This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 91 You Will Kill the Entire Game

After Li Quan said he couldn't guess who it was, Xu Zi had already narrowed it down to a few candidates.

If Lu Ran really wanted to find a guest performer in the entertainment industry, there's no way he couldn't find one.

No matter how powerful Xingyao Media is, it's impossible to prevent all singers from collaborating with Lu Ran.

Some singers who are no longer very popular don't care. Going on "Future Singer" and singing a duet with Lu Ran can increase their exposure, so why not?

As for Xingyao Media's statement, who cares?

There's no shortage of singers like that in the entertainment industry.

These singers still have at least one or two hit songs to their name.

Getting these people to do the work is simple; just agree on a price and schedule a time.

Xu Zi racked her brains but never expected Li Quan to mention Su Qingtang's name.

Xu Zi suppressed her surprise and regained her composure: "President Li, you must be joking. How could Su Qingtang possibly participate in our program? Who is she anyway?"

Li Quan knew Xu Zi wouldn't believe him, and said proudly, "Su Qingtang, I'm not lying to you."

Xu Zi looked away from the bearded man's face, feeling that this agent was unreliable, and looked directly at Lu Ran with an inquiring gaze.

Lu Ran is more reassuring than Li Quan.

Lu Ran decided to play along with Quan Ge's act, and he said seriously, "It really is Su Qingtang, we've already made an appointment."

Xu Zi was taken aback at first, then her calm face broke into a look of ecstasy.

She would never normally show this kind of expression.

Who is Su Qingtang?

That's a national-level soprano singer, a regular on the Spring Festival Gala!
She has appeared at several large-scale galas!

Su Qingtang shone brightly at the folk song festival a while ago.

This kind of person wouldn't even come to the New Year's Eve gala of Qincheng TV or Orange Video, let alone the variety show "Future Singer".

"Really?"

Xu Zi still couldn't believe it.

Li Quan just liked seeing Xu Zi's naive and unworldly demeanor.

"Director Xu, I certainly have no reason to lie to you about this. Just wait for Su Qingtang to be on Future Singer."

Xu Zi's mind is buzzing right now.

This is like a pie falling from the sky!

She got hit!
Su Qingtang appearing as Lu Ran's guest performer on Future Singer is definitely something that would top the trending searches.

Too scary!

After calming down, Xu Zi asked, "How did you manage to invite Su Qingtang?"

Li Quan said calmly, "That's not something I can say."

Xu Zi didn't ask too many questions, as the process was none of her business as the director.

At this moment, Lu Ran said, "Director Xu, please keep this a secret for us."

He then explained his request.

The main effort was put into the stage design; Su Qingtang was to hide her identity at the beginning and reappear after the voting was over.

But this song is, after all, "The Nation," a grand and majestic song.

Once the stage design is done well, there won't be any problems.

After listening, Xu Zi gained a deeper understanding of Lu Ran's character.

Although this person is upright, he is also a bit cunning.

If Jiang Yaofeng actually comments on Su Qingtang's singing skills, how awkward would the scene be when Su Qingtang finally appears?

Jiang Yaofeng can comment on other singers without much trouble, but Su Qingtang is definitely not someone he can comment on.

"Leave the stage to me, we're professionals."

Xu Zi then remembered something else: "What song did you sing together?"

“I’ve already sent the songs to Teacher Zhou,” Lu Ran said.

"Okay, I'll go listen."

Lu Ran and Li Quan didn't linger any longer; the two left the TV station and went to eat barbecue.

This has become a regular celebration for the two of them.

Xu Zi quickened her pace and went to Zhou Ruiyang's side.

"Old Zhou, Lu Ran said he's sent you the song he'll be singing in the next episode. Let me listen to it."

Xu Zi's tone was somewhat urgent.

She was genuinely curious about what song Lu Ran and Su Qingtang would sing together.

These two seem to have somewhat different styles.

Zhou Ruiyang glanced at Xu Zi: "You knew everything?"

"understood."

Zhou Ruiyang thought to himself, "What a terrible thing!"
Then he said, "This song was written naturally."

Xu Zi was filled with questions.

She felt she had already received enough shocks today.

First it was Xiao Chou, then Su Qingtang, and now here comes "Let Nature Take Its Course." And how are "Let Nature Take Its Course" and Su Qingtang connected to Lu Ran?

Zhou Ruiyang didn't say anything, but handed the earphones to Xu Zi directly.

Lu Ran and Su Qingtang later recorded a duet version, which was a version where each person sang their own version and then the two versions were edited together in post-production.

