After offending capital, my songs became more and more popular.

Chapter 270 The All-Round ACE! Bonus content coming your way!
"Ber, who came up with this idea?"

Before Shen Ming'en could even utter a few words of complaint, Feng Yucan, emboldened by alcohol, couldn't help but start cursing in the street, shouting:

"What kind of unscrupulous person came up with this program? No one but professionals can understand this type of performance. Is it reasonable to just accuse someone of this out of nowhere?"

Forming a "choir" and coordinating a "choral" type of program is something that even people like Chen Guangrong and Yao Changyu wouldn't understand, let alone Shen Ming'en.

That kind of difficulty is even greater than Shen Mingen's transition from a singer to an actor!
This is a classic example of "deliberately making things difficult for someone"!
"Didn't they say they changed the troupe leader?" Feng Yucan asked. "Wasn't that troupe leader supposed to be the kind who wouldn't cause trouble? Why is it like this now?"

If I remember correctly, arranging programs like this is usually the job of the theater troupe leader, right?
Could it be that Director Bai of "Guoyu Guoyun" is deliberately targeting Shen Ming'en, just like the previous troupe leader Zhao Qu?

What the hell...

"Ugh……"

Upon hearing this, Teacher Chen Guangrong sighed silently and shook his head, saying:

"This wasn't decided by the troupe leader, it was decided by higher-ups, and there's nothing Lao Bai can do about it."

"What???"

It would have been better if Teacher Chen hadn't said that; his words left Feng Yucan even more bewildered...

How did this get involved with the higher-ups?
If I remember correctly, Shen Ming'en didn't seem to have offended any people in this industry, right?

Shen Ming'en was also feeling a headache coming on. Why did he always feel like he was "enemy of the whole world"?

What are you doing?!
Is it for real that a bunch of people targeting him always pop up out of nowhere?!

Faced with the questioning gazes of the two young men, Shen Ming'en and Feng Yucan, Chen Guangrong hesitated, clearly indicating that the next topic was... not so easy to bring up.

People say "trouble comes from the mouth." Some words, even if you don't let outsiders hear them, can easily leave a "time bomb" for yourself once they are spoken.

So after a brief moment of thought, Teacher Chen finally said something very "subtly":
"In the end, it's all the entertainment industry. Those capital companies and us are still connected by blood. We can't really sever ties."

Actually, Teacher Chen has already made it quite clear...

To put it bluntly, it's simply that Shen Mingen has offended too many people and made too many enemies. Whether it's out of "revenge" or out of "envy" of the explosive popularity of his "Spark Chapter", they all want to get rid of him.

He has taken up far too many resources, just like the "Great Emperor" in fantasy novels. If he doesn't do it, no one else can attain enlightenment!

The laws of heaven and earth only allow one "Emperor" to exist in the domestic entertainment industry. If Emperor Ming'en wants to stand firm, he must withstand the "bombardment" from other sects and forces!
"Oh my god, I really am..."

Feng Yucan wanted to complain, but after opening his mouth, he couldn't help but sigh silently, shake his head, and go down to drink in silence.

Sometimes he felt helpless towards Shen Ming'en. This father of his was just too stubborn. He couldn't bear the slightest grievance and was completely ignorant of social etiquette, which led to him making enemies everywhere and being humiliated wherever he went.

Now things are really messed up...

The leaders of the "Silk Road Blossoms" troupe have given him a performance task that he can't complete no matter what. Should he do it or not?

If we're going to get it done, how?!

These are all incredibly difficult problems!

Regarding this, Professor Chen Guangrong had a different opinion, waving his hand and saying:
"Don't be discouraged, this isn't necessarily a bad thing."

"What do you mean?" Shen Ming'en asked.

“The higher-ups said,” Teacher Chen chuckled, “If you want to do it, then do the choir performance; if you don’t want to, then there’s no need for you to go. If we can’t do it, then we can just not go, right?”

To put it bluntly, if we can't afford to offend them, can't we at least avoid them?

It would have been better if Teacher Chen hadn't said that, because once she did...

Shen Ming'en: "..."

To be honest, sometimes Shen Ming'en really has a 1.5-word connection with Teacher Chen.

In other words, whenever something happens, Teacher Chen's solution for Shen Ming'en is always to "run away"!
If we can't afford to mess with them, we just won't go!

At worst, we can just give up and nobody can do anything about it!

