Chapter 708: Miss Bai 281 is that composing genius_1
The music itself can’t constitute drama, but once integrated into the background, it can more directly influence the audience’s emotions and expand the drama’s expressiveness.
The old Dean’s “Blossoms on the Tree” took so long to create because it’s an original drama that the theatre has been heavily promoting in recent years.
The the song is not just a promotional track, but will also be integrated into the background music of the play.
Most people indeed wouldn’t dare to take on this task.
Secretary Xue and Gao Shu escorted Bai Lian downstairs, and as Ming Dongheng’s car drove away, Secretary Xue curiously looked at the CD in Gao Shu’s hand, “Miss Bai actually wrote it? The arrangent is done too? She can compose and arrange music?”
“I didn’t expect it either.” Gao Shu walked back to the office, where the computer can play CDs.
The two reached the office, and Gao Shu bent down to turn on the computer directly, while Secretary Xue opened the black CD case, revealing the logo inside—
Jiangjing Music Academy.
There was also a printed sheet of musical notation.
“Is it a CD recorded at Jiangyin?” Secretary Xue was sowhat stunned, since Jiangyin’s recording studios aren’t easily accessible to just anyone.
Gao Shu took the silver CD she picked up and inserted it, not as surprised.
When the CD was inserted, Gao Shu clicked on the drive and played the music inside.
Secretary Xue took the opportunity to make Gao Shu a cup of tea, guessing that Gao Shu would definitely want to drink tea while enjoying the song, and might even need to loop it several tis. She handed the tea to Gao Shu, “Tomorrow I’ll find a singer to release this song.”
At this mont, both of them felt much better, although they had almost never thought of using Bai Lian’s song as the the tune.
The recording was rushed, the video had no content, just pitch black, and as the blue progress bar appeared below, the dense drum beats pulled in from afar.
Gao Shu and Secretary Xue were originally laughing and discussing, but upon hearing the introduction, Gao Shu—who was sipping tea with lowered eyes—imdiately straightened up. She suddenly looked up and put down her tea cup.
Her wrist resting on the desk, and her previously lax posture leaning back in the chair, she now sat upright.
The demo was a trial singing version. When the beautiful female voice joined in the middle, Gao Shu and Secretary Xue felt goosebumps. During the chorus, the pipa sound vanished for a few seconds, leaving only the lodious singing.
It was like the calm before a storm, with dark clouds obscuring the sun, bringing quiet yet suffocating tension.
Gao Shu’s fingers, resting on the table, twitched slightly. The next second, when the Guzheng Matrix started, she felt a chill down her spine, as if leaves were breaking through the air, and her cheek was scratched by a leaf carrying a threatening aura!
The 4-minute and 59-second track finished quickly, and after the player finished the song without looping, it stayed in a ready-to-play state.
However, the two in the office couldn’t react, as they had watched the rehearsals several tis and were too familiar with the plot. Even people unfamiliar with the story would be swayed by the undercurrents in the lyrics, let alone them.
After a while, Gao Shu snapped back to reality and clicked the play button with her mouse once more.
After listening once, they played it several more tis.
After a good long while, she finally exhaled deeply, her knuckles whitening slightly as she pressed on the table, her chest heaving, “Xue Na, go and ask Bei Tong and Qin Si to co over.”
If just after hearing the song written by Shuo Qingyu, she felt that it encapsulated the tension of “Blossoms on the Tree” very well, a student of Teacher Xia’s music composition indeed had no comparison.
Even laypeople could discern the good from the bad.
Now, with the song that Bai Lian had brought out, the sense of calm yet hidden danger it evoked was several levels higher than Shuo Qingyu’s work. Not to ntion Gao Shu, even Secretary Xue could tell the difference in quality.
At this point, Gao Shu finally understood why Bai Lian had left with that remark, “You won’t have ti to cook these next few days.”

This ti Xue Na didn’t send a text, but went directly backstage to find the two main actors.
Today, Jiu Yinghui invited the male and female leads, as well as the old Dean, to a al. Bei Tong and Qin Si, the two leads, had just changed out of their costu clothing and removed their makeup to change into their own clothes.
When Xue Na arrived, Bei Tong had already picked up his military coat, ready to leave the backstage.
It was evident that he was excited, looking forward to the gathering.
Both were ticulously selected young people who had secured the leading male and female roles in “Blossoms on the Tree,” destined to beco the backbone of the theatre company.
“Secretary Xue.” Bei Tong’s appearance was not the typical idol in entertainnt circles, but rather rugged, with highly adaptable features.
Having listened to Bai Lian’s composition, Xue Na felt much more relaxed, dispelling the aimlessness of the afternoon. She ntioned to the two leads about going straight to Gao Shu’s office later to get familiar with the the song.
After Xue Na left, Bei Tong’s phone rang again. It was Jiu Yinghui’s assistant inquiring about their whereabouts.
