Chapter 175 Stepping on Them to Reach the Top
Hurrying to the studio, Su Yinian studied the prop 'Famous Song Detector' and opened the system backpack to use it. The first thing that came into view was a Klein blue virtual interface.
The overall picture is simple and elegant, with clear text layout and three required options at the top: 'Song Name', 'Performer', and 'Specific Occasion'.
Su Yinian first tested the original dark song 'DNA' and set the performance object to 'T-Fire'.
After entering the specific occasion as 'the second round of the third season of "Idol Glory"', the system detected the stage heat percentage as - 60%!
No way, just passed the passing line?
There is a 'Numerical Analysis' button behind the numerical judgment. Su Yinian clicked it and saw the analysis: The quality of the song is judged to be 90%, but in specific situations, compared with other participating groups, the overall evaluation is not competitive. It is recommended that this song be used in other specific situations.
It seems that this 60% rating is because the opponent is too strong?
Su Yinian thought for a moment and changed the specific occasion to "Idol 103's Formation Night Performance". The evaluation result this time was - 98%!
Numerical analysis: Don't hesitate, use it boldly! Among all the carrots, it is the most dazzling sugarcane! (It means that the performance quality is several levels higher than that of the opponent)
……
It’s really because of the opponent!
Su Yinian was speechless for a moment.
In order to find out the opponent's strengths, we imported two songs, "Shut up" and "Baby, give me more", for testing. The numerical judgments of these two songs were 73% and 86% respectively, and the reasons shown were consistent with the previous judgment of 60% for "DNA".
Su Yinian leaned back on the chair, feeling a little headache.
The lineup of opponents this time cannot be underestimated. To what extent of original songs must be created to increase the popularity percentage to over 90%?
There were three knocks on the door.
Su Yinian turned his head and looked back, and saw Lu Jingyan pushing the door open. He was holding a bag of snacks from the convenience store in his hand, and at a glance, he saw oden, fried chicken legs, grilled sausages... The aroma of food gradually filled the studio.
"Why are you here? Don't you want to rest?"
As soon as Su Yinian saw the delicious food, he couldn't take his eyes away. Although he said caring words, his mind had already been hooked away by Lu Jingyan's hand.
He stared at Lu Jingyan as he carried the bag of snacks to the conference table, opened the bag, and took out the snacks one by one... Su Yinian licked his lips unconsciously, then restrained himself from looking away, but after a moment he couldn't help but look back... This cute little action was caught by Lu Jingyan's peripheral vision.
Lu Jingyan curved his thin lips, pretending not to notice her reaction, and kept his head down, busying himself.
"I'm here to supervise you. Are you going to stay up all night at the creative desk again? There are many things to deal with when you return to the 101 base tomorrow. You must stay alert tonight."
"I was passing by a convenience store and felt a little hungry. How about coming over to eat with me?"
Lu Jingyan said slowly: "I happened to buy a lot of your favorite food."
"How embarrassing."
Su Yinian put her hands on her knees, manually controlling her legs that were trying to stand up from the chair, and replied modestly: "You eat it, I won't."
"But I've been on a diet lately, and I accidentally bought too much and can't finish it."
Lu Jingyan showed a regretful expression, picked up the bag of oden, and shook it in his hand.
“It would be a waste to throw it away.”
Su Yinian heard this and quickly dodged over. In the blink of an eye, he stood beside Lu Jingyan and said seriously, "Don't throw it away! It's shameful to waste it. I'll solve your problem!"
Lu Jingyan couldn't help laughing.
"Okay."
"I'll only eat this, the rest is yours."
Lu Jingyan took out a string of curry fish balls from the oden paper cup and handed the full paper cup to Su Yinian.
Su Yinian took it doubtfully, looked up at the string of fish balls in his hand, then looked down at the full paper cup in his hand and the dazzling array of snacks on the table, puzzled.
"You eat so little, why did you buy so much?"
"Want to know?" Lu Jingyan smiled with his eyes curved, looking at Su Yinian's cheeks bulging with food, and changed the subject calmly.
"Then answer my question first, what are you doing in the studio?"
Su Yinian swallowed the lobster ball and said vaguely: "Looking for inspiration."
Turning around and staggering back to the creative table, Su Yinian placed the paper cup steadily on the table, turned on the computer, and found the video that Ji Mufeng shared in the group chat of six people and played it.
"Universe's debut stage always makes me feel very concerned. There is an invisible tacit understanding between the seven members, and each member is very recognizable when performing, just like... all members are the center."
"I took a quick look at all the hit songs that Universe has released since their debut. Each song has a different style, which shows that their team does not have a fixed style positioning, but the key is——"
Su Yinian paused and said slowly: "Universe's debut song at the Sz1 Entertainment Family Concert is a hit. The style of the song happens to be consistent with the style and positioning of the VIP boy group."
"I understand." Lu Jingyan rested one hand on the back of the chair behind Su Yinian.
Looking at the performance video playing on the screen, he narrowed his eyes and uttered a sigh. "What a bad temper, stepping on the seniors to get to the top."
"Since their debut, Universe has followed the principle of 'the strong are respected'. Now they have implemented their philosophy with real results, and the number of their supporters is extremely large."
Su Yinian groaned and thought, "So... we can't fight them head-on. If we want to dampen their spirit, we have to accumulate strength first, and then strike them in the finals and snatch the championship that they are determined to win..."
"I understand." Lu Jingyan nodded with interest and agreed: "We are the No. 1 men's band in Asia."
Su Yinian was choked by Lu Jingyan's straightforward ambition. After a moment of hesitation, he frankly agreed.
"...Okay, that's right, that's what I mean. We can copy their routines, take advantage of the popularity of the show, and step on them to get to the top!"
"I took a quick look at the predictions online about the songs that Universe will perform on the first stage of the second round of competition. The most speculated song is the title song of their new album, "You must do it," said Su Yinian.
"Then do you agree?" Lu Jingyan tilted his head, lowered his eyes to look at Su Yinian's calm and serious profile, and chuckled. "It seems that I don't agree."
“Given Universe’s willful style, I personally think it would be the dark and sexy dance song ‘Strawberry’.”
Su Yi-nian wrote lightly, "To defeat us in the field we are best at, don't you think this kind of provocation is similar to the despicable behavior they used to challenge us in the VCR?"
