Lian Zong: I work hard but let others get ahead of me

Chapter 1: I am lucky to have a man with a lower head

"Ding!"

“【华国工商银行】您尾号为10086的储蓄卡在2023年7月25日收到华夏币：5，000.00。账户余额：7，250.61。”

Xu Zhe'an was just about to take a look at the remittance news, when the WeChat message from his mother popped up.

"This month's money has been transferred to you. This time it is a little more. In addition to paying off debts, remember to eat more good food."

"Mom has enough money here, don't worry."

Xu Zhe'an's movements froze when he saw the words 'enough money' sent by his mother.

My eyes seem a little sore.

He clicked on WeChat and replied.

"Mom, the company introduced me to a variety show, and the pay was very high. My debts will be paid off next month."

After sending the money back, Xu Zhe'an suddenly remembered that his father called once and said that his mother had a stomachache and went to the hospital for a checkup. She had a stomach bug.

The reason is that my mother, who is a dishwasher, often packs up other people’s leftovers in the kitchen.

The so-called money is enough, just like this little bit of savings.

The reason for saving money is to help yourself pay off debt.

Xu Zhe'an put down his phone, stopped thinking, and began to listen carefully to the words of his manager Sun Wenyun in front of him.

"You're lucky. The guest requirements for this show "Sakura of Melody" are a bit special, which just suits you."

"After so many years, it's time to let go of your arrogance and stupidity."

"This show has high traffic and many celebrities. Although the script given is for a low-income man, it is also a black and red show with traffic."

"The most important thing is that as long as you can keep the male character and finish filming the show, you can have 100 million!"

"Enough to help you pay off your debt."

Sun Wenyun looked at Xu Zhe'an in front of him and continued: "Read the contract carefully and sign it if you have no problem."

Xu Zhe'an signed directly without any further hesitation.

His agent has been very good to him over the years, and Xu Zhe'an is very grateful that he found this life-saving straw for him, so naturally he doesn't need to hesitate any more.

More importantly, even if there is a pit in front of him, he must jump forward.

He had had enough of working part-time every day, taking part-time jobs to pay off debts, and being a burden to his family.

It doesn’t matter what the hell the script is, just pay it.

After signing the contract, Xu Zhe'an watched the agent walk out of the rental house, and then fell asleep on the bed.

This night, Xu Zhe'an had a dream.

In the dream, he paid off his debts and came to a wonderful world.

That world is very similar to the world Xu Zhe'an lives in, but completely different.

He seemed to have spent his entire life in that world.

So a lot of huge and difficult memories poured into Xu Zhe'an's mind.

A brilliant civilization called Earth slowly unfolded in Xu Zhe'an's mind.

On that so-called Earth, there is a history and culture similar to that of Blue Star, as well as a completely different pop culture since the twentieth century.

It is a soil structure that is very suitable for cultivating Wenzhaogong.

It's just that this memory is too messy, and Xu Zhe'an needs some time to slowly absorb and sort it out.

The next day, Xu Zhe'an woke up.

After getting up and washing up, he came to his usual table and saw the script left by his agent yesterday.

Yesterday I was only busy signing, but I didn't look at it carefully.

Xu Zhe'an sat down and began to re-examine this so-called variety show script.

So, he finally knew that the money was not easy to get.

The show he is going to participate in is called "Sakura Color of Melody". It is a love variety show wrapped in music.

The rules are simple, there are eight guests in total, four female musicians and four male musicians.

A man and a woman formed a team, a total of four groups. It was euphemistically called music exchange. In fact, it was four days of dating. Then on the fifth day, each of them composed a song for the other party based on their interactions in the previous four days and their impressions of the other party. Song.

It can be based on the characteristics of the other person's voice or the characteristics of the other person's personality.

Five days later, the next partner was replaced, and each person had to take turns partnering with four people of the opposite sex.

The whole process takes about 20 days in total. The rules may be adjusted during the shooting process. This will be added after the shooting starts.

Generally speaking, it is a love variety show in the name of music communication, but in fact it films male and female guests falling in love and interacting with each other.

It is precisely because of this that the program's requirements for guests are appearance > music.

The other seven guests have been selected, and they are all big names in the music industry, but any program must have green leaves and fun.

And Xu Zhe'an is this happy person.

What he is responsible for is to do his best to play the role of the underdog in the show.

The guy at the bottom is the kind of guy who is disappointing, speechless, and annoying.

