The shop owner frowned and said, "Few people buy those. You can buy them if you want, but we don't have the latest ones, and the music may be a bit old."
Tang Lingfei: "Then how do you make money?"
Shop owner: "Teaching supplementary books, game discs."
Putting these two things together made Tang Lingfei want to laugh.
Song Xingye asked, "Are all the game discs here pirated?"
The shop owner rolled his eyes at her and said, "We have genuine ones, but no one really buys them. Why do you insist on buying the ones that cost one or two hundred yuan when there are two for five yuan? You can have them, I guarantee they are genuine."
Song Xingye: "But there are no latest games either, right?"
The shop owner said "hmm", too lazy to explain, and continued playing games.
Song Xingye pulled Tang Lingfei aside and whispered, "Just like the data I saw online, neither games nor music can make money by selling CDs. Online games make the most money, while music relies on concerts."
Tang Lingfei was a little surprised: "You still look up this kind of data online?"
Song Xingye nodded: "Yes, haven't you signed a contract with Xu Zhe and become his subordinate musician? I think you may need an agent in the future, so I was thinking..."
"Yes, you can be my agent!" Tang Lingfei hugged her best friend, "Xiao Ye Zi, you are so considerate."
Song Xingye: "Are you willing?"
Tang Lingfei nodded hurriedly: "Of course, it would be great to have your help."
Song Xingye: "Do you want to talk to Xu Zhe?"
Tang Lingfei immediately took out her cell phone: "I'll call him now!"
----
The first call Xu Zhe received was from Shen Lan. On the phone, Shen Lan learned about their schedule for the first year of high school and her tone became a little surprised:
"Ah? You guys have finished your exams and are on holiday?"
"Any questions?"
"Forget it then," Shen Lan sighed, "You should have a good rest. I have to continue preparing for the exam. I didn't expect that our senior year final exam would be more than a week later than yours."
Xu Zhe was a little confused: "Why do you sound a little regretful?"
Shen Lan: "I wanted to take a day off to look at houses with you... Never mind, just go do your thing."
Xu Zhe: "You can still take a leave to come and look at houses with me. I don't need to take a leave. It's perfect."
"Forget it, forget it. I'm going to start reviewing now."
Shen Lan hung up the phone in a hurry.
Xu Zhe suddenly realized that the fastest progress in his relationship with her seemed to be the day when they both took leave from school. Maybe it was because it was not a holiday, so Tang Lingfei and Song Xingye could not disrupt her plan?
At this time, the phone in his hand rang again. He looked and saw that it was Tang Lingfei calling.
After the call was connected, I heard the energetic girl's voice:
"Xu Zhe, I was just shopping with Xiao Ye and heard a store playing our music!"
“Isn’t that great…”
“But they didn’t pay us any copyright fees.”
Xu Zhe laughed in silence: "This is quite normal."
Tang Lingfei: "I now feel that as an artist signed by you, I may need an agent. Xiao Ye is very suitable, what do you think?"
Xu Zhe: "She's not a professional... But it doesn't matter. You're not in a hurry to break into the entertainment industry anyway."
Tang Lingfei: "What do you mean? We are not playing house!"
Xu Zhe smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I know you two are serious about this. Let's meet and talk about this when we have time."
He was thinking, if Shen Lan had not canceled the plan just now and continued to look at houses with him, and now she had something to discuss with Tang Lingfei, wouldn't she be meeting her love rivals again?

282. Chapter 280 279 The enemy is too strong
282.
On the afternoon before the winter vacation began, the first-year high school students returned to the classroom and received their report cards and piles of winter vacation homework.
Xu Zhe sat in his seat, looked at his deskmate and praised him, "You have come this far and are still able to keep improving. That's amazing!"
At the end of the first semester of his freshman year, he ranked 28th in the class and the whole grade. His deskmate Song Xingye ranked 14th, exactly half of his score.
Song Xingye whispered in his ear: "Thank you for your compliment, Master."
Xu Zhe was startled. He subconsciously looked around and saw that other students in the classroom were all paying attention to their own grades. No one noticed the slightly abnormal intimate behavior here, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Song Xingye had sat up straight and returned to his normal posture.
