tell you, you won't understand it, just like a primary school student listening to advanced mathematics. Wait until you study with Wang Qi for a few more years, then I will tell you." Zhang Wen said.

After hearing this, Sun Di did not feel looked down upon, because the two of them were indeed not on the same level now, and the other party was much higher than him.

It's like a novel about cultivating immortals.

How could he, who is in the Qi Refining stage, understand the cultivation methods of the Yuanying stage?
Even if you tell him, he still won't understand, let alone be able to practice, because there are several major realms between them.

"Okay uncle, I will study hard and work hard." Sun Di said seriously.

He now has another wish. He used to want to be a music producer like Wang Qi, but now he also wants to be an excellent lyricist and composer like his uncle, writing golden songs and divine songs.

Zhang Wen brought his eldest nephew to the recording studio.

Tang Yi was revising the lyrics. When she saw Teacher Zhang coming, she immediately stood up and greeted him joyfully.

"Teacher Zhang, why are you here? Aren't you busy today?"

"Come back and see how your new album is progressing." Zhang Wen said with a faint smile.

After not seeing each other for a long time, she looks much more beautiful. Of course, this beauty is not a change in facial features, but a change in temperament.

As he participated in more shows, he seemed more mature. His every move revealed a calm temperament, and he was no longer as cramped as when he first debuted.

She's becoming more and more like a star

Zhang Wen pointed at Sun Di behind him and introduced him, "This is Sun Di, the new intern in the record production department. He will be working with Wang Qi from now on. He's also my nephew."

Tang Yi smiled slightly, nodded politely, and took the initiative to introduce herself, "Hello, my name is Tang Yi, and I'm Teacher Zhang's student."

"student?"

Sun Di was stunned.

In the entertainment industry, teacher is a polite title that transcends the traditional definition of a profession and becomes a way to express respect and recognition.

Whether it is a senior predecessor or someone with outstanding achievements in a certain field, they can be respectfully called a teacher. They can be actors, singers, screenwriters, directors...

He just heard Tang Yi call the man in front of him Teacher Zhang, and thought it was just like he called Wang Qi Teacher Wang. He didn't expect that the two of them were actually in a teacher-student relationship.

He was also wondering how a hit song like "Human World" could come from a new singer. Now it seems that this was a debut gift from the teacher to the student, paving the way for the student.

This uncle seems to be a good person!
