Rebirth: Rewriting Youth

Chapter 197 Unreliable

Standing on the podium of the semi-finals, Shen Yu was still a little nervous. Looking towards the judges' table, Xu Anzhi was holding his chin with one hand, with a faint smile on his face, looking at Shen Yu leisurely.

Seeing this, Shen Yu quickly averted his eyes, calmed down and said, "My song is "Code"."

“You do what I want and do more than anyone else.

I know everything you want to say and give.”

When Shen Yu first started singing, his voice was trembling because of nervousness. However, as he sang, Shen Yu gradually got better and his voice gradually stabilized.

At the end of the second chorus, which was the most difficult and highest-pitched part of the song, Shen Yu closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"You said you wanted to run away and let go
Love is too tiring and love cannot be free.”

Although Shen Yu handled the previous transitions and voice changes fairly well, he still became more and more stressed the more he sang, until he reached the last line of the seven falsetto C#5 lyrics.

"You will receive the code"

Shen Yu felt that he was about to suffer. Sure enough, when he sang this word, Shen Yu obviously felt that his breath was a bit out of control. The last two words could only be squeezed out by his vocal cords. Of course, the final effect was somewhat unsatisfactory.

Shen Yu felt that he was singing at the top of his lungs. As expected, it was taboo to change songs before the battle. Shen Yu regretted his haste.

Shen Yu lowered his head slightly and stared at the ground. Shen Yu was a little embarrassed and didn't dare to look up. He calmly finished singing the last verse, then exhaled a breath and bent down slightly to signal.

"Okay, go back and wait for the notice."

Hearing Xu Anzhi's voice from the judges' table, Shen Yu raised his head and looked at Xu Anzhi.

I saw Xu Anzhi curling his lips and nodding towards Shen Yu vaguely. The curly-haired girl next to Xu Anzhi turned her head to look at Xu Anzhi with a playful expression, then turned to look up and down at Shen Yu curiously.

Shen Yu nodded, glanced at Chen Zhuojun who looked calm, turned and walked out of the classroom.

"Hey."

As soon as he left the classroom, Shen Yu sighed regretfully. He originally wanted to rely on his own strength to enter the semi-finals, but his opponent was too strong, so he had to give it a try. Who knew something might go wrong.

It seems that this time we really have to see if Chen Zhuojun is reliable.

correct! Does Xu Anzhi know if he will help? He should, right?

Shen Yu shook his lips and thought, after all, we have eaten and drank together and are 'good neighbors'.

Judging from her seat at the judges' table, although she is only a deputy minister now, her status in the student union should not be low. This small matter should not be a big problem to her. The key is her attitude.

Thinking of this, Shen Yu shook his head and let him go. If he didn't pass, he would fail. At worst, he wouldn't participate.

Back in the dormitory, Cao Zhixin asked with a smile: "How was today?"

Shen Yu smiled awkwardly and replied: "I almost broke my voice, I guess it's too late."

Cao Zhixin was stunned for a moment, then joked and reassured: "It's okay, let Chen Zhuojun help later, he has guaranteed it."

"Let's talk about it later." Shen Yu said nonchalantly. He looked at Xu Xiang who was sitting on his seat like an old monk, pulled out his chair and sat down, opened his notebook and prepared to write.

Cao Zhixin stopped talking when he saw this.

At 10:[-], Chen Zhuojun came back in a hurry. As soon as he entered the dormitory door, he smiled and shouted to Shen Yu: "Shen Yu, feel free to prepare for the semi-finals."

"Oh? Passed?" Shen Yu turned to look at Chen Zhuojun and asked doubtfully.

"I said I guarantee you the semi-finals will be the semi-finals, how can this be false?" Chen Zhuojun said arrogantly.

"That's good, you can rest assured now. I will take my girlfriend to cheer you up in the semi-finals later!" Cao Zhixin said with a smile after hearing this.

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhuojun immediately smiled and said, "I'll call my girlfriend and give you the entire support team!"

"You've really had enough, can you please stop messing with me?" Shen Yu returned helplessly.

"By the way, Xu Xiang, are you going to the semi-finals of Shenyu's top ten singers?" Cao Zhixin asked again.

