I turned out to be top-notch!

Chapter 98 Hidden Skills

Who is Gu Jiachang?
Looking at the densely packed professions under this search, Zhou Dingran was puzzled. He finally gave up on finding the other party's identity and started rubbing his hands together, preparing to open the skill blind box.

[Congratulations on getting the skill blind box x1, do you want to open it? 】

"Turn on!"

[Congratulations on obtaining the elite composition ability (hidden). Do you want to receive it? 】

Zhou Dingran looked at the line of virtual small characters in front of him, feeling excited and a little confused at the same time.

Elite composition ability?
If I remember correctly, there seems to be no such skill in the system redemption list, right?

Is it a hidden skill?
He had gone through the mall's redemption list and found no abilities related to songwriting and songwriting. Elite-level acting and singing skills required more than 100 million favorability points to redeem.

Zhou Dingran glanced at the personal attributes panel.

In addition to master-level dancing, singing, and acting skills, he now has an elite level of composition ability.

Then he couldn't help but check the exchange list in the mall, and surprisingly discovered the existence of elite-level composition ability, but the suffix showed that it was hidden.

"Could it be that in the system skill redemption list, in addition to those that can be redeemed, there are also some hidden skills that require opening a skill blind box to be revealed?"

Zhou Dingran was vaguely stunned.

"receive!"

He started collecting it immediately.

The next moment, Zhou Dingran only felt that his brain was slightly swollen, but it quickly calmed down.

He stood there and thought about it carefully, only to feel that there seemed to be some common things in his mind.

Yes, they are commonplace, such as the music scores of "Borrowing from Heaven for Another 500 Years", "Lonely Warrior", "My Land" and other songs. Originally Zhou Dingran couldn't understand those notes, but now when he looks at these music scores, he just feels Commonplace.

There is even an illusion that "I understand these music scores originally".

The system changes people's cognition only in an instant.

Zhou Dingran was impressed by the power of the system, and immediately couldn't help but take out a pen and paper, and began to recall the songs that he could still think of and remember clearly.

Over the next two days, he began to hum and write down the music he hummed into musical notes.

He was over 40 years old in his previous life and was not very fond of the latest popular songs, but he had deep memories of some popular songs in his youth. Therefore, some of the songs written by Zhou Dingran were basically old songs.

For example, "Love Is Like Tide", "Dusk", "The Past You", "Breaking Point" or some classic online songs "Lilac", "The First Snow in 2002" and so on.

Even for these songs, when Zhou Dingran relied on memory to restore the notes of these works, he did so intermittently.

But the chorus part is almost perfectly restored.

Even Zhou Dingran can hum a line from "Dusk": "I still remember saying goodbye from your mouth as firmly as iron, and there is an illusion that the scorching sun is burning in the darkness..."

These classic old songs belong to the memory of an era and allow Zhou Dingran to still think of them immediately even after ten or twenty years.

In two days, Zhou Dingran did not write a complete song, but he wrote demos of these classic songs. It only needs a little polishing and supplementation to become a new song.

With elite composition ability, Zhou Dingran's path in the music world will be smoother. Even without systematic help, he can rely on this ability to recall those classic song fragments from his previous life, and then make a name for himself in the music world.

"Since you are preparing to participate in "The King of Masked Singer", you should prepare a competition song?"

"No, according to the competition format, I should prepare four songs!"

Zhou Dingran suddenly remembered the competition format of "The King of Masked Singer".A total of eight contestants will participate in the competition in masks in each episode.

But the first performance was a duo singing a song, with the winner advancing to the next round.

The four winning players will then compete in a two-by-two PK to select the two winners who advance.

After the two winners advance, it’s the King of Singers competition.

The winner of the final show will compete with the winner of the previous show, and the winner will become the singer king of this show.

"Singing four songs in a row is the best result."

"If you can't even win the first round...then there will be no need to sing the three songs prepared later."

Zhou Dingran felt the cruelty of the competition system.

The contestants have worked hard to prepare four songs, but if they fail in the first round, it will be really miserable and embarrassing. All their efforts will be in vain.

"Perhaps Wang Xiu came to me because he treated me like cannon fodder? He's the kind of player who can't even get past the first round."

Zhou Dingran was a little self-deprecating.

But this is not without purpose, because almost every contestant who can participate in the recording of "The King of Masked Singer" is a capable singer. Many people's abilities are almost the same, and they rely on luck.

Luck is a very mysterious thing, but it is real.

If he does not perform well in the first chorus duel, then Zhou Dingran will have no choice but to go home.

“Growing up, I have never sung a song with anyone on stage!”

Zhou Dingran felt the pressure.

Because as far as he knows, for the first chorus song, the masked contestants will not rehearse at all. The two will sing directly after the show officially starts recording.

"Fortunately, now that I have elite composition skills, I can at least understand music scores."

While Zhou Dingran comforted himself, he also began to actively prepare songs for the competition.

Except for the first song, which requires both chorus contestants to vote and discuss together, the other three songs can be prepared by themselves, and each singer has corresponding song rehearsal time.

Zhou Dingran did not prepare to sing other people's songs. With his system, he could throw out classic original songs one after another and shock the entire music world.

"What song should I prepare?"

Zhou Dingran looked at the mall exchange list.

"Since it is a competition, we must choose songs that are highly competitive."

"My singing skills have reached a master level, and with the help of elite composition skills, I can challenge more than [-]% of the songs..."

"Although the songs of Jay Chou, JJ Lin and others are good, firstly, they are too expensive and I can't afford them. Secondly, they are not very competitive. Maybe many people like to play them on a loop, and the more they listen to them, the better they sound. But the first impression gives people It’s not stunning enough and can’t achieve the effect of a bomb blast at all…”

In the song redemption list, densely packed songs appeared in front of my eyes.

"Some songs are indeed very competitive, such as "Love Even If You Die," but unfortunately my voice talent is not enough. I will most likely not be able to sing high notes. It would be too embarrassing if my voice breaks."

"Wait, Poyin?"

Zhou Dingran's eyes lit up.
