Chapter 59: The Surprising Phone Call
After Guo Xiaoyu's crazy singing of two songs, everything returned to calmness, and everyone went back to what they were doing. Only Gao Yuanyuan, she turned Guo Xiaoyu's notebook upside down, found all the songs he had recorded during his free time, and threatened him to sing them all. Although Gao Yuanyuan was not a singer, but as someone who often mixed in this circle, she could still tell if a song was good or not. There were many singers who could make a living just by having one hit song, and Guo Xiaoyu's few songs, in Gao Yuanyuan's opinion, were all classics! At this moment, she really wanted to open up Guo Xiaoyu's brain to see what was going on, this kind of genius move she had never seen before, even the current Asian pop king Jay Chou couldn't compare.
Gao Yuanyuan rushed out of Guo Xiaoyu's room with great enthusiasm, still holding his notebook in her hand. Guo Xiaoyu didn't even notice this, as long as Gao Yuanyuan wouldn't bother him again, he would be grateful. As for the notebook, what did it matter anyway?
Guo Xiaoyu thought that Gao Yuanyuan took away her laptop out of curiosity, but who would have thought that she actually did something that Guo Xiaoyu could never have imagined.
When Gao Yuanyuan and Huang Haibo showed a video to Guo Xiaoyu on the second day, Guo Xiaoyu was completely stunned.
In this video, there is a boy holding a guitar and singing a song with great concentration. Because the scene was shot from the side, the boy's face can't be seen very clearly. However, the familiar clothes, the dragon and phoenix patterns on the guitar, and the extremely familiar song all indicate that the person in the video is none other than himself. What shocked him even more was that the sheet music of "Finally Waiting for You" was attached below the video, with the three words "Guo Xiaoyu" prominently displayed under the lyrics, composition, and performance credits.
"What's going on here again?"
Facing Guo Xiaoyu's excitement, Gao Yuanyuan became more calm and pointed to the video click count, saying: "Really didn't expect it, in just one short day there were over 10 million clicks."
"This isn't the key point, okay!" Guo Xiaoyu really wanted to lose her temper, but apparently losing her temper wouldn't solve anything either, so she ended up with a bitter smile.
At this time, Huang Haibo said on the side: "It seems that taking down this video yesterday was a wise choice."
"No way, I thought uploading videos was something Yuanyuan sister did, didn't expect it to be you, Haibo brother."
Facing Guo Xiaoyu's questioning, Huang Haibo hastily said: "I just took the video, it wasn't me who uploaded it."
"You're an accomplice too." Guo Xiaoyu glared at him with a fierce expression.
Gao Yuanyuan looked like it wasn't her doing, excitedly said while watching the video: "Look at this, the comments below are really interesting, someone even said they want to marry Xiao Yu."
No kidding, the discussion section under the video has gone crazy.
"Wow, at 1 am, I just went online and was shocked by this song, it's so good! I think back to my day, when I sang songs, I sounded just as good as Guo Xiaoyu!" This brother, you need to keep taking your medicine.
"Wow, Guo Xiaoyu is so handsome! From the side, he looks like my senior!" Sister, where is your attention actually at?
"This song "Finally Waiting for You" has a melancholic tone, but Guo Xiaoyu's unique voice makes people feel the sweetness in the sorrow. This song is not only a classic in terms of lyrics and composition, but also in its performance, it's like having a solid foundation." Friends, you have good taste!
"The person upstairs is right, it's just a pity that there isn't a proper recording, otherwise the effect would be better. I am the person in charge of XX recording studio, if you need to record audio, you can find me, my contact information is..." Get lost, advertiser.
"Whatever, Guo Xiaoyu is so handsome, I'm already smitten."
"Yes, yes, you sing well and are so talented, and you're also so handsome. Guo Xiaoyu, I'm already your fan." Calm down, calm down.
