Gong Juren brought two hot drinks over. "Brother Yu, our own store hasn't opened here yet. I don't know if this suits your taste."
He inserted a straw into the matcha-flavored milk tea in his hand and handed it to Su Yu.
Su Yu took it and took a sip. "This flavor is not bad."
"Really?" Gong Juren was stunned.
"Mm, it would be perfect if it were a little sweeter," Su Yu nodded.
Gong Juren took out his phone and made a note.
"I'll find some time later to buy the milk tea recipe. The key point: add more sugar to the recipe."
After writing it down, he put his phone in his pocket and looked at Zhou Sisi, who was completely bewildered.
"What about mine?" Zhou Sisi asked, holding out her hands.
"Don't you know how to buy it yourself?" Gong Juren said irritably.
Zhou Sisi didn't know how to answer. What Gong Juren said was actually quite reasonable...
Zhou Sisi had lived at Gong Juren's house before and was already used to his temper, so she didn't argue with him like she used to.
"Brother Yu, the event starts in half an hour. Shall we go in first?" Gong Juren turned to Su Yu and asked.
"Okay, let's go in then." Su Yu was a little surprised that these two weren't bickering, but he didn't ask further and nodded.
And so.
Su Yu was sandwiched between Gong Juren and Zhou Sisi.
They walked towards the venue.
...
This time, "Opera Storytelling Gathering" was different from previous ones.
In addition to promoting opera culture and classic opera stories.
They had also invited several singers to perform the songs that Ting Yu had produced for the Opera Association.
The entire storytelling gathering was broadcast live.
As soon as it started, many viewers flooded into the live broadcast room.
The old president watched the live broadcast on the projector, his old face beaming with smiles, the wrinkles deepening.
"It's all Xiao Yu's credit!" he said, patting the table and addressing the members of the association.
The old president's lifelong wish was to promote opera culture. Now that the industry was booming, he was happier than anyone.
"Ting Yu is indeed amazing... impressive." Tang Feng, the son of the vice president of the Opera Association, had met Su Yu before. At that time, Su Yu and Lin Yanyu were not yet together, and he had wanted to show off. However, Gong Juren had cooperated with Su Yu to show off in front of him.
Although he was very angry at the time, later when Su Yu gave the full copyright of "Chi Ling" to the Opera Association, he felt that the person was glowing, and he could never compare to him.
From then on, he was gradually won over by Su Yu's talent and became a fan of this rival.
Just then, a middle-aged man in a suit walked in from outside the door.
"President Zhou, long time no see." He had a gentle and refined demeanor, looking like a scholar from ancient times.
"Little Li, it has been a while since we last met," the old president said, putting down his tablet and nodding with a smile.
This person was Li Ruwen, the president of the Luzhou Tourism Association.
When the Opera Association came to Luzhou to hold an event, he naturally had to be present. Moreover, with the old president here, he had to come no matter what.
"I haven't had time to visit Elder Zhou. It's my negligence," Li Ruwen said with a fawning smile.
"Don't say that, come and sit down and chat," the old president waved his hands quickly.
Li Ruwen nodded with a smile and then sat beside the old president.
"Little Li, you probably didn't come just to see me this time, did you?" the old president asked with a light smile.
"Cough cough... Visiting Elder Zhou is of course the main purpose," Li Ruwen said sheepishly.
Seeing his nervousness, the old president couldn't help but shake his head. These scholars always liked to beat around the bush. "The information you received is correct. Ting Yu will be here for this storytelling gathering. However, if your Tourism Association wants him to write songs, I can only introduce you. Whether it can be done depends on your own communication."
He had known why this person was coming for a long time.
It was because he heard that Ting Yu was coming to watch the "Opera Storytelling Gathering" and wanted to try his luck, asking Ting Yu to write a song for the Luzhou Tourism Association.
"Junior knows. I just hope Elder Zhou will introduce me."
Li Ruwen knew the relationship between the Opera Association and Ting Yu, so he naturally knew that if the old president wanted to introduce him, it would be no problem.
Ting Yu was not from Luzhou, and now he had become a song god. It was extremely difficult for them to find Ting Yu on a normal basis.
This time, since there was an opportunity, they had to try.
Whether it succeeded or not, it was no problem to try.
"Then let's have some tea first, and we'll talk after the storytelling gathering," the old president said cheerfully after he finally stated his purpose.
He disliked dealing with such scholars who beat around the bush. Although they seemed very polite, it was very tiring.
...
The show had already begun.
The Opera Storytelling Gathering naturally featured some classic opera performances.
Peking Opera's "Farewell to the King," Henan Opera's "Heroine," Anhui Opera's "The Double Marriage," and so on.
These were all very classic stories.
These opera stories had long been widely circulated, and many audiences had seen their television adaptations.
Now, seeing the opera versions, they suddenly realized that these were all adaptations from opera.
"Although the characters are different in history, the stories are almost the same," Su Yu had some understanding of opera on Blue Star, but not very deeply. Today, seeing these classic operas, he discovered an interesting point.
The stories told in these operas were similar to many classic operas on Earth, only the protagonists were different.
Thinking of this, many matching songs suddenly popped into his mind.
The show continued.
Finally, Chen Rong and Lin Yanyu took the stage.
They performed "Encountering an Acquaintance in a Foreign Land," a classic opera.
The story tells of a scholar who, after passing the imperial examination, married a princess. However, at the wedding banquet, the opera singer hired to celebrate was his childhood sweetheart.
This opera was very classic, widely circulated, and had been adapted into film and television works.
Therefore, the audience's cheers were continuous.
At this moment.
The popularity of the official live broadcast room suddenly surged.
The barrage of comments was scrolling wildly.
"Damn it, Ting Yu is going to release a new song silently again!"
"If I hadn't checked Weibo, I would have almost missed it!"
"Ting Yu, can you give us some peace of mind? Even if you don't promote it before releasing a song, can you at least post on Weibo as a courtesy?"
"It's just speechless. Other producers promote their new songs everywhere, but Ting Yu, the old rascal, is the most awesome. He always releases songs secretly!!"
"Indeed awesome, the first producer in history to release songs while hiding from his fans!"
"Haha, did everyone come here after seeing that Weibo post from the Opera Association?"
"Otherwise, where else would we get this news..."
These people rushed into the live broadcast room with strong resentment.
Because someone saw the program list on the poster released by the Opera Association.
It listed the program.
"Tàn Chuāng" Performed by: Lin Yanyu.
A few simple words, without mentioning the producer. Those familiar with Ting Yu instantly understood.
This song, the title was unfamiliar, Lin Yanyu was singing, and it was related to opera.
Did they even need to guess?
It was definitely Ting Yu's new song!
And they had caught him red-handed!!
