I Alone Am Immortal: My Rebirth and Leisurely Cultivation

Chapter 72 The Threshold of Formations
"Darling darling darling"

A woman's humming lingered, without lyrics, just simple humming.

Yet a sense of inner peace spread out.

The entire conference room was quieter than before.

Some people unconsciously loosened their grip on their pens, while others looked up at the tall buildings, white clouds, and blue sky outside the window, and their bad mood from working overtime on Saturday improved considerably.

"This"

Zhao Fei opened his mouth, but then hesitated to speak, thus breaking the current tranquility.

The melody was like a breeze passing through old times, reminding him of the rice paddies of his childhood, chasing butterflies, catching dragonflies, and running around all over the mountains and fields.

When the music ended, an eerie silence remained in the conference room.

The intern asked cautiously, "Manager Zhao, shall we switch to the next song?"

"What are you cutting!"

Zhao Fei slammed his hand on the table, making the coffee cup jump. "Contact the producer immediately! No, I'll contact him myself!!"

He grabbed the file folder, shook out the signature page, and frowned as he stared at the two characters 'Li Yan'.

"This name sounds familiar, like I've seen it somewhere before."

"It's the promotional song for the Snow King that we studied before, by that composer."

One of the group leaders said, with a slight smile on his face, after all, it was the piece he had recommended.

The crowd gasped in surprise. Good heavens, so he writes propaganda songs, huh?

Just then, another group leader stood up and said:
"Manager Zhao, would you like to hear the rest? Even a small-time composer has this talent. We've also invited quite a few talented ones."

"I won't listen!"

Zhao Fei waved his hand impatiently, "That DJ before was quite talented, but what happened next?!"

"It either works or it doesn't. The promotional song for Snow Queen is a great reference!"

After the group leader sat down, another female group leader spoke.

"I also think this song is very good. It's simple but not monotonous, and it's refreshing to listen to. It just so happens that we are also going to make a breakthrough in the touch screen phone market and abandon keypad phones. We need a standout feature to make the public remember us."

"I think the music is good enough. Even if we promote the phone as good, people may not believe it."

"But if even our promotional song is this good, won't people think that the phone will be better?"

After he finished speaking, everyone nodded in agreement, and Manager Zhao was very satisfied.

"Xiao Zhang is right, but Lao Wang's previous suggestion was also correct. You guys continue checking the remaining songs, I'm going to contact Li Yan."

Manager Zhao glanced at the song title on the document in his hand and muttered:

"I caught a cold in that corner, and it was pretty... you know."

······
"Quite interesting."

Li Yan put down "A Brief History of the Universe," a book that seemed very theoretical and indeed was.

However, the author is already using storytelling to describe the changes in the universe.

"Are you interested in cosmology?" Hua Junshu asked.

"I'm interested in things like cosmological conjectures."

Li Yan shook his head, closed the book, and prepared to return it; there was nothing he wanted in it.

The system and time travel both piqued his interest.

"There aren't many universities in China that offer astronomy majors," Hua Junshu said.

"Senior, I didn't intend to pursue further studies in this area."

Li Yan smiled and asked, "By the way, what's your major, senior?"

"law."

Nodding, as expected, Li Yan got up to return the book and asked everyone what they wanted to eat, as it was almost noon.

"No, let's go eat together." Jiang Yingzhu stood up and stretched.

Li Yan glanced at it and then looked away.

Then she looked at Mei Mengqian, her eyes filled with expectation.

I received a glare.

cut.

“I agree,” Mei Mengqian said.

Gan Tiantian also expressed her opinion.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Hua Junshu nodded as well.

As everyone left their seats with their belongings, Li Yan walked unhurriedly down the outer aisle and glanced at the system's mission.

[Establish a deeper connection with Fairy Jiang] (Completed)
Do you want to claim the reward?

Li Yan was quite envious of the basics of formations.

