Tang Lingfei quickly tugged at her best friend's clothes and gave her a wink.
Song Xingye asked calmly: "What's wrong with Feifei? Don't you want others to hear it?"
Tang Lingfei: "That song doesn't seem to be suitable..."
Shen Lan: "Not suitable for me to listen to?"
Tang Lingfei was a little confused: "I can't say it's not suitable for you to listen to, it's just..."
Seeing Tang Lingfei's expression, Shen Lan became interested: "But the song you practice is going to be released, and I will always hear it in the future. Any problem?"
"Okay, okay, then follow me." Tang Lingfei sighed as if she had given up on herself and led the two of them into the practice room.
The girl picked up the electric guitar, sat down, and started singing.
Listening to the song "Don't Forget to Invite Me to Dinner If You Have a Girlfriend", Shen Lan quickly understood why her love rival didn't want to sing it in front of her - don't these lyrics sound like the song has already been lost in the Shura Field?
But as Tang Lingfei sang, she kept thinking about Xu Zhe's efforts for her. The more she thought about it, the more confident she became.
That’s right, Xu Zhe is definitely different from other boyfriends in the lyrics! He really cares about himself!

318.
When Wu Chengxu walked to the door of the studio according to the address, he felt very confused.
Because there was no sign of [Lan Zhe Technology] at the door, only a simple digital house number [3-7]. He couldn't help but take out his phone to check it again, making sure he was in the right place, and then sent a text message.
Soon, a tall girl in a windbreaker appeared at the door and opened it for him.
Although the girl's dressing style was a bit mature, Wu Chengxu could tell at a glance that she was definitely no older than 20. After all, the youthfulness on a face could not be faked.
After opening the door, the girl returned to her hands in her pockets. The eyes behind the lenses were full of confidence, but what was even more impressive was... those eyes, so beautiful.
As a professional journalist in his thirties, Wu Chengxu has interviewed many people from all walks of life, including some celebrities in the entertainment industry. He has seen many beauties, but he has almost never seen such a combination of youth and confidence.
Of course, Wu Chengxu has always been very calm. He just smiled politely and asked, "Hello, is Ms. Shen here? I have an appointment with her."
"Yes, that's me. My name is Shen Lan, I'm one of the founders of Lanzhe Technology, and I'm also the main producer of that game."
The girl's voice and tone were even colder than her appearance.
Then Wu Chengxu's concentration could no longer bear it.
He was surprised and said, "You are Mr. Shen? No... Aren't you the receptionist of the company?"
Shen Lan: "My company doesn't have a front desk right now because we don't need one. To make a mobile game of this size, we don't need too many people. Most of the work is done by me alone."
Wu Chengxu: "You're the only one? You're the only one in a game with a turnover of tens of millions of yuan?!"
"I'm not the only one getting paid. I have a boss who's sitting in the conference room over there."
After saying that, Shen Lan took him inside.
Wu Chengxu walked and observed. He found that the environment of this place was good, but it was particularly deserted. There was not even a single employee anywhere he looked. It seemed that there were really no other employees, only the boss working alone.
This was the first time he had come across such a company. After all, he would only interview companies that had achieved certain success, and a normal company still had to rely on the majority of its employees to work.
In the conference room, there was indeed a person sitting there waiting. But the appearance of this person made Wu Chengxu's pupils tremble again.
"Hello, is this reporter Wu? My name is Xu Zhe, and I'm a shareholder of Lanzhe Technology."
"Yes, hello..."
Wu Chengxu sat down across the conference table, bewildered. He really didn't expect that the "boss" Shen Lan mentioned actually looked younger than her! He couldn't even be called a college student, he looked like a high school student!
So just after taking out the recorder and notebook, Wu Chengxu said: "Before we officially start the interview, I would like to ask one more question. I wonder if it is convenient to disclose your ages..."
Xu Zhe smiled and said, "There's nothing wrong with that. I'm sixteen."
At this time, Shen Lan had just sat down next to Xu Zhe and said casually, "I'm a little older than him, eighteen years old."
Oh Seung-seo: “But you made a hit game.”
Xu Zhe: "It's just a small-scale mobile game. How about we start the interview now?"
"Oh, oh, okay..." Wu Chengxu wiped his forehead and pressed the button of the recorder. "How do you think I should address you? Mr. Xu?"
Xu Zhe: "That's fine. I'm President Xu and she's President Shen."
Shen Lan suddenly asked: "You seem to be concerned about our age. Is this important?"
