Chapter 117 New Song for the National Day Gala (Subscribe)

Yang Xue received a reply from Director Yu, and she told Jiang Yu about the finalization of the theme song.

"The director also thinks this song is good. He said he would buy it from you at the highest market price."

When Jiang Yu saw Yang Xue's message, he was also a little confused. Why was the action so fast?

He had thought that a production crew like this might negotiate the price for a theme song. But who could have known that, not long after Yang Xue's words, they'd already responded, and it was the highest price in the market. Tsk tsk, as expected, a major production crew with a large investment in a TV series would pay generously.

"Row."

"After they prepare the contract, I will send it to you."

Yang Xue recalled that the theme song Jiang Yu had sent her just now had the male and female singing parts marked on it. It was obviously a song sung by a man and a woman. She couldn't help but ask another question.

"This song, I see, is a duet between a man and a woman. Can we arrange for a singer to sing it?"

"Oh, yes, if you hadn't mentioned it, I almost forgot. This song is indeed a duet. I think as the female lead, you can sing the female part. You've released songs before, right? This song just happened to be written for you."

Jiang Yu added, "As for the male part, it depends on whether you have suitable singers."

Yang Xue was slightly stunned when she saw Jiang Yu's message.

Written specifically for yourself?
Let me sing the female part?

Yang Xue was a little dazed, but when she saw the song, she did have some ideas. And just like Jiang Yu said, as the female lead, she could indeed sing the theme song. Many film and television dramas would have the leading actors sing.

Originally, Yang Xue subconsciously wanted to refuse, but for some reason, the song "Rewind" that Jiang Yu wrote for Su Muwan came to her mind.

Suddenly, for no apparent reason, Yang Xue felt a surge of emotion. He'd already written it for another woman, so what if she sang the theme song herself? Besides, she was the female lead, so she should be singing it herself.

"Okay, I'll ask then."

At this time, Director Yu sent another message to Yang Xue.

"Xiao Yang, I just saw that the lyrics are for a male and female duet. Do you have any ideas? How about you sing the female part, and I'll let Zhang Hao sing the male part?"

Director Yu felt that Yang Xue and Zhang Hao, the two male and female leads, could sing the theme song. He'd wait and see how it went. If it didn't work out, he'd try to find professional singers. After all, Yang Xue and Zhang Hao were actors. Although Yang Xue had released songs before, she couldn't compare to a professional singer.

When Yang Xue heard that she was going to sing with Zhang Hao, she frowned slightly, but because Zhang Hao was the male and female protagonists, if she wanted to sing, he, the male protagonist, would definitely have to sing as well.

"Let's try it first."

She thought of trying to sing first, and if that didn't work, she would think of other ways.

"Hey, that's what I was thinking. How about this? You two try singing first. If that doesn't work, we can find a professional singer."

After finishing the chat with Director Yu, Yang Xue saw that Jiang Yu had not sent any new messages, so she did not send any more messages.

After not contacting each other for such a long time, Yang Xue couldn't help but click on Jiang Yu's WeChat again and clicked on his circle of friends. The latest post was from Jiang Yu on Mid-Autumn Festival, which was a photo of the moon he took.

Looking at the environment, you can tell it's a hotel.

Suddenly remembering Jiang Yu's life experience, Yang Xue's eyes changed a little.

He still has nowhere to go this year.

In previous years, he had some so-called friends to accompany him, but after the incident this year, he was alone.

In her mind, Yang Xue also recalled the first Mid-Autumn Festival she spent with Jiang Yu. After attending the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala that day, she and Jiang Yu were sitting in the car on their way home. Yang Xue asked him.

"Tomorrow is still two days of holiday. Since you don't have work, why don't you go home and spend time with your parents and family?"

Yang Xue still clearly remembered the sudden dimming of Jiang Yu's gaze when she said this. Only then did she realize that Jiang Yu no longer had parents or family.

That year, Yang Xue did not go back, but accompanied Jiang Yu to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in Zhonghai, and even brought Jiang Yu back home to celebrate the Chinese New Year.

Yang Xue looked at Jiang Yu's circle of friends and continued to read silently, from beginning to end...

……

Time flies, and National Day is just two days away.

Jiang Yu had been staying in the hotel recently, writing novels, practicing songs, and training his voice. Ever since "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" broke the online novel's first-order record, word had spread throughout the online literary community, boosting its reputation and indirectly driving traffic to the novel. Furthermore, after that day, Yuedian even published a site-wide announcement announcing the news.

Now, less than a week after it was put on the shelves, the collection has exceeded 500,000, and the average subscription has exceeded 90,000.

