This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 417 Playing the long game to catch the big fish
Lian Xinghan felt a little relieved after seeing the words "let nature take its course".

Last year, when Lu Ran participated in "Future Singer", Shunqi Ziran wrote songs for Lu Ran.

Although that song "The Nation" was probably written out of consideration for Su Qingtang.

But by then, it was only natural that she would get to know Lu Ran.

The two collaborated so many times afterward, their relationship must have been quite good for them to work together for so long.

Haven't you seen how many people in the entertainment industry want Shunqizizi to write songs for them, but none of them have?

"Will it not change because of any public opinion? Is the relationship really that strong?"

Lian Xinghan still had some doubts.

Tang Yufeng also saw Lu Ran's reply to him.

"Okay, okay, I guess the two of them really have a good relationship."

He also told Lian Xinghan about it.

"Then it should be fine."

“We can’t stop public opinion, but it’s enough as long as the two parties involved know the truth.”

The two of them didn't pay any more attention to it.

Meanwhile, Su Qingtang also sent a message.

"What are you up to?"

Su Qingtang felt that Lu Ran had gone mad after watching the live stream.

Lu Ran simply told him about Ren Xin coming to find him after the recording of the King of Singers ended.

Su Qingtang quickly realized what was happening.

Although she's not in the entertainment industry, things are actually pretty much the same in all walks of life.

Xingyao Media wanted to let things take their course, but everyone knew that Xingyao Media and Lu Ran didn't get along.

So let Shunqiziran and Lu Ran have a conflict first, then there will be a chance for Shunqiziran to join Xingyao Media. This is a prerequisite.

If Shunqiziran and Lu Ran are two different people, then Xingyao Media's underhanded manipulation could really cause conflict between them.

"Three men can make a tiger"—rumors can have power.

The only problem is that Shunqiziran and Lu Ran are the same person.

These tricks will not work at all and will only backfire.

Thinking of this, Su Qingtang almost burst out laughing.

She had never seen anything so interesting in her entire life.

"Are you trying to sabotage Xingyao Media?"

"Yes."

"You have succeeded."

"not enough."

Where is this?

The fact that it's been exposed now is only upsetting for Mr. Guo, the CEO of Xingyao Media.

If you're going to embarrass someone, you have to make them lose face in front of the whole nation.

Lu Ran needs to continue extending the fishing line.

"Teacher Su, you must keep this a secret for me. If you're willing to keep it a secret, I'll write another song for you."

Su Qingtang smiled when she saw this sentence.

She could almost picture Lu Ran's expression.

Lu Ran was genuinely asking for it to be kept secret.

If this gets leaked, things will be over.

"The fan club promised to write a song for me, so there's no need for another one. If I have the chance later, I'd like to act in this play too."

"Isn't this inappropriate? Guo Weicheng will keep a record of this."

"Let him write it down, what can he do to me?"

"That's true. We'll see later. If there's anything you'd like to do, I'll call you."

"It's a word."

After chatting with Su Qingtang, Lu Ran sent a message to Zhou Ruiyang.

Among those who knew his identity, Zhou Ruiyang was an absolute outsider.

After all, Shen Fupo was on his side, and Jin Hong had a stake in their interests; their relationship was very stable.

Zhou Ruiyang doesn't have this kind of connection.

However, Lu Ran believed in the system's character assessment and concluded that Zhou Ruiyang was a trustworthy person.

As expected, Zhou Ruiyang also agreed to keep Lu Ran's secret.

"Judging from your tone, you're planning to reveal your identity on The Masked Singer?" Zhou Ruiyang asked.

"Yes, I'm not trying to create a music award, but it needs to be something significant."

"You played that trick brilliantly, kid. I'll bring my company people to support you when you win that music award."

"Thank you, Teacher Zhou."

Zhou Ruiyang: "I guess Xingyao Media wants to hire you as their music director, not Lu Ran. It's just a natural progression."

Zhou Ruiyang told Lu Ran about Xingyao Media.

