Chapter 291: Chapter 273 Difficult to Reconcile_1
“After the company set next year’s task, each floor of the composition department chose their most promising singers…”
“But I heard that the singers selected by the ninth floor were Sun Yaohuo and Jiang Kui?”
“It’s really unexpected that Admirable Fish made that decision. The others try to promote the singers who have the best chance of becoming top-tier, while he chose who they didn’t even take into account.”
“What baffles me is that Admirable Fish has worked with Zhao Ying Ge before, but why did he end up choosing Jiang Kui?”
“Zhao Ying Ge often talks about Teacher Admirable Fish, and it’s clear she wished to be chosen by the ninth floor. However, they didn’t select her. Instead, she received invitations from several other floors, she must be very upset.”
“Jiang Kui is no match for the hype around Sun Yaohuo. Promoting Sun Yaohuo with his background… that’s really tough…”
“As expected from Maestro Junior. He’s so willful in choosing people.”
“Hehe, isn’t Sun Yaohuo just catching the favor of Admirable Fish? I heard that Sun passed on his ‘Ways of Flattery’ to the company’s newcomers, it’s embarrassing.”
“Haha, are you jealous that Admirable Fish chose Sun Yaohuo and not you?”
“So what if I am? Not only me, I bet eighty percent of the male singers in the company are jealous of Sun Yaohuo! And aren’t you jealous? Your leverage among female singers is even better than Jiang Kui’s.”
“I’m just envious. After all, Jiang Kui started to build a relationship with Maestro Junior early on. Admirable Fish was new to songwriting at that time. If I could go back to two years ago, I would definitely seize the opportunity with him!”
“…”
Soon, the list of singers to be highlighted for training by each floor was announced.
As each floor announced their final list of selected singers, half of the company was discussing the results.
As the selection of the ninth floor was quite unexpected, this floor sparked the most discussion.
“Why didn’t Teacher Admirable Fish choose me?”
In one of the company’s break rooms, Zhao Ying Ge looked a bit disappointed.
She had already made up her mind, that she would go to Admirable Fish as soon as the ninth floor spoke.
She even wanted to actively seek him out, but then realized that she wasn’t the same as before.
It would be somewhat embarrassing to do so.
She figured that the ninth floor would certainly choose her even without her asking. Almost everyone knew she had the best chance of becoming a top-tier singer in the company!
And yet…
All the other floors sent her invitations, except for the ninth floor, which didn’t bother with Zhao Ying Ge!
“Does Admirable Fish not like me? Or did I offend him before…?”
Facing this outcome, honestly, Zhao Ying Ge felt somewhat wronged.
While feeling wronged, she was also a bit angry because she somehow felt that Admirable Fish was looking down on her, and it didn’t feel good.
So, she eventually chose the tenth floor, which was closest to the ninth floor.
It was more of a spiteful choice!
The tenth floor wasn’t the strongest, but it was the closest to the ninth floor!
Zhao Ying Ge wanted to prove her ability in the place closest to Admirable Fish!
To put it precisely, she wanted to prove to Admirable Fish himself under his watch, that not choosing her was a mistake!
A nearby assistant comforted her, “It doesn’t matter after all, going by all the floors in the composition department, they all chose you. This already proves that your progress over the past two years has been very successful.”
“…”
Zhao Ying Ge remained silent. Her feelings were mixed. Maybe it was reversion psychology; the more Admirable Fish didn’t choose her, the more she cared about it.
Several days later.
Starlight Entertainment.
As the singers chosen for grooming by the ninth floor, Sun Yaohuo and Jiang Kui quite literally arrived simultaneously at the composition department to start working.
“Feels like I got in through the back door.”
Jiang Kui muttered sullenly.
She of course was aware of the company’s gossip. After all, she was chosen by the ninth floor, stealing Zhao Ying Ge’s spot. In everyone’s eyes, she fell short of Zhao Ying Ge in every way.
Opposite Jiang Kui.
Sun Yaohuo had a broad smile on his face, seemingly unscathed by the company’s rumors, his spirit appearing strong and full.
