He wasn’t sure whether that was a compliment or a criticism.

“Didn’t you notice Xu Jianian’s eagerness towards you?” Su Yang frowned. “As a man, I find his behavior inappropriate. His gaze at you was aggressive, even scrutinizing, like he was assessing merchandise.”

“Oh, you mean he’s overly enthusiastic towards me?” Si Fuqing touched her chin thoughtfully. “I thought of him as just a handyman for slaughtering geese. I didn’t pay much attention, but now that you mention it, I’ll be more cautious.”

“Don’t worry, I’m not interested in him. Little Shang (Shang Lu) and San’er (Feng San) are much better looking than him. I don’t understand how he could be a top celebrity like you. If we go back twenty years in the entertainment industry, he would have been just another face in the crowd.”

Twenty years ago, the Great Xia entertainment industry was flourishing with diverse styles. Success depended on individual talent rather than the backing of powerful companies.

Su Yang: ‘

He had overestimated Xu Jianian’s status.

After a moment, Su Yang spoke, “Sister, the night you were drunk, it was your boss who picked you up. His leg, he—”

“That damned liar!” Si Fuqing broke the pancake in her hand. “Hmph, considering he’s good-looking, I’ll let it slide this time.”

Su Yang: ‘

Resigning himself, he chose to chat with Yuan Heping instead.

Yuan Heping genuinely enjoyed Su Yang’s music and was keen on nurturing younger talents.

The two had a pleasant conversation.

[Su Yang looks utterly defeated. What did he go through?]

[Si Fuqing is truly impressive. Other female stars would cling to Su Yang, but she just wants to shoo him away.] [Si Fuqing: I only have eyes for prey, don’t disturb my meal.] [Career-oriented female star, love it!]

In the broadcast van, the director, watching the continuously rising engagement in the live feed, was surprised to find that Si Fuqing’s discussion rate was matching, even starting to surpass, Su Yang’s.

Su Yang was a top-tier celebrity, after all.

She can do anything. Which other female star would dare catch a goose or climb a mountain without panting?”

Director: ‘

He really wondered if Si Fuqing had some special training.

“She knows Su Yang?” The director was curious. “How come I never heard about it before?”

Su Yang’s social circle was very simple, with little interaction within the industry.

Si Fuqing was the first person he’d seen publicly acknowledge knowing him.

“More than just knowing,” the assistant director whispered. “The reason why I could invite Mr. Su Yang was because I was lucky to attend Miss Si’s celebration party. Don’t let Su Yang’s cold exterior fool you; he’s like a little brother in front of her.”

“Wow, I was shocked; my hair almost fell out. And let me tell you, the internet users are right. Su Yang was the drummer that day!” The director was so shocked he dropped his thermos.

“Ouch!”

“Oops!” The director suddenly realized, “Bringing in Su Yang for the first episode sets a high bar. The guests for the next episode might not measure up.”

He remembered the next episode would feature several idol celebrities, including one with the surname Meng, recommended by a director he knew.

“What’s the issue?” The assistant director was unconcerned. “Isn’t Miss Si enough?”

The director, looking at a barrage of comments cheering for “wife to catch a goose,” fell silent again.

He lit a cigarette, “You’re right, Miss Si is indeed impressive. But her resources in the entertainment industry are too limited. I can’t stand it. Fortunately, my old friend has a script. Ask Miss Si if she’s available for an audition.”

“What script?” The assistant director asked. “Can it be aired on satellite? If not, it won’t impress.”

He knew the director had significant influence at Da Xia TV.

“A Xianxia drama, not for satellite,” the director said leisurely. “But with Tang

Haiqiu’s golden touch, it’s bound to be a hit, the next big Xianxia drama.”

“Many are eyeing this project, including top actresses from Shengxing Entertainment. The competition is fierce. Although Tang Haiqiu and I are friends, I can’t influence his casting choices. I can only offer an audition opportunity, and it’s up to her to seize it.”

Tang Haiqiu, the leading figure in Great Xia’s Xianxia genre.

His drama “Sword Immortal” from ten years ago was a sensation across the Great Xia Empire and still remained popular even till today.

The leads and supporting roles in “Sword Immortal” all rose to fame overnight..
