The voting period hadn't ended, but the advantage in the number of votes was too obvious. Nanfeng had no choice but to make preparations in advance.
"Boss, if you receive an invitation from the organizers, you probably won't reject it, right?" Nanfeng asked.
"No," Fang Zhao replied. "Let me think about the performance."
"Alright!"
Based on the current situation, Fang Zhao would definitely be invited. As a positive role model promoted by authoritative media outlets, he wouldn't be blocked out if he didn't have any serious flaws.
In reality, it was just as Nanfeng thought. After the organizers saw the voting results, they didn't wait for the voting to end before contacting Fang Zhao and inviting him to participate in Star Cup's victory ceremony.
Mo Lang didn't wish for Fang Zhao to participate in any other activities after returning, but he couldn't refuse. Star Cup's significance was different. He had no choice but to agree. Fortunately, Fang Zhao's graduation concert proposal was satisfactory. The progress wasn't bad. The fact that Fang Zhao was able to come up with so many things meant that Fang Zhao had been preparing for his graduation concert and hadn't been delayed by any other matters.
However, before the Star Cup victory ceremony, Mo Lang called Fang Zhao over for supplementary lessons and made amendments to Fang Zhao's graduation concert proposal.
Thus, Fang Zhao didn't have much time to go out after returning to school. Zaro had gone to Huangzhou to play and saved up for a meal, but Fang Zhao hadn't been able to go out either.
Zaro felt that it was a pity that Fang Zhao didn't come out. "My bro really wants to meet you. Oh, he was also invited by the Star Cup organizers. You guys will meet when the time comes."
"Which one?" Fang Zhao asked. He was a little curious.
"Bobo, ah, Chu Bo, nicknamed Bomber. He is the one ranked second on the Star Cup's most popular celebrity rankings."
After ending the call with Fang Zhao, Zaro contacted the people on his contact list one by one. Since he had gone to Planet Bu to participate in poverty alleviation, it had been a long time since he had met up with his gang of scoundrels.
Zaro also contacted Danke Assis. "Come out and have some fun!"
"Not free, I have to take care of the kid!" Danke really wanted to come out and have fun, but he couldn't find the time. He had completed the initial task his dad had given him, but perhaps because he had taken care of the kid too well, the higher-ups were too lazy to replace him. Every once in a while, they would send him over to play with Little Bear. Coincidentally, he wasn't free today.
While Zaro was "helping the poor" on Planet Bu, he had learned from his pack of scoundrels that Danke had brought a child with him and had jumped up in shock. People like them might have fun, but there was a limit to it. When they heard that Danke was taking care of a child at home, they couldn't help but think about many things. It was only after Danke came out to explain that they realized that Danke was a Crown Prince of the Inter-planetary Fund. Thus, they no longer joked around with that child and merely rejoiced in his misfortune.
"Isn't the mission complete? How long has it been? "Zaro was puzzled.
"New mission. That child is probably going to school somewhere and will only come out during the holidays. In any case, I will be called over to play with the child every once in a while." Danke sounded exhausted.
"Alright, another day then. Bobo is coming to Huangzhou today and will be staying in the Imperial City for a period of time. Let's meet again then."
Zaro had his own private residence in Huangzhou. Every time he met someone, he would meet there. Not long after ending the call with Danke, the "Bobo" he was talking about arrived.
Chu Bo was from Jinzhou's super aristocratic Chu family and a descendant of a great general. His status was similar to Zaro's in Leizhou. Their personalities were also similar — they were ruthless when it came to insulting others.
The difference was that Zaro was straightforward when it came to insulting others. Whatever method others used against him, he would return it the same way. If someone insulted him on social media, he would directly insult them back.
However, Chu Bo was different. Regardless of where or how someone insulted him, he loved to write the words he wanted to say into his lyrics and scold them back.
Chu Bo had a head of dazzling blonde hair — dyed. After arriving at Zaro's residence, he scanned the area. "No one is here?"
"He's on the way. Danke can't come. He's at home taking care of the child. You know the one."
"Still taking care of him?" Chu Bo didn't pay much attention and asked, "What about Fang Zhao? Is he coming? "
"He can't come. His teacher has locked him out for lessons."
"… Are all the teachers in the Twelve Tones advanced course so strict? They weren't like this even when I was in class back then. "Chu Bo searched online." That's not right. Isn't his direct teacher Prof. Carter? Prof. Carter is giving lectures overseas these two days. Who is the one teaching Fang Zhao today? "
"Prof. Carter? I'm not sure. " Zaro recalled his conversation with Fang Zhao. "However, when I was talking to him, he seemed to be saying something to someone. I didn't hear what he said clearly, but I think he called 'Teacher Mo' or someone else."
"Mo Lang?!" Chu Bo got excited and rubbed his hands together. "This won't do. When I meet Fang Zhao, I will definitely have a good chat with him!"
