Chapter 83. Rookie singer"That guy is too good."
Producer Ma said as he arranged the files in his hands.
"Yeah, he"s not nervous and acting like he has many years of experience in giving interviews."
Writer Hu also complimented Ren as she smiled with satisfaction.
"It went better than we thought. He was just a subst.i.tute but the viewers reaction is really good today."
Producer Ma said as he looked at the comments on the monitor. There were various comments praising Ren and many people were still asking him questions.
There was not one adverse comment in them.
-Wow! I never thought about it but Xin Ren seems like a cool person.
-Yeah, I never thought he would have this kind of life before.
-He"s also funny. It"s one of the main abilities an actor should have.
-Hey, I wish my question get picked.
-Senior Wu seems to be enjoying the show too.
-Well, Senior Wu always enjoys his show. I wish he can do some singing later.
-Yeah, I wonder who will be the singer in the live singing segment today.
-Last time, it was that famous indie singer. I wonder who it will be this time.
-I want the interview to go longer though.
Although the comments were good, Writer Hu face became weird when she saw comments about the live singing segment.
"Producer Ma, can"t we do something about the live singing part?"
"No, you know that it"s the order of the higher ups. It looks like the higher ups had already taken in money."
Producer Ma said as he shook his head. His expression was not good thinking about the live singing part.
"But will that rookie even able to sing a good song?"
"I don"t know. I just know that she was a rookie singer who was just singing in bars and restaurants before being scouted by a entertainment agency."
Producer Ma sighed before continuing.
"It seems like the agency she got scouted in was just a startup currently and they gave lots of money to the higher ups for her to sing in our show. It seems that it was the last resort they had."
"But what about the song? It"s an original, right."
"Yeah, it is an original but I had already heard it. It"s at least okay. I am just worried if the rookie singer can perform live without hesitation."
Producer Ma said as he nodded his head.
"We will have to see about it. By the way, where is the rookie singer currently?"
Writer Hu said as she asked a staff member and the staff member replied.
"Writer Hu, she was feeling nervous, so she went outside to practice."
"Ah, it"s okay."
Writer Hu said as she started staring at Ren who was giving his finis.h.i.+ng lines in the radio booth.
* * *
"Ah, it was really a great experience to talk with you today, Senior Wu."
"No, it was nice having a talk with you. I hope you do well with your drama."
"I really hope that too."
Ren and Wu Wei shook their hands after the interview. The interview had gotten heated response, so both of them were very happy.
They also felt good as both of them had enjoyed the interview.
After that, Ren left the radio booth and Wu Wei started preparing for the next segment.
After coming out of the interview, Ren met with Producer Ma and Writer Hu and exchanged greetings.
"Thank you for your work today."
"No, I was me who should thank you. It was really nice."
Ren exchanged some greetings with both of them but he soon felt that the atmosphere around the room was not that good.
He felt that there was some problem of sorts but he didn"t tried to interfere in it as Producer Ma and Writer Hu were not looking like they will tell him what the problem was.
So, he changed the topic.
"By the way, Where"s White bear?"
Ren said as he looked around the room but he was not able to find White bear there.
"Oh, your manager. He said that he had to take an important call, so he went outside."
"Okay, then."
Ren left the studio five after that and went to the lobby to search for White bear but he was not able to find him there.
So, he took out his phone to call him but he noticed that there was a message from White bear.
[I suddenly had to do some important work. Sorry about it but can you wait for sometime in the radio station.]
"It looks like I have some time now."
Ren thought as he put his phone back. He glanced around his surroundings and started to think about what he can do.
"Let"s roam around."
In the end, Ren decided to roam around the radio station. As it was his first time here, he was curious about it.
He also thought that he can find some other celebrities here but even after roaming around for a few minutes, he didn"t found anything.
So, he went to the lobby to wait for White bear.
"What"s that sound?"
As Ren was moving towards the lobby, he suddenly heard a guitar"s sound. He stopped in his steps as he heard a familiar tune coming from it.
Ren moved towards the sound and saw a small girl playing the guitar sitting on a bench. She was playing the guitar well but Ren thought differently.
"The tune is too upbeat."
That"s what Ren felt when he heard that. Although he was an actor, in his previous life, he had learned how to play a guitar as a senior in his theatre had said that it would be good thing to learn it.
He had diligently taken many guitar lessons and although he was not on a professional level, he can play it well.
That"s why he felt that the tune was upbeat. As the tune was somewhat familiar to him, Ren unconsciously moved towards it.
After he was close to the girl playing the guitar, he said.
"Excuse me, can I play your guitar once?"
"Ah…"
The girl suddenly looked upward when Ren"s voice reached her ears.
"You, you want to play my guitar?"
"Yes, if it"s okay with you."
"I, I don"t have a problem with it."
The girl shyly have Ren her guitar as she watched him took a seat in front of her.
Ren first caressed the guitar like he was holding it after a very long time.
He then proceeded to change the chords and tried it once.
After confirming that the chords were alright, Ren started playing the guitar.
