Chapter Forty-Five: Choosing New People

  Ji Xin'an didn't want to talk about those things with him anymore, so she changed the subject. "Song Ge, tell me about your new people in the crowded city."

  "Take a look at these, they're the new recruits I've selected. Memorize their information first, and then I'll take you to listen to their voices." Song Jiangliang accurately pulled out several bound documents from that pile of things, it's unknown how he found them so accurately.

  "Let me listen to what I don't understand about choosing people." Ji Xin'an said, but still took over the materials and looked at them.

  "It's not about choosing someone, but whether the person you choose is useful. It's about going to see if there's anyone whose voice can inspire you and write a song for him." Song Jiangliang was very unkind to her.

  Ji Xin'an couldn't help but admire his vision, among the dozen or so people, there were two or three familiar faces, one of whom would become a huge star N years later. Ji Xin'an suddenly had an idea, perhaps he could let him sing his song ahead of time, it was just a matter of letting him rise to fame earlier, this way wasn't a win-win situation.

  After reading this person's information, others like Ji Xin'an also started to take a closer look and felt that with Song Jiangliang's vision, it should be good too. And after many years, not hearing their names was just a matter of being slightly less lucky. "Song brother, since you've already made up your mind, why bother having so many people audition outside? Isn't that a waste of time?"

  "Who says it's a waste of time, this is for those reporters to see. Look at our company, although small and newly established, yet so many people come to us by name. Isn't this free advertising? And also doing advance promotion for our future singers." Song Jiangliang smiled very slyly.

  "Sly, if those people outside knew that they were just being used as your free publicity tools, they wouldn't even have a chance, and one person's saliva could drown you." Ji Xin'an really didn't think he would come up with such a tactic, and he truly wondered if the next Super Girl would be his idea.

  "I'm doing this for their own good, to make them realize the cruelty of reality. You say a group of half-grown kids are not studying hard and instead want to become stars? Being a star is not that easy." Song Jiangliang didn't feel ashamed at all by her evaluation, but rather had an expression like those so-called 'experts' in later generations.

  "What if there are really excellent ones inside, wouldn't you miss out? We should at least give them a chance." Ji Xin'an was indeed sympathetic to those people below, although among them were the kind of people Song Jiangliang mentioned who didn't understand anything and came here with pipe dreams. But surely there were also people who had been frustrated countless times in pursuit of their own dreams yet still hadn't given up. Ji Xin'an didn't want his company to be the last straw on their backs.

  Song Jiang thought for a moment, "Alright, I'll listen to you. I'll have someone pay attention. If there really is talent, we definitely won't let it go."

  Ji Xin'an got what he wanted and stopped talking, then went with Song Jiangliang to the company's newly built recording studio.

  After listening to the voices of all the people on the material, she felt that Song Jiangliang's vision was really unparalleled. Not to mention those three familiar ones, even the voices she had never seen before were all impressive, and they were still in different styles. Ji Xin'an believed that if given the opportunity, they should all be able to become good singers.

  "How does it feel?" After listening, Song Jiangliang turned his head towards Ji Xin'an.

  "They're all pretty good, but it's impossible to promote all of them at once, which ones are the focus for cultivation?" Ji Xin'an gave a thumbs up.

  "Still observing, how about writing a song for the company's newcomer?" Song Jiangliang still didn't give up on his little idea, but it couldn't be blamed on him, Ji Xin'an's song quality was absolutely top-notch, any one of them could make a first-line singer.

  "Alright, but I'll only write one song and it has to be sung by the person I specify." Ji Xin'an was ready to bring out that person's hit single ahead of time, others couldn't care less.

  "Which one do you want?" Song Jiangliang turned his head to look at the dozen or so people in the recording studio, wondering who had caught Ji Xianan's eye.

  "Like Bo Nan (there will be many fictional celebrities in this book later, don't mind them too much)," Zixin An pointed to a handsome man who had been sitting in the corner all along.

  "How could our peace of mind be captivated by a handsome guy?" Song Jiangliang was really surprised.

  "I have a song here that's quite suitable for him to sing." Ji Xin'an smiled without explaining anything.

  "It seems we have to release Bo Nan's album first." Song Jiangliang smiled, but actually he thought another girl was more promising, however now they had to change the plan.

  "That's your problem, I'm just responsible for writing songs." Ji Xin'an smiled and glanced at him.

  "This is already the greatest support for me." The two of them said as they left the recording studio.

  A few days later, Ji Xin'an went to the company to deliver a song. Song Jiang laughed and pulled Ji Xin'an, "An An, it's good that I listened to you at first, otherwise I would have really missed it."

  "What's gotten into you?" Ji Xin'an was left bewildered by him.

  "It was among the group of people who signed up last time that we found a very promising newcomer. I'll take you to hear her, this person I can guarantee, as long as our promotion is in place, will definitely be a top-notch figure in the future." Song Jiangliang said, pulling her out while speaking.

  Another time in the recording studio, but this time it's not a live performance. The person Song Jiangliang was talking about might not be there, so he played a recording for her to listen to.

  Ji Xin'an listened carefully and felt that this voice seemed familiar, but she didn't dare to confirm it. However, her voice was really good.

  "She's here, do you still want to hear her singing skills live?" Song Jiangliang pulled down the serious-looking Ji Xin'an.

  Ji Xin'an turned her head to look in the direction he was pointing, and found that it was indeed the person she had thought of, Yin Si-si. Although she didn't become a top-notch figure like Song Jiang-liang said later on, at least she became very famous. "No need, just listening to the recording is enough."

  At this time, Yin Sisi had already walked to the front of the two people, looked at Ji Xin'an with a puzzled expression, and lightly laughed as she greeted Song Jiangliang. "Director Song."

  Song Jiang nodded and smiled, "An An, this is Yin Si Si." Then he wanted to introduce Ji Xin An, but didn't know how to say it.

  "Hello, I'm Ji Xin'an. Our family is a partner with Song Ge in this company, and I'm sort of a representative of the shareholders."

  "Hello." Yin Sisi felt a sense of relief and then politely shook hands with her.

  Ji Xin'an nodded inwardly at her performance, and after hearing the introduction of herself, she did not show any contempt for the incompetent rich second generation, nor did she show any flattery towards the company's high-level executives, being neither humble nor arrogant, which was very much to Ji Xin'an's taste.

  "Yesterday we have signed a contract with Yin Sisi, now she is receiving training in various aspects of the company, just waiting for the right time to release her." Song Jiangliang explained.

  Ji Xin'an nodded slightly, knowing what Song Jiangliang wanted to say to her, but with Yin Sisi present, she couldn't respond well, so she just smiled and nodded.

  After returning, he also wrote out Yin Sisi's hit song and handed it over to Song Jiangliang. His actions were indeed swift, and within a month, the albums of both of them were recorded and ready for release.

  Ji Xin'an finally relaxed and became a boss who could easily delegate tasks.

  When Qing Xian had some free time, she found that time really flew by quickly. Before she knew it, another semester was about to pass, and the final exams were already counting down.
