At 3:30 in the afternoon, in a luxurious hotel in Shashi, Hunan Province.
A handsome young man in his mid-twenties was sitting on a single sofa with his legs crossed, drinking a drink, and listening to what a thirty-year-old woman in front of him was saying.
"Xiao Ling, these are the songs we asked acquaintances to get from the top three companies in the country. All three are rated B+ or even A-."
"I've played all the songs to you before, how do you feel? Which one is suitable for you to use to release your first single?"
The woman turned over three pieces of A4 paper with music scores and lyrics printed on them, and placed them in front of the man she called Xiao Ling.
"Sister Zhao, to be honest, I am not satisfied with any of these three songs. They are either too vulgar, too crude, or too childish. I think it is not suitable for a singer with such an elegant temperament like me to sing."
"What? Not one song is suitable?"
Sister Zhao's originally calm face suddenly had ripples, and Xiao Ling's words made her open her mouth in surprise.
As the champion singer selected by this year's talent show "Brilliant Boys", Ling Buwei has been in the limelight some time ago.
This is a nationwide singer selection competition for amateur males aged 15-30.
Ling Buwei became a sensation from the preliminary round and participated in the provincial competition as the Shashi champion.
Then he participated in the national finals with the undisputed first place.
Countless red-eyed patients originally thought that he would be squeezed off the single-plank bridge soon after reaching the national finals where there were so many talents.
But this person happened to be the one who went all out. He also won consecutive victories on the national finals stage and won this year's championship without any suspense!
This was a big deal. As an amateur singer who had not yet signed with any company, he suddenly became popular in the eyes of almost all entertainment companies.
Until now, he has not decided which company to choose to join, but it just happened that a distant cousin of his worked for an unknown entertainment company, and after hearing the news, she left her job to be responsible for his financial affairs.
"Xiao Ling, you are too picky. The three companies Renxinghai, Feiyang and Guangguang are full of sincerity. These B+ songs are usually reserved for at least second-tier singers, and A- songs are even for first-tier singers. Why would you say that all three of the singer’s album tracks are not satisfactory?”
Sister Zhao shook her head, very puzzled.
These three songs, if it were in the small and medium-sized entertainment company she worked for before, there would be countless singers competing for their heads.
She is a professional herself and has been in this industry for almost 20 years. Naturally, she can tell the quality of these three songs with one ear.
But his distant cousin could be so arrogant that none of the three songs could enter his eyes?
"Of course these three songs are good, but, how should I put them?"
Ling Bu sat up slightly, with a smile on his face that most girls would fall for when they saw him, and he answered unhurriedly.
"I, Ling Buwei, stepped forward step by step from more than 30,000 contestants across the country, and finally won the national championship. My first single is one of the few that can only be called 'good' Can you just pass the time by singing?”
He stretched out his hand and pointed at the three pieces of music on the table with his long, white fingers.
"What I want to pursue is a masterpiece-level work that can represent my supreme glory. It is a song that people can't help but hum along when they hear a line of lyrics in their ears while walking on the street. song."
"Whenever people hear this song on TV, in restaurants, or at airports, their first reaction is: 'Wow! Isn't this the song that Ling Buwei sang?'"
"What I need...is this kind of song. Only this kind of song can be worthy of my Ling Buwei's natural singing voice."
Zhao Yuping was stunned.
She didn't expect that her cousin, who seemed quiet and quiet when she was young, would grow into such an ambitious person!
"This... this will be difficult. Your singing voice is indeed very good, but... why should they provide you with such a good song? The three major companies use such songs to praise their own people. , isn’t it great?”
She pointed out tactfully that Ling Buwei was still a free man and had not joined any entertainment company.
"Hey, Sister Zhao, don't think I'm just a toad trying to eat swan meat..."
Ling Buwei spread his hands helplessly, revealing a bitter smile that was rarely seen in ordinary times.
"My voice is indeed very outstanding, and I can play better than many people. But what is the actual situation now? I must break into a world as soon as possible. You must know that now the three major companies are pursuing me. That's because I won the championship in "Brilliant Boy"."
"But if I sing a song that is not so classic or outstanding right now when I am at my peak, my identity will be defined as an 'ordinary second-tier singer', and it will never be possible for me to turn around. "
"You have to know how big a gap there is between the second line and the first line."
"Many singers have been singing all their lives, but they are just wandering between the top of the second line and the bottom of the first line."
"It's like playing in a grading competition. If you get bronze when grading, you will never be able to climb up to silver."
"My goal is to become the king of our Xia Kingdom. I can't let myself be trapped in the label of 'second-tier singer' when I first started and never be able to climb up."
Ling Buwei's expression was very serious at this time, and Zhao Yuping couldn't help but nodded.
"But you don't have to become the king in one go. Who hasn't endured for so many years? Good songs don't just fall from the sky. Some singers are lucky enough to encounter a song that can make them famous in their lifetime. Fortunately!"
She could actually understand what her little cousin said.
But how should I put it, it’s still a bit naive.
After all, I have never been in society, suffered hardships, or experienced the hardships of the world.
She still wanted to give some advice.
But Ling Buwei stretched out his hand to stop what she was going to say next.
"No, Sister Zhao, every company is full of kings and queens. They can have one song not be popular, two songs not be popular, or even several songs not be popular, and at most they will fall to the front line."
"And what about me? I only have this one chance to take advantage of the limelight of "Brilliant Boy" to win my life. If I don't succeed this time, it will be extremely difficult for me to encounter such a good opportunity in the future. I...I can't lose. Get up!"
Zhao Yuping also understood what her cousin said, and she gradually agreed with his statement.
The opportunity is indeed rare. How many national championships can a person win in his lifetime?
Not to mention, if it is postponed until next year, a new championship will be announced again. Who are you, an old person?
"well……"
She let out a long sigh.
"Dingling bell~"
At this time, her phone suddenly rang.
But he found out that the call was from his old classmate Zhang Lingling.
"Zhang Lingling, what will happen if she comes to me at this time?"
She answered the phone and said "hello" into the phone in confusion.
"Ha, Xiao Yuping, are you free tonight? Let's go out to eat hot pot! I'm picking up the car today. I'm happy to treat everyone to dinner!"
