Taking Liu Yifei back to Northeast China for the Chinese New Year has sent the entire internet into

At the barbecue stall, the steam and the aroma of cumin mingled together.

Liu Yifei finished her chicken wing in small bites, wiped her mouth with a tissue, and then looked up at Fang Yu, who was still engrossed in eating his rice.

"Who sent the message?"

"Hua Yu".

Fang Yu's mouth was full of meat, so his answer was mumbled.

Liu Yifei waited a few seconds, and seeing that he didn't continue, she had no choice but to ask:

"What does he want with you?"

Fang Yu finally managed to swallow what was in his mouth, and then took another sip of cola.

"The next round of the 'Peak Concert' will be a collaboration competition, and he wants to invite me to be his guest performer."

Liu Yifei blinked.

She recalled that when she recorded "Going Home for the New Year," the internet was flooded with press releases comparing Fang Yu and Hua Yu.

At that time, although the two had not truly broken off relations, the rivalry between them was quite intense.

"You agreed?"

"Yes, I agree."

Fang Yu spoke very decisively.

Liu Yifei was somewhat surprised.

"That was so satisfying?"

"What else?"

Fang Yu picked up a skewer of grilled gluten and said matter-of-factly:

"When we finished filming in Mohe, he asked me to play music together in the future, and I agreed."

He puffed out his chest, looking every bit the hero of the martial arts world.

"When Fang travels the world, his main principle is to be loyal and righteous, and to keep his word."

"If you promise someone something, you can't just leave it as a lie."

Liu Yifei couldn't help but laugh when she saw his serious expression.

"You're quite trustworthy."

"Of course."

Fang Yu patted his chest.

Suddenly, Liu Yifei leaned forward a little.

"Is he really so true to his word?"

"Hmm."

Fang Yu nodded, answering without the slightest hesitation.

Liu Yifei stared at him, deliberately drawing out her words.

"and you……"

Fang Yu stopped eating the skewers.

What's wrong with me?

Liu Yifei didn't answer, she just looked into his eyes.

A few seconds later, she spoke softly.

"Promise to love me for a lifetime..."

"Pfft—cough cough cough!"

Fang Yu choked on his cola before swallowing it, coughing until his face turned bright red.

Liu Yifei quickly handed him a napkin, patted his back, and her eyes were full of smiles.

Fang Yu finally caught his breath, took a tissue to wipe his mouth, and looked at the culprit across from him with a helpless expression.

"Fairy Sister, you're taking advantage of my misfortune."

"How did I take advantage of their misfortune?"

Liu Yifei blinked innocently.

"You said yourself that you keep your word."

"..."

Fang Yu looked at her and suddenly smiled too.

He took his phone out of his pocket, opened the memo app, and his fingers flew across the screen.

Liu Yifei's curiosity was piqued, and she subconsciously leaned over to take a look.

Lines of text appeared on the screen.

[Party A: Liu Yifei]

[Party B: Fang Yu]

[Party B shall provide Party A with lifelong loving service.]

[Contract Term: Lifetime.]

[Note: This contract shall become effective immediately upon verbal confirmation by Party B, and shall be irrevocable, non-transferable, and non-terminating.]

After Fang Yu finished writing, he cleared his throat and looked serious.

"We, the second party, Fang Yu, hereby formally confirm and agree to all the above terms."

After he finished speaking, he solemnly pushed his phone in front of Liu Yifei.

"Party A, please take a look."

Liu Yifei stared at the few lines of text for a moment, then her cheeks turned bright red.

She rolled her eyes at him, but couldn't help laughing, and lightly slapped his arm.

"Indecent."

……

a few days later.

There were no prior leaks or publicity campaigns.

The official accounts of CCTV Documentary Center and the Palace Museum jointly released a post at the same time.

[Six hundred years of trials and tribulations, three thousand miles of rivers and mountains, one city, one history. The 100-episode historical documentary series "The Forbidden City" is coming soon.]

Below the post, the first countdown poster was attached.

The poster design is simple and dignified, with vermilion palace walls and golden glazed tiles forming the main theme of the picture in the morning light, and the silhouette of the majestic corner tower standing in one corner, giving a strong sense of the weight of history.

However, when netizens' eyes slid down to the production credits at the very bottom of the poster, everyone was stunned.

The arrangement of the list is very particular.

Historical advisor, academic committee member, literary advisor, art director...

A long list of names of top domestic scholars, cultural heritage experts, and film and television moguls filled several rows.

And at the very end of these names, quietly sitting in the corner, are two lines of text.

[Music Production/Vocal Performance: Fang Yu]

[Music performed by: Liu Yifei]

No bolding, no special annotations.

These two lines of text made countless netizens immediately doubt whether they had read it wrong.

Two names that have recently become incredibly popular on the internet have appeared on the poster for a national-level project.

He was also listed alongside a group of historical advisors and academic giants.

The message was sent in less than five minutes.

#Fang Yu Liu Yifei Forbidden City#

The topic immediately went viral and became a trending topic.

Ten minutes later, they broke into the top three.

The first to be stunned were countless netizens who were surfing the internet and the two people's fans.

What's Fang Yu's image like in everyone's mind lately?

He's the man who wrote the catchy song "Just Because You're Too Beautiful" for his own trainees and also turned the "Chicken You're Too Beautiful" meme into the wildly popular blind box IP "Little Chicken".

He was a "fierce bandit from Northeast China" who hosted a grand banquet for ten thousand people, used a large red sedan chair with all mortise and tenon joints made by hand, and used a suona to attract birds to fly all over the sky.

He's the guy who was hailed as the "founding father" of the rap scene one minute, and then dominated the charts on major music platforms the next, causing chaos in the music industry the next minute.

He's the inventor of "Schrödinger's Ginger Hot Coke," who boiled two major Coca-Cola brands in a big iron pot.

The result is now told to them—

Did this person quietly join the "Forbidden City" project team?

Or is it music production and singing?

The netizen's CPU burned out on the spot.

The comment section was quickly filled with question marks.

【Wait, am I seeing things? That Fang Yu? The Fang Yu who sang "Northeast Folk Song" and "Mohe Dance Hall"?】

[Upstairs, be confident, it's him. Do you know anyone else named Fang Yu?]

[No way, last month this person was scaring retired teachers in Mohe by playing "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons" on a suona, and this month he's doing music for a documentary about the Forbidden City?]

[Is the version update this fast? Have the notorious bandits from Northeast China directly become national team members?]

[Outrageous! This is even more outrageous than when he drove a tractor to bring a fairy back to the village!]

The popularity continues to rise.

Soon, a group of marketing accounts and so-called "veterans" of the Chinese entertainment industry also joined in.

In their view, nothing about this matter seemed right.

How strict are the requirements for national-level documentaries?

In particular, music composition has historically prioritized experienced, established, and large-scale project-experienced professional composers.

What about Fang Yu?

He's only been in the industry for six months.

Although he has a lot of works and is very popular, what really makes him stand out is his down-to-earth personality, humor, and variety show skills.

As for Xingyao Entertainment, the company behind him, it is just a medium-sized company in Beijing.

In terms of resources, connections, and industry influence, Xingyao is not even in the top tier.

So here's the question.

On what grounds?

How did Fang Yu manage to get into such a national-level project that would be a part of an artist's resume?
