Chapter 017 Private Message (including forum style)
[Li Tao, where on earth was Lin Chiran doing? 】Zhou Qing took a break on Monday morning and logged into the forum skillfully, and saw this post floating on the front page.
She was also very concerned about this issue. It had been more than a week since the graduation concert, and other members had more or less made some updates. Qi Puxin revealed that he had passed the audition for the new drama, and Ning Sheng was said to be working with a well-known musician in the near future. Only Lin Chiran had not revealed any news at all, which made her a little concerned.
In the past, there have been idols who chose to retire early after graduation and directly quit the entertainment industry. Zhou Qing was worried that since there had been no news about Lin Chiran for so long, he might have the same consideration.
The atmosphere of discussion in the post was fairly friendly, perhaps because the recent incident had earned Lin Chi Ran a new wave of favor.
[Lin Chiran has first-rate abilities, and I feel like he will do well no matter what he transitions into. 】
[Even if it’s just for his looks, the OP would still be willing to watch the dramas he stars in. 】
[Don't even think about it. Lin Chiran once said that he prefers the stage to acting, so he probably won't be an actor. If you want to see his acting skills, you should go watch Qi Puxin. He's a professional so his acting skills shouldn't be too outrageous. 】
[The above recommendation is quite good. Qi Puxin's acting is indeed good, but his previous scripts are a bit hard to describe. Please choose carefully after his transformation. (This is off topic, so what do you think Lin Chiran might do?)]
[Like Ning Sheng, mainly developing in the field of music?] Because of what happened two days ago, I went to review "Diving Whale" and couldn't help but start playing the song on repeat. How come Lin Chiran is such a good singer? Even my parents asked me if this singer has other good songs. I'm almost addicted to him. 】
[Pfft, the people upstairs are so funny.] But it is true that Lin Chiran's singing skills and vocal quotient are both first-rate. In fact, his lyrics are also pretty good and quite spiritual. I personally like this style very much, but he has produced too few works, which can be counted on one hand. 】
[Probably because he was too busy, he spent most of his time directing the concert. This was really amazing. When I brought passers-by and friends to watch it, they were all very amazed and praised it highly. 】
[I feel that he is quite suitable to be a concert producer. SLANT's stage design will be difficult to surpass in a short period of time. If he holds a solo concert in the future, I am sure that many people will buy into it. 】
The post discussed for a long time what kind of jobs Lin Chi Ran was capable of doing, and Zhou Qing nodded repeatedly. Lin Chi Ran has been constantly honing himself and challenging new things over the years since his debut, and his abilities in all aspects are top-notch. Fans all hope to see him active again.
Zhou Qing thought so and clicked on Lin Chiran’s Weibo. She was very familiar with this page and noticed the difference at a glance. The background is still the familiar SLANT concert photo, but the personal profile has become 'Shenghuang Entertainment Producer'. Seeing this, she was a little confused and quickly switched back to the forum to reply.
[Go check out Lin Chiran’s Weibo profile!] 】
A few minutes later, the number of replies suddenly increased.
[What’s going on with the producer of Shenghuang Entertainment? Can anyone tell me that this is Lin Chiran’s Weibo, right? 】
[Lin Chiran, producer?] Is that the producer I understand? 】
So this is going to move behind the scenes? What a pity. 】
[I haven’t mentioned it yet, so I’m just behind the scenes. So what kind of producer is it, film producer or record producer? 】
[It may also be related to his profession. He has changed his profile and I guess some information will be announced soon. 】
[I feel dizzy and don’t understand. I wonder if he is really going to retire. 】
There are more and more similar speculations. No fan would want their favorite idol to retire. Many people began to express their concerns and other emotions in Lin Chiran’s Weibo comments and private messages.
The same is true for Zhou Qing. Generally, private messages on Weibo will not be replied, so she treats the private message column as a one-way tree hole, sharing the happy moments of her life from time to time, and also confiding some grievances and sadness that she cannot express to her family and friends. Just like the idol himself, it has become an indispensable part of her life. She had so much to say, she kept typing and deleting in the private message column, and finally sent this sentence after hesitating for a long time.
[Suddenly I saw that the profile has changed. Everyone is worried about whether you are going to retire. I know this is your personal decision, but I still can't help but care. SLANT is gone, and I can't imagine a life without you. Will you always be there? 】
After sending it, Zhou Qing felt something was wrong when she read this passage again. Was she imposing her own will on him? This was indeed what many people thought. The more they like someone, the more they hope that the other person can stay with them forever. Maybe fans will choose to leave on their own initiative one day in the future, but they all hope that when they look back, they can see that their idol has always been there.
Similar messages kept appearing on Lin Chiran's Weibo. Wu Wen, who helped manage the account and modify the profile, also noticed these in time. Looking at the genuine emotions in the fans' words, Wu Wen still hoped that Lin Chiran could know these.
