"Wow! Commissioner Jiang, you are so fast. How long has it been before your new order has been completed?"
Looking at the USB flash drive in her hand, Xiang Ping looked happily at the handsome forty-year-old man in front of her.
The theme song for Westlake Animation's animated film called "The Return of Wukong" is installed on this USB flash drive. In a matter of days, Commissioner Jiang created the song from scratch, from arranging to recording to singing. All done...
Geniuses are really omnipotent. In the past, the production process of custom songs like this would take at least more than a month, and that would have to be under the condition that the creator is bursting with inspiration. How did Uncle Kan grow up with this brain?
The little girl stared at Jiang Kan with reverence, until the uncle looked embarrassed before she withdrew her scorching gaze.
It's July 28th now.
Because if this song is adopted by the other party, it will be immediately released as a promotional video for the animated movie "The Return of Goku".
That is, on August 1st, this song will have a good chance of being added to the August new song rankings.
In this way, Jiang Kan himself can sing his new song in the rematch of "The Voice of the Trend" in August.
Because of its unique melody and dramatic singing style, Jiang Kan believes that it will bring a brand new dramatic whirlwind to the current Xia Guo singing scene, which will surprise many people.
Seeing the little girl go out happily, Jiang Kan felt very satisfied.
I didn't expect that there is such an amazing dramatic song in the system's music library. Mr. Zhang from Yanjing will probably be very happy now.
"Ding!"
Just as Jiang Kan was imagining the surprise of the kind old men at the Drama Association when they first heard the song "Wukong", the system's notification tone suddenly sounded in his ears.
"It has been detected that the song "When Will There Be a Bright Moon" sung by the host has passed the preliminary round of the new variety show "Voice of Trend", and the completion conditions of the task [passing the preliminary round] have been met!"
"Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: 1 random music treasure chest!"
"Excuse me, host, would you like to open the treasure chest now?"
"Oh? This mission has been completed?"
Jiang Kan looked at the virtual white treasure box that was constantly spinning in front of him with joy, and felt happy from the sky!
Recently, the tasks issued by the system are not as frequent as before. Every treasure box is a valuable reward worth cherishing for him.
"May I ask the host to open the treasure chest now?"
Seeing that Jiang Kan didn't respond to him, the system patiently asked again.
"Open the treasure chest!"
Jiang Kan rubbed his hands and shouted expectantly.
"Okay, the random music treasure chest is being opened, please wait."
"Opening..."
"Opening completed, congratulations to the host for getting the song: "Midnight Serenade"."
"Do you want to give it a try?"
"Listen to it!"
Jiang Kan closed the door to the specialist's office, sat back in his executive chair, assumed a comfortable posture, and spoke to the system.
"Okay, start playing."
As the system finished speaking, a melodious and poignant violin sound instantly appeared in his mind. .z.br>
The cold sound of the piano is like the cold moonlight shining on the vast land. The faint silver moonlight makes the insomniac look at the crescent moon in the sky, missing the figure in the distance that he will never see again, and his heart is filled with sorrow.
"Still leaning on the sleepless night, looking at the stars in the sky,
I still hear the violin, weeping and teasing..."
The singing voice comes from a male singer about thirty years old.
His voice, like the cold violin sound, was also so cold and cold, without much warmth.
The tone of the whole song tends to be cold, which makes people feel like they are bathing in the light of a cold moon, lonely, desolate and helpless.
"Why is there only a crescent moon left?
Stay in my sky, there will be no audio from this night..."
The singing continued, and the despair and helplessness in the lyrics were clearly revealed.
"People are like the bright moon in the sky, they cannot be owned
Love is like a song, only what remains after passing by, irreparable, no longer parting
Why is it just disappointment, filling my emptiness?
This night, there was no kiss goodbye..."
Jiang Kan held his ears with both hands and slowly closed his eyes at some point.
