Chapter 43: strategizing

Chapter 43 Planning

 “Xiaohei Xiaohei, you are amazing!”

As "Moonlight" rushed to second place on the season list, Lin Xi, who had been staring at the list, couldn't help but call his younger brother: "It's already second place. If Zhou Hanjin hadn't suddenly put in effort, there was hope for first place! "

 “There’s no hope now?”

Lin Zhibai frowned slightly, not that he really wanted revenge or anything, but this month’s system task required him to get first place in the season rankings.

"Hard to say."

Lin Xi pondered: "There are still twenty days left in this month, and there will definitely be a long tug-of-war ahead. Our data is rising, and the data of Zhou Hanjin's song is also rising. The influence of the king of singers is still very scary. "

 Finished.

Lin Xi smiled and said: "Regardless of whether we can take first place in the end, our current performance is already very high. I just inquired that the current department performance of the Thirteenth Department is tenth, and this is all due to you! "

"That's good."

Lin Zhibai heard her sister mention that the twenty music departments of Shinhwa Entertainment would be reorganized into ten, and the top ten departments would not need to be abolished.

 “Sister is going to be promoted!”

Lin Xi’s tone was full of joy.

Lin Zhibai also smiled. Helping his sister get promoted at Shinhwa Entertainment was the first step in his plan to seize the family property. So far, it seems to be going relatively smoothly.

 Shortly after hanging up the phone.

 Brother Lin Shengtian also called.

Lin Shengtian smiled and said: "I didn't expect that our family would have a composing genius. Today, people in our department are discussing your song. When I go back to work on a new show, I might have to ask someone to help me write some music."

 “Have you not made a new program yet?”

Lin Zhibai asked casually without leaving any trace.

Lin Shengtian sighed: "I haven't come across any good programs yet. Let's wait for a while. Variety shows need to be creative. The company is like a quagmire. Now I have started to look for them outside the company..."

 There was a pause.

Lin Shengtian smiled again and said: "Don't worry about me. Even though I have been unhappy in the past two years, I have produced several popular variety shows in the past few years. This thing is different from your song writing. As long as you have enough sense of smell and With your vision, you will be able to make a comeback sooner or later.”

"It will be fine."

Lin Zhibai comforted his brother without directly saying that he had a plan in hand.

Similar to the fact that the script of "Rush" cannot be given directly to dad;

 Lin Zhibai’s “I Am a Singer” variety show planning project cannot be handed over directly to his brother.

Lin Zhibai wants to start a new business.

 To start a new business, you need to have leverage.

 And this bargaining chip is not just money.

Lin Zhibai and the three major companies are incomparable in terms of financial resources.

Even if Lin Zhibai worked hard to make money by writing songs and books, that little money would always be just a drop in the bucket compared to Shinhwa or even the Big Three.

What should we do?

The only way is to use the script as a bargaining chip, the variety show plan as a bargaining chip, or even music and novels as a bargaining chip, and the three major pulls.

 One day.

Lin Zhibai will use these chips to become a new capital outside the three major companies!

If you want to be the true master of mythology, an artist can only work part-time. Lin Zhibai’s true main job is self-evident.

 “Yeah, it’ll be fine.”

Lin Shengtian smiled: "If there's nothing else to do, I'll hang up first. Please pay attention to your health."

"Um."

Lin Zhibai hung up the phone, and then took the initiative to call his parents to express concern.

 While talking to my dad on the phone.

Lin Zhibai suddenly remembered something and asked, "Dad, do you know Lin Shouzhuo?"

 “I know you!”

Dad smiled and said: "It must be the boy who sang "Xiaochou". When I saw this singer's name, I felt familiar. Later, I remembered that his father was ill and hospitalized and borrowed some money from me."

 “That’s it, it’s quite a coincidence.”

"It's quite a coincidence. This kid is very well-behaved and has some connections with our family. I thought I would help if I could, but I didn't expect that he was the co-singer you chose for your debut song."

"Um."

I chatted with my dad for a while before hanging up the phone.

 …

 After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhibai's eyes flashed slightly, wondering what he was thinking about.

 “Crimson.”

Lin Zhibai suddenly said: "If you want to improve your skill points, can you only go through system tasks?"

 Hong Kong responded quickly: "Of course that's not the case. The core function of skill points is to help the host break the limit of talent."

 “The upper limit of talent?”

“Take the piano as an example. The host can continuously improve his piano skills through learning, but after reaching a certain level, the host cannot continue to improve. This is a limitation of talent, but skill points can help the host to forcibly improve and break the ceiling of talent.”

"I see."

Lin Zhibai said: "Look at the current values."

  唰.

A simple panel appeared in front of Lin Zhibai.

  【Piano: 48+】

ˆ【Guitar: 46+】

  【Painting: 35+】

ˆ【Calligraphy: 30+】

ˆ【Vocal: 11+】

 【Note: The host currently has 4 skill points. 】

Lin Zhibai narrowed his eyes slightly. He currently mastered five arts.

Lin Zhibai is not deeply involved in most of these art types, and there is obviously room for further improvement.

Should I find a teacher to learn from?

