This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 182 We Can Burn Too!
A few days ago, after the advertisement for Shenbao tablets went viral online, it was no surprise that "Steady Happiness" rose to the top spot.

However, Cheng Yarui should not be underestimated.

No matter what, Cheng Yarui is a half-step Heavenly Empress Realm expert.

Li Haorui wasn't even considered a second-tier singer before.

However, if he were truly a second-tier singer, Star Media wouldn't have let him go.

After two days of development, the rankings have finally turned around.

"Let's congratulate Brother Shen!"

"If the song about Shenbao tablets doesn't come in first place, it would be a disservice to us netizens."

"I had never paid attention to Brother Shen before, but this song introduced me to him."

Netizens have also given Li Haorui a nickname.

In today's short-video internet era, Li Haorui's videos, which combine songs and advertisements in a somewhat absurd style, directly boosted his popularity and achieved a breakthrough effect.

It's worth noting that even after CCTV's "We Are Walking on the Road" aired, the most discussed topic among netizens was Lu Ran, followed by Bai Yiyi and Zhou Hao.

The discussion surrounding Li Haorui also stemmed from other people.

He's really not popular.

This time, he became an overnight sensation, gaining top-tier attention in a short period of time.

Many singers in the music industry are also paying attention to this matter.

"Lu Ran actually did it."

"Actually, the song 'Steady Happiness' is of good quality. If Li Haorui had Cheng Yarui's popularity, he should be able to beat it even without the help of Shenbao pills."

"Lu Ran can not only write songs for himself, but also for others."

“Li Haorui was past his prime when he was with Xingyao Media, but he became popular again under Lu Ran’s management. Lu Ran still has this ability.”

"Jiang Yaofeng is really blind. If he had gotten along well with Lu Ran back then, and Lu Ran had written songs for him, he might have been able to take things a step further."

Previously, Lu Ran wrote a song called "Full Stop" for Lin Xingchu, which is still on the hot song chart.

Now let's play another song, "Steady Happiness," tailor-made for Li Haorui to bring out the best in his voice.

This kind of person is a big shot!
I can sing and I can write.

This kind of singer can only be called an original singer; Lin Xingchu is such a singer.

Being able to write and sing your own songs, and also write songs that make others famous—that's called capital.

Many singers felt a bit envious and jealous.

In the entertainment industry, what's most important? Resources, of course.

It doesn't matter who sings the song, so why should I sing it for you?

If Li Haorui can sing "A Steady Happiness", why can't we?

We can also join the Burning Studio.

We can also leave behind more heartwarming works for this era!

We can burn too!
Some singers have already started thinking about how to get Lu Ran to write songs for them.

Besides these singers, some film and television companies have also taken notice.

Since Lu Ran can tailor-make songs for singers, he can also tailor-make songs for film and television dramas.

This will all work!
The atmosphere at Xingyao Media became somewhat gloomy.

Cheng Yarui sat in Tang Yufeng's office, her face grim.

Although she had anticipated the current result yesterday, seeing her ranking surpassed still felt different.

This is a shame.

It was even more humiliating than the last time I helped Fei Lingyun sing and was then defeated by Lu Ran and Su Qingtang.

Losing to Su Qingtang is nothing to be ashamed of, but losing to Shenbao tablets is utterly ridiculous!
Cheng Yarui opened her mouth, ready to call out "Master Guan".

She wanted to tell Tang Yufeng that his crown was gone.

Then she saw Tang Yufeng recline the back of the ergonomic chair in his desk and lie on it listening to the "Combined Edition of the Four Great Classical Novels".

"It is said that in Jinling City there was a wealthy and powerful official named Ximen Qing, who had always coveted Lin Daiyu of the Jia family. Just then, the Jia family was raided, so he bribed Wang Po, Jia Baoyu's wet nurse, with a large sum of money, hoping to take Lin Daiyu as his concubine."

Ximen Qing and Wang Po conspired to drug Jia Baoyu, leaving him outside Jinling City. They then abducted Lin Daiyu to Ximen Qing's home. Lin Daiyu refused to submit and drowned herself in a lake. Ximen Qing was terrified and quickly gathered some silver, becoming a fugitive.

