Chapter 82: A Music Variety Show Featuring a Star-Studded Cast!
"This music variety show has extremely high confidentiality requirements; the signed singers—"
'
Seeing Li Shen listening intently with his ears perked up, Chen Lan said, "Shouldn't someone be mindful of avoiding this?"
"Okay. You guys get back to work, I'm leaving."
Li Shen opened the car door and jumped out of the driver's seat.
He put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the subway.
After walking a few dozen steps, he suddenly heard Tian Xiwei calling his name.
Tian Xiwei called out, "Li Shen, where are you going next?"
Li Shen turned around and looked at her not far away: "I don't know."
Li Shen's gaze suddenly became unfocused—
In this world, I have nowhere to go!
Li Shen added, "Let's stay in the business world for a while and experience the local customs and culture."
"But do you still have any money?"
Li Shen spent the 2 yuan in royalties on buying a guitar for Li Hangliang.
Li Shen said, "I have a card in my bag."
"Do you have the password?"
Li Shen tapped his forehead: "Holy crap, this is a soul-searching question!!!"
Tian Xiwei: "————"
Li Shen sighed: "Go to the counter tomorrow and reset your password using your ID card."
"So what are you going to do tonight? Where will you stay?"
"Uh... hello friend..."
—
"Don't ask your friends for money; it's easy to turn them into enemies."
Li Shen lamented, "Heartless!"
Li Shen turned around and continued walking towards the subway station.
Tian Xiwei sighed softly, "Sister Lan, you take him there. I'm going home to rest now."
Chen Lan was slightly taken aback, but then she understood.
Li Shen had just reached the subway entrance when he heard the sound of a car horn beside him.
Chen Lan: "Li Shen, get in the car."
Li Shen asked, "Where are we going?"
You'll know when you get there.
Twenty minutes later, the car drove back to the School of Business and Drama and stopped in front of a residential building near the school.
As the two walked up to the third floor and pushed open the door, memories of their time living together flooded into Li Shen's mind.
This is the place where he and she used to live together.
The room had typical old-fashioned decor, clean but simple.
Pushing open Tian Xiwei's room door, I saw that the bedside table was filled with plush toys, just like it had been six years ago.
On the bedside table, there was a jar of canned yellow peaches, and under the jar, there was an A4 sheet of paper with a phone number written on it.
The second bedroom was his. He pushed open the door and went in. There was a desk, a chair, and a bed.
In addition, the walls are covered with photos and posters of Tian Xiwei.
In the school dormitory, not a single photo of Tian Xiwei could be posted, but at home, the walls were covered with them.
On the desk, there was also a jar of canned yellow peaches and an A4 sheet of paper with a phone number written on it.
It turns out that when Tian Xiwei moved out of this rented room after graduation, she still held onto a sliver of hope that Li Shen would eventually return.
The canned peaches and phone number in her home were her last hope.
The other bedroom originally belonged to Li Hangliang and Mai Lin, but Mai Lin later complained about the poor living conditions there, and since Li Hangliang had made money, he went to rent a large apartment.
Chen Lan: "After graduation, Xiao Tian renewed the lease for another year. Although she no longer lived here after graduation, she kept it as a memento. Later, she bought the place."
Li Shen was taken aback: "Isn't this just like Brother Liang and the others, getting on board at a high price?"
Chen Lan waved her hand: "I renewed the lease for 5 years and bought it last year when housing prices initially bottomed out."
"Oh, thank goodness."
"The spare key is still in the same place, where you used to put it on the top edge of the outdoor door frame. After graduation, Xiaotian was worried that you wouldn't be able to get into the house when you came back someday."
From a woman's perspective, I can tell you, you won't find another girl like Xiaotian. Li Shen, get some rest now.
"Wait a moment, Sister Lan."
"Um?"
Li Shen smiled gently. "I was moved, but I am a brand new me now. As I said on the podium, from that moment on, I am not who I was before; I am just a brand new me. Every step I take from now on will be for this new me."
Chen Lan looked at him blankly, not quite understanding.
Li Shen: "Please lend me some money. I need to find an agency to rent a place now. I want to stop living in this memory."
"Oh. I'll help you rent one. What are your requirements?"
"One-bedroom apartment, move-in ready, that's all."
"Okay, I'll go take care of it now. Are you coming with me?"
"I'm going to grab something to eat, I'll wait for your message."
Li Shen found a restaurant, booked a private room, and used his remaining cash to order eight dishes featuring local specialties.
Tonight is the first time he has truly lived since he came into this world.
