The Superstar Trainee

So here's the question: why did he quit after four years? Did he offend some bigwig?

From the author's few words, I learned that Chen Ze spent those four years pursuing further studies—dance, piano, everything. He went to refine his skills. But here's the question: if he was just pursuing advanced studies, why didn't he say so beforehand? Why did he have to bear the infamy and leave without a word? So, he deserved his fate. Seeing this, I almost didn't want to read any further; it felt a bit cruel.

There was too much conspiracy and nonsense. I skipped through the whole thing. It didn't express what it wanted to say, and instead contained a lot of useless stuff.

I've noticed many works these days are getting too sentimental. Not long ago, there was this book called "Returning from Teaching in a Rural Area," which I found incredibly fake and immediately removed from my bookshelf. This book is also nearing its end. It's simple: you don't have that experience, and you're just making it up—it's uncomfortable to read.

This kind of mindless trainee-back move reminds me of a book: the protagonist already has three NBA championships, but after three years, he chooses to retire and switch to the entertainment industry, going to South Korea to become some kind of crappy trainee, ready to start over, break out of Asia, go global, and finally enter Hollywood. Seeing this brainless premise makes me feel suffocated.

The author should consider the plausibility. With over 20 million fans and two hugely successful albums, it's unlikely they'd pull such a stunt as a trainee. If they offended someone, they wouldn't be going it alone; they'd be joining a company they could compete with. If they offended someone with a powerful backer, the show wouldn't dare let them on.

Actually, when listening to songs, not many people actually imagine the scenes described in the lyrics; most of what they listen to is the melody.

I'm outta here... I can't stand it anymore.

This exit, no matter how the author explains it afterward, doesn't feel right.

1. A hero saves a damsel in distress, offending a spoiled high-ranking executive at an entertainment company! 2. Copyright disputes! 3. I can't stand it! Talented yet willful! 4. Family reasons! 5. Personal health issues, relationship problems, or system requirements, etc.! 6. A sudden inspiration! There are others, everyone think about them!
