Chapter 81

Du Yuping

In the last few days of the Chinese New Year, the mobile phones of the three of them never stopped ringing as people kept calling for New Year's greetings, and even more people sent WeChat messages and so on.

On the third day of the new year, Cheng Mengjiao with her group of friends also came to pay a New Year's visit to Chu Mei Bo.

Chu Mei Bo's New Year was very pleasant. Although, in order to maintain her figure, she couldn't eat and drink delicious food too greedily, at least Shen Huai didn't give her too much homework, which was just enough to appease Chu Mei Bo's grumpy mood.

On the sixth day of the new year, school started. After all, they were in their third year of senior high school, so their holidays were shortened a lot.

In order to prepare for the college entrance examination and also for the audition for "Red Actor", coupled with the recording of Chu Mei Bo's "Travel with History", Shen Huai didn't schedule any other work for her. Except for the recording, Chu Mei Bo had to stay and study obediently at school.

In contrast, Ye Cang was busy.

As a newly famous star, Ye Cang had a rare ten-day vacation, but it came with a suffocating work schedule after New Year.

Although he was a singer, Ye Cang didn't only need to write songs and sing them. In the gap between the songs, he still needed to have enough exposure rate to ensure that the audience wouldn't forget him, as well as various business activities.

Originally, Shen Huai wanted to pick up a relatively relaxed variety show for him, but thinking of Ye Cang's character, if he wasn't there, the new assistant would be overwhelmed. Instead of letting him go out to offend people, it was better to let him keep up a slight mystery.

That said, there was still some scheduled work that needed to be attended to.

For example, returning Zhang Li the favour.

Zhang Li was the producer of "Star of Tomorrow". After the success of "Star of Tomorrow", she gained a firm foothold. Because she got along well with Shen Huai, she returned the favor and provided him with a lot of opportunities, such as recommending Chu Mei Bo for "Travel with History".

Shen Huai was also willing to have a good relationship with Zhang Li. After all, for agents, contacts are established step by step. In addition, Ye Cang wanted to help promote newcomers. For today's newcomers, there were very few who could directly take part in movies, so it was not a bad thing to send them to the talent show for a round of training.

And it so happened that Zhang Li specialized in this.

Now that Zhang Li was already preparing for the second season of "Star of Tomorrow", Shen Huai had the intention to give Xue Chengge a try.

However, Zhang Li came to meet Shen Huai not because of the second season of "Star of Tomorrow", but because of a new program – an idol group talent show.

The entertainment circle was always in rigid demand for idol groups. In Korea and Japan, the idol market had already formed a complete and mature industrial system, but in China, it was still a blank industry.

Zhang Li became acutely aware of this two years ago. For any industry, the first person to try out something new would always get the biggest piece of the cake. The so-called golden period was just at the beginning. When the limelight was over, most people could barely make ends meet.

Zhang Li was an ambitious person. She quit her job in the first place partly because she wanted to partake in this.

The success of "Star of Tomorrow" gave her a lot of confidence. She watched Ye Cang develop from an unknown artist to a popular star. She even strongly predicted that Ye Cang would continue to be popular for a long time.
