Chapter 122

Song Haojun stood up and asked hesitantly, “Does this mean, Third Brother, you’re already a millionaire?”

Song Haowen smiled faintly and asked back, “Brother, don’t I look like one?”

It wasn’t until then that Song Huihua came back to her senses from her shock. “Third Brother, did you really earn so much money in these two years?”

Song Haowen mischievously looked at Song Huihua. “Why not? Is it very difficult to earn this much money?” This statement left his elder sister speechless. For many people, earning this much money, let alone being difficult, is something they wouldn’t dare to think about.

After coming back to her senses from her daze, Li Ying exclaimed, “Third Son, investing a million all at once, could you have been cheated? I’ve heard that there are many scammers in Hong Kong.”

Song Huaisheng also reacted. “Yes, Third Son, your mother is right. You have to be careful not to be deceived. Otherwise, you’ll regret it later.”

Song Haowen hadn’t expected his parents to react like this. He immediately reassured them, “You can rest assured. The Eastern Emperor Film Company in Hong Kong is well-known worldwide. Many of the movies and TV shows they produce have a great influence in Southeast Asia. I believe that when our movie is released, it will definitely cause a huge sensation. By then, even counting money at home will make your hands cramp.”

“Don’t think too optimistically.” Li Ying scolded, “Even if you give me a hundred thousand now, I might faint counting it.”

“Mom, then I dare not give more money to the family in the future. If you faint from counting money, you’ll have to be rushed to the hospital.” Song Haowen joked.

“Don’t be so cheeky.” Li Ying pretended to be angry. “Although that company is a big one, you still have to be cautious. Tomorrow, go find someone you know and inquire from the side to see if it’s true.”

Song Haowen was a little helpless. He should have known that his family would worry, so he shouldn’t have said anything. “The director of our movie is the famous Asian director Wang Bolong, the female lead is the Hong Kong Miss and film and television star Zhong Lizhi. Joining me in the filming are also the head coach of the national martial arts team, as well as more than ten athletes, most of whom are national champions… Big Brother, Second Sister, do you think this could be a scam?”

Song Huihua said, “Mom, Brother’s movie is already half shot. How could it be fake? Besides, it wasn’t initially invested by Third Brother. He even picked up a big bargain.”

Song Haojun also said, “After Third Brother said that, I feel there’s nothing to worry about. Besides, if the other party is really a scammer, they wouldn’t actually shoot the film, at most they would just pretend.”

Song Huaisheng also started to understand. “Wife, you can rest assured. Our Third Son is clever, otherwise how could he earn so much money? I guess no one can fool him.”

Li Ying felt relieved by now and joked, “You old thing, if the Third Son is ours, then whose are you?”

The whole table burst into laughter.

That night, Song Haowen stayed overnight at home. The next day, as soon as it was light, Song Haojun got up and returned to the army, without even having breakfast. Li Ying, seeing her eldest son leave in such a hurry, complained and wiped away tears.

After Song Haowen had breakfast at home, he went back to his business.

Finished. He has now been admitted to graduate school, so he can choose whether to go to this school or not. During this time, he can take care of several things at hand. With more time on his hands now, the filming of the movie will be much smoother, and the progress will be much faster.

Song Haowen’s current top priority is to complete the theme song and insert songs for the movie. As for the film score, he will leave it to the professionals in the company. However, there is a prerequisite, which is that the movie music must contain elements of the theme song. Therefore, finishing the theme song earlier will be more conducive and advantageous for the movie music production.

Thinking back to the ending song “Shaolin, Shaolin” and the insert song “Shepherd’s Song” from his past life’s “Shaolin Temple,” Song Haowen felt that they were not quite suitable for transplanting into the “Tai Chi Fist” movie. He then went through the popular songs of the 1980s and 1990s in his past life and finally felt that two songs were more suitable, with no less effect than the former. One is the Mandarin version of the song “I Only Care About You” sung by Teresa Teng in 1986, composed by Sanmu Gang and lyrics by Shen Zhi, suitable for the “Tai Chi Fist” movie insert song; the other is the song “Swordsman’s Dream” sung by Wakin Chau, with lyrics by Wakin Chau and Zhan Demao, and music by Wakin Chau. The song was the opening song of the Taiwanese martial arts drama “The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber” broadcasted in March 1994, which can be borrowed to be the theme song for the “Tai Chi Fist” movie.

