Producer System: My Girlfriend is a Cellist

Classical... classical music?

Zhu Ye glanced again, making sure he wasn't mistaken.

Is it real...

Before Zhu Ye could think more.

A huge chord sounded.

The live performance peaked again, forcibly drawing Zhu Ye's attention back.

Mao Weiang's cello performance grew fiercer, as if under a special musical magic spell:

The bass strings produced the static noise of old radios tuning frequencies.

The bow danced over the four strings, like a street dancer stepping on offbeat drum patterns.

And when he reached the ultimate climax, Mao Weiang leaned back abruptly, pointing the neck of the cello to the sky, as if shooting notes into the cosmos...

At that moment,

all the audience, including the commentary booth.

Became targets of this magical spell, their entire beings rejoicing.....

"This is the King of Pop Music!!" Fengye exclaimed admiringly.

As the music concluded.

Amidst the wave-like applause and cheers from the entire venue.

Maozi stood up, still arching his thin body, approached the front of the stage.

Humbly and politely bowed to everyone.

Displaying gentlemanly grace.

".....Bravo!!"

"A masterful demeanor! Maozi's cello is worthy of his reputation in the Chinese Music Industry!!" Zhu Ye cheered.

The panel of judges, a group of old professors, nodded continuously, their faces showing unprecedented relaxation.

This stage was nothing but pure enjoyment time.

A performance without any shortcomings.

A stunning original music piece.

A piece called "Electricity and Sheep Intestine Strings Sonnet", as the name suggests, was a feast of listening purely composed of the instrumental combinations leveraging the charm of the notes themselves!

Almost every listener easily felt the purest allure of music —

That is bringing joy to people!

Such a performance.

In the current Dragon Violin Cup 2025, is very representative indeed, it demonstrated the openness and inclusiveness of the current music world, leading the trend of the entire musical circle.

In the eyes of the judges.

This, is a 100-point politically correct piece!

Not all political correctness is against the mass, quite the opposite, such a trend exists to cater to public aesthetics.

Perhaps it can be said, this is a kind of "People's Correctness"!

"....."

Zhu Ye's interpretation elevated the competition's framework, bringing the atmosphere in the live-streaming room to an unprecedented peak.

And the audience's reaction now precisely confirmed this point.

[Really... don't laugh at me, it's my first time watching a competition, I actually couldn't quite understand most of the previous pieces, not knowing if they were good or bad.. but Maozi's piece, I knew at once — it's a good piece!]

[Exactly!! I've watched quite a few competitions, and most of the time I can't tell who is good or bad, but I didn't dare to say... it's Maozi's performance that finally made me feel like I could understand the competition....]

[Hahaha, truly! Maozi's cello sounds way better than the previous ones!]

[Maybe I'm a bit vulgar, can't tell what's expressed, but I just like it.....]

[.....]

By the time Mao Weiang's performance finished.

The live-streaming room of the official Dragon Violin Cup competition reached its highest online number since the broadcast started — a full 500,000+.

To say the least.

This 500,000+ is already the limit for music competition audiences in Tian Chao.

And a considerable number of them were watching a music competition of this scale for the first time!

Meanwhile.

The name "Electricity and Sheep Intestine Strings Sonnet".

At the same time, made it to the trending topics on Weibo!

And dominated the public's vision across video platforms like Douyin and Bilibili.

The performance had just ended minutes ago.

Recordings and clips were already being continuously posted.

This was the first major breakthrough of a cello competition this year!

In this, of course, there's the traffic boost from Maozi as the King of Pop Music.

And the quality of the music itself is a powerful weapon driving all of this.

[The first time I watched a complete cello competition was because of Maozi!]

[Ah ah ah, who understands! Maozi playing the cello looks really handsome!]

[It's so good, it feels like my ears are pregnant! It's the first time I realized music without lyrics could sound so good!]

[Can we add lyrics and re-release this piece afterwards, haha... how about Mr. Chen sings it?]

[.....]

The online rhythm was like this.

And the two commentators at the commentary booth no longer needed to hold back words of praise.

"Even though it's his first competition, Maozi's performance... is totally of the finals level!" Fengye said.

"Yes, throughout today's competition, there were quite a few musicians playing similar pop music, objectively, some pieces they chose may not necessarily be much worse than Maozi's 'Sonnet'."

Zhu Ye said,

"However, in terms of the ability to interpret pop music, none come close to Maozi."

"Indeed, after all, he is an exceptionally outstanding music producer in the industry." Fengye sighed.

Compares to many cellists in Tian Chao, who received their musical education in local places and Music Academies.

As music competition pieces lean more and more toward "modern pop music".

Like Mao Weiang, who comes from the Chinese Music Industry with a pure pop music heritage, this itself is years of experience in producing pop music.
