A person in Wuha: The whole internet is urging me to get back together with my ex!
Chapter 63 Huang Bo leaves to begin album production.
Chen Ye stopped eating the fried dough stick he had just bitten.
He raised an eyebrow and swallowed the food in his mouth.
"So sudden?"
Jay Chou took out a tissue to wipe his hands.
"I was planning to stay for a couple more days, but I got a phone call and there was some personal business at home that I had to go back to take care of."
Chen Ye nodded.
It's normal to have private matters.
These people are usually paid by the minute, but they managed to cancel their schedules to stay at this small guesthouse for two or three days without even asking for their advertising fees. This is a huge favor.
"I understand." Chen Ye picked up the bowl of porridge in front of him and took a sip. "Business comes first."
The voice just fell.
Lin Junjie, who was sitting next to him, also put down the half tea egg he was holding.
"Um... Yezi." Lin Junjie rubbed his hands together, looking apologetic. "I have to leave too. The concert arrangements for this year haven't been finalized yet, and I also need to go back and work on the arrangements for the new album. The team is pressuring me a lot."
Wang Lihong then raised his hand.
"Count me in. I also need to go back and prepare for my concert; my schedule is too full."
Chen Ye looked at these three figures who made up half of the Chinese music scene.
Good guy.
You've planned to run away together, haven't you?
"Okay." Chen Ye readily agreed. "Thank you all for your hard work these past few days. When we go to Shanghai sometime, I'll treat you all to a good drink."
Zhou Jielun smiled.
He leaned back in his chair, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the table as he habitually did so.
"No rush to eat," Zhou Jielun said, looking at Chen Ye. "That five-member reunion album we agreed on needs to be put on the agenda, right?"
Chen Ye raised an eyebrow.
"I'm available anytime, depending on your schedule."
Zhou Jielun's eyes lit up.
"How was today's recording?"
"Anyway, Lao Lin and Li Hong are both here today, so let's go straight to Lao Liu's place, record the song, and take pictures of the album cover while we're at it."
Chen Ye was about to nod.
A sudden wail came from the side.
"no!!!"
Tao Zhe suddenly jumped up from his chair.
He was still holding half a meat bun in his hand.
He stared at Chen Ye, his eyes wide with grief and indignation.
"You all have songs! What about me?!"
"Yezi! You promised me yesterday! What about my song?! When are you going to write it for me?!"
Chen Ye almost choked on the porridge.
"And another thing!" Tao Zhe turned to look at the stairs. "I still have to record a duet with my good buddy Deng Chao! You can't favor one over the other!"
Chen Ye couldn't help but laugh when he saw Tao Zhe's flustered and pale face.
These musicians get really excited when they come across a good song.
"Okay, okay, okay." Chen Ye waved his hand. "I'll write it for you, I'll write it after dinner, alright?"
Hearing Chen Ye's assurance, Tao Zhe sat back down and took a big bite of the steamed bun.
Chen Ye turned to look at Zhou Jielun.
"Sure," Chen Ye decided. "Then the five of us will go record the song today and get the cover done while we're at it."
The four of them, including Jay Chou, exchanged glances and nodded in unison.
Lin Junjie suddenly thought of something.
"Um... Yezi," Lin Junjie asked tentatively, "We four have our solo songs, so what about our group song for the five of us?"
Wang Leehom echoed this sentiment.
"Yes, the requirements for choral pieces are very high. They need to take into account everyone's vocal timbre and also be catchy."
Zhou Jielun stared at Chen Ye.
"Don't tell me you even have a repertoire of choral pieces?"
Yesterday's three consecutive bombshells were already outrageous enough.
If there are already perfect songs that can be sung by five people, these musical geniuses might as well retire together.
Chen Ye leaned back in his chair and smiled.
He picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth.
"We have stock," Chen Ye said calmly. "We can get it."
The restaurant fell silent.
