This celebrity became even more popular after being exposed of having multiple girlfriends-Chapter 344 - 286: With Such Talent, You Come to Be a Star?

Chapter 344: Chapter 286: With Such Talent, You Come to Be a Star?

After the cameraman recorded Wu Mu’s statement, Lin Qingyue also smiled and waved to the camera, "Let me test Teacher Wu Mu for everyone."

She picked up the Japanese textbook Wu Mu had placed on the table, "How far have you gotten?"

"Lesson seventeen in grammar."

Lin Qingyue flipped to the seventeenth grammar lesson, then paused slightly—over two hundred pages, had he flipped through half the book?

"You bought the book yesterday, and today you’ve reached over two hundred pages?" She regarded Wu Mu with a strange look.

Wu Mu smiled faintly, "How else would I finish learning it in twenty days? Actually, it’s not too bad; I remember most of it after flipping through once, then I listen to the lessons online, and that’s pretty much it."

Flip through the book once, listen to the lessons once, and that’s it?

Lin Qingyue’s gaze at Wu Mu grew increasingly peculiar.

Looking at the content in her hand, she asked directly, "How do you say ’What do you want’ in Japanese?"

"あなたは何が欲しいですか?"

Lin Qingyue didn’t understand, but... it did sound like it was correct!

"I want to watch a movie?" she prodded further.

"私は林監督の映画を見たいです," Wu Mu continued.

Unable to resist, Lin Qingyue glanced at Wu Mu, then flipped to the earlier sections of the book, randomly picking content to question him.

But... the more she asked, the more she felt something was off.

"You really know it?"

Lin Qingyue couldn’t help but ask.

Wu Mu spread his hands, "Of course."

"Studied it before?"

"Do I look that bored?"

Well, who could be sure!

Lin Qingyue thought to herself, but the look she gave Wu Mu was as if she was seeing him for the first time.

Wu Mu’s learning ability was this strong?

Online there had always been discussions about just how Wu Mu knew so much.

After all, there was his English, his Russian, songwriting and singing abilities, game development and programming skills, and even self-studying university courses.

For a teen idol who dropped out of junior high, isn’t that a little too talented?

And yet, in private, Wu Mu seemed not to spend much time studying at all; with various live streams and candid fan shots, he always appeared to be a carefree idler.

How exactly did he know so much had always been an unsolved mystery discussed by many online.

Has the case finally been cracked, the truth revealed?

So, he was indeed playing around every day, but because his talent was just that bit too strong, even just casually learning for a very small fraction of time was enough to outdo others?

What kind of top-tier student reincarnation are you?

With such talent, why become a celebrity?

The main cameraman, Lou Ziwen, couldn’t help but ask, "You really get it just by looking and listening once?"

"Of course!"

Wu Mu said confidently.

Now he was just that strong!

This language genius buff was even more useful than he had imagined; in terms of language learning, it was practically photographic memory combined with super comprehension abilities.

Flipping through the book once, he could completely remember the contents—it was the kind of comprehensive retention—and after listening to the audio once, he could understand how those contents were pronounced in Japanese.

No wonder the reward evaluation said three months was enough time to learn the world’s mainstream languages.

"Shall I find a random article to test you?"

Hmm?

Suspecting the noble of what the petty would do?

With great confidence, Wu Mu gestured, "Show me."

Spending just under two minutes, Wu Mu finished reading and listening to the Japanese article tutorial that Lou Ziwen had casually found. Then, he told Lou Ziwen to go ahead and ask questions.

And then the result...

"Gao Peng, you don’t have to do anything else for this period, just focus on filming Wu Mu’s learning process. When the time comes, we should broadcast this footage as a promotional video and it will be a huge hit," Lou Ziwen seriously told the cameraman he had spoken to previously.

It was absurd. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Could Wu Mu really watch and listen to something once and then know it, never forgetting anything?

Lou Ziwen found it hard to believe, but the article was truly one that he had randomly picked. It couldn’t be that he and Wu Mu had colluded beforehand, could it?

Or could it be that Wu Mu had already known Japanese and was pretending not to here?

But it didn’t matter because next were Korean, French, and German.

Surely he couldn’t have already known those languages.

Even if he had known them all along, along with Russian and English... It would be too far-fetched for a celebrity to know six languages.

Wu Mu’s interlude had so distracted everyone that they could hardly focus on filming; they would occasionally come over to check on Wu Mu’s progress.

"Unbelievable, he has already finished the first volume. How long has it been, is this real or fake?"

"I’ve heard about those academic stars in the industry being just marketing ploys, but is Wu Mu for real?"

"If this gets out, imagine how much popularity and how many fans it would bring him, a superstar academic?"

"Well, that’s not certain; it might end up like when he plays games, with everyone calling for him to quit the business and go into academia. With that kind of talent, it’s a sheer waste of heaven’s gifts to be a celebrity."

"Now I’m really curious, what on earth happened in Wu Mu’s family? With such talent, how could they let him drop out in middle school? If I had that kind of talent, my dad would sell blood if he had to, just to keep me in school; and if I dared say I didn’t want to study, I’m pretty sure the belt would come off instantly."

Everyone watched as Wu Mu’s progress sped up, and by not even the end of the morning, he had already finished the first volume.

That cameraman named Gao Peng was indeed coming over every now and then to capture some behind-the-scenes footage.

With such a sensational topic, think of the popularity it could bring; even if they were working on an art film, no one would mind having too large a box office.

Wu Mu himself was learning very arduously.

He wanted to sit down and rest, slump over to play some games, mess around on his phone!

But... seeing the malicious countdown of the reward status on the system panel disappearing second by second, he thought better of it. He’d just endure.

Wu Mu buried himself in his studies, until it was time for the crew to start filming Lin Qingyue’s scenes, at which point he couldn’t help but pause.

What would Director Lin be like as an actor?

He had only seen Lin Qingyue as a director and couldn’t imagine what she would be like as an actor.

Especially since the character in the story had a personality quite different from Lin Qingyue’s.

The character in the story was gentle and serene, generally a more vulnerable person.

But Lin Qingyue was calm, composed, capable, independent – obviously a strong character in contrast.

Lin Qingyue soon got ready and came in.

She had makeup on and wore a wig.

Her short hair had been transformed into shoulder-length flowing locks, and instead of her usual light-colored down jacket, she wore a pink coat over a white dress.

Lin Qingyue twirled in her dress in front of Wu Mu and asked with a smile, "What do you think?"

Wu Mu pondered for a moment, "It’s kind of weird, I’ve rarely seen you dress like this."

Lin Qingyue gave him a pat, "Didn’t you see me in a dress in the photo from my birthday shoot?"

"That was when you were five, there’s no connection to you now."

"You still remember, oh right, I forgot you have a photographic memory," Lin Qingyue said with a smile in her eyes.

"It’s not a photographic memory, I just have a better feel for languages," Wu Mu quickly waved it off; he certainly wasn’t going to pretend to have an ability he couldn’t back up.

Lin Qingyue was done with her makeup, and the set was also ready.

"Cameras ready!"

The usually silent assistant director, Feng Shang, temporarily took over Lin Qingyue’s work.

The scene was similar to the one Wu Mu had shot earlier, with the female protagonist Xiaoli standing in front of the classroom to introduce herself under the teacher’s guidance.

Wu Mu was still thinking about how Director Lin would act out a character whose personality didn’t match her own. Would it be like when he acted as himself?

Lin Qingyue, wearing the pink coat and white dress, stood at the lectern with her hands in front of her, struggling to keep her face taut, but clearly looking nervous and timid.
