Chapter 200 Three Seconds of Real Manliness
Looking at the response to this song on the Internet and in real life, Chu Ze was also deeply gratified.
In the previous life, "Invisible Wings" became the spiritual pillar of many people. This time, Chu Ze just let this song continue to carry forward its meaning in this world.
Chu Ze wants to use this song to inspire everyone. No matter what difficulties you encounter, don't be afraid, face it bravely. The best way to eliminate fear is to face it. Persistence is victory... Oli Gei! (Not
"Look, you're almost a saint on the Internet now."
Chu Ze, who was waiting for dinner at the table, read the comments for a long time until Xia Anruo finished cooking and brought the last dish to the table, then he said happily.
Xia Anruo looked at the comments Chu Ze showed her and frowned, not very happy.
"What's wrong? Are you not happy when I praise you?" Chu Ze asked puzzledly.
"The higher they are praised, the harder they will fall. You know that the Internet loves to create and destroy gods." Xia Anruo shook her head.
She is now familiar with the tricks of the Internet.
Netizens have always been like this. They first arbitrarily put someone on the altar for no apparent reason, and arbitrarily set expectations for him and give him a personality. Once this person who was put on the altar does something that does not meet the netizens' expectations, they will raise the banner of morality and criticize him with words and pens, destroy him with their own hands, and ruin his reputation. Then, they will continue to look for the next person who can be put on the altar with satisfaction...
The next step is to repeat this process over and over again.
In today's environment, being praised too much is never a good thing.
"That's right." Chu Ze bit his chopsticks and thought about it. This is the truth. "But with your current fame, it's hard not to be praised to death."
"So I think it's time for me to calm down and step out of the public eye for a while." Xia Anruo has been thinking this way these days.
Being too popular is not a good thing either. It feels really bad to have your every move being monitored.
Especially regarding this donation, I became the target of public criticism just because I did not issue a donation statement. If I do something wrong accidentally in the future, I will be cyber-bullied.
"Why don't you just retire?" Chu Ze joked.
"Come on, how old am I when I retire?" Xia Anruo said with a smile, "And will you support me after I retire?"
"I'll support you." Chu Ze nodded, "But you're only fifty, and now that retirement is delayed, you're not old enough to retire yet."
"?"
Xia Anruo raised her eyebrows and kicked Chu Ze under the table with her little foot: "You are only fifty."
"Hiss~ If I'm fifty, wouldn't that be like an old cow eating young grass?" Chu Ze said while rubbing his leg.
"Then what's fifty for me?" Xia Anruo said expressionlessly.
Chu Ze thought for a while: "A small horse pulling a big cart?"
Xia Anruo showed no mercy this time and kicked Chu Ze against the wall, making it impossible for him to get down. His death could not be more complete.
After Chu Ze won the resurrection match and sat back in his seat, Xia Anruo ate his food and said, "I'm going to release another album. What do you think?"
"Just release it. Isn't it just right that you need to calm down? You can calm down and polish the album. Don't worry about the songs. I will give them to you and you can choose them yourself." Chu Ze definitely had no objection to this.
……
The next few months were uneventful.
Chu Ze ran the company in an orderly manner and was extremely busy.
Now we not only have to train Zhang Susu, but other newcomers must also keep up. We can't put all the resources on one single person. What if one day he also jumps to another job like Xia Anruo?
At the same time, he also had to think about which songs to choose for Xia Anruo's album. It could be said that he had really become a wholesaler of high-quality songs.
Not only does the company have a lot of requests for new songs, Cao Dexing also found Chu Ze and asked if An Ruo could sing the theme song of Fights Break Sphere.
Chu Ze also rubbed his head and said, "Director Cao, the price of asking An Ruo to sing is not cheap."
"Ah? You want money?" Cao Dexing was shocked.
"Nonsense, you can hire singers for free?" Chu Ze was confused by Cao Dexing's reaction.
"Isn't this your own show and your own artist? Why are you still asking for money?"
"One thing is one thing, the money is still needed."
"How much does that cost?"
"I'll give you a friendly price from my family, one million." Chu Ze kindly gave a number.
It is indeed a friendly price. After all, any commercial performance of Xia Anruo can earn several million.
"Is that so? Okay, then you invest another one million in me and I will use this money to pay you." Cao Dexing thought for a while and said.
"?"
Chu Ze Black Question Mark: "No, you got it for free from me?"
"Mr. Chu, you said yourself that if the crew is short of money, we can continue to invest." Cao Dexing said innocently.
"Are you stuck in this bug?" Chu Ze's mouth twitched, his face full of black lines.
"I'm considering the ratings of our show. If An Ruo sings the theme song, just think about the gimmick. It will be a big hit when the show starts, right?" Cao Dexing's words were well-reasoned.
When the TV series is launched, this will also be a good promotional point.