Xu Zhe lowered his voice and said, "I've already told you that it won't be like this if there are other people around."
"I'm sorry, I was wrong. I just wanted to make a joke..."
Song Xingye blinked his eyes, seeming apologetic, but also with a bit of cunning like a little fox stealing fish.
That little look made Xu Zhe feel as if his chest was being scratched by a little claw, and it was itchy.
He sighed, "Okay, don't do this again."
Song Xingye asked again: "Winter vacation has already begun, when are you going back? My dad told me that you are going to hold an annual meeting today and leave the provincial capital the day after tomorrow, right?"
Xu Zhe nodded: "It's time for me to go back and see my parents."
Song Xingye: "Do you want to go back together? We can also call Feifei..."
Xu Zhe: "Well, my dad will come to pick us up when the time comes. One car will just be enough for us."
Song Xingye couldn't help laughing again.
She knew that the winter break for senior year was shorter and it hadn't started yet. She and Xu Zhe could go back together, which meant more time together than Shen Lan. Although, the extra time would have to be shared with Feifei.
However, words that made her even happier were yet to come.
Xu Zhe suddenly said, "We will have our company's annual meeting later. Do you and Feifei want to go together? Feifei is already a singer in the company. If you want to be her manager..."
Before he finished speaking, Song Xingye quickly answered: "Okay!"
Xu Zhe smiled and said, "Then I'll send her a message now."
----
After the report cards were issued and the winter vacation homework was assigned, the winter vacation for the first year of high school officially began.
Before Xu Zhe and Song Xingye left the classroom, they heard Tang Lingfei's voice: "Aren't we going to attend the annual meeting? How do we get there?"
Nearly half of the other students in the class had already left, and most of the remaining people just glanced at it before packing up and leaving.
When Tang Lingfei first came to see Xu Zhe, many people were curious about the relationship between the two. But later everyone found that this classmate from Class 17 seemed to have more interactions with Song Xingye, and Xu Zhe had always been quite graceful towards them, and didn't seem to have any particularly intimate behavior. Over time, everyone got used to it.
In fact, when you think about the fact that Xu Zhe must have earned a lot of money for making a popular mobile game, he did not get carried away and still went to school every day like everyone else. This makes people sigh at his low-key attitude - of course, when I say going to school normally, he has much more freedom than other students.
"Uncle Song has already booked the venue, we can just go there later." Xu Zhe said this and led the two girls out of the classroom. However, before leaving the teaching building, he received a call.
The call was from Shen Lan: "Boss, I just asked Uncle Song for the address of the annual meeting. I just rented a car, can I take you there?"
Xu Zhe: "You rented a car? Wait, when did you get your driver's license?"
Shen Lan: "Just two days ago. Then I rented a car yesterday to get familiar with the steering wheel, so I can drive you today."
Xu Zhe: "You didn't tell me the day before yesterday or yesterday..."
Shen Lan smiled and said, "I want to give you a surprise. Come on, I'll be waiting for you at the school gate."
Xu Zhe noticed that she didn't say "you" but "you all". This meant that Shen Lan had guessed that it wasn't just him who went with her last year.
After the other party finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Xu Zhe put away his phone and looked at the two girls beside him.
Song Xingye: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing..." Xu Zhe swallowed his saliva, "Let me tell you first, Senior Sister Shen Lan should be the one driving us there later."
The girls were shocked.
Tang Lingfei: "Shen Lan? When did she get a car?"
Song Xingye combined the speech he just heard and said, "It was your senior who called you just now, right? She just passed her driver's license test and rented a car."
Tang Lingfei murmured, "Senior Sister Shen Lan is already eighteen years old, right? There is a score reduction agreement, and it is easy in school. She can take the driver's license test..."
The two girls looked at each other uneasily.
The fact that Shen Lan could drive touched them in different ways. It made them realize that they seemed to have not grown up yet, but the most powerful rival in love was already an adult. Adults seemed to be able to do more than minors...
For the next short distance, the three of them were silent.
When they arrived at the school gate, they saw a car and a short-haired girl standing next to the car door.
