Ding Sheng Entertainment.
Conference room.
Qi Shenghua sat in the main seat with a blank expression.
On both sides sat the executives of Ding Sheng Entertainment.
"President Qi, we lost completely this time. This kid is quite capable. The quality of that song 'Father' was surprisingly high, and he even snatched the first place from Li Jie."
Someone spoke, their tone full of unwillingness.
The engagement of ace producer Li Jie this time was supposed to be Ding Sheng Entertainment's first step to a comeback.
It was meant to challenge the dominance of Emperor Entertainment.
However, Ting Yu suddenly released a song called "Father," catching them completely off guard.
Moreover, the song resonated with countless people.
It climbed to the top of the new song charts for film and television at a staggering speed.
It completely crushed their company's ace producer.
"I know all this, no need to repeat it!" Da Feng Novel Network
Qi Shenghua frowned and said in a deep voice.
These clueless people, already upset, were now bringing up a sensitive topic.
The person immediately shrunk their head, not daring to speak.
At this moment.
Another person spoke, "President Qi, the vocal comparison and experts have been found. Shall we start by smearing him?"
During this period, they had been doing online pre-heating.
They had their traffic influencers lead the narrative.
Diverting people's attention online to Ting Yu's real identity.
Furthermore, they had released various rumors to make Ting Yu's identity more mysterious.
Now that the experts were briefed and the vocal comparisons were done, all that was needed was to release the information.
The matter of Ting Yu being Su Yu could immediately go viral.
Of course, if it were just these actions, it would only be beneficial for Ting Yu.
A teenage prodigy crushing an ace producer.
If this news spread, Ting Yu's fans would likely increase severalfold.
After all, in an era of formulaic songs, a lyricist and composer of such high quality, and a singer-songwriter with a divine vocal ability, was incredibly rare.
Ding Sheng Entertainment's intentions went beyond just this.
Their exposure of Ting Yu's identity was primarily to force him into the open, so they could then use their strengths and online trolls to smear him.
If they couldn't have it, they would destroy it; this was Ding Sheng Entertainment's consistent modus operandi.
Just like Chen Shuhao back then, who now obediently joined Ding Sheng Entertainment.
"Have you checked if Ting Yu has donated money?"
Qi Shenghua lightly tapped his fingers on the table, looking at the person speaking.
"We've checked. He hasn't donated. He's only been active for a few months since his debut. Although he's earned quite a bit of money during these months, we haven't found any donation records on the charity websites."
The person stated confidently.
Qi Shenghua nodded upon hearing this.
Then, he looked at the documents in his hand and fell silent.
The executives below also looked at him.
Awaiting his instructions.
Ting Yu's current income was enough to make many people online envious. If they used internet trolls to incite those who were envious of wealth at this time, it would be enough to ruin Ting Yu's reputation.
"Let's wait for now. I'll go ask Chen Shuhao about the progress of his new song!"
After a long pause, Qi Shenghua broke the silence.
With that, he directly announced the meeting's adjournment.
Then, he headed towards Chen Shuhao's office.
If Chen Shuhao was confident about dominating the charts this time, they could hold off on revealing Ting Yu's identity.
After all, it was a double-edged sword. If handled well, it could ruin Ting Yu; if handled poorly, it could deify Ting Yu.
He arrived at Chen Shuhao's office.
What was called an office was actually a professional recording studio.
It was specially built by the company for the "Song God."
The professional equipment inside was worth tens of millions.
At this moment, Chen Shuhao was auditioning his new song.
The person auditioning was Wu Rui, a top-tier female celebrity. She was fair-skinned, around thirty years old, possessing a youthful charm blended with the mature allure of a woman.
With her ethereal voice, she had over ten million fans in the ancient-style music circle.
There was a saying circulating online: "Wu Rui's voice was born for ancient-style music."
This showed her status in the ancient-style music scene.
"President Qi."
Chen Shuhao greeted Qi Shenghua upon his arrival.
"Is the new song ready?"
Qi Shenghua glanced at Wu Rui in the recording studio, surprised.
"It's ready. I've tried an ancient-style approach this time."
Chen Shuhao nodded lightly.
Upon hearing this, the gloom on Qi Shenghua's face instantly disappeared. He patted Chen Shuhao's shoulder and said cheerfully, "It seems our Song God is a bit unconvinced."
Having been in the industry for so many years, he understood Chen Shuhao's thoughts perfectly.
"I merely wish to spar with an excellent junior."
Chen Shuhao smiled, his eyes full of confidence.
He had just left Emperor Entertainment, and Emperor Entertainment showed no sentimentality, immediately signing the currently popular Ting Yu.
This move directly led netizens to believe that Emperor Entertainment had abandoned him, the Song God, and intended to replace him with Ting Yu.
Chen Shuhao's pride made him somewhat resentful.
Moreover, with the information provided by Qi Shenghua, he knew that Ting Yu was just a first-year university student in his teens, which made Chen Shuhao even more defiant.
No one could replace him!
Although some of the songs Ting Yu had written before were indeed impressive to him.
Deep down, he still believed that a kid in his teens couldn't possibly compare to him.
Therefore, for his comeback song, he decided to use the ancient-style genre that Ting Yu was most proud of.
Even though this wasn't his forte, how could a former chart-topping king be afraid of a brash young man in his teens?
"Good, your competitive spirit shows that you've come back to life. The king returns, let everyone see that the Song God cannot be challenged by anyone."
Qi Shenghua patted Chen Shuhao's shoulder, his eyes filled with relief.
He suddenly felt grateful to Ting Yu.
If not for Ting Yu, it would have taken Chen Shuhao much longer to regain his form.
This accidental provocation by Ting Yu had ignited Chen Shuhao's fighting spirit, which was something he hadn't anticipated.
"Don't worry, President Qi. The first place on the ancient-style new song charts this month belongs to me. And for my next song, I've decided to write a duet for Mian Mian. I believe with her Heavenly Queen influence, plus my first time singing as a vocalist, reaching the top of the hot song charts won't be a problem."
Chen Shuhao's fighting spirit had indeed been ignited.
His current song, challenging the charts with the ancient-style genre that Ting Yu was most skilled at, was a show of force. His next song would be the true return of the king.
The Song God paired with the Heavenly Queen, this was a true king's return.
"You want to be a singer?"
Qi Shenghua was stunned for a moment, then looked astonished.
Chen Shuhao had always been a producer and had never sung before.
But now, he suddenly wanted to debut as a singer and collaborate with Ruan Mianmian. This caught him off guard.
"Heh, my singing skills are not inferior to any first-tier singer."
Chen Shuhao nodded and smiled confidently.
"Haha! Good! Then I will eagerly await it!"
Qi Shenghua laughed heartily.
This was truly great news!
The debut of the Song God Chen Shuhao as a singer was explosive news.
Moreover, his collaborator was his girlfriend, the Heavenly Queen Ruan Mianmian!
Qi Shenghua felt that Ding Sheng Entertainment was about to take off!
