Chapter 138 The young man is still too young
Although Lu Ran has finished writing the song, the question remains: who should sing it?
In an instant, several names flashed through Lu Ran's mind.
He definitely excluded himself from the discussion; he certainly didn't want to be in the limelight.
When Shen Yuege, Liu Siqi, or Xu Manxue sing this song, the meaning is always a bit off.
As for Liu Jun? His previous two songs were just catchy pop songs, leaving too deep an impression on people. Putting aside whether he can sing this song or not, it's easy to be distracted as soon as he opens his mouth.
It seems that deciding who to sing is still a significant challenge.
Since he couldn't think of anything suitable, Lu Ran decided to put it off for the time being.
His office was now empty; everyone was working outside.
Lu Ran decided to go out and inspect the area, so he left first.
After all, he remembered that leaders were usually like that, making a show of looking around and then leaving.
As he was on his inspection tour, he suddenly heard someone humming a song.
And why does this song sound so familiar?
"I still remember you saying home is the only castle, running along the rice paddy river, smiling slightly, I know the dream I had as a child..."
Hey!
They're still their own fans.
Moreover, Lu Ran felt that this group member's voice timbre, pitch, and rhythm were all quite good.
Lu Ran walked over and picked up the nameplate on his table to look at it:
Lin Fei.
Lin Fei was humming a song while drawing when suddenly a hand reached out and picked up his name card, startling him.
When he realized it was President Lu Ran, he was even more startled.
Why is President Lu coming here for no reason? Does he think the department can't sing while working?
Lu Ran didn't notice Lin Fei's expression, but was looking at the pictures on his computer and casually said, "You sang quite well just now."
Lin Fei's heart sank to the bottom.
Wasn't President Lu supposed to be an easy person to get along with? Why can't I even hum a tune quietly while working? Is President Lu targeting me?
Lin Fei did not answer and lowered his head.
When Lu Ran saw that Lin Fei didn't reply, and then turned his head to see his expression, he knew that Lin Fei had misunderstood him.
"I'm serious, you sang really well, and you even sang one of my songs. Sing a few more lines for me."
"what?"
"Just the song 'Rice Fragrance' will do."
Lin Fei was taken aback. Looking at Lu Ran's serious expression, it seemed that he wasn't being sarcastic.
He mustered his courage, took a deep breath, and began to sing:
"Don't give up so easily, just like I said."
If you can't achieve a dream, just find another one.
To add vibrant color to one's life
First, paint love with your favorite color...
Singing a cappella, without any accompaniment, yet every note was accurate and every word carried just the right amount of emotion.
It's not a professional singer showing off their skills, but a sincere and heartfelt expression.
For a moment, Lu Ran felt it was a pity that he hadn't debuted as a singer.
Lu Ran stroked his chin, looking Lin Fei up and down: "Have you studied music?"
"I studied piano for a few years when I was little, but then I switched to painting," Lin Fei answered honestly. "I just like it, and I sing whatever comes to mind when I have nothing to do."
Why did you join the anime club?
"Three reasons." Lin Fei straightened his back when this question was raised.
"First, I love anime, and I've dreamed of making my own animations since I was little. Second..." He looked at Lu Ran, a little embarrassed, when he said "second," "I especially admire President Lu; I watch every drama and song you make. Third, I also love music, and I was thinking that maybe I'd have a chance to participate in composing music in the anime department..."
He spoke sincerely, his eyes shining.
Lu Ran smiled.
So you came here voluntarily? You must really love it.
But for myself, isn't this just getting whatever I want?
I was just worried about not being able to find a singer for the theme song, but I think Lin Fei, with his handsome features, would be perfect for it.
"What a coincidence, I happen to have an opportunity here." He picked up the sheet music for "Proud Youth," "The theme song for this anime, I'm giving it to you to sing, dare you take it?"
"Wh-what?!" Lin Fei's eyes widened, and he was completely stunned.
He had only dared to think about voice acting before, but he never expected Lu Ran to ask him to sing the theme song.
"Mr. Lu, is this appropriate? I haven't received any professional training; I'm just singing for fun." Lin Fei said somewhat unsure of himself.
After all, although he liked singing, he felt that he was still somewhat different from professional singers. This animation was bound to be a huge hit, and the fact that the theme song was so easily given to him to sing made Lin Fei feel a little unreal.
"I don't want that polished, professionally trained smooth talk; I want your sharp, youthful spirit." Lu Ran looked at Lin Fei. "How about it? Dare to try?"
Lin Fei's lips trembled, and his eyes even turned a little red: "President Lu, I...Is I really capable?"
Lu Ran had only just learned his name, and now he was being given such an important task, which made him feel very valued.
"No problem, Mr. Lu!" Lin Fei nodded vigorously, clutching the sheet music tightly to his chest. "I will definitely practice the song well in addition to doing my job well! Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Mr. Lu!"
Lu Ran was taken aback upon hearing Lin Fei's words.
No, I was originally planning to let you hand over your work first so you could focus on practicing singing. I don't want to be a capitalist.
However, remembering what Lin Fei said about his hobby—that he also liked making animation—he took back his words.
"Keep up the good work. If you sing well, I'll give you a raise and a bonus." Lu Ran patted him on the shoulder.
What excellent workhorses! What thoughtful and conscious workhorses! They volunteer to do all the work; no wonder capitalists love them.
"I don't care about the bonus!" Lin Fei was so excited he was almost incoherent. "Being able to sing the theme song for President Lu's anime is something I can brag about for the rest of my life!"
Lu Ran slapped his forehead: Young people are still too young. In a few years, you'll want to delete what you said today.
Having enthusiasm is better than being lifeless.
Lu Ran looked around the office area. Everyone was engrossed in their work; some were drawing storyboards, some were adjusting colors, and some were discussing the script.
That atmosphere of complete immersion reminded him of the animators in his past life who worked tirelessly out of love.
In this world, Chinese animation is just getting started.
But some things are common to all.
For example, passion, dreams, and a group of people who believe in the light.
Entrusting this anime to this group of people is surely a good choice.

The latest episode of "The Voice of China" is being broadcast from Studio One of Xiangcheng TV.
The show has entered its second stage. There are no more challengers left, and two singers will be eliminated at the end of each episode.
Because of her popularity in the previous episodes, Shen Yuege is undoubtedly the No. 1 in the show.
Even before the latest episode has started, people online are already discussing whether Shen Yuege can win first place again in this round.
In this episode, Shen Yuege covered one of Liu Siqi's representative works, "By the Lake Baikal," while Liu Siqi also chose to cover one of Shen Yuege's representative works, "The Fruits of Summer."
In the end, the two joined forces and advanced to the final round, finishing in the top two.
Watching the video, Lu Ran realized that the program was nearing its end and felt that it was time for him to take action.
After thinking for a moment, he picked up his phone and dialed a number.
