It took half a month to prepare for the New Year's Eve Gala, from soliciting proposals to finalizing them and finally to rehearsing the process.
As the New Year approaches, the most obvious change on the streets is the increasing number of discount advertisements in shopping malls.
Bai Yangyu took a leave of absence and prepared to buy a New Year's gift for Guan Fei.
"No problem," Zhou Yiyang approved his leave without much thought. "The preparations for the party are almost done, and now the artists are busy. How about I give you some advice?"
Bai Yangyu naturally would not refuse Zhou Yiyang's kindness, not to mention that he had always wanted to find someone to give some advice.
After all, for a straight man like him, buying gifts for his girlfriend and mother is simply the most difficult time of the year.
"Mr. Zhou," Bai Yangyu said, walking behind Zhou Yiyang with a subtle expression. From a distance, he looked like Zhou Yiyang's personal bodyguard. "Why don't I just buy some flowers? I saw online that there's no woman who doesn't love flowers."
Zhou Yiyang shook his head after hearing this. He glanced at Bai Yangyu and said earnestly, "If everything you see online worked, there wouldn't be so many bachelors in this world. Honestly, do you think Guan Fei really likes flowers? Think about it, she's never bought flowers herself, has she?"
This statement made Bai Yangyu think seriously for a moment, and then he said, "Mr. Zhou, you're right. It seems she really has never bought flowers. Sometimes when we pass by those flower shops, she complains to me, saying, 'Why buy those flowers? They wither after a while and don't hold their value.'"
Zhou Yiyang finally laughed: "See, I told you, Guan Fei doesn't seem like someone who likes flowers."
"So she's a pragmatist?" Bai Yangyu recalled the methods he'd seen on Douyin and felt he'd mastered them all, ready to start right away. "Then I'll go buy her some everyday things... For example, lipstick? Mr. Zhou, I remember the brand of lipstick endorsed by Yue Shao and the others is pretty good, right?"
Zhou Yiyang actually didn't want to disturb Bai Yangyu's enthusiasm, but he thought that if Guan Fei knew that it was his suggestion for this gift, she would probably blame him.
"Actually, it's not recommended to give lipstick as a gift." Zhou Yiyang seemed to see the surprise in Bai Yangyu's eyes, and then he explained to him bit by bit: "Do you know what color she usually likes? If you don't know, you might step on a bad one."
"What if I choose a popular color?" Bai Yangyu seemed to have not given up the idea of buying lipstick.
"That's not impossible, but she might think you didn't prepare carefully enough and the surprise wasn't enough."
Bai Yangyu suddenly rubbed his head vigorously, revealing a look of despair: "Boss Zhou, is giving gifts to girls really such a troublesome thing? Then what should I do!"
"Let's go shopping at the mall," Zhou Yiyang seemed to be particularly free today, "buy whatever you see."
After entering the mall, Bai Yangyu and Zhou Yiyang noticed not any special gifts, but the advertising endorsement of Moonlight Girl.
Looking around, whether it is a mobile phone brand, cosmetics, clothing brand or even electronic products, the images of these four people are on the huge billboards.
Bai Yangyu looked up at the scene, then turned to Zhou Yiyang and said, "Boss Zhou, they're really amazing now. Look, their ads are everywhere. They're so popular."
"Well, this is the first time I discovered that they are also the ones offline." Zhou Yiyang's words were not Versailles. He only thought that Moonlight Girls were very popular on the Internet, but he had never been to offline shopping malls.
But now he has discovered that in addition to the Internet, even the offline market has long been conquered by them.
"I might as well just pick any one from the brands they endorse," Bai Yangyu said cheerfully. "As their agent, I think she'll be incredibly happy no matter which one she receives."
"That's a good idea," Zhou Yiyang suddenly asked, "Besides the gifts, have you thought about how to spend the day?"
Hearing this, Bai Yangyu suddenly fell silent. He then scratched the back of his head sheepishly and said, "Mr. Zhou, are you kidding me? That day, I must have waited until the party was over before going home with her."
"Actually, it won't make much difference whether you're with her or not on the day of the party." Zhou Yiyang said seriously, "I'll give you a holiday, so you two can go and celebrate the festival! Our company isn't like it was in the beginning, we have more than enough staff. Even if you're not there, nothing will go wrong."
Bai Yangyu was naturally grateful, but he also felt a little embarrassed: "Boss Zhou, this is not good. Everyone else is still working that day, but we are taking a holiday. It's not good."
"I've already approved it, so don't overthink it. There's always work to do, and your own life is important, too. Just promise me one thing: schedule the wedding. I think you two have been together for so long, it's time to talk about marriage."
Bai Yangyu's face flushed, but he couldn't refute: "Mr. Zhou, I, I will work hard."
Zhou Yiyang nodded and continued to accompany Bai Yangyu shopping in the mall.
In the end, Bai Yangyu chose a mobile phone endorsed by Moonlight Girl and a tablet computer of the same brand.
Guan Fei has always used these two things, and she hasn't replaced them for a long time.
When Zhou Yiyang was leaving the mall, he suddenly heard the singing of Moonlight Girl coming from all directions. Only then did he realize that this mall would play "Havana" every hour on the hour.
As for why, Zhou Yiyang learned from the Internet that the answer is that listening to this song can stimulate people's desire to shop.
Guan Fei naturally didn't know that Bai Yangyu had secretly prepared a gift for her, because she was still in the practice room with the four of them training.
"Sister Fei, do you know who Brother Yang finally invited?" Lin Xuan'er asked anxiously.
"There are still two people discussing it. If they don't come, we should just shorten the party and not add people." Guan Fei's answer was very reliable.
"So among the people invited now, Brother Bei is still the most famous, right?" Tang Yue has always been concerned about this kind of question. She even looks forward to the release of the poster for the final party to see who will be in the C position and the protector position.
"If the last two didn't come, then it should be." Guan Fei smiled mysteriously.
"Huh?" Wang Xingrui was puzzled. "Sister Fei, you mean those two are more famous than Brother Bei? That's impossible, right?"
Su Yin touched his chin and thought for a while before saying, "There's a possibility. Could it be that these two people aren't from our country? That would make sense."
Guan Fei smiled but didn't give an answer. "The list will be officially announced the day after tomorrow. You'll know then."
