Chapter 1146 -999: Selected for the Coaching Staff_2
To serve the Continent.
Lin Yuan was stunned for a long time upon receiving this message.
To be exact, Lin Yuan hadn’t yet recovered from the decision made by the Literature and Art Association.
Blue Songlympics?
What was that?
It took quite a while for Lin Yuan to realize this was a unique competition bred from the soil of Blue Star!
This was clearly the Olympics!
The eight continents were akin to eight countries vying for victory, with the difference being that the competitors were musicians, not athletes!
Furthermore.
Others in the Yu Dynasty had also received the message.
There would be an internal selection to choose a group qualified to represent Qin Continent in battle, and they all had to undergo screening.
No one would refuse.
It was not just about bringing glory to the Continent, but also about fighting for personal honor.
Even just stepping onto the stage of the Blue Songlympics was a kind of qualification in itself, even if the results were mediocre.
The singers’ desire to compete in the Blue Songlympics was just like athletes longing to compete in the Bluelympics.
“I should be joining the coaching team.”
Lin Yuan answered Sun Yaohuo’s question, though the decision was made with reluctance.
Why the reluctance?
Because Lin Yuan could completely participate as a competitor himself.
But a coach could not compete.
That was the regulation.
He had to choose one or the other.
With Lin Yuan’s ability, he was confident that as a singer, he could win more than one gold medal for Qin Continent.
However, in the end, Lin Yuan chose to be a coach.
Not only because being a coach had strategic significance for the team of Qin Continent, but also because of a particular rule of the Blue Songlympics regarding the competitors…
A single competitor could participate in a maximum of four events.
After all, many singers excelled in various types of music.
Like Fei Yang.
The quietest ballads, the loudest rock, the most popular pop, and so on, he could sing them all well.
There were quite a few such kings and queens of singing, neither too many nor too few, which is why such a restriction had been established.
Lin Yuan felt like he had been restricted the most, and quite severely at that.
Even Dao Mei hadn’t been cut down this badly.
Since that was the case, he might as well join the coaching group, especially since the official recruitment had expressed this intention.
As for the music arena?
That would definitely have to be set aside.
The importance of the Blue Songlympics was clear.
Over the years, Lin Yuan, as a Qin person, had developed a sort of regional sentiment.
Since he was from Qin Continent, of course, he wanted to contribute to the music of Qin Continent.
Because for the music of each Continent, it was a concept of shared glory or shared disgrace.
If Qin Continent performed poorly at the Blue Songlympics, the entire Qin music industry would lose face, and no one would be spared.
Lin Yuan was well aware of this.
…
Qin Continent!
Inside a certain building.
As soon as Lin Yuan walked in, he saw the room was full of Maestros, like cabbages on the side of the street, and the kind nobody wanted to buy.
Yin Dong!
Zheng Jing!
Lu Sheng!
Yang Zhongming!
All of Lin Yuan’s acquaintances were there!
The Maestros of Qin Continent had almost all arrived!
Noticing that no one was sitting to the right of Teacher Yang Zhongming, Lin Yuan went over: “Is there a meeting?”
Yang Zhongming shook his head: “We’ll be casting anonymous votes in a moment.”
Lin Yuan was taken aback.
A middle-aged man in a suit entered: “I am Qin Feng, the deputy director of the Literature and Art Association’s Qin Continent branch. Today, we have invited everyone to cast a fair vote to select the head coach for the Blue Songlympics.”
“How about considering me?”
Lu Sheng half-jokingly, half-seriously joked, prompting quite a bit of laughter.
Zheng Jing was blunt: “I saw online they call you little salty fish.”
Lu Sheng corrected: “Little Xian Yu, not little salty fish!”
The crowd teased: “With your capabilities, you’re at best a salty fish.”
Alright then.
Jokes aside.
When it came time to count the votes, Lu Sheng indeed received quite a few, ranking second.
The person with the highest number of votes was Yang Zhongming.
This wasn’t something that carried much suspense.
In the professional circles, Yang Zhongming was a top-level big shot, and the Maestros were all aware of the gap between themselves and him.
Now that it involved the entire Qin music industry, everyone dared not harbor too much selfishness.
Although nearly every person present coveted the position of head coach for the Qin Continent team.
Of course.
That did not include Lin Yuan.
Not that Lin Yuan did not want to be the head coach.
The main reason was that Lin Yuan knew he wasn’t qualified.
The position of the coach for the Qin team involved too many aspects, including countless experiences in music.
Lin Yuan had the System’s help, and his own music cultivation had improved greatly over the years, but compared to a grandmaster like Yang Zhongming, there was still a significant gap. He knew this well, so when voting, he did not hesitate to write down Uncle Yang’s name.
“Teacher Yang Zhongming, would you like to say a few words?”
The Literature and Art Association’s deputy director of music, Qin Feng, smiled: “You are now our Qin Continent’s grand marshal for the expedition.”
“Okay.”
Yang Zhongming did not decline and stood up to speak: “Thank you all for your support. I accept the role of grand marshal, but I’ll need a few generals.”
Qin Feng said: “Pick them.”
Yang Zhongming’s gaze swept across the crowd: “Lu Sheng, Zheng Jing, Yin Dong…”
He named eight people in a row, and lastly looked at Lin Yuan beside him: “And Xian Yu.”
Yang Zhongming had selected nine coaches.
Those who had not been named had various expressions.
Some were indifferent, some disappointed, and some slightly resentful or even disagreeing.
Pretending not to see the faces around him, Yang Zhongming turned to the rest: “The rest of you don’t think about slacking off. Later, we’ll have a meeting where everyone will join different events according to their expertise, given the hundreds of coaching positions available.”
…
The coaching members from all the continents were successively announced.
Qin Continent.
Online.
The netizens were as anxious as ants on a hot pan!
