Watching the two newly updated chapters successfully published, the system's prestige value began to steadily increase again.
Encouraged by this, Su Yu's drive became even more abundant when he was typing.
Time passed quietly in Su Yu's regular typing rhythm.
It wasn't until Tuesday, July 10th, that Su Yu received another message from Han Jiangxue.
In these past few days, Han Jiangxue had been fully dedicated to practicing her singing skills, aiming to prevent “the wind rises” from being buried in her hands.
And the 10th was the day of the third episode's kick-off challenge recording for “The King of Singers”.
Han Jiangxue, who had been incredibly busy these past few days, finally found time to send Su Yu a message after the recording ended.
In fact, Su Yu had been very proactive in contacting Han Jiangxue these past few days, but unfortunately, they had to quickly end their conversations after only a few sentences each time.
Good Person Senior Sister: “The recording is over, so tired.”
Su Yu replied almost instantly: “Senior Sister must be exhausted these past few days, so hurry back and rest!”
Han Jiangxue almost laughed in anger when she saw Su Yu's reply.
Doesn't this kid always care about her competition results? Why is it that now the recording is over, he doesn't ask? Is he pretending to care?
Good Person Senior Sister: “Are you sure you're not going to ask about my results from the kick-off challenge?”
Su Yu responded: “Senior Sister, in this round, being in the top three is absolutely no problem; I have complete confidence in you, Senior Sister! If Senior Sister wants to reveal some spoilers in advance, I'm fine with that too!”
However, Su Yu did not receive a text reply from Han Jiangxue, but instead, he received a voice call from her.
As soon as it connected, Han Jiangxue's mature and commanding voice came through: “The production team has a non-disclosure agreement, but I can tell you that I successfully kicked off! As for the specific ranking, you can watch it yourself when it airs on the 20th, Junior Brother.”
Su Yu raised an eyebrow slightly, feeling that Han Jiangxue was deliberately teasing him.
However, through their interactions during this period, he and Han Jiangxue had indeed become much more casual in their conversations, and their relationship was more like that of true friends.
“Alright then, I'll definitely tune in on time! By the way, Senior Sister didn't promise to treat me to a meal after successfully kicking off, did she? Does that still count?” Su Yu seized the opportunity.
Actually, he hadn't seen Han Jiangxue for several days and truly missed the first person he met after coming to Lanxing.
“Tomorrow afternoon, I'll pick you up! Oh, right, recently, some singers or entertainment companies might contact you, asking you for songs, or even bringing up signing you again! It's really because “the wind rises” has once again shocked them. Just now, several singers asked me for your contact information, and out of politeness, I gave it to them. You won't blame me, will you?”
Han Jiangxue's last sentence was spoken with a hint of caution.
Because she was genuinely worried that Su Yu wouldn't like it, after all, she felt that Su Yu wanted to live a peaceful and comfortable life and didn't want to get involved in the complicated quagmire of the entertainment industry.
Would Su Yu blame Han Jiangxue? Of course not! He was grateful enough as it was!
Because Han Jiangxue was now his living signboard and living advertisement for his songwriting ability!
He would have more and more songs in his hands in the future, but these songs would not necessarily all be suitable for Han Jiangxue, and sooner or later, they would have to be sold to other singers.
And his entertainment prestige value would also change from Han Jiangxue's solo brilliance to blooming everywhere, which was the fastest and correct way to gain prestige value.
“I've already written two songs for Senior Sister. If Senior Sister said she wasn't familiar with me, they wouldn't believe it, right? Just give it to them. It's not like I have to agree to write songs for them, right? Senior Sister, don't blame yourself. As for signing, there's even less to say; I won't easily join an entertainment company before graduation.”
Su Yu's words made Han Jiangxue feel a little better about herself, and after they chatted for a few more sentences, Sister Ling's voice urging them to check their tickets came, and this call ended.
Not long after the voice call ended, two friend requests popped up on his chat software.
One was Xie Jie, and the other was Hu Zhixuan.
These two were both initial singers in this season of “The King of Singers”, and Su Yu had paid attention to their singing skills when he watched the first episode.
Hu Zhixuan was definitely at the top level among first-tier singers, even comparable to Han Zhuoma and Sun Shu from the national team.
However, Xie Jie's singing skills, in Su Yu's opinion, could only be considered weak first-tier.
When the first round ended, Hu Zhixuan ranked third, and Xie Jie ranked fifth.
Xie Jie's ranking was clearly very precarious, but the fact that he could send a friend request at this time probably meant he hadn't been eliminated yet, right?
Su Yu accepted both friend requests, and then they started chatting. Sure enough, both of them were there to ask him for songs!
Actually, both of them didn't have high hopes for getting songs, after all, they were both insiders, and if they just inquired with their companies, they would know Su Yu's current situation.
Although the two songs Su Yu successively gave to Han Jiangxue were stunning, no one knew if they were Su Yu's previous stock.
And whether Su Yu, who was in poor physical condition, could continue to create and write songs for them was an unknown.
However, adding a friend and trying their luck had no impact.
Su Yu, on his side, politely declined Hu Zhixuan, as the songs he had were simply not suitable for Hu Zhixuan's voice.
However, with Xie Jie, Su Yu paid attention.
Su Yu: “Brother Jie, I have a folk song here, but I'm afraid it might not be very suitable for the “The King of Singers” competition. Are you still interested?”
Xie Jie really just wanted to try his luck, who would have thought that Su Yu actually had some stock! And it was clearly meant to be sold to him!
So, Xie Jie made a video call. Actually, Xie Jie also wanted to confirm Su Yu's physical condition by making a video call.
“My brother, you don't know, the song “the wind rises” that you wrote today completely stunned us! In the next episode, I believe no one will try to hit high notes anymore; everyone will probably start focusing on the quality and emotion of their works! Um, I'll go to Yan Music to find you tomorrow, and we can talk more when we meet?”
Xie Jie in the video had already removed his makeup and looked less handsome than the slightly sickly and thin Su Yu at the moment.
However, the meeting time proposed by the other party really put Su Yu in a difficult position; Han Jiangxue was going to treat him to dinner tomorrow.
But he didn't want to miss the opportunity to sell a song!
Han Jiangxue hadn't mentioned anything about the fourth-round song to him before, so it was clear that the Tianxing Music Department had prepared suitable competition songs for her.
This made Su Yu feel a bit anxious, while also feeling disappointed.
“Brother Jie, can we do tomorrow morning? I have something to go out for in the afternoon.” Su Yu looked at Xie Jie and said.
