Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star

Chapter 228: Learning How to Sing

Huo Ming now understood why Xue Yunfei noticed this influencer. She was quite different from others.

He knew this is Liu Man’s first time in a recording studio, so he said: “We can go through the song so you can warm up.”

Liu Man saw a screen in front of her, the lyrics displayed on it.

“Ready?” Ho Ming asked.

Liu Man nodded.

“Go.”

Liu Man opened her mouth and sang:

“Have you ever seen the wind,

Neither have I,

But when the leaves tremble,

You know that the wind was here before.

If I turn into a bird,

You can find me in the shadow of a big tree;

If I turn into a star,

You can find me in the darkest part of the sky;

If I am the wind,

Please look at the direction the wind is blowing from,

That’s me.

…”

Liu Man sang seriously, and Xue Yunfei and Huo Ming listened attentively.

After the song, Liu Man looked at the two men nervously.

Xue Yunfei said, “Your throat has a gift, but your air is unsteady. This is related to how you breathe when you sing. I’ll teach you.”

Xue Yunfei taught her what to do, from how to open her mouth to how to breathe out. Liu Man met his standards one by one.

After practicing over and over again, her breathe was fairly steady.

So she sang again.

Huo Ming stroked his chin, quietly thinking about something. When Liu Man finished, he said: “That’s so weird. The way you sing is very traditional. Usually, only grandpas or grandmas sing the way you do.”

Liu Man felt very embarrassed.

She’s someone from the past, so she can’t be as modern as Huo Ming.

Huo Ming said: “I’ll teach you a new singing style: ‘low humming style’.”

“You don’t have to pronounce each word clearly. Try humming softly and pause for a moment after each line. This way, you’ll sound more natural. Try singing the first line again.”

After Liu Man processed Huo Ming’s method, she sang: “Have you ever seen the wind? Neither have I. But when the leaves tremble, you know that the wind was here before.” Liu Man’s voice sounded like a soft sigh at the end.

“Perfect! That’s the feeling,” Huo Ming applauded and complimented, “You’re very smart, and you have talent.”

So Liu Man sang for the third time. This time, both Xue Yunfei and Huo Ming were very satisfied.

Liu Man’s voice itself is very clean and lively. It was like an afternoon nap of a kitten, quiet and lazily lying in the sun. With the “low humming method”, her voice will let the listener have a gentle and natural feeling, as if one could be integrated into the song’s background story.

Liu Man sang the whole song again.

“Ok, done,” Huo Ming pressed on the stop button.

Liu Man put down her headphones and walked out of the booth.

Xue Yunfei asked her, “Do you want to hear your own singing?”

Since Xue Yunfei and Huo Ming corrected a lot of her mistakes, Liu Man felt like she didn’t do an adequate job. Sounding shy, she replied, “No, I’ll wait until you guys have it all edited.”

“Ok, we’ll do the editing and send you the demo.”

“One more thing,” Xue Yunfei had just remembered, “I sent Ye Zian a WeChat so he can give you your twenty-thousand RMB. Give me an account so we can directly put the money in there.”

Liu Man wrote down her credit card number.

Ye Zian generously gave her her money just a day after.

That day, Liu Man learned a lot from the two pop music artists and even had dinner with them.

At the same time, Ye Ziliang’s started filming his documentary at Yu Zhan’s pet hospital. In order to not affect Yu Zhan’s original job, only Ye Ziliang, Sun Weiwei and Tao Zhiyao were there on the first day.

Their shooting started when Yu Zhan opened the doors of the hospital.

The young nurse came to work on time. She first saw Ye Ziliang and asked familiarly, “Mr. Ye, you have come to give Melon medical examination? You’re the most pet-friendly guest I’ve ever met. ”

“I’m here to work, ” Ye Ziliang said with a smile. “We’ll need your cooperation.”

Only now did the nurse notice the two young girls beside Ye Ziliang. One held a moderately-sized camera. She asked curiously, “Are you guys news reporters? Am I going on TV?”

“Haha, we’re here to help Ziliang film a documentary,” Sun Weiwei explained.

Yu Zhan then came out of the room and explained to the little nurse what was happening: “They will probably stay here for about ten days to get the materials. We all have to cooperate with them.”

The little nurse was very happy. She is such an ordinary person, doing such an ordinary job. She would have never thought that there would be people willing to make documentary of them. She smiled to Ye Ziliang and the others, “I’ll help you guys with anything you want.”

“What is your daily job?” Sun Weiwei asked according to the script.

The nurse thought carefully and said, “my duties are quite mixed. Give injections, hang bottles, categorize the surgery materials, hand scalpels to my boss, clean wounds, tear down the wire… Oh, and every day before the opening I have to clean this place, and sometimes help the boss walk the dog.”

Her sentence just finished as today’s first guest with a pet to see the doctor walked into the door. The nurse immediately turned around and said, “Hello, Miss Yu. People here today work for the TV and want to make a documentary. Would you like to be on camera?”

Miss Yu is also Yu Zhan’s acquaintance. She is a 30 or so, white-collar, and has a female German Shepherd dog who got pregnant two months ago. Every half a month Miss Yu will drive the dog here to do a type-B ultrasonic diagnosis.

Miss Yu heard the words “TV” and “documentary”, saw that Tao Zhiyao’s equipments were professional, trusted Yu Zhan and the nurse, and therefore decided to cooperate and allow them to film her.

Sun Weiwei asked her using a tiny microphone, “What is the name of your German Shepherd?”

“She’s Fairy.”

Tao Zhiyao fell silent.

Her right hand slipped and almost dropped the camera.

“Seems like it has a big stomach. How long has it been pregnant?” Sun Weiwei said, and Tao Zhiyao focused her camera on the dog’s belly.

“Sixty days. Almost ready to give birth. That’s why we’re here for a final check to see how we’re going to help her give birth.” Miss Yu smiled.

“Do you look forward to its babies?”

“Of course. It is a member of my family and this is good news. When younger members join us, I’ll become a grandma!”
