Superstar Growth Handbook

Chapter 39

Chen Ran and Xia Chen heaved a sigh of relief after seeing off the last media outlet. Chen Ran patted Xia Chen on the shoulder and said, "It's over, go back and rest."

Xia Chen nodded and said, "Okay."

When I got home, it was past five o'clock. Xia Chen took off her makeup and fell asleep on the bed.

"Kuukou—Xia Chen."

A familiar voice sounded outside the house. Xia Chen, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up. He opened his eyes in a daze. He didn't know that he had slept for too long. Xia Chen didn't realize it until his name sounded outside the door again .

"Xia Chen."

Only then did Xia Chen realize that he got up from the bed and walked to the door, "Here we are."

Opening the door, Xia Kui asked with a worried expression on his face, "Why didn't you come down to eat?"

Xia Chen rubbed his eyes and said lazily, "I just woke up."

Xia Kui nodded, patted Xia Chen's head, and said, "Don't sleep, come down to eat."

Xia Chen nodded and said, "Yes."

When passing the living room, Xia Chen looked at the wall clock on the wall, it was past ten o'clock.

Xia Chen saw that Xia Kui didn't have any food, and asked, "Brother, why don't you eat?"

Xia Kui said, "I've eaten." He had dinner tonight, and he had already eaten, and now he just had a supper with Xia Chen.

Xia Chen nodded, and then started to eat. His appetite was not very good either, and he couldn't eat after half a bowl of rice. He probably just woke up and his stomach was still awake.

"I'm stuffed."

Xia Kui looked at the half bowl of rice left in front of Xia Chen, nodded, and said, "Yeah."

Xia Chen returned to the living room and turned on the TV to watch out of boredom.

I watched a few channels back and forth, all of which were broadcasting TV dramas. Xia Chen didn't watch TV on weekdays, so he didn't know what to do next, so he glanced at it and switched to another channel.

When changing the channel again, Xia Chen stopped when he saw a familiar face on the screen, it was him.

What was broadcasting on the TV was the content of the press conference, and the camera frequently scanned his face, paying attention to his every move.

The press conference that lasted more than half an hour was shortened to 3 minutes when it was shown on TV.The main broadcast is the part where Shi Yi and Qiao An talked, and Yu Wanyi's answer when the media asked him, and the title at the bottom of the screen was also very eye-catching.

"The newcomer made his debut, picking up Yi Qiao'an's platform, with a strong lineup."

"Speaking of newcomers, Xingyun also has a newcomer debuting this time. I don't know what a good day it is today. The two major gold medal brokerage companies have launched newcomers, and they also have heavyweight guests on the platform. This Xia Chen is the best actor. He is escorted by Qiao An, the queen of heaven, and Tang Rong of Xingyun is the gold medal lyricist He Meng and his partner composer Gu Wenhui. You may not be familiar with these two, but in the industry, both of them are among the best figures. Even Qiao Many of Ann's lyrics and songs are produced by the two. There is a saying in the industry to explain the status of the two, if you haven't sung He Gu's songs, you can't be called a front-line..."

The host dutifully explained this, and the screen switched from Xia Chen's press conference to Tang Rong's.

Tang Rong is not very old this year, only about two or three years older than Xia Chen. He has a handsome appearance and looks very handsome, but he is very gentle when he smiles, so he must be able to win people's hearts.

When the picture turned around, it happened that Tang Rong was singing. He closed his eyes, with a gentle smile on his face, and the screams from the audience became louder and louder.

"It is reported that Tang Rong studied at B University before signing a contract with Xingyun. Because of her outstanding appearance and excellent singing voice, she gained the hearts of fans early in school. This time, when she held a new album release conference in S City, many people died. Loyal fans from city b to city s, it can be said to be well-intentioned."

It didn't take long for Tang Rong to sing on the screen, and soon turned to a young man with his hands folded around his chest, holding a microphone in one hand, and said: "Tang Rong's voice range is wide, and there are almost no songs he can't sing. I'm writing to him. When I sing, I feel very free and don’t have to think too much.”

Xia Chen looked at the young man, he must be He Meng.

"The two new stars of the new generation are the main newcomers of the two gold medal companies. Not only are they singing, but they are also so handsome in appearance. I am afraid that the two will be compared frequently in the entertainment industry in the future. The same goes for me I believe everyone is looking forward to their performances in the future.”

With the end of the host's words, this piece of news also ended, and the next one entered.

"This morning Huatian's first sister, the popular actress Yu Wanyi and the married boss's car shock photos were exposed, causing heated discussions among the public, and Huatian also responded quickly. At [-] o'clock this afternoon, Huatian's general manager Chen Ran said, A press conference will be held tomorrow morning, and we will not respond to any questions now, and we will continue the follow-up report tomorrow."

Next, a few small news were reported, the actress was suspected to be pregnant, xxx and yyy were together, Xia Chen looked at it and turned off the TV, lost in thought, what should he do now?

Xia Kui came out of the study and went downstairs to pour a glass of water, when she saw Xia Chen sitting on the sofa blankly, wondering what she was thinking.

