This statement.

Tang Qing said it both against his will.

And sincerely.

Against his will in terms of his stance. After all, the industry under his control is developed according to his vision, and of course, he hopes it will be the best. Sincere, because of his identity as a Huaxia native.

But the domestic situation.

Is beyond his control.

"Each has its own merits, but to be honest, the advantages over there are too evident—a pleasant climate + a long coastline, quality beaches, seawater, and most importantly, islands."

"There are nearly a thousand islands, more than the Maldives, and the total island area is over ten times larger than that of the Maldives. As for development level and infrastructure, Huaxia can only compete in inland tourism."

Chai Ren analyzed.

Tang Qing: "..."

He didn’t expect Chai Ren to take this so seriously.

Alright then.

It is indeed a difficult advantage to compare with.

"Each has its own uniqueness," Tang Qing could only say.

"True."

"How long are you planning to stay in Shanghai?" Tang Qing asked.

"They’re returning tomorrow night; I need to make a trip to the United States." Speaking of this, Chai Ren’s expression became a bit uneasy—subtle, but Tang Qing still caught it. It seemed to be something not pleasant.

Got it.

He didn’t want to meddle too much.

...

Evening.

Shanghai Stadium.

Long queues stretched outside the entrance, and the dense crowds were orderly checking tickets to enter the venue.

"So excited, we’re about to see Liu Tianwang!"

"The guest lineup is truly strong."

"Also, the promotion highlights the first holographic tour concert."

"Just that the tickets are a bit expensive, over three hundred."

"That’s actually considered cheap. Some celebrities start at five hundred, but Liu Tianwang is approachable to fans."

"Exactly."

"..."

Invited, Tang Qing also came along. Strictly speaking, Liu Tianwang invited Chai Ren, and Chai Ren casually brought Tang Qing as well. After all, it was the weekend—coming out to listen to music was like unwinding.

Mid-last month.

Liu Tianwang visited.

Hoping to use the holographic imaging technology provided by Microcrystalline Technology, which hadn’t officially gone public yet.

Tang Qing didn’t refuse.

He agreed.

Calling it a holographic concert didn’t mean Liu Tianwang was performing from thousands of miles away, but rather combining live performance and projection. Watching him up close and viewing projections farther away—an experience much better than traditional setups.

"Tianwang’s influence is still impressive," Zhai Zhihua remarked.

Chai Ren said, "Few inland musicians have risen to prominence in recent years."

"No choice, it’s unsettling," Zheng Lin concluded. Singers were unsettled, music companies were unsettled—the entire industry was unsettled. This wasn’t his personal opinion but the judgment of his family’s elder.

"I think music talent shows will become increasingly common," Chai Ren commented.

"Without stirring things up, where’s the buzz?" Zheng Lin chuckled.

"Let’s head to the backstage."

No tickets.

They could only go and ask for arrangements.

Knowing Chai Ren and Tang Qing were coming, Liu Tianwang specially arranged for an assistant to wait at the entrance. Tonight’s biggest VIP attendees were undoubtedly these few individuals.

Four young masters with astonishing backgrounds.

Tang Qing was essentially loaded with more money than friends.

The term ’friends’ here didn’t refer to ordinary friendships—it meant unrivaled standing. Reflecting on last year’s Hurun List, the disparity between the first and second places was nearly a hundredfold, which was undeniably dramatic.

VIP Passage.

"Young Master Chai, Young Master Zheng..." the assistant greeted respectfully.

"Lead the way."

"Right this way, please."

Under the assistant’s guidance, they arrived backstage. By then, Liu Tianwang had already finished his makeup and was standing at the door to greet them, with a well-known domestic male and female singer by his side.

After exchanging pleasantries.

The others returned to the dressing rooms.

Though there was a desire for chit-chat, they weren’t familiar.

"Chairman Tang, thank you for the equipment. I tried it yesterday and immediately knew it would be a big hit. In the future, any major concert without your company’s equipment might just feel embarrassing to host," Liu Tianwang exclaimed.

From audio effects to visuals.

Tang Qing’s company had achieved industry breakthroughs, redefining standards. Without QingYang Audio’s equipment, the experience would feel as chaotic as a car crash scene by comparison.

"No need to be polite, as long as it’s useful."

"How many shows are you running this time?"

"Six. Only in Asia—otherwise, it’d be too hectic," Liu Tianwang said. His primary career nowadays wasn’t as a singer but as an actor. Were it not for his company’s suggestion, he wouldn’t have even held concerts.

Chai Ren remarked, "Still, you should take care of yourself. No need to overwork—you have both money and fame already."

"If you don’t push your limits, how will you know where they lie?"

"You, huh..."

"Jiaxue? You’re here," came a surprised voice from behind.

"Lili-jie, what brings you here?" Lin Jiaxue asked.

The newcomer was Hu Li.

A signed artist of Comet Media.

Now widely recognized, following her success in "Civilization," along with appearances in many other works. Her acting talents and efforts had garnered unanimous approval from audiences—she was considered a rising star supported by the Group.

"The theme song of my new TV series was sung by me, so the company arranged for me to perform tonight," Hu Li explained before quickly greeting Tang Qing and the others. "Chairman Tang, Chairman Chai, General Manager Zheng..."

Two major shareholders with astonishing backgrounds.

She was also in the entertainment circle.

Familiar with these matters.

The presence of these three shareholders ensured the protection of the Group’s artists—no one dared to exploit them recklessly. Those with little power wouldn’t dare provoke them, and those with great power wouldn’t want to intentionally cross them either.

"Hello, thank you for your hard work," Chai Ren said with a smile.

Being one of the shareholders, it was accurate to say that Hu Li was essentially his employee—his comment was appropriate.

"It’s not hard. This is a new actor in our company, Che Yao. Chairman Tang..." Hu Li quickly introduced the girl standing beside her. The two were co-starring in a show and were performing on the same stage tonight.

"Chairman Tang, hello..."

Che Yao seemed a bit nervous.

Her delicate face tried to maintain a smile.

Excited.

It was her first time meeting Tang Qing, as well as the other shareholders. During the annual meeting last year, though Tang Qing attended remotely via projection, he didn’t chat individually—and it certainly wouldn’t have been her turn.

But Tang Qing still remembered her among the company’s new actors.

Skilled in acting.

And very dedicated.

This was the basic standard for selecting actors in their company—the screening process was extremely demanding, aiming to cultivate performers who genuinely loved this field. None of the company’s actors were solely decorative.

Beauty wasn’t necessarily everything.

But being presentable was guaranteed.

After finishing formalities.

The two stepped out.

"Phew, that gave me quite a shock—didn’t expect the Chairman to show up," Che Yao exhaled a breath of relief. Although she hadn’t done anything wrong, facing her company’s big boss plus her personal idol still unnerved her.

"Chairman Tang is very approachable."

Saying this.

Hu Li couldn’t help but recall the time back in the photography studio.

Tang Qing had helped her deal with someone who came to collect debts. He was indeed easygoing, but after that incident, the person ended up in jail the same day. This sense of approachability wasn’t without boundaries—it embodied confidence and strength.

"Don’t let it bother you too much. Just perform normally later."

"Hm."

Che Yao nodded earnestly.

The big boss was here.

She must present her very best.

She hoped to show the boss that investing so much money and resources into her was absolutely worthwhile. Protected by the company and enjoying its resources, she didn’t need to make endless social appearances like other celebrities.

Focus on acting diligently.

Work steadily.

Walk the path she truly loved.

Sing the songs she genuinely enjoyed.

Untroubled by distractions.

This was the lifestyle Che Yao longed for.
