Walking the Path of a Workaholic in Cliché Novels (QT) Chapter 25

Looking at Zhang Ruojun’s crazy expression, the manager was also very helpless: “I really don’t know whether you hate him or love him. Ruojun, if you take him too seriously, it will only affect your own future.”

  “Help me.”

  The agent sighed: “I don’t know whether Ke Yinong took hormones or pills this year. He has changed so much, but it is impossible to say that he faked it.” If it was anything else, it can be said that it is the credit of the operation team. But singing is hard work, so it’s not bad.

  Zhang Ruojun scratched his scalp, and he stood up: “I know! So I didn’t want to compete with him in singing. I wanted to compete with him in popularity!”

  Taking a deep breath, he continued: “You have also seen the music scene these years, it is like a pool of stagnant water. Recently “Singer Songwriter” released a few singers who were active five or six years ago.

  “What does Ke Yinong have? He has no resources, no popularity, and his company is about to close down. This is precisely our opportunity.”

  Zhang Ruojun looked at his manager as if to convince him, or to convince himself, he emphasized again: “He didn’t become popular so quickly. Aren’t there a few capable people? Isn’t he drowning in the crowd? “

  The manager smiled wryly and shook his head: “Ke Yinong’s situation is different.”

  “What’s the difference?” Zhang Ruojun’s voice suddenly became sharp, almost roaring.

  The manager seemed to be looking at a child who was not sensible: “How many of them are as good-looking as him with his singing talent? How many of them are as good-looking as him? How many of them have the same voice as him?” Yes, how many of them can customize songs for themselves?

  “Not to mention his character design, no, that was not a design. He himself is the best weapon for attracting fans!”

  The agent dropped the last straw: “There are no obvious shortcomings, the market is scarce and there is no meal replacement, this is his advantage.” How would they stop the raptor from crossing the river?

  Zhang Ruojun’s face turned pale.

  Seeing him like this, the agent couldn’t bear it: “If you insist on trying, then you have two choices.”

  “What?”

  “The first method is the one in charge of managing artists, our boss. He has a lot of resources and contacts. As long as he wants, you can rush for top traffic at any time. But…can you pay the price he asks for?”

  Zhang Ruojun’s expression changed slightly: “What about the other choice?”

  “The other one is Mr. Zhao who sponsored you at the time.” The agent said.

  “Mr. Zhao is not an insider, but he has a deep background and strong capital. A phone call from him is better than your running away. Although I don’t know why he wanted to help you, at that time funding you was to offend Ke Yinong to death. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”

  “I choose this.”

  At the “I’m Really a Star” variety show live room, the four guests on the screen had already called their curtain call, and they were very reluctant to part with each other. The live broadcast had come to an end.

  “No, it’s not been long since I clicked in…” Netizens wailed, wishing to watch for three days and three nights, but they couldn’t reach into the screen and pinch the host to prevent him from saying the end.

  “This is the end of today’s live broadcast, thank you for your company and support!” The host Ying Qing slightly bent over the camera, and then once again introduced the show’s beneficiary father, “Dazzling Laundry Detergent”, and the live broadcast ended there.

  As soon as the screen flashed, the guests disappeared, and the words Thank you for watching appeared on the net. Followed by the list of employees with some logistics personnel.

  “…Three hours have passed?” Netizens were still immersed in happiness, unwilling to extricate themselves, “I can obviously listen to ten more songs, no, one hundred songs!”

  “You should be modest upstairs, I can hear it forever! Why did I only discover such a treasure as Ke Yinong? I missed a hundred million!”

  “Hey, to be honest, as a ‘Gu Mi’, I only discovered such a treasure of an idol.”

  Compared with those audiences who don’t know anything about Ke Yinong, were they shocked by this wave of talent? What happened this year? Could it be that he participated in some kind of master training class, and now that he graduated, he could come out to take revenge and slap faces?

  “Just because his face has no connotation, isn’t my brother’s most charming part his singing?” The newcomer Yan Party self-criticized, “Of course, appearance is also very important, it is the icing on the cake.”

  “I declare that I am his career fan!”

  Turning his gaze to the background, Tao Ran excitedly grabbed An Yinong’s arm, his eyes lit up, and he spoke faster: “You still say you can’t sing?” If this was called not being able to sing, 90% of the people in the music world would die of shame.

  “Before today, who would have thought that I could still sing?” An Yinong shook his head, stared at Tao Ran, and said, “It depends on human effort.”

  Tao Ran was taken aback for a moment, he always felt that these words were said to himself specially. Tao Ran held his watch-wearing wrist.

  “Brother Ke.” The curly-haired Jin Zhe also came over to say hello to him, with a bright smile on his face, and one couldn’t see that he was still in a state of hostility before.

  As for Lai Qing, he wasn’t so flexible, but he didn’t confront him head-on either. They all knew that after this day, ‘Ke Yinong’ was no longer a tool they could use to create momentum. In the entertainment circle, there was always a clear ‘class’ between the high and the low, and it was only okay to offend him, either because one was stupid or planning to quit the industry.

