Entering the Hall was just the beginning; scheduling shifts was the real challenge.
(Voice Hall Beginner Tips:
① 1 hour counts as 1 shift, with 8 singers performing in the Mic Queue. 599 Fireworks (59.9 yuan) allows song requests. The first 3 minutes before starting are for compiling the first round Song List. If votes are insufficient, only half a song can be performed. The second round Song List depends on gift votes—singers without votes get no second round.
② 1 yuan = 10 coins. Task 1.0 = 1000 coins (100 yuan). Task 10.0 = 10000 coins (1000 yuan).)
Newcomers receive five Any Top Cards for scheduling, allowing them to claim one slot at any time, with only the basic Task 1.0 required.
Choosing a late-night slot (2 AM – 8 AM) and completing 6 full hours earns one Any Top Card.
The person with the most monthly scheduling hours receives one King Top Card.
Priority order: King Top Card > Newcomer Top Card > Any Top Card.
Additionally, at 45 minutes past each hour, the host opens Deduct Slot in the scheduling group, closing at 50 minutes. The first responder gets the Speed Deduct Slot, needing only to meet the minimum task requirement. Others must deduct Task Value, and those with higher tasks before the deadline can replace those with lower ones. The Training Camp’s minimum Deduct Slot task is 1.0, while the formal Four Seasons Hall requires at least 5.0.
The host’s task is the average of the current shift—also not easy—with the sole advantage of not needing to compete for slots via Deduct Slot.
Failing to complete the deducted task results in a Fine of 30% of the deficit, much like Zhang Zhe’s daily cries about Hanging on the Tree.
Nan Que calculated: as a newcomer scheduling one hour, the minimum task was 100 yuan. If they scored zero, the Fine per shift would be 30 yuan—truly difficult for someone without fans.
But they had to schedule anyway.
Even Hanging on the Tree, they had to schedule—the less they scheduled, the less attention they’d get.
Nan Que clicked open Zhang Zhe’s Song List and skimmed it. Ugh, no good, couldn’t use it as reference—all rap.
Singing rap during the assessment was his limit; going crazy once didn’t mean he could do it again.
After some thought, his fingers nimbly typed in the search bar—Xiao.
X. Xiao, 68,000 fans.
The first post was a Song List, 6 pages total.
“His ancestors were truly rich! How does he know so many songs?”
Nan Que marveled while browsing, then secretly started copying the Song List again.
He realized this guy’s popularity made sense: Douzi’s music updates were lightning-fast, yet X. Xiao kept up, posting works more diligently than others’ Secondary Creations.
His Song List was uniquely organized too. Most singers listed songs in order, like by pinyin or character count.
Xiao’s Song List always had recent hits on the first page, covering almost all popular covers on the site, with a note at the bottom—
599 Fireworks for any song request; will learn if unfamiliar.
Confident, so confident.
Nan Que had heard Xiao learn songs—incredibly fast and patient, rapping when asked, singing deep tunes when requested, without any idol baggage, a very adaptable person.
Thanks to his great live stream effects, he’d gained nearly 70,000 fans in just a few months, with his works consistently featuring in Big Head each month.
A born Live Stream Saint Body.
With such a template right there, Nan Que didn’t need to think—just copy his Song List directly!
Easy peasy, hehe.
Then, he also hung a song list on his own empty homepage.
Zhe: Let’s go, time for scheduling. Today, your big bro will take you to experience what it feels like to hang on the tree during peak hours.
Nan Que: OK.
It was 19:44. Nan Que opened the Deduct Slot group, rubbing his hands in anticipation!
Training Camp Deduct Slot Group:
X. Qingchen: 20:00-21:00 shift, deduct slot opened, 6+1.
X. Wu: 7.
X. Shazi: 7.
X. Zhe: 7.
X. Qingchen: @Wu, fast fingers. Everyone else, start deducting tasks.
X. Zhe: 2.0.
X. Shazi: 3.0.
By the time the scheduling group message popped up on Nan Que’s phone, the task deduction had already started.
