The weather is good today, the wind is bright and sunny outside the window, the leaves of the palm trees in the Normal University are swaying in the wind, and there are white clouds in the sky. A gust of breeze blows in from the window, making the white screens sway.
"Ah~"
Jiang Kan yawned big, stretched, and sat up from the bed.
"Ha, it's nice weather again!"
He got out of bed sleepily, walked to the living room, poured himself a glass of cold water, drank it "gu dong gu dong", and then walked to the window to enjoy the beautiful scenery today.
"Dingling bell~"
The cell phone on the bedside of the bedroom suddenly rang urgently, interrupting his good mood of admiring the beautiful scenery.
"Hey, Xiao Zhang, why did you call me so early?"
Before realizing the seriousness of the matter, Jiang Kan still smiled and asked.
"Brother Kan, something big happened!"
Zhang Lingling's anxious shout knocked away any remaining sleepiness in him in an instant!
"What's wrong? What happened? Speak slowly, don't rush..."
Jiang Kan was also frightened by her tone. He quickly concentrated and listened to her talking on the phone about the rumors about him that had happened in the past two days.
A long while.
"What? You actually said that my songs were all arranged by other composers in the company, and then put them on my head to praise me as a genius composer?"
Jiang Kan was stunned after hearing the news.
What the hell is this? Do those reporters and paparazzi really have no news to write about and are they going to start such baseless rumors?
Are your achievements forcibly promoted by Feiyang Entertainment?
If he really wants to praise him, wouldn't it be better to praise a young man in his twenties who has just debuted? He is more popular than himself for more than 20 years. How much more money can he make? Why should he praise a forty-year-old man? Middle-aged man?
Is capital sick?
What’s even more outrageous is, would anyone really believe such a nonsense rumor?
Jiang Kan pinched his nose helplessly, feeling pain in his temples.
"This news seems to have spread from a few tabloids at first, and then somehow, it spread more and more overnight, and now many large and medium-sized media have reported it on their web pages!"
Zhang Lingling was also so anxious that she got angry and had a blister on her mouth. She called Jiang Kan early in the morning to inform him of the incident.
"Why, why did they suddenly think of spreading rumors about me? Wasn't it the best time to spread rumors when I was participating in "Xia Guo Good Singer"? It's been more than two months before they suddenly made an effort to spread rumors. Me, what is this picture of?"
Jiang Kan was also puzzled. These paparazzi were all sick, right? They suddenly jumped out and bit him without making a sound. Not only did he bite himself, but he also activated other rabid dogs to bite him together. What happened to this!
"I can probably guess a little bit. Maybe it's because your recent performance has been too outstanding and someone is jealous..."
Zhang Lingling has been working in this industry for many years, and she has seen similar things in the past. Generally, when this happens, someone feels that someone is blocking his way, or is too jealous of his achievements, so he wants to take action. destroy.
"Brother Kan, Brother Kan, you have been releasing songs so fast these days, and the songs are all classics, so many companies have regretted the custom orders they had originally made, and more have not yet been confirmed. Companies who are looking for someone to produce songs have also come to you for production, right?”
While Zhang Lingling was talking, she accidentally bit a blister in her mouth. The pain made her grimace. She quickly drank a sip of cold water to relieve some pain before continuing.
"I guess many companies in your Yangcheng area saw this situation and felt that you were blocking their way to make money, so some people wanted to spread rumors about you and ruin your reputation, so that Party A's companies would Consider this and then transfer the order originally intended for you to another company.”
Jiang Kan nodded slightly when he heard her analysis. Indeed, if you ruin a person's reputation, he will not be able to do it again in the future.
Clients who come to him will definitely consider whether they will be affected by the incident. If it affects them, they will really get nothing but trouble.
And this time the person who spread the rumor was very cautious and rigorous. He didn't say that Jiang Kan was "plagiarized" at all, but that the company used other people's songs to "praise" him. In this way, even if it was finally confirmed that this was a fake If he was wrong, he could also say that he was just making false accusations and was misled. Even if he was falsely accused, the accusation of "company flattering people" would definitely be much lighter than the accusation of "plagiarism".
