I started to become more self-disciplined at the age of 30

Chapter 86 85. Who drew this world, and drew you and me! Shuangxing University invites Jiang Chen to give a lecture?
When Jiang Chen was live-streaming on his way to Jinling the day before yesterday, he had already confirmed his trip to Suzhou in front of all the viewers.

and so!
Many audiences in Suzhou and nearby areas have been waiting for a long time.

In addition, Jiang Chen came here by boat and was not walking fast. He also broadcast live all the way here, which was equivalent to revealing his real-time location to all the viewers.

Many audiences in Suzhou prepared to come to the scene to meet Jiang Chen more than a day in advance.

Some office workers had already asked for leave a day in advance, or had prepared to skip work in advance, and were keeping an eye on Jiang Chen's location at all times. As soon as Jiang Chen entered Suzhou, they would immediately come over to create an encounter.

Therefore, as soon as Jiang Chen entered Suzhou, he was surrounded by the people of Suzhou.

Su Haijun and He Xianzhang are both native Suzhou people, and they were the most shocked at this moment.

Because they have lived here for most of their lives, and this is the first time they have seen so many people so crazy to come and see one person.

The crowds of people on this street probably stretch for several kilometers.

And when Jiang Chen said he was going to sing a new song live, the audience both in the venue and in the live broadcast room instantly exploded with emotions.

The number of people in the live broadcast room suddenly increased rapidly, with thousands of people pouring into the room every second.

"Lao Jiang has a new song. It's so awesome."

"Hahahaha, I was just saying that watching Lao Jiang's live broadcast room, there are new surprises every day."

"Now I only watch Lao Jiang's live broadcast room. Other anchors, even those with black stockings and long white legs, are boring and not as interesting as the guy sleeping on the upper bunk above me."

"I like the way you look, this song is so profound."

"I like Lao Jiang's new songs, hahahaha. Lao Jiang sings a new song every day and I like it every day."

"The people of Suzhou welcome Lao Jiang!"

……

There were also enthusiastic shouts from all around.

At this time, Chen Xiaojia got back on the boat, holding a wireless microphone in her hand and handed it to Jiang Chen, saying breathlessly: "Here, I borrowed it from the community cadres over there!"

Chen Xiaojia waved to several young people on the shore, and those young people waved back at Chen Xiaojia and Jiang Chen. Judging from their attire, they were indeed very formal, with badges hanging on their chests. They were community cadres from nearby who had been waiting here for a long time, and they had even prepared audio equipment in advance!
Jiang Chen also waved in response, and regardless of whether the other party could hear him or not, he also said, "Thank you!"

However, several young people from the community on the other side seemed to have heard it, or saw it from Jiang Chen's mouth shape, so they responded loudly: "Old Jiang, you're welcome!"

Jiang Chen turned to look at Han Qing, only to see that Han Qing had already brought the guitar over and looked at him with a smile: "Do you want this?"

Qin Xuerong, Pu Yuexi, and Chen Xiaojia, who were standing next to them, all looked at Han Qing with a hint of envy!
Jiang Chen nodded and smiled at Han Qing: "Thank you, Xiao Qingzi."

Han Qing smiled and said nothing, but handed the guitar to Jiang Chen with both hands.

Jiang Chen took the guitar and stood at the bow, holding the microphone in front of him, and said loudly: "Everyone is too enthusiastic, I feel a little embarrassed."

Lighthearted laughter could be heard from the shore and the surrounding cabins, and everyone waved vigorously at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen continued, "Everyone who knows me knows that I am not good at speaking. I am better at writing and singing. So I won't speak!"

The scene gradually became quiet.

The tens of thousands of people on both sides of the river and on the boats in the river knew that Jiang Chen was about to begin his performance, so they all consciously kept quiet and did not disturb Jiang Chen's performance.

Pu Yuexi walked up to Jiang Chen and whispered in his ear, "Do you need us to accompany you? We have brought instruments with us."

Jiang Chen shook his head gently: "Not for now, a guitar is enough for now."

Pu Yuexi nodded slightly disappointedly and stood two steps away.

Then, Jiang Chen's hands slid across the guitar strings, and a burst of clear and soothing music came out, which was transmitted far away through the audio equipment placed on both sides of the river by the community.

Jiang Chen's music can be clearly heard within ten kilometers on both sides of the strait.

Because the community action workers have been busy these two days, connecting the audio equipment in the two nearby blocks.

If they were not afraid of making too much noise, they would even want to connect the audio equipment in all communities in Suzhou so that Jiang Chen's singing voice could be heard throughout the whole Suzhou.

However, although several community workers are loyal fans of Jiang Chen, they still maintained some rationality and did not do anything excessive.

Pu Yuexi whispered to Chen Xiaojia in the back, "Jiang Chen's guitar playing has improved significantly every time. Now he seems to be very good at it! He is no worse than us."

Wang Jing whispered, "If Lao Jiang had studied music ten years earlier, he might have changed the status quo of Chinese music! He is so talented that it is impossible to imagine how great he would be now if he had studied music ten years earlier."

Chen Xiaojia and Li Wen both nodded in agreement.

