Honkai Impact 3rd: Join Anti-Entropy at the start and dominate the entertainment industry.

Chapter 258: It’s very simple to fill it out next time

Eden had been away from the company for a long time; she and Ellie had started their vacation three days ago.

At this moment, she was shopping with Ellie at the mall, buying a large amount of New Year's goods and gifts for Golden Garden.

She could have easily had these things delivered to Golden Garden with a simple phone call, but Ellie preferred the pleasure of choosing them herself, so Eden had no choice but to come along with her.

The two had bought a lot of things and were in a clothing store when Eden received a call. Seeing that it was Mei, he pressed the answer button.

"Mei, what's wrong? Oh, sorry, wait a minute. Ellie, do you like these clothes? Okay, please pack them all up for me. Here's my card, but Ellie, you can keep it. Just swipe it on whatever you like. What's wrong, Mei?"

Hearing the sounds on the other end of the phone, Mei was both amused and exasperated. Whenever Eden went out with Ellie, the shop owners would be overjoyed. The two of them would buy a huge amount of things almost every time, practically emptying the mall. They would have to hire a truck to transport the goods each time, and the New Year's gifts would almost fill the entire house.

Mei smiled and shook her head, then quickly recounted what had happened in detail and expressed her wish that Eden could provide a song to fill the void.

"The singer's song release plan has already been laid out, it would be a real shame to give it up."

After listening to what Mei said, Eden thought for a moment and ultimately refused Mei's request.

"I'm sorry, but this time the opponent is different, so releasing two songs wouldn't be appropriate."

Hearing this, Mei wasn't too surprised; she had already anticipated this situation.

With three top-tier singers competing on the same stage, releasing two songs suddenly does indeed disrupt the fairness.

"Well, there's nothing we can do then. If it really doesn't work out, we'll just have to give up this spot. Our company's remaining composers probably don't have any more suitable songs to come up with."

Eden thought for a moment and then suddenly said, "If all else fails, you can try collaborating with outside composers. I do have someone in mind, but I don't know if they still have any in stock."

"A composer outside the company? Who is that person?"

“Musical tone”.

"Find Qu Yin?" Mei was quite surprised. "Can he do it? Isn't he only a B-level?"

"Although he is only classified as B-rank, his strength is still very strong."

"It's rare for you to agree with someone so much, but he's from Anti-Entropy, right? Is he willing to cooperate with us, Chasing Fire?"

“As far as I know, he doesn’t care about the two companies,” Eden laughed. “Didn’t he work with Qianjie before? That time it was very successful.”

"It seems there really is such a thing." Mei also realized. "In that case, it's definitely worth a try. Could you help me contact Qu Yin and ask her?"

"That's not a problem, but I can't guarantee it will work out."

"It's okay, there's no worse outcome anyway, we can just give up. If he can produce a high-quality song, I can give him the commission of an S-level composer."

After Eden hung up the phone, Ellie leaned closer and asked with a face full of curiosity:

"What's wrong? What did you talk about? I think I heard the name of the melody?"

Eden glanced at Ellie with a hint of speechlessness. Whenever Qu Yin's matter was mentioned, this little girl would come over and ask all sorts of questions. Her concerned appearance made Eden feel inexplicably jealous.

"It's nothing major, it's just that Mei wants to ask Xiao Qianqu to sing a song, but the time is a bit tight, and we don't know if Xiao Qianqu can agree." Eden asked Ai Li, "Ai Li, you're quite familiar with Xiao Qianqu, do you know he has any songs?"

"Ellie doesn't know."

"Okay, I'll just call and ask." Eden dialed Bai Qianqu's number directly. The call was answered quickly, but the environment on the other end seemed to be very noisy, with the voices of several girls.

"The zombies are charging up here, what are you still doing planting sunflowers down there? Go smash them with squash!"

"Silly little rabbit, don't you even know how much money you have left? Can you afford it? How about we sell you for scrap metal?"

