Chapter 183: If you slow down 'Happy Joy' ten times, does it become a funeral march?
In a piano room at the Imperial Music Academy, Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling sat upright behind the piano, practicing.
Her ten fingers danced, 'Flight of the Bumblebee'.
Just then, the piano room door was suddenly pushed open.
Xiaoying pushed the door open, panting, and burst in.
Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling's fingers paused, and she stopped slowly.
"Xiaoying, what's wrong?"
Xiaoying took a few deep breaths, looking at Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling with a strange expression.
"Sister Bai Bai Xiaoling, you... you~ sang off-key!"
What the hell?
Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling looked at the piano suspiciously and recalled carefully.
"My piano playing might not be great, but it's not off-key, is it?"
Xiaoying shook her head desperately.
"No, no, you didn't play the piano off-key just now!"
"It's your song... you sang it off-key!"
?????
A pile of question marks appeared on Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling's face.
Off-key? How is that possible?
Seeing her bewildered expression, Xiaoying took out her phone and tapped it a few times.
"Look quickly, this is the new song the Cult Leader just released!"
Su Meng released a new song?
Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling was delighted and quickly took the phone.
She saw Su Meng standing in the recording studio on the screen.
The music started, and Su Meng instantly switched states, his whole face dancing with joy.
..."
Listening to such addictive music, Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling's mouth opened wider and wider, and she was completely stunned.
A moment later, the music finally stopped, and the piano room was silent.
Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling was still somewhat dazed, muttering to herself.
"The song... how is it supposed to be sung?"
Seeing her expression, Xiaoying was also somewhat smug.
"How about it? You sang it off-key, right?"
Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling managed to shake herself out of it, looked at the screen carefully, and nodded in admiration.
"Countertenor, plus Flower-Drum Opera, Teacher Su is truly amazing!"
"No way?" Xiaoying was completely dumbfounded.
"You're still being stubborn?"
"Looks like I have to let you hear the new song from Phoenix Legend!"
Phoenix Legend? New song?
Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling was even more confused.
Isn't this Phoenix Legend just her and Su Meng's duo?
When did they release a new song? Even I don't know about it?
Xiaoying grabbed the phone, operated it, and handed it back, looking sympathetic.
"Sister Bai Bai Xiaoling, comparison causes harm..."
Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling picked up the phone to look, and saw on the screen, clearly written...
(Meat-aged silver floor mat)
What the hell?
Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling was already stunned.
Just looking at the screen, it was clearly the MV for the song.
But... the next moment, the camera switched, cutting directly to Su Meng's face.
"(Flower-Drum Opera)..."
Then it cut back to the original MV, with Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling singing affectionately.
"(Original Version)..."
"(Flower-Drum Opera)"
"(Original Version)..."
The screen switched incredibly smoothly, the two singing one line each, surprisingly harmonious.
Especially the chorus in the later parts, it was seamless!
A long time later, the phone slowly slid to the floor.
Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling looked dazed, muttering to herself.
"Is this song... really a sad love song?"
"Is this song... really a sad love song?"
Su Meng stared at Wanzi and said lightly.
At this moment, Wanzi was completely stunned.
Seeing her expression, Su Meng felt secretly pleased.
The Flower-Drum Opera version he brought out was a cover by Liao Jialin from his previous life.
Using the Ningxiang accent combined with the Flower-Drum Opera singing style, it produced a miraculous effect.
And the Phoenix Legend version he mentioned was actually a parody by netizens from his previous life.
It was just a mashup of the Flower-Drum Opera version and the original, also extremely addictive.
Since Su Meng had made up his mind to completely destroy Wanzi's belief in this song, he simply brought out both versions.
Wanzi shook her head desperately, trying to shake this addictive tune out of her head.
But how could that be possible?
Su Meng smiled slightly and said lightly.
"To put it plainly, this is just a pop song."
"Music, to me, hehe, is just for fun!"
"So you insisting on linking me and this song to my emotional experience, isn't that ridiculous?"
Wanzi was still confused, muttering.
"But you wrote this song so affectionately..."
Damn it! Still can't turn the corner?
Su Meng was instantly angry; you're forcing me to use my ultimate move!
"Zhang Zhang Xiaoyan!"
"Ah? ...Ah, Brother Su, I'm here."
The young assistant was startled and ran over quickly.
"Go! Bring me my suona!"
Damn it! Everyone at Xinghai Entertainment turned green.
They would never forget the fear of the office being dominated by 'The Great Funeral'...
On the internet at this moment, it had already exploded.
The netizens who were cheering just a moment ago had already started doubting life.
"Damn, the first line is addictive, isn't it?"
"Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling clearly sang off-key; Su Meng still slays."
"It's like taking a sip of '82 Lafite, then having a peanut; it's a perfect match!"
"Did you guys see the chorus version? It feels like they're scolding each other, haha..."
"I feel like my personality is about to split."
"I'm going to start drinking fake alcohol, don't stop me..."
"Forbidden duet, I've completely forgotten the original..."
"Strongly suggest they sing a live version; I want to see if Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling will actually be led astray!"
"Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling couldn't out-scold Su Meng, got led off-key, and was so angry she smashed a bowl!"
"The Su Meng brainless fan thing... has it lost its heat just like that?"
Hua Hua Chenyu looked at the screen, feeling terrible.
The agent was also very serious.
"With these two songs out, the whole internet is discussing them; who cares about the brainless fan thing anymore?"
"Although we arranged for internet trolls, but... the trolls are also poisoned, damn it!"
"I don't care!" Hua Hua Chenyu suddenly became angry.
"This matter must be hyped up! Must get rid of Su Meng!"
The agent took out his phone and opened the KuNi Music platform.
He sighed and shoved the phone over.
"Forget about the brainless fan thing for now, look at the new song download chart first... accept my condolences..."
Hua Hua Chenyu suddenly had a feeling that something bad was going to happen, and took the phone tremblingly.
Just one glance, and he froze.
1st place, '...', Singer: Phoenix Legend Version
2nd place, '...', Singer: Su Meng Version
3rd place, '...', Singer: Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling Version
4th place, '...', Singer: Hua Hua Chenyu
5th place...
Hua Hua Chenyu's brain went blank.
I! Hua Hua Chenyu! The creative genius of the Chinese music scene!
Can't even squeeze into the top three?
And... I was beaten three times by one song, damn it?!
"The cooperation with everyone was very pleasant..."
Sister Qin pushed open the conference room door, and just as she finished half her sentence, she noticed the atmosphere in the entire company was a bit off.
Everyone was acting as if facing a great enemy.
The young girl from the administrative department was dragging a large box of toilet paper, saying loudly.
"Come, come, everyone line up here to get your toilet paper!"
Someone said with a mournful face.
"Can't I just cover my eyes and block my ears?"
The young girl put her hands on her hips and said aggressively.
"Brother Su is about to perform in person, and you guys dare not show support?"
That person was almost crying.
"Big sister, I'm still young; I really don't want to be hollowed out at such a young age."
"Less nonsense! You know how to use toilet paper, right?" The young girl didn't take no for an answer and shoved a pack of toilet paper into his hand.
Seeing this scene, Sister Qin was almost numb.
This style... why does it feel a bit off?
The few people beside her had their expressions change drastically.
"Damn! Need this much toilet paper?"
"Your company actually wants to develop this kind of film business? And Su Meng is starring in it himself?"
"Our platform is a serious platform; we will never broadcast this kind of film!"
"How about we make a deal, send it to me privately after it's filmed?"
"I have a QQ group, often sharing these, group number 242..."
His words stopped abruptly, as if he had discovered some great secret.
The few people nearby who were pricking up their ears wanted to jump up and beat him.
Why did you only say half of what you were saying?
Tell us the group number!
"Xiao Qi! What is going on?!"
"I'm just here to talk business, why has the company's business direction changed?!"
The young girl from the administrative department's eyes lit up, and she dragged the box over.
Without a word, she shoved toilet paper into Sister Qin's hand.
"Sister Qin, hurry up and get the toilet paper ready; Brother Su's performance is about to start!"
"What?" Sister Qin was startled.
"He's performing this in public?"
The young girl shook her head.
"You know, Brother Su's voice is a bit loud, the company's soundproofing..."
Damn! The way the group of people looked at Sister Qin changed.
How do you know his voice is a bit loud?
And listening to this... has there been a precedent in the company?
Do the little fresh meats nowadays not avoid people when doing this kind of thing?
Sister Qin felt terrible.
My reputation, is it not going to be preserved just like this?
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could I know if his voice is loud or not?"
The young assistant looked confused.
"Sister Qin, of course you know."
"Last time when Brother Su performed in the company, you cried the loudest."
What the hell? The people from the platforms looked at Sister Qin with strange eyes.
You were involved in this too? You cried?
Sister Qin looked indignant and raised her hand to hit her.
The young girl looked anxious.
"Sister Qin, hurry up and get ready!"
"Zhang Zhang Xiaoyan is about to bring Brother Su's suona over!"
What? Suona? The group of people froze instantly.
Did you just... say... suona?
It's not what we thought... ah pfft, we just thought of suona!
Sister Qin's raised hand froze, then she brought it down, snatched the toilet paper, and shoved it into the hand of someone nearby.
"Manager Wang, continue with the group number you mentioned earlier?"
That person was also dazed and said subconsciously.
"504... that... we're just exchanging suona techniques..."
"Understood, understood!"
The group nodded in unison, then asked with holy expressions.
"Then what are the remaining three digits?"
Su Meng came over with the Xie father and daughter and Duan Duan Jiangping, and seeing the group acting as if facing a great enemy, he was also curious.
"What are you guys doing?"
The young girl leaned over and asked weakly.
"Brother Su, what piece are you preparing to play? 'The Great Funeral' or 'The Peaceful Road to the West'?"
Su Meng shook his head, looking confused.
"Why would I play funeral music for no reason? I'm preparing to play 'Happy Joy'."
Hap... Happy Joy? Everyone was stunned.
I thought you were going to perform a funeral, I was all prepared to have a good cry.
And you tell me you're preparing for a wedding?
