Chapter 273 Lu Xuan's New Song

Li Yaowen's call came much sooner than Lu Xuan expected.

"Lu Xuan, I have to apologize to you for this. I misjudged the person and didn't supervise properly."

"What do you think should be done about this?"

Li Yaowen sat in his executive chair.

Looking at Hua Chenyu's pained wails on the computer screen, he felt a throbbing in his temples.

This kind of thing really felt like a deception.

Lu Xuan said with a smile, "It's okay. In that case, I'll handle this song myself."

"I'm telling you this because Hua Chenyu is just one step away from becoming a first-tier artist. I'm afraid your investment will be a complete loss."

"It's good that you're aware of it."

Listening to Lu Xuan's words, Li Yaowen felt even more apologetic.

But now that things had developed this way, and Lu Xuan had personally said that he would write the song,

he could only keep it in mind for the time being.

Lu Xuan hung up Li Yaowen's phone and said to Lin Ying, who was standing beside him, "You should have heard my phone call just now. I'll do this song myself."

"Since we're going to create a zombie universe, I should indeed personally create a song to establish it."

Lin Ying was overjoyed!

This way, he wouldn't have to worry about whether the song was suitable or not.

Who was Lu Xuan?

A creative genius who could write a hit song while filming a movie and traveling!

Now the quality of the theme song was guaranteed.

Moreover, with Lu Xuan in charge, there would be more buzz during the promotion.

Lu Xuan looked at him and reminded him, "The company called me just now."

"There aren't any new movies being released recently. After the New Year's档 (dàng) passes, there will be a month of blank time."

"We can release one of our movies in March to get some early buzz and avoid market competition."

"The advantage of this is that we can have a certain audience base by the May Day Golden Week."

"It's up to you to decide whether to release it early or not."

After Lu Xuan finished speaking, he left Lin Ying to ponder alone and took Su Yao to the hotel he had booked in advance.

Now that he had decided to write a song, Lu Xuan put his heart and soul into it.

Moreover, one song was not enough; the film also lacked purely instrumental background music.

He would prepare all of this.

Fortunately, the equipment here was complete enough for Lu Xuan to use.

Su Yao was still engrossed in her novel.

Her novel had reached the top ten on the charts, following behind Lu Xuan's novel.

It could be said that besides Lu Xuan's novel, hers was the most popular.

The newly attracted fans had created a fan circle, discussing the plot every day, which gave Su Yao great confidence.

The two of them worked separately like this.

The next morning, Lu Xuan and Su Yao took the score he had prepared to the best recording studio in the area.

Because it was Lu Xuan's new song, the business negotiation with the recording studio went very smoothly.

The owner of the recording studio was a fan of Lu Xuan, and he directly pushed back the originally scheduled time and gave it to Lu Xuan.

He was now extremely eager to know what Lu Xuan's new song would be like.

Although Lu Xuan felt a little embarrassed to meet his fan, he still gave the necessary warning before recording.

"This song is for a ghost movie, so it might be a little creepy. I don't think you should have too high expectations!"

But Lu Xuan's warning had no effect.

Not only was Lu Xuan's fan looking forward to it, but Su Yao and Lin Ying were also eagerly waiting for Lu Xuan's new song.

Seeing this, Lu Xuan sighed.

He had already reminded them, so he had done his best!

If they felt scared later, it would have nothing to do with him.

He pushed open the door and walked into the recording booth, waiting for the music to start.

The name of the song was "Ghost Bride."

From the name, one could roughly guess the content.

However, these people didn't have the lyrics, so they could only curiously watch Lu Xuan in the recording booth.

The music slowly began.

"The bright moon spits out its light, the yin wind blows through the willow lane."

"It's a female ghost looking for a lover"

"Who would love a sorrowful ghost bride."

"Accompanying the female ghost, secretly worshiping the moonlight in the deep night."

As soon as Lu Xuan opened his mouth, everyone felt a chilling sensation.

They couldn't help but touch their necks.

The song's sensory experience did indeed have a terrifying feeling.

"See see see"

"Seeing, the heart flustered"

"Her eyes, her eyes"

"Seem to be, seem to be, stars shining"

"See see see, the heart even more flustered"

This time, it wasn't just the chilling sensation; the others present felt a fear from the bottom of their hearts.

Lin Ying suppressed the fear in his heart, his eyes becoming brighter and brighter.

"That's the feeling!"

"Just right!"

But the others weren't as crazy as Lin Ying.

Although the room was brightly lit, they still felt like something had appeared beside them.

Su Yao gently bit her lower lip, her eyes fixed on Lu Xuan in the recording booth.

This feeling was even stronger than when she watched *Zombie Daoist*.

It was as if the most fearful aspect of her heart had been勾了出来 (gōu chū lái – dredged up).

The long five minutes felt like an unbearable torment for everyone present.

Fortunately, the song ended, and Lu Xuan walked out of the recording booth.

Looking at the dazed crowd, he asked, "What's wrong? Why do you all have such expressions?"

"Is there something wrong with the song?"

"Good, too good!" Lin Ying suddenly clapped his fist excitedly, startling the people around him.

Lu Xuan said, "See if there are any flaws. If not, I'll record it two more times."

"This song will be used as background music."

"I'll compose an instrumental version for you later, and you can use those to edit the film."

As he spoke, he put on his headphones.

Seeing Lu Xuan come out, Su Yao threw herself into his arms.

"Lu Xuan, I'm a little scared. This song of yours is too creepy!"

Lu Xuan looked at Su Yao with a wry smile.

"Don't you like this kind of song? Why are you scared now!"

"It's daytime now, there won't be any ghosts, even if there are..."

Before Lu Xuan could finish, Su Yao covered his mouth with her hand.

"Don't say it!"

"If you say it... I'll bite you!"

Lu Xuan immediately thought of the hidden meaning of "咬字分开 (yǎo zì fēn kāi - pronouncing each character separately)" and became interested.

But there were too many people here, so he had to wait until they got back to study the mysteries of these words with Su Yao.

After listening to the song again twice, Lu Xuan felt that there were no problems.

He then looked at Lin Ying.

"Give me some suggestions, and I'll revise them on the spot."

"If not, then this song is settled!"

Lin Ying was still immersed in the joy, unable to extricate himself.

This song could definitely contribute to the film's box office!

He quickly said, "No problem, that's it!"

"I think it's perfect!"
