In the days that followed, although Li Ye had nothing to do, he still stayed obediently in Guangzhou.

He picks up and drops Li Xiran off at school every day, and on weekends he takes her and her classmates to Sunac Ski Resort.

Occasionally, he would climb the mountains of Guangzhou alone or with Chen Hu, or like a tourist from out of town, visit the scenic spots and taste the local delicacies.

When I'm at home, I watch movies, listen to music, and even learn some English by watching videos of a handsome male celebrity.

They lived a life that was both disciplined and leisurely.

On October 20th, the mastering of all the songs in "Wilderness" was completed, and on the 23rd, the post-production of the four music videos was also finished.

On the same day, after receiving a notification from Li Chengsong, Li Ye came to Fanxing and watched the four music videos with Chen Yusheng and some Fanxing executives.

"Ah Ye, what do you think?"

As Chen Yusheng spoke, all the senior executives of Fanxing turned their attention to the casually dressed young man.

"It's fine," Li Ye said honestly.

He often felt awkward while filming, and sometimes even thought it was outdated.

But watching all four music videos together felt like watching a short film.

After Li Ye nodded, the other executives of Fanxing immediately began showering Li Chengsong with compliments.

"Director Li's skill is truly remarkable; these music videos have a cinematic quality!"

"That's right, that's right. I think Director Li is fully capable of directing TV series on his own."

"Cheng Song has always been a pillar of our film and television department. He really should be directing his own projects; otherwise, it would be a waste of his talent!"

This was something they had discussed. In terms of ability alone, Li Chengsong had absolutely no problem taking up the handle.

In the past, Li Chengsong did not compete or fight for anything, so the company did not take any risks.

But things are different now; Li Ye is too famous.

Li Chengsong has worked at the company for over ten years, and he has been an assistant director for at least eight or ten years.

It would be bad if Li Ye felt that his uncle had been treated unfairly and developed a grudge against the company.

Faced with such flattery, even Li Chengsong was all smiles.

However, he repeatedly waved his hand at the idea of ​​directing solo.

Chen Yusheng advised, "We've discussed this internally. With your abilities, you're fully capable of directing on your own. We can't do anything about big productions, but we can still help you get some low-budget dramas to practice with."

"Mr. Chen, after all this time, don't you understand me at all?"

Li Chengsong glanced at Li Ye, then smiled and said, "If I were interested, I would have already tried to get it from the company. I wouldn't have waited until today."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yusheng couldn't help but glance at Li Ye. He had to admit that the uncle and nephew were quite similar in some ways.

Why are you looking at me? Li Ye knew his uncle well and didn't participate in the conversation. Seeing that they had finished talking, he turned to ask, "When can it be released?"

"We have communicated with all the music platforms. 'Wilderness' will be released simultaneously on all platforms at 8 pm the day after tomorrow, and the promotional campaign will start today," the person in charge of distribution said truthfully.

Under normal circumstances, the publicity period is too short.

But no one at the scene raised any questions.

The Wilderness has actually been generating buzz for quite some time.

The live performances of "Blue Lotus" and "White Dove" by Li Ye at a music festival were so terrible, yet the audio is still at the top of various music charts.

Therefore, there is absolutely no need to worry about publicity.

If it weren't for the need to synchronize release dates with major music platforms, Fanxing would have preferred to announce the release date today and release it tomorrow night.

Li Ye had no objection to this and couldn't help but smile; "Wilderness" was finally about to be released.

Suddenly remembering something, he took out his phone and checked the date, his smile becoming somewhat strange.

Hmm, the day after tomorrow is Saturday again.

Li Ye is about to receive another message of complaint from Jiang Tao, the director of "Singer".

......

The news that "Wilderness" was launched on all platforms at 8 pm on October 25th quickly sparked heated discussions online.

Although Li Ye hasn't made any public appearances lately, the songs he performed at the music festival have been incredibly popular online.

Not only have the two newly released songs become incredibly popular, but the group sing-along video of "The Ordinary Road" has also garnered a staggering 12 million likes online.

Li Ye's fans and netizens alike have been eagerly anticipating "Wilderness".

Of course, there will be some malicious people among them.

Some people simply wanted to see Li Ye fall from a height.

There are also groups that are hostile towards Li Ye, such as those who previously turned against him after leaving the fandom.

Although there are fewer and fewer of these people left, most of them hate Li Ye more than ever.

In a large group of over a thousand people called "Abandon the Wilderness Alliance".

[Group admin @Everyone: Li Ye's album will be released the day after tomorrow. Those with money and connections can find some music critics and bloggers to buy negative articles. The rest can flood the comments section with negative reviews. In short, those with money should contribute money and those with effort. This may be our last chance to bring down this trashy artist!]

All group members quickly replied: 【Received】

At this point, a group member named "The Wind Howls, the Yi River is Cold" reminded everyone: "Please remember, everyone, don't buy the album; you'll just be giving him free sales."

[Little Raindrops @Wind Howling and Cold Water: You're brazenly sneaking in with Kong Lingxiao's picture on your profile picture? We hate Li Ye, but that doesn't mean we can be used by you!]

[Rainy Day @ Group Owner: Kick him out!]

The other members all added, "We may hate Li Ye, but why are you Kong Lingxiao's fans getting involved?"

The group admin removed member "风萧萧兮易水寒" from the group chat.

[Little Raindrops: Group Admin is awesome! I think we should buy "Wilderness." After all, knowing your enemy is half the battle, and a digital album is only thirty yuan. With a purchase record, we'll have more confidence when we criticize, right?]

[Fairy Descending to Earth: You're kidding me! Digital albums can't be refunded, are you stupid?]

[Little Raindrops: It's wrong of you to swear. I've made myself perfectly clear. Digital albums aren't expensive. If I buy one and then say it's not good, no one can argue with that.]

An argument immediately broke out in the group chat, and the final result was—

Gu Xiaoyu quickly saw the message: "You have been removed from the group chat and cannot send messages."

"Teacher Xiaoyu, are you done?"

"Here you are!"

Outside the dressing room, a reminder came. Gu Xiaoyu responded and muttered as she handed her phone to her assistant beside her, "These haters are so smart."

......

Wilderness has finally been confirmed for release!

This news also brought a sigh of relief to many singers who have songs or albums yet to be released.

Previously, not only Kong Lingxiao had the idea of ​​competing with Li Ye, but some other singers had already prepared albums, hoping to step on Li Ye to rise to the top.

However, since Li Ye participated in the music festival, no one has dared to think that way anymore, and all song release plans have been suspended.
