As a newcomer, Qin Yuwen must sing her own song first; the second can be a cover.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pray for Qin Yuwen!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You Are a Singer” has seven competing singers total; today is the challenge round, so if the challenger succeeds, one contestant is eliminated; if she fails, the next challenger comes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a challenger, her identity was kept completely secret—no singer knew who would be challenging today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the expert consultants gave their critiques, the audience judges voted; Qin Yun and Su Huan each had two votes, both cast for Li Jian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next came the next competing singer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As singer after singer performed, the overall audiovisual experience was truly excellent—each singer was a master, and every song was familiar; Qin Yun was fully immersed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Wang Sulong finished his seventh performance, Qin Yun told Su Huan: “Qin Yuwen has no chance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Huan felt the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, host Liang Nan took the stage to introduce the next segment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you to Wang Sulong. Now, please welcome the challenger—Qin Yuwen.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She is a rising new force in the music industry; her single ‘A Flicker Enters’ received massive praise upon release and has consistently topped the new song charts. Her voice is sweet and delicate, her style gentle and healing, skilled at using song to portray emotion and convey warmth. Though young, she possesses deep passion and unique insight into music. Today, she gathers the courage to step onto this stage and challenge her senior peers as a newcomer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The stage is hers—please welcome Qin Yuwen!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to the host’s long speech, Qin Yun thought: it was impressive how much they could fabricate—Qin Yuwen had only debuted half a year ago, yet they made her sound like a true rising star of the industry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunderous applause; under the lights, she wore a silver-to-white gradient strapless gown that accentuated her slender, elegant collarbones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yuwen calmed her nerves and walked step by step to the center of the stage. She had a sweet, doll-like face, fair translucent skin, her black hair styled into a bun, giving her a fresh, lively appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Onstage, she immediately spotted Qin Yun and Su Huan—especially Su Huan, whose demeanor and beauty earned her a quiet admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yuwen nodded to the band; as the music began, her rendition of “A Flicker Enters” unfolded gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it bad? Not bad. Was it good? From Qin Yun’s perspective, it wasn’t particularly good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But under this atmosphere, especially live, it carried considerable emotional power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Qin Yuwen’s vocal technique was solid—throughout the entire performance, not a single mistake; compared to the seniors, her skill was already worthy of pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the song ended, applause rose, and the expert consultants began their critiques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their critiques were fair enough; then came the audience vote. Unknown whether Jiang Tao intentionally did it, the large screen showed audience shots, deliberately sweeping over Qin Yun and Su Huan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially when the two pressed their voting buttons, it was especially obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This left Qin Yun amused and exasperated—damn, can they even do this? Do I really have that much influence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And strangely enough, many live audience members did notice; some, out of respect for Qin Yun, actually voted for Qin Yuwen. Though less than a third changed their minds, that small shift meant Qin Yuwen didn’t finish last—she placed fifth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, if she didn’t bomb her second song, she might actually succeed in her challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Huan leaned close to Qin Yun’s ear: “Looks like the director really understands the essence of traffic.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun nodded helplessly: “Let them ride the wave. I don’t lose anything anyway. Do whatever you want—I’m just helping Qin Yuwen out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the final result, Qin Yuwen, her manager Yang Jiajia, and Xing Mang Entertainment’s CEO Liu Jiahui all exhaled deeply in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Liu Jiahui, who knew her company desperately needed a flagship artist—Qin Yuwen had to perform exceptionally well during the livestream. If even ten percent of viewers remembered and liked her, it would all be worth it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master Qin, thank you for coming.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yuwen had barely succeeded in her challenge as the seventh-place contestant, and she knew exactly how much of it was her own talent—she was profoundly grateful to Qin Yun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun smiled faintly: “See you at training. Good luck.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After bidding farewell to Qin Yuwen, Qin Yun stepped out of the International Film & Television Center. Just as he was about to get in his car, a luxury van pulled up beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master Qin!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The window rolled down, and Li Jian leaned out: “Let’s have dinner together—I’ve reserved a table at Yunxi Xiaoguan, and Teacher Na Ying is coming too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun glanced at Su Huan, who looked tempted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If so…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I won’t be polite. Teacher Li, go ahead—I’ll follow shortly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jian was delighted, nodded, and had his car drive off from the center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Qin Yun and Su Huan arrived at Yunxi Xiaoguan, Li Jian and Na Ying were already there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun knew little about the two, but he had heard their songs—especially Na Ying, whose hits were countless. Still, she later got embroiled in controversy and was heavily criticized for some outrageous remarks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun had no personal likes or dislikes; before he became famous, he only appreciated the music, never judging the artist’s character.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like in ancient times—many poets were complete scoundrels, yet their works still endured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four met again and reintroduced themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jian was exactly as rumored—cultured, refined in speech, and witty; in just a few sentences, the initial awkwardness dissolved into familiarity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Na Ying, meanwhile, was bold and unrestrained—when she drank, it was terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the alcohol flowed, she fully let loose, venting without restraint about every figure in the entertainment industry; Su Huan was thrilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Na, keep going!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Huan refilled her glass eagerly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun rubbed his forehead, smiling apologetically at Li Jian, who didn’t mind and chuckled: “I heard your livestream concept hasn’t been finalized yet? Still planning?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although promotional campaigns had started, they only promoted the participants—not the content. The real promotion would begin only after everyone gathered for training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the public knew nothing about the livestream’s current status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s decided. Not announced yet,” Qin Yun said without hiding it. “I plan to go to the Taklamakan Desert and trek across a thousand kilometers of desert until survival is achieved.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing “Taklamakan Desert,” Li Jian was stunned: “That’s the ‘Sea of Death’—extremely dangerous.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Danger makes it challenging,” Qin Yun smiled. “Besides, this is already my compromise. If I’d chosen the other two options, I wouldn’t even be sure I could get them all out alive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jian quickly asked: “What are the other two?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yun told him. Li Jian shook his head after hearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Too extreme. Compared to you, my little fitness routine is like child’s play.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha,” Qin Yun laughed. “Maybe someday I’ll invite Brother Li to join me on a livestream, tackling all kinds of extremes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…,” Li Jian actually hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner and conversation, they exchanged contact information and parted ways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the following days, Qin Yun began organizing training logistics, and Douyin had nearly finalized the contract details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On September 18th:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Yuan, Ryan, Tanaka Aoi, Elizabeth, and Qin Yuwen each received a private message from Qin Yun; apart from Qin Yuwen, the other four also received plane tickets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【September 20th: Ban Shan Lìyě Training Base, Hangzhou. Official training begins before livestream. Livestream starts October 8th.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Location: Taklamakan Desert; Challenge: Trek a thousand kilometers of desert to achieve survival. Each participant carries only one 500ml water bottle, one weapon (choose freely), one tool (choose freely).】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as this social media teaser was posted, Douyin launched a global promotional campaign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since it was a Douyin collaboration, domestic livestreaming would be on Douyin, international livestreaming only on TikTok; YouTube and Twitch would have to be temporarily abandoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As promotion began, Su Huan also became busy—ads, partnerships, business deals—phone after phone call, the entire company never stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>",1479,"2026-06-20T21:37:30.093Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","5234e39871502bafb526602e56ffef49b17f5015fba1eff00ceea63448a4f550","bound-to-the-sign-in-system-i-took-off-chapter-326","bound-to-the-sign-in-system-i-took-off-chapter-324",329,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbound-to-the-sign-in-system-i-took-off-cover.jpg"]
