Huayu: Were you ever a top star before writing nonsense?

As the song ended, Shen Can, under the spotlight, bowed slightly to the crowd, concluding his performance.

After a few seconds of deathly silence, the theater lobby erupted in the loudest applause of the evening.

At this moment, everyone except Pubaja was applauding.

Music is magical. Regardless of whether you understand music or not, you can intuitively feel that a song is kind of cool and amazing.

Pubaja, with a dark expression, got up and left.

Shen Can would be coming out from backstage soon, and he didn't want to see Shen Can's smug face again.

Just as Pu Bajia reached the door, Li Jiahang turned around and chatted with a beautiful and magnanimous female student:

"Junior Shen Can is amazing. I think he sings much better than that guy... well, that champion of the 'Good Man' competition."

Pu Bajia was immediately speechless!

It's "My Hero," you bastard! You're not a good man.

The junior saw Pubaja and said with a smile:

"Brother Can is a musical genius. Although he comes from a humble background, his talent is extraordinary and cannot be compared to that of ordinary people."

Ordinary people?

Pubaja's face turned completely green.

That's so damn infuriating!

He took a deep breath, and without any hesitation, quickly left.

Su Shengsheng raised her eyebrows slightly.

She did it on purpose.

When the senior praised Shen Can, she saw a change in Pu Bajia's expression.

Since you're unhappy, then I'll make you even more unhappy.

"Brother Can??" Li Jiahang was slightly puzzled. The girl and Shen Can seemed to have a very close relationship.

"You two know each other?"

"He's my boyfriend," Su Shengsheng said with a confident smile.

Although she hasn't won Shen Can over yet, she's determined to have him.

This wicked woman makes no attempt to hide her possessiveness towards Shen Can.

At this moment, Shen Can came out from backstage and walked to his seat. Li Jiahang looked at Shen Can from afar and saw that many girls' eyes were focused on Shen Can. He felt a sense of admiration in his heart.

This scene gave him the feeling of seeing the heroine of "Malèna," and countless men wanted to light a cigarette for her.

The difference is that Shen Can is the male version. Countless girls want to "skin him alive and devour him."

……

8:30 p.m.

The Shanghai Theatre Academy campus forum is unusually lively tonight.

After the freshman welcome party for the Class of 07 ended, the campus forum quickly became abuzz with excitement.

Among them, the discussion about Shen Can is the most extensive.

Some people recommended his songs, some posted photos of Shen Can taken without his knowledge, and some shared videos of Shen Can singing "Rice Fragrance"...

Even Shen Can's online novel updates were exposed.

As a result, many students with free time started reading Shen Can's novels.

Before long, a feeling of "restlessness" spread rapidly throughout the Shanghai Theatre Academy campus.

Exclamations of surprise echoed throughout the dormitory building, from both men and women.

"What? The protagonist received five songs as a reward? 'The Brightest Star in the Night Sky' and 'Rice Fragrance' are both among the first five songs in the novel?"

"So, besides the two songs he's already sung, Shen Can likely has three more original songs?"

"Isn't the main point that Shen Can secretly wrote a novel? Just how many things has he done behind our backs?"

"A Mei Lanfang-style female impersonator??? Could Shen Can actually perform opera?"

"It's hard to say! Shen Can has already demonstrated his guitar and singing abilities, so it's not surprising that he might have other skills as well."

"Hilarious! Someone in the book review section actually said that this book is completely nonsense. Hahaha, do they even know the value of being the most handsome guy at the Shanghai Theatre Academy and the strongest freshman of 07?"

"【Fast charging】?? If only Shen Can could recover his energy quickly, I have a bold idea."

"..."

The dormitory supervisor couldn't understand why the students were so easily startled tonight.

"Is the building haunted?"

Ten minutes later, the book review section for "The All-Round Artist" also became very lively.

It looked as if the school had been overrun by students from the Shanghai Theatre Academy.

"What do you readers who say Shen Can writes nonsense know about Shen Can?!"

"You know nothing about the real Shen Can."

"He's a monster."

"It's not just random writing. I've already listened to two of the songs in the book, and they're both excellent."

