"I'm so exhausted!"

"Finally home."

At about ten o'clock in the evening, Xia Dachuan and Xiao Tianpeng returned to the dormitory, both looking tired.

Isn't it nice to be comfortable in the dormitory? Go and suffer this.

Yunfeng was amused and asked, "Is the light show on the Bund good today?"

Xia Dachuan slumped in his chair and said weakly, "Stop talking. There are too many people. It's like a dense mass of ants, surrounding the Bund. It's impossible to get in or out. It's so crowded that I doubt my life."

Xiao Tianpeng sighed and said, "You are still foresighted. It's much more comfortable in the dormitory."

Yunfeng sat on the chair, leaned his head back, tilted his head slightly, and cast his gaze outside the balcony, saying: "I have never been to the Bund, the night view should be beautiful, in fact... I really want to go and see it."

The last sentence drew contemptuous looks from Xia Dachuan and Xiao Tianpeng.

Want to go and take a look?
Then when I asked you to go with me at noon, why did you refuse and even made up a bunch of excuses?

Xia Dachuan snorted, "I feel like you're making fun of us."

Xiao Tianpeng glared and said, "Next time, no matter what the reason is, I will carry you along with me."

Xia Dachuan echoed, "Yes, and Li Junyi, a dormitory must be tidy."

"Uh...this..." Yunfeng felt that these words sounded weird.

Xia Dachuan and Xiao Tianpeng went to wash clothes and take a shower respectively.

Yunfeng closed the document and that’s all for today’s writing.

He is not an emotionless typing machine; he needs to combine work and rest.

Yunfeng put on his headphones and opened Penguin Music.

He planned to listen to some songs on Blue Star and then select one from them to perform in the preliminary round of the campus singing competition.

As for "Dragon Fist", it will be used as the song for the finals.

The headphones were given as a gift when I bought the computer. They are very ordinary and are just for listening.

There’s no way. I want to buy better headphones, but I don’t have the money now.

Yunfeng clicked on today's recommendations on the Penguin Music homepage and started listening to the songs one by one.

To be honest, the songs on Blue Planet are pretty good. Although the cultural industry is developing slowly, it does not affect the emergence of good songs.

But there is a problem...

Most of the songs are in the genres of hip-hop, electronica and rock.

There are relatively few folk, pop, and Chinese-style songs. The "few" here simply means that there are few good songs, not that they are niche. Songs of these styles are still very popular.

In his previous life on Earth, Yunfeng was a typical post-90s generation who experienced the golden age of Chinese music. Among countless good songs, he liked Jay Chou's songs the most.

Therefore, the songs selected for the preliminaries tend to be Jay Chou-style songs.

I listened to the thirty songs recommended today in succession and selected three of them.

When participating in a singing competition, song selection is very important.

You need to understand your own level and know what types of songs you can sing.

And you must be the best at handling it, and don't be too arrogant, otherwise not only will you not sing well, but you will also expose your own flaws.

First of all, don't choose songs that are beyond your vocal range. If you don't have enough experience, don't choose songs that are emotionally rich and difficult to sing.

Secondly, the imitation should not be too obvious. Imitation is a double-edged sword. If used well, it can add points, but if used poorly, it will lose individuality.

Furthermore, don’t choose to sing a divine song lightly, as the song is difficult and has extremely high requirements on facial expressions and singing.

Finally, avoid choosing catchy songs.

After some consideration, Yunfeng chose a sad song titled "Lonely Years".

The preliminary selection is not very strict, but the judges will give a comprehensive score based on the songs sung in the preliminary round.

The higher the comprehensive score, the greater the advantage in the finals.

Because the final songs uploaded to the website will be ranked according to the comprehensive score, the ones ranked at the top will definitely have higher exposure.

So, we can't be careless.

"Why is there no love in my life? I always wait for dawn alone every night..."

After listening to it three times, Yunfeng started singing along.

After singing the song, I felt good about myself.

Xiao Tianpeng looked at Yunfeng in surprise and said, "Oh my god, you can sing so well?"

Xia Dachuan threw the empty mineral water bottle on the table over and scolded with a smile: "You bastard, you said you can sing well, but you sang so well that you got me wet!" "Get lost..." Yunfeng snorted, shook his head and sighed: "I was accidentally exposed."

Xia Dachuan stood up and came over, with one hand on the back of the chair and the other hand on the table, and asked, "Are you going to choose this song "Lonely Years" to participate in this campus singing competition?"

Yunfeng nodded and said, "Yes, is there a problem?"

