I Really Didn’t Want to be a Savior

Chen Feng decisively changed his mind and went back to his room to sort out all the more than ten songs he had taken the time to write down. Then he waited anxiously for the time when the serum would expire.

Three and a half hours passed.

More than three hours had passed through his body, but he did not fall asleep.

Nothing has changed, it's as if he was already in this state.

It means that the effect of the serum has been solidified on him and become normal.

After experiencing a brief period of excitement and ecstasy, and taking a cold shower, Chen Feng, the "stable" contestant who remained calm despite the collapse of the mountain, began to do some intelligence tests on himself.

After about two hours, he completed several sets of IQ test papers and came to a conclusion.

On a certain level, I have become smarter.

The extremely high level of concentration and the more excited brain response when actively thinking made his thinking speed faster and he could get the answers he wanted more quickly.

Some conventional calculations, such as mental arithmetic, oral arithmetic and other logical analysis abilities, have also been comprehensively strengthened.

Of course, he has not become the kind of weirdo who can rival Einstein by reading a college physics textbook on quantum fluctuations in movies and TV shows.

He is still a mortal, and he still can't do things he didn't know before.

If you want to change from not knowing to being able, you still need to learn. His ability to understand a new thing has not been improved, but his thinking speed has been improved.

Gifted children in mathematics learn simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. They only need to read the questions once, and they can quickly understand the principles of calculation by drawing inferences in their minds. They will naturally understand all the questions within their knowledge system.

Ordinary children need continuous intensive training once, twice, or even more times to form mathematical concepts in their minds.

This is the gap in understanding.

Chen Feng's intelligence is still at the level where he needs multiple intensive trainings to understand new knowledge, but after his thinking becomes faster, perhaps in the eyes of others, he can understand it at a glance.

But in fact, he also needed to repeat and consolidate it many times before he could understand it, but the speed was too fast, and the time it took to repeat it several times was basically the same as that of others who understood it once.

The results may seem the same, but there are essential differences inside.

In short, let him learn a new course now. Because of his improved concentration and sharp thinking, he will only need to spend half or even less of the time he used to take, but he still has to learn.

Things that he could never learn before are still impossible to learn now.

IQ is a very comprehensive concept, including the upper limit of learning speed and understanding ability. The coagulation serum accelerated his learning speed, but did not increase the upper limit of his understanding ability.

Delayed all morning because of the mutation, he changed his itinerary again, and after taking the intelligence test, he went straight to Zhonghai.

It wouldn't be too late to sign a contract with Albert Ou when he came back, but Zhong Lei couldn't delay.

Every minute you take it every night means you have one more chance of something going wrong.

What if Zhong Lei sent him the first draft of the arrangement of "Bathing in Fire" like a treasure halfway through and asked him to taste it, then he would be in trouble every day.

Do you think I copied it? Or copy it?

This may seem like a small thing, just a song, but it will completely disrupt Chen Feng's plan.

Because of the changes "Bathing in Fire" brought to Xuanwu Academy, Chen Feng deeply realized the important role that excellent works of art play in the progress of human civilization.

Good works of art, whether literature, music, or painting, can leave a spiritual power.

It was food, a torch that could be used to light the way forward as civilization stumbled and groped in the darkness.

Nowadays, the times have become impetuous, songs have become slobbery, and stars live behind hypocritical personas. Such works are not qualified to be called works. They are just entertainment born to cater to the entertainment needs of others.

Ignoring the essence of works and talents and relying on hype and marketing to create false personalities is an entertainment phenomenon that emerged in the early days of the information age.

This phenomenon will be born and rise due to the vigorous development of the Internet era, and will reach its peak at a certain stage, allowing a large group of people to make a lot of money.

However, as the times change, the informatization process further deepens, and information becomes more explosive, these waste-like redundant information will be buried in the ocean of information, never making any waves.

Only truly good works will be remembered and truly show their value.

Waste entertainment was born due to the popularization of information technology, and will die due to the success of information technology.

Chen Feng looked back at the process from the results and knew that this was a crooked path and would not go far.

He doesn't care how other people go. He just wants to take the path he chooses now.

Therefore, the ultimate form of entertainment culture is culture, not entertainment.

Only after seeing the future could Chen Feng understand how valuable Zhong Lei is now.

She can create works of historical value.

In her songs, she attacks the unfair, unreasonable, sarcastic, twisted, dirty, inspiring and promoting the positive.

Even though she sometimes embeds her own negative emotions into her works, those negative songs can still pry open the defenses of weak people and awaken their motivation to become better and improve themselves.

Her songs can teach others how to face their own weaknesses correctly and how to fight against the weakness and ugliness in their own human nature, which is beneficial to the development of civilization.

This example is too profound. Let’s use a simpler explanation.

Take Aamir Khan's movies for example.

"Wrestle!" The theme of the movie "Dad" is to cry out for women who are treated unfairly in a certain country.

If the male head of a family who originally despised women was inspired by this movie, he decided to give his little daughter a fair chance to learn.

Then this little daughter who could only be used as a dowry tool successfully completed her studies, became an excellent scholar, and left behind a technology that gave birth to a discipline a hundred years later?

Then the impact of this movie is far-reaching enough to last for thousands of years.

Perhaps no one knows the original relationship between this rigorous discipline and a movie, but this butterfly effect-like cause and effect exists objectively.

Therefore, although Chen Feng has already coveted future technology, he still refuses to give up the path of copying songs, which he initially thought was a shortcut to making a fortune, but later discovered that it was a shortcut to changing history.

Direct handling technology is an intuitive change to the future.

