Feng Weixu said, "I'm supporting Shen Qing's new song too. But how can I show my support?"
Wei Hongsi was immediately stumped. He only knew that Shen Qing wanted to participate in the ranking competition, and he knew the general idea of ranking, but he didn't know the specific process, how the results were calculated, or how to support her.
Jiang Haiyang said, "When her new song is released, it will definitely be on the charts on major music platforms, and there should be some promotion and publicity."
As he spoke, he took out his phone, opened his usual music streaming app, and after scrolling through it a couple of times, he saw the notification for Shen Qing's new song. He said, "This is easy to find. Oh, the new song is released at midnight. I should definitely support it."
Wei Hongsi asked, "How can we provide support?"
Jiang Haiyang looked at Wei Hongsi, then at Feng Weixu, and couldn't help but laugh. He then explained the rules of pop music chart rankings to the two of them.
After listening to him, Wei Hongsi silently downloaded the music app Jiang Haiyang used and searched for Shen Qing's songs. More than thirty songs came up. She hadn't expected that someone who hadn't been in the industry for long would have so many songs. However, it seemed quite reasonable that she started releasing work before even graduating.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that most of the songs required a membership to listen to, so he bought a membership and added all of Shen Qing's songs to his collection, planning to listen to them one by one when he had time.
Feng Weixu is a bit better than Wei Hongsi; he has a music app on his phone, but he hasn't paid for it. He heard Jiang Haiyang mention VIP.
Since the music listening function has a high weighting, I also got a membership.
Wei Hongsi had just finished collecting all of Shen Qing's songs when a message popped up on his phone from Shen Qing: "Were you busy all weekend?"
He replied, "Yes, I went back to my hometown of Xicheng. I did a test at the company this afternoon and just finished."
Shen Qing asked, "So what are you doing now?"
Wei Hongsi: "I'm collecting your songs. Feng Weixu, Jiang Haiyang, and I are together, ready to support your new song's chart performance at midnight."
""
Shen Qing: "Thank you! But it's not my new song, it's ours!"
Wei Hongsi couldn't help but smile and replied, "Yes, ours."
Shen Qing: "Have you been doing any research lately? Preferably something so busy that you won't have time for anything else."
Wei Hongsi: "Weren't we supposed to be on the charts?"
Shen Qing: "I don't need to do anything. My aunt helps me with my personal account. I don't want to look at any information on music platforms these two days, and I don't want to see any information related to the new song's chart rankings. Otherwise, seeing the results will make me anxious, so I want to do something else to distract myself."
When Wei Hongsi saw this message, he could feel the pressure on the other person even through the phone, so he comforted him by saying, "The song 'The Brave' is fantastic. After you sent it to me that day, I listened to it for almost two hours straight."
Shen Qing: "Seeing you say that has given me a lot more confidence."
Wei Hongsi: "This song really gave me a lot of courage and confidence."
After replying, he was lost in thought for a moment. After regaining his memories related to the whistle, he did indeed feel fear and unease. Listening to Shen Qing's song "The Warrior" back then was essentially a reshaping of his emotions and a reconstruction of his cognition.
Therefore, it is normal that when we saw Feng Weixu sitting on the test chair during the actual test in the afternoon, he had a slight stress reaction due to his childhood experiences.
Because retrieving a childhood memory and merging with a memory are essentially the same thing. It's just that the memory originally belonged to oneself and did not contain fragments of other people's consciousness, but it did contain the emotions experienced during that event.
Having figured this out, Wei Hongsi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that if he were to regain his memories in the future, he should promptly reshape his emotions and do a good job of self-guidance and self-reflection.
While he was lost in thought, Shen Qing sent him two more messages: "Your words gave me a lot of courage. (chuckles)"
"Have you had dinner tonight?"
Wei Hongsi replied, "We're discussing what to eat. Do you have any good suggestions?"
Shen Qing: "If I had to choose, and it's this time of year, there aren't many places I can go."
Wei Hongsi: "Go to Jiang Haiyang's house to cook?"
Shen Qing: "Is that okay?"
Wei Hongsi looked up at Jiang Haiyang and said, "Want to come to your place and cook for us?"
Jiang Haiyang paused for a moment, then asked, "Now? Isn't that a bit late? If we buy it and cook it right away, it'll be past 7:30 by the time we eat, won't it be past 7:30?"
Wei Hongsi said, "Then let's hurry. You guys go buy some ingredients, I'll go pick up Shen Qing, and we'll go to your house later."
Jiang Haiyang said, "No wonder you've been silent for so long, you were chatting with a big star. Okay, I'll go back and get ready now."
Feng Weixu said, "You can order online, and the food will be delivered by the time you get home."
Jiang Haiyang gave a thumbs up: "That's a good idea, let's go."
Wei Hongsi sent Shen Qing a message saying he would come to pick her up right away, then grabbed his car keys, slung his bag over his shoulder, and headed out.
He drove to the underground parking lot, got in his car, and arrived at Shen Qing's apartment about twenty minutes later. As soon as he stopped the car, he saw Shen Qing coming out of the apartment gate, so he opened the door and let her get in. Then he turned around and drove towards Jiang Haiyang's house.
After the car started moving, Shen Qing complained to Wei Hongsi, "I'm so bored this week. Besides recording a few Vlogs for my aunt to use for publicity, there's nothing else to do. Sigh, I wish the treatment for patients in KR could continue."
Wei Hongsi said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if patients from KR don't come; the treatment methods can still be researched. The main problem is that I've been busy with other things this week, which has taken up too much of my time."
Shen Qing asked, "Can we continue next week?"
Wei Hongsi considered the situation and realized that the SR project team's main tasks had shifted to the Third Research Institute, so he wouldn't need to devote too much energy to it for the time being. He would only be providing support in the investigations of the Light Guide Society and Uncle Zhang's organization, which should free up some of his time.
"Apart from Wednesday, we should be able to do some things next week."
"That's good, now I have something to do with my time."
Wei Hongsi turned his head to look at her, smiled and said, "I don't think you need to be anxious."
Shen Qing shook her head gently and said, "Unless I can focus my attention on something else, I'll always be thinking about things like rankings and sales, and thinking about them makes me anxious."
Wei Hongsi asked curiously, "I think you're quite good at regulating your emotions, so why can't you regulate this?"
Shen Qing said, "This isn't an emotional issue."
Wei Hongsi asked, "No?"
Shen Qing nodded seriously: "It's more like a metaphysical question. Really, whether a song can become popular depends on the quality of the song itself, of course, but other factors are often more important, and a large part of these factors are beyond our control. Even if you want to work hard, you don't know where to direct your efforts."
