I was exposed for adding my female boss to my group of female friends.

"His real name is Zhou Wenshan..."

Jiang Xinhai frowned, then relaxed his brows, then frowned again.

The name Zhou Wenshan has absolutely nothing to do with Chen Ya.

If Chen Ya wanted to create a real name for himself, he probably wouldn't have chosen such an unrelated name.

Seeing the change in Jiang Xinhai's expression, everyone suddenly felt a little anxious.

"What happened? What's Tianya's real name?"

"Tell us quickly! Xinhai, what did you hear?!"

The comments scrolled by one after another, and after a full half minute, Jiang Xinhai finally relaxed his brows and said:

"The ends of the earth are indeed not as close as they seem."

Inside the room, everyone breathed a sigh of relief without realizing it.

"That scared me to death! I really thought there was something wrong with my worldview just now," He Ling said, patting her chest.

Jiang Xinhai stuck out his tongue and said, "It seems everyone is too tense."

Qin Yunchu trusted Jiang Xinhai's judgment, but she still felt that something was wrong, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

"But why do 'close at hand' and 'far away' have so many similarities?"

“Coincidence,” Wang Feng said. “It can only be said that geniuses may have a lot of similar coincidences.”

Yan Yunzhu patted his chest and said, "I almost had a cardiac arrest just now. That's right, how could '咫尺' and '天涯' be the same person?"

Yingzi crossed her legs and suddenly said, "Being close at hand and being worlds apart can never be the same person."

She hadn't said much since joining the show, but now that she suddenly spoke, the camera and everyone's attention turned to her.

Yingzi toyed with a cup in her hand, her legs, clad in high heels, were crossed high, and she said with a cold expression:

"Just think about it, how many songs did Tianya write during those years when Zhichi was writing songs?"

Yan Yunzhuo looked at Jiang Xinhai and Xu Xiangxiao and said, "In my memory, you two have many famous songs, at least dozens?"

Wang Feng pushed up his glasses and said, "It's not just a few dozen songs. Both the quantity and quality of their songs far exceed your imagination."

Xu Xiangxiao said, "I saw a fan count before, and it's 190 songs. There are 12 albums in total."

Jiang Xinhai shrugged: "I have about 150 poems."

Yan Yunzhuo's eyes widened: "So many? There aren't this many famous ones, are there?"

Wang Feng said, "There are many famous ones. If you listen to their complete works, you will find that almost every song is a masterpiece."

Yingzi continued, "What I mean is, 340 poems between the two of them, if '咫尺' and '天涯' were written by the same person, how could they write so many in 3 years, that's 110 poems a year, nearly 10 poems a month, or one poem every 3 days? Is that even human?"

Chapter 152 My Identity Has Been Exposed

A little over 3 years, totaling 340 songs.

One song every three days on average.

Even those outside the music industry can understand the absurdity of this speed.

"Holy crap, I can barely finish an 800-word essay in a day, let alone a song in three days, this..."

"Hahaha, I always said that '咫尺' and '天涯' could not possibly be the same person! Only someone who hasn't heard their songs would think that!"

"Did anyone actually believe that just now? Hurry up and stick your face out so I can slap it, hahaha..."

Comments flooded the screen, but Qin Yun Chu was not convinced.

“Writing a song in three days isn’t that difficult for Zhichi, is it? Before, Xin Hai’s ‘Encounter’ was also something that Zhichi came up with in just one afternoon, right?” she said.

Yingzi laughed, as if she were laughing at her ignorant younger brother.

“Mr. Qin, he definitely didn’t come up with more than a dozen complete songs all afternoon, just some motivations,” Yingzi said. “Do you know what a motivation is?”

Qin Yun Chu shook her head.

Yingzi said, "When conceiving a song, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely a certain rhythm pattern, just like when writing a novel, you think of a theme. It is often just a very simple melody."

She switched legs and said, "From this melody, we gradually expand and expand until it becomes a complete song. Do you know how complicated it is to go from the initial motif to the formation of a complete song? It's like a ten-month pregnancy!"

The musicians present all nodded in agreement.

If creating a song is like a ten-month pregnancy, then a single motivation is equivalent to a fertilized egg.

Whether they can successfully grow into adulthood is still uncertain.

Qin Yun Chu shook her head.

Despite Yingzi's explanation, she still shook her head.

“Even if it was a ten-month pregnancy, Zhichi did write 12 songs within a month. If he were to write songs on his own, it would be possible for him to write one song every three days.”

Yingzi said, somewhat exaggeratedly, "You're being a bit argumentative, little sister. Doesn't he get any rest?"

“He can write several poems a day and then take a break,” Qin Yunchu said.

Yingzi smiled helplessly: "I'm not going to talk to you anymore, you don't understand music."

Qin Yun Chu whispered, "You don't understand what's so close at hand."

"Alright, alright," Xu Xiangxiao stepped in to smooth things over. "There's no need to argue about this anymore. Isn't it already confirmed that they're not the same person? So there's no need to discuss whether it's possible or not."

Qin Yunchu sat down and took a big gulp of water, but her heart was still beating very fast.

Yingzi's words were entirely correct from her own perspective; she simply disliked Yingzi's arrogant attitude.

Wang Feng said quietly, "So the question now is, why is the song 'Summer Breeze' by Zhichi Creation so suitable for Xiang Xiao to sing..."

