Return to the Road of God

The backstage studio was filled with shouting and urging from the staff, and everyone was running around like a war.

"Jiang Bing—put on this suit and touch up makeup immediately, time is running out!"

"Remember, in the Q&A session later, the judges will ask the following questions: first, why do you want to come to this stage; second, what is your dream; What do you want to tell everyone... The focus of all the answers to the questions cannot be separated from music, this is your main feature, you like to sing, and you want to realize your music dream! Do you understand?"

The person who spoke was the manager who dug Jiang Bing to participate in this show, and also his Bole, a certain musician from the former Ningcheng Radio Station, Deng Chengli.

Jiang Bing gave a absent-minded "hmm" and didn't know if he listened.

"Also, you must never say what you said to the female judge on the stage just now! Whatever the judge asks, you have to answer respectfully. You can even make up some lies."

Jiang Bing looked up at him: "It doesn't make any difference, anyway, I'm not the final champion."

Deng Chengli sighed, and said: "The championship can't be changed by default, but the meaning of your coming to this stage does not have to be number one. As long as people know you and make you famous, half the battle is already achieved. After all, you are still so young. ! Moreover, you have to let the major entertainment companies feel that you are a very obedient singer, so that you will have a better chance of signing a contract!"

Jiang Bing was thoughtful, finally nodded and said, "I understand, I want others to think that I can make money."

"..." Deng Chengli really didn't know what to say with such a direct comprehension.I remembered that when I saw Jiang Bing for the first time that year, the kid was still a stunned young man, he only knew how to sing hard, and there was a silly drive all over his body, and he didn't understand anything else.After instilling in him a bunch of popular theories such as "seize the opportunity", "exposure effect", "media hype", etc., this kid finally got a little enlightened.

Deng Chengli admits that Jiang Bing is actually very smart. Although he doesn't like to study and dropped out of school, his intuition like a wild animal and his natural arrogance can always give people a feeling of "dragon and phoenix among people". .

Deng Chengli patted him on the shoulder: "Boy, don't care too much about the result, you are already halfway there, you know?"

"Hmm." Although he answered, Jiang Bing remained expressionless, showing no emotion.

Deng Chengli: "There is still one minute, you should prepare well."

Jiang Bing sat paralyzed on the sofa chair, inhaling, exhaling, inhaling, exhaling rhythmically...

Habitually taking out the mobile phone from his trouser pocket, looking at the familiar number, Jiang Bing knew that after dialing it, it must be the familiar English sentence again—the number you dialed cannot be connected temporarily.

Ever since he learned to sing, he has rarely had free time. Every day is very busy and fulfilling. In the past, the happiest time was in the early morning every day. After a busy day, he dragged his tired body to the phone booth to call Ye Yufan .

"...There are 30 seconds left, get ready!"

But gradually, his time became less and less. After participating in this program, he had a closed training session with other singers. Since then, he has not called Ye Yufan for three months.

He misses him, he never hides his miss, he misses him to death.

But he can no longer be like a child who is dissatisfied with desires, pestering his lover for sweet words every day - after the show started, he suddenly became popular, and he has an order of magnitude more fans than when he was in Ningcheng. Now, he keeps saying sweet words Time is running out.

"Ten seconds—gather!" The staff began the countdown, "Nine, eight, seven..."

Jiang Bing stood up and walked towards the door leading to the stage step by step.

That door was opening for him, and he never thought that he would be able to get to this point.

But when he embarked on this path, he knew that many things would be beyond his control... This world is not a fairy tale, he needs a future, and more importantly, money, and he needs to have enough strength to hold the one he loves firmly In my hand, in my arms, so that he won't get hurt at all.

I am Jiang Bing, I am not afraid of failure, I will always go forward...Ye Yufan, do you see?

……

"Friends from the audience, welcome back to the 'Rising Stars' born to shine. After the relaxing advertisement, we are welcoming the most distinctive question-and-answer session of this final. Here, you can hear the voices of the three contestants Let’s find out what these three stars of tomorrow want to say to everyone, just one step away from being the champion!”

……

"Hello, Jiang Bing," the female judge met Jiang Bing again and asked, "Can you tell us about your dream?"

Jiang Bing returned a handsome smile and asked, "Don't ask me what's on my mind anymore?"

Audience: "Hahahaha..."

Female judge: "..."

Deng Chengli: "..." Jiang Bing is the only one who dares to moles a female judge on stage!

"Hehe..." Jiang Bing turned his gaze to the audience, and said something that stunned the audience, "I'm sorry, I don't have a dream."

After a strange silence, some people applauded boisterously, but most people were still surprised.

Deng Chengli's face in the audience turned dark: What are you doing, let this kid say it's for his music dream!

Jiang Bing continued: "I had a dream when I was a child, it was very vulgar, and that was to become a rich man—you understand me."

The audience laughed...

Jiang Bing: "Once you have money, there is nothing you can't buy or do. I thought so at the time. When I was in junior high school, I had more money than any other student. It wasn't given to me by my parents. There is a lot of pocket money, but, I am the local snake in the area near our school, extorting protection fees, doing all kinds of evil... I think I was cool at that time, just like when I was singing."

