Have you ever been a celebrity? Why are you writing about entertainment?

Chapter 305 When pushed to the limit, even you'll get something for free.
"I heard that the AI ​​challenge in your competition was so difficult that two contestants withdrew from the competition due to frustration?"

Qi Luoan is currently taking exams and her surfing speed is noticeably lagging behind. She only saw that Tong Yulu and Chi Leying both withdrew from the competition, but she doesn't know the specifics of the situation.

Without any informants, she knew very little about Yu Wei's situation. Shen Yutong was busy in seclusion, and Qi Yuan turned her back on her after getting the song. She had no one left to rely on...

"That's pure slander. They wanted to withdraw themselves."

Classic contestants withdrew from the competition; netizens speculated about conspiracy theories surrounding the organizers, accusations of match-fixing, and the involvement of a "crown prince" (a term implying a powerful figure in the competition). The article also mentions that none of these theories apply to the competition.

While their withdrawal from the competition was indeed related to the overwhelming strength of the natives, it was not the main reason. The overwhelming strength of the AI ​​was just the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"That's what I see netizens saying."

Although Tong Yulu and Chi Leying were not favorites to win, they were definitely among the most popular contestants in the novel competition. Their sudden withdrawal from the competition caused a huge uproar.

Tong Yulu's withdrawal from the competition was reasonable and justified. She felt unworthy of winning the music competition by relying on abstract art, and withdrew because she respected music.

Regardless of whether it's true or not, her reason is at least plausible and sounds reasonable, which netizens agree with.

From a long-term perspective, advancing through underhanded means is indeed likely to attract criticism, while winning and then running away is undoubtedly a wise move.

Chi Leying's withdrawal from the competition was very sudden. Although she ranked third in her group, she was still able to take Tong Yulu's place and advance after Tong Yulu's withdrawal. Nevertheless, she withdrew from the competition without issuing any statement.

Netizens are also unsure of the situation, but they have seen many of Chi Leying's fans saying that it was the organizer's fault that led to her withdrawal from the competition.

You actually believe what your fans say?

Chi Leying's fans are definitely trying to save face for their idol by blaming the organizers, which can obscure the outcome of the competition and even make the result sound "unfair".

They certainly didn't want to admit they lost to their arch-rivals, so they could only try to mislead the public and shift the blame onto the organizers.

Unaware of the truth, the rumors spread like wildfire, and with some netizens' speculation, the story became that Yu Wei's AI was too strong, driving the contestant away.

After all, the local singers in this round of competition were indeed strong, as everyone could see, so this conclusion is entirely valid.

"People who don't know the situation might think I'm deliberately sabotaging the players."

The netizens didn't mean any harm; they just found it amusing that a group of grown people could be so angered by characters in a novel that they withdrew from the competition.
Yu Wei is incompetent, but he does things well.

It's tough for celebrities, but not for netizens. They've had their fun listening to the show. The contestants' smiles won't disappear; they'll just transfer to the netizens' faces.

"Is not it?"

Qi Luoan doesn't know if the rumors are true, but she knows what kind of person Yu Wei is. Other things might be false, but it's certain that he wants to sabotage the contestants.

She couldn't think of any other reason than to prank someone by having such a powerful character participate in the game.

Yu Wei was speechless for a moment. Was he that bad? He just wanted to release an album and select a few high-quality songs. What did he do wrong?

The numbers are indeed a bit too high...

This is just so everyone can have something good to eat.

"Alright, alright, why worry about so much? The competition still needs to go on."

Qi Luoan still has two exams to take. Once she's done, she'll rush over to find Yu Wei and get some tough work done together.

What will you write in the next round?

Although some people have withdrawn from the competition, the competition still has to go on, right? In the sixth concept group, apart from Meng Lei, the other two are both human-machine, which is not a peaceful situation.

In the previous rounds, each group had one AI that exceeded the limit so much. This time, they've got two. The numbers are going to be out of control!

Let us observe three minutes of silence for Meng Lei...

Yu Wei glanced at the book reviews and saw that many netizens were eyeing the comments and waiting for the new competition. If a local could make a star withdraw from the competition, wouldn't the star be driven crazy if there were two locals in the next group?
He was worried that someone withdrawing from the competition would affect the novel's popularity, but the opposite was true. It was precisely because the withdrawal rumors were so sensational that they attracted many new readers.

A fake competition and fake singers drove away a real star – if this is true, then we have to watch!
"Hurry up and bring on the next round of matches, I want to hear the stars' lamentations."

"The people upstairs are going too far. Meng Lei is an honest and kind person."

"So honest people deserve to be bullied, huh? Other groups only have one native, but his group has two, as if he's afraid Xiao Meng will advance?"

"What do you mean two? Aren't there n stars?"

Because Tong Yulu and Chi Leying withdrew from the competition, netizens' focus has changed. Before, they wanted to see who would win; now they want to see celebrities get humiliated in various ways.

Although it was unethical, seeing these professional players being thoroughly outplayed by Yu Wei's AI gave them a strange sense of pleasure.

Besides providing amusement, there's also a kind of schadenfreude that's beautiful.

Ideally, we should examine all the domestic entertainment companies without favoritism, so as to truly test the mettle of these 208 million followers.

"Write something lighthearted."

Although netizens enjoy watching, the fact that the local contestants are too strong is somewhat detrimental to the viewing experience, and over time, netizens will definitely become desensitized.

Everyone says he's too much of a native, so in that round, we'll play some lighthearted and entertaining songs to give everyone a laugh.

So far, the theme of the competition has been too serious, and coupled with the withdrawal incident, netizens have developed a somewhat stereotypical impression of the competition as "powerful and intense."

