Chapter 239: Spy’s New Mission And Magical Train Of Thought
The new episode of “Tian Xia Hao Ge Qu” has started broadcasting.
Lu Qi originally had no interest in it. After all, in her view, anyway, this kind of program would release the audio of the works, so just listen to the song directly; watching the program would waste too much time.
But tonight’s program, Fu Jiu who lives with her insisted on watching, and moreover, dragged her this cousin to watch together.
“Sister Xiao Le is going on stage too!” Fu Jiu said this, and Lu Qi became a bit interested.
When she turned on the television right on time and sat down beside her younger cousin, Lu Qi was still secretly contemplating—if it was just an ordinary boy, seeing Pei Ningle become famous, he would probably be impatient long ago, but if this matter was placed on Wang Heng, it might not be so certain? With this guy’s ability and arrogance, would he be willing to be the man behind a star?
“Wow, Sister Xiao Le is so pretty!” Fu Jiu suddenly exclaimed.
Lu Qi glanced at the television screen, originally wanting to smile it off, but still couldn’t help feeling vigilant.
Considering this girl’s appearance, soft rice seemed quite tempting too?
When Pei Ningle’s singing voice rang out, Fu Jiu stared without blinking, while Lu Qi’s thoughts were much more complex.
They all say that boys playing guitar and singing are especially good at picking up girls, so what about girls playing guitar and singing? For this competition, Wang Heng should have gone with her, so watching the young girl shining on stage, would he be moved? Could it be that these two had something happen in the Imperial Capital?
But thinking it over, Lu Qi felt slightly relieved. After all, Han Yixuan would definitely go along. Considering this nominal girlfriend’s scheming, Lu Qi didn’t think Pei Ningle would have any opportunity to take advantage. No matter what Pei Ningle wanted to do, Han Yixuan probably wouldn’t let her succeed.
While contemplating, Pei Ningle had already started singing. That melodious beautiful singing voice immediately attracted Lu Qi’s attention.
After the song ended, seeing the unanimous good reviews from the four mentors, as well as the high score of 49 votes from 51 judges, Lu Qi was momentarily speechless.
Fu Jiu didn’t think much at all, her innocent little face full of pride: “Our Sister Xiao Le is so awesome! Just watch, she will definitely win the final champion!”
Lu Qi glanced at her younger cousin and reminded: “Don’t speak too confidently, or it’s easy to jinx it.”
Fu Jiu: “Hmph, Sister Xiao Le is so awesome, it won’t be jinxed!”
Then the program continued.
The second singer went on stage, until the seventh, Zeng Ze’s affectionate performance received an unprecedented 50 votes.
Fu Jiu was still stubborn: “Hmph, no problem, just a difference of one vote, and there are two quota for the finals!”
After all eight contestants finished singing, in the final selection segment, Zeng Ze advanced first. Then, when Peng Xiaoya announced that the second qualifier was rap singer Xie Hong, Fu Jiu in front of the television was stunned.
On the screen, Pei Ningle and the other eliminated contestants walked off stage dejectedly together.
Fu Jiu’s tears fell immediately.
Lu Qi didn’t rub it in and mock her, but picked up her mobile phone and quietly sent a WeChat to Wang Heng: 【Just saw it, Pei Ningle was eliminated……You went with her, right? What’s her situation now?】
Starting a chat with Wang Heng using Pei Ningle as the topic, Lu Qi was already very familiar with this operation.
Fu Jiu went back to the bedroom to cry quietly.
While Lu Qi sat on the sofa, after a good while, she finally saw Wang Heng’s reply: 【Check the hot search on Weibo.】
So she opened Weibo, scrolling down the hot search list, her gaze suddenly stopped at around the twentieth position.
【Pei Ningle Eliminated by Backstage Deal】—this hot search was really too interesting.
Lu Qi thought for a moment, then sent another: 【Did the program group do this operation themselves?】
Wang Heng: 【Yeah, interesting, right.】
Lu Qi: 【Indeed interesting……But it’s good for you guys. She might be going viral, why not find a professional agent company?】
Wang Heng: 【No need, keeping the independent musician tag is more free.】
Lu Qi stared at her mobile phone for a very, very long time, without typing another word.
Not signing with a professional entertainment industry agent company, was this Pei Ningle’s own thought, or Wang Heng’s decision?
Lu Qi fell into contemplation.
After a good while, Lu Qi stood up, knocked on the door and walked into Fu Jiu’s bedroom,
The little girl sat on the edge of the bed, had already stopped crying, but her face still had tear stains.
Seeing her come in, Fu Jiu raised her head, hoarsely asking: “What’s up?”
Lu Qi: “Pei Ningle must have returned to Rongdu by now, do you want to go see her?”
Fu Jiu: “Me? What do you mean?”
Lu Qi persuaded patiently: “She was just a little short of advancing, she must be very sad now. You are her loyal fan, and also kind of a friend, isn’t it good to go comfort her? Of course, when going to comfort her, you can also see what her two agents are doing…”

“Holy crap, this is too unfair!”
In the dormitory, Fu Hanwen suddenly stood up, took off his headphones and slammed them on the desk. Of course, he didn’t use too much force when slamming, after all, wallet is limited, can’t be too indulgent when venting emotions.
Then Fu Hanwen came behind Wang Heng, patted his shoulder, and said: “This SB program is hilarious, right? That rap listenable? They’re sick!”
Wang Heng was originally reading a book, upon hearing this, he put down the book, turned back and said: “Strictly speaking, that rap quality is indeed pretty good.”
Fu Hanwen: “But your sister’s song is much better!”
Nearby Tang Hexing also chimed in: “Exactly, Teacher Wang, why are you speaking for the enemy?”
“Actually, it doesn’t matter enemy or not,” Wang Heng smiled slightly, “Music talent show program, after all, the most important thing isn’t the ranking, it’s fame. For example, in Brother Zeng’s competition that year, he got ninth place, eight people ranked higher than him, but who gained more fame?”
Fu Hanwen: “Only making it to the grand finals gives the most fame, right?”
Wang Heng: “Not necessarily, check the Weibo hot search now.”
Not just Fu Hanwen and Tang Hexing, including Wang Ke, all hurriedly opened Weibo to look at the hot search list.
【Pei Ningle Eliminated by Backstage Deal】 this title, although only around twentieth now, was obviously still rising. Clicking in, there were already many related comments.
“Definitely the program group’s backstage deal…” Fu Hanwen read one of them, nodded, “I knew it, I felt the same!”
But Tang Hexing noticed something fishy: “Wait, why did it get on hot search so fast? What we watched wasn’t live streaming, but not much time has passed, right?”
Wang Ke: “Could it be Teacher Wang who pulled strings?”
Wang Heng said with a wry smile: “You think too highly of me. Let me put it this way, the program group has an arrangement, this is a win-win situation…”
After briefly explaining this common operation in the entertainment industry, the three roommates quickly realized another thing.
Fu Hanwen: “Is your sister going to blow up?”
Wang Heng: “Blow up is not quite, but a wave of small fame should be no problem.”
Tang Hexing: “Can you have her sign for us? We can show off later…”
Wang Heng readily agreed: “No problem!”
As for Wang Ke, he had already found a poster from the drawer and handed it over: “Teacher Wang, trouble you to give this to your sister, have her sign it and give it back to me…”
Wang Heng: “Get lost! Take your Qiong sister poster back!”
Fu Hanwen couldn’t help sighing: “Xiao Ke, how does your brain work?”