They all graduated from famous domestic music schools and are geniuses in their own right. They have also met even more powerful music geniuses in school, as well as top international music geniuses who came from abroad for exchange and study.

However, in their impression, there is almost no one who can compare with Jiang Chen!
Of course, they also know that Jiang Chen is currently developing in the field of pop music, so there is not much obvious comparison between him and the genius in the field of classical music.

only……

Jiang Chen's talent and speed of improvement really shocked them.

Jiang Chen seems to be a stronger musician every day.

The pleasant and relaxing guitar sound spread over a radius of ten kilometers.

Everyone's face was full of anticipation.

The number of people online in the live broadcast room has reached 170,000 at this time. Zhang Li, who is watching the live broadcast in a nearby hotel, is also full of expectations. She wonders whether Jiang Chen can break the peak moment of 250,000 people online created last time in Jinling.

Jiang Chen played the guitar for a few times, gradually got into the mood, and then sang his own song into the microphone.

The sound is so casual and free.

"The evening breeze stirs the pine trees."

“Blowing this wind chime is like the sound of nature.”

"Standing in the silence of this city."

"Let all the noise go away..."

Everyone was surprised when they heard it.

because!

They all seemed to have returned to the day when Jiang Chen sang "You Were" in Shanghai. At that time, Jiang Chen was so free and relaxed, and every word evoked people's yearning for freedom.

Jiang Chen's singing at this moment was also very artistic, and every breath seemed to be a breath of freedom.

“Only green mountains are hidden among the white clouds.”

"Butterflies fly freely in the clear stream."

"Look at the sunset blooming in the sky."

"There is a flock of birds heading westward..."

Jiang Chen's singing voice gradually became high-pitched and distant.

“Who drew this world, and also drew you and me?”

Everyone who heard this song that seemed to come from the horizon got goose bumps all over their body.

Who drew this world?

Who drew you and me?

All the viewers who had been following Jiang Chen’s live broadcast in the past few days immediately recalled the scenery that Jiang Chen had seen along the way when he took them on an immersive tour.

The world is as beautiful as a painting!
But they didn't have time to take a look...

I can only follow Jiang Chen’s live broadcast to see how beautiful it is outside.

"Let's make our world colorful."

“Who makes us cry and surprises us.”

"Let us just fall in love and meet each other like this."

"We always have to say goodbye, meet and separate."

“Always walking on a long road…”

Jiang Chen's singing stopped temporarily, his fingers quickly plucked the guitar, but the music did not stop.

Everyone at the scene became even quieter, as if they were surrounded by the vast heaven and earth and looking at the picturesque scenery following Jiang Chen's singing and musical mood.

Qin Hanming and He Xianzhang, who were standing behind, couldn't help but remain silent when they heard Jiang Chen's singing.

Li Hui murmured in a low voice: "Xiao Jiang's singing is like poetry, very artistic and infectious."

Qin Xuerong is also quite knowledgeable about vocal music. Comparing it with Jiang Chen’s previous live videos, she said softly: “Jiang Chen has made obvious progress every time he sings!”

He Xianzhang nodded and said, "His calligraphy improves every time he writes!"

Pu Yuexi, Chen Xiaojia and the other three stopped talking, thought about it, and did not mention the fact that Jiang Chen made progress every time he played the guitar.

Because, this is outrageous enough.

Several people looked at each other.

Good guy!
I make progress every time I sing, every time I write, every time I play the guitar...

how did you do that?
Is it true that his talent had been buried and suppressed for the previous thirty years, and now all his talent has been released at once, and his strength is automatically improving every day?

Pu Yuexi and the others had been following Jiang Chen every day these days and knew that Jiang Chen didn't practice vocal music, guitar, or calligraphy at all.

I only sing and play the guitar when I perform, and I only do calligraphy when I write poetry.

that's it……

And I can still improve every time!

Is that human being?
If these talents had been developed ten or twenty years earlier, wouldn't we be at the peak of our powers by now?
same!
Luo Sheng, a gold medal music producer who was in an apartment in Shanghai, was also looking at Jiang Chen on the live broadcast screen in amazement.

He could also clearly feel that Jiang Chen's singing and guitar skills were a level higher than when he performed in Shanghai. There was even a clear improvement compared to the last time he sang "Who's the Brother on Your Upper Bunk" and "What You Look Like" in Jinling!
The control of breath is more free and smooth, and the emotions of the song are also controlled with great details.

When Jiang Chen was performing on Shanghai's bar street, he went to watch the show several times and estimated that Jiang Chen's singing skills were roughly at the level of senior professional singers. Although he was still a little worse than the top singers of the older generation, he was already one of the strongest among the young people in the Chinese music scene today.

And now, Jiang Chen's singing skills have improved again.

Luo Sheng couldn't help but think of a call he received yesterday from an old friend. That old friend worked as a producer at Shonan TV and wanted him to recommend a few talented young singers to participate in the King of Singers Contest to show off their talent!

Nowadays, young talented singers from abroad bring too much pressure to the Chinese music scene. Many popular young singers dare not go on stage to sing live, for fear of exposing their true level or being outshined by others, which will affect their image and popularity.

