Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 315 He is burning
As the night deepens, the stars twinkle outside the window.

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day.

Many couples around the world often put aside their work temporarily on this day to get together and celebrate the holiday.

It’s a pity that not everyone is qualified to celebrate Valentine’s Day because not everyone has a partner.

At least Zhang Jingyi didn't.

It is said that hormones determine love at first sight, dopamine determines romantic relationships, and oxytocin determines lasting love.

And these three together are love.

So in my body, these strange hormone doses are probably all added to the hormone secretion.

Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why I am obsessed with that senior who is rumored to have a chaotic private life and raise fish all over the world.

Even though meeting him several times in different places could make my heart beat fast, even though he would seriously reply to every WeChat message I sent to him a few hours later, even though he took me to meet his friends last time, and I boldly revealed my feelings under the stimulation of other girls.
Well, there are a lot of reasons!

But Zhang Jingyi still feels that she is not a flower maniac.

Yes, she really liked the senior's face.

But she likes the senior more as a person.

Whether they are cool, gentle, serious, smiling, shining like a superstar on the stage, or dressed like a white moonlight school hunk off the stage.
She likes them all!

And I love it so much!

So almost every night before going to bed she would spend some time watching Shen Juan's videos and fan fiction.

Today is no exception.

Wearing pajamas, lying in bed.

The video currently playing on the phone is called
"【Shen Juan】Burning like a comet, the whole world will know your name! High-energy mixed cut｜Growth"

The content is about Shen Juan's daily life in the practice room when he was just an ordinary trainee a few years ago, his feelings and emotions as a trainee when he was interviewed by the media after becoming a top star through The Rap of China, the evaluation of him by the company's senior management and industry seniors, and the blood and tears he shed during his growth.

"I did very well on that show that spring, but in the end, I didn't debut as smoothly as I imagined. I was in a contract crisis and was hidden by the company. In order to put pressure on me, they sometimes even didn't let me enter the practice room."

"I was very depressed. I was thinking, am I not working hard enough? How long will I live like this?"

The video suddenly switched to David Tao's ruthless comments on Shen Juan in "Star Asia Season 1" because of Shen Juan's constant mistakes during practice: "Shen Juan, is it because you haven't practiced enough? Are you not working hard enough? Is it possible that being an actor is more suitable for you than being an idol?"

Then the scene switches to Shen Juan's depressed and unwilling face with sweat on his face, and the voice-over sounds at the same time:
"The only way to survive in this show is to keep working hard and fighting against yourself."

"I was very naive and uninformed at the time. I didn't have the ability to distinguish those things like an adult, but the only thing I knew was that I absolutely could not give up like that! I was still young, and I would definitely find a chance to start over!"

Inserted was a screenshot of Lehua’s official Weibo post announcing that Shen Juan had joined the company and would go to South Korea to participate in "Produce 101 Season " as a Lehua trainee.

"Produce 101, will this be my last chance?"

"It wasn't a period when we could see results immediately, but we all knew that the water level was rising. If we didn't swim upstream quickly, we would be submerged. Of course, I was very anxious. During that time, I was thinking about what I should do in the show every night before going to bed to make everyone pay attention to me."

"In fact, I can only sleep about four or five hours a day. At that time, I thought that sleeping two hours less would not kill me."

"But later I realized that my body was not strong enough to support such high-intensity training when I was seriously sleep deprived. I thought I overestimated myself. I suddenly felt really insignificant. I once again felt that I lost to myself. It seemed that my dream and I were drifting further and further apart."

"But things are not set in stone yet. I keep telling myself to just hold on a little longer, and then..."

The host of "Produce 202", BoA, announced the final result: "Le Hua, trainee Shen Juan!"

Che Che, the chief director of "China's Hip-Hop", announced loudly: "I declare that Shen Juan is the annual champion of the first year of "China's Hip-Hop"!"

Billboard Music Awards presenter: "The winner of Billboard's Best Social Media Artist is Alex Shen!"

