born unlucky star

No matter how full the words were in front of his friends, Ji Tianyou still felt a little guilty.He came out to work directly without going to college, his education is not high, and his limited performance experience is limited to a few cameo appearances in high school, so even if he submitted his resume, he still felt uneasy.

Fortunately, he has been playing guitar since junior high school, and his singing skills are quite outstanding. The sample tape attached to his resume probably played a big role, and he received an interview notice not long after.This time, Zhou Tao and Xu Liang were both busy. Before the interview, they tossed him a lot and dragged him into special training for a long time, but he was never tired enough.

On the day of the interview, Ji Tianyou asked Zhou Tao to borrow trendy clothes, and came to the headquarters of Huacheng Media Group with his guitar on his back.

The headquarters building of Huacheng Media Group is located in the most luxurious area in the city center, and the whole building is several hundred meters high.Looking up from downstairs, the light blue and silver gray appearance of the building reflects the cold light of metal under the sunlight. Luxury and atmosphere.

Ji Tianyou took a deep breath, took a few steps, and went straight to the twentieth floor where the interview hall was located.

Outside the interview hall, many boys and girls dressed in fashion and personality lined up in a neat line.Ji Tianyou knew that such a well-known entertainment company had a very rare opportunity to hold a training camp, and young people who wanted to realize their star dreams naturally flocked here.But those who can really pass the selection and enter the training camp, and then successfully enter the entertainment industry and have a place, are only a few of them.

Thinking of this, he suddenly became uneasy again.

Realizing that his number was called, Ji Tianyou agreed vaguely, took a step, and entered the interview hall, just in time to hear the last interviewer finish his answer, and passed him by.

Huacheng's interview hall is much bigger than he imagined, it is a real stage, and the spacious auditorium can accommodate hundreds of people.At this moment, several interviewers were sitting in the front row of seats, looking at him with calm and professional eyes.

After a short self-introduction, Ji Tianyou was asked to play and sing.This is exactly what he had prepared in advance.

He obediently took off the acoustic guitar on his back and held it in his arms. Inexplicably, a familiar sense of security surrounded him, and the tension that he had been unable to restrain until just now suddenly disappeared.

After lightly plucking the strings a few times to confirm the pitch, a lively and lively guitar sound suddenly sounded.There was a familiar melody in his ears. He closed his eyes, listened quietly for a few seconds, and then spoke, his hoarse voice blended into the sound of the guitar without a trace.

Different from the deep and hoarse voice of mature men, Ji Tianyou's voice is clear but not slender, just like the magnificent red that blooms when the setting sun is about to completely merge into the distant mountains, layer by layer, rendering enchanting purple and melancholy blue, but Happens to have fiery passion.

A... strange attraction.

A brisk melody echoed in the empty interview hall.Ji Tianyou was immersed in his own world when he suddenly felt a pain in his fingertips.

There was a "thud" in his heart, and he looked down.Sure enough, the guitar string broke.

Don't be in a situation like this...

He lamented from the bottom of his heart, a thin layer of sweat had already oozed from his forehead due to the illumination of the stage lights.His whole body trembled slightly, and the sudden silence made this moment extremely difficult.

Blank, blank, blank.

All that can be seen in the eyes are the critical eyes of the interviewer below the stage.

Suddenly, the appearance of him being taught by his mother when he was practicing guitar in the hot summer came to mind, the pain he felt every time he touched the strings when he was a beginner, and the bold words he said when he left his hometown: "I will definitely come back after I become famous !"

He took a deep breath and pressed his fingers on the strings again.

Change chords, improvise, bite the bullet and move on.

At the end of the song, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.The interviewer in the audience seemed to be quite satisfied with his adaptability. Afterwards, someone asked again:

"Have you tested your vocal range?"

"No, but you can sing up to C3."

The interviewer under the stage nodded and asked again: "Have you received professional training?"

"……nor."

"It says on your resume that you can dance. How long have you practiced? What kind of dance do you know?"

"I learned a little hip-hop from my classmates, and danced by myself for a year or two."

"Can you act?" an interviewer suddenly asked.

Ji Tianyou was stunned for a moment, and replied: "No."

Such a straightforward answer immediately attracted whispers from several interviewers, and Ji Tianyou clenched his fists again.After a while, the interviewer just nodded to him, and then signaled to call the next one.

Ji Tianyou's heart sank, he bowed blankly, thanked him with a smile on his face, and left the venue with his guitar.

He asked for leave today to attend the interview. He didn't expect it to end so soon, but he was a little dazed.

Huacheng's performing arts training camp this time is mainly to cultivate all-round talents, and it's not like he doesn't know this.But he still participated with the mentality of giving it a try.

If...if his musical talent can make Hua Cheng and his gang ignore the fact that he can't act, and recruit him out of the ordinary...

