Chapter 154

In the days that followed, Lu Xuan and Su Yao didn't go out.

Until Li Hao returned from Kyoto.

"What happy occasion did you run into?"

Li Hao and Lu Xuan met in People's Square.

He saw the change in Lu Xuan at a glance.

Like the rising sun, full of vigor!

Lu Xuan's expression was calm, with a slight upturn to his lips: "Nothing."

"Really?"

Li Hao looked him up and down suspiciously.

He always felt that his good brother was hiding something from him.

But he didn't delve into it and began to talk about serious matters.

"My grandpa has already given the heads-up over at the review board."

"As long as we finish the film here, they can arrange it over there."

Lu Xuan couldn't help but sigh: "That's great!"

It's good to have someone at the top!

Film censorship is actually very troublesome.

Take the New Year's档 (dàng - release window) for example. People usually see a lot of movies, but these movies are only a small part.

As for the other movies, it's because they didn't pass the censorship.

So they are stuck and can't be released.

Of course, this is also related to the movie itself.

As long as it doesn't violate certain regulations, it won't be stuck for too long.

*Dying to Survive* is an exception.

Its release was definitely inseparable from the help of Old Man Li.

Otherwise, any random reason could have kept the film from being released for years!

It was also because of this film that Old Man Li valued Lu Xuan.

That's why there was a series of collaborations later.

It's just that the movie required by Old Man Li has a greater impact than *Dying to Survive*.

So even Old Man Li had to take his time.

Li Hao also nodded.

"Yeah."

If it wasn't for his grandfather, it definitely wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

When he thought of his grandfather's increasingly aging face, Li Hao's expression became complicated.

He had previously been angry with his grandfather.

He said that he could make a name for himself in the film industry.

But his grandfather didn't think Li Hao could, and was still lacking.

So the two made a bet.

If Li Hao didn't make a name for himself within five years, then he would have to become Old Man Li's apprentice and study by his side.

Typical failure to start a business, so go home and inherit the family property.

If Li Hao made a name for himself, then Old Man Li would leave him alone.

For this bet.

Li Hao quarreled with Old Man Li until his face turned red.

Old Man Li doesn't talk much to outsiders.

But in terms of arguing with his grandson.

Even Fei Qing couldn't bear to watch.

Fortunately, Li Hao was resilient, otherwise anyone else would have been scolded to tears!

Now it's different.

With his and Lu Xuan's mutual help.

The combination of the two can be regarded as making a name for themselves in the mainland film and television industry.

Don't look at Li Hao being a deputy director most of the time.

But he is the one who runs the business.

So in the film and television industry, more people are familiar with Li Hao.

Lu Xuan is more like a behind-the-scenes big Boss.

Not many people have talked to him face-to-face.

In addition to his career.

Lu Xuan is like a bridge of communication.

Built between Li Hao and Old Man Li.

Now the relationship between the grandfather and grandson is much better. Old Man Li personally asked Li Hao to go back for the New Year.

Li Hao said no on the surface.

But he had already booked the tickets in secret.

So Li Hao is very grateful to Lu Xuan in his heart.

In all aspects.

"In short, leave these things to me."

Li Hao took a deep breath and said.

All he can do is help Lu Xuan handle these small things.

Lu Xuan didn't speak.

There's no need to say too much between brothers.

After chatting for a while, Li Hao left.

He packed an egg pancake, with two slices of tenderloin!

Lu Xuan treated him!

After the two separated, Li Hao went to supervise the post-production of the film, and Lu Xuan was not idle either.

He drove to pick up Su Yao.

Then the two went to Xingzui together.

They spent an afternoon.

Recording all the background music for *Dwelling on Earth*.

The two are regulars here.

So when they saw Lu Xuan once again using his own strength to make and sing the Bgm for his new movie, the staff didn't feel anything in their hearts.

"Happy New Year, Xiao Li, goodbye."

Lu Xuan greeted the front desk.

After swiping his card, he left with Su Yao's arm in his.

Tianqi Music has a lot of things to do after the New Year, so he didn't bother Li Yaowen.

"..."

The front desk Xiao Li was used to it.

She waved with a smile.

Then she looked at Su Yao's back with envy.

Being able to meet a man like Lu Xuan is really enviable for every woman.

Coming out of Xingzui.

Lu Xuan called Xiao Long.

The Golden Bell Competition will start in a few days, and he needs to ask some things.

Xiao Long: "Teacher Lu, Happy New Year."

"Yeah, Happy New Year."

"How's the Golden Bell Competition going? Any news?"

Before the New Year, Xiao Long entrusted Lu Xuan to create another song.

But he just asked him to do his best.

So Lu Xuan wanted to know if it was necessary to do it again.

Xiao Long's tone was a bit serious.

"The situation is very serious!"

"I heard from my teacher that someone has bribed some judges, wanting to suppress the domestic participating songs in the final judge scoring."

Hearing this, Lu Xuan frowned.

"Are these people so blatant?"

"The Golden Bell Competition is also the most formal music competition anyway."

"Doesn't anyone care?"

If it's really as he thought, then it's estimated that some people's foundations have already rotted!

Xiao Long said helplessly: "There's no way around it."

"You may not know, the atmosphere of the entire Chinese music scene has changed now."

"On the Music Billboard and Music Radio Chart."

"Half of the Korean songs have already appeared!"

These two charts.

They are both very representative charts among the current domestic music charts.

Many people listen to songs, looking for them from these two charts.

And Korean songs are very popular on the charts.

Occupying more than 70% of the positions.

Chinese music is weak, and Korean music is strong.

And the weaker are getting weaker, and the stronger are getting stronger!

For listeners.

As long as it sounds good, I don't care if it's Chinese or Korean.

But for every Chinese music producer, it is a shame.

"Korean music is gradually eroding the entire domestic market!"

"So it's reasonable for the judges to make this choice."

Xiao Long sighed rather helplessly.

This is the general trend!

His own strength is already somewhat beyond his ability.

If it wasn't for Lu Xuan, Xiao Long wouldn't know what to do.

Thinking of this, Xiao Long said with a smile.

"By the way, Teacher Lu, I listened to your song *The Ordinary Road*."

"Whether it's the melody or the choice of words, it has reached an extremely high level."

"I believe it will soon rush to the top of various charts."

"Even my teacher praised it after listening!"

"Guess what he said."

Lu Xuan came back to his senses, thought for a moment and said.

"Stronger than a hundred Xiao Longs?"

"??? How do you know! Did you install a bug on me?"

Xiao Long was immediately dumbfounded.

Who is actually related to Tu Hong as a teacher and student?

How does it feel that Lu Xuan knows Tu Hong better than him!

"However, it's not a hundred, it's a thousand!"

"Tsk tsk tsk."

Lu Xuan knew that he was teasing, and the two laughed together.

Then, Lu Xuan asked seriously.

"Then, about this competition, how much chance does Teacher Tu Hong have of winning?"

Xiao Long thought for a while and answered irrelevantly.

"At that time, I'm afraid you will need to be there in person."