However, despite being mentally prepared, the car still shocked the three of them. It was a completely black Mercedes-Benz, which looked shiny and classy.
Shen Lan, who was standing there, seemed to have completely shed the immaturity of a high school girl. She was wearing a long windbreaker, black socks and boots - this combination was not the first time she had worn it, but at this moment, she stood next to the black Mercedes-Benz, looking more like a mature queen.
Of course, maturity is just a temperament. Shen Lan still looks like an 18-year-old girl. She doesn't need any makeup to look good. She has a youthful and delicate beauty. But the confidence in her eyes is quite rare among high school girls of this age.
Seeing this senior, Song Xingye couldn't help but gasp. Turning his head slightly, he saw Tang Lingfei standing there, stunned.
Xu Zhe walked over and asked, "Is this the car you rented?"
Shen Lan smiled and opened the passenger door: "Although I said I won't buy a high-end car now, you can drive it for a try. You know what, it's much better than the car I drove in the driving school."
"You can't compare the driving school's car with a Mercedes Benz..." Xu Zhe turned around and said, "What are you two standing there for? Get in the car."
Tang Lingfei suddenly grabbed Song Xingye's hand.
This behavior undoubtedly exposed the cowardice in the girl's heart. However, Song Xingye was not surprised, after all, the rival in front of him seemed too powerful.
Song Xingye whispered to comfort him: "It's okay, she won't eat us."
Tang Lingfei: "I'm afraid she'll eat Xu Zhe..."
Song Xingye: "That's not the case, right?"

Slacking off at work, catching up on the latest updates!
283. Chapter 281 280 Uncle Song doesn't want to care anymore
283.
The venue for the annual meeting of Chongkai Technology Company is a high-end Cantonese restaurant in the provincial capital. This company has only a single-digit number of employees, so only one table is needed to seat everyone.
Also coming was the CEO of our partner company, Lanzhe Technology - of course, the new employees had no idea how many people there were in Lanzhe Technology.
They only know that the partner company has achieved impressive results. The game "Ski Escape" has created a new track for parkour games in mobile games. Before this, the annual sales of "Ski Adventure", the leader in parkour mobile games, were only at the level of hundreds of thousands, while the monthly sales of "Ski Escape" have reached millions, which seems to have become a new hit in mobile games.
Moreover, the predecessor "Ski Adventure" that was greatly surpassed was the work of Chongkai Technology.
"In fact, although both games are about skiing, they are very different. The most obvious difference is that one is a three-dimensional game and the other is a two-dimensional plane."
Song Wanxi, a new employee of Chongkai Technology, is analyzing these two games with her friends.
The person who was discussing this in a low voice was Shi Yueyao from the Finance Department. The two female employees were both in their twenties or thirties, but their understanding of games was very different. After all, Song Wanxi was a programmer and had played more games than most boys.
Shi Yueyao glanced at the still empty main seat, then recalled the interview a few days ago, and said softly: "Our CEO Xu is really young. He founded two companies in just two years, and each one has better results than the last..."
Song Wanxi continued to analyze: "It is precisely because he is young that he can grasp the characteristics of mobile games and is not bound by the thinking of old media. Our company's first game has already reflected this very clearly. From "Fruit Cutting" to "Ski Adventure" and then to "Ski Escape", these games are becoming more and more suitable for mobile phones, but not suitable for playing on computers. If it were an experienced PC game producer, I don't think he would be able to achieve this effect."
Shi Yueyao looked at this new colleague who couldn't stop talking once he started, and a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes. She turned her head and looked at Gao Zhennan on the other side. This male colleague in charge of game operations lowered his head and looked at his phone, saying nothing, and was too silent.
Fortunately, at this time, the door of the box was finally pushed open again.
Xu Zhe led three girls in.
In an instant, Shi Yueyao's doubts reached a peak. She knew that there was another partner of Mr. Xu present today, but in her opinion, the CEO of Lanzhe Technology should also be a technical geek like Mr. Xu? Of course, his appearance probably couldn't compare to Mr. Xu's... But the scene at this moment completely overturned her guess.
