Chapter 409 Yu Wei's Fake Death: A Battle of Wits at its Peak

The chorus has an upward melody, so simple it's unbelievable, yet it strikes straight into your heart.

Netizens subconsciously nodded along with the rhythm. Yu Wei's new song is something special; it's catchy and easy to listen to, and the lyrics are simple, just the most straightforward expression.

Although Lin and Meng's songs are excellent, they are still too difficult to listen to normally. Yu Wei's song is just right, light and pleasant. When I listen to it while walking, I feel like my steps are a bit faster.

The voice of the indigenous singer Wang Er is also quite compatible with this song. At first, when people heard it, it was a lighthearted song, and they were worried that it wouldn't suit them.

After all, his "dragon's roar" in "Dragon Scales of Heaven and Earth" was so shocking. Who would have thought that he could handle such a plain song so easily?

They already had a soft spot for this singer who was unfortunately eliminated, and after this song came out, netizens loved him even more.

A good singer is one who can handle any style, and Second Brother is definitely top-notch; he'd be considered a leading singer even in a novel.

"I voted for Wang Er. Lin Puyan and Meng Han will still have a chance to sing in the future, but Erge probably won't have a chance to perform after this encore."

"Indeed, this is the last time I'll charge for Wang Er; he has to win this time."

"What champion are you talking about? A friendly match champion."

"Our Song" was already more popular than the other two songs, and with netizens cheering it on, the number of votes skyrocketed.

We are all long-time readers and know Yu Wei's style. This return is clearly a special case, and the future plot will definitely focus on the main competition.

Elimination is elimination. It seems the second brother won't have any more scenes in this novel. Giving him a final moment of glory is a fitting end...

The outcome of the match was no longer in doubt from this moment on. Although Wang Er was eliminated early, the fact that he managed to take a point from Meng Han and Lin Puyan was still quite impressive.

Just as everyone was "seeing off" Wang Er, Yu Wei updated the second chapter of the day.

Generally, the post-match chapters don't have many exciting moments. The climax has already passed, and the next match hasn't started yet. They can only write about some audience feedback, so everyone's expectations aren't high.

Some netizens who had nothing better to do clicked in to take a look, and as expected, this chapter was full of the mentors' comments on several songs.

Wei Yu, as the main speaker, succinctly commented that "Our Song" was the best overall among the three songs.

The readers were unmoved by this. Now, let's talk about something that no one knows.

In addition, Yu Wei also used the protagonist's words to praise Meng Han's "Record Shop".

This song is somewhat different from "Our Song," but you should know that this is an area that Meng Han is not good at; this is his first folk song.

The fact that Meng Han was able to hold his own against them on his first attempt at a new genre clearly shows that his creative abilities are becoming increasingly comprehensive.

If he's already struggling in this new arena, then if he were to return to his forte, rock music, he would undoubtedly unleash his dominant power.

Seeing this, everyone finally showed some emotion. It seemed that Yu Wei still owed Teacher Meng a gift, something about flowers...

Just as they were trying to recall the name of the song that was comparable to "Smog," the novel's protagonist suddenly made a surprising remark, saying that there was an Easter egg in the theme song.

The theme song he mentioned was naturally "Our Song," which Wang Er had just sung. An Easter egg? What Easter egg? They didn't see it at all.

Just when the audience thought the critiques were about to end, Wei Yu, the mentor sitting on the far side, suddenly exclaimed "Eh!" and pressed his earphones even closer to his ears.

He gestured to the director: "Please record all the good memories in it, and then play the rest of the video again."

The entire room fell silent, bewildered.

Soon, the audio was played back and amplified.

"This Forever Love is so deep"

Our songs are so real

Borderless and Trans-era
"You'll never call me Kiss Goodbye again."

Wei Yu gestured for them to stop. "If I remember correctly, these two English lines are from two other songs of yours, right?"

What? These are two song titles?

Many netizens were a bit taken aback when they saw this. These few lines seemed unremarkable when listening to the song, and no one really paid much attention to them.

They thought the sudden appearance of two English phrases was to echo the theme of "borderless and cross-generational," but they never expected it to be the song title.

If someone else said this, people would definitely not believe it, and might even think it's too far-fetched, but since Yu Wei wrote it this way in his novel, they have no choice but to believe it. The song was written by Yu Wei, and if he said there were Easter eggs, then of course there are.

Is there a hidden meaning within the song?

He can hide Easter eggs in his songs however he wants, but the problem is, in the novel he wrote: These are two songs by Wang Er...

What do you mean? Are you planning to have Wang Er sing these two songs?
Just now everyone was busy voting for Second Brother's "Last Dance", but now we're telling them that Second Brother still has two songs to release?

But after the exhibition match, the second brother was completely eliminated, and his next appearance is nowhere in sight. When will they have to wait?
So they're just teasing us...

"I'm really looking forward to my second brother's new song."

"Hope is useless; he's just planning to make us wait around."

"You've hidden two Easter eggs in the theme song, that's unbeatable."

"That bastard is no longer human."

Yu Wei is good at keeping people in suspense. Before, she would release the song title, then a few lines of lyrics, and now she's going all out with a song within a song.

The first two tricks can be avoided. He advertises, but people just don't look at them, and they'll forget about it over time.

But this time is different. They'll have to listen to songs eventually, so they can't avoid the Easter eggs in the songs.

What's more, this song is all about being lighthearted and cheerful, so it's bound to be played on repeat. If they hear it every time they hear it, they'll remember that they still owe two songs, and they'll be miserable.
This is really inhuman. They seriously suspect that Yu Wei only made these dumplings with vinegar for the sake of this dish. The theme song and the friendly match were just a setup for the Easter egg. When they saw Wang Er return, they thought Yu Wei had changed his ways and knew how to meet the readers' expectations. They never expected that he was just doing it for a better fishing.

