Chapter 104 Two Songs

"Yes, Teacher Qu Yin is currently riding high, and those guys clearly want to climb over her to get ahead. Their intentions are despicable!"

"Teacher Qu Yin was reckless. You have to admit, young people are just too hot-blooded. They get all worked up and act without thinking when they are provoked. If he loses in the end, he will definitely be condemned by everyone, and the prestige he has worked so hard to build will be completely lost. He may even never recover."

"But at that time there really wasn't a good way out. We either had to cower and hide or fight back. Those Californians timed it too well."

Barbara clenched her hands in front of the television, her palms sweaty and her face full of worry.

Ying and Kong were already stunned, and Ying couldn't help but punch Kong.

"Why did you hit me?" Kong asked innocently.

"Nothing much, I just think the people in the California band are really hateful."

Empty: ┭┮﹏┭┮

Ellie was also restless, except that she was excited, thrilled, and proud.

"Chikura is amazing! She truly deserves to be my best friend, Alicia!"

Mei looked at the television with a complicated expression, nodded and shook her head, and finally sighed.

"What's wrong with Mei?" Ellie asked, turning her head to the side.

"It was the right choice for Qu Yin to accept the challenge. If he had refused, it would have been a huge blow to his rising popularity. But if he accepted, he could only win, and if he lost, the consequences would have been even worse."

"Then let's win!" Ellie waved her little fist. "I believe in Chiku. He wouldn't be so reckless if he wasn't confident."

"I hope so," Mei said, unsure of what else to say.

At this moment, after the show ended, Bronya barged into the room and grabbed Bai Qianqu's shoulder.

What are you doing?!

"I'll accept the challenge," Bai Qianqu said innocently. "We're going to compete anyway, so what's the big deal?"

"It's different!!!" Bronya felt like she was about to collapse. "If it were a private match, no one would know it was you, and it wouldn't matter if you lost. But now the whole world probably knows that Qu Yin is going to compete against some random team! If you lose—"

Bai Qianqu suddenly waved her hand, interrupting Bronya.

He flashed the same confident smile as Ellie.

"Then let's win!"

Looking at the incredibly confident Bai Qianqu in front of her, Bronya's heart suddenly raced.

Recalling Bai Qianqu's comment on the show that she had someone she liked, Bronya touched her warm cheeks.

Who does Chigura like? Is it Airi or—

Her heart was beating even faster.

The news of Qu Yin's battle against the California band spread like wildfire, exciting many people. In keeping with the principle of "the more drama, the better," many people exaggerated the story to their friends and family, emphasizing how arrogant and domineering the California band was and how heroic and valiant Qu Yin was.

Suddenly, the California band became a villain hated by everyone, while Qu Yin became the hope of Changkong City.

In this world, rap, as a new form of musical expression, has rarely appeared in songs from China, and many people are hearing this term for the first time.

As the incident involving Quyin continues to unfold, more and more people are hearing about and learning about this new phenomenon.

There were differing opinions among the crowd regarding rap. Some people thought that this style of singing was too noisy and that the lyrics often contained profanity, making it simply trash music.

Some people, however, love it so much that they become completely absorbed in it, believing that this is the real music, saying what others dare not say and singing what others dare not sing, full of a spirit of rebellion.

Most people remain neutral; they will support the music as long as it sounds good, regardless of how it is presented.

Therefore, although Bai Qianqu is a composer in Changkong City, people do not deliberately protect him. If his songs are not as good as others', people will still not give him face.

Bronya thought Bai Qianqu would prepare carefully, but to her surprise, Bai Qianqu did the same thing as usual for the next few days, eating and drinking as usual, going to work in the morning and coming home in the evening.

It seems as if the challenge with the California band never happened.

Finally, Bronya couldn't hold back any longer and pulled Bai Qianqu into her office.

Seeing Bai Qianqu drinking tea, Bronya was furious: "Qianqu, didn't you say you were going to beat the California band? Why are you acting like nothing happened? How are you going to win? Where's your song?"

Bai Qianqu took a sip of tea and comforted her, "Don't worry, Bronya, I'm ready."

"All done?" Bronya was taken aback. She had originally planned to ask a rapper from the company to help Bai Qianqu compose a song if he wasn't prepared.

