Chapter 21
One Underwater Song Ended Zeng Yi's Slacking Days!

“???What’s going on?”

“I just complained, and it’s already playing on the sky screen?”

“Is this going to be a continuous rant from now till the future? How can Phoenix Legend's songs always be so cheesy?”

As the video title appeared.

Across the various time-space locations in China.

The faces of the melon-eating masses were as ugly as they could be.

In the Chinese music scene, it’s not like there aren’t any groups that maintain their style.

But using “cheesy” as a style, that’s the only one.

And it’s so cheesy that even Zeng Yi can make fun of it.

This… this… this freaking dedication to cheesiness?

The video continued.

In the video, Zeng Yi and Linghua were standing in front of a sign that read “Rant”.

Zeng Yi was talking non-stop.

【Many friends, they say our songs are really cheesy】

【Linghua often complains to me】

【I told Linghua, how is this song’s cheesiness related to me?】

【I only have a few words?】

As he spoke, Zeng Yi looked sideways and recited his lyrics, “yoyo”.

“Nicely done, Old Zeng.”

“I didn’t realize you’re so brave in the future.”

On Zeng Yi and Linghua’s side.

Seeing Zeng Yi’s final YOYO expression.

She chuckled and turned to Zeng Yi beside her.

She didn’t say much, but her displeasure was obvious.

Zeng Yi was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head like a rattle drum, “No, no, no, it’s definitely a misunderstanding. How can I be brave?”

“Then tell me, who is the cheesiness of the song related to?”

Linghua deliberately pressed Zeng Yi.

If it was anyone else, Zeng Yi might have argued with them.

But he and Linghua were close friends.

Over the years, although the two had not become husband and wife.

But this partnership, this friendship, was something that transcended love.

In front of Linghua, Zeng Yi could be as playful as a big boy.

His eyes rolled, he lowered his head and mumbled softly, “Well… it’s not really related to me.”

The voice was not loud.

But it was said for Linghua to hear.

Linghua chuckled and threatened, “Okay, Old Zeng, you just wait. One day, I’m going to have someone add your lyrics in.”

“That’s also not related to me.”

“I’d love for you to add more lyrics.”

He shrank his neck and continued to play the submissive role.

But adding lyrics was just something he said casually.

Others complained about their songs being cheesy.

In reality, their songs were officially certified by the Big Underpants Television Station.

They followed the righteous and orthodox route.

Every song seemed ordinary.

But behind them all, there were meanings or allusions.

The lyricist, Zhang Cao, was also a righteous and orthodox promoter of national culture.

He had enough literary knowledge, but he was really bad at RAP.

If it wasn’t to cater to the tastes of the current popular market.

With these few words, Old Zhang would have to abandon them.

So adding lyrics was basically out of the question.

Unless they found a better way.

Or one day, the direction of the Chinese market changed.

“I’ve taken note.”

“I’ll talk to Old Zhang about it later.”

“Next time I write lyrics for you, I’ll be like me.”

Linghua hummed.

Her words had not yet landed.

Then, they saw the sky screen start playing another video.

Linghua took a closer look, it was still them!

“Hey! We’re gonna get roasted today.”

With Zeng Yi’s previous teasing.

Linghua could already imagine how the audience would be teasing them now.

Now this.

Their heat was unstoppable!

Smiling helplessly, Linghua said to Zeng Yi, “Three videos in a row, we’re probably going to steal even the spotlight from Teacher Five Hundred.”

Zeng Yi also chuckled, “We’ll apologize later.”

On their side, the two of them chuckled in embarrassment.

But on the other side, in the Chinese music scene.

The whole thing about the Phoenix Legend video also caused a huge sensation.

JJ Lin: “This is already the third one, I only have one clip?”

Jay Chou: “Three videos in a row, I’m so envious. Why do I only have one and a bit?”

Su Xing: “Why don’t I have any? Is my song so unworthy of the sky screen in the future?”

Zhang Jie: “I guess I still need to work harder to get the sky screen’s recognition.”

Five Hundred: “Phoenix Legend is hotter than me in the future?”

Xu Song, Wei Cheng, Lu Hu…

Every singer in the Chinese music scene, without exception.

At this moment, everyone was envious of Phoenix Legend’s favoritism from the sky screen.

As everyone was envious.

The video began to play.

【Now it’s harder for Zeng Yi to slack off than to climb to heaven】

【Before, he didn’t appear in the whole song】

【The audience couldn’t even find him】

【Of course, it’s his partner Linghua who has the biggest grievance】

【After all, no matter how much work you do, the money is always split 50-50】

【But the song “Underwater” completely ended Zeng Yi’s slacking off】
