28: Chapter 28 798 Forbidden Songs?
Two o'clock in the afternoon.
Cao Mo had finished filming the video.
The video was certainly interesting.
It started with Cao Mo, his black hair messy, wearing a sloppy white tank top and jeans, with his skin covered in black smudges, getting into a van.
As for how he got the black hair, he used a disposable hair dye spray that could be washed off immediately.
When the van's side door slid open, it suddenly started pouring rain, and the vehicle instantly transformed into a Rolls-Royce Phantom. Cao Mo appeared in the back seat, now with white hair and wearing a dapper black suit.
When Cao Mo got out of the car, the frame also captured Brother Tong, who was dressed in a suit.
Brother Tong held an umbrella, standing beside Cao Mo.
The scene froze there.
Yes, Brother Tong was once again acting as a foil for Cao Mo.
The video was very short.
But then again, transition videos are always short.
That was the content; whether it would go viral or not was up to fate.
After the video was finished, Tong Jingchen shot a few more sets of photos and videos for his clothing brand.
Cao Mo smoked Brother Tong's Jipin Jinsheng cigarettes while watching Brother Tong take photos.
While feeling bored, Cao Mo looked at the suit he was wearing and suddenly had an inspiration—there was no point in wasting the venue and the film crew.
So Cao Mo called out to Susu, "Susu, come here for a second."
Susu heard him and immediately trotted over, "What's up?"
"This venue is nice. Can you borrow a piano? I want to shoot another piano video; it matches this suit perfectly. A grand piano would be best," Cao Mo asked.
"That shouldn't be a problem. After all, they can get them for weddings, rehearsals, and performances. It might take a while, though. It'll take at least two or three hours to get it here," Susu replied.
"It's only a little past two now. Three hours from now will be evening, which will have a better mood. That's fine," Cao Mo said.
"OK! I'll go contact them now," Susu responded.
At this moment, Tong Jingchen finished shooting a set of photos and walked over, asking curiously, "What's going on?"
"Nothing! I asked Susu to help me get a piano so I can shoot another piano video," Cao Mo said.
"That works! It won't waste the rented venue and costumes, and the film crew won't have to run around," Tong Jingchen agreed.
"It might take a while to get the piano here, at least until after five," Cao Mo said.
"Then let's go grab something to eat later, and I'll start a Livestreaming session," Tong Jingchen said.
"Sure! I only had some box lunch at noon; I'm starving," Cao Mo replied.
"I didn't eat much of the box lunch at noon either. The box lunches I had when I went to Huicheng before were better; the ones in Hangzhou are really not good," Tong Jingchen said.
"I'm going to go change my clothes first. Wen Bin is driving my G-Wagon over with the phone and tripod for the Livestreaming," Tong Jingchen said.
"The tripod is driving over?" Cao Mo asked.
"Tripod?"
Tong Jingchen didn't react at first, then immediately nodded with a smile, "Right, right! Tripod! From now on, just call Wen Bin 'Tripod.' We can even take him to Guizhou Province and let him be the tripod."
Because of some mess Wen Bin had gotten himself into, he wasn't suitable to do Livestreaming for now, but Tong Jingchen didn't want to give up on him.
Therefore, for this group Livestreaming, Brother Tong intended to let Wen Bin show his face a little to test the waters. It would be perfect to have Wen Bin act as a tripod, appearing in the Livestreaming little by little to help him smooth over the rhythm.
Of course, this also depended on Wen Bin's attitude and performance.
"I'm going to change clothes too. Wearing a suit in this weather is boiling hot," Cao Mo said.
While Tong Jingchen and Cao Mo were still changing clothes, Wen Bin drove the G-Wagon over.
Cao Mo was the first to change into a short-sleeved shirt and shorts and walked over, greeting Wen Bin, "You're here! Brother Bin."
"Don't, just call me Xiao Bin or Xiao Wen. You're Brother Yi!" Wen Bin said immediately.
"Why call him Xiao Bin or Xiao Wen? Call him Tripod!" Tong Jingchen walked over and said.
Wen Bin looked at Tong Jingchen, confused.
"This is what Cao Mo said. You can participate in activities and show your face occasionally, but from now on, you have to be called Tripod. You understand what I mean, right?" Tong Jingchen said to Wen Bin.
Wen Bin had been in the Livestreaming circle for many years and immediately understood what it meant. He quickly reached out with both hands to shake Cao Mo's hand, "I won't say anything else, Brother Yi, thank you."
"No, no, I was just joking. Whether you can make a comeback depends on your future performance," Cao Mo replied.
"Alright, let's go! Let's go get something to eat," Tong Jingchen urged.
Tong Jingchen sat in the driver's seat of the G-Wagon, Cao Mo sat in the passenger seat, and Wen Bin sat behind the back seat, unable to show his face.
After getting in the car, Tong Jingchen turned on the Livestreaming and sent out a broadcast notification.
The Livestream Room immediately started gaining viewers.
"Why aren't you at home today?"
"Isn't today supposed to be a daily vlog?"
"No running today?"
"You started the Livestreaming a bit early!"
"Where are you driving to?"
"Is that my 798 Brother Yi next to you?"
"That's Cao Mo next to you, right?"
Tong Jingchen glanced at the comments while driving, then adjusted the phone angle so that both he and Cao Mo could be in the frame.
Cao Mo immediately greeted the brothers in the Livestream Room, "Hello! Good afternoon, brothers!"
When the audience in the Livestream Room saw that it was really Cao Mo in the passenger seat, the comments immediately started scrolling:
"It really is my 798 Brother Yi!"
"Brother Yi is a regular in Liu Zi's Livestream Room now."
"Liu Zi is riding on Brother Yi's popularity, shameful!"
"Bringing Cao Mo to Livestreaming every day?"
"Really putting a lot of effort into training him! Cao Mo is truly living up to expectations."
"Cao Mo's Livestreaming viewership is almost surpassing Liu Zi's now."
"The main Livestream Room is about to change."
"Brother Yi, do a rap."
Tong Jingchen said at this moment, "We just finished shooting a blockbuster for Brother Yi, and we have to go back to shoot more later."
Cao Mo was already indifferent to being called Brother Yi by them. The more Cao Mo cared, the more excited they got, so it was better to just accept it calmly.
Everyone has a label, and having 798 Brother Yi as one of Cao Mo's labels wasn't bad; it was also a way to attract popularity.
"It's a bit dry! Cao Mo, sing a song!" Tong Jingchen said.
"What song?" Cao Mo asked.
"You choose! Use your phone to connect to the G-Wagon's car system," Tong Jingchen said.
Cao Mo didn't talk nonsense and immediately used his phone to connect to the car system.
After connecting to the car system, Cao Mo hesitated for a moment, then selected a song.
When the intro of the song started playing, Tong Jingchen immediately pressed pause.
"What are you doing?" Tong Jingchen looked at the comments, then looked at Cao Mo.
"I'm not doing anything! Singing!" Cao Mo replied.
The audience in the Livestream Room also reacted:
"Is this anyway?"
"anyway!"
"Holy crap! You dare to sing this song? Worthy of being Brother Yi."
"Can this song even be sung?"
"666, truly worthy of being 798 Brother Yi."
"That's a direct provocation!"
"The remnants of the previous dynasty are ecstatic."
"People don't even dare to play this song now, and you dare to sing it?"
"Is Brother Yi this brave!"
"You even dare to sing the 798 banned song?"
