I was rejected when I wrote a song, but I became a king on my debut

Chapter 2 Is it a big star who buys songs?



When Wen Shiyi faced the criticism from her agent, Sister Lin, she knew that they were worried about her, and it was also her fault: "I'm sorry, Sister Lin, for making you worry."

Hearing Wen Shiyi's words, the sullenness in Wang Lin's heart disappeared, and then her tone softened: "You, I know you are in a bad mood recently, but you are an artist after all. You disappeared so suddenly, and you still ran away. After all, it’s not safe to come to places like bars.”

Wang Lin has been following Wen Shiyi for several years. She has been with Wen Shiyi since the first year of her debut. The two have a very good relationship. Otherwise, after Wen Shiyi terminated her contract with the original company, she would not have followed her to start a company and work alone.

But after they actually came out, they realized how difficult it was to start a company on their own. In addition, Wen Shiyi had retired for a year. In this fast-changing entertainment industry, her popularity has declined seriously and her resources are not as good as before. Moreover, the conflict between Wen Shiyi and her original company, Starlight Entertainment, was secretly causing obstacles at every turn, making it difficult for them to move forward.

For example, Wen Shiyi was preparing to make a comeback recently and wanted to release a new song, but she found many teachers, but no one agreed to help her write songs. They had finally negotiated a deal with a teacher two days ago, but they rushed there in person, but the teacher regretted it and gave the new song to Li Xue from Starlight Entertainment.

For this matter, they were extremely busy and called many teachers, but to no avail. As one of the four major entertainment companies in China, Starlight Entertainment has a lot of energy. Once it makes a statement, basically many teachers in the industry will no longer cooperate with Wen Shiyi.

Even now, Wen Shiyi can't even receive a notification.

In the past few days, Wen Shiyi often couldn't sleep well because of this matter, and she often even went out to drink alone to get drunk. I couldn't find anyone at home today, so Sister Lin came here to find Wen Shiyi at the bar she often went to.

"Shiyi, let's take it slow. I've contacted a teacher in Xiangjiang in the past few days. Let's fly over and have a look. No matter how great Starlight Entertainment is, I don't believe it can reach Xiangjiang."

Sister Lin comforted Wen Shiyi, and at the same time she scolded her former company, Starlight Entertainment, eight hundred times in her heart. Back then, the newly appointed boss fell in love with Wen Shiyi. If he failed to pursue her, he would use coercion and inducement. If Wen Shiyi refused, he would hide her for a year. Now that the contract has expired, they have come out to develop on their own, and they have also joined forces with other companies in the industry to ban Wen Shiyi.

Just like this, one of the four major companies, Sister Lin felt disgusted.

Even the assistant Xiaoqin who was driving in the front spoke to comfort her: "Yes, Sister Shiyi, don't be too sad. We will definitely succeed in our trip to Xiangjiang this time."

However, Wen Shiyi raised her head and said: "No need, Sister Lin, the new song matter has been resolved. You can prepare the contract later."

"Huh? What?"

Sister Lin thought she heard it wrong: "Shiyi, what did you say? Is your new song settled? Which teacher did you find to help you write it?"

Wen Shiyi handed the manuscript she took from Zhou Yu to Sister Lin: "Here, I just met a man selling songs over there. I thought this song was pretty good, so I bought it."

Sister Lin curiously took it and looked at it. The song was called "Period" and she looked at the author.

"Zhou Yu? Amateur?"

She had never heard of such a teacher in the circle. From the looks of it, she looked like an amateur, or even a new creator.

She looked at Wen Shiyi suspiciously and asked, "Shiyi, do you really think this song is okay?"

Wen Shiyi nodded: "Well, I think it's very similar to what I'm going through now, so I thought of giving it a try. Anyway, I can't find a teacher to help me write songs now, so I'm just trying to be a doctor."

There was a helpless smile on her beautiful face.

When Sister Lin heard what she said, she read the lyrics carefully and her eyes lit up. Not to mention, it was really similar to Wen Shiyi's current experience. Although there are no fancy words in the lyrics, they are simple and direct, and overall they look pretty good.