Therefore, the singers participating in the singing king competition are basically powerful singers of the older generation, and there are no young singers at all.

Zhou Ming, a powerful superstar from the older generation who is about to take the stage, is also in his fifties.

Luo Shengneng could imagine that the hot search topic for the next issue of the King of Singers Contest had already been booked - after the 50-year-old woman guarding the national goal, it was the turn of the 50-year-old man to guard the national goal!

However, the singers who came from abroad to challenge the club are all real young people. One of them just debuted last year and is only 20 years old.

Luo Sheng had previously discussed with Wang Xuewen about recommending Jiang Chen to participate in the singing competition. At the time, he felt that Jiang Chen's strength was not enough to go on stage and compete with talented singers from abroad.

But at this moment, he saw that Jiang Chen had made obvious progress compared to last time, and he began to look forward to it!
perhaps……

If Jiang Chen continues to improve in ten days or half a month, will he become a truly top-notch singer? Will he be qualified to compete with top-notch singers from abroad?
Luo Sheng's eyes flashed with anticipation, and then he recommended Jiang Chen's live broadcast room to his old friend Guo Haitao: "Let's see what this online anchor thinks?"

Guo Haitao, who was far away in the office of Xiangnan TV Station, was worried at this time. Suddenly, he saw the message pushed by Luo Sheng. He looked at it curiously, but saw that it was a live broadcast room. Why did he let him see this internet anchor?

Guo Haitao couldn't help but laugh at himself and said softly, "Lao Luo, you are desperate and trying all kinds of methods. You are even more anxious than I am. What can a network anchor do?"

He did not open the live broadcast room, thinking it was a waste of time.

He's just a singing internet host. It's not like he hasn't seen him before.

He had participated in the production of a program that invited many popular online anchors to perform live, which he still remembers vividly. It was like a car accident scene. Not to mention the singing ability, many online anchors couldn't even grasp the most basic pitch. Eight out of ten lyrics were out of tune, and they had to rely on post-production sound correction to be broadcast.

When they sing in online videos and live broadcasts, they use full special effects and sound editing, and their singing is no worse than that of talented singers. But when it comes to singing offline, most of them are not even as good as ordinary people who often sing karaoke.

He thought Luo Sheng was very concerned and anxious about the current singing king competition, but couldn't find a suitable person, so he tried all kinds of methods and pushed everyone to him.

Guo Haitao replied: "Thank you, Lao Luo. I will keep an eye on it."

Luo Sheng roughly knew what Guo Haitao might think, and that he might have some prejudice against online anchors, so he added: "This anchor has great potential and is very popular in Shanghai."

Guo Haitao also replied: "Hahaha, thank you Lao Luo for your help, I will observe carefully!"

The two chatted briefly, and then Guo Haitao continued to be busy without clicking on the live broadcast link sent by Luo Sheng.

Luo Sheng continued to watch Jiang Chen on the live screen and listened to Jiang Chen's singing. He felt a sense of enjoyment. He looked at Jiang Chen's live broadcast room and found that the number of people online had reached 210,000. He was slightly shocked: "In the past few days, his popularity has increased too fast."

Luo Sheng was shocked, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was natural.

Jiang Chen has released so many excellent songs and written several great poems. It would be really strange if he still couldn't attract fans.

If those young talents who run companies were so talented, they would have been known to the world long ago.

Only Jiang Chen is so low-key, so he is only popular among fans in the live broadcast room. Only in the Yangtze River Delta region are the streets full of Jiang Chen's songs. In other places, there are still very few people watching Jiang Chen's live broadcast and listening to his songs.

…………

At the scene, tens of thousands of people listened quietly.

Jiang Chen's melodious and free singing made them all feel calmer. The worries at work during the day, the worries at home, etc., seemed to become less important.

Nothing is as beautiful as poetry and the distant places.

“Only green mountains are hidden among the white clouds.”

"Butterflies fly freely in the clear stream."

"Look at the sunset blooming in the sky."

"There is a flock of birds flying westward..."

While playing the guitar, Jiang Chen shouted again, and the sound seemed to come from the sky.

“Who drew this world, and also drew you and me?”

"Let's make our world colorful."

“Who makes us cry and surprises us.”

"Let us fall in love and meet each other like this."

"We always have to say goodbye, meet and separate."

“Always walking on a long road…”

Jiang Chen sang the last line again: "Always walking on the long road..."

finished singing.

Jiang Chen's hands sped up the guitar strings, and the rapid and melodious music swept across both sides of the canal.

After a few seconds, there was a light stroke and both hands left the guitar.

The singing and music are all over.

The scene suddenly became extremely quiet.

Tens of thousands of people on both sides of the strait stared at Jiang Chen with wide eyes, without making a sound.

Even the water in the canal was silent.

The whole world seemed to have been paused, becoming a still picture.

Jiang Chen handed the guitar to Han Qing, looked at everyone with his hands behind his back, and after a few seconds, he spoke into the microphone: "Thank you everyone, this song is called Travel, which is some of my insights while traveling."

After saying this, Jiang Chen bowed slightly to thank everyone.

