Chapter 73 The Kid Makes a Scene
"How did you know? Please tell me!"
During the game, Lin Gengxin finally couldn't help but ask the question.
He's been playing the game and thinking about it for quite a while now.
But I couldn't figure it out. No reporters knew about his trip to Mongolia, and he didn't keep up with his fans' schedules. How could Xu Jinyan know?
The moment the question was asked, the others were surprised. So, you two weren't just putting on an act?
Xu Jinyan scoffed, "Lin Gou, you're surrounded by my people. Remember to keep one eye open when you sleep from now on!"
Everyone laughed, but Yang Mi felt a strange sense of familiarity. She thought for a moment and said, "That's right, it's just like our chat at the airport last time."
Xu Jinyan is a bit mysterious!
My sister is really curious!
She asked, "Jinyan, what have you been busy with lately?"
"What else can I do? Read novels!"
"You're still reading 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' even though it's finished?"
"I have to write the theme song for the TV series adapted from the novel."
"..."
Baby exclaimed, "I really envy Jinyan's life; her interests and career are in sync."
Xu Jinyan laughed and said, "I'm about to be on a variety show, and my manager has been urging me to get back to it."
Chen He: "How about coming to our show 'Five Ha'? Jin Yan, you're so talented, you'd be perfect for variety shows."
"Sure, I had dinner with Lu Han before, he'll definitely welcome me."
Chen He was surprised. Xu Jinyan had even eaten with Lu Han before. It seemed like they had a pretty good relationship.
Lu Han: A friendship that transcends life and death!
"Damn, he died again."
Lin Gengxin grumbled and cursed.
But after a while, the character revived but didn't move, as if he had been disconnected.
Then the other four started swearing.
In the end, unsurprisingly, they lost the game, and during the settlement, each person filed a report.
Back in the game preparation room, just as they were about to continue insulting Lin Gou, he actually came back again.
He exclaimed excitedly, "Be careful what you say! It's trending! Look at the trending topics! Someone's dissing you, hahaha!"
"Did you just stop playing your game to check my trending topics?"
"Don't log off. Use another device to check the trending topics, and then share your thoughts with us. Hahaha..."
Upon hearing this, everyone stopped trying to exit and tacitly went to retrieve other equipment.
Xu Jinyan didn't care. He didn't have any scandals, and if anything bad had happened, Lin Wanqing would have contacted him long ago.
He checked the trending topics and, lo and behold, it was the kid who started it.
In the latest episode of the music variety show "The Voice of China," music critic Liang Yuan and Lil Ghost (Wang Linkai) had a battle during the judges' comments segment.
Click to watch the video:
Liang Yuan raised the microphone and began to speak:
"Wang Linkai, I have to talk to you. In this musical performance, your rap was not cool at all. You were too focused on the poses and were just going through the motions. You lacked substance and mistakenly took the alternative as high-class."
"I don't know if you've heard Xu Jinyan's 'Huo Yuanjia'. This song also has rap, and although the pace isn't fast, Xu Jinyan's rhythm is crisp and clean, and it has a traditional Chinese style..."
However, before he could finish speaking, Wang Linkai interrupted him, his face full of incomprehension:
"Is a song like 'Huo Yuanjia' considered rap?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the room fell silent.
The audience and judges looked at each other in bewilderment.
Then everyone stared in disbelief at the young man on stage, thinking that he was truly... Thai hot.
Why drag Xu Jinyan into this when they haven't provoked you? Do you think you can mess with Xu Jinyan?
Black and red isn't black in this way!
Wang Linkai: Who said he didn't provoke me? He lacks respect for me.
Liang Yuan took a deep breath; he needed to clear himself of the situation first.
"Wang Linkai, I hope we can have an open discussion about music. Did you set the standards for evaluating rap?"
Wang Linkai raised the microphone and said nonchalantly, "Is it any of your business?"
