Tan Jingi and Tan Mo looked at each other when they heard Xu Dashi's words. "

's a coincidence," Tan Jingi answered before saying, "I called you this time because of this singing variety show..."
"Oh?" Such a coincidence surprised Xu Dashi., It turned out that Tan Jingi and Tan Mo already knew that Kefeng Films would do this variety show.

Wei Zhigian must have told them, or so Xu Dashi thought.

It did nothing to sate his curiosity, however. Why had Wei Zhigian not told him?

"Mr Xu, when are you free today? We'll go over the details with you in person," Tan Jingi said.

"Tm free at the moment," Xu Dazhi immediately replied.

"Okay, then we'll go to Kefeng Films now." Tan Jingi was already en route to Kefeng Films even as he informed Mr Xu that they were on their way.

Tan Jingi decided to give Xu Dashi a heads-up. "We'll be there in about ten minutes."

Xu Dashi:
They must have set off early that morning to meet him.

What if they arrived and leamt he was not free to entertain them? Xu Dashi considered the question and sighed.

Even if he were not free to meet them, he would still have had to make time.

Tan Jingi worried that Xu Dashi would overthink things, so he explained, "Mo Mo and I are going to Singing Voice's recording studio to discuss some matters. It happens to be quite close to Kefeng Films, so we thought we would visit you since we were in the area."
Xu Dashi heaved a sigh of relief but immediately became wary. "Singing Voice's program team has invited Teacher Tan?"

Tan Jingi smiled and said, "You don't have to be so polite. We are already so familiar with each other. You can call him. It just so happens that he will be going with us to Kefeng Films."

"Okay, okay." Xu Dashi thought it through. Wouldn't that make him privy to their conversation?

Tan Jingi believed it was a good time to interject and said, "Singing Voice's programme team has invited him, so welll accompany him today to see what the program team is planning."

"I's a good thing we accompanied him. That executive director, Ge Guangzhen, and the assistant director, Chen Xinghan, were there. They intended to feature him in a competition round and immediately eliminate him."

"We only learned of this recently. The show is a sham. The programme team planned it out from A to Z, forcing their guests to sign contracts that would force their elimination after a few episodes."

"The audience's votes don't matter, and neither do the guests competing." Tan Jingi had no intention of sugarcoating the truth on Singing Voice's behalf.

"They contracted Jinsheng for one episode because he's been quite popular lately and not for his ability. In their eyes, he's the best sort of cannon fodder for the second episode of the competition."

"He is not famous, so his appearance fee isn't high, but it doesn't mean he has no fan base. He still has some dedicated fans, and they're hoping his minor popularity will boost the show's ratings. He's nothing more than a glorified pack mule to support their artists!"
Tan Jingi sneered, "Why should he participate in such a show or even be humiliated? I'm glad he rejected it. Our family isn't some foil to make others look good, and neither Ge Guangzhen nor Chen Xinghan has the right to look down on him!"