Everyone laughed again... Several judges laughed and shook their heads, as if helpless.

Jiang Bing: "But that was just my past. During my time, in my life, there was a person... This person changed me completely. He let me know how muddled and aimless I used to be. , Useless. He taught me to do one thing seriously, and he let me know what it means to truly live..."

Everyone listened with bated breath.

Jiang Bing: "What is a dream? A dream is nothing more than a longing for a state. It makes people more purposeful in their actions, but people are changeable. For example, my sister used to like painting and wanted to be I am an artist, but after seeing me start singing, she felt that being a singer is not bad, so what is her dream? Maybe she will be the same as me, thinking that money is the most important thing. Sing and paint if you want to.”

Everyone: "Hahahaha..."

Jiang Bing: "So, I have no dreams, I just want to do one thing seriously, and this thing is singing."

Applause resounded throughout the studio, and even the judges who shook their heads just now had expressions of approval on their faces.

A male judge said: "To be honest, you are only 20 years old. It is really rare to have such a feeling... But I don't know if you are really as desireless as you say."

The female judge took the microphone and asked: "Jiang Bing, we admit that you have a very individual character, so, can you tell me your opinion on singing?"

Jiang Bing said: "First of all, compared to the bastard things I used to do, singing is at least a serious thing. But in my dad's opinion, apart from studying hard, everything else is not doing a proper job. I dropped out of school to sing, and he has to Zhihou once beat me to death, but I survived, so I am standing here today."

Everyone: "Hahaha..."

The female judge smiled and stood up, and asked loudly, "Excuse me, is Jiang Bing's father present?"

The camera gave a close-up shot of a couple who looked like honest people.

Female judge: "Excuse me, have you changed your view of your son now?"

Jiang Bing's father nodded with tears in his eyes, and then gave a thumbs up.

The female judge turned to Jiang Bing and said with a smile: "You can rest assured now, let's continue."

Jiang Bing: "Secondly, this is what I like to do. It's not because I'm handsome when I sing, but because singing makes me very different. I appreciate myself who is working hard to do this well, yes Singing made me, let me become 'Jiang Bing'."

The female judge smiled and nodded in approval.

Jiang Bing: "In the end, this is something that allows me to support myself. This is very important. Now, I can not only support myself, but also support my family...Of course, if you make me a champion, I think Maybe one day, I can save the world."

The audience: "Hahahaha...!"

The female judge asked with a smile: "Then, what if you don't become the champion tonight? To be honest, the road in the entertainment industry is not easy."

Jiang Bingdao: "The person who changed me encountered a huge setback when he was 16 years old. He fell from the peak to the valley, but he didn't back down. Instead, he stood up and went up another slope. Climbing, at that time, in my opinion, he was more dazzling than before. His will and bravery stimulated me and made me wake up. So, in fact, I am very eager to encounter setbacks. Although it is abnormal to say so, I Thinking that failure should make me more complete than I am now."

The audience burst into warm applause, and even Deng Chengli, who was speechless at first, was moved by Jiang Bing when he heard it now.

...At this moment, Ye's father and Ye's mother, who were sitting in front of the TV, were filled with emotion. They knew who the person Jiang Bing mentioned was.

Back then, his son dropped out of school due to illness. This matter has always been a pain in the hearts of the couple, but he can still bring positive strength to others... In fact, there is no absolute way in life, live, and then do it seriously For one thing, that's enough.

Tears welled up in Mother Ye's eyes. When the host announced that the SMS voting channel would be closed in 15 minutes, the couple picked up their phones without hesitation.

"Quickly, call your colleagues and ask them to vote for Xiao Jiang!"

"And your students!"

"I'll leave a message for them in the QQ group! I don't know if it's too late..."

"As many votes as you can get..."

I don't know when was the last time I was so moved. The couple, who are nearly [-] years old, excitedly called their relatives and friends to canvass votes, their hearts beating wildly like they were when they were young.

……

Backstage, Deng Chengli hugged Jiang Bing who came off the stage tightly, and patted him on the back: "Although I didn't read it according to the manuscript I gave you, I still want to praise you, you are well said!"

Jiang Bing: "..."

Deng Chengli handed Jiang Bing a cup of coffee: "Wait patiently for the result!"

At this moment, Jiang Bing's cell phone vibrated. He guessed that the call might be from Jiang Xue who was watching the show offstage, so he took it out without haste.

However, when he saw the caller ID clearly, the hand holding the coffee cup trembled, and a heart jumped into his throat instantly!

——It's Ye Yufan!

Jiang Bing hastily pressed the answer button and said "Hello" impatiently.

"Hello," a strange voice came from the other end of the phone, "Excuse me, are you Jiang Bing?"

"Yes..." Jiang Bing said alertly, "Who are you? Guan Hongze again?"

The man paused, and said, "No, my surname is Ge, and I'm Ye Yufan's...uncle."

Jiang Bing: "Where's Ye Yufan?"

The man spoke urgently: "Ye Yufan has been in a coma for more than ten days, and now he is in the hospital. The doctor said that if he continues to sleep, he may enter an irreversible coma...and become a vegetative state!"
