Chapter 101 Sweet Song Queen Yang Yuying
Chapter 101 Sweet Song Queen Yang Yuying
The next day.
Zhou Xiaobai and Tong Liya chatted idly in the space, while Fan Bingbing drove Liu Qianqian at breakneck speed.
This car is really cool. I heard it's an imported one and it's just finished its break-in period.
Zhou Wenqiong used to be timid and drove slowly. Now that Fan Bingbing is in charge, she doesn't care about anything else.
Besides, the area is sparsely populated, and there's a system in place to ensure safety.
The car turned onto Highway 312, urged on by Liu Qianqian, the little tyrant, and driven by Fan Bingbing, the domineering man.
Now that the two "dominants" have joined forces, they're practically taking off.
"Ahhh—I want to fly, fly higher—!" Liu Qianqian, standing on the platform, spread her arms and shouted into the wind.
"Qianqian, stop shaking it!" Fan Bingbing quickly stopped the car. She had had her fill of the thrill, but Liu Qianqian's reckless behavior still frightened her.
"Sister, you're such a coward." Liu Qianqian turned around, her face full of disdain.
That's infuriating.
Fan Bingbing took off her helmet and pinched her cheek: "Now I know why your little brother always gets beaten up by Da Meili because of you."
In the past, when Zhou Xiaobai complained, he mostly talked about how Da Meili bullied him. Later, he mainly complained about Liu Qianqian's daily antics.
She wasn't entirely convinced at first, but now she's experienced it for herself.
"That's because my brother is useless; he always gets bullied by those two women."
At this point, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't called her mother yet, and wondered if her great-aunt had seen the note.
She took out her phone, but there was no signal.
Her body trembled involuntarily, and a vague unease rose in her heart.
At this moment, Guangzhou...
At five o'clock in the morning, Da Meili led a group of girls off the train.
To extend the timeline, Liu Qianqian was somewhat conscientious and had Chen Minghua book sleeper berths. She did book plane tickets for trips from Guangzhou to other places.
Although Chen Minghua didn't understand, he had no choice but to comply, giving Da Meili the reason that the tickets for that day were sold out.
Everyone slept relatively peacefully throughout the journey.
As soon as I got off the train, I was picked up by people from Era Records and taken to the company's guesthouse.
The press conference was scheduled for 2 p.m., but Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong wanted to learn about the process in advance.
After washing up, without even taking a break, he hurriedly led the girls to the headquarters of Times Records.
Era Records was an audio-visual publishing house under the supervision of the Guangdong Provincial Bureau of Culture and sponsored by the Publicity Department, and it was at its peak at this time.
The company's business covers the production, processing, publishing, distribution, and rental of audio-visual and film and television works, as well as the organization of various conferences and performing arts activities.
Today, Chen Minghua, who arrived early, was dressed in a suit and tie and was waiting at the gate.
Also present to greet them were Yang Yuying, a leading singer of the era, and Mr. Wang, the company's general manager.
Although singing and dancing are inseparable, and Liu Xiaoli has won major awards, dancing is ultimately just a supporting role.
Zhou Wenqiong is only slightly famous in the film and television industry.
But the popularity of Liu Yifei's album is just around the corner.
As the parents of Liu Qianqian and Zhou Xiaobai, if we underestimate Zhou Wenqiong and Liu Xiaoli, those two little ones might really flip the table.
This is absolutely true; these were Zhou Xiaobai's exact words to Chen Minghua in private.
Chen Minghua naturally understood.
Furthermore, this children's song album will help him rise to great heights.
With the album and subsequent music videos, the Jiangcheng branch is expected to earn nearly 30 million yuan. If all goes well, his promotion to vice president is almost a certainty during next year's head office reshuffle.
Therefore, this press conference is of utmost importance.
Although Liu Qianqian and Zhou Xiaobai could not attend, the presence of their elders was a compromise.
At 8:00 a.m., two black Previa cars slowly drove up to the company gate and stopped.
Chen Minghua, Yang Yuying, and others immediately went to greet them—Da Meili, dressed in a gorgeous outfit, stepped out of the car.
Liu Xiaoli wore a white long dress, the shoulder-length collar accentuating her long, swan-like neck, with gold embroidery subtly shimmering on the hem. She needed no words; her quiet presence exuded nobility, her aura a silent coronation.
Zhou Wenqiong, on the other hand, was a far cry from her usual dashing self. She wore a black, gold-embroidered long cheongsam, her long hair pulled back, and two jade earrings dangling from her ears. Despite her simple attire, her eyes were bright and clear, her gait composed, and she exuded a commanding and elegant beauty.
The girls who got off the bus afterward were all stunningly beautiful.
This sight left the entire staff of Era Records stunned.
Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong were also somewhat surprised—they did not expect such a grand welcome, with not only Chen Minghua but also the company's CEO personally attending.
But what surprised the two of them the most was Yang Yuying, who had a petite figure, fair skin, and a pure and sweet face, as if she had stepped out of a comic book.
Upon seeing Yang Yuying, Liu Xiaoli and the others couldn't help but admire her from the bottom of their hearts. Her beauty was pure and clear, and with her status as the "Queen of Sweet Songs," she carried the memories of an era and became synonymous with "love songs" in the Chinese music scene.
"Ms. Liu and Ms. Zhou, welcome to our visit." Mr. Wang took the initiative to greet them. No introduction was needed; the two women's faces were their own calling cards.
"Good morning, Mr. Wang," Zhou Wenqiong greeted. Having worked at the Pearl River Film Studio in Guangzhou for many years, the two organizations had frequent interactions, so it was not surprising that they knew each other.
After the introductions, Liu Xiaoli turned to Yang Yuying, gently took her hand, and smiled dignifiedly: "Yuying, seeing is believing! You've finally shown me what true beauty is."
"Hello, Teacher Liu! I've heard so much about you, and now we're finally meeting in person." Yang Yuying gave her two dimples in return.
She paused, looking puzzled, "Where are your two little ones?"
She was curious about Zhou Xiaobai and Liu Qianqian, but she was more focused on Zhou Xiaobai.
Through her research, she learned that the director of the album "Liu Yifei" was Wang Shuzhen from the orphanage, and Liu Qianqian was also credited as the lyricist for some of the songs, but the real soul of the album was Zhou Xiaobai.
As one of the top pop singers in China, she could tell the value of Liu Yifei's album at a glance, which is why she had the idea of commissioning songs from it.
Two months ago, the song Li Jun played for her made her exclaim that it was divine.
The song title is "I Will Be Fine," and it's a song that "sings the most resilient growth with the sweetest voice," which seems tailor-made for her.
She couldn't understand how this child could write about love and romance. How could someone have such insights without experiencing heartbreak?
Li Jun was also surprised when he first saw the song, but Zhou Xiaobai's answer was very direct: Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've still seen pigs run, right? There are plenty of love songs out there, so do songwriters have to experience things firsthand before they can write them?
Li Jun's message left Yang Yuying speechless, but what made her happiest was that Zhou Xiaobai said he was her fan, which made her both happy and surprised.
What's gratifying is that Zhou Xiaobai only wrote songs for her, saying it was a way of repaying his fans.
Surprisingly—we're singing love songs! They attract all heroes, not a little kid like you?
The absence of Zhou Xiaobai and Liu Qianqian today made her curious: You didn't even attend the press conference, are you acting like a big shot?
She didn't understand the intricacies of the situation, and besides, it seemed that all the secrets could be revealed today.
That's why I asked this question.
Her question stunned Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong, who involuntarily looked at Yang Yuying with puzzled expressions.
