In Lu Chen's dream world, there were too many unfamiliar people and things. Although the development of history and technology was similar, there were huge differences in the fields of music, movies, literature, and other cultural fields.
The singers, movie stars, music, movies, literature, etc. that Lu Chen was familiar with did not exist in the dream world. But the dream world did not lack celebrities, classic masterpieces, and the richness of art even surpassed reality.
Li Feiyu's words reminded Lu Chen that he had a huge treasure trove!
Just those original pop songs …
Lu Chen had just opened a software called "Singer Master" on his computer.
"Singer Master" was known as a music composition tool. It combined songwriting, arrangement, synthesis, and other functions into one. It had a huge online cloud source material library. It was professional but easy to use. Regardless of whether it was an amateur or an experienced musician, they could use this software to create original songs.
Lu Chen studied computer science in university. Plus, he liked music, so he was able to use "Singer Master" to compose and arrange songs early on. He wanted to experience what it felt like to be a singer.
It was just that the songs he wrote in the past were for his own amusement. He would not be able to write a complete song in a year.
As for the quality, there was not much to say.
But now, with the memory from his dream, Lu Chen used less than half an hour to compose and write the lyrics for two songs.
After finishing writing, Lu Chen played and sang several times to the screen and corrected some of the mistakes and omissions.
Finally, he sent the complete scores of the two songs to "Greater China Music Library" for a copyright inquiry.
"Greater China Music Library" was jointly established by the Chinese Cultural Bureau, the Chinese Copyright Bureau, the Chinese Musicians' Association, and the Chinese Performing Artists' Association. It was an online music copyright inquiry, registration, and trading website. It had a history of 20 years and had the highest authority in the field of music copyright.
The website was open to everyone and provided a complete service, but it was not completely free.
The fee for a copyright inquiry was 100 yuan. The two songs cost 200 yuan in Lu Chen's Yifu account, which was equivalent to ten days of his living expenses!
The inquiry process was very slow. The music library program would make a comprehensive comparison between the music score and the previously registered works to determine whether there were any similarities, similarities, or plagiarism.
The Greater China Music Library's database was extremely large, and the intelligent comparison and judgment required a huge amount of calculations. Therefore, even with the support of a supercomputer in the background, it still required a certain amount of time to complete the query.
But no matter how long it took, Lu Chen would insist on waiting, because this was a necessary step to register the copyright, and it was also the most important basis for him to compare dreams and reality.
As time passed, Lu Chen stayed in front of the computer, staring at the progress bar without blinking.
His heart had never been as restless as it was now. He was worried about personal gains and losses, and was extremely nervous.
Because Lu Chen knew that this might be the only chance to change the fate of himself and his family!
Ding!
As if an entire century had passed, a green prompt suddenly popped up on the computer screen.
Query successful!
Lu Chen was stunned and didn't react immediately.
Ding!
Another prompt popped up.
Query successful!
This time, Lu Chen finally understood that the two songs he uploaded had passed the copyright inquiry of the Greater China Music Library. This meant that he could register the copyright and obtain all the copyrights of the songs!
The next moment, a huge amount of joy and excitement drowned Lu Chen. He couldn't help but clench his fist and wave it around. He wanted to scream to the sky to vent his emotions at that moment.
Yes！ It really works!!
But it was not over yet. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and clicked on the copyright registration.
The cost of copyright registration was much higher than the inquiry. One work required 500 yuan, and he would have to pay a filing fee every year to prevent excessive registration.
Lu Chen had become a member of the Greater China Music Library a long time ago, and he had just passed the system inquiry. Therefore, after paying 1000 yuan, the two songs were quickly registered under his name, and the copyright was confirmed!
With the completion of the registration prompt, Lu Chen finally relaxed.
But the joy in his heart increased, because he had confirmed that the memory in the dream was real!
Leaning back on the chair, Lu Chen let out a long breath.
He opened the drawer of the small desk and took out a bowl of instant noodles and a ham sausage.
After thinking for a bit, Lu Chen took out a ham sausage — — I'm happy today, extra!
He got up and went to the bathroom to get some water. He plugged in the electric kettle and quickly poured the boiling hot water into the bowl of noodles.
The air was filled with the familiar and intoxicating smell of instant noodles!
It wasn't that Lu Chen didn't want to go out and eat a real feast, but after paying the copyright and registration fees, he only had 100 yuan left in his Yifu account.
As for the change in his pocket, he didn't even have 50 yuan.
Moreover, there was still half a month before the day of his payday!
This amount of money wasn't even enough to eat, but Lu Chen didn't panic much. He ate the instant noodles, including the soup and water, and after a simple cleaning, he left the basement with the guitar case on his back.
By the time Lu Chen arrived at Houhai Forget Grass Bar, it was already 8 o 'clock in the evening.