Only then did tens of thousands of people at the scene wake up and give Jiang Chen their warmest applause.

clap clap clap...

clap clap clap...

clap clap clap...

The applause spread along the river bank, overlapping with the echoes and resounding through the sky for several kilometers.

The barrage in the live broadcast room also exploded.

"It sounds great. When I heard the line 'Who drew this world and then drew you and me', I trembled all over and got goosebumps. It sounds so great."

"Lao Jiang's poems and distant places are really poetic, and the songs are like poems!"

"No problem. Jiang's poems and distant places are literal."

"Sounds good!"

"Lao Jiang, I want to hear what the guy who sleeps on the upper bunk looks like with you."

"Lao Jiang, sing a song called "You in the Past", which is most similar to the travel style of this song."

"Lao Jiang, where are you going next? Can you come to my land of Qilu?"

"Lao Jiang, come to Luoyang. Our great Luoyang welcomes you."

"Old Jiang, let's go back to the Magic City. We are already at the doorstep, let's go home!"

"Old Jiang, come to Yangzhou..."

"Two fat guys welcome you, Lao Jiang."

……

Many viewers in the live broadcast room admired Jiang Chen, but soon started arguing about where Jiang Chen should go next. They all wanted to invite Jiang Chen to their hometown so that they could see his live performance with their own eyes.

However, neither Jiang Chen nor Han Qing would respond to questions from the live broadcast room.

As for where to go next, Jiang Chen himself didn’t know. He decided to deal with things in Suzhou first. Anyway, he wouldn’t stay in Suzhou forever.

The applause lasted for more than a minute before gradually subsiding.

Many pairs of eyes were still staring at Jiang Chen expectantly, hoping that Jiang Chen could continue to perform their favorite songs.

However, Jiang Chen didn't want to continue performing after singing this new song. Seeing that everyone didn't want to leave, he could only say, "Everyone, today's performance ends here. Don't keep crowding here. Go home and rest early. We have to move on."

After saying that, Jiang Chen waved to everyone and turned to walk towards the cabin.

Han Qing held the live broadcast phone in front of Jiang Chen, and followed Jiang Chen off the deck without ending the broadcast at high speed.

Jiang Chen didn’t care about the live broadcast time or the daily income. Anyway, he already had more money than he could spend, so he didn’t have to worry about money in the future. That was enough.

But Han Qing cares about these things very much. She wants to help Jiang Chen maximize his profits, so she tries to keep each live broadcast time for more than half an hour, so that she can get the full per-person fee from the Penguin Live Platform.

Han Qing took a look at the number of people in the live broadcast room. There were already 220,000 people. She knew that this was the peak for tonight.

If Jiang Chen doesn't perform, the number of people will not be able to continue to increase, but will only slowly decline.

after all……

There are so many people in the live broadcast room, it is impossible for everyone to watch Jiang Chen’s live broadcast all the time. Most people are there just to watch Jiang Chen’s performance. When the performance is over, they leave.

The tens of thousands of spectators at the scene were a little disappointed when they heard Jiang Chen's words, but they couldn't stay here any longer. After all, Jiang Chen had returned to the cabin, and it would not be a good idea for them to just stand there and watch. They still had to continue their nightlife.

Community workers will work quickly to evacuate people around and prevent so many people from gathering here.

and so!
The dense crowds on both sides of the river began to slowly disperse.

However, some voices calling out Jiang Chen continued to be heard.

Qin Hanming said to Qin Xuerong, "Tell them to sail the boat and stay by the bridge near Hanshan Temple at night."

Qin Xuerong looked at Jiang Chen's back, nodded, walked towards the cabin, and conveyed his grandfather's instructions to the captain.

The cruise ship also moved slowly.

The other cruise ships surrounding the area also quickly began to move to clear the river.

Seeing that Jiang Chen really left on the boat, loud shouts were heard again on both sides of the strait.

"Lao Jiang..."

"Lao Jiang..."

"Lao Jiang..."

"Lao Jiang..."

……

Jiang Chen stood by the window and waved goodbye to the crowd outside as the ship moved.

The live camera was also facing Jiang Chen. Although the number of viewers had dropped a lot, there were still more than 150,000 people.

With a smile on her face, Han Qing quickly helped Jiang Chen tidy up the room. She felt full of energy and wanted to do something for Jiang Chen every moment.

As the cruise ship moved, there were fewer and fewer people outside.

Jiang Chen also sat in a chair and took a rest. This performance had already allowed him to reach the required amount of exercise.

I looked at the time and it was not long before bedtime.

Looking at Han Qing who was helping him pack his things, Jiang Chen said embarrassedly: "Xiao Qingzi, you don't have to help me with this, take a rest."

Han Qing smiled sweetly: "It will be ready soon!"

Two minutes later, Han Qing finished tidying up, came over, picked up her phone, and waved to the live camera: "Goodbye, everyone!"

At this time, there were still 100,000 people online in the live broadcast room. However, Han Qing still ended the broadcast in one second, not giving the 100,000 people time to react.

After the live broadcast, Han Qing looked at the backstage as usual to see the revenue data of this live broadcast.

