Golden Melody Award winner Ai Yi-liang and her long-time agent Zuo Guang-ping, known for their 'teacher-student and friend' dynamic in the entertainment industry, appeared together on the talk show 'Sit Down! Let's Chat.' Their bond, forged in high school and spanning over two decades, was tested when they revealed on the program that their highly anticipated concert, dubbed the 'egg-hatching plan,' was abruptly canceled last year due to Ai Yi-liang's vocal cord injury. This setback plunged both into immense pressure, leading to a period where they ceased all communication. The situation reached a critical point, threatening their professional relationship. However, a heartfelt gesture from Ai Yi-liang's parents ultimately bridged the gap. Her parents sent a text message to Zuo Guang-ping, expressing their gratitude for his decision regarding the concert cancellation. This simple act of understanding and support allowed Zuo Guang-ping to release his pent-up emotions, tearfully admitting he felt immense relief. Ai Yi-liang shared her perspective, emphasizing her complete trust in her agent's decisions, stating, 'Whatever decision he makes, I never second-guess him.' This mutual trust, despite the difficult circumstances, allowed them to navigate the crisis and regain their rhythm.
I don't have pressure, five points are enough to win the championship.