This low-pitched melody suited his taste very well. Although the overall atmosphere of the song seemed very deserted and desolate, he could still feel that the singer's voice contained a strong emotion, brewing and waiting. break out.
Sure enough, the following lyrics were just like what he expected, bursting out suddenly in the singer's constantly accumulating and brewing atmosphere, causing a "Sure enough" smile to appear on the corner of Jiang Kan's originally serious face.
After 4 minutes and 48 seconds, "Half Moon Serenade" finished playing.
Jiang Kan still maintained the same posture as before, savoring the aftertaste of the song like a glass of fine wine.
"What a great song."
He resisted the urge to listen again and let the system return to the void.
But the cry filled with fiery emotions at the climax of the song left him unable to calm down for a long time.
""Midnight Serenade" Ha~"
He pinched his chin thoughtfully and repeated the song title.
"And it's a Cantonese song. The style should be a pop song from the Xiangjiang region of Xia Country on Earth. It has a very ancient southern Cantonese flavor. I believe the judges in the Xia Nan Division will be very interested in it."
Just as Jiang Kan was thinking about how to release this song, the system's voice sounded in his mind again.
"Ding!"
"It has been detected that the host has passed the preliminary screening of "Voice of Trend" and entered the semi-finals. This system hereby releases a new advanced task: [Pass the semi-finals]!"
"Complete this task and you will be rewarded: a random skill treasure chest. Does the host accept this task?"
"Yo? Is this really a series of missions?"
Jiang Kan opened his mouth in surprise. When the system first released the task [passing the preliminary round], he had a hunch that there would be a follow-up later, but he didn't expect it to be true!
And now the main source of his songs has become ordering from the money-crazed system, and the expenses are getting bigger and bigger. Now that he finally got a new task, he is naturally very happy.
"Of course I accept it!"
He accepted the task without giving the system a chance to regret it.
"This month is the rematch, but if I sing "Wukong" in the rematch, it shouldn't be difficult to pass the selection."
Jiang Kan smacked his mouth and continued to analyze to himself.
"The difficulty lies in the finals. It's really about competing on the same stage with the elites from all over the country who have passed the semi-finals. It's completely different from the difficulty of the preliminary rounds, and the range of song selection is also limited to the new song list of the month. Among the top twenty..."
He put his elbows on the table and placed his chin on the back of his folded hands, thinking about the follow-up process of his game.
"I only have one song "Wukong" that will be released in August. If I want to release new songs every week like in "Xia Guo Good Singer", firstly, I have to ensure that I can have so many new songs. Secondly, I have to ensure that my new song is in the top twenty of the charts during the week I compete..."
"Hey, this is a bit difficult!"
The time soon came to August 1st.
In the past half month, the "Voice of Trend" program team has received a total of more than 100,000 registered songs from the five competition regions.
This is very difficult for the judges in each competition area. There are only five judges in each competition area, which means that the twenty-five judges will be responsible for 100,000 submitted songs, and each judge will have to deal with more than 4,000 songs.
Fortunately, these judges are all well-known musicians. They use their authority or influence to a small extent, or pay people to hire others. After all, they still review the songs assigned to them.
The so-called review is to screen out those contributors who are tone-deaf, off-key, or simply playing some weird sounds as a prank.
Then the remaining songs will be screened carefully by the judges themselves, and the songs that they think are qualified to enter the semi-finals will be kept, and those songs that are just ordinary lovers that are not out of tune and not unpleasant to listen to will be retained. Works continue to be eliminated.
After all, this is the first time that the organizing committee has held such a program with unlimited participation. There is no domestic or foreign experience to refer to, and it can only cross the river by feeling for the stones. Until now, it seems that it has not encountered any major problems.
There are a total of 1825 songs that have passed the preliminary round. These 1825 lucky people can enter the next stage of the competition. They will also have a rematch in their respective divisions that will last until August 15th.
This time, these semi-finalists will come to a separated room to sing, and then on the other side of the room will be five judges from this competition area to score these singers.
