Chapter 104 Conflict
Lu Yanhe had considered all of Li Zhi's many ideas.
However, given the size of Star Entertainment, how many people would risk offending Zhou Ping'an and the people behind him to snatch him away?
Lu Yanhe didn't hold out much hope.
He said, "It all depends on the opportunity. I need to start studying now. In any case, the college entrance examination is always my biggest chance."
All told, Lu Yanhe had only been seriously studying for less than a month, but Li Zhibai was also slowly changing his mindset.
He found himself starting to believe, almost to some extent, that Lu Yanhe might actually be able to get into a good university through a year of hard work.

At the recording site of "Little Songs Gathering", after Yan Liang finished singing "Chasing the Wind", the main creators of the production team looked at each other and saw a hint of disappointment in each other's eyes.
To be fair, Yan Liang sang quite well; he is a genuinely talented singer. However, after experiencing Lu Yanhe's performance of "Remembrance," they had high expectations for Yan Liang, whom Lu Yanhe recommended, hoping he could deliver an even better performance.
Although Yan Liang was an emergency replacement with no time for rehearsal, that's how people are; deep down, they always hope for a miracle.
None of the performances in this episode seem capable of generating widespread dissemination and discussion.
Hou Jun sighed and said to the others in the control room, "It's already a blessing that this episode was able to be recorded smoothly."
Hou Jun's reminder made everyone realize that if Yan Liang hadn't come to the rescue, this episode would have been cancelled.
There wasn't enough time to fill the time.
The singers participating in this episode include Liu Zhilan and Qin Zhibai, who recorded with Lu Yanhe last time, as well as a relatively well-known female singer, Xu Weiyang.
During the subsequent meal and chat segment, Yan Liang actively showcased himself. That's just his style—seizing every opportunity to appear on camera.
Liu Zhilan knew that he and Lu Yanhe were from the same group, and asked curiously, "Does Lu Yanhe often write songs?"
Yan Liang was taken aback.
Because there were cameras filming, he didn't know whether to tell the truth or a lie.
The truth, of course, is that he had never seen Lu Yanhe write a song. But if he said that, then the previous song "Remembrance" seemed a bit strange.
Yan Liang concluded by saying, "He's been busy studying lately, I haven't seen him write anything."
That's true, so it's not like he's lying.
"He works so hard?" Liu Zhilan was somewhat surprised.
Yan Liang nodded and said with a smile, "He works very hard. Every day after finishing his evening self-study at school, he will livestream for a few more hours. The content of his livestream is reading books and doing exercises."
Liu Zhilan and Xu Weiyang were both surprised.
Xu Weiyang asked, "Is he a top student? Does he have excellent grades?"
Yan Liang found himself in an awkward situation again.
We just praised Lu Yanhe for his hard work in his studies, so it's not appropriate to say that Lu Yanhe is actually only ranked around 300th in the grade.
Yan Liang said, "He spent most of his time rehearsing before, and only recently started to study seriously. But he is very good. He made great progress in the last exam, improving by more than 200 places."
Xu Weiyang blinked and laughed.
"Such a big improvement? Could it be because his grades were so bad before that he was able to improve so much?"
Xu Weiyang's words carried a hint of sarcasm.
Yan Liang didn't know what to say.
Because Lu Yanhe's grades used to be really bad. He just didn't understand why Xu Weiyang would directly mock Lu Yanhe. His point was that Lu Yanhe had made great progress recently.
He felt inexplicably anxious, fearing that if this segment were broadcast, it would have a negative impact on Lu Yanhe.
He realized he had said the wrong thing, steer the conversation in a direction unfavorable to Lu Yanhe.
Just then, Qin Zhibai suddenly asked, "Were your grades very good when you were in school?"
He was asking Xu Weiyang.
Xu Weiyang's face, which had been carrying a mocking smile, froze instantly.
She frowned, looking at Qin Zhibai with incomprehension.
"Um?"
Qin Zhibai said, "It sounds like you used to have excellent grades, otherwise how could you have the audacity to mock someone who is trying to improve?"
Xu Weiyang's face darkened instantly.
"Are you being sarcastic?" she said, her face dark and her tone unfriendly.
Qin Zhibai didn't care at all and shrugged.
-
"Huh? Qin Zhibai and Xu Weiyang had a conflict? Because of me?"
At 1:30 a.m., Yan Liang returned from recording the show and found that Lu Yanhe was still awake, so he told him what had happened at the recording site.
Lu Yanhe was shocked.
First, he was shocked by the occurrence of this event; second, he was shocked that Qin Zhibai would speak up for him.
"Are you and Qin Zhibai on good terms?" Yan Liang asked. "Everyone on set was stunned at the time, and the recording was even interrupted. Xu Weiyang was so angry that she left the recording site."
“He and I…” Lu Yanhe thought carefully for a moment, then shook his head, “We didn’t exchange more than a few words.”
"So he just had a sudden outburst of righteous indignation?" Li Zhibai was also surprised. "Then how did the rest of the program get filmed?"
“The two of them recorded separately,” Yan Liang said. “If it weren’t for this incident, I would have been back an hour ago. But Qin Zhibai seems to have quite a background. Xu Weiyang’s agent went to the production team to demand an explanation, and it caused quite a stir. Then someone came and spoke a few words to Xu Weiyang’s agent, and her agent immediately calmed things down.”
Lu Yanhe nodded: "I've also heard that Qin Zhibai's family has quite a background, and even Chen Ziliang is quite polite to him."
"No wonder, he didn't give Xu Weiyang any face at all."
Lu Yanhe yawned.
"It's too late, I need to go to sleep."
Yan Liang nodded.
After Lu Yanhe returned to his room, Yan Liang and Li Zhibai, those two night owls, were still sitting in the living room.
Yan Liang asked in confusion, "Doesn't he usually go to sleep at one o'clock? Why isn't he asleep yet at this time today?"
"I don't know." Li Zhibai shook his head. "This matter hasn't affected you, has it?"
"No," Yan Liang said. "Actually, I was also very angry at the time, but I didn't dare to confront him like Qin Zhibai did on the spot. Sigh, if I hadn't mentioned Lao Lu, Xu Weiyang wouldn't have had the chance to satirize him. I hope this part won't be broadcast. Before leaving, I also asked the production team to cut this part out."
He looked embarrassed, clearly annoyed and uneasy about his performance.
Li Zhibai said, "This has nothing to do with you. Don't take all the blame on yourself."
Cut it off?
Li Zhi thought to himself, "That might not be the case."
When two guests clash, it's a natural topic of conversation and a gimmick. Any program that encounters this is in for a treat—the program is sure to attract a lot of attention and discussion.
