Chapter 010 5 Consecutive Draws
Chapter 010 5 Consecutive Draws
At 9:30 a.m., it is the prime time for many office workers to take a paid bathroom break and, incidentally, slack off by scrolling through their phones.
Just as netizens were still tirelessly discussing the suspenseful drama of Tao Cheng manually liking a strange emotional post late at night, Tao Cheng's official Weibo account finally released a statement amidst much anticipation.
[@是陶橙呀V: Oops, I accidentally typed this in the middle of the night! I've been working on a new song lately, and my emotional requirements are really high. Last night I was indeed reading this article to get a feel for it. Forget about that jerk, everyone look forward to my new song, it'll really make you "Flammable and Explosive"!]
The release of this statement, coupled with the astonishing popularity last night, instantly propelled the hashtag #TaoCheng'sFlammableAndExplosive# to the top of the trending searches, and within just over ten minutes it entered the top ten, heading straight for the top three.
[Yay, it's a new song!]
[Front row! I knew Orange was focused on her career! Go, sister! Looking forward to the new song!]
Protect the best oranges
[Disappointing. I thought there was some earth-shattering news, like a 40-meter-long sword being drawn.]
【"Flammable and Explosive"? Such an arrogant song title, are you a gasoline can?】—This is clearly a hater from a rival, and was quickly attacked.
"—Some people are being a bit sarcastic, aren't they from the Lemon family?"
—"Little Blackie!"
"Speak while you're on the toilet."
—"It'll ignite at the slightest touch and blow you to bits!"
[Let me translate this statement: Admitting fault, explaining, and finally revealing the real reason—I'm releasing a song!]
……
No matter how happy the fans are to welcome the single's release, or how heated the online debate is, the hype that Jinshi Music wanted has been thoroughly hyped up.
In this era where traffic is king, the ability to get a spot in the top ten trending searches at zero cost is largely due to public relations and publicity efforts.
However, behind the online frenzy often lies the hard work of countless ordinary people, such as Yang Du today.
With tight deadlines and heavy workloads, the recording studio at Jinshi Music headquarters was operating at full capacity, with everyone working like they were cultivating immortality, all in an effort to produce the master tapes within 72 hours.
A few minutes after the statement was released, Yang Du, who was sitting in front of the control panel, suddenly heard a mechanical voice in his mind.
"—Detected that the host's published work, 'I am for Love…,' has surpassed 100 million valid reads within 24 hours!"
"Congratulations, host, you have achieved the milestone of [One Million Reads]!"
"—Bonus Reward: 5 Lottery Draw Attempts!"
Yang Du was taken aback: "There's even an achievement system? This is forcing more people to see my articles!"
I just experienced a social media frenzy this morning, not to mention the online situation. Would I be the kind of person who would actively seek traffic just for a little reward?
Will do.
A meeting based on principle.
While Tao Cheng was resting and drinking water, Yang Du took a deep breath and started drawing lots.
As the command was given, a lottery interface appeared in Yang Du's field of vision.
According to the system description, the winning rate for this lottery is 100%, but what you get depends entirely on luck. However, for now, the prize pool items are all related to literary creation.
Yang Du immediately spotted the "diligent and hardworking" card, which is truly remarkable.
"I hope what I draw won't disappoint."
Yang Du couldn't help but recall the 100 yuan Maserati coupon that an e-commerce platform had given him in his previous life.
Is he short of 100?
what?
"But since it's a system, it can't be that unreliable, right?"
At least so far, the bug in the "Master of Emotional Literature" system card is exactly what Yang Du wanted.
"lottery!"
Five beams of colorful light shot out, accompanied by a crackling sound of electricity, and transformed into…
Five mosaics.
"..."
Sure enough, it froze again.
If this system were developed by a major company, it probably wouldn't survive the trial period.
A few seconds later, the system notification came.
"—Congratulations, host, you have obtained the following items:"
Charm +1: Slightly enhances the host's appearance, charisma, approachability, persuasiveness, and charismatic presence.
Big Fish
Energy Card *2: When activated, it creates an aura effect that lasts for 12 hours, greatly increasing the stamina recovery speed and mental agility of all units within the range.
Luck +1: Slightly increases the host's probability of a positive outcome and their ability to avoid risks in uncertain events.
Goodness, these are all good stuff!
Yang Du spotted the glittering "Big Fish" at a glance. It was a legendary OST from his previous life, so ethereal it sent chills down one's spine and swept across all the music charts!
The incredibly smooth transition between high notes and soft voices is practically a game-changer in pop music.
With the previous "Painting Heart" not yet used, plus this "Big Fish", he now has two OST powerhouses in his hands.
Yang Du closed his eyes and sensed it, but his body didn't seem to have undergone any obvious changes.
He knew that in the workplace, charm meant things like social charisma and filters.
If someone is charismatic enough, even if he has messy hair and wears baggy shorts while sitting on the control panel giving orders, the staff in the recording studio won't think he's just a young kid giving orders.
On the contrary, it will subconsciously create a sense of conviction that "although this person is young and casual, he is very professional and truly deserves to be called an artist."
As for luck, Yang Du inexplicably thought of a bug similar to making an infinite number of wishes when trying to use a magic lamp:
By relying on "Luck +1", you keep getting "Luck +1" in the lottery, and then it goes on indefinitely...
Of course, it's highly unlikely.
Right now, the two energy cards are the most useful to Yang Du.
"This is practically a capitalist's magic weapon for exploiting labor! I was just worried about not having enough time. We can just put it on during post-production!"
Over the next two days, Yang Du completely transformed into a workaholic.
He already possessed advanced mixing skills, had a rough idea of what his previous life's work would look like as a reference, and was further enhanced by the energy card...
The efficiency of the entire post-production team was simply amazing.
When Fang Lei arrived with dark circles under his eyes and several large cups of iced Americano to keep him going, he expected to see a novice producer who was exhausted and mentally disoriented from being tormented by hundreds of audio tracks.
To his surprise, when he pushed open the door to the mixing room, Yang Du not only had a rosy and radiant complexion, but also seemed to have the leisure to turn around and chat with him.
"Hey, Director Fang, here to inspect the work?" Yang Du pressed the pause button, stood up, took the iced Americano, and invited the other mixing engineers to go to the rest area for drinks. "The progress is much faster than expected. By the way, where's Teacher Wang Shihui? He should be here to give us some guidance by now."
"You little rascal, you still remember?" Fang Lei's lips twitched slightly. "He's busy right now, he doesn't have time to come here."
"Oh, how so?"
"The company just landed a big contract to create the core theme song for a movie. Teacher Wang and his team worked two all-nighters, and both demos they produced were rejected. They don't have the time to deal with your business right now."
"Hehe!" Yang Du couldn't help but grin when he heard that both of Wang Shihui's demos had been rejected.
Fang Lei pointed at Yang Du: "You're not allowed to go to the next shed and laugh at them."
"How could that be? I still have work to do. Besides, do you think I'm that kind of person?"
Audio editing, mixing, mastering...
When the final master tape was completed, there was still a 5-hour surplus before the 72-hour limit was reached.
