Chapter 270 No One Understands... Better Than Me

Tianqi Music.

Hua Chenyu has been in a great mood lately.

Just this month, Tianqi Entertainment proactively changed his contract to an A-level agency agreement, the kind reserved for first-tier singers.

Moreover, Tianqi Music also found several well-known songwriters in the industry to write songs for him, intending to take advantage of this favorable wind and rush into the first tier in one go.

In Hua Chenyu's eyes, this wasn't a problem at all.

His fan base was growing by tens of thousands every day, and the price of his commercial performances was gradually approaching that of first-tier artists.

It could be said that he was now a quasi-first-tier singer!

He had a certain status in Tianqi Music.

And through the tireless efforts of his agent, he successfully obtained the opportunity to create music for a new movie under Lu Xuan's company.

If he could seize this opportunity, he would soar into the sky!

He immediately sent the work he had written in seclusion for three months to the movie's director.

As long as this song could become popular along with the movie, then reaching the first tier would be within his grasp!

Thinking of this, the smile on Hua Chenyu's face grew even brighter.

Seeing his agent walking towards him, he took the initiative to say, "Brother Zhang, I've already sent the song to the other party. Just wait for my good news!"

"Uh..."

Brother Zhang's face wore an awkward smile, unsure of how to speak.

According to the company's designated promotional strategy, they had packaged Hua Chenyu as a musical genius.

He knew very well in his heart that this was just packaging.

Hua Chenyu simply didn't have such creative ability.

But his狂热 (kuangre - fervent) fans left messages under Hua Chenyu's Weibo every day, calling him "Brother, Brother."

This made Hua Chenyu mistakenly believe that he was truly a musical genius, a leading figure in new-generation music.

If it had been before Hua Chenyu became famous, he would have scolded him severely to wake him up.

But with Hua Chenyu's current status, he couldn't say those words no matter what.

He had to be careful and cater to him.

Originally, he had painstakingly obtained such an opportunity, intending to use a high-quality piece of music written by a lyricist to complete this collaboration.

But after Hua Chenyu found out, he eagerly took over the task.

He had naturally heard the new song and could only describe the song "Ghost" as utter nonsense.

He now only hoped that the director would reject it directly after receiving the music and not release the song.

Otherwise, it would truly be nailed to the pillar of shame.

Sighing, he placed Hua Chenyu's recent schedule on the table and then left.

Hua Chenyu didn't notice the abnormality of his agent and was still happily fantasizing about becoming famous in one battle!

This was a movie under Lu Xuan's banner!

Clearly, even Lu Xuan couldn't come up with a song, yet he had.

Didn't that mean he was stronger than Lu Xuan?

This was the best opportunity to step on Lu Xuan to rise to the top!

This song "Ghost" was his declaration of war against Lu Xuan, showcasing his talent to the fullest!

He would let this legendary figure in the industry see who was the real genius!

Hua Chenyu had already figured out how he would show off this matter to his fans.

At this moment, the agent who had just left returned, his face complex, and said, "Your song has been returned by the director. The director doesn't think it's suitable. Why don't you try the song the company prepared for you!"

Hua Chenyu immediately stood up from his chair and said in disbelief, "My song was returned?"

"Yes, I just received an email."

The expression on Hua Chenyu's face instantly became extremely ugly.

He hadn't even considered that the song he had carefully prepared could be returned!

"That's impossible!"

"No one understands music or art better than me!"

"This song was specifically prepared for this movie!"

"Could it be that Lu Xuan is jealous of my talent and returned my song!"

Brother Zhang felt that Hua Chenyu might be a little delirious at this point, and he was stuck in place, not knowing what to say.

"Call the director, I want to know why it was returned!"

"This is blatant suppression!"

......

Inside Lin Ying's villa, an intense discussion was underway.

Everyone wanted to come up with a plan to resolve the matter.

After all, the soundtrack was of utmost importance.

Lu Xuan even wanted to call Li Yaowen and ask him to put some effort into this matter.

He had been really busy lately, and "Hero" hadn't even been edited yet.

He simply couldn't spare the time to focus on the music.

Just then, Lin Ying's phone rang.

It was Hua Chenyu's agent, who had been in contact with her earlier.

Lin Ying looked at the phone and said, "Hua Chenyu's agent is calling. Maybe Tianqi Music has alternative plans. Should we give them another chance?"

Lu Xuan was more inclined to this solution and nodded.

"That would be best. Answer it and put it on speakerphone."

The call was connected, and a very anxious voice came from the other end.

"Director Lin, my 'Ghost' is the music I specifically composed for your movie, how could it be unsuitable!"

"You have to give me an explanation!"

No one in the room had expected such a question upon answering the call.

A slightly awkward expression appeared on Lin Ying's face.

She covered the microphone and whispered, "This is the singer, Hua Chenyu, not his agent."

But now, it was still difficult for Lin Ying to come up with a reason for the rejection.

He was a director, not a professional musician.

He simply felt that the song was not suitable, and the quality was worrying.

But it was indeed a little difficult for him to state a reason.

Seeing Lin Ying's dilemma, Lu Xuan took the initiative to say, "Hua Chenyu, right? There are many problems with your song."

"Whether it's the arrangement or your singing style, it's full of flaws."

"This song only has a few lines of lyrics, and the rest is your inexplicable howling. Do you think this can be called a song?"

"I know you want to express a sense of horror, and you also used the suona (Chinese wind instrument), but this is just an awkward hodgepodge. After listening to it twice, I felt like my ears were damaged."

Lu Xuan's words were not polite at all.

Hua Chenyu's questioning just now had already made him feel very uncomfortable.

But he was under Li Yaowen, and he felt it was better to point out the problems.

"Your creative ability is not enough. Now is not the time for you to create on your own, and it's too exaggerated. It's hard for me to imagine what kind of mental state you were in when you created this song."

"I..." Hua Chenyu became anxious and wanted to say something.

Lu Xuan didn't give him a chance to speak and continued:

"If you tell me that this is a avant-garde expression, then I'll tell you bluntly, this crap of yours is just a pretentious product that no audience can appreciate!"

"And in the video you sent, anyone who didn't know better would think you were a wizard casting a spell!"
