Chapter 83 Life is about taking risks
Almost everyone who heard the new song said it was good.
However, it's not possible to play it for everyone yet; only the members of the music department listened to it together.
The members of the music department sat together, their faces filled with focus and immersion. The melody, like a lively sprite, leaped and echoed in the enclosed space, each note striking precisely at the heartstrings of everyone, and their bodies swayed gently to the rhythm.
Bai Li handed the piece to Shan Gui, asking him to play it for the rest of the department, hoping they would give some feedback. However, after the piece was played, no one could offer any suggestions.
It's not that they don't want to mention it, but the piece is already perfect. Making any minor modifications or adding anything would be superfluous.
As the music ended, the lingering notes still echoed in the air, yet the entire room fell into an unusual silence.
After a long silence, a sound engineer broke the silence, looking at the Mountain Spirit with disbelief: "Mountain Spirit, did you make this yourself? You're that powerful now?"
The mountain spirit had three black lines on its forehead, and it felt like they were mocking it. What did it mean to be so powerful now? Wasn't it powerful before?
But the mountain spirit didn't dare to talk back and truthfully said, "No, the boss is the first editor, and I am the second editor."
"You got to be the second editor? You're really lucky!" Another teacher looked at Shan Gui with envy on his face.
As everyone knows, there can be more than one arranger. The first arranger often takes the lead and grasps the soul of the whole song, while the second and third arrangers are responsible for supplementing elements and matching the ideas of the first arranger.
"Such a beautiful melody, you've been given a second arrangement." Another person clicked his tongue, his tone full of sourness. But the reason he was so jealous was because he sincerely admired the piece. He leaned back in his chair with his arms crossed, as if he was still savoring the melody.
Despite holding the title of director in the music department, seemingly the highest-ranking among them, Shan Gui's musical experience is far less profound than that of the teachers present. Each of them deserves to be called a teacher by him.
At that moment, one of them suddenly remembered something, his eyes lit up, and he leaned forward, asking expectantly, "This song hasn't had lyrics written yet, right? Did Boss Bai mention that he would write the lyrics himself? Or is it being written by someone else?"
Since I can't get a job as a music arranger, I might as well get a job as a lyricist.
The mountain spirit shook his head and regretfully informed him, "She said she won't fill in the script yet; we'll wait for her message."
Bai Li has her own ideas.
The rhythm and melody of this song are not suitable for the mountain spirit's deep voice.
The music department now has a professional production team, but no one can sing this song.
So she wanted to find a suitable voice to sing this song first, and then write the lyrics.
She recalled many talent shows she had watched before, such as "The Voice of China" and "Youth With Him," from which she could always discover one or two shining new stars.
—She wanted it too.
However, planning and launching a traditional talent show is undoubtedly a huge and complicated project. From the initial publicity and preparation and contestant recruitment, to the mid-term program recording and judge invitation, and then to the later editing, production, broadcast and promotion, each link requires a lot of time and energy. This is obviously too much for Bai Li, who urgently needs to find a suitable singer.
After much thought, Bai Li realized that the core reason why these programs were able to discover so many outstanding talents was that they broadly recruited talents from all walks of life and created an open, inclusive, and opportunity-filled platform where those with musical dreams could gather and shine.
In short, it can be summed up in four words: attract good relationships.
A bold idea gradually took shape in Bai Li's mind: instead of going to great lengths to hold an offline talent show, why not create an online version of a music competition?
In this era of highly developed internet, the power of the internet is boundless, capable of transcending the limitations of time and space and rapidly spreading information to every corner.
To attract more outstanding singers to participate, a generous and attractive prize pool can be set up.
First place: 500 million;
Second place: 100 million;
Third place: 50;
The top ten have 10.
Such generous rewards are unprecedented in online competitions, so there's no doubt that singers will be eager to sign up.
By then, she will be able to carefully select the most suitable person to sing the new song from among these contestants.
Moreover, they might discover some outstandingly good-looking contestants, sign them to their company, add new vitality to their business empire, and further enhance the company's influence and reputation in the industry.
At the same time, you can also gain a lot of goodwill points, killing two birds with one stone.
Bai Li thought about it more and more and felt that the idea was feasible, so she immediately summoned the music department and focused on promoting it.
---------------------------------------
In this era of information overload, the moment news of the event was released, it was like a boulder thrown into a lake, creating ripples that spread by word of mouth at an astonishing speed, instantly triggering a storm of public opinion among music lovers. The intensity of the reaction far exceeded everyone's expectations.
Everyone gasped in astonishment. After all, traditional offline talent shows might not even offer such generous prize money. How could an online competition not raise suspicions about such an astonishingly high prize?
"The prize money for this online competition is ridiculously high. Is it just a gimmick? There's no way it's so good. Maybe it's not in RMB, but some other cryptocurrency..."
"I'm afraid there might be some shady dealings involved, or that there are prerequisites for receiving the bonus."
However, when it was learned that the organizer of the competition was none other than the recently popular "Day and Night Entertainment," the tide began to turn, and the voices of doubt receded like a receding tide.
If it's "entertainment day and night"...
"Day and Night Entertainment has really gone all out! Although the prize money is unbelievably high, their company is known for its extravagance [laughing and crying emoji]."
"It seems that Day and Night Entertainment is determined to promote some new talents this time. I have already shared this news with my friends who love to sing. In any case, it can't hurt to give it a try."
"Wow, if I could win a prize, I'd be set for life! Anyway, I'll sign up and give it a try. What if I, Daoist Master, succeed this time!"
"Looking forward to it! The competition is sure to be super fierce, it'll probably be a battle of the gods, all the talented singers must be sharpening their knives!"
"Breaking news! To participate in the audition, you need to send your a cappella performance to the company email address of Day and Night Entertainment: xxxx@zy. Everyone, hurry up and sign up!"
The email inbox of Day and Night Entertainment Company was already overflowing with job applications for live streaming positions every day, and now it's getting even worse. One wave after another, it's gradually being overwhelmed by emails from the swarming contestants.
The music department professionals worked overtime to screen the received a cappella works, selecting potential rising stars from among the many contestants.
Having a leader who is both energetic and financially abundant is like this.
The entire company is "carrying a heavy burden" under Bai Li's leadership.
But amidst this busyness and exhaustion, boundless hope and possibilities are also brewing.
After all, life is about taking risks.
