I Was Stuck on the Same Day For a Thousand Years

Chapter 157: Do you think I look like a fool?

Song Xuan had been tricked by others.

Influenced by her mother, she had a musical dream since she was a child. Although her mother Wu Yurong always opposed it, she did not forbid her to take music as a hobby, because that was also her mother Wu Yurong’s current hobby.

Song Xuan studied business administration at East China University, and she followed her mother’s arrangement to study, but most of her spare time was spent on various things related to music. She liked to write songs and wanted to become a singer. It was known in the university.

Song Xuan started collecting songs not long after entering East China University, because East China University had a music school with many majors.

She also wrote songs herself and posted them anonymously on major online music platforms, but they didn’t cause any waves.

The reason why she posted the song anonymously… She knew very well that if she showed her face and released the song, or even entered the streaming industry, she would soon be popular!

But she didn’t do this, firstly because her family would not allow it, and secondly, she didn’t want to “become famous by her face”!

She was not short of money!

Her love for music was pure! It had nothing to do with money!

No matter how popular a singer she could be, she would never make more money than her family!

She just simply wanted to be a singer and wanted the public to like her singing.

She was also very aware of how beautiful she was, and she understood very well that if she showed her face, no one would pay attention to her singing.

She didn’t want to be like this.

In the past two years, she released a lot of songs, and she received thousands of songs.

There were too many, and it was also because she was beautiful that too many people wrote songs for her and wanted to sell them to her. Most of them were men.

In the matter of receiving songs, she had been “tricked” not once or twice.

Usually to get close to her, they just write something casually, and then come to her to sell.

Some even didn’t ask for money. They say that they’d just give it to her.

Song Xuan was very annoyed by these things and felt that those people were so boring, but she had a good temper and never got angry with anyone because of this. After all, no one dared to disturb her too much!

In East China University, she was the object that those “brothers” dared not chase after. The richer the family, the less they dared to approach her, for fear of being misunderstood!

It was because her mother, Wu Yurong let her go and forbade her to fall in love in college!

She had to wait until after graduation.

She let go of Wu Yurong’s temper and style, and if she didn’t let her daughter fall in love during college, then the children of other families in Donghai would naturally be warned by the family!

But they didn’t just go after Song Xuan just because she was pretty… If Wu Yurong found out, something big would happen!

It was also because those rich and powerful young masters in the university did not dare to approach Song Xuan easily, which led to ordinary male students having the courage to approach Song Xuan and the excuse to be able to approach Song Xuan.

Wu Chen was still writing.

The writing speed was also super fast, and the writing was very beautiful.

Finally…

“Okay…” After Wu Chen finished writing, he put down his pen, looked up at Song Xuan, and handed over the notebook, “Look?”

Although he already felt that Wu Chen might be here to play tricks on her, she hadn’t read the song yet. It would definitely be wrong to jump to conclusions about the specifics. Song Xuan was skeptical, and out of politeness, she still had a sweet smile on her face.

After taking the notebook, Song Xuan began to read the contents.

The lyrics were written… very well!

As for the melody… Song Xuan tried to “hum” in her mind, it was also very good!

Mixing was… hard to judge. You must listen to the effect to judge the mixing. It was very complicated just by looking at the text, and it was hard to imagine how good or bad it was.

“It’s not bad, it’s totally okay. It’s better than most of the songs I’ve received.” Song Xuan looked at Wu Chen with a smile and said, only giving a “good” evaluation, but said that it was better than most of the songs she had received. That’s a very high rating!

If an ordinary person, or a person with a rough understanding of music theory looks at these written by Wu Chen, the lyrics alone will feel very well written! If you try to hum the melody and watch the mix, you will have a “very good” feeling! And maybe even “not understand” or “amazing”!

This is because they don’t know it very well.

The more you know, the more you won’t!

The more you understand, the less they would think it was good!

It’s like many singers in Wu Chen’s previous life. Before they became famous, they wrote songs themselves. They wrote a lot. They even tried to write songs for some singers to show to others. The other party would not listen to it, and it was even regarded as “garbage”!

But the end result is that the person who wrote the song, after failing to sell the song, chose to sing it themselves, and then a hit! A huge hit! Even reached a phenomenon, leading the trend of pop music! Becoming a singer-songwriter!

That’s what happens.

But you can’t deny people who refuse to accept songs because of this kind of thing and think they are not good enough! That is not true.

Quite the opposite.

Those musicians who have achieved fame long ago really have high musical attainments!

Because of this, they have written too many songs, they have seen too many words, too many songs, too many people want to sell to them, thousands of new songs, they have seen and heard “Small Samples”, many of which they thought were good works, were not accepted by the public after they were released, and became extremely failed works!

Successful music had never been a “solitary pleasure”!

You have to like it yourself, and the public must also like it! Otherwise it is a failure!

As for Song Xuan’s music appreciation level, although it was far from the level of a professional musician, she collected too many songs and listened too many songs in the past few years. But they all turned out to be — terrific failures!

After posting it online, there was really no splash at all.

Now, Song Xuan, who had suffered a blow, would not give any song a top-level evaluation.

Song Xuan’s reaction was within Wu Chen’s expectations.

Wu Chen even knew what she was thinking at the moment!

“Buy it?” Wu Chen asked directly with a smile.

“Buy,” Song Xuan didn’t hesitate, she would definitely buy a song that she could rate as “good”.

“How much will you give?” Wu Chen asked Song Xuan again.The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.nᴇt

“One thousand.” Song Xuan directly quoted.

The price was not low!

There was no high barrier to entry in the songwriter industry. Composing music requires a little professional knowledge, but writing lyrics does not have it at all. It can be written by an individual, the difference between good and bad!

This led to too many people being mixed in this industry, not to mention ordinary people, but groups of people from various music colleges across the country. They had basically done writing and selling songs, and want to sell them to music companies. The email could be sent, but 99.9% of the works couldn’t even pass the initial review of the music company. The music company received a large number of such “junk lyrics” every day, and very few of them could be seen.

Because of this situation, the overall income of the songwriter industry was very low, since the competition is too fierce.

For example, if a music company received a song, it usually costed only 5,000 yuan! Those that could sell for tens of thousands of yuan were all excellent! But there were very few of them! Even for professional lyricists and composers, they only needed tens of thousands of dollars to write a song! Only some “golden brand” songwriters could make a lot of money, and they could even directly get the share after the release.

And Song Xuan, no matter what her family background was, she iwa just a student.

She collected songs at school, five hundred or one thousand at once, which was the normal price.

“I did the sound mixing,” Wu Chen reminded with a smile.

“Then… two thousand?” Song Xuan raised the price after thinking about it. She really didn’t care about money, and of course she wouldn’t be taken advantage of.

Wu Chen looked at Song Xuan with a smile and stopped talking.

“Three thousand?” Song Xuan understood what Wu Chen meant and raised the price again.

“One hundred thousand!” Wu Chen made an offer!

Song Xuan was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had heard it wrong, and then she stared at Wu Chen with a shocked expression on her face.

She heard it right, it was impossible to hear it wrong!

Wu Chen actually offered one hundred thousand!

This was a price that even a famous songwriter couldn’t get!

“Senior, you… are you here to play tricks on me?” Song Xuan calmed down and asked, “Do you think I look like I’ll be taken advantage of?”
