When the mirror ends

"Cricket, I won't talk about the topic of dreams and reality." Peng Zefeng stopped the car slowly, with 16 seconds left before the red light, he said: "As long as you can be responsible for your own choices, then whatever you choose to go on is right." gone."

Feeling that his own words were too chicken soup, and he was a bit suspected of coaxing children, Peng Zefeng thought for a while and said: "There is nothing wrong with continuing to study, and there is nothing wrong with continuing your band. If you choose one of the two, choose the one you can control and are willing to do." good."

Hmm...why do I feel more convoluted.

Peng Zefeng was not good at comforting or encouraging people in situations like this that did not involve psychological problems, so he gave up quickly.Just when the green light came on, I stepped on the accelerator and drove.

"Thank you Brother Zefeng." Deng Qu lowered his head, "I know."

The park is not far from home, but they are not home yet.The reason is that just now Peng Zefeng took a long detour to give Deng Qu enough time to calm down, and now he is still more than ten kilometers away from home.

Let's talk in the remaining ten minutes, it seems that the topic has ended, so don't talk, it doesn't feel right.

"Hmm... Cricket, when and where is your match?" Peng Zefeng hesitated for a while, and finally found a topic that wasn't so obtrusive.

I just don't know if the little boy will get emotional again because it was given by his family.

"One and a half months later, City R." Deng Qu rubbed the registration form with his thumb, as if it was some kind of rare treasure.

Seeing Deng Qu's actions, Peng Zefeng knew that he didn't need to say any more, the kid was very happy.

……

In the past one and a half months, Peng Zefeng has been busy.In addition to still running in various regions, Deng Qu also invited many teachers to make up for some "regular ways".

Originally, Peng Zefeng wanted to find a relationship, and it didn't mean to make an appointment. He just wanted to choose Deng Qu at his discretion when the two were of similar level.But in the end, he still didn't do it. Doing so made him feel sorry for the person who had the opportunity, and also insulted Deng Qu's efforts.

However, Peng Zefeng did not condemn his own thoughts, after all, he is a hot guy, and it is normal to have such thoughts of wanting to take shortcuts.

But the boy is different, the boy is clean.Wherever you go by yourself, you should be willing.

But this does not prevent him from hiring a make-up teacher for him.

Fortunately, the children also feel that they have some shortcomings, so they can study seriously and humbly.Peng Zefeng felt very relieved.

Except for Yu Feng who laughed at him for becoming more and more like a manager, everything else was fine.

When the time came to the audition day, Deng Qu refused Peng Zefeng's pick-up.It was said that the audition time was too long, so it was hard to be sure, fearing that Peng Zefeng would waste too much time and wanted to pass by himself, so they just waited for the result.

When Deng Qu said this, he really thought "I'm fine, you guys go to work, don't worry", but Peng Zefeng always felt that something was almost wrong if he didn't send people there.And this situation is inexplicably familiar.

Yu Feng patted Peng Zefeng on the shoulder, sighed and said, "Didn't you also refuse your parents to wait outside the examination room? Now that Feng Shui is changing, you can follow me to work!"

After finishing speaking, Yu Feng handed Deng Qu a bottle of mineral water and some biscuits, "You work hard."

Deng Qu nodded, "Then I'll go out and wait for the bus. Brother Yu Feng and Brother Ze Feng are waiting for my good news!"

Until Deng Qupao disappeared, Peng Zefeng still had worry in his eyes, and his eyes seemed to fall on the children who were walking towards the bus stop.

Yu Feng only had a six-character evaluation of his friend's performance: It really broke my heart.

He didn't pay that much attention to the children he picked up... Sighing silently, Yu Feng pushed them out.

There were many people at the audition site, and Deng Qu's number was 83.

Not too late, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He found a place to sit quietly, listening to his favorite songs with headphones on.

Not arrogant or rash, immersed in the world of music.

Finally came his number.

His performance was affirmed by the three judges. Although he did not have a full score, three nines were enough for him to advance to the next round.It's only noon, but he can start preparing for the preliminary round in a week's time!

Deng Qu still didn't let Peng Zefeng send it in the preliminary round, because he only advanced to the top 32 in the preliminary round, and his goal was the top eight, that is, the third round is the best he wants to show himself.

At that time, let them come and witness his success or failure.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Deng Qudu has passed the rematch and entered the quarter-finals.

Peng Zefeng was sitting off the stage, watching the staff busy on and off the stage, adjusting the lighting and musical instruments, and he was a little nervous.He clicked his tongue, and then said to Yu Feng: "Tell me, will the crickets be nervous in the background?"

"I don't know if he is nervous or not, but you are nervous." Yu Feng smiled and said, "How about I lend you my hand, sir, to pass on some stable strength to you?"

Peng Zefeng: ...

