Chapter 327

"After all, it is difficult to climb the hall of elegance. Letting this kind of song advance is a stain on this competition!" Director Wang was the first to stand up and oppose *Social Person* advancing. His prejudice against rap had never changed from beginning to end.

Another teacher was speaking for Fan Ying: "But this is also the first rap song after all. Letting it advance can better reflect the inclusiveness of the Shangyi Music Competition. Moreover, the quality of this song is not that bad. It is definitely qualified to advance to the next round."

"That's what I said, but I have a clear opposition attitude. However, it doesn't count if I say it alone. You can make the decision." Seeing that President Zheng had not spoken, Director Wang stopped saying anything. No matter how much he pulled, it was still a matter of the old man's words. There was no need to waste his tongue, just show his attitude.

Dean Zheng thought for a while and said with a smile: "Give a chance. If you put aside the type, the content of this song is quite good.

Moreover, isn't rap quite popular now? Let's also rub some heat, so as not to let netizens say that we are a group of rigid old antiques."

Director Wang pursed his lips, and finally didn't speak.

Dean Zheng saw that no one opposed, nodded, and looked up at the stage: "After our teachers' joint discussion, we feel that Fan Ying's song has its own merits and meets the promotion standard!"

Although Fan Ying on the stage had an arrogant look of not hanging anyone before, he must be very eager to advance in his heart. After all, this is a great opportunity to prove his strength and also to rectify the name of rap. But after singing, the teachers didn't announce the result immediately like before, indicating that there must be different opinions internally.

He probably guessed who had different opinions. Director Wang despising rap, shouting, learning dog barking, and a group of vulgar songs is not a secret in the school.

Fortunately, his rap is not the same thing compared to those industry scum. Although the process was a bit bumpy, the result was good.

"Thank you, teachers." Hearing that he successfully advanced, the big stone in Fan Ying's heart was also put down, and his expression was much more relaxed: "Actually, I know that many people have prejudice against rap. There are indeed many mice in this industry, but there are still many people who have been working hard to do the purest and best rap. I came to the stage this time, also to speak for these real rappers who are misunderstood by the public. I hope everyone who listens to my song can keep a respect for people like us."

After speaking, he bowed to thank him. The students under the stage were quite moved when they heard such heartfelt words, and they applauded one after another.

After the applause, President Zheng said to Fan Ying: "Have ideas, and the three views are correct, but you must keep it up."

"I will." Fan Ying responded firmly.

………………

"It's almost time, right?" Ai Wei asked.

"The next one is me." Luo Quan was ready to get up and go on stage.

"Come on!" Ai Wei also clenched her fists to cheer her up, just like Luo Quan did to her just now.

"Below, please invite the No. 112 contestant, Luo Quan, a first-year student from the Vocal Pop Department. The competition work she brought is the symphony *Nightingale*! (ps. the author is Yanni)"

Hearing Luo Quan's name, the whole auditorium immediately became as noisy as a vegetable market.

"Luo Quan actually came too? I haven't heard of it before."

"It seems that she only revealed on her dynamic yesterday that she wanted to participate in the school's music competition, but not many people knew."

"Isn't this a dimensionality reduction strike? There is no suspense for the champion of this session."

"Not necessarily, you have to listen to the work to know."

"Just because of this name, even if she wrote shouting, I will vote for her!"

"Fan Ying is too miserable, directly to be compared with Luo Quan, isn't this directly killed?"

"Luck is too bad, how can it be next to Luo Quan."

……………………

In Shangyi, the name Luo Quan can be said to be known to everyone. Whether teachers or students know that such a great god has come to the school.

During the period when school just started, I don't know how many students deliberately guarded the road between Luo Quan's dormitory and the cafeteria, just to meet her by chance. Those who were lucky could even look at her and see her smile that made people feel like a spring breeze.

Although it sounds very otaku, it also shows how high Luo Quan's popularity is among the male students in Shangyi.

However, after the incident of Bai Xi, the school leaders also specifically issued an order, asking the counselors of each class to warn students not to always surround others like a fly. Anyway, they are also studying art, so have some restraint and gentlemanly demeanor.

After this measure was issued, Luo Quan's life was much better, and the fans she could meet by chance on the road dropped sharply.

In the past, when she went out of the dormitory to eat, she had to greet dozens of people along the way, and her face was almost stiff from fake smiling.

However, seeing her less often also kept a considerable amount of mystery for Luo Quan in the minds of classmates. From the beginning of school to now, there are still a considerable number of students who only see her on the internet, and have never seen her in person.

Such a big star is actually their classmate, it sounds like it's not very real.

Luo Quan ran to the stage, leaving a fragrance behind her. The boys sitting on the side of the road took a deep breath one after another, greedily wanting to smell the breath belonging to Luo Quan.

"Hello, teacher." Luo Quan took the microphone, obedient and polite.

Seeing Luo Quan, the attitude of the teachers under the stage was completely 180 degrees different from facing Fan Ying just now, all smiling, and the wrinkles on their faces were layer upon layer.

"Symphony *Nightingale*, right?" Only President Zheng's expression was no different from before. His expression to all students was the same: "First talk about the music type, song structure and other elements, and then talk about the creative inspiration."

These things had already been firmly imprinted in her mind after Luo Quan exchanged for the song, and she had also done her homework before coming. It seems that this form of song has not appeared in this world.

Luo Quan's voice was clear and pleasant: "After I created this song, I found that it combined the characteristics of many songs, but there is no specific music genre that can be used to divide it, so I temporarily call it 'New Age Music.' In it, I integrated electronic music, reformist music, neoclassicism, and appeal.

Simply put, it is a combination of classical music and modern electronic music, and it is also very national."

