Perfect Superstar

PS Chapter 87 – First Lesson

A trace of unobservable anger flashed in Lu Ya’s beautiful eyes.

She has been in the industry for more than ten years. Although she is not one of the top singers in the industry, she used to be a first-tier singer. So, she was a bit outraged now. Has there been a time when she was interrupted so rudely before she could finish speaking?

The judge who interrupted her was Zhuang Hao, an editor and critic at the fashion magazine “Xiu Mei”.

In terms of reputation in the industry, Lu Ya dumped the other party at least three blocks! (TN: Meaning she has more reputation compared to the other party.)

But Lu Ya did not express her anger directly, because when Jenny Chen lit the red light, she felt something was wrong, as if the contestant named Lu Chen had been deliberately targeted.

After being in the entertainment industry for so many years, Lu Ya has always remained pure and incorruptible, but also very clear how deep the water is in this industry. She has seen a lot of darkness and filth hidden under a glamorous appearance!

Therefore, she instinctively kept silent.

Those who complain about unfairness will never be able to gain a foothold in this indusrty.

Zhuang Hao did not look at Lu Ya and just stared at Lu Chen and said, “I agree with Zhang Xiaoan’s opinion. Your song style is too old, the melody seems to have been used before, it lacks enough originality, and sounds too amateur, so I can’t give you a pass.”

His voice was calm and dry as if he were presenting a tedious report, but the faint disdain and ridicule in his words made people, who listened to it, feel awkward and embarrassed.

However, to the surprise of the four judges, including Lu Ya, Lu Chen was neither embarrassed nor angry, nor did he defend or protest, or pleaded for another chance, like many young singers who has been eliminated.

He nodded and politely said, “I thank the four judges for their comments...”

What a pity!

Lu Ya has a trace of intolerance in her heart. in her opinion, Lu Chen is very good and should not be suppressed.

That’s right. Zhuang Hao’s objective was so obvious that the only thing missing was the word “suppress” on his face!

She did not know who Lu Chen had offended.

Then, in the next moment, Lu Chen straightened up and looked directly at Zhuang Hao and said, “But I don’t agree with Teacher Zhuang Hao’s opinion. I have completed the copyright registration of this song in the Greater China Music Library a long time ago. There is no plagiarism or imitation. Anyone can buy it for 100,000 yuan.”

He smiled confidently. “But I didn’t sell it.”

What is called face slapping? This is called face slapping. Moreover, this is face slapping done face to face!

Didn’t Zhuang Hao commented that the melody “You at The Same Table” was lacking enough originality? Well, Lu Chen told him that the song was copyrighted in the Greater China Music Library.

Are you more authoritative than the Greater Chinese Music Library?

It’s true that some people wanted to buy it for 100,000 yuan, but Lu Chen, of course, did not sell it. This classic is reserved for himself.

Too old and too amateur? Is the person who wanted to buy it a fool?

Zhuang Hao’s face flushed red in an instant.

This is not the first time that Zhuang Hao has served as a judge of “Super Singer”. He is used to judging contestants from above. Although he has seen many unruly guys, this is the first time that he has been slap in the face.

No matter how thick-skinned he is, he can’t withstand a heavy slapping!

In addition to Zhuang Hao, Zhang Xiaoan and Chen Jenny also felt that their faces had been slapped by Lu Chen.

Lu Chen didn’t give them a chance to fight back. He nodded to Lu Ya, and left freely.

Of the four judges, he only had a favorable impression to Lu Ya.

Bang!

Zhuang Hao slammed his pen heavily on the table and scolded angrily, “Nowadays, young people are becoming more and more impolite and not open-minded at all. No wonder the atmosphere in pop music is getting worse and worse.”

Zhang Xiaoan calmly said, “Yes, so we should strictly check, and those with bad conduct should be eliminated, otherwise Xiangnan Satellite TV will lose face in front of the whole nation.”

Chen Jenny picked up her notebook and fanned it vigorously. She sneered and said, “With that kind of temper, no wonder someone wants to give him some color to see. He really doesn’t know how high the sky is!”

Zhuang Hao and Zhang Xiaoan turned their heads and look at her at the same time. They looked at her strangely – how could she say that?

Lu Ya was stunned but didn’t feel much surprised.

