Chapter 88: Cycle Completed

What a blockhead!
This is the only evaluation of Shi Dafu by the agent.

After saying that, she completely gave up and sat beside Shi Dafu, watching her cook and stir-fry... She secretly saved two extra bowls of rice for herself as a snack in the evening...

Keep on talking.

But he didn't leave.

Because she is just a small agent with no connections, Shi Dafu is the most popular artist under her, and the fate of the two is actually closely linked.

If Shi Dafu were to "give up", she would have no future.

Just like that, one of them was chattering neurotically while the other was cooking silently.

After half an hour.

Shi Dafu's brother and sister-in-law returned home. When the eldest brother saw his agent coming home, he suddenly became reserved and kept scratching his head: "Ah... Sister Wang is here... I'm going out to buy some more meat..."

"no, I'm fine."

The agent stood up hurriedly, and he didn't really mind the "simple" attire of Shi Dafu's brother and sister-in-law.

"That won't do. You're a guest, and you usually take such good care of Xiao Nier... You must stay for dinner tonight."

The eldest brother blushed and waved his hands, insisting on going out to buy some more things.

My sister-in-law was also there to persuade me.

"It's okay, she's used to it."

Seeing this, Shi Dafu said softly, "No need to go out and buy it."

broker:"……"

But the eldest brother and his wife were also very reserved when facing Shi Dafu, nodding hesitantly. The sister-in-law came over to help, and the eldest brother went into the inner room to take care of the old lady.

"An honest family, alas."

The agent sighed inwardly and stared at Shi Dafu: "You...you, you, I surrender."

Shi Dafu worked hard, and everyone spent the dinner in silence.

It was not until the end of the meal, when Shi Daifu took the initiative to wash the dishes, that the eldest brother came over hesitantly, looking at Shi Daifu, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"What's wrong?" Shi Dafu knew that her brother was even more depressed than she was, so she asked.

"Xiao Ni'er...Brother and your sister-in-law have discussed it and decided to go back home. Mom has finished seeing the doctor. Your sister-in-law and I will take her back to take care of her and not cause you any more trouble."

The eldest brother stole a glance at his agent, who was still standing on the balcony looking out the window, and lowered his voice: "She didn't give you any trouble, did she?"

Shi Dafu was stunned and shook her head.

The eldest brother sighed, wanting to say something, but he was a little tongue-tied, and stammered, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. If it really doesn't work out... let's go back home and stop being bullied. I haven't been educated much, but I know the entertainment industry isn't a good place. If we don't stay, then we won't stay!"

Shi Dafu lowered her head and said nothing.

The eldest brother became even more silent and walked out with a sigh.

The agent walked in at some point and squinted at Shi Dafu: "Is your nephew going back to his hometown?"

Shi Dafu quickly raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, but still said nothing.

"Hey, I thought that after appearing on 'The Voice of China', I would slowly get better. I helped your mother with her medical treatment and let my elder brother and his wife take advantage of it. But now, if you continue not to cause any trouble, then neither of us will have to."

The agent said this, but he also felt a little sore under his eyes.

flap.

Shi Dafu suddenly stood up and walked outside with her cell phone.

The agent was overjoyed: "Have you figured it out?! Want to call?"

Shi Dafu paused and said in a nasal voice, "I'm going out to listen to music... and do some boxing!"

broker:"???"

You'd better die quickly!
Don’t be in the entertainment industry in your next life, sister, it’s not suitable!
……

"Hasn't 'The Voice of China' been running for five or six years? It's always had a good reputation, and the results were so good this time. Will the production team take the initiative to target the guests?"

the next day.

Ikeno returned to the set of "Loop" to begin filming the final scenes.

During lunch break, he sat in the RV, watching several music variety show announcements while asking Coco.

"The Voice of China" is a hit music variety show produced by Tomato TV. This show is different from other music variety shows. It has always spoken with "strength". In the past few years, it has made many previously out-of-date singers popular again.

Being in the entertainment industry, Ikeno certainly knows that there is no absolute fairness, but "The Voice of China" has a good reputation in the circle, so he really doesn't know what happened to Shi Dafu.

“It’s not the program team’s fault.”

Keke explained, "The participating singers and celebrities are targeting them. They're taking advantage of the competition system, the song selection, and the content of regular interviews, and using their usual tactics of buying negative press releases off-site..."

After listening to Coco's brief explanation, Ikeno finally understood.

The competition system of "The Voice of China" is very simple. It is to invite the top music stars from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong to compete. During this period, as the competition progresses, various links such as grouping, helping with singing, song selection, and scoring will be carried out.

