“Your performance just now was already very good. There’s no need to continue.”
Chen Yu hurriedly stopped the young man.
Even he himself could not withstand the intense mental and visual pollution.
Seeing that Chen Yu didn’t allow him to perform, Xu Yi felt a little disappointed.
“Let’s get back to the main topic.”
Chen Yu shifted the topic to Xu Yi’s condition.
“Just because you feel good about yourself doesn’t mean that you’re really healthy.”
“Mental illness is usually extremely hidden.”
“If you often watch my live broadcasts, you should understand this.”
Xu Yi mumbled, “Those viewers with mental illnesses, didn’t you cause them?”
Chen Yu’s head immediately started hurting.
What a terrible lack of communication skills this boy has!
What did he mean by Chen Yu causing those illnesses?
“Hahaha, look, Dr. Chen is pulling a long face.”
“This is so funny. This is the first time I’ve seen Dr. Chen speechless.”
“A child’s words speak the truth.”
“Everyone who came for Dr. Chen’s consultation always comes in high spirits. They always claimed that they weren’t sick, but in the end, they were all found to be sick.”
“Young man, listen to my advice. Singing and dancing aren’t suitable for you. It’s better for you to flaunt around as a wealthy heir and do nothing.”
“If he can debut and become an idol, so can I.”
“Me too.”
“I think he can become a comedic star with guaranteed success.”
“Sheesh, that mockery stings.”
The chat was filled with joy.
On the one hand, the viewers ridiculed Xu Yi for being unsuitable for the entertainment industry. On the other hand, they advised him to find a school to continue his studies or happily return home to inherit the family business.
Anything is fine, but don’t join the entertainment industry.
The viewers were not professional judges, but they were not blind or deaf either.
Xu Yi’s rap performance almost sent a few of them away to heaven.
If he really got onto a talent show, it would be good if he didn’t get blasted off the stage.
“I also know that 1 need to improve my singing, dancing, and rap skills. Don’t worry, everyone. I’ll receive another year and a half of training, and I guarantee everyone will look at me in a new light.”
“Becoming an idol doesn’t just depend on singing and dancing.”
“My other qualities are also equally great.”
“The company will invest a lot of resources in me after I complete the remaining two sessions of training.”
“With these resources and my personal capabilities, I will definitely become famous and debut in the center position.”
Xu Yi’s face was filled with confidence.
To become a star, one’s personal ability was important, but the company’s support was usually the deciding factor.
It had been more than a year since Xu Yi entered the company for training.
From the owner to the manager to the talent scout, everyone was full of praise for his capabilities.
“Dr. Chen, tell me quickly. How can 1 get money from my father?”
Thinking that he was about to go viral, Xu Yi’s tone was filled with urgency.
“It’s not that your dad doesn’t want to pay for you to continue practicing,” Chen Yu said, frowning. “It’s just that he’s already out of money.”
“Impossible.”
Xu Yi’s face was filled with disbelief.
“He’s a businessman. How can he not have money?”
“Dr. Chen, do you think that the treatment fee 1 paid is too little, so you’re deliberately patronizing me?”
“How about this? Tell me the method first.”
“After this call, I’ll think of a way to sell my sneakers and get 10,000 yuan to transfer to you.”
Xu Yi said, “I don’t believe that he doesn’t have money.”
“The business you’re talking about is your dad opening a small fruit stall at the entrance of your neighborhood, right?” Chen Yu asked.
“Yeah.”
“There are a lot of people who go to the stall to buy fruits every day,” Xu Yi said.
“Every time 1 go in and out, 1 always see a long line of customers.”
“Business is so good; how can we not have money?”
Xu Yi was certain that Chen Yu was deliberately brushing him off.
While answering Chen Yu’s question, he took out his phone and prepared to contact buyers to sell his sneakers to earn ten thousand yuan for this consultation.
“Your father’s fruit stall is indeed doing very well, but no matter how good it is, it can’t stop your excessive demand.”
Chen Yu’s voice gradually turned cold.
“When you were a few years old, your mother passed away due to illness.”
“In order to create good living conditions for you and your sister, your father went to work every day before dawn and only closed his fruit stall when the moon was high in the sky.”
“Yes, yes, yes, that’s right.” Xu Yi quickly nodded.
“Dr. Chen, you’re really amazing. You even know that 1 have a sister.”
“When you got older,” Chen Yu continued, “Like most young people, you became obsessed with collecting sneakers.”
“This hobby alone has almost consumed half of your family’s savings.”
“As you said, you took a selfie on the street one day and met a celebrity scout.”
“The scout kept praising you and strongly invited you to the company to show off your talents.”
“With their constant praise, you dreamt of becoming a celebrity.”
“You pestered your father and paid the first 88,000 yuan for your training.”
“Your father has already spent all his money on two training sessions.”
“Like all parents, your father also hopes you will succeed and supports you in doing what you want.”
“Now, your family only has tens of thousands of yuan left.”
“The current conditions no longer allow him to continue paying for your fourth training session.”
Pausing momentarily, Chen Yu picked up his glass and took a sip.
Then, he talked about Xu Yi’s father’s fruit stall and why so many customers visited it daily.
“Your father has a disabled foot. Many customers buy his fruits out of sympathy.”
“In addition, the fruits your father sells are of good quality and cheap. That’s why you saw a large number of customers queuing up every day.”
The viewers were shocked.
They thought he was a wealthy heir when they saw Xu Yi wearing branded sneakers and a limited-edition T-shirt.
Not one of them expected that he was just a child from an ordinary family.
“The heir of a poor family. LOL.”
“Nowadays, some parents insist on raising their children as if they were rich, even though their family conditions are obviously ordinary.”
“This little bastard is a vampire.”
“I once wanted to be a painter. My mother said that a painter can only become famous after death, so I gave up.”
“I finally understand why everyone in the company keeps praising him. It turns out they’re the same as us, treating him like a wealthy heir.”
Faced with the chat’s ridicule, Xu Yi said indifferently, “Teacher told me that if
I want to become a celebrity, I have to invest and package myself.”
“These are the necessary stages before becoming famous.”
“When I debut in the center position and become an idol in the future, 1 will double the money my father spent on me.”
Then, Xu Yi moved closer to the screen and asked, “Dr. Chen, you said my family still has tens of thousands of yuan in savings.”
“If the difference isn’t too big, I can sell all my remaining sneakers, and I should be able to make up for it.”
“There are less than 30,000 left,” Chen Yu said with a cold expression.
“Your father left this money for your sister to attend high school. Are you sure you want to use it?”
“My sister’s school money can’t be touched.”
Xu Yi thought about it with a conflicted expression and said, “If that’s the case, we can only sell the house..”
