Who taught you to be a celebrity like this?

"What are A-Ye's family circumstances?"

To be honest, I'm not entirely sure either.

"However, Ah Ye's father is also in the industry; he is a senior assistant director."

"Yeah, she's really amazing. She's completely capable of starting a film crew on her own. She's helped a lot of junior directors, and she's helped me too."

"If it weren't for Ah Ye's father, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to play my first official role and become known to everyone."

Liu Chun clasped his hands together in front of the camera, expressing his sincere gratitude to Li Ye's "father" in front of the live stream audience.

Liu Chun wasn't deliberately making things up; he genuinely believed that Li Chengsong was Li Ye's father.

Why does Li Ye live in a house by himself?

Liu Chun had tried to get information out of Li Ye several times about this matter, and on one occasion, in order to learn more about Li Ye, Liu Chun even bought some wine.

The two drank until late into the night. Li Ye, quite drunk, couldn't help but hug Liu Chun and cry, saying many things—

I was so happy when I was little, and I regret not being with my parents that day. If they had been there, things might have turned out differently.

Actually, Liu Chun vaguely heard Li Ye say that he no longer had parents.

But upon first meeting Li Ye and Li Chengsong, whose features resembled each other, Liu Chun had already prejudged them as father and son, and even made his own reasonable deduction—

Li Ye's mother may have passed away, and Li Chengsong has remarried and moved into a new house.

The early death of his mother and the remarriage of his father, who may have even had an affair, caused Li Ye severe psychological trauma and led to his withdrawn personality.

Even when drunk, they are unwilling to reveal much.

The logic is perfectly closed.

As Liu Chun spoke, he became more and more fluent, and almost couldn't help but reveal his deductions about Li Ye's family background, which made him feel a little guilty.

But when he saw that the number of viewers in the live stream surged by more than 30,000 after he answered a few of Li Ye's questions, he was instantly filled with excitement.

"Family members, please follow me! If you all enjoy watching my live streams, I'll stream more often in the future!"

"Would you like to say more? Sure, let me see if anyone else has any questions."

"How is A-Ye doing now?"

Liu Chun omitted the "Do you regret posting this Weibo to show off?" that followed the comment in the live stream. After some internal struggle, he finally replied with a laugh, "Aye is definitely doing very well. He's living a very comfortable life."

"To be honest, I was quite worried about him, but seeing that he was perfectly fine and went surfing the next day, I felt much more at ease."

"Don't believe me? I'll show you the chat history."

"He even took photos and posted them on WeChat Moments a couple of days ago, but I can't show them to you now. Anyway, don't worry, this matter has no impact on him, and he's very happy."

......

The sky was overcast, and the waves roared.

The wind and rain were fierce, and the rain stung the exposed skin, making it impossible to fully open one's eyes.

Zhang Hai swam towards Li Ye, who had fallen into the waves again. By the time he arrived, Li Ye had also surfaced.

"We can't rush it anymore!" Zhang Hai shouted at the top of his lungs!

Li Ye wiped his face, gave Zhang Hai a thumbs-up, and continued paddling forward.

"You fucking come back here!" Zhang Hai was furious. It was like calling his own brat to take a bath. Every time, the brat would say, "Just a little longer," and he couldn't be roused at all.

However, in this situation, Zhang Hai did not dare to pull Li Ye away at will, so he could only follow Li Ye at a distance so that he could arrive at the scene as soon as possible if Li Ye was unfortunately injured.

Li Ye knew Zhang Hai was anxious, and he himself was anxious too, but they were just a little bit short. He could feel that the "experience bar" was about to be filled, and he didn't want to give up just like that.

With strong winds and high waves, paddling required three to four times more energy than usual. Li Ye arrived at the wave spot, adjusted his breathing, and focused intently, his eyes filled with determination.

Siu!!

A wave over three meters high surged in, like a large truck speeding by, creating a loud bang.

"No, no, Ah Ye!"

Zhang Hai hadn't expected such a huge, rapid wave to come; his voice cracked from shouting, and his heart was in his throat.

However, Li Ye didn't hear it at all and resolutely chose to catch the wave.

At this moment, he felt no fear, nor any heroic desire to conquer the wave; only tranquility.

The board turns, paddles, takes a step, lowers the center of gravity to the bottom of the wave, then suddenly turns the tip of the board almost 180 degrees, the tail of the board bursts out a large fan-shaped spray of water, rushes to the top of the wave, soars into the air, completes the rotation, and then falls back into the wave, all in one smooth motion.

"Awesome! Holy crap, awesome!"

Zhang Hai, who was furious earlier, turned into Guan Yu again after seeing Li Ye's extremely violent and flawed performance.

puff.

The wave was rapid and dissipated quickly; Li Ye fell into the water shortly afterward.

On the stormy sea, Li Ye poked his head out, his upper body leaning on the surfboard, panting heavily. Then, he looked at Zhang Hai not far away and gave him a bright smile.

Become!

Zhang Hai, who could only see Li Ye's white teeth, didn't care whether Li Ye could hear him or not, and laughed and cursed: "You son of a bitch."

......

The live stream peaked at 36 viewers, with an average of 15 viewers online at any given time, and an average of over a thousand comments per minute...

After an hour-long live stream ended, Liu Chun stared blankly at the live stream statistics page, enveloped in joy and immersed in the fantasy that he was finally going to become famous.

However, at this moment, his manager, who had been in the room the entire time, angrily pulled him out of his reverie: "Why did you make this decision on your own?"

"Where did I act on my own initiative?" Liu Chun, suddenly faced with accusations, retorted angrily.

The agent was taken aback by Liu Chun's unexpected reaction, who had always been very respectful to him, but calmly asked, "Why did you answer Li Ye's question about his creative process?"

"I didn't say anything."

Liu Chun felt a little guilty, but still stubbornly said, "I was just joking with the netizens, and didn't I say later that I believe in Li Ye's talent?"

"In the eyes of netizens, you are Li Ye's friend and shouldn't speak like that. Right now, Li Ye's public opinion environment is bad, so it doesn't matter to you, but there will definitely be a backlash in the future."

The agent observed Liu Chun's reaction and then shook his head: "To be honest, I'm not quite sure what your relationship with Li Ye is."

Liu Chun brought up the live stream to the company on his own initiative, and Li Ye didn't mind him using his popularity.

The company also temporarily anticipated some unexpected problems that Liu Chun might encounter and repeatedly reminded him of some questions that he could not answer.

Questions about Li Ye's songwriting are unanswerable; this is a bottom line for a singer-songwriter.

Neither the company nor Liu Chun could guarantee whether Li Ye's works were original, so they could just ride the wave of popularity without having any real connection.

During the live stream, the agent discovered that many of Liu Chun's remarks were suspected of being manipulative.

He now had some doubts about whether Liu Chun had really obtained Li Ye's consent, and whether Liu Chun even knew what he was saying.

Liu Chun wasn't just profiting from Li Ye's online traffic, but also from Li Ye's negative online presence.
