Nowadays, the internet is developed, and we've entered an era of mass attention. Even old songs used in short videos can easily become popular again.
Luckily, Xu Lin is not pursuing a career as a singer; otherwise, he might be too excited to sleep.
Because with his current situation, he's definitely starting at the peak and could debut right away without any issues.
Not to mention he's handsome and tall.
You know, in the entertainment industry, there are very few male stars who are both handsome and tall. Add some more criteria like good singing voice and excellent vocal skills, and they're truly rare. Back in the day, Brother Qian was one of them, but besides him, it seems like there's no one else.
Before Brother Qian was taken down, he was really at the top, unmatched.
If Xu Lin were to enter the entertainment industry now, wouldn't those girls go crazy?
First, Xu Lin's looks are top-notch, and there are few men in the entertainment industry who can compare to him.
Second, Xu Lin is 1.87 meters tall, which is also rare in the entertainment industry. Many stars, regardless of gender, often report their height inaccurately. Xu Lin's height is without shoes.
Third, Xu Lin has a distinctive, charming yet masculine aura that stands out miles from the crowd of effeminate men. If he were to have a buff, Xu Lin could go into acting as the true dragon emperor.
Fourth, Xu Lin's singing, composing, and songwriting abilities are very nice, making his professional skills excellent.
Xu Lin feels he totally has the potential to become the most popular in the entertainment industry, even the top in East Asia, starting already at this level.
But Xu Lin won't debut.
"It's such a waste that someone like me isn't entering the entertainment industry!"
Xu Lin can only feel sorry for the Chinese entertainment industry. In today's era dominated by the ugly sons of capitalists and effeminate men, losing a man like Xu Lin is such a misfortune!
At this moment, Xu Lin opened Chi Linyue's chat interface; she had messaged earlier, but Xu Lin hadn't replied.
Upon entering, it turns out Chi Linyue said his singing is great.
Xu Lin replied: "Do you want me to sing a song for you?"
"How will you sing?"
Chi Linyue quickly responded.
"Video call then, or if it's inconvenient, I can just make a voice call."
Bzz bzz...
Chi Linyue's video call came in.
Xu Lin clicked to connect, and soon saw Chi Linyue, who was wearing a simple pajama.
Hmm, you can only see a portion of her upper body.
Chi Linyue smiled: "Go ahead and sing, I'm listening."
"Let me get my guitar first."
Xu Lin turned around to get his guitar, soon came back, and sat there.
"Where is this place?"
"A rental, I rented it a while ago."
"Where's your girlfriend?"
"At school."
"That's fine then."
"I'm about to start singing."
"Okay, okay."
Chi Linyue was waiting while Xu Lin cleared his throat, prepared his emotions, and started playing the guitar and singing.
Xu Lin's voice belongs to the realm of heavenly sounds, enhanced by outstanding vocal skills like having a cheat code, so it sounds very enchanting.
Chi Linyue couldn't help being enchanted as well, and because the song is emotional, Chi Linyue even had a delayed tear-wiping moment.
The song came to an end.
"You could debut!"
She smiled.
"That won't do. With my level — great looks, height, and professional skills — I could easily become Asia's top star, making life difficult for those effeminate men in East Asia."
"Hahaha..."
Chi Linyue was amused by Xu Lin's humor.
Finally, she asked, "Now that I see your song is very popular, what's your plan next?"
Xu Lin shared his thoughts: "I'll make a name for myself in the industry first. Later, I plan to take the route of composing lyrics and selling song copyrights. Hmm... Let me think. For example, I've already applied for copyright for this song. In terms of music copyright, there's something called performance rights; if someone wants to use it commercially for singing, they need to pay me copyright fees. That's one channel for development, but the premise is that someone wants my songs. Additionally, if I write songs for others, they'll need to pay me a fee, and if the song becomes popular, since I'll have signed a contract beforehand, the subsequent profits must be shared with me. Currently, I'm considering this route, but we'll see how it goes in practice."
Xu Lin's current task is to come up with ten popular songs within a year. Of course, these ten songs are meant to make money, and besides task rewards, Xu Lin can't miss out on the revenues from the songs.
These are his labor results!
"As you say, it seems like you'll need someone to manage the copyrights later, and you won't have to deal with all the miscellaneous stuff yourself; you can be the boss who only gives orders."
"Yeah, if development goes well, I could consider that."
The two chatted for twenty-something minutes, then ended the conversation.
Speaking of copyright, Xu Lin thought, I wonder if anyone has come to buy his copyrights yet?
Xu Lin opened the comment section on NetEase Cloud Music to check; now that a day had passed, the number of comments exceeded thirty thousand, Xu Lin skimmed for several minutes and most comments were people saying it sounds good or sharing their emo life stories, which weren't interesting to read.
Xu Lin doesn't pay attention to these because he's not debuting, so there's no point in reading them.
What he's focused on now is whether anyone wants his copyrights.
"I need a breakthrough, a way to get into writing and composing circle first!"
What's happening over at TikTok?
Previously, many media companies wanted to sign Xu Lin, but Xu Lin had turned off his private messages.
