Principal Xu had already given her a goal long ago and would hold a succession ceremony in March next year.

Before that, the most direct way for her to enter the Research Institute was through her achievements. Only high-level research results could convince the public.
Qin Ran was only 20 years old this year. ICNE was an important international cooperation project and was the best route that Principal Xu found for her according to the various plans it offered.
Registration for this project started in May this year. Principal Xu had a place for the finals in his hands and had paved a way for Qin Ran in May this year.
He had been very thoughtful for his heir.
Dean Jiang didn't reply to her message for a long while.
At his home, Zhou Ying, sitting across him drinking tea, unhurriedly said, “Qin Ran didn't participate in the laboratory's special training, so the research professors who are devoted to the Research Institute don't know about her. Once she participates in the ICNE competition in May next year, many teachers will rush to accept her as an apprentice.”

Other than a small number of small-minded people, most people engaged in research hoping for their disciples to do useful research.
Zhou Ying finished speaking and discovered that Dean Jiang was silently staring at his phone, in a daze.
He took a sip of tea and then called out, “Dean Jiang?”
“Oh.” Returning to his senses, Dean Jiang turned off his phone and then turned it on again to take another look.
“Are you okay?” Zhou Ying asked in concern.
Dean Jiang shook his head and hesitantly said, “I just chatted with Qin Ran.”
“What did she say?” Zhou Ying thought of her confusing operation and sat upright. “Did she say she wants to withdraw?”
“No.” Dean Jiang glanced at his phone again to confirm that he hadn't seen wrongly and continued, “She seemed to just say she might be participating in the finals in February next year?”
Then, he handed his phone to him. “Help me take a look. Did I read it wrong?”
Professor Zhou looked up dully and was speechless.
At Beijing University, a few minutes after that, Qin Ran received a message.
Dean Jiang: […]
She looked at it and replied [Thank you, Dean Jiang] before casually putting down her phone.

“This is a team competition.” Nan Huiyao picked up her chopsticks and curiously asked, “Have you found your teammates for the competition? I know a few seniors…”
Qin Ran continued eating and thoughtfully looked at the three of them.
This type of team competition normally had 2-5 team members…
But Principal Xu hadn't assigned her team members.
She thought about it and didn't immediately answer.
At 1 pm, they finished eating.
After Chu Heng and Xing Kai finished gossiping and confirmed that the Qin Ran online was indeed the Qin Ran they knew, they returned to their dormitory, where a large group of brothers was waiting for their latest battle news.
Nan Huiyao looked at Qin Ran. “Are you going back to the laboratory now?”
“No.” Qin Ran shook her head, buttoning the hat behind her and putting on her scarf again, exposing only a pair of eyes. She slowly said, “I'm going out, someone is waiting for me.”
“Oh, I'm going to the pedestrian street as well.” Nan Huiyao put a hand on her shoulder and laughed. “What a coincidence.”
The four divided into two groups; one group returned to their dormitory while the other headed outside.
In less than 20 minutes, Nan Huiyao and Qin Ran arrived at the gates.
It was cold today and was also Monday, so the number of people outside was much fewer than usual.
Nan Huiyao wasn't in a rush and waited together with her.
“Ran Ran, who are you waiting for?” Nan Huiyao pulled up her scarf.
Standing on the side of the road and casually looking at the one-way street, Qin Ran saw a car slowly drive towards them, and indifferently said, “My uncle.”
“Your uncle?” Nan Huiyao nodded.
She felt like something was amiss.
She was thinking about it when a big car stopped not far from them.
A man wearing a bucket hat got down from the back seat, wearing a black mask.
Nan Huiyao looked over in a dazed manner, pointed at Qin Xiuchen, and asked Qin Ran in shock, “Isn't that my male God, Film Emperor Qin?”
Behind Qin Xiuchen, the manager was shocked to see that she could recognize him.

Were her eyes microscopic?
Since she was Qin Ran's friend, Qin Xiuchen very politely greeted her. “Hello.”
Nan Huiyao was speechless.
Oh, she remembered it now—
In “24-hours Idol,” Qin Ran was Qin Xiuchen's niece, and he must be her Uncle.
Ever since she became roommates with Qin Ran, she received shock after shock. Now, Qin Xiuchen was her uncle, she had entered the laboratory, and even had 20-stars on the Supreme level…
It didn't seem particularly shocking for her to meet her male God face to face…
Five minutes later, she walked onto the street in a trance and entered a boutique shop. The owner politely asked, “What do you want to order?”
She finally returned to her senses.
Outside the gate.
In Qin Xiuchen's car.
Qin Ran sat in the back seat, pulled off her hat, took out her phone, and directly called Master Wei.
The phone rang twice and was picked up.
“Teacher.” She leaned against the window.
On the other end, Master Wei was in Continent M. After Qin Ran reached the estimated seventh-grade in advance, he didn't force her to rise further. It already wasn't easy for ordinary people to study diligently and reach a medium grade for music, and it required more talent the further they climbed. Some people found themselves stuck in a bottleneck for decades.
“Why contact me all of a sudden?” Master Wei waved his hand and asked the people beside him to head out. He stood at the window and smiled. “Have you decided to come to Continent M?”
“No.” Qin Ran immediately denied it and continued, “My Uncle wants to see you.”
Master Wei was holding lectures in Continent M this month and hadn't paid attention to domestic news. “Your real Uncle?”
Qin Ran glanced at Qin Xiuchen. “Yeah.”
“Sure,” Master Wei answered simply and neatly.
Qin Ran hung up and sent Qin Xiuchen's contact information to Master Wei.
Then, she reported Master Wei's contact information to the manager.
The manager noted it down and glanced at Qin Ran… That was it?
Shouldn't a grandmaster like Master Wei be busy every day? Wasn't he either preparing for a concert, giving lessons to other people, or practicing the violin…
“You're going to Continent M tomorrow?” Qin Ran glanced at Qin Xiuchen. She had heard from Tian Xiaoxiao that he had taken a movie in Continent M.
He nodded. “Yes, there's a movie there. I'll take half a year to film it.”
Some of the well-made movies took even a few years to make. Half a year was just Qin Xiuchen's personal participation time. The movie had a hero theme and many protagonists, and his part only required half a year.
“That's good.” Qin Ran buttoned her hat again. “My teacher is also in Continent M.”
She grabbed her backpack and got out of the car.