The bait was too big; they couldn't resist and fell for Yu Wei's trick. Now they're in trouble; they'll remember those two songs for the rest of their lives...

Netizens who thought about this were so angry that their scalps tingled. This is too insidious. How can you defend against a song within a song?
They weren't even the angrier ones at the moment; Meng Han and Lin Puyan were the ones who were most furious.

What do you mean by saying that Yu Wei made dumplings to make a fool of himself, and that's why he lost to the two of them?
So their songs were just part of a game between Yu Wei and the readers...

If Yu Wei had played all his cards and won with great difficulty, they would certainly have lost fair and square. But to lose to Yu Wei's game was rather shameful.

"I really can't stand it. You can't use your talent like this."

Lin Puyan was so angry that he slapped his thigh. He originally thought that if he won, he would make a huge profit and if he lost, he wouldn't lose anything. Who would have thought that Yu Wei would have this trick up his sleeve?
When people talk about this match in the future, the first thing they'll definitely think of is the Easter egg in Yu Weige's song, and the two NPCs who lost to the Easter egg song...

Meng Han, standing next to him, couldn't laugh either. This was his transformation project, and although he wasn't good at it, he had put a lot of effort into it. Who could stand being played by Yu Wei?
"That's really a bit harsh."

It's fortunate that his son played in his place, otherwise he would have been too embarrassed.

"No, I have to get an explanation from him."

Lin Puyan became angrier the more he thought about it. They went to support Yu Wei's show, which was a way of helping him. If they used their own people as a scapegoat, who would dare to come in the future?
Just as he was cursing and preparing to settle scores with Yu Wei, devastating news suddenly arrived from the novel circle: Yu Wei was dead...

"what?"

Lin Puyan and Meng Han were both stunned. They were happily updating just a moment ago, and now it's gone. Is this right?

Although they were furious, they weren't that angry yet. If Yu Wei really lost them, he would cry more bitterly than anyone else.

If you don't have any at this point, then it's truly a 0% win rate.

The two hurriedly opened the novel and, sure enough, found Yu Wei's "corpse" at the end of the chapter. In the photo, Yu Wei had several wounds on his body, but the knife wound on his neck was particularly obvious.

The photo was taken during the day, so the time was obviously wrong. They breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the person who posted the photo was Qi Luoan.

Oh, it was just a prank. Never mind then.

Besides the wounds, Yu Wei had several obvious signs of fighting on his body, suggesting that he hadn't actually fought. It wouldn't be wrong to call it a defeat CG.

"such a pity."

Lin Puyan put on an air of "How come Yu Wei didn't die?", but in reality, he was more anxious than anyone else just now...

Losing to the future number one is one thing, but if Yu Wei were to kick the bucket now, his status and influence would clearly be insufficient.

Both publicly and privately, he hoped that Yu Wei could go further.

Netizens shared similar sentiments; they were furious at first, but after seeing the photo, their anger instantly dissipated.

Firstly, seeing Yu Wei's miserable state was gratifying; secondly, they had to admit that they both loved and hated Yu Wei.

People were kept in suspense and made a few complaints, but it would be really painful if Yu Weizhen were gone. It's not easy to find a singer who can satisfy everyone, how can she just disappear like that?
Yu Wei is leaving, what will they eat?
Without him, who will everyone watch? Over the past year, they have developed the habit of reading books and listening to music. There are no substitutes online.

"Good, good, I don't know who got my revenge, good riddance."

"Judging from the scene, it should be a still from a movie. Filming for 'Kung Fu Jungle' has started."

"See? If you keep delaying updates and keeping people in suspense, this is what will happen to you."

Yu Wei laughed when he saw this. It was precisely because it was a fake death that everyone could calm down. If he had really died, the serious matter could not be turned into a joke.

He died after fishing and leaving his hook behind, and there's really no follow-up. Not only will people not be able to calm down, but netizens will probably hate him for the rest of their lives.

The hellish jokes that aren't actually hellish are just right; at least they provide a place for everyone to vent.

"I've figured it out, this generation of netizens really can't live without you."

Qi Luoan sighed as she scrolled through the comments, "I get it. Everyone's just being aloof. They say things about you, but they're actually always worried about you."

"Not really."

Yu Wei is self-aware enough not to be arrogant. People just don't want to see the updates stop. They're just strangers who met by chance, so there's no love or hate involved.

If he releases his work and then kicks the bucket, hardly anyone will remember him.

The right to breathe is something that is accumulated step by step. If he didn't produce so many works over such a long period of time, netizens definitely wouldn't be able to tolerate it.

Because of Qi Luoan's use of these stills, it can be considered a roundabout way of promoting "Kung Fu Jungle." Many netizens have declared that they want to see how Yu Wei gets beaten to death.

Another reason to buy tickets...

"This is a good thing."

Yu Wei has decided that this will be how all his movies will be promoted from now on. He just finished filming "Kung Fu Jungle" and it's time to write a new script.

"What do you think audiences like to watch these days?"

Although Yu Wei wrote three films, he was well aware that the film market had been declining in recent years, and that television dramas were still more popular in the film and television industry.

"You're asking me? I'm not looking at it."

Qi Luoan rarely watches TV dramas anymore. Aren't all the dramas these days ancient or modern romances with strong female leads? I can't bear to watch them at all.

"If you really want to try, why not put out a poll and let the readers choose?"

Yu Wei thought about it and realized it made sense. Since it's for the masses, their opinions naturally have to be considered. (End of Chapter)
