Walking the Path of a Workaholic in Cliché Novels (QT) Chapter 33

The appearance of Teacher Jin was just the beginning.

     “If academic qualifications must be linked to ability, then it seems that I shouldn’t be standing here without a primary school education.” Old Gao, a well-known teacher in China, then stood up and directly @’Ke Yinong’s former manager and the artists who fished in troubled waters .

     “How many people are engaged in their own jobs after graduation? I’m afraid it’s less than 30%. So, if a male polytechnician turns into a singer and learns music theory and piano from scratch, what’s the problem?”

     The arranger teacher known as Old Gao did not have a primary school education. His family was poor and could not support him to continue his studies. However, Old Gao, who was born with an excellent sense of music, showed his amazing talent as soon as he came into contact with the arranger, and he was also very talented. He worked hard, even if he was successful, he was still learning.

     “Jealous mediocre people cannot see the advantages in others worlds.'” Old Gao’s sarcasm could be seen between the lines.

     Everyone was surprised, where did the friendship between Ke Yinong and these two people come from? At least Teacher Jin didn’t mention them by name. Old Gao almost pointed at those people and called them “jealous and mediocre.”

     Young netizens didn’t know that Old Gao also suffered such a blow from public opinion when he was young. Because of his low education and his background as a farmer, others refused to believe in his ability and accused him of stealing other people’s works. To prove himself, Old Gao almost jumped from the building.

     He knew too well the frustration of being unable to argue, so he couldn’t hold his breath at this time. One can tell whether a person was capable or not by testing it out. Old Gao and An Yinong chatted all afternoon and even tried out three perfume promotion songs. He was convinced that An Yinong was the original author. Because only the original author would be so familiar with his own music that he could adapt it into different styles at will.

     “Why do so many people speak for Ke Yinong? The power of capital is so powerful that even people who have no knowledge of music theory can be praised as original geniuses.” Unwilling to give up, the navy rushed to Old Gao’s side.

     “Why is Ke Yinong, an amateur, able to compose lyrics and music? Nonsense, he has outstanding talent in music theory! He works hard enough! If a pond uses its own size to measure a river, if you have to say ‘I don’t believe it’, this is like sitting in a well and looking at the sky.”

     Lao Gao went crazy and the netizens were stunned. Even An Yinong was surprised. He didn’t speak before, firstly, others wouldn’t listen to his excuse, and secondly, he had a chance to prove himself. There was a link in “Singer-Songwriter” that tested the ability of singer-songwriters.

     To talk about grievances, it meant being scolded for a few days, and there was no more loss.  But he didn’t expect that in this situation, these two seniors would stand up and speak for him. They only met once.

     “I went to visit them. I just hope that when the sewage comes, they will be willing to give me a chance and will not easily exclude me from the guest list.” An Yinong even felt that he was a little utilitarian and felt sorry for the attention of these people.

     “Zhao Ze, that piece of trash, doesn’t care about slandering me, but he also involves others.”

     Feeling so annoyed, he put on his coat and went directly to a nearby piano store: “Is it convenient for me to borrow your piano for the live broadcast?” He took out his wallet and was prepared to give money.

     The store owner recognized him and quickly said: “No, no, no, you can use it as you like.”

     An Yinong, who had never liked speaking on the Internet, clicked to open his own account. He couldn’t just watch the two seniors charge into battle. After all, this was his business and he had to come out as well.

     An Yinong did not play tricks. He applied for a live broadcast room and would play the piano live: “You order, I will play.” Hold up, when have netizens ever seen such an upright artist? He responded live on air even if they disagreed.

     “I pick “Flight of the Bumblebee.” The netizen directly clicked a difficult piano song to show off his skills. The music, timbre, and layering were not understood by the masses, so they just depend on hand speed.

     “OK.” An Yinong gestured to the camera, placing his hands on the piano keys.

     The piano was the first instrument An Yinong came into contact with, and it was also the instrument he practiced the most, so he had played the song “Flight of the Bumblebee” countless times.

     The buzz of “Flight of the Bumblebee” sounded in the piano store, and this extremely fast-paced piano sound attracted some passers-by outside.They curiously approached and found that the person playing the piano was an artist. They all took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

     The audience watching the live broadcast also pricked up their ears. Most of them didn’t know much about music. They could only see An Yinong’s fingers jumping so fast that there was almost an afterimage, and they could also hear the scalp-numbing sound of wild bees flying.