Nan Que: …Useless iPhone! I’m replacing you with a domestic one soon!
He could only quickly grab a 3.0 task.
Zhe: Why not use the newcomer pin? And you grabbed a 3.0? That’ll cost you 100 a day!
Nan Que: Let’s not use it for now, I’ll see how things go.
The newcomer pin card is valid for a month anyway—gotta find the right opportunity.
At 20:00 in the evening, in the Siji Xianyin Training Camp Hall, eight singers started their shifts on time.
Host X. Qingchen was on Mic 1.
“Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the Training Camp’s evening 8 o’clock shift!”
“These are all unfamiliar newbies here. If you’re tired of the old-timers, come pick your favorite Lovecast here~”
“Hahaha, just kidding, just kidding. Let me boast a bit—Siji Xianyin’s Training Camp is the highest quality and most promising newcomer shift. Every spot in the Mic Queue has its own unique skills, so feel free to enjoy yourselves~”
“But after all, they’re still newbies. If there’s any lack of hospitality, please be understanding, brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts!”
“Now, let me announce the tasks: Mic 1, host Qingchen, task 2.0; Mic 2 is our new friend Wu, fast fingers; Mic 3 is Shazi, also our new friend, task 3.0; Mic 4 is Zhe, task 2.0; Mic 5 is also our new friend Nan Que, task 3.0…”
“Lots of new friends today~ Alright, the host will start with an opening song. Hope you like it!”
Nan Que listened quietly on mic, with his phone recording the screen nearby.
X. Qingchen was already a regular singer, but he couldn’t meet the high task requirements in the main hall and was assigned to host in the Training Camp. He probably had at most a month left—if his streaming numbers didn’t improve, he’d have to take the Second Exam.
But his hosting skills were quite solid. For the first three minutes, there was no dead air, and he made sure to acknowledge every newcomer.
As for his singing…
It was hard to judge.
He had a standard Uncle Voice, but he always insisted on singing those convoluted ancient-style songs. Such a waste.
With that voice, if he sang some dynamic Submerged Songs during his Individual Broadcast, he’d totally captivate people.
Being so serious about it—no wonder his numbers weren’t improving.
X. Wu’s voice was also very deep. He sang “Dilemma,” and the low bass beats nearly overwhelmed Nan Que’s eardrums.
X. Shazi sang a love song, “Third Person,” with deep emotion and a touch of melancholy. Nan Que was completely enchanted and decided to follow Shazi after the shift.
X. Zhe was unusually serious today, directly performing “Love9.” Nan Que almost couldn’t resist sending him some gifts.
“Alright, mic to Nan Que~”
“Hello everyone~ Greetings, brothers and sisters. I’m newcomer Nan Que, today is my first time doing scheduling…” Nan Que was adjusting the accompaniment when he saw his score change.
[5 Mic: Can you sing “Wretched Land”? Requesting a song.]
Nan Que hesitated for a moment. Seeing that the host remained silent, he proactively responded on mic.
“Sister requested a song? I can sing “Wretched Land”. Should I sing it now?”
[Mhm]
The brilliant drumbeats of the accompaniment began.
“Once I was restless river water Passing through forests, straying into your heart With no plans to camp, leaving behind right and wrong Never to return…”
Nan Que cleverly turned up the reverb a bit, lowered his voice slightly, creating a dreamy vocal tone in the opening.
[Zhe: Wow!]
[I like this! Another bass voice?]
[No no no, I think it’s a soft voice pretending to be deep]
“I’ve never seen Smooth hills How to touch Blooming marshes”
Nan Que sang higher and higher, pushing his natural voice upward.
“Hey—when I find you Testing your eyes Embracing without distraction That’s my only tenderness and the reason I love you In this wretched land…”
[Hahaha, the high notes give it away, a true bass voice couldn’t go that high]
[Sounds great! Sounds great!]
[AI? Someone actually sent tickets for this?]
