Chapter 125: Cheng Ran: Am I going to be famous? (Two in one)
The song "Sunny Day" captures the youth of many people.

No one expected that such an ordinary program would bring such a surprise, and such an amazing song was actually original.

The audience applauded continuously, while Chu Ze and the other two shook their heads.

"Oh no, he really got it right." Lu Zihao was very unhappy when he heard the applause around him.

"What should I do? How am I going to make fun of him later? I have already prepared the lyrics." Yu Yang said.

"There's no other way. He's too powerful now and it's difficult to deal with him. Let's retreat first and think long and hard." Chu Ze waved his hand.

The three of them quickly withdrew from the battlefield.

Backstage, Cheng Ran gradually lost himself in the endless applause.

"Kids, did you see how heroic I was just now?" He quickly took out his cell phone and sent a message to the group.

Chu Ze: “I didn’t see it.”

Lu Zihao: "Who are you?"

Yu Yang: "Don't disturb me."

Cheng Ran looked at the three of them's responses, smiled crookedly, and felt no emotion in his heart.

Oh, I'm jealous and sour.

These guys really can't stand seeing their buddies doing well, so they deliberately challenge me.

Seeing his brothers living a miserable life was as painful as killing himself, and he understood this feeling very well. He never expected that this time it would be his turn to be the brother who lived a good life.

It turns out that there is reincarnation in the world.

It's his turn to be the protagonist.

It feels good to pretend to be cool, but why don’t any girls take the initiative to add me on WeChat?

My buddy has been wandering around backstage for quite some time.

Who?

Don't be shy.

Sisters, come and throw yourself into your brother’s arms!

It's a pity that ideals are full, and reality is very skinny.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Cheng Ran stayed at the scene until the end of the party. When the crowd dispersed and almost everyone left, no one came to chat with him.

Cheng Ran, who was full of vigor and vitality when he first stepped down from the stage, gradually began to squat in a corner and doubt his life, and finally returned to the dormitory in a dejected and dusty state.

"Hey, Ranzi, have you added a few girls on WeChat?" Lu Zihao asked as he saw Cheng Ran opening the door and coming back.

"Yes, are there any schoolgirls trying to chat with you?" Yu Yang also turned around and asked.

"Yes, yes... a lot, a lot." Cheng Ran felt guilty and coughed dryly.

"How much is a lot?" Lu Zihao asked.

"Can't you see I just came back now? There were just too many girls trying to chat up me and I couldn't add them all. If I hadn't found a way to slip out later, I probably wouldn't have come back tonight." Cheng Ran puffed out his chest and waved his hands, pretending to be serious.

"Then show us your glorious achievements." Yu Yang said.

"Haha, you want to take the opportunity to steal the girl's WeChat from me, right? I can't show it to you. I'm going to take a shower now." Cheng Ran quickly changed the subject, found an excuse and went into the bathroom.

No, if I keep pretending I’ll be exposed.

Lu Zihao and Yu Yang watched Cheng Ran quickly go into the bathroom in a somewhat embarrassed state. They looked at each other and understood...

If the results were really impressive, this guy's tail would have been up in the air by now.

I guess the first thing he would say when he gets back would be: How did you know that a pretty schoolgirl added me on WeChat?
And how can you let it go without bragging to them in detail about this for a few hours?
Will you still have time to take a shower?
Happy.

It's comfortable, it's comfortable.

Since the brothers couldn't drive the Land Rover, they could sleep well this time.

Of course, they didn’t know whether Cheng Ran could sleep tonight.

……

Two days later, when everyone thought the evening party was over...

At night, Chu Ze was lying in bed when he suddenly received a video link forwarded by Xia Anruo.

"What is this?" Chu Ze asked curiously.

"You'll know when you see it, right?" Xia Anruo didn't say it directly.

Seeing that Xia Anruo was still mysterious, Chu Ze clicked on it puzzled. The link immediately jumped to a barrage website that claimed that it might go bankrupt but would not deteriorate. The first thing he saw was a clip of a male college student singing at a party.

The video is a bit shaky, probably because it was shot with a cellphone.

Chu Ze looked at it for a while and felt that it looked so familiar.
Take a closer look...

Oh my god, the person singing in the video is my classmate!
Damn, isn’t this Cheng Ran?

Isn’t this the clip of Cheng Ran singing "Sunny Day" at the party two days ago? Judging from the angle of view, it should have been taken by a student from Jiangda University in the audience and then uploaded to Bilibili.

