BXBX NOVEL Chapter 465: Do Big Things
Chapter 465
Luo Wei seemed to have fallen into a state of autism, not making a sound for days in a row.
Mantou got curious and asked a few questions, but then his phone was discovered by Han Ting and confiscated without even a word, and he was punished to run 20 laps while dragging a big tire...
Gu Beihuai, on the other hand, was very busy, busy to the point of being on the phone or in front of his computer at all times, rarely separating from his augmented reality glasses.
Jie Chou stopped by for a visit, but eventually retreated in defeat at the sight of all the cat hair.
Nan XiangWan was the only one spending luxuriously relaxed and carefree days, with no tasks except for training, just eating, drinking and having fun playing with cats, passing time happily!
But today the system reminded her to pick up a delivery.
The tenth episode of The Singer\'s tasks were complete. Due to the explosive growth of data and number of votes, which was five times that of the second place, Dog System\'s rewards were also generous.
[Task Completed: Ray of Light]
[Congratulations host for winning first place in the tenth episode of The Singer!]
[Congratulations host for obtaining the ReachoutAsiaStart guitar!]
[Note: This guitar is a charity custom model, signed by top musicians from all over the world on it.]
...
[Ding!]
[Triggered Task: Rock n Roll]
[Task Requirement: Host is required to sing a song with the theme of rock n roll on stage at the eleventh episode of The Singer!]
[Task Rewards: To be announced according to final ranking]
Nan XiangWan returned to apartment 2202, the familiar men in black were already waiting at the door, with a big case next to them.
Familiar men in black, familiar fingerprint password.
Nan XiangWan swiftly signed for receipt, and the men in black left via the elevator.
She brought the case back home and opened it to reveal a white guitar lying quietly inside, covered in many signatures that circled around it like musical notes etched onto the guitar.
The Dog System didn\'t spend too many words introducing this guitar, but Nan XiangWan couldn\'t put it down.
The color matched the customized mic given to her by Bei Bei perfectly!
Strumming a few notes casually, Nan XiangWan was intoxicated.
Before she knew it, she was lost in the music, constantly plucking and strumming away.
The electric sounds rang out in the living room of 2202, carrying a feeling of unconstrained freedom.
Gu Beihuai came upstairs in the evening to call Xiao Zhai to eat, and upon entering saw Nan XiangWan immersed in the music of the electric guitar, even forgetting to go to the soundproof music room.
Looking again at the guitar in her hands, Gu Beihuai\'s eyeballs shook...
A guitar valued at 2.7 million USD, equivalent to 17.5 million RMB, not to mention the signatures of top musicians from all over the world on it, just the craftsmanship alone was not something ordinary musicians would dare dream of.
Yet Nan XiangWan was just holding it and practicing like this!
Gu Beihuai felt very complicated at this moment. Since his debut, although he had experienced much, everything had gone pretty smoothly overall, otherwise he wouldn\'t have risen to the ranks of king at such a young age.
Compared to the knife\'s edge days of the past, the entertainment industry was so much better.
On top of that, he was very successful financially, his copyright fees reaching astronomical heights, almost all works he created sold like hot cakes, snatched up at high prices by various platforms.
So Gu Beihuai really had no lack of money, and owned mansions in many places.
But he was still struck speechless.
Because even he couldn\'t purchase this one of a kind guitar in the world!
Given Nan XiangWan\'s personality, and her somewhat greedy way of doing things, although coming from a good family background she didn\'t seem to have much notion of money, basically never spending lavishly.
Let alone buying things, and even less so spending 17.5 million to buy a guitar.
Adding in Nan XiangWan\'s uniquely eccentric way of making friends, she would feel spending effort on socializing was not as good as using the time to sleep and train, so she would not have the connections to obtain this guitar either.
Gu Beihuai easily came to a conclusion, it must be another gift from the Dog System!
Dog System!!!
Finally glancing one more time at Nan XiangWan still immersed in the electric guitar sounds, Gu Beihuai silently left apartment 2202, returning to his own place.
Nan XiangWan continued practicing alone until late into the night, once again discovering music\'s allure, able to make her ignore hunger and keep playing until now.
Not sure if it was feeling gratified, the Dog System uncharacteristically spoke some words of encouragement.
[Hope host can carry on the will of the many musicians on this guitar, and let the power of music flourish, traveling further and further on this path!]
Nan XiangWan didn\'t react, as if she hadn\'t heard it at all. Placing the guitar to the side, she took out her phone and ordered takeout.
How about some crayfish!
[Host! You must not touch musical instruments with hands that have eaten crayfish!]
[Host! Please put away the guitar in its case first!]
[Host!!!]
Nan XiangWan went numb, got up to put away the guitar, listening to the Dog System\'s words, very seriously and carefully protecting the instrument.
Judging by the Dog System\'s nervous attitude, this guitar was extremely valuable!
[Host, don\'t forget about the final episode\'s composition]
Nan XiangWan eating crayfish: "I\'ve written the song already."
The system fell silent, when did it see you write?
Nan XiangWan: "It\'s in my brain."
The main melody of Sword Grave was indeed already completed, including arrangements she also had a complete idea, lyrics had been repeated in her brain more than once, she just hadn\'t organized it.
After eating the crayfish, Nan XiangWan went into the soundproof music studio, busying away for several consecutive hours, completing the song Sword Grave in its entirety.
The next day, she handed over the finished song to Orange Snow to handle the follow up, including preparation for the later MV. As her agent, Orange Snow would follow up on the entire process.
Only after all preparation was complete would official filming commence, it wasn\'t a simple matter.
Her MV this time would be a large scale production!
Feng Kai Ji was busy with the post production and release preparations of the movie Shuddering Starry Skies, while also taking on directing this MV.
This was his second time filming an MV, if not for his excited discussions with Nan XiangWan, he really didn\'t want to shoot MVs for others anymore.
It\'s worth mentioning that the previous Sword Dance he filmed had already been submitted for this year\'s Grammy considerations.
One of the categories was Best Music Video (Director), other ones related to Best Male Singer and composing/songwriting Feng Kai Ji didn\'t know, he only knew the one related to himself was the MV category, and it had entered the process.
The West was very curious about Huaxia\'s ancient style music, Gu Beihuai had opened the door for musical and cultural output to the entire world multiple times, all of which were cross-era significant.
Even if not winning and only being nominated, Feng Kai Ji\'s net worth would still skyrocket, and not just double.
His status would be repositioned, and have considerable influence both domestically and abroad!
This was also the most important reason Feng Kai Ji was willing to take on directing the MV for Sword Grave, Sword Grave could be considered a continuation of Sword Dance.
He wanted to try more, who knows if miracles might occur?
It was commonly acknowledged in the entertainment industry that Nan XiangWan was a BUG!
While everyone was busy to death, even the brick throwers, Bei Bei fans and CP fans had united to do big things.
Nan XiangWan herself took a plane ride that day, headed for the imperial capital.
Accompanying her was Gu Beihuai.
Today, September 3rd, she started school.
