Chapter 183 Shen Qingshu digs a pit for Zhou Yuchu
Shen Qingshu was chatting with Jin Que when she suddenly felt Zhou Yuchu's gaze. She paused and turned her head.
Their eyes met, Zhou Yuchu gave a slight smile, turned to look at the guest who was speaking to her, and responded gently.
Shen Qingshu looked at her with a cold gaze.
Jin Que asked her in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Shen Qingshu withdrew her gaze and replied softly, "It's nothing."
Jin Que glanced at Zhou Yuchu indifferently, then looked at Shen Qingshu.
Shen Qingshu leaned back in her camping chair, while Zhou Yuchu chatted with the other guests with a blank expression.
Those seemingly calm eyes held a deep resentment.
Jin Que withdrew his gaze and glanced at Jiang Ruomi beside him without making a sound.
Jiang Ruomi met his gaze, her beautiful eyebrows slightly raised.
Jin Que withdrew his gaze.
The guests were all chatting with Zhou Yuchu.
Zhou Yuchu has indeed been enjoying great success lately. Although he is not feeling well, his face is still in excellent condition.
Before returning to China, she made a special trip to H country and spent hundreds of thousands of yuan on a certain light injection. Now is the period when the effect is most natural and the best. When she goes without makeup, she truly deserves the title of 'national white moonlight'.
The female guests watched with envy, and the male guests were moved.
With her recent resurgence in popularity, the guests present were even more enthusiastic in their conversation with Zhou Yuchu.
Zhou Yu was enjoying the praise from everyone and had long forgotten about his worries about being exposed.
The production team prepared cocktails for everyone; they weren't very strong and tasted good.
Jin Que asked Shen Qingshu, "Can you drink alcohol?"
Shen Qingshu glanced at the peach-flavored cocktail in his hand and said softly, "Okay."
She doesn't have a high alcohol tolerance, but she can drink a little cocktail.
Jin Que opened a bottle of peach-flavored drink for her, poured it into a glass, and handed it to her.
Shen Qingshu reached out and took it, saying thank you.
Outside, Jin Que didn't emphasize anything, just smiled faintly and poured himself a glass.
Soft music played, and everyone relaxed after having a few drinks, becoming less reserved as they chatted.
Zhao Yangyi poured Zhou Yuchu a glass of warm water and handed it to her, saying, "Teacher Zhou, if you're not feeling well, please don't drink alcohol."
"Thank you." Zhou Yuchu smiled gently at Zhao Yangyi. "It's probably because I've been filming day and night lately, and my headache has flared up again. But it's an old problem, and I'm used to it."
"Teacher Zhou is known for his dedication to filming, and I heard that this is a big production with many scenes involving professional knowledge, so the level of difficulty is quite high."
Zhou Yuchu looked at Teacher Deng and smiled, "The crew and director are very dedicated. Compared to my previous works, this one is more difficult to film because it involves a lot of intangible cultural heritage. But the advantage is that I can learn more from the director and the seniors."
"Teacher Zhou is too modest." Jiang Ruomi looked at Zhou Yuchu with a sweet smile. "However, Teacher Zhou, I heard that you are knowledgeable in music. This kind of play shouldn't be too difficult for you, right?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu's smile froze.
She turned to look at Jiang Ruomi.
Jiang Ruomi smiled at her, a bright and sweet smile, but with a hint of rebellion in it!
"I have studied some things, but I'm not an expert," Zhou Yu replied vaguely.
"Teacher Zhou, please don't be modest!" Jiang Ruomi waved her hand with a smile. "How could someone who can write such wonderful music not be an expert!"
Zhou Yu pursed her red lips tightly and remained silent for a moment.
The crowd didn't quite understand.
Teacher Deng pressed on, "What did Teacher Jiang say? I don't understand."
"No, none of you know?" Jiang Ruomi feigned surprise as she glanced at everyone. "Do you know Shen Chuxi, that singer from the talent show who's been all the rage online lately?"