Shi Dafu's former company has strong connections in the music industry. There are three singing kings and queens participating in "The Voice of China" alone.

In addition, there is the hatred that Hua Yichen and Yue Na have for him - Yue Na also has two talented singers participating.

There are only seven singers in Tianlai Voice now, and this group directly occupies five of them. So when choosing songs, you should choose those that Shi Daifu is not good at, and don't take it too easy.

In addition, there is the most important scoring session. It is easy to do in the venue because they are all audiences screened by the program team, and fans account for a very small proportion. However, this year "The Voice of China" has added a new off-site voting.

The proportion is not high, but it is useful.

This is also the reason why Yuena is confident that it can help Hua Yichen become a singing king.

Shi Daifu's reputation is already bad, as she is constantly backstabbed by her teammates on the court and there are a lot of negative reports outside the court. It would be a miracle if she can advance.

"This old son, he can really jump around."

Chi Ye now feels a pang of anger whenever he hears any news about his beloved son, because Hua Yichen really treats him as his father now and keeps chasing and biting him.

Insider gossip: Hua Yichen must perform a ritual for Chi Ye before going to bed every night, otherwise he won’t be able to sleep well!

Fuck, a son is always a son, and you still want to kill your father?
He picked out the invitation for "The Voice of China" from a bunch of announcements: "Let's go with this one. It's just the right time to keep the heat going during the preparation period for the next drama."

Coco was not surprised by Ikeno's choice.

Because among all the music variety shows, the popularity and reputation of "The Voice of China" are overwhelming, which is no less than the hit variety show "See You".

However, music variety shows are different from variety shows like "See You". This is a place where you can really "become famous in one battle" based on your real strength - and most importantly, you can hit Yue Na and beat Hua Yichen!
"According to the rules, there are two ways to join. The first is to directly join the club (permanent), and the second is to help sing (flying)."

Keke explained: "The production team is quite sincere. 'Restart' has already gained influence in the music scene. They said that based on our schedule, we can choose ourselves. We can help out in the next episode. If the schedule doesn't work, we can go directly to challenge the host in the next episode."

Ikeno remembers his schedule quite clearly - because he actually doesn't have too many schedules now.

Why is the music scene pulling in now?
Just look at him and you will know that the popularity of "Reboot" is quite good, right?
But there is no quality endorsement, and the only announcements are music variety shows and singing engagements with internet celebrities...

It's really hard to hold.

"Not in the near future. 'Loop' is only half a month away. I have to finish filming before I can participate in the variety show."

Ikeno thought for a moment and said, "Let's continue the negotiation. Hasn't this variety show just begun?"

"Yeah, that's what I thought too."

Coco nodded.

"The Voice of China" became a hit as soon as it was aired, which is rare, but it did attract many old monsters who had long since "retired to the mountains".

So, this is truly the long-awaited "Huashan Sword Contest" in the Chinese music scene.

After the two discussed work matters and had dinner, Ikeno continued to devote himself to filming.

The filming of "Loop" is nearing completion. Ikeno has always attached great importance to this "first" film and television drama. ...

Haiqiao Street, on bus No. 45.

The stuffy air seemed to be frozen by the tense atmosphere.

Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun's action to save everyone in the car ran into Tao Yinghong's resolute obstruction, and the conflict broke out in an instant like a lit powder keg.

In the cramped aisle, Li Shiqing took the initiative and rushed towards Tao Yinghong, who was holding the pressure cooker tightly in her hands, trying to snatch the deadly "time bomb". The carriage instantly became a mess.

Xiao Heyun was stabbed in the abdomen by Tao Yinghong. He frowned, clenched his teeth, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead and slid down his cheeks that were twisted in pain.

Director Zhang, behind the camera, stared at Ikeno's close-up, his mouth slightly open. "Fuck! Is this guy on drugs? He's acting so well?"

The people around were holding their breath.

——This is the last scene of "Cycle", a scene that had been shot previously, but the director was not satisfied with it and needed to reshoot it.

After this scene is over, the three-month-long filming of "Loop" will be completed.

No one dared to speak, for fear of disturbing Chi Ye and Ran Qiao who were already immersed in the role, as well as the veteran actress who played Aunt Guo.

……

The director's monitor.

Chi Ye raised his head and saw the crazy Tao Yinghong rushing towards Li Shiqing again, with a flash of determination in his eyes - that was the kind of determination that could instantly penetrate the screen, protect his companions, and save everyone in the car.

"We can't let her go on like this!"

