Chapter 232 The Protagonist of Two Stages
Time continues to pass.
The backstage was getting busier and busier.
The cheers from the audience in the front court also grew louder and louder.
Under the influence of such a restless atmosphere, even Xu Xiyu's attention gradually became unable to concentrate. Fortunately, this New Year's Day speech has been written a long time ago. Now it is just a revision, so there won't be any problems.
After revising for a while, a voice rang in his ear: "Teacher Xu, it's time to put on makeup."
Hearing this, Xu Xiyu raised his head and smiled and said: "Wait a moment."
Then he closed the IPAD and handed it to Shan Xinbao and said: "There is no problem with the content. Send it to Qin Shangqi for me."
"Okay." Shan Xinbao quickly took it and became excited.
Who would have thought that he was just interviewing to be an artist assistant, and now he was about to become the chairman's assistant. This was such a huge jump in status.
After explaining these things, Xu Xiyu looked at his watch. The time showed [8:24], and the New Year's Eve concert had begun.
The reason why he went to put on makeup now was because he was scheduled to appear at 11:52.
Tonight, he will perform two songs.
Both songs were designated by the concert director.
One song is "Chasing Dreams" that he sang during the live broadcast before. After singing this song, he sang "Tomorrow Will Be Better" with all the guests tonight.
After singing the two songs, it was almost 11:59, just in time to start counting down to the New Year.
The reason why these two songs were designated is because the director team feels that these two songs are more uplifting and have good meanings.
Compared with other romantic songs, these two songs are more suitable to be sung before the New Year.
Speaking of which, this is Xu Xiyu's first time singing on such a big stage, and it is impossible to say that he is not nervous.
And his nervous look made those who were already saying weird things hope to see his jokes.
Especially Li Fangyuan and Bu Zhaojie kept praying in their hearts that Xu Xiyu would overturn later.
Not only them, but Meng Chengming, Zhang Yiyuan and even Wang Honghui, who was already in the frontcourt, also had this thought.
After all, if you just watch Xu Xiyu show off, there will always be a time when you overturn, right?
Time passed slowly with everyone's different thoughts.
Lu Qinyao, who appeared earlier, sang three songs and returned to the backstage. As soon as she came back, she sat next to Xu Xiyu and chatted non-stop.
Naturally, she did this to help Xu Xiyu relieve his tension.
Soon, Wu Shiyi also joined the team.
We just chatted and chatted, with people coming and going backstage. Finally, a staff member came over and reminded: "Teacher Xu, it's time to wait."
Hearing this, Xu Xiyu took her cell phone and looked at the time.
I saw 11:40 displayed on the screen.
After the staff informed Xu Xiyu, they began to notify others to go to the waiting area.
As I just said, everyone will have to go on stage together to sing "Tomorrow Will Be Better" later.
11:50.
Xu Xiyu stood at the established position.
At this time, listening to the roar of the mountains and the tsunami outside, his breathing became more rapid.
Take a deep breath.
Take another deep breath.
"Come on, come on, come on..." He kept cheering himself up. Until the voice from the broadcasting station came to my ears.
"Teacher Xu, be ready for the lift."
Immediately afterwards, the voice of the drummer of the band also came through the headset: "The accompaniment will come in in 30 seconds. Teacher Xu, don't be nervous."
"10 seconds, ready to start the accompaniment, the metronome will help you turn it on."
As these words sounded, the stage rose and fell. Xu Xiyu's ears also heard the "ta, da, da, da" sound of the metronome in 4/4 time.
Soon, the accompaniment started playing and the lights began to change colors as set.
The drummer's prompt sounded again: "Enter the drums, enter the main song after eight beats, 5~6~7~8~ enter!"
"Where is the world full of flowers~~
If it really exists then I will definitely go~~"
“Woooo~~~~”
The drummer's prompt, Xu Xiyu's singing, and the cheers of the audience sounded one after another.
His first big stage performance kicked off.
Also kicking off is another performance on a big stage.
【Ding~】
At 11:52, all Huaqing employees received two push messages on their OA (office) system mobile phones.
The first title is "Notice on Mr. Xu Xiyu's official appointment as chairman of [Beijing Huaqing Media Co., Ltd.]"
The second title is "New Year's Day Speech by Mr. Xu Xiyu, Chairman of Huaqing"
A minute later, screenshots of these two files appeared online, and the person who released the news captioned it: [Breaking news! Xu Xiyu takes office as chairman of Huaqing! 】
At this time, the concert guests were waiting on the side of the stage.
While watching Xu Xiyu singing on the stage, he was chatting and waiting to go on stage to sing "Tomorrow Will Be Better".
"His voice is broken. Did his voice just break?"
"This is embarrassing."
"Hahahaha, it's your first time as a newcomer, so everyone should be more tolerant."
"You know you are a newcomer, but you are still so arrogant? If he comes to say hello, we can impart some experience to him."
"This kid still has a long way to go. He has some talent, but he is doomed to have little future if he relies on his talent and is arrogant."
Listening to the discussion around him, Bu Zhaojie's face turned red, as happy as if he was drunk.
Li Fangyuan's condition was similar to his.
