Chapter 90 Strength
Kumoi Akatsuki looked excited: "Then what song is suitable for me to sing?"
As the president of the Philharmonic Club, Akira Kumoi actually loves to sing. Unfortunately, God has given him such a voice. Whenever he opens his mouth, it is a kind of torture to himself and others.
Originally, he wanted to give up and quietly become a guitarist, but Luo Quan told him that he could still be saved. How could this make him overjoyed.
Luo Quan replied seriously: "I have to wait until I go back to study this, but I can tell you clearly that your voice is a rare good voice."
There are so many types of music, and it’s not just finger-twirling love songs that can be popular. Even Kumoi Akira’s gong-breaking voice can conquer the audience.
After receiving a clear answer, Kumoi Akira felt much happier, and the topic finally returned to the topic.
"Tell me the format of this Komaba Festival singing competition." Luo Quan found a seat and sat down casually. Wherever she went, the members of the Philharmonic Club followed her.
Kamiya Suzune took out her mobile phone and read from the script: "This competition lasts for one day. You will perform on stage once in the morning, noon and evening. After each performance, the audience can choose whether to vote for you, and the final ranking is obtained by three performances. The total number of votes will decide.”
Luoquan Yixi: "It sounds like we have a huge advantage. After all, the competition venue is at the University of Tokyo."
Kamiya Suzune shook her head: "That's not the case. For the sake of fairness in this singing competition, only 1,000 voting quotas are allocated to each university. Students can receive their votes with their student ID cards. Once the quota reaches the upper limit, they will no longer be distributed."
Luo Quan nodded: "You can only judge based on your ability."
Kumoi Akira sighed: "If this is really the case, then we are not actually afraid."
"how do I say this?"
Kumoi Akira explained: "Probably the University of Tokyo has been number one in Japan for too long, and I don't know if students from other universities are jealous or something, so they agreed on Twitter that they must beat us this time.
The student union presidents of several universities have already made arrangements to vote for the Kyoto University team in this music competition. This team is a band that has already debuted and already has a certain fan base. If we get these votes again, it is impossible for us to defeat them. "
Luo Quan frowned slightly: "Will the school just ignore it?"
Akira Kumoi shook his head: "What the student council president told us is that this is an exercise for us, either to crush our opponents with absolute strength and keep the University of Tokyo's reputation as Japan's No. 1 within the rules.
Or learn to be like adults, win over all the people you can win over, and defeat your opponents outside the rules.
In short, the school will never interfere this time, leaving us to our own devices. The president has already tried to find a way, but it seems that not many universities are willing to help us. "
"There is still such an operation. I can only say that he is worthy of being a senior executive of Japan's number one university. His ideas are different from ordinary people." Luo Quan sighed.
Kamiya Suzune clenched her fists: "But it will be different when you come. You are the goddess in the minds of us Japanese young people!"
When Luo Quan heard this, he covered his mouth and laughed: "Thank you, thank you. I can only say that my songs are more popular among young people."
Some club members shouted: "No way, my grandpa also likes your songs very much!"
Everyone laughed.
After laughing, Luo Quan said sternly: "No matter how many difficulties we may face in this competition, it will only happen in two months. We must do the right thing right now.
First thing, I want to see your level first. It's not that I don't trust you, I just want to know your strength. After all, we will be a team in the future. "
"It's simple. Each of us will give you a solo. I'm the president, so I'll do it first." Kumoi Akira said, picking up the guitar and strumming the strings with an indifferent expression, his movements free and easy. , but the melody that pops up is extremely beautiful.
Kumoi Akatsuki played "My All" by Luo Quan. Because she injured her hand when making this song, she used a computer-simulated guitar sound. If she played it purely by hand, the melody would be more or less the same. There will be some changes in tone.
However, this did not happen to Kumoi Akira. The melody and tone were almost the same as those produced by a computer!
Although Luo Quan's guitar skills are not very high, her musical literacy is definitely not bad, and she will never make mistakes in terms of tone and melody.
After Kumoi Akira finished playing, Luo Quan was the first to applaud: "It's incredible. I used a computer to create the accompaniment of this song, and you actually reproduced it completely by yourself. It's amazing!"
Natsuko Miyano said proudly: "The president was once the youngest tenth-level guitarist in Asia. In addition to ordinary guitars, he is very good at electric guitars, jazz guitars, and ukuleles!"
Luo Quan nodded and thought to himself: No wonder he can be the president, he really has two skills.