"The winner is Shen Juan!!!"

"Congratulations Shen Juan!!!"

"Shen Juan!!!"

“Alex Shen!!!”

"Shen Juan."

"A singer I like very much, Shen Juan."

"Shen, tired."

Shen Juan's Chinese and English names were read again and again, and glorious scenes of his life that made fans proud and moved flashed quickly on the screen like a kaleidoscope.

From the white moonlight of Seoul talent show to the hip-hop champion of Beijing, from the unknown trainee of Shanghai to the pop star of New York, from the wind of Tokyo to the summer of LA
The screams and shouts of fans and the red sea of support are getting louder and louder. The boy who holds up the trophy and gives acceptance speeches to fans again and again, has a more confident and self-consistent smile on his face, and is becoming more and more high-spirited and unrestrained!

New York Times reporter: "As you can see, several streets around Times Square have been completely crowded and paralyzed. Thousands of fans gathered here are expecting Alex Shen, a super popular pop singer from China, to come here at some point to hold a surprise concert."

BBC News Anchor: "With the explosion of Underrated, Alex Fever is getting worse all over the world!"

News Broadcast host: "Our outstanding young singer Shen Juan recently completed a live performance at the Super Bowl Pre-Music Festival in Minnesota, the United States."

South Korean SBS TV news anchor: "At the US Billboard Music Awards held in Las Vegas recently, Chinese singer Shen Juan defeated the popular idol boy group BTS from Dahanming and won the Best Social Media Artist Award. Let's take a look."

Japanese TV Asahi News Anchor: "The Summer Sonic Music Festival held at Tokyo Cosmos Square recently attracted fans from all over the country because of the participation of Chinese singer Shen Juan. Alex Feiwa, who was born in America in the spring, has spread across the ocean to Japan."

News anchor of Brazil's Globo TV: "Gen Z pop star Alex Shen recently filmed the official theme song MV for the Coca-Cola World Cup at Corcovado Mountain in Rio de Janeiro. Due to the large number of fans watching, the road leading up the mountain was jammed. Please take a detour."

News anchor of France 1 TV: "At 17 pm on January 3, Paris time, the Louis Vuitton 2019 Spring/Summer Men's Fashion Show ended successfully. The famous Chinese singer Shen Juan, the global spokesperson for Louis Vuitton, was invited to attend the show, and local fans in Paris presented him with a heart-stirring light show."

"This spring, it's Alex's time to rise!"

"If you missed Justin Bieber at 20, please don't miss Alex Shen at 20!"

"The Grammy nomination list is out, and Alex Shen becomes the first Asian singer to be nominated for a major Grammy award! Let us applaud this great Asian artist, which means a lot to the whole of Asia and the world."

"Sunflower successfully topped the Billboard Hot 100 this week, which also allowed Shen Juan, the uncrowned king with many hit singles, to break through the bottleneck and be crowned successfully."

"Oh my god! His debut album has already won the first place in global sales! Alex Shen is like a bright meteor streaking across the sky and burning brightly! The only question now is how long will this meteor burn? When will this meteor land? Or, it will never land!"

"Guys! We may all be lucky enough to witness the rise of a superstar of the era! He is changing the world!"

"Of course you have the right to say that I am dreaming, but correspondingly, I also have the right to say that Shen Juan will become one of the important symbols of this era. I am even more optimistic about his future than I am about myself."

Taylor: "He is extremely gifted and talented! His winning mentality often makes me shocked and envious!"

David Tao: "If an artist is an industrial product, then I think Shen Juan has reached the height of being a work of art and a treasure. He has excellent conditions and has the magic to make people quickly fall in love with him and become his fans."

Na Ying: "I don't have any experience to pass on to him. The path he is taking is a path that no other singer in China has been able to take."

Cheng Long: "He has a bright future. I am very optimistic about his future."

Zhang Yixing: "To be honest, I think it's unfair to compare Shen Juan to anyone."

