In the end, Xu Yanyu was no match for Director Wu and was asked to leave.

Xu Yanyu declined Xiaozhi's offer to accompany her and turned to walk towards the rest area.

Since she had no other plans today, there was no need for her to stay in the TV station.

Xu Yanyu regretted it after she called Xiaozhi away.

The spatial layout of this H-stage was a bit complicated. She couldn't find the elevator, so she had no choice but to take the stairs.

Xu Yanyu was thinking about where to go for a stroll later.

She was a little absent-minded and almost bumped into someone when she turned the corner.

"Brother Gao! I'm sorry!" After Xu Yanyu saw who it was, he apologized repeatedly.

Gao Lichang was holding a cigarette in his hand, which he raised high. He said in a panic, "I'm fine. My cigarette didn't burn your clothes, did it?"

Xu Yanyu waved her hands and said, "No, no..."

Gao Lichang immediately put out the cigarette in his hand and said embarrassedly: "I didn't think that there would be people who would walk up the stairs, so I smoked here..."

"By the way, have you chosen your song?"

Xu Yanyu shook her head and said, "My song has not been confirmed yet. I want to sing an original song, but Director Wu may not be willing to do so."

Gao Lichang smiled and said, "You should listen to Director Wu. Director Wu is a good person. He has been doing variety shows for more than 20 years. His judgment will not be wrong."

"I've seen you on the Masked Singer show before, and your singing skills are among the best among the younger generation."

"Thank you for the compliment, Brother Gao. By the way, have you finalized your song?" Xu Yanyu had nothing else to do anyway, so she had time to chat with Gao Lichang.

The main reason was that she had heard Director Wu mention before that the song selected by Gao Lichang was also an original song.

She felt that Director Wu must have told Gao Lichang about the risks of choosing original songs, so why did this person still want to sing an original song?

Gao Lichang pulled out his hair and said with a smile: "How can Old Wu be more stubborn than me! I stepped onto the stage just to sing original songs."

Xu Yanyu looked at Gao Lichang in confusion, "Don't you want to be a singer?"

“Alas, my experience may be complicated.

I started teaching myself to compose music when I was 30 years old, and I met my wife when I published my works online.

She encouraged me to create...

Well, I probably sold a thousand songs.”

Gao Lichang spoke of his experience with some pride.

Xu Yanyu gave him a thumbs up and praised, "Brother Gao is awesome!"

She really admires people who are talented and willing to work hard.

Gao Lichang laughed at himself and said, "Haha... what's so great about that? I sold so many songs but didn't make any money.

I can’t even raise enough money for my wife’s medical expenses.”

"Ah?" Xu Yanyu was a little confused.

I sold so many songs but I still can’t even pay for my medical bills.

"She had a malignant tumor and needed an organ transplant. At that time, the technology in China was not advanced enough, so I used my connections and was told that only foreign countries could perform the operation.

But I have no money, I need money! I sold my house, my car...

Alas...it just so happened that I sold a song to a big shot in the circle at that time.

I'm angry!

I was in urgent need of money at that time, money to save my life!

I was desperate, so I thought that even if I gave up the right to be credited, I hoped that the big boss would give me more money because that song made him so much money.

But they said it was written in black and white, it’s sold, it’s sold. If I continue to make trouble, I’ll be a scoundrel.”

Gao Lichang habitually wanted to take out a cigarette to smoke, but then stopped.

Xu Yanyu looked at him sympathetically and asked, "So what happened to my sister-in-law later?"

Gao Lichang tilted his head slightly upward, staring at the ceiling, and then said, "She...left first. Hahahaha, I was lying in front of her bed at the time and said that I would never write songs again.

I wrote a shitty song. What's the point of writing it? I can't even save my family's lives. What's the point of writing it?"

Gao Lichang looked a little sad, but he soon regained his composure and continued, "But she wouldn't let me... She told me to do what I like, she likes to see my drive and my passion for creation.

She said that many people cannot find what they like in their entire lives, and many people live a mediocre life.

I am lucky, I should have persisted. It was this energy of mine that attracted her in the first place.

She said that people are born, grow old, get sick and die, and her illness is her fate, and it should not become a pain that stifles my creation. "

"Yes. My sister-in-law is right." Xu Yanyu agreed with what Gao Lichang's wife said. How many people have the opportunity to find something they strive for?

So Gao Lichang is lucky.

Gao Lichang smiled and continued, "I promised her. I did continue to create songs. But I never sold my songs again. The copyrights are firmly in my hands.

I like creating, but I... I don't think she should have died if I had become famous earlier.

I can still compose, but my songs belong only to me.”

Gao Lichang was a little incoherent at the end of his speech. He didn't know what he wanted to express, but he wanted to express something.

He didn't even know what was wrong, he didn't know who to blame.

Blame himself? But he sold all his RVs.

Blame the person who bought his song? But he bought the song in black and white.

But he felt a suffocation in his heart, a rage that he had no place to vent.

So what went wrong?

He still composes, and he stubbornly insists on singing his own songs...

Xu Yanyu suddenly realized: "No wonder you disagree with Director Wu's suggestion."

He just wants to showcase his own works and sing classic songs, which goes against his purpose.

"Hahaha, I didn't listen to him because I didn't have anything to ask for. I'm not short of money anymore, I have plenty of money now.

It’s better to be a singer, to go on stage and make money! I accepted Director Wu’s invitation and earned hundreds of thousands of yuan in appearance fees.

I have been writing songs for more than ten years, but I still don't make as much money as I have in the past two years as a singer.

Alas, people only remember the singer of the song.

Just like when talking about your song, everyone will only remember that you sang it and that song belongs to you.

Does anyone remember the people behind the scenes? Does anyone want to know who wrote the song?

We want to be famous, and if we are famous we will have money, and if we have money we will have countless songs to choose from.

A person who has never learned to compose music can obtain the composition rights of a song for only five thousand yuan.

There is no way to create, hahaha..."

Gao Lichang leaned against the wall and laughed louder and louder.

Xu Yanyu felt uncomfortable listening to his laughter.

So this is what Director Wu said, Gao Lichang is not after money or fame.

He just wants to create, but doesn't want to ruin his work.

He just needs a stage, a stage to showcase his work.

But she didn't know how to comfort Gao Lichang.

Does Gao Lichang need comfort?

No need, he has already figured out what he needs, and he has already stuck to his path.
