This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 78 Luckily, Lu Ran is in the entertainment industry!

Wang Ying felt her head buzzing.

It's such a waste that you're not in the system!

Who are these people!
Who let you into the entertainment industry?

On television, the show "The Future Singer" continues.

Because it's the premiere, you can't fast forward.

Lu Ran's performance was still in its final stages.

Around nine o'clock, the program came to an end.

The host announced that Lu Ran was about to enter the stage.

On the live chat, Lu Ting's name kept appearing.

There were also complaints from fans of other singers.

This is normal; no one can please everyone.

Ning Sirou and the others also perked up and watched the TV intently.

Various rumors are circulating online, and all the viewers want to know one thing: whether Lu Ran sings well or not!

Did the public jury really give low votes on purpose?

As Lu Ran walked onto the stage, song information soon appeared on the big screen.

I am a little bird.

Lu Ran wrote the lyrics, composed the music, and sang the song.

Ning Sirou glanced at Lu Ran, her eyes filled with envy.

She's not a good singer; you could even say she's tone-deaf, let alone write songs.

Lu Ran is far ahead of her.

I can do everything!
Music started playing, and Lu Ran's singing voice filled the air.

Another high note that blew the entire audience away!

"I am a tiny little bird, wanting to fly but unable to fly very high~"

I searched and searched, searching for a warm embrace~

"Is this a bit too much of a demand?"

Ning Sirou thought of Lu Ran's experiences during this period.

Viewers of the video also had this in mind.

Lu Ran is that little bird.

Many people also thought of themselves, realizing that they too are just little birds in society.

"Why haven't you advanced yet!"

"Let's see what the public jury has to say!"

"I'm still more interested in what Jiang Yaofeng said!"

To everyone's surprise, Jiang Yaofeng did not criticize this time, but praised instead.

This is a common whitewashing technique.

Then, Jiang Yaofeng's fans started flooding the screen with comments.

"Previously, criticizing Lu Ran was the mentor's responsibility, but now acknowledging his progress is being criticized? Can the haters please stop with their double standards?"

"Those who say Jiang Yaofeng is targeting Lu Ran can shut up now, right?"

"Jiang Yaofeng loves music, and everything he does is from a musical perspective!"

"Jiang Jiang will never hesitate to praise truly good music!"

"Stop talking about standards, Jiang Jiang has his own benchmark!"

As we all know, fans in the entertainment industry have a knack for speaking, and they even invent some bizarre words that challenge the limits of the Chinese language, such as "sitting on the ground to ovulate."

However, Lu Ting's fans were not buying it.

Everyone here isn't stupid; they've all been trained under Director Lu.

As the saying goes, don't look at what a person says, look at what a person does.

"After all that talk, they only cast five votes in the end."

"Those who sang worse than Lu Ran before all got ten votes, so why did Lu Ran only get five votes?"

"You can fool yourself, but you can't fool us. Isn't this just whitewashing?"

"No need to say anything to the guys in front, these people are brainless, they won't admit it no matter what you say."

No one seemed to care about Jiang Yaofeng's performance.

As long as it doesn't affect Lu Ran's advancement, it's fine.

Soon it was time to announce the total vote count.

Everyone perked up, eager to see how the production team would handle the situation.

After the vote count was announced, the number of votes from the public jury was quite low.

Immediately, the live chat exploded with comments.

"It really is a conspiracy!"

"The public jury was definitely blind!"

"Why is it so low!"

However, the noise from the audience was edited out in the released video.

Then Lin Xingchu stood up to speak for Lu Ran, and Lu Ran silenced the audience judges who had given zero votes one by one.

Ning Sirou clenched her little fists.

She also began to worry about Lu Ran.

This industry is just that shady.

Later, after Lu Ran righteously and solemnly said, "Don't say that floating clouds will always block out the sun, there will always be a time when the clouds clear and the fog dissipates," he applied for a second performance.

"Director Lu is truly a positive role model; he hasn't given up yet!"

"When our comrades face difficulties, we must see the achievements, we must see the light, and we must strengthen our courage!"

"If it were me, I probably would have thrown the microphone down and walked away."

Ning Sirou looked at Lu Ran with her beautiful eyes, her round oval face filled with admiration.

Calm and composed, neither arrogant nor humble—that's Lu Ran!
Maximize your strengths within the rules.

He stood on the stage, like a sun.

You can use all sorts of methods to cover up his brilliance, but the sun will always be there.

As soon as the production team agreed to Lu Ran's second performance, the comments section erupted in noise.

"Why is he allowed to perform it a second time?"

"The production team is being way too good to Lu Ran!" "Hey, this isn't just about the production team being nice to Lu Ran, there's something wrong with this, it's unfair!"

