Oppa~
"Editor-in-Chief, what do you think?"
"His dancing is okay, but unfortunately he can only dance and can't sing. He doesn't even pass the basics, he has no potential, so let's just throw him away!"
Without a second thought, Bai Shaoyan immediately dumped the video into the trash can.
The editor sent a second video.
A white-haired young man in a suit, holding a microphone shaped like Scepter, sang with a perfect voice and moving lyrics, exuding the aura of a domineering CEO.
"He's so handsome! My brother is so handsome!"
"Waaaaah, brother, please look at me! Just one look, and my whole life will be worth it!"
Bai Shaoyan glanced at the video a few times, and without waiting for the editor to ask, he dragged the video directly to the trash can.
"What's the use of being able to sing? If you can't dance or play basketball, and you still want to become a rising star, that's just wishful thinking!"
As he spoke, Bai Shaoyan glared at the editor who had pushed out the video.
"You've been with me for years, how come you're still so clueless?"
"Editor-in-Chief, I think this man is quite nice!"
"You dare to talk back? This kind of Actor doesn't even deserve to be called good! My idol from twenty years ago could sing and dance much better than him!"
Bai Shaoyan snorted coldly, opened his phone, found a treasured video, and decided to show it to the editor.
"Open your eyes wide and take a good look, this is what a truly capable older brother looks like!"
In the blurry, period-appropriate image, a group of young people are singing and dancing.
Although the image quality is blurry, it's still clear that some of these young people have quite good skills.
"Isn't that Yang Bing, the Billion-Dollar Movie King? What's he doing in this group?"
"It's not just Yang Bing, look at the third one, isn't that Liu Wei, the All-Around Movie King? He's won the All-Around Movie King three times in a row, a well-deserved international movie star. Was he in this group before?"
"I did hear a rumor that Liu Wei and Yang Bing debuted in an idol group for a few years before they became famous, but they could only play supporting roles and be the team leader's Green Leaf."
"They're all so talented, yet they can only play supporting roles. Who is this captain? I've never heard of him before?"
The Editorial Department erupted in uproar, everyone staring at Bai Shaoyan in shock.
The fashion world changes rapidly, and junior editors often don't even recognize their idols from many years ago.
But they were deeply moved.
As expected of the Editor-in-Chief- chief, even his taste in choosing idols is far superior to theirs!
"Look at the idols of yesteryear, and look at the grotesque and unattractive ones of today! Now you know how unprofessional these young idols are, right?"
Now you know why I look down on young people these days, right? They don't understand the importance of versatility, yet they want to make a living off online traffic?
"And young people these days have absolutely no idea what aesthetics are. Without my guidance, they'll never be able to afford a four-dish-and-soup meal in their entire lives!"
Bai Shaoyan basked in the admiration of the crowd, spitting as he spoke, thoroughly enjoying himself.
He only revealed the name of the main character in the video at the very end.
Liao Zisheng.
The leader of the Prince Idol Group, truly deserving of the title "Prince"!
"Liao Zisheng? Editor-in-Chief, is this the Liao Zisheng you're talking about?"
"There's also someone named Liao Zisheng on the list, and this photo looks a bit like the one in the video! Editor-in-Chief, can you tell if this is the same person?"
An editor exclaimed in surprise, as if discovering a new continent, and immediately shared the video on the big screen.
A large, high-definition image appeared prominently on a high-definition screen that covered almost an entire wall.
The image is divided into red and blue, with Lightning Effect cutting the center of the screen. On the left is the familiar Prince Liao Zisheng Bai Shaoyan, while on the right is a face that is both familiar and unfamiliar.
His face has become plump, and his eye sockets are slightly sunken. Although you can still vaguely recognize that he was a handsome young man back then, he is now a middle-aged man in his forties.
For others, there might be hesitation, but for a die-hard fan like Bai Shaoyan, one glance was enough for him to see that the two people in the picture were actually the same person, only the one on the right was older.
"My God, is this really my Prince, Liao Zisheng?"
"He suddenly retired back then, and now he's made a comeback?"
"My brother's sudden retirement back then must have been due to suppression! He must have suffered a lot over the years. Now that I'm Editor-in-Chief, I must do my part to help him become Top Star again!"
Bai Shaoyan was already moved to tears just looking at the screen, before even reading the content.
He entered this industry because of the influence of Liao Zisheng.
Liao Zisheng was called "Prince" by them, and these fans called themselves the Prince Guard."
He was one of the most fanatical among them!
Even after twenty years, his passion has never faded!
As long as I can help my brother, I don't mind working for free!
"Editor-in-Chief, he was so famous back then, why did he suddenly retire? Was some scandal exposed?"
An editor suddenly asked.
Upon hearing this, Bai Shaoyan was extremely excited.
"Impossible! My brother is a paragon of virtue, a top-notch idol. How could he possibly have a scandal?"
"Back then, he must have been unwilling to be exploited by capital, so he was suppressed and sidelined. Otherwise, with his abilities, his achievements would definitely surpass those of everyone else combined! Billion-Dollar Movie King? An all-around film and television king? That's nothing compared to him!"
"You little rascals have no idea how hard he works!"
"I'll show you right now how amazing my brother is!"
Bai Shaoyan said through gritted teeth, glaring fiercely at the editor who had slandered his brother.
Bai Shaoyan admired the beautiful faces on the big screen one last time, completely mesmerized.
However, he soon discovered the shortcomings.
The photo on the left is flawless, showcasing the brother's unparalleled beauty.
However, the photo on the right clearly has some issues.
Although my brother is middle-aged, making him look a bit overweight in the photos is really amateurish, isn't it?
Furthermore, the eyes lacked focus, and the photo was deliberately incomplete, only showing the forehead, with the area above the forehead obscured by special effects.
Even after twenty years, my brother still has an unparalleled appearance. How can you be so careless?
"Young people these days have no idea what a real idol is. Thank goodness the Prince has made a comeback!"
Bai Shaoyan was moved to tears. He gently pressed the play button and watched the video with a sense of reverence.
I love Braised Pork Intestines! The wonderful taste of pork intestines is so satisfying!
Before the scene even appeared, a bloodcurdling howl suddenly echoed throughout the office.
The group, who had just been filled with a sense of pilgrimage, suddenly froze on the spot.
Noise!
Who's so inconsiderate? Going to work is already torture enough, how can someone be making noise here?
[Negative emotions +100]
[Negative emotions +200]
[Negative emotions +300]
Xu Yi, who was treating the film crew to hot pot at a restaurant, suddenly looked up and stared out the window in astonishment.
What happened?
He was eating hotpot and singing when he suddenly captured a huge wave of emotions?
"Boss, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, just a windfall. Everyone, keep eating."
Xu Yi waved his hand and continued eating hotpot and singing, thoroughly enjoying himself.
