Translator: 549690339 |
On the sa day, Thunderbolt Entertainnt’s monthly eting was convened ahead of schedule.
After the departnt mbers arrived at the eting room, they all instinctively looked at Fan Longhe, who was sitting in a corner, gripping his cell phone tightly.
So wanted to go forward and console him, but they were pulled back by their companions. After a mont’s hesitation, they chose to give up.
The sound of high heels clicking against the floor echoed from outside the room.
The supervisor, Luo Qi, had arrived.
Upon entering, she too glanced at Fan Longhe in the corner. A hint of amusent sparked in her eyes as she announced loudly, “With regard to the the song for the TV series, I think it’s ti to confirm it with the relevant departnts.”
“Supervisor Luo.”
Fan Longhe suddenly raised his head.
Luo Qi arched an eyebrow, “Deputy Supervisor Fan, please speak.”
Fan Longhe’s voice was a bit hoarse, “Why has the eting been moved up? It’s not yet the date we agreed upon.”
“Did Supervisor Fan forget sothing?”
Perched on her high chair, Luo Qi lightly crossed her legs, “If we wait any longer, even if your Xian Yu sends over the song, will we have any ti left to record it?”
Fan Longhe gritted his teeth.
Indeed, as Luo Qi had said.
If they waited any longer, even if Xian Yu finished the song, the company wouldn’t have ti to record it.
They couldn’t possibly change the fixed broadcast date just for an uncertain song.
“Moreover, even if he sends the song now, don’t the lyrics need to be changed?” Luo Qi added confidently.
Fan Longhe glared at Luo Qi.
It was clear that Luo Qi had insiders working for her, otherwise, she wouldn’t know so much, even about Xian Yu’s reluctance to have others write lyrics. Had he really lost?
During the rest of the eting, Fan Longhe was oblivious to the discussions.
Sitting in the corner, he felt like an irrelevant bystander.
It wasn’t until the eting ended and soone tapped his shoulder, that he managed to co back to his senses.
“The eting is over, Supervisor Fan.”
A subordinate reminded, who Fan had a good relationship with.
Fan Longhe smiled bitterly and nodded, “You shouldn’t stick with , if Luo sees you might suffer in the future.”
“I don’t care.”
The subordinate shrugged, “I have no interest in climbing up the ladder, I’m content being an office worker.”
Fan Longhe was moved.
Who doesn’t want a promotion?
It’s just a matter of loyalty.
Usually, many subordinates surrounded him, but now only one person stood firmly by his side.
Suddenly.
Fan Longhe’s phone rang.
He glanced at it and suddenly stood up, a flicker of color in his eyes which quickly faded, “They must have already been inford by now…”
“Yes.”
The subordinate curiously asked, “Did the song co? It’s a pity it’s too late now, we should have dragged it out a bit more.”
“Indeed.”
Fan Longhe smiled, “But even if we dragged on, it might not have made a difference. But it was still a $3 million dollar order I placed. Even though it was rushed within a month, let’s listen to it together?”
The subordinate nodded.
The two each took an earphone, and then Fan Longhe pressed the play button.
The soft and sorrowful piano prelude played, oddly matching Fan Longhe’s current mood, making him feel even more bitter.
Then.
Processed electronic music began to play, slowly sung in Qi language style, “Drenched streets at dusk from the fine rain, looking up aimlessly with wet eyes, gazing at the lonely street lamps, those sentintal mories…”
Fan Longhe slowly raised his head.
His subordinate also lifted his head, their eyes t for a brief second.
In their mono earphones, the song continued, “Missing you once again surges in my heart, past laughter still lingers on my face, wish you could know at this mont, it’s sincerely saying…”
Their gazes never had a chance to break.
Then they saw simultaneously, the faint light in each other’s eyes, followed by the sudden contraction of their pupils:
“Like You
Those captivating eyes
Laughter even more enchanting
Wish I could caress you again
That lovely face
Hold hands and talk about dreams
Like yesterday
You and …”
Fan Longhe abruptly stood up, the mono earphone cord fell to the floor. At the sa mont he opened his mouth, the subordinate also stood up:
“I get it now!”
Removing the earphone, the subordinate rushed out of the eting room, while Fan Longhe dashed toward a high-level office at the end of the corridor, urgently knocking on the door.
“Co in.”
A stem voice ca from inside.
Fan Longhe pushed the door open, quickly placing his cell phone on the table, “Manager, this is the real the song The Distance Between You and needs!”
The man raised his head, “Luo Qi just confird the the song with five minutes ago.”
“Not that one!”
Fan Longhe stuttered with nervousness, “This one… this one is different… this is another song I bought… Manager, could you please take a listen…”
“You’re overstepping.”
The manager stared at Fan Longhe, his voice sowhat harsh. But seeing Fan Longhe’s insistence, he took off his earphone and hit the play button on the phone, though his face clearly showed impatience.
As he played the song.
The office was filled with the sound of “Like You”. It was exactly the second part of the song, which Fan Longhe had not heard before:
“I was once so impetuous, full of idealism, often blaming love for taking away my freedom, I hope you will know at this mont, it’s sincerely saying – –
Like You, those captivating eyes, your laughter even more enchanting
Wish I could, caress you again, that lovely face, holding hands and talking about dreams
Like yesterday, you and !”
Fan Longhe clenched his fists tightly.
From love to weariness, from hate to regret.
Although the manager hadn’t responded yet, he was certain that there was no song more suitable as the the for The Distance between You and .
He took a deep breath.
The manager’s brow relaxed after a tense mont, his body sinking deeper into the leather chair.
At this point in the song, it was transitioning and building up to an even greater climax. “I used to wander alone every night, so cold, I often struggled for myself, never realizing her pain…”
“Manager.”
Unable to hold it in any longer, Fan Longhe took a slight step forward.
The manager didn’t stop the song.
His fingers followed the rhythm of the song, drumming rapidly against the table.
His legs also began rocking rhythmically, lost in enjoynt.
It wasn’t until the end of the song that he seed to co back to himself.
The room fell silent for a mont.
A few seconds later, the manager looked at Fan Longhe with a frown, shook his head, and joked, “Luo Qi is after all your superior. You neither brought this song up early nor later, but chose to do so right after she confird with , really not giving her any face.”
Fan Longhe was nervous, “I…”
The manager waved his hand, picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number, “Call the TV station and tell them that the the song for The Distance Between You and needs to be changed to another one… Why? Of course because there’s a better song! Yes, a thousand tis better!”
After ending the call.
The manager looked at Fan Longhe, “I don’t care about your feud with Luo Qi, but this song must be recorded within three days!”
“Understood!”
At this mont, Fan Longhe’s eyes finally burst with dazzling light!
