"Teacher Su Yu, I'm bothering you again." Director Qian called Su Yu with a headache, his tone incredibly humble and polite.
The current popularity and success of this variety show in China truly depended on Su Yu's Tianxing Entertainment.
And this time...
"Director Qian, just say what you need to. We've collaborated so many times, why are you still being so polite?"
On the hospital bed, Su Yu, who had just undergone an excision surgery, spoke with a somewhat weak voice.
The surgery was performed after the Huaying Award, following a re-examination, the results of which were naturally very good.
However, the attending physician, who had always urged Su Yu to live a life of purity and few desires, still brought up the requirement for Su Yu to "remove the root."
In reality, his illness had already been completely cured by System Miss, and it was impossible for it to recur!
But Su Yu couldn't reveal anything about the system!
In the end, under Han Jiangxue's concerned gaze, he went under the knife.
And recently, after returning from a trip and having nothing to do, Su Yu simply accepted the attending physician's suggestion.
However, the outside world did not receive even a hint of the message about Su Yu's surgery.
Even the celebrity artists under Su Yu's wing at Tianxing Entertainment were unaware.
"Are you sick?" Director Qian was such a shrewd person; he immediately noticed the unusualness in Su Yu's voice.
So he asked nervously.
He had come to ask Su Yu to fill in for the eleventh episode!
Now, with only about half a month, less than twenty days, until the eleventh episode, surely Su Yu wasn't going to be unable to do it too?
Moreover, Su Yu had a medical history; God knew what his physical condition was truly like!
Connecting this with Su Yu's frequent absence from the camera, Director Qian's heart also skipped a beat.
"I had a small surgery, it's nothing serious. Director Qian, just state your business!" Su Yu didn't want to continue chatting and urged the other party to get to the point.
"Well, it's like this, Dong An doesn't have much stock left, and Chu Ming doesn't want to fill in. We wanted to ask you if you could fill in for the eleventh episode."
Director Qian bit the bullet and stated his purpose.
Su Yu had just undergone surgery, and he was still bringing up such a matter, which made Director Qian feel a bit inhuman!
"Oh, I see. Let Dong An finish the eleventh episode, and I'll fill in starting from the twelfth episode, is that okay?"
Su Yu seemed to be thinking, and after a moment, he gave this reply.
But Su Yu was actually asking System Miss in his heart when he could perform on stage like a normal person!
And the answer given by System Miss was that it would take at least 20 more days!
This meant he couldn't make it for the eleventh episode on the 16th, so Su Yu could only settle for the twelfth episode.
"Teacher Su Yu, is it really no problem? If your physical condition can't keep up, there's absolutely no need to force yourself!"
Director Qian's conflicted voice came through the phone. One reason was that Su Yu had agreed, and a huge weight had been lifted from his heart.
The other was Su Yu's physical condition, which truly worried him.
If something were to happen to Su Yu during the competition, it would be an extremely serious accident for him and for the officials!
"I'm recovering, 20 days is enough, and I know my own body best. Also, Director Qian, I don't want my situation to get out."
Su Yu didn't want the news of his surgery to trend on social media. His popularity was already very high, and there was no need to hype it up with this matter.
"Okay! I won't tell anyone else!" Director Qian nodded in agreement repeatedly.
He was currently asking Su Yu for a favor, and he didn't want Su Yu to lose trust in him because of something on his end.
Moreover, when it came to keeping secrets, Director Qian was a professional.
Just like with "Who is the Singer," no one could know who Wu Anjun was until the very last moment!
However, on May 1st, Director Qian still came to Su Yu's home in Yanjing with large bags of gifts and tonics to visit him.
One reason was that he knew about Su Yu's situation, and as a friend, he absolutely couldn't pretend not to know.
The other was that he wanted to see Su Yu's recovery after the surgery.
If the real situation wasn't as good as Su Yu said, then even if he had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn't dare let Su Yu fill in.
It was just a variety show competition; how could it be more important than Su Yu's health?
After seeing Su Yu, Director Qian finally felt relieved.
Because Su Yu could already walk freely, and his complexion showed no problems.
His voice was no longer the weak one from their previous phone call.
Of course, at Su Yu's home, Director Qian also saw many expected big names from the entertainment industry.
It's unclear who leaked the news, but Su Yu's friends in his circle gradually got wind of the message.
One after another, as if by prior arrangement, they came to visit.
today, Director Qian met Liu Furong, Jacky Cheung, and Ye Mei from Hong Kong!
Good heavens, someone who didn't know might have thought Su Yu was some big shot from Hong Kong.
To think these three would take time out of their busy schedules to visit him.
Because Jacky Cheung's new album had broken the new record for domestic music albums, he had truly been incredibly busy recently.
But after hearing about Su Yu from Ye Mei, he immediately asked to come along without a second thought.
He wasn't someone who would "kill the donkey after it grinds the mill"; how could he be content with his collaboration with Su Yu being a one-time deal?
In the future, whether it was music or movies, he still wanted to continue collaborating with Su Yu.
Moreover, tomorrow was the celebration for "hidden war," and as one of the lead actors, he had to come no matter how busy he was.
There was no need to say much about Liu Furong; one reason was the celebration, and the other was his closer friendship with Su Yu.
This time, if Ye Mei hadn't accidentally discovered Su Yu's situation while video chatting with Han Jiangxue, all of them would have been kept in the dark.
This also led to the three of them, upon arriving, scolding Su Yu, the patient, for being inconsiderate and not treating them as friends.
In fact, they were also startled when they heard the news.
After all, as friends, no one wanted to see Su Yu's health problems resurface!
And seeing Su Yu's current state, they were clearly much more relieved.
Before Director Qian arrived, they were discussing "hidden war 2" or the next movie.
The achievements of "hidden war" were simply too formidable, making many Hong Kong capitalists and so-called big shots envious.
So they each pulled strings and found connections, hoping Su Yu could shoot a sequel or come to Hong Kong again to shoot similar films.
Of course, if possible, they naturally hoped to participate in some investments or promote their own celebrity artists.
Anyway, for the now declining Hong Kong entertainment industry, there was nothing to lose, right?
However, Su Yu had no intention of shooting "hidden war 2"; one such similar plot was enough.
But continuing to collaborate with Liu Furong and the others was not a problem.
Because he had already thought of a very, very classic film series.