 According to the meaning of the system, the core function of skill points is to help you break the upper limit of your talent. There is no need to rush to use them now.

If you want to find a teacher, which talent should you improve first?

Lin Zhibai glanced at the piano and guitar, feeling that even if he learned these two things, they would not be of much use in a short time. Besides, the basic values ​​​​are not low, and there is really not much room for improvement. He has to invest a lot of energy. OK.

 Painting?

 This can be considered. However, Lin Zhibai doesn’t have any paintings at present, so he can put them aside for a while.

 Calligraphy?

 There is no need to consider this.

 Calligraphers want to become famous, but it is too slow. The water in this type of art industry is relatively deep.

finally.

Lin Zhibai’s eyes stayed on the vocal column.

 Sure enough, this is the most appropriate, because the current basic data of vocal music is very low, which means that Lin Zhibai has the greatest room for improvement.

at the same time.

 After vocal improvement.

Lin Zhibai can write his own songs and sing them himself.

As for why the basic value of vocal music is so low, the reason is actually very simple. Lin Zhibai himself knows it well. The main reason is that he is a bit tone-deaf.

certainly.

  It is not congenital.

Congenital tone deafness has no concept of high and low notes. Even after listening to two simple notes, it is impossible to tell which one is higher and which one is lower. The popular term for this condition is "agesia". It is a physiological defect and is basically hopeless. Unless the system helps.

 The other kind is acquired.

Lin Zhibai is an acquired talent.

Although he is tone-deaf, Lin Zhibai is self-aware and has specifically checked the information. This situation can be adjusted completely. It is just that when singing, he can't find the pitch. It will be much better to find a teacher to study for a period of time.

Thinking of this.

Lin Zhibai made a decision in his heart.

 Find a professional vocal teacher, learn how to sing, and increase your vocal performance. When it becomes difficult to continue improving, you can consider using skill points to compete directly!

Lin Zhibai is a pragmatist.

 Vocal music is currently the most practical skill for Lin Zhibai.

 After having a certain foundation in vocal music, which is what we often call singing skills, Lin Zhibai will have a choice when he gets good songs from the system in the future.

 …

Lin Zhibai is very motivated.

The first step is to decide to learn vocal music, and the second step is to decide to implement the plan.

Finding a vocal teacher is not difficult, Shinhwa’s vocal teacher is extremely professional.

But Lin Zhibai had other ideas, involving some secrets, and he hoped to find someone completely trustworthy.

 Zhang Xiyang?

Or Lin Shouzhuo?

Lin Zhibai currently trusts these two.

He asked himself whether he could judge people accurately, and these two people should be fine.

 As professional singers, these two are definitely more than enough to teach themselves.

 “Lin Shouzhuo.”

Lin Zhibai finally decided to ask Lin Shouzhuo to teach him how to sing.

 First of all, Lin Shouzhuo was completely promoted by Lin Zhibai, and he knew his roots even more clearly;

 Secondly, Lin Shouzhuo and Lin Zhibai are related to each other, as well as their father’s relationship...

 Think of this.

Lin Zhibai called Lin Shouzhuo directly.

Lin Shouzhuo quickly answered the phone, and his voice was very surprising, rising an octave:

 “Uncle!”

 “I have something to ask you for help with.”

Lin Zhibai said that he wanted to learn to sing, "If you don't have time, I will find someone else."

"no problem!"

Lin Shouzhuo agreed wholeheartedly. Regarding his uncle's affairs, he must have time even if he doesn't have time!

He was quite excited and said: "I used to think that if I couldn't make a name for myself in the singing world, I would become a vocal teacher. So I didn't debut in the first two years and even took the music teacher certificate exam!"

 “That’s just right.”

Lin Zhibai felt that he had found the right person, so he made an appointment with him for class.

After making an appointment, Lin Shouzhuo asked curiously: "Uncle wants to learn to sing. Is he considering writing songs and singing them himself in the future?"

 “Bracelet.”

Lin Zhibai suddenly said seriously: "I hope you won't tell anyone about the fact that I want to learn to sing."

 Want to keep it a secret?

Lin Shouzhuo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Uncle, don't worry, I have a strict mouth, and I won't say anything until I die!"

"good."

Lin Zhibai hung up the phone.

It wouldn't be a big deal if he was discovered about learning to sing, but Lin Zhibai was cautious by nature and wanted to ensure that no traces were left as much as possible.

 In fact.

Even if Lin Zhibai sings songs he writes in the future, he will not debut as a singer in Shinhwa. This is still an external plan.

 In other words:

This will also be one of his future bargaining chips. It is related to the fight for family property. It is an additional plan that came out of nowhere. Lin Zhibai did not consider this aspect before, but only recently realized that this is also a good way.

 “I’m so busy.”

Lin Zhibai stretched out.

 I am burdened with pressure that does not belong to my age.

If you don't have enough time in the future, you will have to consider skipping classes. Anyway, the identity of this college student is just a cover-up.

How is this a part-time artist?

 Almost becoming a full-time artist.

However, Lin Zhibai did not feel tired. He even enjoyed the feeling of strategizing. Moreover, no matter how tired he was, it was much easier than those three years.
