The promotional level for a mediocre third-rate singer's new song is actually quite high, and Xiao Zhi also took on a lot of pressure to agree to it.
After all, he felt that these few songs were worthy of such a level.
However, after signing with Xiao Zhi, many music production companies approached Li Chenchan, hoping to secure the rights to a few of his songs.
Unfortunately, they also found out that Li Chenchan's contract had already been given to Star Creation Music Production Company!
In addition to their regret, these people were also quite helpless and made many verbal comments after the factâIf you had signed with our company at the beginning, it would have been like this and that... But these people were just talking, giving themselves a verbal satisfaction. If they were really asked to pay, they might not be able to offer as high a price as they claimed.
Li Chenchan, of course, knew what these people were thinking, and he could not regret itâafter all, he himself was not sold to Star Creation Music Production Company; he just sold the songs he wrote. When he has new songs, he can sell them to others, so there was nothing to worry about.
The holiday after the college entrance exam began.
This was a long holiday.
During the period of waiting for the college entrance exam results, it was a very agonizing time for the candidatesâthis was like a prisoner waiting for the verdict. If the result had already come, whether good or bad, they could only choose to accept it, but before the result came, there was always agony.
The cicadas in Shu chanted louder day by day, and the city was gradually entering the hot summer. Although the climate of Tianfu Province only saw the sun for one or two days out of ten, the bright summer sun still shone on the earth.
On June 17th, the college entrance exam results had not yet come out...
These days, Li Chenchan was at home, quickly copying down "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" from his mind, word for word, onto his notebook. By now, he was almost finished...
At home, Li Chenchan copied books every day, and his parents did not ask him to do anything. He cooked and prepared meals at home, waiting for Li Chaoyong, Yang Yifang, and Li Yuxue to come back and eat.
The peaceful and warm family time gradually passed.
That night, while the family was eating, Li Chaoyong suddenly said in a seemingly casual manner, "Xiaochan, the results are out on the 28th, right?"
Li Chenchan nodded, "Yes, the 28th."
Li Chaoyong hummed and said, "This time... are you confident?"
After asking this question, although Li Chaoyong was still picking up food, his eyes clearly showed his attention.
When Li Chenchan first finished the college entrance exam, Li Chaoyong and Yang Yifang were very concerned about his results, but they were also worried that their son had just gone through such a big exam and was under a lot of pressure, so they held back from asking. Now, they felt that Li Chenchan should have recovered well, so they asked this question.
Li Chenchan pondered for a moment and then said, "Mom and Dad, don't worry, I will get you a top score!"
When Li Chenchan said this, he was full of confidence, which reassured Li Chaoyong and Yang Yifang. Li Yuxue, however, said, "Bro... don't boast too much."
Li Chenchan laughed and scolded, "Little girl, do you dare to bet with me?"
"Sure, what do we bet?"
"Anything!"
Li Chaoyong, however, said in a serious tone, "Xiaochan, are you just trying to comfort us, or do you really have that much confidence?"
"Don't worry," Li Chenchan picked up some food for Li Chaoyong and Yang Yifang, "I will surprise everyone!"
On the 18th, Shi Chuanfeng called, saying that "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" would officially be on the shelves on the 19th!
Li Chenchan nodded, and his mind also became serious.
"Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was his first cultural work in this world that was closely related to his interests. No matter how much confidence he had in this book, and no matter how popular "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was in the previous world, in this life, it still needed to be tested by the people here... If they didn't like it, the book would not have a good market.
After hanging up the phone, Li Chenchan slowly came to terms with it. This matter could only be seen when the time came... Anyway, in this parallel world, his head was full of treasures, and there was no such thing as not having enough to use!
After hanging up the phone, Shi Chuanfeng's heart was also filled with mixed feelings.
He knew that there were many people waiting to see the failure of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty," which was also waiting to see his own failure.
Signing the book at 80 yuan per thousand words not only caused a lot of discussion within the publishing house but also made his superior uncertain, asking him several times how the book was... It was clear that his superior, Wu Gang, did not have a good opinion of the book.
As for Yan Xiaokang, it goes without saying. Whenever he mentioned "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty," he was full of contempt for Shi Chuanfeng, as if the failure of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was a foregone conclusion. The other subordinates were also somewhat sarcastic about this matter, making Shi Chuanfeng grit his teeth!
But even so, he did not treat Li Chenchan badly because of thisâsigning "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was his own choice, and even if he faced others' doubts, it had nothing to do with Li Chenchan.
However, the tide within the publishing house was turbulent.
Yan Xiaokang internally declared, "If the sales of 'Those Things in the Ming Dynasty' do not exceed one thousand copies, I will not let Shi Chuanfeng continue to hold his position!"
Of course, one book could not make Shi Chuanfeng step down, but Yan Xiaokang could very likely use this as a trigger to attack Shi Chuanfeng from multiple angles, causing him to suffer a heavy blow.
After hearing Yan Xiaokang's internal declaration, Shi Chuanfeng felt a deep unease, but he also knew that all his hopes were now on "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty"!
If the book flopped, he would be in trouble!
If the book could become as popular as he imagined, then the more Yan Xiaokang and others mocked before the book was published, the more they would be hurt when it became a hit!
After thinking about these things, Shi Chuanfeng knew that under the current circumstances, he could only wait, and thinking too much would not help.
On June 19th, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was officially released and put on sale through the distribution channels of Rongcheng Baihua Publishing House! From this day on, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" would begin its grand journey!
As a party involved, Shi Chuanfeng was very nervous. He even rubbed his hands, not daring to listen to the sales data of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty."
As for Li Chenchan, although he was the author, he was not too nervous...