  An Yinong smiled the whole time and seemed to have a good relationship with everyone, but there were only a few stylists, makeup artists, and a host who really added his social media.

  “How’s the arm?” Tao Ran asked in a low voice, he noticed that An Yinong still showed a pained expression occasionally, but he put it away as soon as the camera swept over him, so no one noticed.

  “I’ll go to the clinic later.” An Yinong also whispered. The original owner wasn’t like him, he hadn’t exercised, and his body was fragile. He also looked around, and said in a lower voice, “I’m going to go through the staff passage, and leave quietly.”

  Tao Ran’s manager was about to come over, and he was already on his way, but Tao Ran said, “I’ll go (to the hospital) with you.”

  An Yinong froze for a moment, then shook his head: “It’s too conspicuous for the two of us to go together.”

  When the live broadcast stopped and the official edited version hadn’t been released yet, those big hands had already entered hard work mode. A small video appeared on some popular forums and websites as quickly as possible. The cover of the video was either an elegant and luxurious little prince sitting in front of the piano or a figure standing on the stage with a golden border.

  The former was beautiful, the latter mysterious. The search volume of “I’m Really a Star” Ke Yinong began to increase significantly. Those music websites were also frequently asked if there were high-definition audio versions of Ke Yinong’s two songs. This was all attracted by singing. Because he sang a slow rock song, he was a minor hit in the small rock circle. After that, the second sad love song also attracted a lot of fans.

  Because of the bundled hype before “My Show, My Way”, everyone who knew of “Ke Yinong” knew that he was rejected because “he can’t sing, an incompetent artist”. Netizens were very curious, “Ke Yinong” was decried as “unable to sing”, so what kind of celebrity mentor could sing better?

  “It was said that it was to select new singers, but I only saw fans of four popular artists controlling the field to hype their beauty, and no one sang. Hehe, it turns out that this is a celebrity mentor who can sing. It’s a sheep’s head selling dog meat, how about changing the name to “F4 Show”?”

  “Reminder in the front row, this singing skill is only visible to fans, non-fans are not allowed to enter.”

  At this time, the sins of the past came back, and the audience not only questioned the vision of the “My Show, My Way” program group but also questioned the ability of the celebrity mentors. The chief director of “I Do My Show” was furious, the celebrity mentors were furious, and the fans of the celebrity mentors were furious.

  Especially Zhang Ruojun’s fans, who asked them to retort to the former assistant of “Ke Yinong”? If ‘Ke Yinong’ did not ‘die’ for a day, they would bear the reputation of ‘bearing the Lord’ for a day.

  “I will never allow this person to continue to suck our brother’s blood!”

  In the eyes of Zhang Ruojun’s most extreme fans, “Ke Yinong” was the big villain who had been suppressing their idol and stealing to suck his blood. They were not only defending their idol but also justice.

  Zhang Ruojun’s fans were like a well-trained army, they divided into several groups, and worked together to suppress ‘Ke Yinong’ everywhere. They complained about the rock ‘noisy’ sung by An Yinong, and the sad love song was ‘stunning’, and then speculated that he disappeared for a year because of plastic surgery.

  These remarks directly pissed off the audience who watched “I’m Really a Star”. They didn’t care about the affairs between singers, but these people should not question their appreciation of music.

  “How many episodes of “My Show, My Way” have you done? What songs have you sung? Have you ever gone to school? Can you recognize the staff? What kind of marketing are you looking for now?”

  Meanwhile, rock lovers joined in. In recent years, a large number of low-quality dance music exclusively provided by traffic singers has occupied the market. How many years had rock lovers waited for such a young artist who could sing rock?

  At this time, whoever touched Ke Yinong would touch their spiritual food. As the flames of war on the Internet intensified, fans of powerful singers also felt a kind of “wolf is coming” urgency: peers are enemies. Fortunately, Ke Yinong’s voice and singing were unique, and his lines were different from other singers. He also had creative ability, so most singers still welcomed him.

  “It’s okay if they don’t welcome them. It’s been a long time since there have been such powerful newcomers in the pop music world. Those in “Singer and Composer” are all pop singers from five or six years ago. I’m really going to die.” Tao Ran sat in the car and flipped through the comments under the video. He was on his way to the airport now, with his agent by his side.

  “I think it’s just average.” The manager said insincerely sour words. This variety show was Ke Yinong’s carnival alone, and no one else could overshadow his limelight.

  The agent also bought Tao Ran’s trending search, but Tao Ran’s topic had long been suppressed and invisible. The agent felt sorry for Tao Ran, this may be the last time he will bid farewell to this circle.

  “You don’t know, you haven’t seen him live.” Tao Ran’s eyes sparkled, and his voice was gentle.

  “If you’ve seen it, where can you watch these videos? He…is a star that even the darkness can’t cover.” This terrible and dark environment couldn’t cover his light.

  The manager thought he was wrong, but when he looked again, he could clearly see fanaticism in Tao Ran’s eyes. They only stayed together for a day and a half, how did this happen?

  “No, I have to tell Mr. Zhao.” The agent thought to himself and carefully sent a text message to report the incident. However, there was no response for a long time, and he didn’t know what happened.
