This star just wants to learn.

Chapter 909 Genius is just his threshold
"Thank you for what you did..."

Seeing that Bailey had also walked the red carpet, Pu Tong still smiled and thanked him and expressed his gratitude. Jokes aside, it was only right for him to say thank you because others cared about him.

But in the situation just now, this guy's good intentions really dug a big hole for him.

"I should be the one thanking you."

Bailey smiled and patted his shoulder. "Thank you for that. I feel much better now... I'll just run with you. I believe my future is bright!"

"Do you understand?"

What he said was clearly the content of the ancient poem just now. Pu Tong really didn't expect that this Italian guy actually understood this.

"I have studied it... but I can only understand it by listening, not by speaking it myself." Bailey scratched his head and learned two sentences by himself. It sounded very strange. It can only be said that it was consistent with Pu Tong's impression of foreigners.

The two chatted along the way and slowly took their seats. Because they were both nominated for the highest award, Pu Tong and Bailey were in the front row and their seats were very close to each other.

Just as the Italian man was telling him a joke across the empty seat, a burly figure suddenly appeared between the two of them. Pu Tong was stunned and his eyes moved upwards silently.

What came into view was a tall figure with dark skin. He had a strong aura, like a wild lion, showing his confidence and dominance. His eyes were also on Pu Tong, and he stared at him with interest as soon as he sat down.

Pu Tong knew this person...

Although he has never met him in person, Pu Tong has seen his photo. Charlie Brown is now the number one in the international music scene.

"Oi, Charlie, you're here too."

Bailey immediately stood up and greeted the black man. It seemed that the two had a good relationship and must be old acquaintances.

"Of course I have to come, otherwise, how can I watch the birth of a new king?"

His eyes were still wandering around Pu Tong, as if he was full of curiosity about his opponent. He saw something in this kid that he didn't have when he was young...

"No way, I don't know for sure whether I can win the award!"

Bailey waved his hand, and even showed a bit of humble shyness on his face. Obviously, he misunderstood what Charlie said to Pu Tong as what he said to himself. After all, he didn't know that the two knew each other.

Charlie was stunned for a moment, then frowned as if he had suddenly realized something. With his understanding of Bailey, it was not difficult for him to guess his current state. This guy probably didn't know Pu Tong's current influence at all.

However, he did not explain too much, thinking that it would not take long before his naive friend would realize how terrifying this guy was.

"Hello, I'm Pu Tong."

Seeing that the situation was a bit awkward, Pu Tong took the initiative to extend his hand and greet Charlie. He still admired this man very much. When he studied Charlie's works, a great soul emerged in his mind.

"I'm Charlie Brown. It's our first meeting. Please take care of me."

Charlie smiled and shook hands with Pu Tong. This was indeed their first meeting, and surprisingly, as rivals, there was no hostility in their eyes.

The two smiled at each other, leaving Bailey confused. Is this the legendary love at first sight?
"Gaya and Feili are here, in the back row. Erangel has a performance today and can't turn it down. As for Hedy..." Charlie paused, "It's hard to find anything that can interest her. I guess she won't come."

Pu Tong nodded when he heard this. His five opponents valued him very much. They must have come here to see him. While the two were talking, a greeting mixed with curses came from not far behind. Pu Tong and Charlie looked back and saw a man with big tattoos and earrings greeting them.

Of course, his way of greeting was quite impolite, because he raised his middle finger...

This is Jaya, a singer who looks like a gangster from head to toe, but is famous for his soulful songs. His musical field and personal style are quite contrasting.

"He is just like that. There is no malice in that gesture." Charlie sighed, "The woman with burgundy hair next to him is Feili..."

Pu Tong then noticed the charming and beautiful woman next to the non-mainstream young man. If he hadn't known that she was very old, he would have been deceived by his eyes.

"It's okay. How bad can a man who can write such a passionate work be?" He smiled and added, "I always feel that he deliberately dresses like this just to hide his inner self."

Of course, Pu Tong was just guessing and there was no basis for this.

Charlie was stunned when he heard this. He had known Jaya for such a long time, so he naturally knew that his friend was indeed like that. But it was a bit scary that Pu Tong could hear his inner world just by listening to his songs.

The award ceremony started very quickly, and Pu Tong then remembered to ask Charlie if he was also nominated for an award.

"No, I haven't released any new works in a year, so how can I be nominated? I can sit so far in the front just because the organizer gave me face."

Charlie's words are very subtle. Even though he hasn't appeared in public for a year, he is still the number one in the music scene today.

Is this a pre-war demonstration?
"No wonder... If you had released a new work at that time, I wouldn't have been able to stay on the charts for more than 20 days."

To Bailey who was standing by, Putong's words seemed quite comprehensive, as they both confirmed Charlie's dominance in the music scene and explained his own achievements.

He also had a new understanding of Pu Tong. This kid should be a rising star this year.

With this thought in mind, he patted Charlie on the shoulder and whispered, "A talented young man like Pu Tong is probably going to win this year's Best Newcomer Award."

Bailey is actually quite gossipy. One can only say that he is ignorant of worldly affairs in order to concentrate on art, which is a bit unreasonable.

"Genius is just his threshold..." Charlie sighed, "You'll know later."

Before Bailey could react, the host on the stage had already begun announcing the first award.

Best Songwriter Award is used to recognize musicians who have made outstanding contributions to music creation in the past year.

There are four nominees, two of whom are English singers, one is a Russian female singer, and the remaining one is Pu Tong.

The big screen on the stage immediately gave a shot to each of the four people in the audience. Compared to the three musicians who looked nervous, Pu Tong was in a relaxed state, as if he was not the one nominated at all.

"The winner of the Best Music Composer of the Year is Pu Tong. Both "Because of You" and "Runaway" have amazing artistry. He deserves this award."

Bailey looked at Pu Tong who monopolized the screen, and suddenly understood what Charlie meant.

Genius is just his threshold!