President Zheng also heard about this New Age Music for the first time, but such a fusion sounds quite interesting. However, he was more curious about this appeal: "Can you talk about what this appeal is about?"

Luo Quan smiled shyly: "My face."

"Hmm?"

"Hmm?"

Two "hmm"s, one was made by the judges, and one was made by the students.

Obviously, everyone didn't quite understand Luo Quan's explanation. How did her face relate to appeal?

Luo Quan continued to explain: "I have always believed that music is not only a kind of hearing, but also a kind of vision.

The author can outline a picture that is either magnificent or beautiful for the audience through notes, making people feel immersive.

And the performer can also bring emotional resonance to the audience through their body language when playing, as well as intoxicated expressions. This is a dual guidance of hearing and vision, which is more infectious than a single auditory experience.

And with my shallow cognition, performers who are generally good-looking want to achieve this effect, it should be easier. As for me, it should be easier."

The teachers were still thinking, and the students, especially the boys, spoke directly:

"Seems to be such a truth? Watching a beautiful woman perform on site is more comfortable than listening to a record."

"Not to mention it's performed by Luo Quan? Even if she stands in front of me without moving, I'm enjoying it."

"If she stands in front of me, how can I have the heart to listen to the song."

"Sounds like the path of visual rock."

"Beauty system, Luo Quan's face is much more pleasing to the eye than those kill-ma-te?"

……………………

President Zheng asked: "It is indeed a novel music genre, but no matter what, the subject is still on music, right?"

Luo Quan nodded: "Of course, no matter what music, it needs to be expressed with melody."

President Zheng continued: "Then are you using a piano or other electronic instruments for this song?"

Luo Quan nodded: "Because I wrote it in Chinese style, the main body is a flute, but now I want to play it with a piano, and then blow the flute when I officially perform on stage. At that time, there will be a symphony orchestra to perform together."

President Zheng smiled: "Very confident, haven't passed the preliminary round yet, and thinking about the finals."

Although this sounds as if it is arrogant, it sounds so natural from Luo Quan's mouth, as if it should be like this.

But think about it, her works have never disappointed people so far. Don't talk about the finals, even if she says she can win the championship this time, it is estimated that no one dares to jump out and question it.

Enough has been said. No matter what new music, new and old fusion, or using beauty to appeal to the audience, in the end, you still have to use works to speak.

Luo Quan sat on the piano and put her hands on it.

Before her, this piano had been used many times. Every time it was used, a senior from the student department would wipe it clean with a cloth, mainly because they were afraid that the students who used it later would have mysophobia.

Luo Quan didn't have any mysophobia, nor did she need to brew like other students before playing, directly starting.

Luo Quan's fingers flew on the keys, her movements were clean and neat, unlike many students who play the piano, waving their arms like dancers every time they play.

Her facial expression was also slightly smiling, without pretending to be intoxicated and closing her eyes.

Now it is the preliminary round, she is ready to keep this trick until the finals. In terms of the quality of this song, there is no need to be so fancy.

But just playing like this, it is still a beautiful scenery in the eyes of others.

Luo Quan was wearing a blue and white plaid shirt today, with two cuffs rolled up for a circle and a half, just right to reveal her fair wrists, her fingers were slender, her nails were bright but didn't apply anything, everything was so fresh and natural.

The music played by such a pair of wonderful hands is so ethereal and pleasant. The melody is the kind of ethereal and agile type, and the piano complements it very well. Under Luo Quan's interpretation, it is simply the ultimate enjoyment.

The judges finally knew what Luo Quan said about appeal. A song played by such a beautiful girl, even if the most picky music critic comes, can't pick out any faults!

This is indeed a dual enjoyment of vision and hearing. Whether it is the song or the performer, it is as beautiful as a dream.

The performance only lasted for more than two minutes. Luo Quan didn't finish playing this piece. Mainly because this piece has many parts, besides piano, flute, cello, and even human voice, wanting a complete experience, she alone cannot complete it.

Now just need to give an audiovisual version. Want to hear the complete one? Vote her into the finals first.

Other contestants on the preliminary stage are eager to show all the highlights of their works, for fear of being missed. Only Luo Quan dares to be so willful, playing hunger marketing for the audience and judges.

However, she also has such qualifications. When she stopped and stood up, everyone's expression was unfinished. This wonderful performance was only a short two minutes, and they didn't have enough!

As a professional, Director Wang quickly made an evaluation: "Only piano, so I can't make any judgment on the new and old fusion you said for the time being. However, purely in terms of the song, compared with the championship works of previous sessions, it is also better than the past.

However, the name of the song is *Nightingale*. I haven't heard the connection with the nightingale yet. Can you talk about it?"

"Just said it." Luo Quan smiled: "The focus of this piece is on the flute performance, that is the soul."

Director Wang suddenly realized: "You mean using a flute to imitate the nightingale's call? This idea is quite good."

Looking at the smiles on the faces of the judges, it is obvious that they are quite satisfied with the quality of this piece made by Luo Quan.

Just like Director Wang's evaluation, this piece, excluding the fancy elements Luo Quan said, just discussing the quality, is better than the championship works of previous sessions.

Is there any difference between this and announcing in advance that Luo Quan is the champion?

No.

However, the process still has to be walked, and it does not exclude the possibility of Shangyi producing another peerless genius. Of course, the possibility of this situation is so small that it can be ignored.

Luo Quan returned to her position amidst applause. Many students kept staring at her, with admiration, envy, longing, worship, and jealousy in their eyes.

Luo Quan accepted all these emotions peacefully, and had long been accustomed to it.

Ai Wei worshipped: "Amazing, boss, what a beauty-based New Age music. From now on, you are also the ancestor who founded the sect!"

Luo Quan smiled: "Is it easy to found a sect? When I have time, I will put on makeup for you, so that you can also have such achievements!"
