老攻身患绝症[穿书]

Chapter 31

“Really.” Qiu Xing leaned back in his seat, relaxed his body and closed his eyes. “He isn’t old yet his tone is like this… hmph.”

Liu Sha had arrived and was sitting in the reception hall of Yang Xing, looking through magazines. The front desk new recruit was looking at her from time to time. The front desk employee saw Xie Yang come in and her eyes brightened. She rushed to Xie Yang to explain the situation. 

Xie Yang explained after listening. “She isn’t a client, she is the new vice-president. Go and be busy.” Then he went to Liu Sha’s side and smiled. “It’s time to go to the meeting, Chief Liu.”

“There is no hurry to have a meeting. Let’s solve this first.” Liu Sha raised his phone. “President Xie, you seem to be having a bit of trouble.”

Everyone gathered in the meeting room. Xie Yang introduced Liu Sha to Hu Biao and the newly recruited heads of several departments. Then he briefly held a meeting.

After the meeting, Liu Sha and Hu Biao went with Xie Yang to the chairman’s office. 

Hu Biao turned to the so-called ‘objective review’ written by a well-known musician on Weibo and his face was dark.

“It must’ve been an article that Huangtian found someone to write. This person classifies Ji Zehui as a strong singer, exaggerating Ji Zehui’s wide range and treble. Then he classifies you as a traffic singer, saying that your tone is okay but your singing skills aren’t good at all. He used other people’s examples to show that your sound is generally good for a bass performance. Your treble must be sharp and weak and your range is narrow.”

Liu Sha was much calmer than Hu Biao as she analyzed, “Fans can’t help Xie Yang refute this evaluation because Xie Yang hasn’t sung high notes so far. The only place that can be considered as high notes was when he was harmonizing with Tong Jian.”

Hu Biao was angry and put down his phone. He told Xie Yang, “This musician has shaped a fair and objective image and his influence isn’t low. It is easy for the public to be guided by him. He is very cunning. When praising Ji Zehui, he specifically classified Ji Zehui with several old musicians with excellent strength but lower popularity. He uses these old singers to promote Ji Zehui. Meanwhile, he puts you with some traffic singers with bad reputation and strength, trying to bind you to the image of a traffic artist.” 

Xie Yang didn’t understand. “This connotation is easy to be broken. Huangtian’s trick is too stupid.”

“It isn’t that they’re stupid.” Hu Biao’s expression was very ugly. “I heard news that Mo Bin has signed with Huangtian.”

This was bad news.

Xie Yang stated, “It is true that since he can’t go to heaven, he went to hell. Don’t worry about him yet. Do you mean that the reason why Huangtian sent such an article is because of Mo Bin?” 

Hu Biao nodded. “Did you forget? When you joined the group, I asked you to sing a song for Mo Bin. You were nervous and your voice was dry, so your treble performance was very bad. Mo Bin calmed you down and told you not to panic. He said that he would allow you to get used to it before singing it again a few days later. Then all types of things happened and we put it off.”

Xie Yang raised his eyebrows. “So in Mo Bin’s impression, my treble has always been bad?”

“Yes.”

Xie Yang smiled. “Then this is a good thing. It is an excellent face-stepping opportunity. What are you worried about?” 

Hu Biao didn’t look so good. “Weren’t you the one who said that if Mo Bin signs to Huangtian, they will definitely step on you? Of course I’m worried! Now he has joined Huangtian and there was such an article. God knows what he will release later based on his knowledge of IUD!”

“I’m not afraid. He knows IUD and you know him. Everyone is holding each other hostage. This matter is a foregone conclusion. We will adopt measures appropriate to the actual situation. Let’s speak with strength.”

Soon, the opportunity for Xie Yang to speak with strength came.

In the evening on the weekend, Ji Zehui participated in a singing competition variety show, Who is the King of Songs? In the interview after the show, the reporter asked Ji Zehui who he wanted to invite as the guest singer in the next issue. Ji Zehui smiled very gently and said, “I recently saw the performance video of a newcomer on Weibo and found it amazing. It has been a long time since the music scene has seen such a bright newcomer. If I can, I would like to invite him to be my guest.” 

The moment the program aired, public opinion was hot and the reactions were mixed.

Some of the silly and naive people who just became fans of Xie Yang were excited and ran to Ji Zehui’s Weibo to thank Ji Zehui for his appreciation and affirmation. They thanked him for his willingness to give Xie Yang this opportunity.

Some smart fans remembered Broken Cocoon being suppressed by IUD and realized that something was wrong.

The passersby were looking forward to seeing more scenes of Xie Yang and getting to know this newcomer more fully. 

Ji Zehui’s fans were a bit dissatisfied. They felt that with Ji Zehui, asking a newcomer to be a guest singer was entirely to promote the newcomer. It was taking the initiative to give blood to the newcomer to suck and they lamented that Ji Zehui was too nice.