"Hehehe, as expected, it takes the intervention of this savior! These demon minions from the dark world are nothing but a bunch of chickens and dogs! Go! Thunderous Crimson Flame Hell Twin-Headed Explosive Cherry! Blast them to death!"

"Ah!!! A zombie rushed in from below! It ate Teacher Bai's brain!"

"Oh dear! Next time, fill out the very simple one!"

Hearing the voice on the other end, Eden's lips twitched.

How did Xiao Qianqu end up in a den of girls? And judging from their voices, they all seem to be very cute girls.

"Teacher Eden?"

Upon hearing this, Eden snapped out of his reverie: "Sorry to bother you, Chiku. You sounded like you were busy?"

"It's nothing," Bai Qianqu put down the controller, which was then snatched away by Jiu Xiao. He also took the opportunity to leave the sofa and stand by the window, watching the girls arguing about their strategies. He couldn't help but smile. "I was playing with some friends, and we just finished."

Ellie leaned closer to the phone and pouted.

"Little Chiku, you played games without Ai Li! Ai Li is angry! I'm not getting you a New Year's present this time!"

Bai Qianqu was quite embarrassed: "Ah, is Ai Li here too? I'm sorry, I'll bring the game over for you to play next time, don't be angry."

Ellie chuckled: "Hehe, just kidding. How could Ellie be angry with you? As long as Xiao Qianqu is still thinking of Ellie, Ellie is happy."

Eden laughed and said, "Yes, Ellie ran around several streets today just to pick out a gift you like."

"Oh dear, I just wanted to give Chiku a surprise, so don't tell anyone now."

Bai Qianqu felt a warmth in her heart.

"Thank you, Ellie. I'll also prepare a gift for Ellie."

Eden asked, half-jokingly, "Do I have one?"

Bai Qianqu said very seriously, "Of course, I will prepare a surprise gift for everyone."

"Haha, then I'll be looking forward to your surprise." Eden laughed. "Oh, by the way, there's something important I need to tell you on this phone call today."

Eden quickly recounted the incident to Bai Qianqu.

Bai Qianqu was somewhat surprised to hear that the other party wanted to ask her to sing a song.

He didn't expect that Zhu Huo would want to cooperate with him. Zhu Huo's recent situation is not good, and a large part of it is because of him.

However, the price offered by the other party was indeed good, an S-level revenue share, which meant that all the subscription revenue from the songs would be theirs!

However, just to be on the safe side, Bai Qianqu still asked cautiously, "Writing a song for Qianjie is no problem; I have some in stock. But is this appropriate?"

Chapter 259: The Prelude to the Spring Festival

“What’s wrong with it?” Eden said calmly. “Just treat it as a regular custom order. There are no restrictions on the subject matter, so it’s fine. Even if the song doesn’t suit Qianjie, I will find a suitable singer. You can rest assured as long as the quality is guaranteed.”

Seeing Eden say that, Bai Qianqu felt relieved: "Okay, then I'll send you the song first, and you can take a look."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you." Eden was also very happy to have the matter settled. "If you're free tomorrow, come to the Golden Garden and bring it to me. Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've seen Bronya and the others. Let's bring them along for lunch. We bought a lot of ingredients today, so Qianjie can really show off his skills."

Ellie got excited too: "And another thing! The new version of Werewolf that Qianqu mentioned last time! I want to play it tonight!"

“Okay, no problem.” Bai Qianqu readily agreed.

After hanging up, Bai Qianqu noticed Bronya giving him a questioning look, so he took the initiative to say:

"It's Teacher Eden. She asked me to sing a song on behalf of Zhu Huo and also invited us to go to the Golden Courtyard together."

"Zhu Huo asked you to write a song?" Bronya frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. Although Bai Qianqu was a contracted composer with Anti-Entropy, it wasn't wrong for him to take on commissions outside, as long as it didn't interfere with the tasks assigned by the company.