"Hmm." Bai Qianqu nodded and handed Bronya both "Reverse Pipa" and "My Sky".

Bronya took it with some skepticism, first picking up "The Reverse Playing of the Pipa" and reading it once, her brows immediately furrowing.

"How many people are you implying?"

Bai Qianqu looked indifferent. "Anyway, the innocent are innocent. Only those who are guilty will feel like they are being talked about."

“I’ve already recorded it, and the finished product is here.” Bai Qianqu handed another USB drive to Bronya. “Wendy sang it, and her voice has been altered so others can’t tell the difference.”

Bronya paused for a moment before taking the USB drive: "Anyway, this song was written by your 'friend,' so it doesn't have much to do with you, right?"

Bai Qianqu gave him a look that said, "You really understand me."

Bronya looked at "My Sky" again, and what she saw shocked her.

【

In the endless night

Everything is about to be destroyed.

At least I still have dreams

I was also moved by you.

The Beginning of Dawn

Right in my heart

As long as I still have dreams

You will see a rainbow

In my sky

】

If the previous song "Reversed Pipa" was a wolf baring its fangs and claws, then this song "My Sky" is an eagle soaring proudly across the sky.

There wasn't a single swear word, and no dissing of anyone, which is completely different from traditional rap.

This song simply expresses a genuine attitude towards youth, and the whole song is filled with vibrant and passionate emotions.

In Bronya's eyes, "My Sky" is like an eagle that disdains to associate with the mortal world, soaring alone in the sky.

Just like the lyrics say—

The outside world emits a powerful magnetic field.

Tempting every pair of wings about to unfold.

The beasts' struggles are none of its business; it neither participates nor cares. It only thinks about flying out of its own trajectory.

Bronya put down the lyrics and gave Bai Qianqu a deep look.

She suddenly understood why Bai Qianqu had agreed to the other party's request and insisted on writing a rap song as well.

After all, "The Reverse Pipa" is his attitude towards others, while "My Sky" is his attitude towards himself.

Bronya, who thought she had seen through everything, stopped worrying about the two songs. She suddenly realized that "My Sky" seemed to be a high-quality song!

Songs incorporating rap elements like this are extremely rare. If this song were used to enter next month's new song chart...

Chapter 105 Not a single chrysanthemum will remain.

You're sure to get a good ranking!

Bronya, caught up in her professional instincts, immediately became excited. She subconsciously compared this song with her previous songs and found the comparison to be excellent.

Unless it's a battle between the major and minor gods, this song is a shoo-in for the top five!

This result excited Bronya, but it also gave her a new understanding of Bai Qianqu's strength.

When did this guy finish writing this song?

Bronya didn't think Bai Qianqu was written recently; it was impossible to complete such a high-quality song in such a short time.

So that means—this song is an old stock!

Is Bai Qianqu's claim of having some knowledge of rap not just modesty, but a genuine understanding?

No! It's not just that I understand a little, it's that I understand a lot!

Otherwise, how could he possibly write such great rap songs?

Bronya looked at Bai Qianqu, who was calmly drinking tea, and suddenly a terrible thought popped into her mind.

Is this guy pretending to be weak while actually being strong?

Wow, I never would have guessed! This guy is so cunning?

But when Bronya thought about what those California bands would be going to do next month, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

If a song can make it into the top five of the new song chart, how can the other side compete if they send out an A-level composer?

This was a one-sided massacre!

No wonder this guy always looked so calm and collected; he was confident he had everything planned out!

Having figured things out, Bronya was no longer in a hurry. She smiled slightly, leaned back in her chair, and gave Bai Qianqu a meaningful smile.

Bai Qianqu was unaware that Bronya had labeled him a "wolf." If he had known, he would have certainly cried out that he was innocent.

It was clearly that group of California bands who came to us first!

He was merely acting in self-defense!

The main reason I wanted to write two songs was that I didn't want to reveal my identity, since quite a few people had seen my face back when I was at Xin Yan Bar.

To distance oneself from the situation, the best way is to create two different people, so that no one will suspect anything.

That was what Bai Qianqu had been thinking at the time, and she didn't think too much about it before saying it naturally.

I don't care if I have multiple aliases anyway.
