Chapter 251: Ten Times the Price
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“I want to record a song. I’ll be renting it for three hours,” Jiang Tong said directly into the phone.
“I’m sorry, Miss, there’s a band…” the other party sounded very apologetic.
“I’ll pay ten times the rental price,” Jiang Tong interrupted him directly. The other party immediately changed his tone, “Okay, Miss, when will you arrive? I’ll arrange it for you right away.”
At about two o’clock in the afternoon, Jiang Tong arrived at the lower floor of Glimmer Music Studio. This was a relatively old office building, and the management was not very strict. Jiang Tong took the elevator to the eighth floor. When she got out of the elevator, she saw the outside of Glimmer Music Studio. She pushed the door open and entered. Glimmer Music Studio only had one recording studio, but whether it was the renovation or the equipment used, it was top-notch in City Z. It was comparable to the recording studios of some big music companies, which was why Glimmer Music Studio’s fees were so high! The recording studio was charged by the hour. Normally, an hour was only a few hundred dollars, but Glimmer Music Studio charged 1,800 dollars an hour! This was the price of an individual recording. If it was a symphony or orchestra recording, the price would be more than 5,000 dollars an hour!
Jiang Tong immediately offered ten times the price! 18,000 dollars an hour, 54,000 dollars for three hours! This price was nothing to Jiang Tong, who had tens of millions in her bank account. When Jiang Tong entered the studio, all the staff of Glimmer Music Studio was waiting for her to arrive. This kind of high-end recording studio was available to all professionals, such as tuners and mixers, Jiang Tong didn’t need to bring anyone over. She just needed to tell them how to do it. After Jiang Tong wrote the lyrics and the mix for Song Chengjun again, the recording officially began.
Soon, at five in the afternoon, Jiang Tong, who had finished recording the song, walked out of Glimmer Music Studio’s door. There were two more things in her hands. One was a USB flash drive, and the other was a blu-ray CD with a protective box. The USB flash drive and the CD were given by Glimmer Music Studio. The songs that Jiang Tong had recorded were stored inside. Other than the difference in the quality of the sound, there was no other difference between the two items.
She went downstairs and into the car. Jiang Tong put the things aside and then took out her phone to turn it on. Her phone had been turned off when she was recording the song. She was only turning on her phone now. As soon as she turned it on, she received a few text messages. They were all reminders that someone had called her but failed to get through. Jiang Tong casually scrolled through them. A total of three people had called her. She could tell from their numbers that they were Zhou Jingyun, Xie Wenkai, and Ji Lanzhou.
Jiang Tong drove out of the car and called Zhou Jingyun first. As soon as the call was connected, Zhou Jingyun asked directly, “Why did you turn off your phone just now?”
“I was busy,” Jiang Tong replied. Zhou Jingyun followed up with another question, “What were you busy with? With who? Song Chengjun?”
“No, I’m busy with other things,” Jiang Tong smiled and said in a mocking tone, “What do you think I’m doing? Did you think I was with Song Chengjun? We’ve been separated for a long time. Were you assuming that he and I…”
Zhou Jingyun instantly felt relieved. Ever since Jiang Tong left his place to look for Song Chengjun, he had been worried that he wouldn’t be able to stop Jiang Tong. He was afraid that Jiang Tong would cause trouble. Now that Jiang Tong said that they had been separated for a long time, he believed it! He didn’t think that Jiang Tong would use such a thing to lie to him.
“Xie Wenkai looked for you. He said that he couldn’t get through to your phone, so he called me.” Zhou Jingyun decisively changed the topic.
“Yes, I know,” Jiang Tong nodded.
“Then it’s fine. I have to work overtime tonight.” Zhou Jingyun didn’t say anything more. He wanted to ask Jiang Tong what she had said to Song Chengjun and how far they had gone. However, he knew that Jiang Tong wouldn’t tell him, so he didn’t ask.
After ending the call with Zhou Jingyu, Jiang Tong called Xie Wenkai again. Xie Wenkai quickly picked up. “Babe, why did you turn off your phone?”
“I was busy just now.” Jiang Tong still said the same thing. Unlike Zhou Jingyun, Xie Wenkai did not ask what Jiang Tong was busy with. He directly said, “I have already taken care of Ji Lanzhou’s matter.”
“How?” Jiang Tong asked casually.
Xie Wenkai explained the situation. The matter of Ji Lanzhou being sent abroad to study was actually very difficult to deal with because it was the Ji family’s matter. No one else had any say in this matter. However, it wasn’t impossible to solve it. Xie Wenkai used a very simple method. That method was to let Ji Lanzhou become an intern at the Six Blessings Corporation!
