Chapter 1240 1340. Acting on behalf of Heaven, good deeds will be rewarded and evil deeds will be pu
Zheng Shuang felt that she acted in this scene very ignorantly, and acted completely according to Nie Wei's requirements. After the performance, she felt that it was not very good, but Nie Wei approved it.
One day later, the MV was edited and Nie Wei asked Zheng Shuang to watch it.
The full version of this MV is a full sixteen minutes, but the version used in the Stars Music Festival is only five and a half minutes. Nie Wei naturally showed Zheng Shuang the full version.
From beginning to end, Zheng Shuang watched it very seriously.
Especially the last part where the girl jumped off the building, Zheng Shuang stared at the screen without blinking. On the one hand, she wanted to know how she acted, and on the other hand, she also wanted to know what Nie Wei filmed this part like and what he wanted to express.
This part was not long, just a dozen seconds, and it passed in a flash.
Zheng Shuang's eyes were moistened. After watching the last moment, tears rolled down. After watching the whole MV, she finally understood why she had to hold hope in the end, not despair, because sometimes hope is more despairing than despair in the eyes of others.
After watching the entire MV with the soundtrack, Zheng Shuang became depressed for several days.
At this moment, Alan in Sakura Country also received the finished MV. After watching it, all the musicians in the company unanimously decided to make a new album for Alan based on this song.
"This will definitely be the best-selling album this year, I guarantee it!" A musician said loudly in the conference room.
Sakura Country is a country with the highest suicide rate in the world. It once occupied the first place in the world for a long time. The whole nation has always been pessimistic. This can be seen from news interviews.
This is also why the protagonists in Sakura Country's entertainment culture, including comics, TV dramas, etc., are all the kind of hot-blooded characters, because they yearn for what they lack.
After all the musicians in the company listened to this song, the first reaction was that this song resonated too much with the locals, especially the core of it is school bullying, which is also a problem that many schools in Sakura Country cannot escape.
Zheng Shuang did not participate in the heated discussion of this group of people. After watching the MV, she called Minako and asked her to gather her schedule and Alan to return to China as soon as possible.
Baoxian College is a private middle school located near Alan's home. Nishimiya was a student there.
Nishimiya's death did not seem to have much impact on this college. Except for the discussion in the class where Nishigong was in the first two days, it did not set off much of a wave.
Everyone went to school and went home normally. Nishimiya was like a drop of water falling into the sea and was forgotten unknowingly.
Of course, there are also people who can't forget, such as Nishimiya's good friend Sakurai, like those children who were bullied like Nishimiya, and of course Shimizu, Takahashi, Suzune and others who bullied Nishimiya.
When they first learned that Nishimiya jumped off the building, these girls were really scared.
They couldn't imagine why a girl who was bullied without saying a word on weekdays would have the courage to jump from such a high place.
They were afraid that Nishimiya's family would cause trouble for them, and they were also afraid that they would be punished by the school. They were even more afraid that they would be involved in a lawsuit or even be imprisoned because of Nishimiya's death.
After a few days of panic, except for the teacher who called them to the office and scolded them at the beginning, and asked them to write a letter of apology, the things they were worried about did not happen at all.
Nishimiya's mother did come to the school, but was directly invited by the school teacher to the conference room to talk for a long time, and then left.
When the teacher found them again, he only gave a few people a demerit, and then told everyone that they didn't even need to write a letter of repentance, but just asked them to restrain themselves in the future and forget about this matter.
When they returned home, although their parents also taught them a lesson, the girls defended themselves and pushed the faults onto Nishimiya, and finally it didn't hurt at all and was hastily dismissed.
None of them were even beaten, and they were just scolded a few words.
When the girls felt that they had overcome the difficulties, their fear turned into anger. They began to blame Nishimiya privately, thinking that it was her fault that the girls were reprimanded and punished recently. Later, they even began to speak ill of Nishimiya in public in class, describing Nishimiya as a cowardly fool.
