Chereads / Legend of the Music Queen in a Parallel World / Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Imagine

Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Imagine

When Emily opened her eyes again, she had made her decision. She will perform a song that will touch people's hearts, a song that will leave a lasting impression on her in this new world. She chose "Imagine" - a song about peace and hope, with a simple and pure melody that touched people's hearts.

Emily's fingers began to dance on the keys, and the music flowed out like a clear spring.

Imagine there's no Heaven, it's easy if you try

No Hell below us, above us, only skies

Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries, it isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for, no

And no religion, too, oh

Imagine all the people living life in peace

You, you may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope some day you'll join us

And the world will be as one

Will be as one

Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people sharing all the world

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope some day you'll join us

And the world will live as one

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope some day you'll join us

And the world will live as one

Her singing voice is gentle and powerful, and every word seems to be telling a story about love and hope. Her eyes are shining with determination, and she knows that she is changing the world in her own way.

As the music progressed, the guests in the hall were gradually attracted by Emily's singing. They stopped talking, put down their wine glasses, and focused their eyes on Emily. There was no longer any doubt in their eyes, replaced by a deep resonance and respect.

Emily's performance ended quickly, but her voice and piano seemed to still echo in the hall. After a few seconds of silence, thunderous applause and cheers broke out again. Emily stood up and bowed to thank everyone, with a confident and satisfied smile on her face.

She knew that she had taken the second step to success. In this parallel world, her music will be her most powerful weapon.

Emily stood in the afterglow of the music event, and her eyes met the big shot in the music industry - Marcus Gray. There was a shrewd gleam in his eyes and an elusive smile on the corners of his mouth. Marcus is a pivotal figure in the music industry, and his every move can influence the direction of the entire industry.

"Emily, your performance is impressive." Marcus' voice was low and charming. He stretched out his hand and held it with Emily's.

Emily felt the strength and warmth of his palm, and she smiled and responded: "Thank you, Mr. Grey. It is my honor to receive your appreciation."

Marcus looked Emily over, then he said, "I have a proposal. I'd like you to join my team, and together we can create some music that can truly rock the world."

Emily was excited, but she also felt a little wary. In this unfamiliar world, any opportunity could be a double-edged sword. After all, she had just experienced a lawsuit over copyright disputes not long ago. She replied cautiously: "I am honored to be considered by you, but I would like to know more details about this cooperation."

Marcus nodded, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes. "Of course, we can find a place to talk in detail." He led Emily through the crowd and came to a secluded corner.

This is a small lounge, luxuriously decorated, with some precious music manuscripts and ancient musical instruments hanging on the walls. Marcus motioned Emily to sit down, and then he began to explain his plan in detail.

"I have been looking for a new musical style, one that can transcend cultural and linguistic boundaries and touch everyone's heart." Marcus' voice was full of passion. "I heard your singing and felt the power contained in your music. I believe that we can create unprecedented music together."

Emily listened quietly, her heart full of contradictions. On the one hand, she longed to find her place in this new world, and Marcus' invitation was undoubtedly a great opportunity. On the other hand, she didn't know enough about this parallel world, and she didn't know if there was anything hidden behind this cooperation.

She took a deep breath and decided to put forward her terms. "I appreciate your recognition, but I need time to consider it. At the same time, I hope that our cooperation can be based on the principles of mutual respect and transparency."

Marcus' eyes flashed with surprise, but it was quickly replaced by appreciation. "Of course. I'll give you time, but I hope you can make a decision as soon as possible. The music world of this world is waiting for change, and you, Emily, may be the key."

Emily nodded, she stood up and shook hands with Marcus. "I'll get back to you as soon as possible." Her voice was firm and confident.

Leaving the lounge, Emily felt mixed emotions. She strolled through the halls of the music event, taking in the atmosphere around her. Music, laughter, and conversation intertwined to form a unique symphony. Emily's eyes wandered among the crowd, trying to find clues from everyone's face, looking for the secrets of this world.

Suddenly, her eyes were attracted by a lonely figure. It was a young woman who sat in the corner, drinking quietly, with a deep melancholy in her eyes. Emily was attracted by her temperament, and she decided to walk over and try to talk to her.

"Hello, I'm Emily." She smiled and extended her hand to the woman.

The woman raised her head, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. "Hello, I'm Lily." Her voice was soft and slightly hoarse.

Emily sat across from Lily and they started talking. Lily was a music producer who had a deep understanding and unique insights into music. Her words revealed her disappointment and helplessness with the world's music industry.

"I once dreamed of creating music that could truly touch people's hearts, but now..." There was a hint of bitterness in Lily's voice, "the music industry has been corrupted by commerce and power, and there is no place for true art."

Emily listened to Lily's words, and something resonated within her. She knew she had to make a choice, one that would keep her music pure while also surviving in this new world.

Their conversation lasted for a long time until the music festival came to an end. Emily stood up and said goodbye to Lily. "Thank you for sharing. I will remember your words." There was a hint of determination in her voice.

Lily smiled and nodded. "Good luck, Emily. I'm sure you can find your own way."
