Huayu: Starting from managing the Mahua FunAge Theater Troupe

Shen Feiyang casually ordered some Cantonese dim sum and congee.

After washing up.

The hotel staff brought over the food.

Shen Feiyang and Xiong Naijin sat down at the dining table to eat.

After a long night of hard work, the two of them were starving.

While eating, Xiong Naijin would occasionally steal glances at Shen Feiyang.

Until the end of the meal, Xiong Naijin did not hear Shen Feiyang say anything about taking responsibility or confirming their relationship.

Although it was expected, Xiong Naijin was still a little disappointed.

Xiong Naijin wiped the food residue from the corner of her lips with a tissue, looked at Shen Feiyang, and said, "I've never had a boyfriend."

Shen Feiyang said in a serious tone, "I've never had a boyfriend either."

"Hahaha……"

Xiong Naijin was amused.

She continued, "Fine, I won't lose out by sleeping with a virgin like you. Will you come to Hepingli with me?"

Shen Feiyang tossed away the tissue he had used to wipe his lips and nodded: "One yuan, let's buy some medicine at the pharmacy on the way."

"What's wrong? Are you sick?"

Shen Feiyang shook his head and said, "I'm afraid you'll get pregnant, and an abortion will harm your body."

Shen Feiyang was genuinely worried because Xiong Naijin hugged him too tightly last night.

"snort."

Xiong Naijin was a little annoyed: "You must have had quite a few girlfriends."

Shen Feiyang rolled his eyes at her: "I was good at biology in high school, that's not true."

"Does biology class still teach these things?" Xiong Naijin asked hesitantly.

Shen Feiyang: "It's normal that you don't know since you didn't go to high school."

Xiong Naijin retorted, unconvinced, "But I'm a university student now."

"So what? I don't go to university because I don't want to."

Shen Feiyang stood up and said, "Alright, alright, let's get ready and head out. Make sure you have everything you need, and don't forget anything again."

"Wait a minute..."

Xiong Naijin stood up, walked around the dining table, hugged Shen Feiyang, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him.

Fortunately, I didn't eat anything too spicy.

Shen Feiyang put his arm around Xiong Naijin's waist and skillfully exchanged bacteria.

……

They lingered for quite a while.

Shen Feiyang and Xiong Naijin packed up, checked out, and left.

It's about eight kilometers from Beijing Hotel to Hepingli.

It takes about half an hour by taxi.

……

More than half an hour later, around 1 p.m., we arrived at Hepingli.

This area is all residential, so there are naturally pharmacies nearby.

Shen Feiyang went to the pharmacy and bought a box of levonorgestrel, then went to the company's office with Xiong Naijin.

The office is empty.

Huang Bode needs to drive over first to pick up everyone, and arrive by 2 PM.

There is a water dispenser in the office.

Shen Feiyang poured Xiong Naijin a glass of water.

Xiong Naijin had just sent Huang Bo a text message saying that she had taken a taxi and that he didn't need to pick her up.

"Take your medicine." Shen Feiyang placed the water glass and medicine on the coffee table in front of Xiong Naijin.

"Thanks."

Xiong Naijin picked up her water glass, obediently took her medicine, and then asked Shen Feiyang, who was sitting next to her, "When they come later, won't they suspect anything if they see you and me here?"

"Probably not."

Xiong Naijin raised her hand to brush a stray strand of hair from her temple and asked Shen Feiyang, "Should I come to your place tonight?"

"OK."

……

After a while.

Shen Teng, Huang Bo, and others also arrived.

Yu Shasha and Jiang Yan mingled in the crowd.

Seeing that Xiong Naijin had arrived so early, Shen Teng immediately looked at Shen Feiyang.

Shen Feiyang remained calm and composed.

When Yu Shasha saw that Xiong Naijin had arrived early, she thought to herself that Senior Sister Xiong was really diligent, and she should also work hard so that she could play the lead role in the play as soon as possible.

Jiang Yan's gaze fell on Shen Feiyang.

When she went back yesterday, during their bedtime chat, her mother told her to keep her distance from Shen Feiyang.

