Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1274: Chapter 1274: What Exactly Do You Want? [Part 3]

The moment the voice came out of the TV, Lu Xiaobu got angry: ”What kind of garbage is this?”

Lu’s father was taken aback: ”Is it that bad? I think it’s quite good!”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Dad, he’s completely singing blindly, okay? The pitch and all are fine, but it’s missing a lot of emotion! It’s lacking emotion!”

Lu’s father was a bit confused: ”Emotion?”

”Forget it, I’m going to find the show’s team, I’m going to be a mentor!” Lu Xiaobu immediately prepared to leave.

Lu’s father: ”You haven’t eaten yet.”

”Not eating.” Lu Xiaobu’s voice came from far away.

”This brat!” Lu’s father rolled his eyes and continued listening to the music while eating, thinking it sounded quite good.

Lu Xiaobu hurried all the way to the set of that Masked something-or-other show.

”Where’s the person in charge?” Lu Xiaobu walked right in.

”Hello, Young Master Lu, I am the person in charge of the show, Qin Shaowen. How can I help you?” Qin Shaowen’s attitude was extremely polite.

His show was actually inspired by Lu Xiaobu’s ”The Voice of Heavenly Dynasty”, so Lu Xiaobu was a predecessor to him, and he should show respect.

”I want to be a mentor.” Lu Xiaobu said directly.

”This...” Qin Shaowen was stunned.

Be a mentor?

What’s up with Lu Xiaobu? Why this all of a sudden?!

”Young Master Lu, it’s not that I don’t want to comply, but there are indeed many issues. First of all, we already have our mentors chosen! There are four in total, and it wouldn’t be good to replace any of them!” Qin Shaowen explained.

Lu Xiaobu: ”I’ll be the fifth. Just add a chair.”

Qin Shaowen: ”Adding a chair is doable, but all the contestants have basically already chosen their mentors.”

Lu Xiaobu: ”I recall there are still four who haven’t chosen?”

Qin Shaowen: ”Yes, according to the broadcast, they haven’t chosen, but as a predecessor, you know it’s all pre-recorded, so actually, they’ve already chosen!”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Re-record.”

Qin Shaowen: ”Even if it’s re-recorded, the contestants’ choices won’t change much! If your team ends up with no one...”

Lu Xiaobu: ”I’ll handle it.”

Qin Shaowen: ”And also...”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Too much nonsense! Three billion!”

”Alrighty! Young Master Lu, I’ll arrange the re-recording immediately! Please wait a moment!”

Qin Shaowen said decisively.

Who dares to say no, he will confront them!

Indeed, under the power of money, there are no difficulties!

The entire production cost of his show is only about one billion, now with three billion coming in, it’s just re-recording an episode and adding a spot, what’s the difficulty? It doesn’t exist!

Qin Shaowen went to get busy, while Lu Xiaobu waited leisurely.

Some might wonder, what’s all this fuss for?

Actually, it’s for nothing; he just feels these people sing without heart, and he’s planning to cultivate a singer who can sing with heart.

At the very least, in the future, there could be at least one person whose songs are pleasing to the ear!

Simply put—rich and willful!

Now, do you have any questions?!

No more, right! Alright, shut up!

With the support of money power, Qin Shaowen’s efficiency was exceptionally fast.

Very quick.

Personnel and venue, everything was ready, the previously recorded episode was abandoned!

The original four mentors also arrived.

Among them, two were known to Lu Xiaobu, they were Chen Wen and Fang Li, a couple.

It’s normal; although they are second-tier singers in the music industry, they have the skills and insight of first-tier singers. Inviting them is very worthwhile.

The other two singers, one is Na He, and the other is Sun Fei.

Sun Fei is a second-tier singer, while Na He is a first-tier singer, considered the star mentor of the show.

Sun Fei had a good attitude, immediately greeting Lu Xiaobu: ”Hello, Young Master Lu.”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Hello.”

However, Na He’s attitude was much worse, ignoring Lu Xiaobu completely, and instead said directly to Qin Shaowen: ”I hope this is the last time, I don’t have the schedule to play with you guys! If it happens again, I’ll quit directly!”

This was directed at Qin Shaowen, but wasn’t it also spoken to Lu Xiaobu?

Qin Shaowen quickly apologized with a smile: ”Sister He, please forgive us, forgive us! It really was an accident, an accident!”

”Young Master Lu, don’t mind her. Sister He just has that kind of temper.” Fang Li explained to Lu Xiaobu with a bitter smile.

In this world, not everyone will bow to the power of money, or even if they do, they’ll express their so-called pride.

Na He clearly is this kind of person.

”It’s fine.” Lu Xiaobu waved it off, not bothered.

The recording of the show soon began.

The mentors were alright, but the remaining four contestants seemed a bit at a loss.

They had clearly completed their songs and recordings, but now they were suddenly told to re-record and re-select their mentors, which left them troubled.

After all, suddenly changing mentors, wouldn’t that be slapping the previous mentor in the face?

But if none of them chose Lu Xiaobu, wouldn’t that be slapping him in the face?!

So, it was awkward.

”Don’t be nervous, just sing as you should, choose as you should.” Qin Shaowen told the contestants through the earpiece.

It officially started.

The specific process isn’t detailed, but it was a hot mess of activities.

In the end, a contestant who was originally going to choose Chen Wen chose Lu Xiaobu instead.

This was actually the result of the four mentors discussing together.

Na He said she wouldn’t give up her contestant, as that was her pick to win the championship. Sun Wen’s choice was actually a backup, or rather a sacrificial lamb, so it was clearly unfair to give it to Lu Xiaobu.

So, in the end, Chen Wen and Fang Li, one of them had to let go of their contestant.

This contestant was a male singer, wearing a clown mask and called Clown on the program.

The recording was completed, and Lu Xiaobu formally met Clown.

”Hello, Young Master Lu.” Clown looked at Lu Xiaobu nervously.

Honestly, he didn’t know if this decision was right or wrong, as clearly following an outsider was a risk.

Lu Xiaobu: ”Uh, don’t be nervous.”

Clown: ”Uh, Young Master Lu, was there something wrong with my singing earlier?”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Let’s not talk about that, I just want to ask, what song are you preparing for your next competition? Let me see.”

Clown: ”Sure, Young Master Lu, it’s this ’Breeze Song’, it’s my best song.”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Alright, sing it once.”

Clown: ”Okay.”

Lu Xiaobu frowned after listening: ”Alright, you can go. It’s fine now, if there’s anything, I’ll let you know.”

Clown looked puzzled: ”Okay then. Goodbye, Young Master Lu.”

After Clown left, Lu Xiaobu called Qin Shaowen: ”Tell me the real identity of that Clown.”

Qin Shaowen nodded: ”Sure, Young Master Lu.”

He really couldn’t figure out what Lu Xiaobu was up to!