"Okay, okay, I'll take care of the theme song." Chu Ze also knew that what Cao Dexing said made sense, so he agreed.
"Okay, Mr. Chu is very generous." Cao Dexing thanked with a smile.
"I've given you so many resources, please don't mess it up for me in the end." Chu Ze still reminded worriedly.
"Don't worry, it's absolutely fine."
After listening to Cao Dexing's assurance, Chu Ze hung up the phone with a headache.
Here comes another song.
However, Doupo already has quite a lot of songs. The previous anime had several theme songs. If Xia Anruo were to sing it, the song "Straight Through the Sky" sung by Zhou Shen in the third season would be quite suitable.
Fortunately, writing songs doesn't require much brainpower for him, otherwise he would have died suddenly.
Speaking of Fights Break Sphere, if nothing unexpected happens, the finale should be written next week.
After writing for so many years, I am finally going to finish it. I can finally relax a little without typing every day.
But when Chu Ze really typed the last three words "book completed" on the computer, he didn't feel relieved, but rather felt very sad.
Although I don’t know how many times I have read the story of Doupo, I have always participated as a reader. This is the first time that I have told the story from beginning to end as an author.
Every character was created by him, just like his own children, vivid and lively, accompanying him for a long time. When it came to the final moment of saying goodbye, he was really reluctant to let go...
Tu Dou: That’s enough. Did you create this? You plagiarized it and even plagiarized the feelings, right?
I've said it so many times, when you go out for sex, don't fall in love with someone! This is better for everyone.
After uploading the finale, within a short while, the chapter and comment sections were all filled with congratulations.
After Xia Anruo finished reading the ending, she came over angrily and grabbed Chu Ze's collar and shook him: "What kind of a crappy ending is this? Where's my Little Doctor Fairy? Why don't you marry her?"
"No, are you a fan of Little Doctor Fairy?" Chu Ze was dumbfounded.
"Can't you?"
"Stop shaking, this was written by Tudou, what does it have to do with me?" Chu Ze's brain was almost shaken out.
"Aren't you the potato?"
"Potatoes are potatoes, Chuze is Chuze, and sweet potatoes are sweet potatoes."
You want to arrest Lu Xun, what does it have to do with me, Zhou Shuren?
"And didn't I write that Xiao Yan would take Xiao Yixian back to Wutan City in the end? Isn't an open ending enough?"
"No, Xiao Yixian has been with Xiao Yan through thick and thin for so long, how can you be so cruel and not give her a name?" Xia Anruo was indignant. "This... a man can't be too fickle." Chu Ze forced an explanation.
"You've already married two people. You're already a playboy. What's wrong with marrying one more?" Xia Anruo glared at him.
"It's not my turn. I can't write whatever I want." Chu Ze protested.
I'm a book copyist, so I have to respect the original work. Adaptation does not mean making random comments, and parody does not mean talking nonsense. Otherwise, he's afraid that the fans of the original work will come across time and space to beat him up.
"You are the original author, why can't I do it for you? I don't care, change it for me and marry the little medical fairy." Xia Anruo rolled over and over, saying that she didn't want to listen, "If you don't change it, don't get on my bed tonight."
"..."
Chu Ze felt so tired seeing Xia Anruo acting like a child.
Hey, queen, your image has collapsed.
Helplessly, for the sake of a fragrant bed at night, Chu Ze could only temporarily change the ending he had sent out and upload it again.
In the future, there will be three mistresses in the Endless Fire Domain. It’s none of his business if Xiao Yanzi can’t bear it.
I thought I would be criticized for suddenly changing the ending, but I didn't expect it to be well received:
"Okay, okay, you did a great job!"
"I was wondering how we could leave Xiao Yixian behind. She has been with Xiao Yanzi for so long, it would be reasonable to marry her."
"I was so upset by the previous ending that I almost couldn't sleep. This time I was able to fall asleep. Thank you to the author."
Some people are satisfied and some are dissatisfied:
"I've married Xiao Yixian, so what about the other female characters? Why not marry them all at once?"
"Where's Yun Yun? Where's my Yun Yun?"
"Why doesn't Zi Yan marry?"
"I, Feng Qing'er, am not convinced by the evil cult! Why don't you marry Feng Qing'er?"
Of course, these are not what Chu Ze wants to control. You fans of the character can discuss them among yourselves. After all, the leader of Xiao Yixiang’s fans is Xia Anruo.
The novel of Doupo was completed, and by the end of the year, the TV series of Doupo was finally finished.
The next step is post-production, and then Chu Ze will review the sample film to see if there are any unsatisfactory parts that need to be re-shot.
After watching the sample film, Chu Ze had to admit that Cao Dexing was indeed very dedicated and responsible. The actors' acting skills, costumes, lines, plot rhythm, etc. were all very good and very consistent with the original work.
