Novel Full Chapter 209
Chapter 209 – Decisive Director Du
Although the latest episode of “Music Fast Fast Fast” has not yet been aired, the news of Mo Fei’s performance of Mu Li’ang’s new song on the show had already spread, and many entertainment media had also reported that Mu Li’ang had written 12 songs for Mo Fei.
This was quite shocking!
Some enthusiastic entertainment tabloid reporters even went to Chen Yijie’s house to ask him about the matter. Chen Yijie, a good man wearing big shorts and a loose t-shirt and was preparing to go shopping with his wife, was a little confused.
“The songwriter who you worked with before, Mu Li’ang, has now written songs for Mo Fei? How do you feel about it?” This question was asked in a way that was similar to asking a wronged wife with evidence of her husband’s infidelity.
Fortunately, Chen Yijie was used to dealing with these reporters and immediately responded with a smile, “Of course, it’s a good thing! If this rumor is true, I’m happy for Mo Fei. Mr. Mu Li’ang’s songs are excellent, and Mo Fei is also a very talented singer. I like her a lot and I’m looking forward to their collaboration.”
“Mu Li’ang wrote 12 songs for Mo Fei, but only wrote two songs, or rather one and a half songs, for you. Chen Yijie, don’t you feel betrayed?” The tabloid reporter continued to press on.
Chen Yijie has a good temper, and he said with a smile, “Why would I? Songwriters don’t just serve one singer, let alone Mr. Mu Li’ang. He’s such an outstanding creator and naturally receives many invitations! Of course, I still want to tell Mr. Mu Li’ang that if he has any good male vocal songs, he should save some for me! I don’t need 12, I’ll be very happy with just one! Although I don’t have plans for a new album yet, it never hurts to be prepared!”
Chen Yijie’s involvement caused a stir around Mo Fei’s new song. Many fans of Mu Li’ang and Chen Yijie, as well as some fans of Mo Fei, who had previously given up on her, began to pay attention to this series of news and were all looking forward to the broadcast of this show.
What kind of “spark” will the cooperation between Mo Fei and Mu Li’ang create?
……
In Shanghai, Li Manman had her agent review her self-introduction email to Mu Li’ang countless times, carefully considering every word, before finally sending it.
The email was filled with sincerity, not only introducing herself and expressing her admiration for Mu Li’ang, but also attaching some of her more representative songs. Of course, the audio files were not of studio quality and were even more exaggerated than her released album. Behind the scenes, they underwent exquisite post-production…
“Sister Yi, do you think this will work?” Li Manman asked her agent with some concern.
Yi Qi was her sixth agent and the golden agent assigned to her by the company after she began to rise. She pushed her gold-rimmed glasses and smiled faintly, “Of course it will work. The road needs to be taken step by step, and a meal needs to be taken one bite at a time. You don’t have to worry, just build a relationship with Mu Li’ang first and then slowly ask him to collaborate on a song with you!”
That’s right. With the guidance of Yi Qi, Li Manman’s email was edited to remove her intention of asking Mu Li’ang to write songs for her. She only sent her audio and asked Mu Li’ang to give her some advice, without any additional requests!
Yi Qi analyzed from the current news about Mu Li’ang, and she believed that Mu Li’ang wasn’t a person who was greedy for money and honor. If Li Manman was too impatient, it would only cause Mu Li’ang to dislike her.
“Manman, you should understand without me saying it. It’s the same principle as fishing for rich men. We women can’t just cling to them desperately. If we’re too anxious, it will backfire. Even if we succeed, men won’t know how to cherish it.”
Yi Qi held Li Manman’s enchanting face in her hand and smiled, “On the contrary, being a bit reserved and giving him subtle hints satisfy a man’s vanity, and he will chase after you like a cat that smells a fish. Then, you can have him do whatever you want.”
Li Manman showed a sweet smile. She didn’t know whether to be disdainful or grateful in her heart, but at this moment, she was like a naive girl being guided, blushing and smiling happily.
“That’s right, that’s how it is! Those men who haven’t seen the world will definitely be fascinated by you…” Yi Qi said with a smile.
……
In a large conference room at the Student Activity Center of Jiangcheng Media University, a group of students were actively discussing the program arrangement for the freshman party.
“The number of singing programs reported is 40% higher than that of dance and instrumental performances, and there are only three sketch programs. This is not good. All of them are singing programs, and the content of our party will appear to be very homogeneous.”
After a clear and somewhat imposing voice sounded, the buzzing discussion in the conference room stopped.
If Guo Ziyi had been present, he would definitely recognize that the girl speaking was his dream girl, Senior Sister Du Yuanlei!
“Director Du, but after all, this is a party organized by the students themselves. Apart from those majoring in instrumental music and performing arts who have professional backgrounds, the rest of the students tend to sing, which is normal. As for the sketch performances, having three is already pretty good compared to the previous year when we only had one,” said a male student beside her.
Director Du, that’s right, Du Yuanlei was the overall director of this freshman party. Although she was also a freshman, after all, she has already studied directing at Jiangcheng Media for four years. She has directed many evening parties and student films before, and even directed a small documentary series that aired on a certain satellite TV channel!
It could be said that no one would question her qualifications!
“Only by striving for excellence in our programs can we achieve breakthrough results. If we compare ourselves to our past achievements every time, and relax our standards, we will only become worse and worse!” Du Yuanlei said coldly. She usually just like to observe and rarely spoke, but when directing, she was tough and the others were immediately silenced.
“Hua Tuo, go talk to the people in charge of these three programs and see if they can merge their performers to sing together. Xiaoyan, you go find a teacher from the drama department to help select a few talented students and rehearse a play. And Liao Chaoyi, aren’t you skilled in magic? You come up with a program!” Du Yuanlei made arrangements without hesitation.
Hua Tuo and Xiaoyan quickly nodded, but Liao Chaoyi hesitated for a moment.
“What’s the problem?” Du Yuanlei looked over.
Liao Chaoyi was stared at by her almond eyes, and suddenly felt suffocated. He quickly waved his hand and said, “No, no problem.”
“Okay then. Xiaoyan, while you’re at it, go to the piano department and ask for a piano student to accompany Liao Chaoyi. Just doing magic performances can be too monotonous…”
“Yes!” everyone answered in unison.
“As for the suggestion just now to have Thousand Miles Chuan-Shu1 do a warm-up performance, who made that proposal?” Du Yuanlei looked around. 𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗹．𝐨𝗿𝗴
A girl weakly raised her hand and said softly, “Actually, it’s okay not to invite them. After all, they’re not new students, and they only know how to sing…”
“No, we should invite them! I know about the Thousand Miles Chuan-Shu group. Let’s have them come and sing their representative works!” Du Yuanlei smiled slightly. “As a student group that was recently signed by an entertainment company, everyone’s expectations of them should be high!”