Houhai was called Houhai, but it was actually a huge artificial lake. It was used by the royal family in the old days and was also a part of Shichahai. It started from Di 'anmen Wai Street in the east, Xinjiekou in the west, Ping' an Street in the south, and Second Ring Road in the north.
During the Yuan Dynasty, Houhai was a prosperous commercial district of the metropolis. Along the coast, there were taverns, karaoke stands, shops and workshops. Surrounding it were the residences of the nobles and famous poets. Even today, it was still the heart of the capital.
Today's Houhai was more prosperous than in the past. On weekdays, there was a lot of people. At night, all the bars lit up their signs to welcome customers who liked to spend the night.
Houhai was famous for its snacks, but the bars were even more famous.
Forget Grass Bar was one of the hundreds of bars in Houhai, and it was also where Lu Chen worked at night.
"Xiao Lu, why are you late?"
The waiter standing at the entrance saw Lu Chen rushing over and mocked, "Aren't you always the most punctual? Could it be that you forgot the time when you saw a beauty today? "
Lu Chen glanced at him and didn't say anything. He pushed open the door and entered the bar.
This guy was about the same age as Lu Chen and had worked at Forget Grass Bar for a longer time than Lu Chen. The two originally didn't have any grudges, but after being scolded by the boss several times for being late to work, he held a grudge against Lu Chen.
Because the boss of the bar scolded him, he used Lu Chen, who always came to work on time, as a comparison. Lu Chen was purely being shot while lying down, he was really wronged.
Another important reason was that among all the waiters in Forget Grass Bar, Lu Chen was undoubtedly the most handsome. He was at least three streets ahead of this guy with acne all over his face. Usually, he relied on his face to earn quite a bit of tips.
His heart was filled with jealousy, so he seized the opportunity to mock and ridicule Lu Chen. Lu Chen knew that there was no reason to reason with this kind of person, and he didn't want to stir up trouble, so he treated him like air.
Ignoring him was actually a very powerful counterattack!
It wasn't the prime time for the nightlife yet, so there weren't many customers in the bar.
Forget Grass Bar's scale was considered medium in Houhai. It was rebuilt from an old warehouse. The space inside was more than six meters high, divided into two floors. In the middle, there was a suspended stage, lighting, curtains, sound system, and other facilities.
Surrounding the center stage, there were a total of ten wine tables and stools on the first and second floor. Including the scattered seats in front of the bar, it could accommodate up to two hundred customers. The entire decoration was said to have cost around two million.
When Lu Chen came in, the boss of the bar, ChenJianhao, was calculating the accounts behind the bar. A charming woman sat beside him, leisurely tasting a glass of blue cocktail.
Lu Chen hesitated for a moment, then carried his violin case and walked over, saying, "Sorry boss, I'm late today."
His working time was set at 7: 30, and now it was already 8: 00, 30 minutes late.
ChenJianhao was a middle-aged man in his forties, but he looked to be in his thirties. His figure was well-proportioned, and his clothes were very meticulous. He had the elegant demeanor and temperament of a successful person.
After working at Forget Grass Bar for more than half a year, Lu Chen knew that his boss didn't like people being late, and even more so, he didn't like people finding excuses to cover up their mistakes, so he simply and sincerely admitted his mistake.
ChenJianhao put down the pen in his hand, and lightly said, "Forget it this time, don't do it again."
Originally, according to the bar's rules, a waiter's salary would be deducted if he was late to work, but Lu Chen had always performed well, and it was his first time making a mistake, so he was lenient.
Lu Chen secretly let out a sigh of relief, and quickly said, "Thank you boss."
"Oh right …"
ChenJianhao said, "Sister Na and Xiao Shuai will be here later, so tonight you can warm up the place."
Lu Chen nodded and replied, "Okay!"
Inadvertently, he found that the charming woman standing beside ChenJianhao was looking at him, and her eyebrows were smiling.
The woman was wearing a blue dress, and her hair was tied up in a delicate bun. Her figure was graceful and enchanting, and her delicate face had light makeup on it. Her eyebrows were light, and her eyes were as beautiful as a fox.
The two people's eyes met, and the charming woman's lips hooked up into a small arc. She blinked at Lu Chen, and her fox-like eyes were captivating, revealing a trace of seductive craftiness.
Seductress!
Lu Chen's heart fiercely jumped, and he quickly turned his head and walked toward the backstage direction.
He was afraid that if he looked at this strange woman for a moment longer, he would lose his composure and make a fool of himself on the spot.
Such a seductress was not someone an ordinary person could control!
Behind him, the woman's laughter came.
ChenJianhao helplessly looked at her, and said, "Xiaomei, why are you teasing my man?"
The woman used her right hand to lift the black hair hanging down from her temples, and her left hand gently shook the wine glass, and said, "Because I like it …"
ChenJianhao smiled bitterly and was speechless.
