Chapter 184 Only Children Make Choices
It wasn't until a music festival officially announced the performance list that fans turned their attention back to the Seven Star Cup competition.
Unfortunately, the music festival was held on the same day as the Seven Star Cup finals.
The Fifth Quadrant group is one of the performing guests at this music festival.
After seeing the Weibo post forwarded by the Fifth Quadrant group, fans were shocked. They read the Weibo post over and over again before they were sure that it was that music festival and not any other music festival.
But this is a music festival! Why would they invite the Fifth Group to be the guest performer?
The music festival is held once a year and is a festival that all singers, musicians and music fans in the country pay attention to.
It reviews outstanding works of the past year and presents awards. It has been held for more than 40 sessions so far and is undoubtedly a music festival in China.
Although the Fifth Group attended this time as a guest performer, performing in front of so many outstanding singers and so many music fans both inside and outside the venue, online and offline, it was a considerable exposure.
Minghui Entertainment is so powerful that it can actually provide the Fifth Group with such resources?
But after the surprise, some fans noticed something was wrong.
The ceremony was held on the same day as the Seven Star Cup finals. Didn't Lu Yao also have to compete? Could it be that Lu Yao wasn't going to the ceremony?
As soon as this speculation came out, Lu Yao's fans couldn't sit still.
“???”
"May I ask?"
"No, isn't this a schedule conflict? Is Lu Yao not going to the ceremony?"
"Lu Yao is the lead singer. It doesn't matter if anyone doesn't go to the ceremony. But if Lu Yao doesn't go, how can we still listen to the songs of your Fifth Group?"
Some fans of other groups came out to be reasonable.
"The Seven Star Cup competition is more important, right? If Lu Yao can make it to the finals, he'll definitely win a prize, so he definitely has to participate in the competition. He'll just be a guest performer at the music festival. If it conflicts with the competition, there's nothing we can do about it. You're not hoping that Lu Yao won't make it to the finals so he can attend the festival instead, are you?"
Someone replied below:
"Are you saying that the ceremony is unimportant and can be abandoned casually?"
The comment section was noisy, with people arguing endlessly about everything from why the Fifth Group could actually go to the ceremony as a guest performer, to whether Lu Yao was going to the ceremony or the competition, to which was more important, the ceremony or the competition, to whether Lu Yao could make it to the finals.
The Luyao Data Group, which had been silent for a long time, finally came out and issued a statement to the company.
There is only one main theme.
'Lu Yao must not miss the ceremony.
But we can't let Lu Yao give up the competition.'
It was like the left and right brain were fighting each other.
But at the end of the statement, they put forward their demands.
"Lu Yao's exposure cannot be reduced due to the company's mistakes. If it is reduced, the company must make up for it with additional exposure."
The real purpose is revealed.
This is asking the company for Lu Yao's personal external affairs.
This immediately made other fans unhappy.
Combination, combination, what is a combination? It is a combination when things are together.
In the early stages of a group's development, how can a member handle personal affairs on their own? This is not conducive to cultivating team spirit.
The number of fans of the fifth group is already less than that of the sole member. If they also go about individual external affairs, won’t the number of fans of the group be even less?
And why was Lu Yao the first to ask for personal leave? Of the six members in the group, Qiu Yuge is just as popular as Lu Yao. In terms of talent, Bai You's overall skills are decent, Zhu Xiangming's vocals are good, and Cang Zizhen and Yin Hongxue's rap skills are very unique among their peers... Why are you, Lu Yao's fans, the only ones asking for personal leave?
The company responded quickly this time.
To sum up, there are two points.
①No member will be absent from the music festival performance.
② Lu Yao will give his all in the Seven Star Cup competition and leave no regrets.
It makes fans feel overwhelmed.
What's the difference between saying this and not saying it?
And from the first point of view, doesn’t it mean that Lu Yao will definitely attend the ceremony and perform?
But there was also the Seven Star Cup final on the same day. According to the current schedule, the competition would start at 10 am and end at 5 or 6 pm, while the red carpet of the music festival would start at 5 pm, so the two times would completely conflict.
If Lu Yao made it to the finals, how would he be able to participate in the finals and rush to the music festival at the same time?
Could it be that Lu Yao won’t walk the red carpet and will only perform?
After much thought, fans felt that Minghui Entertainment’s response was nonsense.
The fans started arguing, and chess fans also noticed the timing of Lu Yao's conflict.
Unlike his fans who are more concerned about whether Lu Yao’s interests will be affected, chess fans are only concerned about whether this will affect Lu Yao’s game level.
"His company said Lu Yao will definitely attend the ceremony... Doesn't that mean Lu Yao will lose and not make it to the finals?"
"Lu Yao wants to fix a match?"
"I was saying, being a star can't be a good thing. I saw that he was doing well recently, and I changed my mind about him a little, but the result is still the same, he only cares about making money."
"No, Lu Yao may not even make it to the finals, so how can it be considered a match-fixing?"
"Looking at Lu Yao's performance during this period, if nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to enter the finals."
"I was hoping Lu Yao would win, why did he go off to participate in some performance?"
"Ah? Lu Yao doesn't want to compete anymore?"
The ceremony and the finals were held on Saturday, and the semi-finals were held two days earlier. Before the semi-finals began, this kind of dispute had not yet come to an end. It was not until the day of the semi-finals that the disputes were barely settled, and everyone flocked to the live broadcast room to see whether Lu Yao could make it to the finals.
Then Lu Yao won without any ripples.
The camera moved up and aimed at Lu Yao's face.
Under the high-definition lens without any filters, it is perfect and flawless, without any trace of excitement for victory.
He nodded slightly, his movements relaxed and carefree.
"A truly perfect performance," the commentator exclaimed excitedly in front of the camera, his voice rising high. "Every move was carefully planned, every move decisive. In Lu Yao's chess, you never see the slightest hint of confusion or hesitation. It's truly beautiful."
The fans didn’t understand what was going on. After seeing Lu Yao win the game and hearing the commentator praising Lu Yao, they left the live broadcast room.
They were not interested in the subsequent review and discussion of the chess game.
The chess fans who stayed behind became more and more excited as they listened.
The chess moves were already very sophisticated when watching the game, and they showed his foresight even more after reviewing the game. Those moves that seemed puzzling at first could play an unexpected role in the end. This shows that when Lu Yao made that move, he thought of not only ten or twenty steps, but fifty, sixty or even a hundred steps!
Such talent, such ability, the feeling of being disappointed in others came to my mind again.
And in the upcoming finals, Lu Yao will even attend some party!
While other chess players were busy preparing for their matches, Lu Yao was still spending time preparing the program for the evening party! Rehearsing! Performing!
In this situation, can Lu Yao win?
But he can clearly win!
In this dispute between competing and performing, on the day of the final, Lu Yao demonstrated with practical actions how he could have both.
"Lu Yao, wins in the middle game!" With the referee's voice, the highly anticipated Seven Star Cup final came to an end at three o'clock in the afternoon.
Lu Yao changed his previous style and defeated his opponent on the chessboard without leaving a single piece of armor. He had no chance of recovery and had to admit defeat early on.
So, to the shock of his fans and chess enthusiasts, Lu Yao leisurely got into the nanny car, and when he appeared again, he was wearing an exquisite suit and walking on the red carpet of the music festival.
"Lu Yao actually made it here." The red carpet manager standing next to Ding Ling exclaimed.
Ding Ling smiled but said nothing.
As the fans’ red carpet photos came out, the words “Lu Yao” once again became a hot search.
With the honor of being the champion of the Seven Star Cup, the eye-catching look on the red carpet, and a little bit of promotion, she easily became the number one trending search.
Passersby who were not paying close attention to the Seven Star Cup finally got a taste of this belated news.

