The CEO's Incredible Heiress

Chapter 97: A Set Up

Hu Lai frowned. “What about it?”

Kai naturally wanted to cut a new album, especially since “Ultimate Singer-Songwriter” was a sensation. If he could ride on the program’s success and create an album now, it would help strengthen his foothold in the entertainment industry.

“I have a few songs available. Do you think Kai would want to use them?” asked Nancy.

Hu Lai felt Nancy was always a good songwriter. It was the main reason Kai wanted to keep her close.

However, they had fallen out when Nancy attempted to use Kai’s popularity. How could Nancy think Kai would want anything to do with her now?

The moment Hu Lai went quiet, Nancy said, “If you are not interested, it is fine with me. I can always sell them to someone else. Since my songs were good, I decided to ask Kai first…”

“Show them to me,” said Hu Lai.

Kai genuinely needed new songs. Songwriting could not be done overnight. Inspiration and a lot of work was needed.

The contestants of the program were able to perform so many original works only through years of songwriting. Moreover, Kai was caught up with work and was unable to focus on songwriting.

If Nancy’s songs were good, there was no harm for Kai to use them.

Nancy said happily, “I will bring them over.”

Before long, Nancy met up with Kai and Hu Lai.

She handed her manuscript to them. She had previously copied Jennie’s manuscript in her own writing.

Kai was a little nonchalant at first, but a look of shock quickly emerged on his face after he went through them. He gradually sat up straight.

These songs were simply breathtaking. They were even better than the ones Nancy had given him before.

He hummed using the manuscript and found them particularly catchy. He could almost remember them with a single hum.

Based on his professional knowledge, these songs would spread like wildfire the moment they were released.

What was the most important thing an artist needed?

Some people felt it was good looks while others felt it was the packaging.

However, artists who relied only on either one of the two factors would not last long in the entertainment industry, so Kai always used his good looks and music.

An artist could only have a share of the market with catchy, classic hits.

Similarly, people thought about Xia Peifeng’s amazing songs the moment he was brought up. And even though Lee Hyori did not show her face in over 20 years, she could still use her old songs to make a comeback.

Kai wanted to do just that! Sadly, he needed good songs!

“Did you write these songs?” asked Kai.

Nancy immediately nodded. “Uh huh. After I was eliminated from the program, I spent all my time writing songs. Kai, if you like them, feel free to use them.”

Kai genuinely liked her work and could appreciate their value.

“I will definitely use them if I can,” said Kai. “Thank you for offering them to me first. If I use them in my album, I want complete ownership of the songs.”

Despite Nancy’s reluctance, she nodded. “Sure. That’s fine.”

“Name your price.” Kai did not want to take her work for nothing.

“I want to go back to ‘Ultimate Singer-Songwriter’!” implored Nancy.

Ever since she started working for Golden Domain Entertainment, Mr Wang simply used her for sex and had no interest in grooming her.