Wu Chengxu: "It's mainly because I'm too shocked. I also checked your company's information before coming here. I read everything I could find online, as well as some gossip and chat from netizens. Because you have never appeared in public, no one knows your image, so some people are still speculating that this game was made by some veterans in the gaming industry."
Xu Zhe asked back: "Why a senior veteran?"
Wu Chengxu: "Because its design and the way the entire gameplay is implemented are very sophisticated. Oh, I don't really understand the game, and I haven't played it much, but I just read what the more recognized reviews on the Internet said."
Shen Lan smiled and said, "Then you have to ask Xu Zhe. I am responsible for programming, but the entire gameplay design was done by Xu Zhe."
Wu Chengxu asked again: "So, Mr. Xu, are you born this way? Do you have a special understanding of games?"
Xu Zhe: "Because I have played a lot of games. Innovation requires breakthrough ideas, but the ideas themselves also come from past experience. For example... let me ask you a question, what is your favorite game?"
Oh Seung Seo: "Me? Uh, my favorite is "Aura Star"."
Xu Zhe: "Huh?"
Shen Lan: "What is that?"
Xu Zhe: "Is this a game that adults would like..."
Wu Chengxu waved his hand: "Don't worry about this, my interests and hobbies may be a little different from yours. Just say what you want to say."
"I thought you were going to say Red Alert or World of Warcraft or something like that," Xu Zhe shook his head slightly. "Anyway, what I want to say is that gameplay design requires insight into the game and logical thinking. As for age or years of experience, they are not really important."
Wu Chengxu: "So, you two have never been involved in game production before, but you have created such an amazing work in your first attempt?"
Xu Zhe: “That’s not the case. I have completed two mobile games by myself before, “Fruit Cutting” and “Ski Adventure”, both of which were launched on Pingguo’s platform, but it was another company.”
Wu Chengxu: "But you said you were only sixteen years old..."
Xu Zhe: “Yes, when I was in middle school, I asked my parents to help me set up a company, and then I made those two games myself. You can search for them on your phone now.”
So Wu Chengxu immediately took out his Pingguo mobile phone and searched for "Fruit Cutting". Although the sales of this game were obviously not as good as "Ski Escape", it also reached more than one million. Looking at the release time of "Fruit Cutting", Wu Chengxu fell into deep thought.
After a long silence, he couldn't help but ask, "You made this kind of game for the first time in junior high school?"
Xu Zhe: “Yes.”
Wu Chengxu looked at the girl next to him again: "What about you?"
Shen Lan: "When he first started making games, it aroused my interest, and then I learned programming from him. Unfortunately, I didn't participate in his first two games because I was busy with competitions."
Wu Chengxu: "Competition?"
Shen Lan: "Yes, it was a domestic informatics competition. I later won a silver medal and signed a score reduction agreement with Jiaotong University. After I was basically free of the pressure of the college entrance examination, I started to make games with him."
The amount of information contained in these words made Wu Chengxu remain silent for a long time.
Silver medal in the competition? Jiaotong University? Add to that the game that has always been regarded as a scourge by parents... Wu Chengxu suddenly realized that he might be able to make big news this time!

Wu Chengxu downloaded "Fruit Cutting" and "Ski Adventure" on his mobile phone on the spot, tried them out, and then couldn't help but exclaimed:
"This is something a junior high school student can do?!"
Xu Zhe just smiled and didn't pick up the other party's topic to brag.
But Shen Lan would praise him: "Except for outsourcing the art materials, he did everything himself, including the game music. Oh, and he also did the music in Ski Escape. The song Faded is also very popular now, with tens of millions of views on foreign video websites."
Wu Chengxu: "I did check that song before I came here. It said that in addition to Lanzhe Technology, there is also a Nordic musician who composed the song, right?"
Shen Lan emphasized: "Yes, but Xu Zhe participated in the composition and wrote all the lyrics."
Wu Chengxu: "Mr. Xu, do you also have talent in music?"
Xu Zhe waved his hand: "Then don't mention it, let's talk about something else."
Wu Chengxu: "Okay, then I'll ask the next question. Mr. Shen has signed a score reduction agreement with top universities like Jiaotong University, so what about you? With such a lucrative income, will you continue your studies? Will making games have any impact on your studies?"
Xu Zhe said as a matter of course: "Of course I will continue to study. I ranked first in the whole grade in the high school entrance examination. Now, since I have been recommended to Jiaotong University, I don’t need to work too hard, but my grades are still okay."
