Lu Wantang raised an eyebrow.
Just as I was about to say something, Liu Liu's rather smug voice appeared in my mind:
"How dare you doubt what Tangtang said! Don't you even know whose host Tangtang is! With Tangtang here, she can definitely overcome all obstacles!"
The words Lu Wantang wanted to say suddenly got stuck in her throat.
"What has Liu Liu been watching lately?" she couldn't help but ask herself.
"I saw it, uh, I think it was called something like God of War, all these novels have similar titles, I can't quite remember."
Lu Wantang: "..."
Got it, he's been reading too many novels featuring arrogant protagonists.
Since Liu Liu became more emotionally expressive, she started surfing the internet, often spending days and nights binge-watching dramas and reading novels, becoming a true internet addict.
If it weren't a system without a physical form, it probably would have died out long ago.
"You suddenly started talking? Did you finish reading the novel?" Lu Wantang looked calmly at the chibi-style figure in mid-air.
Liu Liu scratched his head, "Hehe, let me check the progress of the competition first..."
Meeting Lu Wantang's calm gaze, which seemed to see through everything, he smiled ingratiatingly again:
"Ahem, there were a few side quests earlier, I forgot to remind you of them via pop-up notifications..."
Lu Wantang sighed and, without waiting for the unreliable system to finish speaking, directly opened the task panel.
At the top of the panel, the progress of the main quest is still displayed.
The following is the task for winning the championship of "Voice of the West".
Further down is the branch of this task.
—They won first place overall in each episode and also won consecutive victories in the title defense match.
Each failed task will deduct energy points.
As the main quest progresses, the amount of energy deducted essentially doubles.
In other words, if Chen Yubai fails to achieve first place in this episode, Lu Wantang will lose millions of energy points.
Lu Wantang narrowed her eyes and first looked at her own panel.
Name: Lu Wantang
Occupation: A-level composer, D-level screenwriter, multi-instrumentalist
Skills: Composition (Level A), Screenwriting (Level D), Music Appreciation (Expert Level), Film and Television Appreciation (Expert Level), Piano (Expert Level), Guitar (Advanced Level), Violin (Advanced Level), Erhu (Advanced Level), Guzheng (Advanced Level), Pipa (Advanced Level), Bamboo Flute (Advanced Level)...
Energy value:
The remaining energy value is still over 30 million.
This is still based on the premise that it is growing every moment.
It must be said that the subsequent costs of redeeming works that meet the requirements are enormous.
Therefore, Lu Wantang felt very distressed about the loss of millions.
This feeling was simultaneously conveyed to Liu Liu Liu.
Perhaps because there have been too many precedents, Liu Liu has already been able to understand the unspoken meaning behind Lu Wantang's words at this moment.
It coughed twice to make itself look serious.
"Um, I didn't mention this side quest, so instead of deducting energy points as punishment, let's reduce it—"
Before it could utter the word 'half,' upon meeting Lu Wantang's unwavering gaze, it immediately said:
"Let's reduce it by ten times."
In any case, Lu Wantang's 'work' efficiency is very high, and the main storyline progress has already exceeded its expectations.
A considerable amount of energy has been accumulated to maintain the system's operation.
Helping to share some of the cost is no big deal.
but--
The chibi-style character put on a stern face: "This is a one-time exception, and there will be no next time."
"Oh~" Lu Wantang's voice became meaningful, "If you don't remember the pop-up notification next time..."
"Absolutely not!"
Liu Liu raised three fingers to swear.
"Even if the novel is incredibly good, I won't!"
Lu Wantang nodded slightly: "Then I'll trust you for now!"
Liu Liu was deeply moved: "It's so good that you believe me!"
After saying that, his expression froze, and he raised his hand to scratch his head. "Why does something feel off?"
Shouldn't he be reminding the host to complete the task on time?
Why do their roles seem to have been reversed?
Lu Wantang smiled slightly and closed the system panel before Liu Liu could react.
The conversation between the two lasted less than a minute.
Chang Yun, who was standing to the side, raised his head:
"Whether it's ancient style or opera singing, it can indeed represent the richer cultural heritage of other continents, but this song is not as typical as 'Exploring the Window' and 'East Wind Breaks'."
“We don’t want the typical,” Lu Wantang explained. “We want the ‘first experience’ of the Western Continent audience.”
Since this is a 'first experience', we can't make it too difficult.
"Guanshan Wine" is a perfect introductory song to the ancient style music genre. It is of moderate difficulty, and the melody and rhythm are easy to grasp.
Chang Yun nodded in understanding.
"Oh, right." Lu Wantang remembered something and turned her gaze back from the stage.
"Later, I'll have to trouble Brother Yun to remind Chen Yubai to find an opportunity to give an interview after the live broadcast. The media will definitely ask him about the song selection, so you need to tell him how to answer..."
Lu Wantang lowered her voice, and Chang Yun listened while taking notes in her memo.
“They might not be able to answer the phone, so I’ll go wait for him outside the lounge.”
Chang Yun left as soon as he finished speaking, without any hesitation.
The voting period for Chen Yubai had ended.
Louis was the sixth to take the stage.
He's in incredibly good shape right now.
His biggest rival, Cleifia, made a mistake, which gave him hope of taking first place.
Chen Yubai, the "dark horse," made a mistake in choosing a song, which boosted his confidence!
In addition, the song he was going to sing was his own new song that was about to be released, and it was the title track of his new album. He had practiced it for a long time before the competition, so his familiarity with it was already off the charts.
Even though it wasn't rock or rap, which are his strengths, Louis sang even more steadily than he would in the recording studio, thanks to the combined effects of these factors.
There wasn't a single mistake or oversight from beginning to end.
The high notes were relaxed and natural throughout, with almost no breathing sounds. The sound pressure and pitch were incredibly stable, making it sound like a 'walking CD'.
Based on this song alone, Louis has surpassed at least 95% of singers in the industry, which is an absolute 'lower dimension' for most singers.
His exceptional performance earned him thunderous applause.
[Ignoring the first two songs, Louis's performance tonight was absolutely perfect! His vocal intelligence was off the charts!]
[From the intro alone, I knew it wasn't rock. I thought Louis was trying to avoid the limelight of metal bands and take a different path, which would make his performance even worse than before. I didn't expect it to be so amazing!]
[Who says Louis is better at rock and rap? His pop singing is flawless!]
[If Louis can maintain this form, he will definitely be the next King of the West!]
[After listening to the first two songs, I didn't quite understand why you all said that Louis's talent was second only to Clementa, but now I understand.]
[Honestly, Louis should really consider switching tracks; let metal bands handle rock.]
……
The comments were mostly positive about Louis's performance.
Inside Chen Yubai's private lounge, the atmosphere became quite tense after seeing Louis's performance.