"It's my turn." Kamiya Suzune sat down next to a piano, placed her hands flat on the keys, and her body fell into stillness. Everything seemed to be frozen, quiet and peaceful.
Then, her hands began to jump wildly on the piano, and her body shook due to the violent shaking of her arms. Every light and heavy press of her slender fingers would play a string of long or urgent piano sounds, and these piano sounds When combined, it becomes extremely noisy, like a swarm of bees circling in everyone's ears.
With such a recognizable melody, Luo Quan knew what Kamiya Suzune was playing almost immediately.
It is the famous song "Flight of the Bumblebee" by Russian composer Nikolai Nimsky Korsakov. Because this piece has a very fast melody, many pianists and violinists like to use this piece to show off their performance. Technique is a veritable show of skill.
Of course, Kamiya Suzune cannot be called a pianist at her level, but at her age, it is already quite rare.
After Kamiya Suzune finished, it was Miyano Natsuko's turn to play the violin again. She chose the same song as Kamiya Suzune, which was also "Flight of the Bumblebee", and her performance was still amazing.
Luo Quan really didn't expect that a small music club would be so hidden, and see three talented people showing off like this in a row. She didn't know if Amuro Yuu could give her the same surprise in the end.
However, when Yu Amuro took his seat and picked up the drumsticks, his performance was interrupted by the noise coming from the door.
Everyone turned to look, and it turned out that the karate club members had come in. These club members were all boys, and they were all talking and laughing, and their voices were surprisingly loud.
"Are they usually this noisy?" Luo Quan asked in a low voice in Kamiya Suzune's ear.
Kamiya Suzune's expression was solemn: "When we start training later, it will only become more noisy."
It can be seen that everyone's expressions are not very good. It seems that something bad is going to happen when these members of the karate club come.
"Oh... isn't this the goddess of spring water? Why are you here?" A strong boy came over from the karate club.
He just glanced at the Philharmonic Club casually, and unexpectedly saw an unexpected figure.
"I can be considered a member of the Philharmonic Club now." Although Luo Quan didn't know this person, he still responded out of politeness.
The boy shook his head and sighed: "That's such a pity. It would be great if you could come to our club... However, your application to join the Philharmonic Club should not be approved so soon. Maybe you can change your mind. Woolen cloth?"
Kumoi Akira's expression changed: "Iwasaki Hideo, is there anyone like you who poaches people like you?"
Eiji Iwasaki spread his hands innocently: "Izumi has not actually joined the Philharmonic Club, so how can this be considered poaching? I just asked him to reconsider the club he joined. After all, our Karate Club also has many entertainment projects in private. of."
Luo Quan chuckled: "For example?"
Eiji Iwasaki thought there was something going on and said happily: "For example, going out on a yacht, surfing in Hawaii, skiing in Alaska, or even going to Las Vegas to play a few things. Our members have already done these things last year, and there will be more this year." What a new twist!”
"It sounds rich and high-end, but what should I do if I'm born a landlubber, afraid of the cold, hate gambling, and even hate traveling far away?"
Hearing Luo Quan deny all the entertainment he proposed, Iwasaki Hideshi knew what she meant no matter how stupid he was: "So is this considered a rejection?"
Luo Quan nodded: "In fact, I have not submitted an application to join the Philharmonic Club. I have been a member of the Linguistics Club from the beginning to the end, and I have no intention of quitting the club for the time being."
"That's it... that's such a pity..." Hideshi Iwasaki said softly. Although his expression was calm, the members of the karate club knew that this was a sign that he was about to get angry.
Keimiya Masaku stepped forward and held Iwasaki Hideshi's slightly shaking shoulders: "Eishi-kun, please don't disturb Luo Quan and the others. Let's play with ourselves."
Iwasaki Hideshi glanced at the grandson of the emperor and took a deep breath: "Well...since Masasaku-kun has spoken, I have to give him face, so be it."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the activity half of the karate club.
"Thanks for your help this time." Kumoi Akira nodded to Masasaku Keimiya in thanks.
Jing Gong Masaku showed an elegant smile: "It's just a little effort. Yingshi was scolded by his parents today and is in a bad mood. Don't be offended."
Miyano Natsuko looked sulky: "It's not just once or twice. When did you not take it out on us? If you have the ability to challenge the seniors of the judo club next door!"
"Keep your voice down." Kamiya Suzune tugged on her good sister's arm.
"That's it, you guys are busy." As Jing Gong Masakuo left, he secretly glanced at Luo Quan out of the corner of his eye.
Glad she didn't see him.
Sad that she wasn't looking at him.
