Chapter 125 Choosing a Theme by Drawing Lots
The morning sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains and fell on Luo Li's face. She slowly opened her eyes. A new day had begun. Today was the day for recording the program "I Am a Composer".
She stretched, quickly got up, washed up briefly, and then sat down at her dressing table to carefully put on her makeup.
As she carefully selected her clothes, she thought to herself, "Today is the first day of the show's recording, so I must make a good impression on the audience."
She chose a simple yet stylish white dress, paired with a pair of delicate high heels, making her look even more fresh and refined.
When Luo Li arrived at Kyoto TV Station, a large crowd had already gathered at the entrance, including staff, fans, and other contestants.
She took a deep breath and stepped into the television station. The interior was luxuriously decorated, brightly lit, and the spacious lobby was filled with various flowers and green plants, making it feel exceptionally comfortable.
Led by the staff, Luo Li arrived at the recording studio specially prepared for this program.
Luo Li was the third composer to arrive, and her temporary assistant, Li Chu, was already waiting at the entrance of the recording studio.
Li Chu was tall and handsome, with a bright smile on his face. When he saw Luo Li, he greeted her warmly and said, "Hello, Teacher Luo Li, I'm Li Chu. I'm very happy to be your temporary assistant."
Luo Li smiled and replied, "Hello, Li Chu, I'm also very happy to be recording the show with you. I heard your show is very popular."
Li Chu scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and said, "Haha, it's all thanks to everyone's support. I still have a lot to improve on." The two chatted as they walked into the recording studio.
Inside the recording studio, staff were busy preparing various equipment, and the stage lights and sound system were undergoing final adjustments.
Luo Li and Li Chu found a place to sit down, and Li Chu began to explain some precautions and procedures for recording the program to Luo Li.
As time went on, the other seven composers also arrived at the recording studio one after another.
Finally, the host, Shen Yan, stood on the stage. She was wearing a gorgeous evening gown and had a confident smile on her face. She said, "Welcome everyone to the live broadcast of 'I Am a Composer'." The audience immediately burst into enthusiastic applause and cheers.
"Now, please welcome our eight composers, including our diamond composer Yunran."
As soon as Shen Yan finished speaking, forty-year-old Yun Ran gracefully walked onto the stage, lifting her skirt. She smiled and waved to all the audience members, saying, "Hello everyone, I am very happy to be on the stage of 'I Am a Composer'. I hope to bring you more excellent works."
“Diamond composer Liu Xiang.” After Shen Yan finished speaking, Brother Liu Xiang walked steadily onto the stage. He looked to be close to fifty years old, but he was in good spirits. He smiled and greeted everyone: “Haha, it’s been a long time, friends. I’m so happy to see you all again today.”
"Next up is Luo Li, the youngest platinum-level composer!" Shen Yan's voice was exceptionally loud. It turned out that after four months of accumulation, Luo Li had already composed and released as many as 24 songs.
"Goodbye", "Parting Blossoms", "Spring Is Not Too Late (Patriotic Version)" and "Thank You" have all been downloaded over 100 million times. There are as many as 22 songs with over 30 million downloads, but only 18 songs have over 50 million downloads. Luo Li is now the youngest platinum composer.
Luo Li stood up, a confident smile on her face, and walked onto the stage. The audience below couldn't help but gasp in amazement at how young and beautiful Luo Li was.
Luo Li waved to the audience and said, "Hello everyone, I am Luo Li. It is an honor to be here on 'I Am a Composer.' I hope you will like my songs."
"Next up is our platinum composer, the handsome Su Yi." The 38-year-old Su Yi walked onto the stage with a dashing air. He blew a kiss to everyone and joked, "Haha, hello everyone, I'm Su Yi. I hope my good looks can bring you a good mood."
"The fifth is our gold medal composer Han Hong, the sixth is our gold medal composer Fang Yue, the seventh is our gold medal composer Su Xiaoxiao, and the eighth is our gold medal composer Wang Yang." Shen Yan introduced the other composers one by one, and they all went on stage to greet the audience.
After introducing the eight composers, Shen Yan focused intently and began explaining the rules in a calm and clear tone: "Next, I'll talk about the rules for our first episode. This episode has four themes: family, friendship, love, and patriotism."
She paused briefly, scanning the entire audience to make sure every member of the audience and the composer was listening attentively.
"In a moment, the eight composers will need to come up on stage one by one to draw lots. Two people who draw the same theme will automatically be paired up for a wonderful head-to-head competition."
As Shen Yan spoke, he gestured with his hands in the air to demonstrate the grouping action so that everyone could understand it more intuitively.
"In our waiting area, there are eight outstanding singers. They will choose from eight composers to form teams for songwriting and performance. As for the results of the competition, the winning team will have the right to choose first and decide whether to continue working with the original team in the next episode; while the singers of the losing team will unfortunately be eliminated directly. As for the composers, if they fail in two consecutive episodes, they will have to leave this stage. However, please note that no composers will be eliminated in this episode."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Yan turned to the side, elegantly raised her arm, and gestured to the side of the stage, indicating to the staff to bring the lottery box onto the stage.
At this moment, all eyes were focused on the lottery box that was about to be brought onto the stage. Everyone was filled with tension and anticipation, preparing to welcome the next group lottery.
The composers in the audience listened attentively, each secretly wondering what theme they would draw.
"Alright, now please come up on stage one by one to draw lots," Shen Yan said with a smile.
Yun Ran was the first to go on stage. She gracefully reached into the lottery box, pulled out a slip of paper, opened it, smiled, and said, "Haha, I drew 'love'." Liu Xiang was the second to go on stage; he drew 'family'.
When it was Luo Li's turn, she took a deep breath, walked onto the stage, reached into the lottery box, and after feeling around for a while, finally pulled out a slip of paper.
She opened the slip of paper and her face lit up with surprise. She exclaimed, "Wow, I drew 'Friendship'!" The audience below the stage burst into applause and cheers.
The other composers also went on stage one after another to draw lots. The final groupings were as follows: Yun Ran and Su Yi were in one group, with the theme of love; Liu Xiang and Han Hong were in one group, with the theme of family affection; Luo Li and Fang Yue were in one group, with the theme of friendship; and Su Xiaoxiao and Wang Yang were in one group, with the theme of patriotism.
