"Magistrate, is there something you need?"

Magistrate Li nodded, his gaze falling on the face of a middle-aged man.

"Deputy Magistrate Zhang, there is an urgent and extremely important matter now!"

"Immediately arrange your current work and have others share the load for you."

Deputy Magistrate Zhang was instantly stunned.

What does this mean? Am I being stripped of my power?

"As for you..." Magistrate Li took a deep breath and continued.

"You must personally go and invite several veteran artists from the county."

"Then accompany them to the Imperial Capital to perform on the Spring Festival Gala!"

What?

Everyone in the room was stunned.

Perform on the Spring Festival Gala?

Just our small county town actually has a chance to appear on the Spring Festival Gala?

That's not right... where in the county are there veteran artists of this caliber?

Before they could figure it out, Magistrate Li had already continued giving orders.

"The County Government Office must form a temporary support team and ensure all support work is done properly."

"Book the nearest flights and arrange vehicles."

"Considering the several veteran artists are not young, assign a doctor to the support team."

"The propaganda department must prepare publicity drafts in advance and launch publicity work after the Spring Festival Gala..."

The Magistrate gave orders one by one, but the group became increasingly confused.

Deputy Magistrate Zhang finally couldn't hold back and asked.

"Magistrate, what is going on exactly?"

"I am in charge of culture and tourism work, but who exactly are these veteran artists you mentioned?"

Magistrate Li nodded and said seriously.

"These veteran artists were personally named and invited by Su Meng; they..."

Su Meng?

Several deputy magistrates instantly became serious.

Finally finishing the phone call, Su Meng took out his laptop and started typing furiously.

Liu Huan, who was driving, saw this and calmly slowed the car down.

By the time they walked into Rehearsal Hall No. 3, everyone had already arrived.

Having just collaborated in 'Flash Girl', they were naturally not strangers and were already chatting enthusiastically.

However, regarding Su Meng's arrangements, everyone was completely at a loss.

Duan Duan Jiangping and Qin Jie were also mingling in the crowd, running back and forth aimlessly.

Yet they still couldn't get a single piece of news.

Both of them were already numb inside.

Wait, aren't we Su Meng's boss and manager?

So why do we know absolutely nothing about Su Meng's affairs?

"Teacher Su is here!" Xiao Ying was the first to spot Su Meng and shouted excitedly.

Seeing this, the others immediately gathered around and asked in a clamor.

"Su Meng, why did you call us here in such a hurry? What is going on?"

"What exactly is this Spring Festival Gala you mentioned?"

Su Meng smiled and waved a stack of sheet music he had just printed.

"I made a new song and am trying to make a splash at the Spring Festival Gala."

"Wow! Su Meng, you're amazing! Is this a song written for me?"

Deng Ziqi cheered and rushed over immediately.

In her view, she was the only professional singer here, so if it wasn't for her, who else could it be for?

Su Meng chuckled lightly and said calmly.

"This song doesn't suit your style; I plan to have Bai Xiao Ling sing it."

What? Deng Ziqi was instantly stunned.

She suddenly remembered that Bai Xiao Ling's vocal prowess... damn, seems to be even above mine?

"My song?" Bai Xiao Ling was also somewhat curious.

She casually took the sheet music, glanced at it, and suddenly her expression changed.

"This melody... it is actually..."

"You figured it out?" Su Meng was also slightly surprised.

Bai Xiao Ling looked at him and nodded seriously.

"I studied it before; this singing style is very challenging."

"Do you have the confidence?" Su Meng asked eagerly.

Bai Xiao Ling looked up and scanned the crowd, then lowered her head to think for a moment before speaking slowly.

"The current personnel configuration... is not enough! Even the Yinyuexue Academy in the Imperial Capital cannot find a suitable person!"

Hu Zhengyuan and Liu Huan were instantly stunned.

What kind of song is it that even the Yinyuexue Academy in the Imperial Capital can't find a suitable person for?

"You know your stuff! This song is perfect for you!" Su Meng was instantly overjoyed.

"Don't worry, I've invited a few artists to anchor the show; they'll arrive early tomorrow morning. How long will it take you to master the song?"

Bai Xiao Ling thought for a moment and said seriously.

"The difficulty is very high, so... give me three hours!"

What?

The whole group was instantly bewildered.

The difficulty is very high... so you need three hours?

You'll master a new song in three hours? And one meant to make a splash at the Spring Festival Gala?

You must be joking, right?

Doesn't anyone preparing for the Spring Festival Gala start months in advance?

Liu Tianxian wasn't particularly interested in singing, but asked curiously.

"Su Meng, since you've given the song to Xiao Ling, what about us?"

"What do we do?"

"Exactly!" Deng Ziqi also wore an expression of indignation.

"I'm a professional singer, after all; isn't I a minor queen of the Chinese music scene?"

"Do you look down on me like that?"

Su Meng smiled and turned to say.

"Xiao Ying, your bass playing isn't bad, right? Beibei and Tata, your guitar skills are good too; you two will accompany Xiao Ling."

"Okay, Teacher Su!" The three little lollies didn't think much of it and answered in unison.

Su Meng turned his head again and said.

"Reba, Tianxian, you both can play the piano, right? You're not unfamiliar with keyboards either?"

"How about you two go accompany Xiao Ling?"

Huh? Hearing this, the whole group was instantly bewildered.

Especially Duan Jiangping and Qin Jie, who were on the verge of cursing in their hearts.

Those two are at least top-tier superstars; you want them to accompany the unknown Bai Xiao Ling?

What were you thinking?

But unexpectedly, Liu Tianxian and Reba didn't think twice and nodded at the same time.
