......

"Lu Ren, since you don't have all five notes, you don't necessarily have to be the lead singer, right? Can you also go behind the scenes and help our band rearrange "Mermaid" to give it a try? ”

The beautiful female voice cut through the chaotic boundless thoughts, and Lu Ren opened his eyes in a daze-

The blue sky sleeps beneath the sea,

The clouds are like a beluga whale at rest,

The coconut tree grows face down from the sky,

The dragonfly flew against the light and accidentally hit the sea and sky.

A salty breeze was blowing, the lazy sun was not dazzling, and he was lying leisurely on a beach chair.

It's like experiencing a hangover, and the upside-down world in front of me is slowly spinning back into place....

"Joke, what a joke, there is no real person in the reality show, I am almost dying of laughter."

"That's not it, those rich second-generation people just quietly sleep on the second and third line of real idols, and they want to specialize in the "Discover the True Star" reality show, saying that they want to discover real superstars who compete with virtual idols, I think they actually want to openly choose the harem to engage in impart!"

"What market is there for real idols now, and people can barely fight in the ring with virtual idols, how can real people sing and act, and still write songs, novels, and scripts? Cai Tianwang, who was the hottest in the past, couldn't do it....."

Ethereal voices sprung up in Lu Ren's mind.

"Reality TV? Not a single real person? ”

These doubtful words naturally sounded in his heart, and the upside-down scene in front of him was finally corrected.

At this time, two white and round long legs and a good-looking melon seed face broke into his field of vision.

Then came a sincere apology:

"Lu Ren, I apologize to you first, we didn't mean to target you.

"The main thing is that you replace the lead singer of our Sanhua Cat Band. Although your lead singer was arranged by the director of the show, I still hope that you can help communicate with the director-

"You give up this lead singer position, and I'll do it, okay?"

Even though the tone of the beautiful girl in front of her was very sincere, even if the girl spoke with a smile, Lu Ren, an old guy who had lived for almost a hundred years, still read a lot of unwillingness and grievances from her words and eyes.

He looked up at the little girl who came out of behind him—

She was a beautiful young girl, in her early twenties, and the most striking thing was her ears, made of silvery-white liquid metal, which flowed in the sunlight with a brilliant color.

It seems to be called Jasmine, and she is a reformer trainee contracted by Xingfeng Entertainment.

The so-called transformation of human beings refers to the scientific and technological transformation of the body in order to obtain a special group of human beings who can surpass the abilities of normal people.

This kind of technology had already appeared in the early days of the Smart Machine War, and Lu Ren was not too surprised.

It's just that the technology of transforming people is obviously much better than it was in their time, and there are hardly any exposed electronic circuits to be seen.

In an instant, a strong urge rose in Lu Ren's heart to open Jasmine's skull to see the layout of the wiring inside.

Occupational disease is committed again.... He mentally restrained the anachronistic thought.

The question I heard when I first opened my eyes was also shouted by this Jasmine.

Combined with what Jasmine just said, it roughly means that I am the lead singer of the band, but the five notes are incomplete and the singing is ugly, and she wants to replace it?

He didn't answer immediately, but searched his mind for relevant memories.

Some memory fragments poured in like a tidal wave—

He was originally the low-level composer of Xingfeng Entertainment, because he didn't write any good songs for half a year after joining the company, he was rented by the "Discover the True Star" program team to do chores, responsible for audio equipment maintenance, post-sound repair, etc., and was regarded as a temporary worker in the program team.

Then because of the sudden exit of trainee No. 3, he was jointly decided by the company and the program team to become the replacement of No. 3 and became the new lead singer of the Sanhua Cat Band.

At the same time, he also became the only real trainee of "Discovering the True Star".

The rest of the trainees are all transformers or virtual humans.

And his new lead singer is not popular with the rest of the band, even though they are both Starwind Entertainment.

The reason why the company chose him is not only because he is not inferior to the fairy appearance of the top virtual couple, but also because he is sick-

Athania!

It is a congenital genetic disease.

Suffering from athemia, he was born with pentatonic insufficiency in singing, which could not be corrected by acquired training.

However, in terms of hearing, the original owner has the rare gift of absolute hearing, and can recognize the pitch name of any sound without a reference sound.

