"That's fine," said Shi Shulei, "They've fallen so far from grace. Even if they broadcast at the same time as us, we have nothing to fear."

As soon as Shi Shulei finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment. Grabbing Zhang Zhisheng, he asked, "Zhang, do you think the way I reacted just now sounded just like Ge Guangzhen?"
"ah?" Zhang Zhisheng did not know what Shi Shulei was talking about.

"Aiya!" Shi Shulei explained, "Wasn't Ge Guangzhen arrogant like this before our show was broadcast, when we had just started recording? He thought we'd never beat him and looked down on us."
"Tjust disparaged Singing Voice too, and thought it would not be be able to beat us," said Shi Shulei.

"think... it's quite different." For a moment, Zhang Zhisheng was not quite sure how to respond.

He pondered for a while, then said, "Back then, both variety shows hadn't been broadcast yet. They were both at the recording stage. Ge Guangzhen became proud and confident solely on the basis that Singing Voice had done well for the first three seasons. He assumed that this season would do well too.
But we're different. Right now, only the last episodes of both shows are left, and the disparity in results is as clear as day. Isn't it obvious who will do better for the last episode's final battle night?"

"Moreover, like Tan Mo said, each season of Singing Voice had been worse than the last. Yet Ge Guangzhen remained confident that we would not surpass him. That was not confidence, it was arrogance," Zhang Zhisheng said, "It was completely different from you."

In his heart, Shi Shulei told himself that not only should he be careful of inflating himself in future, he should also be wary of Zhang Zhisheng's sugar-coated words.
"Anyway, if I'm ever over-confident like this again, please remind me," Shi Shulei said. "No matter how bad a rival program is, even if it can't be compared to our program at all, we mustn't be so conceited. Ge Guangzhen is still learning his lesson! He must be the butt of all jokes now."
Zhang Zhisheng was thinking that he would not dare remind Shi Shulei of such a thing.

Shi Shulei glanced at him and said, "You need not have any reservations. Any time you remind me of this, I won't get angry. Don't worry. On the contrary, if you don't remind me and I only realize it later, I'll get angry then."

"Just like this time. Fortunately, I figured it out on my own. Otherwise, that would be too scary," Shi Shulei said.

"..". Only now, did Zhang Zhisheng nod, "Okay."

At this moment, Liu Jingfu walked in.

"Director Shi, Assistant Director Zhang." When he saw that Zhang Zhisheng was also there, Liu Jingfu greeted him too.

"Til leave first then," Zhang Zhisheng said.

"I's nothing confidential. Since Assistant Director Zhang is also here, why don't you listen together? I had also planned to look for you, after speaking to Director Shi," Liu Jingfu said.

So Zhang Zhisheng stayed.

Liu Jingfu began, "I have yet to receive the list of guest co-singers for the four participating guests. But I heard that Singing Voice has made a last minute change to the format of its final battle night – to be exactly the same as ours. They usually invite guests only during a mid-season segment. But for
final battle night, they're inviting another round of guests."

Of course, Singing Voice could not be accused of copying I Sing.
If they were being honest, Singing Voice had actually come up with the idea of guest co-singers first.