Sakurai had a big fight with them for this.
Fortunately, Sakurai was the main point guard of the school basketball team. Her tall figure made her look difficult to bully. Although the girls were annoyed with Sakurai, they did not dare to do anything to her. They only dared to curse her behind her back. This was a typical case of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
"Recently, Takeuchi from Class C2 has not paid the protection fee twice. Sisters, should we teach her a profound lesson?"
As soon as Takahashi finished speaking, someone immediately echoed: "Of course, at least let her know that in this school, she must listen to us and give us the money we ask for!"
"That's right, we'll teach her a lesson at noon."
"She must have thought we were finished, so she defaulted on the protection fee. We must teach her a profound lesson and also serve as a warning to the monkeys."
Everyone was making a lot of noise on the rooftop, and they all looked very excited.
In fact, most of them had good family conditions, especially the leaders, whose families were either officials or owned companies, and they had no shortage of material life.
Sometimes, the little protection fee they collected in school in a month could not even buy a pair of shoes for them, but they still enjoyed it. The reason was very simple, because they enjoyed the fun of bullying others. As someone said, they built their own fun on the pain of others.
Looking at the fearful eyes of others, they would feel special, just like Oguri Shun in the hot-blooded high school, majestic and domineering, as if the whole school was controlled by them.
The feeling of being awed by everyone made the girls feel very good, and therefore they liked to bully their classmates more and more.
At noon, these female bullies came to Class C2 and poured all the food in the lunch box of the girl Takeuchi on the ground. In front of many classmates, they directly threatened Takeuchi to make up for what she forgot tomorrow.
"Remember, tomorrow morning, if I don't see your protection fee, it will not be as simple as letting your lunch fall on the ground. I will put it on your head. Do you understand?" Takahashi, the leader of the group of girls, threatened viciously.
Takeuchi's eyes were blurred with tears, and he was panicked and nodded tremblingly.
"Don't even think about telling the teacher. You know what happened to Nishimiya in the end, right? If you think it's useful to tell the teacher, just go ahead and tell the teacher, but you will also have to bear the consequences of telling the teacher." Before the group of people left, a girl named Suzuki threatened Takeuchi in a low voice in her ear.
Takeuchi's face turned pale, and after staring blankly at the group of people leaving, she couldn't help crying.
At this time, Takeuchi's friends dared to come over. Some whispered to comfort Takeuchi, and some helped her tidy up the mess on the desk and the floor.
Some classmates in the class watched coldly and turned a blind eye, thinking that since this didn't happen to them, they naturally didn't need to care. Some people even gloated over Takeuchi's experience and laughed at her.
That afternoon, the news that Takahashi, Suzuki and others threatened Takeuchi in Class C2 spread throughout the campus. Everyone knew that the group of female bullies were back, especially the students who had been bullied by this group of people before. They all felt trembling and worried all day long.
Especially the last words that Suzuki threatened Takeuchi were spread, which made Takahashi and his gang more unscrupulous.
Takahashi and others saw the effect of half a day. In fact, the spread was so fast because they promoted it themselves. Takahashi was very satisfied with the result. She was just waiting for Takeuchi's protection fee to arrive tomorrow, and she was going to take her sisters to the underground bar near the school to celebrate.
Takahashi thought happily, but when she returned home, she suddenly found that the atmosphere at home was not right.
In the past, because of the busy business and social activities, it was considered good for parents to show up two or three days a week, and except for major holidays, the two of them rarely went home together, but today the two of them appeared at home at the same time without any warning.
It sounds funny, but it is the fact that the parents came home, which really surprised Takahashi.
Moreover, the father who always put on a majestic look at home on weekdays was talking to someone on the phone at this moment, with a humble and flattering tone, just like those little followers who always like to flatter on weekdays.
What made her even more flustered was that her mother was secretly wiping away tears, looking very sad.
