As soon as Xing Baohua finished speaking, several girls stood up and wanted to sign up!

Xing Baohua requested that a sea blue and a bright purple be mixed. The group of painters were very knowledgeable about color.

Following Xing Baohua's instructions, they quickly got to work. Guo Hongxia, who had a hairdryer in her dormitory, also rushed back to get it.

The experiment was simple: Guo Hongxia selected two girls and used a flat-tipped paintbrush to brush the strands of their hair.

Guo Hongxia quickly dried her hair with a hairdryer.

Half an hour to finish half a head, that's incredibly efficient.

That's how the most basic makeup and hairstyles were created.

This is also what Xing Baohua was looking forward to: a leather jacket and pants, along with black, blue, and purple makeup and hairstyle.

If they give it another blow-dry and haircut, it'll turn into a total "emo" style.

It can't be too bizarre; Chinese people won't accept it.

We had to wait for the makeup artist to arrive before discussing how to style our hair.

After waiting for about half an hour, Director Wang brought over an elderly woman.

After listening to Director Wang's introduction, I learned that this was the most experienced makeup artist in their factory, who is now retired at home.

Xing Baohua blinked, feeling speechless. He himself wasn't very reliable, and as a result, everything else became unreliable.

Well, the older the better, Xing Baohua still believes in that saying.

He called Guo Hongxia, a student, and a makeup artist to go to the orchestra.

Upon arriving at their destination, Su Ya and her group prepared to go eat. We should all go together!

Around 1 p.m., the cars started coming to pick us up. Three of them were Jiefang trucks with big noses.

Xing Baohua and his team were also busy installing equipment. All the men were shoved into the truck, which was full of young women and old ladies.

Fortunately, none of them were overweight, so they managed to squeeze through and led the five women to wait in the auditorium.

Xing Baohua told Su Ya and the others to wait for the main group, while he went to find Li Wengang to ask about the arrangements.

We finally found her backstage. We asked around and found out that Zou Wenjuan's program could be performed, but it had to be rehearsed once. If it went well, she would be the last performer.

Xing Baohua thought to himself, "So be it! It's better than nothing!"

What time does it start?

"From 7:30 to 9:30 in the evening," Li Wengang said.

What time is the afternoon rehearsal?

“I don’t know yet, I’ll check the program later. Tell your people not to go too far away, I’ll have someone notify you later. Also, come help me later, I’m planning to use the wireless equipment at this gala,” Li Wengang said.

"You're really daring!" Xing Baohua said, shaking his head.

"We've tested it many times, and we even had someone add some anti-interference components, so there shouldn't be any major problems," Li Wengang said.

"If you're confident, that's fine. I have no problem with that. But one last thing: for use in a theater, it's best to use wired connections. First, it's safer, and second, wired output stability is always better than wireless!" Xing Baohua advised.

“I know that! How can you win a science and technology progress award if you don’t use these devices on important occasions?” Li Wengang said confidently.

"Damn, that makes so much sense! I'm speechless," Xing Baohua thought to himself, feeling frustrated.

Go out and see how the main force is doing.

After helping the staff move the equipment to the auditorium, about half an hour later, Li Wengang sent someone to find Xing Baohua. Their rehearsal was scheduled for around 4 p.m.

With this timeframe in mind, Xing Baohua could better arrange personnel. He instructed Wang Weibao to contact the lighting technician to discuss lighting effects.

Then, Guo Hongxia and a makeup artist were arranged to style Zou Wenjuan's hair.

Su Ya followed Xing Baohua around busily, but couldn't help much, and in the end she just obediently watched the show.

It wasn't until the afternoon rehearsal that Xing Baohua noticed Grandpa Li following behind Teacher Zhao.

This person is also going to perform on stage, quietly singing the lead role. Teacher Zhao has also arranged for several people to provide backing vocals for him, making it quite a large entourage.

Li Wengang asked him to come over and help adjust the audio system.

This guy went over to take a look, really took a look. Anyway, the system was running stably, and nothing was wrong.

Even if there's a problem, it can't be solved; it's a hardware issue and we have to take it back to get it fixed! There's no way to do that on-site.

Fortunately, the quality is good, so it's alright.

I saw radio operators setting up cameras and installing large pan-tilt units.

Xing Baohua asked, "Is this still being recorded? Or is it live?"

"Live broadcast? Is that even possible? They're all pre-recorded and then played back. There's no such thing as a live broadcast," Li Wengang said.

"Does that mean tomorrow will see it?"

"Yes!" Li Wengang nodded.

This time, a host has already come on stage to announce the program, and the rehearsal has officially begun.

The members of the Suzhou troupe were already prepared; they were just going through the motions. These were all troupes that performed frequently and were very experienced.

Xing Baohua led Su Ya to sit below the stage and watch the Su Group rehearse.

"I really thought highly of this girl and the other one, and I wanted to ask them to publish tapes for audio-visual publishing houses. Unfortunately, I almost mistook them for scammers." Xing Baohua told Su Ya about what happened that day as a joke.

Su Ya covered her mouth and chuckled softly, saying, "At first glance, you don't seem like a good person. Everyone here is shrewd."

"I need to find a way to lure them over here and make some money for me! Don't you know how desperately the factory is short of cash right now?"