"That's right. Besides, it would be so embarrassing to sing it again under these circumstances, especially if it's not as good as the first time. Not everyone has that kind of courage."

Netizens held differing opinions.

When the scene shifts, Lu Ran appears on the stage.

He carried a guitar on his back, and only a beam of white light shone on him.

Everyone's eyes lit up.

It turned out to be a guitar performance.

This was the first time I'd seen Lu Ran take out a guitar.

The song information reappeared.

This time, it's still "I Am a Little Bird".

"The same song?"

Ning Sirou blinked her eyes curiously.

The guitar music started, and Lu Ran began to sing.

This time, his singing voice was different from before; it wasn't as passionate, but rather more subdued.

He sang the same song in two different styles.

"To everyone who knows my name, how are you all~"

"The world is so small, we are destined to have nowhere to escape."

"When I've tasted the bitterness and sweetness of human nature, when you decide to burn brightly for your ideals~"

"Which is more important: the pressures of life or the dignity of life?"

When Lu Ran sang this part, the comments section was flooded with the same five words.

The dignity of life!
At this moment, for Lu Ran, the dignity of life is more important!
Don't back down, face it bravely!
This is Lu Ran!
"The same song, but completely different feelings. Lu Ran is truly amazing."

"The lyrics of this song are also quite good, so which one is more important?"

Why did I have to hear this song at this time?!

"Director Lu, put down your guitar! This version is a bit sad!"

"Who forced Director Lu to pick up the guitar? Get out here."

The comments section was full of praise.

In this situation, Lu Ran was still able to improvise and sing such a song on the guitar, which is amazing.

As soon as the song ended, the comments section exploded.

Wang Peng gave Lu Ran a thumbs up.

"Idol, you are amazing."

Ning Sirou and Wang Ying looked at Lu Ran with admiration.

Lu Ran is indeed different from others.

In the end, Lu Ran successfully advanced.

Although he advanced as the 31st in the competition, the audience was already satisfied.

Ning Sirou understood that there must have been a confrontation behind the advancement, a result of discussions among all parties.

As for any contestants who see that Lu Ran was able to advance successfully using this method and want to learn from it, they can certainly try it and see if it works.

However, the main event of today's episode is not over yet.

Lu Ran's final speech was the key.

"The vitality of literary and artistic works lies in the people's recognition, and the standards for artistic evaluation must never be divorced from the masses."

With Lu Ran finished speaking, this episode of "Future Singer" came to a complete end.

When the credits rolled, the background music was Lu Ran's "My Future Is Not a Dream".

"I know my future isn't just a dream; I'm living every minute to the fullest."

The program came to an end with the singing.

In the room, everyone except Li Quan had their eyes on Lu Ran.

Lu Ran's final speech was even more surprising than the song he sang.

Your words are quite insightful!
How many books have you actually read?

Ning Sirou recalled that afternoon in the dressing room when Lu Ran explained why he was acting in the play.

"Could he really be thinking that?"

Ning Sirou felt a little ashamed of herself.

What is enlightenment?

What is political literacy?

What is meant by a high level of intellectual and moral character?

Wang Peng stared blankly at Lu Ran: "Idol, you are making me feel scared right now."

"You haven't done anything wrong, what are you afraid of?" Lu Ran retorted.

He changed the subject: "Or have you done something that offended the audience?"

Wang Peng shook his head repeatedly: "No! Not at all. I have paid all my taxes in full and have never used any tax avoidance methods."

Lu Ran looked at Ning Sirou.

"Are you afraid?"

Ning Sirou shrank back slightly, her pretty face showing a hint of nervousness.

"I'm not afraid. I've never done anything to let down the audience."

Lu Ran nodded: "That's good."

Wang Peng asked curiously, "Idol, could you tell us about the key points of artistic work? I want to correct my attitude."

Lu Ran admired it very much.

“You are teachable, so I will talk about it. I will start by talking about why we should attach great importance to literature and art and literary and artistic work. This issue should first be examined in the context of the general trend of development in our country and the world.”

While Lu Ran was giving his impassioned speech, the topic of the future King of Singers had already become a trending topic online.

The hashtag "I am a little bird Lu Ran" has now climbed to third place on the overall trending topics list.

Coupled with the previous scandal involving behind-the-scenes manipulation of the public jury, Lu Ran's song has undoubtedly become a hot topic.

The top two trending topics are both highly discussed social issues, so it's understandable that we couldn't compete with them.

In the comment section of the first trending Weibo post on this topic, the top-rated comment has already received over a thousand likes.

The comment is:
"Thank goodness there's Lu Ran in the entertainment industry!"
