Honkai Impact 3rd: Join Anti-Entropy at the start and dominate the entertainment industry.

"Sing if you want, just don't let me hear it."

"Yay!" Rosalia cheered, nudging Lilia beside her. "Lilia, let's go back and start rehearsing right away! The new idol competition is about to begin, and this time I'm determined to debut as an idol!"

At that moment, Raiden Ryoma heard the commotion and came out, immediately spotting Rosalia and Lilia.

Upon seeing these two, Raiden Ryoma immediately felt a headache coming on, because whenever these two appeared together, they would always cause quite a commotion.

It always feels like a troublesome manufacturing machine.

"Lilia! Rosalia! Why are you bothering Little White?"

The two girls' expressions changed when they saw it was Raiden Ryoma: "Ah! It's alright! Goodbye, Teacher Qu Yin!"

Bai Qianqu couldn't help but laugh as she watched the two run away in a flash.

These two guys are always so energetic.

Thunder Dragon immediately stepped forward and said, "Little White, don't worry about them, just focus on your own things. By the way, Professor Planck is back recently, why don't you go and visit her when you have time? She's been wanting to see you."

"Oh well."

Upon hearing that Planck had returned, Bai Qianqu did not forget that the two had previously agreed in the group chat to discuss music together.

Bai Qianqu was quite curious about Planck. He had already met Walter, one of the two most famous composers of Anti-Entropy, and it was time to meet the other.

Then, Raiden Ryoma chuckled and continued.

"Your new song 'Sorrow' will be released at noon today. Please pay attention to it."

Bai Qianqu nodded to indicate that she understood.

This song was originally supposed to be released on the 1st, but it was postponed to the 2nd for some reasons.

However, no one was in a hurry, because the delayed release of Qu Yin's song was not a problem.

Because he seems to enjoy playing this "come-from-behind" tactic.

Meanwhile, on Yingmei's side...

She was sitting upright on the sofa, her face full of nervousness.

The reason is that the woman opposite her is none other than Max Planck, one of the signature composers of Anti-Entropy.

At that moment, Planck was drinking tea. She noticed Yingmei's unease and couldn't help but laugh, "Don't be so nervous. I just got back and came to see you."

"Ah, yes, I'm not nervous."

Although she said that, how could Yingmei possibly remain calm?

That's Planck!

As one of the top S-class composers, Poulenc can be considered a semi-divine composer. She is highly regarded in the industry, especially in folk songs, where almost no one can compare to her.

It's almost a certainty that she'll become a music icon; it's just a matter of time.

Chapter 191 The Rusty Butcher Knife (Bonus Chapter 4/30)

The highest-ranking composer Yingmei had ever met before was Bai Qianqu; she had never dealt with someone of such high status.

At this moment, she missed Bai Qianqu a little. After all, although Bai Qianqu didn't talk much, she was very easy to get along with.

In front of Teacher Quyin, Yingmei can let go of her true self and not hide her nature. That feeling of freedom is what Yingmei likes the most.

After all, she is Teacher Qu Yin's favorite child.

Planck looked at Yingmei and liked her more and more.

She mainly liked Yingmei's voice.

She had heard Yingmei's song "Keep Walking in the Rain," and her penetrating voice left a lasting impression.

Planck liked it the first time he heard it, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed to sing Yingmei's song for the Spring Festival Gala so readily.

Of course, she liked Yingmei's voice, but she was even more interested in the song's creator, Qu Yin.

Recalling their brief chat in the group chat, Planck became very curious about him.

At that time, Qu Yin was just starting out and didn't have much of a reputation in the industry, but when facing me, she actually expressed her desire to communicate with me.

Planck commented on Qu Yin at the time: "He's an interesting person."

Later, Qu Yin won many battles and achieved many brilliant results. He even shone in the Battle of the Little Gods and the New Singer Competition, which made Planck even more interested in him.

This time when she came back, besides writing songs for Yingmei, she also wanted to meet this up-and-coming genius composer.

Planck then said with a smile, "But I heard that Qu Yin also had the idea of ​​writing a song for you for the Spring Festival Gala?"

"Uh..." Yingmei was speechless for a moment, and showed an embarrassed expression. "Yes, yes, but at that time I didn't know that you would be in charge of my songs, so I went to Teacher Quyin to ask for songs."

She clasped her hands together and sincerely apologized: "I'm sorry, Professor Planck. I acted on my own initiative and caused trouble for you and Professor Quyin!"

Planck smiled and didn't seem to care; she was more interested in the music.

"He agreed to it back then? So, was the song written yet?"

Yingmei scratched her head: "I did agree, but I found out very quickly that you were going to take over, so I wasn't sure if the music teacher had finished writing it. But he said there was indeed a song for me, and that I should find an opportunity to sing it next year."

"Oh?" Planck became interested. "That's a pleasant surprise. Why don't we go visit Qu Yin and see how his new song is coming along? He also made an appointment with me to have a good discussion about music."