With trembling hands, he fumbled for the fruit knife in his pocket in panic. His breathing was rapid, his chest heaving violently, and his eyes were red with fear and anger.

"We can't go on like this, or everyone will die..."

He seemed to be cheering himself up again, his blood rushed up, his body leaned forward, and he used all his strength, and with a "puff", he stabbed the fruit knife into Tao Yinghong's stomach.

"Ah!" The veteran actress who played Aunt Guo let out a scream, her body shook a few times, and she slowly fell to the ground.

The other actors in the car have also entered the role.

Some people opened their eyes wide and covered their mouths in horror, some huddled in their seats, clutching the armrests with their hands so tightly that their knuckles turned white, and some were stunned, as if frozen by this sudden change.

Xiao Heyun's hand holding the knife trembled violently. He shook his head and stepped back, his eyes empty and confused, muttering to himself: "I...I...I killed someone?"

The voice was trembling and choked.

"..."

Director Zhang, who was behind the monitor, waited for a long time. Seeing that Chi Ye was still in this state, he immediately yelled, "Crack!!!"

"I declare that 'Loop' is finished!!"

Crash.

The originally stagnant atmosphere in the carriage seemed to come alive, and all kinds of noises were heard instantly.

"Oh~!!"

"It's done, it's done!"

"I can't bear to leave everyone."

"I don't know if our play will be a hit."

"Teacher Chi performed very well just now."

"It's outrageous that the crew didn't ask Teacher Chi for help."

Director Zhang also stood up, walked to Chi Ye, and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, your eye acting and lines are amazing. I didn't expect such an effect, but you acted it out for me. I was nervous with you..."

Chi Ye has recovered as before. He helped Ran Qiao up and waved his hand: "Don't try to get close to me. You still have to pay more if you have to."

"Hey, look at you, all you talk about is money. How vulgar, so vulgar!"

Director Zhang shook his head, but he didn't forget to ask the real question: "When will the songs for 'Cycle' be written? The money has been agreed, so shouldn't the songs be released?"

Ikeno: "Yes, yes, you can edit it first. I will definitely finish it for you before the show airs."

Director Zhang was suspicious, feeling that Chi Ye was just trying to make something big happen for him.

"I heard you're going to be on 'The Voice of China'... Can you sing our theme song on the show? Wouldn't that give our show some serious publicity?"

Director Zhang rubbed his hands cunningly: "Free publicity, an effect that can't be achieved by spending any amount of money!
Chiye: "..."

Squinting: "You are such a mean person, let's keep our distance."

Director Zhang: “?”

He sneered, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Aren't you also trying to promote your new album? Are you pretending to be nice to your buddies?"

Ikeno waved his hand, said hello to the veteran actress who played Auntie Pot, and then got off the bus: "That's part of the reason, but not entirely."

Director Zhang: “?”

Chi Ye didn't waste any more time talking to him. He took photos with a few familiar actors in the group, and then took a group photo together. Then he slipped away and called Teacher Shi, who he hadn't contacted for a long time.

They seemed to be busy on the other end, so the call was connected after a while.

"Hello? Teacher Shi?"

"Ah."

A slightly nasal voice came from the other end of the phone.

Ok?
Chi Ye was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Teacher Shi, your Ye is here."

"what?"

Shi Dafu, who had just finished recording the show, was stunned and didn't react. She asked blankly: "What... is coming?"

"Hmm... ahem..." Chi Ye thought to himself that Teacher Shi was still the same as before and couldn't take a joke!

He smiled and said, "I'm going to be on 'The Voice of China'. Didn't the production team tell you?"

Shi Dafu was silent: "No."

Ikeno: "So you know now, right?"

"understood."

"Do you have anything to say? I chose to sing as a supporting singer. Can we discuss the subject matter of the song?"

"it is good."

Chiye: "..."

Why is it on standby again?
He paused, remembering the nasal sound just now, and asked tentatively: "Did something happen?"

"No...um...wait a moment." It seemed that there was something else going on over there, and a quarrel could be heard faintly.

"What do you guys mean by the hidden meaning behind our conversation? It's been several times since you, Hua Yichen, are the junior, and you treat my teacher Shi like this?"

"What are you eliminating? I'm telling you, don't be so bullying!"

"Hey, hey, what are you doing...are you going to do it again?!"

There was a commotion over there for a while, and then Chi Ye heard a clear "crack" sound coming from there, as if something like a stick was broken.

There was silence for a moment.

After a while, Shi Dafu's voice sounded again, still so gentle: "Well... go on."

Chiye: "..."

What the hell!

You're not going to kill my son right there, are you?!
