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

Wan Qian left, boarded a train bound for Beijing, and continued her journey as a migrant worker in the capital.

Shen Can's life did not change because of the sudden intrusion of a certain person, and the sudden departure of that person.

Writing, making songs, attending classes...

Life is simple but not boring.

By noon on Monday, he even received some good news.

—The wanted criminal Zhao was successfully apprehended by the police.

The arrest took place in a small hotel not far from the Shanghai Theatre Academy, at 6:35 p.m. on Sunday.

This made Shen Can breathe a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he felt a chill down his back.

Was it a coincidence that Zhao was lurking near the Shanghai Theatre Academy, or was he trying to harm him?

Shen Can leans towards the latter.

Although he did not directly confront Zhao, Zhao believed that it was Zhao's music video that had caused Zhao to become a homeless dog and shatter his dream of becoming a big and powerful figure. It was logical for Zhao to want revenge.

This is also the analysis shared by some student netizens on the Shanghai Theatre Academy's campus forum.

"The wanted criminal must have completely broken down!!"

He was wanted by the police everywhere, with nowhere to go. What awaited him was prison life, or even execution. But Shen Can was becoming more and more popular, and even filmed a kissing scene with senior Wan Qian... Who wouldn't be angry in his situation?

Fortunately, the police did a great job.

If Zhao succeeds and Shen Can is killed in retaliation, it will be a major loss for our Shanghai Theatre Academy and a huge loss for the music industry.

Shen Can himself was also relieved.

If Zhao hadn't been arrested yesterday evening, and if the attack had truly targeted him...

When he and Wan Qian left the internet cafe and had a deep conversation by the river, that was the perfect opportunity for Zhao to make his move.

In reality, if it really came down to a fight, Shen Can felt that his chances of winning weren't low, after all, he always carried the scissors with him, and unrestricted combat emphasizes a single, fatal blow...

But what if?

What if we fail and it's over?

He can't gamble on this.

Moreover, even if he succeeds in killing Zhao, the public opinion he will face is unimaginable.

The only celebrity to have directly killed a wanted criminal after the founding of the People's Republic of China?

Or was it an assailant who acted in excessive self-defense?

Hard to say.

"Fortunately, nothing happened. However, I really should learn more about combat skills," Shen Can thought to himself.

All fear stems from insufficient firepower.

We need to add some self-defense techniques.

Even if it's not used, it can still be developed in the direction of acting in movies in the future.

Although martial arts films are becoming increasingly rare these days, with only top action stars still getting roles, it's always good to have an extra skill.

Having more skills is never a bad thing.

In fact, the decline of martial arts films is largely related to the low cultural level of people in the industry. In the past, martial arts films clearly showed certain ideological themes, such as national and social responsibility, chivalry, helping the weak and punishing the strong, and revenge.

But now?

The plot is superficial and empty, the actors only care about looking cool, their demeanor is terrible, and they may even just recite their lines as if they were numbered 1234567.

It would be strange if he wasn't feeling lonely.

Of course, you can't expect a group of people who failed the college entrance exam to be highly educated.

The statement "Cultural workers must be cultured" is highly valuable.

"clatter!"

Inside the dormitory, Shen Can began writing chapter 53 of his novel.

As mentioned earlier, the protagonist offended the capitalists and then sang "Once Upon a Time," but the characters in "Once Upon a Time" were unheard of by people in the novel's world.

Therefore, it's reasonable for the protagonist to receive a low score from the judges, but the song's melody is beautiful, the protagonist's performance is also a plus, and there's also the support from the diva's ex-girlfriend...

Therefore, the protagonist's ranking in this episode eventually dropped to second to last, and he almost got eliminated.

"I never expected Jiang Wanning would choose to offend us just to protect you!"

Backstage at the program, Mr. Qin, a senior executive at Starry Sky Entertainment, was practically spitting fire.

He glared angrily at Jiang Wanning, then stared at Lin Yu as she walked down from the stage.

If you can't have it, destroy it; but he failed to destroy it the first time.

"You won't be so lucky next time. I won't give you another chance!" Mr. Qin said, raising his chin as he walked up to Lin Yu, completely ignoring the other contestants backstage.

However, he was shorter than Lin Yu, so even if he raised his chin, he couldn't look down at Lin Yu. Instead, Lin Yu looked down at him because of his height advantage.

"What are you pretending for!" Lin Yu's eyes were icy cold: "I'm standing here not because of your charity, but because I have the ability. You're so good at pretending, why don't you stick two scallions in your nose and pretend to be an elephant to open my eyes? You're so pretentious and think you're so great. I've lived for so many years and this is the first time I've seen someone like you."

"You...!!!" Mr. Qin's face turned red with rage.

"What do you mean, 'you'? You talk more than you're cultured, you're a toad pretending to be a frog, you're ugly but you're still good at playing tricks, you're a glutton, your head is like a lantern, you walk crookedly, and you do all sorts of ridiculous things."

Cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents. If you go to such extremes, don't blame me for going to extremes too. Don't you have any weaknesses? Fortune changes every thirty years; don't underestimate me just because I'm poor now!

In real life, I act prudently; in novels, I'm defiant and confrontational!

In this section, Shen Can further deepens the conflict between the protagonist and the antagonist, laying the groundwork for subsequent plot developments.

As for the saying "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river...", we can only say that we should first take the path of potatoes.

Then, in the latter half of this chapter, Shen Can arranged a reward for the protagonist.

But this time it's not a super gift package, just a regular reward.

These are "A Collection of Fairy Tales", "Bruce Lee's Fighting Abilities", "Master-Level Arrangement Abilities", and the song "Asking the Moon".

After finishing a chapter, Shen Can updated it. After taking a nap and returning from class, he received countless tips and requests for more updates, making the book review section incredibly lively.

"The main character is spouting rhymes all the time, Brother Can, are you preparing for graduate school?"

"That was great! It felt so good to hear them yell at me. If I had that kind of tongue, I could yell at everyone who's ever messed with me!"

"Shen Duidui... Come to think of it, in the Sichuan-Chongqing region, Shen Can's cursing is relatively mild."

"A collection of fairy tales? I'm looking forward to the protagonist writing fairy tales and proving those judges wrong."

Am I the only one interested in "Asking the Moon"? What kind of song is it exactly?

"..."

Shen Can glanced at some of the comments and then ignored them.

He logged into his Sina blog and posted a microblog.

[The song "What's Wrong?" will be officially released on October 17th. We hope everyone will support it.]

This song, which has appeared in the novel for a long time, is finally going to be released.

It's worth mentioning that the "Grommi" in the lyrics of this song originally referred to Xu Sangao's dog. Shen Can doesn't own a dog, but he has a calico cat named "Little Rice" at home, so it can be changed.

"My fans always say I keep them in suspense, but this time I'm satisfying them all at once with two songs—that's more than enough!"

Another song is "Fairy Tale Town".

Shen Can plans to use this song on the commercial performance stage on the 18th, and in order to save money, he will not shoot a music video, but will directly use the live recording video.

The reason he didn't reveal it in advance on his blog was because he wanted to give his fans a surprise.

In short, high-energy content ahead.
