The host said a few words to each person, and when it came to Zhang Yue, he remarked: “Recently, one of Zhang Yue’s cover songs has become quite popular, has everyone heard it?” The audience got excited: “Oh oh oh—” They were referring to the song “He Bi Xi Xiang,” which had indeed become popular, but everyone knew it was a cut-up version, and it was also a collaboration with Qi Shejiang. Zhang Yue flatly said, “It was edited by the netizens.” Moreover, he thought the editing wasn’t impressive! He hadn’t particularly prepared; he just sang it, and honestly, he sounded amazing when singing with Qi Shejiang! The host’s eyes lit up; he wanted to say more, but unfortunately, Xie Qing had already taken over the conversation. At the next guest, coincidentally, it was also a performer of crosstalk. Interestingly, he was a junior disciple of Lin Yang. The host wanted to continue the previous topic and cheerfully said: “It seems Zhang Yue has some destiny with crosstalk; the person he collaborated with is a crosstalk performer, and our Teacher Wang is also a crosstalk actor.” Teacher Wang raised an eyebrow, “Actors are still somewhat different; for instance, I wouldn’t bring up artists I have grievances with on stage.” As soon as he said this, the audience fell silent, then erupted with “Wow.”
Teacher Wang was indeed a good talker, and as a junior disciple of Lin Yang, he knew how to play the crowd. Teacher Wang showed a hint of pride and looked at Zhang Yue with a cheerful expression, almost seeking sympathy. Recently, Lin Yang had been having a tough time; Teacher Wang wanted to stand with his senior but didn’t want to repeat past mistakes, so he chose an angle he felt was good.
Who knew that the next moment, Zhang Yue would change his demeanor, “What’s it to you? Did I throw shade at you? If he brings it on stage, it’s a roast, and you all are poking at him; why don’t you think about how to improve your own artistic skills instead of causing drama? Did you memorize your lines this morning??”
Teacher Wang: “…??? The venue was in an uproar, and the audience was reaching a climax. What was going on?! Zhang Yue was defending Qi Shejiang!
