Chapter 188 – 150 The Recording of “I Am the King of Song” Begins
“How did he die?” Xu Qingyan hesitated before asking.
“Died of illness, money spent but the person couldn’t be saved,” Zhang Hongi said, “left behind a daughter who wants to apply for a student loan to attend university, but relatives refuse to be guarantors.”
Upon hearing of the death from illness, he couldn’t help but fall silent for a mont.
If he hadn’t been on that romance reality show, he also wouldn’t have been able to raise the money for his mom’s dical expenses. He could only say he was extrely fortunate…..
“Mom, you decide on this matter, just don’t get scamd, that’s all.”
“That won’t happen, I’ve inquired about it,” Zhang Hongi said, “That child is also well-known to us. I reckon it’s a pity for the kid to pass up on such a good university, where the tuition isn’t expensive.”
“This money is after all earned by you, I hesitated for a long ti, consider the money as loaned.”
The sunset was robust, the setting sun intense.
“Hmm, it’s okay,” Xu Qingyan prepared to leave the composition studio, shutting down his computer with a casual tone, “Whatever works, if I can offer any help, then I’ll help.”
“Mom, just have soone handle it, our family isn’t short of that little money, don’t worry about . Yeah, I know, you take care of yourself too, I’ll call you again in a few days.”
After hastily ending the call, Xu Qingyan went back to the office to get his car keys and headed downstairs.
He wasn’t too concerned about these matters, as long as Zhang Taihou was happy, anything was fine. It was also thanks to the help of relatives taking care that he was able to travel and earn money.
Having many brothers can be a good thing, but sotis it’s not. For instance, regarding Uncle Li, the old lady didn’t elaborate over the phone, but he was clear in his mind that probably Uncle Li had been swindled completely.
What was Uncle Li’s daughter’s na again, Li…..
He had only seen the carved jade-like little girl from a distance in his childhood, clearly not a child from the countryside. The mory of her face had already grown quite hazy, Li Yang?
It should be, he couldn’t rember too clearly.
The following day.
Jianye Airport.
After landing, the two went to retrieve their luggage together.
Pei Muchan’s face was obscured by sunglasses and a mask, a baseball cap covering her head, her slender figure an exceptional presence wherever she went, attracting quite a bit of attention along the way.
Xu Qingyan wore the sa type of cap, his mask pulled down below his chin. This carefree appearance instead went unnoticed, with paparazzi stationed at the airport completely overlooking them.
It was very noticeable when celebrities traveled with an assistant, and it was rare to see any celebrity accompanied by a high-attraction assistant going around; such a handso man and beautiful woman pairing was mostly suspected to be a couple.
Seeing no one sneaking photos, she beca bolder, pushing the luggage cart and quietly talking to Xu Qingyan by her side.
“How about we find a place to eat after we get to the hotel at noon?”
“Hmm? You know a place?”
He pushed the luggage slowly, turning his head to glance at Pei Muchan, and casually leaned in closer. The cool fragrance wafting from the mature woman beside him lifted his spirits considerably.
“I know.”
Pei Muchan pursed her lips into a smile, blending with the crowd as they exited the airport.
On their arrival at Jianye, it was an overcast day.
With a noisy crowd around them, the two got into a taxi and left the airport, heading straight for the hotel arranged by the show’s crew. Sitting in the back, they agreed to explore and dine together later.
They would start recording the show only tomorrow, so their schedule wasn’t too tight, leaving plenty of ti for leisure.
In the car, Pei Muchan leaned against the window with her eyes closed, resting because she was a bit carsick.
Xu Qingyan was looking down at his phone, preparing to reply to Lin Wanzhou’s ssage.
“Are you recording the program?”
“Yes, it’s about to start soon, I’m nervous.”
“Don’t be nervous, you’re very talented.”
“Okay./naive/ ”
Lin Wanzhou had flown to Jianye with Qi Ting the previous evening to prepare for recording the show today. On the way, a flurry of snapshots, what they saw, they photographed.
Qi Ting, exhausted to death, Qi Ting asleep, Qi Ting squatting in the distance smoking. Also the boarding gate, Jianye’s night sky, skyscrapers, traffic…
The original competition format of “I Am the Song King” involved challenger elimination, aning new participants would challenge existing ones and the last ones could be eliminated. The audience had found the challenger format sowhat boring, as the veteran singers felt no pressure.
Thus in the new season, the show introduced two challenger contestants, last week’s challengers were the powerhouse diva Zhang Yuqi and the veteran singer Wang Yu.
Upon their arrival, they directly took out the sixth and seventh place newcors, delivering a thoroughly overwhelming performance, also pushing the ratings higher.
Although “I Am the Song King” prided itself on creating a competition for professional singers, it indeed had to offer sothing distinct from ordinary singing shows.
However, these days, even shows featuring all-powerful singers don’t necessarily achieve high ratings. Audiences prefer a blend of refinent and popularity, securing the singers’ talents while also inviting so buzz-generating challengers.
After much consideration, the show decided on the recently famous due to a romance reality show, the twin rising divas, Pei Muchan and Lin Wanzhou.
Fortuitously, both of them were singer-songwriters, well-established in their field, ensuring a level of quality, and their most recent songs had been widely acclaid as well.
Whether it was Pei Muchan’s “Qing Tian,” or Lin Wanzhou’s “What I Miss,” both had been validated by the market, still hanging in the higher rankings on various music charts.
Having the buzz, the talent, and substance, it was like being offered a pillow when sleepy, how could they not invite them?
“I Am the Song King” was still being recorded, and of course, the internal situation couldn’t be seen. They would record for two days this week, with Lin Wanzhou challenging today, and a revitalization round plus Pei Muchan’s challenge tomorrow.
The episode would be edited and broadcast next week, and if not eliminated, the recording would continue the following week.
First record, then edit the next week for review and broadcast.
The taxi rged into the main traffic flow, and Xu Qingyan turned off his phone screen. He glanced at Pei Muchan resting with her eyes closed beside him, feeling quite anxious in his heart, worried about the performance of the two.
