This man knows how to hype

Chapter 595 If You Are Not Even as Good as an Amateur Like Me (Long Chapter)

Inside Ivy's office.

Xu Xiyu looked at the staff arranged by Yu Yuyu in the audience seats and heard the news.

I couldn't help but laugh and said, "Objectively speaking, Guo Jinwei is still amazing. He was able to finish the crosstalk in this situation. In this respect, his disciples are really far inferior to him."

"It's indeed far from enough. I heard that the second performer was obviously out of sorts and the rhythm of the jokes was terrible." Yu Yuyu gloated while eating the freshly washed fruit.

After that, she added: "Also, I heard that Li Xiangrui and the others have already gone backstage for the performance."

"Then it must be lively backstage?" Xu Xiyu laughed when he heard that.

It is indeed lively.

Guo Jinwei was over 50 years old, but at this moment he was squatting next to Zang Qingdong, crying like a child.

There is a saying: The person who wronged you knows how wronged you are better than you do.

As mentioned earlier, Li Xiangrui and Wu Jiming were not sure that it was Guo Jinwei who instigated Zhang Jixing to ask them to go to the yacht.

But it doesn't matter whether it is true or not. After what happened now, the performance will definitely be stopped. Since I can't keep my job, I have to protect my family, right?

Therefore, the only explanation for this matter to the outside world is, "My master has done too many wrong things, and now he is afraid of Xu Xiyu's revenge, so he wants to push us disciples out to take the responsibility."

But he didn't want to have a bad reputation, so he asked his brother-in-law to trick us onto the yacht, and after we were on the yacht, we were forced to drink.

Once he got drunk and was influenced by the atmosphere, he hugged and kissed these women, but he didn't make any substantial mistakes.

Of course, they actually have another explanation, which is that they are filming a movie, and the so-called hugging videos are actually videos from the set.

But this statement is too risky and can easily be refuted. It is best to bring Guo Jinwei into the picture, because this kind of thing is simply hard to explain.

Didn’t you see that the other disciples around him, even his close partner of many years, Jiang Hua, began to doubt whether Guo Jinwei really did it?

It can only be said that years of accumulation of "character problems" have finally led to an explosion today.

However, no matter what, the top priority for Guo Jinwei now is to stop this statement.

Good man, instructing his brother-in-law to frame his apprentice?
Such rumors must not be spread, let alone spread out, or else how can the Jixiang Society be managed? How can I behave in front of my disciples?

Thinking of this, Guo Jinwei, who was eager to divert the conflict, said to Zang Qingdong in a sad voice with tears and snot mixed together: "Master, there is a villain who wants to harm me!

I don't know who told these two kids to slander me, but they insisted on putting some unfounded accusations on me. As the saying goes, if a son is not well educated, it is the fault of the father; if a child is not well educated, it is the laziness of the teacher.

They were both fooled by others at the same time. I don't blame them. It's because I, as their teacher, didn't teach them well.

However, no matter what happens between me and my apprentice, it is our internal matter. How can it be instigated by outsiders?
You saw it today. What a coincidence! As soon as these kids did something wrong outside, someone immediately ran to the audience and said to me, "Give him back his hard-earned money."

We crosstalk performers make a living by selling tickets for our skills and have never done anything harmful, deceptive or fraudulent. Why would someone come to us and ask for our hard-earned money out of nowhere?

There are villains who want to slander me, destroy my disciples, destroy the Jixiang Society, and destroy our entire crosstalk industry, Master..."

At this point, Guo Jinwei was already crying.

Zang Qingdong was also furious when he heard this. He stroked Guo Jinwei's head and trembled as he said, "Who, who is this traitor? Who is so vicious?!"

As soon as these words came out, Zang Qingdong's grandson Zang Zhixing felt something was wrong, and quickly pulled his grandfather's clothes and said, "Grandpa, you are not in good health, let's not get too excited."

Then, he said to Guo Jinwei and the others, "Teacher Guo, I think I should send the old man back first. It's too chaotic today. We can talk after you have dealt with it."

After saying that, he was about to push Zang Qingdong away.

But Zang Qingdong got angry at this time and scolded, "You haven't finished talking yet, where are you going? I must seek justice for Jin Wei today!

When he was young, he was bullied by his peers. I didn’t know about it at that time and didn’t help him. Now he has worked diligently for so many years and is in his 50s. He is still being bullied. I won’t accept it! ”

"Grandpa!" Zang Zhixing was anxious. You are old and you don't even know how to use a mobile phone. What do you know why you are meddling in this?

