They don't actually think I like them, do they?

The music style is close to British and rock, with a slow tempo and a melancholic tone.

What truly made fans remember him was his deep, moonlit voice, with a slightly husky quality.

Such a voice is naturally suited for singing sad love songs, and those who like his voice are often unable to extricate themselves!

Therefore, Xue Zhiqian created a dark and self-deprecating world in a corner of the Chinese music scene!

This song, "Ugly Monster," is one of them.

Soon, the first climax arrived.

Lin Han closed his eyes and slightly opened his mouth.

"Ugly monster~"

Could you please not turn on the light?

The love I want~~

Appearing on a completely dark stage!

......"

The moment Lin Han sang out that high note, Xu Hui's heart trembled deeply!

He could hardly find the words to describe the shock he felt when he first heard this passage.

It's like... a roar!

It wasn't an angry or irritable cry, but a powerless and desperate one.

In a daze, Xu Hui looked through the glass of the recording studio.

I saw my own reflection.

Xu Hui's expression turned into a wry smile.

Yes, it's a world that judges by appearance. Everyone says we are born equal, but from the moment we are born, we are divided into different classes. Some people are born to be protagonists, while others, perhaps in middle school, elementary school, or even kindergarten, are divided into different classes at some point.

The nightmare began the moment he suddenly realized he was "not good-looking." Inferiority complex became deeply ingrained, accompanying him throughout his life. Even his every move was disgusting, criminal.

I can only deceive myself by hiding under the covers on a dark night.

When he met Xiaoya, he thought he had finally found someone who understood him. But it turned out that he was not only a simp, but also so ugly that he didn't even have the right to be known by the people around her!

So, do these ugly people deserve all of this?

Do not!

"...

Ugly monster~~

Actually, it gets less strange after a while.

Go have a blast!

Stomp on it hard, and that fragile whiteness is exposed!

Ugly monster~~

This is our era.

"It's surprising that I don't exist..."

Yes.

In this world, ordinary people are the norm.

There aren't that many good-looking people out there!

Makeup, powdering, beauty filters, photo editing... In this era of short videos, everyone is forced to get involved, their eyes dazzled by the dazzling array of the internet.

Some things are predetermined; appearance is merely the most obvious impression each person gives to others.

To deny one's own existence because of this is utterly superficial. Everyone has the right to scream!

Xu Hui roughly understood the significance of Lin Han writing this song for him.

This is to let Xu Hui, on behalf of millions of people who feel inferior, utter this roar!

092. Male lead in the music video

When Lin Han came out of the recording studio, Xu Hui already had a look of disillusionment with the world. His eyes revealed a clear understanding of worldly affairs.

"Lin Han, I have something important to tell you," Xu Hui said slowly.

"You're attacking me?"

"Who the hell yelled at you?!"

Xu Hui cursed, taking a deep breath as he spoke.

"I can appear in your music video."

"But, the female lead in my music video has to be pretty."

"Are there enough oranges for AWM?"

"Enough!" Xu Hui exclaimed excitedly, "That's more than enough!!"

......

After the music recording was completed, the music video for "Ugly Monster" immediately entered the intense preparation stage for filming.

To be honest, Lin Han has been struggling in the Chinese music scene for so long, but in order to write more songs or make money as soon as possible after writing them, he has never made a music video.

And a physical album of Orange Jam can't be without visuals, right?

This led to a very strange phenomenon: all of Orange Jam's physical albums could only be released by purchasing film and television rights, making a few edited clips, or simply looping Orange Jam's personal photos.

Despite this, Lin Han's physical albums still frequently sell out. This has become one of the many absurdities of Jujiang's work in the Chinese music scene.

Actually, music videos aren't that important for singers. Unlike idol groups, singers don't need to constantly appear in various places to attract fans.

Ninety-eight percent of music fans don't really care about music videos.

However, just because something is no longer important doesn't mean it has no value. A good music video can help fans understand the meaning of the lyrics, allowing them to better comprehend and immerse themselves in the song, and it can also contribute to the song's wider appeal.

Late at night, on a dark street, the faint light of streetlights falls on the ground.

A professional filming team set up their equipment here.

Thanks to the foundation laid by Star Moon Entertainment, Jusheng Media has a very mature MV production chain, including the dedicated team that shoots MVs for AWM.

Wang Mo, a seasoned MV director, never imagined that one day he would be able to shoot a MV for Juzi Jam, and that the other party would be his own boss.

