This star just wants to make more money

Chapter 7 I didn't mean it

Xu Feng quickly put Green Tea behind him and prepared everything needed for an original song.

A few days passed quickly, and the competition day of "Tomorrow's Singer" from 8 to 5 arrived as scheduled.

In the lounge area of ​​Luohe TV Station, Xu Feng sat on the sofa, eating melon seeds while going over the entire song in his mind.

From the time when top 8 were selected to top 5, the entire variety show "God of Tomorrow's Singer" became a live broadcast.

There is no chance for editing or modifying, no chance to find excuses to pause and start over, only one chance to decide life or death.

Time is running out for pre-match preparation.

At this time, the other contestants in the lounge were no longer practicing. Some were playing with their phones, while a few outgoing people gathered together, laughing from time to time.

Xu Feng felt that there was no way he could blend in with them, so he simply didn't bother to do so.

Anyway, after his performance in the previous few episodes, he has proven his singing ability. With the help of the system, it is not a problem for him to get some small resources. Then he can use these small resources to steadily consolidate his base and wait for the opportunity to become famous in one fell swoop...

There is no need for an agency and the possibility of making mistakes is lower.

When Xu Feng was planning his future, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure appearing not far away.

"Brother? Do you know each other?"

Xu Feng looked up and saw a relatively clean and thin boy. Without thinking too much, he nodded and briefly introduced him: "Xu Feng."

Don't hit someone who smiles at you. If someone takes the initiative to talk to you, Xu Feng will not give you the cold shoulder for no reason.

"Hey, you've been on the show so many times, how could I not know your name?" The man laughed, "My name is Dai Mingli, you should have some impression of me, right?"

I do have some impression of him. He is a singer with a strong personal style, but his song style and singing method are relatively niche. To be honest, his singing is very nice and he is a strong rival.

Xu Feng was too lazy to talk too much nonsense, so he didn't respond and asked directly, "What's the matter?"

Dai Mingli looked around and made sure that there was no one else nearby before sitting down next to Xu Feng, with an expression as if he wanted to say something mysterious.

Seeing this situation, the veteran workplace worker's vigilance suddenly jumped up - Xu Feng was ready to directly reject whatever the other party said.

Then, he heard Dai Mingli whisper, "Brother, I have been observing you for a while... You came here for your dream, right?"

Hearing this question, Xu Feng, who was full of vigilance, was stunned for a moment.

What are you dreaming about? What are you thinking about?

No, don’t young people nowadays speak so strangely?
I guess capitalist bosses of this era don’t dare to talk to you about dreams anymore!

Seeing that Xu Feng didn't say anything, Dai Mingli started to talk to himself again: "I don't think I'll get in this round. The important thing is to participate. Come on, buddy."

Xu Feng's curiosity about this person reached its peak: "What do you mean?"

"I'm not very popular, and I don't have many connections. This is the limit of what I can do." Dai Mingli laughed. "To be honest, someone has come to me to ask for management fees. Unfortunately, I have spent all my savings on participating in this program. How can I have extra money? I am satisfied just to be on TV once."

"That's just personal influence, pitiful. You're better than me, I hope you can go further. Originality is originality, and it's not like originality hasn't achieved results before, you mustn't let those people on the Internet influence your mentality."

"Don't think I'm being long-winded. I just saw that you are a person of similar status and I wanted to pour out my grievances to you..."

Xu Feng was stunned by what he heard - how could he just say these words to a stranger? Aren't you afraid that someone might secretly record it and send it to the production team?

Even if you are not afraid of being eliminated, aren't you afraid of not being able to continue in the entertainment industry in the future?

Turns out he's just a fool.

As for the authenticity of the content, Xu Feng did not have much doubt. He was invited by the judge Lin Shenghuan using an internal quota, so he would not be embarrassed at this stage.

Whether or not we will meet again in the future is not something we should consider now.

"Don't say this kind of thing to others in the future, especially strangers." Xu Feng suddenly found Dai Mingli interesting and taught the boy earnestly, "Just like a child at home should not easily open the door to a bad uncle."

"OK?!"

In any case, this little episode made Xu Feng feel a lot better.

It is not easy to meet such a simple-minded and sincere person in the entertainment industry which is far less glamorous than on the surface.

In his previous life, Xu Feng had killed countless male and female green tea girls in the workplace, so he did have some vision in judging people.

What’s interesting is that even though Xu Feng deliberately moved away, there were still people walking towards them.

