Guo Ziyi was too nervous. He was afraid that his mother would be suspicious if she found out that Ding Xiang was sitting next to him at night, so he lied to her.
But who would have thought that Tan Huizhen would happily say, "Ah, that's good. Invite her to the house …"
Guo Ziyi's eyes instantly widened. Tan Huizhen said something about asking Ding Xiang to come over, but he didn't listen carefully. He covered his phone and turned to look at Ding Xiang. He mouthed to Ding Xiang in a panic, "My mom wants to see you!"
Ding Xiang was panicking too. She pointed at the phone and signaled to Guo Ziyi. "You're still on the phone. Don't ignore your mom!"
Guo Ziyi put the phone back to his ear and coughed. "Mom, I don't think it's necessary to invite Ding Xiang over, right? Also, she has other things to do … Well, in two days, Yang Huan, Yang Yi's sister and my partner in the 'Limit Challenge', will be coming to Yang Cheng for filming. Senior Ding Xiang is going to accompany her. "
Ding Xiang was confused. She shrugged at Guo Ziyi. "Why do you have to lie to your mom?
Yang Huan is in Guangzhou too! "
Ding Xiang was worried that her mother was really looking for her for something urgent. Besides, the more lies she told, the easier it was for her to be exposed. Guo Ziyi said that Yang Huan was in Jiangcheng too. Wasn't that a huge risk?
Of course, Ding Xiang didn't need to worry. Guo Ziyi soon understood what it meant to shoot yourself in the foot!
Tan Huizhen laughed happily. "Isn't that even better? I was thinking about how to ask her. After all, it's hard for her to make a trip to Guangzhou. It's even better that she wants to go there herself. I have something that I need her to bring to you! "
It turned out that Tan Huizhen invited Ding Xiang over for something that Guo Ziyi didn't hear. She invited Ding Xiang over for dinner because she wanted Ding Xiang to help her carry something!
Now, Guo Ziyi made up an excuse that Ding Xiang had to go. Now that Nanny Guo knew that Ding Xiang was' in 'Jiang City and was preparing to go to Yang City, wasn't she the best candidate?
"But, but … she's in school …" On such a cold day, Guo Ziyi was sweating profusely. He stuttered as he tried to think of an excuse to reject his mother's request.
"Don't worry, I'll send someone to pick her up." Tan Huizhen was born into a wealthy family in Min Province, so he was very generous with his words.
Guo Ziyi scratched his head hard, but couldn't think of a suitable reason.
But at this moment, a small notebook was handed over, and Guo Ziyi subconsciously took it.
This was a small notebook that Ding Xiang carried with her to record some work requirements at any time. Guo Ziyi saw a line of beautiful words written on it: "Promise your mother!"
Guo Ziyi turned around and saw Ding Xiang's angry expression. She glared at Guo Ziyi, indicating that Guo Ziyi should respond according to her request.
"How about this, mom, I'll call Senior Ding Xiang and ask her?" Guo Ziyi looked at Ding Xiang as he made up a few random words. He quickly hung up the phone.
Seeing that Guo Ziyi had hung up the phone, Ding Xiang said anxiously, "Why do you have to ask? Why don't you just say yes to your mother? Your mother wants to talk to me about something, how can you just say no? "
Guo Ziyi was actually thinking for his girlfriend. He explained, "But you're in Yang City now, we can't let you go back to Jiang City in this weather, right? It's too cold! "
Ding Xiang was touched and amused. She said, "But we can't just ignore your mother's request! She wants me to bring something for you, and you said that I'm in Jiang City and that I'm preparing to come to Yang City. If I don't go, won't I leave a bad impression on her? How can I put on such airs? "
Guo Ziyi scratched his head. He knew that he had messed up this matter.
"Alright, I don't blame you, I know you're doing this for my own good. But you still have to tell your mother that I'll go to your house tomorrow! " Ding Xiang held Guo Ziyi's hand and said gently, "You can't leave a bad impression on your mother! I'll buy a plane ticket and fly back to Jiang City later. "
Guo Ziyi said in distress, "But it's too hard on you!"
Ding Xiang was very determined at this moment. She said, "You have to give me a chance to perform! You can't always stand up for me. How will your parents view me? "
And so, the matter was settled.
That evening, Ding Xiang took a plane back to Jiang City.
…
The first season of China's Voice had ended, but its popularity had not dissipated.
The champion, Xu Lu, held a press conference the next day under the arrangement of her company. She announced that she would be starting to prepare her first album. The record company that she was signed to had even invited Xu Lu's mentor, Luo Jian, to be her music producer!
This showed that the record company that Xu Lu was signed to valued Xu Lu and treated her as a very important newcomer to be groomed.
But some of the contestants were not so lucky!
Although they were signed to management companies or record companies, those companies did not intend to invest resources in grooming them.
After all, although these contestants had good voices, they still had some flaws. For example, their skin was too dark, or they were too short, or their looks were plain … This was also why they could not make a name for themselves in the music industry!
Compared to the artists that the companies had chosen, these contestants were a far cry!
However, they didn't invite these students back for a meal for free! Taking advantage of the fact that China's Voice was still popular and these contestants still had a place in the audience's memory, the companies arranged for them to frequently participate in some commercial activities.
From the looks of it, these contestants' schedules were packed to the brim. They were sent to and fro by cars, accompanied by three to five managers and assistants. This lineup was very much like a celebrity's. Even looking at how they were dressed like nouveau riche and how arrogant they were in the news, it seemed that they were even more popular than Xu Lu who had just announced her new album!
Could it be that the champion did not develop as well as these contestants who had been eliminated early on?
Perhaps only these contestants who did not know the truth were proud of themselves. The industry insiders could see it clearly, but they would not explain it to the public.
These contestants might be glamorous now, but in a few months' time, when Xu Lu finished recording her album and was ready for her official debut after the company's training, they would have been buried in the sea of people in the entertainment industry.
In fact, the entertainment industry was just that cruel!
In other words, the world was just that cruel!
If they remained stagnant and continued to show off their old ways, such people would sooner or later be overtaken by the latecomers. One had to know that other than debuting singers, there were thousands of people who wanted to replace them!
Popularity was a consumable. When the audience's interest in them began to fade, when their uniqueness gradually became undistinguishable, that would be the time for them to leave the stage!
At that time, they would probably only be able to live in the media's gloating.