Ouyang Jing: "When I first saw him at the Rap of China audition, I knew he would achieve great success in the future, because I saw his eyes were full of ambition and desire, which is an important asset that all people and artists treasure! And he seemed to be born with it."

Different languages from different countries are intertwined passionately. There are countless stars and celebrities, so many that even fans cannot tell which red carpet look belongs to which event or gala. The stage fireworks soaring into the sky, the boiling red sea of love, the brilliant fireworks rising into the sky, all of them come together to form a gorgeous Ukiyo-e.

This is undoubtedly another life video belonging to Shen Juan.

But at the end of the video, things return to calm.

Lu Yu looked straight at the boy sitting opposite her. The boy was described by the media as crazy but was exceptionally gentle at the moment. Her eyes were full of curiosity about him.

"During the day, I remember you said that when you are in a good mood, you usually have beautiful dreams at night. Can you share with me what kind of beautiful dreams you have?"

“It might sound a little strange and a little abstract.”

"It's okay, you can say whatever you want."

"I dreamed that I was on a train that was moving forward. The wind was so strong that it was hard for people to stand steadily. The train was also moving very fast. If I fell off, I would be smashed to pieces. But I couldn't find a way to get off the train after searching for a long time. Just when I was having a headache, a very big bird whose name I couldn't remember appeared. It flew beside me at the same speed as the train. It seemed that it was the only way for me to escape."

"and then?"

"Then I tried to communicate with it, and suddenly I found that it could speak human language. I asked it if it had a name? What was its name? It said its name was Era."

"Era? So you ended up sitting on it?"

"No, the alarm clock rang suddenly and I woke up from the dream."

"That's such a pity."

“But I don’t feel sorry.”

"why?"

"Because I have already flown into this era in real life and completed the dream that I hadn't completed."

After the video ended, all kinds of emotions burned in her heart and all kinds of images emerged in her mind, making Zhang Jingyi unable to recover for a long time.

Most people in this world can only see the side of Shen Juan that is surrounded by flowers, honor and glory.

Only very few people pay attention to his growth and his mood and feelings on the thorny road of growth.

He really didn't break his promise, he really did it.

He really used the sword forged with his talent and sweat to split all the thorns and bumps on the road of life.

He really became a big star that everyone pays attention to, and he meets his fans who support and like him at every grand occasion, writing a romantic story between idol and fans.

He really has the kind of fresh vitality that makes people burst into tears, the kind of feeling that as long as there is a little light, he will take root and grow vigorously with all his strength, which is really tear-jerking.
After watching the video for the second time and being so shocked by Shen Juan's scattered life fragments that her heart was surging and her mind was agitated, Zhang Jingyi realized that her eyes had already turned red.

Why is there such a passionate life!

Why are there such charming male stars!
Why hasn’t this star who makes people want to chase after him, and this gentle and excellent senior, come to date me?

While wiping her tears with a tissue, the girl felt sad and distressed for the dark past of her senior who always looked so brilliant in front of outsiders, and she shed tears again.

The time just entered 0:0, and when the midnight bell rang, the annual Valentine's Day had arrived.

The phone in Zhang Jingyi's hand suddenly vibrated, which meant that there was new news about the idol he followed.

After returning her gaze to the lit screen of her mobile phone, she suddenly widened her eyes and was surprised to find:
Shen Juan’s Valentine’s Day EP is online!
I have been waiting for this day for so long, how could I forget about it just because of a video?
Zhang Jingyi, you really shouldn’t do this!

But I'd better put my self-blame aside for a while. When my senior's new song comes out, I have to listen to it as soon as possible.

So the impatient girl quickly clicked in.

Album title: "Crush"

1. Cruel Summer

2. "Light Switch" (Charlie Puth)

3. "ROSS AND RACHEL" (Jack Miller)

4. "LAST TEXT" (Jack Miller)

5. "24/7, 365" (elijah woods)

6. "life with u" (lullaboy)

7. "Angel Baby" (Troye Sivan)

8. "Past Lives" (sapientdream)

I have heard of "Canxia" many times.