Takahashi greeted them carefully. At home, she had always been a good kid in her parents' eyes. That was why she could easily convince her parents about Nishimiya's affairs, because her parents did not believe that their well-behaved daughter at home would be the kind of person who would bully her classmates.
Her father just glanced at Takahashi and went to the study to continue talking on the phone, while her mother wiped away her tears and asked Takahashi what she wanted to eat.
"It's okay, mother, what's wrong with you? Have you encountered any difficulties?" Takahashi asked.
"It's okay, you are a student, just focus on studying, and we will have grilled fish and curry rice tonight." Takahashi's mother smiled reluctantly, as perfunctorily as she could, and then ran to the kitchen, apparently not considering whether Takahashi wanted to eat these.
Takahashi felt that something must have happened to her parents, and it might be very bad.
When she was resting at night, Takahashi secretly came to the door of her parents' bedroom to eavesdrop.
"What should we do? The upper-level supplier suddenly ran out of stock. What's the reason?"
"I've already asked around. They said they'll give me a reply tomorrow morning. Let's wait a little longer."
"Wait? We can't wait. If the supplier doesn't give us raw materials, how can we produce goods?"
"Didn't the factory also store a batch of raw materials?"
"It's not enough. There have been a lot of orders recently. I checked it out. Our raw material storage can only complete a quarter of the orders at most. What about the rest? If we can't get enough raw materials in the next two days, we will face the problem of breach of contract. At that time, all our struggles in this half of our life will be in vain."
"Why don't I ask again? Alas..."
Takahashi returned to her bedroom in a daze. She knew that her parents were in big trouble, but those troubles were not something she could solve. She didn't feel worried. She went to school and bullied her classmates on weekdays. During this period, her pocket money was always sufficient, and she gradually forgot about it.
Of course, other things that affected Takahashi did happen during this period, such as her friend Suzuki, who seemed worried in recent days, but she didn't tell Takahashi when she asked her the reason.
Until a week later, her parents returned home in despair and told Takahashi that they were moving.
"Why move?" Takahashi was dumbfounded and asked puzzled.
"Because our family went bankrupt, we have to sell this house to pay back the money." Takahashi's father replied dejectedly.
Bankruptcy? Takahashi felt that this word was unfamiliar, but at this moment it clearly appeared in her life dictionary, but Takahashi could not understand what these two words would bring to her for a while, and she didn't know that it would be her last night in the villa.
The next morning, Takahashi went to school as usual, but found that her friend Suzuki didn't come.
At first, she thought Suzuki was sick, until two days later, Suzuki suddenly came to school to clean up the desk. Takahashi was shocked and learned that Suzuki was going to drop out of school.
Until Suzuki left, Takahashi didn't know why she suddenly transferred schools, until someone told her that Suzuki transferred schools because her father was reported for corruption and investigated. Suzuki's family was ruined, most of the property was confiscated, and naturally there was no money for her to go to such a private school. Transferring schools was her only way out.
Knowing the reason, Takahashi felt dizzy all day and had no intention of bullying classmates. Until the last class, the door of the classroom was suddenly kicked open violently. Takahashi was awakened and looked up to see a familiar figure.
Takahashi subconsciously wanted to speak, but before he could open his mouth, the figure had rushed in front of Takahashi, raised his hand and slapped him hard.
Snap!
A huge noise, a painful cheek, Takahashi's eyes were dull, and he couldn't believe that name...father.
Sakurai was not far away, happily recording the whole scene with his mobile phone, and then edited it into an email and sent it to a mailbox.
She also wanted to show this video to Nishimiya's mother, so that her aunt would know that those who had bullied Nishimiya would be punished.
And she also knew that this was just the beginning.
After returning to Kyoto, Alan immediately threw herself into rehearsals. Although it was just a variety show, it was such a meaningful song at such a large music festival, so she rehearsed with a very professional attitude.
The requirements for the stage were also raised to the top level.
But this also caused some trouble, because Alan's requirements were too high, which naturally put a lot of pressure on several non-professionals in the team.
