My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

Xia Bei, in the principal's office.

"Ding--"

Ke Renyi, who was resting with his eyes closed, opened them, opened his email, and a smile appeared on his face the next second.

"It's finished by 4 pm? That's pretty fast. No wonder he's a genius at composing. You get what you pay for, that's definitely true."

Ke Renyi clicked play, and as the light, instrumental music began to play, his smile gradually froze on his face.

This piece of music...

It's not that it's bad, but it just gives Ke Renyi a feeling that he's not quite suited to promotional videos.

Before returning from the filming location, he had seen the reshot footage and even sketched out the general outline of the final product in his mind.

This piece of music... doesn't quite fit.

However, Ke Renyi didn't think much of it. Feelings are just feelings, and such vague things are never as direct as facts.

Furthermore, he doesn't understand music, so it's not impossible that the final product might be unexpectedly good.

After pausing the broadcast, Ke Renyi dialed Li Mao's number.

"Li Mao, how's the promotional video production going?"

"Very smooth."

Li Mao's voice was filled with excitement, "Principal Ke, the two students from Xia Bei are so good-looking! The final product far exceeded my expectations. It makes me want to go back to being eighteen and experience school life again."

"Ha ha……"

Ke Renyi grinned from ear to ear, "By the way, the background music is ready. I'll send it to your email now. You don't need to hang up the phone, just listen to it first."

"Row."

Footsteps came through the phone, followed shortly by the sound of typing, and then music came through the phone to Ke Renyi's ears.

It was still early, so he wasn't in a hurry and patiently waited for Li Mao to finish listening.

The second time he listened, Ke Renyi felt an even stronger sense of incompatibility, and his brows furrowed from time to time.

The music stopped after three or four minutes.

Li Mao's voice followed immediately, "Principal Ke, this music..."

The hesitation in his tone was quite obvious.

Ke Renyi narrowed his eyes. "It's alright, just give the truthful evaluation."

After some deliberation, Li Mao revealed his thoughts: "I have also accumulated a lot of experience in producing promotional videos for universities."

"In my opinion, this piece of music not only doesn't match the footage we're shooting, but to put it bluntly, it's completely unsuitable for a university promotional video. It's a bit too trendy and doesn't fit the element of youth."

Upon hearing this, Ke Renyi sighed deeply, "To be honest, I felt the same way when I heard it just now."

Li Mao gave a wry smile. "At the current pace, the promotional video will be completed in another hour, around 5 p.m., and the background music timing will also take about an hour."

Ke Renyi frowned, his fingers tapping unconsciously on his office desk. "That means we only have six hours left. It's practically impossible to find someone to remake a suitable background music in that time."

Li Mao chimed in, "That's right, but if we miss tonight, we'll miss the university promotional video day. Then, Xia Bei will probably have to compete with celebrities in the entertainment industry for viewership..."

"Okay, I understand the situation. Let's contact the arranger first and see if he has any solutions."

"Alright, then that's settled."

After hanging up the phone, Ke Renyi opened the first drawer on his left, took out a business card, and dialed the number on the card.

"Hello, I'm Zhou Yi, the assistant to arranger Nanfeng. How can I help you?"

Ke Renyi got straight to the point and introduced himself, "Hello, Assistant Zhou, I am Ke Renyi, the principal of Xiabei."

Upon learning Ke Renyi's identity, Zhou Yi on the other end of the phone immediately guessed the purpose of Ke Renyi's call, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty. "Principal Ke, the background music has been sent to your email. This instrumental piece took Nanfeng several days to work on..."

"Assistant Zhou, this piece of music is very good."

Just as Zhou Yi breathed a sigh of relief, Ke Renyi's voice continued, "However, it doesn't quite fit the theme of our school's promotional video."

"Not relevant to the topic?"

Zhou Yi's heart tightened. "Principal Ke, surely not?"

"Nanfeng produced this instrumental piece according to Xia Bei's requirements. It's youthful and beautiful. I've listened to that piece a few times, and I think it's pretty good."

"If it doesn't meet the requirements, it doesn't meet the requirements."

As the client, Ke Renyi wasn't very polite. Most importantly, the song clearly didn't fit the theme of 'youthful beauty,' yet the other party insisted on lying through their teeth.

The piece cost a million. After spending so much money, all we got was background music that didn't fit the theme, plus the other party's attitude. Anyone would be angry.

Zhou Yi also sensed the dissatisfaction in Ke Renyi's tone and gave an awkward smile, "If Principal Ke is not satisfied with this piece, I will inform him after Nanfeng wakes up and ask him to revise it."

Ke Renyi was extremely displeased. "Assistant Zhou, if I remember correctly, the contract clearly states that the background music production must be completed before 6 PM today."

"It's already a little past four in the afternoon, and there are less than two hours left. Are you sure you want to wait for Nanfeng to wake up?"