The peak number of online users was 220,000, with reward income of more than 2.3 million and more than 75,000 people giving rewards.

Including the head fees, Jiang Chen’s income from this live broadcast was about 2.8 million, nearly 3 million.

After looking at the numbers, Han Qing turned off her phone and threw it aside, then asked Jiang Chen, "Where are we going next?"

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Go wherever you want to go, we'll talk about it tomorrow!"

Han Qing: "Okay, is it time for you to rest?"

Jiang Chen: “Yeah!”

Han Qing nodded: "Then I'll go back to my room and rest."

When Han Qing spoke, she stared at Jiang Chen with a hint of hope and passion.

As long as Jiang Chen showed some interest, she would be willing to stay without saying anything, as long as he had the intention.

only……

Jiang Chen turned around, not looking at Han Qing, and was afraid that he would lose control. He looked at the canal and the ancient street outside and said softly, "Well, you are tired today, go back and rest early."

Han Qing looked at Jiang Chen's back, a look of disappointment flashed across her pretty face, but then she smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go back and rest. See you tomorrow, boss!"

Jiang Chen: "Okay, see you tomorrow."

Han Qing turned and left Jiang Chen's room.

Outside the room, Pu Yuexi, Chen Xiaojia, Wang Jing, Li Wen and Qin Xuerong happened to pass by. When they saw Han Qing coming out of Jiang Chen's room, they all smiled and nodded to greet her, with a hint of relief in their eyes.

Han Qing came out, which meant that nothing had happened between her and Jiang Chen, and their relationship was still at the friendship stage.

Qin Xuerong took the initiative to ask again: "Han Qing, if you need my help with the work that Jiang Chen gave you, feel free to contact me. You're welcome."

Han Qing nodded: "Okay, thank you Sister Xuerong, I will ask if you need anything."

Qin Xuerong smiled and nodded, then greeted Pu Yuexi and the others with a smile, then turned back to the study to continue appreciating the works that were temporarily loaned to Qin Hanming.

She has already framed it and hung it in the study. I look at it for a while in the morning and afternoon. Now I want to look at it again before going to bed at night.

of course.

Not only her, but also Qin Hanming, He Xianzhang, Wang Zhenhua, Li Hui, and Su Haijun would take time out to go to the study to look at these works.

She is now worried that after returning to Shanghai, she may not be able to take her children to school for teaching.

Because Qin Hanming and Wang Zhenhua were keeping a close eye on these works. If she took them away and was discovered, the old people would definitely be angry.

But if grandpa agrees with her pace and is discovered by the others, they might also want to borrow it, and grandpa would be hard to refuse. Qin Xuerong would not be willing to see Jiang Chen's work being borrowed so frequently by so many people. Jiang Chen would probably be angry if he knew about it.

Han Qing returned to the room and took out the Zui Hua Yin that Jiang Chen had given her. She looked at it again and again, a happy smile on her face, and murmured softly, "The boss only wrote the lyrics for me and gave it to me, so I have the greatest chance. I am the most unique one in the world!"

……

After Jiang Chen watched Han Qing leave, he began to wash up.

Jiang Chen suppressed all those messy thoughts in his heart and didn't think about them.

He still wants to live a carefree life alone.

If you are dating, you have to consider marriage. After marriage, you have to have children. With children, there are more things to do. You will never have a free time in your life...

I dare not think about it!

After washing up, Jiang Chen lay on the bed, checked the messages on his phone, replied to Wei Ge and Lao Peng, and politely declined the proposal to go to Jinling again.

After chatting with his mother for a while, Jiang Chen ended today's social activities. He watched the cow's hoof being repaired for a while to relieve stress. When the time was up, he closed his eyes and went to sleep.

……

Qin Xuerong returned to the study and read Jiang Chen's "Mu Jiang Yin", "Lang Tao Sha Ling" and "Yu Meiren" again and again. She liked it more and more.

Then, Qin Hanming, He Xianzhang, Wang Zhenhua, Li Hui, Su Haijun and others also came over and watched for a while.

He Xianzhang joked: "If I don't take a look at it at night, I can't sleep when I go home. I'm always thinking about it."

Qin Hanming also nodded: "Yes, I feel the same way. It's a pity that Han Qing's work could not be borrowed. I'm afraid I won't be able to see it in the future."

Several people felt a little regretful.

Judging from Han Qing's attitude, she will definitely keep it as a treasure and will not show it to anyone easily. It is impossible to lend it out.

They could no longer see the original painting of Drunken Flower Shadows written by Jiang Chen.

"Xiao Jiang's talent is amazing."

Li Hui exclaimed in praise.

They watched for more than ten minutes before returning to their rooms to rest.

Qin Xuerong slept directly in the study room. She checked the messages on her mobile phone and found that many students in the class group had been giving her suggestions.

"Professor Qin, I know that you and your grandfather have several original works of Lao Jiang. Can you bring them to the school to open our eyes?"

"Professor Qin, I want to read Lang Tao Sha Ling. I want to read the original work written by Jiang Chen. The flowing water, falling flowers, spring is gone, heaven and earth. I still get goose bumps when I read it now. I want to read it so much."

