Chapter 64: Settlement of Appearance Fee After a while, the melancholy in everyone's hearts dissipated a little, and then they immediately started discussing. "Noon Dog's song is pretty nice, the melody is very soothing to listen to." "Yeah, he sang well. Wu Gou's singing is really unique. It's the kind of feeling that makes people sink into his emotions as soon as he opens his mouth." "Do you understand what this song is about?" "It should be the mother, right?" "It's about mother! As soon as he opened his mouth, I thought of my mom!" "Definitely Mother! It's so painful. I didn't cry during Wu Mu's Diva, but I couldn't stand that song just now!" Mother? Everyone was undoubtedly a little surprised, because Wu Mu was the last one to take the stage.
How come the new song also fits the theme of the previous issue? It can't be written on the spot, right? The emotion in the song is nostalgia. "Has Wu Mu's mother passed away?" Someone asked curiously. Because his predecessor never mentioned his family affairs on any occasion and never responded to various groundless revelations, the public did not know the situation of his family. Mo Mo, who knew from an earlier conversation that Wu Mu's mother had passed away, looked at Wu Mu with some pity in his eyes. Fate is so unfair to Teacher Wu Mu. Although on the surface, Teacher Wu Mu seems to have thought that everything is over, he is actually still a little concerned in his heart. Although her mother Gu Yu, who was standing beside her, didn't know what was happening in Wu Mu's family, she could guess from the song. She was quite sympathetic and gave a high evaluation: "I like this song very much. I can hear the emotion in the song. I believe many mothers can hear it. It is a very good song." Online, viewers who watched the show live also had many speculations about Wu Mu's life experience. "Is Wu Mu's mother gone? Alas, at this age, it is definitely not a normal death." "I feel a little guilty. I used to scold him a lot, but I didn't expect his mother is really gone." "I felt that his family must be unhappy when he was singing Queen." "I suddenly feel that Wu Gouren is not easy either. Sometimes when I think about it, it seems that he is not that wrong." Many people couldn't help but feel sympathy for Wu Mu and were too embarrassed to continue criticizing him. Some people don't care much about Wu Mu's family and only care about his works. "Although I have always been a hater of Wu Mu, to be honest, this song of his touched my heart. The lyrics are so good." "Yes, I am a mother, and I can relate to the lyrics of this song. Before I had a child, I never thought that there would be someone in the world for whom I would be willing to give everything." "My mother passed away on the Lantern Festival this year. I hope that if there is an afterlife, I can see her again."
The live broadcast was filled with comments, all of which were discussing the song that Wu Mu had just sung. Regardless of whether you understand this song or not, whether you like it or not, you have to admit that the melody and lyrics of this song are pretty good. It's the kind of song that even if you don't like it, you can still tell that it's of good quality. While everyone was discussing it on the Internet, the show was still going on at the venue. The song is over, and the next step is the scoring phase. To be honest, Wu Mu could already roughly imagine his own score. And the result was just as he imagined. "Wu Mu's final score: 624 points." Well, that’s a new low since his first show. Wu Muren laughed out loud, "Teacher Mo Mo, you see, it seems that no one wants to help you make up for your little regret." Mo Mo glared at him. Who told you to tease your fans before going on stage? If you don't provoke them, people might actually give you a high score. You're so embarrassed that I have to give it one star. Mo Mo's little regret was never realized. Inside the venue, the show had not yet ended, but Wu Mu had already left. My identity has been exposed. If I stay any longer, I might be surrounded. I should retreat immediately. He ran to the security leader to get his salary and ID card. The security leader looked at him with an undoubtedly strange look. No, it’s okay for a big star like you to get into our security team, but do you really want to take this salary of a hundred yuan? Wu Mu not only wanted to take it, he also wanted the singer-songwriter program team to pay an appearance fee, "Hey, I'm adding an extra show to your program today, you have to pay for the appearance fee." "My appearance fee is two million per episode according to the previous price. Do you want to pay in cash or by bank transfer?" Lin Qingyue, who was filming behind, couldn't help but remind him, "This money doesn't count as your salary today. This income is not suitable for the profession of security guard." If Wu Mu were to add to this salary, then there would be nothing for others to compete with. Wang Xiaotian would not be able to earn this much even if he moved goods for his entire life. Wu Mu clicked his tongue, unconvinced. "I'm a security guard, it's reasonable for me to sing a song on stage and get an appearance fee. How come it doesn't meet the requirements?" But he also knew that Lin Qingyue would definitely not include this money in the competition. After protesting, he didn't argue much, but took out his phone and called Wu Feng. He really intended to ask for an appearance fee. Two million, not two dollars. Although the two parties haven't signed a contract and the relationship is not good, it's not necessary to get it, but it doesn't hurt to give it a try. When Wu Feng received the call from Wu Mu asking for his appearance fee, he was undoubtedly speechless. It was they who invited Wu Mu up there, and it wasn't something he didn't benefit from, so how could he have the nerve to ask for an appearance fee? Besides, didn’t you ask for a whole season’s salary when you withdrew from the competition? Is it reasonable for you to ask for more now?
If it was when Wu Mu had just withdrawn from the competition, he would definitely not give it. At that time, Wu Mu had basically been sentenced to death in his heart, and he thought that Wu Mu was really going to retire and disappear forever. But who would have thought that Wu Mu found another job. Not only has he found a job, but his popularity is also increasing. Now Wu Mu is all about having topics, effects, and works. It's really the kind of person who can bring positive benefits just by inviting him. If he continues like this, the two sides may cooperate in the future. After thinking for a while, Wu Feng said, "Okay, I'll ask the program team to call you." It's just two million anyway, which is a small amount of money compared to the topic and popularity that Wu Mu brought them, and he doesn't have to pay for it. Wu Mu was very happy as he got his salary and appearance fee. After asking the security leader for the promised lunch box, he left the venue. It's already seven or eight in the evening. Dinner has been arranged, but the accommodation problem has not yet been solved. Just when Lin Qingyue thought that Wu Mu was going to come up with something fancy to find himself a place to sleep, Wu Mu went straight to a five-star hotel in the city center. He had shot a promotional video for this five-star hotel before and knew the manager here. After hearing Wu Mu directly ask his supervisor to book a room for him and ask him to help him experience whether the service has been upgraded recently, Lin Qingyue was speechless. "You are violating the rules." This is the nth time she has said this! Wu Mu was very calm, "It's against the rules, so just deduct 10% of my salary." He is not stupid. Ten percent of his salary is only 16 yuan. If he goes out to stay in a hotel, the cheapest hotel will cost fifty-six yuan. It is not a good deal to spend 16 yuan to stay in a five-star hotel. As for finding a place to sleep on the street or just going to an Internet cafe for a night, there is no need. It's just recording a show, there's no need to work so hard. Besides, it’s only sixteen dollars, and there are still two days left, so it won’t matter if it’s less. Wu Mu stayed comfortably in the five-star hotel until the next day, when he returned to the Shencheng Hotel to meet up with other guests. Wang Xiaotian and a few others were already waiting there. And judging by their mental state, yesterday was clearly not a very good day. Wang Xiaotian, who had been jumping up and down, now looked a little listless. But when he saw Wu Mu, he couldn't help but jump up, "This show is too dark! We are all suffering, and you are the only one enjoying it there!" (End of this chapter)
