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

Chapter 69 Treasure Boy
In March, the weather turned warmer, and even the wind was no longer as cold as my stepmother's face.

Ladies who love beauty can't wait to change out of their heavy clothes. Stockings have become the mainstream in the streets and alleys, adding a bit of spring to the city.

Zhang Wen came to the company wearing sunglasses, not because the sun outside was too strong, but because he would not be discovered when looking at beautiful women.

"Good morning, Teacher Zhang!"

While waiting for the elevator, a pleasant voice sounded beside me.

Zhang Wen's gaze shifted from the yoga pants in front to the black stockings beside her. The legs looked very familiar, as slender as chopsticks. It should be Wang Qi, the music producer of the record production department.

He slowly looked up and guessed correctly.

"Good morning, Teacher Wang." Zhang Wen greeted the other party, but his eyes moved downwards.

"By the way, Tang Yi's song has been recorded. Do you want to come to my place to listen to it?" Wang Qi's eyes sparkled, like a hunter looking at his prey.

"Okay."

Zhang Wen had heard Tang Yi singing a cappella and also heard the music arranged by Wang Qi, but he had never heard the combination of the two.

Wang Qi was overjoyed to see the man agree. He opened up and began to talk fluently, "I heard you're Tang Yi's mentor? I've been recording for Tang Yi these past few days and I've discovered she has a truly excellent voice. Whether it's high notes, mid-range notes, or low notes, she can handle them all, and she understands many things instantly. I don't understand why she's been a trainee for four years..."

Zhang Wen thought: If you have anxiety, you will definitely not want to make your debut.

The two came to the recording studio, Wang Qi handed the headphones to Zhang Wen, then found the recorded song and clicked to play.

After the melodious prelude, Tang Yi's voice rang in my ears.

"Walking on this road of the world, watching the sunrise and sunset..."

“The wind of time keeps blowing, but the dream in my heart remains undiminished…”

"People come and go in the streets and alleys, and stories are told in every corner..."

"The sea of life rises and falls, and we seek our belonging in the waves..."

"..."

Zhang Wen closed his eyes and immersed himself in the song.

He thought about a lot of things: life, work, dreams, every little detail emerged one by one.

Great grandfather is so talented!
As the headphones returned to silence, the song ended.

Zhang Wen took off his headphones, and his whole soul seemed to have been baptized.

At this moment, he finally felt the charm of music.

"How is it?" Wang Qi asked expectantly.

"I think it will definitely be a big hit!" Zhang Wen said seriously after hearing it.

Isn’t it said that the copyright fees for popular songs alone can reach millions every year?
So, it must be a big fire!

Wang Qi was very happy to receive a positive answer. He nodded and said, "I think so too. I think this song will definitely become one of the top ten hits this year."

The Top Ten Golden Songs is hosted by the China Music Association and jointly participated by multiple media outlets and websites. It selects the ten most popular songs of the year based on a number of key data indicators such as playback volume and download volume.

It represents the popularity and influence of the song, and is an honor that every musician desires.

After hearing this, Zhang Wen asked curiously, "Didn't you get it before? Why are you so happy?"

Wang Qi shook his head. "It's different. The song I composed only ranked seventh, but your song has the potential to hit number one."

"Is there any reward for being the first?" Zhang Wen was more concerned about this question.

"Of course, there is a trophy and certificate of honor issued by the Music Association."

"Gone?"

"What else do you want?"

"..."

Zhang Wen was completely speechless.

What's the point of a trophy or certificate? You can't use it, eat it, or even buy pancakes.

The first place winner of the high school campus singing competition can also receive a thermos.

Not interesting!
"Teacher Zhang." Wang Qi opened his mouth, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Is there something?" Zhang Wen was about to leave, but when he heard the other party's voice, he stopped.

"You..." Wang Qi thought for a while, and finally couldn't help but asked eagerly, "Do you want to take another nine steps?"

"what?"

