All-rounder Artist-Chapter 758 - 723: Welcome to Qin Continent_1

A few days later!

Qin Continent, Beijing!

Bluelympics Organizing Committee!

Twenty-one leaders of the Bluelympics Organizing Committee were gathered in the same room, seriously discussing the major details of the Bluelympics opening ceremony.

When some important rules and regulations were set, Zhou Jianqi, the person in charge of the Bluelympics, suddenly asked:

"How’s the collection of promotional songs going?"

"After we sent out the solicitation for the Bluelympic songs, the response within the industry was very intense. Many top musicians have joined in, including Huang Dongzheng, who we value the most, as well as some very famous maestros. We have already selected twenty songs, all of which sound excellent. It’s time for us to make the final decision by voting today."

Someone answered.

A middle-aged man wearing glasses in the room laughed:

"Why bother voting? We’ll surely choose the song composed by Huang Dongzheng this year. The quality of those maestros’ works are indeed top-notch, but when it comes to this type of song, no one does it better than Huang Dongzheng!"

"That’s true."

Someone on the side followed, "I took a special listen to Huang Dongzheng’s song before this meeting. It’s called ’Holy Fire’, and it fits our requirements perfectly. He indeed deserves his status for creating the promotional song for successive Bluelympics for three editions."

Everyone laughed.

Since the Bluelympics are only held every four years, Huang Dongzheng has composed promotional songs for the event thrice, an achievement that has spanned numerous years.

Some people even said:

Huang Dongzheng is the chosen one for the Bluelympics promotional song. At each Bluelympics, it’s Huang Dongzheng’s time to shine and outperform all other maestros.

Of course.

Saying that Huang Dongzheng’s song would be picked directly was just a joke. The due processes still need to be followed. The Bluelympics Organising Committee would never act irresponsibly in such matters.

Zhou Jianqi said:

"We’ve been in this meeting for half the day, it’s time to enjoy some pleasant music."

Everyone nodded.

Before playing the songs, the staff introduced the song information:

"The first song is called ’Come on, Bluelympics Athletes’, created by the maestro Mr. Xinxin."

Everyone remained silent.

The song began to play.

After listening to the first song, they nodded. Then, they whispered, exchanging opinions. They were generally satisfied.

The standard of the maestro was evident.

The song was very nice.

But something seemed to be lacking?

The discussion ended.

Zhou Jianqi signaled to play the next song.

The staff member nodded and continued to introduce the next song before playing it, "The second song is called ’Charming Qin Continent’, the creator is also a maestro…"

And so.

They had listened to twelve songs in sequence.

These songs were all good. With them having made it through from the large number of submissions, their quality was assured. However, none of them were yet to completely move everyone.

Until the thirteenth song!

When introducing this song, the staff’s voice seemed to change:

"This song is called ’Holy Fire’, created by Mr. Huang Dongzheng…"

There was a slight change in people’s expressions.

A few minutes later.

Smiles appeared at the corners of their mouths!

"Good!"

"This one’s good!"

"As expected, it has to be Huang Dongzheng!"

"Unless there’s a surprise, this edition’s promotional song will be ’Holy Fire’."

"Mmm."

"Huang Dongzheng is really good."

"It seems he’s set to compose the promotional song for the Bluelympics for four editions consecutively, for a whole ten-plus years. That’s not easy."

"It’s not worse than the promotional song from the last edition."

"Honestly, I think it’s not as good as the one from the last edition, but it’s certainly better than the other songs."

"The main thing is it feels more appropriate overall."

"He’s a musician who understands the spirit of the Bluelympics."

"If the lyrics of ’Holy Fire’ could highlight our city, Qin Continent, that would be even better."

"…"

The Bluelympics has a tradition of passing on the ’holy fire’. Huang Dongzheng’s choice of theme for his song is very fitting.

"Keep listening."

Zhou Jianqi spoke softly.

Even though they liked Huang Dongzheng’s song the most so far, they still had to finish listening to the remaining songs. Everyone agreed.

The fourteenth song...

The fifteenth song...

The sixteenth song...

The songs that followed didn’t impress them quite as much as ’Holy Fire’. They fell short here or there.

Zhou Jianqi frowned slightly.

