After finishing her meal, Linna returned home.

Her grandfather, Lin Ciyuan, was leaning back on the sofa watching TV.

Hearing the door open, he opened his eyes and greeted, "You're back? How did things go over there?"

Linna changed her shoes, walked over and sat down, picked up an apple from the coffee table, took a bite, and mumbled, "It's basically solved."

Lin Ciyuan nodded, then asked, "I heard you also went to Longhu Mountain?"

"Yes," Lin Na said, then added, "By the way, Grandpa, there's an old Taoist priest on Longhu Mountain who mentioned you."

Lin Ciyuan asked, "Oh? What was that old Taoist's name?"

"His name is Zhang Lingyuan."

Upon hearing the name, Lin Ciyuan sat bolt upright on the sofa, his voice rising several octaves, brimming with obvious excitement: "What? What did you say his name is?"

Lin Na was startled by his reaction. After a moment of stunned silence, she said, "Zhang Lingyuan, what's wrong, Grandpa? Why are you so agitated?"

Lin Ciyuan didn't answer her question, but instead pressed on urgently, "You mean that old Taoist priest's name is really Zhang Lingyuan?"

Linna nodded: "Yes, when I went there, he noticed my physical ailment and even had his apprentice prescribe some medicine for me."

Lin Ciyuan's voice carried a seriousness she had never seen before: "Remember, you must take that medicine. It will absolutely cure you completely."

Linna looked at her grandfather with suspicion, not understanding why he trusted an old Taoist priest in the mountains so much.

She casually replied, "Okay, I got it."

Lin Ciyuan seemed to see through her perfunctory attitude and added, "For your illness, I've been looking for this Taoist priest Zhang for the past few years. I never expected that you would actually meet him directly."

"Grandpa, could the old Taoist priest you mentioned before be Master Zhang?"

"That's right, he was a truly skilled man. Back then, he was not only capable of fighting on the battlefield, but his medical skills were also remarkable. However, after the war, he disappeared. Many people tried to recommend him for merit, but no one could find him." At this point, Lin Ciyuan asked, "How did you meet Master Zhang?"

Lin Na said, "I went there to find that Su Fan. Su Fan's master is Taoist Zhang Lingyuan."

Lin Ciyuan's eyes flickered: "You mean, Master Zhang's apprentice is that songwriter Su Fan?"

Linna nodded: "Yes, I just came back from having dinner with him."

Lin Ciyuan's tone carried an undeniable certainty: "You must cultivate a good relationship with Master Zhang's disciple."

Lin Na frowned, somewhat skeptical: "Grandpa, is that Taoist priest Zhang really that powerful?"

Lin Ciyuan didn't answer directly, but gave her a deep look and said something meaningful: "Just remember what Grandpa said. This is an opportunity that others would beg for."

Knowing her grandfather's temperament, Linna didn't press further and nodded, replying, "I understand."

But what she was thinking was something else entirely; she accepted the fact that Zhang Lingyuan was very capable.

However, she did not want too much self-interest to get involved with Su Fan.

Linna thinks that the current way of getting along is quite good.

Once Su Fan returned to the hotel, he began arranging the filming of a music video for a red tourism scenic spot.

He first called Wei Zhiran.

Once the call connected, Su Fan immediately shared his thoughts.

Upon hearing this, Wei Zhirang agreed almost without hesitation: "No problem, it's a good thing, we'll cooperate fully."

"We'll create a special section for red tourism on Dianping (a Chinese review platform) to attract more users."

Upon hearing this, Wei Zhirang said, "In that case, you don't need to contact each filming location in other provinces one by one. I'll help you coordinate."

"Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you?"

Wei Zhi said directly, "No trouble at all. I can take this opportunity to do them a favor."

Su Fan didn't stand on ceremony and said with a smile, "Then, Director Wei, since you put it that way, I won't be polite. I'll leave the matter of the red tourism site to you."

"Don't worry, I guarantee it will be handled transparently!"

……

After hanging up the phone, Su Fan lay on his back on the bed, staring at the ceiling and thinking.

"If we want to solidify our relationship with the military region, one or two songs are far from enough; we need to come up with something more substantial."

"When the opportunity arises, let's also produce 'Soldiers' Sortie,' which will take our relationship to the next level."

"Let's talk about that later; there's no rush!"

……

Lost in thought, Su Fan fell asleep.

After hanging up the phone, Wei Zhiran was not sleepy at all.

He first made arrangements for filming at red tourism sites within Qin Province.

Then he picked up his phone and started scrolling through his contacts.

"Old Liu, there's something I'd like to ask you for help with..."

The leaders of the cultural and tourism bureaus who received Wei Zhirang's call late at night all frowned and looked displeased.

But when Wei Zhiran told them that Su Fan's new song "With Me" would be filmed at red tourism sites across the country, their scenic spots would have a chance to appear in the music video.

Immediately, everyone snapped out of their daze, as if injected with stimulants, and began arranging work overnight.

This isn't helping; it's clearly doing someone a favor.

The office of the military region's propaganda department was also awake.

They are currently busy editing some footage shot during the day, along with video materials provided by other military regions.

Because we've received orders from above to release the music video first thing tomorrow morning.

With tight deadlines and heavy workloads, overtime is inevitable.

The next morning, the official announcement was released on time.

The song and music video for "Soldiers," with lyrics and music by Su Fan and sung by Zeng Yue, have been officially released. Dedicated to all active-duty soldiers, veterans, and young people about to don their uniforms, their passion for the military forges their spirit, and their youth is dedicated to national defense!

Below the caption is a link to the song and a music video.

As soon as the news broke, everyone came to watch.

Do they remember the devastating impact of the song "Green Flowers in the Army" from just two days ago?

Therefore, everyone is waiting for the official next move.

Here it is, here it comes.

"Su Fan wrote another military song? His last one, 'Green Flowers in the Army,' almost killed me. I hope this one will break my spirits again!"

"I breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the title. This song title sounds uplifting; hopefully it won't make me homesick anymore, right?"

"I cried for three days straight while watching 'Green Flowers in the Army,' and now this is another tearjerker—I just can't take it!"

"I have a feeling this song will be a stark contrast to 'Green Flowers in the Army,' one will soften your heart, the other will warm it. Su Fan, you're a master of psychological warfare!"

"I haven't heard it yet, but I bet five cents that this song is definitely more uplifting than 'Green Flowers in the Army,' otherwise how will it end?"

"I just saw someone forward a notice on WeChat Moments with the caption 'The Psychological Defense Reconstruction Project Officially Launched,' it's hilarious! Looks like everyone was scared off by the last song!"