He tried his best to get rid of the messy thoughts in his head, and walked to the door of the interview hall, only to see a slender young man in a white shirt leaning against the door, looking at him with a pair of phoenix eyes undisguised.

Ji Tianyou's appearance is often called delicate and charming, but the young man in front of him is like a cat, exuding a completely different lazy charm from him. The wide-open neckline reveals fair and delicate skin, and the facial features are somewhat European-style. People's eyes light up.

It's a pity that Ji Tianyou couldn't take care of himself at the moment, and naturally he didn't have the heart to respond to the young man's gaze, so he just walked out on his own.

"Huacheng is not a place where everyone can come. There are too many people with good singing skills, and you are not qualified to enter here. You should go back and practice for decades before coming back!"

When passing by him, the boy said so.

As if a sharp knife had been viciously pierced into his heart, Ji Tianyou's pace suddenly accelerated a lot, he just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.Behind him came the voice of the boy walking onto the stage and introducing himself:

"Dear interviewers, hello! My name is Lin Mu. I have received dance and vocal music training since I was a child, and it has been 12 years. I can play piano, guitar, drums, violin, etc..."

Ji Tianyou pursed his lips, and suddenly felt that the guitar on his back suddenly became much heavier, like a heavy mountain, making him unable to breathe.

***

At the same time, the suburbs.

Several men in black suits quietly bathed in the golden sunlight with solemn expressions.One of them was holding a black and white photo in his hand, and behind him was an elderly couple in luxurious clothes.At this moment, the old lady was wiping her tears with her hands, and the husband held her hand and handed over a handkerchief.

In front of everyone was Liang Pei, the general manager of Huacheng Media Group.He stood still for a moment, moving his lips unconsciously, as if he wanted to say something, but his lips, which were already a little chapped because of not moving for a long time, suddenly spread a thin pain.The pain stretched from the lips to the heart, then expanded infinitely, and finally filled the entire chest cavity.

He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was calm and composed.

He nodded to the men on both sides of the tomb, and saw the coffin containing his dearest brother slowly sinking into the dark soil.

The lady behind her cried even harder.Liang Pei walked up to her and patted her on the back lightly: "Mom, don't cry. I'm still here."

Liang Pei's mother, Mu Wanhua, kept nodding her head and buried her head in the arms of her eldest son, crying until she lost her appearance.

"Dad, you'd better take Mom away first."

Liang Pei was talking to his father Liang Tan.Liang Tan nodded: "What about you? Won't you go back with us?" Even at the funeral of his own son, Liang Tan, the chairman of Huacheng, was still calm and sophisticated.

"I..." Liang Pei's voice became hoarse, "I want to stay here for a while, to accompany my brother."

After seeing off his parents, Liang Pei took the portrait of his younger brother Liang Ren from his entourage.

The boy in the photo is smiling brightly, with two lovely dimples on his cheeks, he is the most innocent and happy age.But now, Liang Ren, who used to be a living and warm body, is destined to sleep under this land early in the darkness and cold.

If he had known that such an ending would come, he would never have agreed with his brother to study abroad.He will lock Ah Ren by his side for the rest of his life, so that he will never leave him and live a happy and healthy life forever.

He remembered Ah Ren's earnest look:

"Brother! Please! The conditions for studying abroad are better, and the scientific research there is far more successful than in China... just promise me!"

Faced with his younger brother's almost coquettish request, how could he not agree?

So even if he wanted to send his beloved brother to the other side of the ocean, he did it cruelly.

I just wanted to make him happy, but what I received was the cruelest punishment:

Younger brother Liang Ren died in a terrorist incident on campus.

Even though the gangster who entered the campus with a gun at that time had been shot, his Aren would never come back.

That's why he regretted so much, so regretful that he almost wanted to kill himself!

If at the beginning...if Ah Ren hadn't been promised to go abroad...

I don't know when the sky began to rain slightly.

Liang Pei's black suit was gradually wet, but he still didn't move.

Xie Yuxuan, assistant to the general manager, sighed slightly, held up a black umbrella, and covered Liang Pei's head: "Mr. Liang, it's time to go back. There is still a video conference at three o'clock in the afternoon."

After waiting for a few seconds, Liang Pei's nasal voice sounded: "Understood. Let's go."

Xie Yuxuan didn't look up, but silently followed behind Liang Pei, and got into the extended Lincoln with him.

On the way from the cemetery to the company, Liang Pei did not speak until he reached the company's headquarters, the car slowly stopped at the entrance of the building, and Liang Pei got out of the car.

He stood with his back to Xie Yuxuan, straightened his waist, like an invincible god.

Xie Yuxuan was too familiar with this posture.He hurriedly walked to Liang Pei's side, but out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently caught Liang Pei's hand.

He didn't clenched his fist, but there was an imperceptible tremor.

Xie Yuxuan turned his head and sighed deeply in his heart.