Guo Jinwei just wanted to change the subject, so he took advantage of the situation and said, "Master, I am satisfied with your words. We, the younger generation, can handle these things."

"Yes, Grandpa, let's go and not cause trouble here." Zang Zhixing pushed his grandfather out without saying anything.

When they reached the corridor, he leaned over and whispered in Zang Qingdong's ear: "Grandpa, Guo Jinwei wants you to teach Xu Xiyu a lesson. We can't be fooled by him. Is Xu Xiyu an ordinary person? We can't offend him..."

"I can't afford to offend him!" My goodness, before he could finish his words, Zang Qingdong exploded instantly, and a roar instantly echoed in the corridor.

This noise naturally attracted everyone in the lounge to come out and see.

Seeing this, Zang Zhixing was about to say something to fool people.

But I saw my grandfather had already slapped the armrest of the wheelchair and yelled, "I don't think you dare to push me away today!"

Whether in terms of age or seniority in the crosstalk world, I have reached the top. An old artist like me, everyone must be polite when seeing me. What does it mean that I can't afford to offend Xu Xiyu?
In the entire literary and art world, is there anyone that I cannot afford to offend?
Thinking of this, Zang Qingdong said to Guo Jinwei who was walking towards him quickly: "Jinwei, is the traitor you are talking about that Xu Xiyu?!"

"Grandpa! This matter has to do with Xu..." Zang Zhixing was really anxious now. Are you still planning to cause trouble for Xu Xiyu?

"Shut up." Zang Qingdong interrupted, and then said to Guo Jinwei, "Is it him? We were talking about him before the incident just now."

"Master...this..." Guo Jinwei didn't know how to answer.

His own franchisee came to cause trouble, and his own apprentices went to a yacht to gather a crowd. How could these two things be related to Xu Xiyu?
Guo Jinwei's hesitation made Zang Qingdong feel that he had guessed correctly: "Okay, I get it. There are some things you can't say, so I'll say them!"

After that, he turned to Li Xiangrui and said, "Hey, come here, record a video for me and post it online. I want to publicly ask what this kid surnamed Xu wants to do."

Good fellow, Zang Zhixing was really dumbfounded when these words came out, and hurriedly stopped him and said: "Grandpa, this matter is not certain yet. You rashly ran to question it, isn't it..."

His words were interrupted by his grandfather again: "What do you mean by rash? Even if he is rash, as a senior, what can I do if I give him a few words of advice?

Doesn't he understand the principle of correcting mistakes if there are any, and learning from them if there are none? It's embarrassing, get out of here, it's really embarrassing."

Zang Qingdong pushed Zang Zhixing aside and said to Li Xiangrui, "Hurry up, kid."

"Hey~ Hey, here it comes." Li Xiangrui finally reacted. In his opinion, if Zang Qingdong came out to question Xu Xiyu, the public opinion would definitely be more chaotic. By then, a small-time person like him might be able to hide himself, which is a good thing!
Guided by this mentality, Li Xiangrui is full of interest in recording videos.

The other six people on the yacht also realized this benefit.

As a result, the entire corridor was filled with voices of gratitude for the "master's righteous words", with the involvement of these seven people, and now it was the performance stage.

Guo Jinwei and others couldn't stop them even if they wanted to.

Just like that, about an hour later, the video #Zang Qingdong questioning Xu Xiyu# appeared on the Internet.

Wow, Xu Xiyu and Yu Yuyu never expected that such a video would pop up. The two sat in the office and clicked on the video. The more they watched, the more confused they felt.

"Xu Xiyu, you are also a rising star in our literary and artistic circles. Logically, you should respect and appreciate Jin Wei, a senior who is as outstanding as you. Why do you have to bully and humiliate him?"

"There is no hierarchy on stage, but the rules are set off stage. I was just joking with you on stage, why do you have to make a big deal out of it?"

"Jin Wei didn't do anything wrong. He privately held a banquet to apologize and publicly posted an apology on Weibo. Why are you still holding on to him?"

"The crosstalk world is dwindling in talent these days. Jin Wei has worked so hard to train so many outstanding children. Why do you insist on taking advantage of your power to bully others and ruin them?"

"Xu Xiyu, you are also a member of our literary and artistic circle. Are you satisfied only if you want to destroy Chinese crosstalk and the traditional culture left by our ancestors?"

Watching Zang Qingdong's complaints in the video, Yu Yuyu couldn't hold it in any longer, and complained with a constipated expression: "Is this old man confused? Who is picking on whom?

Isn't it Guo Jinwei who has been chasing us like a dog? And in Zang Qingdong's mouth, we have become the ones who are endless? Are all the crosstalk performers so unreasonable? "

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiyu scratched his head and was about to speak.

