Dongwon University.

A boy walked out of the auditorium.

Immediately, many more reporters came forward, their flashlights flashed, and their microphones were pressed.

"Mr. Shao, may I ask why you came to participate in this school song competition?"

"Mr. Shao, I heard that the song you sang today has been bought for 200,000 yuan. Is it true?"

"Mr. Shao, what do you think of your current results..."

Shao Yangyang suddenly turned his head, corrected the reporter before, and said: "It was sold for 2 million, and it was just a song."

The reporter who was corrected hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to ask more questions. Shao Yangyang, who was in the crowd, waved his hands and walked out of the crowd under the protection of two bodyguards.

Behind the scenes, the flashlight was still flashing desperately.

After getting into the car, Shao Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief and took out his phone.

He first called his father: "Dad, it passed... Well, I understand, Dad, okay Dad..."

Then he called Yu Wenhong again: "Aunt Yu, I came out and everything went well... Yes, I passed, and the instructor's evaluation was pretty good..."

After making the call, Shao Yangyang took a deep breath, leaned on the backrest tiredly, and looked ahead.

The car was driving away from the crowd and gradually headed towards the gate of Dongwon University.

From time to time there were reporters taking photos of the vehicles on the roadside in front of them.

Although he knew that reporters could not see him, Shao Yangyang still put on his hat and huddled in the back seat, avoiding all eyes.

Ever since he was little, it has been his instinct to avoid flashing lights when he shouldn't show his face.

And at some point, he began to hate all flashing lights.

In the passenger seat of the vehicle, his manager, Zhu Yaxin, who is also his aunt, said: "Yangyang, if you are tired, take a rest. You have to take a vocal class later. The vocal teacher said that your performance has not been good recently.

That’s great, you must work harder.”

Shao Yangyang didn't say anything, but his height, which was already low, shrank even smaller.

As the last contestant of "Genius Project B", Shao Yangyang has also successfully entered the preliminary round of Dongwon University School Song Contest.

This means that all six people from the "Genius Project" promoted by Yu Wenhong have been shortlisted for the preliminary round of the school song competition.

This is not difficult, after all, the primary selection criterion for the school song competition is "college students who are better at singing."

The six people who have been selected, trained and packaged by a professional company will be a problem if they fail to pass the preliminary round.

But Shao Yangyang is actually a special one.

Because Shao Yangyang is a "second generation star".

His father was once a popular singer from all over the country, Shao Kebin, and his mother was also a famous "Jade Girl Singer".

However, the two people's stardom was not smooth. After the phenomenal explosion, the two people quickly encountered a trough in their careers. At the same time, they also encountered the era of the rise of the four little kings of Zhou Wang Tao Lin. In a large number of outstanding people

, under the impact of original musicians, the couple who could only sing guava love songs quickly disappeared from the public eye.

After that, when the two people appeared in front of everyone, they basically talked about all kinds of gossip.

Shao Kebin and his wife were getting divorced, Shao Kebin was found to have a mistress, Shao Kebin was suspected of being cuckolded by his agent, etc...

Fortunately, the two of them also have several highly popular songs, which are must-have songs for middle-aged and elderly people when they sing in KTV, so they are not completely outdated.

The two of them had already completed their early accumulation, and with good connections and catching up with the good times, many of the things they invested in had good returns. They gradually became "capital" parties in the entertainment industry, and they were a bit "smart".

"the meaning of.

It’s the kind of headline-making self-media that likes headlines like “He was once popular all over the country, and others thought he was outdated. In fact, he lived a very good life. Look at xxx’s mansion, do you still think he is outdated?”

Protagonist.

Are they considered big names in the entertainment industry?

In fact, it doesn’t count anymore.

There is not much appeal and influence left.

But sometimes what they say is still useful. If you don’t search, you won’t be able to remember. If you search, they will still live on the edge of gossip and public opinion. They will be used as “nostalgic” and “fried rice” by some media.

Their current situation is that they have retreated to the second line, but they are not willing to accept the second line. They no longer rely on the entertainment industry to live, but they still don't want to leave the entertainment industry.

After all, how can other circles be as glamorous as the entertainment industry?

Once you have savored that taste, you can never go back.

The relationship between Shao Kebin and his wife is not good, and their opinions are to the left in many aspects, but there is only one thing they have in common.

