Debuted right after graduating from high school

Chapter 23 This one is definitely a sure win...

After all, it is just a singing competition at the secondary school level in the Yau Tsim Mong area.

There's nothing much to say about the audition session. As long as you have some unique features and don't sing too badly, you can be allowed into the inner ring.

The previous registration process was extremely loose, and many unqualified people sneaked in. They came to participate just because they were thick-skinned. They just tried their luck with the idea of ​​earning prize money. The important thing was to participate, and they would smile even if they were eliminated.

After the audition stage, on average one out of every five contestants will advance to the second round.

Today is Saturday, and most of the audience who came to join in the fun gathered in the inner field. Even Chen Yisen's fans came, holding posters and homemade signs and shouting.

A girl shouted frantically - "Yi Sen! I like you so much!!"

There was also a young man shouting - "Every time I break up, I will listen to your songs! Yisen! Give me an autograph!! I bought your new album!!!"

"."

The second round of official competition had not yet begun, and one or two thousand students gathered in the stadium, making such a loud noise that it sounded like tens of thousands of ducks quacking non-stop.

Compared with Eason Chan, the veteran king of Hong Kong music scene, Lam Tsz-cheung, is just an ordinary person. His popularity among young students is only so-so, and his fans back then have already grown old.

For example, many teachers at the scene were very excited to see Lin Zixiang.

Even though he is not very popular among students, he has a big name like "A Real Man" and "A Man Should Be Self-reliant".

The original singer of "I Need You Every Minute" that Fan Wumian sang at home before was actually him, but the version covered by Taizi Ji in later generations is more famous.

Lam Tsz-cheung has a huge influence on the Hong Kong music scene. If one were to select the top ten legendary singers in Hong Kong, his name would be almost unavoidable. Once he opens his mouth, no one can rival him.

Even Eason Chen showed special respect when he occasionally spoke to Boss Lin.

At this moment.

Mak Shu Lai's father Mak Kee Shing came on stage and shook hands enthusiastically with King Records representative Yau Wenshan, as well as Eason Chan and Lam Tsai Cheung.

Boss Maggie has been in the business world for many years and is very familiar with the ways of the world. He said with a smile on his face:

“Thank you all for coming and supporting us!”

"My disappointing son will also be on stage later, so please take good care of him. Without mentioning anything else, my son Mai Shuli is a pretty good singer."

"He has always admired Brother Lin. Why don't I wait for me to prepare the apprenticeship gift and then take you as my master, Brother Lin? Hahaha!"

Boss Maggie called him "brother".

Lam Tsz-cheung didn't think there was anything wrong at all, as Boss Mai was indeed older.

And after he gradually faded out of fashion and retreated to the second line, he did teach people to sing, so he only replied:

"Oh? Then I need to listen carefully later. If he is a good candidate worth cultivating, it shouldn't be a problem to accept him."

Among Lin’s students are even Andy Lau and “brother” Zhang Guorong, so you can imagine his influence.

Qiu Wenshan, the representative of King Records, smiled and continued:

"To be honest, I have decided to produce an album for Mr. Mai's eldest son, and I am currently looking for suitable new songs."

"Mr. Mai is very wealthy and generous. He specially invited two songs from top composer Chen Huiyang. Songs like Yisen's "King of Karaoke" and Miss Yang's "Girl's Prayer" were both written by Mr. Chen."

"I've heard Master Mai sing, and he also trained at our King Records for two months during the summer vacation. I think in a small singing competition like today, it's hard to find someone better than Master Mai."

The "expert" who helped boss Mak Ji Shing to come up with ideas and organize today's open singing competition, and who also suggested that Mak Shu Lai become Lam Tsz-cheung's apprentice, was actually Ms. Yau Man-shan of King Records.

no way.

The money offered was too much, and it was really hard to refuse. Boss Mak Chi Shing was indeed wealthy, and in his opinion, if he could spend a few million Hong Kong dollars to make his son Mak Shu Lai a singing star, it would be worth it even if it was just to gain face in front of relatives and friends.

Seeing them flattering each other, Chen Yisen stood by and just smiled, with no intention of speaking.

After all, he and Boss Mai are in two different circles, and he was called over today by Qiu Wenshan to show his support.

I thought I was really hosting this middle school singing competition, but when I found out that Boss Mai kept talking about his son, I immediately realized that the whole thing was not that simple. I thought that I might become a background board or stepping stone for the rich young man to become famous.

Eason Chan didn't really like this kind of thing, but he was still signed to King Records, so he didn't want to be too obvious and embarrass someone. It was better to listen more and talk less, get through the formalities as quickly as possible, and go play football with his friends in the afternoon.

After communicating with the three judges, he also helped his son get the opportunity to become Lam Tsz-cheung's apprentice.

Boss Mai glanced at Mai Shuli who was surrounded by several reporters and thought:

“Even though I spent so much money, this is definitely a sure win.”

Different from Mai Shuli.

There was no one around Fan Wumian. He was sitting on a chair waiting for the second round to start, with his head down tuning his guitar.

He also has "fans".

At some point, Youpia, Mantis, Bird King, and Meat Dish, the four bad friends, had all gathered around Zhuang Muxi.

Being teased by them as "little sister-in-law", which was different from "sister-in-law" when they called Zuo the school beauty, the embarrassment on Zhuang Muxi's face was visible to the naked eye, but she felt a little secretly happy in her heart for some reason, and it was hard for her to feel angry about it.

However, her best friend Xu Xin was standing up for her friend and scolding a pervert named Fan for daring to have his eyes on the pot while having his share.

At this moment.

Seeing Fan Wumian finally looking up, his friend shouted in a hoarse voice:

"Fan Wumian from Trinity College! Big brother, you are the best! When you earn the bonus, you must take me to eat a super-sized beef offal pot!!!"

Fan Wumian saw it and turned his head away calmly.

I really don't want to pay any attention to those four weirdos holding up the banner that reads "Fan Wumian is so awesome!" What's even more speechless is that I'm actually their "sworn brother."

When their eyes met Zhuang Muxi's, they both smiled at the same time.

This fair and tender girl from Taiwan waved her hand and gave him a thumbs-up, encouraging him to cheer up.

Youpiao's shouting was so loud and the banner on the sidelines that read "Fan Wumian is so great!" was so eye-catching that it was difficult for Mai Shuli to ignore it.

Every time Mai Shuli thought about how Zuo Ziyan had taken the initiative to look for Fan Wumian, he became furious and felt as sad as if his future daughter-in-law was having an affair with a man.

Feeling really aggrieved, Master Mai thought about it for a while and came up with a good idea to get back at his wits' end.

Just do it.

Mai Shuli couldn't wait to find his father's assistant and asked him to place him in the position ahead of contestant No. 66 Fan Wumian no matter what.

After making the arrangements, he felt that he was truly a genius.

By the time I finish singing my song, Mingzhu will be in front of me, which will make Fan Wumian look dull and embarrassed, and he will lose face in front of Zuo Ziyan.

There is harm only when there is comparison.

Just thinking about it made Mai Shuli feel very happy.

With the pleasure of "revenge on the spot", a smile slowly appeared on Mai Dashao's face. He couldn't wait to let Fan Wumian see what a real professional singer is.
