182 Some People (1/2)

That chance, however, never came.

Chen Xiaoyan was eliminated for real.

Ye Lingchen logged in to Singer Y's Weibo, and as expected, a lot of messages appeared, many of which were people showing their displeasure at him.

The song he wrote was eliminated.

Ye Lingchen pursed his lips. Regardless of what reason it was, even a Prodigy like him could feel the heat on his face. It was rather embarrassing.

It appeared that Singer Y still carried little weight in the eyes of some people!

His eyes narrowed slightly.

He clicked on the 'original songs' page of QQ Music, applied to become a singer, and recorded his original songs.

The name he registered as a singer was Y!

After fine-tuning the melody, he was ready...to start!

Ye Linchen was ready to start singing!

The entire plan had already existed previously, but it was brought forward ahead of its schedule. Judging by the current trend of things, it might prove to have a positive impact on his popularity.

Ye Lingchen was naturally good at singing and had already achieved full proficiency.

He had perfect control of emphasis, pause, timbre, and tone. Although he was born with the voice he had and could not change it anymore, it was by no means unmelodious to the ear. At a stretch, his five classes of initial consonants in Chinese phonetics[1] were considered fairly adequate, and there was no issue whatsoever with his skills.

Ye Lingchen took a deep breath and slowly calmed himself down.

A serene and somewhat undulating voice began to unfurl from his mouth.

”Some people travel the world, some people work hard their whole life

Some people sweet-talk, and some have long been numb

Some people think the poor love the rich, some people only think of money

Some people are careful; some, they just don't care

...

Some people change themselves to try and stand out

Some people hide away from prying eyes around

Some people are devils but pretend to be saints

Some people love blindly, but some can't see at all

Some give their everything, some don't say a thing

... ”

Ye Lingchen's voice was magnetic. His mood shifted as the song progressed—there was calmness at times and then an occasional hint of anger. All those feelings blended perfectly with the melody and lyrics. He was the composer of the song, so there was no need to foreshadow anything. He could devote himself wholeheartedly to it.

At a duration of 4:21, the recording was complete.

It was titled ”Some People”.

Ye Lingchen directly clicked upload without listening to it.

It lay in wait amongst countless songs, biding time until it stood out!

Ye Lingchen paid little attention to it and logged out of the recording platform.

Behind the scenes of QQ Music.

Several employees were discussing the latest songs together.

They were all music editors who were responsible for reviewing the songs. A great number of new songs had to be reviewed to eliminate music that was vulgar or of low quality. At the same time, music deemed to have potential would be selected and promoted on the platform. Such songs had the potential to become a hit.

The job of reviewing was boring, so they often discussed in a group and gossiped on occasion.

Little Chen was one of the employees. At that time, he was uploading to ”Chaser of the Light”, ”Boundless Sea and Sky” and ”Light Years Away”.

The copyright of those three songs had been purchased by QQ Music.

Little Chen was also a fan of Chen Xiaoyan. He played those three songs while they were uploading.

”Such a pity for Chen Xiaoyan. She sang so well, but she was eliminated and asked to leave. China's Top Voice is a really stupid show!”

”Exactly! I don't know why Hong Na would target Chen Xiaoyan. They didn't clash with each other before this!”