That is, he hopes that his son will become famous as early as possible.

The couple suffered the disadvantage of not having systematically studied music. At the beginning of the century, they were pushed off the altar by several singers who were both good at singing and writing. They were also pushed down by countless musicians who, although not as good as the Four Little Kings, still had excellent creative ability.

Trampled on, there is nowhere to turn over.

All parents in the world will give their children what they think is best.

Therefore, they started their son's music training since Shao Yangyang was three years old.

Piano, violin, vocal music...

It can be said that they used all their strength to create a "music prodigy".

With the heavy investment of two people, Shao Yangyang "demonstrated his strong creative ability" when he was in his teens, held concerts for himself, and invited many master figures to praise him.

At that time, there was a wave of "genius children" craze.

However, due to the popularity it created, the frequent TV appearances, and the monotonous performance, the audience soon became bored.

In the blink of an eye, the information of the information age is washed away until you can no longer see it.

When they were about to reach adulthood, the two of them worked hard to create the title of "Genius Creator" for Shao Yangyang.

Various original talent shows have been on again and again. There is endless hype about "created" songs being "sold at sky-high prices".

Singing songs and appearing in the new albums of major famous singers.

It's just that this kind of hype, this kind of sparing no effort in promoting, the effect has never been good.

No matter how much official announcements Shao Yangyang buys, his popularity is never very high.

No matter how glamorous the "genius boy" persona his parents helped him create, the songs he "created" just weren't popular.

It’s not even as popular as other people’s songs that he sang on the Internet.

No way, although Shao Yangyang's parents still have some connections, they are already old and decayed. The "genius creations" that Shao Kebin helped Shao Yangyang create are just lacking in quality, and even smell of decadence from the end of the last century. They are completely useless.

Don't open the market.

However, when Shao Yangyang started a live broadcast and covered other people's songs on the Internet, Shao Kebin immediately closed his account and told him not to touch those "vulgar" things.

The couple was defeated by that glorious beginning of the century, that era that belonged to the Four Little Heavenly Kings. Their imaginary enemies were the creative geniuses like the Four Little Heavenly Kings, the geniuses who led the times.

But the modern era has changed. In this era, original music is even more depressed. Singers are not busy releasing songs, but participating in various variety shows.

Plagiarizing singers does not feel shame but pride. Just piece it together and write one or two nice hooks to become a hit on Douyin...

On the one hand, the music market has sunk to an even lower-end environment than before they were eliminated.

On the one hand, the audience has been whetted by several genius-level little kings.

In this contradictory era, they struck frequently, but they always found the wrong place, couldn't identify the pulse, and hit the empty space with every punch.

When Shao Kebin and his wife felt that they were unable to continue and found that they could not keep up with the times, Yu Wenhong extended an olive branch to them.

As contemporaries, Yu Wenhong and Shao Yangyang's parents had a good relationship.

And she really needs people like Shao Yangyang in her plan.

Other "geniuses" still need to start from scratch, while Shao Yangyang is already a half-finished product.

After joining Yu Wenhong's "Genius Project B", Yu Wenhong asked people to drastically modify Shao Yangyang's previous creations, re-make personalized arrangements, help Shao Yangyang record an album, and then added several hits to the charts.

After several influential programs and the promotion of Douyin and other platforms, Shao Yangyang's "genius creator" character was finally established.

This kind of cooperation has been going on for several months. Some time ago, Shao Yangyang's new album also achieved good results.

Several songs have even become popular on Douyin.

Yu Wenhong took the opportunity to hype up, found some unpublished songs from the music library of his partner hsl, packaged them and turned them into Shao Yangyang's original works, and gave these songs to his own artists to sing.

It also promoted "heavy money purchase" to the outside world, and even gave Shao Yangyang the title of producer.

At this point, Shao Yangyang, a talented creator and producer who is "hard to find", has finally established his title as producer.

The hardships involved are really indescribable to outsiders.

The hardest person is Shao Yangyang himself.

He is already a little depressed, often unable to concentrate, and needs sleeping pills to fall asleep at night.

And he is only 19 years old now.

At this moment, Shao Yangyang was leaning on the back seat, staring blankly ahead, not knowing what he was thinking.
To be continued...
