Chapter 458: This Is Definitely a Divine Song

Meng Yangguang looked at these three lines of text, and his whole person could be described in four words—struck by lightning!

"Earth? The composer is Earth?" Meng Yangguang couldn't help but exclaim.

How could he not know that Earth was Luo Mo?

Yes, Earth was Luo Mo's alias; indeed, many people knew, but it couldn't be said that everyone knew.

After all, no matter how big a matter becomes, there are always some people who are out of the loop, or some who just don't care; this is normal.

But Meng Yangguang and Luo Mo had old grudges.

However, if a person is only a head taller than you, you might still feel envy, jealousy, and hatred, but if they are much, much taller than you, so tall that you can only look up, and you are no longer on the same level, then those emotions in your heart become much more complex.

He couldn't stop himself from paying attention to any news about Luo Mo.

This made him feel like he was originally a hater, someone who couldn't stand this person, yet had to keep following them.

And now, because he paid too much attention to Luo Mo's career, he felt exactly like a Career Fan.

Sometimes, a voice would even emerge from the bottom of his heart: "I really hope he gets more and more popular."

It's just like losing to a fledgling martial arts hero; you feel it's very shameful.

But one day, when they become the best in the world, it becomes capital for you to brag: "I once crossed swords with him!"

Think carefully, up until now, who else has made Luo Mo bring out an original piece during a musical duel?

No one!

——On! Ly! Me!

Alright, Meng Yangguang had truly become a hidden Career Fan of Luo Mo.

At this moment, he hurriedly took out his headphones, preparing to put them on and properly listen to this "D Da Diao Ka Nong".

Ding Xiaoyu's piano standard, in their circle of people who study Yueqi, could be said to be known to everyone.

In the piano world, this genius girl is an existence like a god.

It can be said that many girls who study piano view her as an Idol.

If one could possess even a fraction of her skill, they would be set for life, and could get a string of paychecks just by giving people a few lessons.

With music composed by Luo Mo and played by Ding Xiaoyu, what kind of piece would it actually be?

Meng Yangguang pushed his chair back, slumped his whole body onto the tilted backrest, and began to close his eyes and listen intently.

It was strange; this piece seemed to have magical power, and when the first few notes came out, he felt his heart calm down a little.

By about one minute in, Meng Yangguang had already fallen in love with this piece.

To be precise, the piano version of "D Da Diao Ka Nong", this section around the 1-minute mark, is also one of the classic segments most familiar to many people.

A piece with a long history and global acclaim is sometimes just like this. You might not know its name, but when that familiar melody appears, you can even hum along; the rise and fall of every note seems to be carved into your heart.

Without realizing it, Meng Yangguang had finished listening to the entire piece.

After listening, he took off his headphones and took a deep breath.

He had studied Yueqi for ten years and considered himself proficient in music theory.

But there are some things where the more you understand, the more you realize how terrifying they are.

A high mountain—if you don't approach it, you naturally don't know how high it is. But when you arrive at the foot of the mountain, or exhaust all your strength and collapse halfway up, only then do you know its majesty and grandeur.

He couldn't help but repeat the explanation his teacher gave him when he first started learning "Canon": "'Canon', a type of polyphonic music, originally means 'rule'."

It can also be considered a type of Loop pattern.

However, this piece doesn't make one feel bored, nor does it make one feel monotonous, and even less does it make one feel repetitive.

Very wonderful, extremely wonderful!

He even felt that this "D Da Diao Ka Nong" was more brilliant than most of the "Canon" pieces he had studied!

After Meng Yangguang listened to Ding Xiaoyu's "piano version" three times in one breath, he was already deeply immersed in it, not even realizing when he had clicked "download" and paid Luo Mo.

Immediately after, he clicked on the version by the Huihuang Orchestra.

This version had more Yueqi.

"Luo Mo is already able to collaborate with the Huihuang Orchestra multiple times." He gave a bitter smile.

Looking at himself, when he was studying the violin, he had even thought about taking a few lessons from a certain violinist in the Huihuang Orchestra.

His parents pulled many strings, but in the end, he didn't get to take it!

If he could have taken that lesson, he could have bragged about it in the violin group chat for a long time.

"This is the gap," Meng Yangguang thought.

