《Rebirth of the Entertainment Giant》Earning Money

When the accompaniment music slowly sounded, Wang Jingwen immediately entered her optimal state, and when she opened her mouth, that ethereal and soulful voice instantly captured the hearts of everyone present, making her the centre of attention.
"What a familiar voice!"
Listening to Wang Jingwen's clear and soft singing voice, Zhang Xiaohua was also moved by the emotion in her voice. He felt that Faye Wong was present in front of himself. Regardless of her image or voice, she could bring him a very strong sense of nostalgia. Feeling enthralled and moved, it seems as if he had returned to his past life and that time of unforgettable memories!
In order to get the remaining songs from Zhang Xiaohua, Wang Jingwen also focused on all the details, put all her feelings into this song, although it was the Cantonese version, she grasped every sound accurately, so much that people would feel that the song was truly about her. At the same time, she sounded like she wasn't singing, but instead telling her heart, expressing her emotions, her grief, her tenacity and her emotional strength, All aspects were vividly interpreted, and the song that flowed out was soothing and unhurried.
Zhang Xiaohua had to admit that this Wang Jingwen was a talented singer. She was born to sing.
Zhang Xiaohua was very pleased about this, he didn't even need to go out his way, fate just gave him a talented singer, God really did love him!
In order to live up to heaven's patronage, Zhang Xiaohua immediately dedicated himself to recording the video.
Although the environment was a bit monotonous and what was being shot here was not a professional music video, Wang Jingwen's image was fortunately perfect enough. He believed that once this video was put on the Internet, accompanied by the music, it would certainly cause a stir. Then with all the popularity received, it would only be a matter of time before the record companies took the initiative to find them.
"It was true that you were drunk on the night, so I finally found trust. Regardless of all doubts, happiness is a lover."
Finally, with the last sentence of the lyrics, Wang Jingwen could breathe a sigh of relief as she slowly took off her headset, quietly standing in front of the microphone. With a pair of smart pupils staring at the console before Yuan Datong, her pretty little face was full of expectations.
"Perfect, it's was truly perfect!"
Yuan Datong continued to cheer like a little child and expressed the results of the recording with joy.
Seeing this, Emma, Xiaohai, Haozi, Jimmy, and Jack also hurriedly put down the lights in their hands and swarmed to the side of Yuan Datong. Six people clung to each other and kept bouncing as they celebrated the company's first song.
For them, this was a meaningful occasion, as they believed in one thing -
- As long as you persist, there will be rewards!
So they were very fortunate, glad that they had insisted on the dream of music, had they chosen to give up just because the business of the studio wasn't good, how would today's success come to be?
For a moment, everyone laughed with tears, tears of gratitude, gratitude for this long awaited success, and of course, for the person who brought them this success!
This person was Zhang Xiaohua. Who else could it be?
Suddenly, everyone turned their heads and went straight to Zhang Xiaohua.
Before Zhang Xiaohua could react to what happened, he was already surrounded by the crowd. They immediately lifted him up and repeatedly threw him high up in the air and caught him for over a minute, before they became exhausted and unwillingly put him down.

At this time, Yuan Datong was lying on the ground and they were all exhausted. However, they could not conceal their happy smile on their faces.
Zhang Xiaohua was calm on the surface, but in fact his heart has been refreshed.
This was the first time in both of his lives that he was treated like part of a group. At the moment, he felt like a triumphant hero for not only being promoted to the core of the group, but also possessing an unshakeable leading position.
This feeling of hope was addicting!
Taking advantage of this good mood, Zhang Xiaohua looked up at Wang Jingwen who had been in silence. He was actually showing her with a smile for the first time. He looked at her with admiration.
Under normal circumstances, a singer could hardly record a song in two days. However, Wang Jingwen had completed it in one go, there was no pause in the middle. Zhang Xiaohua started to see her with different light.
"You sang well, I hope you will redouble your efforts in the future. Don't let the company and your fans be disappointed." Zhang Xiaohua praised her with smile.
Wang Jingwen calm face immediately made a joyful smile. Although Zhang Xiaohua did not make it clear, Wang Jingwen had already understood his implication. He was euphemistically telling her that the remaining five songs would be sung by her!
"Thank you, boss, I will definitely work hard!" Wang Jingwen was thrilled, and she even went straight to Zhang Xiaohua for a hug. Only in this way could she express her gratitude.
After a short break, Yuan Datong took the lead in getting up from the ground and looked forward with great expectations. "Xiao Hua, what are we going to do below? You speak, we all listen to you."
"Yes, boss, let's talk about it. What do we want to do next?"
Emma and the rest also straightened their backs, looking full of energy. They only waited for Zhang Xiaohua to arrange a new task for them.