Based on a 10-point system, the total score of the player will be calculated, and then four final winners from each division will be selected before August 15th to participate in the subsequent finals.
From 100,000 people to 1825 people, to 20 people, it can be said that it is a competition with a huge elimination rate. Only players with truly absolute strength and a considerable degree of luck can reach this final stage.
"Eh? That's strange. After listening to it so many times, why can't I find Jiang Kan's work? Could it be that he voted for other competitions?"
Liu Yiliang, one of the judges in the Xia Nan competition area, was scratching his hair curiously in his workroom.
He is very optimistic about Jiang Kan's prospects of participating, and has always been very interested in what songs he will sing during the competition.
Therefore, he has been telling the gadgets that help him to review Jiang Kan's singing voice, and if any works suspected of having his voice are found, they should be marked and let him review them himself.
But after twenty days of review, he still couldn't find Jiang Kan's submitted song.
"It's really strange. My ears are so good, there's no way I can't hear his voice..."
He looked at the list of more than seventy approved songs on the screen and muttered to himself.
This is a screening result shared by the five judges in the Xia Nan competition area. All the songs that have been passed by them will be summarized on a public server for everyone to see.
He had listened to each of these more than seventy songs in person, but he just couldn't find that familiar voice.
"There is only one possibility, and that is that he voted in another division, otherwise it would be impossible not to be screened out."
After figuring this out, Liu Yiliang stopped worrying.
The characteristics of the voices he heard this time were more prominent, and he could basically identify two famous singers.
Mu Zhidan, and Jiang Miaomiao.
There was another voice that he was not sure about, but he had more than half a probability that the singer should be Liu Jingyu.
It was basically impossible to tell the difference between the other singers, but basically he estimated that the finalists in the Xia Nan competition would be these few people. After being a first-line singer for so many years, he still had some artistic bacteria.
"Speaking of which, Wang Yuchang became a disciple of Jiang Kan some time ago and came to live in Yangcheng. It stands to reason that he is also from Lingnan, so why didn't he apply for our Xianan Division?"
"Phew, I'm exhausted. I've finally screened out all the submissions that can pass the preliminary round. Next time I take on this kind of laborious job of deceiving fools, I will take his surname as Huang Shengcai!"
Zhao Yu looked at the long list of songs on the computer screen in front of him and finally took a long breath.
"You all have worked hard. Let's arrange a time to go to a farmhouse in the suburbs and have some fun. Each of you will be given a shopping card to buy some supplements to replenish your spirits~"
Surrounded by a circle of tired and paralyzed people
The tool man, Zhao Yu, is actually quite embarrassed because he has troubled so many people even though it is his own business.
"Hey, Sister Zhao is the best!"
The trainees started cheering happily when they heard that they had food, fun and food to play with.
Of course, there is also the gratitude from Sister Zhao, which is more attractive than any reward.
"Well... among the participating singers in the Northern Division, the only ones I can recognize are Hu Yuyong and Lizixing. Their voices are so recognizable, but as for the others..."
Zhao Yu looked at the song list on the screen. In order to prevent collusion and cheating, the music files given by the organizing committee only had numbers and no names. This also effectively eliminated many favor transactions and made being a judge less tiring.
"This competition only allows second-tier singers and below to participate. Otherwise, I would also like to try..."
Zhao Yu felt a sense of loss at the thought of not being able to compete on the same stage with a singer he admired very much. GRD Huang Shengcai and Jiang Linlin didn't know what they were thinking. Why can't the queen participate in this new variety show?
Zhao Yu complained in her heart. She was not really interested in this new show, but felt that the previous "Xia Guo Good Singer" ended too quickly. She didn't even have enough fun, and the show ended. .
"I wonder what kind of surprises Jiang Kan will bring us in this new variety show?"
After waving to say hello to the trainees who were leaving, Zhao Yu turned her eyes to the bright scenery outside the window. She put one hand on her smooth chin and thought in a daze.
