“This time, it’s mainly because the unexpected situation with Zhang Qiyao. Otherwise, we might have succeeded,” Shixian said.
Speaking of Qiyao, Luqi’s thoughts drifted further away.
She heard Shixian say, “But now that I understand Ji Junjie’s temper, he won’t be swayed by persuasion or force. If you anger him this time, I’m worried that your cooperation with Feng Videos will really be in trouble in the future. We can’t afford to offend a platform as big as Feng Videos. You can make use of this entire season to perform well and cooperate well. Try to redeem the bad impression you left with Ji Junjie today.”
Seeing Luqi’s unwillingness, Shixian advised, “This isn’t to please Ji Junjie, but for the long-term cooperation between you and Feng Videos. However, Feng Videos is such a big platform, and it is already showing signs of becoming the number one platform. We can’t afford to offend them.”
Although Luqi was very unwilling, Shixian’s words made sense, so she had no choice but to agree.
Shixian let out a sigh of relief.
Luqi thought for a while and whispered to Shixian, “I can’t turn around, but is Tan Jingsheng is still looking over here?”
Shixian found it strange. Why was Luqi paying so much attention to Jingsheng?
However, Shixian still sneaked a glance at her before saying to Luqi, “No, he’s looking up with his eyes closed.”
Luqi turned around and looked at him.
However, with her previous experience, she didn’t dare to look too long this time. She only glanced at him once before she withdrew her gaze and whispered to Shixian, “What’s going on between Tan Jingsheng and Zhang Qiyao? Why does it feel like there’s something going on between the two of them?”
‘What could it be?” Shixian did not react.
“I feel like there’s some ambiguity between them,” Luqi said.
Shixian thought about it for a moment. He was too busy paying attention to Jiang Xun and Junjie to notice the interaction between Jingsheng and Qiyao. “I really didn’t notice that just now, but the two of them participated in the romance variety show as an intern couple. What was it called again?”
Shixian thought about it first. The name was on the tip of his tongue and he finally remembered. “Oh right, it’s called ‘My Other Half’. The other guests are all real couples, and there’s also Zhang Shuidong and his wife. Only Tan Jingsheng and Zhang Qiyao didn’t know each other and entered the show as intern couples. It was probably because of that show that the two of them became close. Moreover, since they were a couple inside, even if it was fake, the two of them would always be together. As an intern couple, it was inevitable that they would have some intimate interactions. It is similar to how actors develop feelings for each other because of acting. It’s natural for the two of them to have a good impression of each other after being intern couples.” Luqi lowered her eyes and remained silent.
Shixian finally saw something and asked in a low voice, “Why do you pay so much attention to Tan Jingsheng? Are you…”
It couldn’t be.
Shixian first felt that it was strange. Luqi and Jingsheng rarely interacted.
They had once recorded OST together for a TV series and met at some events, but there was no more contact.
How could Luqi like him?
“I think he’s not bad,” Luqi admitted. “And his family’s resources are good. He’s currently in an upward trend. It’s rare for someone to rise as quickly as him.
Isn’t it because of the convenience brought by his family, teachers, and fellow disciples? If I were to be together with him, I would definitely be able to enjoy the convenience of this and get good resources through him. Moreover, since he and Zhang Qiyao are so popular, wouldn’t it be better for me if I create a ship with him?”
“He’s going to hold a concert soon, and the tickets for the concert are on sale. Many fans couldn’t get it and had to turn to scalpers. Only his two senior brothers have achieved this level of ticket sales. Other singers might be famous, but if they really held a concert, their tickets wouldn’t be sold out. Few people dare to hold a concert in a big stadium. Usually, those who are more conservative would hold it in a stadium. Even so, there are still many organizations that gave away tickets. There are also shopping malls that give away tickets because the tickets could not be sold.”
Luqi whispered.
“Tan Tingsheng held his first concert after becoming famous. and he chose to
hold it in a big stadium. Before the tickets were opened, many people did not think highly of him, thinking that such a large scale concert would not fill up, and even if it did, having two-thirds of the venue occupied would be considered a success.” To be honest, even Luqi felt that Jingsheng had overestimated himself by choosing to hold a concert in the stadium.
There were only a handful of people in the music industry who dared to hold a concert in such a large venue. Two of them were even Jingsheng’s seniors.
“I didn’t expect his concert to be sold out immediately. Only his two senior brothers had done this before. Even though other artists may hold concerts in large stadiums, the tickets are not as difficult to obtain,” Luqi said. “I know my own situation. I may have a lot of fans, but if I were to hold a concert in a big stadium like him, I would be lucky if half of the tickets are sold.”
Even in terms of endorsements, he had more sales than other male celebrities of the same status.
“That’s why I thought of pairing up with Tan Jingsheng,” Luqi said in a low voice. “Moreover, he is really suitable as a partner. He is doing well in the entertainment industry and is also the son of a wealthy family. It’s not just me.
There are too many people who want to develop their relationship with him. It’s just that he doesn’t usually attend many events, so there are even fewer opportunities to meet him. Singers are not like actors, who spend a lot of time acting and spend a few months with the production team and easily develop feelings. Tan Jingsheng occasionally attends events. Before this show, he had only participated in the show ‘My Other Half.’ It’s too difficult to develop a relationship with him through work. It’s not easy to even come into contact with him during normal activities. That’s why no one had succeeded in pursuing him so far.”
Luqi whispered, “It’s rare to participate in the same variety show as him this time. I want to give it a try. But first, I want to be a guest at his concert.”
“This way, when he’s preparing for the concert, I’ll definitely have to go to the rehearsal as a guest, right? Will I still be afraid that I would lack time to spend with him? Besides, with his concert garnering so much attention, as his guest, I’ll definitely receive some attention too. When the time comes, I can work on creating rumors about us…” Luqi didn’t finish her sentence.
Shixian knew what to do.
Sure enough, Shixian’s eyes lit up. “You’re quick-witted.”
The two of them stopped talking. It was not appropriate to talk too much here. On the stage, the students went from the preparation room to the competition area.
Spectator seats were prepared for the students.
The students greeted the audience as they came out.
Although some students had not officially debuted, the company had already arranged for them to debut.
Therefore, before they debuted, they had already used various methods to make them appear in front of the public..