Yingmei was dumbfounded, but she couldn't refuse, so she said, "I'll ask Teacher Quyin."

“Of course, go ahead and ask.” Planck nodded and picked up his teacup again to drink his tea.

Soon, Bai Qianqu received a call from Yingmei.

Bai Qianqu didn't care about Planck's request; they would have to meet eventually anyway, so it didn't matter whether they met sooner or later.

Moreover, it's not a bad thing to let Yingmei familiarize herself with the songs first.

“Okay, bring her straight to the recording studio. I’ve almost finished writing this song, so you can come and practice with her.”

Soon, the three met at the recording studio.

Bai Qianqu was also taken aback when she saw the young and beautiful woman with long, emerald-green hair in front of her.

He had thought that Planck, who could become a half-step god, would be at least around the same age as Walter, but at this moment, Planck looked like she was only in her twenties. He wondered if she was well-maintained, because time had not left any marks on her face.

It was as if the cruel hand of time had rusted before her.

Planck was also observing Bai Qianqu, whom she had been looking forward to for a long time.

Because Qu Yin had never revealed his identity, many people didn't even know his gender, let alone what he looked like.

Planck had previously mentally simulated the image of the melody, but seeing it in person now was very different from her simulation.

how to say?

I thought he was a very sharp child, but now he seems quite reserved and doesn't have that sharp edge.

The phrase "Thinking of a gentleman, whose gentleness is like jade" describes this kind of person, doesn't it?

Planck extended her hand to Bai Qianqu in greeting: "Hello, my name is Emma Planck."

"Hello, my name is Bai Qianqu, and my stage name is Quyin."

After exchanging greetings, Planck looked Bai Qianqu up and down, a smile playing on his lips.

"Everyone outside is saying that Qu Yin is a beautiful girl. It seems that the rumors are half true. Although she is not a girl, she is indeed quite beautiful."

Bai Qianqu was speechless for a moment. Using the word "beautiful" to describe a boy, while not entirely wrong, still felt a bit strange.

"I'm a bit older than you, so I'll take advantage of that and call you Little Chiku. You won't mind, will you?"

Bai Qianqu's lips twitched. The nickname "Little Qianqu" was originally given to her by Ai Li, and it always felt a bit awkward when other people called her that.

However, he didn't say anything, he just nodded.

"As long as you're happy."

"Alright, enough joking around." Planck changed the subject, smiling as he said, "I heard the new song you prepared for Ying is finished. I'm quite interested, so I'd like to come and listen in. Is that alright?"

Bai Qianqu nodded again: "Of course, it's an honor for us to have Professor Planck come to observe and provide guidance."

"Hehe, you have such a sweet tongue. It seems that Xiao Qianqu is quite confident about this song. I think this song was originally prepared for the Spring Festival Gala, right?"

Bai Qianqu did not hide anything about this: "Yes, this was prepared for the local Spring Festival Gala, but since Professor Planck came, this song was moved to next year."

Yingmei, who was listening nearby, broke out in a cold sweat.

Why is Teacher Qu Yin so honest?

What does this say?

What do you mean by "Professor Planck came and the song was removed"?

Is this a complaint that Professor Planck stole his job?

However, Planck clearly didn't think much of it, and she covered her mouth and laughed twice more.

"To be honest, although the company asked me to write a song for Ying to sing on the Spring Festival Gala, I haven't made any progress yet. I do have a few songs in the pipeline, but they don't seem to suit Ying's voice very well, so I'm still struggling with it."

Bai Qianqu continued Planck's words, saying, "Ying's voice is penetrating and sounds very powerful, so I think she is very suitable for singing some more emotional songs."

Planck fell into thought: "A more emotional song."

She then gave a wry smile and shook her head: "My repertoire consists mostly of rather somber songs, which don't seem to suit her very well. Do I really have to rewrite one? I was hoping to take a shortcut, but it looks like that's not an option now."

Chapter 192 Terrifying Melodies (Bonus Chapter 5/30!)

Bai Qianqu declined to comment on Planck's words.

The creative speed of S-level composers is beyond imagination; it can be said that as long as they have inspiration, songs come to them effortlessly.

Some shows even feature segments where composers write lyrics and perform songs on the spot, and top composers can indeed create a song in just one hour.

Putting the quality aside, at least they can actually write a song!

Moreover, there is still more than a month left, which is more than enough time for a top composer like Poulenc.

After venting his frustrations, Planck sat down on the sofa next to him with a smile.

"I'll just sit here. Xiao Qianqu, just pretend I don't exist. Do what you need to do."

Bai Qianqu nodded and said to Yingmei, who was still in a daze, "The lyrics and melody are on paper. Take a look first. As usual, we'll start in an hour."

Yingmei then came to her senses, suppressing her unease, and picked up the paper Bai Qianqu handed her to read.

"Aurora? That's an interesting name. If I remember correctly, Aurora is the Roman goddess of dawn and daylight, right?"