"I want to see it, don't say it's not heartbreaking, the curtains are rolled up by the west wind, and people are thinner than yellow flowers."

"Professor Qin..."

……

Not just students.

Qin Xuerong also received a message from the head of the Chinese Department: "Xiao Qin, I heard that the original works of Jiang Chen, Lang Tao Sha Ling, Mu Jiang Yin, and Yu Mei Ren, are temporarily stored in your grandfather's shop. I wonder if you can borrow them to display at school in a few days?"

Qin Xuerong was quite surprised!
She knew that the students in the class had watched Jiang Chen’s live broadcast. After all, Jiang Chen was very popular in Shanghai.

But, do older people like the department head also know Jiang Chen?
Qin Xuerong asked curiously: "Director He also knows Jiang Chen?"

Director He replied, "Of course I know. The whole school is discussing it. Students and teachers in the office are all talking about it. I think it's hard not to know. Some of his works, such as Min Nong, Lang Tao Sha Ling, Mu Jiang Yin, Yu Mei Ren, and Zui Hua Yin, amazed me. He is simply not a person of our time. It's as if a great writer from a thousand years ago traveled through time to the modern era. These works don't seem like they should appear in our time."

What Director He said was from his heart, and it was also the direct feeling of Qin Xuerong, Qin Hanming, He Xianzhang and others.

The more familiar and in-depth the industry insiders are with Chinese culture and modern literature, the stronger the sense of contrast will be.

The works written by Jiang Chen are so amazing. There is a huge gap between them and the level of today's literary figures. They do not seem to be something that people today can write.

Director He: "I have discussed Jiang Chen with several old friends in the school. It would be best if we could invite him in person and bring his works here for study and exchange."

Qin Xuerong: "It's difficult. Jiang Chen doesn't want to go back to the Magic City now. He wants to continue traveling. Judging from his mentality, he probably won't go back to the big city for the time being."

Director He: "I've noticed that, so I don't expect him to come in person. If we can borrow his original works, we can observe and learn from them."

Qin Xuerong knew that the department director and grandpa were old acquaintances, so he immediately replied: "Director He, I don't dare to agree to this. Why don't you ask my grandpa himself? Or, it would be best if you could ask Jiang Chen himself. It would be best if Jiang Chen himself agrees. We can even publicly promote these three works in the department."

Director He replied: "Then I will call your grandfather and ask him to ask Jiang Chen if he can bring these works to the school so that we can hold a research meeting!"

"By the way, can Lao Qin bring back the painting Drunken Flower Shadow that Jiang Chen just wrote today?"

Qin Xuerong said directly: "It is impossible to bring Zui Hua Yin back. We may never see the original work again. Han Qing cherishes it very much and treasured it when she brought it back. We can't see it even if we are on the same boat now."

Director He: "That's a pity. These works are truly masterpieces that are worthy of being passed down through the ages. Jiang Chen is the biggest surprise in today's literary world. Please ask Jiang Chen if he is interested in coming to Shuangxing to talk about these works to our students. We will give him an open class."

Qin Xuerong was slightly stunned, and then felt that this was not strange.

Jiang Chen's talent and calligraphy level in these works are enough for him to teach in any prestigious university.

Director He is a relatively open-minded department head who often mingles with young people. Seeing that many students in the school like Jiang Chen's works, he himself also likes them very much. Naturally, he wants to invite Jiang Chen to give a class at the school and meet with everyone to talk about literary creation.

Qin Xuerong replied: "I can ask for you, but in my opinion, Jiang Chen will not agree."

Director He: "Just because you don't agree now doesn't mean you won't agree in the future. Ask first and leave an impression. When Jiang Chen has time in the future, invite him to be the first to give a lecture at Shuangxing. Otherwise, I think it may be difficult to invite him in the future."

Qin Xuerong thought about it and felt that what Director He said made sense.

Although Jiang Chen is currently only popular in the Yangtze River Delta region, with his talent and strength, he will definitely not be buried. It is only a matter of time before he becomes popular all over the country and is accepted and sought after by everyone.

By then, other famous universities will certainly want to invite Jiang Chen, and Jiang Chen may not have the time to deal with invitations from so many universities.

Now Shuangxing should take the initiative to reserve a spot. Even if Jiang Chen doesn’t have time to go there for the time being, he can be the first to go to Shuangxing when he has time in the future.

Double Star can gain a reputation as a first-mover, which will greatly help enhance the school's reputation.

Qin Xuerong: "Okay, Director He, I'll ask tomorrow."

Director He: "It's better to ask now and confirm it as soon as possible."

Qin Xuerong: "Jiang Chen is sleeping now."

Director He: "You went to bed at ten o'clock?"

Qin Xuerong: "Well, he went to bed at ten o'clock in the evening and got up at six in the morning."

Director He: "Then he is more like an old man than us..."

Qin Xuerong: "Then you should go to bed early too."

……

Early the next morning.

Jiang Chen still opened his eyes on time at six o'clock.

The biological clock has been completely fixed.

The first thing Jiang Chen did after opening his eyes was to check the system message as usual to see yesterday’s self-discipline reward.

"Obtain a song from a parallel world."