He was just an apprentice, while that person's music could already have hall-of-fame figures perform it.

The music of the Huihuang Orchestra's version of "D Da Diao Ka Nong" echoed in his ears.

"Hmm? It starts with the cello."

"Then following it is the violin."

"There should be a total of three violins, joining in sequence at intervals of eight beats."

"There are only three different violin melodies in total, with each segment of only two bars of melody repeating."

"Hey, the cello part from beginning to end should also only have two bars, and it has repeated... no less than 20 times!"

After Meng Yangguang finished listening once, in order to figure out the number of repetitions, he couldn't help but listen again.

Finally, the answer obtained was: the cello repeated a full 28 times!

"Amazing! Simply amazing!"

Even though it constantly goes through a cycle, this melody just doesn't make people feel monotonous, and it doesn't even make you feel like it's repeating!

Meng Yangguang slumped in his chair, unable to help but recall the First Day of the official recording of "Creating Idols".

He was wearing a carefully prepared performance outfit, holding a high-priced custom violin.

That man, who was brought in by the production team to make up the numbers, was earning double overtime pay, wearing a simple white short-sleeved shirt and black shorts, forming a sharp contrast.

The spots for A Class were already full; if Meng Yangguang still wanted to get into A Class, he would have to pick someone to battle and kick them out.

At that time, Xu Chujing asked all the trainees who had already entered A Class to stand up, letting Meng Yangguang and the others choose their opponents.

Fresh and inexperienced, high in confidence, and feeling like he was incredibly fierce, Meng Yangguang thought his gaze was like lightning and could bring a strong sense of oppression to this group of people.

In reality, as he looked over them, the expressions of these nine A Class trainees were, respectively: nervous—nervous—amused—nervous—……..

Hmm, it seemed like something strange had mixed in?

Hmm, it was that kid in the short-sleeved shirt who had friction with him before the official recording!

Meng Yangguang didn't even think about it and challenged Luo Mo.

And then, he was actively chosen by Luo Mo for a violin duel.

He still couldn't forget how this casually dressed young man's entire temperament seemed to change the moment he raised his violin.

And he couldn't forget even more how he calmly stated his piece:

"Violin piece—'Confession Night'."

Time flew by, and so much time had already passed.

Shen Mingliu and Ji Kangdong from the same company had debuted under Pineapple Entertainment as the limited boy group NINE-T, which had now disbanded because their time was up, and they had returned to Xingshi Entertainment.

The three of them had even released several songs this year, and each had released their own albums.

To this day, not a single song had been more popular than Luo Mo's instrumental piece "Confession Night"!

Thinking of this, Meng Yangguang opened the Hot Song Chart on Penguin Music and began to search.

Sure enough, "Confession Night" was actually still hanging on the Hot Song Chart, at number 51.

The comment count had broken 500,000!

This made Meng Yangguang unable to help but think: "Then, to what extent will this 'D Da Diao Ka Nong' reach?"

One had to know that in the music scene that year, many Singers who released new songs were left stunned.

"What the hell? My new song is being ridden on the chart by a violin piece?"

Tao Jie Chen Shanqi was the biggest victim; she was ridden on the chart all the way, and it never stopped.

Fortunately, she eventually joined Luo Mo's camp; she figured it out, and her path was widened.

Meng Yangguang began to feel sorry for the Singers who were about to release songs recently.

After all, if you get beaten down on the chart by someone else's song, that's easier to accept.

To be rubbed into the ground by an instrumental piece, doesn't that just mean—what kind of trash are you singing?

Someone else's instrumental piece has no singing, yet it still sounds better than your singing!

"It's just that it's Saturday now; the New Song Chart and the Rising Chart look at the cumulative data within a week." Meng Yangguang felt a little regretful.

The battle of the charts might not be decided for the time being.

"Huh! Let me go check the group chat." He suddenly thought of this.

He was too lazy to look at the Xingshi Entertainment group chat for now.

Because in this group, the two words "Luo Mo" were taboo!

Their big boss had long hated Luo Mo to death because, due to Luo Mo's existence, the company had earned much less money and had even lost too much money.

What Meng Yangguang wanted to look at were those violin groups.

Sure enough, just as he expected, the group chat was exploding because of "Canon"!