This time, let's break things up a bit so that everyone understands that his fake competition is mainly for entertainment, not to scam celebrities.

He's not that bad...

"A comedy theme?" Qi Luoan had actually guessed this topic, after all, Zhang Wei from Group 6 had already performed "Sunshine, Rainbow, Little White Horse" in the second round.

The characters' personal styles should remain the same, and the themes of the third round should be largely similar.

"No, there is no category for humorous novels; it should be comedy novels."

Thinking about this, Qi Luoan was already getting curious. He had just finished writing about painful literature and was now singing comedy. It was really interesting to cry first and then laugh.

Yu Wei replied with a nod emoji and started typing. This time there were two natives, so there were two songs to write. Time was tight and the task was heavy, so he had to write them as soon as possible.

Just as Qi Luoan had guessed, the theme of the next round of the competition was comedy. After the topic was announced in the main text of the novel, a new problem arose: which song should be chosen?

Da Laoshi's songs are easy to choose from. His works are mostly humorous and witty, so you can pick any one of them to enter the competition.

But "all stars" is a concept, and choosing songs is really difficult. Are there any comedy songs that are sung by a group of stars?
Yu Weizhen did recall a few poems, but even so, an even bigger problem awaited him—it was technically difficult to implement.

While there are few songs that meet the requirements, they do exist. However, it's practically impossible to get the voices of every celebrity out of the box in a short period of time.

In previous competitions, he sang one song at a time, and adjusting the sound was a real struggle. This time, he has to adjust two songs. Where does he find the time to adjust the duets with so many celebrities?

This is why Yu Wei insisted on killing off the stars in this round of plot development; it's too technically demanding, and if it didn't eliminate the technical staff, the programmers in the technical department would die of overwork...

"Is there any song that fits the theme and is also cost-effective?" Yu Wei stared at the screen for a long time, and after what seemed like an eternity, he started typing.

He actually came up with one!
……

"I need an informant."

Qi Luoan extended an invitation to Shen Yutong once again. Her best friend was the most reliable; who else would be willing to spy on her?

"Don't look for me, I'm busy."

Shen Yutong is completely immersed in art and cannot extricate herself. While other contestants find the indigenous characters terrifying, she is filled with fighting spirit towards them.

The opponent has to be strong; what's the point of bullying the weak? She's been listening to Yu Wei's new song from the third round of releases repeatedly lately and has learned a lot from it.

"I just don't understand, you're an old married couple, why don't you ask me for help instead of asking yourself?"

If you're just curious, why not just ask? There's nothing wrong with their relationship.

"I'm sorry to bother him. He's so busy. If I keep asking him questions, it'll just be too much of a nagging."

In short, she wanted to know Yu Wei's whereabouts at all times, but knowing that Yu Wei was busy, she could only find someone to keep an eye on him for her to relieve her longing.

"Fine, fine, fine. You're afraid of his nagging but not my nagging. You're too embarrassed to bother him, so you bother me instead. You're so fickle!"

Even the closest best friend felt heartbroken after hearing this. There was no love left. Her boyfriend was a person, but she wasn't?
Just as the two were about to exchange a few sarcastic remarks, they suddenly saw that Yu Wei's novel had been updated. Shen Yutong was particularly interested in the third round of the competition, so she clicked on it without thinking.

It only costs 7 coins per chapter, what a waste! They dare to publish such a short chapter...

"It's a comedy, so it's kind of interesting."

She wasn't very familiar with this style of music, so this was a good opportunity for her to learn more. Yu Wei was so well-rounded; she could learn a lot of new things from him.

The intro began with a light and even somewhat childish electronic melody, like background music for a children's cartoon, which dampened Meng Han's expectations even further.

However, when the stars began to sing the first line, he straightened up slightly.

This voice was completely different from the contestant's deep voice when he spoke earlier; it was a clear, bright, youthful tone.

Before the mentors could even think it through, the lyrics fell like a torrential rain, the rhythm suddenly quickened, and the boy's voice became urgent, as if he were running and telling his story.

The voice instantly changed, becoming a steady, dignified middle-aged male voice with chest resonance, resembling a worried monarch.

"The king was extremely anxious and ordered the warriors to set out."

Shen Yutong didn't quite understand the singing plot. Since it was a group of stars singing, there were many different voices, right?

The singer in the novel is called Qunxing (群星), a conceptual god who specializes in singing choral pieces. It seems that Yu Wei has put on another grand chorus this time.

The song title is a bit strange, what is "Da La Beng Ba"? And what's this "Thunder Ga Ba"...?

It's not a duet; it's a single with a variety of vocal styles, and it was Yu Wei's final solution. Without a doubt, it's a fun song with a strong comedic element, which fits the theme.

There are many different voices in a group song, and there are many different voices in "Da La Beng Ba" as well, no problem.

Most importantly, this song doesn't require adjusting the voices of every star; it only needs one singer with a versatile voice, which greatly reduces the difficulty of the mixing process.

The programmers can breathe a sigh of relief, but this puts the singers in a difficult position. That's right, the unlucky one is Yu Wei herself.

There's no way around it; someone has to go all out, whether it's the programmer's hair or his voice...

The competition time was too short; even if the programmers worked themselves to the bone, they wouldn't have enough time. But Yu Weiran could still turn the tide and revitalize the entire situation.

In order to save time, money and manpower, Yu Wei decided to tough it out on himself.

A true master of getting something for nothing must be prepared to take it for nothing even if pushed to the limit.

He did the work of a constellation of stars, and he made a fortune.
