Theme Song: "Unlucky"

The next day, Li Han, Tian Xiwei, Li Yitong, and Xu Yiruo had a meal together.

After finishing her meal, Li Yitong was about to leave, as she had another drama, "Chaoge," to prepare for.

Xu Yiruo also knew that Li Han wanted to create a same-sex couple pairing between Li Yitong and Tian Xiwei. She didn't care about it. There are quite a few same-sex couples in the Chinese entertainment industry. Some people shipped the "Four Dan and Two Bing" (referring to four top actresses and two top actresses) during the early days of the entertainment industry. More recently, there's Hu Ge and Huo Jianhua.

"Xiao Han, you'll be editing videos for the next while, right?" Xu Yiruo asked Li Han.

"Sister Xu, let's also record the theme song for this drama." Li Han nodded.

Editing videos wasn't a problem; with the backing of the Shanghai Theatre Academy, he had senior students and teachers to help him. However, the videos featuring the couples had to be edited by Li Han himself.

However, this afternoon, Li Hande and Tian Xiwei went to record a song first.

"Xiaohan, after this drama airs, you and Xiwei should hire a few assistants. You can't do everything yourself, and you also need an agent," Xu Yiruo said.

"Yes, that's what I think too." Li Han nodded.

An assistant is definitely needed to take care of Xiaotian's daily needs, and an agent is also necessary to handle communication and cooperation with the client.

Li Yitong and Tian Xiwei turned to look at the two of them.

Xu Yiruo smiled when she saw Li Han nod, and then she revealed her own plan: for the two sides to cooperate.

She currently only has one artist under her management, Li Yitong, who is also affiliated with Feibao Media. She will eventually go solo, and given her relationship with Li Yitong, the latter will definitely follow her.

Now that Li Han has demonstrated his abilities, Xu Yiruo hopes to cooperate with him.

Cooperation is a two-way street. You introduce resources to me, and I introduce my network to you. Under suitable circumstances, we can also exchange resources.

Upon hearing Xu Yiruo's words, Li Han thought for a moment and then said that there was no problem.

Li Han's biggest problem right now is that he lacks connections; he doesn't know many people in the industry.

Seeing that Li Han said it was no problem, Xu Yiruo smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll see if I find a suitable assistant or agent and recommend them to you... Xiao Han, which platform do you plan to air this drama on?"

Upon hearing this, Li Han thought for a moment. In his previous life, this drama was broadcast on iQiyi, and iQiyi was quite good in all aspects. However, iQiyi could not compare with Tencent Video after all.

Tencent Video may not have many other advantages, but it certainly has a lot of money. After all, it is backed by Tencent, and Tencent Games is a huge "blood transfusion" for it. Money has never been a problem for Tencent Video.

"Sister Xu, let's leave aside iQiyi, Youku, LeTV, Mango TV, Sohu... I plan to contact Tencent Video first," Li Han said.

"Tencent Video? I know people there too. If you want to air this show there, I can help you get in touch, and we can go together," Xu Yiruo said.

Upon hearing this, Li Han's eyes lit up. "That's great, Sister Xu."

In 2016, Tencent Video was not the same as it would be ten years later, capable of dominating the other three video platforms. At that time, Tencent Video was still the perennial third place, with Youku in second place and iQiyi in first.

At this time, iQiyi was the dominant player in long-form video, far surpassing Tencent Video and Youku in terms of popularity and other aspects. Next year, Tencent Video will start to exert its strength and begin to compete with Youku for the second place from time to time.

It wasn't until after the pandemic that Tencent Video dethroned iQiyi from its leading position, surpassing 100 million video members.

At this time, Tencent Video was also trying various methods to break through its own bottlenecks. Nobody wanted to be third place forever, especially since they had Tencent as their backer.

In the afternoon, Li Han and Tian Xiwei went to a recording studio in Shanghai.

Li Han had memorized the lyrics to the song "Non-European" and had a pretty good grasp of the melody, but that was enough, as the melody wasn't that difficult.

"It feels so hot"

It just so happens that you passed by.

The look in his eyes was carefree.

"But my hand just wouldn't move..." Tian Xiwei sang in a sweet and cute voice.

"I've never had this kind of hobby."

It's about taking care of that girl.

Slowly getting old

Ever since you called me a coward

"I am your support..." Li Han sang.

The lyrics and melody of this song are perfectly suited to this kind of youthful and energetic drama. The combination of the drama's plot and the song, to use a later meme, would make "it make even the corpses feel warm, and the lividity fade."

"That's all, Xiaotian. Let's go back," Li Han said.

"Have you named this song yet?" Tian Xiwei asked curiously.

"It's called 'Non-European,' meaning someone with a bad luck," Li Han said with a smile.

Tian Xiwei tilted her head. What a strange name.

After recording the song, Li Han and Tian Xiwei returned to school. Tian Xiwei chatted with her classmates in class, while Li Han went to edit the video with his seniors and teachers.

In the classroom, Tian Xiwei chatted and laughed with a few classmates. Everyone was praising her, saying that she would probably become a star after the show aired.

At this time, Tian Xiwei was young and naive, and her classmates soon praised her to no end.

Although she has finished filming the series, she has not yet completed the transition in her identity. She feels that she is no different from her classmates.

But in reality, everyone else knew that Tian Xiwei was no longer from their world.

As they chatted, Tian Xiwei turned her head and glanced at her roommates not far away. She hadn't spoken to them for several days, and the group had tacitly severed ties.

Li Han had also told her that once you enter the entertainment industry, as long as you're famous enough, you'll have plenty of friends.

In the evening, Li Han was editing videos in his room. He sat in a chair, tapping the screen of his phone to try out various background music tracks, his eyes fixed on the computer screen.

He edits videos at school during the day, and then he has to edit videos of several other people when he gets home at night.

Li Han, who had been quite busy all day, inevitably showed a hint of fatigue on his face.

Pushing open the door, Tian Xiwei entered carrying a fruit platter. She was wearing a red and white checkered nightgown, with her long, straight black hair flowing freely. She glanced at Li Han and stepped inside.

"Get some rest, don't overwork yourself." Tian Xiwei put down the fruit plate and said with concern as she looked at Li Han.

"Okay, you should rest." Looking at Tian Xiwei, Li Han smiled and patted the back of her hand.

Tian Xiwei smiled, tossed her hair, and then turned and left, not wanting to disturb Li Han any longer.
