Study System: I'm a 38-Year-Old Student-Chapter 272 - 186: The Art of Negotiation

We’re going to compete!!

After Lin Xiamo and the Red Rose Band went viral online, they received many work invitations, mostly from music festivals and bars.

However, one of them was a rather significant work invitation.

That was from the "Voice of Hua Country" program team, a very well-known music competition show in the country.

The first two seasons were hugely successful, with high ratings and lots of discussions.

This year is the third season.

A few days ago, Hu Tingting received an invitation from the program team to participate in the recording, which was no problem for Zhu Xinyue and Fang Di.

But for Lin Xiamo, it posed a rather big issue.

One is that recording the show requires taking time off, and the other is her father’s attitude.

The videos of Lin Xiamo singing in bars had gone viral before, and Director Lin was furious.

If she went on a variety show again, there’s no telling how her dad would react.

So Lin Xiamo had been hesitating for the past couple of days, and if she didn’t go, the band naturally couldn’t participate in the recording.

After all, she is the lead singer of Red Rose Band, the soul of the band.

Now, she finally made up her mind!

To advance further in her singing career, participating in "Voice of Hua Country" is a very good choice.

This show has high ratings and a lot of attention, the first two seasons were hugely popular, and the participating singers have gained a significant following.

At the moment, although Red Rose Band has some online fame, they’re seen by many as just an "internet-famous band".

Appearing on "Voice of Hua Country" could not only increase the band’s fame but also diminish the "internet-famous band" label, allowing more people to see the true strength of Red Rose Band!

Carrying fruits and packed meals from a restaurant, Shen Qiushan and Lin Xiamo arrived at the hospital ward.

At this time, Wang Yunpeng’s parents had already arrived, bringing a lot of food and fruits.

Shen Yixiao also got to enjoy it, eating an apple while chatting with Wang Yunpeng’s dad.

Shen Qiushan knew both of them, and previously, when they met, their conversations were on an equal footing.

But today, Shen Qiushan clearly felt that Wang Yunpeng’s parents were much more polite to him.

"Old Shen, you’re really something now!"

"A big writer, I heard you made tens of millions just from writing books, that’s amazing!"

Wang Yunpeng’s dad exclaimed with a big smile.

"I haven’t earned that much, those are just rumors online."

Shen Qiushan humbly waved his hand, swept his gaze across the ward, and didn’t see his "daughter-in-law" Lin Yufei.

"Where’s Yufei?"

Shen Qiushan looked at his daughter Shen Yanran, who was sitting on a companion bed playing with her phone.

"She and Xiaoyi went back to school."

Although Lin Yufei and Kong Xiaoyi weren’t injured, they had been busy from last night until today, exhausting the two girls.

Especially Lin Yufei, as she also took Shen Yixiao to watch the flag-raising ceremony early in the morning and hardly got any sleep.

"Dad, Yufei and Xiaoyi invited me to go shopping tomorrow, is that okay?"

Shen Yanran asked expectantly.

After spending most of the day together, she had become quite familiar with Lin Yufei and Kong Xiaoyi, getting along well with both. With more time, they could definitely become close friends.

"Hmm, go ahead!" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Shen Qiushan nodded, knowing it was Shen Yanran’s first time in Beijing, of course, she’d want to explore and have fun.

"But today you need to spend some more time with your brother in the hospital."

"Later, your second aunt and I have to attend a gathering."

Shen Qiushan added another sentence.

"Oh, okay!"

Shen Yanran agreed and then slyly glanced at Shen Yixiao, who was munching on an apple.

After Lin Yufei and Kong Xiaoyi left, the siblings engaged in some banter.

Around five o’clock.

Shen Qiushan and Lin Xiamo took a taxi to Dragon Cloud Studio.

Due to peak traffic time, a journey that normally takes about 40 minutes stretched to over an hour.

When they arrived, they were only five minutes away from the scheduled time.

Dragon Cloud Studio is a private restaurant hidden in a narrow alleyway, with very tasteful decor.

A beautiful hostess led Shen Qiushan and Lin Xiamo into an elegantly decorated private room.

This private room had both a tea area and a dining area.

At this moment, a man and woman were seated by the tea table.

The man appeared to be around 50, slightly overweight, with sparse hair but sharp eyes.

The woman had shoulder-length hair, delicate features, wearing a white office suit, her legs wrapped in thin, flesh-colored stockings.

Seeing Shen Qiushan and Lin Xiamo enter the room, both stood up.

"Hello, Teacher Shen."

"I’m Qiao Meng, from the phone call."

"Hello, President Qiao."

"Teacher Shen, this is President Ma from Pentium Film and Television."

After greetings, Qiao Meng gestured to the middle-aged man with sparse hair.

"Ma Weiguo."

"I’ve heard so much about you, Teacher Shen."

As the president of Pentium Film and Television, Ma Weiguo showed no airs, warmly stepping forward to shake Shen Qiushan’s hand with a big smile.

"President Ma, you’re too kind."

"You’re the truly famous one!"

Shen Qiushan politely exchanged pleasantries, although he didn’t know about Ma Weiguo.

In fact, Ma Weiguo is indeed very influential in the film and television industry, with Pentium Film and Television being a leading company in the sector.

And Ma Weiguo being the president of Pentium Film and Television, it’s not an exaggeration to call him a big name in the industry.

Under normal circumstances,

Ma Weiguo wouldn’t personally attend small projects.

But today was different.

The film rights for the "Three-Body Civilization" project involve a multi-billion-dollar deal.
