My classmate is a big star
Incredibly, there is a program tailor-made for him to be a teacher. The concern is that he might not be able to control the younger generation, after all, he is only twenty-five or twenty-six years old this year. Although he has been working outside for many years, it takes a lot of courage for him to take on such a program.
Zhang Yuning asked him directly, "Ruoqian, with your current status, you really don't need to take on a show that will be universally criticized online. What are your thoughts on this?"
He almost blurted out, "Are you out of your mind?" but the obvious look on his face betrayed his doubt.
Xu Changjia tilted his head slightly, placed the chopsticks in his hand on the chopstick rest, stretched out his warm right hand to wrap around the puzzled man, and spoke up to defend him.
"Ruoqian didn't act on impulse. He naturally has his reasons for becoming the host of this kind of program."
Although Xu Changjia only learned about this matter from Assistant Wen in the last two days, he quickly understood his intentions by combining it with the things he had faced after returning from H country.
From childhood to adulthood, he has always been Zheng Ruoqian, who is willing to put in 120,000 efforts to pursue his dreams and stand on this stage.
Ask them word by word, and you'll find that Wen Xuanyi also went from working in law to appearing on legal programs, Zhang Yuning always flips through a couple of pages of her favorite comic book after solving every mystery, not to mention that Ou Liyao would cut out beautiful clothes and do her own makeup in her spare time.
Why can't Zheng Ruoqian do what he likes? Even if he might have to pay a price, having his friends by his side is the best support he can receive.
After her barrage of questions, everyone just smiled and remained silent.
Yes, they themselves have things they can't let go of, so why insist on giving their friends advice on how to make a living?
Having figured this out, when Zheng Ruoqian took on the talent show "Galaxy Reserve," he officially announced on Weibo that he had become the mentor of those 120 children, guiding them to learn singing and dancing and transforming them into qualified idols.
It instantly overshadowed countless hit dramas and popular variety shows, and its popularity skyrocketed.
However, the comments section was polarized, with fans praising his status and bringing up countless of his breakout performances to prove that their idol deserved the title of "manager".
However, passersby and haters did not agree, and the insults were overwhelming. The topic of him getting out of the entertainment industry became increasingly popular, comparable to when he quietly returned to China.
That was someone Xu Changjia had been with for ten years. She would even comfort and persuade her friends who didn't understand, and mediate between them.
She scrolled through Weibo posts, and directly forwarded the one with the most discussion, adding the eight words "No comment without knowing the full picture," and then pinned the first stage performance of his singing and dancing after returning to China, "The Second Embrace."
The situation immediately caused an uproar, with netizens eagerly following the gossip. What exactly is the relationship between this newly emerging star and Zheng Ruoqian, an idol who has been in the industry for many years, that they would publicly support him as the manager?
Before netizens could even process this gossip, Ou Liyao, who had just won the Best Supporting Actress award at the Huayi Golden Goblet Awards, posted a video of Zheng Ruoqian performing "Nine Stars Moon," which she watched for the first time with Xu Changjia. She captioned the video with a lyric from the song and added a comment in the pinned post: "A little manager, easily won."
When Hsu Chang-Chia saw it, she even gave it a like, which is in line with her usual humor. I just wonder what her "European bread" fans think.
More and more people in the industry are helping Zheng Ruoqian promote his work on Weibo, from CCTV host Wen Xuanyi to Zhang Yuning, the well-known intellectual and sexually active star who debuted from a brain-training variety show.
It's understandable that the Best Actor winner from the variety show "Survivor Game," who recorded a variety show with him, would post on Weibo. But why would a completely unrelated up-and-coming painter, Yunhe, suddenly get involved and publicly express his liking for his stage performance?
It's not just that fans from different groups are like blind men touching an elephant, aimlessly switching between various celebrities' Weibo accounts, trying to piece together a story about the past and present of their Champion member, Ci Mi Chi.
With so much support and encouragement, the online criticism subsided somewhat, but a new topic is now emerging.
Xu Changjia had been keeping an eye on what was happening on his side, and unusually, he paid more attention to the topic of "My classmate is a big star".
The reason is simple: everything this person wrote about actually happened. From the four of them meeting in the cafeteria, to their street dance performance, to climbing Mount Meng together, to Zheng Ruoqian going far away to pursue his dreams, and later joining each other in the TV series "The Legend of the Republic of China"—every little thing is a path they walked together.
