Huayu: Starting from managing the Mahua FunAge Theater Troupe

Emerging from the armory room, Shen Feiyang looked at Liu Kai, who was waiting in the corridor, and asked, "Have you finalized the interview with the *China Women's News*?"

Liu Kai nodded and replied, "Manager Chen just called and said that he has made contact and that they will send a reporter to conduct an exclusive interview with Teacher Gao at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

The China Women's News is an organization directly managed and sponsored by the All-China Women's Federation.

As a woman who has been deceived in two relationships, Gao Yuanyuan's use of this media outlet to speak out is not only appropriate but also allows her to directly reach the core audience of the TV series.

The China Women's News also needs to leverage the Gao Yuanyuan incident to amplify its own voice.

After considering the needs of both parties, Shen Feiyang nodded slightly: "Okay, you can go back to the company first. Contact me anytime if you need anything."

"Yes."

Liu Kai left with his staff.

……

We left the hotel.

We arrived at the ground-level parking lot.

Liu Kai and his group boarded the company's administrative vehicle.

Liu Kai sat in the passenger seat, opened his backpack, took out three envelopes, and handed them to the three employees sitting in the driver's seat and the back seat respectively: "Keep your mouths shut. Think about how difficult it is for you to establish yourself in Beijing."

The three of them accepted the envelope with joy on their faces.

Upon hearing Liu Kai's warning, the three quickly reassured each other, "Brother Liu, don't worry, we don't know anything."

The three of them really didn't know any of the details.

Only Shen Feiyang, who was in charge of planning, and Liu Kai, who was in charge of execution, knew the full picture of the entire incident.

However, to prevent any accidents and to cultivate his own clique, Liu Kai took a portion of the large red envelope he received and distributed it to them.

Liu Kai nodded: "Alright, let's go back to the company."

The car started.

Liu Kai looked out the car window.

A bustling street scene in Beijing.

He finally managed to get into this place from Henan, and he's determined to stay.

……

Shen Feiyang did not leave the hotel.

He booked a luxury room with a desk.

You only realize when you get to big cities that if you want a window in a hotel, you have to pay extra; if you want a desk, you have to pay extra too.

Shen Feiyang took out the paper and pen he always carried with him, and quickly wrote a draft interview based on his experience of watching Little Sweet Potato in his later years.

There are three key points in total.

First, Gao Yuanyuan is portrayed as an "awakened victim," not to elicit sympathy, but to have her say, "I experienced two unequal relationships before I realized that women need to understand themselves first."

Secondly, it naturally brings up the TV series "Struggle" and the character Xia Lin, allowing her to insert in her answer, "I'm currently playing a very clear-headed girl, completely different from the one I used to be."

Third, by severing ties with the old Beijing social circle, a signal is sent: "I no longer need those relationships and those men that I used to rely on."

More than an hour later, Shen Feiyang put down his pen.

He checked the draft of the interview he had written and nodded with great satisfaction.

Shen Feiyang checked the time; it was almost 7 p.m.

He picked up his phone and called Gao Yuanyuan.

He called, but no one answered for a long time. Suddenly, Shen Feiyang remembered that Gao Yuanyuan had put her phone on silent.

Shen Feiyang wasn't in a hurry to show the draft to Gao Yuanyuan. He rubbed his slightly hungry stomach, folded the manuscript, put it in his pocket, and got up to walk outside.

……

Eh?

Wang Luodan, who was having dinner in the hotel restaurant lobby, was delighted to see Shen Feiyang appear in her field of vision. She quickly got up and went over to him, saying, "Mr. Shen..."

Shen Feiyang turned around and looked at Wang Luodan, who was rushing towards him.

Approaching, Wang Luodan grinned foolishly and said, "You're here for dinner too?"

Shen Feiyang chuckled: "Otherwise, what would I be doing at the restaurant?"

"Hehehe...then come sit over there, I can order two more dishes, otherwise I can't eat by myself." Wang Luodan looked at Shen Feiyang expectantly.

"Alright, take me there."

"Okay, this way please..."

Wang Luodan gestured for him to proceed.

……

"Mr. Shen, why didn't you go back?"

After sitting down and ordering more food from the waiter, Wang Luodan looked at Shen Feiyang with a puzzled expression.

"I got inspired and wanted to write something, so I didn't leave," Shen Feiyang replied casually.

