Early the next morning.
After Li Zhaoyang woke up in bed, he found that things were different from usual starting today.
Perhaps realizing that he was about to go abroad to develop his career and that his musical journey would be even more exciting, his mindset changed.
It's also possible that they felt relieved to send all the wicked people to prison.
In short, Li Zhaoyang felt exceptionally comfortable when he woke up today.
After breakfast, he received a call from the director.
"Your travel documents have been processed. You'll be leaving for the US the day after tomorrow. The Sunset branch has already informed you in advance."
Li Zhaoyang: "Aren't we supposed to depart in six days?"
Song Yuqin's tone became subtle: "You're in the music industry, don't you usually pay attention to what's going on in the industry online when you wake up in the morning? The official authorities have put the previously issued order on the top of the list."
Li Zhaoyang: "Issuing a top-down order, and then what?"
Song Yuqin: "Once the official order is put on the top of the list, it means that the situation is very serious. I don't know what the chairman and the official person in charge talked about, but I'm sure that the officials have a lot of complaints about our Wanxia. However, they can't guess that we are going to send you abroad to develop. Hehe, that will make those old guys furious."
Li Zhaoyang: "Director, you didn't talk like this before. You've gone astray."
Song Yuqin: "Okay, that's enough. Come to the company first, and we can talk about it there."
"OK."
...
Evening Glow Artists Department.
Hua Nongying had just clocked in for work when Supervisor Bian approached her, saying that Teacher Wanting had returned the gifts that Li Zhaoyang had given out the night before.
She looked slightly annoyed; how could a gift that's been given away be returned?
So I went to find An Lan.
As a result, the gifts that the other party had sent out were taken back.
"What does Li Zhaoyang mean by this? Does he not plan to cooperate with us anymore?" Hua Nongying questioned.
"How should I know? Why are you asking me?" Zhao Anlan was extremely annoyed when she took back the gifts.
It turns out Li Zhaoyang holds grudges so much. Now, if we want to mend our past relationship, we'll have to put in some effort.
"Quick, go down and see what's going on." A sudden voice from outside the office interrupted the two women's thoughts.
Hua Nongying looked outside with a puzzled expression: "What's going on?"
She saw her colleagues excitedly crowding towards the elevator, some even using the fire escape because there wasn't enough space.
"A large crowd has gathered at the company gate." Bian Ling'er also wanted to go and see what was going on.
"Huh? Another public outcry?" Hua Nongying was still feeling uneasy because of what happened yesterday.
"No... This time, it was all Zhao Yang's fans who came spontaneously to ask for his opinion." Bian Ling'er had to go find Zhao Yang.
"Ask him for his opinion? Ask him for what opinion?" Hua Nongying was completely confused by Ling'er's question.
Bian Ling'er: "Don't you guys know? Before, many people online were shouting for Teacher Zhaoyang to get out of the Chinese music scene. At that time, Teacher Zhaoyang said that this new song was the last song of Zhaixing. In addition, the release of Demise yesterday was so popular that it raised the reputation of Evening Glow to a very high level. The Chinese Music Writers Association also put the order on the top. Many things happened at the same time this morning, and these fans came spontaneously to ask Teacher Zhaoyang to continue to stay in the industry and write songs."
"The authorities have pinned the order to the top?" Hua Nongying selectively ignored the other words; she only heard that the order had been pinned to the top.
Upon opening the official website, it was discovered that the order previously issued by Tangsteel's representative was indeed prominently displayed at the top.
The fact that the order has been placed at the top of the list means that the authorities will deal with this matter seriously, and it will not be so easy to withdraw the order.
"Wait...didn't we win the lawsuit yesterday?" Hua Nongying was very confused: "If you won the lawsuit, the chairman should have brought Li Zhaoyang to pay a visit. How did things turn out like this today?"
She always felt there was something fishy going on.
Seeing that Bian Ling'er had already run out of the office area, Zhao Anlan and Hua Nongying exchanged a glance and followed her downstairs to see what was going on.
Li Zhaoyang, who had just arrived downstairs at the company, was stunned by what he saw.
Moreover, the company gate was so crowded that it was impossible to squeeze in.
What's going on?
"Beep beep beep~"
Amidst my doubts.
Li Zhaoyang received another call from the director.
"Zhaoyang, go through the back door of the company. The main door is blocked by that group of fanatics."
Li Zhaoyang said, embarrassed: "Director...it seems...it's too late. I'm right at the door."
After he finished speaking, the enthusiastic fans behind him all gasped in surprise when they spotted Li Zhaoyang.
"Holy crap, brothers, Teacher Zhaoyang is here!"
That frenzied atmosphere was ignited in that instant.
Slowly putting down his phone, Li Zhaoyang was speechless at the sight.
Unlike other celebrities, he didn't show any joy when his company was blocked by enthusiastic fans.
If he hadn't experienced that, he might have been able to laugh.
Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs" in life. The reality is that he experienced that. Emerging from the online atmosphere of being condemned by thousands and the oppressive environment, he felt that everything before him was extremely ironic.
If these people had supported him earlier, even if only a very small number of them had chosen to support him at that time, he might have stayed.
"Teacher Zhaoyang!" A group of fans swarmed around him, like stars surrounding the moon.
"Make way, make way!" Manager Bian had already led a group of security guards to squeeze through and protect Li Zhaoyang.
Song Yuqin followed behind, holding a megaphone and shouting, "Everyone, please disperse. Don't block the road and disrupt traffic."
"No!"
One female fan suddenly raised her voice: "This morning, the news that the Chinese Music Writers Association ordered to be pinned to the top of the search results has already become a trending topic. We just want to know, after 'Decent,' will Teacher Zhaoyang continue to write songs? 'Sorrow,' 'Countdown,' 'Decent'... every song is a masterpiece. It would be a great pity if he gave it up."
Instead of giving a perfunctory answer, Song Yuqin handed the megaphone to Zhaoyang, indicating that he should handle these matters.
Li Zhaoyang took the megaphone and walked slowly forward, looking at the countless pairs of burning eyes staring at him, his emotions completely unmoved.
When he reached the company entrance, he picked up the megaphone and said softly, "As I said before, dignity will be the final swan song for Zhaixing."
"That's Zhaixing!" A male fan raised his arms: "Zhaixing has left this music stage, but Teacher Zhaoyang, you haven't left!"
Li Zhaoyang responded calmly: "Leaving the Chinese music scene is the best outcome for me. And as you have seen, the official order has now been placed at the top, which means there is no room for negotiation on this matter. This song, 'Dignity,' is my final gift to you."
The male fan suddenly said something unbelievable: "The authorities aren't unreasonable. Mr. Li Zhaoyang, why don't you go and beg them? If the order is lifted, you can continue writing in the Chinese music scene without any problem."
"That's right, Teacher Li Zhaoyang. Go and ask the officials for help. If you lower your stance, there shouldn't be any problem."
There's a saying that goes, "You can't hit someone who's smiling." As long as you're polite, they'll get things done for you, even if they're difficult.
"..."
The people around them also cheered, as if they had found a good method.