Shen Ming'en thought he had a solution when he heard Shen Ming'en say "it's not a bad thing," but what a waste of his expectations!

“Teacher Chen, I’m definitely going,” Shen Ming’en said, “There are so many people trying to make things difficult for me. If I keep avoiding them, won’t I be blacklisted immediately?!”

Shen Mingen's words are actually correct. Why didn't he leave when the BYD group treated him like that in the early days of "Chinese Music Awards"?

Isn't it because some jobs are "necessary" for him?
Oh, if the Chinese Music Awards suppresses him, he leaves; if he goes elsewhere to complain about others making things difficult for him, he leaves too. Given the nature of those capitalists, they'll definitely make things difficult for him wherever they go...

So Shen Mingen just kept hiding and dodging until he was eventually blacklisted?

Isn't that stupid?!
Shen Ming'en has never said he would avoid difficulties along the way. He has survived so many episodes of "Chinese Music Awards: Red Song Season", so what is a mere "duet program"?
"...No, brother," Feng Yucan couldn't help but ask, "Do you understand the choral singing type of program?"

The choral pieces are quite different from the pop songs and revolutionary songs they are currently creating!
It requires more than just a meaningful and complete work; it also requires the arrangement of the song according to the high, middle, low, and other vocal parts, and the requirements for "arrangement" and "composition" are extremely high.

Yes!
indeed!

Shen Mingen is known as an "all-around ace" in the Chinese entertainment industry. In the eyes of his fans, he is proficient in all kinds of musical styles, and even opera and Cantonese are no problem for him...

but!

This doesn't mean he can handle choral songs!
Furthermore...

Where are they going next?

We're not going anywhere else, we're going to Da Piao Liang's place!
They are very particular about performances like "bel canto singing" and "orchestra ensemble"!

Many foreigners have very high "taste"!

Under such circumstances, even the slightest flaw in Shen Ming'en's "duet" type songs can easily be magnified infinitely!

Not to mention, he probably has more than just a tiny flaw!

I'm afraid that the works he produces will be flawed in every single one of them!

That would be a complete joke!

If such a joke were to happen, Shen Ming'en's hard-earned "international reputation" would be completely ruined!
It's worth noting that Shen Ming'en has gained some international fame due to songs like "GJ Song" which have a special nature, and many foreigners have a positive impression of him because of these songs...

all in all!
For Feng Yucan, no matter what, Shen Mingen's decision to give up the role was the right one!
"...What the hell do you know..."

Shen Ming'en was too lazy to explain to Feng Yucan, so he asked Teacher Chen, "If I agree to do this type of choral program, can the orchestra or theater troupe help me with that?"

In fact, given Shen Ming'en's current reputation in the industry, finding some reliable choral groups shouldn't be a problem.

But they've already presented their troupe with so many problems, and he's already "sacrificed" so much for the troupe, shouldn't they at least help them out in some way?

"This one……"

To be honest, before coming here, Teacher Chen never expected that Hajime would actually agree, so he hadn't considered the condition Shen Ming'en had proposed either. Now that Shen Ming'en had suddenly brought it up, he really didn't know how to answer...

“I can help you talk to them,” Teacher Chen nodded and said, “Your request is reasonable, I believe they won’t refuse.” “Don’t try that on me, Teacher Chen…” Shen Ming’en thought to himself, “You’re really putting on airs! How dare you do that to me?”
You people with official positions are really...

"Ha ha……"

Old Chen laughed and said, "Don't give me a hard time, or I won't be able to make a decision!"

"Then what can you do!" Shen Ming'en rolled his eyes.

Old Chen was about to retort, but just as he opened his mouth, something suddenly occurred to him, and he put on a "sudden inspiration" expression, saying to Shen Ming'en:
"As for the orchestra, I don't think it should be too difficult..."

"?"

This sudden turn of events left Shen Ming'en completely bewildered. Shen Ming'en couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean?"

He thought Teacher Chen could help solve it, but Teacher Chen just waved his hand and said:
"I can't solve this for you, so don't look at me, but your girlfriend's family should be able to help."

At this point, Teacher Chen let out a couple of strange, chuckling laughs, which made Shen Ming'en extremely uncomfortable...

So this means... he still has to trouble Yao Shuli?

……

Although Shen Ming'en, Feng Yucan, and Teacher Chen were not in the same age group, they got along quite well and were quite compatible. As a result, the meal actually went on quite late; it started around seven o'clock but lasted until almost eleven o'clock...

