Chapter 614: Lin Yu, if you want me dead, just say so! (Please subscribe)

~6 min read 1,146 words

"Holy crap! This song is actually Hua Chenyu's wordless song. I was wondering why the timbre sounded so familiar, like someone was about to set up an altar for a ritual."

"Pfft! Brother Yu's song choice is too on point. Forget Da Zhangwei, I'm convinced too. So 'demonic' was an adjective, not a metaphor! I feel like Lin Yu is playing a very high-level mockery."

"Hahaha, Huang Minghao's rolling and crawling look—his idol image is completely shattered. I'm dying of laughter."

"It looks like Hua Hua's fans are probably going to have a stress reaction again. I've seen that bunch of fans; they're baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, very agitated, like they ran out of a mental hospital. Scary."

"Hahaha, what's there to be afraid of? Our Brother Yu's status is definitely above Hua Chenyu's now. In the domestic entertainment industry, isn't it whoever has the bigger influence who calls the shots? Keep going at this rhythm, I support Brother Yu."

"Exactly, the current entertainment industry is a mess. Any monster or demon can take the stage. Are they really rubbing our audience's aesthetic sense on the ground and trampling it? Writing this kind of song just to make money is too disrespectful."

"Exactly! The 'Master' even argued that this is experimental music for the sake of innovation. If you're going to innovate or experiment, at least succeed before bringing it out! This piece of garbage still has the face to sing it at a concert. It's disgusting!"

"......."

In the live broadcast,

after the Mirinda commercial, Huang Minghao raised his hand and smiled bitterly, admitting defeat. This round of the game was a loss.

In front of the monitor,

"Director He, aren't we going a bit too far? After all, Hua Hua still has a relationship with our station, I'm afraid that..."

Hearing the assistant's words, He Shuhua curled her lips.

Others might not know the inside story, but He Shuhua knew everything about Hua Chenyu.

It can be said that Hua Chenyu was a traffic-level artist hand-picked and promoted by Mango TV. Every year, this "favorite son" of Mango TV would come to the scene to help out at the New Year's Eve concert.

But as Zhejiang TV's variety shows grew stronger, Hua Chenyu chose to defect, abandoning many cooperation projects with Mango TV.

He Shuhua understood that the higher-ups were dissatisfied with Hua Chenyu. This is equivalent to a backbone cultivated by one's own family going to work hard for an enemy station—who could feel good about that?

It's estimated that when this clip is released, not only will it not destroy the relationship between Mango TV and Hua Chenyu, but it will also serve as a warning.

This is naturally what the station leaders want to see.

"It's fine, just broadcast it normally. Besides, this crappy song was created during his time at our Mango TV, so it just happens to save us a copyright fee."

Hearing He Shuhua's words, the staff members all pursed their lips and smiled.

Who needs copyright for this piece of trash?

It doesn't even have lyrics. Besides screeching and scaring people, who would be crazy enough to look for it to listen to?

"Lin Yu, your variety show sense is so strong."

Yang Mi tugged at Lin Yu's sleeve, her eyes full of little stars.

She didn't feel much watching the live broadcast before, but recording the show together made her feel Lin Yu's variety show talent.

Yang Mi was originally worried that the live variety show would be too boring and dull, but after the door-smashing and song-choosing incidents just now,

Yang Mi started to worry that it would be too much, too open, and unscrupulous!

"I'm the type who puts in as much effort as I'm paid for."

"Don't worry, Sister Mi, your appearance fee definitely won't be wasted."

Lin Yu smacked his lips, acting like an old sage.

"Uh... straight man."

Yang Mi rolled her eyes and turned her head away.

Next up was Da Zhangwei.

Da Zhangwei still had his usual laughing, cynical expression. He came to the table, picked up the dice, and threw it into the air, where it landed steadily on the number 2.

Courage Test!!!

Although Da Zhangwei has "Big" in his name, he actually isn't very brave. When he first started secret room escapes, he was scared into a nervous breakdown. After seeing it was a courage test, his expression was a bit complicated.

"Everyone knows I'm not very brave, so..."

Da Zhangwei spoke first, intending to pave the way for choosing the Easy difficulty.

"That works too? Teacher Da, you're too cowardly."

"Yeah! When I was doing it, Teacher Da, you were the one shouting the loudest."

Huang Minghao directly switched to the new members' camp. Since he didn't score, he didn't want others to choose the Easy difficulty and get off lightly.

"You're right, I am cowardly."

Da Zhangwei has been in the entertainment industry for over twenty years; his heart is like a rock. He was long past the age of petty arguments and completely ignored the persuasion of Huang Minghao, Peng Yuchang, and the others.

"Lin Yu, say something."

"Let Teacher Da be brave for once."

Seeing that Da Zhangwei had made up his mind, Yang Mi winked at Lin Yu.

"Teacher Da is a senior, Sister Mi, don't use me as a gun!"

Hearing Lin Yu's words,

Yang Mi's face flushed. This kid figured it out, but don't say it out loud! Do I not need face?

"Don't call me senior, I thank you very much."

Although Da Zhangwei said that, he was inwardly quite pleased and secretly praised Lin Yu's emotional intelligence.

However, the next moment,

"I remember Teacher Da started playing rock music when he was 14, and did so many risky things afterward, how can you say you're not brave?"

Lin Yu raised an eyebrow, acting serious and pointing at something.

Holy crap!

Is that something that can be said?

Everyone present was stunned!

"Okay, okay, okay, stop talking, I choose Hard."

Da Zhangwei directly interrupted Lin Yu's words. The secret praise from just now turned into secret cursing!

Others might not understand this, but Da Zhangwei knew it all too well. In the early years, because domestic music was relatively closed off, forced by the trend of mass production, the Flower Band naturally took the path of imitation and high-end copying.

In fact, it wasn't just Da Zhangwei; many singers in the entertainment industry became famous overnight by plagiarizing.

For example, that rapper with the surname Pan—almost all his songs were copied from foreign scores, especially those from South Korea and Japan.

Looking closer, the singer with the surname Li with small eyes was the same; basically, all his melodies were imitations of a Western guitar master's simple scores, and even his style was no exception.
