Chapter 180: Let’s not Get Down to Business
Chapter 180
Nan XiangWan and Gu Beihuai came to the living room.
Nan XiangWan was a little embarrassed because she found that there was not even good tea to entertain guests at home.
There were only Coca-Colas filling the fridge...
Nan XiangWan coughed lightly, then sat right in the middle of the sofa with her hands propped on her knees, sitting like an old man.
Gu Beihuai lowered his eyes, not knowing what kind of expression to show at this time.
Nan XiangWan: "Sit down!"
Gu Beihuai nodded and sat on the side sofa to her lower hand.
The moment he sat down!
Gu Beihuai frowned, not knowing why, this scene seemed a bit familiar.
The girl sitting in the main position, with a certain domineering aura.
It looks like...
Nan XiangWan scratched the back of her head and started opening the homework full of problems.
The domineering aura disappeared.
Overwhelmed by the huge amount of homework!
Gu Beihuai came to his senses for a moment, then got up and walked a few steps.
He didn't know if it was his illusion just now, or if there was something wrong.
Nan XiangWan didn't care about him either, just struggling with her homework alone.
Gu Beihuai saw the courier box at the door, the intact waybill was still on it, unopened.
He walked over: "What is this?"
Nan XiangWan took a look and answered casually: "Oh, mock exam papers for the college entrance examination, ten sets."
Gu Beihuai: "Did you buy it online?"
Nan XiangWan: "No, Gouzi gave it to me."
Gu Beihuai raised his eyebrows.
Gouzi?
Who?
Do you have a Gouzi outside?!
Gu Beihuai almost went crazy for a moment, but he quickly stabilized his emotions.
Nan XiangWan's current state was obviously single!
Moreover, she was so busy with reviewing and recording variety shows, as well as writing songs.
She simply didn't have time to fall in love!
Gu Beihuai quickly mobilized his mind, and then decided to skip this topic.
Chasing and beating hard was not the best policy!
As long as Nan XiangWan was single, he and the guy called 'Gouzi' were in a fair competition.
Who can make it is not necessarily true!
So, Gu Beihuai moved the courier a little bit to the corner, trying to put it out of Nan XiangWan's sight.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Out of mind, no chance.
Gu Beihuai turned around and sat back down on the sofa, opened the test paper on the coffee table, and started to do homework with Nan XiangWan.
He decided!
From now on, he would come to accompany Nan XiangWan to do homework every day!
Don't give that Gouzi a chance!
Nan XiangWan was extremely efficient in doing homework tonight. With a companion by her side, it was much more useful than when she was alone.
But with high efficiency came brain overuse.
By nighttime, Nan XiangWan couldn't hold on for a minute and fell asleep as soon as she lay down!
When Gu Beihuai left, she was already snoring lightly.
............
The next day, assistant Xiao Dong came in a GMC Business Class to pick up Nan XiangWan.
There were still two songs left to be recorded on Tianming's first album.
They were also the two most important songs on the whole album.
When Nan XiangWan arrived at Nabe Entertainment, her teammates were already trying out the songs.
Recording "Wo Ye" was very difficult. In addition to the extremely high rap skills and singing techniques required, it also needed a lot of emotional input!
Because when Nan XiangWan was writing this song, she had gone through the life and death battle with the wild boar.
She was touched and inspired, but her other teammates were not on the scene, let alone witnessed it, so it was a bit difficult for them to understand.
After going through it again and again, the recording engineer finally had a chance to see the Tianming girls repeatedly recording songs. After another time, he would really have to step down.
Ge Dongxuan recorded a few times but it wasn't right. She came out to ask Nan XiangWan for advice.
Ge Dongxuan: "How should I sing it? Is my professional skill not good enough?"
Nan XiangWan shook her head: "Your professional skills are too strong. What this song needs is not advanced singing skills, but wild roaring, the most primitive kind."
