The Show Begins

Chapter 99: A long-awaited victory

Views:

When taking photos with actors, many audiences will make some intimate gestures. It is normal to link arms or put your arm around shoulders.

But Tian Jing might not be used to it. Lai Yang clearly felt her body tremble, and then she looked up at him in surprise.

Snap~

After taking this picture, Yu Bo moved the phone away from in front of him and looked at the hand.

Li Dian came over to say hello, and Lai Yang also took the opportunity to extend his hand back. It was as if nothing had happened, except that a few blushes appeared on Tian Jing's cheeks.

Everyone in the club who knew Tian Jing came to say hello, and Yunlu and Yuan Shengda took her to take photos with two crosstalk masters.

The girls were indeed more relaxed when they were together. They gathered around the two teachers and took selfies. Tian Jing even made a scissors gesture and smiled youthfully and beautifully.

The two teachers were a little embarrassed. They shrugged their shoulders like Tang Seng, blushed, smiled in the middle, and made a scissors hand gesture.

"Jingjing, it's late and the meeting is still to come."

Yu Bo glanced at the watch on his wrist, shouted to Tian Jing, then moved his gaze to Lai Yang beside him.

"I'm sorry, we're really in a hurry this time. We had to leave fifteen minutes ago. I thought I'd at least say hello to you after the show, so now... I really have to leave first."

"Oh~ It's okay. What kind of business does Mr. Yu do? Do you have cooperation with Yun Bin?"

"My family is engaged in the photovoltaic industry, and we are currently cooperating with Yunbin."

Laiyang let out a long "Oh", "Photovoltaic."

Selling batteries

Lai Yang murmured in his heart, of course he would not ask this question directly, as it would make him look very uneducated.

After taking the group photo, Tian Jing came over with everyone, waved her hand and said, "I have to go first. Everyone performed very well. I wish the Boxiao Club will get better and better... Laiyang, I didn't expect you to fill the venue. All in all, this is a big step forward. Thumbs up to you."

Tianjing gave a thumbs up and smiled.

Just for this sentence, Lai Yang felt that this performance was worth it.

"How long will you be back this time?" Seeing Tian Jing turning around to leave, Lai Yang suddenly called her.

"When you come back, stay for one day, the day after tomorrow morning."

"Then we will have a celebration party tomorrow night. Do you want to join us? Let's have dinner together?"

Yuan Shengda and Li Dian looked at each other and asked, "Will there be a celebration banquet tomorrow night?"

Tian Jing thought for a few seconds, then curled her lips and smiled: "Okay, but I may not be able to come over until after eight o'clock in the evening, is that okay?"

"Okay, I'll send you the location once I confirm the hotel."

Lai Yang's mood had just improved when Yu Bo, who was standing beside him, suddenly straightened up.

"Then let's come over around eight o'clock tomorrow night. I also have something I want to talk to you about."

Lai Yang looked at him for a few seconds, then smiled and said okay.

After he and Tian Jing left, Yuan Sheng pushed Lai Yang's shoulder and shouted, "Okay, Lai Diaodui, you actually learned to endure it? I thought you would just tell him to get out?"

Lai Yang didn't say anything. He bent down, picked up some scraps of paper thrown by the audience at his feet, and held them tightly in his hands.

Lai Yang was of course angry, but he was not as irritable as before, as that would make him seem very immature.

Especially when facing Yu Bo, who is much better than most people, I don’t want to get angry in front of him, as that is a sign of incompetence.

But what Laiyang was quite curious about was what he wanted to talk to him about

Is it about tranquility

Backstage at the performance, when everyone was removing their makeup and getting ready, Du Xi wandered over to Lai Yang, stretched out her hand and smiled.

"Laiyang, this cooperation is great. We will cooperate again if we have the chance in the future."

Looking at Du Xi's smiling face, Lai Yang did not shake hands with him, but said coldly, "Let's wait for the opportunity later."

Du Xi snorted and retracted his hand, touched his shirt, and left with a strange smile.

After seeing off the two crosstalk teachers, everyone went out for a drink in the evening. After everyone went back home feeling dizzy, Li Dian and Lai Yang came to the theater and carefully calculated the profit of the performance.

The total box office was more than 250,000 yuan, and after deducting the costs of venue, actors, materials, publicity, etc., the net profit was more than 97,000 yuan.

Looking at the long list of amounts on the ticket sales backstage, Lai Yang and Li Dian smiled at each other. Then Lai Yang leaned back in a chair in a comfortable posture, lit a cigarette, and took a long puff.

"If we give Auntie 50,000, we'll make more than 40,000 this time. How do you feel?"

Li Dian took off his glasses and wiped his face heavily with his hands: "I feel like a ball of air has been exhaled from my chest."

Lai Yang flicked the ash off his cigarette. He understood what Li Dian meant by feeling proud.

Several years of failure made him extremely depressed and discouraged. There were even several times when Lai Yang thought about changing his career.

This success brought not only money, but more importantly, courage and hope for the future.

“The public account has gained nearly 3,000 followers since the promotion, and many people have sent messages in the background asking how to become

A talk show host.

Li Dian looked at his phone and said, "Laiyang, this is a bigger gain."

Lai Yang nodded: "Then let's create a group, let them all participate in the open mic, and then screen out fresh blood."

After finishing speaking, Li Dian lowered his head and operated on his mobile phone. Lai Yang took the last puff of his cigarette and put it out.

"There's one more thing... Before the performance, I made a bet in my mind that if Tian Jing came tonight, I would officially pursue her in the future, so... I want to hear your opinion."

Li Dian raised his head slowly: "In the future?"

"… "

Lai Yang's eyes suddenly darkened, and he looked at Li Dian with a look of disdain, "I noticed that you are usually honest, but you are very lustful in your heart!"

Li Dian put his phone down expressionlessly and took a deep breath: "Didn't you say you were pursuing me before? Is it different from this time?"

"It's different. I just talked big before, but this time I plan to do it for real."

"Bad talk? Are you serious?" Li Dian narrowed his eyes again, his expression was intriguing.

After Lai Yang looked at him, he stood up, took his phone and prepared to leave, but Li Dian suddenly said.

"I still say the same thing as before. You really can come if you want, but don't rush to confess. Confession is a battle song after victory, not a clarion call to charge. You have to first determine how she feels about you, whether your liking for her is just a momentary impulse, or whether you really want to spend your whole life with her."

Li Dian looked up at him, paused and continued: "Laiyang, you and Gu Qian are not bad at class concepts, but the conflict is so big. When you and Tian Jing are really together, your shortcomings will be infinitely magnified. What will you do then? And..."

Lai Yang had already sat down automatically and was looking at Military Advisor Li seriously.

"Besides, you haven't figured out the strength of your opponent. Why is Little Turtle in Chengdu with President Tian? What are they cooperating on? How does President Tian feel about him? You need to understand all of this before you proceed to the next step."

Lai Yang lit another cigarette and frowned.

Li Dian patted his shoulder and said, "But don't be discouraged. I think you are much more confident than before, which is a good thing. You have proved yourself in front of thousands of people this time. I believe that President Tian can also see your changes."

"Well... what do you think my first step should be?"

"Didn't Little Turtle say he wanted to talk to you about something at the celebration party tomorrow? I think it has something to do with President Tian. Let's see what he does first."

Lai Yang took a long puff of smoke, his eyes full of thoughts. At this moment, a text message came from a familiar yet unfamiliar phone number...