"Brother Lin, many fans are concerned about your movements. Do you want to take a look?" Wu Wen asked Lin Chiran. The other party was recently worrying about the name of the new group project. He thought of several versions but was not particularly satisfied with any of them. After hearing this, he still logged into his Weibo account.
What caught his eye was the private message column that was still scrolling and increasing. Seeing that many of them mentioned the modification of the profile and the concerns about retirement, Lin Chiran suddenly felt a little guilty. The decision to modify the information was made some time ago, but it was put aside and not used on Weibo until this incident. I remembered it and handed it over to Wu Wen for management and activation again.
The sudden message made the fans who have always supported him feel uneasy. Although he has decided to develop mainly as a producer in the future, the awareness that he should bring happiness to his fans as an idol still makes him feel guilty at this moment.
"I'm sorry, I didn't think it through before asking you to make the changes." Lin Chiran said, and suggested that he take charge of the account for a while, and then he read the private messages one by one.
The number is too large and I can’t read them all at once. I can only browse as many as possible and click on the latest one. 'SLANT is gone now. I can't imagine my life after you're gone too. Will you always be here? 'Looking at these words, Lin Chiran's heart was filled with mixed emotions.
There were private messages sent in the past on this one, and he continued to read them by swiping the screen. This is a girl who has supported SLANT and herself for many years. The earliest private message can be traced back to when SLANT just debuted.
[I really like your enthusiasm on stage. I will support you from today. I am looking forward to your future development. I hope you can become very popular so that you can keep going~]
[Today I told my friend that I like SLANT very much. She asked me what group SLANT is. It’s too obscure and I’ve never heard of it. I feel a little sad, but I know that sooner or later you will be seen by everyone, and I will continue to support you! 】
Gradually, she began to complain about her life.
[Going to school is so tiring, but when I think about finding a job after graduation, I decide to continue going to school. 】
[I failed the postgraduate entrance exam, my family doesn't want me to take it again, and it's hard to find a job as it's past the best time. Is this how my life will end? 】
[I went to an interview today and felt very sad when the interviewer gave me a hard time. Why did it happen like this? 】
She didn't say directly what she encountered, but Lin Chiran could understand her mood when reading this passage. He wondered how her life was now. He scrolled to the next line, and only one day had passed since the previous one.
[I particularly like the new song, it was written for the graduation season. The lyrics reminded me of my initial thoughts. When I was still studying, I always felt that I had unlimited possibilities. If I work harder, maybe there will still be hope! 】
Lin Chiran was happy for the girl who had sent him a private message and found that she had regained her motivation.
[Ahhhhh, I found a job!] Although the salary is not much, I have very little overtime, so I can prepare for the second round. I feel that the new song has brought me good luck, and I am very happy! 】
[Preparing for the exam while working is not as easy as I thought. I feel like I don’t have much time to rest. How are you guys doing recently? I heard my colleagues mention SLANT. It was the first time I heard my favorite band from someone else, and I felt a little touched. 】
[Finally, I have to go to the examination room again. I would like to pray for good luck! If you pass, see you at the concert next year! 】
Seeing her getting better and better, Lin Chiran was very pleased, and the next one would be a surprise.
[I feel like even when I’m 70 or 80 years old I’ll still remember today’s concert. We are all moving towards a better future step by step [Photo: Concert Ticket][Photo: Admission Letter]]
Suddenly he felt something whirling in his eyes, and inexplicable emotions spread from his chest to his whole body. Lin Chiran raised his head slightly and blinked, not wanting to be discovered.
In the past, he seldom looked at the private message column, as there were too many emotions accumulated in it. If he opened it head-on, he would be overwhelmed by the overly straightforward emotions and feel suffocated. The somewhat heavy love made him happy but also scared. It was once his dream and his nightmare.
Lin Chiran took a deep breath and tried to calm himself. What followed were some daily sharings from this fan, as well as her thoughts on new songs, concerts, etc. It can be seen that her life is getting better and better, and she is enjoying it all. A few years later, she successfully graduated and lived a more ideal life. Her love for SLANT has not diminished at all over a long period of time, and she even sent a message before her graduation concert.
[Finally, overtime is finally over!] ! ! I really want to watch this tour. I haven’t watched the repo for a long time. See you on Friday! 】
Near the early morning of the same day.
[Why...why is this happening...I don't understand]
Then there was silence that lasted for more than a week, and then came the message that Lin Chiran first saw.
[Suddenly I saw that the profile has changed. Everyone is worried about whether you are going to retire. I know this is your personal decision, but I still can't help but care. SLANT is gone, and I can't imagine a life without you. Will you always be there? 】
Staring at the message for a long time, Lin Chiran made a decision not wanting to disappoint those who had been supporting him all these years.
