# Girl group initial evaluation.
A mentor on the panel picked up one of the profiles, curious. "I see you listed 'crane' under friends in the industry?"
The girl at center stage looked up, her expression unusually earnest. "Yes. He's the one who recognized my talent."
The night the show aired, top-tier star Xi Qianzhi posted on Weibo: "Can just anyone ride crane's coattails now?"
Everyone knew that crane was Xi Qianzhi's personal producer. Nearly all of his breakout hits, from his debut to his rise to the top, had come from "his" hands.
The trainee who had dazzled everyone the moment she appeared was suddenly thrust into the eye of the storm.

# People in the industry knew the award-winning producer crane was aloof, but few had seen his true face, and fewer still knew that a love letter he never sent lay hidden deep in his desk.
In her senior year of high school, Qian Xing had put her studies on hold to save her mother and set out on the path to becoming an idol. She dazzled audiences onstage, but backstage he blindfolded her and pinned her in front of a camera as he scolded her: "You've trained with me for three years. How can you still not know how to look at a camera?"
He was the legend in her heart, while she was the sole exception in his twenty years of life. The moment she saw her former deskmate become a behind-the-scenes mogul, Qian Xing's eyes reddened.
Beneath the night sky, she angrily tore away the mask he wore before the world. "When did you start planning all this?"
The night wind swept across the rooftop, stars filling the sky. He lowered his eyes, clasped her wrist, and pressed her hand to his heart. "From the first note you played in the music room, from the moment you ran out into a midsummer downpour, saying you would fight fate, from... every moment I looked at you from beneath the stage."
You were always as dazzling as a star.
Later, the whole internet pushed headlines about him and a popular young actress, joking that she was the inspiration for all of crane's love songs. At last, he couldn't take it anymore. He posted a photo and tagged her: "My girlfriend is right here."
In the graduation group photo, a boy in a school uniform in the back row gently rested his hand on the shoulder of the girl in front of him. The trending topics exploded.
# No star shines brighter than a childhood sweetheart, and the deepest love hides behind a sharp tongue #
# crane: She will always be my muse #
I can't influence other people.
But you are the one and only influence in my life.
Theme: Rather than chasing the light, walk alongside it.