She didn't have any experiments in the afternoon and, instead of going to the Physics laboratory, headed to the library to perfect her thesis.
The manager silently stared at her back as she left.
Then, he turned his gaze to Qin Xiuchen, was silent for a moment, and sighed. “Your little niece comes and goes like the wind… she has really inherited your Old Master's style.”

In Ning Qing's apartment.

The ever-graceful Lin Wan knocked on the door.
After a while, Ning Qing opened the door. “Sister-in-law? Come in.”
She immediately let her in.
Lin Wan sat at the table and looked at her, smiling more genially than before, and affectionately held her hand. “You should have heard about what happened online.”
The smile on Ning Qing's face stagnated. She hadn't slept well in the past few days and had felt restless, so her expression also looked more lethargic.
Qin Ran and Film Emperor Qin were so popular on the Internet. How could she not know?
She didn't even imagine that Qin Hanqiu, originally a brick mover, turned out to be Qin Xiuchen's brother…
Her heart had felt numb the moment she saw the news on the Internet.
“I naturally know.” Ning Qing withdrew her hand, lowered her head, and poured a glass of water for Lin Wan. She felt distinctly bitter.
Lin Wan looked at her and knew that she probably hadn't figured out Qin Xiuchen's identity. Picking up her cup, she suppressed the remorse in her heart. “Film Emperor Qin is actually the heir of the Qin family. You might be unfamiliar with them, and I am too. But Old Master Lin once told me that although the Qin family has fallen, they're still in the middle of the pyramid in Beijing. In terms of its status in Beijing, even a hundred Shen families wouldn't match up.”

“Bam—”
The teacup in Ning Qing's hands fell to the ground.

She blankly stared at Lin Wan.
No wonder Qin Yu said that Qin Hanqiu had bought a lot of jewelry for Qin Ran last time. At that time, she even maliciously wondered if he had to be assimilated by reality…

The next day.
It was 4:30 pm in Continent M.
Qin Xiuchen and his manager had just left the airport, following the director and his group.
The director leading everyone had blond hair and blue eyes. He solemn instructed, “We're at the Continent M's borders. The staff has already gone through the border documents. Everyone should know their regulations, so don't randomly walk about. If anything happens, there's nothing I can do.”
The others nodded.
Continent M's landing strip wasn't domestic and was occupied by a few forces. There were no specific rules, and it was easy to get into trouble without following the team.
In this chaotic country, even people in the four major families must abide by the rules.
Holding his suitcase in one hand, Qin Xiuchen wore a slender and straight overcoat. He wasn't so famous here and could do whatever he wanted without being recognized nor having to wear a bucket coat.
He took a few steps and saw a young man getting off a black car on the wide road outside.
“Uncle Qin.” The young man came straight to Qin Xiuchen and politely bowed. “Hello, I'm Wang Zifeng, Sister Ran's junior. Master Wei asked me to wait here for you.”
Not to mention Qin Xiuchen and the manager, even the director beside them had never seen such a situation before.
“Qin, you know someone in Continent M?” The director was shocked.
In Continent M, unless it was the forces stationed here, or some colleges and special tour groups, nobody dared to drive outside the border at will.
Others also curiously looked at Qin Xiuchen.
Film Emperor Qin pursed his lips. He greeted the director, arranged to meet in Continent M's center, and then got into the car with his manager.
“Sorry to trouble you.” The manager was in awe of Wang Zifeng for daring to drive outside Continent M's border.
He knew that Master Wei was a special lecturer invited by Continent M's Association…
But he didn't expect his status in Continent M's Association to be so high. Otherwise, how could his disciples dare to go back and forth at the border?
Wang Zifeng sat in the co-pilot seat while the manager sat in the back seat. He couldn't help but send Film Emperor Qin a message—
“This Master Wei is incredible. No wonder you said that the Xu family is riding on his coattails. His disciple even dares to go in and out of Continent M's border so freely. If only your little niece was here with us…”
He couldn't help thinking of Qin Ran.
He also felt doubtful at the same time. Tian Xiaoxiao said that Qin Ran was Master Wei's chief disciple, but why didn't she come?
Four hours later, at 8 pm, Wang Zifeng's car arrived at Continent M's Association.
They got out of the car, and Wang Zifeng asked Qin Xiuchen, “Uncle Qin, do you want to see Master Wei now, or do you want to take a break and see him tomorrow?”
From his tone, Qin Xiuchen and his manager both heard the hint that Master Wei was completely following their schedule.
Narrowing his eyes, Qin Xiuchen felt extremely doubtful inside, but his face was rigorous and polite. “Do you know which time would be convenient for Master Wei?”
Since Master Wei had been introduced by Qin Ran, he naturally didn't want to leave a bad impression on him.
Seeing the cautious appearance of Qin Xiuchen and his manager, Wang Zifeng quickly waved his hands and then laughed. “Uncle Qin, Sister Ran is our teacher's only closed disciple. Our teacher is willing to open this side of him to her. She didn't want to come to Continent M's Association, so he didn't force her to and handed me the place instead. We're not giving you conventional greetings, so please don't speak to me like this. I…”