This is the version that Zhou Ruiyang played for Xu Zi.

Xu Zi put on her headphones and listened quietly.

As soon as the song started, Xu Zi glanced at Zhou Ruiyang, her face filled with undisguised surprise.

A few minutes later, she listened to the whole song, took off her headphones, and returned them to Zhou Ruiyang.

Having worked in the variety show industry for so many years, Xu Zi has seen it all, and she can control any contestant's antics.

But the thought of what would happen that day made her a little nervous.

Is this the kind of group that can appear on "Future King of Singers"?

Lu Ran, you will kill the entire game!
But Xu Zi quickly composed herself.

This is both a challenge and an opportunity!
This song and its combination will give the entire show unprecedented popularity and sophistication.

This is something that no amount of money can buy!
This stage needs to be designed well!
"Old Zhou, Lu Ran's program absolutely cannot have any mistakes!" Xu Zi said seriously.

Zhou Ruiyang said, "I know, I will keep an eye on it myself."

Since the song has already been released, there can't be any problems whatsoever.

If something goes wrong, the show will be canceled.

Xu Zi's heart was pounding wildly.

She couldn't wait to hold the fourth performance of "Future King of Singers" tomorrow, to give the audience a little surprise!

Whether or not there's a competition is no longer important.

……

Online, as the live broadcast of "The Future Singer" ended, various topics from the show began to explode in popularity.

The song "Sorrow" immediately topped the list of trending entertainment searches.

On all major platforms, videos related to the song "Xiaochou" are all trending.

The production team was also quick, rapidly uploading the live audio of "Xiaochou" to major music platforms.

The next day, the rankings of new songs on major music apps changed.

The song "Sorrow" suddenly appeared and entered the top ten of the new song chart, and its popularity is still rising rapidly.

The song's comment section was also very lively, with netizens sharing their thoughts and feelings about the song.

This song is clearly aiming for number one.

Since the first episode of "The Future King of Singers" aired, Lu Ran's songs have consistently appeared at the top of the new song charts.

This left a group of singers in the music industry speechless.

Can I still release songs now?

At 2 p.m., Fei Lingyun posted a Weibo post.

"I'd like to introduce my guest performer for the fourth performance, @Cheng Yarui, a Golden Melody Award winner for Best Female Singer and a recognized stage queen. This time, the collaboration song was tailor-made by @Lian Xinghan, blending electronic and pop elements, which will definitely bring you a different audio-visual experience!"

Join us live on August 29th! Let the music speak for itself, and let the stage witness your talent!

This Weibo post was clearly planned by Fei Lingyun's publicity team.

Lu Ran is too popular. If they don't make some noise, all the attention will be on Lu Ran.

Releasing this news at this crucial juncture is meant to encourage fans and, incidentally, capitalize on the trending topic.

Sure enough, Fei Lingyun's fans went wild after the Weibo post was published.

"Cheng Yarui and Lian Xinghan, this combination is amazing! Lingyun's performance this time will definitely blow the audience away!"

"Lingyun always pushes his limits on stage. With Teacher Cheng's support this time, a double whammy of visual and auditory spectacle is guaranteed!"

"Ahhhhhh, I never expected to see Ling Yun and Teacher Cheng collaborate, especially with a song created by Teacher Lian Xinghan! I can't wait for the 'Gods' moment on the 29th!"

Cheng Yarui is much more popular than Fei Lingyun.

After Fei Lingyun posted this Weibo, Cheng Yarui also reposted it with a comment.

This topic quickly rose to second place on the entertainment trending search list.

Lu Ran's fans couldn't help but feel worried when they saw this scene.

"As expected of a big company, the guest performers are all top-tier singers, and the songs are written by top producers."

"Hasn't Lu Ting found a guest performer yet? Chang'an Entertainment doesn't seem to have many resources in the music industry, does it?"

"Even if things don't go well, we can always find someone to sing with us; we won't be completely unable to find anyone."

"This time it's really dangerous."

Cheng Yarui's singing skills are widely recognized.

Especially Lian Xinghan, who is also very famous in the industry. He has written songs for many singers and has dozens of classic songs.

Each of these songs is comparable to those composed by Lu Ran.

However, at that moment, Lu Ran also posted a Weibo post.

"To our audience, we would like to report on the preparations for the fourth performance: This time we will be performing an artistic work created by @Shunqiziran, and we will also have a special guest to join us in the performance. Please look forward to the live broadcast on August 29th."
