Have you ever been a celebrity? Why are you writing about entertainment?

Chapter 192 What made you like this?
"If you could be reborn into elementary school, what would you do?"

During a break in filming, Chi Leying's casual question caught the attention of the production team. The question was quite interesting and timely.

They quickly pointed their cameras at Yu Wei, who was busy grading students' essays, wanting to hear what he had to say...

"Hitting the teacher, kissing the school beauty, and burning the curtains."

Yu Wei seemed to answer without thinking, continuing to mark his composition with red pen, but this answer directly startled everyone in the office.

Chi Leying didn't expect him to answer like that. The production team felt that his answer was inappropriate, while the other teachers felt like they had been beaten up for no reason.

What did the teacher do to you?

That seems a bit too extreme. To be so outspoken, it's like they don't consider everyone an outsider.

Even with her high EQ, Chi Leying didn't know how to respond for a moment. She was doing this kind of thing in elementary school; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was a promising young woman.

"Just kidding, this is a scene from my movie 'Goodbye Mr. Loser'."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, thinking that was what Yu Weizhen thought. As for the movie plot, exaggeration for dramatic effect was understandable.

Anyone who pays even a little attention to Yu Wei knows about this movie; it seems to be a rebirth comedy, which makes sense.

So, after being reborn, the protagonist of this movie openly beats up his teacher, kisses the school beauty, and burns the curtains? Is it really that exciting?

To be honest, after hearing this, they were actually quite curious and would definitely go to the cinema to support it.

Yu Wei's words had a hint of advertising, but the advertising effect was quite good, successfully generating their anticipation.

"The script has been finished for a while now, when will filming begin?"

Chi Leying was aware of this, after all, Yu Wei's retelling of the script on the show was very popular, so it would be hard for her not to know.

"After the show ends."

Since the conversation had unexpectedly turned to movies, Yu Wei seized the opportunity to ask, "Would you be interested in acting in one?"

I want to get something for free! Let me get something for free now!

Are there any roles that would suit me?

Chi Leying did not agree directly, but skipped the invitation to discuss the details, which was tantamount to her tacit consent.

Yu Wei's works are of guaranteed quality. Even if the movie is just average, he himself is worth investing in and befriending. Chi Leying had no reason to refuse.

"Yes, she can play the school beauty."

Chi Leying, who was dragging the online class progress bar, paused with her index finger, but quickly pressed it back down. Wasn't she going to kiss the school beauty? Was she trying to take advantage of her?

She took it as Yu Wei joking and didn't take it to heart. As for filming, it was fine; one should still have a certain level of professionalism.

Although she hasn't tried it yet...

Primary school teachers aren't too busy when they don't have classes, provided they're not homeroom teachers. Being a primary school homeroom teacher isn't easy; you have to manage academics, enforce discipline, and occasionally even soothe the children.

These kinds of things are impossible to prevent. It takes forever to mediate when someone steals another person's pencil, and you have to communicate with the parents a lot.

Of course, this is not something Yu Wei should worry about. He can steal a moment from his busy schedule to write in the office. This would be strange for other teachers, but it is normal for him.

Just before lunch break, Tong Yulu finally sent in her competition video, in which she chose an old love song called "Brother and Sister".

The song itself isn't anything special, but when combined with GieGie's iconic scenes, it becomes somewhat abstract, and Yu Wei didn't even have the courage to play it in the office.

Never mind, let the readers eat first.

Yu Wei quickly finished writing the new chapter, and the native AI Liu Mangbing sang the same popular internet song, "May all the good things in the world be intertwined with you."

This song isn't bad, it's just superficial and formulaic, with some flowery lyrics. However, it's still much better than the current trendy songs that just fill in lyrics for the sake of rhyming.

Even popular songs are declining in quality...

Gentle songs are not really suitable for AI to sing, since AI's biggest flaw is that it lacks emotion, and no matter how precise the melody is, it can't sing out that feeling.

