The next day.

All the songwriters at Starlight Entertainment opened the company’s main group chat, the first message they saw was from Gu Qiangyun:

“Congratulations to Mr. Lin on the successful deal!”

Even though everyone felt that this deal was secured after hearing “Rivers and Lakes Laugh”, they were still somewhat shocked by the message before them.

“It’s done just like that?”

“No modifications needed?”

“Isn’t it usual to have some kind of modification request?”

“Mr. Lin is just too awesome.”

“Salute to the big shot!”

“Offering up my knee to the great one!”

Under normal circumstances, even if the client is satisfied with the song, they will put forward some modification suggestions to make it better suited to their game.

Only when they are completely satisfied will they choose to use it directly without any modifications.

Obviously.

“Rivers and Lakes Laugh” is a perfect fit and doesn’t need any modifications at all.

By the way.

Does the client know how long it took Mr. Lin to create this song?

If they knew, their faces must’ve been quite a sight to behold, right?

Well, maybe not.

At first, everyone was taken aback.

But after some careful thought, someone guessed that the reason why Lin Yuan was able to complete this martial arts game’s order so quickly was because he had a backlog of unpublished works.

Among the works he had accumulated, there was probably a song like “Rivers and Lakes Laugh”.

The song just happened to meet the client’s demands.

So he didn’t have to compose at all, just needed to make some slight modifications to complete such a song…

This would explain the seemingly miraculous scene in everyone’s eyes.

The coincidence is indeed striking.

However, compared with the idea that Lin Yuan had written “Rivers and Lakes Laugh” in such a short time, everyone found this speculation more plausible. How can a normal person compose a song so quickly?

Of course, no one would question Mr. Lin’s specific reasons.

Lin Yuan was clearly a formidable character, as if these four words were written on his face:

I’m quite aloof.

So, without knowing him well, people didn’t have the courage to initiate a conversation, especially considering that he was so young and already held an ace position in the field of music composition.

However.

Everyone thinks back to yesterday when Gu Dong asked Mr. Lin in the group chat about his preferred music style, and he actually answered:

“Expensive ones.”

Thinking about it today, everyone still finds the situation a bit strange.

What do you mean by expensive?

You only excel at the expensive ones?

Lil Goodoong asked you about the style, why are you thinking about the price?

Is this the confidence of a big shot?

Confident to master any style?

Of course, people wouldn’t take him seriously.

There are so many styles of music, it’s impossible for anyone to be proficient in all of them.

But one thing is certain, Mr. Lin is indeed quite prideful, it can be said that he has a great deal of courage due to his skill.

What everyone fears, however, isn’t Lin Yuan’s arrogance.

What they are afraid of is Lin Yuan not having the ability.

If one has the ability, even if they act arrogant within the company, everyone can accept it.

It’s time to go get some more orders.

Previously, the songwriting department was always a bit restrained when taking orders because they were afraid they couldn’t deliver, but now that they have Mr. Lin, everyone is more confident.

Some people are not even going out with the thought of getting their own orders.

This time, they are completely pulling orders for Lin Yuan.

Obviously, this process won’t be smooth, after all, Starlight Music’s reputation in Qi Continent really isn’t that great.

Lin Yuan thought he would have to take a taxi to the company, but he was surprised to find that Gu Dong was waiting to pick him up early in the morning. “Thank you.”

Lin Yuan said as soon as he got in the car.

Gu Dong’s feelings towards Lin Yuan were completely different now. However, his enthusiasm remained the same: “It’s not convenient for you to take a taxi all the way from here to the office. It’s my job to assist you. Of course, I will be picking you up and dropping you off.”

Lin Yuan asked: “What about your previous works?”

Gu Dong laughed: “I used to be the manager’s assistant, but the company can’t afford any extra assistants. So, now that I am your assistant, he has to manage his own affairs. Anyway, the company’s business isn’t too busy, he can handle it.”

Lin Yuan understood.

Upon arriving at the company.

He went upstairs and knocked on Gu Qiangyun’s door: “Could you please send me details about the company’s singers? We need to prepare for the song recording.”

Gu Qiangyun was taken aback: “Which singers? We don’t have any singers in our company.”

Lin Yuan was also startled.

The branch company doesn’t have any singers?

Does this mean that once the song is sold, it has nothing to do with the company?

Seeing Lin Yuan’s expression, Gu Qiangyun probably guessed what was going on, and laughed bitterly: “Managing artists falls under artist management, we do not have the resources for that. You’re probably used to the ways of the headquarters.”

Lin Yuan frowned slightly.

Truth be told, he didn’t like leaving the production of the songs entirely to someone else.

Although, this song is provided by the system, and the money he gets from selling it is the same. Even if Lin Yuan participates in the recording process, he won’t get any extra money. But Lin Yuan has this type of compulsion-

He’s always worried that others will ruin these songs.

So he is very resistent to this kind of thing.

No matter how you look at it, if these songs are wasted because of him, Lin Yuan would feel guilty.

After all, in another world, these songs were the hard work of others.

That’s why he usually participates in the song recording process when he was in Qin Continent.

It’s only under some special circumstances that he hands it over to others.

But he won’t be staying in Qi Continent for long. It’s too late to train a group of singers for the branch company.

Gu Qiangyun started to get nervous.

He felt that Lin Yuan was not too pleased.

He can figure out something for other things but for this, he was really out of ideas.

He doesn’t have the extra money to engage in the singers’ business.

Lin Yuan understood Gu Qiangyun’s difficulties, so he said: “It’ll be fine this time, after all, you guys are following the contract. But before signing the contract in the future, please let the client know in advance that I have the final say in the recording of the song and the selection of the singers.”

What!

What the heck are you up to?

You’re directly challenging the client?

Gu Qiangyun felt his world collapsing: “Mr. Lin, there’s no such rule. The situation is, when signing contracts, it’s usually the client who puts forward their demands. We have no right to put forward conditions, the client is the boss, our job is to produce the songs…”

Lin Yuan looked at Gu Qiangyun.

Gu Qiangyun quickly corrected himself: “Of course I don’t mean that we are the sons of the client. Even if we are, you definitely aren’t. But considering the market situation in Qi Continent, we really don’t have the right to dictate terms to the client. If they don’t make things difficult for us, we should be grateful already!”

“Then we won’t sign.”

Lin Yuan did not intend to compromise.

Even if the client asked Lin Yuan to change the song, he would consider it as long as it’s a reasonable request.

Once the contract is signed, he should fulfil his obligations.

But to just give away the song, and not know how these songs will be treated afterwards, Lin Yuan cannot accept that.

“Mr. Lin.”

Gu Qiangyun tried to persuade him, “Please make allowances. Qi Continent and Qin Continent are not the same after all, we have our own rules here…”

“Please do as I said.”

Lin Yuan nodded slightly and returned to his office.
