My Songwriting Was Rejected, But I Became A Superstar

The money is in the bank.

Chapter 47 As long as the money is in place

Yang Qian was waiting for Wen Shiyi’s reply. When Wen Shiyi made a comeback, the teacher Zhou Yu who wrote the song for her attracted a lot of attention. Later, when she saw the student Zhou Yu on the show, she thought it was the same person. However, from the observation during this period of time, it should be just two people.

If it was the same person, how could Zhou Yu come to participate in the talent show? And the music styles of the two people are different.

This time, she couldn’t decide on the theme song of the TV series she was going to launch. She asked teachers in the circle to write several songs but was not satisfied. Now she heard Wen Shiyi’s new song “Fleeting Years”, and the lyricist and composer was still the mysterious teacher Zhou Yu. She listened to this song and it was really nice. The lyrics and music were very good, with a strong flavor of youth pain literature.

Whether it was the previous song “Period” that made Wen Shiyi successfully come back, or this song “Fleeting Years”, the talent of this mysterious teacher Zhou Yu is obvious to all. Especially this new song written for Wen Shiyi this time, it actually beat the new song written by Teacher Wei Shuming for Zhang Yue, which is enough to show that Zhou Yu is not weak.

“I hope this Zhou Yu can write a suitable theme song.”

Wen Shiyi just returned home from the event, took a shower and lay on the bed. When she opened her mobile phone, in addition to some work news, she saw the WeChat sent by Yang Qian.

“Huh? Looking for Zhou Yu?”

Wen Shiyi was also a little confused when she saw this message from Yang Qian. What did she do with Zhou Yu? Did she know Zhou Yu’s identity?

“No, I shouldn’t know.”

Zhou Yu’s identity has never been exposed, and even the two kept a certain distance in the show, so their identities should not have been exposed.

“Is there something you want to talk to Zhou Yu about?”

Wen Shiyi hesitated for a moment and sent a message: “Sister Qian, do you have anything to say?”

Yang Qian was still talking to the director about the theme song, and suddenly saw Wen Shiyi’s reply, and quickly typed a reply.

“Yes, my new drama is about to be launched, but the theme song has not been finalized. I have asked several teachers to write it, but they all feel inappropriate. I saw the new song that Teacher Zhou Yu wrote for you, and I think he is very talented, so I want to try it with him.”

“Shiyi, can you help introduce him?”

Wen Shiyi’s eyes flickered. Ask Zhou Yu to write a song?

The news that Yang Qian’s new song is going to be launched recently has been officially announced, and it has already started to warm up on the Internet. She seemed to have heard Yang Qian say before that the drama was originally scheduled to be launched in August, but now Penguin Video has advanced many subsequent large-scale productions and TV dramas with high-traffic stars in order to compete with iQiyi Video for summer traffic.

However, she couldn’t decide whether to ask Zhou Yu to write a song, and Zhou Yu didn’t want to reveal his identity. If she pushed Zhou Yu to Yang Qian, wouldn’t his identity be exposed?

“Is that so…”

“Sister Qian, let me ask for you, but I don’t know whether Teacher Zhou Yu will agree or not. He’s been busy recently.”

Now it’s almost the fourth round of assessment, and the students are all very busy. She doesn’t want to delay Zhou Yu’s competition because of other things.

“Okay, then I’ll leave it to you, Shiyi. Love you, baby!”

Yang Qian sent a kissing expression to Wen Shiyi. The two have a good relationship. This time, Yang Qian also helped to forward and promote Wen Shiyi’s new song.

After finishing the chat with Yang Qian, Wen Shiyi was a little dazed. Looking at Zhou Yu’s WeChat avatar, her eyes flickered.

Now Zhou Yu’s talent has attracted the attention of others, just like Yang Qian came to her door just now. Although she doesn’t know Zhou Yu’s identity yet, she will definitely not be able to hide it in the future. This time, the new song Zhou Yu wrote for himself beat Zhang Yue, the queen, and Wei Shuming, the top lyricist in China. Zhou Yu’s name has spread throughout the circle. I don’t know how many people are investigating Zhou Yu’s identity.

