Chapter 468 As expected of a prodigy!
Chen Yu then printed out the list, which only contained simple numbers, names, genders, and representative works!
Then the names of all sixteen rooms were printed out, and everyone knew their room name and followed the staff to their respective rooms.
When they arrived at the room, they found that many things had been prepared, most importantly a karaoke machine and some detailed information placed in the center of the room.
Ouyang Xue was assigned to room number one!
"Oh my, Sister Liu, you've been assigned to room number one too! I'm so happy!"
"Yes, the two sisters can perform together again."
"Yes!" Ouyang Xue nodded, very happy.
Then many more people came in, the youngest being Ouyang Xue, and the oldest being 63 years old, definitely a veteran artist!
"Mr. Wang, I didn't expect you to be here. It's so stressful to be on the same stage as you!"
"Yes, I'm getting old, and this is all I can do for my fellow countrymen. Don't feel pressured; I might not even do as well as you!"
"You're absolutely right!"
···
Just as everyone was exchanging pleasantries, Chen Yu's voice suddenly came through the loudspeaker in the room.
"Dear teachers, now is not the time for idle chatter. You should all see what's in the center of the room, right? There are song demos, accompaniments, arrangements, sheet music, lyrics, and so on. Detailed information for each song is there. Please familiarize yourselves with it first, and then see if you have any questions. In three hours, I will start by discussing the songs with you, beginning with the first room," Chen Yu said.
He doesn't have time to visit them one by one right now; he has many other things to take care of.
Putting everything else aside, he's the one who makes the videos and photos we need.
Although others can do it, their efficiency and quality do not meet Chen Yu's requirements.
Chen Yu has to review every photo and every video to decide whether they are appropriate, and if so, when to play them. He is responsible for all of these things.
Although he could hand it over to another director, Chen Yu didn't want to ruin the gala.
I don't want to rely on too many people.
Upon hearing Chen Yu's words, these celebrities all picked up the lyrics and music of the song and began to read them.
"A prodigy! Absolutely a prodigy! This song, 'Let the World Be Filled with Love,' is absolutely amazing. It's the best song I've ever heard in my life, bar none. This song definitely deserves to be called the number one charity song since the founding of the People's Republic of China." An old man said after reading the lyrics and music of "Let the World Be Filled with Love" and trying to sing it once.
"Yes, I never expected Chen Yu to be able to write such a song. It truly deserves to be a treasured piece. However, keeping such a song as a treasure is a waste. This kind of song should have been released to the world much earlier. Only in this way can we do justice to this song."
"Gentlemen, shall we listen to the demo that Chen Yu gave us?" said a relatively young celebrity.
"it is good!"
Everyone agreed and then turned on the equipment.
A light and airy accompaniment began.
Then Chen Yu's voice rang out, but it was somewhat in harmony.
"Gently cup your face"
I wiped away your tears
This heart will always belong to you.
Tell me you're no longer alone
I gaze deeply into your eyes.
Upon hearing the singing, everyone was astonished. Was that Chen Yu's voice?! It sounded like a group of women singing in unison.
But there are some differences.
No one interrupted or offered any opinions; they listened to the song in silence.
"Is this sung by Chen Yu?!" an old man asked.
“It was sung by Chen Yu. The lyrics are marked on the last page. Because of the time constraint, they couldn’t find enough people, so they had to choose one person to imitate the voices of multiple people,” Ouyang Xue said.
"Holy crap, this is completely upending my worldview. Cross-dressing is one thing, but this cross-dressing duet is just too much. It's monstrous."
"Yes, I don't have that skill, and I doubt there are many in the world who do. But this song is truly excellent. It's arguably the best song I've ever sung, even surpassing my most famous work!"
"Don't be so harsh. This song is indeed unbeatable in a certain aspect, but if we put it on its own, it can only be considered a hit song, not unbeatable! There is no absolute number one in the world. They did a good thing this time by letting Chen Yu organize this fundraising gala."
"Ouyang Xue, you're quite familiar with Chen Yu. Could you introduce me to him and ask him to write a song for me? I've been silent for too long and desperately need a good song!"
"Sister Liu, you're overthinking it. My relationship with him is just that of friends, not even close friends. We rarely hear from him. He has many identities, but his most important one is that of a scientist. He should spend most of his time on research!"
I've talked to his girlfriend, Wang Yali, a few times. Even though Wang Yali doesn't know much about what he does in his spare time, she knows he's very busy—not with songwriting or anything, but with all sorts of research. And when he's doing research, Wang Yali isn't allowed to be nearby!
"real or fake?!"
"That's possible. The iPhone I have here was developed by Chen Yu. It's a global sensation right now. It's estimated that Chen Yu has made tens of billions of dollars from this phone. And as everyone knows, Chen Yu used his absolute authority to cause his company to lose over a hundred billion dollars in one fell swoop."
A hundred billion RMB worth of women! That's a number we can only dream of in our lifetime, yet they've contributed it all.
What I admire most about Chen Yu is his character. He follows the rules and leaves the company's operations to the managers, without interfering arbitrarily.
He even established a think tank to oversee him.
Of course, he definitely has measures in place to monitor the company's operations, but honestly, if it were me, I definitely wouldn't do anything but run the company. I wouldn't feel comfortable leaving it in someone else's hands!
"That's true. There are very few people with his kind of courage. Even if you asked the former world's richest man, Gates, to contribute 1000 billion, he couldn't do it because he simply doesn't have that much money."
Most importantly, all of these actions were taken in the name of a Chinese person.
"Yes, he abandoned all identities, leaving only one: Chinese! This kind of dedication is rare. Our country is fortunate to have him!"
"Who says otherwise?! I'm just really curious what kind of parents could have a son like that. If I could have a son like that in my life, I'd be willing to die ten years earlier!"
"Old Li, stop daydreaming. There can only be one Chen Yu in this world. If another one comes along, I reckon those foreigners will come with their planes and cannons to snatch him away!"
