Chapter 363: Must Not Lose
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Muyan, what are you doing? There’s no one called Xixi. You rembered wrongly!” Su Muyan’s manager, Ma Chao, caught up with him in a hurry and pulled him away while winking non-stop at Director Zhang.
The new singer from Cosmos Entertainnt called Qi Xiu sold his albums at an astronomical rate and received acclamations from other musicians on Weibo after listening to his music.
Muyan’s forr ntor, who was also a teacher and friend of the Music King Gao Lang, had just recomnded Qi Xiu’s songs and even posted an impactful comnt saying that the newcor was an erging star in the music scene.
Gao Lang highlighted the three main songs in Qi Xiu’s album and comnded the songwriter, saying that those three songs had far surpassed the highest level of the Chinese music industry and were on an international level.
When Su Muyan saw his life coach giving such complints, he imdiately asked soone to get him Qi Xiu’s album and listened to his songs.
Ma Chao was also a music major and Su Muyan’s manager, so he still had so musical taste.
The three main songs truly were of remarkable musical quality. Any of those was enough to dominate the charts, let alone three of such songs in the sa album..
While one of the main songs alone was enough to raise the whole album’s standard, it created an explosive effect with all three of them in the sa album.
Gao Lang’s evaluation of the songwriter was even higher than that of the singer Qi Xiu. This music producer was called Xixi.
The first main song was called “Green Silk”.
Ma Chao clearly rembered that day when he threw out the ugly and scrawny teenager who was saying that his na was Xixi. One of the song titles that boy showed them was called “Green Silk”.
He knew that he needed to take this to the grave with him and absolutely could not let Su Muyan find out. Otherwise, he would certainly get fired.
“What? Xixi? I have no idea who that is.” Director Zhang was still furious. They had prepared Su Muyan’s new album for two years, and they thought the quality and standard were the highest in the current music industry, but their montum was cut off midway.
Su Muyan sneered. “You didn’t know? The whole company knows that there was a music producer nad Xixi who was looking for
to sing his originals.”
“Muyan, the world is full of people with the sa na. Anyone can be called Xixi.” Director Zhang not only recalled who that was, he even rembered vividly when the holess-looking boy ca to the office and that Mr. Fu was here too. “Just think about the ti when Xixi ca over and compare it with the ti Qi Xiu released his album. Do you think it could be him?”
That holess boy that ca to the office was an unknown person who was asking for Su Muyan. It had only been about twenty days since. Even if Qi Xiu and Cosmos Entertainnt were good, it was impossible to make such a high-quality album in such a short ti.
“Mr. Zhang, there are no absolutes in everything.” Su Muyan knew in his heart that it was unlikely, but anything was possible in the world. Twenty days was not considered a long ti, but it was not short either. It was still possible to make an album within that ti fra.
“I asked around. Qi Xiu started preparing for his album after the New Year. Even if this Xixi guy later found Qi Xiu, they wouldn’t just switch the main song because it’s not a small matter.” Director Zhang looked at Su Muyan. “You’re still young and still have a lot of opportunities, so don’t be anxious. He’s just a newcor and won’t have much impact on you.”
Cosmos Entertainnt’s strategy was to deliberately release songs on the sa day with Su Muyan to ride on his wave. It was a really good strategy, Tianheng would not give it to them.
“Goodbye, Mr. Zhang.” Ma Chao pulled Su Muyan and consoled him. “Muyan, let’s go. You just need to focus on singing and creating your songs. Leave the rest to the company.”
Ma Chao was aware that Su Muyan had been dabbling in music since he was young. He was passionate about music and was praised excessively. Since his debut, he had been known as a musical genius, and that implanted arrogance in him.
Now, a new singer and songwriter erged out of the blue, and he was even affird by seniors in the music industry, so this was quite a blow to Su Muyan.
This newcor Qi Xiu was aggressive and Cosmos Entertainnt did not follow the usual publicity strategy, so no one saw it coming that these songs and this singer would be a hit just by promoting with short videos.
This new short video app was also launched by Cosmos Entertainnt just half a year ago. They were under the radar and no one knew that it had unknowingly beco so popular.
Su Muyan was stumped at the mont. He only knew that his mind was a ss and that he absolutely could not be defeated by a new singer.
With years of flattery and praises from fans and industry seniors alike, he grew arrogant. His juniors and peers envied him and he was always surrounded by applause and flowers. He was in God’s favor.
‘I can’t lose no matter what! I must not lose!’
Su Muyan had not walked far when suddenly soone appeared from the office next door and caught him off guard. They bumped into each other and all the docunts in a file box were scattered on the floor.
Despite being so annoyed and very close to losing it, Su Muyan had to maintain his poise. He looked at the startled secretary and asked, “Are you okay?”
“Yes, I’m fine.” She was Director Zhang’s secretary who had quit and ca to pack her things. She did not expect to run into the company’s top star, Su Muyan. She quickly knelt to pick up her files. “I’ll manage.”
Su Muyan was extrely frustrated and nodded before turning to leave.
However, he glanced as he was leaving and saw the two words “Green Silk”. The paper was crumpled and the lyrics were handwritten.
His pupils constricted. He bent down to pick up the paper, and when he saw the lyrics, he turned glum. His voice was tense as he asked, “Where did this co from?”
The female secretary took a look and smiled shyly. “This was left behind by soone who broke into the Director’s Office about half a month ago. I forgot to throw it away.”
She had no idea what happened that day. When she was throwing away the trash, she sohow picked up this crumpled piece of paper and put it in the folder, but she forgot about it until now.
Su Muyan turned pale at the secretary’s words. He felt like he had been struck by lightning. The darkness in his eyes erged as he squeezed the paper tighter in his hand. He wanted to tear it to pieces.
‘Ha! Great! What a good manager and Music Director!’