Xia Dachuan changed his posture, propped his chin with his hand, and said with an "I know it all" look, "This song is a little too flat. It's better to choose songs that can sing high notes. The champion of the last campus singing competition sang "I Want to Fly". The high notes were passionate and uplifting, and they shocked people's hearts."

Yunfeng asked in confusion: "How did you know?"

Xia Dachuan's eyes widened as he said, "Don't you know? Yang An is a big star from our Magic City Conservatory of Music. He is nicknamed 'Prince of High Notes' and one of the four new generation kings."

To be honest, Yunfeng doesn’t know, and that “Yunfeng” doesn’t know either.

But being called the "little king" means he is definitely no ordinary person. However, he has already graduated and poses no threat to this campus singing competition.

However, what Xia Dachuan just said was both right and wrong.

First of all, high notes are indeed a threshold that screens out a large number of half-baked singers.

The vocal range is not only determined by innate conditions, but also a basic skill of breath use in scientific vocalization. Without strong breath support, high notes cannot be sung well. Many people who study vocal music practice breath day after day for years just to overcome the difficulty of high notes.

Of course, for people who are born with a higher key, singing high notes is effortless, but singing low notes requires strong breath support.

In other words, if you can't even sing the high notes, you are basically excluded from being a professional singer.

Second, you can sing high notes, but you don’t have to. It depends on the temperament of the work itself.

Third, for general singing competitions, singing high notes can indeed bring out the best in the audience, but the prerequisite is that your song is relatively complete.

In a word: high notes are quantifiable indicators, but being sincere is metaphysics.

The body Yunfeng obtained has a good voice and is naturally of a higher key.

But he is just a beginner in singing, and he is not yet proficient in breath control and application of techniques. There is a high probability that he will have problems when singing high notes, so it is better to be safe, since it is just a preliminary round anyway.

Yunfeng half-jokingly said, "I want to move the judges with my deep affection."

Xia Dachuan leaned his head on his shoulder, blinked his eyes and sang: "I can no longer bear your deep affection..."

"Fuck you!" Yunfeng felt sick and kicked him back, cursing, "You damn gay."

Xia Dachuan rubbed the place where he was kicked, then pinched his fingers and said innocently, "Humph, you are a heartless guy."

Yunfeng had black lines on his head.

Xiao Tianpeng laughed happily: "Dachuan, you chose the wrong school. You should go to the Magic City Drama Academy."

"What a pity, what a pity." Yunfeng sighed, "The entertainment industry has lost a first-class actor who plays the role of 'father-in-law'."

"Go, go, go." Xia Dachuan said seriously: "Play is play, joke is joke, don't make fun of gender."

Yunfeng and Xiao Tianpeng looked at each other and laughed: "Hahahaha..."

College life can be boring but also colorful. It depends on how you treat it.

With several interesting roommates, it’s impossible to be bored during four years of college life.

It was getting late, and if they continued practicing singing, even if Xia Dachuan and Xiao Tianpeng didn't mind, it would disturb the people in other dormitories.

Yunfeng put on his headphones again and listened to "Lonely Years" several times before getting ready to go to bed.

As soon as I lay down on the bed, the text message ringtone rang.

On the blue planet, there are no various advertisements and harassing text messages like on Earth.

"Who could it be, texting me so late at night?"

Yunfeng picked up his phone and saw that it was a message from the bank saying that 1800 yuan had just arrived in his account.

"Today is the 1st, and the Panda Chinese website's publishing fee is due on the 5th. The timing is wrong. Besides, the rewards for Zhu Xian last month can't be this low."

When Yunfeng was wondering where the money came from, another text message arrived.

The first thing he saw was that the person who sent the message had the note "Mom". Now he understood that the money should be this month's living expenses.

Click on the text message.

"Xiaofeng, I have transferred your living expenses. I was supposed to transfer it yesterday, but your father and I went to the city to buy food. We came back too late and forgot about it. Defa told us about your going to the Magic City Conservatory of Music. Your father and I are not well educated and don't understand the affairs of young people like you. We never forced you to make any choices since you were young. Since you are going, study hard. Your father and I will always support you."

Yunfeng was stunned for a long time, many complicated emotions surged in his heart. He felt very uncomfortable, suffocated, and even wanted to cry.

The memories and emotions of the two Yunfengs are intertwined, making it difficult to explain, sort out, or separate them.

Is this... what it feels like to have family?

Yunfeng hesitated for a long time with his phone in hand, and finally replied with a text message: "Mom, I'm fine. Your son can shine wherever he goes. I found a part-time job and will receive a salary starting next month. You don't need to give me living expenses anymore."