Zhang Xiaohua, after watching the video just recorded and feeling satisfied, said to Datong Tong: "You put the just-recorded song into this video, make a music video, and then put the address of our company in. Remember not to write a phone number so we don't get harassed. I will then post it online."
"On the Internet?" Yuan Datong's brows were slightly wrinkled with confusion. But immediately, he suddenly smiled.
"Oh,you want to put this song on those paid video sites, and people spend money to download it." Or watch it. This is a good idea. It can both promote our songs and make money. This kind of double-edged sword is a good thing, I didn't even think of that!"
"Do you want money?" Zhang Xiaohua heard a wry smile: "Who would even spend money to watch an unknown video?"
"Ah!" Yuan Datong could not help but exclaimed, his eyes once again full of confusion: "What do you mean... to put this song online to make people listen to it for free?"
"Of course." Zhang Xiaohua was concise.
"You are going crazy!" Yuan Datong grimaced, as if watching a madman: "Brother, such an unprecedented song, even if the price was 500,000 RMB, I believe would still pay to listen to it. If you want to release it for free, then our losses will be huge!"
"Yeah, boss, I think we should still looking for a record company. I believe that after listening to this song, they will surely help us with the record. If it's not enough. We can go for sponsorship or find an investor, so that we can at least profit. If it is released to the Internet for free, then it would be a pity!" Emma said with a look of pleading, towards Zhang Xiaohua.

In fact, Zhang Xiaohua understands the feelings of these people. Although this song was provided by himself, they also participated in the creation. For these musicians, the songs they create are like their children, it would be excusable for them to give their children for free.
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and patiently explained: "This is called hunger marketing. It can also be called long-line fishing."
His plan would use song as a bait, the purpose was to attract those record companies to find cooperation, so that they could get the upper hand, also get priority in terms of speaking and contract terms.If they actively looked for those record companies, or for investors to sponsor them, then they would lose their advantage, and those companies would attempt to rip them off.
Speaking of this, Zhang Xiaohua flashed a confident light in his eyes and said: "The Internet is the fastest and most effective method. It can attract the attention of the public and the industry in a very short period of time. Then we can establish the demand for more songs, hence why we are making an album so please believe in me, as long as we do it according to my methods, I can guarantee that in less than a week, those record companies will surely flock to us. Once we have multiple choices, we can create competition between those record companies with them trying to out bid each other, we would naturally receive more benefits. I hope you will agree."
No one had a trace of reaction. Their faces were filled with astonishment. It seemed that they hadn't understood what Zhang Xiaohua was saying, or could even understand it like this, because Zhang Xiaohua's thinking and marketing model had gone far beyond the scope of understanding of this world. For Yuan Datong, Zhang Xiaohua's remarks are simply inscrutable, and it was indeed difficult to understand.
"What is hunger marketing?" Emma looked at Yuan Datong with a confused look and could not help but whisper.
"I don't know, but it does sound quite interesting." Yuan Datong scratched his head and laughed, a seemingly incomprehensible look, it even looked cute.
Zhang Xiaohua found it ridiculous, in his heart. It seemed that there is no such business strategy as "hunger marketing" in this world, but at the moment these people did not know that there were many small companies in the other world that had developed into international markets through this marketing model. Well-known big brands like Apple and Xiaomi would be good examples.
Of course, back on Earth, saying that they could attract the record companies to come to talk about cooperation with just a single song would be tantamount to daydreaming.
But in this world, it is another matter.
According to Zhang Xiaohua's investigation, he found that the people here had reached a point where finding good quality seemed like an elusive task, so Zhang Xiaohua had enough to use this marketing model to obtain substantial benefits.
The premise was that he must obtain the consent of Yuan Datong's and peers, because everyone was a partner, a friend, and a brother. Based on these points, Zhang Xiaohua was still unable to act arbitrarily, in other words, the minimum respect for friends and partners. He still had it.
The next moment, Yuan Datong gradually put a smile on his face and then took over the tablet computer Zhang Xiaohua had in his hand and took the lead in making a statement: "Although I do not really understand what you really want to do, but since you asked me to believe in you, then I will believe you."
No one else spoke at this time, they just used their firm eyes to show Xiaohua their heartfelt trust.
Faced with those eyes filled with trust, Zhang Xiaohua felt that his eyes were sour, and his heart was moved. It was actually a kind of urge to cry. He really did not know what to say.
This being the case, could he only use achievements to repay their trust in him?
The others were also gearing up for a fight, ready to go on the battlefield, and waiting for Zhang Xiaohua to distribute work.
A busy relationship that had been used for the past few days. Therefore, when they were suddenly idle, everyone felt really unaccustomed to it. If they did not find something to do, they would always feel uncomfortable.
Zhang Xiaohua was also infected by everyone's enthusiasm. At the moment, he went straight to his desk and turned on the computer. He wrote, "See you again", "I Hope You've Got Time," "Pieces," "Floating Years," and "The World". The lyrics of these five songs were all written down, then five copies were printed and distributed to Emma and all.
