Chapter 2580  : Twins

“Do any other reporters have any other questions? I happen to have time to answer them all.”

These reporters had been tasked to come over, but they were not really here to question the entire competition, let alone all artistes.

Seeing that Qiao Weiyang answered their previous questions smoothly, everyone could only forget about it.

“We won’t delay you anymore. We’ll interview you after your competition.” “Okay, I’ll look forward to your interview,” Qiao Weiyang said in a neutral tone.

The reporters left.

The fans heaved a sigh of relief. Their impression of Qiao Weiyang had changed once more.

In everyone’s eyes, she was usually cold and arrogant. Although she had always loved her fans and was very smart, it was a completely different feeling to be protected by her.

Seeing that she could escape unscathed from the malicious intentions of these reporters and deal with emergencies, not only did everyone like her more, but they were also more at ease with her.

She had the ability to protect herself. That was better than anything else!

Qiao Weiyang turned around to look at everyone. Although there was no smile on her face, her expression was gentle and concerned.

“It’s okay. Everyone, please leave in an orderly manner now. Go home early. Be careful on the way.”

Hearing Qiao Weiyang’s words, no one stayed any longer. They spontaneously

lined up and left.

The security officers had also witnessed Qiao Weiyang retort to the reporters. At this moment, they spontaneously came out to maintain order and help the fans leave in an orderly manner.

Only then did Qiao Weiyang bring Tao Huan back to the car and look for Lin Shuhui.

“The fans are doing alright, right?” Lin Shuhui asked.

“They’re all doing well. I’ve received their kindness and support. Let’s go backstage.”

They went backstage.

Some were preparing, while others were adjusting their mentalities because of nervousness.

After sending WeChat messages for a while, Lin Shuhui said, “Lu Ke is ready. He’s waiting.”

Lu Ke was in the professional category and was not with Qiao Weiyang and the others. Because of her concern, Lin Shuhui had been asking him about his progress.

“That’s good. Brother Lu shouldn’t have anything to worry about. He’s capable.”

Lin Shuhui nodded. This time, Lu Ke should be full of confidence. She looked around and suddenly asked, “Why don’t I see Wangzhi?” “Huan Huan, have you seen Xu Wangzhi?” Qiao Weiyang asked.

“I haven’t seen him either.”

Lin Shuhui said, “I’ll call him.”

Xu Wangzhi was still applying for leave from the director in the production team.

Actually, the director already knew that he was going to participate in the competition. He had also applied for leave in advance, and the recording was suspended. The work of both sides would not conflict.

However, because Chengyu was going to film a TV show, he asked for the recording of this episode of Piano Story to be done in advance. This had caused a conflict in Xu Wangzhi’s schedule.

The director was arranging the timing.

Chengyu’s manager said indifferently, “In my opinion, even if it’s the domestic finals, the competition for the Tchaikovsky Piano Competition is quite fierce. It’ll be difficult for ordinary people to be nominated. I hope you’ll prioritize this show. It can attract fans and increase your popularity. What can that competition bring you?”

Although Chengyu did not agree with his manager, the expression on his face expressed the same.

It was because of him that Piano Story was recorded in advance.

Not only was he not apologetic, but he also took it for granted. Everyone else was cooperating with him, but he didn’t care.

“I’ll definitely participate in the competition, and I won’t give up on the recording,” Xu Wangzhi said. “Director, how about this? I’ll go to the competition first. After the competition, I’ll rush back to record my part.”

“It’s fine for you to shoot your part alone, but there’s a segment where everyone has to work together. Should everyone wait for you here?” Before the director could speak, Chengyu’s manager spoke.

The director was in a dilemma.

It was actually alright for Xu Wangzhi to go to the competition first. Anyway, they had to record until very late today. It was fine to record Xu Wangzhi’s segment later.

However, since Chengyu did not say anything, he couldn’t bring himself to say anything.

Chengyu was the son of a big director. The reason why this show could be broadcasted was largely because of his father. Most of the sponsorships were also pulled by his father.

No one wanted to offend him.

The director looked at Xu Wangzhi awkwardly. “Wangzhi, look.. Chengyu slowly said, “Alright, go ahead. We’ll wait for you.”

Hearing him relent, Xu Wangzhi was overjoyed. He said, “Thank you,

Chengyu.”

Chengyu said slowly, “You’ll only participate in this competition once anyway.

It’s okay.”

Xu Wangzhi: ‘

Chengyu’s words clearly meant that it was impossible for Xu Wangzhi to achieve results. He would stop here and not be able to participate in the international rounds.

Xu Wangzhi did not stop. He picked up his bag, turned around, and ran out. Brother Tang followed.

Someone said, “If Xu Wangzhi really gets to the finals, he’ll have to go to

France to participate in the competition. That’ll take up the recording time. That won’t be something that everyone can just wait for.”

Indeed, the trip to France would take several days.

Chengyu said, “Well, he’d have to pass first.”

The director smiled and said, “Yes, we’ll see when the time comes. We can always coordinate.”

Actually, all the artistes participating in this show were good at playing the piano. Many of them had actually tried to participate in the amateur category of the Tchaikovsky Piano Competition.

However, some people were eliminated in the preliminary round while others didn’t even manage to sign up. There were requirements to sign up, similar to the qualifiers. If one didn’t meet the requirements, they wouldn’t even be able to sign up.

It would be a lie to say that no one was envious that Xu Wangzhi could participate in the competition.

Especially Chengyu. He had learned the piano since he was young and thought highly of himself. He had also participated in the preliminary round this time, but he was eliminated early.

He didn’t mention this, so no one knew.

Everyone more or less had some thoughts about Xu Wangzhi’s participation.

“Xu Wangzhi is really lucky to be able to avoid the preliminaries with just a recommendation letter. He’s much luckier than all of us,” someone said. “If his results are good, he’ll probably be liked by more fans in our show. His luck is invincible.”

Chengyu smiled indifferently. He had never thought of relying on his father to get a recommendation letter, which was why he returned in defeat this time.

If Xu Wangzhi’s results were good, it would definitely increase his popularity in

Piano Story.

But could he really get good results? Chengyu was skeptical.

Hence, Chengyu did not take it to heart.

Xu Wangzhi finally arrived before the scheduled time.

Lin Shuhui pulled him over and said, “Quick, go get ready. It’ll be your turn soon..”
