Chapter 287 Isn’t this bullying?
"'Qian Gu'? This name sounds good, let's play it." Liu Ansheng said with great interest.

He is a person who likes to look at the title of a song to choose whether to listen to it. If the title of a song is not within his interest, Liu Ansheng will definitely not listen to it.

He Xiang was obviously prepared. Not long after Liu Ansheng finished speaking, the song "Qian Gu" began to play in the conference room.

Duration: 3 minutes and 55 seconds.

It's a nearly four-minute song and I finished it very quickly.

Many people present showed satisfied expressions, and some were even so engrossed in the song that their faces turned red after listening to it.

It’s not that they heard anything they shouldn’t have heard, but the song was so passionate that it excited them.

"It's worthy of being the work of Shuang Xu! The level of the lyrics and the music is much higher than those songs we listened to a while ago!"

"Such a majestic song, it seems that from the moment the melody sounded, it presented the heroic spirit of Qin Shihuang who unified the world to our ears. Xu Qingfeng is really amazing!"

"Why don't we just use this song 'Eternal' as the theme song for 'The Qin Dynasty'? Shengchuan Entertainment is really sincere this time and brought Xu Qingfeng and Xu Weiwen together. If this song still doesn't work, I really don't know what song in our country can do it."

"Indeed! This song "Eternal" is definitely the MVP at the moment. Let's just decide on it. This way we don't have to worry about it anymore, and we can finally put an end to the nearly two months of wasted time in song selection."

"Director He, please take this one!"

"Let's take it, let's take it! Even if we don't want this song now, I don't think there will be a theme song more suitable for our "The Qin Dynasty" than this one in the future, so don't waste your time, okay?"

"That's right! Those who agree that this song should be the title of "The Qin Dynasty" please raise your hands, okay?"

In the conference room, many people from the creative team of "The Great Qin Dynasty" gave positive reviews to the song "Eternal Love".

Some members even directly turned to the chief director He Xiang and started the "forcing the palace" mode.

In the entire conference room, only three or five people did not raise their hands, including He Xiang, Liu Ansheng and Wang Hongwei, the people who had the decision-making power.

This shows how popular the song "Qian Gu" is among the people.

He Xiang was not surprised by the reactions of the people in the conference room, because in his eyes, "Qian Gu" is currently the most suitable song for the theme song of "The Qin Dynasty", without a doubt.

But it’s not that easy to get this song!

"I don't really want to pour cold water on you all." He Xiang said.

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone at the conference table began to become interesting, with expressions of confusion, bewilderment, and thoughtfulness ranging from mild to severe.

Everyone focused their attention on He Xiang, who said, "The song 'Eternal' was composed by Xu Qingfeng and the lyrics were written by Xu Weiwen. I think everyone has seen it just now. This is why I poured out this basin of cold water."

At this point, He Xiang smiled helplessly: "Everyone knows that Shengchuan Entertainment and our Yehua Entertainment don't have a good relationship. Xu Qingfeng, who was previously in the music department of our company, was poached by Shengchuan Entertainment."

"Now, the Shuang Xu of Shengchuan Entertainment has written a song like this for us. Do you think they will calmly give us this song "Qian Gu"?"

As soon as He Xiang asked this question, everyone in the meeting room immediately had some ideas.

"Can't they just calmly give us this song? This is a huge order worth 10 million. Can't Shengchuan Entertainment tell the difference?"

"So from what Director He said, the other party wants to raise the price? This 10 million yuan can't satisfy their appetite?"

"Really? And they're raising the price? What is Shengchuan Entertainment thinking? Do they think we must have his song 'Eternal'?"

"From the current situation, it seems that we really have to use this song 'Eternal Ages'."

"Director He, is Shengchuan Entertainment really going to raise the price? If so, how much are they asking?"

Listening to the discussions around them, He Xiang and Wang Hongwei both frowned.

It’s not that I dislike the creative team of "The Qin Dynasty" for being noisy, but I am a little dissatisfied with Shengchuan Entertainment's operation.

Facing everyone's inquiring eyes, He Xiang sighed, then raised his right hand, opened his palm, facing everyone, and said:

"Five million. They want to add another five million. That means if we want to use the song 'Thousands of Years', we have to give Shengchuan Entertainment fifteen million."

