“What are you saying? You invited Fan to appear at your concert? Are you crazy?”
“He accepted? Is he crazy too?”
“Big sister Bai, are you trying to ruin your singing career and beco an actress?”
ng Cai Wei, who had entered the crew a bit earlier than planned noticed Bai Zhi’s ssage and imdiately called her. Her voice was so excited that it scared the assistant who was bringing her breakfast.
“Why are you talking so loud?”
Bai Zhi who was still half asleep yawned and said, “Fan’s good at singing, and I happen to be missing a person. What’s wrong with asking him?! Besides, this concert is about playing with music and doesn’t specify they have to be professional singers. It makes happy, and can fulfill my contract with Tiger Cat streams.”
“Fan’s singing sounds good?” ng Cai Wei said incredulously. “What happened to your ears? His throat sounds like a broken bell, how can he sing well? Let tell you, there is no music cell in our family!”
“That’s you, don’t drag Fan into this, Fan’s musical talent is almost too good!” Bai Zhi yawned again and continued, “I’m just gonna borrow your brother for a bit, don’t be so worked up. Are you worried Fan is going to enter the entertainnt industry? It’s just one concert, and a small scale one too. It’ll be the sa as when he streams. Anyways, I’m going back to bed for a bit, I still have rehearsal later today!”
At this, she hung up the receiver and went back to sleep.
“What’s going on?”
ng Cai Wei was a little stunned. Imdiately, she called ng Fan.
ng Fan just finished running, showered and was getting ready to eat breakfast. Seeing ng Cai Wei was calling, he answered the phone. Hearing that it was related to Bai Zhi’s concert, he knew that ng Cai Wei was going to call him sooner or later regarding it and had long already made up his explanation. “I thought it sounded fun so I accepted.”
“What do you an fun? Bai Zhi said you’re good at singing, what’s up with that? When were you good at singing?” ng Cai Wei asked.
“What, just because I can’t sing doesn’t an I can’t practice until it sounds good!”
Yes. This was ng Fan’s explanation after thoughtful consideration.
ng Cai Wei didn’t believe him for a second.
“ng Fan, I noticed you’ve been really strange recently! Just wait, when I have ti, I’m going to thoroughly interrogate you!”
ng Cai Wei angrily hung up the receiver.
“This temper, I haven’t even told her about the studio.”
ng Fan smiled bitterly and headed to class after finishing his breakfast.
He had arranged to eat lunch with Wu Tong. She had washed and cleaned his thermos and brought it back for him, with an extra apple inside it. According to her, it couldn’t be returned empty.
As they ate, ng Fan told her about Bai Zhi inviting him to her concert and asked Wu Tong if she wanted to attend his afternoon rehearsal.
“I have class in the afternoon. When’s the concert? I’ll go… cheer you on crazily.”
Wu Tong already knew of Bai Zhi and ng Cai Wei’s relationship, and she’d t Bai Zhi too. Although she didn’t watch ng Fan’s stream yesterday, she had recorded the VOD and watched it later, so she knew ng Fan could sing. After discovering this, she was a bit surprised but did not doubt his abilities.
Curiously, she asked, “Are you trying to break into the entertainnt industry?”
ng Fan shook his head. “I just think it’s fun, I didn’t think about it that much.”
Wu Tong smiled. “It’s said that everyone’s life is a ga. So people are in easy mode, others are in hard mode, and so are in random mode. You’re in custom mode.”
A thought suddenly flashed through his head as he gazed at Wu Tong, saying genuinely, “It depends on what it is. Regarding so things, I can choose to get by in easy mode but sohow ended up doing it in hard. Because only in difficult mode can you unlock the hidden plot.”
Wu Tong paused for a mont, then laughed. “Are you flirting with ?”
ng Fan was defeated.
Wu Tong pretended to inadvertently move her loose hair behind her ears, and as her fingers brushed passed, she felt her ears heating up.
Bai Zhi’s concert wasn’t at the Huanglong gymnasium, but at the Hangzhou Concert Hall. It was a bit far from Huaxia art academy, so when ng Fan headed over after eating, it was already 1:00 pm.
At the ti, Bai Zhi was already there in addition to so others as well. Aside from the band and the staff, and a singer that looked familiar but ng Fan couldn’t na until Bai Zhi introduced her, ng Fan had searched up everyone else on his live stream aid and roughly checked them out.
This female singer’s na was Tao Tao, a relatively easy to rember na. ng Fan still couldn’t rember her, probably because she wasn’t very famous. However, he did rember listening to so of her songs.
ng Fan noticed this Tao Tao was an independent musician. She wrote her own songs and composed her own music. As for her singing… When ng Fan arrived, she’d been rehearsing. Listening to a few verses, he decided her vocal skills were good. She was relatively good looking too and seed to be the artistic indie type. She probably wasn’t famous then because her music style catered to a relatively small audience.
ng Fan was indeed an outsider to the industry. In this business, there were way too many people who were attractive and can sing well, yet very few that actually blew up.
Gold will always find a way to shine?
Yeah right.
More like gold will always find a way to be spent.
Of course, the fa he was referring to was a high degree of national fa. In reality, Tao Tao was quite famous within a certain range. No matter what, even ng Fan has heard several of her songs.
Bai Zhi then took ng Fan to et the live band responsible for accompanint. They were all very experienced, and although there weren’t any big na mbers in the band, they were still very well known among the music circle.
Of course, the group was very polite towards ng Fan. Before his arrival, Bai Zhi had told them of the guest coming to the concert today. He wasn’t a celebrity, but her cousin who was a strear.
Bai Zhi wouldn’t allow ng Fan to co across any awkward situations. She had to tell everyone on site about her good relationship with ng Fan.
ng Fan was going to sing two songs at the concert. One was “The rest of our life” that had been recomnded by Bai Zhi. This song was famous, and easily resonates with the audience, so people will react regardless; the other song was Bai Zhi’s song, “Long Term Plan”, which they would sing together.
ng Fan’s focus during the rehearsal was on this duet. As for “The Rest of our life”, he just had to polish it with the band.
At the mont, it was Tao Tao’s turn to rehearse. ng Fan had nothing to do at the mont, so he took out his phone and entered his stream after asking Bai Zhi for permission.
Long before he arrived, ng Fan had announced in his stream header that there would be a surprise in this afternoon’s stream.
Seeing the reminder of ng Fan’s stream, several fickle netizens who followed his live broadcast entered the channel. After entering, they saw ng Fan standing in a big concert hall. The sound of a band playing on stage and a singer could be heard.
“What’s going on?”
“What’s he playing today, is he taking us to watch a performance?”
Then the fickle netizens saw a beautiful woman appear in the stream.
“What?”
The netizens recognized her imdiately, and it was Bai Zhi!
Bai Zhi was a nationally famous female celebrity!
“What’s going on?”
“Hello everyone.”
Bai Zhi waved at the cara and smiled. “In four days, I have a concert in Hangzhou. Your ng host will be my guest. When the ti cos, the concert will be stread on the Tiger Cat platform, so please co watch us and give us your support.”
She had actually used ng Fan’s stream channel to promote herself.
Of course, it hadn’t just been for self-promotion; it was mostly to help ng Fan.