Seeing Ke Renyi bring out the contract, Zhou Yi's words became more confident. "Principal Ke is joking. That's what's written in the contract, but there's also an additional condition: as long as the music we provide has no quality issues, Xia Bei has no right to make any demands on us."

After saying that, she laughed and said, "Nanfeng's music is definitely of high quality. If Principal Ke thinks the music is not good enough, we can find professional arrangers in the industry to evaluate it."

"no need."

Ke Renyi's expression darkened slightly. "Give me a refund."

He has lived for over fifty years and has never seen anything.

As a rising talent in music arrangement, Nanfeng has gained a lot of popularity in recent years and is considered a top figure in the music arrangement circle. Who would be so bored as to offend Nanfeng?

I took the music composed by Nanfeng to other arrangers for evaluation, but they didn't even want to use it.

Ke Renyi didn't bother to expose the other party's little tricks. After all, it's always good to leave room for maneuver, so that you can meet again in the future.

According to the previously signed contract, if Xia Bei is not satisfied with the music produced by Nan Feng, he can relinquish his right to use it and request a refund.

Of course, it's impossible to get a full refund; only 70% can be refunded, which is 700,000. The remaining 300,000 is considered Nanfeng's labor cost.

Since it's inappropriate, forcing its use will only result in a poor outcome.

Ke Renyi was well aware of this.

Zhou Yi was very surprised by Ke Renyi's decision. "A refund?"

"Principal Ke, you must be joking with me, right? Since Nanfeng debuted, she has worked with countless celebrities and has always maintained a 100% positive rating on customer orders. If you choose to refund now, wouldn't that be ruining Nanfeng's reputation?"

Even Ke Renyi, known for his good temper, was amused by Zhou Yi's words. "Assistant Zhou, please understand this: I am the buyer, and a refund is my right."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Zhou Yi was stunned when she heard the phone call end. She stood there for a while, then suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation and rushed upstairs to wake up Nanfeng, who was resting.

With bloodshot eyes and an extremely low mood, Nanfeng said, "Xiaoyi, I think I need to get a new assistant. From now on, you can stay at home."

Zhou Yi's face turned pale, and she said in a trembling voice, "Nan...Nanfeng, something important has happened."

Nanfeng's impatience was written all over his face. "What could be more important than my health? Go downstairs and don't disturb my rest."

After saying that, he pulled up the blanket and prepared to go back to sleep.

Zhou Yi's eyes darkened. "Xia Bei... opted for a refund."

"Refund is fine..."

Nanfeng was halfway through her sentence when she suddenly sat up abruptly on the sofa. "Refund? Are you kidding me? Why should I get a refund?"

Zhou Yi lowered her head humbly, "Principal Xia Bei said... the piece of music does not meet their requirements for the theme, but the piece of music sent to Xia Bei is the most fitting piece of youth and beauty in their inventory. I really can't find a more suitable one."

Can I get a refund if it doesn't fit the theme?

Nanfeng threw off the blanket, her furious expression and bloodshot eyes from staying up all night making her look particularly ferocious.

"Once a customer chooses to refund an order, it will automatically be classified as a bad review, which will cause my customer account to lose its 100% good review label. Xia Bei is clearly doing this on purpose to scam me. His heart is so dirty!"

Chapter 479 New Roommate

"Today is a good day..."

Lin Mo hummed a little tune as he returned to his dormitory. As soon as he opened the door, he noticed two unfamiliar figures inside.

Bi Yuntao was still the same as always, leaning against the headboard and holding his phone.

Lin Mo glanced casually at Bi Yuntao's phone screen, and as expected, it was still a chat page. He felt a little amused and exasperated.

No, is this guy really that... infatuated?

One or two times is one thing, but since yesterday afternoon, Lin Mo has seen this situation no less than five times. Such a short period of time and such a high frequency.

Cattle!

"hello."

As Lin Mo's voice rang out, the two boys who were making their beds got up and turned around. One of the boys wore black-rimmed glasses and had very short hair, giving him the impression of an honest person at first glance.

The moment he saw Lin Mo, he couldn't help but tense up. He wiped his right hand on the sheet and awkwardly extended his hand, "Y-hello, my name is Cheng Fei."

"Hello, my name is Lin Mo."

After shaking hands with Cheng Fei, Lin Mo looked at another boy. Compared to Cheng Fei, this boy had a shrewd look, was slightly chubby, and had small, darting eyes.

Profiteer!

Lin Mo didn't know why those two words suddenly popped into his mind, but the boy in front of him looked... truly a perfect fit for the word 'shady businessman'.

"Hello, my name is Lin Mo."

"Money is plentiful."

Upon hearing this name, Lin Mo's lips twitched subtly.

How much money?

That name... is awesome!

Qian Duoduo stared at Lin Mo's face for several seconds, then said, "Bro, you're pretty awesome!"

Lin Mo smiled modestly, "You flatter me, you flatter me."

The phrase "looks amazing" is usually considered the highest compliment among guys. It's generally used to describe very beautiful girls and rarely used to describe guys.
