This time, there were three winners, one in the professional category and two in the amateur category. It was really rare, and it was indeed something to celebrate!

As a result, the three of them received even more attention.

As Lu Ke was obsessed with teaching and self-research, things were still considered quiet on his side. Qiao Weiyang still had some scenes to film. After winning the award, she quickly joined the cast and continued filming.

Xu Wangzhi was in the final stages of the music variety show, Piano Story. He was a popular contestant to begin with. Coupled with the fact that he won the Tchaikovsky Piano Competition this time, he received a lot of attention.

After the recording of the last episode ended, the editing team received the footage. Not only did they have to give him more scenes, but they also had to specially shoot another segment for him to record the entire process of his participation in the Tchaikovsky Piano Competition.

Chengyu was very dissatisfied with this. Piano Story was a show led by his father to support him. Now that Xu Wangzhi was receiving different treatment, his attention would definitely be affected.

How could he be willing to let others benefit from this?

“Director, I don’t agree with your arrangements for Xu Wangzhi.” Chengyu sat in front of the director, no longer hiding his attitude.

“Chengyu, I understand your feelings, but Xu Wangzhi won the championship. Be it the entire society or many relevant departments, they’re all very willing to use this as publicity. Do you know that there are still many foreign media outlets and people staying in the country to promote this award? This is a very good opportunity to become a cultural powerhouse!”

The director’s attitude was no longer as subservient as before. He retorted reasonably.

Chengvu said, “Director, what do you think we should do with this last episode?”

Of course, there were also popular contestants in the previous episodes, but the main responsibility of investing was still shouldered by Chengyu’s father, Director Cheng. He got many friends to put advertisements in the entire show so that the show would have enough funds to record and promote.

The director said, “I’m very grateful to Director Cheng and you for the opportunity you’ve given me. But Chengyu… With all due respect, even if Director Cheng no longer helps us with advertising, just Xu Wangzhi alone is enough to rake in investors. They’re waiting at the door now.”

Chengyu’s face darkened. It was obvious that Xu Wangzhi had the entire spotlight to himself right now.

Chengyu was the one who started the show, but Xu Wangzhi received the greatest dividend.

A director who only cared about profits naturally had to support Xu Wangzhi, the money tree.

Seeing that Chengyu was no longer insisting, the director said, “Chengyu, your performance in the finals was very good. We’ll guarantee your screen time so that your fans will be pleased. You definitely won’t have less screen time than

Xu Wangzhi. Don’t worry.”

After saying harsh words, the director consoled him.

If it were any other artiste, they would be overjoyed.

However, this was Chengyu. All the benefits should have been his to take!

However, fame and fortune were fickle. Chengyu stood up and left.

The finals of Piano Story were soon broadcasted.

Due to Xu Wangzhi’s popularity, the episode attracted an unprecedented number of people to watch.

His performance was not bad to begin with. Coupled with the fact that his screen time this time was reasonable, more fans and audience members could see the extent of his performance.

He naturally won the final championship.

Chengyu was second.

After the videos of Xu Wangzhi’s participation in the Tchaikovsky Piano Competition were released, he attracted even more fans, making countless people crazy and fascinated.

Chengyu’s popularity continued to decrease. In the end, he could only get second place. One could imagine the discomfort in his heart.

However, there were too many uncontrollable factors in the competition. At this point, the market was uncontrollable, and the artistes’ charm was a variable.

Qiao Weiyang was still filming the rest of her scenes on set.

After she finished filming, she saw Jin Lan tiptoe in, trying to scare her.

“Hey!” Jin Lan said.

Qiao Weiyang pretended to be frightened, but Jin Lan saw through it. “You already spotted me?”

“Yes, there’s a mirror here.”

Jin Lan pulled a chair and sat down in front of her. Qiao Weiyang asked, “Aren’t you done filming? How did you have the time to make a visit?”

“I’m here because I have good news for you.”

“What good news?” Seeing that she was being mysterious, Qiao Weiyang was also a little curious.

“Take a guess.”

Qiao Weiyang said, “You’ve terminated your contract with your original company. Since you said you have good news to share, it’s either you’ve signed a contract with a new company or obtained some new resources, right?”

“Your guess is really good. But what I want to tell you is that I’m currently filming a period drama. This matter has something to do with you.” Qiao Weiyang smiled and asked, “Is the male lead Xu Wangzhi?”

“He told you?”

“I guessed according to your clues.”

“That’s right, that’s right. Not only is the male lead Xu Wangzhi, but I’m also the female lead! Sister Weiyang, think about it. I’ve been in the industry for three years, but I’ve never gotten the role for the female lead even once. It’s all because I had the label of bimbo previously. I didn’t expect to get the female lead role after terminating my contract!”

Qiao Weiyang had actually heard about Jin Lan’s past. She was suppressed by the company, so she naturally couldn’t get any good resources.

Qiao Weiyang had also heard about the reason and dispute between her and Lu Mingjue.

“Congratulations, then. You’re finally out of your misery. You even got yourself a female lead role. Congratulations! Seize the opportunity well.”

“Thank you!” Jin Lan said with a smile. “Then I’ll treat you to a meal when I’m free! I’ll also invite Xu Wangzhi so that I can get to know my new colleague!”

After Jin Lan left, Qiao Weiyang found it a little strange. Xu Wangzhi was currently the most popular artiste. As far as she knew, many popular female artistes were willing to work with him. Why did Brother Tang choose Jin Lan for him in the end?

It was not that Jin Lan was not worthy of him. Jin Lan had both looks and acting skills. Qiao Weiyang trusted her ability very much. She was just worried that there was something fishy going on.

She immediately called Brother Tang to ask about the situation.

“Weiyang, I was just about to complain about this. When we signed the contract previously, we booked an A-list actress for Xu Wangzhi. But after signing the contract, they told us that the actress’ schedule didn’t match and changed the actress to Jin Lan. They didn’t say anything about Jin Lan, so I went to ask the production team about it.. Guess what I found out?”
