Chapter 113: Sleeping with you?
Not surprisingly, Xu Kong regained the first place in the first episode after missing four episodes.
And it remains uncontroversial.
The recording of the game was temporarily over, but Xu Kong did not leave Star City immediately.
Wu Youxue asked him to have dinner, not in the name of the program director, but in the other person's personal name.
Xu Kong was a little bit dumbfounded. The place Wu Youxue brought him to was actually the private kitchen he had visited with Su Zhi last night.
Even the private room is next to the one Xu Kong booked yesterday.
……
"Are you still adapting to Fengge?"
Wu Youxue asked with a smile.
"It's not bad, the company is a bit bigger, so it doesn't feel any different."
Xu Kong replied.
Of course, although he hadn't mentioned it to anyone else, it had to be said that Xu Kong still missed the chairman's lounge of Fengqing Entertainment.
However, since he left Fengqing Entertainment, Yu Yaqing has not taken the initiative to contact him again.
Although Song Youyou is good, from time to time, she still thinks of Yu Yaqing's unique foot skills.
"If you don't understand anything later, you can ask me."
"Although I have never been an artist, I should be able to give you some advice."
Wu Youxue took the initiative to express his kindness, and Xu Kong's song on this episode was very useful to him.
At least from this time on, Xu Kong is no longer simply regarded as a so-called investment. When speaking, he is also speaking from the perspective of a friend.
It can be seen that Wu Youxue still feels a little pity in his heart.
If it weren't for Xu Kong's contract being too expensive and Fengge's side having deep pockets, the best result would naturally be to sign Xu Kong to a company under Mango.
The meal was quite enjoyable, and they drank a little wine, but neither of them was drunk.
Wu Youxue taught Xu Kong many invisible rules in the entertainment industry, and also shared many interesting gossips.
Although Xu Kong himself was not unfamiliar with these things, it warmed Xu Kong's heart that Wu Youxue, a top director at Mango, was willing to tell him these things in person.
"When will the filming of our new drama officially start?"
On the way back to the capital, Guo Zihao asked.
"It should be just these two days, what's wrong?"
At present, the protagonists of Fairy Sword have almost been decided, and preparations for location selection and props have been completed. After recording this episode, it should be the official opening ceremony.
It has to be said that since Guo Zihao no longer plays the role of Xu Kong's manager, he has become more and more accustomed to this assistant.
And compared to helping Xu Kong do business docking and receiving announcements, the other party is obviously much more reliable when doing other things.
Works such as the filming of the Fairy Sword and the preparation of props were completed to Xu Kong's satisfaction.
So very simply, he decided to let Guo Zihao continue to be the stage manager of the Fairy Sword crew just like he did in "Want to See You".
After Guo Zihao heard Xu Kong's question, his expression became twisted.
But in the end he said: "I may have something to do these two days and have to take leave. Can I join the team a few days later?"
Xu Kong nodded thoughtfully.
"It's not a big deal."
"But why are you like this? You don't know how to fall in love?"
Guo Zihao is only a few years older than Xu Kong, but this little fat guy has only been solo until now.
Twenty-seven or eighty-year-old, he can be considered an older leftover man, and it seems that he really should find a partner.
Guo Zihao hesitated for a long time, and then said angrily: "You don't have to worry about it, just say whether to approve the fake or not!"
Xu Kong felt a little funny.
But it's a bit strange. Logically speaking, they have only been here for a long time, and Guo Zihao was running around outside most of the time.
"Wait a minute, your girlfriend isn't Feng Ge's artist, is she?"
Xu Kong remembered something and couldn't help but ask.
The main reason was that he thought of Shang Yuxin, and Xu Kong had clearly seen Shang Yuxin's rank.
People like Guo Zihao are nothing more than toys to many female artists in the entertainment industry.
There is no possibility of outplaying the opponent.
Fortunately, Guo Zihao shook his head at this time.
"Not an artist."
"But she is indeed an employee of Feng Ge and the assistant of Manager Zhu Yu."
"I haven't confessed my feelings yet. This time she invited me to dinner"
Xu Kong felt a little relieved after hearing this.
