The Show Begins

Chapter 111: An undercurrent of crisis

Du Wen came from afar, smiling and stretched out his hand to Lai Yang.

Lai Yang knew that nothing good would come of meeting this guy, but out of politeness, he still shook hands with him.

"Brother, have you been busy these days? I see you don't have any performance information."

"I'm OK. I'm dealing with some small matters. Is there anything you can do for me?" Lai Yang always called him brother. He really didn't like this kind of glib talk.

Du Xi entered the theater, his eyes stayed on Yuan Shengda for half a second, then he pulled out a chair and sat down very comfortably.

"It's nothing serious. I've discussed it with the other label managers and plan to hold a special show on May 14th, Rose Day. I was thinking you could send two people so we can work together."

Lai Yang was a little confused by what he said. He and Li Dian looked at each other, and Li Dian frowned.

“Do you also hold events for thousands of people?”

"It's not us, it's us. Since we have joined forces with more than a dozen labels, we will definitely hold a show for thousands of people, just like last time, at the Westin Concert Hall."

Du Xi smiled after he finished speaking.

From his words, Lai Yang had already learned that the other labels had agreed to unite again. He came to him not because he was short of actors, but because he wanted to help sell tickets through the private traffic of the Boxiao Club.

This is completely imitating yourself again.

If you think about it more deeply, the reason why other labels agreed to this may be so that they can hold shows with thousands of people one by one in the next few months.

Lai Yang took a deep breath and secretly admired Tian Jing's foresight.

This kind of thing that has no technical barriers can indeed be easily copied by others.

"Hey! Don't you have any brains? You used to copy jokes and now you copy patterns. Is that interesting? You are deliberately disgusting people!"

Yuan Sheng cursed with a squint.

Du Xi touched his face with his hand and said with a smile: "Business is like this. Just because you opened a shoe store, can I not open one? You offer discounts, but if I offer discounts, then that's plagiarism? If that's the case, then you are the unreasonable ones."

Yuan Shengda's pretty face was full of anger, and she unconsciously moved closer to Du Xi. Seeing that the situation was not right, Aru quickly stopped her.

"Du Xi, when we were rehearsing, people from the Cultural Bureau came to check our performance qualifications. It was you who did it, right?" Li Dian asked.

"If you insist on accusing me, then I can't do anything about it. Laiyang, I came here today just to ask you a question. Just give me a definite answer as to whether you will participate in this matter or not. No need to say anything else."

Laiyang clenched his back teeth!

If I refuse, I will not only offend Du Xi, but also all my colleagues in the same industry.

They are now tied together for the sake of interests, and of course they will turn against him for the sake of interests. He knows this well.

After suppressing his anger, Lai Yang agreed.

Du Xi smiled and took out his mobile phone to add Lai Yang to their newly created group, and asked him to cooperate with everyone to post a tweet on the official account every week to sell tickets starting tomorrow.

After finishing these things, Du Xi glanced at the bouquet of flowers on the chair, then looked at Yuan Shengda and Alu, and raised the corner of his mouth.

"Oh... She hit me last time she saw me, I thought you two were a couple, hehe~"

Du Xi left, but before leaving, he made Lai Yang feel really disgusted.

Yuan Sheng kicked over the chair he had just sat on with a loud kick, cursing him continuously!

Lai Yang also tightly grasped his phone, looking at the avatars of the heads of different labels in the group, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind...

… …

No one was happy with the meal at Wangjiang Pavilion.

But the scenery here is indeed beautiful. Alu booked an open-air private room, which was quite expensive.

Lai Yang sat on the sofa next to the glass fence and looked into the distance, just in time to see the Bund and the Oriental Pearl Tower.

Last night's rain made the sky exceptionally blue. The clouds were sparse, floating in the air like cotton wool. Ferries and speedboats were sailing on the Huangpu River, and ripples were rolling on the yellow water surface.

Lai Yang thought of the first time Tian Jing came to the theater to watch a performance, he joked with an audience member, saying that he would hold performances on the river in the future, and he could arrange a speedboat to pick up anyone who wanted to watch.

After the performance that night, I ended up living in Tian Jing's house by mistake, and their story began from there...

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

The theater is still there, but the crisis is surging like the yellow river water.

During the meal, Li Dian lowered his head and chewed dully, in a bad mood.

In fact, from the moment his mother passed away, loss seemed to have become his normal state.

Aru sent out red envelopes in the group, but Song Wen and Yun Lu were busy with something and did not come out to receive the envelopes until the dinner was over.

It made Aru very embarrassed.

After dinner, A-ru wanted to take Yuan Shengda to the Bund for a walk and they would not go to the open mic in the evening.

Lai Yang, Li Dian and Qian Ying walked towards the subway entrance. After walking a dozen meters, he turned around and looked at the man standing

Yuan Sheng is loud on the street.

Coincidentally, Aru held her hand at this moment, and she pulled her hand away reflexively, her body trembling.

Pedestrians passed by them, constantly disturbing Lai Yang's vision.

Amid the crowd, Lai Yang vaguely saw Aru's lips move and he said something, then Yuan Shengda's body collapsed and his slender hands also dropped.

But the next second, she suddenly looked towards him!

Lai Yang immediately turned around and chased after Li Dian and Qian Ying...

Lai Yang didn’t know whether they held hands in the end.

But he knew that A-ru was sincere to Yuan Shengda, and he also hoped that his childhood friend could be happy, otherwise there would be no point for her to come to Shanghai.

And he will have to keep a certain distance from Yuan Shengda in the future.

But when Lai Yang thought of this, he felt inexplicably upset.

Li Dian went home to rest halfway on the way, saying he was not feeling well.

Lai Yang and Qian Ying were the only ones left in the theater.

Qianying helped with the "Valentine's Day Performance Consultation" article content, while Laiyang cleaned the theater thoroughly, mopping the wooden floor again and again, wiping the microphone on the stage until it was shiny black, and even standing on a high stool to flick off the dust from the spotlights on the ceiling.

Only when the body is constantly working can the brain stop thinking and he can feel a moment of comfort.

After working until around six in the afternoon, Lai Yang took two glasses of lemonade, handed one to Qianying, and sat next to her, looking at the artistic word "happinessn" on the poster on the computer.

Laiyang fell into a trance...

After a while, he was a little bored and looked through his Moments, and found that Aru had posted a picture.

He held Yuan Shengda's hand, and they both smiled at the camera.

The wind blows Yuan Shengda's long hair up, creating a messy beauty. Behind them is the Huangpu River, and an unknown water bird is also frozen in the upper right corner of the picture...

This picture should have been taken by a passerby, but it is well taken and very artistic.

Lai Yang liked it, but the next moment, WeChat suddenly prompted that the circle of friends had been deleted...

Almost at the same time, Aru reposted it, but it was no different from the previous version.

Laiyang frowned slightly...

What's the meaning
