Chapter 41

Watching Peng Bin grit his teeth and speak, Jin Yufan was somewhat moved in his heart.

In fact, from the first day he met Peng Bin, and with Peng Bin's every word and action, Jin Yufan had more or less deduced that Peng Bin was not an ordinary person. At the very least, Peng Bin's position within Taiwan Universal Music should not be simple.

Now, seeing Peng Bin grit his teeth and make up his mind, preparing to personally take him to run from place to place and actively seek opportunities, Jin Yufan was naturally very moved.

Jin Yufan, of course, knew that for Peng Bin to do this, he must truly consider him as one of his own. Otherwise, Peng Bin wouldn't have said such a thing, because doing so was indeed a very embarrassing matter.

After all, running from place to place and actively seeking opportunities, in plain terms, meant begging. If you were begging, what face did you have left? If you wanted to keep your face, you shouldn't come begging. If you were begging, you shouldn't care about your face.

Peng Bin considered him as one of his own and was even willing to lose face. This, of course, deeply moved Jin Yufan. After all, Jin Yufan knew in his heart that for someone with status and position to voluntarily lose face was a very difficult decision.

Thinking about this, Jin Yufan no longer hesitated. Since Peng Bin considered him as one of his own, he should naturally also consider Peng Bin as one of his own.

More importantly, fame should be sought early. The earlier you debut, the higher your seniority, the more opportunities, and the wider your network. At the same time, you can gradually cultivate a large group of loyal fans who are around your age.

Moreover, although Taiwan Universal Music's strength, influence, and network in the Taiwanese music industry were unmatched, Taiwan Universal Music was a large company. Who would care about a small character like Jin Yufan who hadn't even debuted, especially since Jin Yufan was Korean and didn't have a local Taiwanese household registration.

Therefore, if Jin Yufan wanted to debut early and achieve the goal of seeking fame early, he must demonstrate his strength and potential, showcasing his unique talents. In plain terms, he needed to show Taiwan Universal Music that he was worth cultivating.

At the very least, Jin Yufan couldn't choose to be low-key like DSP Entertainment. Instead, he had to be high-profile, so high-profile that everyone knew him and believed that it was necessary and worthwhile to cultivate him.

"Brother Bin, take a look at this!" Thinking about this, Jin Yufan no longer hesitated. He took the A4 paper he had prepared from Lu He's hand and handed it to Peng Bin, who was sitting opposite him.

"What is this?" Curiously taking it, Peng Bin read it out of habit. However, when he saw the content on the paper, he was suddenly shocked. He looked at the smiling Jin Yufan, then at the paper, then at Jin Yufan again, and then at the paper once more.

After a long while, Peng Bin finally reacted. "Yufan, can you write songs?"

That's right, what Jin Yufan handed to Peng Bin was a song he had created, well, to be precise, a pirated song. This was the surprise Jin Yufan had prepared for Peng Bin, and the capital to make Taiwan Universal Music take him seriously.

As a record company, what could they ask of their singers besides making money for the company?

Similarly, for a record company, a singer who can write their own songs is clearly more valuable and worth cultivating than those who can't.

Not to mention, even if this songwriter doesn't become famous, at least they can write songs, which is a skill to make a living. If they can't be a singer, they can focus on working behind the scenes. In comparison, they are much stronger than those who can only sing songs arranged by the company. If these singers don't become famous quickly or face a significant setback in their career, it's hard for them to recover.

Compared to the latter, a songwriter is clearly more valued and cultivated, and the company needs to spend less money and resources.

Moreover, a songwriter can not only write songs for themselves but also for other singers. In the future, when the company's singers need songs, they can directly request them without having to look for songs outside and spend money to buy them.

At the same time, a songwriter can also write songs for singers under other agencies, which greatly enhances their network in the industry. If they write many high-quality songs that receive strong reactions, their status and influence in the industry will naturally grow.

Compared to Hong Kong and the mainland, Taiwan places more emphasis on songwriters. The success of the three grandmasters and the four talents is right in front of everyone, visible and verifiable.

Moreover, the strong rise of Jay Chou and Leehom Wang has directly made their agencies and record companies earn a lot. Which agency or record company wouldn't envy this?

Therefore, when Peng Bin saw the song Jin Yufan handed him, proving his talent in music composition, he was so shocked.

Because Peng Bin knew very well that as long as Jin Yufan's songs were not trash, and as long as Jin Yufan wasn't a slow and low-productivity songwriter, there was no doubt that Jin Yufan would instantly gain the attention of the upper management of Taiwan Universal Music.

"Give me a moment!" Thinking about not having to lose face and beg others in the future, Peng Bin was very happy. He suppressed his excitement and quietly said to Jin Yufan, then ignored Jin Yufan and Lu He, and carefully read the song on the paper.

As a manager, Peng Bin might not be very knowledgeable about music, but to be a good manager, he had at least learned to read sheet music and could hum songs from sheet music.

Now, what Peng Bin needed to do was simple: carefully examine the song Jin Yufan gave him to see how good its quality was.

Jin Yufan, of course, knew Peng Bin's intentions, so he just smiled and gestured to Lu He to be patient and wait.

Jin Yufan had absolute confidence in the quality of the song he had specially prepared to catch the attention of the upper management of Taiwan Universal Music. After all, this song was carefully selected by him.

Therefore, Jin Yufan was very calm. There was no reason why someone could achieve great success and popularity with this song, but he couldn't, especially since the biggest challenge of language and pronunciation was not a problem for him.

"I thought for dozens of nights..." Looking at the sheet music and lyrics, Peng Bin couldn't help but start singing.

Hearing Peng Bin sing, the corners of Jin Yufan's mouth couldn't help but rise. Yes, this song was the one that made Lin Junjie famous.