Xu Xiangxiao clearly felt a thick, pure negative energy rising from the direction of Jiang Xinhai beside her, like a huge black mist rising from the ground.

She quickly said, "It's common for musicians to learn from each other's styles. I've listened to this song several times, but I haven't found any melody that's the same as any of my other songs."

"It's just that the styles are similar," Gao Xiaobo concluded. "Maybe 'Zhi Chi' was originally intended to be sung by Xu Xiangxiao?"

Xu Xiangxiao covered her mouth: "Oh dear, then I've missed the opportunity to work with him."

Jiang Xinhai had a handful of sunflower seeds in his hand, but when he heard her say that, he opened his hand and found that many of the shells had been crushed.

“But I don’t collaborate with anyone other than Tianya,” Xu Xiangxiao quickly added.

The live stream chat was flooded with comments:

"That's emotional intelligence."

"Haha, Xiangxiao is so cute."

"It's clearly plagiarism, why are you trying to cover it up for him?"

"You can shut up now. Xu Xiangxiao didn't even say it was plagiarism. Look at you, so confident."

"Only if Tianya believes it's not plagiarism, then it's truly not plagiarism."

"+1, unless Tianya speaks out, even if the King of Heaven himself comes, he's still plagiarizing. It sounds exactly the same."

The live stream chat was abuzz with arguments over whether or not it was plagiarism.

Jiang Xinhai rubbed his face and said, "I'll go back and ask him... never mind, I can't wait, I'll ask him now."

She took out her phone and entered Chen Ya's number on the screen.

……

Chen Ya squatted on his office seat, stretching his legs comfortably onto the desk.

The laptop on the table is playing "The Poetic Life".

He now sits alone in an office, and his posture at work is becoming increasingly unrestrained.

At this moment, he was on his phone, admiring the 40+ GB of files that Xia You had sent him after "collecting evidence" over the past few days.

In the chat box, Xia You, whose profile picture was completely black, sent a message.

Xiao You: [If this thing were thrown, it could land Li Xingliang in jail. Should we do it?]

Chen Ya: [Don't make a move yet.]

Xiao You: [What are you waiting for?]

Chen Ya: [Arresting him now won't do me any good. Let me keep him under control for a while longer.]

Xiao You: [Holy crap, you're the bad guy!]

...While chatting, the music "Poetic Life" was just playing in the background, and he didn't really pay attention to it.

Suddenly, the people on the show started talking about "within reach," which reached his ears.

Chen Ya looked up at the screen and saw Xu Xiangxiao pick up her guitar and start playing "Summer Wind".

Chen Ya listened blankly to Xu Xiangxiao's version of "Summer Wind" for a while, then looked down at his phone.

"Xiaoyou, did you just read 'The Poetic Life'?"

"Looked."

What were they saying just now?

"They're saying that '咫尺' and '天涯' are the same person," Xiaoyou replied from the other end.

Chen Ya slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "Oh no!"

Xiaoyou sent a new message on my phone: "Are you the same person? Tell me!"

"..."

Chen Ya lost his phone and didn't want to talk to her.

He regrets it now.

In his previous life, "Summer Breeze" was originally a song released in 04, sung by Landy Wen.

In that era when gods were fighting, this song wasn't considered popular.

But more than a decade later, it suddenly became a hit song, topped the charts, and began to brainwash people.

When Chen Ya was selecting Jiang Xinhai's "Revenge Song", the range of songs he could choose from was very narrow.

Because most of the popular songs that can be copied have already been copied.

When I thought of the song "Summer Wind," I didn't think twice and just pulled it out.

So he forgot an important point—the composer of "Summer Breeze" is Jay Chou.

Some people have roughly estimated that Jay Chou has written nearly two hundred songs for himself since his debut.

I wrote more than 200 poems for others.

"Summer Wind" was one of the songs he gave to others to sing.

This kind of thing is so common in Jay Chou's career that he doesn't even need to think about it.

For example, he wrote "Elimination" for Eason Chan, "The One I Love" for Jordan Chan, "That's Not Love" for Angela Chang, and "Rewind" for Jolin Tsai...

Unless specifically pointed out, these songs don't carry much of a "Jay Chou flavor".

Chen Ya gave Jiang Xinhai the chance to sing "That's Not Love" and "Rewind," and he didn't have any problems with it.

In addition, Chen Ya has been away from the music scene for many years and has done many other things in between, so he is no longer as sensitive to things like writing and revising songs as before.

So when I gave "Summer Breeze" to Jiang Xinhai to sing, I completely forgot that in this life, he had a tragic love affair with Xu Xiangxiao.

And coincidentally, Xu Xiangxiao is also a musical genius. She probably recognized it immediately: "Summer Wind" has a "very Tianya style".

Chen Ya both loves and hates Xu Xiangxiao: She's too amazing.

Because "Summer Breeze" was the song that Jay Chou originally planned to include in his album "Ye Huimei".

Therefore, this song has a very strong flavor of Jay Chou's love songs from his early to mid-period.

Chen Ya's account "Tianya" is almost entirely dedicated to copying Jay Chou's songs. In the eyes of people in this world, this song is "very much in the style of Tianya".

On the screen, Jiang Xinhai was already taking out his phone: "I need to ask Zhichi what's going on with him."

Then, the screen of the phone Chen Ya was holding lit up.

He glanced at it, quickly pressed the red "reject" button, then turned off the phone, skillfully removed the SIM card, and replaced it with another one.