Although the two were talking quietly, there were only eight people in the waiting room, so their conversation would inevitably attract attention. A short man with a big hairdo, tattoos all over his calves and neck, and earrings, lip studs, tongue studs, and nose studs all on his face came over, glanced at the two, then turned his face to the camera and smiled, "What are the two original masters and niche masters discussing? Why don't you say it out loud for everyone to hear?"

This seemed to be fine at first glance, but the sarcastic tone in the voice made Xu Feng raise his eyes.

His name is Meng Guang. He is a mentor and a direct competitor of Lin Shenghuan. They have fought openly and secretly on stage many times. He has also been establishing a unique personality for himself that is independent and does not follow the crowd.

But the effect has been poor. Not only did no one buy it, but he also received a lot of criticism online. His popularity has not increased. In addition, his level is not very high, and he has been relying on his tutor to guarantee him a spot, so he does not have many shots.

In fact, people's aesthetic tastes are much more open now than before. People have long accepted small tattoos on wounds to cover up ugliness and wearing earrings without any psychological barriers.

However, this image of a person covered in large patterns all over his body, as if the metal were embedded into every inch of his skin, still makes most people frown when they see it.

Some more extreme parents even wrote complaint letters to the program team, thinking that this person's image might lead their children astray.

Meng Guang suddenly said this at this time just to take advantage of Xu Feng's traffic and disgust his two competitors without making any noise.

Kind of interesting, is it a provocation? Is it a green tea man?

Xu Feng reached out and held down Dai Mingli, who was a little overwhelmed and wanted to stand up to explain, and said lightly: "I'm discussing the green tea girl at Sister Huan's concert. Why, is she attractive to you?"

Isn't it just sarcastic? Everyone would say the same thing.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the other contestants turned their attention to Meng Guang.

Meng Guang, who had always been looked at with strange eyes and whose tattoos and nails were discussed countless times online, was naturally fragile and sensitive. His smile immediately faltered.

Whatever he wanted to say next was forced back into his mouth.

This Xu Feng is indeed not easy to mess with.

He just wanted to imply that Xu Feng attracted a lot of traffic with his good looks, but he didn't expect the other party to fight back so mercilessly.

Meng Guang was about to back out, but his jealousy made him add, "Yes, I shouldn't have taken advantage of your popularity. It's me who was careless."

The people present may not have seen this kind of person who openly praises but secretly criticizes, who praises but secretly puts down, who is obviously the one who stirs up trouble with his bad mouth, and finally makes himself look like a victim... But who is Xu Feng? Playing such low-level tricks in front of him will only bring humiliation to oneself.

Until now, are you still wearing that fig leaf of being different? Are you using popularity as an excuse?

Then don't blame him for being rude.

Xu Feng's voice was very calm: "Oh, you mean the runes on your body and the parts on your face?"

The air in the waiting room suddenly froze.

If the look that was just now was one of watching the fun, then now it is one of deep shock.

These words directly opened Meng Guang's scars, crushed his already fragile dignity, and sprinkled salt on it, bringing something that everyone knew tacitly to the surface.

Even the staff on the side turned their eyes over.

Isn't this young man a little too bold? !

At a concert, he humiliated Green Tea girls in front of tens of thousands of people, and in front of the camera in front of countless audiences, he directly exposed the past of other contestants!

You know, even though it’s not live yet, there’s still a high possibility that the footage will be edited out!

When shame and indignation reached their extreme point, they turned into extreme anger. Meng Guang suddenly turned his head and wanted to glare at him fiercely, but he was met with a pair of indifferent eyes. He was shocked and stood still.

Just like a student, even if he is full of grievances, he can only obey the lecturer's instructions.

Xu Feng used his ability to lecture people: "You have the freedom to choose to be unique, and the public also has the right to reject those they dislike. So, you want individuality and recognition, and you want to be independent after you become one? Besides, you have put all these things on yourself, and you still want others to treat you as a normal person. Isn't that a waste of time?"

"Just because no one uses this stuff on you to attack you doesn't mean you can just throw a tantrum like a shrew. Do you understand?"

"Finally, I don't know you well, so you'd better keep your mouth shut from now on."

Meng Guang was completely stunned.

In the waiting room, Dai Mingli felt that the air conditioning was a little too cold today, and his back felt cold.

Finally, a staff member in charge of controlling the show walked into the waiting room and shouted, "The program will start recording soon. Everyone, get ready. Remember, today is a live broadcast."

"I'll count down to three to start the live broadcast. Three, two, one!"
