People without real talent can’t handle it well.
By now, Gerard was already very satisfied and pleasantly surprised by Joanna’s voice.
But he hoped she could give him even more surprises.
He didn’t think that the earlier song was difficult enough, and if Joanna could sing this next song well, he could confirm her as his choice.
Joanna hadn’t expected Gerard to ask her to sing a second song.
She thought that, after singing the previous song, Gerard might just say some polite words and ask her to wait for news or something like that.
Anyway, she never thought she could be chosen by Gerard.
Looking at Gerard’s subdued excitement and enthusiasm again, she couldn’t help but feel a little excited as she sensed some possibilities.
"I can sing it." Joanna clenched her fists, trying to suppress her inner excitement. She adjusted the microphone, cleared her throat, and began to sing again.
Compared to the previous song, the one she was singing now was more suitable for a cappella.
It was quite challenging for ordinary people.
But for Joanna, she could handle it with ease.
She only sang half of it before Gerard told her to stop.
Joanna didn’t know what he meant and looked at Gary White helplessly.
"Gerard, just say it directly," Gary White said straightforwardly. "Yes or no? Just one word."
Gerard was also very direct, nodding his head: "Not bad, it’s her."
"Yes, when can she start recording the album?"
"This girl just took on one of my films, so I don’t think she’ll have much time lately. Let her record the album when she has less work on her hands. What do you think?"
"Well, that’s fine too. Good things are worth waiting for, and I can wait for her."
"Alright, shall we consider it settled then?"
Joanna, who was standing nearby: "..."
It seemed like she, the person involved, hadn’t even given her opinion,
yet they had already settled everything as if it had nothing to do with her.
Although she would never refuse or anything, wouldn’t it be more proper to ask her first?
"Joanna, what do you think?" The two men who had already discussed the matter seemed to suddenly remember that there was still her, and turned their heads to look at her, asking for her opinion.
Joanna: "...I have no problem."
"Alright, then this matter is settled."
Gary White, standing beside her, patted her head, looking pleased: "I knew you could do it. Work together with Gerard to create a great album, and it’ll definitely sell well."
"Hmph, which album I’ve ever produced hasn’t sold well?" Gerard said with an arrogant face. "With my years of experience promoting talents, if I can’t make this girl popular, I might as well have wasted all these years and quit the industry."
"I’ve prepared this album for a full three years, and every song in it is a masterpiece."
"I’m confident that when the album comes out, it’ll definitely be my most stunning work."
Gary White crooked his lip, noncommittal about Gerard’s confidence: "Of course, I’ve never doubted your abilities. Every song you’ve worked on is a masterpiece. It’s an honor for Joanna to sing your work."
