Life countdown begins, ice queen bursts into security room

Shanghai, Fanyin Studio.

Jiang Fan sat in the boss's chair, scrolling down with the mouse.

On the computer screen was a detailed data and evaluation report on the singers signed by Universal Entertainment, sent by Tang Yingxue.

Jiang Fan opened the "Starlight Girl" folder.

The photo shows five girls standing side by side, all wearing matching blue and white checkered pleated skirts and white shirts.

She has the typical girl group face and very long legs.

The team leader's name is Lin Yue, and her profile says she's the lead singer with a sweet voice.

Jiang Fan clicked on their latest single released last month.

After the progress bar had moved for ten seconds, Jiang Fan pressed the spacebar to pause the playback.

The rhythm is mediocre, the arrangement is outdated, and the chorus is so bad that you can't even remember the tune.

In today's music market, listeners don't have the patience to listen to a three-minute song. If the first ten seconds don't grab their attention, they'll skip to the next song.

When Qin Wanhao was in power, these five girls were probably just kept as decorative objects to attract resources and maintain appearances.

Tang Yingxue has now taken over Universal, which is undergoing a major internal reshuffle and is facing fierce competition from outside.

She desperately needs a project that can quickly generate revenue and create a huge buzz to stabilize morale.

Girl groups are the best way to monetize.

Young and beautiful, with just one catchy song, one can quickly gain a large amount of traffic and fans.

Jiang Fan brought up the system panel with a thought.

Current lifespan: 96300 points

Open the store and go to the music category.

Enter the following criteria in the search box: girl group, brainwashing, fast pace.

Pull down the list, and rows of song titles appear.

Jiang Fan's gaze lingered on a song.

Calories.

When this song was first released in the previous life, it received polarized reviews, but it was extremely popular.

It's playing everywhere – in streets and alleys, shopping malls and supermarkets – and the chorus melody is so catchy it's practically etched into people's minds.

It's suitable for promoting a girl group that lacks vocal talent.

These catchy pop songs don't require high-level singing skills; as long as the rhythm is catchy and accompanied by dance, they can quickly become popular.

[Consumes 200 life points]

Jiang Fan closed the page and then opened Zhang Yihan's profile.

Zhang Yihan just signed a new contract the day before yesterday, changing from the previous unfair terms to an S-level artist contract.

There is a recent audition audio file sent by Zhang Yihan in the folder.

Jiang Fan clicked to play.

A clean, penetrating voice; after experiencing life and death and humiliation, a person develops a kind of resilience.

Zhang Yihan's current state is far more valuable than her previous approach of relying on showing off her legs to attract attention.

She was forced by Qin Wanhao to take the sexy singing and dancing route in the past, which was a complete waste of her voice.

A talented singer was forcibly packaged as a porn star, a completely wrong approach.

She is now suited to singing songs with a story that resonate with the public.

The voice of someone who has crawled out of a desperate situation carries a sense of brokenness.

Jiang Fan searched through the online store.

The Light Chaser.

The melody of this song is soothing, and the emotions progress in distinct layers.

With Zhang Yihan's current vocal range, it can directly pull her image back from the margins and re-establish her reputation as a powerful female singer.

exchange.

Finally, there's Tang Yingxue.

Tang Yingxue has just taken control of Universal Entertainment, and now she needs a song to solidify her position.

She rose to superstardom with her hit song "Light Years," a song that brought her lifelong benefits.

Now that she sits in the chairman's seat, she needs to declare to the outside world that she not only has ruthless methods, but also the power to crush the entire Chinese music scene.

The quality of this song must be top-notch; Tang Yingxue is Universal's pillar of strength.

Jiang Fan entered his criteria into the search bar.

A few minutes later, he selected "Light Years Away".

The name also contains the words "light-year".

For Tang Yingxue, this is both a legacy and a transcendence.

She needs to use this song to tell everyone that the past Tang Yingxue is over, and now she stands in a higher position.

Three songs, 600 life points.

For the rest of the time, Jiang Fan pulled over the keyboard and opened the music production software.

The three songs are very different in style, but with the help of master-level arrangement skills, the pace of the music is extremely fast.

Jiang Fan put on his monitoring headphones and began writing lyrics and making demo compositions.

The only sounds in the studio were the clicking of mice and keyboards.

Kyoto, Chairman's Office at Universal Entertainment Headquarters.

Tang Yingxue stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the congested traffic below.

The tablet computer on the desk is playing an entertainment news program.

"It is understood that Mr. Li, the former director of the songwriting department of Universal Entertainment, officially joined Star Shine Entertainment yesterday."

"In an interview, Mr. Li stated that Universal Entertainment was experiencing internal turmoil, and its core music library had been emptied. Star Shine Entertainment announced an investment of 50 million to create a brand new music label, aiming directly at Universal Entertainment's market share."

Tang Yingxue walked back to her desk and pressed the mute button.

After being fired, Lao Li immediately joined his arch-rival, Xinghui Entertainment.

This old guy spent eight years at Universal, and he not only took away a batch of unreleased tracks, but also teamed up with Star Overseas to spread rumors and criticize Universal Entertainment online.

This morning, Universal Entertainment's stock price dropped three points at the opening of the market, wiping out nearly a billion dollars in market value.

At the morning meeting, everyone on the board of directors had stern faces.

Although no one openly opposes her, people have begun to question her abilities in private.

Several veteran shareholders even made sarcastic remarks at the meeting, saying that women in charge are not good at managing the household.

Tang Yingxue tapped her fingers on the table, making a rhythmic tapping sound.

Old Li's move to cut off her lifeline did indeed strike at her weak point.

A music library is the lifeblood of an entertainment company; without new song releases, singers can only rely on their existing hits.

She has only been in charge of the company for a short time. Removing Qin Wanhao's remaining associates is only the first step. To truly silence these people, she must produce solid achievements and works.

There are two days left until the week Jiang Fan mentioned.

Tang Yingxue stopped tapping her fingers.

She couldn't wait.

With Star Shine Entertainment pressing her hard and the stock price falling, she had to get those songs as soon as possible to stabilize the company.

Press the intercom on the table.

"Chairman Tang," came the assistant's voice.

"Book your flight to Shanghai this afternoon."

"Yes, Mr. Tang. Do you need me to arrange a hotel?"

"Need not."

The assistant paused for a second on the other end.

"Yes, Mr. Tang, I'll take care of it right away."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Yingxue leaned back in her chair.

She has been working intensely at the company for the past few days, working non-stop for five days straight, and her body is starting to feel the strain.

Going to find Jiang Fan would also be a good opportunity to resolve my own problems.

She feels uneasy if she doesn't see Jiang Fan for a day.

The feeling of that man remaining inside her was like an addiction.

However, Jiang Fan is more responsive to gentle persuasion than force; he had to go ahead and urge the song to be completed beforehand, as going empty-handed wouldn't work.

On the way to the airport, Tang Yingxue asked her assistant to stop briefly at Taikoo Li.

Wearing sunglasses and a mask, Tang Yingxue walked into a high-end lingerie store.

There weren't many people in the store, so she went straight to the stockings section and ran her fingers over the rows of boxes.

She picked out two pairs of the most expensive ultra-thin black stockings, and as she turned to pay, her gaze swept over the shelf next to her.

It was a set of pure black, openwork lingerie nightgowns, with a few thin ribbons connecting a palm-sized piece of fabric that was almost transparent.

Tang Yingxue took it casually.

The cashier glanced up at her subconsciously while scanning the code, but didn't recognize her as Tang Tianhou.

Tang Yingxue sat back in the back of the van, stuffed the shopping bag into the bottom of her handbag, and blushed.
