Chapter 254 Song Conference
Mu Bai glanced at Gu Boying: "Why are you so hypocritical?"

Gu Boying curled her lips: "You talked softly to the little girl just now, why are you so hard talking to me?"

Mu Bai shook his head helplessly: "Don't confuse the concept, why am I so stubborn?"

"Look, look, your tone is very bad now."

Mu Bai wisely ended the topic quickly: "Why aren't you staying in the studio anymore?"

"It's boring to watch everyone drawing here and there all the time." Gu Boying looked bored, as if she was a child who has not found a playmate.

"Wait a little longer," Mu Bai comforted, "I'll go out with you when the rain stops."

While talking, he put the easel away in a corner.

"I'm here to say goodbye to you." Gu Boying sat on the chair and raised her legs: "I have to catch up with the announcement the day after tomorrow. It's raining today and tomorrow, so it's meaningless to stay here."

This was a bit beyond Mu Bai's expectation, he sat in front of Gu Boying: "That's a pity."

"It's a pity, what a pity?" Gu Boying said with a smile: "I will come again in two days, I don't believe it, when the time comes, it will rain?"

"Okay, I'm always waiting for you, Miss Gu."

Gu Boying suddenly sighed: "I'm not willing to give in! It has over 600 million downloads, and it's actually No. 4!"

As soon as Gu Boying came to the resort, Mu Bai felt that Elder Sister Gu seemed a little out of sorts.

However, Gu Boying has always acted casually, and Mu Bai really did not expect that Gu Boying would care about this ranking.

This time, the number of downloads of "Last Summer" exceeded Mu Bai's expectations, and it actually increased the [Music Appreciation Value], which had been sluggish for a long time, by more than 100 million.

If this result were normal, it would be easy to get second place, but there were so many good songs in July that we only got fourth place.

Mu Bai comforted: "Nine out of ten unsatisfactory things, don't take it to heart, it's only July, there are still opportunities in the future!"

"Hey, I'm sorry for your good song! You were able to get the top three results, but the result is not very good." Gu Boying said a little bit wronged: "This is a waste of your talent."

The appearance of Senior Sister Gu made Mu Bai feel a little bit distressed. He said softly, "Don't worry, we are full of talent, and we are not afraid of wasting it. Besides, using your talent on you can't be called a waste."

Gu Boying immediately felt warm in his heart, but he also realized that what he said just now was a bit hypocritical and did not suit his temperament.

She quickly changed the subject: "I have something to inform you when I come to the resort. We are invited to participate in the song conference held in Qin State at the end of July. You will have to spare four to five days for that time."

Mu Bai pondered for a while: "At that time, the storyboard will be finished, I should have time."

Then he asked, "What preparations do I need?"

"Prepare one or two new songs," Gu Boying said, "Although under normal circumstances, no new songs will be released in the song contest.

"However, there will be singers from Jin and Chu countries participating. According to the past conventions of the conference, there will be some challenges or exchanges between us and singers from enemy countries.

"Generally speaking, new songs are not used to compete, but there are exceptions. For example, if you meet your previous opponent in the conference, the two sides will come and go and challenge you many times.

"Maybe there will be new songs, and if one party uses new songs, the other party must also use new songs, otherwise it will be tantamount to defeat."

Mu Bai nodded: "Then do you have any rivals in the enemy country?"

"I don't have it, but I have a voice." Gu Boying said: "So to be on the safe side, I have to prepare a new song."

"Okay, no problem." Mu Bai agreed very quickly.

He already had one chance to "play songs on demand", and his "total appreciation value" reached about 100 million. He had at least three chances to "play random songs", which was enough.

Mu Bai asked again: "Where is this conference held?"

"It's a ferry."

"Where? Chengdu?"

Gu Boying corrected: "Qin's inland port is a ferry!"

"Oh, when I heard this place name, I suddenly had inspiration." Mu Baixin said, "You can definitely change 'Chengdu' to 'Chengdu'!"

Gu Boying smiled and shook his head: "Your inspiration is too strange, isn't it?"

Mu Bai smiled "hehe": "Can you tell me why there is a song conference?"

In fact, Mu Bai has always been unable to understand that every country has a "National Ranking" and a "New Ranking".

It's like having a "song conference" every month. Is there any need to organize it?

"How did you learn the history of music?" Gu Boying leaned on the back of the chair: "The song conference has a long history, and the most famous song conference in history is Jin Wengong's 'Victorious Conference'.

“It was a period of disputes between princes, with Jin and Chu fighting for hegemony and years of civil war.

"I don't remember the specific year, but I remember that it was the year Jin Wengong succeeded to the throne. There was a coup d'état in Jin, and internal friction was serious.

"Chu State took the opportunity to attack, just when Jin State was struggling to deal with it, Duke Wen of Jin thought of a clever plan.

"He invited the invading scholars of the state of Chu to participate in the Song Contest of the state of Jin.