So just start listening from the second song.

"Yeah why you callin' at 11:30."

"When you only wanna do me dirty."

Although I can't understand the lyrics without reading the translation, it's really hard not to relax to such a relaxing and cheerful melody.

Especially in this situation where she had just shed tears for her idol, Shen Juan's gentle and clear voice sounded in her ears as if he was gently comforting the girl with red eyes.

Trying to make her smile more, trying to tell her:
He's fine now, there's no need to cry for him.

He doesn't need others to shed tears for him.

Just listen to one song after another
Zhang Jingyi opened the Weibo comment section to see what other fans had to say about this EP and Shen Juan himself.

[Seven new songs at once, hahahaha! I'm so excited! Get this before bed tonight! ]

[Ting is good! But I feel that the arrangement of many songs seems to have become simpler. Is it because these songs were practiced by Wa Juan in the early days of his debut? Or is it because he has reached the stage of doing subtraction and less is more? ]

[As I said before, most of these are discarded songs from the first album, so it's normal that their production quality is not as good as those that have already been released.]

[Brother Juan has already said that this is a gift for us, why are you still nitpicking? I didn't ask you to spend money to buy the song. ] [Angel Baby? Am I seeing that right? Well, everyone is welcome to listen to my new English single "Yang Ying". ]

[I didn’t expect Juanjuan had also watched Friends, hahaha! Ross and Rachel is great! ]

[The lyrics of "LAST TEXT" are so sad, but it expresses a positive and optimistic feeling of welcoming a new life. Juan Ge is really telling us that a broken heart is not terrible, and living a good life is the most important thing! ]

【24/7/365, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, I miss you and love you endlessly! 】

[Listening to Life with U by yourself with headphones late at night really gives you a healing feeling. Juanjuan’s voice is so beautiful and gentle!! ]

[If I remember correctly, there seems to be an original version of Past Lives, but my version is completely different from the original, and it really has a great atmosphere. ]

[This is just an appetizer. Don’t forget that tomorrow is the day when Juan Ge’s second album and first single will be released. We must unite and create a better first week result for Juan Ge as much as possible! Whether Juan Ge can get his first untitled single depends on this wave! Brothers and sisters, fight for it! ]

[Yes, yes, the New Year's money I received this year is waiting for this wave! My favorite idol will definitely take off! ]

“As expected of a senior, an EP made up of just a bunch of discarded songs can receive so many positive reviews! That’s amazing!”

Seeing the screen full of praise and encouragement, Zhang Jingyi once again felt proud of her idol's awesomeness.

Last winter, she met the soft-hearted God.

And this winter, the soft-hearted god has become a friend in her WeChat list who she can chat with at any time.

How is this not a huge improvement?
Thinking of this, the girl suddenly got up from the bed, opened the desk drawer, and then carefully took out the things packed in the sealed bag from it.

Close your eyes.

Quietly stroking the patterns on the maple leaves.

The appearance of my senior and the anxious feeling I had when I saw him gradually emerged in my mind.

Such a feeling.
It seems to be quite memorable and fascinating.

Anyway, she likes it very much!

It was already two o'clock in the morning US time when we finished work.

On the way back to the hotel, Shen Juan opened WeChat.

I began to respond one by one to the hints given by the brave fish fry in the fish pond on this special day.

Jiang Peiyao: [How are you doing in the United States recently? Is your work going well? I often see news about you online.]

Shen Juan: [It went very smoothly. How about you? ]

Jiang Peiyao: [I’m fine too! ]

Shen Juan: [Then I feel relieved.]

Jiang Peiyao: [(love) (love)]

Then open another chat window.

Ni Ni: [It’s so lonely to celebrate the holidays alone~]

Shen Juan: [In the capital?]

Ni Ni: [Yes.]

