Chapter 227 -227 He Looks Like a Dog!
The three of them were stunned by Wang Hao’s remark, and there was more to come. Wang Hao looked at Jiang Feng and asked, “Jiang Feng, do you have a girlfriend?”
Jiang Feng bashfully shook his head, “Not yet…”

“Okay,” Wang Hao laughed, “I think this Su Hongye is pretty good. If not, I’ll grab her for you as a bride.”
“No, no, no,” Jiang Feng’s head shook like a rattle-drum, “She… she’s not my type…”
“Pfft! Who do you think you are!” Su Hongye exclaimed, “I would never like you and your duck voice even if I were to die!”
“We’ll see about that,” Wang Hao laughed heartily, draped his arm around Jiang Feng, and walked away, “Okay, three cannon fodders, just teasing you, as if my Jiang Feng would fancy you, haha! Let’s go, see you tomorrow!”
Watching Wang Hao and his companion leave, Wei Yuanzhou angrily declared, “Damn it, I want to see how long you can stay cocky! Let’s go!”
…
On Lujiang Bridge in Zhonghai City.
Wang Hao found a spot with Jiang Feng by the bridge and sat down, laughing, “Okay, there aren’t many people here. Any grievances or dreams you have, shout them out here. You know, you might not have many chances like this in the future.”
“Okay… okay!” Jiang Feng clenched his teeth, suddenly stood up, leaned over the bridge parapet, and shouted with all his might, “I love music! I want to sing! I want to sing for my whole life! Until the day I can’t sing anymore! I want everyone to know, music is my life, it’s everything to me! Ah—!! Ah—!!!”
Passersby in the cars all looked at him as if he were a madman.
A sports car deliberately slowed down, and the people inside pointed and laughed at Jiang Feng; a scantily clad girl pointed at him, giggling, “Look, another one who’s gone crazy trying to be famous! Teehee, he looks like a dog!” They all burst into laughter.
Wang Hao, who heard these words, just shook his head with a smile and took a casual drag of his cigarette.
You’ll understand, this music-loving guy may very well pave a path that you can only look up to.
Because, he’s under Brother Hao’s protection!
“Feeling good?” Wang Hao extinguished his cigarette butt, walked over, and patted Jiang Feng’s shoulder, “Remember, when you’re on stage tomorrow, you’ll need to sing with this kind of power!”
“I get it! Don’t worry, Brother Hao, I definitely won’t disappoint you!” At this moment, Jiang Feng’s eyes were full of determination.
…
Dream Recording Studio.
“Harder! Push harder! Why does your singing always sound like it lacks energy?!”
“Good, very good! That’s the spirit! Presence, do you understand what presence means?”
“Belting! How should you ‘Exist’? Are you going to be a lifelong loser?! Belt it out! Shout out all your emotions!”
“Again! No, it still lacks that spirit! To be a successful singer, you must possess an unrivaled presence!”
“Why are you still so nervous, for heaven’s sake!”
“Right now, you are the most badass singer! Half of Heavenly Music Industry is yours! People will have to address you as Teacher Jiang Feng in the future! Sing with that confidence, go for it!”
“Good, very good, excellent! Yes, keep that state, that presence. You can do it, keep it up!”
…
At eleven o’clock the next day, South Second Ring Gymnasium in Zhonghai City.
Countless people, either music enthusiasts or just there out of sheer boredom to watch the spectacle, had gathered.
Inside and out, the place was swarming with people even before the audition started; the gymnasium was bustling with no fewer than ten thousand attendees!
It must be said, while the music circle seems big, it is not really that large – of course, what most enjoyed talking about was the persistently defeated “duck-voiced” Jiang Feng who was competing again!
To say the least, at least a thousand spectators, here just for the schadenfreude, came just because of him!
“Hey, did you hear? Jiang Feng is competing again this time, haha! Wonder how it’ll go this time.”
“Do you even need to ask? He’ll definitely be eliminated, right? After more than sixty eliminations, one more won’t make a difference, huh?”
“That’s hard to say, have you not heard? This time Jiang Feng has found some godsend, just a random draw, number eighty-eight!”
“Damn, that’s badass! That number must be worth a fortune!”
“For sure, just that one number alone is going to be thrilling. And what I’ve heard is even more intense, the contestant before him is Zhonghai Music College’s powerhouse singer Wei Yuanzhou. With such a gem before him, I fear he might lose even more miserably when compared!”