But Yu Yuyu asked again: "Did Guo Jinwei cheat this old man? Good fellow, Guo Jinwei is too bad, he even cheated the old man?"

The more Yu Yuyu spoke, the angrier she became.

But Xu Xiyu had already looked at the comment section of the video.

[Teacher Zang has spoken out, which shows that the rumors about Jixiangshe on the Internet are all false]

[Where are the haters? Come out and speak up. Teacher Zang has come out to clear the name of Jixiangshe.]

[As far as I know, Mr. Zang has never performed more than 10 crosstalks in his life. He is famous only because Shi Qingsheng accepted him on behalf of his teacher. He is not an official, so what can he prove by speaking out?]

[It proves that those who perform crosstalk are always unreasonable]

[Indeed, whether it is the gathering of actors in Jixiangshe or Guo Jinguo's scam of franchisees, what do these two things have to do with Xu Xiyu? Isn't it ridiculous to have to change the subject and make random accusations? ]

[It’s funny, right? Isn’t crosstalk about making people laugh? That’s their job.]

[If you have the time, why not respond to public opinion directly? You are really a fool to find such an old fool to take the blame.]

【Old man, the Internet has memory. The grievances between Guo Jinwei and Xu Xiyu are well known to the public. They filmed other people's projects, damaged other people's scripts, reported other people's movies, and hoped that they would not die well.

Everyone remembers these immoral things, but Xu Xiyu said nothing from beginning to end. We only see people from your Jixiang Society jumping around on the Internet. Who can you fool with your Spring and Autumn style writing now? 】

Seeing that public opinion was unsurprisingly leaning towards him after Zang Qingdong's overly outrageous remarks, it was no surprise that the public opinion was leaning towards him.

Xu Xiyu showed a puzzled expression and said, "Isn't Guo Jinwei going too far? Is he really planning to drag this 90-year-old man out to be scolded?"

"Maybe they think that you don't dare to be disrespectful to Zang Qingdong?"

"I am indeed a person who respects the elderly and loves the young." Xu Xiyu laughed when he heard this.

As he was talking, he opened Station D on his computer, and then found a UP host named [Cyber ​​Storyteller], and said to Yu Yuyu: "Xiao Yu, arrange for someone to contact this UP host."

"Why contact him?" Yu Yuyu leaned over puzzledly.

"He is a skilled person. I accidentally saw his video last time. He used AI to replicate the voices of Guo Jinwei's master Jia Yugao and his master's master Shi Qingsheng, and produced a lot of crosstalk videos."

As Xu Xiyu was speaking, he found a video and clicked on it, which showed cartoon versions of the deceased Shi Qingsheng and Jia Yugao performing crosstalk.

The voices are exactly the same as they were when they were alive, and the tone and rhythm of their speech are also 80% similar. It's just that the content of the work is really not good, and it can only be said that it is a feeling to listen to.

Yu Yuyu looked at it and asked in confusion: "So?"

“I plan to write some crosstalk works, and ask this UP host to collect the audio sources of Guo Jinwei’s proud disciples, and then use AI to make some crosstalk.

Didn't Zang Qingdong say that I wanted to ruin Chinese crosstalk? I want to see what he would say if the works of Guo Jinwei's favorite students were not as good as those made by an outsider like me using AI? "

As soon as these words came out, Yu Yuyu's eyes lit up instantly, but just as they lit up, they turned into worry: "Brother, crosstalk is not easy to write, let's not try to be brave..."

"I'm not trying to be pretentious. I really can write. Don't you believe me?" Xu Xiyu didn't want to pretend to be like this, but someone forced him to do so.

"I believe it, of course I believe it." Yu Yuyu replied without any hesitation, and then she worriedly said, "But what if... they sue us for infringement?"

"Show that the video is non-commercial, and then let them sue me. Let the public see how bold they are to sue me. I wish they would sue me!" Xu Xiyu said with a sneer.

The lawsuit filed by the actors of Jixiangshe will only push the popularity and reputation of the crosstalk they wrote to a higher peak.

Thinking of this, he continued to Yu Yuyu: "Go and contact them quickly. I'll start writing now. Let's try to finish it as soon as possible."

"Yeah." Yu Yuyu said, took out his mobile phone and tapped the UP host information on the computer screen, then ran out.

As for Xu Xiyu, he created a new document.

After thinking for a while in front of the screen, he typed out five big words on the keyboard - I want to make a movie.

This is one of Guo Degang's early classic works.

His conflict with Guo Jinwei started from the movie, so it’s most appropriate to write about this in the first crosstalk.
