After today's recording session, Iris and Enrique came out of the studio's live room to the control room where JJ and the technicians waited for them. JJ handed each of them a bottle of room temperature water.
"Good job today, both of you!" JJ said.
"Thanks," Iris replied with a smile.
Enrique acknowledged him with a polite nod.
"Let's go eat out and celebrate since it's our first day of recording this album," JJ announced. "I already booked a restaurant."
"Okay, but let me call my husband first to let him know," she said.
JJ gave her a mocking snort. "Just tell your husband to come, too! But there will be drinking, so don't bring the babies!"
Iris didn't mind his bad temper. She knew that although he spoke like this, he doted on her children very much.
In fact, JJ was already looking forward to when the twins would grow up. He hoped that they inherited their mother's talent in music. If he was still alive by the time they wanted to pursue a music career, he wanted to help produce their first album.
When he shared this dream with her hoping to get her approval, she only shrugged and told him that it was up to her children whether they wanted to follow in her footsteps in music or not.
If they did become musicians in the future, then she and her husband would of course support them. But if not, it didn't matter. She and Jin Liwei would always support their children in whatever they wished to pursue as long as they didn't do anything harmful to themselves, others, and society.
JJ only snorted at her answer and didn't insist anymore.
Back to the present, Iris already finished calling Jin Liwei. After hearing that JJ said that it was fine for him to come, Jin Liwei didn't hesitate to do so.
The musicians and other staff working on the album cheered when they heard that their boss, JJ, was treating them to dinner today. The musicians were especially happy and relieved to have a chance to unwind after an exhausting workday.
Most of them had worked with Iris Long before. They already knew about her meticulous work style and her pursuit of her own vision of perfection. Working with her was definitely not for the faint-hearted.
To be honest, she was even tougher to work with than the bad-tempered JJ. She wasn't a tyrant in any sense, but her attention to the smallest details could get exhausting. They had to be in perfect condition all the time because if not, then she would never feel satisfied and the recording wouldn't stop.
At the same time, they loved working with her because her passion for music was something that they also resonated with very much. They didn't expect to learn so many new things from someone so much younger than them.
It was no wonder that she was a multi-award-winning musician. She deserved all the awards she won and more.
Now that Enrique Valdez was added to the equation, they all agreed with JJ calling this album a legendary dream collaboration. Every single one of them felt lucky to be part of this project.
Throughout the day, they also experienced Enrique Valdez's focused and meticulous style. Together with Iris Long, the musicians and everyone working on the project felt the need to always maintain their best conditions. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Enrique Valdez might have left most people with the impression that he was the silent, brooding type, but everyone discovered today that he was actually fierce when working on music.