     “I don’t know much about piano, but Ke Yinong doesn’t look like a novice.”

     “Not only is he not a novice, but he has practiced hard. The “Flight of the Bumblebee” he plays is not just a show of skill. You can feel the crescendo and diminution of the melody.”

     “He plays better than me. I’ve been studying piano for ten years.”

     This face-slap live broadcast quickly attracted countless viewers, who were noisy and discussing An Yinong’s level. But no one thought that he was a novice who had just learned music notation. After that, An Yinong played several difficult piano pieces in succession, thoroughly proving his ability. There were cheers at the piano store’s door.

     After achieving his goal, An Yinong said goodbye to the kind-hearted music store owner and enthusiastic onlookers. He returned home and directly @former agent:

     “We are all adults. Don’t be pretentious. Tell us, what did the other party promise? Money or resources? It’s a pity that your business ability will turn beautiful jade into rotten wood.”

     Netizens were used to seeing artists criticizing others, making shady remarks, and using metaphors. This was the first time they had seen such direct confrontation. Look at what this means. Someone offered an irresistible benefit and asked the former manager to come forward. If they dig deeper, who knows what kind of deep-water monster would appear.

     The melon had been peeled and brought to their mouth. Should they eat it or eat it? They were all particularly curious about who was going to such great lengths to hack Ke Yinong. Their hearts were as itchy as a cat scratching, and they really wanted to know. The former manager pretended to be dead and An Yinong refused to return. Netizens were very upset.

     An Yinong, who was sitting at the desk, was silent for a long time and then turned on the computer.

     “Host, what do you want to do?” the system asked.

     “I checked and found out that this malicious speculation has been forwarded five hundred times. How can I sue someone who has damaged my reputation?”

     System:……

     Not long after, ‘Ke Yinong’s agent received an email, which contained An Yinong’s final warning to him from a law firm. An Yinong asked him to immediately apologize for his untrue remarks, otherwise he would have to wait to see him in court. He even found a lawyer.

     “If you want to gain a foothold here, you only have to rely on your own work ability. Or are you planning to buy out your future with a quick sum of money?” The cold words hit the former agent.

     “This guy…” The former manager became more and more panicked as he thought about it. He called Zhao Ze, but Zhao Ze’s cell phone kept showing that he was on a call.

     “Who is it? The call is not over yet?”

     Zhao Ze at this time was listening to An Yinong.

     “A person like you has a steel jungle living in his mind, right? The law of the jungle? It’s not enough to sell people by the pound. You also have to sell the person’s soul by the pound. In your eyes, is a human being a human being? A human being is just an animal. If you always objectify others and don’t respect people, it’s not worth respect from others.”

     The man’s melodious voice came from the mobile phone. Was it possible for a singer to curse so well?

     “That’s the kind of person I am, a person who smells like copper, is cold and harsh, and likes to objectify others. So are you willing to change me?” Zhao Ze made good use of his own advantages, and he tried to make people soft-hearted.

     “No way, I’m not a garbage collector.”

     “How did you know it was me?” Zhao Ze, who was accused of being ‘trash’, was not angry. He was more curious about the extent of An Yinong’s knowledge and whether he even knew about the poisoning.

     “If you don’t want others to know, you have to do nothing.”

     Listening to the sound of gnashing teeth on the other end, the smile on Zhao Ze’s face became even more frivolous: “The entertainment industry is not a place where you can be seen if you work hard. If you have the ability, you must have the capital to support it. Promise me, and my resources are yours.”

     “Don’t worry, this trick won’t work on me.”

     Zhao Ze pressed forward step by step: “So, it doesn’t matter if your career is ruined? It doesn’t matter if the people around you are implicated?”

     “Don’t treat people as human beings and play with people’s hearts. It’s pleasant, right? I can give my life to protect my career, but can you also give your life to deal with me? If you don’t have such determination, I advise you to take care of yourself. The consequences of getting me angry are things you don’t want to see!”

     Zhao Ze looked at the cell phone that had stopped talking and said to himself: “But I really like you a little bit. Please teach me how to impress someone without money or means?”…It wouldn’t stop like this. The more difficult it is, the more he wants to get it.