Wang Luodan thought Shen Feiyang had created some new work, so she cupped her face in her hands and said with admiration in her eyes, "You're amazing. Even after such a big thing happened, you can still calm down and create."

"It's nothing serious. We just deal with things as they come," Shen Feiyang said casually.

Wang Luodan was quite worried: "But you'll be dealing with Teng Huatao and Xu Jingyi, who are very familiar with many big shots in Beijing's social circle."

"Tsk..."

Shen Feiyang smacked his lips and teased Wang Luodan, "So worried about me? What, are you thinking of switching jobs to our company? Or do you like me?"

Wang Luodan said somewhat flusteredly, "I only signed with the company last year, and I still have several years left on my contract. I can't afford the penalty for breaking my contract. I'm just worried about you."

She then asked softly, "What would you do if I told you I like you?"

After Wang Luodan finished speaking, she didn't dare to look Shen Feiyang in the eye and instead lowered her head to tap the edge of the table.

Shen Feiyang looked at Wang Luodan and retorted, "What do you think I can do to you?"

Wang Luodan couldn't help but recall the scene he had imagined while mining that day.

Her face visibly turned red.

pat!

Shen Feiyang snapped his fingers and said, "What nonsense are you thinking about?"

Wang Luodan raised her head and hurriedly protested, "I didn't..."

However, her defense seemed somewhat weak.

Wang Luodan quickly changed the subject: "I really envy you for being able to control your own destiny."

"Sigh..." Wang Luodan sighed and confided in Shen Feiyang, "I was almost scolded to death by Sister Hong this afternoon. For a moment, I really wanted to quit the entertainment industry, go back to my hometown, find a kindergarten, become a music teacher, and live out my life like that."

Shen Feiyang said with a hint of teasing, "You were quite the go-getter when you stood up for Gao Yuanyuan at noon."

"That was just a moment of impulse..." Wang Luodan said dejectedly, resting her chin on her hand. "When I was in college, I knew that the film and television industry was not easy to navigate, but I thought that as an undergraduate student at Beijing Film Academy, I could at least make a name for myself. But when I got involved with some big shots, I realized that I was nothing special."

Shen Feiyang casually comforted him, "That's why you have to work hard to climb up the ladder. Once you're able to organize your own film production, you'll be able to control your own destiny. Playing the role of Mi Lai well is the first step in your long journey."

"Um!"

Wang Luodan nodded emphatically.

She continued, "Mr. Shen, I definitely won't publish an apology. If the company freezes me out because of this, I'll go back to my hometown and become a music teacher. I'll come back to you after my contract expires. You have to hold on."

"There's no need to be so extreme. We should believe that the drama 'Struggle' will definitely be a hit, and that the character Mi Lai will be loved by the public," Shen Feiyang said.

"it is good."

……

I had dinner with Wang Luodan.

Shen Feiyang packed another light meal and went to Gao Yuanyuan's room.

Bang bang bang.

After a while.

Gao Yuanyuan's languid voice came through: "Who is it?"

"I."

Upon hearing Shen Feiyang's voice, Gao Yuanyuan opened the door, took a few steps back, and let Shen Feiyang in.

Shen Feiyang walked in and casually glanced at Gao Yuanyuan, whose hair was disheveled.

Gao Yuanyuan wore only a short-sleeved shirt on top and a pair of super short shorts on the bottom.

"When did you wake up?" Shen Feiyang asked casually as he put the food on the table.

About half an hour ago.

"Eat your food first."

"it is good."

Gao Yuanyuan obediently sat down at the table.

Shen Feiyang bent down to pick up the hair tie that had fallen on the floor and tied it up for Gao Yuanyuan so that she could eat more easily.

It was a very casual gesture.

Gao Yuanyuan desperately needed this false love and care to sustain her.

Half an hour later

After Gao Yuanyuan finished her meal at a leisurely pace, Shen Feiyang stood up and placed the draft of the interview in front of her, saying, "Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, a reporter from the China Women's News will come to interview you. This is the interview content; please review it beforehand."

After saying that, Shen Feiyang was about to leave.

Gao Yuanyuan, wiping her lips with a tissue, didn't look at the draft of the interview, but quickly reached out and grabbed Shen Feiyang's clothes.

Shen Feiyang paused, grabbed Gao Yuanyuan's hand, and looked into her eyes.

I understood it instantly.

Shen Feiyang pulled Gao Yuanyuan up, then wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her.