"Where did you find this video?" Chu Ze also admired Xia Anruo for being able to find this.

He had never expected that the cultural evening party of this crappy school would be posted online. There was nothing good to see.

"Do I still need to look for it? It's already popular on video websites." Xia Anruo replied.

"?"

Chu Ze was stunned, and subconsciously checked the number of views...

Wow, it’s already more than 800,000.

Looking at the release time, it was yesterday.

That is to say, in just over a day, it has been played over 800,000 times, and now there are over 5,000 people watching at the same time. It is only a matter of time before it breaks one million.

"How can so many people watch Cheng Ran singing even though he's singing like this?" Chu Ze was shocked.

"His singing is actually pretty good. It's mainly because the song you wrote is good and it's original." Xia Anruo said.

If it is just an ordinary video of a college student singing, it will naturally not become popular. However, if the video is an original song written by the student himself, it will be a good gimmick. In addition, the quality of this original song is not low, so it is normal for it to become popular.

"Tsk, is this kid really going to get famous?"

Chu Ze sighed, then quickly forwarded the video to the Four Heavenly Kings group.

Chu Ze: "@Cheng Ran, let me show you an interesting clown video."

Cheng Ran: "How interesting is it?"

Chu Ze: "You'll know when you see it."

Cheng Ran: "Okay, okay, let me take a look."

After a while.

Cheng Ran: "CNM, isn't this me?"

Are you looking in the mirror again?

No, I'm not a clown. Isn't this my highlight moment?

"Wait a minute, why is my singing video so popular online? Holy shit, am I going to be famous?!"

Cheng Ran finally realized what was happening and jumped up from the bed, but he hit the ceiling with a bang...

I almost fell asleep and fell into a deep sleep.

"Are you hysterical?" Lu Zihao was lying on the bed when he saw Cheng Ran next to him suddenly jump up and hit his head for no reason, and he laughed.

“Is he crazy?” Yu Yang also looked over.

"What hysteria? Didn't you see what was posted in the group?" Cheng Ran rubbed his head and grimaced in pain.

"You see, it's just a video with less than a million views. The number of views is not even as high as my V's slice." Yu Yang sneered. Cheng Ran's Ran is obviously not as good as his Ran Ran. A mere 800,000 views is nothing. You can add a zero and say you are famous.

"Haha, don't try to attack me. You are just jealous! Didn't you see that it has been popular for only one day after being released? I can't even imagine how many views it will get in a few days." Cheng Ran didn't care. He refreshed the page and saw that the number of views of the video had increased by several thousand. He felt so happy that the pain in his head was relieved a lot.

"Tsk, look at how cocky you are. Let me see what the comments say."

Lu Zihao clicked into the video comment section and read through it:
“This song is nice.”

“The lyrics are well written.”

"Did this person really write this? A college student can write a song like this? He's so talented."

Lu Zihao looked at the comments and said to Cheng Ran, "Hey, the comments are all praising the song for being well written."

"Just praising the song? Are you praising me?" Cheng Ran asked.

"Let me take a look."

Lu Zihao continued to flip through the pages after hearing this:
"The song is good, but the singing is not good."

"This song... It's a pity for this song. If someone in the cover section could cover it, it would definitely go viral."

"I acknowledge his talent for songwriting, but I beg him to stop singing."

Lu Zihao read the comments as he flipped through the pages.

Cheng Ran: “…”

Wait a minute, are you praising me?
"I asked you to say something praising me." Cheng Ran was speechless.

"Oh, then I'll look for it again..." Lu Zihao responded and continued to look through the comments.

Then the air suddenly became quiet for a few minutes.

"What the hell are you saying?" Cheng Ran was anxious.

"I wanted to say that, but I couldn't find it." Lu Zihao looked through the comments for a long time but couldn't find any that praised Cheng Ran. "Hey, is saying you're courageous considered a compliment?"

What do you think?

"Oh, forget it, a bunch of guys with no aesthetic sense." Cheng Ran said that the netizens of this generation are no good and are not worthy of appreciating his singing voice.

And anyway, as long as there is traffic, it doesn’t matter whether it is praised or criticized, whether it is black or red, it is also red.

Now according to the process, should I quickly post a video to take advantage of the popularity: "I am Cheng Ran, I joined Bilibili today."

Then Gaga gained followers, started live streaming to sell goods, was criticized for his character collapse and money-making, and finally cut a wave of leeks and ran away.

This trick has always worked. If he manages it well, he will never have to worry about his life.