The game is about to start, and Deng Qu is the third player.

Watching the game live is much more satisfying than imagined. The lighting really has a bonus effect, and the on-site equipment is also quite good, which can maximize the shock of the human voice without distortion.

The first two people are like this. In Peng Zefeng's feeling, the effect bonus given by the stage is very intuitive.

Finally came Deng Qu's performance.

The 16 into 8 competition will be recorded and then edited and broadcast. The judges will also guide the players to say a few words before the singing begins.

Judge: "It seems that the teenagers like the atmosphere of the band very much, but why are you alone on the 3rd?"

Deng Qu: "...I will find a companion."

Judge: "Is that so, did you walk here alone before?"

Deng Qu: "I have a guitar."

Judges: "Hahaha, what an interesting boy, please do your best."

Deng Qu: "I will."

Compared with the first two players, Deng Qu can be said to be clumsy.He has never been on stage, doesn't know how to find a camera, doesn't know how to please people, and doesn't want to pick up words. He only knows that he will try his best to perform and sing every song well.

Yu Feng in the audience couldn't help complaining, "Why do these judges talk so much, don't you see that our crickets don't want to talk to them? What should I do if I forget the words properly?"

Peng Zefeng, who was still a little upset at first, turned around when he heard Yu Feng's complaints, and said with a smile: "I trust him, he won't be affected."

Indeed, as Peng Zefeng said, Deng Qu was completely free from outside influences when he sang.

Moreover, Deng Qu's light does not need to shine through the stage equipment, he shines with the stage.The lyrics are very youthful, and the singing is particularly explosive. At the same time, two years of training have given his voice a special appeal.

The stage shines because of him!

Suddenly, an incompatible voice came out, and Deng Qu was also taken aback.

His guitar string broke.

After being dazed for a few seconds, Deng Qu gave up and continued playing the guitar, held the microphone and cut into the rhythm, and continued to sing. His singing was better than ever before, with tension.

After singing, the audience stood up and applauded.

Deng Qu bowed and quickly left the stage.

After that, he sat in the background without saying a word, and he didn't get up until all the contestants came to the stage and waited for the judges to announce the results.

The expression on his face was calm, without sadness, joy, or expectation.

He knows he has failed.

On the stage, Deng Qu, who does not show his emotions, is different from other contestants, and also different from the feeling he gave when he first appeared on the stage and began to perform. He seems to have grown a lot suddenly.

His comprehensive score ranked 9th, and he missed the promotion qualification by two points.

He took a step forward and bowed in thanks, then stepped back to join the others.He heard someone crying, and saw someone couldn't hold back their joy, and was impatient to end up looking for his friends or family members, but Deng Qu felt that no emotion was suitable for him.

This result is not bad, especially when he made mistakes in singing, but should he be happy?No, it's the same if you don't get the top 8.But it shouldn't be sad to say that he enjoyed being on stage very much, and he also gave his best in this performance.

It's just that he accepted the registration form given by his family, and if he didn't get the corresponding ranking, he should abide by the agreement and go home.

If he had known this time would be so bad, he would have asked Brother Ze Feng and Brother Yu Feng to come over in the last match. Last time he was No.1.

After the show ended, Deng Qu found the two people waiting for him at the entrance.

Peng Zefeng said, "Let's go buy new guitar strings."

Yu Feng said, "Then have a big meal."

He threw himself on the two of them, "I'm sorry."

Peng Zefeng rubbed his hair, "What are you talking about, how can we not know that you have tried your best? You are only 17, and there are still many possibilities in the future."

"In our opinion, you are the best one in the audience today." Yu Feng felt that the child's acting like a baby was also quite cute.

"But, I'm going back." Deng Quweng replied angrily.

Peng Zefeng now understood that the children were reluctant to part with them.

He smoothed Deng Qu's messy hair and asked, "Cricket, will you give up the band when you go back?"

"No." When Deng Qu took the application form, he also thought about the situation of failure, but he found that the message delivered by his mother did not mention asking him to give up, but he needed to take care of his studies at the same time.

He understands her, and if she really wants to force him, she will not leave any language gaps, nor will she set the low standard of "top 8".

"That's it." Peng Zefeng patted the young man's thin back, "As long as you don't give up, it's easy for us to meet."

We will know your situation through various channels, and you can also convey your mood and recent situation to us through your performance.

"Cricket, don't forget my brothers when you go back... The tutor you hired for you will teach you music theory knowledge and skills. In short, just work hard and study hard." Yu Feng didn't want to say anything sensational, and the child cried after teasing , He will feel distressed when he cries, and it is good to say goodbye like this now.

"...Okay." Deng Qu's tears were forced back by the second half of Yu Feng's sentence, but he was very lucky: he could not cry in front of them.
