Wei Zhigian:
It wasn’t easy for him to coax his eldest brother-in-law, was he being despised by his second brother-in-law now?
Tan Jinheng scratched his head and explained, “If you go there, the program team won’t dare to have any other ideas. They might even make me the champion. Even if I don’t emerge champion, they might just give me a second place.”
“Tm going to participate in the singing competition because I want to advance based on my ability. If I’m eliminated, it’s because I wasn’t capable enough.” Tan Jinsheng paused and frowned slightly before continuing, “But if they arrange for me to advance or be eliminated because of others, I won’t
participate in the show.”
Everyone looked at him in surprise. Tan Jinsheng laughed, “Do you really think I’m stupid?”
Tan Jinsheng glanced at Wei Zhigian, and said, “Just now… Brother-in-law has already said that much. How can I not understand?”
“It’s no secret that all kinds of reality shows are scripted nowadays.’Singing Voice’ probably has one too. I’m not famous yet, so I can’t get any special treatment just by relying on a few songs. If the Star Guest station is going to make use of people, then they’re probably planning on using me to ride on the
popularity of ‘Broken Continent.”
“Mn any case, I’ll go there and take a look at the situation tomorrow and adapt to it.”
“It’s fine if Brother Zhigian doesn’t go, but Big Brother and I must go,” Tan Mo said. “Don’t worry, Star Guest Station’s program team won’t give Big Brother any face.”
Tan Jingi: “..”
Although it was the truth, saying it like that still hurt a little.
“Although ‘Broken Continent’ is popular, it’s still within the scope of an online drama, It’s also Big Brother’s first drama, so it’s hard to say what will happen in the future. As a veteran TV station, Star Guest station had always been arrogant. They have their sights set on a certain range of people in this
industry. Big Brother hasn’t entered that range yet,” Tan Mo said, “When I wrote the script for ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’, didn’t I gain a bit of fame? But what could that do for me? Many people still think that I only succeeded in one film and that it doesn’t mean anything. They continued to look down on me.
Similarly, the situation wouldn’t be any better for Tan Jingi.
Tan Jingi was still feeling hurt when he saw Tan Jinsheng nodding his head in agreement. “I think so too.”
Tan Jingi: “..”
“Then it’s a deal.” Tan Mo clapped her hands happily.
“Theard that recently, Kefeng Films is also interested in developing a singing variety show,” Wei Zhigian said. “Moreover, they are intending to cooperate with a television station. There have been discussions with Donghua station and Kumquat station to see which side is more suitable.”
“If things don’t work out on ‘Singing Voice’, we can wait for what Kefeng Films is preparing,” Wei Zhigian said.
“Then isn’t the entire family ripping off Kefeng Films?”Tan Jinyi said subconsciously.
Wei Zhigian:
“How could it be seen that way? Jingi and Jinsheng’s capabilities make it a win-win relationship with Kefeng Films. Do you see how successful ‘Broken Continent’ is?” Wei Zhigian said with a smile, He had a righteous look on his face as if his actions had nothing to do with entering by the back door.
“What kind of singing program are they planning for?” Tan Mo asked curiously.
“It’s still in the planning stage. There’s no definite conclusion at the moment. Essentially, it is going up against ‘Singing Voice’,” Wei Zhigian said, “We can’t let ‘Singing Voice’ dominate the variety show rankings. Besides, Donghua stations and Kumquat stations have long disliked Star Guest station. It all
depends on which of these two TV stations is more inclusive and gives Kefeng more autonomy.”
Wei Zhigian’s words meant that Kefeng Films had plans as well. So at least there was a guarantee for Tan Jinsheng.
Tan Jinsheng didn’t find that the invitation from ‘Singing Voice’ program team was that rare anymore.
Tan Jinsheng knew that he was fortunate to have the Tan family behind him, Wei Zhigian’s help, and the support of his teacher and three seniors.
So he did not take the invitation for going on ‘Singing Voice’ program seriously.
Of course, he was happy to be invited because this was an affirmation of him.
But he could confidently say that he wouldn’t participate if he didn’t want to. It was precisely because he had so much support behind him that he had a choice and the opportunity to decide. If he didn’t have their support, he would be on his own.
Should the program team be truly as Wei Zhigian said, without anyone’s support, Tan Jinsheng would accept this loss and agree to it. No matter what, he would seize the chance to show his face before he could think of making it further.
“Okay.” Tan Jinsheng agreed to it.
After eating, everyone gathered in the theatre room.
Originally, The Tan family wasn’t particular about such things and watched their shows on TV in the living room.
If the TV station didn’t broadcast it, they’d watch it on their phones or tablets.
The main thing was that Tan Wencil was busy with work and Tan Mo was also absent from home every day.
The three brothers were also busy with their things.
Xu Mingzhen was the only one who liked to watch some movies and TV dramas.
But now, Tan Jingi was officially starting out as a director.
Tan Wenci thought that in the future, there would definitely be more and more works by Tan Jingi. Tan Jinsheng would also make more appearances on television too.
So, he decided to change one of the guest rooms in the house into a theatre room.
He spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy a curtain and a projector and even a separate audio system.
He wanted to maximize the quality of the sound when he watched the shows directed by Jingi and listened to the songs sung by Jinsheng.
He also made the walls sound-proof, just like a theater.
No matter how loud the sound was, as long as the door was closed, it could not be transmitted out. The sound effect was much better like this too.
It was also convenient for the whole family to watch shows together.
Auntie Guo cut up some fruits while Xu Mingzhen and Tan Mo each brought back a basket of wine and drinks.
The Tan brothers each brought two plates of various snacks.
There were the spicy duck neck, wings, feet, and the tender, freshly marinated chicken feet that Auntie Guo had just prepared in the afternoon.
There were also the desserts from the shop that Xu Mingzhen usually ordered from.
There were also all kinds of dried meat, dried plums, chips, and fries that Tan Jinsheng had ordered from the supermarket.
They were going to watch four episodes at one go.
To watch them to their heart’s content, they had to snack as they watched.
Tan Wencil took the remote control and turned on the projector.
He took the tablet and entered Kefeng Films and refreshed it. The update of ‘Broken Continent’ happened to appear on his feed.
Tan Wenci bought all the remaining episodes and projected them onto the projector.
“Broken Continent’ lasts for an hour per episode, even if the opening and ending songs were skipped.
By the time they finished watching four episodes, it would be slightly past midnight.
It was already so late, so they were going to make Tan Mo stay.
Although the Tan family knew that Tan Mo was definitely staying with Wei Zhigian.
However, they did not say anything, They even pretended not to know and said, “Tan Mo, the dormitory doors would be closed by the time you head back. Stay at home for tonight.”