Shen Juan: [Can you see the moon last night? ]

Ni Ni: [It seems that there has been no moon during this period. ]

Shen Juan: [Well, it seems that the moon in Beijing has gone on holiday for the New Year. Do you want me to say good night to you on its behalf? ]

Hearing these words, Ni Ni immediately thought of the scene when the two of them had a late-night conversation in the Mushroom House last year. Her mood suddenly became much better, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up, outlining a gentle and beautiful sweet arc.

[You are a notorious playboy scumbag. Do you need me to remind you of this? Shouldn't you be more proactive? ]

About twenty seconds after the message was sent, Ni Ni received a call from Yueliang in Los Angeles and a voice message.

"It told me that it was sorry that it couldn't say goodnight to you during this period, but it really didn't mean it. Because of work reasons, it now needs to bring bright moonlight to the people of Los Angeles. Then it also said that it will be able to return to work in the country in a while, so Mr. Meow, can you forgive it?"

The smile on Ni Ni's face became more charming. "You'd better talk about the moon instead of yourself."

"So, can Mr. Meow forgive us?"

"I can forgive the moon, but I can't forgive you."

Shen Juan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Is that so? Then what should I do to make you forgive me?"

"Tell me I love you in the most gentle, passionate, sincere, affectionate and handsome tone and attitude."

"I love you."

Listening to Shen Juan's gentle voice flowing into her heart and exploding in her mind, Ni Ni felt numb all over.

After a long time, I finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt comfortable~
Aibao: [Everyone else is celebrating the holidays, but I’m the only one filming alone on the set. I’m so pitiful.]

This lady has been filming "The Captain" during this period. Every day, she either flirts with Shen Juan on WeChat, or calls Shen Juan on video when she returns to the hotel late at night after work. While listening to his pleasant voice and looking at his handsome face, she comforts herself physically and mentally.

The only difference between Aibao and Xiao Hu Nazha is that she is shy and is embarrassed to let Shen Juan see her elementary school.

So Shen Juan could only judge that she was doing something awkward by the thick eyes and expression on her face.

Shen Juan: [Be good, let me pat your dog head~]

Aibao: [I am not a dog]

Shen Juan: [Then what are you? ]

Aibao: [I am your Aibao duck! ]

Then she sent a few selfies in the mirror in cool clothes. Although Aibao is not tall, she has good proportions and a plump body, and still looks very attractive.

So Shen Juan first saved these pictures that no one else could see into the album, and then responded with the same cute tone: [Aibao is so pretty! ]

Zhang Tianai is very happy: [Do you like it? ]

Shen Juan: [I like it.]

Aibao: [Then you have to stay with me for a while after I finish filming this movie! ]

Shen Juan: [Okay, got it, baby.]

After quickly coaxing Aibao, who lacked love and care, into happiness, Shen Juan saw another voice message from Nazha.

"I downloaded the League of Legends for you because I wanted to play with you. I was afraid that we would have no common topics in the future, but you actually said that you have switched to CS:GO. Have you ever considered the feelings of the League of Legends? You are the spokesperson of the League of Legends, have you ever considered my feelings?"

Shen Juan laughed for a long time before sending a voice message back: "Who stipulated that the spokesperson for League of Legends can only play League of Legends, and who stipulated that the spokesperson for Xiaomi can only use Xiaomi? There are so many good games in this world, why do I have to play this one? Maybe I will switch to other games in a few days."

Nazha said aggrievedly: "You are indeed a scumbag who loves the new and hates the old. You clearly promised last time that you would play with me for the rest of my life."

"When did I agree?"

Shen Juan really felt like he was losing track of time and space. Did I really agree and then forget about it? That shouldn't be the case, right?
Fortunately, Nazha quickly dispelled Shen Juan's doubts.

"You said at the time that I was ovulating and that I would be fine in two days, but it's been so long now, and even my new ovulation period is coming soon, but my feelings haven't changed at all. I still want to be your toy and let you play with me for the rest of my life! I don't care whether I'm your backup or not."

