Chapter 168: Chapter 168: It Turns Out Everything My Mom Said Was True Chapter 168: Chapter 168: It Turns Out Everything My Mom Said Was True Zhang Li and her best friend Han Yan watched the screen, their heads down in silence, breathless as they were imrsed in their own world, fixated on the boy who was absorbed in his piano playing.
Wu Mu’s inherently fragnted aura, set against the lancholy strains of Pachelbel’s Canon, seed all the more heart-wrenching.
Especially when contrasted with Wu Mu’s usual jovial deanor… it was a total fan-tornting tactic!
This was the third point of attraction in Wu Mu’s show.
He always managed to surprise you when you thought he was happy and enjoying a good ti, suddenly revealing a glimpse into his inner world.
This overly apparent contrast made you feel that this star wasn’t just another carefree, superficial celebrity; he had a rich emotional life and complex, genuine sentints that made you helplessly worry about the story behind him and how he ca to be this way.
Of course, one of the reasons was also Wu Mu’s strikingly good looks…
Han Yan could hardly hold back, “Did he ever really get over it?”
You’d think he was carefree all the ti, but once it ca to singing or performing, doubts would resurface about whether he had truly moved on.
Ah, and just when you harbored these doubts, he’d once again act in a way that told you he didn’t give a damn about any troubles or sorrows.
After playing the guitar, Wu Mu quickly stood up and confronted the temperantal French director with a face-off.
Seeing Wu Mu acting as if nothing was wrong, Zhang Li and Han Yan were left speechless.
Han Yan couldn’t resist opening the live comnts to see what everyone was saying.
“Wu is such a badass, daring to confront a French director who’s won gold awards.”
“After his career collapse, he really doesn’t hold back against anyone, never suffocating his words.”
“Wu Mu’s acting is kinda impressive, didn’t expect him to perform so splendidly.”
“That piece of music was even more amazing! So delightful to listen to!”
“Is it just delightful? As a music major, I’m bowing down. I didn’t believe it when Yu Ke said Wu’s piece was innovative, but after listening… turns out I’m the clown!”
“I study piano and initially ca for Yu Ke, but after watching, I just want to ask, who is this deity!”
It was all praise for Wu Mu’s defiance of the director and his music, quite enjoyable to read, but not what Han Yan was looking for.
She scrolled down to the live comnts section of the show and finally found what she wanted to see.
“Alas, even though I’m no longer a fan, seeing Wu Mu just now, it really hurt, although he never says it, those of us who have followed him from the beginning know his past wasn’t happy. Just now, I couldn’t help but feel a bit of heartache for him again.”
“Being an old fan from the start, I’ve seen his transformation through three phases. I still rember his initial silence and loneliness upon debut. I liked his positivity and effort after shaking off the lancholy but am even happier to see his current joy and freedom. I don’t know exactly what he’s experienced, but I’m glad he’s moved on, and I love seeing him happy on the show.”
“Even as an anti-fan who still can’t forgive him, I have to say, disgusting as his career collapse was, it led to a real transformation. I hope he stays happy.”
Han Yan finally felt like she found soone speaking her mind, letting out a long sigh of relief.
As one of Wu Mu’s anti-fans, she truly felt a bit of distress and heartache seeing him like that.
Although she usually couldn’t wait for this scumbag to fade into obscurity, if it ant he’d revert to his past self…
Let it be then.
No need to go back to the past, wishing him eternal happiness.
…
On the other side, at Hanhai Light and Shadow Production Company.
Yang Rongfa frowned slightly as he watched Wu Mu mocking Matthew on the TV screen.
This guy seed troubleso, showing such an attitude towards a director?
He subconsciously glanced at Wang Ren beside him, curious about his reaction.
Wang Ren’s directing style was quite similar to that of Matthew’s, both featuring the propensity to do take after take. The only difference was that Wang Ren wasn’t as prone to yelling, which was a bit better.
But even so, who knows how many stars in the circle swore they’d never work with him again and managed to burn through their company’s money.
Wang Ren remained his usual silent self, just quietly watching the screen.
After several seconds, Yang Rongfa spoke out rather unexpectedly, “Wu Mu is really suited for these kinds of broken characters.”
Who wanted to ask about that.
Yang Rongfa frowned and just asked directly, “How do you feel about his music piece?”
After thinking for a while, Wang Ren replied, “It’s pleasant to listen to, and it fits well with the plot.”
Yes, this was what Yang Rongfa felt as well. He hadn’t expected Wu Mu to go to director Matthew’s film crew in the new program and even compose such an apt song for them.
That allayed most of his concerns about whether Wu Mu could write an OST or not.
Even if he considered his own company’s project of utmost importance, he wouldn’t dare claim it could overshadow a project from an internationally acclaid film director.
After all, it was just a series, and here was an esteed director begging Wu Mu for the rights to use his music. If they still doubted Wu Mu’s capabilities, it would be rather pretentious.
Yang Rongfa finally made up his mind, “Let’s go with Wu Mu!”
…
Yu Jiajia was also staring at Wu Mu on the screen, bewildered.
Huh?
Isn’t this guy just a young, fresh-faced celebrity?
How does he have this kind of talent for composing?
That piece of music she just heard, she couldn’t help but rewind and listen to it several tis!
The piece, coupled with his performance just now, really had such a powerful impact!
She had initially been looking forward to the ga segnt that everyone was talking about in the forum, but who knew that once she started watching, she beca so engrossed.
Was this young, fresh-faced celebrity really the sa person as that disreputable idol she had heard rumors about?
The program was fun, sure, but it also showcased real talent…
And it didn’t stop there.
Soon it was the second day, and Wu Mu was singing “Numb” in a bar.
“I’ve beco so tired of being what you want to be.”
“Beneath the facade of pale, is a faith gone astray…”
Holy shit!
Was this the sa traffic star who sang those songs on the Farewell album?
What kind of level is this!
Watching Wu Mu screaming on the screen, even through the monitor, she felt a rush of adrenaline, as if her whole body was heating up.
…So it was true what her mom said that this guy’s songs were better than the silly ones she listened to.
At this very mont, Yu Jiajia was seriously confused. She had always thought this guy was just another talentless pretty-boy idol, but… this is talentless?
She couldn’t help herself from wanting to search for those songs her mom had asked her to download to see what they were like.
The ga segnt hadn’t even started, and her worldview had already been refreshed by this idol fresh at.
