"Can that be the same?" Hua Hua Chenyu shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Do you even understand?"

"Look at them, playing the violin, guitar, saxophone on the street, that's called art!"

"Look at what we sell on the street?"

"Clappers? Erhu? Suona? Isn't it tacky? Isn't it shameful? That's begging!"

"Can these tacky things be mentioned in the same breath as street art?"

Su Meng's gaze toward him grew colder.

If a foreigner performs on the street, it’s called art, but if our ancestors do it, it’s called begging?

Screw you!

What kind of bullshit logic is that?!

Seeing the two arguing, the chief director didn't stop them, but was instead excited.

It's here, it's here, my traffic password is back!

But the chief director was calm, while the other stars were not.

Deng Deng Deng Ziqi grabbed Su Meng and said repeatedly.

"Su Meng, it's normal to have differences in musical philosophy, don't get angry over this."

"Um... I'll go with you to sing tomorrow, we can't just eat their banquet for free, right?"

Boss Yang and the others also gathered around, talking all at once.

"I don't think tapping the broken bowl is hard, why don't you teach me, and I'll do it tomorrow?"

"No, you followed Su Meng to beg yesterday, tomorrow it's my turn to tap the bowl."

"Brother, you are my real brother, don't leave me out of this kind of street performance."

Vaguely, several people stood on Su Meng's side.

Su Meng snorted coldly and smiled reluctantly.

"Alright then, let's act together tomorrow."

Seeing Su Meng stop talking, Hua Hua Chenyu thought he had been rendered speechless by him.

He immediately became smug like a victorious rooster.

You call that music? Pfft! Tacky stuff!

My music is the real art!

However... Hua Hua Chenyu suddenly remembered, Su Meng's livestream has always been bursting with popularity?

Since that's the case, Hua Hua Chenyu rolled his eyes and said loudly.

"Aren't you guys going to perform tomorrow?"

"Do you dare to take me with you?"

"I want to show you what real street art is!"

Su Meng was suddenly angry, I was going to let you go, but you're asking for it?

Do you really think I'm afraid of you?

Aren't we both just traffic-driven idols?

Come on, let's fight, who's afraid of whom?

Staring coldly at Hua Hua Chenyu, he suddenly smiled.

"Alright, then tomorrow let me, this country bumpkin, witness the style of you, the artist."

In the livestream, seeing the two tear off their masks, it exploded.

"Damn! They're fighting! They're fighting head-on!"

"I noticed they were a bit at odds before, but they were at least restrained, now they're not even acting?"

"I stand with Su Meng on this one! Why is it art when foreigners perform on the street, but begging when our ancestors do it?"

"That's what they say, but it seems like in the eyes of most people, folk music is indeed a bit tacky?"

"Brother Su Meng is right! Brother Su Meng is invincible!"

"Although I'm a fan of Brother Su Meng, folk music does seem a bit... anyway, I'm not willing to learn it."

"Folk music is tacky? To the person above, since you're a fan of Su Meng, go listen to 'Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix'?"

"I don't know why, but I have a premonition that Su Meng is going to pull out a big move tomorrow..."

In the office of Xinghai Culture.

Duan Duan Jiangping's face turned completely cold, with an aura of dignity that didn't need to be angry.

"Sister Qin, Hua Hua Chenyu is from Tianyu, right?"

"Pass a word to Tianyu!"

"The two have a dispute, let them solve it themselves."

"If Tianyu dares to take action, use internet trolls to stir up trouble, or use underhanded methods..."

"Do they really think my Xinghai Entertainment is a pushover?"

Sister Qin rarely didn't argue with him, but nodded fiercely instead.

"Our Su Meng can only be bullied by us!"

"If Tianyu wants to bully someone... do they really think my twenty years as an agent were for nothing?"

Imperial Music Academy.

Hu Zhengyuan took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, and fell into deep thought.

A moment later, he picked up his phone.

"Xiao Ling, notify the Folk Music Department, adjust tomorrow's classes."

"Leave time to watch Su Meng's livestream."

"I mean the Folk Music Department... the whole department! Everyone!"

"Okay teacher, I'll go arrange it." Bai Bai Bai Xiaoling didn't seem surprised.

"Teacher, do we need to speak up to support Su Meng?"

Hu Zhengyuan shook his head and said slowly.

"No, I have a premonition."

"Tomorrow, Su Meng is going to get serious..." ===== CHAPTER 149 =====

"Old Wang, stop the car!"

"Alright~~~"

Wang Wang Laowu, who was driving, didn't ask and parked the van steadily on the side of the road.

Su Meng jumped out of the car and strolled toward the side of the road.

The others in the car didn't know why, but quickly followed.

On the side of the road was a musical instrument shop, Su Meng pushed the door open and said loudly.

"Boss, I'm here to patronize your business again."

"Dad! My dad~~~~" A burst of wailing suddenly came from the shop.

This shout startled the group.

Looking over, who else could it be but the shop owner wailing?

"Boss, what are you doing?"

