Chapter 69: The God of RAP

After a few days of warm-up, "American Idol" has officially announced the formation of the team today, and also announced that several heavyweight stars have joined as judges for the competition.

In the blink of an eye, "American Idol" was in the limelight for a while, and although it has not officially started, it has become the most talked about topic among countless young people with dreams.

The prestige of "American Idol" in the showme is even more overwhelming. After several continuous adjustments, as well as the launch of more functions, the number of registered users of SHOWME has exceeded 20 million, covering more than 20 countries and regions. The number of active users has also reached more than 7 million, and the highest daily unique IP traffic has exceeded more than 40 million.

Although the registered users of ShowMe and ShowYou are not comparable to other large websites, the activity is no less than that of any large community.

Coupled with the entry of more than a dozen superstars, it has stimulated the enthusiasm of fans, and the number of Weibo releases per day is close to 100 million. Each of those big stars has more than a million followers, and there are also quite a few 'homegrown' celebrities. Link's online talent show inadvertently created several more popular 'Internet celebrities', and the number of fans is no less than that of those big-name stars.

Most of these Internet celebrities are the 20 lucky winners, and then successfully attracted a large number of fans by uploading the video of the competition in ShowYou, and several of them have more than 10 million video views.

When they learned that each of the 20 lucky winners would have a contract with an annual salary of more than one million, everyone was very excited, and many more were very envious of their good fortune, and they just uploaded a video and changed their fate.

When Luthter informed the twenty lucky winners that they were going to be on TV, and the value of the contract was determined by each person's performance, the twenty lucky winners also thought of canvassing for themselves in the showme.

James was one of the twenty lucky winners, and as soon as he was notified, he logged on to the showme and posted a message about it.

"My dear fans, thank you for your support and encouragement, and thank you to CAA TV for giving me this opportunity. The competition program recorded by CAA TV will start broadcasting tomorrow, one episode a day, broadcast for a week, I hope everyone will watch it on time and vote for me! ”

In addition to James, several other lucky winners also had their own fans and supporters, each of whom posted an emotional tweet urging fans to tune in and vote for themselves.

And whether they are fans or not, many users have chosen to support them, because these 20 people are stars they 'created' with clicks, and they are popular with their own hands.

There's nothing more exciting than that, and so far, no public figure has been made popular by ordinary people, and most of them have been discovered by talent scouts to become famous.

Sure, maybe "American Idol" will be the first talent show where so many people vote in the ballot, but it hasn't started yet, has it?

In the anxious waiting of countless people, in the heated discussion of countless netizens, the progress of the preparation of "American Idol" has been hyped every day.

Producer Billy Thornton has been a guest on Fox TV talk shows for several days now, interacting with viewers on some of the latest American Idol information every time.

But Link didn't rush to hit "American Idol", but called Emnum and Andre first.

Early in the morning, a black Ford car stopped at the gate of CAA TV station, and two tightly wrapped guys got out of it, each wearing black sunglasses and masks, and people who didn't know thought they were terrorists.

The two men glanced up, then walked into the small building next to it with the sign 'Fahrenheit Media'.

Many employees of Fahrenheit Media and the Internet Department looked at these two people curiously, if it wasn't for the company of Bock, someone would definitely have called the police.

After the 911 incident, terrorists have become the biggest shadow in the hearts of the American people, and even a little thought about it makes me feel numb.

It wasn't until the two walked into Pock's office that one of them complained about throwing his mask and sunglasses aside.

"I say, Mr. Link, is it necessary to be so mysterious? Even if you want to keep it a secret, that's a bit too much. ”

Link, who had been waiting here for a long time, turned around with a smile: "Andre, this is called being prepared. ”

Link didn't explain too much, although he told the other party about his plan, but it was only a general statement, and Link didn't tell it all. No one but himself knew exactly what he was going to do and how he was going to do it.

"Pork, is the studio ready?" Link turned his head to look at Polke.

