โLet… let go… I am dying, I am dying… โ His colleague was strangled almost until he couldnโt breathe. โYou… you are committing murder…โ
Then, Sheng Wenshi changed to pressing his shoulders instead and shook him violently. โWhere is this lady now? Bring me to her now! Her song is most suitable for the theme song for the movie. Itโs perfect!โ
His colleague took in deep breaths, panting like an old brown cow that was working on the fields. โWhat are you so rushed for… Huff… Itโs not like I wonโt tell you… Huff… How is it, this lady is not bad, right? When I listened to her sing yesterday, I immediately became her loyal fan!โ
Sheng Wenshi became frantic. โAhhh, stop talking crap! I know that you are her loyal fan, I am too! But what I am asking is how I can find her! How do I find her! Now is not the time to discuss whether you are a loyal fan or not!โ
By now, his colleague had finally caught his breath. โYesterday night, I was bored, and I heard from my friend that the Ye Lai Xiang nightclub in West Fourth Loop was entirely free, so I went. When I arrived, the crowd was spectacular… Ah, donโt rush, I am going to say it, really!โ Feeling the piercing stare from Sheng Shiwen, he hurriedly said, โI will just skip the beginning. When this lady went on stage, the crowd totally erupted. She sang a total of two songs. I felt that this โLightning Pursuitโ was suitable to be the theme song for the movie, so I paid special attention to her. Then, I found out that she seemed to… seemed to be… how should I say it?โ
โSeemed to be what? Youโre going to make me die from nervousnessโis that what you want?โ Sheng Wenshi was quick to be enraged. He panted heavily just from listening to his colleague.
โEn, she seemed to be the mistress of a rich familyโs young master, but that also didnโt seem to be the case. The young master was only about 17 or 18 years old, and their relationship didnโt seem very close. But if there is some other relationship, I couldnโt tell.โ After a long-winded speech, his colleague finally concluded. โBasically, she is definitely related to that young master.โ
โWhoโs that young master? Did you find out?โ Sheng Wenshi curiously asked.
โOf course.โ His colleague pushed his glasses up his nose. โItโs Young Master Hong Dali from the Hong family. You have definitely heard of him before.โ
Upon hearing this name, Sheng Wenshi almost bit off his own tongue. โHong Dali from the Hong family? The infamous prodigal!? Where did that prodigal find this extraordinary singer?โ
โHow am I supposed to know that?โ His colleague jabbed Sheng Wenshiโs elbow. โHehe, Old Sheng, I heard that in two days, Young Master Hong Dali will be hosting a concert for this lady at the West Fourth Loop sports stadium. And itโll be totally free. On that day…โ
What was there to hesitate for? Sheng Wenshi immediately came to a decision. โGo, of course, we will go! I will find some more seasoned music producers to go together. Oh, right, and the company that is filming the movie, ask them along too. We shall take a good look on that day! Aiya, heaven is really on my side. Quick, play the video again! Although the effect is a little too noisy, it still sounds fantastic!โ
…
Hong Dali slept till noon in a daze and felt quite unhappy.
The entertainment culture in this world was really too poor. It was not an exaggeration to say that if the entertainment service in his previous world was rated 100 marks, the one in this world could only be rated 50 marks. Hong Dali couldnโt find any songs worth listening to at all. Although music had no boundaries, the music that he heard always made him feel vexed as if someone was scratching his insides.
When he wanted to read a novel, the novels in this world were even more intolerable. He had gone and taken a look at the Zhong Dian website that he had bought yesterday. The novels there werenโt even readable… Visually speaking, the novels in this world were more like essays and not the kinds that were moaning about imaginary problems. Rather, they were the type that expressed emotions. The whole passage was filled with beautiful words that described an impressive scene, but they had no storyline or plot. Was this kind of novel readable? Hong Dali slept through the morning thanks to the hypnotizing effect of this stuff. After reading three chapters of the opening of a novel, he had fallen asleep immediately.
When he finally found a novel that was quite interesting, there wasnโt anything left to read after just a while…
Damn it, this is intolerable!
Hong Dali was so angry that he wanted to smash his phone on the floor. Just when he got to an important part, there were no more chapters left. He couldnโt even anticipate the remaining chapters because the author had quit. How was Hong Dali, someone who always viewed squandering as a means to change his lifestyle for the better, supposed to accept this?
Therefore, when his lunch break came, Hong Dali entered his car and directly asked Xiaoyi, โXiaoyi, that Zhong Dian website, most of the novels there arenโt interesting at all. When I finally found one that was acceptable, the author had actually quit halfway. That made me so depressed. Help me find some authors with their own unique writing styles to write some novels with more storylines and plots. Their job is just to write novels full time.โ
โAh?โ Hearing Hong Daliโs words, Ling Xiaoyi was baffled and asked, โStoryline? Shouldnโt novels always be as they are now? I thought they were quite fine when I read them occasionally. You just canโt read too many of them at once. If you do, you will get sleepy.โ
โThatโs exactly what I mean. These arenโt novels but hypnotizing books. I read five different novels and slept for four lessons. They are even more effective than sleeping pills.โ Some of the novels in this world were similar to those light novels from a certain island country in his previous life. Hong Dali lethargically said, โThe type of novel that I want isnโt like this. I want those kinds that, yep, those kinds that are filled with fighting and killing. You glare at me and I beat you up. You scold me with one sentence and I will kill your whole family. This type, are there any?โ
Ling Xiaoyi was almost choked to death by Hong Daliโs words. She looked at him, stupefied, and said, โI… I will try my best… There should be something like that…โ
โIf there arenโt any, find some authors who write in simple language and ask them to write a few such novels for me.โ Hong Dali added, โAnd also, the novel that I found acceptable was called something like โEvil Energy.โ Ask the editor to contact the author. I donโt care what he does, but make sure to get that author to continue writing the story for me to read.โ
Ling Xiaoyi: โAll… all right.โ
โI am bored to the point of dying. Oh, right, make a copy of Sister Nianweiโs songs for me. Her songs are more to my liking.โ Hong Dali leaned against the window. โAnd also, that Turkey Bookstore, whatโs the current situation? Tell me more specifically.โ
โOK.โ Ling Xiaoyi immediately reported. โTurkey Bookstore is currently the largest novel database in Heavenly State. The websiteโs IP site traffic… is roughly 10 times that of Zhong Dian. The number of authors there is also much higher than at Zhong Dian. Currently speaking, with regards to online novels, Turkey Bookstore is dominant. Its position is very stable.โ
Looks like this opponent isnโt a weak one.
Hong Dali asked, โThen, how can we win against them?โ
Ling Xiaoyi thought for a while, then helplessly said, โI am not very knowledgeable about operating a website. Young Master, why donโt we hold a job fair and hire some people to help us manage it?โ
โEn, OK. You decide the timing, and we will hold a job fair then.โ Hong Dali immediately decided.
โOK, Young Master, I got it.โ Ling Xiaoyi carefully asked. โYoung Master, are you really planning to compete directly with Liu Mingcheng?โ
โDo you still need to ask?โ Hong Dali calmly said. โOur relationship isnโt good anyway. We will have to fight each other sooner or later. The one who strikes first will gain the upper hand, right, haha. Thereโs an old saying that is very suitable: those with the means should squander, those without the means should create the means to grab someone to squander with!โ