As for Meng Chengming, he didn't feel too happy. For some reason, he always had a bad feeling.
It was at this time that Wu Shiyi, who was standing next to him, suddenly exclaimed: "Really or not?!" Such an abrupt voice caused the eyes of the people nearby to turn to her.
She was covering her mouth and staring down at the screen of Lu Qinyao's mobile phone with wide eyes, as if she saw something extraordinary on the screen.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Yiyuan asked curiously.
Hearing this question, Wu Shiyi raised her head and said in an extremely complicated tone: "Brother Yuan, Hua Qing's new chairman is Xi Yu!"
"?" Zhang Yiyuan.
"??" Bu Zhaojie.
"???" Li Fangyuan.
"????" Others.
"What are you talking about?!" Meng Chengming exclaimed after being stunned for a second.
This movement attracted more people's attention.
Wu Shiyi took the phone from Lu Qinyao and then pointed the screen at Meng Chengming.
Meng Chengming quickly came closer. Li Fangyuan, Bu Zhaojie, Zhang Yiyuan next to him, and even some guests behind him also stretched their necks to take a look.
You wouldn't know it if you didn't take a look, and everyone was dumbfounded.
Especially Meng Chengming, after he saw clearly what was on the screen.
His head suddenly turned to Xu Xiyu, who was struggling to sing on the stage.
Then he turned around suddenly and squeezed out two words from his throat: "What the hell?!"
"No way, it's fake news!!" Li Fangyuan also saw the news clearly at this time and said in disbelief.
Bu Zhaojie also quickly answered: "Yes, it's impossible. This is too ridiculous. It must have been made up by netizens. Wasn't there someone who made this joke in the comment area before?"
When Lu Qinyao heard these two words, she couldn't hold back any longer and sneered: "Pfft... two clowns."
"You..." As soon as these words came out, Li Fangyuan's face turned red instantly, and he was about to reply in anger.
Suddenly I heard someone from another direction in the crowd exclaiming: "Holy shit! Everyone, big news, Hua Qing's new chairman is Xu Xiyu, holy shit!!"
Obviously, Lu Qinyao was not the only one playing with mobile phones at the scene.
As this voice sounded, the waiting area immediately exploded. Everyone moved very neatly and looked at the person who spoke.
"Real or false?"
"It really can't be true anymore. Damn it, the new legal person of Beili Culture is Xu Xiyu, and he holds 100% of the shares. Damn it! This Sun... this Mr. Xu, he really hides everything!"
His words trailed off.
Everyone in the waiting area looked at the stage with a tacit understanding. At this time, Xu Xiyu was just entering the second chorus.
Bu Zhaojie and Li Fangyuan couldn't help but look at each other at this moment. Both of them saw the extreme shock in the other's eyes.
Of course, in addition to shock, there is also unconcealable panic and confusion.
Li Fangyuan didn't know how to describe his mood at this time.
How is this possible?
Is this a joke?
It’s the Chinese New Year, so do this, right?
I just found an A-list actor as my boyfriend, and he went straight to become the chairman?
Hit the streets!
Including family property!
If I had known earlier, I should have stuck to my original idea and gone straight to catch him. Isn’t this guy much better than Meng Chengming?
As for Bu Zhaojie, his mind was even more complicated.
Yesterday, I was still saying that Jiang Yue had no future with Xu Xiyu. The slap in the face really came too quickly.
What to do?
This grandson doesn’t hold grudges, does he?
He won't fuck me?
In fact, it wasn't just the two of them who were panicking.
Among the guests present, many people's expressions also became ugly. Without exception, these people are the ones who just said weird things and played off the authority of their seniors.
To be honest, if Xu Xiyu was just the chairman of Huaqing, it would not cause everyone to panic like this. After all, there is a company behind everyone.
But the problem is that this grandson named Xu has grown from an amateur to the boss of one of the most well-known film and television companies in domestic entertainment in half a year.
This is fucking scary.
It would be damned if there was no one behind this.
This is what everyone is afraid of.
Who knows what force is behind Xu Xiyu?
If someone deliberately wants to cause trouble for you, it will be really difficult to deal with it.
regret.
Some people really feel extremely regretful at this moment, so regretful that they want to slap themselves in the mouth.
Damn it, what kind of senior are you pretending to be?
Are your songs popular among others?
Are your songs good?
If someone doesn’t come to say hello, why don’t they come to say hello?
Isn't it cute enough that he is sitting quietly in the corner? Not easy-going enough?
Why is your mouth so mean?
Panic.
These people were really panicked.
Of course, some people were happy, and those guests who couldn't hold back their words were completely happy.
There is a saying that people who watch the excitement do not take it too seriously, and it is often said that people who work together are enemies.
The atmosphere in the waiting area became weird.
In this weird atmosphere, a notice from the staff came.
Everyone came on stage to sing "Tomorrow Will Be Better".
Originally singing this song was not a difficult task.
But the problem is that the protagonist has changed. He was singing with Xiao Xu before, so during the rehearsal, he was asked to stand aside.
Now I'm singing with Mr. Xu.
How the hell should I stand here?
