"Sailing through life, drifting to the ends of the earth, sipping sorrow’s brew, ward by mories, thinned by thoughts of you…"
In so room.
Yang Zhongming was sitting quietly, headphones on, listening to the song "Dongfengpo".
As the lyrics "Who breaks the east wind with a lute?" ring out, a faint smile gradually appears on Yang Zhongming’s calm face.
"Gong tone, so that’s it."
He nods slightly, eyes glowing, fully feeling the creative spirit of the song.
This boy, didn’t let him down after all.
As for the season ranking, Yang Zhongming did not check.
Since a few years ago, he stopped checking the seasonal rankings after releasing a song.
For Yang Zhongming, the release of a song signified fulfilnt.
Being first isn’t his goal.
Suddenly.
The phone rang.
Yang Zhongming looked at the caller ID, it read "Lu Sheng". A faint smile touched his lips, as if expecting the call to co -
Lu Sheng!
The youngest maestro in Blue Star’s history, in many people’s minds, Lu Sheng was even more adept than Yang Zhongming!
Yang Zhongming picked up the call.
"Brother Zhongming, looks like you’ve t your match. Don’t lose to a junior before you’ve lost to ," the voice on the other end of the line was slightly teasing and challenging.
"Maybe."
Yang Zhongming didn’t seem bothered by the banter or the challenge.
After all these years, he was used to it.
The voice on the other end of the line grew serious: "Marrying classical and modern music styles in such a uniform manner has always been the direction of my study. I didn’t expect that a junior could write such a song before …"
Yang Zhongming said, "You’ve been in Han Continent for too long."
"What?"
Lu Sheng was confused.
Yang Zhongming smirked, "If you paid enough attention to Xian Yu, you would know that ’A Sea of Laughter’ was the start of his investigation into pentatonic musical styles. This song is an extension and exploration of that style. Although the Gong tone was reversed in the previous attempt, while this ti, it’s in the correct order, it’s all just playing with Gong tones."
"Don’t hang up, I want to listen."
Lu Sheng’s voice showed a certain strangeness.
After a few minutes, Lu Sheng suddenly shouted, "This Xian Yu is the sa as you, a monster!"
Yang Zhongming: "…"
Zheng Jing seed to enjoy saying, that he was a big pervert, and Xian Yu was a small one.
Where did that boy even resemble him?
"Ah!"
Suddenly, Lu Sheng screams, "Your ’Blue Star’ is plagiarized!"
Yang Zhongming rolled his eyes for rare, "Did I copy your song?"
"You plagiarized Xian Yu’s song! You copied ’A Sea of Laughter’!" Lu Sheng’s voice was certain.
"Great music must be produced with ease."
Yang Zhongming smiled again, "Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zhi, and Yu, the simplest of scales. Indeed, Xian Yu gave this idea and hence, there is ’Blue Star’. Using the simplest of scales to create the grandest of feelings."
Yang Zhongming knew very well what Lu Sheng ant by "plagiarism".
The inspiration for his song "Blue Star" cos from one of Xian Yu’s previous songs.
The chord progression may not have anything to do with plagiarism, but Yang Zhongming has to admit that the inspiration for this song ca from Xian Yu’s "A Sea of Laughter".
In The Masked Singer.
Xian Yu sang this song as the Prince of Lanling and Yang Zhongming just happened to be a judge at that ti.
After hearing this song, Yang Zhongming was inspired to create "Blue Star".
He seized the phrase "great music must be produced with ease".
Simple doesn’t necessarily an superficial.
Well used, it could even reveal a sense of returning to the origin.
"Just joking."
Lu Sheng chuckles, of course, it wasn’t plagiarism, "This Xian Yu might even break my record!"
Lu Sheng was the youngest maestro in the history of Blue Star.
Lu Sheng had thought that this record was his alone, and no one could break it in the future. However, he didn’t expect Xian Yu to appear on Blue Star!
In this man, Lu Sheng saw terrifying potential.
Yang Zhongming casually replied, "Your record isn’t worth much."
"I think it’s valuable."
Disgruntled, Lu Sheng continued quietly, "Seems like there’s no reason for to stay in Han Continent any longer, they’re about to join the rger soon."
"Hmm."
"Brother Zhongming, the years I’ve spent in Han Continent haven’t been fruitless, the music scene here isn’t simple."
"Oh?"
Yang Zhongming frowned, "What do you an?"
Lu Sheng’s voice held an odd note, "Things are developing too fast here, it’s a bit like Qi Continent. It has its unique music style. This recent years, music composed in the local dialect has been more popular than music in Mandarin. Plus, the quality is ever improving. It’s a bit like when music was booming in Qin Continent."
"You an..."
"The position of Qin Continent as the land of music may be challenged by Han Continent. This brand-new music style will shock the entire world."
Lu Sheng was quite certain about Han Continent in his remarks.
"Is that so."
Yang Zhongming chuckled, "Then I’ll have to study it carefully."
Lu Sheng said, "It’s indeed worth studying. I’ve been trying in recent years, and the results have been pretty good. The music style here is very mature. Soon, next year, the music from Han Continent will impact the market…"
Yang Zhongming mused.
Including Zhong Continent, Blue Star consists of eight continents. Enjoy new adventures from .Côm
Zhong Continent doesn’t have a distinctive feature because it integrates well.
However, the other seven continents have their own distinct local cultures, which can be found in their novels, music, and even films.
"However…"
Lu Sheng interjected, "Qin Continent’s music is undoubtedly the best in Blue Star. I just think that the music of Han Continent also has many rits. It’s the only continent that can keep up with the pace of music in Qin Continent."
Yang Zhongming nodded.
Lu Sheng continued, "If nothing unexpected happens, Xian Yu should be vying for the title of maestro soon. He has enough ability, it just depends on the way he chooses to do it. I hope he doesn’t follow the sa path as , it’s not easy."
Lu Sheng beca a maestro thanks to one particular piece of work.
Back then, people said that Lu Sheng becoming a maestro was sheer luck.
To prove himself, in the second year after becoming a maestro, Lu Sheng held a twelve-ti championship in the seasonal rankings!
After that, no one dared to say that Lu Sheng becoming a maestro was just luck.
But now that Lu Sheng thought back, he felt it was a path full of thorns.
If given another chance, he wasn’t even sure if he could hold the championship for twelve tis again.
Yang Zhongming stayed silent.
He was actually curious about which route Xian Yu would choose to challenge the maestro title.
"Speaking of which, could the song ’Dongfengpo’ claim the maestro award directly?" Lu Sheng seed to be asking Yang Zhongming, while also thinking out loud.
"It falls a little bit short."
Upon so thought, Yang Zhongming answered.
From a creative perspective, it suffices, but it falls short in certain aspects.
Currently, most of the songs that could directly claim the maestro award with a single piece were instruntal music.
And "Dongfengpo", while still primarily pop, was hard to break away from the confines of lyrics.
"That’s true."
Lu Sheng grimaced, "If I were a judge, I would award the prize directly to ’Dongfengpo’."
Yang Zhongming said nothing.
The next day, the fierce battle between Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen had intensified, and the dia was reporting non-stop!
