The Queen's Rumored Father

After Long Bo finished filming, all filming at Xiangshan Film City was completed in less than a week. For most people, their work was done.

Xu Yuan, Lei Jiayin, and others followed Chen Kewen to a wasteland to continue filming outdoor scenes, mainly Zhang Xiaojing's memories of the beacon tower.

After about three days of filming on location, The Longest Day in Chang'an was officially wrapped!

Afterwards, Meng Xiaoxuan returned to Beijing and attended some necessary events with Haoyue. She had disappeared for more than three months and needed to make a proper comeback to let the public feel her real presence.

Walk a few red carpets and hold a large-scale fan meeting for Xu Yuan and Xu Ke.

Although Haoyue Films can still make money from it, at least it gives back to the fans who support Meng Xiaoxuan.

Xu Yuan spent a few days with Chen Kewen, completing the voice acting for Long Bo and also learning about post-production editing and other tasks. These kinds of things are usually off-limits to others unless you have a very close relationship with them.

Judging from the footage we've seen, this era of Chang'an is even more spectacular than the previous one.

Especially in the last few episodes, thanks to Xu Yuan's reminder, the awkwardness of the slightly broken plot of the previous life was eliminated.

At Xu Yuan's suggestion, the ending was changed from color to black and white.

When the black-and-white ending appeared, Cao Dun and Chen Kewen were stunned.

This is the feeling they want!

This is a dark fairy tale!

Beep beep!

Xu Yuan's phone rang.

"explain."

Half a minute later, Xu Yuan hung up the phone, his face expressionless.

"Is it about Yang Ying?" Chen Kewen overheard a bit.

"Yang Ying's new album has been released and the response has been very good. Two of the songs are likely to be hits," Xu Yuan said.

"A new album? Hasn't 'General and I' finished filming yet?" Cao Dun asked, puzzled.

"The crew of 'General and I' was quite dissatisfied with Yang Ying's behavior this time. From the director to the screenwriter, especially the male lead, they were furious. But they were all suppressed by Hua Ce," Chen Kewen said. "Ninety percent of Yang Ying's outdoor scenes were created using green screen technology. During filming, she completed her second solo album, which is the one that has just been released."

Doing other things while acting is a very unethical thing to do.

Especially when you haven't done your job well.

The actors may not know how good "General and I" is since they haven't seen the final cut, but the female lead is almost entirely absent from the film. How good can it be?

The male lead of "General and I" is a top-tier actor in China, with the potential to become a super-top-tier actor. After watching the finished film, he reportedly called Yang Ying's agent and gave her a thorough dressing-down.

But every loss has its gain.

Yang Ying's new film seems to be of poor quality, but her album has been rewarded for her dedicated efforts.

Entertainment in Retrospect: Pop diva Yang Ying makes a comeback, with her album dominating the charts!

Rampage Mini Events: Album Promise, Yang Ying Takes the Lead Again, New Album Has Many Great Songs, Two Songs Have Topped the New Song Chart!

Entertainment Weekly: Good things come to those who wait, and the pop diva has finally proven herself! Two of her hit singles have broken into the top ten of the Tencent Music Pop Chart!

Netizens were also abuzz with Yang Ying's new album, especially her fans, who had been hesitant to post online for a long time after their last new song's failure. This time, they finally had the chance to reveal their identities.

"To be honest, if it weren't for that bit of luck before, Yang Ying's single 'Born to Work Hard' would have had a chance to enter the top of the pop charts."

"Yeah, we lost terribly last time. But last time it was just for fun, this time the album we made seriously is obviously much better."

"The quality is exceptionally high; now we just need Meng Xiaoxuan to face her."

"One song reached number ten on the pop charts, another number five; Yang Ying is going to dominate the charts this time!"

"Her momentum is strong; these two songs can still push her to new heights."

After three months, Yang Ying has finally regained the upper hand in public opinion.

