Chapter 383: Dragon Nation's Voice is Born, Bai Xiao Ling Sweeps the European and American Music Scene

"Guide, is there good news again?"

Having returned to Star Sea Entertainment, Xiang Zhiming's face was plastered with smiles.

His mood these past few months had been like a roller coaster.

The ups and downs of the Spring Festival Gala, especially Su Meng's barrage against it, had nearly made him cry.

He had once thought his future was completely bleak.

But unexpectedly, the station not only didn't blame him, but instead assigned him to serve as Su Meng's associate director.

Originally, this matter made quite a few people wonder, thinking it was a rhythm of exile.

Even Xiang Zhiming had once thought so.

But who could have thought that Su Meng had actually directed such an earth-shattering TV series?

Now, as the deputy associate director of "Drawing Sword," his personal credentials had increased significantly.

Hearing Su Meng summon him, before he could even react, the station immediately bought him a plane ticket and sent him off.

Judging by the posture, the station seemed more anxious than he was.

Su Meng invited him to sit down, had a cup of tea, and then asked.

"Guide, may I ask presumptuously, do you have any work arrangements recently?"

Xiang Zhiming's eyes lit up, and he shook his head like a rattle drum.

"No, Director Su, do you have a new drama to shoot?"

"Is it an anti-Japanese war drama again?"

"Rest assured, I will definitely help you do a good job communicating with Yangshi!"

Not only him, but Duan Jiangping and Qin Jie also wore expressions of curiosity.

The two of them, even until now, still didn't know what medicine Su Meng was selling in his gourd.

Su Meng shook his head and smiled.

"You guessed half right."

"I do have a project and want to cooperate with Yangshi."

"However, this time it is not a TV series, but a variety show."

Va... Variety show?

The group was instantly stunned speechless.

You're crossing over a bit too aggressively, right?

Just finished filming a movie, then went to shoot a TV series, and now from what you say, you plan to attack variety shows again?

Xiang Zhiming paused for a moment and asked in confusion.

"Director Su, did I hear that wrong? You're preparing to launch a variety show?"

"Yes." Su Meng nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"To be precise, it is an inspirational professional music commentary program!"

What the heck?

Several large question marks floated above the heads of the group.

What the hell is this inspirational professional music program.

Do these words... have any connection?

Duan Jiangping thought for a moment and asked in confusion.

"Su Meng, what do these words... mean?"

Several black lines appeared on Su Meng's face, and he said in a bad mood.

"To put it plainly, you can understand it as a music talent show program for ordinary people!"

Pfft... the group almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

You made it sound so high-end, and it turns out it's just a talent show?

Xiang Zhiming thought for a moment and said with a bitter smile.

"Director Su, you might not be very concerned about the current variety show market; music talent shows are a bit old... traditional."

He almost said the word "cliché" and quickly softened his tone.

Su Meng just smiled and said nothing.

Instead, Qin Jie jumped straight up.

"What is there to think about?"

"Project approval! Must be approved immediately!"

Su Meng waved his hand, signaling her to be quiet for a moment.

"Guide, a straightforward person doesn't speak in riddles."

"The reason I'm asking you to discuss this matter is mainly for two reasons."

"First, you once directed the Spring Festival Gala, so I want to pull you over to be the chief director of this program."

"Second, actually, I also have my eyes on the Yangshi platform."

"If this program can be broadcast on the Yangshi platform, that would naturally be the best."

"If Yangshi doesn't like it, we will produce it independently and broadcast it on other satellite TV platforms."

Hearing this, Xiang Zhiming also fell into a dilemma.

Whether it was him personally or Yangshi, the relationship with Su Meng was currently like honey mixed with oil.

Judging by Su Meng's posture, he was determined to do it.

At this moment, Yangshi would inevitably have to pay some attention.

Having thought these things through, Xiang Zhiming grew serious.

"Director Su, I cannot make the decision on this matter; I need to return to the station and report to the leadership."

"Your proposal shouldn't be finished yet, right?"

"You can tell me roughly about the core selling points of the program you envision, so I can report to the leadership."

"Oh, by the way, whether it's me personally or the professional ethics of Yangshi, you can rest assured."

"Even if we don't cooperate, we certainly won't engage in piracy."

Su Meng smiled, casually picking up a stack of documents.

"The overall project proposal is already done; you can take it directly to report~~."

Already done?

The few of them were instantly dumbfounded.

You've been busy as a mule these past days; it's only been a few days since you finished the TV drama, and you've already written it?

Su Meng handed one copy to each person, explaining with his mouth.

"As for the selling points, there are quite a few, but the most critical one is only this!"

He took a deep breath and said slowly.

"No shame!"

What?

The three were startled; the documents they had just received in their hands went *clatter*, dropping straight to the floor.

No shame? Are you serious when you say that?

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" Su Meng coughed dryly a few times, feeling a bit awkward too.

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue; it should be said... no looking at faces!"

No looking at faces? The few of them were even more confused.

Su Meng explained patiently.

"In current music talent shows, the contestants' appearance occupies a very large proportion."

"But my program completely subverts this model."

"All the mentors face away from the contestants, hearing only their voices, seeing no one; they decide whether to turn around solely based on the contestant's singing!"

Eh? That's a bit interesting!