He knows someone who works at Xingyao Media. Tang Yufeng's current situation is not good.

It can be really annoying when infighting breaks out in big companies.

This is precisely not Tang Yufeng's forte.

Tang Yufeng hasn't released a single new song yet; he genuinely can't write any.

Lu Ran: "Do you think I have a chance to poach Tang Yufeng from my company?"

Zhou Ruiyang was somewhat surprised.

"You're really bold, but it's not like there's no chance."

Lu Ran and Zhou Ruiyang began to plot.

As the saying goes, "An elder in the family is a treasure." Zhou Ruiyang has been in the industry for a long time and is also a music director.

I know a lot of things, many of which are unknown to outsiders.

After talking with Zhou Ruiyang, Lu Ran had a better understanding of the situation.

Ren Xin made a voice call on the WeChat account "Shunqi Ziran".

"Finally here."

With Xingyao Media stirring up so much controversy tonight, how could I not ask a few questions?

Lu Ran answered the phone and said in a natural tone, "Hello."

Ren Xin's tone was one of feigned enthusiasm.

"Teacher, I'm so sorry to disturb your rest so late."

Ren Xin continued, "I've seen what's going on online. I've already spoken to the marketing accounts we know and asked them to suppress this public opinion. We didn't expect things to escalate like this."

Ren Xin was very concerned.

If Lu Ran hadn't known, he would have almost been deceived.

This is the trick you guys are up to!
"The current network environment is indeed not very good," Lu Ran said slowly.

"Teacher, no matter what, Lu Ran is still your junior. You even wrote a few songs for him. He shouldn't have sung 'General's Order' targeting you."

Lu Ran pretended to be unaware of the situation.

"What general's order?"

Ren Xin immediately told Lu Ran.

Lu Ran's tone became somewhat angry.

"This Lu Ran, he can even write songs to refute me now."

Upon hearing this, Ren Xin sensed the natural shift in Shunqi's emotions.

"Teacher, please don't be angry. Lu Ran was probably influenced by public opinion."

This art of speaking made Lu Ran sigh that the adult world was too dirty.

Back in college, the simple father-son relationship in the dormitory was the best.

You start trouble, you settle things, and I still have to say thank you.

This is Star Media.

"No need to say anything more, I'm going to sleep."

Lu Ran didn't say anything more and hung up the phone.

Ren Xin was basically relieved.

Things seemed to be making no progress, and it appeared that she wasn't planning to take any further action, but she knew that a rift had already formed, and it was just a matter of how wide that rift would become.

Overnight, the public opinion surrounding Lu Ran and Shunqiziran continued to ferment online.

Some fans of hip-hop groups and Shining Trainees started watching the spectacle.

In the hip-hop group, some contestants also participated in the discussion, praising Shunqi and criticizing Lu Ran.

Everyone dislikes Lu Ran.

But the next day, Hip Hop Club and Shining Trainees were attacked by netizens.

It's important to know that "General's Command" is a pure Chinese-style rap song.

If you say this song is about letting things take their course, that's not necessarily true.

But it was definitely targeted at the contestants from Hip Hop Club and Shining Trainees.

Lu Ran's casually written songs are better than yours, what is your show doing?

Xiang Zihang, who topped the popularity charts for Shining Trainees, has had his reputation damaged.

Guo Weicheng was helpless after learning about this.

To let things take their course, Xiang Zihang can only suffer a bit.

The next morning, Mrs. Shen contacted Lu Ran.

"Teacher Shunqiziran, Teacher Yunzhongque just expressed her condolences to you, hoping that the online opinions would not affect your mood, and asked what song you will be singing in the competition?"

On the Masked Singer side, the assistants were responsible for communicating with the two singers using accounts provided by the production team.

After Ren Xin approached him last night, Lu Ran had an idea.

Lu Ran has written "General's Order," so it's time to make his move naturally.

How can we lure Guo Weicheng into our trap without making any moves?