Zhao Yangyi: "Oh, Shen Chuxi! I know her, that show has aired three episodes, and the songs she sang in each episode were amazing!"
"I know Shen Chuxi, some people say she's this year's champion!"
"The main reason is that all the songs she participated in were original, with a strong personal style, and the musical style also incorporated intangible cultural heritage elements, which is very rare!"
Jiang Ruomi nodded, "Yes, her singing skills are actually just average, but the songs she sang in the competition were really amazing, and she has already responded on her personal Weibo, saying that those songs were all composed by Teacher Zhou!"
Instantly, the entire audience erupted in uproar!
All eyes immediately turned to Zhou Yuchu.
Zhou Yuchu tightened his grip on the water glass.
Just what I feared most has come to pass!
However, she remained calm. "Teacher Jiang is exaggerating. Shen Chuxi is my cousin. Her dream is to be a female singer. I was just helping her out a little. Those songs were just things I wrote in my spare time."
"Teacher Zhou, don't be modest!" Jiang Miruo laughed. "Those pieces incorporate elements of Southern Music. Without a certain level of skill, it would be impossible to create such exquisite pieces!"
Zhou Yu looked at Jiang Miruo and felt that Jiang Miruo was doing it on purpose.
However, no one else knew about her stealing Shen Qingshu's creative copyright except for herself and Shen Chuxi!
Could it be...?
Zhou Yuchu's eyebrows twitched, and he suddenly looked at Shen Qingshu.
Shen Qingshu had been waiting for this glance for quite some time.
When Zhou Yu looked over, Shen Qingshu smiled and said, "Teacher Zhou is talented and beautiful. She can act, compose music, and is also proficient in Nanyin music. She is truly a treasure of a female star."
Zhou Yuchu gritted his teeth secretly, stared at Shen Qingshu, and smiled calmly, "I just learned it for fun in my spare time, so I can't say I'm an expert."
Shen Qingshu feigned surprise, "Teacher Zhou, you taught yourself Nanyin?"
Zhou Yuchu forced himself to reply, "Yes, it was self-taught."
Upon hearing this, Jin Que chuckled softly.
His smile drew everyone's attention.
They didn't understand why Jin Que was laughing.
But Shen Qingshu was very clear about it.
Nanyin music is not something you can learn on your own. Even now, in Mincheng, where there is a focus on promoting and preserving Nanyin, most people still need to apprentice under a master and start practicing from childhood.
To learn something thoroughly and deeply, you need to start learning early, and the teacher is also crucial.
Back then, when Shen Qingshu was eight years old, her grandfather found her a teacher to teach her Nanyin music. She didn't fully master it until she was thirteen, when she began to try to incorporate Nanyin music into her pop music compositions.
Zhou Yuchu didn't even understand how to steal properly, yet he thought he had concealed it very well.
Shen Qingshu looked at Zhou Yuchu and raised an eyebrow slightly, saying, "I happen to be a fan of Nanyin music as well. Since Teacher Zhou also understands Nanyin, how about we have an impromptu duet on the spot?"
Zhou Yu was taken aback, "This..."
"I want to see!" Jiang Ruomi was the first to raise her hand and shout, looking at Zhou Yuchu with a playful wink, "Teacher Zhou, please let us feast our eyes!"
Zhou Yuchu: "..."
"I want to see it too!" Zhao Yangyi was the second to raise his hand. "I've been listening to 'Grandpa's Paintbrush' on repeat every day! Oh my god, the creator is actually Teacher Zhou! Teacher Zhou is truly my idol! He's amazing!"
Teacher Deng also laughed and said, "Teacher Zhou is really amazing, both talented and beautiful. No wonder the production team invited Teacher Zhou to be the guest star of this episode. It turns out that Teacher Zhou had such a big surprise in mind!"
Upon hearing this, the director slammed his hand on the table and exclaimed, "It's settled then! Teacher Zhou will play 'Grandpa's Paintbrush' for us. Xiao Dong, go find a Nanyin pipa!"
"Okay!"
Zhou Yuchu: "..."
