“I’ll go back and talk it over, get things straightened out,”
Upon hearing this, Xu Qingyan, who had been lounging lazily, sat upright, his eyes gleaming.
“Really?”
“Yeah, can’t keep going on like this, living in a daze,” Zhou Mian said.
“When you’ve sorted it out, come straight over and help me,” Xu Qingyan smiled, “There’s so much to do in the crew, and I can’t handle it alone, plus I lack experience.”
“Sure.”
…
The next day, Xu Qingyan got in touch with the person recommended by Chen Niannian and set up a time for the audition.
“Is tomorrow okay? Travel and hotel expenses reimbursed.”
“Yes, yes, yes, I heard about it from Niannian,” the person responded eagerly, as if grasping at a lifeline, “Thank you, Director Xu, for the opportunity, I will be there on time tomorrow, thank you….”
At lunchtime, Pei Muchan heard about the matter and stared at him for a while.
“Director Xu?”
“Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean by that?” Xu Qingyan pointed at her, “Don’t be sarcastic. I may not be a director, but I’m at least a producer.”
“You put in the money, so of course you’re a producer.”
This comment made Xu Qingyan feel delighted. He checked his bank balance on his phone and immediately felt invigorated, as he virtually had no money.
A total of four million invested, and at most, there would be only a pitiful amount left.
“Is your album finished?” Xu Qingyan shifted his gaze, as long as Pei Muchan’s side turned a profit, an injection of four million would make their funds much more comfortable.
“Next week.”
“Alright, then I’ll wait some more,” Xu Qingyan said, thinking to himself that their two albums better not clash again. He would need to find some time to inquire about the progress from Lin Wanzhou’s side.
At night, Lin Wanzhou, who was in Qingzhou, received a call from Xu Qingyan.
“Album progress… It should be fast, Sister Yun said there’s no need to produce an MV. Just release the album to test the waters, it should be next week if all goes well.”
“What! Next week?” Xu Qingyan was stunned.
“What’s wrong?” Lin Wanzhou asked in confusion.
“Nothing,” he didn’t know what to say and felt speechless. It was like inevitable fate to have a showdown again after more than a year. But unlike before when it was deliberately arranged, this time it must be a coincidence.
If any blame was to be assigned, Xu Qingyan would have to take it. After all, he scheduled Pei Muchan and Lin Wanzhou’s new songs on the same day, so the progress on both sides was similar — it all came down to the timing of the recording.
“There’s an album launch next week, will you come?” Lin Wanzhou suddenly asked.
“I’ll see, I’ll do my best,” Xu Qingyan was careful with his words, “I’m not sure if I’ll make a trip to Southern Yunnan this week, that matter I mentioned to you before.”
“Oh, I remember, the red-themed script, right?” Lin Wanzhou said, remembering well, “Whether you come or not, I’ll still thank you at the launch.”
“That’s fine, the album is mainly yours after all,” Xu Qingyan didn’t forget to offer encouragement, “Your next album will definitely feature even better songs.”

“Is that so.”
“Speaking of which, how did your endorsement negotiations go?” Xu Qingyan casually inquired, “It’s been so long, there should be some results by now, right?”
“It didn’t work out, the other party chose a female artist from Jia Hang’s company for the endorsement,” Lin Wanzhou’s voice sounded a bit downcast, sighing, “Wasted nearly half a month’s time….”
“It’s okay, it’s just one brand ambassador,” Xu Qingyan wasn’t surprised, comforting her, “It’s never easy for singers to get endorsements, things will look up after your album is released.”
“That’s quite impressive already. Jiang Ling doesn’t have a single endorsement.”
As soon as Jiang Ling was mentioned, Lin Wanzhou became silent on the other end, only the sound of her light breathing remained.
“You and her…”
“Ah? What?” Xu Qingyan was clueless, but indeed he had no involvement with Jiang Ling, which made him feel particularly at ease, “She should… sign with the company after a while.”
“Why does it have to be her?” Lin Wanzhou complained, somewhat displeased.
“That’s a bit complicated, but the partnership is still worthwhile,” Xu Qingyan explained, “Signing Jiang Ling cheaply was like finding a bargain.”
“Oh, why don’t you sign me?” she huffed.
“What are you joking about, how can a small temple accommodate a big Buddha?” Xu Qingyan said, “The company might not even get going, depending on your album’s sales to fund it.”
“Besides, it’s a film company. Actually, the music division won’t be too big. By the time the company becomes self-sufficient and profitable, the music department will probably be gone.”
“Fine, but you mustn’t…” Lin Wanzhou held herself back mid-sentence.
“Hmm hmm.”
Apartment living room.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Qingyan lay on the couch and tossed his phone onto the table.
Next week, the two ladies would release their albums, with Lin Wanzhou having an album launch. Pei Muchan, with her temperament, would probably not bother, just posting a notice and getting a website recommendation would suffice.
The clash didn’t really matter, as half of the songs on both their albums were written by him. No matter the final results, there were no highs or lows to consider.
With these thoughts, Xu Qingyan felt at ease.
It’s useless to just spin in circles, worrying is a waste of time. His goal for this year was to shoot more than two film and television works — as long as he focused on work, he would have no worries.
Whether it was him, Pei Muchan who had found her groove again, or Lin Wanzhou who was ready to surpass herself, for all three, this year could be when fortunes turned for the better.
Xu Qingyan couldn’t always be writing songs. A singer’s path needs to be carved out by themselves. The three of them doing the same thing didn’t mean much in the grand scheme of things.
The following day.
Xu Qingyan met with the actor recommended by Chen Niannian; they met up at the company.
The company’s formalities and various filming permits had been sorted out the previous winter. The office, too, was selected by Zhou Mian, located in the downtown area of Xinghai.
