You have to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time; it's impossible to blindly shout about surpassing others from the start, otherwise, you'll only be seen as an impractical dreamer.
The directors at Tianxing Entertainment are a group of relatively down-to-earth and hardworking individuals; being overly ambitious or getting ahead of themselves is simply not possible.
Because no matter how much they get ahead of themselves, can they surpass Su Yu?
It is precisely because of Su Yu's existence that they can devote more effort to refining their works.
After Zhao Xiaolu left, Su Yu met with Dong An, Yang Yi, and Zeng Lingling.
Su Yu's previous statement about releasing an album for Cool Fire Combination was not just a casual remark, but a concrete plan.
"I have a few songs here that I've written for you; take a look first.
As for the remaining songs, Dong An, I'll leave them to you!"
Su Yu said straightforwardly upon meeting the three.
This time, Su Yu meticulously prepared seven songs for Cool Fire Combination: "Lady Shexiang," "sea bed," "The Temptation of My Man," "All Is Love," "Rose Waiting for Love," "Phoenix," and "Legend."
Among them, the first five are classic, high-quality songs from a certain legendary combination.
The sixth song, "Phoenix," and the seventh, "Legend," are Su Yu's truly original works.
After all, Su Yu's abilities in songwriting, composition, and arrangement have reached an extremely high standard, so creating a song is not difficult for him.
It's just that he's been busy with various matters and hasn't had the time.
This time, Su Yu decided to make a bold attempt with Cool Fire Combination.
He firmly believes that once this album is released, Cool Fire Combination's position in the music industry will be as solid as a rock.
Dong An, Yang Yi, and Zeng Lingling listened carefully to each song in turn.
After listening, they couldn't help but sigh, marveling at how precisely Su Yu had grasped Cool Fire Combination's style.
These songs seemed tailor-made for them; they couldn't be more suitable.
Yang Yi and Zeng Lingling's faces barely concealed their excitement and joy.
Just last night, Su Yu proposed releasing an album for them and putting a personal concert on the agenda.
Who would have thought that after just one night, they would receive seven new songs, and the new album's progress would instantly reach 70%? This sudden happiness made them feel as if they were in a dream.
"We will definitely perform these songs well!" After their initial excitement, Yang Yi and Zeng Lingling solemnly promised Su Yu.
They knew this was a rare opportunity and they had to give it their all.
"I will also put my heart into writing the remaining three songs! I'll try to finish them within a month!" Dong An pushed up his glasses, his eyes revealing a surge of drive, as if he was already prepared to work hard.
"Of course, I trust you all.
This time, Dong An, you will be the producer of this album.
Don't be too rushed with the album's production; make sure to refine the work to perfection before releasing it." Su Yu looked at the three in front of him, his eyes filled with trust.
Yang Yi and Zeng Lingling's singing skills are very stable, ranking among the top tier of singers at Tianxing Entertainment.
As for Dong An, ever since the Blue Star Concert, numerous companies from outside have extended olive branches to him, offering conditions that countless lyricists and composers envy.
But Dong An remained unmoved, steadfastly staying at Tianxing Entertainment.
Facing such a promising rising star, Tianxing Entertainment naturally gave corresponding returns; Dong An's contract terms continued to rise, and a few days ago, he even received some virtual shares in Tianxing Entertainment.
Dong An has long since achieved financial freedom and lives a carefree life.
His biggest goal now is to diligently follow in Su Yu's footsteps.
It's important to know that staying at Tianxing Entertainment is undoubtedly the best choice if one wants to catch up with Su Yu.
Dong An is not foolish; he would not give up a broader future development space for a little immediate gain.
...
That evening, the Blue Star version of demi-gods and semi-devils officially premiered in Jinling, Modu, and on Tengfei Video.
Regarding this wuxia TV series, let alone Chinese viewers and netizens, even overseas netizens knew about it!
Who made Su Yu pull off such a bold move at the awards concert?
Zhou Hua's astonishing song, "hard to recite sutras," coupled with the wonderfully exciting opening credits and trailers.
It directly maximized the anticipation.
There was also the "hard to recite sutras" Tribe Challenge activity launched by Tianxing Entertainment, which further elevated the TV series' popularity.
While overseas copyrights were sold to many countries, the copyright fees were by no means low!
This is the confidence of a good work.
Around 7:40 PM, the first two episodes of demi-gods and semi-devils officially aired.
The two satellite TV stations and one video platform that paid high prices for the premiere rights were all closely monitoring the data changes at this time.
The moment the opening theme song "hard to recite sutras" began, this TV series, destined to be extraordinary, raised its curtain!
For book lovers who had read the original novel, they knew the plot.
However, the vast majority of people sitting in front of the TV had not read the novel.
So the opening of the first episode was a narration introducing the background of the TV series: In the Northern Song Dynasty, the situation was turbulent, with foreign Tribes eyeing the Song territory, and the martial arts world was also full of intrigue.
After a brief introduction, the official plot began.
The first episode showed Xixia Marshal Helian Tieshu planning to send troops in three routes to infiltrate the Song Kingdom, attempting to capture Yongle City and then advance directly.
However, Beggar Clan leader Qiao Feng led his Beggar Clan disciples to descend like divine soldiers, and a thrilling ambush battle unfolded.
Audiences were quite familiar with "Guo Jing," so it was novel to see him portraying "Qiao Feng" at this time.
However, this actor named Sun Daqiang had indeed made significant progress in his acting; he had long shed the youthful awkwardness of his "Guo Jing" period.
Moreover, the special effects of this TV series were truly excellent; Qiao Feng was seen using "Dragon Capturing Hand," fighting against many, his powerful palm force and sharp movements chilling to the bone.
This was even of higher standard and quality than some domestic special effects films!
No wonder this TV series took so long to make; Director Liu Xialai was truly dedicated to quality.
In the plot, facing the Four Evils who had defected to the Xixia First Grade Hall, Qiao Feng showed no fear, fully displaying his heroic nature.
The Xixia master Li Yanzong used "Star Shifting" to try and stop him, but still could not withstand Qiao Feng's offensive.
After an intense battle, the Beggar Clan successfully intercepted the treasonous letter, but Deputy Leader Ma Dayuan and Elder Bai were also seriously injured.
Although Qiao Feng was severely wounded, he insisted on covering their retreat, letting his brothers withdraw first, demonstrating profound loyalty.
Returning to the Beggar Clan, everyone discussed the operation, greatly worried about Elder Bai's injuries and their leader's safety.
Meanwhile, Murong Fu of Gusu was still resentful about losing to Qiao Feng at the martial arts conference.
His household retainers reminded him to remember the ancestral teachings of restoring the Great Yan, which finally made Murong Fu feel at ease.
Unconsciously, the first episode finished airing.
Countless viewers and netizens watched it with immense satisfaction.
