Entertainment gossip team: Here we come! The gossip team who are at the forefront of eating melons are here with big melons!
I don’t know if you have watched the talent show that has been very popular in recent months. I heard that this variety show ended two days ago, and the gossip the blogger got was about the champion of this talent show, an idol named Lin.
I heard that the champion is a 16-year-old prospective high school student, but not only did he have poor academic performance in school, he also relied on the fact that his parents are teachers at a key school to get in through the back door. I wonder if he took up someone else's place.
I heard that with his grades, it would be difficult for him to get into a regular high school. However, according to the information dug up by the blogger, the school he is going to attend now is Yancheng Key High School, and I heard that he will go to the school to take a make-up exam on Monday, so I don't know what results he will get.
The accompanying picture under this blog post is a blurry picture of Lin Yimu returning home after the audition, as well as his previous test papers. None of the scores on the papers were passing, and what's worse, there was a math test paper with only 30 or 40 points.
[The blogger doesn’t need to blur the lines. The only talent show that just ended and went viral is Shining Star, right? Champion Lin Yimu’s surname is Lin. 】
[Nowadays, anyone can participate in talent shows and become a star. Do you plan to enter the entertainment industry to make money early because you are not good at studying? 】
[I say these kids, they are so young and don’t study hard, why are they doing singing and dancing? This variety show also has problems, letting a person who is so poor at studying become the champion. 】
[Haha, nowadays anyone can become a star. If one's academic performance is so poor, this will only lead to bad children and corrupt social morals. 】
[How does it become associated with corrupting social morals?] There are quite a few child stars nowadays, right? Being a poor student doesn’t mean you don’t study. Maybe your brother will make a comeback in the future? 】
[The blogger's picture is so blurry that you can't even see the face. Who knows if it's the brother himself? And your test paper might be photoshopped. 】
[Nowadays, gossip bloggers really make up the content of a picture at the beginning. We don’t even know if this picture is true or not. 】
Lin Yimu looked at the quarreling messages on Weibo, and his expression did not change much.
After dinner he was taking the time to study, but thinking about the contract he had promised to the agency before he was reborn, since he had no intention of entering the circle now he had to give them a call and make things clear.
Just after the call, Lin Yimu saw a 99+ message prompt suddenly appeared on the Weibo icon, so he clicked on it. Who knew that when he opened his Weibo, he saw that there were suddenly many more messages under the latest canvassing Weibo, some scolding him, some expressing disappointment and some still supporting him, and even many tagging him.
These messages made Lin Yimu confused and dazzled, until he clicked on the hot search following a tag message, and then Lin Yimu understood what was going on.
But now he has let go of this kind of thing and doesn't intend to care about it anymore.
In his previous life, he wanted to be famous but never made it to the hot search list. Now, he has planned to quit the entertainment industry and concentrate on his studies. The gossips in the entertainment industry no longer concern him. As for the poor grades written in the blog post, he believes that things will get better if he concentrates on his studies.
Lin Yimu stared at the Weibo for a while, then calmly turned off his phone and put it in the drawer of his desk, intending to study hard.
The more people think he is incompetent, the more he wants to prove to them that being a poor student does not mean you will be a poor student for the rest of your life.
"The host's idea is right. Don't be disturbed by external things. One day you will be better than all those who look down on you. Of course, the premise is to study hard. There are still three days left. I hope the host can complete the first task perfectly!" After Lin Yimu locked his mobile phone in the drawer, System 001, which had been silent while Lin Yimu was reviewing, suddenly spoke.
Lin Yimu paused for a moment while holding the book, then continued to flip through the book while helplessly saying, "Can you give me a hint next time you speak? I was really scared when you spoke out so suddenly."
001 said in a slightly textured mechanical voice with a hint of dissatisfaction: "How should I remind you? Should I shock you? Anyway, you will get used to it sooner or later, so just adapt to it!"
Lin Yimu rolled his eyes speechlessly, looking at the three-headed doll that had transformed into a bed for him in his mind and on which he lay comfortably. Thinking of his brain that had been developed by it to have better memory and comprehension, he stopped arguing with him and started to review seriously.
After all, he will take the exam in three days. No matter how thick-skinned he is, he still has to save his dignity. If he gets zero points, not only he but also his parents will not let him go, not to mention that there are so many netizens watching him.

"Son, are you up yet? You have to go to school for an exam today, don't be late!"
"Mom, I'm up already. I won't be late." Lin Yimu replied while sitting at the dining table and eating breakfast with his father Lin Bohan.
Jiang Wanqiu walked out of the kitchen and looked at the father and son who were eating at the dining table. She said with a smile on her face, "You two are really not in a hurry at all. Today is Xiaomu's entrance exam, and you are still so leisurely."
Lin Yimu ate bread and said, "Mom, don't worry. It's still early. Come over and have breakfast. I'll go to school with you later. Don't worry, I won't embarrass you." Then he picked up the milk at hand and took a sip.
