Shattering the talent show script, sweeping the world film scene

Despite having many questions and things to say, Xie Xingyan, sensing Jiangxi Heng's unspoken words, began to speak insincerely, just like back at the gym.

His eyes glazed over for a moment; it turned out that the first step in growing up was to hide some things.

A man's casual chuckle sounded from the side, making his ears itch.

Xie Xingyan lowered her head and pinched her earlobe, but touched the double earrings on it. She couldn't help but recall that the stylist had said he wanted to get earrings for Jiangxi Heng, but the stylist waved his hand and refused, saying it was unnecessary.

How could it be unnecessary? If you're going to be a serious idol, you need to carefully decorate everything from head to toe, even a small ear piercing.

It's necessary for idols to wear earrings.

Actors don't need to wear earrings.

Because actors need to play different roles, from ancient times to the present, from old to young... not all roles are suitable for wearing earrings.

Xie Xingyan felt he was just one step away from seeing the truth, but he dared not take that step.

"Do you know the origin of the word 'friend'?" Suddenly, Jiangxi Heng asked Xie Xingyan a question.

Xie Xingyan looked up. The word "friend" was too commonplace. She knew its meaning in her mind, but she couldn't explain it.

"What is it?" he asked.

Jiangxi Heng said: "The Book of Songs says, 'I am bestowed with a hundred strings of shells.' During the Yin and Shang Dynasties, seashells were a precious currency. Five shells made a string, and two strings made a 'peng'. So, 'peng' refers to money."

Xie Xingyan became engrossed in listening, and he found that he really enjoyed listening to Jiangxi Heng talk about these things, just like that night when he became familiar with the Big Dipper.

"As for 'friend,' it was written as two hands in oracle bone script, and later it was extended to mean comrade, that is, someone who shares the same interests."

Jiangxi Heng explained the word "friend" to Xie Xingyan in detail, and finally looked at him and smiled and said: "The Han Dynasty book 'Baihu Tongyi' says that those who study under the same teacher are called friends, and those who share the same ideals are called 'friends'; in my opinion, those who share common interests and aspirations are friends."

Initially, Jiangxi Heng and Xie Xingyan came together because of "common interests." Later, as they became more familiar with each other, they realized that they were both strict with themselves and strived for excellence, which led to their common ground that did not involve interests.

Friends and acquaintances are both indispensable.

Listening to the awful singing on stage, Xie Xingyan casually asked, "If two people have conflicting interests but share the same aspirations, can they still become friends?"

"No," Jiangxi Heng shook his head, thinking of someone from the original owner's memories, "They would most likely become mortal enemies."

Seeing Jiangxi Heng lost in thought, Xie Xingyan's heart sank, and he asked again, "So, their interests align, but their aspirations differ..."

Jiangxi Heng smiled slightly and said, "Those are colleagues who can only walk a part of the road together. They come for profit and will leave for profit as well."

Xie Xingyan nodded thoughtfully.

As the singing faded and the shouts grew louder, he turned to the side and asked softly, "Who were you thinking about just now?"

"Huh?" Jiangxi Heng was taken aback, then said frankly, "You should have heard of Nie Mingzhu."

A child star who rose to fame around the same time as the original owner, they became wildly popular together because of a national TV series, knew each other for ten years, and fought each other for eight years.

Thirteen years old is a watershed moment. Before the original owner was 13, he could compete with Nie Mingzhu. After 13, he lost every battle, and then fought again. He used his own fame as a stepping stone for Nie Mingzhu, and in doing so, he made Nie Mingzhu a top young actor born after 2005 and a powerful new generation actor.

The original owner's despondency was 80% due to his incompetent parents, 10% due to his weak mind, and 10% due to the overwhelming brilliance of the control group.

Nowadays, when marketing accounts mention the two, they say Nie Mingzhu is a rising star, while they say Jiangxi Heng is a lost talent and declining talent.

Xie Xingyan moved his lips, clearly having heard the story of the "Twin Stars".

"I'm sorry." He felt he had brought up a past that Jiangxi Heng didn't want to talk about.

Jiangxi Heng is not that fragile.

Putting aside the fact that they were competing for resources, he and Nie Mingzhu didn't have any deep-seated hatred for each other. In fact, they were once best friends and childhood sweethearts... It's just that outsiders don't believe it.

"It's nothing," Jiangxi Heng rubbed his temples and smiled, "I just wanted to use this example to tell you that we share the same interests and aspirations, so we're friends. So don't worry about the finals, maybe... maybe there will be new changes."

Jiangxi Heng swallowed the rest of his words.

Xie Xingyan was still brooding over asking a question she shouldn't have, and her thoughts drifted away.

The three people in front were still marveling at the chaotic performance of Group A.

Kong Sui: "I thought they were making good preparations these past two weeks, but it turns out they've made a huge mess of things."

Even with cameras present, Kong Sui couldn't help but tell the truth.

Xu Yanqing coughed lightly, trying to cover for Kong Sui: "This melody is actually quite catchy."

Kong Sui immediately exposed: "The tune is directly taken from a classic song, just with a change of key and arrangement, like putting gold on a turd."

Xu Yanqing, masked in pain: "Enough, that's enough."

Ling Wushuang's gaze pierced through the crowd, and she seemed to see the pain in her friend's eyes on the stage.

Even though they were so annoyed, they still had to pretend to be cheerful and smiling. Tsk.

"Oh dear, I feel a little sorry for Xiaobai," Ling Wushuang stood up from the stool, tugged at her slightly wrinkled cuffs, and said gently yet forcefully, "But there's nothing we can do, victory is ours."

One second Kong Sui was complaining, the next he exclaimed, "Victory is ours!"

Jiangxi Heng always felt that if Ling Wushuang went into pyramid schemes, she should be able to become a leader of the scheme.

However, he did not stop Ling Wushuang from boosting everyone's morale; in this respect, neither he nor Xie Xingyan were as good as Ling Wushuang.

Jiangxi Heng, who considers himself a grown man in his thirties, couldn't bring himself to say something so childish and immature; Xie Xingyan, on the other hand, is more inclined to do more and say less due to his personality.

In this light, Ling Wushuang is actually quite suitable to be the deputy leader of a team. With him around, at least the appearances are done quite well.

"Alright, let's go check out the results of our two weeks."

Excitement flashed across the team members' faces as soon as the captain spoke.

"Alright, Captain Jiang!"

"Next up is the last team for this performance, Original Group B!" Shi Zhongyu, quick-witted as ever, preemptively announced, "Let's see what preparations Group B has made over the past two weeks!"

These words will be edited into the pre-recorded video and then inserted with footage from the past two weeks.

For viewers watching the live stream, it's like farting.

The audience applauded casually. The performance of the previous original group had lowered their expectations for the original group to a minimum. Only a small number of Jiangxi Heng's fans were still looking forward to it.

This is Heng Ge! Not that scumbag Yang Tianhang.

[I really laughed. Using the melody of a hit song but filling it with nonsensical lyrics, my younger brother writes better essays than him!]

[You can't entirely blame Yang Tianhang. Wasn't the lyrics for Group A composed of individual lines written by each person and then combined? Could I say it was Gu Zhoubai, and everyone else just wrote down whatever line came to mind in their dreams?]

Forget about the previous dream team, the song information for Group B is out! The composer is Elias King again, and the lyricist is Jiangxi Heng. I really want to know what the relationship is between this foreigner and Jiangxi Heng!!
