Chapter 534: Well Written, But Don't Write Anymore
"How did you know that I'm acquainted with Miss Wen Wan?"
Chen Fan wondered what kind of answer Yan Qing would give.
Perhaps he had investigated him, or maybe he already knew some information about him from school.
But the answer Yan Qing gave stunned Chen Fan on the spot.
"Because Miss Wen Wan told me."
Chen Fan: "..."
He had considered several possibilities, but hadn't expected such a simple answer.
It turned out that from beginning to end, Yan Qing hadn't investigated him in detail, he had only heard it from Wen Wan.
Yan Qing looked at Chen Fan, showing no intention of hiding anything.
"Miss Wen Wan said that she and you are very good friends, and also mentioned that you have a good relationship with Commoner."
"Finally, she said to ask for your opinion and left the decision to you."
Yan Qing changed his posture, "This is what I think, her meaning might be that if you personally invite her, she would agree."
This time, Chen Fan was truly shocked.
He didn't expect Wen Wan to play such a move.
This didn't seem like her character at all.
Leaving the decision to him, and saying she would come back if he asked her to.
This... wasn't the joke a bit too big?
Chen Fan could even imagine Wen Wan's slightly upturned lips after saying these words to Yan Qing on the phone.
Chen Fan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
After becoming famous, this woman's personality seemed to have become much more lively.
She actually pushed him to the front as a shield.
She had politely refused Yan Qing's request while giving Chen Fan a chance to connect with this Young Master Yan.
Regardless of Wen Wan's intentions, at this moment, Chen Fan just wanted to call her immediately and ask what she was thinking.
Seeing Chen Fan silent for a while, Yan Qing couldn't help but speak with a smile.
"How about it? You're not going to refuse, are you?"
Chen Fan snapped out of his thoughts, looked at Yan Qing and suddenly smiled.
"She really said that to you?"
Yan Qing nodded: "There's no need for me to lie about this kind of thing."
Chen Fan continued to ask: "Can I ask how many people are in your band currently?"
Yan Qing held up one hand.
"Including me, there are 5 in total. A keyboardist, a drummer, a guitarist, and two bassists."
"The guitarist is our lead vocalist, though occasionally I also serve as a vocalist."
Chen Fan continued to ask: "So what exactly are you thinking? To have Wen Wan join you? Or to have her perform on stage with your band?"
"She's an actress now, aren't you targeting the wrong person?"
Yan Qing smiled and waved his hand.
"You've misunderstood."
"We're not asking her to lead us on stage to perform, or to join our band, but to write a song for our band."
Chen Fan: "..."
This was the third time Chen Fan was dumbfounded.
Because he found that he couldn't figure out this guy's train of thought at all.
However, Yan Qing quickly provided an answer.
It turned out that their band had been established for almost a year, and they had participated in several performances, big and small, but they still hadn't made any splash, and hardly anyone knew of their band's existence.
That's why Yan Qing had set his sights on Wen Wan.
Because every song Commoner had released so far was a hit.
They wanted Wen Wan to help write a song, which they would buy and perform themselves.
Chen Fan couldn't help but ask: "How's the singing level of your band's lead vocalist?"
Yan Qing thought for a moment, "If you're asking about me, I can only say I'm a bit better than the average person, about KTV singer level."
"But our other lead vocalist, her skills are quite good, and she sings well."
Chen Fan said: "If the singing level isn't a problem, why don't you just sing existing hit songs, why do you need to create a new song?"
Yan Qing suddenly showed a bitter smile.
"The key problem lies here, our lead vocalist doesn't like singing other people's songs, her dream is to be an original singer-songwriter."
"Since our band was formed, the several songs we've sung were all written by her."
Chen Fan was a bit surprised: "Aren't you the band leader?"
Yan Qing smiled and shook his head: "No. The leader is someone else."
Chen Fan asked again: "Is it a woman?"
Yan Qing nodded, without further explanation.
Chen Fan pondered for two seconds.
It wasn't strange that the band leader and lead vocalist was a woman, what was strange was that Yan Qing was willing to follow her orders.
This was a bit odd.
Could it be...
Chen Fan's expression towards Yan Qing became a bit peculiar.
Damn!
Could it be that he's so enthusiastic and busy for the sake of chasing a girl?
These rich second generation and official second generation kids just love doing this kind of thing.
Do something romantic and then win over the target in one go.
Yan Qing felt a bit uncomfortable under Chen Fan's gaze. He had no idea that Chen Fan's thoughts had already wandered so far.
After a few seconds of silence, Chen Fan suddenly spoke.
"Well... can I listen to your band's songs?"
"That's no problem." Yan Qing was quite forthright.
"But you have to promise to put in a good word for me with Miss Wen Wan."
Chen Fan didn't give a direct answer, but vaguely said: "I should at least see your band's level first."
"If it's a complete mess, especially if the lead vocalist has a terrible voice, even if we give you a timeless classic song, you still won't become popular."
Yan Qing had a good temper and didn't get angry. He smiled and pointed at Chen Fan.
"I'll pretend I didn't hear that, but you'd better not let our band leader hear it, otherwise tonight you might end up in a bag at the bottom of the sea feeding the fish."
Chen Fan was startled: "That dramatic?"
Yan Qing smiled and shrugged.
"It's really not an exaggeration."
Without further explanation, he stood up and gestured to Chen Fan.
"Come with me."
Saying this, he led Chen Fan through the noisy dance floor to a rest room on the second floor.
Closing the door, the clamor was immediately shut out.
Yan Qing walked to a cabinet nearby, pulled open one of the drawers, took out something, walked over and handed it to Chen Fan.
"This has recordings of our band's performances, have a listen."
Chen Fan looked at it, and his eyes immediately lit up.
Wow! An MP3 player.
It's not easy to buy one of these these days.
Putting on the headphones, Chen Fan pressed the play button. The first song was called 《Jasmine Blooming》.
After silently listening to the first song, Chen Fan started to listen to the second one.
Yan Qing didn't rush him, he walked to the sofa nearby and sat down, took out a can of beer from the ice box next to him, and started drinking by himself.
Chen Fan listened to four songs in a row before finally raising his head and taking off the headphones.
"How was it?"
Yan Qing asked with anticipation on his face.
Chen Fan thought for a moment and gave an evaluation.
"The band's performance level is average, the lead vocalist's voice is quite distinctive."
Yan Qing had waited expectantly for a long time, only to find that Chen Fan actually stopped talking.
"Is that all?"
"Ah!"
"No... so what do you think of these original songs we wrote?"
"Our band leader put a lot of effort into writing these."
Chen Fan held back for a long time, and finally squeezed out a sentence.
"Well written, but you'd better not write anymore in the future."
