Zhang Shulan wasn't interested in the food. She symbolically picked up a glass of red wine and then led everyone to watch from that direction.
The top songwriter and composer of the small town of Sun Crown is challenging Chen Shaoyan. The two have already written the lyrics, since they are both drafts and it won't take too long to finish them.
The recording segment that will really take some time is next.
The music hall is equipped with 12 recording studios, which can accommodate 6 groups of people to communicate and challenge each other at the same time.
Chen Shaoyan remained completely unfazed by the challenge from Xiaocheng Hughes, and he didn't even consider this little guy a worthy opponent.
He has been depressed lately.
There aren't many people he considers rivals; Zhang Zhenyuan is one, and Li Zhaoyang from the previous Zhaixing incident is another.
So even when the recording was finished and the show started playing, Chen Shaoyan remained calm and composed.
In the end, without any surprise, the small town of Hughes was defeated.
Most of the people present are the most professional in the industry, so there is no need for judges.
You can generally judge the quality of a piece of music just by listening to it play.
"Teacher Chen Shaoyan is indeed very skilled; he can even outperform the ace of Japan." Hua Nongying tugged at Zhao Anlan's arm: "Anlan, go ask Teacher Wanting when it's her turn to start the challenge."
No sooner said than done.
After their defeat in the small town of Hughes, the American music scene's vortex duo Aris directly challenged Chan Yuen-ting of Sunset Records.
These top songwriters aim to win the crown; losing one or two matches won't have much of an impact on them.
The first round of warm-up exchanges is now basically over. After Chen Wanting was challenged, she only took two minutes to adjust before calling Hua Nongying to go directly to the recording studio.
Even the songwriting step has been skipped.
Ultimately, the work will need to be played out anyway.
"Alright!" Hua Nongying then displayed a very cunning side.
This is a time when everyone is watching, especially since Teacher Chen Wanting called out to her.
Many industry professionals nearby glanced in this direction.
Hua Nongying thought she was very beautiful, so she unconsciously raised her head and even subconsciously pushed An Lan away a little, and walked towards the recording studio from the center position.
She even noticed Li Zhaoyang in the crowd, which intensified her sense of pride.
She didn't know why she felt so eager to show off when she saw Li Zhaoyang.
Perhaps it was because she and Zhao Anlan were rejected when they went to Li Zhaoyang's house to buy gifts that time?
The next day, Li Zhaoyang even asked someone to send the gift back.
"Teacher Zhaoyang, why do I feel like that singer was a little pretentious?" Zhao Tianhe said. "Could it be just my imagination?"
Li Zhaoyang smiled but remained silent, not answering Tianhe's question.
About ten minutes later, Chen Wanting and Hua Nongying walked out of the recording studio, followed closely by Aris.
The two collaborative works were completed and played back via audio.
This way of exchanging ideas is indeed unlike a competition; it's both solemn and casual.
After both songs were played, the American music industry representative responsible for calculating the odds of winning remained undecided.
Because their two works are of similar quality.
Ultimately, after discussions among top songwriters, Aris's work was chosen as the superior choice.
"Nongying, it's alright. When aces clash, there are winners and losers." Zhao Anlan thought Hua Nongying would be upset.
Unexpectedly, a strange emotion crept onto her face.
Hua Nongying was thinking about how to befriend these senior musicians.
After the exchange ends, I'll find an opportunity to get to know the top aces of combinations like Corona, Trend, and Vortex.
Perhaps we can expand to include foreign language songs in the future.
Hua Nongying considered herself to have foreign language experience.
This kind of woman is very clever and rarely feels depressed. In such a short time, she has found a way to expand her network.
In the next half hour, these three combinations won two more games, and they completely went into a frenzy.
They almost never stopped targeting whichever ace had the biggest reputation.
Many people have realized that the combination of Corona, Trend, and Vortex is a strategy to win the crown.
Many singers at the scene were captivated by the performance.
Which singer wouldn't want to get to know a songwriter like this?
"The Chinese music scene is sick and weak." Corona's Little City Hughes slowly pointed his thumb down: "In such a large Chinese music scene, only Chen Shaoyan and Zhang Zhenyuan are decent. The rest are all weaklings."
A single sentence from a songwriter from Japan left the Chinese music scene speechless.
The president of the Chinese music scene, who had been sitting there drinking, was chatting with an old friend when he was shocked by what Xiao Cheng Hughes said.
Isn't this supposed to be an exchange festival?
Why is it even provocative?
"Go and handle this." The president's gaze fell on Yu Jingkang and the vice presidents.
Several vice presidents understood immediately and led a group of top songwriters to meet the challenge.
They hadn't yet realized the determination of those three groups to win the championship.
Yu Jingkang even had Lin Linlin take action.
He was talking to Dave from Vortex, who won an ace at 36 and is now 42, with his songwriting skills reaching new heights.
Without any warning.
Lin Linlin lost.
The vice presidents from other provinces also sent out their top talents.
They lost again in the end.
At this point, everyone was shocked to discover that Corona, Trend, and Vortex had more than one manuscript in their possession.
Each person plays more than two songs.
Even Xiaocheng Xiusi, who had lost to Chen Shaoyan once, still had drafts in hand, which directly overwhelmed a 43-year-old female ace songwriter.
"Sigh, the Chinese music scene is even weaker than I imagined. Forget it, let's switch to another music scene. We can't keep focusing on this bunch of weaklings." Xiao Cheng Hughes sneered, and his words broke many people's defenses.
"Damn it." Tang Gang's fist hardened. "Vice President, what should we do? Should we ask Teacher Chen Shaoyan to take action again?"
Yu Jingkang glared at him fiercely: "Chen Shaoyan is at least maintaining a 100% win rate now, which is his last line of defense. What if he loses in another match? Then his last line of defense will be gone."
After saying that, Yu Jingkang walked to Zhang Zhenyuan's side and asked, "Teacher Zhang, do you still have any drafts left?"
“There’s one more song.” Zhang Zhenyuan has a gentle and refined appearance. Although he is in his early 30s, he doesn’t have the greasiness of middle age.
"Are you confident you can win at least once?" Yu Jingkang asked.
Zhang Zhenyuan shook his head: "I'm only 50% confident, after all, our opponents are all aces."
Although he and Chen Shaoyan are strong, these foreign songwriters are clearly well-prepared.
"Alright, alright, let's take a break for a bit. Look how tense the Chinese music scene is." Xiao Cheng Xiu Si didn't press the issue further, which achieved his goal. He then followed the people behind him to a long rectangular table to enjoy the food and wine.
By this time, many singers from various countries had come to the three groups, Corona, Trend, and Vortex, to try and get to know them.
"An Lan, shall we go and get to know her?" Hua Nongying didn't want to miss this important opportunity to expand her network.
However, Zhao Anlan had her bottom line: "Let's forget it. They just humiliated the Chinese music scene. If we go and get to know them directly, we'll easily be isolated."
"Don't take this so seriously. It's just an exchange, making friends through our work." Hua Nongying didn't care about any of that: "Are you going or not?"
"I'm not going." Zhao Anlan couldn't bear the embarrassment.
"If you're not going, I will." Hua Nongying walked to the table, picked up her wine glass, and waited for the right opportunity to leave.