Xia Kui walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xia Chen came back to his senses, looked up at Xia Kui, shook his head, and said, "It's nothing."

Xia Kui's face was slightly condensed, he rubbed Xia Chen's head, and said, "If you have nothing to do, go to rest early, it's already past twelve o'clock."

Xia Chen was startled, it's been so long?

"Well, I'm going to rest now." After speaking, Xia Chen stood up and walked upstairs.

Xia Kui looked at Xia Chen's leaving back, was silent for a while, and said: "If there is anything, don't hold it in your heart, you can tell me."

Xia Chen paused and didn't speak. After a long time, Xia Chen turned his head to look at Xia Kui, and said, "I'm a little confused. I don't know why. I used to practice every day, thinking about the party and a smooth debut. Now the party In the end, although there are some twists and turns in the debut, it is still going smoothly. However, I don’t know if I have the ability to deal with everything that will follow, the media, newcomers, and fans.”

Xia Kui walked up to Xia Chen, put his hands on Xia Chen's shoulders, and smiled softly, "Why did you want to be a singer before?"

Xia Chen looked at Xia Kui and said, "I like singing."

Xia Kui smiled, rubbed Xia Chen's head, and said, "Then just keep liking it, don't think about anything, just keep learning and pursuing your goals, keep going, this is the path you choose. Besides, even if you fail, you still have your big brother and this family, so you don’t have to be afraid of anything. Moreover, it doesn’t matter if you are confused, you are still young, and there is more time for you to shake off the fog in front of you. Just go ahead."

Xia Chen was slightly taken aback, and stared at Xia Kui in a daze.

Xia Kui squeezed Xia Chen's cheeks, pulled Xia Chen into his arms, and said, "When you don't know what you are going to do, just go with the flow and leave when someone pushes you. Just like you are now, you just Just follow your company's arrangement and don't think too much."

Xia Chen hugged Xia Kui and buried his head on Xia Kui's shoulder. After a while, Xia Chen said, "Brother." His tone was much more comfortable.

Xia Kui smiled, patted Xia Chen on the back, and said, "Hey, go up and rest."

Xia Chen's head left Xia Kui's shoulder, he nodded and said, "Yes."

After listening to Xia Kui's words, Xia Chen's mood improved a lot. Although he was still confused about the future, he was no longer confused. Xia Chen smiled at Xia Kui and said, "Brother, I'm going up."

Xia Kui nodded, smiled slightly, and said, "Go."

Xia Chen nodded and walked into the house.

Every morning is a new beginning.

The next day

At ten o'clock in the morning, the company's nanny car arrived at Xia Chen's home on time, and at ten twenty, Xia Chen arrived at the company's recording studio, where Chen Ran and Tao Xingzhi were all there.

Chen Ran handed the lyrics to Xia Chen, "Look at it."

Xia Chen took it over, looked at it, but didn't answer it, looked up at Chen Ran, "Farewell?"

Chen Ran nodded, and said: "Recovery, it's Huatian's tenth anniversary recently, you should release a tribute disc, and, in this way, you are more familiar with the lyrics and melody, and it is easier to master, so you can finish the recording smoothly."

Xia Chen asked, "What about "Chasing"?"

Chen Ran said: "It will also be included in it."

Xia Chen nodded and said, "Yes."

Chen Ran patted Xia Chen on the shoulder and said, "Come on."

Xia Chen smiled and nodded vigorously, "Okay!"

Xia Chen had listened to the song "Farewell" many times when he was young, so he still had a deep memory of the melody and lyrics, and it went smoothly when he entered the recording studio.

"Beside the ancient road outside the long pavilion, the green grass stretches to the sky. The evening wind blows the sound of willows and flutes, and the sunset outside the mountains. At the end of the sky, at the corner of the earth, half of friends are scattered. A ladle of turbid wine is full of joy, don't dream cold tonight... ..."

However, Tao Xingzhi's requirements were extremely strict. Even though Xia Chen thought he sang well, Tao Xingzhi still pointed out a lot of problems.

"Sing a little slower, and you have to pronounce the words honestly. Some sounds are too floaty. In addition, your range is relatively narrow, which is not suitable for high notes. When you can't sing, don't force yourself. Find a singing method that suits you and give full play to your own advantages. "

Xia Chen nodded, and repeated it several times. In the end, some sentences were even repeated dozens of times.

But even so, Tao Xingzhi was still not very satisfied, "Take a break at noon and continue in the afternoon."

Xia Chen showed a frustrated expression, but nodded in agreement.

In this way, Xia Chen had to record the first song "Farewell" for four days before Tao Xingzhi was satisfied, but after breaking the first hurdle, the subsequent recording went much smoother.

In the remaining week, Xia Chen finished recording the four songs "Sweet Honey", "I Like You", "Red Bean" and "The Moon Represents My Heart".

During this period, Xia Chen also received a reply from Lu Yaoyang, which contained only a short sentence, "Brother, I'm back."
