Chapter 22
When Li Yanxi sat in the auditorium and heard Zhao Chang sing "Chasing", he suddenly remembered who Zhao Chang was!
Since returning to China at the age of 23, his career has been smooth and his income has increased year by year. So later, he went to several cities around Beijing every year to select a few Hope Middle Schools and sponsor outstanding students there to complete their studies.
Zhao Chang is not the first child he sponsored, nor will he be the last.But that donation left a deep impression on him.
Eight years ago, he signed an agreement with Zhao Chang's Hope Middle School, willing to sponsor three cultural students, one art student and one music student to complete their studies until they graduate from university.
For the sake of fairness, the three cultural students were selected according to the scores of the city's joint entrance examination from high to low, and the art students and vocal music students were recommended by the school's teachers.Over the years, he has sponsored no less than a hundred students, and all accounting issues are left to the assistant.If Zhao Chang hadn't sung this song "Chasing", he would never have known that a boy group star who was in the sky would come out of the impoverished students he sponsored!
What about Wei Jiawen?Who is Wei Jiawen?
The same song "Chasing", with different singing methods, has the same shocking expression.Could he be that kid?
After listening to Wei Jiawen's singing, he felt cold all over for an instant.
At the beginning, he didn't know vocal music and art, but he asked the leaders of Hope Middle School to arrange a performance. On the one hand, it was to prevent the school from recommending not-so-good contacts, and on the other hand, he wanted to meet these children.
After meeting several art students, he simply and neatly selected the best students through art works.But when it came to vocal performances, it made him difficult.
Those were two boys in the third grade of junior high school.One has an excellent appearance, handsome appearance, slender body, and a pair of talking eyes, which makes people feel affectionate when looking at it; while the other is tall and fat, with fat on his face and full of youth Acne, that's all, that child is still naturally dull, and gradually boldly introduces himself even he hesitates and haws, and can't explain clearly for a long time.Li Yanxi shook his head repeatedly. Over the years, he had met countless singers, actors, and idols. He knew people accurately, so he concluded on the spot that this kid was definitely not the kind of person who could hang out in the music circle.
Come to think of it, the teachers and leaders of the school were not optimistic about Fatty.After all, in this era where appearance is paramount, how can a child with such poor appearance be able to occupy a place in the entertainment industry?What's more, he was still a poor child.Li Yanxi is a good person. From the introduction of the teachers in a few words, it can be guessed that the little fat man is just an "accompanying standard". Therefore, after the whole song, he is only assigned to a few lines of "accompanying the standard", which is neither easy to sing nor easy to shine. lyrics of.
Zhao Chang's voice is as outstanding as his appearance, with an unstoppable youthful spirit, it is perfect to sing this kind of inspirational song of chasing dreams.The seductive appearance, coupled with the passionate singing, made him almost forget the existence of the little fat man——
Until the little fat man sang his first sentence along with the music, "Those flowers are still blooming in my heart", and then, the song reached its climax, which was the chorus of the two.The voice of the little fat man was full of strength and penetrating power, and his discrimination was extremely strong, which quickly attracted Li Yanxi's attention.Under his singing, this song has a soul. Every note and lyrics are not just dry characters, but weeping blood and pearls.Li Yanxi subconsciously bit his lip, and he could no longer see other people in his eyes. He didn't come back to his senses until the end of a song.
After the singing, the two teenagers stepped off the podium one by one, sat obediently in the back row of the classroom, and waited for the judgment of fate.
The leader came over and said to Li Yanxi with flattery, "Zhao Chang's conditions are very good, and he will definitely become a talent in the future."
Li Yanxi nodded slightly.What the teacher said is not unreasonable.In terms of success, Zhao Chang's future is indeed brighter than that of the little fat man.Li Yanxi is an accounting student, and he always pays attention to cost performance and return on investment. The cost performance of funding Zhao Chang is obviously higher than funding this little fat man who can't see the future.
He no longer hesitated, took the donation agreement from the school leader, and quickly signed his name.
After a while, Zhao Chang and the little fat man walked up to him to accept the sentence of fate.Li Yanxi glanced at the two children in front of him, one was youthful, handsome and lively, and the other was obese and full of acne.He breathed a sigh of relief, and comforted himself, making this choice maximizes the benefits.
Even if he made a reasonable explanation in his heart, he was unwilling to meet the eager gaze cast by the little fat man, and the thin piece of paper in his hand was almost crushed by him.
He smiled a bit, quite hypocritically, and then put the agreement into Zhao Chang's hands.
Zhao Chang thanked him again and again excitedly, but he didn't feel relaxed and happy in his heart.
Before leaving Hope Middle School, he sat in the car and caught a glimpse of the little fat man not far away through the car window waving goodbye to him.There was an indescribable feeling in his heart, stuffy and itchy, as if ants were crawling into his heart in a row on a cloudy summer day.A thought repeatedly hovered in my heart: Is it not worthy of pursuing dreams if the appearance is not good?Is it more difficult to succeed and should be abandoned by everyone?
The moment the assistant Song Yu in the driver's seat started the car, Li Yanxi said quickly, "Stop."
He got out of the car and almost ran in front of the little fat man. The little fat man obviously didn't expect him to go back and forth, his face turned red, and he said timidly, "Brother, why are you back?"
Li Yanxi wanted to touch his cheeks, but felt that the little fat man's face was full of bumps and holes, and he couldn't do it. In the end, he just stroked his hair and said, "Brother is willing to sponsor you to study music until you graduate from college. OK?"
