Chapter 37

【Latest Broadcast】Tomorrow is May 15th, the anniversary of Qidian, the day with the most benefits. Besides the gift packages, this year's "515 Red Envelope Frenzy" is definitely worth watching. Why not grab the red envelopes? Set your alarm!

"Hello, Teacher Su, I am Mai Xiaoyu, the general manager of Mengren Film and Television. Thank you for your fair words just now." In Su Youpeng's dedicated rest room, Mai Xiaoyu sincerely expressed his gratitude.

This was Su Youpeng's dedicated rest room, a private space with its own air conditioning. Only his assistant was present to hear his instructions. On the other side, Liu Tao's rest area was crowded with people, noisy and chaotic, with some even secretly passing gas.

Su Youpeng was very polite, smiling and saying, "It was a small matter, no need to thank me specifically."

"To you, it might be a small matter, but to Liu Tao and our company, it is a great favor."

Scammers have many faces, showing different sides in different situations. At this moment, Mai Xiaoyu lowered his stance, completely different from his previous sharpness: "I don't know how to thank you. I'll give you an original song, hoping that Teacher Su will like it."

Send a song?

Su Youpeng was taken aback as he took the sheet music, showing a polite smile: "You're too kind. It was just a small effort, and your request for a reshoot is also responsible for the advertisement."

"Then I won't disturb Teacher Su's rest. Goodbye."

Mai Xiaoyu turned to leave, glancing back to see that the sheet music had not caught Su Youpeng's interest and was casually placed on the table.

Just one step away.

Sighing, he returned to the rest area, seeing from afar that Yang Xiaoxing and Liu Tao were discussing something. As he approached, he couldn't help but laugh and cry.

These two were actually discussing his age!

"Liu Tao, how old is General Manager Mai this year?" Liu Tao asked seriously.

"28."

"Then why does he call me 'Sister Tao'?"

"Does he?"

"Just now, he said, 'Old Yang, you direct, Sister Tao, you act.'"

Liu Tao imitated it well, refreshing Yang Xiaoxing's memory.

"Ah... It seems he did call you that." Yang Xiaoxing scratched his head, seeing Mai Xiaoyu return, "Boss, tell the truth, how old are you this year?"

"28, you've seen my ID."

"That's a fake ID." Yang Xiaoxing lowered his voice, "I'm asking for your real age."

"My real age is 28."

"Believe you, I am ×. You called her 'Sister Tao' just now, and she's only 22, younger than me!"

"Did I? You must have heard wrong."

"Did." Liu Tao said seriously, "General Manager Mai, are you really younger than me, an 80s kid?"

Damn, I slipped just now.

Mai Xiaoyu waved his hand: "Is discussing age meaningful? Or are you planning to turn the tables, Old Yang?"

"How could I? Whether you're older or younger than me, you're still my boss." Yang Xiaoxing laughed and changed the topic, "So, did Old Su like it?"

Mai Xiaoyu shook his head: "He didn't even look."

"Of course not. Old Su is such a big star, his standards must be high. Why would he like a song you wrote casually?"

"General Manager Mai, you can write songs?" Liu Tao, who just learned this, asked curiously.

"Just scribbled."

"Can I see what you wrote?"

"I gave it to Su Youpeng, I don't have a copy."

Yang Xiaoxing added: "What's there to see? The first line is a grammatical error."

Mai Xiaoyu: "..."

At this moment, a female staff member came to notify that all departments were ready, and the advertisement would start shooting in five minutes, asking Liu Tao to get ready and resolve any trivial matters quickly.

Liu Tao had no trivial matters and was ready to start, but Su Youpeng had something.

Indeed, after the advertisement director personally notified Su Youpeng, he saw him come out of the rest room, quickly walk out of the warehouse, and turn left at the door...

The opportunity has come!

Mai Xiaoyu had been keeping an eye on Su Youpeng's rest room. Seeing this, he pulled Yang Xiaoxing and walked out.

"General Manager Mai, where are you going?" Liu Tao asked.

"I'm going back, you focus on shooting the advertisement."

"Why are you pulling me back? Wu Weijie is not professional, I need to supervise him."

"Can't you see me out?"

Do you need to be seen out?

When did you become so fussy?

Yang Xiaoxing was confused. After being pulled out by Mai Xiaoyu, his confusion deepened.

Isn't your car parked over there?

Why are you pulling me to the toilet?

If you're going to the toilet, why are you standing outside the door?

Just as he was about to ask, Mai Xiaoyu gave him a look and said first, "I don't know if Teacher Su likes my song."

Hmm?

Are you trying to corner Old Su?

Yang Xiaoxing instantly understood and cooperated, "Definitely not. Teacher Su has been in the music industry for so long, his standards are very high."

"My song is not bad."

"Pull the other one, the first line is a grammatical error."

"Damn, Old Yang, you don't understand music."

"You understand, can you sing it for me?"

"Sure, listen carefully!"

Mai Xiaoyu cleared his throat and softly sang:

"If those two words didn't tremble,

I wouldn't have realized how sad I am,

How to say it,

It's just a breakup,

..."

Hmm?

Su Youpeng had just fastened his belt and was about to come out. Hearing Mai Xiaoyu's singing, he subconsciously stopped.

Mai Xiaoyu's singing was average, at the level of an amateur in a KTV, far from the professional level of a stage performer.

However, the melody of this song was beautiful, and the chaotic emotions and endless bitterness followed his singing, blending into the blood and flowing in the heart, making people immerse in the sad song.

Listening... it's not bad.

Yang Xiaoxing was a bit absorbed, being a director and not a singer, he judged the quality of a song purely by his own feelings.

This song feels good, but the location is not good, too damn smelly.

Su Youpeng didn't think it was smelly because he was completely immersed in Mai Xiaoyu's singing.

"... Until we became friends for many years,

I realized my tears,

Are not just for you,

But for others too."

After finishing the song, Mai Xiaoyu was silent for a moment, as if giving someone time to digest.

A minute later, he asked, "How is it?"

"Um... It's okay, barely listenable."

"Damn, you're just a music illiterate! I'm going back, I don't want to talk to you."

"Hey, not going to the toilet?"

"Hmph!"

"Hmph what? Didn't you say you'd take me to pee? You'll die of holding it in!"

The two argued and left, looking back to see no one coming out, quickly turning into a corner to hide.

"Boss, Teacher Su is a good person, don't be too harsh." Yang Xiaoxing whispered.

"Don't worry, I know my limits."

"How much do you plan to take? Isn't it good that we're not scammers now?"

"I don't plan to scam him for money."

"Then what do you want to scam?"

"An opportunity, an opportunity for Liu Tao to act in a TV series!"

The opportunity Mai Xiaoyu wanted was not a minor role or a guest appearance. He looked down on such roles. He wanted a supporting role, a significant one, to kick off Liu Tao's entry into the TV industry!

Yang Xiaoxing was not very optimistic: "Can a song get a significant supporting role?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Su Youpeng come out of the toilet, walking briskly back to the set.

"Teacher Su!"

"Teacher Su!"

Along the way, staff members greeted him, and Su Youpeng nodded in response, suppressing his urgency.

Returning to his rest room, he urgently called out as soon as he entered, "Xiao Song, where did you put the sheet music General Manager Mai gave me just now!"
