"God, I love China so much. The food here is simply too delicious. Compared with Chinese chefs, those five-star hotel chefs in my family only deserve to be thrown to the countryside to feed pigs!!" Seifert was full of various meat foods. Even with so many delicacies, he couldn't stop his mouth.

"In front of girls, can't you pay attention to your image?" Gao Liang held chopsticks, his sword eyebrows slightly frowned.

In order to follow the customs of the country, he had been learning to use Chinese chopsticks since yesterday.

He, who was used to knives and forks, suddenly changed to a kind of tableware, feeling quite "drawing a sword and looking around in a daze," not knowing how to use it.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. Fortunately, Gao Liang's brain turned relatively fast. He ate those big and soft dishes, directly using chopsticks as forks, which could be considered as getting started.

Seifert complained: "You must be unpopular in school. You are too stiff. You didn't learn anything good, but you learned the poor manners of your father's European fallen aristocrats."

"First of all, I don't know how many girls sent me love letters in school. The girls who wanted to change seats to sit beside me could form a women's football league!" Gao Liang put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a white napkin, and said leisurely: "Secondly, my father is not a fallen aristocrat. He is the first heir of Albert Real Estate Company, and the castles under his name are more than any aristocrat in the UK."

Seifert "angrily" said: "You only know how to pull these things that you didn't earn by yourself all day. Do you think it's interesting?

Think about your life, besides being able to inherit your father's hundreds of properties, dozens of luxury cars, several castles, three yachts, and two planes, what else do you have? What are you?"

Gao Liang was shocked: "Damn! How do you remember my family property better than me?

But you missed one point. My father also has three farms in the United States, which will be mine in the future."

"What about your sister?" Seifert asked.

Gao Liang said lightly: "My father asked my sister, and she said she had no interest in these external things. Money is enough."

"Look at this awareness!" Seifert looked at Gao Liang with disdain.

"What are you talking about?" Luo Quan and Wen Xia walked over with their trays.

The trays of the two girls had more vegetable salad. Wen Xia basically didn't eat meat, but Luo Quan put two fried chicken legs.

Seifert laughed and said: "Talking about Gao Liang's three farms in the United States."

Luo Quan smiled: "You are still thinking about that? Such a large farm, you may not see a person for ten kilometers. If it weren't for the grass everywhere, it would be no different from a no-man's land."

Gao Liang took a sip of juice: "At least there are many cows."

Seifert disdained: "How much are cows worth? Milk in the United States has long been overproduced. Many milk squeezed out is poured directly. The milk poured out of a farm is enough for me to take a milk bath for ten years." Speaking of this, Seifert looked at Gao Liang and said fiercely: "And you, as a future farm owner, are watching the occurrence of such evil deeds. Do you say you are rich and unkind?"

Gao Liang didn't make a sound, just raised his middle finger to Seifert, a world-wide mocking gesture.

"Why talk about these, I have serious business to ask you." Luo Quan persuaded, and then said to Seifert: "Is the promotion plan for my album out?"

Seifert took out his phone and said: "My subordinate just sent me a text message. It's ready. It can be released tonight. As usual, you should hold a press conference and go to the scene to promote it.

In addition, you'd better record songs faster. The headquarters is already impatient to print albums for you. I heard that the first batch is three million copies!"

Luo Quan was surprised: "Made such a big decision after listening to one song?"

Seifert laughed: "No need to listen to the song. Now in the United States, your name is a signboard. Who in the music circle doesn't know your talent?

This English album is your first personal English album. It will definitely sell well, just don't know how much it can sell."

Luo Quan nodded happily when she heard this: "Okay, I'll work overtime these few days and try to finish writing the songs within half a month."

Gao Liang interrupted: "I have to wait two days there. The rap of the song you gave me has some difficulty and needs to be practiced for a few more days."

Luo Quan agreed: "No problem, it's fine to record it last. You don't have to be too anxious."

After lunch, the mentors returned to their rooms.

For Luo Quan, since Universal headquarters was urging, she certainly couldn't be as lazy as before, so she decided to finish the song production as soon as possible.