Lin Bohan was sitting on the side, looking at Jiang Wanqiu with approval and said, "My son is right. It's still early. Come and have breakfast. Besides, there's no point in worrying about his grades." As he spoke, he shook his head helplessly.
Lin Yimu listened to his father's words, looked up speechlessly, and said with a pout: "Dad, your words hurt your son's heart. I will definitely get a good score this time, just wait and see!"
Lin Bohan looked at his son's confident face and said nothing, just gave him a waited look.
Today is the day that Lin Yimu goes to school to make up for the entrance exam. In the past three days, he has been studying even in his dreams except for eating. According to him, there is no problem at all. It’s just that his mother is nervous, and his father has no hope for his son at all, so their attitudes are completely different.
During these three days, apart from reviewing, Lin Yimu did not pay attention to the hot search event that had caused a lot of controversy on the Internet. This matter gradually subsided under Lin Yimu's cold treatment. After all, the parties involved did not come out to say anything.
Although Lin Yimu is an idol selected from the hottest talent show, he himself has not made any statement nor announced where he has signed with. Although a lot of fans are anxious, there is nothing they can do, and over time it has been suppressed by other entertainment gossips.
When Lin Yimu followed his mother to Yancheng No. 1 High School, classes had already started. Apart from a few teachers walking by occasionally, there were no students on the campus.
Lin Yi Mu followed his mother all the way to the office of the principal, and saw a middle-aged man with a square face and a serious expression wearing a suit. After a few words of conversation between the two, Lin Yi Mu learned that the principal's name was Chen Yu, and he was the one who decided to let him take the make-up exam.
"Let me make it clear first. If Xiaomu's test scores are really bad, I will never accept him even if our relationship is very good." After the dean of studies exchanged pleasantries with Jiang Wanqiu, he looked at Lin Yimu and reminded him seriously.
Jiang Wanqiu smiled calmly upon hearing this, "Of course, I can understand that as a teacher. My child is just a little too lazy. Although his grades are not very good, they are not bad either. The only problem is that he is biased in his studies. Otherwise, I would not have come to you."
Lin Yimu watched the conversation between the two and his mother's evaluation of him, and rolled his eyes in his heart. If he hadn't been reborn and possessed the system, he would probably have embarrassed his mother now.
"Okay then. Xiaomu, just do a set of papers today. There are five subjects in total: Chinese, mathematics, English, physics, and chemistry. As long as his grades are not too bad, I can arrange a class for him. But it's impossible for him to enter a key class." The dean took out a set of Chinese papers from the drawer and handed them to Lin Yimu. "Xiaomu, is it okay for you to do it in my office?"
Lin Yimu took the test paper, nodded seriously and said, "No problem, Director, I can do it now." After that, he sat across from the desk and started to do the test paper.
When Lin Yi Mu started to work on the test paper seriously, the dean and Lin Wan Qiu stopped talking. Instead, they sat at a table nearby and drank tea, occasionally getting up to check on how Lin Yi Mu was doing.
After Lin Yimu got the test paper, he fell silent as he looked at the questions on it.
In addition to the questions in the junior high school textbooks, the test paper also included some extracurricular knowledge expansion and a small number of high school topics, which made Lin Yimu stare at the questions in the end.
Due to time constraints, Lin Yimu only had time to review his junior high school textbooks in these three days. He had no time to learn or even look at the other extracurricular content and some basic high school knowledge. So when he encountered these questions in the exam, he was completely confused.
In the end, there was no other way, Lin Yimu could only sigh and put aside the questions he couldn't do, but he was worried about the result of the exam. He originally said that he would not embarrass his mother, but now Lin Yimu felt uneasy and had no confidence at all.
While Lin Yi Mu was concentrating on doing his homework, Jiang Wanqiu, who was originally sitting at the table drinking tea, could no longer sit still. She stood up and quietly walked behind Lin Yi Mu to watch him do the homework. When she saw that Lin Yi Mu left many questions blank, her face turned dark. She wanted to say something, but was afraid of affecting her son's homework, so she could only glare at him with disappointment.
The dean, who was sitting at the table drinking tea calmly, looked at Jiang Wanqiu's expression, walked to the desk with some curiosity, and glanced at the test paper that Lin Yimu was working on. When he saw the questions and the process of Lin Yimu's work, his eyes widened suddenly.
A morning passed, and just as Lin Yimu handed in three test papers to the dean of studies, he was pulled aside by his mother and glared at by her.
Chen Yu took the test paper, glanced at the three test papers in his hand, then looked at the watch and said, "It's getting late now, Wanqiu, take Xiaomu to have lunch first, and then come back to do the remaining two subjects. Don't let the child go hungry."
Jiang Wanqiu realized it was already noon when she heard this, and immediately wanted to treat Chen Yu to a meal, but Chen Yu refused: "No, that won't work. If I go to eat with you, what will happen? If it gets out, I won't be able to keep my position. Okay, you take the kids to eat, and I'll go to the school cafeteria and correct the test papers. Remember to come back after dinner to continue doing the questions!"