“Ha ha ha, it’s possible, it’s possible, anyway, this episode is definitely going to be exciting!”
…
In the athletes’ resting room of the gymnasium.
“Remember, don’t be nervous.” Wang Hao was currently giving Jiang Feng a pre-competition pep talk. “You’re not the same person you used to be. You’ve got a great song in hand, and you know what state you’re in, right? Just perform normally when the time comes. You’re all rested up, aren’t you?”
“I am,” Jiang Feng nodded fiercely. “Don’t worry, Brother Hao, I can do this. I definitely can! I believe music won’t abandon me! This time, I must prove it to everyone!”
“That’s the spirit!” Wang Hao laughed heartily. “If it really comes down to it, just close your eyes and belt it out with all you’ve got!”
“Alright!” Jiang Feng clenched his fists tightly. “I’m going all out! I promise not to let Brother Hao down!”
…
At exactly twelve noon, the two-kilometer stretch of road outside the entrance to the South Second Ring Gymnasium was packed with vehicles and pedestrians, making it impossible for water to flow through.
With just a fifty yuan ticket, one could enjoy an entire afternoon of a musical feast, which was still very popular among many people. The long police lines had been pulled up, with each police and security personnel working hard to maintain order as countless people lined up to enter the venue, creating an unprecedented level of popularity.
Looking around, there was a sea of heads, a black mass of people.
The main reason so many people had come was that they had heard through the grapevine that Jiang Feng, who had lost over sixty matches in a row, was going to make one last stand on the road of music today!
And what especially attracted attention was that his opponent this time was none other than the powerhouse singer from Zhonghai Music College, Wei Yuanzhou!
Many of the people who came today were there to cheer for Wei Yuanzhou!
It’s not an exaggeration to say that the competition hadn’t even started yet, and Jiang Feng was already at an absolute disadvantage. He might become the talk of the town for Zhonghai Music College students over the next few days—a classic negative example.
Thus, the popularity of today’s event far exceeded the shock effect of any previous competition.
…
Zeng Wenhui arrived with seven or eight friends from the industry, sitting in the front row of the stands, watching the field below.
To Zeng Wenhui’s right was a bald man, gleaming head shining brightly, named Luo Shiyuan—a senior music editor in the industry, mainly responsible for creating songs for film and television.
“Zeng,” Luo Shiyuan looked at the field below, his mood downcast. “You solemnly lured me here to see a good show, but it turns out we’re watching the performance of Jiang Feng, who keeps fighting despite repeated defeats?!”
“Heh heh, Luo, just you watch, there will be a surprise today.” Zeng Wenhui was very confident, knowing full well the changes in Jiang Feng, who now had the support of Wang Hao behind him. “I promise you won’t be disappointed!”
“I hope not to be,” Luo Shiyuan was still a bit depressed. “I have things to do this afternoon, and here you are troubling me. Number eighty-eight, right? I heard the one before him, number eighty-seven, is a strong competitor from Zhonghai Music College, named Wei Yuanzhou. Look at the young people in the audience, at least half of them are his fan group! Are you sure the two of them are comparable?”
Luo made a valid point; in music talent shows, what’s often most feared is a strong contestant performing before you.
After all, if the subsequent performance can’t surpass the prior one, it becomes very difficult to stand out.
By this time, the gymnasium was filling with more and more people. The crowd was a dense mass of heads. As seasoned musicians who had attended countless concerts, they could tell at a glance that there were easily more than thirty thousand people present.
“With so many people coming,” Luo Shiyuan grew even more pessimistic. “If he fails again today, the blow to him might be significant.”
“Just put your mind at ease,” Zeng Wenhui laughed. “With that person helping Jiang Feng, if he still fails, then he really should stop singing. He’s beyond helping.”
“That person? Who is that?” Luo Shiyuan asked, puzzled.
Zeng Wenhui leaned in and whispered two words into Luo Shiyuan’s ear. Luo Shiyuan was instantly shocked. “It’s him?!”
Meanwhile, on the field below, the host walked out, and soon the venue quieted down. The lights came up, and with a microphone in hand, the host announced loudly, “Ladies and gentlemen, audience friends on site, the 362nd Zhonghai Good Songs auditions are now beginning!”