What was even more unexpected was that Orange Jam had already written the shooting script! She handed it to Wang Mo, and all he had to do was shoot according to it!

Wang Mo carefully studied the script for a long time and couldn't find a single flaw. It was a very mature MV shooting script.

Genius, this must be what genius is all about!

"President!"

Lin Han was still chatting with the actors and director when a clear female voice rang out. He turned his head and saw Chengzi, who had already finished her makeup, walking over.

Orange wore a single ponytail, a gray mini skirt, a white top, a fluffy shawl draped over her shoulders, and eye-catching silver earrings, looking every bit the sophisticated urban woman.

Beneath the skirt, a pair of bare legs were fair and slender.

Among the many beautiful women in AWM, there's a saying: Mangzi has breasts, Taozi has buttocks, Pingzi has waist, and Chengzi has legs.

Being known for her legs among so many beautiful girls speaks volumes about her value.

"How is it, boss? Do I look alright in this outfit?"

Orange stood with her hands in her pockets, looking at Lin Han with a rather smug expression.

Orange was extremely happy to be able to star in Lin Han's first music video, while Peach was reportedly so frustrated last night that she didn't even eat properly.

Lin Han stroked his chin, pondering for a moment.

"Put your ponytail down."

Orange ripped off her hair tie, and her long, golden waves of hair cascaded down like a waterfall. Orange looked up and gazed at Lin Han with deep affection.

"That's it!" Lin Han clapped his fist.

There are several reasons for choosing Orange. First, she's from AWM, so she already has a large following.

And most importantly, there's Orange's goddess-like aloofness and inherent pride.

Some girls, no matter how beautiful, lack this cool and aloof feeling, and therefore don't have the aura of a goddess.

When Lin Han first met Chengzi, before his identity was revealed, he was often given the cold shoulder by Chengzi. Only Chengzi could act out that feeling of a goddess looking down on you from the bottom of her heart!

Therefore, when it came to choosing the female lead for the music video, Lin Han's first thought was Chengzi.

It's definitely not because I wanted to be paired with Xu Hui that I didn't choose any of the other AWM members!

"Brother Hui, come and rehearse your lines with the female lead."

Lin Han called out to Xu Hui, who was leaning against a street lamp in the distance, lost in thought.

Xu Hui stood up and slowly walked over. His eyes lit up when he saw Chengzi.

"Hello, Sister Orange..."

"Call her Teacher Orange," Lin Han reminded him.

"Yes, Ms. Orange!"

Xu Hui reached out his hand.

By the moonlight, Orange was clearly stunned when she saw Xu Hui's appearance.

She looked at Lin Han in disbelief.

The look in his eyes clearly said: This? The male lead? Are you serious??

The song is called "Ugly Monster," but there's no need to actually cast an ugly monster in it! And it's an amateur!

Lin Han smiled without saying a word.

Chengzi then slowly looked at Xu Hui, forced a smile, and took Xu Hui's hand.

Because of Chengzi's hesitation, Xu Hui's hand hovered in the air for a full three seconds.

These three seconds once again utterly shattered Xu Hui's self-esteem.

However, this time, he gritted his teeth, a rare occurrence, and suppressed his emotions.

not the right time yet.

He needs to accumulate his strength and unleash it at a certain moment!

Filming is about to begin.

The music video primarily uses parallel montage. The main storyline revolves around the relationship between Xu Hui and Chengzi. It tells the story of how Chengzi rejected Xu Hui because of his appearance and broke up with him.

Interspersed throughout this story are scenes of Lin Han singing with his band under dim streetlights.

This is Lin Han's improved and upgraded version of "Ugly Monster" from his previous life. The original "Ugly Monster" had almost no plot; instead, it was a person wearing a mask constantly making various twisted and strange movements to express emotions.

Lin Han specially tailored this story for Xu Hui, using his story with Xiao Ya as the prototype, and added this plot.

"Have you memorized all your lines?" Lin Han asked Xu Hui one last time to confirm.

"We're already familiar with each other, and there were no problems rehearsing the scene just now."

Xu Hui said somewhat guiltily,

"But I still feel like I can't film it well..."

"It's nothing," Lin Han said.

"You don't need to act. The prototype is you. Just release your most genuine emotions and let your true feelings flow. The effect will be great!"

Shooting begins.

......

The night sky was clear, and the moonlight was bright.