Since Ximen Qing, Lin Daiyu, and Cheng Yarui all knew each other in this passage, I listened to it for a while.

At the end of the episode, Jia Baoyu becomes Tang Sanzang's disciple, and that concludes this episode.

Tang Yufeng slowly got up from the chair and noticed that Cheng Yarui's expression was not very good.

"The first place is gone?" Tang Yufeng asked.

Cheng Yarui nodded. Tang Yufeng pondered for a moment and then said, "It's not your fault. Who would have thought that Lu Ran had kidney tonics?"

Upon hearing the words "Shenbao Pian" (肾宝片), Cheng Yarui's expression turned even more unpleasant.

"Master Guan, I'll head out now."

After Cheng Yarui finished speaking, she got up and left.

Tang Yufeng picked up his phone, too lazy to even look at the rankings.

There's nothing to see here; it's not like we haven't won first place before.

He simply enjoyed the thrill of confronting Lu Ran.

This activated his brain, making his inspiration burst forth even more intensely.

Tang Yufeng opened WeChat and immediately saw Lian Xinghan's sarcastic remarks.

"Second Master, you've lost again!"

"I've already ordered Shenbao tablets for you online. Remember to sign for them upon delivery."

Tang Yufeng sent a message directly.

"How about we have a match?"

Lian Xinghan sent a provocative emoji.

"You are not worthy to compare with me. I lost to the senior artist Shunqiziran, while you lost to Lu Ran, a rising star in the music scene."

After seeing this message, Tang Yufeng suddenly realized a problem.

He has never faced the opponent of "Let Nature Take Its Course" before.

He was too busy fighting Lu Ran.

He opened the group chat that had been quiet for a long time. It contained his chat with Lian Xinghan and Shunqiziran.

Tang Yufeng: "Teacher Shunqiziran, have you been paying attention to Lu Ran's new song?"

Lien Hsing-han: "The song about the kidney tonic tablets is also called 'Steady Happiness'."

Lu Ran is still on his way to the airport.

After seeing the message, he replied, "I'm paying attention."

Before Tang Yufeng could send a message, Lian Xinghan quickly replied, "Master Guan has become the second one again."

Judging from the situation, it seemed that getting second place wouldn't have much of an impact on Tang Yufeng, otherwise even Xinghan wouldn't have made such a joke.

Tang Yufeng is a straightforward person.

Then he can't be petty.

Let nature take its course: "First and second place don't mean anything. Music isn't about winning or losing. Teacher Tang's 'The Sea in My Heart' has a clear arrangement and sincere and moving lyrics. It's a work that can stand the test of time."

He also listened to "The Sea in My Heart," which would be considered a masterpiece even in today's market.

Tang Yufeng: "Look at what Teacher Shunqizi said, and look at you, what's the point of arguing about being number one or number two all day long? The most enjoyable thing is to be able to present the song to the audience."

Lian Xinghan sent a shameful emoji.

At this moment, Lian Xinghan asked, "Teacher Shunqiziran, would you be interested in sparring with Lu Ran?"

Lu Ran was stunned when he saw the message.

What's wrong?

Do I hit myself?
Yes but not necessary.

Lu Ran replied: "You still don't understand what I mean. Our songs are written for the audience, not for sparring. The value of music lies in the resonance with the audience, not in winning or losing."

After sending this message, Lu Ran added three fist-clasping emojis.

Lian Xinghan replied with three clasped hands emojis: "I've learned a lot."

Tang Yufeng: "Learn more from Teacher Shunqiziran. He's eaten more salt than you've eaten rice."

Then Tang Yufeng also added three small clasped fist emojis.

The group chat ended there.

A while later, Lu Ran also arrived at the airport.

He received a message from Li Haorui as soon as he boarded the plane.

"Lord Lu, you've got it! You've got it! You've got it!"

Li Haorui was clearly very excited.

Lu Ran: "I've also prepared the second song for you. I just boarded the plane, and I'll tell you about the arrangements for the second song after I get off."
