"Damn, what kind of talk is that? Am I, Old Tian, the stingy type?"
Twenty minutes later, Tian Yingxiong arrived at the company.
He was holding a large pile of gifts, all high-end tonics like ginseng and velvet antler, plus various high-end fruits. It looked like it cost a thousand or two.
Lin Chudong immediately said when he saw this.
"Don't come in, get out of here quickly. These gifts are too much, I can't accept them."
Tian Yingxiong said, "Stop your nonsense, I've already brought them. There's no way I'm taking them back. Boss Liang, come and take the stuff!"
Liang Yin said, "Coming."
After directing Wang Zhi and Guo Xiaoliang to bring the things in, Lin Chudong shook his head helplessly.
This dog sent so many gifts; he must have something to ask. Bringing him in was like inviting a wolf into the house!
Tian Yingxiong said, "What's the matter, Lin? Are you still being polite with me?"
Lin Chudong sneered, "I'm not being polite. I'll thank you for the gifts, but if you want me to do something for you, I'm sorry, I'm still not well."
"..."
Tian Yingxiong said, "You look cold-hearted, just like me when I was young."
"I'll get straight to the point. Write me a song. We're brothers, and you write a hit song every time, but you won't write one for me? Don't forget I helped you with the music festival!"
Lin Chudong rolled his eyes. He was really soft-hearted after eating someone's food and taking their stuff.
Liang Yin and the others finally understood. So, Tian Yingxiong had been giving out all those supplements and food because he wanted a song. Da Fei really had experience; she hadn't even guessed that.
Lin Chudong said, "Write a song for you? Why wouldn't I sing it myself?"
Tian Yingxiong had a decent voice, but they were all men. If there were good songs, Lin Chudong would keep them for himself.
Tian Yingxiong said, "Cut the crap. You know me. I'm focused on rapping. Give me a male-female duet; I'm not kidding."
Lin Chudong frowned slightly. "Male-female duet? Did you get a girlfriend?"
Tian Yingxiong said, "Not yet. I brought a young girl into the industry; she has a great voice."
Lin Chudong clicked his tongue twice. "You beast, preying on an innocent girl."
"Bullshit. You're still fooling Lin Qiqi."
"Give back the money that Qiqi donated to you!"
"..."
After they bickered for a while, Lin Chudong said, "Show me the video of the girl singing."
Tian Yingxiong had been ready for this, just waiting for Lin Chudong to agree to write her a song.
He took out his phone and handed him the video.
"Godfather, please take a look!"
In the video, a pure and beautiful girl was singing at the top of her lungs. The girl was riding a horse, and her voice was bold and unrestrained, with a strong ethnic flavor.
Lin Chudong directly turned it off and said.
"No problem with writing songs, but we need to be clear about the business. I charge the same price for everyone. I can't give you a discount just because you're my brother."
Tian Yingxiong said, "I understand. You don't have to give me a discount. Just write a good song. I'm not short on money, bro."
Lin Chudong said, "I'm relieved to hear that. I won't be greedy. Two million a song, paid in full upfront. Is that okay?"
Tian Yingxiong: ...
"I take back what I just said. I am short on money."
Lin Chudong laughed, "Don't be so stingy. I just wrote a song for Zhang Yiran, and it was the same price."
"Huh? You wrote a song for Zhang Yiran? Did she take it?"
"Of course! Can she refuse when I, Da Fei, steps in? Don't you see the internet saying I'm a musical genius? You're the same price as Zhang Yiran. She's a queen, and you'll be the next king."
Tian Yingxiong nodded. "In that case, two million doesn't seem that expensive."
Wang Zhi was sweating bullets watching Lin Chudong try to swindle someone.
Zhang Yiran wasn't even paying attention to them!
Fly-ge could earn two million just by talking?
Tian Yingxiong said, "Let me hear the song first. If it's good, I'll ask my uncle for the money."
Tian Yingxiong could afford two million. If he didn't have enough himself, he had an uncle who ran a film company. It all depended on the song's quality.
Lin Chudong said, "Alright, let's get to work."
Lin Chudong quickly prepared a score and printed it out for everyone, then they went to the rehearsal room.
"Come on, brothers, let's show Boss Tian what we've got."
"Alright!"
Tian Yingxiong sat down in a chair to listen to the demo Lin Chudong had prepared for him.
It was just a demo, but the score was already quite mature. Even the complete arrangement was pretty much the same as what he was singing now.
"The vast horizon is my love, Flowers are blooming at the foot of the mountains, What kind of rhythm is the most swaying? What kind of singing is the most joyful?"
After singing a verse, Lin Chudong immediately launched into a small part of the chorus.
"You are the most beautiful cloud on my horizon, Let me keep you with my heart.
Singing the most dazzling ethnic style,
Let love sweep away all the dust..."
Tian Yingxiong's eyes were shining. This song was a bit catchy. Although there were only two parts, a verse and a chorus, the catchy rhythm made him want to sway along.
Lin Chudong handed a portion of the lyrics to Tian Yingxiong.
"The girls go three keys higher directly, and your lyrics are in parentheses."
Tian Yingxiong took a look, then stared blankly.
"I only sing 'Stay'?"
Lin Chudong said, "You can't say that. You can sing the harmony part. The girls sing the high notes, and you sing the low notes, an octave lower."
Tian Yingxiong frowned, "Will this work? Won't she steal all the limelight?"
Lin Chudong said, "You idiot, you can form a group with her. You have fewer lyrics and still get half the money, isn't that good?"
Tian Yingxiong was stunned, "That's also a way…"
After all, rap isn't mainstream. Although his rap was awesome, it was too niche.
This song is definitely a crowd-pleaser, very popular, with the potential to go viral!
Tian Yingxiong said, "Okay, two million for this song. The arrangement also has to be done by you, and you have to sign three songs with me at once. I'll pay you for one song, and I'll pay you for the other two after you write them."
Lin Chudong nodded, "No problem."
He definitely wouldn't sing Phoenix Legend's songs. It's better to sell them for a good price, and it's to his brother, which is also a good thing.
It's just that Tian Yingxiong isn't very happy to take out two million now. If he wants to get another two million from him, he probably has to let him get popular for a while, be on variety shows, and so on.
Tian Yingxiong took out his phone and called Wang Danian.
"Uncle, lend me some money. I'll pay you back later."
Wang Danian asked, "How much?"
"Two million, I'm buying a song."
Wang Danian said, "That's expensive! You should really think about it. What level of lyrics and music is worth two million to you?"
Tian Yingxiong said, "I'll tell you later. I'll give you an account, just transfer the money!"
After hanging up the phone, Wang Danian was speechless. This nephew was usually stingy, but this time he was willing to spend two million to buy a song. He must have found something he really liked. As his uncle, he had to support him.
He told the finance department to transfer the money, and soon the finance department called back.
"President Wang, this account belongs to the Liang Music Team."
Wang Danian was stunned. "The Liang Music Team? Da Fei and the others?"
"Yes."
Wang Danian's expression was a bit strange. Back when Lin Chudong came to him asking for investment, he didn't even want to give him fifty thousand.
But now, he'd wired over two million, and didn't even get a share. This Da Fei, he's got some tricks.
