The city competition is about to end.
After it concludes, he will earn the honor of the Music God. In the Chinese music scene, only four individuals can be mentioned in the same breath as him. Chen Shuhao's fame has been greatly diminished. While the market still acknowledges him as a Music God, he cannot compare to the other three.
This means he has reached the pinnacle among producers.
Initially, he planned to propose to Lin Yanyu after achieving the Music God title and then settle into a leisurely life. However, his father-in-law has now arranged for him to participate in "King of Masks."
This means he will be competing as a singer alongside a group of vocal kings.
It's not that he doesn't want to refuse; it's just that his father-in-law is offering too much...
Even without the shares in Star Brilliance, simply out of respect for his father-in-law, Su Yu would not refuse.
Lin Yanyu enjoys watching movies, and Su Yu also intends to dabble in the film industry.
Currently, bad movies are rampant, and every television series and film released is met with widespread criticism.
With so many excellent movies available through the system, it's only natural to give the people of Blue Star a taste of something better.
Furthermore, just like with "Chinese Paladin," there are quite a few songs that accompany these films.
"System, customize the 'Fearless' movie gift package and the 'Pegasus' movie gift package for me." Similar to the last time with "Chinese Paladin," movies can be customized into gift packages.
It's very cost-effective.
Each gift package includes the script, storyboards, and soundtracks, among other things. It's extremely comprehensive.
This means that with a gift package, a movie can be filmed even without a director.
And with such complete resources, it would be very easy for Su Yu to make a director famous.
As for actors.
The preferred choices are the veteran actors who are currently not in favor, as well as new talents with acting prowess.
These two categories of actors are very affordable in terms of salary.
This allows for the minimization of investment costs to the greatest extent.
More funds can then be allocated to post-production.
Most importantly, they cost less but deliver better results than those popular idol actors.
When he has the time, he'll have Star Brilliance scout for actors and then cultivate his own team.
This will save a lot of trouble when filming in the future.
Perhaps, he might even nurture a few movie kings and queens.
[Ding, successfully customized the "Fearless Film and Television Grand Gift Package" for the host, including the song "Fearless." The "Pegasus Film and Television Grand Gift Package" includes the song "The Road to Success."]
[Automatically placed in the system warehouse. Eighty million has been donated to the charity fund for the host.]
Customizing film and television dramas and songs together significantly reduces the price.
Originally, a single song cost thirty million, and the gift package only added ten million in customization fees.
Movies, as long as they have good reviews, are a very profitable industry.
Su Yu had already understood this point.
After completing these tasks, Su Yu began browsing Weibo.
The internet was still flooded with news about his song "Shui Long Yin."
After receiving official commendation, Su Yu's status and position among producers soared.
This was an honor that even the other Music Gods had not received.
While casually scrolling,
He discovered a Weibo post that had considerable traction.
It was also related to him.
The post was published by a blogger named "Liu Xinyan."
This Liu Xinyan was a student studying abroad.
The Weibo post was just an image.
The image featured many photos, likely profile pictures from a social media app.
"@[Listening to Rain], I don't know if you can see this, but we are a group of Chinese people who cannot return home due to our careers and studies. We love your ancient-style songs very much and thank you for bringing us a sense of home."
This Weibo post had already been forwarded a million times.
Due to its high popularity, it had been pushed to the homepage.
Su Yu curiously zoomed in on the image.
This blogger was likely the leader or organizer of the group.
In her picture were messages of encouragement from many people.
And the recipients of this encouragement were, naturally, Su Yu.
"Listening to Rain, I've been abroad for ten years. Although I really want to go back, I'm tied by circumstances. Thank you for the songs that have accompanied me through countless nights of homesickness."
"Thousands of miles away from home, all for a better future. When I was about to give up, I heard 'Blue and White Porcelain,' a song with Chinese characteristics, and I suddenly felt full of strength."
"Keep up the good work, Listening to Rain! There are still many overseas Chinese who love your songs. We wish you success in obtaining the title of Music God!"
"Due to work reasons, I was transferred overseas five years ago. During times of homesickness, your songs accompany me, and my loneliness is greatly reduced."
"Chinese influence is the coolest! This sentence is the name of my social media account!"
These were all expatriates.
Some were abroad for their studies, and others for their careers.
All of them were located overseas.
And Listening to Rain was currently the hottest producer in the country.
It was natural for them to know this.
Moreover, Listening to Rain's ancient-style songs had directly won over these homesick expatriates,
Making them fans of Listening to Rain.
Abroad, many of Listening to Rain's songs were quite popular, but those foreigners only listened to the music and did not follow the producers or singers.
Of course, this was also normal. Just like in China, when people listen to foreign songs, some can even hum a few lines, but most don't know who the singer is, let alone research the producer.
Many foreigners listened to his songs.
However, those who listened were just listening to the music itself.
This was his situation abroad.
Therefore, while the name Listening to Rain was very popular among overseas Chinese, it was still very unfamiliar to foreigners.
"Thank you all for your support."
Su Yu felt a bit touched seeing so many expatriates who had left messages for him. On Liu Xinyan's Weibo, he left his usual words of gratitude.
He felt it was wonderful that his songs could make these people feel a sense of home after listening.
After replying, he closed his phone.
"Susu, I'm all washed up. You should go take a shower. It's thundering tonight, and I'm a bit scared sleeping alone, so I want to sleep with you,"
Lin Yanyu walked up to Su Yu, wiping her wet hair with a towel.
Upon seeing the muscular lines on his body,
Slurp!
She unconsciously swallowed.
Susu's physique was just too good!
Why hadn't she noticed it before?
They had slept in the same bed several times, and she hadn't even touched him. She had lost out big time!
Thinking of this, Lin Yanyu's eyes sparkled.
"Hurry up and blow-dry your hair, or you'll catch a cold," Su Yu said, feeling a prickle on his scalp.
He then got up and walked towards the bathroom.
"Come quickly! I'll wait for you to blow-dry my hair," Lin Yanyu swallowed again and said softly to Su Yu.
"Oh, alright," Su Yu's voice came from the bathroom, followed by the sound of running water.
Lin Yanyu looked at the closed bathroom door and pouted.
Then, she turned and walked towards the bedroom.
If I were to rush into the bathroom now, would I get an even more complete view?
This thought crossed Lin Yanyu's mind.
Then her pretty face flushed, and she dismissed the absurd idea.
