Eastern Han Organization
When Wang Ming Yang saw the international competition, he was immediately interested.
“Huan Yue, who do you think we should get to write English songs? Judging by the situation, Chinese songs aren’t too appropriate.”
Wang Ming Yang was very troubled. He had seen the situation on the Internet. That Jin Can was full of zest.
It wasn’t difficult to find an English song composer. But the hard part was getting well-written songs.
“I don’t know about that.” Wu Huan Yue shook her head. She had not dabbled in this field before.
Wang Ming Yang was frustrated. “Sigh. This brother of mine isn’t good at English. If only his English was a little better. Then, we would have no problems getting him to write a song.”
Knock knock
“Come in.”
Wang Ming Yang and Wu Huan Yue were just discussing this matter.
After all, this competition could be a huge opportunity for anyone. If Wu Huan Yue could garner fame outside of China, she would be bringing glory to the country. And she could get her name out there too.
However, the only problem was getting a song.
“Chief Wang, I just contacted a famous singer. He can help to compose a song,” said Yang Qian.
Yang Qian was Wu Huan Yue’s manager as well as her personal bodyguard. She knew some kungfu too. After all, Wu Huan Yue was a superstar now. She had to have a bodyguard.
Moreover, Wang Ming Yang definitely had to take good care of Wu Huan Yue. This was his Brother’s lady. If he didn’t protect her, he would end up in misery.
“Who is it?” asked Wang Ming Yang.
Yang Qian replied, “The old-school emperor, Zheng Ya. He has written lots of English songs and he’s very talented. If we hire him, we’ll be set.”
Wang Ming Yang thought for a moment. “Him, eh? I know him. He’s quite an impressive composer. But what conditions does he have?”
Yang Qian said, “We don’t know for now. He said he would think about it.”
“Think about it? It seems like he’s really interested!” Wang Ming Yang laughed. He had not expected that response. However, he wondered what exactly Zheng Ya would ask for.
Ding ding!
At that moment, Yang Qian’s phone rang. She took a look at the screen. “Chief Wang, it’s Zheng Ya.”
“Answer it then. Let’s see what he’ll ask for,” said Wang Ming Yang.
Yang Qian answered the call and turned on the loudspeaker.
“Hello. I’ve thought about it. I can write a few songs for Wu Huan Yue. However, I have to request your Chief Wang to help organize a solo concert for me.”
Zheng Ya’s voice could be heard through the phone.
When this request was stated, Wang Ming Yang’s expression suddenly changed.
Yang Qian said, “This request is a bit too much, isn’t it? We’re just asking for a few songs.”
“Haha. Actually, I’m just saying. With my current status, a song from me is worth a lot. I’ve been very busy lately. I’ve really been very busy. This is just a tactful way of rejecting your offer. I’m sorry.”
He hung up.
“This guy is a little unbridled.” Wang Ming Yang furrowed his brows. He had not expected such a request.
Yang Qian was speechless. “This guy must not have even considered it. He was just playing with us.”
“Chief Wang, actually, I don’t have to participate,” said Wu Huan Yue.
Wang Ming Yang shook his head. “That won’t do. Since there’s such an opportunity, why shouldn’t we give it a shot? Does that guy think he’s the only one who can write a song? He’s way too arrogant.”
At that moment, on the Internet.
Zheng Ya posted on Weibo.
“Eastern Han Organization’s Wu Huan Yue’s manager just called me to ask me to write a few songs for Wu Huan Yue. However, I rejected tactfully because I already promised to write songs for Jin Can. After all, to me, Jin Can’s abilities are pretty good. She should give the competition a shot.”
When this was posted, everyone was instantly stunned.
“D*mn. This is awesome. I didn’t expect the bigshot Zheng Ya would get involved and help Jin Can to write songs. That’s really amazing.”
“Haha. The bigshot rejected the Eastern Han Organization like that. Isn’t he afraid of being suppressed by them?”
“Suppressed my a*s. Even if the Eastern Han Organization were even more awesome, they wouldn’t be able to do anything.”
“That’s true. But it looks like Master Lin really isn’t going to write songs for her. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have approached Zheng Ya.”
“It can’t be helped. Master Lin’s English is just terrible. This is beyond his abilities.”
“This is quite a humiliation. Doesn’t this mean Jin Can is better than Wu Huan Yue?”
The netizens were discussing intensely over this topic. To them, this Zheng Ya was quite ferocious. However, he had the fame to back it up.
Eastern Han Organization.
When Wang Ming Yang saw the Weibo post, his expression changed.
“D*mn. What’s that guy’s problem? Is he explicitly going against me?” When Wang Ming Yang saw the post, he was so angry that his face turned red. It was an inexplicable rage.
Wu Huan Yue sighed. If she had just joined the industry, perhaps she would have been angry. However, looking at it now, it was very normal. There was no need to be angry at all.
As her manager, Yang Qian was very angry too. There had been no need to post it on Weibo, but Zheng Ya had gone and done it. That wasn’t right.
Jin Can’s agency.
“Hahaha. Elder Zheng played it beautifully. This will p*ss Wang Ming Yang off.” The person-in-charge of the agency was roaring with laughter.
He felt that this whole thing had been beautifully done. This would definitely draw a lot of hate.
As Jin Can looked at the Weibo post, she giggled. In the country, she had always been suppressed because of Wu Huan Yue. She had not gotten the recent award because of Wu Huan Yue too.
She had not gotten a single award.
Best song, best composer, best performer��� Not a single award had gone to her. She felt unyielding.
If Wu Huan Yue hadn’t had Master Lin, she would have nothing. In terms of voice, Jin Can felt that she would not lose to Wu Huan Yue. Why would she?
All Wu Huan Yue had was Master Lin.
Right now, everyone in the music industry was envious of Wu Huan Yue. It was all because she had Master Lin behind her to keep writing good songs for her.
Each of the songs written by him was a classic. It was completely shocking.
But this time, the tables had turned.
There was no way Master Lin could write English songs. It was impossible for Wu Huan Yue to take part in the international competition.
As for getting Zheng Ya to write songs for her, Wu Huan Yue could keep dreaming. After all, the Eastern Han Group had deep connections in other industries, but they only had very shallow connections in the music industry.
“Jin Can, you have to put in your best this time. There are several composers helping you. If you still don’t suppress her, it wouldn’t be right.”
Jin Can nodded. “I understand. I will work hard.”
She believed that there would be no problems at all.
