183: The recording studio owner was completely fooled! The sound engineer was dumbfounded: Dude, you want to record too?

"Two people?"

"That's right. We're renting the studio for half a day to record two songs. If that's not enough, we'll add more time later!"

Xu Lu nodded and replied to the Recording Studio Owner.

Because they were filming this time at Qianxiang Film and Television City, this was not the same recording studio they went to last time.

After hearing Xu Lu's words, the Recording Studio Owner first handed over a sign, then looked at him a few more times, and suddenly asked:

"Handsome, has anyone ever told you that you look like a Celebrity?"

"Yes, many people say I have a strong Celebrity look. I've been wondering if I should just find a chance to debut. With my looks, becoming a Celebrity probably won't be a problem!"

Xu Lu replied earnestly.

Hearing this, the Recording Studio Owner immediately lost his desire to gossip.

He had thought a Celebrity had come to his studio and was considering taking a photo with them and asking for an autograph to boost the studio's reputation.

But upon hearing the young man's words, he no longer believed he was a Celebrity, and naturally, he gave up the idea of taking a photo with him.

Just an ordinary person. What if he's handsome?

There's absolutely no value in taking a commemorative photo!

Meanwhile, Xu Lu, who was leading Zhang Yingying inside, let out a sigh of relief, thinking:

"Thank goodness I strictly dissuaded those guys from following along before we came, otherwise we would have been exposed by now.

It looks like being a Celebrity has its own troubles: being easily recognized and having no privacy."

That's right! When they heard he was bringing the company's first music artist to record a song.

The group of actresses, including Reba, Yang Mi, and Liu Yifei, all clamored to come along and join the fun.

But Xu Lu immediately 'sternly refused' them.

He also specifically instructed Old Zhou to film these guys' scenes first, so they wouldn't have the time to join the excitement.

It was also fortunate that those beautiful girls didn't follow them, otherwise, even if the boss was blind, he would have recognized several Celebrities among them.

And without Reba, Yang Mi, Liu Yifei, and the others following him.

Although Xu Lu had played 'summer fall' in 'summers melancholy,' which was explosively popular across the entire network, his real-life appearance was different from his movie role.

Furthermore, Zhang Yingying was still an ordinary person, which greatly reduced the chance of them being recognized.

Sure enough, although the Recording Studio Owner had been a little suspicious earlier.

But after Xu Lu fooled him, the other party was instantly 'crippled' and no longer suspected Xu Lu of being a Celebrity.

Pfft!

Zhang Yingying, who was beside him, finally couldn't hold back her laughter once they were alone, saying:

"Director Xu, does that boss have poor eyesight? How did he suddenly lose confidence just because of what you said?"

"This shouldn't be a matter of good eyesight; maybe it's because I'm not famous enough, haha!"

Xu Lu smiled and said:

"Besides, that boss is a middle-aged uncle. Do you think he pays much attention to male Actors?"

"If a female Celebrity came here today, I bet he'd recognize her instantly."

"That's true!" Zhang Yingying nodded.

Xu Lu suddenly spoke again:

"No need to be envious. Once the song I prepared for you is recorded and released, you'll be a big singer too!"

"Next time you come here to record a song, that boss will definitely ask to take a commemorative photo with you and request an autograph."

Hearing this, Zhang Yingying looked expectant but also a little unsure, saying:

"Director Xu, I still don't know what song you want me to sing!"

Hearing this, Xu Lu quickly took out a document from his backpack, handed it to her, and said:

"Uh... I forgot about that. Here, this is the song you're singing today, titled 'peerless under heaven.'

This song was practically written for your high notes. Once it becomes popular, your Dolphin Tone will become famous."

"peerless under heaven?"

Just having received the lyrics and music sheet, Zhang Yingying was still skeptical.

But after she looked over the score and silently sang it once, her eyes instantly lit up.

If she had dismissed Xu Lu's earlier comment about her quickly becoming popular as mere polite talk.

Now, she suddenly felt that after singing this song, she might genuinely become famous!

Thinking this, Zhang Yingying repeatedly expressed her gratitude:

"Director Xu, did you write this song? It's really wonderful! I feel like it was tailor-made for me!

Please rest assured, I will sing it well and definitely won't waste such a great song. The melody is truly beautiful."

"Mhm, just sing it well and try your best to utilize your strengths!"

Xu Lu nodded.

Soon, the two arrived at the recording room marked on the sign, where a Recording Engineer was waiting inside.

Seeing the two people walk in, the Recording Engineer was unfazed and began the preparation work in a routine manner.

However, since Zhang Yingying was only doing a test performance to start, they didn't need to record yet.

After finishing the preparations, the Recording Engineer told them to call him when they were ready for the official recording, and then he started playing on his phone by himself.

But just a few seconds later, the Recording Engineer instantly looked up, staring at Zhang Yingying with a surprised expression.

Because at that moment, Zhang Yingying had started singing, and at first, there were no lyrics, just a series of "ah's."

Yet her pitch was extremely high, like water suddenly bursting from a silver vase, shocking the heart.

"Where did this woman come from? Why is her voice so high? And what song is she singing?"

The Recording Engineer had quietly put away his phone, his expression full of confusion.

Because even though Zhang Yingying had reached the lyrical part, the Recording Engineer still couldn't tell what song it was.

And yet the melody of the song was extremely pleasant, and the song itself was quite perfect.

"Bro, is this a new song you wrote yourselves? I've never heard it before!"

It was only then that the Recording Engineer quietly came up next to Xu Lu and suddenly asked in a low voice.

Xu Lu nodded and said seriously:

"That's right! It's a new song that was just written not long ago. Do you think this girl can debut and become famous with this song?"

"I think so!"

Unexpectedly, the Recording Engineer nodded seriously, then added:

"This girl's voice is truly unique. Combined with such a good song, there's no problem with her becoming popular."

Leaving the two people chatting aside.

Zhang Yingying, who was doing the test performance, was a bit rusty during the first few takes and occasionally made mistakes.

But later on, her performance clearly improved, and both her breath control and technique were excellent.

At this point, the Recording Engineer stopped chatting with Xu Lu and proactively went to start the official recording.

One take, two takes, three takes... "Alright, alright, there are no issues! I'll get to work now. This new song will be officially released soon!"

The Recording Engineer was clearly excited to witness the birth of a good song.

However, just then, Xu Lu suddenly said:

"Hey, bro, don't rush. We haven't finished recording yet. You can process everything together once we're done."

"Another song? Fine!" Although the Recording Engineer looked surprised upon hearing this, he still nodded.

However, when he saw Xu Lu putting on the recording headphones while Zhang Yingying went to rest on the side, the Recording Engineer was dumbfounded:

"Bro, are you recording a song too?"