Zhu Sha was also beside, exasperated: "We should have applied to the program team to go with you. Without seeing it with our own eyes, we simply can't experience the thrilling horror between life and death."
Nan XiangWan: "Imagine that you are about to die in the next second, and bravely fight back."
Sha Ling: "What about the later part? The later part wasn't fighting anymore."
Nan XiangWan: "Imagine yourself dying of old age and illness, with regrets about the human world, but having to retreat to the woods."
The teammates all listened dumbfoundedly, looking at Nan XiangWan with strange expressions.
With so many emotions and such rich experiences, how did you write it out?
"What was that line again?" Nan XiangWan saw that they still didn't understand, and explained again: "On the verge of death, suddenly sitting up in shock!"
Everyone: "......"
However, with Nan XiangWan's sentence-by-sentence explanations on site, it became much smoother to record later.
After two or three times, it was finally done!
Next up was recording "RainCat", which was much easier to record.
Everyone witnessed the birth of this song on the scene and had a sense of being there.
When singing, everyone subconsciously became sweet-voiced, as if returning to that rainy day.
Everyone passed in one take!
With all 8 songs recorded, the remaining work was no longer their responsibility.
The seven of them were led on a tour of Nabe Entertainment's dance studios.
Over the next few days, they still had to choreograph dances for each song, to be used for the first concert.
However, there was no requirement to finish quickly this time. The follow-up production could hardly keep up with their progress!
The release of the album and preparations for the concert were handled by Nabe Entertainment. The stylists had also contacted them. Everything was moving steadily forward.
Over the next few days, Nan XiangWan would go to Nabe's dance studio in the morning to discuss choreography with her teammates, and return to the apartment to continue reviewing in the afternoon. At night she would do homework with Gu Beihuai.
As the college entrance exam day drew nearer, she became more and more nervous!
On May 22nd.
The follow-up production of all 8 songs was completed. Zhao Tiancheng listened to them N times repeatedly and confirmed there were no problems.
That night at 8 pm prime time, the 8 songs were simultaneously released on major music platforms!
On Weibo, Tianming Girl Group's official account was also frantically urging everyone to go listen.
Although this official account had zero presence.
Any one of the seven team members had fans several times that of the official account.
The official account's fans were pitifully few.
Zhao Tiancheng opened WeChat, wanting to @ the seven in the group to repost the official account's latest information.
But he soon painfully discovered that he had left the group!
Zhao Tiancheng was irritated, and changed to finding the previous 9-person show group.
Fortunately this group wasn't gone!
[Tianming Show Group (9 people)]
'Zhao Tiancheng: @everyone the 8 new songs are all online, please repost the Tianming official account!'
Now he had changed the way he spoke, trying to get people to respond to him, with an extremely low profile attitude.
God knows how low he was!
Soon, the group became lively.
'Ge Dongxuan: Wow wow wow! Posted already? I want to listen!'
'Yun Qian: Are you stupid? Don't you know the songs you sang yourself?'
'Deng Si Nan: "Wo Ye" is really so good, listening makes my blood boil!'
'Ge Dongxuan: Oh oh oh! F*ck! F*ck! Sounds so good! How can my voice be so charming! My god!'
'Zhou Wenxia: Sounds so good, every song is good. Do our voices match so well?'
'Sha Ling: @Nan XiangWan Ah Wan look! "Wo Ye" is skyrocketing!'
'Deng Si Nan: Holy crap! Just now it was outside the top ten, now it's number eight in the blink of an eye!'
'Zhu Sha: Number five now.'
'Yun Qian: Still rising, this speed is too fast! Is this going for number one daily?'
'Zhu Sha: Number one daily is "Jian Wu", can we surpass the sky-high popularity of the king?'
'Zhao Tiancheng: @everyone stop chatting! Go repost the Weibo!'
Zhao Tiancheng was also angry. One by one they were like gossipers who liked to watch the excitement rather than do proper work!
