My Songwriting Was Rejected, But I Became A Superstar

The performance was perfect, but the performance was not good.

Chapter 53: Love Offering

Zhou Yu’s performance was perfect this time, at least in Wen Shiyi’s opinion. Zeng Huayu and Li Xue’s denial did not affect Zhou Yu’s result, and he still advanced this time.

However…

If there is a score after this, Zhou Yu will be at a disadvantage. It can be seen that Zeng Huayu and Li Xue are on the same front, and the interest chain behind them is the same, and they will target Zhou Yu more.

Zhou Yu sat back, and Zhao Lei said to Zhou Yu with some excitement: “Brother Yu, your song is so beautiful, amazing!”

Zhou Yu smiled, and Li Xingyu and Lin Hao, who were sitting in front, sneered unconsciously. These two guys, don’t they really think that they can win the championship and debut if they perform well? You will have a hard time later.

As the assessment progressed, it was Lin Hao and Li Xingyu’s turn. As the most popular contestants among the students, they have made great progress after such a long period of training.

Lin Hao is good at rap, and basically every song he brings is a rap type. Li Xingyu’s songs are the kind of songs that combine Chinese and English, the type that idols like the most. They sound very high-end, but in fact, except for fans, no one else wants to listen to them at all.

The two have made some progress. At least Zhou Yu can see the improvement from their singing skills and the songs they wrote, but that’s it. Li Xingyu and his friends look down on him, and Zhou Yu also looks down on them.

The recording of the fourth episode ended like this. In the end, those who passed the assessment entered the next official performance, and those who did not advance were directly eliminated.

Now, the third episode of the program has been broadcast, and the recording of the fourth episode has been completed. The post-production will also be rushed out overtime and broadcast this week. The fifth episode will be broadcast live because the online voting channel will be opened.

This is the first variety show in China to be broadcast live before the finals.

In order to capture real-time data, the program team has set a precedent.

While everyone was preparing for the fifth episode, the theme song of Yang Qian’s new drama “Palace Heart Lock City” was finally recorded and released.

The news of the drama’s advance schedule spread on the Internet a long time ago. Penguin Video and the crew have already been promoting and warming up. Now there is still a week before the show is broadcast, and the theme song is finally released.

As a super first-line actress and a popular superstar in China, Yang Qian is one of the top female artists in terms of popularity. Her drama has always been highly anticipated, not only because of Yang Qian, but also because the lineup of this drama is so strong.

A time-travel type of ancient costume palace fighting type drama with a big heroine, Yang Qian is the heroine, and the other main characters are also a group of big names. Director Yu Dao, a big shot in domestic costume dramas, has made many hit TV series. Screenwriter Mr. Ding is Yu Dao’s old partner. With the two of them together, the quality of the TV series is definitely guaranteed.

Not to mention that there are so many popular artists, the ratings are basically guaranteed.

Now, as soon as the theme song sung by Yang Qian was released, it was on the hot search, and a moment later it ranked third on the new song list. The first one is still Wen Shiyi’s “Fleeting Years”, and the second one is Zhang Yue’s “Goodbye”.

“Oh my god! It’s actually Qian Qian’s theme song. I haven’t heard Qian Qian sing for a long time.”

“Wow, this drama seduces me every day, why don’t you release it soon!”

“It’s the goddess’ new song, and it’s the theme song of the new drama. I must go and support it!”

“Wow! This summer vacation, I can not only watch my wife’s new drama, but also hear my wife’s new song!”

…

Yang Qian’s popularity is unquestionable. The news of the new song was just posted on Weibo. It has been on Weibo’s hot search for only ten minutes. Wen Shiyi has a good relationship with Yang Qian. Yang Qian helped her promote her new song before, so this time she also helped to forward and promote it.

Lin Jiajia just came back from shopping with her friends. Before she had time to change her clothes, she just opened her phone and saw the news pushed on Weibo.

“Yang Qian’s new song?”

For this super-first-line actress who debuted as a child star, Lin Jiajia can also say that she grew up watching her dramas. I know Yang Qian used to be a singer, but she hasn’t released any new songs for a long time. I was really surprised to see this news.

She changed into a pair of sandals, put on her black silk feet, and turned on the air conditioner.

The room cooled down, and then I opened Weibo to check it out.

“It turned out to be the theme song of the new drama.”

During this period, Yang Qian’s new drama has been promoted very vigorously, and it can be seen that Penguin Video is very determined to grab summer traffic from iQiyi Video. After all, iQiyi Video has launched a show called “Son of Idol”, which has attracted a large number of viewers. If they don’t increase their efforts during the summer vacation, how can they grab it from others?

Bored, Lin Jiajia opened Penguin Music, and just clicked on the new song list, she saw Yang Qian’s new song ranked third.

“Love Offering…”

After clicking play, she was about to reach out to the refrigerator to get a Coke, but when she saw the name on the lyricist column, she was stunned and slid back in an instant.

“Zhou Yu?!”

Seeing this name, Lin Jiajia thought she had seen it wrong, and confirmed it several times before she was sure that she was not dazzled.

She instantly became a little excited. Is this the teacher Zhou Yu who wrote songs for Wen Shiyi?

She didn’t have time to listen to the song now, so she paused and went to Weibo to find the message Yang Qian had just posted. In the promotional text, the author of the song was mentioned at the end, saying thank you to Mr. Zhou Yu for writing the song and thank you to Shiyi for the matchmaking.

Lin Jiajia looked at Wen Shiyi’s Weibo again, which was just a repost of Yang Qian’s, and there was no news. But she went to the crew’s Weibo and saw that there was also a promotional Weibo for the theme song, which also mentioned Mr. Zhou Yu and thanked him for solving a big problem for the crew.

“It seems to be him.”

Lin Jiajia already knew that the author of Yang Qian’s song this time was Zhou Yu, the Zhou Yu who wrote the song for Wen Shiyi, and looking at Yang Qian’s Weibo, it was Wen Shiyi who helped her to successfully connect with Mr. Zhou Yu.

“Then I have to come and listen to how this song is.”

Knowing that this song was written by Zhou Yu, Lin Jiajia was immediately interested. She was very curious about Zhou Yu before. Now he not only writes songs for Wen Shiyi, but also writes a theme song for Yang Qian’s new drama, which is becoming more and more popular.

Returning to the music interface and clicking play, Lin Jiajia subconsciously turned up the volume as a melodious melody sounded.

As the prelude ended, Yang Qian’s voice, which was a little sweet but sad, sounded.

“Hold you in my hand and burn incense devoutly

Cut a piece of candlelight to light up the classics

Don’t ask for a heart-wrenching love, just ask for a love

Love hurt in the end and cried so desperately…”

After reading the script, Zhou Yu decided to write this theme song for Yang Qian’s new drama, “Love Offering” sung by Yang Mi. Not only does it fit their script, but it also fits Yang Qian’s voice.

This song is a song written by Yu Zheng and composed by Tan Xuan. It is also the theme song of the TV series “Palace Lock Heart Jade”. It is included in the personal album “Close to me” released on January 4, 2021.

In the era when time-travel palace fighting dramas were very popular, Yang Mi’s song “Love Offering” was also popular all over the country. Even the popularity of the TV series is partly due to this song.

“I will use my whole life to offer you

I only hope that you will stop looking at me

Please give me the power to love and be loved infinitely

Let me be at ease and quietly contemplate under the Bodhi tree…”

Lin Jiajia’s eyes lit up as she listened to Yang Qian’s new song.