Xu Xiang raised his head, thought for a moment, and said, "We'll see when the time comes. I may not have time for my part-time job."

"Okay." Cao Zhixin didn't force it.

Shen Yu smiled and said to Chen Zhuojun: "I didn't perform well today, so I caused you trouble. Thank you!"

"Hi." Chen Zhuojun came over and put his arm around Shen Yu's shoulders and said, "Actually, I just made a suggestion, mainly because Xu Anzhi nodded, otherwise I guess I would have to waste some favors."

"Xu Anzhi? Is she the beauty who had dinner with us last year?" Cao Zhixin asked curiously.

"Yes, that's her." Chen Zhuojun responded.

"I remember she is just a deputy minister. Does she have such a big say?" Cao Zhixin frowned and asked.

Chen Zhuojun said with a serious face: "You are kidding! Don't you know that her uncle is the vice-principal of our school! The teacher of the school league committee used to be his uncle's student. Doesn't it matter that she can be the deputy minister as soon as she joins the student union? Don't They say they are the Minister of Culture and Entertainment, and they are the chairmen of our student union, who would dare not to give her face?"

"That's it!" Cao Zhixin nodded and said with a smile: "Then why don't you hug her long legs tightly!"

"You don't need to say that? I've already hugged someone's lap, okay! Otherwise, why do you think I can be so open in the student union?" Chen Zhuojun said with a proud look on his face.

"You are still awesome!" Cao Zhixin smiled and gave a thumbs up.

"The main reason is because we had a date last time, and she was more polite to me for the sake of my girlfriend." Chen Zhuojun said soberly.

Shen Yu stopped listening to Chen Zhuojun and Cao Zhixin's conversation. He took out his mobile phone and found Xu Anzhi's QQ number. After thinking about it, I sent a message: ‘Thank you. (Smiley face)’ After a while, Shen Yu received Xu Anzhi’s reply: ‘You’re welcome, be prepared next time. ’

'good. ’ Shen Yu returned.

Putting down his phone, Shen Yu had no time to think about coding. I closed the computer, took the washbasin and went to the bathroom to wash up.

After washing and lying on the bed, Shen Yu carefully thought about the song he was going to sing in the semi-finals.

Mao Piyi? no!

Zhou Sheng? Can't sing!

Jaylen? Shen Yu is not very familiar with the songs after "Exclamation Point", and next year Jay Chou will release the worst album in history.

Li Ronghao? Li Bai? model? Black sauce? It's not appropriate either.

As for love songs, the new generation of male singers can only look to Lao Xue!
Shen Yu pinched his chin and thought to himself, Xue Zhiqian had a lot of love songs. After recalling them carefully, it didn't work. They were all bitter love songs.

Eh, that’s not right! There is one song that I feel is pretty good, and it’s quite new!

Extraterrestrial objects!

After singing it silently in his heart again, Shen Yu nodded, that's it!

After class and lunch on Friday, Shen Yu told Li Meng that he wanted to retreat and write songs.

Li Meng looked like he wanted to laugh but was embarrassed. He calmed down and finally teased: "Then come on."

Saying goodbye to Li Meng, Shen Yu drove to Xiangzhang Garden to try to play the music of "Extraterrestrial Objects" on his guitar.

But Shen Yu is not a professional. He has practiced guitar for more than half a year, but in fact he is only half-assed. He can only read the TAB music and play chords.

After trying for a long time, something didn't feel right. Shen Yu threw the guitar on the bed in frustration and gave up!
Sitting on the bed and sighing, Shen Yu looked at the scenery outside the window and felt worried.

What to do without accompaniment? Singing a cappella? Isn't this funny?

After thinking about it, Shen Yu decided to leave professional matters to professionals!
Pack up and go out. If you are in doubt, call a taxi driver!

Shen Yu stood on the side of the road for half an hour, hailing four taxis. The drivers didn't know anything about the music studio.

Finish the calf!
Shen Yu felt a little headache, and finally thought about it, he could go to the area near Jiankang Art College first! There should be music studios around the art school, right?

So he hurriedly drove to the vicinity of Jiankang Art College, found a parking lot and parked his car. Shen Yu came to the south gate of Jiankang Art College. The south gate of Jianyi is quite unique. Although it is not so grand, it has a sense of artistic design.

