Chapter 1082 -976: Slightly Aware of 12

The initial selection had finished, and everyone had left for their own matters.

All that was left was to wait for the results from the Middle State.

Lin Yuan was preparing to go home for dinner when his cellphone suddenly rang—Director Tong Shuwen from “Fish Walking with You” was calling.

“Director Tong?”

“Is Teacher Admirable Fish available?”

“Uh?”

“How about having dinner together?”

“Sure.”

“I’ll send you the address.”

Tong Shuwen didn’t specify the reason for the call, but Lin Yuan had a good relationship with him, so he immediately agreed to the dinner invitation.

Twenty minutes later.

Lin Yuan entered a private restaurant.

Inside the restaurant.

Tong Shuwen had ordered a table full of dishes and said with a smile to Lin Yuan, “Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Admirable Fish. Please, sit down and let’s eat.”

“Sure.”

Lin Yuan was indeed a bit hungry. Looking at the delicious food on the table made his mouth water.

After eating for a while.

Tong Shuwen finally spoke up, “I invited Teacher Admirable Fish mainly because I need help with something. You know I’ve been busy with our Qin Continent Spring Festival, right?”

Lin Yuan nodded.

Tong Shuwen smiled, “For the program finale, we have a big music chorus, but we haven’t found a suitable song yet. So, I was hoping you could help write one.”

“The finale chorus?”

The program indeed needed preparation by the Spring Festival organizers. He thought for a moment and said,

“I can.”

Lin Yuan had also prepared a chorus for the Blue Star Spring Festival, but it was a Yu Dynasty chorus, and the song was “Love Each Other.”

He definitely couldn’t give that song to Tong Shuwen.

However, besides that, Lin Yuan had other suitable choices for a large chorus, like “Love Each Other…

as a Family.”

Doesn’t that sound interesting?

Blue Star Spring Festival would feature “Love Each Other.”

Qin Continent Spring Festival would feature “Love Each Other Like a Family.”

Lin Yuan thought this idea was quite meaningful and contained a certain allegory.

Upon hearing this, Tong Shuwen was overjoyed. Having recorded with Lin Yuan for so long, he trusted the level of his lyric and music composition!

The song Admirable Fish agreed upon would definitely not be subpar!

“Then let me thank you in advance!”

Tong Shuwen expressed his gratitude and then switched to complaint mode, “It’s my first time handling a Spring Festival gala. I didn’t know how troubling it could be. There’s always something vexing about each program that needs my attention: constant revisions and adjustments. Whether it’s a little skit with high hopes that always lacks a certain flair or a stand-up comedy act or even dance performances, they’re all headaches.”

Tong Shuwen and Lin Yuan were friends.

Friends didn’t mince words with each other. During the meal, Tong Shuwen confided many of his work-related troubles to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan listened quietly.

Occasionally chiming in with a few words.

Ten minutes later, Tong Shuwen suddenly burst into laughter:

“Look at me being a director and complaining to you for so long; how about you guys? How’s the preparation for the Blue Star Spring Festival?”

“We passed the initial selection.”

“I knew you guys would have no problems. Now we just wait for the results from Middle State. It usually takes about a week to hear back, but for the Yu Dynasty, it’s just a formality.”

A week for the results.

That was Tong Shuwen’s experience and judgment.

However, the outcome surprised everyone.

As a week passed, there was no news from Middle State.

Even on the tenth day after the Yu Dynasty had submitted their program for review, Middle State remained eerily silent.

The people of the Yu Dynasty were getting anxious.

Should the program evaluation for the Spring Festival take this long?

Not just the Yu Dynasty, but Lian Li, the director responsible for the Qin Continent program evaluation, was anxious too!

The efficiency of Middle State’s program selection was very unreasonable. Normally, programs submitted from various states would receive an evaluation result within a week, as the performers still needed time to rehearse.

What’s the holdup?

Unable to restrain himself, Lian Li contacted Middle State to inquire about the situation, only to receive a dismissive reply: “The Spring Festival program selection is a major affair. Please be patient; results will be provided in due time.”

Alright then.

By the fourteenth day after the program submission.

Middle State had finally released their evaluation results.

Accompanying the results of the Yu Dynasty’s program evaluation was the arrival of an assistant director from Middle State’s Spring Festival directorial team!

“Invite the Yu Dynasty; I need to talk to them.”

As soon as this assistant director from Middle State arrived in the Qin Continent, he spoke to Lian Li.

“Is there a problem?”

Lian Li’s heart skipped a beat. He didn’t understand why the Spring Festival’s assistant director had come all this way.

From the auditing period.

Something seemed amiss.

If you say our program wasn’t selected, Middle State shouldn’t send someone so formally, especially not someone of an assistant director level.

If our program was selected, then there’s even less reason for Middle State to send someone, since the Yu Dynasty would be going to Middle State anyway.

“The situation is rather complicated.”

The Spring Festival assistant director patted Lian Li’s shoulder, “That’s why I personally made the trip to talk with them.”

“Alright then.”

Not wanting to reveal the result to himself.

Lian Li felt quite displeased but didn’t dare show it.

This Spring Festival assistant director wasn’t an ordinary individual, someone he couldn’t afford to provoke, especially since Middle State would likely incorporate and dominate various sectors in the future, and Lian Li, being a native of Qin Continent, didn’t want to offend such individuals. He could only comply with the other party’s request and contact the Yu Dynasty.

…

On the evening they received the contact.

Lin Yuan and the others from the Yu Dynasty went out for dinner and then proceeded to the Qin Continent Spring Festival evaluation branch, discussing various matters along the way.

“What’s going on?”

“Did someone come from Middle State?”

“Is it the Spring Festival’s assistant director?”

“Was our program selected or not?”