In order to avoid the reporter misunderstanding the meaning of "not bad", Shen Lan helped him add: "He is now in the top class of the top high school in the province, and his test scores are among the best in the grade."
Wu Chengxu: "Wait, you are also from Jiaotong University... and you were recommended by the university?"
The reporter couldn't help but swear.
Xu Zhe and Shen Lan both paused.
Wu Chengxu quickly said, "I'm sorry, I'm just a little surprised. Uh, why did you recommend me?"
Xu Zhe: "I also participated in the informatics competition. If you are a junior high school student and get the first place in the high school group, you can also sign a contract with a famous school directly. But to be recommended for admission, you need some other conditions, such as being able to independently program a game."
Wu Chengxu sat there for a while and suddenly said, "Do you sometimes feel that the people around you are stupid?"
Xu Zhe: "Why do you think so?"
Shen Lan glanced at the boy and said, "I do feel that way sometimes, but Xu Zhe is the only person who won't let me think that way."
Wu Chengxu's eyes lit up, and he asked, holding his glasses, "Can you tell me, are you two related in any other way besides being partners?"
The reporter could see that when the girl looked at Mr. Xu, her expression was very interesting. From time to time, her eyes would reveal a hint of admiration, or even affection.
But Shen Lan shook her head firmly at this time: "We are partners, or partners. If you must use one word to describe the two of us, it is like-minded."
"Oh I got it."
Wu Chengxu said this and lowered his head to add a note in his notebook: "Secret love or don't want to be exposed."
At this time, Xu Zhe explained: "I don't think that the people around me are stupid. Because everyone has their own growth environment and unique values, I don't need to use my own standards to measure others. It's the same when I design game play. I have to find common ground among everyone, instead of thinking that I am very smart, which will lock myself up."
Wu Chengxu raised his head and exclaimed: "Your modesty is really rare. If it were me, I would definitely not be able to do it. With such good academic performance and making so much money, it's normal for you to be so proud. By the way, has your life changed since you made so much money?"
Xu Zhe: "I bought a car for my dad. I may consider buying a house and making some investments. But my daily life hasn't changed much. After all, I have to go to school."
Shen Lan added: "We don't eat out very often, because Xu Zhe's cooking skills are better than many restaurant chefs."
Wu Chengxu: "No way?"
Xu Zhe: "It's not that exaggerated, it's just okay."
Shen Lan: "And he has strong athletic ability. He won the championship in the long-distance race at the school athletic meet when he was in junior high school, and he also won medals in high school."
Xu Zhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "This has nothing to do with the topic of today's interview!"
"No, no, no, they are all related. Our interview can be treated as a casual chat. We can talk about anything..."
Wu Chengxu said this, secretly confirming one thing. That is, this Mr. Shen really favors Mr. Xu. There is a feeling of worship in his words.
At this moment, Xu Zhe noticed the deep meaning in the reporter's eyes and suddenly asked, "Sorry to interrupt, I want to ask, will you let us see the manuscript before you publish it?"
Wu Chengxu: "Mr. Xu, you can rest assured about this. This will be published only after you agree. Before starting today, I agreed with Mr. Shen. This is also our practice."
Xu Zhe then asked, "So what angle do you plan to start with for this interview?"
Wu Chengxu was stunned: "What do you mean?"
Xu Zhe: "I want to understand the intention."
"Purpose..." Wu Chengxu pondered for a moment, then suddenly laughed, "Are you worried that I will be like those unscrupulous reporters, arbitrarily distorting the interviewee's meaning and deliberately making sensational reports? You can rest assured about this. First of all, our magazine's qualifications are here, and the circulation is so large, so we have to consider our reputation."
Xu Zhe nodded.
Then Wu Chengxu continued, "And there's really no need to distort or fabricate anything in this interview. I just need to write about you and the real situation of Lanzhe Technology, and it will be enough to cause a lot of discussion. Everyone knows that games are a scourge in the traditional concept of our country. Countless parents are worried that games will affect their children's studies, but you two are a complete counterexample."
Xu Zhe: "So once your report is published, it will easily cause controversy, right?"
Wu Chengxu smiled and nodded: "Of course I also want to ask for your opinion. Will this kind of debate have an impact on Mr. Xu's life and Lanzhe Technology?"
Xu Zhe turned his head to look at Shen Lan and asked in a low voice: "Are you afraid of becoming famous?"