"Rap is about being yourself. Don't use Xu Jinyan's standards to define me. You can't change me, understand?"
Liang Yuan: "..."
Looking at the arrogant and domineering Xiao Gui... no, Ghost King Wang Linkai on stage, everyone had one thought: this episode is going to be super hot!
#Xu Jinyan and Wang Linkai#
#Wang Linkai Liang Yuan#
#Is "Fearless" considered rap?#
#Wang Linkai: Don't use Xu Jinyan's standards to define me#
#Wang Linkai: Is it any of your business?#
A series of related terms trended on social media, immediately causing a huge uproar online.
Xu Jinyan rose to prominence too quickly and encountered no setbacks. Apart from Hua Chenyu, who was desperately trying to keep him tied to her side, he had no rivals at all.
Unexpectedly, the Ghost King spoke up and attacked Xu Jinyan: "You call those few lines of dialogue from 'Huo Yuanjia' rap?"
Most netizens' first reaction wasn't anger, but rather a sense of amusement.
No one would argue with him about why "Huo Yuanjia" is considered rap, because that would make them seem low-class.
Music critic Liang Yuan clearly suffered from being too cultured during the program.
As for Xu Jinyan's fans, they are not angry. On the one hand, they are all relatively easygoing, and their fans are somewhat like their idol.
In addition, the enemy was too weak, failing to arouse their desire to fight.
Xu Jinyan's achievements are simply too outstanding. In contrast, look at Xiao Gui's representative works: "Air Guitar," "Crescent Moon Sky," "Thai Pants Hot"...
Why get angry at an idol?
Instead, they were looking forward to seeing how Xu Jinyan would respond.
So they all rushed to leave comments in Xu Jinyan's comment section:
"Does 'Huo Yuanjia' count as rap? Tell me!"
"Let me make this clear first, I'm not one to stir up trouble, but I certainly wouldn't tolerate it if it happened to me."
"Putting aside the facts for now, you need to look at your own problems to see how you can be so brazenly provoked."
"To be honest, I think Wang Linkai has some merit. We shouldn't use Xu Jinyan's standards to judge rap."
"Upstairs is an idiot, confirmed." *999
"..."
After reading the entire content, Xu Jinyan received a call from Lin Wanqing, who asked in a relaxed tone, "Jinyan, have you seen the trending topics?"
"I've seen it."
"Do you have any thoughts?"
"...Thai pants hot."
"Pfft, hahaha..."
"Wanqing, can you help me see if there are any suitable music variety shows? I'm about to start showing off!"
"..."
Xu Jinyan returned to the game room and, as expected, saw that the other players were still there, waiting for him.
They were having a lively conversation, because this was purely a clown trying to scam someone, and when Xu Jinyan came in, they went straight to him and asked:
"Teacher Xu, do you even know how to rap?"
The first thing we heard was Lin Gengxin's voice.
Xu Jinyan: "...Is it any of your business?"
The others laughed heartily, and you could even hear Chen He clapping and Baby screaming.
Baby asked curiously, "Jinyan, how are you feeling right now?"
Xu Jinyan: "I didn't really feel anything. Actually, I met him before, backstage at the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala on a TV station. He said, 'Hey, bro. Have you been listening to rap lately?'"
Chen He: "And then, what did you say?"
"I mentioned that I've been listening to Guo Degang's rap lately..."
"Ha ha ha ha"
Xu Jinyan: "You guys laughed, but he didn't. He probably felt that I didn't respect him."
Yang Mi's heart skipped a beat. Backstage at a TV gala? She remembered the dressing room from that day.
She asked curiously, "So how do you plan to handle this?"
Xu Jinyan: "...Have you guys been listening to rap lately?"
"Haha, you're not going to write a rap song in response to him, are you?"
"Of course, we have to show him what real rap is all about."
Lin Gengxin: "What exactly is real rap?"
"Real rap is: ...hoo wow, give me a goo goo~"
Lin Gengxin: Damn it!