But the effect achieved is the same, that is, Jiang Kan is dishonest and his positive image has been destroyed, which will definitely lead to a crazy loss of followers and a reduction in many contracts that could have been obtained in the future.
"Then...what should I do now? Is there any countermeasures on the company's side?"
Jiang Kan didn't have much experience in dealing with this, so he could only resort to the company's publicity.
"Don't worry, we will immediately set up a special team to clarify this rumor. You will also try to limit your interviews with reporters. I'm afraid you may accidentally say the wrong thing without relevant experience..."
Zhang Lingling also forced herself to relax as much as possible at this time, and not to speak so urgently, which made Brother Kan even more nervous when he heard it.
"If you are really stopped by a reporter and can't leave, then you should also pay attention to your attitude when you are being interviewed. Don't show a nervous or angry expression! These paparazzi are the best at catching rumors and framing graft. If you are a little bit If you show any negative emotions or expressions, they will describe you as timid and angry after being exposed!"
Zhang Lingling has quite a lot of experience in this area. She has been an agent for more than ten years, and she has seen endless tricks of various paparazzi reporters. People with less experience will fall for it accidentally. Their way.
"Moreover, no matter what they ask, you have to emphasize one point - this is someone spreading rumors and slandering your professionalism and personality. Prosecution is not ruled out. Then you reject whatever they ask and let them interview me. You know Are you there? Don’t talk to them too much, I’m afraid you’ll fall into their trap!”
Zhang Lingling was so anxious in her heart. She just regretted that she had just been promoted to deputy minister during this period, and her workload suddenly increased more than ten times. She really didn't have the time and energy to come to Brother Kan and stay with him like before. He helps him deal with those troublesome things.
"Haha, don't worry, Xiao Zhang. I'm quite strict with my words. I heard everything you said clearly. I will definitely do what you said. Don't worry too much!"
Listening to Zhang Lingling's comforting words and eager tone, Jiang Kan felt a gentle warmth spread throughout his body.
It feels good to have someone care about you.
I have been working for so many years, and no one has ever cared about me so much. I have endured so many grievances and hardships in life and work over the past ten years, and I have endured them all by myself.
From time to time, some of his good friends would use them as tree holes to complain about, but he himself was not the kind of person who liked to treat others as tree holes. He had nowhere to pour his bitterness, and could only go alone occasionally. When traveling in the mountains or the seaside, I yell a few times into the distance to vent my anger.
The grievances, unwillingness and resentment I have felt over the years have all been endured by myself.
Therefore, Zhang Lingling's care and comfort made him feel a happy feeling that he had never experienced before.
"Thank you, Xiao Zhang."
he whispered into the phone.
Zhang Lingling was stunned when she heard this!
"Hey, haha, why are you being so polite to me? Haha, Brother Kan, please be careful. I'm going to work first and try to get things done for you as soon as possible!"
After saying that, as if something was urging her, she quickly hung up the phone.
But he didn't put down the phone. Instead, he held it in his arms, his face turned red, and he bit his lower lip with his teeth, unconsciously showing a smile.
She only felt that her heartbeat was so strong that she could hear it even from such a distance.
"Ding!"
Jiang Kan suddenly heard a loud notification sound in his head.
"This system has discovered that the host is currently in a situation plagued by rumors."
"In order to encourage the host to strengthen its confidence and dispel the rumors, this system has released a new mission [Those who purge themselves will purify themselves]!"
"Mission goal: cleanse yourself of the rumors and resolve this reputation crisis!"
"Task reward: a random music treasure chest!"
"May I ask the host if you want to receive it?"
"Oh? System, are you also concerned about my reputation?"
Jiang Kan couldn't help but asked in surprise, and he always thought that the system would not express any opinions or tasks on this matter. After all, his songs were really not his own creations. Although the company did not buy the songs to package him, But after all, it is also a gift from the earth.