If Zhou Yu’s identity is exposed in the future, it will be more difficult for me to sign Zhou Yu.

“The key is that this guy rejected my invitation.”

When Wen Shiyi thought of this, she had a headache. This guy didn’t seem to want to sign with the company.

“I’ll talk to him after class tomorrow.”

…

The next day, before the fourth assessment

After the last class, Zhou Yu was quietly called away by Wen Shiyi again, still outside by the artificial lake.

“What’s wrong?”

Wen Shiyi had called him out before because she had something to do, and this time she called him out alone. Zhou Yu thought that something must have happened again.

Wen Shiyi looked at Zhou Yu, wearing simple short-sleeved jeans, revealing a pair of slender arms. She turned her head and looked at Zhou Yu, and said something from the bottom of her heart.

“The new song has done very well, thank you.”

Hearing this, Zhou Yu was stunned, thinking that Wen Shiyi had encountered something again, but it turned out that she was just thanking him.

To be honest, this time “Fleeting Years” became popular, and it brought him a lot of benefits. Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of yuan Wen Shiyi spent on buying songs, the dividends brought to him by the songs are not small. Now he is recording the program, completely closed, and he hasn’t got his mobile phone before, but Zhou Yu is sure that by next month, there will be a lot of money in his card.

How to say it, it was a win without any effort, and I made the money comfortably. This further strengthened my decision to start my own company in the future and make money as a big boss behind the scenes.

“It’s okay, this is also your own credit, and you sing very well.”

Zhou Yu’s words were not false. Although the song “Fleeting Years” is good, Wen Shiyi’s singing skills are also very good, and she perfectly expresses the emotions of the song. It can be said that Wen Shiyi also contributed to the success of this song.

“Did you come to me today for this matter?”

Wen Shiyi looked at Zhou Yu, hesitated for a while, and then spoke: “No, I just want to ask you, I really want to sign you to my company, don’t worry, if you don’t want to be an artist, you can be a partner after the recording of the program is over.”

When Zhou Yu heard this, he didn’t expect that she was still thinking about this matter. Being a partner means that he has joined her company as one of the bosses.

It sounds tempting, but he still thinks it’s not the time to consider these things now, and he still wants to start his own company. But he didn’t say it absolutely, but left himself a way out.

“Thank you, but I still plan to see after the recording of the program is over.”

Zhou Yu knew what Wen Shiyi was worried about, so he added: “But you can rest assured that before that, I will not sign a contract with any company. You can ask me to write songs anytime, as long as…”

Wen Shiyi was happy to hear this: “As long as what?”

Zhou Yu said half-jokingly: “As long as the money is in place.”

Wen Shiyi was also stunned when she heard Zhou Yu’s words, but then she was amused by him.

“You shouldn’t be short of money now, right?”

Just this time, he paid hundreds of thousands for the song. The share of “Period” before, plus the share after “Fleeting Years”, Zhou Yu can get at least hundreds of thousands of shares a month.

“How can I not be short of money? I’m not a rich woman like you. You saw me selling songs in the bar with no money. To be honest, if it weren’t for your 20,000 yuan, I couldn’t even pay the rent.”

Wen Shiyi looked at Zhou Yu’s handsome face. This man who was three years younger than her was so talented, but he had always been unappreciated. But fortunately, she met him.

At that time, she was also in a quagmire. Now think about it, the two of them can be regarded as mutual redemption.

“Your song at that time also helped me.”

Wen Shiyi’s tone was very sincere: “Without your song, I guess it would be difficult for me to make a comeback.”

Zhou Yu lay on the railing, the sun set in the sky, and the afterglow of the sunset was reflected on the lake, sparkling.

He turned his head slightly to look at Wen Shiyi, the sunset fell on her, the whole person was bathed in golden light, looking very gentle.

The two looked at each other, and for a moment there seemed to be some kind of different atmosphere rising between them. Wen Shiyi quickly looked away and changed the subject.

“There is another thing. Teacher Yang Qian asked me to find you and wanted you to write a theme song for her new drama.”

Thanks to book friend Ye Lingyu for the monthly vote!