However, having learned from the previous experience, many major newspapers and influential bloggers have not yet spoken out.

If they speak without knowing Meng Xiaoxuan's side of the matter, they could easily be proven wrong.

Most people believe that Meng Xiaoxuan still has the ability to fight back.

After all, Yang Ying had so many scenes in "General and I," yet she still managed to find the time to create a high-quality album.

Meng Xiaoxuan has far fewer scenes in Chang'an, giving her an advantage in terms of screen time.

Moreover, Yan Zhenqing seems unafraid of Hua Ce's threats; he's a werewolf.

However, the internet became abuzz in less than half a day.

Haoyue Film & Television's official Weibo account, along with Meng Xiaoxuan's former manager Wu Jinlong, posted messages saying: "Thank you everyone for your attention to Xiaoxuan. Regarding the new album, because Xiaoxuan has high standards, we are still in the midst of a busy song selection process, and the album has not yet entered the production stage. We hope everyone can give Xiaoxuan more time. Thank you for your support."

One Weibo post went viral!

"What? Production hasn't even started yet? Is this a surrender without a fight?"

"High standards? How high are your standards? So sarcastic and harsh!"

"There's no need for that. I think Meng Xiaoxuan is scared, after all, Yang Ying is stronger in terms of raw power."

"Which eye upstairs has a problem? I'll fix it for you. Didn't you see how Meng Xiaoxuan beat Yang Ying so badly she didn't dare to show her face for the first three months? What's with the force!"

"Insufficient resources—that's the resource gap!"

"Strange, even if Haoyue wasn't prepared, there's no need for her to post this on Weibo, is it? Does this mean she's admitting defeat?"

"My Xuanxuan is going against the grain, but the company keeps holding her back. Haoyue Film and Television is really enough! Meng Xiaoxuan should switch companies as soon as possible!"

"Didn't Haoyue have three new actresses cast in a new drama last week? And they even got the second female lead! That drama was invested in by Huace, so there's clearly a deal involved!"

There are quite a few people online who can see it clearly.

Haoyue Film and Television is making money off Meng Xiaoxuan while also using her to cultivate new leading actresses.

Because Meng Xiaoxuan is disobedient!

Because Meng Xiaoxuan is blocking Yang Ying's path, she is destined to fall. Rather than going head-to-head with Hua Ce, it's better to sacrifice Meng Xiaoxuan and create a new profit center for the company.

As a small to medium-sized talent agency, Haoyue Film and Television's approach is very professional.

He was also very cowardly.

"I apologize to both of you. I'll have to go to Xiaoxuan's place now," Xu Yuan said apologetically.

Chen Kewen and Cao Dun expressed their understanding.

Xu Yuan had already reached the door when he suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, if I may ask something I shouldn't, has Chang'an decided on a broadcasting platform? Is it a TV station or an online broadcast?"

This issue involves trade secrets and shouldn't have been told to Xu Yuan.

But Chen Kewen is in charge of this matter, and it has already been finalized. Given his relationship with Xu Yuan, it wouldn't be a problem for him to speak up.

"It's settled. It will be broadcast simultaneously on Hunan TV and Mango TV, both online," Chen Kewen said. "Perfect timing, the later promotions will also be done on Happy Camp, so it all goes well together."

"Their station really values ​​our project."

"The main problem is that we can't buy Gu Fang." Cao Dun was a straightforward person.

"We're going to the main camp? That's good." Xu Yuan said goodbye.

In the previous life, although He Jiong from Happy Camp wasn't involved in the planning of the "Singer" program, he actually played a significant role in its preparation. The program's success was inseparable from him. He was somewhat like an assistant director, coordinating many relationships and wielding considerable influence.

Meeting with He Jiong would likely help in determining the singer slots.

Xu Yuan was already thinking about how to leave a good impression on Teacher He.

However, the most urgent task is to release that song.

Otherwise, there would be no need to meet Teacher He; they would have been passed over immediately.