"Obtain an ancient poem from a parallel world."

"Experience gained: 300."

No surprises.

It's just an ordinary harvest.

Song accepted.

It's not a sin for a man to cry.

Ancient words accepted.

Jiangchengzi.

The information of the two works was instantly integrated into Jiang Chen's memory and became Jiang Chen's own works.

Three hundred experience points, still there.

Jiang Chen is waiting to accumulate enough experience points to upgrade a master-level skill.

After receiving the reward, Jiang Chen picked up his phone and uploaded the song "Travel" he sang last night to Penguin Music.

This time, several works he recorded with Pu Yuexi and others in Yangzhou last time have been uploaded, and the remaining works have not been recorded yet.

However, Jiang Chen is not in a hurry about this. He plans to record a few more songs together when he has time and opportunity on the road.

I looked at the last uploaded songs, "My Brother Sleeping on My Upper Bunk" and "Your Look", and the sales of both songs have exceeded 300,000. The highest-selling song is still "Single Love Song", which has exceeded 600,000.

As soon as the travel video was uploaded, more than 10,000 people paid to download it.

Jiang Chen got up, washed up, and walked out of the room.

Han Qing was already waiting at the door. When she saw Jiang Chen, she happily shouted, "Good morning, boss."

Jiang Chen: "Good morning!"

Han Qing did not wear Hanfu today. She only had that one set of Hanfu and could not wear it every day. Today she wore a casual outfit, a white T-shirt, jeans, and her hair was in a simple ponytail with some hair sticking up randomly, showing her youthful vitality, as pure and clean as a student still studying in school.

"Let's go. I told the kitchen yesterday to make us a lighter breakfast."

Han Qing said to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen: "Thank you, Han Qing, for thinking of so many things."

Han Qing said with a smile: "This is my job. I am your assistant. It is my job to take care of you."

Jiang Chen: "But you are a live broadcast assistant, not a life assistant."

Han Qing said seriously, "That's also an assistant. I'm your only assistant. Everything you do is what I should do. Just do what you like and don't think too much. I'm willing to do this."

Jiang Chen smiled and said nothing.

When the two arrived at the restaurant, Han Qing started her morning outdoor live broadcast, live streaming her breakfast.

It was just a little after six o'clock, and seven or eight thousand people quickly poured into the live broadcast room.

Some of these people are night owls and have not slept yet, some have just gotten up to go to the bathroom and are preparing to go back to sleep, and almost no one gets up normally at this time.

They received a notification from the platform and saw Jiang Chen was broadcasting live, so they all went straight into Jiang Chen’s live broadcast room.

Seeing that Jiang Chen and Han Qing were already having breakfast together, the audience in the live broadcast room all complained.

"Lao Jiang, Xiao Qingzi, you go to bed so early and get up so early every day, and you exercise every day. Do you want to live a hundred years?"

"Xiao Qingzi is so innocent today. Is she the junior high school girl who just finished the college entrance examination?"

"Old Jiang, stay in Suzhou and don't leave."

"Lao Jiang, now that you're in Suzhou, why don't you go back to Shanghai? Shanghai and I both miss you."

"Old Jiang, don't go back to the Magic City, come back to Yangzhou, this is your home."

"Stop arguing, Lao Jiang is coming to Hefei to play."

……

Jiang Chen glanced at the many comments flashing on the live screen, picked up a scallion pancake and took a bite, saying: "I'm going to participate in an event today, and then I'll play for an afternoon after it's over. I should be leaving Suzhou tomorrow."

After a pause, Jiang Chen thought for a moment and said, "Where to go next? I don't have a specific destination yet. I just want to go north, towards the capital. If there's somewhere I want to go on the way, we'll stop and take a look. If there's no place I want to go, then we'll go all the way to the capital."

The number of viewers in the live broadcast room exceeded 15,000, and after hearing Jiang Chen's words, they all spoke up.

"Wow, the people of Beijing welcome you, Lao Jiang."

"Old Jiang, come directly to Beijing. I will arrange everything for you."

"Old Jiang, don't go to the capital so soon. Why don't you come to Mount Tai to have a look?"

"Lao Jiang, come to Huangshan first. It is the best mountain in the world. Once you have seen Huangshan, you will not want to leave."

"Lao Jiang, just take a boat from Suzhou along the canal to Beijing..."

"Lao Jiang, come to Lianyungang to see the sea."

……

Jiang Chen did not answer the numerous invitations on the barrage, but just ate his breakfast slowly.

After breakfast, the two went to the deck with Han Qing to start this morning's exercise.

The autumn chill has arrived.

The two men stood on the deck and noticed that the ship was docked next to a bridge last night. Not far away was a small hill with a group of quaint buildings on the hill.

This is obviously a scenic spot.

"We live directly in the scenic area."

Han Qing said with a smile.

Many comments in the live broadcast room were also full of envy.

Such treatment is definitely not something that every tourist can enjoy.

Jiang Chen faced the scenery that he had never seen in the big city of Magic City before, and he started exercising happily, doing push-ups, sit-ups, and jogging...

Jiang Chen exercised for about an hour before he stopped.