"The host is selected by this system from thousands of people on the blue star of your plane. He is the most suitable person to convey the culture and art of the earth. He is the messenger who conveys truth, goodness and beauty. His reputation cannot be slandered by the common people!" Chinese website
It was rare for him to express his views in a systematic and righteous manner. Jiang Kan nodded thoughtfully after hearing the words.
"May I ask if the host accepts this mission?"
The system repeated it again, this time the voice was more serious.
"accept!"
"Okay, host, please try your best to clarify the rumors and wash away the slander imposed on you by these common people."
"Warm reminder: In order to complete this task, the host can make full use of external forces. No matter how the host's reputation is preserved, this task is considered completed."
"Hey……"
Jiang Kan pursed his lips and nodded. He also saw the system's support for him from this task. It seems that the cause of delivering the earth's musical works is really a sacred mission in the eyes of the system, and he should also Please do more for it!
Chengdu, Jiuyan Bridge.
After a day's work, Yu Kai, who was exhausted, drove his dusty Explorer and parked it in a parking lot dedicated to the bar street. Then he forced his tired body to get out of the car and walked beside the river. In the fresh night air that is unique to the wind, I stretched out a lot.
He was still struggling for his own livelihood before, but now he has switched jobs to a skills training school. In the past few days, he has been busy recruiting students for the training school, and he was so busy that he did not leave the office all day long.
Before getting off work, he called home and said that he would have to work overtime in the evening and not go back for dinner. Then he drove here, planning to have a few drinks after get off work like the office workers in Fuso Country. Feel the warmth of family.
He just pushed open the door of the tavern with his weak hands, only to find that there was no one in the bustling bar today. There were only two familiar figures sitting in the boss's special booth in the distance, drinking. .
"Yu Kai, are you here? This way!"
Seeing Yu Kai push open the door and come in, Liu Zhiheng raised his hand and waved to him. His shout was particularly clear in the empty bar, but he also seemed to have some loneliness and indescribable emotions inside.
"Hey, what's going on here today? Why are you two alone? Where are the guests?"
Yu Kai walked over quickly, put the backpack with the laptop on his back on the seat next to him, and sat down on the chair in the booth.
"Boss Liu is unhappy today and doesn't want to open the door."
Holding a fist-sized glass half filled with vodka in his hand, Lao Zhou, who was sitting aside, seemed to have no energy and spoke casually.
"What's going on, are you having trouble making a movie? Are the actors trying to be big names or is the director trying to increase the budget?"
Yu Kai was not polite to the two of them, he reached out and picked up a bottle of Corolla on the table, bit it open with his teeth and poured a sip into his mouth.
"It's not about the movie, it's about Kan."
Boss Liu looked at the beer bottle in his hand, his eyes were a little distracted, and his words were also a little listless.
"What? Something happened to Jiang Kan? What happened? Car... traffic accident
So you are still sick? "
Yu Kai's eyes widened when he heard this, and his hand that was about to take a second sip of beer stopped in mid-air.
"It's not an accident in the sense of safety, it's... forget it, you can see for yourself."
He unlocked his phone, tapped the screen twice, and then pushed it to Yu Kai from the table.
"Let's see, what's going on is so exaggerated..."
Then he picked up the phone with his usual carefree look and put it in front of his eyes.
"Shocking! A forty-year-old genius composer is actually the product of capital packaging!"
"Big scam! The annual champion of "Xia Guo Good Singer" sings other people's songs!"
"To use ruthless means to package geniuses, is this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morals?"
"Half a year after debuting, 30 classic songs were created! Is it the sweat of genius or the power of money behind high productivity?"
"An interview with Jiang Kan's childhood friend confirmed that this person has never sung since he was a child. The truth of the matter is self-evident!"
The same reports grew up as quickly as the weeds by the river that had been wetted by wild dogs and urinated, and developed as quickly as some thoughtful people expected.