After the words were spoken, the conference room fell silent.

Everyone at the table looked as if they had heard something unbelievable. Their eyes were wide open as if they were about to burst from their sockets.

"Five million plus? How dare Shengchuan Entertainment?"

"No, who gave Xu Qingfeng and Xu Weiwen such a big face? They dared to cheat us out of 15 million for just one song? Don't they really know how to weigh their own weight? Do they really think that the two Xus are worth this price?"

"Damn it, Xu Qingfeng is so heartless. After all, our Yehua Entertainment is his predecessor, right? But now he is teaming up with his current partner to deceive us. Does he really think that our Yehua Entertainment is some naive idiot?"

"Xu Qingfeng, I really made you a blessing!"

"I saw that Xu Qingfeng also had 68g of gold, and the full price was 4."

"A song that costs 1,500 yuan... I have never heard a song that costs so much in my life... How dare Shengchuan Entertainment?"

"Damn it, Shengchuan Entertainment's tactics are too despicable, they are really not human!"

"By raising the price at this stall, aren't they clearly bullying people?"

"Really? It's as if we have to sing this song 'Eternal Ages'. How shameless!"

Many of the main creative members of "The Great Qin Dynasty" have already spoken well of it.

Even Liu Ansheng and Wang Hongwei couldn't hold back and scolded Shengchuan Entertainment.

"Fifteen million? Dream on. Let's not do this song anymore."

Liu Ansheng waved his hand and said boldly: "It's just a theme song for a movie. We don't need to strive for perfection. The most important thing about a movie is the content. The theme song is just the icing on the cake."

"Indeed."

Wang Hongwei nodded, agreeing with Liu Ansheng's statement: "When the project was first launched, I thought it was a waste to spend 10 million to find a theme song. But now, 10 million is not enough, and 15 million is needed..."

Having said this, Wang Hongwei paused for a moment, looked at He Xiang, and smiled mockingly.

"It's okay, just say it." He Xiang waved his hand, motioning him to continue.

"Then I won't be polite."

Wang Hongwei continued with a smile: "If you really want to spend 15 million to buy this song "Eternal", it is not a waste, but a pure act of brain holes."

"..."

His words immediately silenced He Xiang.

The people present dared not laugh or show their anger, because they were not sure whether He Xiang would really spend 15 million to buy the song. After all, He Xiang was famous for his pursuit of perfection.

Seeing that He Xiang didn't say a word, as if he had fallen into silence, Wang Hongwei asked in surprise: "Brother Xiang, you don't really want to buy the song "Eternal" at a super high price, do you?"

Liu Ansheng also frowned. He didn't want to spend 15 million on a song.

Moreover, isn’t this behavior just a way of showing that Yehua Entertainment is bowing to Shengchuan Entertainment?
The relationship between the two families was not very good to begin with, and they even spent 15 million to buy a theme song from their rival.

This is not only a sign of surrender, but also a sign of resentment.

And he is a big victim.

"Stop looking at me like that. I really want to buy this song 'Eternal'."

He Xiang waved his hand and said with a smile: "As for the 5 million increase in price proposed by Shengchuan Entertainment, let me handle it myself, and there is no need to spend the extra budget the company has given us."

Although he is a complainer, He Xiang really wants to be that complainer.

There was no way, he really wanted to make the movie "The Qin Dynasty" a perfect work of art.

A perfect work of art naturally requires the most suitable theme song!

In fact, it is easy to understand. For He Xiang, "The Great Qin Dynasty" is his child. As a parent, he naturally wants to give his children the best.

"It doesn't mean you have to spend money to buy songs yourself."

Liu Ansheng smiled and shook his head: "It's only five million. We at Yehua Entertainment can still afford it. But before you decide to buy the song "Eternal" I advise you to wait for the song that Bai Xingjian writes for you."

Having said that, Liu Ansheng still felt a pain in his flesh.

After all, five million is still five million!
He is not a big star who can earn 208 million a day, and he still treats money as dirt.

