A song from Chengdu revived a closed-down pub.

When Deng Zongqi approached Su Fan and formally invited him to perform "As You Wish" on stage, Su Fan initially wanted to decline.

His original intention was to only write songs and not show his face.

But then he changed his mind.

Singing it yourself wouldn't be a bad idea.

Actually, the song "As You Wish" sounds great whether sung by a male or female voice.

Wang Fei's original version is undoubtedly the best, but Li Jian and Zhou Shen's versions are also quite remarkable.

All I can say is that each has its own charm and its own unique flavor.

Having agreed to sing the song "As You Wish," Su Fan has been spending all her time with the National Day program crew these past few days.

Besides rehearsals, he gradually got to know some of the people in the group.

After a few back and forth, Su Fan started to have his own plans.

There are many hidden talents in this program team, and there are several truly capable young people. He thought he should find an opportunity to recruit these people to his company.

However, these people are not so easy to control.

They are all veterans in the industry, with high standards and high aspirations. To think that you can win them over with just one or two songs is wishful thinking.

Just as Su Fan was worrying about this, an opportunity came.

On this day, Jiang Wenli and Lin Chongguang came to the program team to inspect their work.

The people in the production team had all heard of these two important figures to some extent.

That's someone an ordinary person might never see in their entire life.

Therefore, as soon as the two leaders appeared, the entire team immediately became extremely alert.

Upon seeing these two, Su Fan's eyes darted around, and he immediately devised a plan.

After inspecting the work, Jiang Wenli and Lin Chongguang didn't put on any airs at lunchtime and followed the crowd into the canteen.

After getting his food, Su Fan, carrying his tray, calmly approached and greeted them with a smile, "Boss, come on, let's find a place to sit."

The three of them found an empty seat and sat down.

Director Deng Zongqi, who was standing nearby, originally wanted to join the table, but when he saw Su Fan chatting and laughing with the two leaders, he wisely took his plate and found another seat.

In the cafeteria, everyone was engrossed in their own meals, but their eyes would occasionally glance at this table, their gazes filled with curiosity and speculation.

Jiang Wenli picked up a piece of food and casually asked, "Hey kid, did you get bullied on set?"

Su Fan was taken aback: "Boss, why do you ask that?"

"Then why did you come to us? Do you want us to back you up? Tell us, what's wrong? Just say it."

"Don't worry, boss. Everyone here is talented and speaks very well. I'm very comfortable here. Who can bully me?"

Jiang Wenli asked, puzzled, "Then why are you being so high-profile, insisting on sitting with us?"

"I haven't seen you two leaders for quite some time now, so I wanted to take this opportunity to give you both a proper report on my work."

"Oh? A work report?" Jiang Wenli said slowly, "How come I haven't heard you mention a single word about work?"

"We're making progress on our work, aren't we?" Su Fan replied confidently.

These words stunned Jiang Wenli and Lin Chongguang. The two looked at each other and were at a loss for words.

Jiang Wenli asked, "What do you mean?"

Su Fan explained, "I've spotted a few promising talents here and want to recruit them to my company. But with my current status, they don't even look at me. However, if they knew that I have some connection with you two, the effect would be quite different."

Jiang Wenli suddenly realized, then snorted irritably, "So, you're using us as pawns, trying to intimidate us with your own power?"

"It doesn't matter if it's a white cat or a black cat, as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat. Look, the way people look at me immediately changed as soon as I sat down next to you two."

"Then how are you going to explain your relationship with us to people?"

"It's simple. I'll just say it: you two are elders in my family."

"You're really good at making things up," Jiang Wenli chuckled.

"What, you're still not happy? From my master's perspective, am I wrong in saying this?"

Jiang Wenli thought for a moment and found himself unable to refute it: "Hmm, no problem."

At this moment, Lin Chongguang spoke up, "But you're getting so close to us, aren't you afraid that others will follow the clues and figure out what you represent?"

"Being secretive only arouses more suspicion. It's better to be open and let them guess. No matter how much they guess, they won't get to the bottom of it. This is called 'making the real appear real and the false appear real,' a mix of truth and falsehood. The more they try to see through it, the less they can understand it."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chongguang laughed loudly: "That makes sense. Alright, then you can use these two guns however you like."

"Thank you for your support, boss!"

The three chatted and laughed, enjoying their meal immensely, much to the astonishment of those around them.

Everyone was filled with questions, unable to fathom the relationship between Su Fan and these two top figures.

In a corner of the cafeteria, some people couldn't contain themselves and started whispering among themselves.

"How come Su Fan is so familiar with those two? They're chatting and laughing together, and they act like elders and juniors."

"Maybe Su Fan has a very powerful background."

"But isn't he an orphan? What kind of background does he have?"

"I heard he has a very powerful master. Is it because of his master?"

"Can being a master really give you that much influence? Don't forget, Elder Lin is practically the pinnacle of authority. Who among ordinary people could withstand that kind of respect?"

……

The more people guessed, the more uneasy they became.

After finishing their meal, Jiang Wenli and Lin Chongguang took another stroll around the production crew's premises.

Throughout the journey, Su Fan stayed by their side.

That ease and intimacy, no matter who looked at it, didn't seem fake.

Before leaving, Lin Chongguang said goodbye to everyone, but then turned around and said to Su Fan alone, with a kind smile, "I'm leaving now. Come visit me when you have time."

These words shocked everyone present.

Even Su Fan himself was momentarily flattered.

He remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was astonished: "Old Lin, you've gone a bit too far with this!"

After the two leaders left, everyone could no longer contain themselves and swarmed around them.

They took turns asking questions about the relationship between Su Fan and Lin Chongguang.

"Hey Su Fan, be honest with everyone, what's your relationship with Old Lin?"

Su Fan said, "What relationship could there be? Maybe it's just that Elder Lin finds me agreeable."

The more he downplayed and concealed the truth, the more people felt that the relationship between Su Fan and Lin Chongguang was probably unfathomable.