What is the Seven Stars Cup? It looks impressive with so many countries participating.
This time our country took first place, I am so happy
But who is Lu Yao? Is he an entertainer?

This Lu Yao is an old acquaintance
Well-known slash figures in the entertainment industry
Renowned for his strong time management skills
From time to time, passers-by will post shocking
Hence the saying "the swallows return as if they were familiar"
Recommend a few posts to you
[Who is this person who's been trending lately? He dances, plays chess, and is number one.]
[God said it was actually written by Lu Yao? Where did he find the time?]
[Oh my god, Lu Yao actually wrote an entire album]
[Want to succeed? Take you into the time management world of Lu·Time Management Master·Yao]
Are the differences between people really that big?
[When I was fifteen, I came home and saw my brother digging for spicy noodles under the sofa with his butt sticking out. My eyes went dark.]
There are really too many to list, so I will just share these.

I am not a fan of Lu Yao, but I have heard of him a little bit.
It has gone beyond the scope of human beings
Not a god-man, but a god
With this ability, you can succeed in everything you do, right?

How important is the Seven Star Cup championship? It seems that the officials attach great importance to this competition. All major media outlets are reporting on it. I have been watching it for more than a month.
Lu Yao got first place, isn’t that amazing?

In short, our country has not won the first place for more than 20 years.
We won first place this time. You can imagine how valuable this is.

There hasn't been a first place for more than 20 years, but Lu Yao got it. Isn't this amazing?
Moreover, Lu Yao won the first place while studying as an artist, which is even more valuable.

Doesn't that mean the value of this is even lower? Lu Yao worked as an entertainer while studying and doing so many things unrelated to chess, and still managed to get first place. Doesn't that mean his opponent was weaker?

Anyone who knows a little bit about Go would not say such a thing, which just shows Lu Yao's strength.
Lu Yao's strength is beyond the imagination of mortals like us.
It is a strong force at another level.
I once wanted to laugh at him without knowing my own limitations.
But every time I get slapped in the face, it's me
From then on, I understood that some people are destined to be looked up to.

I couldn't help but exit and took a look at the name of our group
Is our group a public group that bans fans? Is it really okay to praise an artist like this?

No problem, Lu Yao is already a god officially stamped by the team leader, he is not a human being, and certainly not an artist.
And it's just praise, everyone is not Lu Yao's fans

Even after being praised like this, you’re still not a fan?

Lu Yao is like this, praising him and liking him are two different things
I often wonder if he has some program installed in his brain and lives like an AI. How can anyone like him?