He was basically satisfied with ’Holy Fire’, but being basically satisfied and fully satisfied were two different concepts.

He felt...

Huang Dongzheng’s song this year was slightly inferior to the ones he had created for the previous three Bluelympics.

He wasn’t a professional musician and so he couldn’t quite pinpoint where the issue was.

However, it was this unexplainable flaw that was irking him slightly. He hoped that there would be a song coming up that could really dazzle him.

However.

As the number of songs left to play began to dwindle, he still hadn’t heard anything better than "Holy Fire".

His irritation only grew.

At this point, the voice of a staff member resonated again, "Up next is the nineteenth song. The composer is... Xian Yu, and the song is called "Beijing Welcomes You".

"Xian Yu?"

Someone in the audience raised an eyebrow, "I know this young man, he’s an incredibly talented composer. It seems like he’s aiming for his twelfth consecutive season win."

"My daughter is a huge fan of his, even said something about helping Xian Yu top some chart. I, as an old man, don’t really know what all that means."

"Who’s this ’Chart’, and why are we hitting him?"

"I think I’ve heard of this too. You old-fashioned bunch, chart-topping is the act of supporting musicians to win a ranking in the seasonal chart. If I’m not mistaken, Xian Yu has already won six times in a row."

"No wonder he submitted a song."

A female director spoke up with a hint of regret.

"If he wants to achieve a seventh consecutive win, he needs his new song in July to surpass our Bluelympics promotional song in popularity. That’s practically impossible, so his only choice is to gamble on his song being chosen."

It’s not hard to guess Xian Yu’s intentions.

Everyone chuckles upon hearing this.

"Haha, this kid sure is determined."

"We can’t be blamed though, the Bluelympics is a major event currently, and this is the first time Qin Continent is hosting after waiting in queue for decades!"

"Too bad we have Huang Dongzheng here."

"If he could actually write a song better than "Holy Fire", that would be something. I quite like the title though."

"The title is indeed good, but it is all about the overall quality."

"Huang Dongzheng’s songs are always spectacular!"

"..."

Everyone seemed to have already assumed the song choice, they casually chatted among each other. Of course everyone hoped for a better song than Huang Dongzheng’s, but that just didn’t seem likely.

Zhou Jianqi quietly sighed.

So, are they going to choose Huang Dongzheng’s "Holy Fire" after all?

He was not quite ready to accept this!

There must be.....

Hmm?

Zhou Jianqi suddenly felt something!

Unbeknownst to him, the room was already filled with music and then a catchy tune was heard.

Instant silence fell in the room.

"Welcome another dawn, bringing fresh air,

The atmosphere changes but the mood remains, filled with the aroma of tea and friendship,

My home’s doors are always wide open, holding open arms for you,

An embrace builds an understanding, you’ll fall in love with this place,

No matter how near or far, you’re all guests here, there’s no need for formalities,

We made a pact to be together, we welcome you,

..."

The room fell silent, the only sound left was the continued singing.

Listening to this song, the Bluelympics directors who were previously engaged in casual chatter, were all stunned.

The next moment!

Everyone’s faces lit up, quickly exchanging looks of excitement as if they had discovered some priceless treasure!

Simultaneously!

Zhou Jianqi’s breath began to quicken, like a rush of exhilaration had surged through him—

Yes!

Finally!

This was the feeling!

This was what he was seeking!

This was the message that should be conveyed by the Bluelympics promotional song of Qin Continent!

This was the sensation caused when our brainwaves completely matched the song "Beijing Welcomes You"!

The room buzzed with excitement!

"Such a nice song!"

"This song feels so good to listen to!"

"It seems even better than "Holy Fire"!"

"Remove ’seems’, even though I really like Huang Dongzheng, I have to admit that this is simply better than "Holy Fire"!"

"Do we even need to vote?"

"Surely, it has to be this one!"

"The melody is good, the concept is excellent. Look at these lyrics, it really hits home. Isn’t this song tailor-made for our Qin Continent’s Beijing!"

"Beijing Welcomes You!"

"Qin Continent Welcomes You!"

"We can find some stars in Qin Continent to sing together, leveraging all the star power to help Xian Yu’s song achieve that...."

"Chart topping!"

Yes, chart topping!

We’ll top this chart first!