The audience in the live broadcast room has changed several times. Some people left because they got bored after watching for a while, and many viewers came in curiously to see Jiang Chen. The number of viewers has remained at around 30,000.

After a while, Pu Yuexi, Chen Xiaojia, Li Wen, and Wang Jing also got up. Their recent schedules have been much better than before. They got up around eight o'clock, stood on the deck and warmed up with Jiang Chen and Han Qing, which made many viewers in the live broadcast room jealous.

Five fairies with different temperaments exercise with Jiang Chen, and the picture is very beautiful.

However, Pu Yuexi and the others hadn't done much exercise for many years, so they were too tired to warm up and gave up, and ran off to have breakfast.

Then, Qin Xuerong, Qin Hanming and others got up one after another, stood on the deck to warm up, and then went to have breakfast.

After Jiang Chen finished his exercise, he went back to his room to wash up.

Han Qing ended the outdoor live broadcast in the morning and looked at the data of the live broadcast. The maximum number of online users was more than 40,000, the number of people who gave rewards was more than 10,000, and the reward income was more than 500,000!
Even robbing a bank isn't that fast.

……

The sun rose and shone warmly on the boat.

Some people came outside one after another, all of them were older.

He Xianzhang, Su Haijun, and Qin Hanming all came out to greet them.

"Old Huang, here I come."

"Old Hu, come up quickly!"

"Hahaha, Lao Li, long time no see!"

The visitors were from Suzhou Calligraphy Association and Writers Association, as well as good friends in the circle.

Today we are all here to participate in the activities at Hanshan Temple Scenic Area.

The scenic spot invited writers and calligraphy masters to participate in a live broadcast event to show the local scenery and culture to the online audience, and then write inscriptions on the spot.

It can be said to be a very official event and not many people pay attention to it.

After all, most young people who surf the Internet have no interest in these gatherings of old men and women.

When Qin Hanming saw some old friends from Suzhou, he said excitedly: "Old Huang, Old Hu, Old Li, come on, come to the study, I'll show you some good works!"

Huang Wenqing, Hu Yu, Li Cheng, and several middle-aged men who followed them all followed Qin Hanming's pace with polite smiles on their faces.

They all knew that Qin Hanming liked to collect calligraphy and paintings, and perhaps he had collected some good works this time.

However, they are all veterans in the cultural circle, so whose works have they not seen?

Huang Wenqing laughed and said, "Old Qin, whose work did you buy again? Last time you said you wanted to buy a work by Li Qian, but have you already bought it?"

Li Qian was a calligraphy master who lived three hundred years ago. He was known as the last calligraphy master in China. His calligraphy was unique and his works were extremely valuable. His representative works were auctioned for a sky-high price of 80 million yuan.

Qin Hanming was stunned for a moment, then thought about it carefully and said with a smile: "Oh, Li Qian's work, I bought one a long time ago and left it in my study at home and forgot to bring it with me!"

He now has little interest in other works in his family collection.

Li Cheng: "Oh? Whose work did Lao Qin buy that made you so excited?"

Qin Hanming smiled proudly and said, "I didn't buy it. A friend lent it to me temporarily. I'll show you!"

Several people followed Qin Hanming to the study. Qin Xuerong had already tidied up the calligraphy works neatly and in order!
Huang Wenqing, Li Cheng, Hu Yu and others had already arrived and immediately saw the three works hanging on the wall.

Lang Tao Sha Ling, Mu Jiang Yin, Yu Meiren!

The room suddenly became much quieter.

Huang Wenqing, Li Cheng, and Hu Yu immediately quickened their pace and came to the wall, staring at the three works with wide eyes, moving their gaze slowly, looking at every word carefully!

The several young and middle-aged men and women who came with the three people also stared at the three works with wide eyes.

"I don't realize I am just a guest in a dream, I indulge in pleasure for a moment."

"Flowing water, falling flowers, spring is gone, heaven and earth!"

"Good, good, good, it's really well written, and the handwriting is just beginning to touch the master level!"

"How much sorrow can one have? It is like a river of autumn water flowing eastwards... Good..."

Huang Wenqing read Lang Tao Sha Ling and Yu Mei Ren, then looked at Mu Jiang Yin, turned to look at Qin Hanming, and asked curiously: "Old Qin, which Song Dynasty writer wrote this? Why don't I have any impression of it?"

Master-level calligraphy is rare even among the great writers of the ancient Tang and Song dynasties.

Li Cheng was also puzzled. "Yes, such a work, such calligraphy, could not have been created by an unknown person. Why can't I remember it? The signature is Jiang Chen?"

Li Cheng frowned and pondered his memory, then turned to look at the others and asked, "Who is Jiang Chen?"

The few people who came with them also looked confused, and it was obvious that they didn't know who Jiang Chen was.

It can be seen that they may not have paid attention to Suzhou's online news and live broadcasts in the past few days.

Qin Hanming had a smug look on his face and was about to speak.

Qin Xuerong, who was standing by, saw Han Qing and Pu Yuexi setting up a desk for Jiang Chen on the deck outside. He took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone and said in surprise, "Jiang Chen is going to write again!"