After confirming the song plan, Song Haowen thought of Tian Nana, who has a sweet voice reminiscent of Teresa Teng, and is very suitable for singing the song “I Only Care About You”; while his own voice, although not as good as Wakin Chau in using nasal tones, crying voices, and falsettos, is clear and high-pitched. Especially now that he has cultivated his inner strength, his tension and explosiveness are full, highlighting the heroic spirit of the martial arts world.

With a clear plan in mind, Song Haowen came to the music room in the afternoon. He had been very busy lately and had come here very rarely, feeling a bit guilty. Fortunately, Su Yan understood his difficulties very well. He had to go to school, shoot a movie, and had been seriously injured recently. He must be very busy, so there was no reproach for his recent infrequent visits. Instead, she was very concerned about him.

Song Haowen reported to Su Yan about the past few days. When Su Yan learned that he had been admitted to graduate school, she was both surprised and delighted, feeling it was unbelievable.

After that, Song Haowen returned to his office, quickly wrote down the two songs he had thought of in his past life, and copied them twice. Then, as usual, he expressed his deep respect to the lyricists, composers, and singers of these two songs from his past life, thanking them repeatedly.

Suddenly, Tian Nana rushed over like a gust of wind. As soon as she saw Song Haowen, she exclaimed, “My goodness, you’re amazing! I thought you were just talking about taking the graduate entrance exam, but you actually got in! I admire you so much.” Her eyes sparkled, completely like a little fan.

Song Haowen chuckled, “Tian Jie, you can’t say that. Otherwise, I’ll be proud.”

Tian Nana came over and twisted Song Haowen’s mouth, smiling and saying, “You little brat! … You’re so outstanding, I’m afraid the distance between us is getting farther and farther. I’m a little sad.” Saying this, she inexplicably felt a sourness in her heart, and her mood instantly sank.

“You’re being petty!” Song Haowen flicked Tian Nana’s nose and comforted her, “I’m originally outstanding, it’s just that you didn’t pay much attention before. Don’t worry, our relationship won’t be affected by this.”

Top of Form

He really couldn’t catch up with me, so I pulled you along. If all else fails, I’ll run and you can take the car. That way, you’ll always be able to keep up with me, right?”

After hearing this, Tian Nana couldn’t help but laugh.

“You really know how to make people happy.”

“What’s so great about this? Making you scream in surprise, that’s the real skill.” Song Haowen said proudly.

Tian Nana’s face turned red instantly. She threw Song Haowen a flirtatious glance and then walked to his desk, picking up the music score on the table. “Is this what you want me to scream about?”

Song Haowen snatched the music score back from Tian Nana.

“Don’t rush to look at it. Wait until you see me sing before you say anything.”

“Pfft, is it really that amazing?” Tian Nana was half doubtful and half expectant, her eyes shining brightly.

Song Haowen asked Tian Nana to sit down. He picked up a guitar and gently strummed a few strings. Suddenly, a beautiful and ethereal melody echoed in the office. Then, he officially played the prelude of “I Only Care About You” and sang softly, with a beautiful tone and strong emotion.

“If I hadn’t met you,

Where would I be?

How would life be going,

Should life be cherished?

Maybe knowing someone,

Living an ordinary life.

I wonder if, There would also be love as sweet as honey?

As time rushes by,

 I only care about you.

Willingly infected by your breath.

How many in life can find a confidant?

Losing the strength of life is not regrettable.

So I beg you, Don’t let me leave you. Besides you,

I can’t feel, A trace of affection.

If there is such a day,

You say you’re about to leave.

I will lose myself, Wandering into the endless sea of people.

Don’t need any promises,

Just be together every day.

I can’t rely solely on, Memories to live on.

As time rushes by, I only care about you.

Willingly infected by your breath.

How many in life can find a confidant?

Losing the strength of life is not regrettable.

So I beg you, Don’t let me leave you. Besides you,

I can’t feel, A trace of affection.”

…

After Song Haowen finished singing, he thought Tian Nana would scream, clap, and cheer, but after waiting for a while without getting a response, he looked at her in confusion, only to find her bowing her head, tears streaming down her face, which surprised him. He thought, this is clearly a love song, how did it become a sad song? Just as he was about to ask her what was wrong, he saw her lift her head, tears in her eyes, and say to him, “Brother, are you confessing to me?”