The surprise and happiness came so suddenly that the little fat man even forgot to express his gratitude and excitement. He just nodded shyly, then quickly lowered his head, staring at his toes, but secretly raised his eyes from time to time to look at Li Yanxi.
Li Yanxi smiled faintly, and went back to the principal's office.
The game was over, and Li Yanxi was walking in the crowd blankly, but was pushed out of the venue again by the crowd.The phone rang over and over again, but he ignored it.
Zhao Chang's appearance hasn't changed much these years, coupled with the similar voice and the same song, he immediately recalled the performance that took place in that small classroom in that dilapidated Hope Primary School.Zhao Chang on the stage is the child he once sponsored, he is sure of this.
But who is Wei Jiawen?
Wei Jiawen is a mature singer with a professional background, and his handling of "Chasing" is different from that little fat man back then.Even if Li Yanxi is a layman, he can tell the difference.Even though their appearances are very different and their singing styles are very different, the touching feeling that directly hits the soul is the same. Although I can't believe it, Li Yanxi still can't help but connect the two of them.What's more, Zhao Chang, as the most popular idol artist in China at the moment, has no reason to sing such an old-fashioned inspirational song in such a fierce arena.
It was a sudden decision to come to the scene, Zhao Chang couldn't possibly know.So Zhao Chang's goal would not be himself, it could only be Wei Jiawen who was on stage with him.
Li Yanxi's mind was spinning rapidly. Zhao Chang and Wei Jiawen must have had a relationship for a long time, and this song must have an extraordinary meaning to them!
His hands trembled a little, and he quickly opened the phone, and several missed calls and WeChat messages popped up in one go. He didn't even look at it, and quickly dialed Zhao Yu's number.
"Hello, Mr. Li." On the opposite side was Zhao Yu's steady voice.
Li Yanxi took two deep breaths, cleared his throat, and said, "Do you still remember that eight years ago, we sponsored two outstanding music students in Baocheng Hope Middle School?"
Many years have passed, and Zhao Yu couldn't remember these details clearly. He paused on the other side of the phone, and then said uncertainly, "It seems to be the case."
"At the beginning, we only planned to support one student with a special talent in music. Before I left, I saw another child...and turned back specially."
Hearing what Li Yanxi said, Zhao Yu immediately had an impression in his heart, "Yes, yes, there were two children at the beginning, and they sang a song together in the classroom. Both children have good qualifications, but one is too tall. Ugly."
Li Yanxi held the phone tightly, and the veins almost jumped out from under the skin, "One of them is Zhao Chang, who is now a popular artist. You can go to the accountant to look at the original file, and see the other child, what's his name."
Zhao Yu hung up the phone, feeling baffled.But he still complied, and quickly asked the financial staff for the original funding agreement. One was from Zhao Chang, and the other was impressively written, Wei Jiawen.
Zhao Yu didn't dare to delay, and immediately called Li Yanxi back, with disbelief in his voice, "Mr. Li, the other child, yes, it's Mr. Wei."
Li Yanxi was stunned on the road for a long time, and then said to Zhao Yu wearily, "Okay, I understand. Don't tell others about this."
Zhao Yu has been with Li Yanxi for ten years, so he naturally knows the importance of it, and he responds repeatedly.
Li Yanxi had previously agreed with Wei Jiawen to pick him up after the end, but Wei Jiawen couldn't get in touch with him, countless messages were not answered, and countless calls were not answered.Wei Jiawen stood restlessly in the background, he was very confused, one was from Zhao Chang, and the other was from Li Yanxi's sudden loss of contact.
He didn't get in touch with Li Yanxi until all the backstage people were gone, so he had no choice but to ask Wang Qi to come and pick him up.
He thought that Li Yanxi probably forgot about it, and maybe he saw it when he got home, but when he got home, he found that Li Yanxi was not at home.
He changed his clothes and waited in the living room, uneasiness surrounded him like a tide, and as time went by, a strong bad premonition hit him, making him almost as if he was drowning and couldn't breathe.
He sat on the sofa and waited until there was silence all around, and Li Yanxi opened the door until he almost fell asleep.
The two of them looked at each other, but Li Yanxi abruptly moved his eyes elsewhere.
Wei Jiawen walked to the entrance and wanted to help Li Yanxi take off his coat, but Li Yanxi blocked it with both hands.
He froze for a moment, bit his lip, stood with his hands down, and only called out in a low voice, "Brother..."
Li Yanxi sneered twice, raised his head, stared at Wei Jiawen's face, and asked sharply, "Why did you come to my side?"
Wei Jiawen couldn't understand Li Yanxi's words, so he said tentatively, "No, brother...it was you at that time..." It was you who first asked me to be your lover.Wei Jiawen couldn't say such words, so he just swallowed, then shook his head lightly, and said nothing more.
Li Yanxi clenched his hands tightly, his expression filled with impatience, "What is the reason? You'd better think about it before answering."
Wei Jiawen has seen Li Yanxi in countless appearances, kind, seductive, sexy, cool, indifferent, serious, lazy, cynical, and selfish, but he has never seen Li Yanxi like this.
It was anger, shock, disbelief, brutality, coldness, and aggression, as if my own existence was a lie and deception from beginning to end.
He suddenly understood and smiled wryly.
Was discovered, so can't we continue to be together?
He didn't back down, stared into Li Yanxi's eyes, and said word by word, "Because I love you, brother."