Hmm, not bad, the taste is similar to Shanghai cuisine from my previous life.
He was eating while scrolling through his phone.
The song "The Most Familiar Stranger" is now available on major music platforms.
Unlike other songs Li Shen composed for the show, this song was specially created by Li Shen at the invitation of director Liu Qing for the program "Goodbye Lovers," and it was recorded in a studio.
He prepared the arrangement on his computer in advance. Last night, he left the villa for two hours and was taken to the recording studio by the program crew to complete the recording of this song.
Therefore, "The Most Familiar Stranger" is Li Shen's first truly publishable work.
As for "Slowly" and "Resentful Heaven for Changing Its Heart," they are all live recordings. Due to limitations in recording conditions and other issues, they are not suitable for immediate release.
"Goodbye Lovers" ends at 7:10 PM, and "The Most Familiar Stranger" will be released online at 7:30 PM.
On TT Music, China's largest music app, "The Most Familiar Stranger" successfully entered the top ten of the weekly new song chart within just one hour of its release, and continues to climb higher!
The song's popularity, generated in just one hour, overshadowed the accumulated popularity of countless new songs over a week.
This song received rave reviews and resonated with countless listeners.
In its previous life, this song was considered a classic.
Li Shen swiped his phone screen and opened the folder for "Writing Software," which contained dozens of writing platform apps.
Using the pen name "Xingmang," he published his 6000-word novel, "The Days of Living with a Female Celebrity," on these platforms. After a working day, none of the dozens of platforms sent him a contract offer, and there were virtually no reader comments.
However, there were three comments on the Qidian platform.
[It's 2025, and they're still using first-person narration? Still talking about pure romance?]
[It's really good, but bro, this kind of story is impossible to get signed right now!]
[Oli Gei: Why haven't you signed a contract yet? How can I form an alliance if you don't sign one?]
Oli Gei?
Ultraman, awesome!
Li Shen laughed. Needless to say, the last comment must have been posted by Zhang Ruonan.
This kind of writing met with a cold reception, which was within Li Shen's expectations.
This kind of article either doesn't go viral, or it goes viral like crazy!
Li Shen checked his current online popularity again.
In just two weeks, his Weibo followers skyrocketed from a few hundred to 850 million, a truly astonishing growth rate in such a short time.
You should know that all of his fans are active fans; there isn't a single zombie fan.
Unlike some celebrities who have tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of fans, yet only get a few hundred comments on a single post —
Professional real estate agents are efficient; by the time Li Shen finished his meal, the house deal was already finalized.
The rented apartment has two bedrooms and a living room, and the decor is warm and inviting, which Li Shen is very satisfied with.
Chen Lan handed him the keys, and before leaving, she asked worriedly, "I always thought you were a stumbling block for Xiao Tian. This time, can you really become Xiao Tian's stepping stone?"
Li Shen: "I will do my best."
"But we don't have much time left. Filming for 'The Thirty-Six Strategies of Love' is about to begin."
"I see."
Lijing No. 1 is a large-sized single-level residential building.
Tian Xiwei strolled through the spacious living room, feeling uneasy, excited, and nervous.
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
She looked at the program information for "The King of Singers" on her phone:
First, the singers participated in various costumes and masked appearances;
Second, it requires singers to perform entirely new works;
Third, live streaming mode, no audio editing;
Fourth, a public vote, with the last-place candidate eliminated.
In addition to the last place being eliminated, if the audience correctly guesses the singer's name, the singer must also leave the show.
"That's exciting! And why did you invite me?"
The new show "The King of Singers" has received a lot of attention in the past two months.
Director Hong Feng once revealed to the public that more than three-quarters of the guests invited to "The King of Singers" would be top-tier singers, and there would be no fewer than five superstars.
New singers must have distinctive features, and there should be no more than three of them.
The show is packed with big names and is absolutely dazzling!
Tian Xiwei looked worried.
Because of this show, singers are required to prepare new songs for each episode.
But she doesn't have a single new song.
She knew Li Shen would definitely find a way to help her! But he had said it many times, and he didn't have any new songs coming out.
Therefore, she didn't make any demands on Li Shen, so as not to put pressure on him.
As for Teacher 88, I've never heard of him! I can't even find him by searching!
Tian Xiwei opened the WeChat chat box and typed in text.
[Hello, Teacher 88, I'm Tian Xiwei.]
Hello, please send me a voice message. I can check your voice and condition anytime. Also, please don't call me "teacher," just say "bye-bye."
Okay, bye-bye.