"The thing you have to do is very simple, that is, in accordance with my requirements, compose the instrumentals songs of these five songs, record them for Wang Jingwen, and then make the album. As for the following tasks, let's talk about it later."
"Roger that!"
Emma, Xiaohai, Haozi, Jack, and Jimmy responded with enthusiasm and began to devote themselves fully to work.
Zhang Xiaohua was not idle. He constantly gave various opinions to Emma. He must make sure that the instrumentals would be able to satisfy all the his songs. At the same time, he also taught Wang Jingwen how to sing the songs. Everyone was responsible for their duties, and all tirelessly worked at it, making the atmosphere lively!
........
Unconsciously, it was already 5 pm.
At this point, under the cooperation of everyone, the instrumentals for those five songs started taking shape. He believed that in less than a week, five classics would come out one after another.
Of course, Zhang Xiaohua had a massive advantage in this part. After all, he just needed to fully describe the beat and the tone he wanted. This undoubtedly accelerated the creation of songs.
At the request of Zhang Xiaohua, Yuan Datong was also busy at the moment. The video from Wang Jingwen's recording was made into a simple music video, and the lyrics were added to the bottom of the screen, including the company's address.
Zhang Xiaohua watched it again and couldn't help but smile and praise himself as a genius!
This level of shooting, even if compared with those professional photographers wasn't too inferior, the picture had completely reached a professional level, but also amplified the effects they wanted.
Haha, it seems that the efforts I have made over the past few days have finally brought a small return today. It is believed that it will not take long for my own "director's dream" to be realised.
After boosting his own ego for a while, Zhang Xiaohua looked at the time and realised that everyone had been working for 8 hours already. During this time, he didn't even get to eat, but the strange thing was that he didn't feel tired at all. He was being influenced by this group of "workaholics"
Working with these people was simply to enjoyable!
However, since everyone was so hard at work, He had to express himself as a boss, so Zhang Xiaohua immediately took out the attitude of the boss, slammed his hands said: "Well, everyone take a break and say what you want to eat tonight, I'll treat you and make sure we leave full!"
When he spoke, the entire company suddenly became silent. All eyes were concentrated on Zhang Xiaohua, but no one was happy. Instead, the mood was depressing.
After a brief silence, Emma's asked, "Boss, wouldn't you want to invite us to dinner at Star City Hotel?"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said without hesitation: "Do you want to go to the Star City Hotel? Oh, no problem at all. We can leave at any time."
Emma wanted to cry but had no tears, but she really wanted to go back again for round two.
Fortunately, last time Ling Feng helped pay the bill, everyone knew he only did so to keep his face. If he went again this time, He was afraid that of being bombarded by others before even passing through the door.
In order not to repeat the mistakes, Yuan Datong hurriedly proposed: "There is a big stall on the opposite side of the street. I think we can eat there. The chef's cooking is no worse than those of star-rated chefs."
"That's right, I haven't eaten in food stalls for a long time. I have to eat my fill today." Emma immediately helped. The others also crazily nodded.
At this time, only Wang Jingwen had a blank look, kept looking at the left and right: 'What is wrong with these people? They want to be treated for a meal, but now they are refusing to go to the five-star hotels and want to go to a food stall instead.'
Thinking of this, Wang Jingwen directly ignored the existence of Yuan Datong's peers and went straight to Zhang Xiaohua and said: "Boss, they don't wanna go, I'll accompany you. I have an acquaintance at the Star City Hotel, she can get us reservations plus if we need to entertain guest she can help us book a floor."
"Does our company have guests to entertain at the Star Hotel?"
"I'm talking about the future, when we reach the same size as New Century" Wang Jingwen smiled and corrected herself. She now belonged to HuaXiang Entertainment but her face was a little prouder when she mentioned New Century, as if she was still part of it, giving people a feeling that she was living for the day she would return to her old club.
On the contrary, with the introduction of New Century Entertainment Company, The first picture floating in Zhang Xiaohua's head was Cao Dequan's hateful face. Then the relentless betrayal of Cao Feifei.
Driven by anger, Zhang Xiaohua eyes suddenly burst into two cold lights, he yelled at Wang Jingwen: "Since you want to go, then you can go by yourself. We don't have the financial resources of New Century Corporation, so we can only go to those stalls."
"Boss, I..."
"When you go, remember to lock the door and come to work tomorrow. If you dare to be late, it will be at your own risk."
Before Wang Jingwen could say anything, Zhang Xiaohua turned and left. Yuan Datong followed him. When everyone passed Wang Jingwen, they seemed to want to say something to her but found that they could not find the appropriate words. Silently sighing, they followed Zhang Xiaohua away.