Like the Beethoven known to Lu Ren, Dong Chou is the representative of absolute tonality.

And he is now more like Conan in the anime, who also has an absolute sense of tone, but if he sings, he will directly become a death songr.

This is the biggest reason why the original owner is obviously super good-looking, but finally chose the composition department behind the scenes.

As for why the pentatonic incompleteness is recommended by the company as the lead singer, because the company is playing a contrast.

After exiting on the 3rd, the Sanhua Cat Band had no strength to compete with the virtual human trainees, and the original company planned to find another way to attract attention and traffic in this contrasting way.

obviously has an absolute sense of tone, but the congenital five tones are incomplete, and he is still the lead singer of the band, this contrast publicity is also very interesting.

Wonderful stage performances can make people's eyes shine,

The scene of a car accident that is out of tune can also make people laugh.

As long as there is traffic, black and red are also red.

Moreover, "Discovering the True Star" is positioned as a casual competitive life show, and strength is not the most important, but the important thing is leisure and life show.

But it's clear that the rest of the band doesn't want to be so bad.

They don't want to be labeled as a funny band, and they still want to do their best.

So, during the rehearsal of the talent show for the mentor, he used all kinds of small actions and cynicism, and finally provoked the good-tempered original owner and went directly to the beach to lie down and sleep.

This sleep brought him, an old guy from a thousand years ago, to sleep.

Now that his memory was confirmed, he actually quite understood the thoughts of this group of young people.

Thinking about it from another perspective, I finally tried my best to come to a reality show that the whole country is paying attention to, but I was arranged by the company to put on a bad flow, and no one would be reconciled.

Young man, he was also young, and he understands very well.

Everything is excusable, so he, the old guy, is ready to take the initiative to take this step back first.

If the five tones are not complete, don't occupy the pit and don't, give young people more opportunities, maybe they can really make it?

Thinking of the song they rehearsed, Lu Ren naturally asked from the perspective of the arranger behind the scenes: "What style do you want to adapt Lin Junjie's "Mermaid" into?" ”

Hearing this, Jasmine first frowned, and then said with some doubts:

"Who is Lin Junjie?"

""Mermaid" is a song before the intellectual machine war excavated by the Lu consortium, and the copyright of the lyrics and songs belongs to all mankind, so there should be no saying who it belongs to."

Hearing Jasmine's supplementary explanation, a bolt of lightning slashed through Lu Ren's mind, and mixed information came again.

"It's 3023, 1,000 years have passed since 2023, and more than two hundred years have passed since the war of smart machines."

Thinking of this, Lu Ren really breathed a sigh of relief..... The war is finally over.

"During the nearly 800 years of the Robot War, the digital resources of mankind have been almost completely destroyed, music, movies, novels, games.....

"Until the end of the war, the AI chose to detonate a network of nuclear bombs in an attempt to die with humanity.

But humans, like the most tenacious cockroaches on the planet, still survived the nuclear washing.

The surviving human beings have survived the difficult era of nuclear contamination, relying on the only remaining paper materials, and are rebuilding civilization at a high speed..."

Judging from the current memory, it seems that these future generations of civilizations have been rebuilt well, and they all have the heart to make these bells and whistles reality shows!

Naturally, the corners of his mouth hooked up with a smile of relief.

"By the way, in addition to "Mermaid", our band also needs a song as a PK preparation, do you have any good ideas?"

In fact, Jasmine just asked politely, because they had already thought about preparing for PK songs, and asking this sentence just made Lu Ren feel a little involved in the band, and he didn't really want to prepare for the song proposed by Lu Ren.

"A Thousand Years Later." Lu Ren replied calmly.

Yes, there is no song that can express my state of mind at this time better than "A Thousand Years Later".

A thousand years have passed, and the vicissitudes of life.

The Si people are back, but the beautiful women are not there.

"A thousand years from now?" Jasmine thought for five seconds: "I searched the music library just now, and there is no such song, do you confirm that it is the five words 'a thousand years later'?" ”

"No?" Lu Ren was surprised, and then reacted, okay... I guess I haven't dug up this song yet.