Chu Bo had always been paying attention to Fang Zhao. Because they were of similar ages and were both music-related, it was unavoidable for people to compare them even though their paths were different. Especially in the voting this time. Fang Zhao had obtained first place by a large margin while Chu Bo was second. It wasn't that he wasn't convinced. He was just more curious about Fang Zhao. He had originally thought that he would be able to meet Fang Zhao today, but he hadn't expected that the Twelve Tones advanced course would be so strict.
Fortunately, they had both been invited by the Star Cup organizers and would be able to meet when the time came.
"Hey, Zaro, you have interacted with Fang Zhao for a long time on Planet Bu. How is he normally? Are the testimonials published by the military newspapers real? "Chu Bo asked.
…
While Chu Bo was inquiring about Fang Zhao, Fang Zhao, who had been called to Mo Lang's home for a lesson, rested in the study after listening to Mo Lang's analysis and evaluation of his thesis.
Mo Lang was getting on in years after all and didn't have much time or energy to teach Fang Zhao. He would rest after class and Fang Zhao would spend most of the time alone. There were all sorts of professional books in the study as well as Mo Lang's manuscripts that couldn't be seen outside.
After Fang Zhao finished organizing his thesis, he searched for Chu Bo's personal information during his break.
Prior to this, Fang Zhao had watched Chu Bo's concert videos and had also seen the various entertainment media reports on Chu Bo's personal experiences.
Chu Bo was born in a military family and had always obtained straight A's from kindergarten to university. However, he wasn't the obedient type and had an unruly temperament. Later on, he had been admitted to Jinzhou's best university with excellent grades and formed a band for fun. After attending university for two years, he realized that he still loved singing more. Thus, it was as if he had suddenly found his true love and used another half a year to complete his studies. He graduated early and entered the neighboring music academy, which was also the best arts academy in the entire Jinzhou. This matter had made it to the headlines of the various Jinzhou media.
Some people said that he was willful, but he had the capital to be willful.
Some people also said that he had a personality. For example, many adolescent students liked this type of person who didn't walk the normal path.
Chu Bo liked to use incisive words to express his thoughts under the strong rhythms of machines and electronics. He didn't care what others thought of him. Just like last year, at the beginning of the year, Chu Bo had released an extremely aggressive punk song that was sought after by many punk music lovers. However, right after that, he had adapted an extremely famous decadent punk song into hard rock. Although it sold like hotcakes, it was boycotted by many punk fans and turned from fans to haters.
He would sharply criticize some bad phenomena in his songs, and he would suddenly sing a rap to criticize people when the atmosphere of the concert was at its most intense, and he would even change the lyrics. He had also written a positive, strong, and sunny song for a suicidal fan. He had also written an alternative rock song for those who had died in a terrorist attack. It was a song that prayed for good fortune in the afterlife.
Some people said that he was making use of that terrorist attack to gain popularity. However, on the seventh day after the terrorist attack, Chu Bo had released an extremely powerful anti-terrorist song. At that time, a well-known musician had evaluated him: "When violence is incorporated, a song is better than a gun."
After that, it was rumored that Chu Bo had made it onto some people's assassination list because of this anti-terrorist song. The Chu family had locked him up for a month before letting him out, and Chu Bo always had many bodyguards by his side.
However, there were also people who said that Chu Bo always had many bodyguards by his side because he dared to sing about anything and had offended many people with his cheap mouth. During a concert, he had even made an impromptu rap to attack a rather popular film emperor. Forget about terrorists, many people wanted to beat him up. As long as he couldn't control that mouth of his, even if he wasn't assassinated, he would still be banned sooner or later.
Some people hated him to the core, but there were also people who really liked him. Especially among secondary school students, Chu Bo's popularity had never dropped. If one only counted within the Jinzhou region, he would definitely be the star with the highest number of votes among secondary school students.
Globally, academics didn't like Chu Bo's style. Chu Bo didn't have a high status in the music industry, but he was still extremely popular among secondary school students. Chu Bo had also been invited to the Star Cup victory ceremony last year. This year, after accumulating popularity, he originally had the chance to become the most popular celebrity in the Star Cup. On the day that the voting results had been released, many students from Jinzhou had protested.
Fang Zhao watched the Chu Bo in the concert video. This kind of person stood on stage, unbridled, unbridled, and ostentatious. It was as if his entire body was glowing like a blazing little sun. When his radiance was at its brightest, his mouth would always follow his heart and couldn't be covered up.
Indeed, as the media had commented, Chu Bo would really change his lyrics when the atmosphere was intense. From time to time, Fang Zhao would see the words "* * *" or "beep" appear in the subtitles at the bottom of the screen. When the atmosphere was at its peak, the frequency of harmony was also the highest.
That wasn't a good habit.
Thinking about the Star Cup victory ceremony, Chu Bo wouldn't have cursed at such an occasion, right?