"Have you guys noticed a problem? The guitar that Guo Xiaoyu is holding has a 'hai' character on it, and I also saw the same 'hai' character on Huang Haibo's guitar before. Are you guys saying that the one taking the video is actually Huang Haibo?"
"Whatever, anyway there's only one truth, and that is Guo Xiaoyu is so handsome!" What the heck is this?!
"Right, right." Whatever you say is right.
……
Seeing these comments, Guo Xiaoyu really had nothing to say. This kind of show-off thing was not what he wanted to do in the first place, but for some reason, seeing these people's comments, his heart was excited again.
"Yuanyuan jie..."
Looking at Guo Xiaoyu's pitifully cute appearance, Gao Yuanyuan patted the back of her own head and said, "Alright, alright, I'm afraid of you. This was all instructed by Auntie Li."
"Mom?"
"Gao Yuanyuan nodded and said, 'Auntie Li doesn't want you to spend your days like this, so she wants me to help you find some motivation.'"
Gao Yuanyuan stopped and looked at Guo Xiaoyu, saying softly: "Xiaoyu, I really don't understand. You have such great talent, from being in charge of 'Where's Dad Going' to your unique understanding of the script, and now you're showing such amazing talent in music too. If you can work a bit harder and bring out all your talent, you'll definitely be a legendary king!"
"Emperor of Heaven?" What is this? Emperor of Heaven! Guo Xiaoyu felt a bit dizzy.
At this time, Guo Xiaoyu's phone rang, suddenly interrupting his thoughts. He took out the phone and saw that it was Teacher He.
After connecting, Guo Xiaoyu hadn't spoken yet, and Teacher He on the other end threw over a barrage of words: "Xiaoyu, I thought you sang well last time, but I didn't expect it to be this good. Look, the click rate online has already exceeded 20 million, and there are people saying they want to set up a fan club for you. You're really amazing, you should participate in this year's Super Boy, you'll definitely be popular, definitely."
"Teacher He... calm down." After listening to Teacher He's nagging, Wu Xin's phone came in again: "Xiaoyu, I really didn't expect that your clichés would be liked by so many people, you're going to be popular!"
As soon as he heard this, Guo Xiaoyu suddenly became angry: "What a cliché! Look at the comments above, some fans even say that I'm comparable to Asia's Little King Jay Chou! That's Jay Chou, do you understand or not?!"
"Folded, you say I'm fat, and you're panting too." Wu Xin retorted bluntly: "Still Zhou Jielun, I think you're just a broken tire."
"Whatever, I won't argue with you anymore. You don't understand my loneliness." After a few sentences of bickering with Wu Xin, Guo Xiaoyu's mood became even calmer.
At this time, Guo's mother's phone call came over, but the speaker was Guo Xiao Yi: "Brother, I heard you singing, sounds great."
"Sounds good! Brother is awesome!"
"Mmm." On the other end of the phone, Guo Xiao Yi hurriedly nodded and praised: "It sounds great, brother is so awesome! Tomorrow when we go on a trip, I'll definitely let DY and the others listen too." It seems that the few kids have formed a deep friendship after their short trip.
At this time, Guo's mother took over the phone and said: "Xiaoyu, how is it? Seeing the rapidly rising click-through rate and everyone's comments, aren't you very happy?"
"Mom..." Guo Xiaoyu took a deep breath and said, "Mom, I know you and Dad have been trying your best for me. I don't dare to promise anything, but I can say that from now on, the time I spend sleeping in will only get shorter." Guo Xiaoyu had also come to his senses. He couldn't just muddle along for a lifetime, after all. His dad, mom, Teacher He, Yuanyuan... so many people had such high expectations of him. Although he didn't know how to become the best, he should at least give it a try.
After finishing the phone call with Guo's mother, a number that Guo Xiaoyu could never have imagined appeared on her mobile phone.
PS: Brothers and sisters, Guo Xiaoyu appears in front of everyone for the first time, asking for recommendations, collections, and rewards to celebrate!
