29: Chapter 29: Big Mimi's rendition of "The Power of Love"

Seeing this comment, Chen Shaoping just wanted to say that this netizen was still too naive.

However, 'Apple' was really good. If he weren't in the office, he would have wanted to rewatch it.

After returning home, he had to download and save it properly.

Just then.

Li Qian and Zhou Bule walked in.

"What's going on? Wang Bo just told me to go to Hang City together, but he wasn't very clear on the phone."

Li Qian asked impatiently as soon as she stepped into the office.

Chen Shaoping recounted the meeting between the two of them and Zhong Qinghou.

The more Li Qian listened, the brighter her smile became, her eyebrows raised, and the corners of her mouth turned up.

"How dare he hide good news from me? Just wait until I get my hands on him."

"Oh, right, why aren't you going with him?"

Chen Shaoping looked at Li Qian, thinking to himself: They're truly a family; even their questions are identical.

He explained again, admitting that he also had a lazy idea.

"What about you and Zhou Bule? How's it going?"

"Young Master Ping, thank you so much, I really love the song 'big fish'."

Zhou Bule was so excited he was dancing, clearly genuinely happy.

Li Qian praised, "His voice is clean and ethereal. Paired with 'big fish,' I got goosebumps all over when we recorded the demo."

"I didn't go to Director Chen, I just sent him the demo and made a call. As long as he listens to our demo, the theme song will be ours."

"Alright, just make the arrangements," Chen Shaoping responded.

...

Around seven in the evening, Chen Shaoping was cooking noodles at home. He had originally wanted to ask Zhang Ying out for dinner, but after knocking on her door for a long time, there was no response.

"Ding-ding!"

Chen Shaoping put a mouthful of noodles into his mouth with one hand and checked his phone with the other.

A message from Yang Mi: The TV series 'palace jade' starring me will be broadcast tonight at 8 PM on Hunan TV, and the song 'the supply of love' will be released simultaneously. Remember to watch it (heart.jpg).

Chen Shaoping: Okay, I'll definitely watch it.

After finishing his noodles and tidying up the kitchen, it was almost eight o'clock.

Since he had promised, he naturally had to watch it carefully.

Forty-five minutes of the TV series made Chen Shaoping frown.

This episode mainly told the story of Luo Qing, a modern girl obsessed with history, eager to research and uncover the secret history of the Qing palace.

The plot involved her time-traveling to the Kangxi era of the Qing Dynasty, meeting the Fourth Prince, encountering the Crown Prince's secret affair, befriending the Eighth Prince, and entering the palace as a maid.

If it weren't to hear 'the supply of love,' Chen Shaoping truly couldn't have watched it.

The plot was too awkward; the screenwriter treated the audience like fools.

However, Da Mimi was still excellent; not only beautiful, but her acting was also on point.

The song started, and Yang Mi's voice came from the TV.

"Holding you in my hands, I devoutly burn incense,

Cutting a segment of candlelight to illuminate the scriptures.

I don't seek a grand romance, only a love affair,

Loving until the end, I was hurt, crying so desperately.

...

There are too many worries in the human world to forget,

Floating in the sea of suffering, your old appearance.

Turning back, I realized I had long stepped out of the mortal world."

After listening to the song, one has to admit.

Yang Mi's singing ability, compared to her acting ability, was not just a little bit worse.

Her performance had obvious shortcomings in breath control, pitch, and resonance. The audio engineer probably had a tough time.

However, one particularly successful aspect was the perfect fit of the lyrics with the plot, greatly enhancing the audience's immersion.

The melody was catchy, and the chorus was easy to sing along to, making it easy for people to hum.

Her voice carried a unique 'girlishness' and a slightly nasal quality, appearing sincere and unpretentious.

This added a lot of points for her.

Overall, the song made the drama, and the drama gave feedback to the song—a win-win.

In Yang Mi's office at Jiaxing Media, there were many men and women.

"After two episodes aired, what's the viewership rating feedback from the TV station?" Yang Mi asked.

Chen Yi, the business department manager, happily replied, "General Manager Yang, Hunan TV said the peak viewership rate reached 1.89, and the lowest was 1.2. It's considered a minor hit, and subsequent broadcasts will definitely be higher."

Yang Mi sat in her chair, nodding with satisfaction.

"What about the netizens' comments?"

The female assistant quickly stepped forward to report, "Sister Mi, the most discussed topic among netizens is actually the song. Everyone is praising your singing, saying it's heartfelt."

"Many fans are also thanking Young Master Ping, thanking him for writing such a good song for you."

"The click-through rate on General Music Network has already exceeded 300,000. Many songs by first-tier singers don't break 3 million this quickly."

Yang Mi smiled brightly, "These netizens are so cute! Haha... haha!"

She was secretly glad now that she had spent 4 million to buy this song.

From the current situation, she would earn a lot, a lot from this song.

Thinking of this, she picked up her phone and sent a message to Chen Shaoping.

"Thank you for the song. I'll treat you to dinner another day."

Soon, a message came back.

Chen Shaoping: "You're welcome, you paid for it. Which day is 'another day'?"

Yang Mi looked at her phone and laughed, not replying further.

Chen Shaoping, lying in bed waiting for Yang Mi's reply, never received one and slowly fell asleep instead.

Midnight.

Chen Shaoping woke up reflexively.

[Ding! Today's intelligence has been refreshed. Host, do you wish to retrieve it immediately?]

"Yes, retrieve it immediately."

[Today's Intelligence 1 (★★★): To curb the trend of plagiarism and imitation in the music industry, Long Country CCTV will launch an original music variety show, 'the singer & songwriter,' presented in a 'semi-live' format.

There are 6 groups of contestants, each consisting of a singer, a composer, and a lyricist forming a team.

They will create and perform within a time limit based on themes given by judges and the audience. The top three winners of each episode will receive 2 million, 5 million, and 1 million yuan respectively, to encourage the development of original music.

The number of episodes will be adjusted based on broadcast results, aiming to revitalize original music in Long Country.

Currently, four groups of contestants have been confirmed. The program's general Director, Cai Guoqiang, lives at Lingnan Mansion, Building 11, Unit 51. Phone: 159... (Note: Cai Guoqiang is obsessed with ancient poetry)]

[Today's Intelligence 2 (★★★): Second-generation star Li Tianyi and his five accomplices drank at Rehua Bar on Shenqi South Road tonight at 22:18. At 23:28, they took a drunk woman to room 808 of Hongyi Hotel to commit gang rape.]

Both pieces of intelligence were three-star. The first made Chen Shaoping happy, the second made him frown.

The simplest way to deal with the second piece of intelligence was to have Tian Jun scare Li Tianyi and his group and rescue the drunk woman.

But in that case, these beast-like second-generation stars would face no consequences, not even being taken to the police station.

How could he ensure the drunk woman was unharmed, and Li Tianyi and his group received their deserved punishment?

Chen Shaoping tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time, and couldn't think of a good solution.

It wasn't until past four in the morning, when he was truly too tired, that he slowly drifted off to sleep.