However, since it is a sample film, the post-production special effects and some editing are still very rough, but it is not a big problem. If it were to be scored, it would be at least seven points, which is considered to have met Chu Ze's expectations.
Once everything is processed later, I think the quality will be taken to a higher level.
So as long as you are willing to spend money and there are no messy people causing trouble, online literature adaptation can be done well.
Now we just have to wait for all the post-production to be completed, and then wait for review and release.
……
Things on the Doupo side have been settled for the time being. On the company side, Zhang Susu has become very popular because Chu Ze has helped her write many good songs in the past six months, released albums, and appeared in various variety shows. In terms of song performance, she is not inferior to many first-line singers.
A newcomer who was still unknown half a year ago, suddenly emerged as a dark horse and surpassed a number of veteran singers on the charts. This terrifying performance made many people unconsciously think of one person - An Ruo.
At the beginning, An Ruo also defeated all the competitors in a short period of time and became the top star.
Since Zhang Susu and An Ruo are from the same company, people on the Internet are jokingly calling Zhang Susu "Little An Ruo".
And as Zhang Susu's fame grew, naturally many people noticed that so many of the good songs she released were all written by an author named Chu Ze.
This time, Chu Ze did not use the pen name of Tu Dou, but his real identity.
Firstly, the pen name Tu Dou is An Ruo's exclusive lyricist and composer, and it would be inappropriate to write so many songs for someone else. Secondly, he is already the boss of an entertainment company, so there is no need to worry about whether he will become famous or not.
Sure enough, once his identity was not hidden, Chu Ze’s identity was instantly revealed.
The general manager of Xinruo Entertainment, and also the boss of Zhang Susu and An Ruo.
Netizens were all shocked when they saw it:
"Fuck, you need to be able to write songs to start an entertainment company these days? That's too much."
"He can manage a company and write songs at the same time, that's amazing."
"Sure enough, the gap between people is greater than the gap between people and dogs."
Also, this time in order to promote Zhang Susu, he wrote a bunch of excellent songs in a row, which was quite similar to the style of Tudou back then, resulting in a bunch of people on the Internet who had nothing to do and started to discuss it.
Who is better at writing songs, Tudou or Chuze?
Who is the number one songwriter now?
I hit myself.
Anyway, each side has its own opinion, the man says he is right and the woman says she is right.
In the end, Xia Anruo officially concluded the game in the comment section: "Tudou will definitely beat Chuze!"
"Oh my god, An Ruo is out, catch her!"
"Hahaha, is An Ruo standing up for Tu Dou? How loyal!"
"My goodness, sister. Aren't you afraid of being bullied by your boss for saying this?"
"An Ruo will be terminated tomorrow because she walked into the company door with her left foot first."
Seeing An Ruo speak, netizens all watched and joked.
Chu Ze also saw it when he was resting on the sofa after dinner, and glared at Xia Anruo unhappily:
"Why are you joining in the fun?"
"I have to tell them that potatoes are the best in the world! They will definitely defeat Chu Ze!" Xia Anruo held high the banner of his Potato Cult.
"I can defeat you in a second." Chu Ze rolled his eyes at her.
"Yes, you beat me in seconds. You're a real man in three seconds." Xia Anruo laughed.
Chu Ze was furious when he heard this, and pressed Xia Anruo on the sofa: "Let me show you if I can last three seconds!!"
"Okay, okay, I'm wrong, I'm wrong, can you give me three minutes?" Xia Anruo was pressed under him, kicking her calves around.
Chu Ze's face turned even darker, and he began to help her undress without saying a word, determined to let her see his strength.
"No, no, no, three hours, is that enough?" Xia Anruo saw that Chu Ze was serious and hurried to try to please him.
"Wouldn't it be better if you told the truth earlier?" Chu Ze then stood up from Xia Anruo with satisfaction.
"But three hours is a disease and needs treatment." Xia Anruo complained again.
"Then Doctor Xia, please help me with my healing skills." Chu Ze said as he shamelessly pulled Xia Anruo's hand and tried to explore the future.
"..."
Xia Anruo blushed and said, "Shame on you."
But even though he was cursing, it didn't sound like he was rejecting anything.
Ever since he tricked her into doing needlework last time, Chu Ze had tried countless times, but unfortunately, he was always beaten back by Xia Anruo in shame and anger.
I was just testing the waters this time, but I didn't expect that he seemed to agree unexpectedly.
Chu Ze was ecstatic and rustled for a while. When Xia Anruo blushed and shyly stretched out her jade hand little by little, slowly closed her palm, and then bent her fingers on it...
One bullet!
The secret bullet flashes!
Duang~
"You little pervert, you still want to trick your sister into doing something bad, maybe in your next life."
As soon as Xia Anruo finished playing, she jumped up from the sofa, left a cute laugh, and ran into the bathroom.