     An Yinong’s room.

     “Host, when you were on the phone with him just now, the regret value that had not been touched for a long time suddenly broke through 60, and now it has soared to 72.” The system held its face: What happened?

     In the past, those hosts had to be entangled in love and hate with the scumbag for a long time, and they had to lose their virginity and love to get so much regret. The host was there just with a phone call?

     “So, I’ve passed the test?”

     “Yes! Host, you are free. From now on, you don’t have to deal with that lunatic. You can do whatever you want!” The system was even more excited than An Yinong.

     An Yinong: …I didn’t pay attention to him in the first place.

     After receiving the answer he wanted, An Yinong had mixed feelings, speechless and disgusted: “His regret is really cheap.”

     He put down the phone and turned on the computer again. However, he discovered that “Singer-Songwriter” had announced the list of guests for the next flight: Zhang Ruojun and An Yinong.

     Public opinion on the Internet was pretty good, but the controversy had shifted to Zhang Ruojun. And there was a legitimate reason for the two celebrities to come out to speak for An Yinong – because they are about to enter a variety show.

     An Yinong found traces of the trolls in the comments. They were hyping Zhang Ruojun’s entry into “Singer-Songwriter” in order to enhance his reputation. It’s just that the final result was counterproductive.

     “Is a high-quality program like “Singer-Songwriter” going to be destroyed by capital?” Netizens were very angry. A new wave of storm was brewing, but this time the eye of the storm was not An Yinong.

     “Singer-Songwriter” has always rejected popular singers before, but Zhang Ruojun broke this rule. In comparison, at least An Yinong’s singing skills are completely fine.

     “Zhao Ze is right about what he said. The entertainment industry is not a place where you can be seen if you work hard. But this time it was really a coincidence and smooth, as if there was an invisible hand helping me.”

     An Yinong was convinced that someone was helping him, and he thought hard: “But who could it be?”

     The system looked at his host who was very uneasy and wondered: “Isn’t this a good thing?”

     But An Yinong shook his head: “You don’t know if this is good intention or a greater malice. It’s like the bait thrown by a hunter, thinking it will save his life, but he didn’t expect it to cost his life.”

     “…” The system always feels that the host has a deep psychological shadow on this.

     After that day, the Internet world was relatively calm. An Yinong went to visit the two teachers. They would explain some of the program procedures and give him guidance on how to make better music.

     “Songs are like poems. They have inspiration, and it is easier to write spiritually. When you have to write according to rules, and what you want to say can give people a completely different feeling. Songs can move people, this thing is the true inner feelings of the composer and lyricist.”

     Sometimes they also shared singing skills with An Yinong. “In the show, you will be exposed to various styles of music, but there must be some that you are good at and some that you are not good at. Should you just give up on the music that you are not good at? No.

     “Here’s a little tip. It’s like an actor playing a role. How can you get into the role faster? Find the common ground between the character and yourself. The same goes for singing. You look for the part where the song fits you and use it as a guide. An entry point.”

     An Yinong studied with them seriously. Except that he did not have the title of teacher and student, he treated them like real students and teachers, and it was the ancient version.

     Teacher Jin wanted to accept him as his student, so he secretly said to Lu Yu: “Little Yu, Yinong is really a good kid. He is careful, considerate, and respectful. He came to my place several times, and the little girl next door secretly came to visit.”

     “Uncle Jin, I…”

     “Don’t fool me. You are not relatives, not friends, but you came to me for him. How dare you say that you have no thoughts?”

     Lu Yu didn’t say anything, and indirectly acquiesced. He said seriously: “Uncle, I have been in this circle for so many years, and the bridges I have walked are longer than the roads you have walked. What haven’t you seen? You just need to be serious and take the If you just go with the attitude of getting along with each other for a lifetime, then that’s okay.”

     Same-sex marriage was frowned upon these days, and the other was a straight man. When he said this, he really cared about his descendants.

     Lu Yu couldn’t laugh or cry on the other end: “He just regards me as his boss.”

     “If you help someone but don’t tell them, how will they know? If you do good things, you have to tell them.”

     “I have to wait until the mess here is sorted out. By the way, Uncle Jin, I have changed my surname back to my mother’s name. From now on, you can call me Tang Yu.”
