However, the number two-thirds is simply too large; he essentially believes there are no problems with it.

The key point is that no one knows what the final outcome will be.

Confidence is fine, but the most dangerous thing is when confidence turns into arrogance.

Xu Fan is currently feeling blindly confident.

Is this a side effect of the system? Thinking about this, Xu Fan frowned.

Just then, his gaze fell upon the other items of the mission rewards.

The harmonica master is a special instrument.

It is different from the xiao, the suona, and the pipa.

It was a very small musical instrument, which Xu Fan liked very much, but he was slightly disappointed that there was no harmonica available at the moment.

Additionally, I received +1 to Typhoon Dance Steps and +1 to Singing Skills! I also received the same two bonuses when I completed the mission last time.

It is precisely because of these two advantages that I am able to sing gossip songs so effortlessly.

Also, thanks to the addition of the typhoon dance steps, he was not too shy when he danced Gangnam Style, but was able to let loose more.

Xu Fan's sharp and powerful steps allow him to easily master both the "Gangnam Style" and "Most Dazzling Ethnic Style" dances.

Even though he didn't feel any changes in his body when he was rewarded with these two items again.

But subconsciously I felt that my dancing and stage presence should be better.

Improving these abilities before the New Year's Eve Gala and the Spring Festival Gala is indeed the greatest help one can give oneself.

Thinking about it this way, my trip to the Bagua Country was actually a good thing.

Xu Fan felt a mix of joy and melancholy as he experienced the new tasks and rewards from the system.

The joy comes from the rewards upon completion of tasks and the new tasks that follow; the melancholy stems from the sheer number and complexity of the system's rewards, or rather, the ever-increasing favorability points that make one increasingly reliant on them.

This feeling is like someone casting a long line to catch a big fish.

And I am that big fish that was released and allowed to grow.

While thinking about these things, Xu Fan suddenly received a call from Zhao Feiyang.

Zhao Feiyang said to Xu Fan on the phone, "I've already hired a few people for the studio. Would you like to come and take a look?"

Regarding this matter, Xu Fan simply said, "You handle it yourself; I won't get involved."

Zhao Feiyang didn't press the matter, but said, "Someone suggested merging Superstar Studio into Fanxing Pictures. What do you think?"

Xu Fan's attitude toward this matter remained the same as before, expressing his refusal and saying, "There's no need. Although music and film are both entertainment in essence, they are ultimately different, and the operating models of a studio and a company are also completely different."

Zhao Feiyang agreed, then added, "There's one more thing. Han Zilu said she couldn't get through to you and wants you to call her back."

Xu Fan asked, "Are you sure she called me?"

Zhao Feiyang said, "Anyway, that's what she told me, just remember it."

Xu Fan agreed, hung up the phone and called Han Zilu back, asking, "How are you adjusting lately? Are you feeling any better?"

Han Zilu seemed to be in a good mood; her voice sounded happy. She said, "I'm almost fully recovered and adapting quite well. Thank you for your care and concern, Mr. Xu."

Xu Fan said with a smile, "I heard from Fatty that you called me?"

Han Zilu said, "You mean President Zhao? Yes, that's right. You're too busy, the phone is busy."

Xu Fan didn't know how to explain, so he said, "Is there something wrong?"

Han Zilu said, "There are two things. During this period, President Liao has been teaching me some things about the company, and I have been learning them. These past two days, President Liao had some family matters to attend to and went back first, asking me to fill in for a few days. So I have two questions that I would like to ask you."

Xu Fan said, "Go ahead."

Han Zilu then said, "First of all, CCTV.com extended an invitation to An Ran, our company's exclusive host, to host the CCTV Spring Festival Gala at the Zhonghai venue. This was originally her own business, but she still came to consult me, since she is the company's exclusive host."

Xu Fan said with a smile, "This is a good thing. I remember that girl An Ran. Since CCTV has invited us, let's accept."

Han Zilu said, "Then I'll do as you say."

Xu Fan asked, "What's the other thing?"

Han Zilu said, "The New Year's Eve party is coming soon. Since you're going to Yanjing this time, can I come with you?"

Xu Fan was taken aback for a moment, then said, "I've already bought the tickets, so..."

Han Zilu said, "I've bought mine too."

Xu Fan was at a loss for words and said somewhat speechlessly, "Take care of the company's affairs, after all, President Liao is not here right now."

Upon hearing this, Han Zilu excitedly replied, "Okay, Mr. Xu, don't worry."

Xu Fan hung up the phone and couldn't help but shake his head.

Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve gala. CCTV.com's New Year's Eve gala will start at 7 pm tomorrow and continue until 1 am the next day.

The entire process is almost identical to that of the Spring Festival Gala. The initial phase is primarily focused on preparation, including reporting on each participant.

Xu Fan's flight is for 11:30 a.m. tomorrow, so he can have breakfast with his mother before setting off.

===Chapter 403 A Heart-Piercing Question===

The next day, Xu Fan took his mother and Shui'er to the airport.

Fatty Zhao Feiyang was also ready, but when he saw Shui'er, he said with some concern, "Little girl, you're wearing so little. What if you catch a cold?"

Dou Shui'er chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Fatty, Shui'er isn't cold."

It's raining in Zhonghai, while it's snowing in Yanjing.

When the plane landed, the weather was extremely cold. Snowflakes fell to the ground and did not melt. They accumulated one by one, becoming thicker and thicker.