This was Mr. Jiang's judgment. Yesterday, Mr. Jiang talked with Shen Feiyang about doing business and found that 18-year-old Shen Feiyang was indeed very capable and much smarter than his daughter. So, in order to prevent his daughter from being deceived, he had to ask Ms. Jiang to tell Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan didn't have any feelings for Shen Feiyang at first. When Yu Shasha stirred things up before, she just felt that she wasn't charming enough and felt a little disappointed. But after her parents expressed their fear of Shen Feiyang, she became curious about him instead.

Shen Teng then spoke up: "Alright, let's begin rehearsals."

Everyone put their minds at ease and focused on rehearsals.

Shen Feiyang watched the rehearsal from the side, thinking about the Spring Festival performance that started the day after tomorrow, as well as a series of tasks after the New Year.

……

January 24th, the third day of the Lunar New Year.

The third round of performances of He Jiong's version of "Mahua" is about to begin.

It was a little after 10 a.m.

All company employees gathered at the Hepingli office to attend the resumption of work meeting.

"Everyone will receive a back-to-work bonus. New year, new beginnings, please don't think it's too little."

Shen Feiyang and Yu Kai, who were standing at the office door, handed out red envelopes to each employee who entered the room, each receiving 500 yuan.

"Thank you, Mr. Shen, and thank you, Mr. Yu."

After everyone received their red envelopes.

Shen Teng joked, "Being a boss isn't easy. Just these few days of the Lunar New Year, I've already spent tens of thousands of yuan on employee benefits."

Shen Feiyang glared at him: "Even if you get paid, it won't shut you up."

Shen Teng corrected him, "This is what I deserve for my hard work."

"Haha, Shen Teng is right. Everyone works hard for the company, and it's only right that we provide good benefits to everyone after the company becomes profitable," Yu Kai said with a smile.

Shen Feiyang: "Alright, let's start the meeting."

The meeting began.

Yu Kai shared his initial plans for the new year.

The performance schedule for the next month or so remains unchanged.

The company will subsequently launch two new theatrical productions.

Crazy Stone and Lost in Thailand.

The troupe plans to split into two performance groups, each staging one play. The scripts are still being finalized, and we will announce the roles each person will play later.

The announcement filled everyone present with anticipation for the new year.

If the performance is divided into two groups, there will definitely be more lead roles available, and who wouldn't want to be a lead?

Yu Kai also mentioned the television program, saying that it is being continuously promoted so that everyone can perform with peace of mind and do their best on stage. The troupe will not let go of actors with potential.

……

Six o'clock in the afternoon.

The Yifu Theater of the Central Academy of Drama.

Five buses still brought 200 free visitors, and the remaining 700 tickets sold out within an hour after going on sale at 2 p.m.

The backstage lounge of the theater.

"Happy New Year to Teacher He, Teacher Xie, and Teacher Yu."

After Shen Feiyang extended New Year's greetings to He Jiong, Xie Na, and Yu Na, he presented them with three red envelopes: "These are red envelopes for resuming work, and they are also a token of our appreciation from the Happy Twist Troupe. Please accept them, teachers."

After some initial refusals, He Jiong and the other two accepted the gift.

As celebrities, they only receive a friendly performance fee of 300-500 yuan per show, which is pitifully small compared to the tens or hundreds of thousands they can earn from a single commercial performance.

With the box office so booming, in order to prevent unpleasantness caused by feelings of unfairness, Shen Feiyang directly adopted the method of adding more money.

He Jiong received an extra 30,000, and Xie Na and Yu Na each received an extra 20,000.

We'll add more money after they finish their performance at the Haidian Theater.

As the saying goes, even if you spend all your money, it will come back again.

Shen Feiyang knew very well that if you don't know how to spend money, you can't make money.

After receiving the red envelope, He Jiong and the other two knew how much money was inside just by touching it.

He Jiong said politely, "Mr. Shen, you're too kind. We're all friends. We're not here to make money, but purely for the experience. If you have any good scripts in the future, you can show them to me."

"Okay, no problem."