Yu Wei couldn't say whether a cold, impersonal internet hit or an abstract, unconventional approach would win. He hadn't intentionally arranged a weak opponent for Tong Yulu; whether she could win depended on fate.

Almost the instant he released the new chapter, Chi Leying, who was staring blankly at her desk, hummed in response, clearly having received an update notification.

Chi Leying doesn't actually read Yu Wei's novels, but since the start of the "Top Idol" competition, she still occasionally clicks in to follow the gossip.

The fake match was still too exciting!
It seems like it's almost Tong Yulu's turn to compete, so she needs to pay even closer attention to her rival's movements.

She quickly flipped through the new chapter and swiped to the next page. The first entry was a new song by the AI ​​native. Chi Leying planned to listen to it first, as she still had to give Yu Wei face.

Listening to the gentle melody, she nodded, seemingly quite pleased.

When Chi Leying heard the line "The birds are singing and the grass is growing, and the one you love is on the way," she felt a warmth in her heart, as if she were being gently embraced by a simple kindness.

The lyrics are very evocative; the image of finally embracing each other after weathering storms made her unconsciously start imagining it, and the scene was beautiful.

Although the AI's emotionless voice weakened the goodwill and the songs had limitations, Chi Leying quite liked this style.

What impressed her most was the ending: "Let the starlight add a touch of rainbow, let the cherry blossoms secretly kiss your forehead."

The gentle touch of cherry blossoms on the forehead, the warmth of starlight and rainbow intertwined—such a girlish scene, I wonder how Yu Wei came up with it…

It’s not easy to fight!

It depends on what you compare it to. This song is only average among Yu Wei's works, but it's definitely competitive in the market.

The gentle melody and soothing style easily attract the attention of short videos, and it's only a matter of time before it becomes popular.

It wasn't that she was belittling Tong Yulu; it's just that mass-produced girl group idols like them might not actually become as popular as this song.

With her mediocre skills, can she really win this song? Hopefully, she can get a strong guest performer to carry her. For some reason, Chi Leying even felt a little worried; if Tong Yulu were to fall in this round, she would feel quite sorry for her.

Is this the bond between enemies?
"Go outside for some fresh air."

Seeing that Chi Leying had finished listening to "May All the Good Things in the World Be Intertwined with You" and was about to listen to the next song, Yu Wei made an excuse and left the office.

The scene was too beautiful for him to bear.

Chi Leying didn't think much of it, but turned to the next page with a little curiosity. She knew the song Tong Yulu had chosen; it was a good song, but whether she could sing it well was another matter.

She thought the video would get straight to the point, but to her surprise, it started with a slice of daily life.

Tong Yulu wore a simple ponytail with a red bow in her hair, held a lollipop in her hand, and sat on the back of an electric scooter. Her manager appeared to be in front of her, but was wearing a helmet.

The evening breeze ruffled her wispy hair, making her look fresh and sweet. Even though Chi Leying didn't get along with her, she had to admit that Tong Yulu was quite pretty.

Is this a genuine plan to make a music video? Are they going to compensate for the lack of singing ability with visuals?

It still doesn't seem to work. Nowadays, netizens have seen everything. No matter how well the video is edited, if the content is bad, people won't buy it.

Just as Chi Leying was anticipating how the other person would react, Tong Yulu in the video suddenly said in an cloyingly sweet voice, "Brother, if you buy this for me, your girlfriend won't be angry, will she?"

Her voice sounded like it had been pickled in saccharin, and Chi Leying instantly froze, holding her phone and standing there as if she had been struck on an acupuncture point.

What kind of number is this?
However, the torment had only just begun; Tong Yulu's lines were like a series of bombs hitting our eardrums.

"It's pretty good, bro, have a bite... Ah! If your girlfriend knew we were sharing a lollipop, wouldn't she be jealous?"

"If you give me a ride on your little electric scooter, she won't beat me up, will she?"