The sanitation workers swept the snow off the ground, but the snowflakes remained on the eaves and branches.

Wearing a down jacket, Shui'er looked at the snowflakes excitedly and said, "Wow, the snow is so beautiful! I've never seen snow before."

Xu's mother wrapped her coat tighter and said, "Luckily, I wore plenty of clothes when we came. It's so cold outside."

The fat man said from the side, "Auntie, it's not too cold yet because of the snow. It will get really cold when the snow melts."

Xu's mother smiled and said, "So, according to you, we've come at a good time."

CCTV's car had been waiting at the airport for a long time, and staff members quickly came to greet them.

Another year has passed.

The New Year's Eve party is held every year.

Most provincial capital city TV stations host their own New Year's Eve galas, but CCTV also does.

The difference between the Spring Festival Gala and the CCTV Spring Festival Gala is that the Spring Festival Gala can only be hosted by CCTV on New Year's Eve, while other TV stations either broadcast it earlier or later.

However, there is no such restriction for New Year's Eve galas, meaning that no one can know the actual viewership ratings.

However, for CCTV, the New Year's Eve gala has been getting worse year by year in recent years.

Therefore, this year's gala was very special for the CCTV New Year's Eve Gala production team. Before Xu Fan became famous, many people at CCTV doubted that CCTV's ratings would be surpassed by other TV stations this year.

Even after Xu Fan became famous, few people noticed this until recently when they finally discovered the key point.

Xu Fan was the key to victory.

While all other TV stations were trying to invite Xu Fan, CCTV naturally didn't want to be outdone and quickly issued an invitation.

Therefore, even though Xu Fan encountered such a big public opinion wave a few days ago, CCTV's intention to invite Xu Fan to sing has not changed. Whether from the songs Xu Fan provided or from Xu Fan's influence, he has enough reason to stand on the stage.

Of course, there is one important point here as well.

That is, everyone at CCTV believed that there was nothing wrong with Xu Fan singing a gossip song, and that it had absolutely nothing to do with being unpatriotic.

Music that the masses can enjoy is good music. The song "Jiangnan" is not just liked by people in Taiwan; basically everyone likes it, including many people in China.

The recent developments have sparked widespread discussion online, with various versions of "Jiangnan" appearing, further demonstrating just how good Xu Fan's songs are.

The New Year's Eve gala started in the evening, and Xu Fan was taken to the guest lounge of CCTV's "Big Pants" building to rest.

As it approached seven o'clock, Xu Fan and his friends ordered takeout and ate a simple meal in the lounge.

The fat man went out alone to attend to some business.

There's actually enough time. The live stream starts at 7 PM and has nothing to do with actual singing, dancing, or skits, but there will still be an interview segment.

Just as Xu Fan and his friends were having dinner, a CCTV host stood at Xu Fan's door with a microphone and said to the camera: "Dear viewers, good evening. Time flies, and another year is coming to an end. The CCTV New Year's Eve Gala is now in its countdown. All our staff and participants are actively preparing."

In the footage, the gentle voice of the CCTV reporter, transmitted through television and internet live streams, reached the eyes of everyone who had already begun watching the New Year's Eve gala.

Actually, it's still quite early, so the peak traffic is still a long way off, and there aren't that many viewers yet.

Even so, CCTV officials were still shocked by the data when the live broadcast began.

The host continued into the camera: "Before the New Year's Eve gala begins, let's take a look at some of the actors and singers who will be participating in the gala tonight. As you all know, this year's New Year's Eve gala has invited award-winning actor Lu Kangning, popular actress Su Mo, superstar singer Xiao Zihan, our friends from the North China Song and Dance Theater, and the children from Yanjing No. 3 Primary School. Of course, there are others as well, and we will introduce them one by one later."

People started appearing in the live stream, the traffic increased, and comments began to appear. The host smiled and said, "Here, I want to tell you that we have a mystery guest here tonight."

This statement made the atmosphere in the live broadcast room extremely lively, but the host could not see it.

After a slight pause, she continued, "That's right, it's Xu Fan, the Chinese singer who has recently become popular all over the world. I believe everyone is familiar with the name 'Xu Fan.' Whether it's his participation in a variety show, everything he has done since then, or the songs he has sung, everyone should know about them. So tonight, let's get to know Xu Fan and talk to him about what he wants to say about tonight's gala."

In the footage, the host knocks on Xu Fan's door.

Xu Fan and his mother were having dinner when they heard the knocking. They didn't pay any attention and simply replied, "Come in!"

After he finished speaking, he placed a piece of tofu in Shui'er's bowl and said, "Eat a piece of tofu."

After he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the people who had entered and quickly stood up.

The reporter's accompanying photographer was carrying a camera. Although he didn't care, in this era where traffic is everything, you might be criticized by many people if you get up a little late.

At least for this moment, Xu Fan did not want this situation to occur. Even if it required some superficial work, Xu Fan was willing to do so, since doing so could avoid a lot of trouble.

However, the scene of Xu Fan serving food to Shui'er was naturally captured directly by the camera.

Therefore, just a simple picture of someone picking up food with their chopsticks went viral online.

Those who know Xu Fan are aware of some of the things he has done, such as participating in mudslides and rescuing trafficked children from human traffickers.

I made a movie, and the real-life inspiration for the character was a girl named Shui'er.

In addition, since Shui'er had previously sung a song called "Baby Come Home" with Xu Fan, countless netizens were surprised and moved when Shui'er appeared on camera.
