Chapter 32: The Birth of a Celebrity, Being Imitated is the Sincerest Form of Flattery
PS: Xiao Sao Ge is about to release a single, I've been working hard! Please vote and support.
Becoming famous is not as easy as it seems, even people with real talent can be destroyed by the "unwritten rules of the industry". However, a certain person apparently doesn't understand the twists and turns that happen in this process, he's just riding his broken bicycle under the scorching sun, sweating profusely.
According to the reward given by the system last night, Xiaosha Ge didn't need to perform or beg for rewards in this section of the road before arriving at Yu State, whether it was a town or a district government. However, Xiaosha Ge did not take advantage of this convenience because after finishing his performance last night, he found that even if he sang all the way to Mogadishu, it would not greatly improve his already excellent singing skills. Nevertheless, he still had to see it through to the end.
Firstly, this performance can greatly enhance his communication skills. He used to be a bookworm with no achievements, and although he may have had eloquence, it was never expressed, almost becoming a silent worm. But now, in just one short day, his eloquence has increased dramatically, and when speaking with others, he can do so with courtesy and propriety.
Secondly, performing along the way is also a very good way for an unknown newcomer who wants to become the most successful star in the world but has no reputation at home to gain popularity and leave an impression among the masses. In the future, once he becomes famous, everyone who has watched his performance will have a feeling of "sudden enlightenment" and may even increase his supporters.
Just like he said in the interview with Chang Hai Xin last night, he now has no life insights at all. If he really wants to learn how to write songs, it's likely that he'll be completely stuck and won't be able to come up with a single word even after half a year. So, although he is very uncomfortable now, he still needs to persist, just like using suffering and hardship in exchange for the inspiration that will come later.
So yesterday that very speechless system gave this brain-damaged task's cool guy, today will not have the "reward" of freedom, or decide to ride and perform all the way.
From Dazu to Shapingba in Chongqing downtown, it's over 130 kilometers via Chengyu Highway, but that's not a dish for someone pedaling a bicycle. So he had no choice but to follow the "nearest" route map provided by the system, passing through village after village and town after town along the way.
When the time changed from morning to noon, someone had already walked 30 kilometers. From the system map, he was less than 50 kilometers away from Shapingba District of Chongqing Municipality. And Xiao Shuai Ge had also performed in three small towns along the way with a calm and unhurried attitude.
When his mentality calmed down and was no longer entangled in rewards and tasks, his performance level indeed improved a lot. As a result, even if he didn't "chase" after the small change of rewards like yesterday, his income for the entire morning still exceeded the efforts of the whole day yesterday, easily earning over 200 yuan.
It's not about the level of performance, but rather that the closer you get to Chongqing, this western megacity and national municipality, the better the standard of living for local residents, the more small change they have in their pockets, and so everyone is in a good mood and naturally less stingy.
After a big meal at a small restaurant in Jinlong Town, someone couldn't help but wipe the sweat from their clothes, which were already completely soaked. Honestly, this kind of extreme exercise in such weather really tests one's physical endurance. The constant flow of sweat easily leads to dehydration and salt deficiency, while the non-stop cycling makes one's stomach growl with hunger quickly, and one's throat feels like it's on fire. If someone is not physically fit, they would definitely collapse on the highway.
Xiao Sa Ge took a look at the system map, because he was walking in a "straight line", so along the way he would cross 9 town regions again. But it doesn't matter, now he is seeking "fate", as long as he doesn't pass directly through the center of the town, he won't go out of his way to perform. So, actually, his task in the afternoon will be very simple, only two towns need to stop and perform. One is Jin Feng Town and the other is Han Gu Town. Then he can enter the city to rest.
A faint sound of "drip" suddenly came, and Xiao Shuai, who was drinking the bitter tea made by the restaurant owner to relieve the heat, was taken aback: How did this task come again? I'm not in a state of emotional excitement now?
"After system detection, player Tang Xiao Sa has now gained initial fame. Therefore, the system will activate the first task of gaining fame: Song Friends Gathering."
As expected by some unlucky guy, the broken system directly released a task, and this task was very sudden, making people dizzy.
"Has Ge become famous? How is that possible?" Xiaosan Ge heard the system's prompt, and almost spat out the bitter tea in his mouth. How was this possible? Didn't those reporters say it themselves? Theirs is an evening paper! It won't be issued until tonight, okay? How did Ge become famous then? He didn't even care about that "Song Friends Gathering" task anymore.
"Please have the player log in to the Potato Video Sharing website, and everything will become clear." The system didn't give any further explanation, but instead directly gave out the prompt.
Xiao Sao Ge “……”
Then someone hastily asked the boss for the address of a small black internet cafe in town, and then he rode his bike over, spent 5 yuan to open a computer, and quickly entered the URL into a very simple webpage called "Potato Video Website".
"I..." Someone's eyes scanned the page, and suddenly they were flustered, barely holding back a shout.
Only saw Xiao Shuai's increasingly handsome portrait hanging in a video frame at the top of the website, and this photo was taken quite well: his mouth was facing the microphone on the microphone stand, while he himself was hugging a guitar, half-closing his eyes and opening his mouth... Just looking at this appearance, it's clear that this person must be singing. Moreover, due to the distance, surprisingly, the bloodstains on his head were not captured, and the few drops of blood on his face could almost be ignored due to the reflection.
This relatively good-looking photo is not the reason for someone's shock, but rather the 150,000 clicks and nearly 2,000 comments below the video, as well as the title that a media expert praised: "A god-like performance, regret for life if you don't watch it." These things combined instantly made someone feel both depressed and ecstatic.
The reason for the depression is simple. Even if you don't look at the netizens' comments and evaluations, Xiao Su Ge can think of it. He must have left an impression of "imitation emperor" in the hearts of these "trendy people". Because his performance last night was really amazing! Who cares about male or female stars? As soon as he opens his mouth, he comes out with original voice dubbing. What's more amazing than this? If you're capable, show me a performance?
It's even easier to be ecstatic, with 1.5 million people recognizing themselves in just one morning, isn't that a good thing?! The ultimate goal of being an actor and singer is to let others know about oneself, right? To have everyone pay attention to oneself? And judging from the current situation, he might become a focal point figure followed by millions, which also makes him a topic of conversation. Ah, naturally, that means he's made a name for himself.
"I'm done for, from now on my brother won't be able to turn over a new leaf!" Xiao Sao Ge woke up from his extreme excitement and suddenly felt that the pressure of Duck梨 Mountain was huge. Because he had originally decided not to become famous and would never perform imitations again, but with this video, his plan would definitely be ruthlessly destroyed.
It's really hard to turn over if something goes wrong! Xiao Shuai's head almost exploded, he leaned on the chair and thought for a while, suddenly his face moved, and he became excited: "To break through the current passive situation, unless..."