The original plan was to release ten songs within a month, one every three days.

Now she could only change the plan and shorten it to ten songs in half a month, that is, two songs every three days.

The show was finished today, and there was nothing to do in the afternoon. Luo Quan didn't plan to rest and decided to start work after a nap.

Before sleeping, she looked at Weibo as usual, preparing to pay attention to the public's evaluation of her new songs, and unexpectedly found that she was on the hot search.

The hot search for the new album was gone this morning. The new hot search was the video of her art exam at Shangyi, with the title: "Luo Quan's first art exam full marks!"

This was indeed a very interesting piece of news. Although Shangyi had a rule that art exam videos could not be spread, in fact, many high-definition videos would flow out every time after the exam, and the school basically wouldn't pursue anything.

The one who released the video this time was an entertainment news official Weibo with only over 100,000 followers. It was estimated that they bought the video from students who participated in the art exam at that time.

After all, when Luo Quan sang, there were many students recording videos.

This video recorded the part of Luo Quan's singing during the art exam very completely. The mobile phone camera was also very good, the picture quality was clear, and the only disadvantage was that the sound collection effect was not good, the video noise was loud, and from time to time, one could hear the sighs of people around.

Of course, this couldn't cover up Luo Quan's excellence. Even people who didn't know much about coloratura soprano would be incomparably surprised after seeing this video, surprised that Luo Quan could sing so flowery and her voice could be so high.

Many people who knew the goods in the comments had occupied the front row, popularizing it for those behind:

"I dare to bet that no student in domestic universities can have Luo Quan's level!"

"Simply outrageous. If Luo Quan were older, she could sit directly in the examiner's position."

"This part of the singing difficulty is extremely high. It is known as the touchstone of coloratura soprano and is one of the must-sing repertoires for world-class coloratura soprano singers!"

"So Luo Quan's level is world-class?"

"That's not necessarily true. After all, she sings pop, not coloratura. The singing methods of the two are very different, and the technology has not been honed to the extreme."

"I think Luo Quan is even more amazing after saying this. A pop singer can sing to this level, which is unique."

Luo Quan discovered a very magical thing, that is, the comment section of this hot search was unexpectedly pleasing to the eye. After flipping through so many comments, they were all praising her, which was very harmonious.

Before, when she was on the hot search, no matter what happened, there would always be people posting some bad remarks in the comment section.

Some scolded her, some were yin and yang.

But this time, I basically didn't see it.

It seems that in this kind of video where you can see how strong her technology is at a glance, keyboard warriors have no way to talk nonsense with their eyes open.

Before, so many people in China praised her talent, but in fact, talent is relatively subjective. Some people don't like it and think it's not good to listen to, so they think you have no talent.

But her singing in this video is objectively strong, the kind that men, women, old and young will praise as powerful after watching it.

And many people's evaluation of a singer's strength on Weibo basically depends on high notes and turns. If they meet these two items, many people will blow you brainlessly, wishing they could blow you into the top domestic singing skills.

And the singing segment of "Queen of the Night" perfectly embodied these two characteristics, and Luo Quan logically promoted to a "powerful singer."

Similar titles include acting school, high emotional intelligence, professional, pet fans, and a series of keywords, and usually celebrities with these keywords have a very good reputation on Weibo.

Luo Quan never expected that her reputation would reverse because of a video. Writing so many good songs before didn't have any effect. This time, she hit a high note and was praised by the whole network. The number of fans also increased from 1.2 million to nearly 2 million, and the sales of the album also increased!

Luo Quan sighed: "No wonder singers in those singing shows like to hit high notes. It seems that it is really fan-absorbing."

High notes are actually just an indicator of a singer's singing skills, and it is the most basic indicator, which is not difficult.

But for ordinary people, they don't have so much music theory knowledge, and they don't know how to evaluate the quality of a singer's singing skills. The most intuitive way is to rely on whether she can hit high notes.

The higher the hit, the stronger the strength, and passersby will easily fan her.

Luo Quan now tastes some sweetness, and at the same time immediately decides to change her plan to release new songs.

