Su Yu received a WeChat message from A Ru.
He asked the shop assistant to pack it up and walked towards the company while eating.
The two young girls at the front desk were still as cute as ever, and they praised Su Yu without reservation when they saw him.
Su Yu entered the elevator amidst the enthusiastic and admiring gazes of the two girls.
He arrived at the composition department.
He walked straight to the reception area.
Zhang Li also noticed Su Yu, but he didn't know that Su Yu was the Ting Yu he was looking for.
In his mind, Ting Yu was at least around Chen Shuhao's age.
Thirty-something, or even forty.
After all, writing songs requires a lot of life experience. Without enough experience, the songs wouldn't have that certain flavor.
He had heard every song by Ting Yu, and even listened to them on repeat for a long time.
Sometimes, he could even gain some insights from the lyrics.
"A Ru, where is the person you mentioned?"
Su Yu asked A Ru, who was confused, after walking over.
"Teacher Ting Yu, this is Director Zhang Li. He's here to invite you to write a song. Zhao Zong originally wanted to refuse, but seeing that you've worked together once, he let you come and talk."
A Ru quickly got up and introduced them.
Then, she said to Zhang Li, "Director Zhang, this is Teacher Ting Yu. You two can talk at length. I won't disturb you."
After speaking, she glanced deeply at Su Yu, a hint of brilliance flashing in her eyes.
She had watched this man grow from a newcomer to where he was today, so she was a witness to his legend.
Before, she had been wondering why Zhao Zong was so invested in a newcomer. Now, she finally knew, because Su Yu was worth it.
Perhaps because she was lost in thought, she stared for a moment.
"What's wrong?" Su Yu touched his face.
"N-nothing, you guys talk slowly, I'll be going now." A Ru came back to her senses, her cheeks blushing, and left in a hurry.
Su Yu shook his head when he saw this.
This girl, who usually seemed so efficient, why was she so strange today?
Unable to figure it out, he stopped thinking about it and looked at the bewildered Zhang Li beside him.
"Director Zhang."
Su Yu extended his hand.
"Ting... Teacher Ting Yu, hello."
Zhang Li finally came back to his senses and quickly extended his hand.
This was Ting Yu?
This was the legendary Ting Yu?
Why was he so young?
Zhang Li had been so caught up in his film that he had poured all his energy into it.
Although Su Yu's identity as Lin Chaoyang's son-in-law had already gone viral, he was too busy with his film to pay attention to anything else.
Therefore, he was only surprised by Su Yu's age.
"Director Zhang, why did you travel all the way from Kyoto to Shuangqing City? What kind of song are you looking to commission?"
Su Yu sat down next to him and got straight to the point.
"Oh, I'm here mainly to ask Teacher Ting Yu to write a theme song for my film."
"A theme song?"
"That's right. This is a synopsis of the film. Please take a look."
Zhang Li took out a stack of documents and handed them to Su Yu.
Su Yu took them.
He glanced at the cover.
"The Road to Finding."
It was about a father who, while trying to collect wages owed by a contractor, got into an argument. During a brawl, he accidentally beat the contractor into a vegetative state and was subsequently imprisoned.
His wife and son, to avoid being looked down upon, left their original home and moved to another city.
After his release from prison, the father went through great hardship, searching everywhere, and finally found his wife and son.
However, his son, now an adult, avoided him because of his prison record.
After some events occurred.
The son gradually accepted his father.
The ending, as usual, was a happy one.
The story was decent overall, with few highlights, but because the ending was happy, it wasn't too tear-jerking.
"Director Zhang, why doesn't your film have a tragic ending?"
Su Yu asked curiously after reading the script.
"Heh, the original script was a tragedy, but our production team felt it was too heartbreaking, so we changed the ending."
Zhang Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said.
"A pity..."
Su Yu shook his head.
The theme was good, but changing it to a happy ending made it too common.
It couldn't be called a failed work, but it lacked the core content to become a blockbuster.
"Cough cough... Teacher Ting Yu, is the theme song easy to produce? How long will it take?"
Zhang Li was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer. He looked at Su Yu and asked.
"I must say, you have really good luck."
Su Yu didn't dwell on the plot anymore. After all, he wasn't the one filming the entire movie. The more he said, the less grateful others would be, and they might even be unhappy.
However, Zhang Li's luck was indeed good.
His previous film happened to coincide with Su Yu having a song called "Later," and now, not long ago, he had drawn a song called "Father."
The themes of both songs matched perfectly.
Even Su Yu was a little surprised.
"Please enlighten me, Teacher Ting Yu..."
Zhang Li didn't quite understand.
What luck?
Did he win the lottery?
"I happen to have a song here that perfectly integrates with your film's theme. Let's go and listen to it."
Su Yu said and prepared to get up.
"Perfectly integrated? That's a coincidence?"
Zhang Li's face lit up with joy upon hearing this.
He quickly got up and followed Su Yu.
He was in such a hurry that he forgot to take his bag.
When he realized it, he hesitated for only half a second before continuing to follow Su Yu.
His belongings wouldn't be lost if left there.
Even if they were lost, so what?
Compared to Teacher Ting Yu's song, it was nothing.
The two of them, one after the other, arrived at Zhao Yuan's office door.
Su Yu knocked on the door.
Chen Yong opened the door.
When he saw Su Yu, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face was filled with a smile: "Xiao Yu, you're here at the company?"
There was a faint hint of flattery in his tone, but Chen Yong covered it up quite well, making it difficult for ordinary people to detect.
"Hello, President Chen."
Su Yu, though surprised by Chen Yong's attitude, still smiled and nodded.
"Quick, come in and talk. You must be tired from the elevator ride. Come in and sit down. I was just discussing with Yuan Yuan whether to get you an office, as it's inconvenient for you without one."
Chen Yong quickly made way, letting Su Yu and Zhang Li in.
He was concerned about Su Yu the entire time, completely ignoring Zhang Li, the client.
"President Chen, no need. I don't come to the company often."
Su Yu felt that having a separate office would be a waste.
"How can that be? Although our Xinghui is small, we can still afford an office."
Chen Yong waved his hands repeatedly.
"Alright, you're the boss, you have the final say..."
Su Yu had no choice but to agree.
A Ru, standing aside, couldn't help but pout.
Is this the serious and fair President Chen?
Zhao Yuan was also trying to suppress her laughter.
She thought of Chen Yong's previous attitude towards Su Yu and then looked at his current attitude, and Zhao Yuan felt it the most deeply.
Before, whenever she favored and helped Su Yu, Chen Yong would get angry.
And now, he favored Su Yu even more than she did.
