Chapter 76 The advantage is mine
Zheng Lei thought it was impossible when he heard it: "Not really. If she does this and it's exposed later, it will be over. Xia Anruo can't be that stupid. Besides, I asked around about her new songs, and they shouldn't be the two songs Cai Qinghong wrote before."
No one with a normal mind would do such a thing. If you do such a thing when you know that someone is targeting you, aren't you just giving your opponent a handle?
Could Xia Anruo be so stupid?
"Could it be that Xia Anruo was forced into a corner by me and just found a work by a grassroots songwriter to fill in the gaps?" Xu Ya didn't understand. She didn't find a teacher to cooperate with, so where did the new song come from?
Picked it up on the road?
This is what I picked up!
"Although I don't know the author, the quality of the song may be very high." Zheng Lei felt that considering Xia Anruo's previous attitude of arguing with Zhao Xiaosheng over the quality of the album, it was unlikely that she would choose to do something shoddy.
Even if the possibility of the album being cancelled in a few days is higher than the possibility of it being a shoddy product.
"How high-quality songs can an unknown person write?" Xu Ya smiled.
"You forgot her last song 'Legend', which was also written by an author you've never heard of. It's not uncommon for a young author to write a good song occasionally." Zheng Lei reminded.
Last time, Xia Anruo suddenly sang a song "Legend" from somewhere and made a comeback, causing Zheng Lei's plan, which had been arranged for so long to bring down Xia Anruo, to fall apart.
"The reason why Legend performed so well last time was entirely because she ate up the traffic we used to blackmail her. If it weren't for the right time, place and people, we wouldn't have achieved such high results." Xu Ya was not worried about this problem.
This time there is not so much traffic for her to consume, so both parties can only rely on their own hard power.
"Then you can't underestimate your enemy. Who knows what the quality of her song will be this time?" Zheng Lei wondered if you could stop putting flags on him.
You're becoming more and more like a small-time villain in a novel.
This is like you're going to be slapped in the face at any minute.
Can she win?
Can I lose?
Yu Tuo, save me!
"She should think about how to get the big names to collaborate with first, otherwise she will be in trouble after the new album is released."
Xu Ya did not comment on Zheng Lei's concerns. Even though the quality of Xia Anruo's album this time was really high, without the gimmick of Cai Qinghong, Xu Ya did not think that Xia Anruo had the ability to surpass her own.
In terms of popularity, Xu Ya can be said to be a level above Xia Anruo.
In terms of hype, Xu Ya's collaborator for her new album is her exclusive lyricist and composer. Although his qualifications and fame are not as good as the already famous Cai Qinghong, it is definitely better than Xia Anruo who does not even have a partner now.
As for strength, that goes without saying.
Regardless of popularity, gimmicks, or strength, Xu Ya said: The advantage is mine, how can I lose?
"Old Zheng, can you help me get some more navy to add fuel to the fire for Xia Anruo?" Xu Ya didn't mind the big deal and just wanted to disgust Xia Anruo.
"Okay, I'll go and give the instructions." Zheng Lei didn't object.
……
This is Xinghua.
Liao Qing was also discussing this matter with Xia Anruo in the office.
"The new album will be released next week, but you still haven't found a new partner." Liao Qing has been worrying about this.
Over the past long time, both the company and Liao Qing have contacted some gold medal producers or songwriters.
But basically the replies were things like time was too tight, there was no time, or they couldn't write it.
After all, there is only so much time left, and those big guys are careful about their reputation and don't want to fail.
"If there is no information, forget it. Just don't announce it." Xia Anruo was very casual about this matter.
In her opinion, as long as the album is of high quality, it’s fine, and she doesn’t really care about gimmicks or anything like that.
Songs are more important than anything else.
"But didn't you see that many people are discussing this issue in your comment section? How are you going to explain to your fans and passersby if you don't announce it?" Liao Qing said. "Anyway, since he was promoted as a mysterious celebrity before, just say that the teacher is not willing to reveal his identity for the time being and let them guess." Xia Anruo waved her hand.
"You are still quite single. Are you sure you won't get scolded for doing this?" Liao Qing was also impressed by Xia Anruo's boldness.
This is your album, why are you acting like nothing happened...
They promoted it for a long time before, but now they suddenly say they won’t announce it?
Aren’t you kidding your fans?
"What else can we do? It's too late to find someone to write a song now." Xia Anruo looked helpless.
I feel like I have an exam tomorrow and there is no point in reviewing.
"How about asking the company to see if there are any other teachers who have extra songs? Even if the quality is not good, they can collect them and put them in your album. This way, we can have the name of a cooperation." Liao Qing thought for a long time and came up with an idea.
"How can it be a hit song if the quality is not good? If it's not a hit song, wouldn't it be selling dog meat under the guise of mutton? Then you'll be criticized to death..." Xia Anruo thought about it for a moment and rejected the suggestion.
"Yeah, I'd better go ask Zhao Xiaosheng for his opinion." Liao Qing saw that he and Xia Anruo couldn't come to a conclusion, so he had to go and report to Zhao Xiaosheng.
After listening to Liao Qing's report, Zhao Xiaosheng pondered for a while: "You should know who the author of An Ruo's new song, Tu Dou, is. Ask him if he is willing to reveal his identity?"
"I know him, but he's not a big shot." Liao Qing was stunned when he heard that.
Chu Ze is not a senior musician, and his only selling point is probably that he is the author of "Legend".
However, it is unlikely that Chu Ze would agree to disclose this identity, but that doesn't mean there is no selling point.
He is just a college student who is even more ordinary than Louis Koo.
"It's not a big name?" Zhao Xiaosheng was stunned. "Then it should be somewhat famous, right?"
"No, he's just a newcomer who wrote a song for An Ruo this year." Liao Qing said.
"Newcomer? Are you sure?" Zhao Xiaosheng frowned.
"I'm not lying." Liao Qing shook his head.
"I don't think the quality of those three songs could be written by an unknown newcomer. Even if you tell me that they were written by Cai Qinghong before, I would believe it." Zhao Xiaosheng had an expression of disbelief, staring into Liao Qing's eyes as if he wanted to see something from her eyes.
The quality of any of those three new songs is not something that an average person can write. It's OK for a newcomer to write one song, but to write three masterpieces in such a short period of time...
This is not a matter of just moving your fingers.
What do you think of this triple button?
Liao Qing said: Yes, yes, that’s right, that’s the expression!
She had the same expression when she first heard about it.
"He's really a newcomer, and he uses a pseudonym because he doesn't want to reveal his identity." Liao Qing explained.
"Since there is no other way, we can only deal with it coldly. Release something else as soon as possible to attract fans' attention to the new song, and then control the comments. After a long time, the heat will pass and it won't matter even if others remember it again." Zhao Xiaosheng said after a headache.
"Row."
Looking at Liao Qing's departing back, Zhao Xiaosheng tapped the table with his fingers, pondering what Liao Qing had just said.
If new artists can just casually write quality songs, what will happen in the future?
Perhaps this person could be considered for contact later.
