Capital city, Central Television headquarters.

Yang Ping was pacing in distress.

He was the chief director of this year’s Lantern Festival gala.

Originally, all the programs had been arranged properly.

But who would have thought, the singer scheduled to close the show was found guilty of serious crimes.

Moreover, the new song prepared especially for this Lantern Festival was also found to have subtly improper guidance.

This left Yang Ping completely dumbfounded.

The most important singer and song had both run into trouble.

With just over ten days left until the Lantern Festival.

Yang Ping had no choice but to activate all his connections to find a suitable singer and new song.

If he messed up this Lantern Festival gala, he might as well resign and leave. “What is all this rubbish?”

Yang Ping had reviewed all the submitted songs.

If the melody wasn’t the problem, then the lyrics were lousy.

After reviewing them, Yang Ping felt even more dejected.

A strong sense of urgency grew in his heart.

“Director Yang, I do have a candidate in mind, would you like to give it a try?” Just as Yang Ping was in a state of extreme anxiety, his assistant spoke up. Yang Ping’s spirits lifted: “Who?”

“Jiang Xu!” said the assistant. “He is a freshman at Magic University and also the ambassador of Magic City.

I got to know about him by chance.

This guy has a talent for business and is very creative.

He has composed many popular and positive songs.

Perhaps he has a solution. Why don’t you try to get in touch with him?”

Yang Ping nodded: “Give me his contact information.”

When Jiang Xu received the call from Yang Ping, and after the latter explained the purpose of his call, Jiang Xu involuntarily sat up straight, his expression serious.

If the song he “created” could be performed at the Lantern Festival gala, it would be beneficial not only for Jiang Xu himself but also for his company. He inquired in detail about Yang Ping’s requirements, since the Lantern Festival gala was for a nationwide audience.

The song had to be meaningful enough, touching enough, and it had to be positive.

Ideally, it would also carry some educational and informative elements.

After hearing Yang Ping’s requirements, a song immediately came to mind for

Jiang Xu.

That song should indeed meet the requirements.

So Jiang Xu accepted the task, promising that by tomorrow morning at the latest, he would have a sample for him to review.

“Hahaha, I’m looking forward to it,” Yang Ping laughed heartily.

After chatting with Jiang Xu for a few more sentences, he hung up the call.

The smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by the same worried look.

The assistant nearby asked, “Director Yang, didn’t Jiang Xu already agree?

Why do you still seem unhappy?”

“Alas,” Yang Ping shook his head. “It seems this Jiang Xu you mentioned is all show and no substance.

With all the requirements I stated, and he claims he can produce a sample in less than a day, isn’t that nonsense?

Even for a gold-medal lyricist and composer, unless there’s a sudden burst of inspiration,

it’s impossible to complete the lyrics, composition, and record a sample all within one day.”

The assistant was rendered speechless.

“Forget it,” Yang Ping stood up. “To make absolutely sure, I will have to swallow my pride.

Let’s see if I can get Master Zhang out of retirement to lend a hand.”

The assistant’s pupils dilated: “You mean that top lyricist and composer, the one who has won countless awards and written hundreds of quality songs, Master Zhang?”

“Yes,” Yang Ping nodded. “But Master Zhang is already in his eighties, and he may not agree to come out of retirement. I’ll give it my best shot anyway.”

When Jiang Xu told his family about the matter,

they were all very happy.

That was a super grand stage, second only to the Spring Festival Gala.

If he could perform on that stage,

he would certainly become nationally famous.

Chen Yue and Jiang Shan were then provided with another bragging right among relatives and friends.

They both exhorted Jiang Xu to work hard.

To come up with a song that would dazzle the national audience and make them proud.

An Nuonuo, on the other hand, was full of confidence.

She believed that with Jiang Xu’s ability, there certainly wouldn’t be a problem.

After the meal, Jiang Xu parted ways with them.

He headed directly to the Capital city.

An Nuonuo had no complaints.

She stayed at home in Jiang Xu’s stead, keeping his parents company.

Taking the nearest flight.

Once on the plane, Jiang Xu asked a flight attendant for pen and paper.

First, he wrote down the lyrics and melody.

At a little past 7 PM, he arrived at the Capital city airport on time.

As soon as he got off the plane, Jiang Xu received a call from his uncle.

“Jiang Xu, your brother Jiang Yang has been arrested for gambling. Think of a way to save him.”

Jiang Xu’s mind raced, and he said, “Okay, I know.”

His uncle was deeply touched, “It’s good to have family. I apologize for the past issues.”

Jiang Xu smiled, “It’s okay, we’re family after all. I’ll have someone handle it now.”

After hanging up, Jiang Xu called Liu Dahai, “My cousin’s been arrested for gambling. Take care of it.”

Liu Dahai immediately responded, “Sure boss, we’ll get him out as soon as possible.”

“That’s not what I meant,” Jiang Xu’s tone was slightly cold, “You go and gather more evidence of his illegal activities, find him the best lawyer, and ensure he stays inside as long as possible.”

Liu Dahai felt like his head was about to smoke.

He quickly came to his senses and hurriedly agreed.

Then, escorted by several bodyguards, Jiang Xu went to a record company owned by his family’s conglomerate.

Only one-twentieth of the staff remained over the New Year’s.

On the way there, Jiang Xu had already arranged for the necessary equipment to be set up by the company in advance.

Upon reaching the recording studio, he went straight to recording.

This song was quite challenging.

Thus, Jiang Xu put in a lot of effort.

It wasn’t until after 3 AM that he finally produced the desired result.

He listened to it several times.

Despite some imperfections, it was good enough for use.

With over ten days left until the Lantern Festival Gala, there was time to practice slowly.

It was too late, so he decided to rest there for the night.

The next morning, a little after 9 AM, Jiang Xu went to meet Yang Ping, escorted by his bodyguards.

“Director Yang, hello.”

“Hello, hello, you must be Jiang Xu, a true young talent,” Yang Ping said.

The two greeted each other with polite formalities.

It was Jiang Xu’s first time meeting such an esteemed director.

Yang Ping’s status in the entertainment industry was unparalleled.

Many celebrities considered it an honor to take a photo with him or have a meal together.

Collaborating with him was an even more impressive feat.

Yang Ping said, “Sorry to trouble you, please wait in the reception room for a bit, I have an important guest to meet.”

Jiang Xu nodded, “Okay.”

Having shown Jiang Xu to the reception room with his assistant, Yang Ping personally went to the entrance.

Thanks to his efforts the night before, he finally managed to invite the retired grand master composer, Old Zhang.

There was also good news.

Old Zhang had created a song a few years back that hadn’t been released yet.

The crisis, in Yang Ping’s view, was already resolved.

As for Jiang Xu…

He was no longer needed.

Yang Ping planned to personally invite him for a meal to apologize, and the matter would be settled.

“Old Zhang, you’ve arrived!”

Yang Ping quickly went to greet him and invite him into his office.

After some pleasantries, Yang Ping asked to see the work.

Accompanying Old Zhang was his granddaughter.

She handed over a manuscript to Yang Ping with both hands.

Yang Ping looked solemn.

Taking it, he began to read carefully.

After more than ten minutes…

Yang Ping slapped his thigh after finishing, his eyes glittering as he looked at

Old Zhang and exclaimed, “You’re truly an undisputed treasure; this song perfectly meets my requirements. Thank you so much.”

Having seen Old Zhang off, Yang Ping went to the reception room in high spirits.

Just as he was about to knock on the door…

He heard his assistant inside, exclaiming loudly, “Incredible! Did you really create this song?”