“Doesn’t it make you mad?”
Jiang Kui looked at Sun Yaohuo with confusion, “Don’t you know the company’s been talking about us? Those words aren’t too pleasant.”
“I know, so what?”
Sun Yaohuo said with a grin, “Regarding priority, neither you nor I are the best candidates. Being chosen by the ninth floor is purely because of Maestro Junior’s nostalgia. Who cares if people badmouth us? If I were them, I would do the same. Why should I, Sun Yaohuo, be the one promoted? It’s clear the whole composition department is backing us. Who couldn’t make it if they were chosen? Don’t you think so?”
I’d make it if I were chosen too.
That was the thought of many people when they found out that Sun Yaohuo had been selected.
When word got out that each major composition department was choosing two singers for intensive training, it sent shockwaves through the singers’ department. Everyone was riled up by the news, some even volunteered…
Who wouldn’t want to be chosen by the composition department?
This is an opportunity for prime cultivation!
Being chosen was equivalent to practically having one foot in the door of an A-list career!
To the singers, the composition department is a tempting treasure box!
Upon hearing the news, Sun Yaohuo naturally felt that he wouldn’t be chosen, despite his close relationship with his junior. Thus, he wasn’t holding his breath in anticipation.
In his mind, it was enough to be treated with a little favor by his junior on good days.
Because he was cognizant of his situation.
He’s a singer whose fame hasn’t caught up with his talent, like a hopeless case for improvement.
But to his surprise, his junior chose him despite the criticism from the company!
You must know…
How many male singers with better basic skills than his were dying to get on the list!
Is there even anything left to say?
Rather than seething in anger at the singers who belittled him, it would be better to make some achievements to live up to his junior’s high regard for him!
Jiang Kui was taken aback.
She suddenly realized that her own status was not as good as Sun Yaohuo’s.
True, what was there to deny? Wasn’t it through her relationship with Teacher Admirable Fish that she managed to be chosen by the ninth floor?
Otherwise, Teacher Admirable Fish could have completely chosen Zhao Ying Ge.
After all, many people in the company know that Zhao Ying Ge is a loyal fan of Teacher Admirable Fish who would love nothing more than to go to the ninth floor!
So, she might as well openly admit it.
At such times, all explanations are powerless.
There’s only one way to counterattack, and that’s to achieve success, shut everyone up, and show them that Teacher Admirable Fish made the right choice!
Teacher Admirable Fish’s vision is the best!
Having considered this, Jiang Kui felt relieved and even thought that Sun Yaohuo was quite warm.
As though infected by Sun Yaohuo, the resentment and anger in her heart were replaced by a strong will to fight. She must never let Teacher Admirable Fish regret his choice!
“The representative is looking for you two.”
Gu Dong came out to inform them.
The two nervously entered Lin Yuan’s office.
At that time, Lin Yuan was thinking about how to cultivate Sun Yaohuo and Jiang Kui in the coming year. When he saw the two coming, he spoke:
“Please, have a seat.”
They immediately sat down.
Gu Dong prepared tea for them.
Lin Yuan’s office is now never short of good tea.
Because those who know the preferences of this representative, know what he likes.
“Great tea!”
The freshly brewed tea was still a bit hot, but Sun Yaohuo took a sip right away, praising it, “I guess I should switch to tea. Coffee can’t compare to this. Junior has a good taste.”
“Isn’t it?”
Lin Yuan was rather pleased, thinking that his senior was quite similar to him:
“Take it slow, senior. The tea is a bit hot. If you like it, I’ll send you two… I mean, one box.”
Jiang Kui: “…”
And she thought Sun Yaohuo was warm earlier.
In comparison to warm, kisser is a more suitable description for the person in front of her.
Who would have thought that after such a long time, Sun Yaohuo had advanced even more in kissing up? She was still contemplating how to curry favor, and he had already quickly found the breakthrough.
So desperate!
The tea was freshly brewed.
Wasn’t he afraid of burning his mouth?