To play the role of the so-called "greasy man", "common man" and "low-headed man" in the mouth of the little fairies, and make the next four female singers who take turns with him hate them as much as they can.

It sets off the excellence of several other male singers and provides entertainment to netizens. But it is a romance drama after all, so the guests cannot be too ugly, they must be handsome boys and beautiful girls.

And Xu Zhe'an fits this candidate very well.

25 years old, debuted three years ago, released an album, but not one masterpiece.

When the company signed him, it was because he was handsome and wanted to work as an assembly line kid.

As it turned out, Xu Zhe'an was lucky. The first song he wrote happened to be a hit, and he just drifted off.

Later, I insisted on singing the songs I wrote and releasing an original album.

The company looked down upon his songs and were not willing to waste money on the crappy songs Xu Zhe'an wrote himself.

So Xu Zhe'an released the album at his own expense, and even spent money on publicity and distribution, focusing everything on his first original album.

Then he threw himself so hard that his parents didn't even recognize him.

Xu Zhe'an, who missed the initial opportunity, wanted to follow the company again, but the company had already given up on him and gave the opportunity to others.

His fame didn't improve, he didn't make any money, and he was still in debt because he released an album at his own expense and spent money to promote it.

Playing music is very expensive, and Xu Zhe'an's family is an ordinary family.

And he was not the only one who paid for his arrogance and arrogance in those years.

And his family.

Over the years, my parents have been frugal and frugal, and as they approach retirement age, they are once again under tremendous financial pressure.

Xu Zhe'an also suffered for three years, but what pained him most was that he was dragging his family down.

Fortunately, the hard days seem to be finally coming to an end.

Xu Zhe'an, a male singer who has never announced anything, finally has his first variety show in his life.

——He is handsome and can write songs, but has no talent.

He is a perfect candidate for the male lead in "Melody of Sakura".

He is an artist, and playing such a character on the show will basically ruin his own stardom.

——If it was Xu Zhe'an three years ago, he would definitely think so.

How crazy he was at that time. Because he could write songs and was handsome, he was spotted by a big company and signed a contract while in college. He was arrogant and ambitious.

But now after being tortured for three years, Xu Zhe'an has sobered up.

It doesn’t matter, black and red are also red!
I have been a transparent person for three years, and I have suffered enough.

Now, I want traffic and popularity!

Hellfire, that's fire too!

Bottom man?
It's okay, I'll act, act hard!

In the days when he had no money, Xu Zhe'an couldn't think about going on for a minute.

Letting himself and his family live a good life is Xu Zhe'an's next motivation goal.

Looking at the remaining money in the account, Xu Zhe'an walked out of the rental house directly.

He has to rent a hotel.

The program team will arrive for filming in two days, and the entire twenty-day period of this variety show will be broadcast live.

In other words, after a few days, the photographer will go directly to his home to take pictures.

Although I have to play a low-income man, I don't have to start from my own shabby rental house.

After all, this place is in an alley, and commercial vehicles from the program team can't drive in.

After changing his clothes, Xu Zhe'an found a hotel very close to the city center and stayed for a few days.

So, a few days later, Xu Zhe'an waited for the program team to arrive.

"Hello, Mr. Xu, this mobile phone is specially prepared for you by the show. It contains the contact information of seven other guests, so you can talk directly."

Opening the door, a staff member next to me said with a smile while being photographed by a photographer.

"At the same time, you also need to pay attention to the fact that the chat content on this mobile phone will be published simultaneously to the live broadcast. Be careful with your words."

"Tomorrow morning, I hope you can meet your first exchange singer, Han Zhilan, on time, and then arrive at our recording cabin before twelve o'clock. You can use this special mobile phone to contact the other party tonight to arrange tomorrow's meet."

“The only way to travel is to rent a car or use your own car.”

Xu Zhe'an looked at the dark camera around him and knew that the "Sakura Color of Melody" program had officially begun.

Although he doesn't know how many viewers are watching him now, Xu Zhe'an knows that he must show his loyalty to the director.

Strictly implement the eight-character policy:

Follow the script and never break the contract.

I'm serious about playing the role of the underdog.

So he took out his mobile phone, found the name of Han Zhilan, thought about it, and sent a few messages and hotel location.

"Hello, I am your exchange singer, Xu Zhe'an."

"This is my hotel location."

"Is it convenient to pick me up tomorrow?"