He remembered that Zhu Yu's assistant should be a college student who had just graduated. He had forgotten what he looked like, but he was probably not a particularly beautiful type, otherwise Xu Kong would not have been impressed.
Of course, when we met him before, the clarity and stupidity unique to college students in his eyes probably didn't look fake.
Xu Kong was a little speechless. Since the last time he had a chat with the great director Ding Lixin, he was amazed at Shang Yuxin's methods and at the same time felt that he was about to have PTSD.
Strictly speaking, even in the entertainment industry, although there are a lot of intrigues, there are still only a few who are really as high as Shang Yuxin.
But Shang Yuxin, if you can, don't provoke him.
On the first day after returning to the capital, Xu Kong lay at home for the whole day.
Not to mention, she was not used to this kind of life.
As a top performer, my schedule is always full. I fly several times a day. I shoot commercials in the north in the morning, and then go to the south to participate in performances in the afternoon.
Now that I'm suddenly free, it's certainly refreshing, but it's inevitable that I still feel a little empty.
The preparations for Fairy Sword are basically complete, and all that is left is to attend the opening ceremony.
Zhu Yu's advice to Xu Kong was to push out all the remaining announcements except participating in the subsequent episodes of "Our Song".
Xu Kong could only lament Feng Ge's wealth and buy him back at such a high price. Indeed, as Lin Hong said, he didn't care about whether he could recover the cost in the short term.
On the contrary, some small companies in the industry almost suppress their artists in various ways in this regard, and they are eager to squeeze out all the remaining value before it is worth it.
In comparison, companies of Fengqing Entertainment's size can be considered relatively conscientious.
Xu Kong's boredom didn't last long when Song Youyou came over.
The other party was already familiar with Xu Kong's residence in the capital.
Although Xu Kong never told her the password at home, this did not prevent Song Youyou from frequently carrying out surprise attacks at night.
It's the same this time.
But the difference is that Youyou will wear various tricks every time she comes.
Xu Kong even suspected that the other party was planning to practice most of the plots he had seen.
This time Youyou is wearing a black leather cosplay suit and a white hair wig on her head.
Xu Kong wasn't sure who the other person's cosplay was, mainly because he didn't know most of the anime in this world.
"Don't take it off!"
At the critical moment, Xu Kong was stopped by Song Youyou.
Looking at Xu Kong's confused expression, Song Youyou said:
"If you take it off, you won't feel that way anymore." - "What if you don't take it off"
Before Xu Kong finished speaking, Song Youyou took the initiative to show off.
Xu Kong finally saw the exquisite design of Song Youyou's cosplay suit.
He didn't know about the others, but he was sure that these clothes definitely did not restore the character!
Because the one-piece black silk underneath is actually open, focusing on breathability and convenience.
Even the top is very particular. It seems to be tightly wrapped, but in fact, with a little pull, the "truth is revealed".
The filming of Fairy Sword has not officially started yet, but the latest episode of "Our Song" has been officially aired.
Xu Kong once again won the first place, and soon became a hot search on Weibo.
But this time, Xu Kong's song in this issue is indeed quite popular, but more people's attention is focused on the lyrics.
"Xu Kong seemed to have figured something out after he came back, and his whole state was different."
"I also feel this way. In fact, he wants to express his attitude more in this song, but the ranking is not so important."
"This time of changing companies, it can be seen that Xu Kong is still a big blow. After all, he is still a young man. He was betrayed by Feng Qing. It is normal that he cannot accept it for a while."
"Xu Kong is becoming more and more like a professional singer and musician. This is a good thing. After all, if you keep being a traffic star, you won't be able to go far."
Xu Kong looked at the various so-called professional analyzes on the Internet and began to doubt himself.
Although he disappeared for a while, was the change really that big?
And although Yu Yaqing's sale of his contract was indeed unplanned, Xu Kong was not affected that much.
After all, such business practices have long been common in the entertainment industry.
Especially for some traffic idol contracts, it is very normal for them to change hands two or three times at a time.
It can only be said that today’s netizens are indeed too imaginative.
"This is a good thing. It won't have much negative impact on you, and it can also weaken your label as a traffic star in front of the public."