"Shen Can's new song will be released tomorrow; you'll understand once you listen to it."

Many wealthy men and women also generously donated money to Shen Can's new book through various channels.

—Money talks!

Meanwhile, on Baidu Tieba, a musical theatre student revealed that Pu Bajia had challenged Shen Can backstage at the theater.

However, it didn't generate much buzz.

At this moment, nobody cared anymore.

It's not important, not important at all.

Anyway, Purbaja has already lost.

The loser eats the dust.

After half an hour.

The book review section for "The All-Round Artist" is full of comments like "Please update," "When will you sing the next song?", "Even the donkeys in the production team can't rest as much as you," "Junior, I want to hear you sing," and "Junior, you're so handsome."

An unsigned novel already has over 300 comments.

There were also 56 more tip messages.

In girls' dormitory 1301, Zhao Ji was holding a panda plush toy, her eyes fixed on the computer screen.

"I posted the link to his novel on the forum, and finally more people started reading his novel."

She murmured to herself, a smile spreading across her delicate face:

"I hope this can help him."

She admired Shen Can's talent; such a person should shine brightly, it would be a pity to bury his talent.

Li Jinming quietly walked up behind Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji seemed to be so engrossed in his own world that he didn't notice her at all.

"Honey, what are you muttering about?" Li Jinming suddenly spoke, startling Zhao Ji.

What are you doing?

"Something's wrong with you."

"Is there?"

"You're blushing."

"I'm just a little hot."

"You helped Shen Can promote his novel, so tell me honestly, did you develop lustful thoughts towards him?"

"How could that be? I just saw that he was having a hard time and wanted to help him."

"Really? I don't believe it." Li Jinming looked at Zhao Ji suspiciously.

Zhao Ji pretended to be angry and glared at Li Jinming, then she stretched out her devilish claws... and launched a sneak attack.

It's common knowledge that girls' dormitories are actually quite chaotic, especially among close female friends, where physical contact is a frequent occurrence.

Li Jinming specializes in attacking Zhao Ji's bottom lane – her legs. Her legs are smooth and straight, and feel great to the touch.

Zhao Ji launched a fierce attack on Li Jinming's top lane. Although she wasn't particularly broad-minded, she was much better than Zhao Ji and could still squeeze in some space.

Hailu sat to the side, becoming a bystander.

"This is much more interesting than watching a movie," Hailu commented while cracking sunflower seeds.

……

Male dormitory 609.

Shen Can had no classes that evening, so after dinner, she returned to her dorm room.

I have class in the Dramatic Literature department tonight, and my other three roommates are all in class.

This gave Shen Can some quiet time, and he planned to write a novel for a while.

As mentioned earlier, Shen Can wanted to create a concept album.

To achieve your goal, the choice of song is crucial.

Both songs that have already been produced can resonate with the theme of "Life's Journey".

"The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" reflects the emotions of a person after a breakup.

Although the song sounds very inspiring overall, the original intention behind its creation was indeed the creator's longing for his ex-girlfriend.

Shen Can believes that "Rice Fragrance" corresponds to the great love of a person who, after emerging from a low point, wants to redeem others.

This setting is somewhat similar to the feeling of "the greatest heroes are those who serve their country and its people" in the finale of "The Return of the Condor Heroes," which elevates the entire album to a final level.

Shen Can has already planned out the life of "that person" in the album.

"Childhood, graduation, growing up, falling in love, courting, heartbreak, pursuing dreams, failure, confusion, falling into darkness, self-consolation, ordinary life, redeeming others, etc."

"The book 'People Like Me' corresponds to feelings of confusion."

"The novel 'Sorrow' corresponds to self-consolation."

"Childhood...Once Upon a Time"

"When you're falling into darkness, you definitely have to use 'Under the Sea,' it's such a healing song."

As Shen Can pondered this, he got up and walked to the balcony. From there, he looked down at the campus and saw teachers and students. Then, looking up at the sky, he saw a hazy crescent moon that quickly disappeared behind the clouds, leaving only a faint glimmer of moonlight.

"An ordinary life, the ordinary road."