Before coming to Jianyi, Shen Yu had always heard that every Friday after school, there were countless luxury cars in front of Jianyi, all of whom came to pick up the girls who were all dressed up.

But at this time, Shen Yu was standing at the school gate, but he didn't find the so-called luxury car. Most of them are ordinary Volkswagen models. Occasionally BBA comes over, and they are not particularly luxurious models. Shen Yu guessed that it was the parents who came to pick up the children. After all, they were studying in art school and their families really couldn't afford it if they didn't have any financial resources.

Jianyi is known as the school beauty goddess factory. Naturally, there are many beauties, and they are all dressed up in fashionable styles. Basically, all of them are bright and attractive. There are very few boys in Jianyi, but they all have good appearance. Shen Yu felt that even if Chen Zhuojun from his dormitory came here, he would not be very competitive.

Although Shen Yu's heart skipped a beat several times after standing at the school gate for less than half an hour, business was still more important. Avoiding those pretty girls, Shen Yu chooses ordinary-looking girls to start with. If he sees a boy coming out, Shen Yu will go up and smoke a cigarette, then chat and ask if there are any music studios nearby.

After asking for a long time, an enthusiastic junior boy majoring in recording arts finally gave Shen Yu directions. In the Jianyi Back Block, on the row of commercial streets next to the river, Shen Yu found a music studio.

The storefront is not big, but as soon as you enter, you are greeted by a strong smell of smoke mixed with the smell of hot and sour noodles. Shen Yu frowned and looked inside. The store was littered with guitars, drums, electronic keyboards and other musical instruments.

A long-haired, yellow-haired man dressed in an artistic style was sitting at a small table sucking hot and sour noodles. Seeing Shen Yu enter the door, he quickly sniffed his nose, then took out the paper towel on the table, wiped his mouth casually, and threw the paper towel on the table. He stood up and asked: "Learning an instrument? Or recording?"

Shen Yu hesitated for a moment, then said: "Recording."

The long-haired Huang Mao wiped his hands on the tattered jeans again and asked: "Did you bring the music score? It's 600 yuan per piece, and the recording and mixing are all included."

"I" Shen Yu was about to speak, then thought about it and said, "Can I see the recording equipment first?"

Huang Mao looked at Shen Yu, nodded, and said while leading Shen Yu to the inner room, "Then come in with me."

Shen Yu followed Huang Mao into the small room inside. The small room was decorated into two areas. The recording area inside was also quite small, and the control area outside was a black desk with a computer and a very simple device that should be called a mixer.

Shen Yu felt that this mixer was about the same size as the one he saw at the Sanben University Student Union in his previous life. It didn't have the atmosphere of a recording studio that he remembered seeing online. Shen Yu felt that at least this mixer should be a special one with many buttons on it.

Seeing Shen Yu looking around expressionlessly, Huang Mao said quickly: "Don't look at the simple equipment here, but I guarantee the effect will not be bad! Don't worry about my professionalism, I graduated from Jianyi. Jianyi Many students are recording with me, so you can rest assured."

Huang Mao was still introducing his professional level, but Shen Yu was really worried about the equipment level, which was similar to that of a college student art troupe.

After muttering silently, Shen Yu asked: "I don't have the score, so I'll hum it for you. Can you write down the score?"

Huang Mao was stunned when he heard this, thought for a while, and said: "If the music is not complicated, it should be about the same if you listen to it a few times. But we have to talk about charging for this."

Shen Yu glanced at Huang Mao and asked, "How much do you want?"

Huang Mao looked at Shen Yu, and Ai Ai asked, "21500?"

Shen Yu didn't understand the market either, so he nodded silently. Huang Mao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Shen Yu nodding.

The two of them left the recording studio, and Huang Mao said, "Shall we start recording now?"

Shen Yu pursed his lips and said, "I'll think about it again."

Huang Mao was stunned for a moment, but still said with a smile: "That's okay, but don't worry, my skills are absolutely reliable!"

"Yeah." Shen Yu nodded and wanted to ask Huang Mao if there were any other recording studios nearby, but then he thought about it, asking this question wasn't just asking for trouble. So he said hello and went out the door.