Cheng Ran's video was on the hot list for about two days and received two million views. It was briefly on the hot search list of Bilibili, but it dropped off the list soon after.

This video itself did not cause much popularity outside the circle. After all, although one or two million views are a lot, there are also a lot of videos of this level on Bilibili every day, so it can't be considered a huge hit.

However, this still attracted the attention of some people in the music industry.

"Sister Xu, take a look at this."

When Xu Ya was taking a break after finishing her daily singing practice, her agent Tang Yu shared a video with her.

Xu Ya took a sip of water and glanced at the link Tang Yu sent: "What is this?"

"A singing video." Tang Yu said.

"Singing?" Xu Ya clicked on the video and watched it for a while in confusion.

The sound in the video was noisy. It was a boy singing a song at a party. This was naturally Cheng Ran's video.

As she listened, she gradually frowned, not because of Cheng Ran's poor singing skills, but because of the song itself...

"Sister Xu, what do you think of this song?" Tang Yu asked after the video ended.

"Although the sound quality is poor, I can tell it's a very good song." Xu Ya said affirmatively, and then she became a little confused, "It's just that I don't seem to have heard this song before. Do you know this song?"

"It's the first time I hear it too." Tang Yu shook his head.

"A song of this level shouldn't be a niche song." Xu Ya frowned and thought for a while.

"Because this is an original song," Tang Yu explained.

"Original song?" Xu Ya was stunned.

"Yes, this is an original song written by this boy." Tang Yu gestured to Xu Ya to look at the title and introduction, which indeed indicated that this was an original song.

Xu Ya was a little surprised when she heard this. Such an excellent piece of music was written by a college student?

She lowered her head and played the video again, listening to the lyrics, and then confirmed with Tang Yu again: "Is this really an original song he wrote?"

"At least that's what the online comments say." Tang Yu nodded.

"If that's really the case..." Xu Ya thought for a while, her eyes flashing with the light of finding prey, and then she stared closely at Tang Yu's eyes, "Go and help me find the information of this boy."

"Sister Xu, you want to..." Tang Yu roughly understood what Xu Ya meant.

"Go quickly!" Xu Ya urged.

"Yes."

Without saying a word, Tang Yu immediately turned around and left the room to order someone to check his identity.

Xu Ya lowered her head and looked at the phone screen again.

If this is true, maybe she has discovered an incredible talent this time.

If she could use it, then regardless of whether she could defeat Xia Anruo, at least it would be of great help to her career development.

……

Xinghua Entertainment.

"Yes, teacher, just one song will do... Yes, time doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry... Oh, is that so? I'm so sorry... No, no, I'm the one who nags, sorry."

Song Ziqi hung up the phone respectfully in the practice room, then sighed as she looked at the phone screen.

These days, in order to invite some good songs, she contacted many top gold medal producers, but unfortunately they all rejected her for various reasons.

But it was not surprising for her. With her popularity and strength, it was too much of a gamble to find a gold medal producer to invite her to sing for her on her own.

It's normal to give you a song when I'm in a good mood and refuse you directly when I'm in a bad mood.

Even if people have good songs, they usually only consider singers they are familiar with or those with big reputations. After all, they don't want the good songs they worked hard to write to be buried because of the singer's popularity problem.

Although the company also receives songs, even if you receive a good song, it may not be your turn, as there are so many singers in the company watching you.

I wish I could find an excellent songwriter to collaborate with like Sister An Ruo.

Song Ziqi was thinking this...

"Ziqi, let me show you this video."

The door suddenly opened, and agent Liu Fang rushed in with a tablet, then clicked on a video in front of Song Ziqi.

Song Ziqi looked at the screen in confusion, listening to the boy singing a song he had never heard before, feeling a little bewildered.

"Zi Qi, what do you think of the quality of this song?" Liu Fang asked.

"Apart from the sound quality and the boy's poor singing, this should be an excellent song." Song Ziqi nodded, "But is it because I am ignorant of this song? I don't think I have heard it before."

"Of course you haven't heard it, because it's an original song." Liu Fang said.

"Original?" Song Ziqi looked surprised.

"Yes, so Ziqi, aren't you just in need of good songs now? This is a perfect opportunity!" Liu Fang said excitedly.

"What do you mean?" Song Ziqi seemed to understand what Liu Fang meant.

"Yes, I have found the information of this boy. Do you want to contact him?" Liu Fang sent the information she found to Song Ziqi.
