Cao Feifei was also holding her arms around her chest. Looking at Lawyer Wu with hidden bitterness, just like Cao Dequan, she apparently also blamed him.

This time, in order to excavate Wang Jingwen, New Century had spent 25 million, but Wang Jingwen had ultra-high popularity which was unparalleled by any artist, as long as she said the words, many big companies would fight to get her, so Cao Dequan and Cao Feifei could only treat her with care.

Therefore, Cao Dequan and Cao Feifei naturally favoured Wang Jingwen, even if she was in the wrong.

Seeing both the father and the daughter standing on her side, Wang Jingwen proudly smiled. She felt like she was the only star in the world since even the chairman and general manager of New Century Entertainment had to pamper her. This also greatly contributed to her arrogance, of course, but she had enough capital to be arrogant for the time being.

"What did the little bastard say?" Cao Dequan's cold voice rang again, the little bastard he pointed out was undoubtedly Zhang Xiaohua.

Seeing the situation, Lawyer Wu just accepted it and decided to play his role, after all, since the chairman and general manager didn't pursue the case against Wang Jingwen, why should he bother?

"Except for the song "Broken Hearted Woman", all the other songs from her album can no longer be performed in public by Miss Wang Jingwen or HuaXiang Entertainment can at any time sue us for copyright infringement. If the case went to court, we would likely lose the lawsuit."

"This isn't that big of a deal. If you can't sing those songs, then just don't sing them. It's not like we don't have any songs, we just have six less, we still have thirteen other songs we can use." Cao Feifei didn't care and laughed. The 13 songs that Wang Jingwen stole from Zhang Xiaohua three days ago, were given to the Music department by Cao Feifei. At present, there was an elite professional music team actively making slightly altered versions of the songs.

When hearing about the 13 songs, Lawyer Wu also suddenly remembered what Zhang Xiaohua told him to convey. But he had just escaped out of the frying pan, he didn't want to jump into the fire by being the one to ruin Feifei's idea.

Seeing the lawyer twisting and squirming with indecisiveness, Cao Feifei spoke with a cold, angry tone: "If there is something to say, just say it, or else go to the finance department, get your final salary and leave. Why are you just standing there squirming? It's annoying to watch!"

Hearing this, he spoke up in a hurry, but also very carefully: "Zhang Xiaohua, said that if Wang Jingwen tries to sing those 13 songs, they will pursue it."

Hearing that, Cao Feifei and Wang Jingwen looked at each other in a sly manner.

"Are the 13 songs already registered for copyright?" Cao Feifei only cared about the 13 songs, that was why she spent so much money on digging Wang Jingwen out. After all, she can't just sing "Broken Hearted Woman" forever.

"Impossible. The 13 songs are just samples. They had just entered the production stage when I left. It is impossible to register copyrights." Wang Jingwen made a clear-cut promise.

"Does Zhang Xiaohua know you stole… you took a sample of those songs?" Cao Feifei asked.

"No."

Cao Feifei spoke: "That waste still doesn't know that our company has the best music production team in the country, right? I do not believe that our people can be inferior to the peasants he works with, just let him wait to hear our version of those songs."

Yet, Cao Feifei still showed a worried expression as she spoke.

Although she was the general manager of the company, she was definitely a layman with no knowledge of music. Apart from listening to music, she didn't understand anything else. Everything involving music production had always been handled by the music department of the company. They were responsible for the entire production work.

Cao Feifei was still not relieved, she immediately picked up the phone: "I'll immediately call the music director to the conference room."

Soon, the music director came to the conference room.

Gao Xiaosong was the department head's real name, a relatively well-known music producer in Huaxia. He had created many popular songs and popularised many singers.

Over the years, Gao Xiaosong had served as Music Director of Huasheng Records, Music Director of Rock Records, and Music Director of Universal Records. Two months ago, New Century Entertainment had paid a sky high price to buy him over. There was also an excellent music production team under his hand. His creative abilities could not be overlooked, and he was often hailed as the "Music Godfather" of Huaxia music scene.

"Gao Xiaosong, there are no problems with the 13 songs I gave you before, right? Can you complete the production of the music within the predetermined period of time?" Cao Feifei asked both worriedly and expectantly.

Hearing, Gao Xiaosong lowered his head slightly, and his fat face suddenly showed a touch of embarrassment that was hardly noticeable, but he said with confidence: "I ask the general manager and chairman to rest assured that within two months, I will spare no effort till I complete the music production for all those songs."

With Gao Xiaosong's pledge, Cao Feifei's finally felt calm, and smiling, she waved her hand to indicate that Gao Xiaosong could go back.

Returning to his own office, Gao Xiaosong took out a printed version of the song samples. His face betrayed how helpless he was, he sighed, feeling lost.

He had never seen such a unique tune or lyrics. It could be said that it far exceeded the scope of his knowledge of music and he didn't even know what instrument to use to produce the tune, even after testing various instruments for about three days, he still hadn't made any progress.

At this point he had to admit that the original creators of these songs was indeed a talented genius. He believed that without the guidance of the original creator, others could not successfully create the music of these songs.

If he was given two years to seriously study the music scores, He would be able to complete the production of these 13 songs and improve his skills to a whole new level, but the company only gave him two months, and in such a short period of time, if he wanted to complete the production of the songs, it was almost as difficult as outrunning a bullet.

However, in order to keep his reputation and his job, Gao Xiaosong had to work with it. At least he didn't have to make the tune exactly as stated but instead another version of it which reduced the difficulty slightly. He had to complete the production of these songs in two months. Otherwise, it would destroy his reputation!
