Chapter 27 I Will Not Keep This Glory to Myself
"The song you sang last night...could we use it as the ending theme for our show?"
"A song...what song? 'Attitude Towards Life'? Of course!"
Hearing Chen Hong's smiling words, Xu An understood something, but he still pretended to be stupid.
"What 'Attitude Towards Life'?! Is that song even suitable for our show?!"
Seeing Xu's foolishness, Chen Hong was so angry she wanted to bite him.
Can the song "Attitude Towards Life" be used as the ending theme for a TV program?
Is it appropriate for someone to watch the show and then say to them, "I took pictures of the house on fire"?
"It's the song you sang outside alone last night!"
Seeing that Xu An wasn't falling for her tricks, Chen Hong had no choice but to be blunt.
"Director, how did you know I sang last night? You were actually spying on me!"
"As expected, ordinary people have no human rights when making TV shows!"
Chen Hong felt a headache coming on when Xu An didn't give a direct answer but instead started talking about random things.
She was too lazy to argue with Xu An and directly unleashed her ultimate move.
"Twenty thousand!"
"The production team only needs the license, not a buyout!"
"Director, what are you saying! I'm part of the production team, don't be so formal with all this talk about 20,000!"
Do I need to provide my bank card number?
Xu An grasped Chen Hong's hand with lightning speed, his eyes filled with unwavering determination.
"...and then it'll be paid off along with the film's salary!"
Seeing Xu An's "I won't act until I see results" attitude, Chen Hong said somewhat irritably.
"By the way, since I'm doing this for two people, you can sing this song too!"
"Tell me, how much more money do you want?"
"No need to add more. It's an honor that Director Chen let me sing. How could I possibly push my luck!"
Xu Anle said with a chuckle.
Upon hearing this, Chen Hong was taken aback, and then gave Xu An a meaningful look.
She originally thought Xu An was a greedy person, but now it seems he knows when to back down!
Or does he actually think I'm a pretty good director?
Actually, thinking about it, it's normal for an ordinary person like him to value money.
Did I give you too little just now?
Xu An didn't want money, but Chen Hong suddenly felt a little ashamed.
"Ahem, if your recording goes well, I'll give you a raise."
"Alright, let's go record the song now!"
Unaware that she had actually been coughed twice by Chen Hong at the KTV.
Xu An's eyes lit up, but then he looked troubled.
"What's wrong? Do you want more money now?"
A hint of disappointment flashed in Chen Hong's eyes, just as she heard Xu An say with a troubled expression:
"Director, it's not nine o'clock yet. It's not time to start work."
"Can I go record after nine o'clock?"
Chen Hong laughed in exasperation. She thought you were greedy and insatiable, but it turns out you're just a lazy bum who's waiting to die, huh?
Xu An was unaware of Chen Hong's thoughts; his attention was entirely focused on his rapidly increasing roll-off value.

Do you want him to work outside of working hours?
impossible!
Chen Hong was afraid that if she stayed any longer, Xu An would make her sick, so she glared at him fiercely, turned around and left, leaving only one sentence behind.
"Don't forget the publicity work I assigned you, and also the editing team. Take a look when you have time and offer suggestions; after all, you're part of the production team!"
Upon hearing this, Xu An sensed that something was amiss.
Recording songs...promotion...editing, how come I suddenly have so much work?
Wasn't I here to intern for the show?
Why does it feel like the entire future of this show is on their shoulders?
No, I can't keep this glory to myself.
I have to share this with my good buddies on the show!
......
In the control room, everyone looked at Xu An carrying a huge pile of milk tea with unexpected expressions on their faces.
"Professor Xu An, what brings you here?"
Xu An looked at the staff member who had spoken and immediately laughed.
Isn't this the female host who interviewed him and Jiang Zhaoyue before?
He said with a smile, "As a member of the production team, I've come to show my appreciation for everyone's hard work in editing and filming!"
Is this what you buy as a gesture of condolence?
Everyone looked at the snowman icon on the milk tea packaging with somewhat strange expressions.
"Ahem, this is all we have in town, so please make do with this."
"Anyway, I'm not in Shanghai right now."
Despite the strange looks from the people in the control room, Xu An remained completely calm.
Seeing Xu An's calm demeanor, everyone realized they had been overthinking things.
That's true. In this remote and impoverished place, it's good enough to have Xue Wang to drink. Why ask for so much more?
"Thank you, Professor Xu An!"
"By the way, teacher, you can just call me Xiaowei. My name is Yanwei."
The host, Yan Wei, thanked Xu An generously, then naturally took a cup, inserted a straw, and began to drink.
Upon seeing her take a cup of milk tea, everyone stood up, thanked Xu An, and each took a cup.
However, unlike Yan Wei, they didn't start drinking right away. Instead, they put it aside and continued with their work.
Seeing this, Xu An asked Yan Wei with some curiosity, "What do you do on the show? Are you in charge of on-site interviews?"
"He seems to have quite a bit of authority!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Wei's face showed a strange expression, and then she whispered:
"Professor Xu An, our positions are similar."
"Are you also in charge of public relations?"
Xu An's eyes lit up.
"No, I'm also here for an internship. I'm also a college student who hasn't found a job yet."
Yan Wei said somewhat shyly.
Upon hearing this, Xu An looked at her with a hint of respect.
Interns, however, are able to take on relatively important interviewing work.
This person is probably here to gain prestige, not the kind of disposable item used to take the blame when something goes wrong.
"We need to build a good relationship," Xu Anle said, handing her another cup with a cheerful smile.
"Here, you've worked so hard, have another drink."
Yan Wei looked at the extra cup of milk tea in her hand, feeling a little strange.
This was the first time she had ever received a gift from a boy—a snow-themed item, not a necklace, watch, or bag. It felt a little strange.
The assistant director, who had walked over at some point, saw Xu An hand Yan Wei a cup of milk tea, which Yan Wei accepted, and his eyes immediately widened in amazement.
Yan Wei is Director Chen's niece, and she is also very beautiful, no less than the stars in the entertainment industry. When she first joined the program team, some staff members who wanted to improve their skills gave her mobile phones and jewelry, but Yan Wei politely refused them all.
You gave me a free milk tea, and now you're giving me another one?
The key point is that Yan Wei actually accepted the call?
The assistant director glanced at Xu An's face.
Yeah, that's not surprising.
The assistant director was still marveling to himself when Xu An's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he approached him with a smile.
"Director Li, long time no see! Here, have some milk tea."
When assistant director Li Lin saw the smile on Xu An's face, he nodded happily.
When the others saw the assistant director drinking milk tea, they exchanged glances, put down their work, and started drinking milk tea as well.

"Have you exported all the footage? The initial editing is done..."
Chen Hong walked into the control room and was about to ask about the progress when she saw the relaxed scene in front of her and everything went black.
Who ordered milk tea knowing that the production team had limited time and a heavy workload?
Chen Hong quickly identified her target.
"Xu An! Get out of here! And you're not allowed back into the control room!"