Jenny Chen didn’t care about their strange gazes. What if there were four cameras on the scene? This video is 100% to be cut, and no one would care about a little new singer.

The auditions for “Super Singer” continued.

Lu Chen walked out of the Capital Stadium, and the afternoon sunshine hitting on his face was still hot.

He took a long breath, and also spit out resentment.

Although such a result was expected by Lu Chen, there was not a trace of fantasy in his heart. Perhaps Chen Jianhao had a prejudice against Jin Hongwei and lost his accurate judgment?

But the bloody reality taught him a lesson!

Don’t think that you’re so great. In the eyes of some people, you’re just a random chess piece!

Lu Chen clenched his fist.

He became more and more determined to follow the path he wanted to take.

His cell phone rang.

Lu Chen picked it up.

“Lu Chen, I just heard the bad news. You didn’t pass the audition for “Super Singer”?”

There came the voice of Jin Hongwei on the other side of the phone, and there was a tone of regret in his voice.

Lu Chen said, “Yes, thank you for your concern.”

He answered with a smile and sneer on his face – sure enough!

Jin Hongwei could not see Lu Chen’s face and continued, “That’s all right. It’s not terrible for young people to fail once. The door of our Juxing Agency is always open to you. We can provide you with a pass to the elimination stage!”

“In the evening, I arranged for the two judges to come over for dinner and sit down. If you apologize to them, I think...”

Beep! Beep!

Before he could finish his speech, the call was cut off.

Jin Hongwei was immediately stupefied and dialed Lu Chen’s mobile phone number again.

The answer he got was: “Dear user, the phone you dialed is not in the service area...”

“Damn it!”

Jin Hongwei finally understood. Then out of shame and anger, he threw his mobile phone out.

This tone means that Lu Chen has added his number to the blacklist and he didn’t want to talk to him anymore.

In other words, after he spent so much effort making a storm, it was still completely in vain.

Lu Chen doesn’t like him at all!

Jin Hongwei has never met a new person who is so unappreciative and stubborn.

His lungs were about to explode!

However, Lu Chen didn’t care what the other party’s reaction is. He has no desire asking anything from Jin Hongwei. Not only he has been calculated by other party and humiliated, but now he has to bow down to them. He would rather buy a piece of tofu and hit his head on it and die.

They can just f*ck off! (TN: I could not think of another term.)

Placing Jin Hongwei’s mobile phone number into the blacklist, Lu Chen felt refreshed and clear-minded.

Just three seconds later, his phone rang again.

This time, it was Chen Jianhao who called, which made Lu Chen wonder whether he had discussed this with Jin Hongwei.

Of course, this idea is just a joke, Lu Chen immediately picked up, “Brother Jianhao?”

Chen Jianhao smiled and said, “Did Jin Hongwei called you just now?”

Lu Chen was surprised, “How do you know that?”

Chen Jianhao sneered, “With his character, I can guess what he said to you. Did he ask you to sign a contract with Juxing Agency to ensure you can advance in the “Super Singer”? Did he ask you to apologize to some of the judges?”

Lu Chen was completely speechless – It is as Chen Jianhao said!

Chen Jianhao laughed, “You are really fierce. You haven’t yet mixed in the entertainment industry, but you already offended a few insiders. I heard that Zhuang Hao’s face is almost swollen because of you. You really scolded him!”

Lu Chen smiled bitterly and said, “I was impulsive.”

“What impulsive?”

Chen Jianhao said with a smile, “You did very well. That grandson needs to be taught a lesson. Anyway, you don’t have to worry about it anymore. You should concentrate on preparing for the live audition on July 3 and the qualifying trials on July 10.” (TN: For those who still don’t know. Grandson is an insult.)

Chen Jianhao gave Lu Chen a pass card for the audition of Zhang Jingcheng Satellite TV’s “Singing China”. So, he no longer had to participate in the preliminary auditions held at the Capital Workers’ Stadium today, and can directly enter the official auditions.

Chen Jianhao also believes that Lu Chen can easily pass the auditions and advance to the qualifying round!

“But you have to remember what happened today, this is your first lesson in the entertainment industry.”

“I think you’ve learned a lot.”

“Work hard, young man!”