Teacher Chen drove himself here, and Feng Yucan helped him find a designated driver. Both of them had been drinking, and following the principle of "don't drink and drive, and don't drive after drinking," neither of them drove and both used designated drivers.

When we arrived at Feng Yucan's apartment, it was a little after 11:40, almost midnight...

Shen Ming'en had originally planned to call Yao Shuli, but then he thought it was already very late, so he decided to call her tomorrow.

Just as Shen Ming'en finished washing up and was about to rest, his phone suddenly rang.

When I picked it up, I found it was a message from Yao Shuli.

Yao Shuli: Are you asleep?

Shen Ming'en grinned, feeling that he and Yao Shuli still had some kind of tacit understanding. When he missed her, she would send him a message. This feeling was really not bad.

Click-clack, Shen Ming'en typed a few words and replied: "Not yet, why aren't you asleep yet at this hour?"

"Ding dong."

Yao Shuli replied almost instantly, sending a voice message. Shen Ming'en opened it, and Yao Shuli's melodious voice filled his ears:

"I miss you."

This was something Yao Shuli found very difficult to say, so she spoke haltingly...

But it is precisely because of her slightly stuttering way of speaking that she appears even more adorable and charming.

Shen Ming'en knew that she must be in a convenient position to send a voice message, so he didn't hesitate to make a video call...

"Ding."

On the other end of the phone, Yao Shuli answered immediately, and her gentle and charming face quickly appeared on the video screen.

It was nighttime, and Yao Shuli appeared to have just finished washing up. She was wearing a white silk nightgown that looked quite nice to the touch, as it was somewhat reflective...

But Shen Ming'en's attention was not focused on the clothes Yao Shuli was wearing...

Perhaps because she rarely video chats with others, Yao Shuli was currently video chatting with Shen Mingen in a "lying down" position, her elbows propped up on her clothes...

Because the pajamas she was wearing were quite loose, the clothes would hang loosely in the air in this position.

When the phone is parallel to the white blanket on the bed, that's the angle from which the photo was taken...

Good grief, isn't this giving Shen Ming'en a treat in the middle of the night?!
Just that one moment!
Shen Mingen's eyes widened in disbelief!
"what happened to you?"

At first, Yao Shuli didn't realize the seriousness of the situation. It seemed that Shen Mingen was on a large screen while she was on a small screen, so she didn't see it clearly immediately.

"Cough, no...it's nothing."

She couldn't see anything wrong; Shen Ming'en, that old fox, was really cunning, and he didn't give her a hint...

Take a look if you can, who the hell would have thought that Yao Shuli, who is so thin, would be so well-endowed!
Shen Ming'en had a deep understanding of this when he visited the set in Shanghai last time...

"Ok?"

Yao Shuli knew something was amiss when she saw Shen Mingen, so she zoomed in on her own image. What she saw...

"what!"

Her pretty face flushed red instantly, and with a gasp, she slammed her phone face down on the bed!

"You scoundrel!" she shouted.

"Oh dear..." Shen Ming'en is shameless, saying, "It's not like I haven't seen it before..."

“…Shut up!” Even though there were two of them, Yao Shuli blushed deeply upon hearing such words.

"Ha ha……"

Shen Ming'en found her especially adorable at that moment.

A moment later, Yao Shuli straightened her clothes, sat up with her phone in hand, and after carefully examining the footage to make sure there was nothing inappropriate for children, she glared resentfully at Shen Ming'en and said:
"You're so mean, you didn't even warn me..."

"Then I thought you were rewarding me..." Shen Ming'en said, scratching his head.

"You still dare to talk!" Yao Shuli pointed her finger at the screen.

"Okay, okay..."

Shen Mingen wisely stopped talking, otherwise Yao Shuli would have been too embarrassed to continue the call.

After briefly inquiring about Yao Shuli's work progress and updating her on his own filming schedule, Shen Ming'en asked a question:
"We have resources like... a choir or something, could you help me find one?"

They were having a good chat, and Yao Shuli and Shen Ming'en were enjoying themselves, but then Shen Ming'en said the words "resources like choirs"...

Yao Shuli's expression suddenly changed.

The smile that had been on her delicate, pretty face began to freeze.

Shen Ming'en: "???"

What... happened?
Could I have been tricked by that old Chen guy?