Poke nodded: "According to your orders, little boss, all the idle people have been cleared, only the necessary staff have been retained, and everyone has signed a confidentiality agreement, there will be no problems." ”

"That's good." Link then looked at Emnum: "Eminem, how do you feel about the lyrics I gave you yesterday?" ”

Emnum was still wearing sunglasses and a mask, as if he didn't care about the dress, and his voice seemed a little changed behind the thick fabric: "Link, who are you?" Why don't you be a rapper? Why do you want to do what bullshit TV is? ”

Instead of responding positively to Link's question, Emnum showed a palpable sense of anger. He received the lyrics sent to him by Link last night, and he was already very surprised by the lyrics that Link wrote to him last time, but after seeing this rap song called "rap-god", he couldn't help but enter his own world at that time, as if the lyrics and songs were what he wanted to express most from his heart.

This feeling made him excited, but more than that, he was really angry!

Because since Link can write such super-level lyrics and songs, he should enter the music industry more than go to any media company.

Link smiled bitterly in his heart, only he knew that this lyric was actually Emnum's global hit single in the future, and the songwriter was Emnum himself.

When a few people came to the recording studio, they found that there were only a few staff members, as if they had received a warning from Bock, and several staff members did not make too many surprises to the two strangers.

After some adjustment, Emnum approached the studio, and he first tried to look around, as if he couldn't remember the last time he went into the studio.

Link and Andre stood in front of the mixer, silently looking at Eminem across from them.

"Mr. Link." Andrei suddenly said, "Why did you choose Eminem? In the United States now, few people remember him, but you seem to have a lot of confidence in him. This question has been bothering me for a long time, so I'd love to know the answer. ”

Link was expressionless, his eyes looked directly at Emnum in the recording studio, and his voice became a little perforated: "Because, Eminem is the most special person I have ever met, he should be a king!" An invincible king in the rap world! ”

Andre certainly believed that Emnum was the king of rap, otherwise he wouldn't have been taking care of him for so many years, but after listening to Link's explanation, he still didn't find any answers. However, he understands that Link does have a great deal of faith in Emnum, and that's enough!

Emnum, who was in the studio, picked up the headset and put it on his head, he didn't even notice the gesture of the staff member opposite, because he suddenly felt his heart start to beat faster.

"Isn't that what I've always wanted?"

Emnum's palms tightened, and the music began to play in the headset, and his eyes began to become perforated, as if he had been immersed in his own world to the rhythm of the music.

He saw a throne, and he slowly walked up it. He heard the cheers of countless people, and he couldn't help but open his mouth, but it was as if he couldn't make a sound.

He tried several times in a row, and finally he got angry.

Link had been staring at Emnum, and when he saw the other party's stunned appearance, he couldn't help frowning slightly, but he still stopped the staff from preparing to remind him.

Andre on the side was also nervous, he had been observing Link, and when he saw the other party frowning slightly, he couldn't help but sweat in his heart, because he also saw Emnum's sluggish appearance.

The brief prelude was over at once, but Emnum still didn't seem to wake up, when AndrΓ© couldn't help but want to rush in. Emnham's eyes opened suddenly, but there was no sharp edge in his eyes, only a sense of indifference.

When Emnum spoke, it seemed that he could no longer stop, and the upper and lower jaws collided rapidly, and the radio recorded it word for word.

Andrew breathed a sigh of relief when he saw an audio track appear on the screen in front of him, and he glanced at Link again, and found that the other party had always remained still, and his expression had not changed.

"No wonder he has a lot of faith in Eminem."

Andrei couldn't help but think, because he couldn't even hold himself anymore, but fortunately, everything was perfect.

Emnum was so fully engaged in the rhythm that he didn't need to look at the score in front of him, and the words were pronounced clearly and continuously as the accompaniment flowed.

Gradually, Emnum had an expression on his face, a hint of anger. His voice took on a fierce anger.

When the backing track reaches 1:02, the next 60 seconds will be the time to test Emnum's rapping skills.

60 seconds, 300 words.

Link himself couldn't help but get a little nervous, but Emnum didn't notice it, and as the accompaniment began to pick up speed, his voice grew faster, and then faster and faster.

Although it is still in the recording stage, and there is no full version of "rap-god" yet, even so, the entire mixing room is already dumbfounded.

"Heavenly ...... Oh my God, is he still human? ”

A sound recordist's eyes widened, and no one knew Emnum's amazing performance better than him. At least nearly 200 of the 300 words were sung in 30 seconds, and there was only one change of breath in between. But whether the ventilation time is 0.1 seconds or 0.2 seconds, he himself does not know.