"Why do you want to treat yourself like this?"

Shen Juan was really speechless. People who didn't know might think that he had been PUAing Nazha for a long time, turning this top vase who was famous for her looks into a little girl who only had eyes for him and got wet when she saw him.

But he really didn't do any of those things.

It’s all her own imagination and her own strategy!
Nazha asked softly with some dissatisfaction: "How did I humiliate myself? Does liking you mean humiliating yourself?"

"What I mean is that there are so many fun games in the world, there's no need to focus on just one and play it from beginning to end."

"But other games are not as fun as this one! There is only one man like you in this world!"

Shen Juan sighed with mixed feelings, and after thinking for a while, he typed a reply: [It’s up to you. ]

"So you mean you allow me to continue to pester you?" Nazha's tone suddenly became excited.

“That’s your right.”

"Mua~ I love you so much, husband!!!"

Shen Juan curled his lips.

Then click on the next chat window.

Roast Goose: [Juanjuan, today is Valentine's Day, let's play a dice game! The loser and the winner will fall in love! ]

Shen Juan thought about it and decided to agree.

[Okay, you shake first.]

Song Zuer shook the number three.

Seeing this, Shen Juan took out a dice from the emoji pack that would eventually land on three and sent it out, then replied:
[What a pity, it seems we are not destined to be together. ]

Roast Goose: [I’m so stupid! Are you kidding me? I introduced you to so many young and pretty girls from my elementary school, and this is how you treat me???]

Without paying much attention to this little fool, Shen Juan finally clicked on the Hokkaido Randong Team, which had received 99+ messages.

Shen Juan: [All your songs are in it. ]

Tian Bao: [What song? What’s going on? ? ?]

Xiao Xiao: [“Life with U”! ]

Xiao Ye: [Mine is "24/7, 365". ]

Tian Bao: [??? What about mine?]

Tian Bao: [You are still secretly forming a clique and treating people differently, right? How come I don’t know about this? ]

Shen Juan suppressed his laughter: [Don’t you already have one? ]

Tian Bao: [Which one?]

Shen Juan: [The one for Monday and Tuesday.]

Do it seven days a week, every night, every day!

Tian Bao: [You must be kidding! That song was not written for me! You even asked Nazha to shoot the MV! ]

Shen Juan: [But haven’t you already claimed it? ]

Tian Bao: [If I claim it, does that mean it's mine? ]

Shen Juan: [If someone else claimed it casually, I would not only not acknowledge it, but also scold her, saying, "Who are you sending it to?" But if it's you, you can do whatever you want. I am yours in my entirety. There is really no need to be jealous over a song.]

Tian Bao: [You are a scumbag, a big stinky dog, you only know how to say sweet words to fool people all day long. I really want to scold you! ]

Shen Juan: [If you want to curse, just curse. Don’t hold it in. ]

Tian Bao: [Then I’m coming~]

Shen Juan: [Come on, come on, gkd! ]

Tian Bao: [Shen Juan, you big fool!!!]

Xiao Xiao: [.]

Xiao Ye: [Are you okay? (Yang Mi emoticon pack)]

Shen Juan was also disgusted by her uncharacteristically cute appearance, and immediately typed out the following:

[If you wanted to make me die of embarrassment with my toes tapping on the ground and goosebumps all over my body in this way, then I have to admit, Weiwei dog, you almost succeeded. ]

Tian Bao: [Hee hee! ]

Tian Xiwei, who was spending the winter vacation in her hometown of Tongliang, was holding her mobile phone and laughing non-stop, which attracted strange looks from her parents.

If it were in the past, she would never call Shen Juan like that, because she thinks acting cute is really disgusting.

She is a person who doesn't get along with green tea!
but now?
I am no longer the same Tian Xiwei.

After being honest with these stinky dogs and learning from their experience, I now have a very thick skin!
No one can penetrate my armor anymore!

Now I have completely entered my prime.