After learning about talismans from the Taoist canon some time ago, he bought a book on feng shui, feeling that it should correspond to formations.

But the system doesn't care at all.

Li Yan suspected that the feng shui book might be fake.

Because he felt that in reality, there was only one, and he didn't know how the system would give him the reward this time.

The books in his home certainly don't qualify for the reward, so this library might be a good testing ground.

The group found a small restaurant, sat down, and ordered their food. When it was Li Yan's turn, his phone suddenly rang.

Li Yan casually selected braised beef to replenish his energy, and at the same time answered the phone.

"Hello, who are you?"

"Hello, hello! You must be Mr. Li Yan, right? I'm Zhao Fei, the marketing manager of Jiejiegao Mobile Phones."

Upon hearing this, Li Yan was taken aback. Was the speed really that fast?

He gave the group a look and walked out.

"Manager Zhao, is it about the song?"

"That's right, that's right, your song is very good. We've passed the test, and we'd like to talk to you."

How should we negotiate?

"That's right, we want to offer 100,000 for the production and usage rights of the songs, as well as exclusive title licenses. That's already a very high price."

"In-person interview?"

Li Yan neither agreed nor disagreed, but the price was unsuitable.

There was a pause on the other end, but it seemed they had expected this.

"Of course, Mr. Li, I will arrive in Huangcheng this afternoon, and we can have a casual dinner together tonight."

Li Yan felt that the other party was quite decisive, so he agreed.

For a song that hasn't been promoted, 10 is indeed a high price to pay as an advertising jingle.

After all, Li Yan wasn't very famous.

However, that's only the right to use the advertisement once.

Li Yan remembered that this song was used by Jie Jie Gao for a long time.

At this time, the other party is probably preparing it for VV or OO phones.

It's clearly not just for a single use; there might be other needs as well.

Considering that both phones sold quite well later on, Li Yan did not intend to simply buy them out.

The other party was trying to scam him, but luckily he had done his research beforehand.

Li Yan returned to the restaurant, and after the meal, everyone went back to the library.

Hua Junshu corrected the morning's homework, and everyone spent the afternoon checking for omissions and making corrections.

However, Hua Junshu did not only give, but also received some rewards.

Li Yan brought his laptop and taught her how to edit and retouch images, which are essential for making videos.

"If you want to make it, senior, you can come to my house if you don't have a computer."

Li Yan paused for a moment, then suggested, "Let's hold our next study group meeting at my house."

Hua Junshu looked up at him and nodded slightly.

"Great!" Jiang Yingzhu exclaimed immediately. "Why don't you come over tomorrow, senior?"

"convenient?"

"What's the big deal? Didn't we say we live on our own?"

Li Yan let them chat amongst themselves, then walked to the book section and clicked to pick up "Introduction to Formations".

[Ding! Reward being distributed!]

Accompanied by a cold, mechanical voice, Li Yan's body was once again controlled by the system, and then he saw himself leave the metaphysics book section and enter...
Materials Science!
The next moment, he held a book titled "Fundamentals of Materials Science" in his hand.

Li Yan: ? ? ?
He was filled with questions, but then realized that things weren't over yet, because the system was still controlling him.

Boom!
I've got another copy of "Introduction to Environmental Science" in my hands.

It wasn't over yet; Li Yan was still walking.

dong dong!

Fractal Geometry: Mathematical Foundations and Applications

Topology

Just when he thought it was over, there was another loud thud!

Introduction to Systems Engineering

[Rewards settled]

Hearing the system's voice, Li Yan looked at the five books in his hand, his expression ferocious.

Is this a beginner's guide to formations?

That's quite a high barrier to entry; it's an interdisciplinary field, isn't it?
Then his brows relaxed abruptly.

"Never mind, it's not my turn to watch anyway."

Li Yan turned around and put the book back. According to the system's correction rules, the things needed for cultivation had to be purchased.

However, the silly system doesn't know that the books here can't be sold.
