Entertainment: This top celebrity is really letting loose!

Having thoroughly figured out his own position, Lei Mingkai adopted a very humble attitude, which made the meal, although the atmosphere was subtle and awkward at the beginning, quite pleasant in the process and at the end.

After his teammates had eaten and drunk their fill, Zhou Yang decided to return to the hotel to rest. Just as he lay down on the bed to relax, a WeChat voice call suddenly rang.

"Jin Ran?"

Zhou Yang picked up the phone and saw a rather unexpected name on the screen.

Since filming wrapped on "The Temptation to Go Home", the two have not been in contact. What is this sudden thing they're up to?

Zhou Yang opened his phone and said lazily, "What is it?"

"Zhou Yang, congratulations on your recent outstanding performance at the rock music festival."

The girl on the other end of the phone was very excited.

Zhou Yang didn't believe the call was specifically for congratulations, and repeated, "Speak, what is it?"

After repeated questioning, the other party finally said, "It's nothing important. This afternoon I went to the production center to check on the post-production of 'The Temptation of Going Home,' and the progress is incredibly fast..."

Zhou Yang then asked, "And then?"

"Then... well, I happened to overhear the person in charge talking about the soundtrack for this show, and that reminded me of your boasting to me about getting a soundtrack. Was it true or not?"

"Of course it's true."

Zhou Yang responded, "You can talk to Hu Da... no, talk to the director and ask them to wait a little while until I finish this rock music festival."

"No problem, I'll talk to the person in charge tomorrow. You can focus on the competition."

When Zhou Yang claimed on set that he wanted to compose music for the TV series, Jin Ran just thought he was joking, after all, Zhou Yang's creative talent was still overshadowed by "Learn to Meow".

But things are very different now. The song "Fairy" amazed the rock scene, which made Jin Ran remember and call to inquire.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yang immediately went into the system to check.

To prepare for this rock music festival, he used all his accumulated "freedom points" to redeem three songs from the store.

To be fair, although Aunt Long was considered an "evil cultivator" in the music industry in her previous life, her works, whether original or cover, were not cheap in the system's shop; in fact, they were quite expensive.

Especially the first song "Fairy" and the third song which has not yet been released, the song "Going to Heaven" which just ended is the cheapest.

Now, suddenly being reminded that she is in charge of the soundtrack for "The Temptation to Go Home," Zhou Yang is a little nervous, worried that her performance might not be up to par...

Perhaps it's because the rock music festival is such a large-scale event that, after just two rounds of competition, the "letting go" value has already accumulated to hundreds of thousands, a speed that is truly astonishing.

He quickly checked the three background music tracks for the TV series, and thankfully the price wasn't high, which put Zhou Yang at ease.

While showing off can be exhilarating, the embarrassment of failing to do so is unbearable.

The more influential the stage or instance, the faster Zhou Yang's "unfettered value" increases; he has discovered a new world once again.

"Looks like I can't stay home all the time anymore, otherwise this chance to fly away will be a long time coming."

.

.

One morning, Zhou Yang and his teammates, who had woken up naturally, flew back to Shanghai accompanied by two company leaders.

Meanwhile, the rock music festival was in full swing, but unfortunately, the second day of the competition lacked both Zhou Yang, who brought in a lot of attention and generated buzz, and the Cheetah Band, a band known for its pure talent. As a result, both the enthusiasm of the live audience and the level of attention from the outside world were at their lowest since the start of the competition.

After enduring three days of hardship, the Cheetah Band finally made it.

This veteran rock band did not disappoint, delivering another stunning performance of "Nobody Lives Forever," winning the Best of the Night award.

The second round of the competition has now concluded.

.

Shanghai, Star Entertainment.

"Yangyang, the second round rankings are out. Guess where you ranked?"

"How many?"

Zhou Yang didn't show much curiosity, which made Wang Man, who was waving her phone, feel less accomplished.

"You came in second place again in the second round."

Wang Man smiled brightly, seemingly very satisfied with the result.

This time, Zhou Yang, with her Secondhand Roses, overcame all obstacles and successfully conquered the mainstream music scene, shedding the negative labels previously attached to songs like "Last-Time Cramming" and "Learning to Meow".

In her opinion, if Zhou Yang and his team of Secondhand Roses can maintain their current form, they will most likely be able to secure second place in the final battle of the third round.

Second place, which was the best result she could imagine.

As for the championship? Sorry, she's not really ready to think about beating the Cheetahs yet.

After thinking for a few seconds, Zhou Yang suddenly asked, "In this round, will we lose to the Cheetahs again with the live votes?"

As a top influencer, he believes he is unbeatable in popularity on the internet and cannot possibly lose to his rivals.

The scene was different. Although there were some of his fans, most of them were hardcore rock fans. These people had a certain aesthetic appreciation for his work and were not easily fooled.

To everyone's surprise, Wang Man shook her head and said, "No, you had the highest number of votes in the live audience this round, but you lost to Cheetah in the online voting."

"What?"

Zhou Yang finally showed a surprised expression. He had actually lost in his strongest area? On the contrary, he had won in the field he didn't consider so strong.

There must be a reason behind everything, but he soon realized that it was all because of the song "Going to Heaven".

To be fair, this song, in terms of lyrics, music, and musicality, is noticeably inferior to the previous round's "Fairy". Its only advantage is that it fits the fans' idea of ​​playing with memes, or rather, it satisfies their "wonderful fantasy" of second-hand roses entering the funeral industry, which makes the atmosphere at the scene far exceed that of the first round.

However, online voting was relatively rational. He had heard Cheetah's "No One Lives Forever," and he considered it a masterpiece, both in terms of melody and its use of rock music to express attitude and spirit. It was even better than "Burning Myself" from the first round.

Therefore, his unusual vote count in this round is not surprising.

"The company is already very satisfied with your and the second-hand roses' performance. In the third round of the finals, it would be best if you could maintain second place. If you can't, don't feel too much pressure, after all, you have already given people too many surprises this time."

Before leaving, Wang Man, fearing that he was too impetuous and strong-willed, gave him another round of comforting words.

"Don't worry, Sister Wang, I'm fine."

After saying that, Zhou Yang touched the warm USB drive in his pocket, then called to his teammates, "Rehearsal!"

.

Although the second round of the competition has just ended, discussions about the upcoming finals are already in full swing.

Ding Dasheng was the first to be affected.

"There's been a lot of discussion about the finals of this year's rock music festival, but actually, I don't think there's much suspense about who will be the champion."

Before the music festival even started, the Cheetah Band was undoubtedly considered the champion by many; in other words, they had no rivals at this year's festival...

Finally, let's talk about Zhou Yang and his Secondhand Roses. To be fair, his performance at this year's rock music festival was amazing. In fact, when the first round of "Fairy" came out, many people were stunned and could not imagine that such a work came from Zhou Yang.

Aside from singing ability, I personally think the biggest difference between Zhou Yang and Lao Liang lies in their ability to consistently create songs. From "Burning Self" to "No One Lives Forever," Cheetah's works have been consistently improving.

Compared to "Fairy", the quality of "Going to Heaven" in the second round of Second Hand Roses dropped significantly. Although the audience enjoyed the jokes and had a great time, it could not mask the difference in quality between the works themselves.

Finally, I sincerely hope that Zhou Yang can put aside her impetuousness in the future, focus on polishing her work, and never get bogged down in catchy pop songs like "Learn to Meow" and waste her talent.