Even later, when they went to university, they were all in Nan'an. They wrote down which school each of them attended and even released a group photo of everyone at Xu Changjia's graduate school graduation ceremony.
She scrolled up and down the long Weibo post. This person was clearly there to speak up for them, but it exposed the relationship between them. If not handled properly, her relationship with Zheng Ruoqian would be exposed, which would definitely not be a good thing for Zheng Ruoqian, who was currently in the eye of the storm.
After much deliberation, she sent a message to her assistant, asking him to check out the ID "Li Li Li Da Pu".
After reading this short essay titled "Li Li Li's Grand Profile," netizens couldn't help but sigh, "When will my classmate be a big star like Zheng Ruoqian?"
Soon, someone built a long building underneath:
"Didn't you guys notice? After all this time, I actually know all the people I'm a fan of, and they've been good friends for over ten years."
"Sure enough, top students are appearing in droves, and elites and geniuses appreciate each other."
"Mom no longer has to worry about me not studying properly because I'm always chasing after celebrities. The celebrities I follow will only make me study hard."
"Does anyone understand? I love this ensemble piece!"
"I get it! An idol who has returned after half a lifetime away, the epitome of intellectual homosexuality, the best host, a supporting actress who has struggled for many years, an up-and-coming painter, and my rising writer-director of folklore—this strange yet reasonable existence constitutes our favorite friendship."
"I hope they go further and further apart and don't get separated."
......
When Xu Changjia read the last comment, his memory book appeared at just the right moment.
He's been appearing less and less these days, and she's wondering if that means her mission is finally coming to a successful conclusion.
Without further ado, the memory book stated that Wen Xuanyi and Yun He's missions had been completed, and Zhang Yuning and Ou Liyao's progress bars had reached 80%. They were just waiting for an opportunity to finish their missions.
However, something went wrong on Zheng Ruoqian's side.
She pressed him repeatedly before his memory finally told her the reason.
Originally, according to the trajectory of her previous life, Zheng Ruoqian and she did not have this relationship, and she had never even been in a relationship until she was thirty years old.
However, in this life, because of her rebirth, her appearance gave him more choices in his life and caused him to deviate from the right path. In order to prevent the world order from being disrupted, the SOUL world sent the memory book back to receive new instructions.
Zheng Ruoqian's task progress bar is currently at 60-70%. In addition to becoming a qualified idol, he also needs to hold 520 concerts so that tens of thousands of people can hear his voice and use music to inspire the world.
She originally wanted to refuse the task outright, or say something resentful, asking why it was arranged this way and whose orders it was.
But the words were stuck in my throat, neither coming out nor going down; I couldn't say them, nor could I swallow them.
Her memory had been with her for many years, so it naturally knew her thoughts. With just one sentence, Xu Changjia accepted the task with peace of mind.
How do you know Zheng Ruoqian doesn't want to hold a concert?
Yes, back in the days when he was in the Champion group, if he got half an hour of solo footage during a three-hour concert, that was considered a lot.
How happy must it be for him to have the opportunity to be surrounded by thousands of people, with only him in their eyes and hearts?
She gave a vague answer and glossed over it, but from the perspective of memory itself, this meant she had already agreed to take on the task.
What he didn't tell Xu Changjia was that this was her last mission. Now her life was no longer in danger, and living to be seventy or eighty years old wouldn't be a problem. But after these 520 additional concerts were completed, he would see the two newlyweds walk down the aisle.
That will be the day he leaves, leaving Xu Changjia and returning to the world of Soul.
Looking at the young girl who had already blossomed, he still wanted to stay and see her more, to spend more time with her, even if that time was limited. He was willing to stay a few more days.
"Host, have you ever thought about writing another song for Zheng Ruoqian?"
Hsu Chang-Chia understands the unfinished words in the memory book. Nowadays, most of his representative works are group songs from the Champion era, and the copyrights are still held by the original company. There are actually not many songs that truly belong to him alone.
There's no need to be so euphemistic as to say "not many." You can count them on one hand. Apart from "The Second Embrace," which he wrote when he returned to China, there's only the theme song for a variety show he participated in and the ending theme song for a period drama he acted in. That's all.
If she could write two more songs, the concert's repertoire would have more options, and there would be no worry about not being able to put the concert on the agenda sooner.
