Everyone was waiting for Xu Wangzhi’s result.
Many people were convinced that he wouldn’t pass.
However, the results made Chengyu’s expression turn slightly ugly.
Only the director and the entire production team were very happy because Xu Wangzhi’s results would bring a lot of value and popularity to the production team.
When Xu Wangzhi returned, the director immediately brought people to
welcome him. “Wangzhi, you’re back? Congratulations, you’ve qualified for the
international finals.”
“Thank you, thank you,” Xu Wangzhi said. “You’re going to record now, right?
I’ll prepare to record immediately.”
The director followed him. “Wangzhi, we plan to shoot a publicity short for you this time. Also, we plan to shoot a direct shot of you today. We’ll discuss the competition with you, but it depends on whether you agree or not.”
“No problem. It’s completely fine.” Xu Wangzhi nodded in agreement.
“Then it’s settled. We’ll do the negotiations. By the way, we’ll follow and record the entire process during the finals. What do you think?”
“Okay, just discuss it with my manager again,” Xu Wangzhi agreed.
“Then put on your makeup first. I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll make arrangements for the trip to France later.” The director left with his men.
Brother Tang closed the door and said, “Do you know how important you are now? You were immediately surrounded. Why didn’t they think of giving you more screen time before?”
“When you’re valuable, there are plenty of people who want to realize common values with you.” Xu Wangzhi was very clear-headed. He knew what he could bring to the production team and what the production team would give him.
The director went out happily. Thinking of the viewership ratings and the surge of popularity in the near future, he felt as though he had just picked up a treasure.
Who would have thought that halfway through the show, there would be such a surprise?
He had just walked out when Chengyu’s manager walked over and said to him, “Director, Chengyu is running out of time. I hope the recording can be more focused later. Perhaps we can finish recording everything directly. Let’s discuss the schedule.”
“Uhh…” The director did not expect Chengyu to make such a request. In that case, the production team would have to rush to film.
If they were in a hurry to record, they might miss the finals with Xu Wangzhi.
In fact, Xu Wangzhi might even withdraw from Piano Story.
He was still thinking of using Xu Wangzhi’s finals in the competition to cause a sensation during the final recording of Piano Story.
“Director, most of the shows and sponsorships this time were sponsored by Director Cheng. Will you not satisfy this small request of ours?”
The director knew in his heart that Chengyu was dissatisfied with Xu Wangzhi’s popularity. It had caused a huge pressure on Chengyu.
Chengyu was supported by Director Cheng. He was the new star that the Cheng family was focused on promoting.
Xu Wangzhi was considered someone who stole the limelight halfway.
“Then let’s discuss it again.”
The director said.
In fact, he already knew that the possibility of negotiation was very small. Xu Wangzhi would probably be squeezed out of the competition.
“They’re too much!” Brother Tang said angrily when he heard the news.
Xu Wangzhi also frowned. Clearly, it was very difficult to change the itinerary in France. Chengyu was trying to take advantage of this.
The time he proposed to change the recording schedule made it impossible for Xu Wangzhi to attend both.
If Xu Wangzhi wanted to continue recording Piano Story, he would have to miss the finals of the Tchaikovsky Piano Competition.
If he was going to participate in the finals, he couldn’t do what he did tonight, rushing back in half an hour to record the show.
Brother Tang said, “Wangzhi, do you want me to tell Old Master Xu about this? They’re already suppressing you to this extent. Are you still not allowed to resist?”
Xu Wangzhi thought for a moment and said, “If I go to my grandfather after being bullied, wouldn’t I be admitting defeat to my family and telling them that I can’t do it and that I need protection? Wouldn’t that be completely opposite to the bold words I said when I came out in the past? I can’t do such a thing.”
“So what’s your plan?”
“Let’s negotiate first. If the negotiation doesn’t work out, we’ll talk about other things,” Xu Wangzhi said. “If it really doesn’t work out, I’ll just give up on the recording of Piano Story.”
“Then your fans and popularity…”
“Unfortunately, imperfect talents are more touching. If I quit, I might leave an even more unforgettable impression on everyone.” Xu Wangzhi was unwilling to think about complicated things and was very optimistic.
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Brother Tang could only respect his opinion for the time being.
In a cafe.
The melodious sound of a violin echoed in the air.
The fragrance of coffee filled the entire shop.
The atmosphere was invigorating and sobering.
Chen Yufeng was holding a coffee cup and slowly tasting it with a graceful expression.
When Lin Shuhui walked in, she saw her walking toward her.
Chen Yufeng immediately put down her coffee cup and greeted with a smile, “You’re here.”
Lin Shuhui sat down in front of her and said indifferently, “You asked me out, so I came to see what’s going on.”
“It seems that you’re still very sentimental.”
“We’ve known each other for so many years and were best friends for so many years. How can I not be?” Lin Shuhui said.
The waiter brought over a cup of Pu’er and placed it in front of Lin Shuhui. “Madam, your tea.”
She ordered a cup of tea for Lin Shuhui in this professional coffee shop. Chen Yufeng smiled and said, “Your favorite Pu’er. I still remember your preferences very clearly.”
Lin Shuhui said calmly, “That’s right. We’ve known each other for so many years, and many habits are engraved in our bones. It won’t be easy to forget them.”
“Shuhui, try it.”
Lin Shuhui calmly picked it up and took a sip. “Not bad. But you didn’t ask me to come here just to drink tea and reminisce, did you?”
“Of course, that’s one of the reasons. However, I do have something to ask of you.”
Lin Shuhui listened quietly and did not interrupt.
Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Chen Yufeng could only ask, “Do you know the judges of this piano competition?”
“What do you mean?” Lin Shuhui put down the teacup. The red liquid of the Pu’er tea splashed on the table.
Chen Yufeng didn’t dare to be too straightforward. She felt that Lin Shuhui knew the judges, which was how her students could go to the finals.
After all, Lin Shuhui was very popular with these masters internationally back then. It was reasonable for others to be willing to give her face and her students special treatment.
“Don’t be too angry. That’s not what I meant.. I just…”
