“You saw it with your own eyes just now. The scar on Xu Wangzhi’s face has recovered,” Director Cheng said. “This injury wasn’t as serious as they made it out to be. It’s only right for you to make a comeback. It’s just that this matter has caused a lot of public opinion. I have a friend who’s very familiar with Mayor Xu. He’ll introduce Mayor Xu to us in two days. In a few days, it’ll be the city’s cultural celebration. Mayor Xu will be attending. At that time, you can show your face at the event and say a few words to Mayor Xu. That’ll be the first step in your comeback.”
Chengyu was filled with confidence when he heard his father’s words.
If he made a comeback by Mayor Xu’s side, who would dare to say anything? Even Su Zhuoqian had to give Mayor Xu some face, right?
In the private room…
Mayor Xu raised his glass and clinked it with Qiao Weiyang’s. “Wangzhi, this child, is determined to survive in the entertainment industry. It’s all thanks to you taking care of him these few times. His mother and I are here to give you a toast.”
“Mayor Xu, you’re too kind. Wangzhi and I are friends to begin with, and he’s Aunt Lin’s student. It’s only right for us to take care of each other.”
The three of them raised their glasses and drank together.
Mayor Xu and Madam Xu thanked Lu Mingjue and Tao Huan as well.
“By the way, there’s a cultural celebration in two days. Weiyang, you and your friends should be attending, right?” Mayor Xu asked.
“Yes, I plan on going. I also want to publicize Stalker at the event.”
“Alright, get Brother Tang to contact them. I’ll arrange for someone to help you with the publicity.”
Xu Wangzhi smiled. “Dad, this is the first time you’ve helped me promote my work. This means that you’ve officially acknowledged my profession, right?”
“I’m acknowledging Weiyang, not you!” Mayor Xu said angrily.
Xu Wangzhi muttered to himself, “Am I really his biological son?”
In the blink of an eye, the city’s cultural celebration was held.
Related cultural projects would receive wide publicity at the event.
Many fans knew that Stalker would also do publicity at the event and had been looking forward to it.
Especially Qiao Weiyang’s and Xu Wangzhi’s fans.
This was Qiao Weiyang’s first time investing independently and filming a movie. It was another start in her career.
On the other hand, Xu Wangzhi had filmed with an injury, which made the fans’ hearts ache. They looked forward to the success of this work and seeing how it would be worthy of his efforts.
In addition, there was also a group of fans who had already started preparing for the event.
They were Chengyu’s fans.
The news of Chengyu’s comeback had long spread throughout the fan circle.
Everyone felt that his comeback was a sure bet. After all, Xu Wangzhi’s face had recovered. Chengyu did not need to pay such a huge price. He had already endured enough for the past few months.
The big fans also secretly told everyone to prepare for his return.
The support items were also ready.
At the event location, Qiao Weiyang and Xu Wangzhi appeared together.
Seeing that there were many signs with Chengyu’s name among the crowd, Qiao Weiyang frowned slightly.
Brother Tang quickly said, “I’ve quietly asked around. Chengyu wants to make a comeback this time.”
“So, Director Cheng is not making good on his promise, huh?” It was rare for Qiao Weiyang to curse.
“That’s what I think too. But the outside world is quite supportive of him, especially after knowing that Wangzhi’s face has recovered…” Brother Tang was helpless.
“Wangzhi’s face is fine because of me. But Wangzhi’s injury was caused by Chengyu!”
“Forget it. If they could realize this logic, they wouldn’t be supporting Chengyu,” Xu Wangzhi advised.
Xu Wangzhi seemed to be a generous man.
Sure enough, not long after, Director Cheng and Chengyu appeared at the event location.
Chengyu waved at the fans.
The fans screamed especially loudly. They hadn’t seen him in months and really missed him.
They had been eagerly waiting for his comeback.
“Dad, I’m sure I can make a comeback today, right?”
Director Cheng said, “When my friend comes over, you’ll get to say a few words to Mayor Xu before getting interviewed by the reporters. There’s basically no problem.”
All channels had been prepared.
Arrangements had also been made with the reporters.
As long as the response was not bad, Cheng Yu could join the cast and film.
“Hello, Secretary Tang. This is my son, Cheng Yu.” Director Cheng saw a middle-aged man and immediately greeted him.
“Hello, Secretary Tang.”
Secretary Tang nodded indifferently. “Director Cheng, I’ll go look for Mayor Xu first. I’ll get Chengyu to come over later.”
“Okay, thank you, Secretary Tang.” Director Cheng had to bow down in front of Secretary Tang.
In front of true power, his identity as a big shot director meant nothing.
Chengyu’s eyes were filled with longing. He had left the glamorous entertainment industry for a few months and could not wait to come back.
Secretary Tang arrived at Mayor Xu’s side.
Xu Wangzhi and Qiao Weiyang were walking over.
Secretary Tang stopped them. “Where are you going?”
This was the only way to Mayor Xu’s lounge. Many people wanted to come over, but it was naturally impossible for just anyone to go in.
Did Qiao Weiyang and Xu Wangzhi think they could go in just because of their identities?
Secretary Tang recognized Xu Wangzhi. It was originally impossible for him to know Xu Wangzhi since he didn’t pay attention to the entertainment industry. However, Director Cheng and Chengyu had mentioned Xu Wangzhi’s name too frequently these days. He had long gotten to know Xu Wangzhi and Qiao Weiyang.
Xu Wangzhi looked at the person in front of him and frowned. “I’m looking for someone.”
“Don’t go in this direction. Go look elsewhere.” Secretary Tang looked him up and down. Could it be that he knew that Chengyu was looking for Mayor Xu today, so he wanted to get close to Mayor Xu first?
“I’ve already made an appointment.”
“This isn’t a place for you.” Secretary Tang blocked him.
Xu Wangzhi glanced at Qiao Weiyang, who said calmly, “Then let’s go to the event location and wait.”
Xu Wangzhi had no objections and went out with Qiao Weiyang.
A moment later, Mayor Xu walked out with many people around him.
Secretary Tang immediately went up to him. “Mayor Xu, everything is ready outside. We’re just waiting for you to head over.”
Mayor Xu nodded. He didn’t see Xu Wangzhi. He glanced around and walked forward.
Secretary Tang and the others followed.
A group of people sat in the front row.
Director Cheng and Chengyu couldn’t help but look excited when they saw Mayor Xu.
Secretary Tang was close to them. He glanced at them, and Chengyu made an ‘OK’ gesture.
The reporters had already made arrangements. As long as Chengyu appeared with Mayor Xu, his comeback would not be a problem.
Even if the people outside questioned why he made a comeback in such a short period of time, it was impossible for it to cause too much of a problem considering Director Cheng’s reputation.
Qiao Weiyang’s and Xu Wangzhi’s seats were not specially arranged. They were far from Mayor Xu’s seat.
It seemed that it would not be easy for them to come into contact with Mayor Xu, who was surrounded by people.
