Chapter 482: Composing in Seclusion
This was Jiang Qin's first time in this world returning to the territory of the Mechanical Clan, so everything along the way was quite novel.
In fact, most of them are similar to the central city of the Federation’s main planet.
The difference is that it is more mechanized.
You can also see many orcs on the streets, most of them are tourists, and most of them are members of the mechanical tribe.
"Everyone, please follow me." The male mechanical man in charge of reception took everyone on a sightseeing bus.
Of course, this bus is also suspended, so they can overlook the entire city from mid-air.
After arriving at the hotel, Jiang Qin found that the conditions were quite good.
This time, the Mechanical Clan not only invited composers, but also many singers.
These singers do not participate in the ranking and do not receive any rewards, but they receive invitation fees as guests.
Although there is no benefit, some popular singers still come, if for no other reason than to be able to establish relationships with veteran composers.
If we get one or two good songs by then, they might become classics for decades.
Some singers who were not qualified to be invited even used their connections and bribed themselves to be invited.
…
After a good night's sleep, the mechanical tribe arranged a tour guide for each composer the next day.
The competition will not start until three days later, so someone will accompany them to play here for three days.
Cang Hong also came here as an invited singer this time, but the singers were not assigned tour guides, only the composers were.
At this moment, he was holding Zhao Zhao and following Jiang Qin closely.
Led by the tour guide, they visited many places with mechanical characteristics.
I even visited the robot factory.
They were treated very well for three whole days.
To be honest, Jiang Qin felt that her impression of the mechanical race was better than her original impression of the empire.
After all, she had not forgotten how much the Imperials looked down upon the Federation people in the past.
But now it has calmed down a lot because the cooperation between them is getting closer and closer.
And for her works, even the Internet barriers between the two countries were closed.
So when the composers from both sides met this time, although they ignored each other, no dispute occurred.
But Jiang Qin could see that the veteran composers on both sides were not in agreement with each other.
Lan Yuyan explained to her, "The composers on both sides were composers of the same generation when they were young, so they basically participated in the competition as opponents.
Every fight inevitably leads to some conflicts, which accumulate over time and eventually lead to the situation where both sides dislike each other.
If it weren't for this competition, they would probably never have anything to do with each other again."
After all, they no longer have to represent their respective countries in composer competitions.
If nothing unexpected happened, they would probably never meet again in this life.
I didn't expect that even though I had already retired, I would be recalled by the country.
The two sides have been fighting for most of their lives, and they look down on each other more than the other, but now they are no longer the young people they used to be, and their every move will be closely watched by the outside world.
So they can no longer stand on the roadside and curse at each other for two hours like they did before.
Instead, you have to put on a smile and maintain your dignity.
"Haha, long time no see, Bruce. You seem to have aged a lot. You're starting to get wrinkles on your face."
"No, no, I just think it's better to let nature take its toll, so I didn't go for beauty treatments.
But you, why do your facial muscles seem a little stiff to me?
Listen to my advice, although technology products are good, they are also toxic. Using too much medicine on your face is not good.
Although the two sides cannot have a big quarrel, they can still exchange a few words of yin and yang.
So Jiang Qin, the only young person in the audience, could only be forced to listen to them attacking each other with age.
One side says you are old, the other side says you are not as old as you, one side says you are lonely, and the other side says that being a widow is no different from being lonely.
In short, neither side gave in.
The composer of all races watched the whole show with a sweet smile on his face.
After all, they haven't seen such a joyful scene for twenty or thirty years.
It was not until the Zerg arrived that the composers on both sides quieted down, all looking up and squinting at the group of guys whose faces were as pale as ghosts.
One of the Federation's composers couldn't help but snort coldly, "These days, things are getting weirder and weirder. Even animals can walk on two legs."
"That's right. Something covered in human skin isn't necessarily a human. Who knows, it could be some kind of insect~"
The person who agreed was a composer from the empire.
Jiang Qin saw clearly that it was the two of them who had the most intense quarrel just now.
They are the ones who are now coming out to cooperate and squeeze the Zerg.
Upon hearing this, the Zerg that were possessed by Yin and Yang stared coldly at the two people who had spoken with their non-human compound eyes.
"Do you two have any opinions about us?"
"Haha, Mr. Zerg has misunderstood. We are talking about those strange beasts in human skin. Please do not use code names at will."
"Yeah, those beasts are really bad these days. I don't know where they learned this, but they actually know how to disguise themselves as humans and sneak into the city."
The Zergs didn't say anything. After glancing at everyone present, they walked away.
After this incident, the sworn enemies who had been cross-eyed just now quieted down, curled their lips, and left in disgust.
Jiang Qin followed them silently a little behind them.
***
Inside the competition venue, apart from a large stage in the middle, there are enclosed capsule cabins built all around it.
The cabin is equipped with a bed, a wardrobe, a bathroom and other daily necessities, as well as a small workroom filled with things needed for composing.
The worker bowed and greeted them, then smiled and said, "If you have anything you need for composing, you can take it out first.
You will then live in the capsule for fifteen days, during which time you cannot use your optical computer or space hub."
"What?? Living in a capsule for fifteen days?? And not being able to use the optical computer and space button??
What’s the difference between this and house arrest?
The staff member was not annoyed when questioned, "Sir, we have already written the relevant restrictive regulations into the contract in advance.
If you have any questions, you can look at the contract."
The contracts were all sent by federal officials, and these composers just signed them, and many of them didn't even read them carefully.
But there were a few people who saw it, so they didn't say anything.
Jiang Qin also read it and only signed the contract if she thought it was acceptable.
"If you have no more questions, please cooperate with me."
Although they were unhappy, since they were already here, they could only accept it.
Anyway, it's just like living a closed-off composing life for 15 days.
They would usually choose to retreat when they had inspiration, so it wasn't that they were extremely resistant, they were just not aware of it beforehand and were somewhat dissatisfied.
