Thinking of this, Zhu Hongsheng immediately changed his tone to a serious one: "Sister, don't be depressed. Brother Bo brought you here, and he definitely can't let you stand here and kick the wall, right?"
He gestured to Tu Nian to follow him two steps forward, and confidently opened the door of the "Popular" karaoke room.
As the door opened, a clear and clean soprano voice came from inside, hitting Tu Nian's head.
Zhu Hongsheng raised his hand to smooth down his bird's nest-like hair: "From today on, Teacher Tia will be fully responsible for your vocal practice."
When Tu Nian entered, Teacher Tia's vocal practice had not yet finished. Zhu Hongsheng had instructed Tu Nian not to interrupt her while she was teaching, and then he closed the door and left.
She stood in front of the door for a full ten minutes. Although she had never been exposed to what the teacher taught, just by listening to it once, the glint in her eyes became brighter and brighter.
Tia signaled the artists to take a break. She grabbed the water at her feet, sat down on the leather chair, crossed her legs, and glanced at the door. "Newcomer?"
"Yes!" Tu Nian replied.
Tia saw Tu Nian's eager expression. She looked at the hopeful light in the girl's eyes and her heart moved slightly.
She looked away, lowered her head and took a sip of water: "Go join them, we'll continue in ten minutes."
Tu Nian sat down beside the crowd. Everyone's uniform white T-shirts and training pants looked so pleasing to the eye.
She took a quick look at the crowd and found that most of them were familiar faces she had seen online.
The woman with curly hair and shiny white skin sitting in the middle was probably an actress. She had seen her poster in Lin Ke’s drama list two days ago.
The person sitting next to her was someone she actually knew. Shuangsheng, a genuine ancient Chinese music singer, wasn't too old, probably around fifteen or sixteen, and his empathy was widely recognized within the industry.
The artists knew each other quite well and chatted a few words in their spare time, all about interesting things in the entertainment industry. Tu Nian didn't think of interrupting, but just sat aside and listened, finding it quite interesting.
Ten minutes later, Tia stood up, and the other artists immediately fell silent and stood up, staring straight ahead as if facing a formidable enemy. Tu Nian was a little slower, but he followed suit.
Tia stood at the front of the karaoke room, holding a small stick she got from somewhere in her hand: "Stand up straight." Everyone in the room immediately stood like trees on the sidewalk, their movements were uniform and no one was putting on airs.
Tia wasn't very tall, just over 1.60 meters. While not particularly beautiful, she had a fantastic figure and exuded a confident and proud air. She wore a white, cropped short-sleeved top that perfectly showcased her pert bust, her waistline clearly visible, and her training pants, which stretched her legs, made them appear incredibly long.
"Since there's a new person here today, let's go through our course from the beginning. Newbie," Tia glanced at Tu Nian from a distance, and Tu Nian suddenly felt the pressure around him rise a lot. "One time, is there any problem?"
This was exactly what Tu Nian wanted. Her heart was pounding, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up, even the decibel of her voice inadvertently increased by a few degrees.
"no problem!"
"very good."
Tia calmly walked to the piano. "First, lip trill. Close and relax your lips, exhale, and blow your lips. Repeat the scale this way."
After saying that, she casually played a basic vocal scale.
As she put down the piano, the room was soon filled with the sound of "pop, pop, pop", which sounded very funny.
Tu Nianyuan hadn't quite grasped the meaning of her words, but when he heard it, he immediately understood and joined in the funny "bubububu" training the next moment.
After she finished singing the scale once, Tia saw that she seemed to be at ease, so she singled her out and continued to play a few more scales.
In the next few minutes, Tia's piano sound and Tu Nian's "pop pop" sound alternated back and forth in the room. She played the entire octave in succession, and it was not until she played the second octave that Tu Nian's voice gradually became labored.
The piano stopped playing, and Tia looked at Tu Nian. She lowered her chin, which had always been high, and nodded for the first time: "You are not bad."
However, her first attempt at lip trilling was enough to surpass those amateurs. Although there was still a big gap between her and professional singers, Tia was at least sure that this newcomer assigned to her had a good foundation in music.
But Tia considered Tu Nian's performance merely decent. After praising her, she continued, "The second part is humming. Stabilize your larynx, swallow your saliva, and feel your swallowing muscles, relaxing them as much as possible without tightening them. Feel the direction of the sound and control it to come out of your nasal cavity."
Humming is obviously more difficult than lip trilling. Tu Nian's vocal range is quite wide, but even so, she struggled to keep up with Tia's piano. After practicing about three or five scales, she still couldn't actively relax her swallowing muscles, so she observed the twins around her and other artists who had practiced for a while.
…
The whole practice lasted for more than twenty minutes, until Tu Nian felt her throat was a little tired. Tia seemed to understand her thoughts and let them rest at the right time.
Tu Nian hadn't practiced this intensely in a long time. Usually in the bar, Tang Zhe would ask her to choose songs that weren't too demanding on her voice. This kind of practice was definitely pushing the limits of her vocal range. If she couldn't break through, she would just keep singing until she reached that limit.
At this time, after all the hard work, she felt a little uncomfortable in her throat and urgently needed something to drink to relieve the burning sensation in her throat.
She hadn't expected to have such a good opportunity to practice her vocals, so she hadn't bought any water. There wasn't a water dispenser or bottled water in the karaoke room, so she could only swallow from time to time, but it didn't help the discomfort in her throat.
The feeling of something stuck in her throat suddenly made her feel an uncontrollable tension in her heart. She tried to swallow several times but failed. She was almost choked to death by the non-existent saliva.
Just as her face was flushed with anger, a small hand with fair and tender skin reached out from the side, holding a miniature mineral water bottle.
Tu Nian didn't care about being polite and quickly took the water and drank it in one gulp. She drank about 200 milliliters of drinking water in just a few gulps.
"Drink slowly,"
The little hand patted her back again, "You're a singer too, so you should know that drinking water too quickly is not good for your vocal cords."
Tu Nian turned her head and saw that the owner of the hand was the twin who had been sitting next to her. He was now looking at Tu Nian and smiling sweetly.
The twins are even cuter in person than in the photos. Their eyes look very similar to Yu Wen Yi Yi’s, both of which are big and watery like deer eyes.
I don’t know if it’s because they haven’t fully grown yet, but the other facial features of the twins look very small and cute.