Zhu Yu pushed up her glasses and analyzed Xu Kong.
What is different from Fengqing Entertainment is that after Xu Kong came to Fengge, although there will still be a public relations team to help, most of the time, he will not spend such a large budget and time to control and evaluate the trolls as before. Something.
After explaining Xu Kong's follow-up plans again, Zhu Yu looked at the watch on her wrist.
"It's time for lunch, do you want to join me?"
Xu Kong was stunned for a moment, but still nodded.
"Wait for me there for a while. I'll go to the staff canteen to get food."
“Is there anything you want to eat or what you don’t want to eat?”
Xu Kong shook his head and said that he could eat the same thing as the other person.
Looking at Zhu Yu's leaving figure, although it was not the first time, he was still not used to the other party's rather strict time plan.
Often in the middle of a conversation, it's either time for dinner or it's time to get off work.
Even the time to water the potted plants in the office is clearly remembered.
The impression left on Xu Kong in peacetime is very consistent. Zhu Yu even eats in such an orderly manner.
Before eating, the dishes such as tomatoes, eggs, and shredded pork with green peppers are even sorted into categories, and they are arranged very carefully before eating.
What a strange sense of ritual this is.
"Sister Yu, do you have obsessive-compulsive disorder?"
Xu Kong still couldn't hold back and asked.
After getting along with Zhu Yu for more than a month, the two gradually became familiar with each other.
He began to speak more casually.
But what surprised Xu Kong was that Zhu Yu shook his head.
"I also thought I might have obsessive-compulsive disorder."
“But later I found out it wasn’t.”
"Or maybe it's not particularly serious."
"Don't you think it would be more delicious if you separate each dish, put a little of each dish, and eat it in one bite?"
Zhu Yu said and demonstrated before taking a bite of the meal, then blinked and looked at Xu Kong.
With doubts, Xu Kong tried it according to the other party's method.
It turned out to be really good. In fact, there was no difference at all from eating it normally.
After lunch, Zhu Yu actually took out a small orange blanket from a cabinet in his office.
Then, as if by magic, a portable deck chair was moved from the corner.
After taking off her coat and even putting on slippers she didn't know where she came from, Zhu Yu remembered that Xu Kong was still here.
I asked a little embarrassedly: "I'm going to take a nap, do you want to come with me?"
But just after she finished speaking, she realized that she had said the wrong thing and changed her words:
"No."
"I mean, there is a sofa there. If you are too lazy to go back to your studio upstairs, you can rest here."
Xu Kong hesitated for two seconds, then said: "Then let's go together"
As if she sensed something was wrong in the atmosphere, after handing Xu Kong another blanket, Zhu Yu quickly returned to her folding chair and lay down.
I don't know if the environment in Zhu Yu's office was more suitable for resting, or if it was because of the blanket the other party gave him, that Xu Kong slept particularly comfortably.
It wasn't until Zhu Yu woke him up that Xu Kong got up in a daze.
Stretching, he subconsciously asked: "What time is it?"
Zhu Yu resumed her working mode at this time, looked at the time and replied: "Two o'clock in the afternoon."
"You have slept for more than two hours"
Xu Kong was also a little embarrassed.
"The main reason is that sister Yu, your sofa is so comfortable."
Zhu Yu replied with a smile: "Then you can come to my place when you are tired."
Xu Kong seemed a little surprised after hearing what the other party said.
"Can I?"
"Sleeping with you?"
Xu Kong had just finished speaking, almost subconsciously, when Zhu Yu took half a step back and made a gesture of crossing her hands, knowing how to answer.
"Dah!"
Xu Kong suddenly remembered that Zhu Yu's daughter Minmin had told him before that when his mother was nervous, she would subconsciously do some weird behaviors.
I didn't understand what it meant at the time, but now I have seen it with my own eyes.
"Sister Yu, what I actually mean is, can I come over during your nap time?"
However, Xu Kong didn't expose it, but smiled and explained.
These words obviously made Zhu Yu feel relieved.
"Other times, too, but I'm not in the office all day."
"I'll talk to the assistant later and ask her to open the door for you while I'm away."
