Love Variety Show: The despised me exploded in popularity

He found the post, then forwarded it with a reply.

[In my heart, the "Qing Tian" I cherish is only the Party and the people; I don't care for anything else.]

He also got the chat screenshot from Pei Muchan, not coddling the drama crew in the slightest. He would stand up to the "I am a Singer" program team, let alone a small drama crew.

"Disdaining someone for not being famous enough, you can choose not to select their song. Better mind your own business more instead of hyping things up; you're no strangers to wealth, to cancel Qing Tian's contract, just say the word."

"Let's not work together in the future, and if any of my words have hurt your drama crew, please tell me, I can repeat them."

Swoosh, the post was sent out directly.

In an instant, like pouring oil on a fire, the post sparked flames everywhere.

In just ten minutes, the post was shared five hundred times. Likes exceeded two thousand, with six hundred comments.

"Holy shit, so tough, could it be that him... he's back in the game?"

"Hahaha, I'm dying, Teacher Xu is literally beating up the capital with bare hands. What's with that enlightened little mouth of his? So many people to mess with, they just had to poke him."

"Gotta admit, talent is king! Doesn't hoard Koenigsegg fragments, just this alone makes me respect Teacher Xu."

"Honestly, I thought he took up the script just for the reality show, and I kinda disliked Xu Qingyan during that time. But later, I realized that's just how he is, tough as nails!"

"Holy crap, Teacher Xu is at it again, indifferent to life and death, if you refuse to submit, fight?"

"LMAO, I actually watched that drama and thought it was alright. Now let's see how they respond. Buying his song and then mocking him for not being popular enough, really, they're disgraceful."

"This time it's the drama crew that's disgraceful; in comparison, Xu Qingyan comes off as righteous. Truly a magical world, a complete flip of the script."

"The episode that fits his persona best, good for a rant."

Pei Muchan sat in front of the computer, browsing through the comments under the post, slightly getting a headache. Her phone, lying aside, vibrated non-stop, calls from the drama crew.

She lifted her head, her face a mix of laughter and tears.

"What do we do now, Boss Xu?"

"It's okay, I'll handle it." Xu Qingyan didn't care at all, walked over to the desk, and answered the phone, "Hello, this is Cicada Chant Studio."

The director on the other end of the line paused for a moment, having just received the news. After understanding what had happened, he quickly called Pei Muchan to apologize.

The issue of who was responsible wasn't important; what mattered most was deleting posts and controlling public opinion to avoid affecting the normal airing of the show.

The director glanced at the number, confirming it was a personal number and he hadn't dialed wrong. He thought to himself, why had it switched to Cicada Chant Studio again? But that was beside the point, so he said humbly.

"Hello, I am Sun Yang, the director of 'Blossoms Along the Journey'. Is Ms. Pei available to talk?"

Xu Qingyan stood beside her, watching Pei Muchan still engrossed in her mobile game, and without missing a beat, he said,

"Our boss has just passed away... ouch!"

Pei Muchan gave him a twist, slowly released her grip, and even threw him a couple of warning glances. Signaling him not to talk nonsense and to be serious.

"Apologies, it was our work negligence. Our crew was unaware of the staff member's remarks and is also a victim; it's all a misunderstanding."

"We will handle this matter seriously and give your company a proper explanation. Here, I would like to apologize once again to Ms. Pei and your company and hope for your forgiveness."

"If we could just...." Stay connected via empire

"Sorry, our boss is unwell and has gone home to rest," replied Xu Qingyan, curling his lips, completely not buying it, "All that you're saying, Director Sun, I can't decide as a mere employee."

"How about this, Director Sun, you can tell me anything you want to say to our boss on the next workday. As it's a misunderstanding and doesn't sound too urgent, I don't see a need to talk about it now."

The director, Sun, on the other end of the phone, was taken aback. If he didn't understand what the other party meant by now, he would have been in the industry for nothing.

"To express our apologies, we are willing to draft a new contract."

Click, the call was disconnected.

Pei Muchan let him be, knowing that no matter what, it seemed like a losing battle. What compensation could be given for those casual words?

From the beginning, there had been conflicts between the two parties.

It could be said that 'Blossoms Along the Journey' just had to seek trouble, couldn't control their staff, and loved to promote some while putting down others to chase clout. As for the so-called 'staff personal actions', that was nothing but nonsense.

A production crew, even an artist's team, often verifies the saying: "If the upper beam is not straight, the lower ones will go aslant," a case of birds of a feather flocking together.

After years in the business, why still play pretend as if they were in a storybook?

When he heard Director Sun mention drafting a new contract, Xu Qingyan hung up right away. The show had already aired, and here they were, trying to draft a new contract.

"Forget about it for now, just hang on; just don't respond, and that'll be enough," Xu Qingyan handed the phone back to Pei Muchan, "Let them deal with their mess."

After saying that, he asked,

"Not angry anymore, right?"

Upon hearing this, Pei Muchan pursed her lips and turned her head away.

Xu Qingyan let out a smile, relieved, thankful that he hadn't wasted "The Wind Rises" on this drama crew.

...

Meanwhile, Lin Wanzhou found out about the news only in the afternoon.

Her work schedule had been similar to Pei Muchan's, soaked in composing music in the studio every day, crafting new songs and running them by Xu Qingyan.

Seeing the cover of "Qing Tian" go viral, she couldn't help but feel a bit down. She had planned to do the cover herself but never found the right opportunity, and now it seemed... a bit redundant.

After glancing over the post about the conflict between Xu Qingyan and the drama crew, Lin Wanzhou wasn't too concerned.