"We all know that Jin Wengong is a master of ancient music..."

"Ah?" This Mu Bai really doesn't know, the "Jin Wengong" in his impression is the one who burned Mianshan.

Seeing that Gu Boying looked at him like he was looking at an alien, he hurriedly said: "I've lost my mind, you, you continue."

Gu Boying cleared her throat and continued: At the song conference in Jin State, Duke Wen of Jin showed many high-quality songs.

"The scholars of the state of Chu originally thought that the state of Jin was weak, but when they heard the songs of Duke Wen of Jin, they knew that the strength of the state of Jin was not weakened.

"That's why after the song conference, the scholars of Chu State on the Jin-Chu border all withdrew."

Mu Bai nodded: "This story really is very 'Warring States'."

The era of disputes between princes was similar to the Warring States era in Mu Bai's impression, and many popular stories happened.

Gu Boying said again: "The current song conferences are similar to the ancient ones. They are generally used to deter the enemy, or to show their own strength and prevent the enemy from acting rashly."

"Military exercise!" Mu Bai found an appropriate adjective in his heart.

He understood right away: "So some time ago, Qin was defeated a little, so I used this song conference to show off my 'muscles'."

Gu Boying nodded happily, as if he was a teacher who successfully spread knowledge to students: "That's right, that's the truth."

Let's talk about it, it's lunch time.

First, the chefs brought the food to the table, and soon the students came to the restaurant in twos and threes to eat.

Gu Boying ate lunch, and in the afternoon, she left the resort as she said.

It's just that on the second day, the rain was much lighter, and it became intermittent.

The sky was still covered with dark clouds, which blocked the hot summer sun, and the cool sea breeze took the opportunity to linger in the resort.

This is a good weather for walking. Many tourists walk around the resort with umbrellas to breathe the fresh air and feel the coolness of summer.

After another day, the sky was almost clear, and the tourists started to play as they wanted.

Mu Bai didn't dare to tell Gu Boying about this, fearing that Senior Sister Gu would lose her temper.

After these two days of recuperation, Mu Bai's cold finally healed, and he immediately started running in the morning.

If Mu Bai is really only in his twenties, then getting up early to run is an impossible plan for him. He will have too many reasons to postpone the plan of running until "tomorrow".

But Mu Bai knows the importance of the body, and he has already passed the age of lack of willpower, so he has a strong execution ability, and he will do it when he thinks about it.

Once the weather turned sunny, it started to heat up. Mu Bai ran around and broke out in a stinky sweat.

Although he felt very tired when he just finished running, he felt extra refreshed after taking a shower.

This gave him greater motivation to continue this good habit.

On the day Mu Bai started running, members of Bai Xiaoqi's literature team came to the resort for vacation.

Among the groups Mu Bai established at the beginning of the studio, only the literature group has not expanded, and it still has the same seven people.

For Guofeng Studio, which is mainly engaged in painting business, so many literary editors are enough.

The current literary group is transitioning to a literary editing group. With the increasing number of active users of Guofeng.com and the sales of Jiang Zixuan’s novels on the website are very good, more and more writers are seeking cooperation from Guofeng.com .

Mu Bai asked Bai Xiaoqi to take good care of it, and would rather be short than excessive, and publish at most three novels a month.

At the same time, Mu Bai also suggested that Bai Xiaoqi can find some excellent low-level authors and try to serialize.

Along with Bai Xiaoqi's group, there were two department heads, Hao Wenzhong and Bai Peishan.

The two department heads mainly came to observe the production progress of the film. In the school, many teachers who joined the production team wanted to supervise Mu Bai's work.

However, Mu Bai refused the visit of the teachers of the production team on the grounds that the board and lodging could not be guaranteed, and the transportation was inconvenient due to the typhoon.

This made the teachers have some opinions, thinking that Mu Bai did not take the authority of producer seriously.

After a series of haggling on the phone, Mu Bai finally agreed to let only two department heads who are close to him come to visit for the time being.

In fact, Mu Bai really didn't pay attention to the academy's supervisory team, he and Xiao Minghui had negotiated on the phone long ago, the real supervisor was Xiao Minghui's secretary.

After all, they are the investors, and the producer should be dispatched by Xiao Minghui.

The academy's supervisory team is naturally just a decoration, and Mu Bai also told Xiao Minghui that he is afraid of being seized.

Xiao Minghui expressed his support, so he did not disclose the producer he sent.

Hao Wenzhong and Bai Peishan, the two deans of the department, Mu Bai was quite convinced, and personally explained to them: "Two deans, please look, these background designs are all scenes we took around the resort.

"Look at this, you two. This is a bus stop at the foot of the mountain. One side of the road is the sea, and the other side is a coconut forest. The scenery is very good. I suggest the two directors to go there and have a look."

　Thank you for the recommendation ticket of [Eternal Heart]