If you think about it, paper materials for reconstructing civilization give priority to recording important scientific and technological and major historical events, and artistic materials such as songs, scripts, and novels have the lowest priority.

This decision was made by him and the top of the Human Alliance.

I don't know if it's an accident or an inevitability of history,

The piles of paper that carry human civilization still record some works of art, but like pop songs, only some classic old songs of the eighties and nineties are reproduced, and there are very few classic songs after the millennium.

To put it simply, the Chinese music scene in 3023 seems to be in the two time periods before 1999 and after 2019 at the same time.

Rock and Cantonese fly together, and electronic music is rapped.

From 2000 to 2019, the most golden 20 years of the Chinese music scene basically disappeared in the long river of time.

"It's this song, I can't be mistaken." Lu Ren repeated the affirmation.

"I see, it's your own original, right?" Jasmine took out a small notebook from her body and wrote these five words on it.

"It's not." Lu Ren denied it at the first time.

When he was reborn, he didn't rely on copying songs to gain fame and fortune, and now that he is living again as a young man with hands and feet, he is even more reluctant to do such a thing.

This is the last stubbornness of his music student who respects originality and resists plagiarism.

"It wasn't your original, so who wrote it?"

Lu Ren almost blurted out 'Lin Junjie', but he still held back.

Because he found it difficult to explain to others who Lin Junjie was.

And if more songs are sung in the future, and more people's names appear, it will be even more difficult to tell.

It is even possible to expose the secrets of your own travel.

"I found it." He replied without blushing and without a heartbeat.

"I see, those of you who are engaged in art creation like to say that you only discovered art, not created it."

Jasmine realized what Lu Ren meant, and the pale blue brushstrokes slid on the white paper.

She wrote Lu Ren's name on the lyrics column of "A Thousand Years Later".

It's just that in my heart, I am even more hopeless about this so-called original song.

Their band is not originally original, and it is best not to be original when performing in front of a mentor for the first time, and singing those well-known songs is the right way.

Unless your original song is really good.

But what good song can a marginal composer who has been assigned by the company to do miscellaneous work write?

She pretended to write down these five words seriously, and shook her head lightly inwardly.

"Is that so?"

After Jasmine finished writing, she turned the book to Lu Ren and confirmed again.

"That's right!"

Lu Ren nodded categorically.

As a seasoned business legend, he certainly has a flexible moral bottom line.

He deeply analyzed his heart, and he disdained to copy the song at that time because he had 10,000 bitcoins in his hand, so he naturally had enough confidence.

And now,

Can a full-fledged mission such a full-fledged thing as reproducing the gods of the Chinese music scene be called plagiarism?

Do you understand the Renaissance?

After seeing Lu Ren nodding, Jasmine took back the record book with satisfaction.

She originally thought that it would be very difficult for her to come out and communicate with Lu Ren, but she didn't expect to become the lead singer of the band so easily.

Although her singing skills are also average, at least she doesn't sing out of tune, so that she won't make the audience laugh.

In a good mood, she turned around and pretended to remind casually, "The four mentors will arrive in a while, so you don't have to be too nervous—"

Then in a friend-like joking tone:

"Because this time you don't have to go on stage, the pressure is on my side."

"Then I'll go to rehearsal first, see you later!"

"Well, come on!"

Lu Ren cheered her up.

He knew very well that this Jasmine's overture to him was because he voluntarily gave up the lead singer of the band and didn't really regard him as a friend.

Of course, he doesn't care about these things when he has been up and down in the business sea for half his life.

At this time, he still has a lot of confusion, such as the specific rules of the show, such as his identity.....

He always felt that his identity was a little strange.

I remember that I was indeed a staff member of the show, but I was not just a staff member.

In addition, my memories before I came to the island are also very vague, and I only vaguely remember that my parents died early, I came from the countryside, and I studied music.

After seeing Jasmine go away, he decided to try the original owner's dead singing voice first, wanting to see how ugly this five-tone incompleteness was-

"Because in a thousand years~"

However, as soon as he was about to sing this sentence from his throat, he was urgently braked by his brain.

Because suddenly a voice sounded in his head that did not belong to him.

"Do you want to switch to the original song [Lin Junjie]?"