However, the person who asked Bronya to sing was Zhu Huo, which was somewhat difficult for Bronya to understand.

Based on what happened before, shouldn't Zhu Huo hate Qu Yin to death?

Bai Qianqu shrugged, indicating that she didn't know.

However, since it was Eden who spoke, he naturally wouldn't refuse. After all, he might not believe in Zhu Huo, but he believed in Eden.

At this moment, everyone learned of Eden's invitation and their eyes lit up with anticipation.

Little Rabbit: "That's great! I've heard that the Golden Courtyard is the most luxurious manor in the world, and only invited people can enter. I never thought I'd be invited one day!"

Hill (Black): "Wake up! Eden invited Teacher White and Sister Bronya. We were just there on the side."

Seele (in white): "That's Teacher Eden, a world-class superstar! Not only is she beautiful, but she's also incredibly talented and a single beauty! I was fortunate enough to see one of her concerts, and I still remember one of her quotes—'Entertainment will eventually die, but art will not!'"

Bai Qianqu scratched her head: "Really? Are you all fans of Teacher Eden?"

"Of course! Who doesn't idolize Eden these days?" Jiuxiao joined the conversation. "Even I, the savior, have to admit Eden's strength. She's a legendary powerhouse. If she could become a partner, she would definitely be the brains of the team! That's right, she's the Sage!"

Bai Qianqu: "Didn't you say before that I was the sage?"

"Oh dear, he is a great sage, and you are a minor sage."

Bai Qianqu:

However, he had also witnessed Eden's terrifying influence. He had met Eden a few times before and had become accustomed to the other party's approachable attitude, subconsciously regarding him as a teacher or elder.

“Eden’s status is very high, and ordinary people can’t see him.” Bronya also joked with a smile, “But you’re not ordinary now either. It wouldn’t be good if you were recognized on the street. I suggest you keep a low profile when you go out in the future. If you get surrounded, you won’t be able to leave.”

"Although Anti-Entropy is doing its best to conceal your identity, it's just stalling for time. One day you'll be exposed. Have you thought about how you'll deal with it then?"

Bai Qianqu did not answer, but an idea had already taken shape in his mind.

Rather than passively revealing your identity without knowing when it will happen, it's better to take the initiative and control when it will be revealed!

At least this way we can keep the situation under our control.

That evening, Bai Qianqu returned to his rented room and immediately began to think about what song would be best to write.

Bai Qianqu was already very familiar with Qian Jie; his voice was deep and had a rich magnetic quality. This kind of voice gave people an impression of being steady, firm, and powerful.

This unique voice can sing many songs, but then he would have to order them specially, which would cost money and be a bit of a pain.

He still has a few songs in hand, and "Single Love Song" is of very good quality. I wonder if Qianjie can master it, since this song tests the strength of the mid-range and also has some rock elements.

Just thinking about Qianjie singing "Single Love Song" made Bai Qianqu shudder.

But it doesn't matter. Even if Qianjie can't sing it, I believe there are plenty of singers like Zhuhuo who can. Using this song to get by won't be a problem.

He was still hesitant, unsure how to handle the song, but now it seems he can finally use it.

As for the singer, he trusted Eden's judgment and knew the song wouldn't be wasted.

It's worth noting that "Single Love Song" won the Best Single of the Year award, so its quality is definitely not an issue.

After deciding on the song, Bai Qianqu began preparing gifts for Ai Li and the others.

He didn't plan to prepare a typical gift; as a musician, the best gift would naturally be music.

In addition, since it's Chinese New Year, Bai Qianqu plans to compose a more festive piece of music.

After thinking for a moment, a suitable option came to mind.

"System, create a custom piece of music called 'Spring Festival Overture'."

[Customization in progress, customization successful!]

[Friendly reminder: This piece can be played using four-finger legato after a slight modification!]
