Chapter 65 Lu Ran≥Tomorrow?
Chapter 65 Lu Ran≥Tomorrow?
Lu Ran's words immediately sparked discussion among onlookers.
"Holy crap! Lu Ran is that tough?!"
"Directly challenging the director of Starlight Entertainment's long-running drama series! Awesome!"
"Haha, I really like Lu Ran's personality. A real man should be tough to the end."
"Wang Shuo, answer it quickly! Don't be a coward!"
Wang Shuo of Xinghua Entertainment clearly did not expect that Lu Ran would dare to choose to confront him so directly.
However, Wang Shuo clearly didn't take this so-called bet to heart.
Xingyao wasn't founded by Lu Ran, nor can he dissolve it at will. Does he think he's the chairman?
After Lu Ran posted on Weibo, there was no response from the other party for more than ten minutes.
Lu Ran then posted another Weibo message, specifically tagging Wang Shuo: "@WangShuoV Why aren't you saying anything? Please turn on your microphone and communicate! As the director of the long-running drama department at Starlight Entertainment, you can't be too afraid to take on this, can you?!"
This Weibo post had an even more pronounced sarcastic effect, prompting many fans of Starlight Entertainment to rush to leave comments on Wang Shuo's Weibo account.
"Shuo-ge, answer it! What are you afraid of, some newbie?"
"Brother Shuo, take any of these calls. I have inside information. That kid's just a crook; he can't do anything."
"Exactly! Our 'Swordsman' game has an investment of 80 million, are we afraid of him?"
In response from his fans, Wang Shuo finally made a move.
However, Wang Shuo dared not reply as casually as Lu Ran. Although his words were sarcastic, they were still the orders from above, and he was merely acting as a mouthpiece.
Wang Shuo posted a vague Weibo post, which can be considered a response to Lu Ran:
@WangShuoV:
"Competition in the industry relies on strength, and I won't participate in childish betting. In October, let's let our works speak for themselves, and I hope that you at Xingyao will still have that confidence then."
Although Wang Shuo spoke toughly, it was obvious to everyone that he had chickened out.
"Hahaha! Wang Shuo doesn't dare to answer! So Starlight Entertainment is a coward too."
"That's hilarious! Weren't you so arrogant just now? Why did you back down when it came to actually gambling?"
"Lu Ran is awesome! He shut up the director of Starlight with just one sentence! From now on, you're my Brother Lu!"
Seeing Wang Shuo's Weibo post, it was clear that Lu Ran didn't intend to let him off the hook immediately, so he casually added another post:
@LuRanV:
"@WangShuoV I understand, after all, Director Wang is just an employee and doesn't have that much authority."
But that's okay, we'll let the data speak for itself with our works in October.
We'll change the way we do it. Whoever loses will give the other a super seniority boost, and they'll just have to call him "Dad."
If "Swordsman's Journey" loses, remember to call me "daddy" and post it on Weibo.
After Lu Ran posted this Weibo post, Wang Shuo did not respond.
I don't know if they were afraid of losing badly, or if they were pretending not to see it.

Meanwhile, the battle in the music industry has entered a fierce stage.
Liu Siqi's "Rolling Up the Pearl Curtain" was released as scheduled and once again received widespread praise.
Shen Yuege also released "Tropical Rainforest" on time.
In the past two weeks, the two released ten and nine songs respectively.
Liu Siqi's new album has been released in its entirety, while Shen Yuege is missing only one song.
The duo's new song has climbed all the way from the new song chart to the annual overall chart.
Music critic "Ear Jun" has published another long analysis:
"Rolling Up the Pearl Curtain" continues Liu Siqi's gentle narrative style and has obvious Chinese style elements, making it irresistible to listen to on repeat.
"Tropical Rainforest" showcases another characteristic of Shen Yuege's voice: mysterious, sexy, and full of exotic charm.
The two songs are very different in style, but both are of above-average quality.
To date, Liu Siqi has released ten songs, including "The World," "By the Lake Baikal," "The Thief of Time," and "Rolling Up the Pearl Curtain," completing the release of all songs from her new album.
Shen Yuege has nine songs, including "Ningxia", "Summer Wind", "Summer Fruits" and "Tropical Rainforest", which are basically on par with Liu Siqi.
In terms of quantity, Liu Siqi is slightly ahead, but in terms of reputation and popularity, the two are almost equal.
However, it is worth noting that Shen Yuege's producer, Mingri, has remained a mystery so far, while Liu Siqi's producer, Lu Ran, has made a public appearance and demonstrated amazing creative abilities.
This battle for the title of "Queen of Pop" has, to some extent, also evolved into a producer's contest between "Lu Ran" and "Tomorrow."
As a music critic who has benefited from the battle for the title of "Queen of Pop," Erjun has recently become extremely enthusiastic about this epic battle.
Every time she posts a related topic, she gains a lot of followers as a result.
Seeing that the newly posted Weibo post had already garnered many comments and messages, Erjun immediately followed up with another Weibo post:
Analysis of who is stronger between Mingri and Lu Ran:
Firstly, the songs they wrote for the two divas are, for the time being, evenly matched.
However, Lu Ran added the hit song "Rice Fragrance" to his repertoire, along with other songs such as "Little Apple" and "How Lonely It Is to Be Invincible".
In this respect, Lu Ran is one point better than Mingri.
At the same time, Lu Ran also has very strong singing skills, which for the time being is better than Mingri's.
Therefore, all things considered, Lu Ran is slightly better than Mingri.
Erjun's Weibo post set a tone for the two of them.
Lu Ran≥tomorrow.
This puts Shen Yuege at a slight disadvantage in the competition with Liu Siqi.
The general audience also agrees that Liu Siqi is better than Shen Yuege.
...
After finishing his daily routine, Lu Ran returned home to find Shen Yuege sitting on the sofa with her computer.
After the fish-killing incident, Shen Yuege completely gave up on cooking, so Lu Ran continued to cook dinner every night.
Seeing Shen Yuege's furrowed brows, Lu Ran asked, "What's wrong, Empress Shen?"
Shen Yuege raised her head, pouting slightly, "Lu Ran, tell me honestly, have you taken a liking to Liu Siqi?"
"Huh? Why would you think that, senior!" Lu Ran was suddenly overwhelmed by this huge, unwarranted accusation.
"Then why did you write a song for her?" Shen Yuege asked, her face full of displeasure.
"Because she gave me money," Lu Ran answered truthfully.
Shen Yuege thought about it and it didn't seem to make any mistakes.
Even she only wrote it for herself because Lu Ran was given a share of the profits.
That's just what Shen Yuege thinks.
But in that case, wouldn't I be the same as Liu Siqi?
Hearing Lu Ran's explanation, Shen Yuege was not happy; instead, she became even more annoyed.
If Lu Ran knew what Shen Yuege was thinking, he would definitely cry out that he was wronged.
His initial intention in giving Shen Yuege the money wasn't really for the share of the profits; he was afraid that Shen Yuege would fade into obscurity early on and no one would give him the final payment.
Moreover, in Lu Ran's heart, Shen Yuege was already different from others, even though the marriage was only due to a contractual issue.
But after spending so much time together, Lu Ran's feelings were no longer as pure as before.
If they really get married and don't get divorced, it doesn't seem like a bad thing.