Zhou Jielun stared at Chen Ye for a while without saying anything.
Lin Junjie lowered his head and rubbed his face.
Wang Leehom picked up the soy milk in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.
Sitting on the other side, Huang Bo watched these music industry bigwigs get humiliated and slapped his thigh with glee.
"Alright, alright." Huang Bo stood up, patted the cookie crumbs off his hands, "You guys in music, go fight like gods, I can't get involved."
Huang Bo walked over to Chen Ye and patted him on the shoulder.
"Yoko, I have to leave too."
Chen Ye raised his head.
"Is Brother Bo leaving too?"
"There's nothing I can do," Huang Bo sighed. "I have a cameo role in a movie, and the director is really pressing me. I have to catch my flight after this breakfast."
Chen Ye nodded.
The schedule of a box office king with 10 billion yuan in earnings is indeed tight.
"What a pity." Huang Bo clicked his tongue. "It would have been an absolute landmark moment in the history of Chinese music."
"It's alright," Chen Ye smiled. "There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Breakfast was eaten very quickly.
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, they began packing their things and preparing to set off.
Chen Ye sat in the chair and scrolled through his phone for a while.
He looked up and scanned the entire hall.
Huang Bo's assistant had already pushed the suitcase to the door, ready to get into the car.
Chen Ye frowned.
Lu Han, Deng Chao, and Chen He, these three conspicuous figures, have not been seen since this morning.
Huang Bo is about to leave, and it would be a bit unreasonable if these three didn't come down to see him off.
You still have to be mindful of the interpersonal relationships within the industry.
"Yuqi, you talk to them for now." Chen Ye put his phone in his pocket, stood up, and said, "I'm going upstairs to check on those three."
Song Yuqi was discussing music arrangement with Lin Junjie when she heard this and nodded obediently.
Chen Ye climbed the wooden stairs to the third floor.
The corridor was quiet.
Chen Ye walked to Chen He's door and knocked.
"Bang bang bang".
No one answered.
Chen Ye then struck twice more with greater force.
Still nothing.
Chen Ye turned around and walked to the door of Deng Chao's room next door.
"Bang bang bang".
"Trendy Bro".
A few seconds passed.
The sound of slippers dragging on the floor came from inside the door.
"Click".
The door opened.
It wasn't Deng Chao who opened the door, but Chen He, who had huge dark circles under his eyes.
Chen He let out a huge yawn, with sleep still clinging to the corner of his eye.
"Yezi," Chen He's voice was weak, and he seemed listless. "What's wrong?"
Chen Ye ignored him and strode inside.
The room was dimly lit with thick curtains drawn.
Chen Ye spotted Lu Han sitting at the foot of the bed at a glance.
Lu Han was wearing wrinkled clothes, holding her head in her hands, exuding a sense of despondency and hopelessness.
This kid didn't sleep a wink last night, tormented by both reality and the tarot cards.
Judging from his appearance, he must have been given a severe lesson by Deng Chao and Chen He just now.
Chen Ye pulled out a chair, sat down, and crossed his legs.
"Brother Bo will be leaving soon." Chen Ye looked at the three half-dead men. "Hurry up and pack your things, go downstairs and say goodbye."
Chen He scratched his messy hair and nodded.
"Okay, got it."
Deng Chao and Chen He have been in this circle for so many years, they naturally know what's important.
For someone of Huang Bo's stature, not seeing him off when he leaves would be asking for trouble.
The sound of running water came from the bathroom.
"Wait a minute!" Deng Chao's muffled voice came from inside. "I'll be right back after brushing my teeth!"
Chen Ye sat in the chair and turned his gaze to Lu Han.
The kid remained motionless, maintaining that statue-like pose.
"Alright." Chen Ye kicked Lu Han's slippers. "Stop acting like you're going to die. The sky hasn't fallen yet."
Lu Han slowly raised her head.
The bloodshot eyes were even more pronounced than before.