Originally, she was prepared to record a gentle song for the second song, but this obviously couldn't reflect her "singing skills." Just like "Someone Like You," although the technical difficulty was very high, there were no high notes, so in the ears of the "ear emperors," it was just an ordinary English song.

Since that's the case, Luo Quan's second song must be how to show off her skills.

After the nap, Luo Quan, who had enough energy, went to the Xiaoshan Film and Television Building again.

Not many people were recording songs today, and the rooms were basically empty.

Luo Quan walked around outside and saw Cao Cao Mufeng.

Like yesterday, he was still lying on the chair, grinding foreign work.

Cao Cao Mufeng's chair turned, and he saw Luo Quan outside.

He got up and opened the door, curious: "Recording studio gone again?"

Luo Quan shook her head and smiled: "That's not it, I just came to see if you were recording a song. I didn't expect you to be really recording."

Cao Cao Mufeng smiled bitterly: "Already recorded early. The company saw that I was so efficient and urged me to write another one. I'm looking for inspiration. If I had known, I wouldn't have been so sharp.

What about you? Are you here to record a new song for 'Love'?"

Luo Quan nodded helplessly: "Yes, the company I signed with urged me to hurry up, so I had to come.

By the way, thank you for speaking for me yesterday."

"It's a small matter, I just can't stand a group of people who don't know how to spend money and are still scolding you for being too expensive.

By the way, do you need help? I happen to have time now, and I can learn some technology from you by the way."

"Okay." Luo Quan didn't refuse.

To be honest, Cao Cao Mufeng really wanted to learn something from Luo Quan.

Talent is talent, which cannot be learned, but things like arrangement skills and singing skills can be learned.

Cao Cao Mufeng felt that he was the kind of person who could understand everything. Even watching Luo Quan's operation could learn something.

In the industry, Luo Quan's arrangement level is well-known, the completion of each song is quite high, and the techniques are also very mature.

After watching for an afternoon yesterday, Cao Cao Mufeng couldn't see why, just kept sighing. Today he decided to observe carefully again.

So he stood behind Luo Quan, watching her click on the computer, the speed was so fast that he couldn't keep up at all.

Until the accompaniment was produced, Cao Cao Mufeng also seemed to be in the clouds, with question marks all over his head.

"You are too fast." Cao Cao Mufeng laughed, seeing that Luo Quan had clicked save, and there was a sentence in his heart that he didn't know whether to say or not.

"It's like this when you're skilled. It used to take more than an hour to make an accompaniment, but now the progress is quite big." Luo Quan said, stood up, and opened the door of the recording booth: "Help me press it."

"Okay." Cao Cao Mufeng nodded and sat down.

He finally figured it out. Some things are not what you want to learn, and you can learn them. Just like talent, this is a patent exclusive to one person. Others can't learn it no matter how they learn.

Others just need to offer their exclamations and applause, and everything else is wishful thinking.

Walking into the recording booth, Luo Quan didn't sit on the stool this time.

In the past, the songs were generally not particularly difficult, and her foundation was enough for her to squander, so sitting and singing was nothing.

But this song today is very, very difficult. Even with her talent and singing skills, wanting to perform it perfectly is definitely a very big challenge.

When she came, she had actually prepared to record a few times.

Pulling the microphone high, Luo Quan took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and began to brew emotions.

This song not only requires extreme singing skills but also requires strong emotional substitution. Both are indispensable.

Cao Cao Mufeng saw Luo Quan's expression so solemn, and his heart also became nervous. How difficult is the song that can make Luo Quan treat it so seriously?

"You can start." Luo Quan gave a thumbs up to the outside and said.

Cao Cao Mufeng nodded, pressed the recording and accompaniment buttons at the same time, and the two people with headphones entered the state at the same time.

The beginning of the accompaniment music was very soothing, and it seemed to be the same type as yesterday's "Someone Like You."

"It doesn't sound difficult." Cao Cao Mufeng heard Luo Quan open her mouth and felt it was relatively plain.

But just a few dozen seconds later, he was completely shocked. ===== CHAPTER 196 =====
