HuaYu: Starting with Photography to Navigate the Entertainment Industry

After settling Qin Feifei in, Xu Lang said to Zhang Liangying:

"Okay, let's begin!"

"Um!"

Zhang Liangying nodded to Xu Lang, began to gather her emotions, and then, an ethereal voice pierced through the recording studio, striking straight into everyone's hearts:

"The empty streets make me want to find someone to confide in."

The moment the first line of lyrics was uttered, the entire recording studio fell silent.

Even Chen Tao, who was tearing open snack packaging for Shen Qingyue, stopped what he was doing.

Everyone quieted down and looked silently at Zhang Liangying, who was singing.

Qin Feifei, in particular, hadn't taken Xu Lang's instructions to listen carefully and reflect deeply seriously.

But as soon as Zhang Liangying uttered those first words, Qin Feifei's heart sank.

She knew that this song was different from her previous one, "Sour and Sweet Is Me".

This song, just as Xu Lang said, is truly worth listening to carefully.

This was also the first time Xu Lang had heard Zhang Liangying officially sing this song, and he was immediately amazed.

"Zhang Liangying truly lives up to her reputation; her voice and the feeling she evokes are perfectly suited for this song!"

Although it was an a cappella performance, Zhang Liangying's voice was absolutely powerful enough to carry the song; that's real talent.

The recording studio was unusually quiet, everyone was listening intently, and even the air conditioning suddenly became quieter.

Then Zhang Liangying continued singing:

"Making this decision means loneliness is my neighbor."

Our love, like the scenery you pass by, is always ongoing.

But my footsteps never stop for me.

My love for you has always been quiet, in exchange for the occasional care you give me.

It's supposed to be a movie for three people, but I never get a name.

Upon hearing the line "My love for you has always been quiet," Qin Feifei's heart suddenly clenched. She didn't know the background of the song or the story behind it.

But just listening to the song makes me feel really heartbroken.

It makes you want to cry!

Wang Zhe, a music student, felt a surge of emotion as he listened to Zhang Liangying's singing.

"As expected of my idol, he sang this song so well!"

Even Shen Qingyue's eyes reddened, her hands clenched tightly, and her eyes fixed on Zhang Liangying.

Of the group, Chen Tao was the one who felt it most deeply:

The line, "But I can never have a name," struck him deeply.

A simp's heart!

Just like the song says, a simp doesn't even deserve a name.

At that moment, Chen Tao looked at Shen Qingyue beside him, and his eyes also turned red.

Xu Lang is the person most familiar with this song and knows its background.

This song, in its previous life, was sung by A-Sun as "Always Quiet".

This song became popular and loved not only because it sounds good and touches people's hearts, but also because it is the soundtrack of "Chinese Paladin 1".

It is also the exclusive background music for Lin Yueru in the TV series.

(The soundtrack of the first Legend of Sword and Fairy game is truly a classic!)

Xu Lang is extremely familiar with the Legend of Sword and Fairy 1.

He's been playing this game since he was in school.

Can you believe it? A grown man was playing a game and he was crying his eyes out!

The part where Lin Yueru dies, in particular, is incredibly heartbreaking.

Later, because he liked the game, he continued to follow the TV series after it aired in 2005.

They kept cursing while chasing him.

The TV series made too many changes to some aspects, especially the character of Lin Yueru, which Xu Lang found particularly unacceptable.

Although Lin Yueru in the TV series was not likable, Xu Lang always liked the song that was tailor-made for Lin Yueru.

In his previous life, after being dumped by Shen Qingyue, he kept listening to this song.

I'll cry every time I hear it!

You never truly had the other person, so you don't even have the right to say "break up."

You see him loving someone else, and you even have to find a plausible reason to be jealous;

You gave him everything, but in the end, you were just a "very good friend" in his life.

Today, Xu Lang brought out this song and even brought Zhang Liangying and Qin Feifei along, hoping to give the two of them an opportunity and at the same time fulfill a childhood dream of his own.

As for opportunities, Xu Lang's goal is simple and clear:

Although the casting for "Chinese Paladin 1" is almost complete (Hu Ge plays Li Xiaoyao, Liu Yifei plays Zhao Ling'er, and An Yixuan plays Lin Yueru), filming has not yet officially started.

Xu Lang's primary goal was to make Zhang Liangying's song "Always Quiet" the theme song for the TV series, which was also Lin Yueru's theme song.

This goal is not difficult to achieve because of the excellence of the song "Always Quiet".

After all, TV dramas also need good background music; they complement each other.

The second goal is more difficult:

Xu Lang wanted Qin Feifei to replace An Yixuan and take the role of Lin Yueru.

Besides these two goals, Xu Lang's own dream is to change the drastic alterations in the TV series and remove the label of "mistress" from Lin Yueru.

This goal is even more difficult.

But Xu Lang just wanted to give it a try.

Even a salted fish should have ideals.

What if it happens!

Moreover, Xu Lang is not a salted fish.

At this moment, Zhang Liangying finished singing the entire song, her eyes red, and looked at Xu Lang.

The others were all lost in their own sorrow, unable to come back to their senses.

For a moment, no one spoke.

Just as Xu Lang was about to speak, he suddenly heard footsteps outside.

Footsteps, along with applause and cheers, rang out.

"good!"

"You sang so well!"

Xu Lang turned his head and saw four people walk in.

Xu Lang knew all four of them.

The two people in front of him are Li Xiaolin, the boss of Tianzhong Culture, and Wang Peng, the boss of Tianyu Culture.

Xu Lang wasn't too surprised by the arrival of these two people; after all, this was their territory.

Moreover, Xu Lang had also spoken to Li Xiaolin before borrowing the recording engineer.

But the two people behind them surprised Xu Lang somewhat:

It turned out to be Mr. Sun, who had just left, and his assistant.

Xu Lang looked at President Sun, and a thought suddenly struck him.

"Could it be such a coincidence?"

As he was lost in thought, he saw four people walking quickly towards him.

Li Xiaolin and Wang Peng both surrounded Zhang Liangying, their eyes filled with eagerness.

"Xiaoying, you sang this song so well."

"Yes, this song seems to be new. Did you write it?"

Zhang Liangying felt a surge of excitement upon receiving their praise and recognition.

These two are real big shots to Tai, the kind who control resources.

Especially after the Super Girl competition became a hit, the status and influence of these two big names in the music industry rose sharply.

Previously, Feng Ke went to great lengths to win their favor and thus gain opportunities!

Now, with only one day to go, this opportunity is right in front of Zhang Liangying. How could she not be excited?

And all of this was brought about by that man named Xu Lang.

He really understands me, and he can really help me!

This statement has now become a reality.

Excitement and elation flushed Zhang Liangying's face. She glanced at the two powerful figures in front of her, then pointed at Xu Lang.

"This song... was written by Xu Lang, and he sang it for me."

This sentence also carried her little scheme, deliberately indicating that it was Xu Lang who sang it for me, which could be considered as asserting her ownership.

"Oh?"

Li Xiaolin and Wang Peng exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise.

The two turned to Xu Lang, and Li Xiaolin stared at him, asking:

"Xu Lang, is this the 'resource' you mentioned yesterday?"

"yes!"

Xu Lang readily nodded in agreement, then chuckled and asked Wang Peng and Li Xiaolin,

"Do the two CEOs think this song deserves to be called a 'resource'?"