"Yes! Before making the final decision, let's take a look at the song written by Bai Xingjian." Wang Hongwei quickly took over Liu Ansheng's words.

Although his relationship with Ji Qiu was indeed not very good, when it came to such a major issue involving five million and the company's honor, Wang Hongwei still knew what was more important.

The more important reason was that he thought it was really unnecessary to spend 15 million to buy a theme song for a movie.

Moreover, if the people in Yehua Entertainment's music department knew about this news, Ji Qiu and his subordinates would definitely be defeated, and their defenses would be greatly broken.

Although Wang Hongwei also likes to see Ji Qiu and the others break down, in the current situation, it is indeed a bit too much.

So Wang Hongwei still wanted to fight for Bai Xingjian, even though he didn't think highly of Bai Xingjian.

Therefore, Wang Hongwei did not place his hopes on Bai Xingjian, but instead thought about trying to persuade He Xiang during the time when Bai Xingjian was writing songs. What if He Xiang was really persuaded to come back?
Although there is little hope in this situation, we still have to give it a try.

But something unexpected happened. Just when He Xiang responded to Liu Ansheng and Wang Hongwei, his and Wang Hongwei's phones rang with message notification tones at the same time.

"That's fine, but I'll just wait for three more days. If Bai Xingjian still hasn't finished writing the song in three days, then I won't wait any longer."

He Xiang nodded and reluctantly agreed to Liu Ansheng and Wang Hongwei's proposal.

After saying this, He Xiang reached for the cell phone in his pocket.

If a cell phone rings during a meeting, it must be very important news.

In this regard, everyone present expressed their understanding. Including Liu Ansheng, they all watched He Xiang and Wang Hongwei checking the messages on their mobile phones with great interest.

The two people who became the focus of everyone turned their heads and looked at each other involuntarily after reading the message.

The two people have different expressions and mentalities.

Wang Hongwei: Damn it, Bai Xingjian couldn't have sent the song at any other time, but at this critical moment? Is there any time left to relax? Not at all, right? He really does not help but ruin things.

Wang Hongwei had already sentenced Bai Xingjian to death in his heart.

He Xiang smiled cheerfully, raised his eyes and said to everyone, "It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Just now, Zheng Wei sent us the song written by Bai Xingjian."

Hearing this, everyone at the conference table had interesting expressions.

Liu Ansheng was somewhat surprised and astonished.

Members of the creative team of "The Qin Dynasty" all looked like they were enjoying a good show.

"Oh my god, this is really a coincidence!"

"Fate! Is this the legendary fate?"

"Quick, quick, quick! Director He! Bring us the song written by Bai Xingjian! I want to hear what kind of song this genius creator has created for our "The Great Qin Dynasty"."

"I heard before that he usually only takes one or two days to write a song. This time he took such a long time, so the song should be of good quality, right? We can look forward to it!"

"Li Li, quickly control your weird skills!"

"This time it's really sent! If Bai Xingjian's song isn't good enough, then it's probably a foregone conclusion that our Director He will buy the song 'Eternal Ages'?"

"Hey, what else can we do? Let's see if Bai Xingjian can turn the tide. If he can't, then we can break the defense of Jiang Tao and the others in the music department, hahahaha."

Some members of the creative team shouted loudly, while others discussed in a low voice.

"What's the name of this song written by Bai Xingjian?"

After the meeting room quieted down, Liu Ansheng asked.

Wang Hongwei looked up at Liu Ansheng and said nothing because he was unable to express himself.

He Xiang said it very straightforwardly: "Borrow another five hundred years from heaven."

"Ah? Ask God to lend me another five hundred years?"

"I'm not complaining, but this song title really doesn't have any literary sense at all. Asking the Heaven to Borrow Another 500 Years, is it written for Sun Wukong? To let the Buddha suppress him for another 500 years?"

"Maybe Sun Wukong wants to ask the Buddha to return the five hundred years he was suppressed under the Flower-Fruit Mountain."

".There is a language called speechless. You guys who understand me really want to laugh!"

The noisy conference room reflected the doubts of everyone present about the song composed by Bai Xingjian.

Liu Ansheng also frowned.

The title of this song is really not that good.
