Huayu 2002, I'm going to dominate the music scene!

At the same time, in Wuxi, the crew of the TV series "Treasure Basin" was present.

Fan Binbin was in her hotel room, scrolling through the news on her phone. Her father was sitting next to her, reading a script.

"Dad, have you read today's newspaper?" Fan Binbin asked.

"I've read it." Her father didn't even look up. "It's not bad; it's not scribbled anything."

Fan Binbin hummed in agreement and continued scrolling.

She searched for the words "Song Mo" and found that there were already several news articles about it.

Some posts were about the signing ceremony, while others were reposts of discussions from Tianya.

There were also one or two people who were simply guessing Song Mo's background. Who is this guy? Why would A-Du endorse him?

As she looked at it, she couldn't help but laugh.

This love triangle has been making headlines for some time now.

She was filming on set, and every day the media would come to take pictures of her, setting up their cameras and microphones outside the set like they were stalking her.

Although there were many people online criticizing them for being immoral, the reports and clarifications over the past two days have helped to change that.

That sound has disappeared quite a bit.

She also genuinely felt the benefits brought by this hype.

Putting aside other things, let's take the crew of "The Treasure Basin" who came back this time to reshoot some scenes as an example.

The cast and crew of this drama are mainly from Hong Kong. Although she is the second female lead, she has suffered a lot of mistreatment because she is a mainland actress.

During filming, someone would speak Cantonese profanities to her face. She only half understood them and could only pretend not to hear them.

After the director yelled "cut," the staff handed out water to the Hong Kong actors first, and she had to get it herself.

The makeup artist was always the last one to style her hair.

These days, it's inevitable that mainland actors will collaborate with Hong Kong and Taiwan actors.

She felt aggrieved, but there was nothing she could do. They were Hong Kong and Taiwan stars who were superior to her. What was she?

But things have been different these past few days.

The reporters were staking out outside the film set, their flashes shining through the walls.

The way the crew looked at her changed, and the tone of their voices changed too.

Zhang Weijian and Zhang Ting, who came from Hong Kong Island and Taiwan respectively, started nodding and smiling when they saw her, and occasionally even took the initiative to say a few words.

When the makeup artist touched up her makeup, her movements became much gentler.

She knew it wasn't because they suddenly liked her, but because they felt she had something to talk about.

Topics generate buzz, and buzz translates to value.

She leaned against the headboard, put down her phone, and stared at the ceiling for a few seconds.

She used to think that actors should just focus on acting and let their work speak for itself. Now she realizes that sometimes things outside of the work can also help you speak for yourself.

"What are you thinking about?" Fan Tao looked up at her.

"It's nothing," Fan Bingbing said, lowering her head. "It's just that I feel like this whole thing has turned out to be a blessing in disguise."

Fan Tao didn't reply, and lowered his head to continue reading the script.

At the same time, in Xiangshan Film and Television City, Zhejiang Province.

Gao Yuanyuan had just finished filming a scene and was resting in a corner of the set.

The assistant director handed her a bottle of water, which she unscrewed, took a sip, and then took out her phone to browse through it.

She was also watching the news.

Unlike Fan Binbin's reaction, hers was much milder.

After all, she wasn't considered a big-name actress yet, and "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" hadn't even aired yet.

Although some reporters came to Xiangshan to interview her and ask her what her relationship with Song Mo was.

She answered according to the agreed-upon line: everyone is a friend.

In the past few days, as Song Mo and Fan Binbin's clarifications and statements have spread, the matter has gradually calmed down.

She finally dared to call her parents.

A couple of days ago, her parents called one after another, but she didn't dare to answer.

However, her parents' reaction this time was a bit unexpected. Instead of blaming her for the scandal, they comforted her with words of sympathy.

This touched her deeply. Although her parents had never really approved of her becoming an actress, this time they were on her side.

"Yuanyuan, are you hiding here all by yourself, slacking off?"

A voice came from behind me, soft and with a hint of laughter.

Gao Yuanyuan turned around and saw Jia Jingwen. She was wearing a theatrical costume, her hair was tied up with a hairpin, and she was holding a bottle of water. She was walking over with a smile.

"Sister Jingwen." Gao Yuanyuan moved aside to make room for her.

Jia Jingwen sat down next to her, unscrewed the water bottle, took a sip, glanced at her sideways, and looked at her with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

"You've been making headlines these past few days," Jia Jing said with a smile. "I read the newspaper; that Song Mo, is he your boyfriend?"

Gao Yuanyuan immediately objected, "What little boyfriend? He's just a good friend."

"Yes, yes, my good friend, next time bring your good friend over so I can meet them? Let me give you my opinion." Jia Jingwen said with a mischievous grin.

Gao Yuanyuan's face flushed red instantly.

"Sister Jingwen!" she cried out, reaching out to push Jia Jingwen away. "I already said we're good friends, what nonsense are you spouting!"

Jia Jing was pushed to the side by Wen, and laughed even harder, almost spitting out the water in her mouth: "We all say we're good friends, so why are you blushing?"

Gao Yuanyuan opened her mouth, but realized she couldn't win the argument, so she simply stopped talking and reached out to tickle Jia Jingwen's waist.

Jia Jingwen is extremely ticklish, and when she was tickled, she kept dodging, laughing and shouting, "Okay, okay, I won't say anymore! I won't say anymore, alright?"

The two of them were making a ruckus in the corner.

"Yuanyuan! Jingwen! Get ready for the next scene!" the director called out from the other end.

Jia Jingwen stood up first, patted the dust off her skirt, glanced back at Gao Yuanyuan, and said with a suppressed laugh, "Remember, bring it over for me to see when you're ready."

Without waiting for Gao Yuanyuan's reaction, he turned and left, his steps light and quick.

She is a few years older than Gao Yuanyuan and started acting to support her family at a young age, so she is much more mature than her peers.

However, she could never help but tease Gao Yuanyuan in front of her.

Perhaps it's because she possesses something that she has always longed for but lacked.

Song Mo, in Yanjing, was far from idle.

In the past few days, he has given Bi Xiaoshi a few more songs.

Seeing how fast Song Mo was moving, Bi Xiaoshi couldn't sit still any longer. In his opinion, it would be best if Lin Qiuli was willing to be the producer.

However, after several attempts to test the waters, they remained unmoved.

With no other option, he eventually found Guo Liang, who is known as a "master of arrangement" and is one of the most sought-after producers in the mainland music scene in recent years.

They collaborated with top-tier artists in the music industry, such as Faye Wong, Nayoung, and Sun Nan.

This is because Bi Xiaoshi has enough influence to persuade Guo Liang to produce an album for a newcomer like Song Mo.

To show respect, Bi Xiaoshi personally took Song Mo to Guo Liang's studio on their first meeting.

The studio is located in a creative park converted from an old factory in Chaoyang District. The exterior walls still retain the rough texture of red bricks, but the interior is clean and tidy.

The corridor was covered with various record posters, from Faye Wong to Na Ying to Sun Nan, covering almost half of the big names in the Chinese music scene.

Bi Xiaoshi entered Guo Liang's office first, gesturing for Song Mo to wait outside.

Song Mo nodded and started strolling around outside.

I had only taken a couple of steps when I heard a burst of laughter coming from ahead.

The two people were walking out of another room, talking as they went.

The one on the left has short hair, wears sunglasses and a black jacket, and walks with a confident stride.

The one on the right is wearing a baseball cap and a loose hoodie, holding a stack of papers, and talking to the person next to him.