However, Wen Shiyi is back, and the new song to be released is so crucial and will determine her future development. Once the new song fails to be released this time and the results are not good, facing the blockade of Starlight Entertainment, subsequent development will be difficult.

"Okay, Shiyi, take this song first. I'll have someone prepare the contract. We'll go to Xiangjiang to visit the teacher first. If he can help you write the song, then we'll use his first."

Wen Shiyi knew what Sister Lin meant. She looked at the song "Period", hesitated for a moment, and nodded.

At Zhou Yu's house, he had already received the electronic contract from Wen Shiyi.

"Take a look. If there are no problems, just print it out, sign it, and mail it to my company."

"By the way, I will slightly change the lyrics of your song. Don't worry, I will only change a few words and it will not affect the original meaning."

Zhou Yu also knew that Wen Shiyi wanted to change the lyrics to be more in line with his own experience, and he had no objection.

"It's okay, just change it and show it to me."

Zhou Yu took a look at the contract sent by Wen Shiyi and the changed lyrics, and then changed the time from twelve years ago to four years ago, which was indeed more in line with her experience. As for the contract, she bought the song's singing rights, online communication rights, broadcast rights, distribution rights and commercial use priority. Others, if necessary, must be authorized again by Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu will get 1% of the revenue generated by the songs.

To be honest, Zhou Yu really didn't expect such conditions to be so good. He was a newbie, and he was the one who begged others to buy it, but the conditions were very good, and there was no intention of a shady company trying to exploit him.

This greatly increased his affection for Wen Shiyi.

"Okay, no problem, I'll send it to you tomorrow."

Come here when you see Wen Shiyifa’s address, Shiyin Entertainment?

"Wait? Why does her name sound so familiar?"

Looking at Wen Shiyi's name and the location of the company displayed, Zhou Yu felt like he had seen it somewhere.

He quickly went to look through Wen Shiyi's circle of friends. There were very few selfies, but there were some. Looking at the face that was so beautiful even without makeup, Zhou Yu quickly went to Weibo to search.

"I'll go! It's really her!"

Wen Shiyi is a first-line singer in China. Four years ago, when she debuted at the age of 22 and had just graduated from college, she made a splash. In just a few years, she flourished in the music scene and became a front-line star.

Four years since debut, three albums have been released, with cumulative sales exceeding seven million. In this digital age, it is really impressive that a physical album can have such sales, and she is also hailed as the future Chinese-language queen. But just when everyone thought she was going to hit the diva position with all her strength, she suddenly disappeared. When she appeared again, she announced two months ago that her contract with her original company, Starlight Entertainment, had expired and would not be renewed.

After that, she set up her own business and established her own company, Shiyin Entertainment. However, her one-year retreat caused a serious decline in her popularity and her resources were not as good as before.

Zhou Yu never expected that the person who bought his new song today would be the big star Wen Shiyi.

And looking at her like this, she seemed to be drunk in a bar.

"It seems that her situation is not good either."

Having been in the entertainment industry for so long in his previous life, Zhou Yu knew the rules of the industry very well. Wen Shiyi's sudden retirement when she was at her peak was definitely not her fault. In addition, she did not renew her contract with Starlight Entertainment, which means that there must be a conflict between her and Starlight Entertainment.

And now that she is setting up her own business, it will definitely be difficult for a woman and an artist who has offended one of the four major companies to develop in the industry.

"No wonder you buy my songs."

If he hadn't been forced to do so, Zhou Yu felt that with his identity as Wen Shiyi, he would never even look at his own song.

"But he's a nice person."

From the contract she signed for him, Zhou Yu could tell that this person was quite good.

But when he thought that so many of his classic songs had not been sold, and one of Deng Ziqi's songs today only sold for 20,000 yuan, Zhou Yu felt a little bit at a disadvantage.

"No, you have to do it yourself."

He can no longer throw so many classic songs into his own hands. Since others don’t want them, he will debut with new songs and sing them himself. Even if it really doesn't work, he will die clearly.