"Ah... sorry Master Su, seeing you, I remembered your 'Big Funeral', and I just wanted to cry out of reflex..." ===== CHAPTER 150 =====

The boss was also a bit embarrassed.

This was the second time Su Meng had come to this instrument shop; the first time was when he bought the suona.

Pfft~~ several female stars laughed out loud.

According to what you said, hasn't Su Meng become a jinx?

Su Meng was also a bit numb, I'm a traffic-driven idol that everyone loves, right?

Shaking his head, he stopped dwelling on this issue.

"Boss, do you have an erhu? Get me one."

Erhu?

Many people on site and in the livestream were stunned.

Buying an erhu? You can actually play the erhu?

Amazing, my brother.

The boss was also surprised and subconsciously pointed to a rack.

"Yes, it's right there."

Su Meng walked over, picked up an erhu to look at it, and picked up the bow to play.

"Stop~~~~" Seeing this, the boss's face turned green with fear.

He lunged over and pressed Su Meng's hand tightly.

"Master Su, I beg you, please don't play."

"I'm old, I can't take this kind of stimulation, I can't cry anymore."

"Hahaha..." The few people behind him couldn't hold it anymore and burst into laughter.

They were laughing so hard that tears were almost streaming out.

Seriously, how much psychological trauma did you leave the shop owner with?

Su Meng also stiffened, the smile on his face a bit awkward.

"Boss, I just wanted to test the sound..."

"No need to test!" The boss's face was green.

Last time you bought a suona, you said the same thing, but what was the result?

"This erhu is definitely good stuff, you're an old customer, don't you trust me?"

Su Meng thought about it and didn't insist.

"Alright then, I'll take this erhu, how much?"

"No money! I'll give you the erhu!" The boss blurted out without thinking.

Damn, have I really become a plague god?

Does everyone have to pay to get rid of me?

Su Meng was completely numb.

"Boss, you should take the money, you're making Master Su feel awkward."

"He's a master, he can't take advantage of you, right?"

Xiao Xiao Xiao Yueyue leaned over and said with a smile.

The boss thought about it and said helplessly.

"Alright then, this erhu is 59.9 yuan, pay up if you want it."

"59.9?" Su Meng pointed at the tag, feeling terrible.

"Boss, if I'm not mistaken, the tag says 599, right?"

"You saw it wrong! Oh no, the tag was labeled wrong!" The boss was calm and composed.

But turning his head to see the cashier covering her mouth and giggling, he was furious.

"Wife, how could you label such an important tag wrong?"

"You missed a decimal point?"

"How did you learn math?"

"Two hundred deducted from my pocket money this month!"

Su Meng felt terrible.

Damn, are you the idiot or am I the idiot?

But he didn't say anything, just slapped 60 yuan on the table.

"I'm a master, can I be short of this little money?"

"Here's sixty, no need for change!"

Quack quack quack... It seemed like a few crows flew over the scene.

Where do you get the confidence to be so righteous?

"Boss, I want this violin, the price is 2999, right?"

A voice suddenly sounded.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Hua Hua Chenyu standing in front of a violin, looking at the tag.

This guy wants to buy a violin?

Many people were surprised.

The boss's wife looked at the boss and said hesitantly.

"This... I think I labeled the tag wrong too... it should be missing a decimal point... right?"

The netizens in the livestream were laughing like crazy.

Aren't this pair of clowns a bit too funny?

The boss shook his head with a straight face, looking serious.

"You did label the tag wrong!"

"But it's not missing a decimal point, it's missing two 9s."

"So the price of this violin should be 299,900 yuan!"

Yuan!"

"Wife, how did you label it wrong again? Deduct another 200 yuan from my pocket money this month!"

Pfft~~~~ A group of people almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Boss, are you serious?

A broken violin, and you dare to ask for 300,000?

Why did you give Su Meng a 90% discount when he bought an erhu?

Hua Hua Chenyu buys a violin, and you give him a... 10000% markup?

Deng Deng Deng Ziqi held her stomach and laughed for a long time, unable to hold it anymore.

"Boss, how do you do business? Won't you lose everything?"

Facing her, the boss was all smiles.

"You don't understand, those who play folk music are poor, if you sell it too expensive, they can't afford it."

"Those who play Western music are particularly pretentious, if you sell it cheap, they think you look down on them."

Deng Deng Deng Ziqi suddenly stiffened and couldn't laugh anymore.

I think I can play piano, violin, saxophone, guitar, drums... they all seem to be Western instruments?

Boss, I suspect you're implying something about me!

"Damn, are you slaughtering a pig? I don't want it!"

Hua Hua Chenyu couldn't take it anymore, turned around, and walked out.

Why stay here? To be slaughtered like a pig?

No, wait, when I get angry, I even scold myself?

In the livestream, seeing this scene, netizens were laughing like crazy.

"Hahaha, this pair of clowns is too interesting, they're killing me."

"Su Meng is awesome, a song 'The Big Funeral' scared the boss like this?" ===== CHAPTER 151 =====
