Chapter 220 Support (Part 1)

Want to compare the differences between your childhood piano learning experiences with Shen Qing?

Everyone present could tell that Wei Hongsi's explanation was clearly an excuse, but no one called it out on.

Jiang Haiyang changed the subject, asking Shen Qing, "What style is that new song you're promoting?"

Shen Qing said, "I think it should be considered a relatively new musical style. This song was co-written by Hong Si and me."

C

"You wrote it together?" Jiang Haiyang asked in surprise, looking at Wei Hongsi. "When did you start writing songs?"

Feng Weixu also said, "That's right, how come I didn't know you had this talent?"

Wei Hongsi said, "I don't know how to write songs. I just gave Shen Qing some suggestions. She didn't want my contribution to go unnoticed, so she gave me a chance to be credited."

Jiang Haiyang laughed and said, "So you got it for free?"

Wei Hongsi said, "Yes, I hitched a ride and accidentally crossed over into a different field."

Shen Qing said, "Don't be modest! Without your suggestion, this song wouldn't exist. Also, asking you to be credited is to help me share the burden!"

Wei Hongsi asked, "Did you put my name first?"

Shen Qing smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes! You contributed the most!"

Feng Weixu looked incredulous: "No way, you can get a first-class authorship like this?"

Jiang Haiyang shook his head and said, "This is really a huge bargain!"

Shen Qing said, "That's not fair. If we use writing a thesis as an analogy, Hongsi's role is to point out the essential breakthrough of the problem. And as I said, he also helps me share the burden."

Jiang Haiyang asked, "Are you worried that the style of this new song might not be easily accepted by fans?"

Shen Qing nodded slightly: "The style of this new song is quite unique and doesn't quite meet the aesthetic requirements of most pop music lovers."

Jiang Haiyang and Feng Weixu both understood that Shen Qing was intentionally seeking some changes and breakthroughs in musical style.

Such an attempt is undoubtedly risky and may not be well-received, so it takes a lot of courage to take this step, especially for a rising star like her.

Jiang Haiyang said, "I believe in your abilities; gold will always shine."

Feng Weixu said, "That's right, let's drink soup instead of wine to wish your new song great success on the charts!"

"Thank you!" Shen Qing said with a smile.

No one drank alcohol or beverages during the meal; it was just plain rice. The four of them clinked their soup bowls together.

After putting down the soup bowl, Jiang Haiyang said, "After hearing your introduction, I'm even more curious about your new song."

Shen Qing said, "I have it on my phone. Oh, and Hongsi has it too. Do you want to listen now?"

Jiang Haiyang said, "I'll still put the first listen on your debut track; it feels better that way."

Feng Weixu nodded and said, "Yes, that's even better." He then looked at Wei Hongsi, "You've already heard that?"

Jiang Haiyang laughed and said, "That's a question you should ask. He's the first author, after all." Then he asked Wei Hongsi, "What did you think after hearing it?"

"Of course it's excellent," Wei Hongsi said, then added after a moment's thought, "Shen Qing's lyrics are also exceptionally well-written."

Feng Weixu said, "Then it's even more worth looking forward to."

After the four of them finished eating and had some fruit, they divided the tasks and tidied up. By the time they were done, it was almost nine o'clock. Feng Weixu stayed overnight at Jiang Haiyang's house, so Wei Hongsi and Shen Qing said goodbye to them.

The two went downstairs, got into their car, and drove out of the residential area.

Shen Qing asked, "When you asked me about learning the piano when I was little, was there a problem?"

Wei Hong pondered for a moment and said, "I want to figure out why Zhou Huai noticed you. Before he contacted you, although you had already won some awards and gained a certain degree of fame, I don't think the reason is sufficient."

Shen Qing thought for a moment and said, "The awards I won are indeed quite prestigious for a student, but they don't really bring me much fame, so your doubts are quite valid. However, I probably attracted even less attention when I was younger, right?"

Wei Hongsi said, "The criminal gang to which Zhou Huai belonged would target children, especially smart children."

I heard you mentioned learning piano as a child, so I thought I'd look into it.

"I see. So they attacked the child when no adults were around?"

"Yes, that's basically the case."

"When I was little, my mother always accompanied me to learn the piano. Later, when we found a teacher to come to our home to teach, my mother was still there with me."

"Then they probably won't have a chance to make a move. Hmm, I just remembered to ask."

Shen Qing smiled and asked, "Are you also planning to listen to our new song after midnight?"

"Of course," Wei Hongsi nodded. "We definitely have to support ourselves. Well, you don't have to listen, I'll listen for you."

Shen Qing smiled and nodded: "Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

Wei Hongsi took Shen Qing to her apartment and then returned to his own dormitory. It was almost ten o'clock.

After showering, he sat down at the corner table, took out the book he was reading, and continued reading. He read until midnight, then closed the book, put it on the shelf, put on his headphones, and opened a music streaming app on his phone.

He had previously downloaded and registered as a member and then followed Shen Qing. Upon opening the app, a pop-up notification appeared, reminding him that Shen Qing's new song, "The Brave," was available. Clicking on this notification took him directly to the song's playback page.

The center of the page features a photo of Shen Qing, with brief information about the song below.

—The Brave One Lyrics: Shen Qingyi Composer: Wei Si/Shen Qingyi Arranger: Shen Qing Wei Hongsi When he saw the pen name that Shen Qing gave him, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

Soon, a familiar rhythm came through the headphones, and I heard Shen Qing's singing voice. As the lyrics appeared line by line, although the song was the same as the version Shen Qing had sent me before, the feeling was completely different.

As Wei Hongsi listened, he explored the software's functions and quickly discovered the comments and bullet comments. Upon opening them, he saw that there were quite a few, mostly praising the users. It seemed that many of Shen Qing's fans had waited specifically for this moment to go online and support her new song.

After listening to it once, Wei Hongsi found the new song's position on the weekly chart. "The Brave One" was currently ranked 37th.

He is still some distance from Shen Qing's goal, but the gap doesn't seem too big, and he should be able to catch up.

Some of Shen Qing's fans left comments saying that they had already promoted the video on their WeChat Moments and video accounts, and called on other fans to do the same.

Wei Hongsi thought this was a good idea; if everyone could bring in a supporter, wouldn't the number of supporters double?

So he also posted a status update on his WeChat Moments, recommending Shen Qing's new song. After finishing, it was quite late, so he put away his headphones and went to bed.
