~6 min read 1,040 words

Xie Lecheng let out a bitter smile and said.

"This girl has been stubborn since childhood. Mr. Su wants to try guiding her, but I'm afraid the difficulty will be quite high."

Su Meng nodded in agreement.

Stubborn? It's nothing short of deep-seated addiction!

For a moment, silence fell over the reception room.

Su Meng shook his head and, having nothing to say, made conversation.

"Judging by Mr. Xie's accent, you seem to be from the Xiang province area?"

Xie Lecheng said offhandedly.

"Mr. Su has excellent hearing."

"I am from Ningxiang, Xiang province. When I was young, I came to Magic City to make my way, and my accent never changed."

Oh? Su Meng was slightly stunned, and suddenly an idea struck him.

"Since Wan Zi is so stubborn, why don't we take it step by step?"

Xie Lecheng raised an eyebrow, instantly intrigued.

"Does Mr. Su have an idea?"

Su Meng helplessly shook his head.

"Let's try. Regardless, after all, she is still a child."

Xie Lecheng looked at him seriously and finally nodded.

"No matter what happens, I thank you today, Mr. Su. I, Xie, owe you this favor."

While they were talking animatedly on the side, Wan Zi could no longer hold back.

"Brother, what are you saying to my dad?"

Su Meng turned his head and asked with a smile.

"Wan Zi, let me ask you something first."

"Regarding these past couple of days, why do you think I was cheated on?"

Wan Zi instantly perked up.

"Because of your song, Brother!"

"If you hadn't experienced it personally, how could you have written that song with such heart-wrenching pain?"

"Brother, who exactly is that fox spirit?"

"Our Third Division will definitely help you get revenge!"

Su Meng's mouth twitched several times, and he forced a smile onto his face.

"Wan Zi, this is just songwriting; it is not a true expression of reality."

"Then according to your logic, if I write 'Shanhe Tu', must I travel all over the five lakes and four seas?"

"If I write 'Hero Song', do I first have to go to Liang Shan and chop up a few people?"

Seeing Wan Zi look unconvinced and about to speak, Su Meng quickly cut her off.

"Actually, this song has another version."

"Bai Xiao Ling's version of the singing style is wrong; she sang it off-key!"

"The truly correct version, I have not officially released yet!"

Ah? The other few people were instantly dumbfounded.

This song came out and swept the charts with the momentum of a king, and you tell me it's wrong?

Wan Zi shook her head, her face filled with disbelief.

"Brother, are you teasing me?"

"Bai Xiao Ling sang so well; how could she possibly sing off-key?"

"My English is very good; I really understood this song..."

"No! You don't understand!" Su Meng cut her off directly, turned his head, and said to the little assistant.

"Xiao Yan, go notify the recording studio to prepare; I'll go over there in a moment to record a new song!"

"Oh, by the way, have the Film Department bring a camera over."

The little assistant nodded dizzily and ran out in a daze...

By the time Su Meng brought the Xie father and daughter to the recording studio, the place was already packed with people.

The Retired Emperor of Xinghai is recording a new song; this news instantly shocked the entire company.

Besides a few sound engineers, the Film Department also arranged for two cameras to come over.

Even Duan Duan Jiangping came running over excitedly.

Isn't every song by the Retired Emperor a sensation at the time?

This is all traffic, this is all money!

Su Meng gave a few low instructions to the sound engineer, then turned to the cameraman and arranged.

"Camera One goes straight to a close-up, capturing my facial expressions."

"Camera Two pay attention to mixing close and long shots; the rest is up to you."

Then he turned his head and entered the recording booth.

The two cameramen were instantly stunned.

The two of them had filmed 'Flash Girl' and 'Drawing Sword' with Su Meng; Su Meng's directing skills left them in awe.

But every time Su Meng directed the camera, it was with extreme precision; was there ever a moment when they were allowed to improvise freely?

However, since the director had spoken, what else could be done?

In the recording studio, Su Meng adjusted his state, then flashed an "OK" gesture to the sound engineer through the glass.

The sound engineer, as if facing a great enemy, carefully pressed play on the accompaniment.

The control desk had only two headphones, which were occupied by the two sound engineers.

The others could not hear the sound; they could only watch Su Meng's silent performance inside the recording booth.

Suddenly, Su Meng, who had just been normal, instantly changed his expression.

His eyes were wide and round, his mouth opening and closing, occasionally gaping wide, his expression extremely exaggerated.

It gave people an inexplicable sense of humor.

Everyone who saw this scene was stunned.

Wait, wasn't he supposed to sing the correct version of《》?

What is with this expression?

This is clearly a sad love song, so why does it feel like you are singing so happily?

At the control desk, the two sound engineers suddenly froze.

The two stiffly turned their heads to look at each other, their faces filled with doubt about life itself.

Seeing their expressions, everyone was even more confused.

The hell, what exactly did you hear?

Why do you have these expressions?

But luckily, knowing they were recording a song, each one could only barely suppress their curiosity.

……

Not long after, one take was finished.

Sound Engineer A, his hand trembling, tore off the headphones, his voice somewhat dazed.

"Bai Xiao Ling... sang off-key?"

Sound Engineer B nodded blankly.

"How exactly should this song... be sung?"

"Why do I feel that Brother Su's singing style... is the ultimate version of this song?"

"This is too... addictive, isn't it?"

Sound Engineer A suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself hard.

Sound Engineer B was also in a daze.

"Who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?"
