Chapter 7 "Loving You"
Old Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard that.
The counselor's biggest fear is that students won't be enthusiastic; if no one signs up, he'll lose face!
"That's great!"
"I knew it! Students in the performing arts department need that kind of drive!"
"What kind of performance would you like to give? A recitation? Or a skit?"
Jiang Bai shook his head: "I want to sing."
"Singing? Sure." Old Zhang picked up his pen to take notes. "Whose songs? Current hits?"
Jiang Bai was silent for a second.
Then, with a righteous expression, he said:
"It's an original work."
"I want to sing a song that I wrote myself."
The air was quiet for a second.
Old Zhang's hand holding the pen paused.
He looked up in surprise and took a closer look at the freshman in front of him.
Original?
It's important to understand that while the music scene is currently in a slump, not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can write songs.
Moreover, he is a freshman who has just entered university.
Usually, these so-called original works are mostly meaningless, whiny lyrics paired with a few random chords.
Old Zhang wanted to offer some advice and suggest he switch to a safer song.
But he saw the confidence in Jiang Bai's eyes.
That was absolute confidence in one's own work.
Moreover, the students at the Shanghai Theatre Academy are indeed full of hidden talents, with several geniuses emerging every year.
What if this kid really is a genius?
"Original content is great! That shows ambition!"
Instead of discouraging him, Lao Zhang nodded in agreement.
What's the song called?
Jiang Bai remained expressionless and uttered two words:
""Love you"."
"Love you?" Old Zhang was taken aback, then laughed. "It's a love song? Okay, young people, love and romance are normal."
"Is it that...so-and-so's sad love song?"
Jiang Bai shook his head, his eyes deep:
"No."
"It's a sweet song."
"Those kinds of sweet songs...sweet enough to make your teeth ache."
Although Lao Zhang felt it was a bit incongruous for a grown man to sing such a sweet and saccharine song, he didn't ask any further questions.
After all, art should be inclusive.
"Okay, I've registered you."
"I'm going to the school auditorium at 6 PM the day after tomorrow to participate in the preliminary selection."
"Remember to bring your accompaniment, prepare well, and don't embarrass our class!"
"Okay, teacher, don't worry."
Jiang Bai smiled slightly, then turned and left.
The moment I stepped out of the classroom.
He gazed at the setting sun outside the window, as if he could see that million dollars beckoning to him.
As for integrity?
What is that?
Can you eat?
As long as the money is right, even a fragile heart will shatter!
Forget about cross-dressing, I'd even be willing to let him win five million every day!
..........
The night is getting darker.
The lights in room 404 were still bright.
Although there is air conditioning, the airflow is too weak to completely dispel the hot air.
The roommates' hearts seemed even warmer than their bodies.
Su Ze lay on the table, the light from his phone screen reflecting on his face, which was filled with a thirst for knowledge.
His fingers flew across the forum page, and he would exclaim in surprise every few seconds.
"Absolutely amazing! Absolutely amazing!"
"Brothers, breaking news! That post has over a thousand replies!"
"Someone is offering a 1000 yuan reward for the WeChat ID of the woman in the white dress!"
"A thousand yuan?" Lin Le pushed up his glasses and sneered. "In Shanghai, a thousand yuan can't even buy a decent pair of shoes. This guy is insulting our goddess."
Gu Dapeng, munching on the half-eaten steamed bun from dinner, mumbled:
"Exactly! I think it should be at least five thousand!"
"But speaking of which, it's been a whole day, how come no one has figured out who that beautiful woman is yet?"
"I've memorized the entire roster of Class 6 in our Performing Arts Department, but I've never heard of this person."
Su Ze looked worried, as if he had lost five million.
Listening to their enthusiastic discussion, Jiang Bai sat to the side, quietly drinking water.
His feelings are very complicated right now.
On the one hand, he was overjoyed to see his popularity soaring.
On the other hand, seeing her roommates ogling her photos made her feel incredibly disgusted.
This feeling of being the only one sober while everyone else is drunk is just too agonizing!
"Cough cough."
Jiang Bai put down his water glass and stood up.
"Um, I'm going out to buy a bottle of water."
"I also wanted to get some fresh air; it's too stuffy in here."
Su Ze waved his hand without looking up:
"Go ahead, and remember to bring me an ice-cold Coke."
"I want a bottle too!" Gu Dapeng shouted.
……
I walked out of the dormitory building.
Jiang Bai took a deep breath.
The campus at night is much quieter than during the day.
The streetlights cast a dim yellow glow, and the shadows of the trees swayed gently.
Occasionally, a few couples would cuddle in a corner, exuding the sweet and sour smell of romance.
Jiang Bai avoided crowds and chose to walk along dark, secluded paths.
His current goal is very clear.
Find a secluded spot and practice singing!
Although the system had already stuffed all the techniques of the song "Love You" into his brain.
Even that sweet but not cloying singing style has become muscle memory.
But theory is theory, and practice is practice.
Just like watching countless action movies doesn't mean you can actually become a real combat expert.
not to mention.
This time, we'll be singing and dancing at the same time!
If you don't get used to it beforehand, and you happen to have trouble breathing or stiff movements on stage, then that million will be gone!
Jiang Bai made several turns and finally arrived at the most secluded grove of trees behind the school.
This is a corner of the old campus, and nobody comes here usually.
Only a few stray cats darted about in the bushes.
"This is it."
Jiang Bai looked around to make sure no one was around, then cleared his throat.
"Switch mode".
A thought crossed my mind.
The [Gender Indistinguishable] skill activates instantly.
That cool sensation in my throat returned.
Jiang Bai tried to pronounce a sound.
"Ah~"
A clear and melodious female voice echoed through the night.
sweet.
It is too sweet!!!
It's like taking a bite of a juicy peach, bursting with flavor.
Jiang Bai nodded in satisfaction.
That's the true value of a system!
He closed his eyes, and the melody and lyrics of "Love You" came to mind.
Emotions are building up.
Start with style.
"Honey, say a few more sweet words, and if you miss me, look at me one more time~"
"Perform just a little more, so I can really see it~"
"Oh Bye, say less, I want to spend more than just one day with you~"
"Just a little more, so I can love you willingly~"
There was no accompaniment.
Pure a cappella singing.
But if someone heard those few lines of a cappella singing, they would definitely kneel down and call for their mother on the spot.
With the system's support, Jiang Bai's voice perfectly replicated the overly sweet quality of the "Sweetheart Queen."
even.
Because of the existence of the passive talent [Heavenly Voice].
His voice is clearer and more penetrating than the original.
Every note transition and every breath was handled with unparalleled smoothness!
It was a sweetness that struck right to the soul!
Not cloying, not pretentious.
It's a feeling that makes you irresistibly want to fall in love!
After Jiang Bai finished singing, he couldn't help but applaud himself.
"Awesome!"
"This isn't Jiang Bai, this is Wang Xinling herself!"
"No, even stronger than Ben Ling!"
"If this were on stage, wouldn't it steal the hearts of all those otaku?"
My confidence soared instantly.
Now that your singing skills are fine, let's move on to the main event.
dance!
The reason why the song "Love You" became a hit song is not only due to its catchy melody, but also because of its iconic dance moves!
That youthful, energetic bouncing, that slightly shy swaying...
That's the ultimate technique!