"Didn't you create this song after taking nine steps? Can you take nine steps here and create another song?" Wang Qi said what was in his heart. "Why, are you planning to debut too?" Zhang Wen asked curiously.

"No, I just really like the songs you composed, that's all." Wang Qi's cheeks were slightly red, and there was some shyness in her eyes, just like a little fan girl.

This was the first time she heard a song that resonated so deeply with her soul, and it was a heart-warming feeling.

"No time." Zhang Wen refused decisively

"Ah?" Wang Qi was stunned and looked at the other person.

Isn't this quite leisurely?

Besides, how long does it take to walk nine steps?
Zhang Wen said seriously, "I'm a training teacher. My job is to train excellent trainees for the company. Songwriting is just my hobby. If everyone makes me walk nine steps like you, wouldn't that be a waste of time? I still enjoy teaching and educating people. Goodbye."

After saying that, he turned and walked out of the recording studio.

Wang Qi stared blankly at the back until the door closed, then he came to his senses.

She licked her dry lips and swallowed: He has personality, I like it.

……

Zhang Wen returned to the training department. As soon as he entered, he saw someone standing next to his workstation. It was Tang Yi.

The other person sometimes bit his lip, sometimes frowned, and kept looking at his phone, as if something urgent happened.

"Looking for me?" Zhang Wen walked over and asked.

Tang Yi was startled and shuddered all over. When he saw that the person coming was his mentor, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Teacher Zhang, I have good news for you. The song you composed, 'Human World,' will be released on major music and short video platforms at 10 a.m. today as a promotional song for the TV series 'Mortal Stories.' You must pay attention."

At this moment, Tang Yi was both nervous and excited.

Four years, a full four years of trainee career, finally made her debut today. The feeling of her dream finally coming true made her heart unable to calm down at all.

So after she arrived at the company, she came to see Teacher Zhang first, because only when she was with Teacher Zhang could she feel more at ease.

"Oh?"

Zhang Wen was stunned.

He knew that Legs Spirit had already made an appointment with a production company, but he didn't expect the song to be released so soon. However, on second thought, Legs Spirit seemed to have said that the TV series would be broadcast in March, and today was the first day of March. If it didn't go online soon, it would be too late.

Zhang Wen took out his cell phone and checked the time. He had just been in the record production department for a while and it was already half past nine.

In other words, the song "Human World" will be released in half an hour.

He sat back at his workstation, turned on his computer, logged into major mainstream music platforms, and found that the homepages of these websites were full of promotional advertisements for the song "Human World".

"The promotional song "Human World" for the TV series "Mortal Stories" will be released at 10 o'clock, so stay tuned!"

What a grand gesture!
Zhang Wen thought.

There are so many music websites, all of which are advertising the song "Human World". How much advertising money must it cost?

"It seems that the company values you very much." Zhang Wen turned around and said to Tang Yi behind him.

He was very happy because the more popular the song "Human World" became, the more copyright fees he would get.

Tang Yi smiled shyly, "I have to thank Agent Gao for this. She was the one who secured some publicity fees from the producers."

Zhang Wen was stunned. He didn't expect that woman to be so reliable.

"Are you waiting for the new song to be released?"

At this time, Xu Qingyu came over from the office.

"Hello, Director Xu!" Tang Yi stood straight, his expression meticulous.

Xu Qingyu patted Tang Yi's shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous. The TV series 'Mortal Stories' has been promoting since the beginning of the new year. Plus, the male and female protagonists are popular young actors and actresses, which will bring traffic to your song. The performance will be good."

After hearing this, Tang Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Qingyu then turned his gaze towards Zhang Wen. "Teacher Zhang, if no one had mentioned it to me, I wouldn't have known that Tang Yi's debut song was composed by you."

"Aren't we just trying to give you, Director Xu, a surprise?" Zhang Wen said.

Xu Qingyu smiled and stared at the other person with burning eyes.

Another surprise?

What a treasure boy!
