Chapter 965: There Is Something to Be Gained by Knowing Him
Mo Liuxi coldly twitched his lips and said, “Miss. Pei, do you often get bad grades in school?”
Pei Wei didn’t get his meaning.
“I guess you were one of those students who only read the materials that the teacher told them to read,” Mo Liuxi said. “When you failed an exam, you’d only blame the teacher for not giving you enough reading materials.”
The others immediately understood his sarcastic metaphor. The other directors and producers couldn’t help but t.i.tter.
Pei Wei’s cheeks turned red.
“The task I gave the three of you is the same,” Li Ming said with a smile. “The others made more effort than you did. I gave you an opportunity for fair compet.i.tion, but the most hard-working ones always win.”
Pei Wei didn’t dare argue. She was very upset and aware that she was going to lose. She would have nothing to say if she lost to Ye Yunyang, but she couldn’t accept losing to Yan Su.
“Miss. Yan, please start,” Mo Liuxi said.
Yan Su glanced at him gratefully. Finally, she felt that knowing him was a good thing.
Yan Su’s voice was completely different from Ye Yunyang’s. When she crooned, her voice was deep. Added with her guitar, her singing had a sense of rhythm that Ye Yunyang’s didn’t have.
As she finished, the people applauded.
Director Li liked her singing. He said, “I have heard your songs before. Your voice is clean and bright, so I was worried that my theme would not suit you. After hearing you sing, I now know that my worries were unnecessary. I like your lyrics too. I’m surprised that you expressed the emotions so well.”
“Ye Yunyang’s work is good too,” He Jian, the producer, reminded Director Li, “You can’t forget about him after listening to Miss Yan’s voice.”
“I know.” Director Li rubbed his temples and said, “How about this. Let’s vote. The one who gets the most votes will be singing our theme song.”
“That’s a good idea,” the others agreed.
Six people made votes. Ye Yunyang and Yan Su each got three votes, Pei Wei got zero. She felt so ashamed that her face turned scarlet.
“This is difficult,” Director Li said.
Yan Su was so nervous that her palms were sweating.
“I think we should choose Ye Yunyang,” He Jian said. “He is a highly skilled and experienced singer. His voice is familiar with most people over 30 years old.”
“I think Yan Su is skilled too, and she’s popular,” said Yan Meng, the supervising producer.
Mo Liuxi turned his pen. He finally joined the conversation and said with a cold voice, “In fact, their voices can be impressive together.”
Director Li’s eyes glowed. “Are you saying that…”
Mo Liuxi nodded and asked, “Why can’t they sing the song together? There is an age gap between them, but one of them has a touching, strong voice, and the other could sing with a floating, gentle voice. Shouldn’t that be interesting? Besides, isn’t Yan Su’s voice perfect to be heard during the film when the female lead is put into a miserable situation? She can sing the ending song too, sad and deep. I’ve heard her songs. Her love songs are great.”
“Yes, you reminded me,” Director Li patted the table excitedly and said, “Let’s do that. Yan Su and Ye Yunyang will sing the theme song together. I believe you two can create marvelous work together. As for the interlude song and the ending song, Yan Su will work on them.”
The rest of the crew nodded in agreement.