The way he dragged out the last syllable of each sentence, coupled with his suddenly widened eyes and distorted mouth, made Chi Leying gasp involuntarily.

Damn it!
She instinctively clutched her chest, feeling as if an invisible hand was squeezing her heart. Was this some kind of death sentence?

Has this guy finally gone mad? Feeling he can't win, he's decided to take revenge on society?
Vicious!

If she could still hold back by this point, the final line of the clip, accompanied by a mesmerizing eye-rolling expression, "Unlike me, I only feel sorry for Giegie," completely killed the competition.

Chi Leying almost threw her phone away, and somewhat disregarded her image as she squeezed out a short "Huh?"

What turned her into this...?

Seeing her nemesis suddenly go mad, Chi Leying didn't feel gloating. Instead, she felt a chill run down her spine and was completely bewildered. Who am I? Where am I? What kind of weird thing did I just see?

Although I don't really like Tong Yulu, she didn't have these symptoms before. When did she start having these symptoms? How come I didn't know?
Please don't do this, it scares me.

People didn't have time to pay attention to the songs that followed, because very few people could watch the previous clip unscathed.

They're so engrossed in the catchy, cheesy vocals of "I can only feel sorry for giegie" that they can't concentrate on listening to music anymore.

Many people didn't realize what was happening and simply dragged the progress bar back to the beginning. "How strange," they thought, "let's watch it again."

Even after Chi Leying turned off the video, the word "giegie" continued to play on a loop in her mind, even altering her memory of the pronunciation of the word "brother".

Oh no, that guy's brain has been turned into an alkaline mess.

It's too late to regret it now. She shouldn't have clicked on that video today. Chi Leying subconsciously wanted to complain to Yu Wei, but when she turned around, she found that he hadn't returned yet.

Yu Wei, who watched the video on his phone in the hallway, was quite shocked. He hadn't expected Tong Yulu to be so talented; she could imitate his verbal descriptions so perfectly.

Although his talents are average, he's amazing at abstract art.

He didn't dare listen to it a second time, so he went back to check the voting comments. Tong Yulu's votes had even taken a slight lead.

"No, we have to post it so that more people can see it."

"Which one sounds better? Don't I know which one is funnier?"

"Oh no, I can't look at the deer the same way anymore."

"I listened to my phone for an hour while it was stuck in the crack of the bed. I really enjoyed it."

Tong Yulu's abstract performance has indeed gained recognition from many people; after all, the human brain's defenses are easily breached in the face of abstract art...

As the number of AI singing performances increased, readers and netizens lost their initial enthusiasm, and it was definitely more fun to do something abstract in comparison.

Evidence has been found that humans cannot be replaced by AI; AI really can't do such an abstract task.

More importantly, people have discovered that AI can be replaced. Even if AI is eliminated, there will still be AI and B. Even if AI is eliminated, songs will still be sung, but if humans are eliminated, they will be gone forever.

There's no substitute for Tong Yulu's abstract personality right now, so we definitely have to prioritize getting her in. Everyone's looking forward to seeing more fun.

In just one afternoon, passersby who heard the news rushed to the scene, helping Tong Yulu's votes reach a new peak. Under these circumstances, it was practically time to pop the champagne.

Before Chi Leying could recover from the catchy lines, someone from her fan club asked her if she wanted to vote for the AI.

The two women simply don't get along, but their respective fan groups harbor pure hatred. Chi Leying's fans don't want to see Tong Yulu win the competition, so they're always ready to take action.

They finally won with great difficulty, and their joy lasted only a few days before the opposing team managed to win with something seemingly abstract. No wonder they couldn't accept it.

They already wanted to claim the title of victor, and what's more, their rivals were right behind them. As long as the winner gave the order, they would go and cause trouble.

"no need."

Chi Leying recalled the iconic scene that had captivated her, and seemed less resistant than before. "She deserves it."

It's hard to explain, let her win this time.
