"Really?" Jin Lan asked Jia Yi hurriedly.
"Yes, of course." Jia Yi said, "My habit is to keep one or two songs in reserve for emergencies, just to be prepared for this situation."
"Wow, so handsome!" Jin Lan's eyes were full of stars.
Jia Yi laughed and looked at her: "What? What does this have to do with being handsome?"
“I just think people who can write are so cool!”
Jia Yi was quite pleased with this flattering gesture and said with a smile, "It's just that I always have creative anxiety, so I have to keep the manuscripts."
"I don't agree!" Meng Xing beside him suddenly said, "A true creator should empty themselves every time they create."
"So what?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked with her head tilted.
“So, true creators shouldn’t have any drafts saved.”
"Wrong logic!" Yu Xiaoxiao shouted.
Jin Lan smiled awkwardly but politely and said, "Teacher Meng, I don't think this is very cool of you."
"Tsk, it seems your appreciation level needs to be improved." Meng Xing said.
Everyone burst into laughter. Lu Chujiu, who was standing nearby, whispered to Chen Ya:
"Brother Chen Liang, Brother Chen Liang, do you have any manuscripts saved?"
Everyone was laughing just now, but when Lu Chujiu asked this question, the scene suddenly fell into a strange silence.
Therefore, her soft words suddenly became clearly audible to everyone present.
Chen Ya looked at everyone's reactions and the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
These people are so hypocritical that it's a bit blatant.
On the surface they were just joking around, but in reality they were all paying close attention to their opponents' situation.
Yes, this is the entertainment industry, and those in front of us are still in the starting stage or even the rising stage.
What's wrong with Chen Ya having some connection with Mr. Qin? Even if they were told from the beginning that the champion of this tournament had already been decided and that they were all there to accompany the prince to study, they wouldn't give up.
So what if he was the champion? Even if he was a supporting actor, he still stole the show.
What's more, in these years' talent shows, which one wasn't the runner-up more famous than the champion, and whose later development path was better than the champion?
Chen Ya thought for a moment and said, "I don't have any manuscripts saved. In fact, I haven't created anything in many years."
"Ah?" Lu Chujiu was a little surprised.
Yu Xiaoxiao, standing next to him, spoke frankly and boldly asked, "Then how did you get chosen to participate in the show? Is it because you know Mr. Qin?"
These words were a bit like exposing the truth, and Jia Yi, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but worry for this girl.
She has such a fierce personality! How dare you ask her this in person?
Chen Ya said, "Maybe it's just luck. I'm not that familiar with Ms. Qin, but I worked under her before, so maybe she has a good impression of me."
This was all the "truth." He was indeed "not familiar" with Qin Yunchu, and Qin Yunchu did have a "good impression" of him.
He said this on purpose because he was afraid that people around him would target him, and he was also afraid that his background would be exposed, causing the program crew to be hesitant and want to give him more shots.
This time he wanted to keep a low profile and not show off. It would be best if no one remembered his existence and he melted into the air.
Hearing him say this, the people around him were more or less relieved.
Especially the director, who had originally thought that Chen Ya's personality was too dull and difficult to give him a shot, but now he heard that he didn't have strong connections, he felt a little relieved.
He wasn't gullible. If Chen Liang and Qin Yunchu were truly close, then Qin Yunchu wouldn't have left him alone, and there was no need for him to be so low-key.
The director clapped his hands and said, "Okay, everyone, keep this up, and we'll start the show."
As soon as the camera came on, everyone looked subtly different.
That's how variety shows are. There's an observer effect. Once the camera is on, everything people do will be more exaggerated than usual.
After He Su announced the rules of the game, everyone began to draw lots to form groups.
The program team made three pairs of balls and put them in two boxes. Those who got balls of the same color were automatically divided into a group.
If this kind of grouping is for the sake of program effect, it should have been decided internally. In fact, the previous script was already decided internally.
Jia Yi, Meng Xing, and Guo Xiaoran were originally of similar level. Guo Xiaoran was also handsome, so they were going to be paired with Qin Yunshang. However, Guo Xiaoran withdrew from the competition.
Now there is Chen Liang, whose level is far lower. The program team is embarrassed to make an internal decision for fear of conflicts, so they just let God decide, and no one has any objections.
He Su placed the opaque box filled with colored balls on the table, glanced around, and said, "Who's going first?"
No one present took action.
Meng Xing looked around and said, "It doesn't matter who goes first or last, right? I'll go first!"
After that, he took out a ball from the box and showed it to the camera.
"Blue. Next." He Su said, "It's the girls' turn to choose now."
"I'll do it." Jin Lan raised his hand first and took out a ball from the box.
"red."
Jin Lan looked at Meng Xing and said, "What a pity, Teacher Meng."
Meng Xing said, "We missed the opportunity!"
"Let the boys come this time." He Su said.
Jia Yi looked at Chen Ya and said with his eyes, "You go first?"
"You go first." Chen Ya said.
Jia Yi was not polite either. He reached into the box and finally grabbed a yellow ball.
"Wow, three people with three different colors. This is God's will." Yu Xiaoxiao complained.
Jin Lan looked at Chen Ya sadly. She had just prayed in her heart that Jia Yi would catch the red ball, but he caught the yellow ball instead.
Now, there are only yellow balls left in the creator's box, so he can only partner with Chen Liang.
For her, this was a very bad draw.
