HCB Chapter 99, "Happy Sunday," aired.
Chapter 99, "Happy Sunday," aired.
The electric guitar riff begins, followed by a deep, magnetic voice.
How many times have I fallen on the road?
How many times have my wings been broken?
"I no longer feel lost."
"I want to transcend this ordinary, extravagant desire."
This song tells the story of a person who, after experiencing setbacks and a period of confusion, finally rediscovers their passion and longing for life.
Chen Chong softly recounted the hardships she had encountered. As she sang, she couldn't help but immerse herself in the story.
This song feels like it was tailor-made for me.
As the music grew more intense, Chen Chong vented her emotions.
I want a life in full bloom.
"Like flying in the vast sky"
......
The sound engineer surnamed Zhou originally wanted to pause the recording, but Ling Xia stopped him, saying it was good for him to vent.
After the first rendition of the song, Chen Chong's face was flushed and tears streamed down her face.
Chen Chong wiped away her tears and said apologetically to Ling Xia, who was listening to the song outside the recording studio, "I'm sorry, I got too excited just now."
Ling Xia extended her hand and made an OK sign, indicating that he was ready to start again.
"...You were too emotional just now..."
"Okay, I'll try again."
"I think this part could be a little more perfect..."
"Hmm, I'm trying to get a feel for it."
The recording studio was filled with conversations and singing between Ling Xia and Chen Chong.
The recording was finally completed at 5:00 PM.
[Congratulations, host, on completing the mission! The context and emotion were exceptionally perfect. As a special reward, you are given a skill treasure chest.]
"There's also a treasure chest. Why didn't you mention it before?" Ling Xia questioned the system.
"You will only get the treasure chest when you trigger a specific event."
"So there are still unknown features waiting for me to develop."
【...】
"Open the treasure chest"—I want to see what rare skills I can get.
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Cantonese Proficiency Skill Book.]
This really is a skill book.
Lingxia clicks to use.
A large amount of Cantonese, and some Cantonese, just appeared in Lingxia's mind.
This skill book is awesome!
While Ling Xia was working on her Cantonese, Joan Chen came out of the recording studio and gave her a warm hug.
The song task was completed today, and all four of them breathed a sigh of relief. Lingxia handed the newly recorded song to her boss, Huaqiang, because her task was finished.
Hua Qiang is a foreigner, but he speaks fluent Mandarin.
While talking to him about work, I unexpectedly learned some news.
They're currently soliciting movie theme songs from all companies in Hong Kong.
Therefore, many companies have used songwriters, but the difficulty lies in the additional condition that the songs must be sung in Cantonese.
If any entertainment company can really establish a connection with Hong Kong, it will definitely receive assistance if it wants to develop its business there.
Ling Xia perked up immediately upon hearing this. It was a Cantonese song! She had just become fluent in Cantonese and immediately started singing one.
Hua Qiang handed the prepared materials directly to Ling Xia, since she was currently the only person in the company with the qualifications of Qu Die.
Ling Xia looked through the documents.
The movie is called "Who is the Spy".
It's roughly about a trainee police officer who is ordered by his superior to infiltrate a gang as an undercover cop, while the gang also selects a very smart young man to infiltrate the police force.
Eight years later, the two young men lived up to expectations and successfully became the right-hand men of important figures.
A drug deal goes wrong, information is leaked, and both sides' operations end in failure. It also reveals to both sides that there is an undercover agent among their own people. What will be the final fate of these two people with such similar fates?
The end credits song should be a Cantonese song with lyrics that express loyalty, helplessness, and loneliness.
Firstly, the Cantonese language itself is enough to deter many people, and secondly, the requirements are actually quite difficult.
Ling Xia's heart skipped a beat; wasn't this very similar to the movie Infernal Affairs on Earth?
[The host has been detected to need the song "Infernal Affairs". Task issued.]
Please submit a poem, lyric, or sentence to the China Youth Network online within one month to awaken the national self-confidence of the Chinese people.
The higher the ranking, the richer the reward.
Basic reward song: "Infernal Affairs"
Ling Xia realized that this was a test of her memory of the texts she had memorized in school.
She needs a month to think things through.
Ling Xia told Hua Qiang, "I accept the offer, and I will do my best."
Looking at the confident Ling Xia, Hua Qiang encouraged her, "Just do your best and don't feel pressured."
Ling Xia, along with her agent Sister Zhao and assistant Tian Tian, got into the car to go to the film crew that same day.
......
The next day, when Ling Xia and her group arrived at the film set, they received a warm welcome because Ling Xia had brought back a lot of snacks.
While Ling Xia was filming on set, the show "Happy Sunday" that she had recorded also premiered.
Although the TV series "Strategies of the Warring States" has finished airing, its popularity remains undiminished, and many TV stations have bought the rebroadcast rights.
When the "Happy Sunday" program announced that the cast of the TV series "The Warring States" would be performing, many netizens were very enthusiastic. In previous episodes, the audience was not complete, but now there were so many applicants that the studio could not accommodate so many people.
Although the male lead didn't show up, it didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the many fans and drama enthusiasts.
Ji Qingtian is a big fan of the TV series "The Strategy of the Warring States". After watching it once, she went to another channel to watch it a second time.
In the second part, she discovered some details that she hadn't noticed before.
She has been waiting for the show to air for over half a month.
She waited in front of the TV early that evening. When her father asked to check the weather forecast, she replied, "I can use my phone."
When the main actors from the Warring States Policy appeared on the screen, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
The male lead, Lu Yingdi, didn't attend the performance of "Strategies of the Warring States," but the female lead and other main and supporting actors did. It showed a lot of sincerity.
After all, fans know that Lu Yingdi doesn't really like appearing on variety shows.
This episode was hilarious.
The guests all had excellent comedic timing and were able to catch the jokes thrown out by the host.
To Ji Qingtian's surprise, Ling Xia's performance was so funny that it made her laugh until she cried.
She wasn't a fan of Ling Xia, but she really liked the character Ni Chang.
In the show, Qin Shiyi, as the team leader, led a three-person team with Ling Xia and Kong Lingyu, which brought the competition to a climax.
Kong Lingyu and Lingxia are such a funny pair of clowns that Ji Qingtian couldn't help but go online to check the comments from netizens to see if they were trending on social media.
Sure enough, that's what netizens were thinking; the trending topic on Weibo was all of Qin Shiyi's team.
Qin Shiyi's fans were also surprised to find that their idol could be so funny; it was clear that she was having a lot of fun.
