Since Harrison Clark had firmly decided not to return to Chesterton Apartment, he naturally had to devote himself to preparing for other things.

In the end, he still refused Carrie Thomas’s proposal to let him become a shareholder of the talent agency, feeling it was unnecessary.

First, he was not familiar with this industry and figured there would be a lot of trouble involved.

Secondly, relationships between people often break because interests are involved.

Harrison could write songs for Carrie and help her with some trivial matters, and the two could cooperate deeply, but he believed he should never become her agent.

In the original history, Carrie had never signed with any talent agency, always following the individual studio model.

This made her path to stardom a bit rough, but the advantage was that she had fewer forced performances than other artists, allowing her to focus on her own work and consistently produce amazing pieces.

She did not do any publicity stunts and had no need to.

She didn’t do many commercial performances and had few endorsements, but she didn’t lack money.

She made money through her creativity.

At the beginning, she struggled to make money, but as she produced more songs and eventually released a platinum-selling album worldwide, she never worried about money again.

Harrison had already changed too much for Carrie, and he believed that his best choice going forward might not be to monopolize her completely but to try to put her back on the path she deserved.

Even if the timeline could not be returned to the past, the environment around Carrie could gradually approach another “real” timeline under Harrison’s discreet guidance.

Carrie was quite regretful about this, but Harrison’s excuse was that he also needed to focus on creating, and that being an agent would distract him. Carrie believed this completely.

“Alright, don’t worry about such trivial matters. Now your top priority is to finish ‘A Dull Life’ as soon as possible. You’ve been practicing for quite a few days. You should stop practicing and pay someone to do it according to the original plan. I still hold 70% of the copyright for this song, so my investment should also account for 70%. Here’s over two hundred thousand, use it first. In a few days, No. 1 Fly should be able to transfer the money, and it will be just enough to make up for it.”

One day, Harrison urged Carrie to go to Beiduo Music Academy to record songs.

Unexpectedly, Carrie shook her head, “I don’t think we need to go to Beiduo Music Academy.”

“Huh?”

Carrie smiled like she was presenting a treasure, “I can now basically play the instruments used in the accompaniment for this song according to the sheet music.”

Harrison was shocked, “What? You can’t be serious. How did you learn so many instruments so quickly? It doesn’t make any sense!”

Carrie said, “What’s so strange about that? Haven’t you progressed faster than me? Besides, I’m not actually proficient at it, I just practiced the few notes in your sheet music over and over. But the principles of music are the same, and although I’m still a beginner, I should be able to use it by playing it slowly, and save a lot of money.”

Seeing that Harrison still wanted to say something, Carrie advised him, “I’ve made up my mind, don’t persuade me, there’s no need. Oh, you do have 70% of the copyright, but your investment is already considered the song you wrote. You planned to sell the song to Jenny Hart for 500,000, didn’t you? So don’t measure value with money, otherwise, I still have to pay you. Right?”

Harrison felt she made a lot of sense, but something didn’t seem right.

“Alright, you have the final say.”

He shrugged his shoulders, too lazy to persuade her any further.

Over the next week, Harrison said he needed to work hard, but his life was incredibly leisurely.

During this time, he went to Milton Music Acaemy in Oxfordshire as planned, looking for a reliable female student to help him sing the demo for “Deep in the Night.”

As the top music institution in the province, although the Milton Music Acaemy couldn’t compare to Carrie’s Beiduo Music Academy, the students were quite talented.

When he went to the school, Harrison had set high standards in his heart, worrying that he wouldn’t find a suitable singer for the demo.

Being close to success breeds success, and staying close to someone like Carrie for so long naturally raised his expectations for other singers.

However, to his surprise, he found a suitable person almost effortlessly, taking less than five minutes in total.This school was not closed-off, so he swaggered into the campus.

Then he randomly asked someone on the street how to get in touch with the vocal music department’s counselor.

Well, art schools are indeed different. Nine out of ten girls are gorgeous, and the last one is a heavenly beauty.

He didn’t deliberately choose, but the girl he approached was quite pretty, tall, with a ponytail, wearing a white vest and slim-fitting trousers. If she were in a regular college, she would definitely be a campus beauty.

The situation at that time was as follows: Harrison Clark stopped the girl and stated his purpose.

The girl said she could take him to find someone, and it was very convenient because she happened to be a junior in the vocal music department.

But she didn’t immediately agree to Harrison’s request for a recommendation, and instead looked at him cautiously with a tilted head.

Harrison understood her vigilance, after all, besides beauties and handsome men in this school, the third most abundant group was perverts.

Harrison took out his phone, switched on the speaker, and played the recently very popular song “Boring.”

The girl was puzzled, “I’ve heard ‘Boring’, it’s very nice. I even know that the singer, Carrie Thomas, is from Oxfordshire and that the song’s producer did all the work of composing, arranging and lyric writing himself. It’s said that this producer did not have formal training and is a genuine self-taught genius. So what? What do you mean by playing this song for me?”

As a music student, she was keeping up with the trends and had comprehensive knowledge.

Harrison’s face turned slightly red, and then he took out his ID card, pointed to his name, and said, “Oh, I am Harrison Clark, the producer of this song.”

“Ah!”

A sharp scream shattered the tranquility of the campus.

Only after a long time did this girl named Lucy Haywood calm down.

“Oh my gosh! Is it really you in person?”

“I’m going crazy! Totally crazy!”

“You’re my idol, oh no, you’re my fan… damn it, I can’t speak properly. Anyway, I worship you to death!”

“I want to have your babies!”

Above was her state of mind after she had calmed down.

Harrison had never seen such a commotion and was almost scared away on the spot.

This girl seemed calm on the surface, but she was actually a bit of a snake spirit deep down!

The world is full of coincidences. While Lucy was a student, she was quite knowledgeable about the industry.

She could understand the real brilliance of the song “Boring” and so had an almost fanatical adoration for its producer, Harrison Clark.

However, she didn’t fare well either, displaying excessive enthusiasm, which led Harrison to label her as a snake spirit in his heart.

If it weren’t for the fact that he still needed her to show him the way, he would have turned and run.

“What are you looking for in our counselor, Harrison? Are you thinking of coming to class at this school?”

Once she confirmed Harrison’s identity, Lucy dropped all caution and started pulling him forward intimately, chatting as they walked.

Harrison pulled away from this unfamiliar girl’s hand and said, “I wrote a new rock-style song, and I need someone to sing a demo for me, so I came to your school to pick someone.”

“Rock style? I’m good at it! Just pick me!”

Lucy stopped in her tracks, turned her head, and confidently said..