It's only a matter of time before we reach 100,000 average subscriptions. Editor Mingyue even estimates that we'll likely reach that mark around the National Day holiday. The editorial department and the platform's top management are keeping an eye on "Grave Robbers' Chronicles." Based on this trend, the editor-in-chief and others predict that average subscriptions could reach 150,000, with 200,000 being a possibility.

Now, as long as they can maintain stability and not collapse, the average subscription will definitely reach 150,000. And just two days before National Day, when Jiang Yu was chatting with Su Muwan, Su Muwan mentioned that she had been invited to participate in the National Day Gala on CCTV.

"We're going to record singing while walking after National Day. Do you know who the other guests are?"

Jiang Yu now knew that besides himself, there was Su Muwan, and Director Hu had not told him who the other guests were.

Su Muwan didn't know either. Director Hu had mentioned those guests before, and she didn't know who they were after that.

"I don't know either. Director Hu hasn't said anything either."

Jiang Yu had been chatting quite frequently with Su Muwan and Yang Xue lately. Ever since they added each other as friends again, they'd chatted almost every day. While there weren't any deep topics, just songs and work, the feeling of chatting with two exes at once was quite strange.

"Wait a minute, you said you were going to attend the National Day Gala?"

Jiang Yu reacted immediately and saw the message sent by Su Muwan. Jiang Yu grasped the key point.

Su Muwan has already arrived in Beijing and checked into a hotel near CCTV. After all, it is the National Day Gala, so they need to rehearse in advance.

"Yeah, we arrived in the capital this morning. What happened?"

"I have a song that I think is perfect for the National Day Gala. Would you like to try it?"

Even before the show, he was already making money from music. Jiang Yu also felt that this song might change some of the official attitudes toward him. Although he hadn't committed any crime, the officials probably had a negative impression of him because of his past. If he wanted official recognition, or even support, and wanted to appear on the official stage, he would have to change their perception of him.

In other words, there must be something worth showing off that is recognized by the authorities.

It just so happened that he thought it would be perfect to write such a suitable song for Su Muwan to sing on the stage of the National Day Gala.

When Su Muwan heard Jiang Yu say that he had a new song, and that it was suitable for the National Day Gala, she was surprised but still replied.

"The songs to be performed at the National Day Gala need to be reviewed by CCTV. Currently, each guest's program and repertoire have been finalized, so they may not be able to sing."

Su Muwan added, "But I can help you take the song to CCTV for a look. If the song is really good and suitable for the National Day Gala, maybe it will work."

In fact, Su Muwan was also quite curious about what song Jiang Yu was talking about that was suitable for singing at the National Day Gala.

She was quite familiar with CCTV and often participated in its programs and activities, so she had some influence. If the song Jiang Yu mentioned was really possible, she wouldn't mind trying to get it.

"Okay, I'll send you the song first."

After a while, Su Muwan saw Jiang Yu sending the song to her.

She clicked on the song out of curiosity, and as she read from the title to the lyrics, Su Muwan became more and more shocked.

"Wait a moment, I'll send this song to CCTV right away and let them take a look."

Su Muwan typed much faster. She felt that Jiang Yu was not bragging, and she also thought this song was very suitable.

The song was directly forwarded to Director Huang, who was in charge of the evening party at CCTV. Su Muwan was very familiar with Director Huang. She had participated in many CCTV programs before, and Director Huang was in charge of them.

"Director Huang, I have a new song that I think is perfect for the National Day Gala. Please take a look."

Director Huang was arranging the National Day Gala and was stunned when he saw the message Su Muwan sent him.

Any new songs?
Very suitable for performing at the National Day Gala?

Director Huang still admired Su Muwan. He had come into contact with her a lot during the program he was previously responsible for. She was polite, capable, and neither humble nor overbearing. Therefore, Director Huang had a good impression of Su Muwan.

"Xiao Su, there are new songs. Let me take a look."

Wearing glasses, Director Huang, who is in his fifties, has some presbyopia, but he is also nearsighted, so he usually prepares two pairs of glasses.

Director Huang clicked on the song Su Muwan had sent him, and initially thought it was nothing special. He simply thought Su Muwan might have a new song and wanted to use it to promote it at the National Day Gala. That wasn't a bad idea; as long as the song was suitable, there was nothing wrong with promoting it.

But when Director Huang saw the song sent by Su Muwan, his eyes lit up. The more he looked at it, the better he thought the song was.

It seems to be possible.

He immediately replied to Su Muwan: "Xiao Su, I saw the song, it's pretty good, you can sing it at the National Day Gala. I can just ask them to change the program."

Su Muwan's eyes lit up; "Then I'll have to trouble Director Huang."

"It's okay, the song is suitable. Let me ask you something. Did you write this song yourself, Xiao Su? Or was it written by someone else?"

"This song wasn't written by me. It was written by Jiang Yu. Director Huang should know him, right?"