"Tell me," Chen Ye said, raising his chin. "What terrible ideas did they give you? How did you solve them?"
Chen He leaned against the wall without saying a word, simply watching Lu Han quietly.
Lu Han rubbed her face, her voice hoarse.
"Brother He and Brother Chao said..." Lu swallowed hard, "that they want me to post a clarification on Weibo first."
Chen Ye raised an eyebrow.
"How do we clarify this?"
"I told you... we broke up a long time ago." Lu Han lowered her head, staring at the pattern on the floor. "I've been single ever since."
Chen Ye nodded to himself.
This is indeed the safest approach.
If you want to win someone back, the first step is to clear your name of any past transgressions.
Otherwise, if you're still in a relationship and try to flirt with other girls, you're just asking for trouble.
"And then?" Chen Ye continued to ask.
"Then I'll go and discuss it with Guan," Lu Han said in a muffled voice. "We'll post something on Weibo together."
"They only dated for a little over six months back then, and then broke up peacefully because of personality clashes."
Lu Han sighed.
"Brother He said that people outside have long speculated that we have broken up, but there is no concrete evidence."
"It would be better to take this opportunity to clarify things openly and honestly."
"Establish the image of being single and fill in the gaps left from back then."
Chen Ye laughed after hearing this.
This tactic of retreating to advance is indeed effective.
Although it will inevitably draw ridicule from netizens, it will definitely minimize the damage.
As long as you confirm your single status.
No matter how Lu Han pursues Dilraba in the future, it will be normal love between a man and a woman, and no one can find fault with it.
"That's a good idea," Chen Ye commented. "This is much more reliable than you looking at tarot cards in the middle of the night."
Lu Han gave a wry smile and did not refute.
His mind was in complete chaos, and he could only follow the instructions of his two older brothers.
"What about inviting Dilraba?" Chen Ye asked, getting to the crucial point.
This is Lu Han's ultimate purpose in causing all these strange incidents.
"Brother Chao said that after the clarification statement is released and the storm has subsided a bit,..."
Lu Han rubbed her temples.
"He then personally went to invite Dilraba to be a guest star on an episode."
Chen Ye laughed.
That was a beautifully executed combo.
Clear the mines first, then call for reinforcements.
With Deng Chao stepping in, Dilraba had no choice but to give him some face.
Even out of consideration for our past on Running Man, they would most likely agree.
As for how to break the ice after the people arrive, that depends on Lu Han's own fate.
"Okay." Chen Ye stood up, patted Lu Han on the shoulder, "Now that it's settled, stop being so emo here, hurry up and wash your face, go downstairs and see the guests off."
Chen He also came over and put his arm around Lu Han's neck.
"Yeah, it's no big deal," Chen He laughed carelessly. "We're all here, you think we'd let you stay single forever?"
Lu Han rolled her eyes as Chen He squeezed her, but her tense nerves did relax a lot.
He stood up and walked to the bathroom door to wash his face.
Chen Ye and Chen He chatted for a few minutes about the upcoming recording arrangements.
Less than two minutes later, Deng Chao spat out the mouthwash in his mouth, wiped his face with a towel, and came out.
"Let's go." Deng Chao tossed the towel aside, reverting to his usual energetic demeanor. "Let's take Brother Bo there."
Lu Han also splashed cold water on her face, forcibly suppressing the fatigue in her eyes.
The four pushed open the door and went down the stairs to the first floor.
Just as I reached the corner of the stairs, I saw Huang Bo standing at the front door, talking to Wang Zhengyu about something.
The suitcases have already been loaded onto the nanny van outside.
Deng Chao's expression changed instantly.
Just a moment ago in the room he had a shrewd and calculating look, but now he's all smiles.
He took two steps at a time and scrambled down the last few steps.
"Ouch!"
Deng Chao shouted loudly and walked towards Huang Bo with his arms outstretched.
