631: Chapter 627 Spending Money to Clear the Way 631: Chapter 627 Spending Money to Clear the Way On the drive to Yan Yusong’s place, Ye Fan couldn’t help but think of Shen Yan.
Ever since the last ti he went to Nahua Records with Shen Yan to record “She Said,” Ye Fan hadn’t seen Shen Yan for quite so ti.
And because of work reasons, Shen Yan wasn’t in Hua Hai City either, she was touring the country, and had recently even gone abroad to hold a solo concert at the Vienna Music Theater, the global capital of music.
Of course, Ye Fan and Shen Yan hadn’t lost touch; they chatted on the phone from ti to ti.
Suddenly, Ye Fan missed Shen Yan a little.
So, he took out his phone and called Shen Yan while driving.
Shen Yan was quite happy to receive Ye Fan’s call and started chatting energetically with him.
“I’ll be returning to the country after New Year’s, and my first stop is Hua Hai City,” Shen Yan said with a laugh on the phone.
Ye Fan laughed and said, “That’s great.
Rember to give a call when you’re here, and we can go out to eat or sothing.”
Shen Yan agreed with a laugh.
Finally arriving at Yan Yusong’s ho and handing the gifts he had bought to Yan Yusong’s wife, Ye Fan sat down in the ground floor hall to chat with Yan Yusong, with Zeng Jingwei also present.
Yan Yusong was very pleased with Ye Fan’s visit.
“Ye Fan, I was just thinking about you,” Yan Yusong said.
Ye Fan smiled and asked, “Looking for ?
What’s up?”
“So ti ago, the director of ‘China’s Good Voice’ approached , asking to invite you to participate in ‘China’s Good Voice,'” said Yan Yusong.
Although Ye Fan’s other identity, Prisoner Two, was mysterious in everyone’s eyes, it was common knowledge that Prisoner Two was closely associated with Shen Yan.
Shen Yan was the hottest music diva and was currently holding a solo concert abroad.
As it wasn’t easy for the “China’s Good Voice” director to approach Shen Yan, they reached out to her ntor, Yan Yusong, hoping to find Prisoner Two through him.
In addition to self-registered contestants, “China’s Good Voice” featured many participants who were personally invited by the production team.
As this year’s hottest new star in the music scene, and always seen with a mask, adding an air of mystery and buzz, the “China’s Good Voice” team certainly had a great desire for Prisoner Two to join.
“Professor Yan, I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you, I won’t be participating in ‘China’s Good Voice,'” Ye Fan said with a smile, declining.
Yan Yusong said, “Ye Fan, don’t be too hasty in refusing.
‘China’s Good Voice’ has offered a lot of benefits: one, they guarantee to get you into the top four; two, a fee of five million; three, you don’t need to go through extensive centralized rehearsals like the other contestants, you just need to show up and sing.
That ans you only need to sing six or seven songs.
And, you don’t need to take off your mask.”
Ye Fan still shook his head and said, “Professor Yan, it’s impossible for to participate.
However, I would like you to recomnd Jingwei to ‘China’s Good Voice’ and let her join.”
“Jingwei?” Yan Yusong was surprised upon hearing this and turned to look at Zeng Jingwei.
Zeng Jingwei said, “Teacher, I want to participate in this season of ‘China’s Good Voice.’ Please help .”
Yan Yusong furrowed his brows; Zeng Jingwei was his direct disciple, and since she beca his student, he had devoted a lot of effort to nurturing her.
“It’s too soon,” he turned back to Ye Fan and said, “It’ll ruin Jingwei.”
Ye Fan said, “Zhang Ailing once said, fa should co early.
Jingwei is not young anymore; she’s almost twenty years old next year, which is not so young in the music industry.”
“But she’s only been studying music seriously for half a year,” Yan Yusong still disagreed.
Ye Fan said, “I’m not asking Jingwei to debut imdiately.
After taking part in ‘China’s Good Voice,’ she’ll still co back to your side to continue her education.”
Yan Yusong still shook his head and said, “Fa and profit are nice, but they’re also harmful.
Once you’re involved, it’s almost impossible to get away.
Your intentions may be good, but it won’t be up to you at that point.”
“Heh, you’re right,” Ye Fan said with a laugh, “but I’m letting Jingwei join ‘China’s Good Voice’ just for the experience and the fa, not the profit.
I don’t lack money, I can support Jingwei constantly on her musical journey.”
“Are you saying you won’t let Jingwei sign with an entertainnt company?” Yan Yusong asked, “Not signing is almost impossible.
Nobody wants to make a wedding dress for soone else.”
“Of course nobody does foolish things.
However…” Ye Fan said, and halfway through he turned to Zeng Jingwei, “Jingwei, could you please go help out in the kitchen with the mistress?”
Knowing that Ye Fan intended to send her away, Zeng Jingwei imdiately agreed, stood up, and headed to the kitchen.
After Zeng Jingwei entered the kitchen, Ye Fan took out a check for three million and passed it over.
Yan Yusong took the check, glanced at the amount, and looked up at Ye Fan sowhat surprised.
Ye Fan calmly said, “Professor Yan, I’d like you to communicate with ‘China’s Good Voice’ team to ensure they offer Jingwei a fair chance to compete.
If three million is not enough, I can add more, with no upper limit.
No special treatnt needed, just fair competition.”
“Well…
Okay.
I’ll try to talk to them,” Yan Yusong said.
“Thank you,” Ye Fan said with a smile.
Yan Yusong said, “Zeng Jingwei is my direct disciple; it’s only natural for to help her as much as I can.”
He paused, looked at the check once more, and said, “Jingwei is blessed to have you as a brother.
It’s the good fortune of three lifetis for her.”
He had long known the true relationship between Ye Fan and Zeng Jingwei.
Ye Fan rely smiled lightly.
Having finished discussing Zeng Jingwei’s participation in “China’s Good Voice,” Yan Yusong said with a smile, “Ye Fan, I’ve collected two songs recently that might suit you well.
Do you want to take a look?”
“This…” Ye Fan intended to refuse directly, but considering that he was no longer with the Dragon Group and his identity wasn’t as sensitive, he thought better of it.
Moreover, Yan Yusong’s offer was well-intentioned, so he didn’t want to be too blunt in refusing.
So he changed his mind and said, “Sure.”
Yan Yusong stood up with a smile: “Co on, let’s go up to the third-floor music room.
These two songs are of high quality, not inferior to ‘Only Love.’ If you sing them, they are sure to be a hit.”
Ye Fan got up and followed Yan Yusong upstairs.
Entering the music room, Yan Yusong showed Ye Fan the sheet music he had collected for the two songs.
As soon as Ye Fan saw the titles of the two songs, one called “Heartless Fish” and the other “Illusion City,” they were both love songs, closely following the style of “Only Love” and “She Said.”
Half an hour later, Ye Fan gave the two songs a trial sing, and Yan Yusong was extrely excited after listening.
“Ye Fan, you sang even better than I imagined,” Yan Yusong said excitedly, “especially ‘Illusion City.’ I dare say that if you sing it, it will definitely be more popular than ‘Only Love’!”
Ye Fan was a bit surprised; “Illusion City” was indeed a good song, and he also liked it quite a bit.
However, he did not plan to sing it.
Of course, he still decided to spend money to buy the rights to the two songs.
It was only two hundred thousand in total.
He didn’t mind collecting the two songs for himself.
As for whether to sing them or not, that was another matter.