But moving works of art and squeezing Zhong Lei's potential is a broader and far-reaching change in the future.

These are two paths that complement each other. Chen Feng must grasp it with both hands and be strong with both hands.

Copying songs is just the beginning, he still has a lot to do.

Maybe the road ahead was long and there was no end in sight, but he decided to persevere until the end of his life, just like what Brother Hu once told him and what he himself said in a certain timeline.

The plane arrived at Zhonghai and entered the terminal hall. Chen Feng turned on his mobile phone and received a call from Zhong Lei.

Before getting on the plane, he had already contacted Zhong Lei once and told her that he had prepared a "surprise" for her today.

"Have you gotten off the plane?"

On the phone, Zhong Lei's voice sounded a little tired. She had been spinning a lot recently and couldn't breathe.

But there is a hint of excitement and excitement in her exhaustion. As long as she is making music, she enjoys it no matter how tired she is.

Chen Feng responded: "Yes, I will take a taxi over right now. You should also take a break. Don't be too tired."

Zhong Lei yawned, "I'm sleeping in the car. Don't take a taxi. I'm taking my junior sister's car to the airport. Her brother also came back from abroad today, and the flight time is about the same as yours. I'll pick her brother up and pick you up too. . There’s a little traffic in the city, but we’ll get on the expressway soon, and we’ll be there in half an hour at the latest, oh no, twenty minutes.”

Chen Feng was stunned and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

He wasn't moved because Zhong Lei was coming to pick him up, it was something else.

He asked anxiously: "Well, the junior sister you are talking about is your assistant in the recording studio here, Meng Wanyue, right?"

Zhong Lei said in surprise: "Hey, how did you know?"

Chen Feng forced himself to calm down and spoke faster, saying, "I have seen this name in the credits of the song "Boring" before."

At the same time, he had already taken big steps and ran towards the door of the terminal hall.

"Oh, right. You know I don't have many friends. Wanyue is one of the few friends I have in school. I can only produce songs here in Zhonghai thanks to her help."

Another cheerful voice rang on the phone.

"Ah! Sister Leilei, are we just friends? I feel so sad when you say that!"

Zhong Lei: "Don't make trouble, you are driving."

"Okay, I'm very skilled. Hello, brother Feng! I'm Meng Wanyue, you can just call me Wanyue! I'm Sister Leilei's crazy fan, and I've never been so convinced by someone in my life! Sister Lei is also your crazy fan, Brother Feng, so Brother Feng, you are my super...super super idol! I adore you to death!"

Zhong Lei: "Okay, okay, don't talk anymore, just wait for us."

The person on the other end hung up the phone.

Chen Feng quickly called back and at the same time ran like crazy in the crowd, shouting and yelling all the way.

But he couldn't care less.

Because of the high-speed running, the blood in his body that had become much thicker than ordinary people due to coagulation serum gradually boiled, and large drops of sweat fell from his temples.

Meng Wanyue's cheerful joke was echoing repeatedly in his mind, but his mood was like falling into an ice cave.

It was the voice of the dead.

The last time she passed by, Meng Wanyue died in a car accident.

Today, she was driving to the airport to pick up her brother on the airport expressway!

In the previous timeline, Zhong Lei was busy arranging music in the recording studio today.

Meng Wanyue, who had been working overtime with Zhong Lei for nearly ten consecutive days, drove her BMW X3 to the airport to pick her up.

Later, the vehicle lost control and rushed down the viaduct of the airport expressway. It quickly caught fire after landing. The driver, Meng Wanyue, died on the spot.

This incident had a great impact on Zhong Lei and touched her deeply.

Twenty years later, she came up with an extremely sad song to commemorate her only close friend.

From the day after Meng Wanyue's death, she began to brew this song in her heart, and it took her twenty years to finally complete it.

This song's status in Zhong Lei's artistic career is even inferior to "Bathing in Fire". In the following thousand years, it was often used as a mourning music at funerals.

When he saw this incident in Zhong Lei's new biography, Chen Feng was also a little sad, and even seriously considered whether to intervene and change this incident after returning.

He made the ruthless decision not to intervene.

But he didn't expect that because of his temporary change of decision and the delay in the morning, Zhong Lei would be involved.

If she had set off earlier, her arrival time in Zhonghai would be at least a few hours behind Meng Wanyue's brother, and Zhong Lei would not have taken a car to the airport.

If she didn't come to Zhonghai today but the day after tomorrow instead, Zhong Lei would have no reason to get in Meng Wanyue's car.

If I hadn't chosen to cheat on her face because I wasn't worried about being too deliberate and arousing suspicion, but instead called her to play guitar and sing, this wouldn't have happened.

But things have already happened, there is no if.

People were coming and going in the airport hall, and Chen Feng, who was walking through the crowd, even vaguely smelled a cold malice in the air.

Is this my own willful attempt to change the future, and is it being counterattacked by time and space?

He didn't even have time to regret, and regret would not help.

In just thirteen seconds, he crossed a distance of nearly 100 meters and rushed out of the airport hall.

The phone is still in the dialing interface.

He was distraught.

Answer the phone quickly!

Answer the phone!

No, don't panic. I'm really calm, beyond your imagination. There is no risk of the book being unfinished or cut off. You may not believe it when I tell you, but I have already had three cuts this year. It’s just a bad year. But the strange thing is that the lower I get, the calmer I feel inside. It's like a Buddhist feeling of peace before enlightenment. I have given up all unrealistic fantasies and all the unwillingness to force myself to create, leaving only the tranquility of wanting to write a good story. You can understand it this way. Well, I became a Buddha.
