Chapter 79: Chapter 79: Stranger Chapter 79: Chapter 79: Stranger Liu Lan silently watched Wu Mu on the television.
At first, she thought Wu Mu had crafted a new persona to make money.
But gradually, she began to feel that sothing was off.
If it was just about creating a persona, wasn’t this persona a bit too exaggerated?
She beca restless and stood up to go to the study room, where she turned on the computer to restart the program, dragging the progress bar back to the beginning to watch it again.
Previously, she had been fixated on the idea that Wu Mu was crafting a persona, and everything he perford was fake, so she hadn’t really watched seriously.
Where others found humor and fun, she, biased by her preconceptions, assud it was just a script written by the program team for him to act out.
But now, dropping these preconceived notions, she imdiately noticed sothing was wrong.
Wu Mu’s expressions were too natural.
If it was an act, if it was just a crafted persona, could it really be so natural?
She watched the program from the beginning, occasionally pausing to examine the expressions on the face of this person she found both familiar and strange.
The more she watched, the more she felt the person before her had beco so unfamiliar that she almost couldn’t recognize him anymore.
The ease when borrowing money to take the subway, the casualness of chatting with others while standing guard at the venue, the leisure of asking the supervisor for a restroom break to slack off, and the relaxation when Mo Mo recognized him and even brought him food.
So many details were completely different from the person he was before.
Were these just a persona, or had his true personality changed to this?
What had happened to him during this period?
Liu Lan felt an irritation that things were completely out of her control.
She even couldn’t help wanting to fly to where Wu Mu was, desperate to see him with her own eyes.
Besides the changes in personality and behavior, what puzzled her the most was the change in Wu Mu’s abilities.
On the screen, the program had reached the part where Mo Mo called Wu Mu up to sing on stage.
Sitting in the center of the stage, his hand moving across the guitar.
She knew he was good with the guitar since he often sang to her privately.
But…
“I carry luggage heavier than my body, swimming to the bottom of the Nile…”
“I see several people standing together, they take scissors and remove my luggage…”
Liu Lan stared blankly at his face on the screen, as if trying to see through the screen and understand his heart.
Personality changes could be explained by great experiences and growth.
But how could his singing ability grow so much in such a short ti?
And to improve so significantly.
Although she also liked his previous singing, she really couldn’t say it was about the sa.
The difference was simply too vast.
What on earth had happened to him during this ti?
Liu Lan stared at Wu Mu on the screen for a long ti, then suddenly felt calm inside.
One day, she will know.
She pulled the progress bar back a bit, back to the segnt where he ca on stage.
Liu Lan leaned back in her office chair, listening to his gentle singing, her gaze fixed on the ceiling, her thoughts drifting.
…
In the dormitory of Jiangning University.
Jiang Qian and the others were also rewinding the progress bar, repeatedly listening to Wu Mu’s song.
“The emotion in his singing is really powerful,” Jiang Qian sighed.
Su ng nodded, feeling it was slightly different from the live performance of “Legend” they had heard last ti.
The previous “Legend” was indeed pleasant enough, but its infectiousness couldn’t quite match the current song “I Rember.”
It’s not that “Legend” was not good, just that Wu Mu’s emotions didn’t seem as rich when singing “I Rember.”
When listening to “Legend” before, they would pay attention to the lody, the lyrics, thinking about whom the song was written for.
But now, they had no such thoughts in their minds, just completely imrsed in the song, experiencing the emotions.
Was it sung for his mother, who had passed away?
Su ng watched the barrage on the program thoughtfully.
“I Rember” had been sung previously in a live session by the singer-songwriter, so its aning had been deduced by everyone.
Many fans of the song were explaining its aning in the barrage for viewers who didn’t understand.
Quite a few viewers were moved by Wu Mu’s singing and slowly started to beco fans.
It’s fair to say that although Wu Mu wasn’t deliberately trying to attract fans, his approach was indeed quite effective.
That usual silly fun deanor, then suddenly, he would sincerely show his heart, letting you know beneath his optimistic appearance lie hidden sorrows and scars.
As long as one imrses in his songs, it’s easy to get a refreshed impression of him.
Su ng’s impression was clearly refreshed a bit.
However, this atmosphere didn’t last long.
After the singing, the program hadn’t ended.
Seeing Wu Mu actually ran off to sleep in a five-star hotel and even told the staff they could deduct money made everyone chuckle, returning to the fun-loving atmosphere.
Especially seeing Wu Mu sleep in a five-star hotel while the other guests were looking for cheap accommodations, the suffering made everyone even more amused.
Actually, other guests had also thought about letting the crew deduct 10% to sleep in a better place.
But Zhang Lifeng and Zhang Haoran, while considering it, couldn’t let go of their pride to do such a thing, afraid such tactics would damage their persona and stature.
Wang Xiaotian couldn’t bear to lose that 10% of his money. He found a group dormitory with a bed for fifteen yuan, which was much cheaper.
Lu Yao had never thought of that, but she had her money deducted because a female fan took her ho to sleep.
She naively thought she’d encountered a kind soul.
Of course, whether or not to deduct didn’t really matter since her money had already been depleted.
On the program, it had moved on to the next day’s activities.
Seeing Wu Mu pull a company employee’s card from a box, Jiang Qian and the others were undoubtedly invigorated.
Wu Mu had ntioned last ti that he had self-studied university courses, and people were still debating it.
On one hand, they felt the program crew had no need to make up such a false script. On the other hand, it was really hard to believe Wu Mu possessed such caliber.
Many people were very eager to see Wu Mu personally validate this.
They thought they would have to wait for Wu Mu to appear on other shows to confirm it, but now Star Agency had satisfied their curiosity.
Everyone was speculating what company Wu Mu was applying for and whether he would reveal his real capabilities during the interview.
Amid their speculations, Wu Mu arrived at the entrance of Mingyu Ga Company.
Applying at a ga company?
This… seed even further beyond their expectations?
The difficulty seed even greater than last ti’s quiz.
But for such a profession with strong specialization, how could Wu Mu get in? Surely, just taking a quiz wouldn’t be enough.
The audience’s anticipation instantly picked up.
