Zhao Liang knew that Fang Yang was invited by CTV to do an interview, so they chose to have lunch near CTV. After lunch, they would finish the interview, and the rest of the time would be for the brothers to get together.
As soon as they ordered and the waiter left, Zhao Liang's gossip-loving spirit flared up. "Yangzi, tell me, what's going on?"
Fang Yang feigned ignorance, "What? What happened?"
Zhao Liang stared at Fang Yang and Zhou Xin, "You two, how did you meet, and how did you get together? Tell me honestly, or I'll force you to use force!"
Fang Yang rolled his eyes at Zhao Liang. "What are you talking about? Zhou Xin is the female lead in my new drama. She's traveling in Shanghai right now, and I happened to be coming to Kyoto anyway, so we came together. Is there a problem with that?"
Zhao Liang looked at Fang Yang suspiciously, "Is it really that simple? I have a feeling something's not quite right."
"That's because you're too paranoid. You feel like everyone you see is strange. You're sick, you need to take medicine!"
Zhao Liang's suspicious look lessened slightly, but it wasn't completely dispelled. "Never mind, it's normal for us to be together. Yangzi, what's the story behind CTV wanting to interview you?"
"It's not the song from the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala. I heard it was quite popular, especially since it was included in the National Day celebrations, so CTV arranged an interview with us."
"You're awesome! Singing a song has been included in the National Day celebrations. Who knows, this might be a stepping stone for you someday. It'll be beneficial for you."
Fang Yang smiled and said, "We'll talk about the future later. Let's eat first. I'm starving. Didn't you see the food is already served?"
Seeing that Zhou Xin had already started eating secretly, Zhao Liang was furious. "Hey, you little tagalong, don't you even wait for us before you start eating?"
“You two grown men have so much to talk about, what am I supposed to say if I join in? Anyway, you’re not hungry, so it’s okay to talk a little longer. I can call you back after I’ve finished eating.”
Zhao Liang picked up his chopsticks and started grabbing food. He didn't have time to talk anymore. He was so hungry. It was past one o'clock. If he didn't eat now, would he have to eat it with dinner?
The three of them wolfed down their food, finishing each plate in one go. Soon, their bellies were round and full. Zhao Liang patted his round belly and slumped in his chair. "It's been so long since I've eaten this well. Yangzi, you'd better stay a few more days this time. I'll take you to eat all the delicious food in the streets and alleys of the capital!"
"I can only stay for three or four days at most. My new drama starts filming next week, and I have a lot of things to do when I get back."
"Three or four days is fine. How's your deal going? I'm looking forward to going there and enjoying the good life."
Zhou Xin turned to look at Fang Yang, "What's wrong? Why are you being so mysterious? Can't you just say it out loud?"
Fang Yang waved his hand. "It's nothing serious. I just want to acquire a cinema chain. Didn't I tell you about it last time? I'm thinking of having Liangzi manage it after the acquisition. What do you think?"
Zhou Xin nodded, "Sure, you really picked the right person, Big Guy! Big Guy, will your family let you go?"
"Release it! Why won't we release it? It's not illegal, why won't we release it!"
It was already 2:30 when they finished eating. Fang Yang had arranged to meet CCTV at 3:00, so he didn't delay any longer and got up to head to CCTV with Zhao Liang. Zhou Xin, on the other hand, leisurely went home, making an appointment with Fang Yang to visit Jinghua Film and Television the next day.
A dozen minutes later, Fang Yang and Zhao Liang arrived at CCTV. Fang Yang took out his phone and dialed the contact number on the invitation. A deep voice came from the other end: "Is this Mr. Fang? Have you arrived at the TV station yet?"
"Yes, I'm in your TV station lobby now. How can I find you?"
"Please wait a moment, I'll come down to get you right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Fang Yang and Zhao Liang waited quietly in the lobby. People came and went, but no one paid any attention to Fang Yang's presence. For employees of CCTV, who were used to seeing handsome men and beautiful women, they had long since developed a calm and composed demeanor.
Less than five minutes later, a man in his forties, walking briskly and standing as straight as a pillar, came to greet him. Even from a few meters away, he called out loudly, "Mr. Fang, I'm so sorry for the delay. I should have come down to greet you earlier!"
Fang Yang took a few quick steps and met the person's outstretched hand. "You must be Director Fu. You're too kind. You should have told me the address so I could have just gone upstairs."
"How can that be? You're a guest, it's only right! Come this way, let's talk as we walk. To be honest, your rendition of 'The Moon on the Fifteenth' was absolutely stunning, it resonated strongly throughout the entire unit. I want to thank you for expressing the sentiments of our soldiers!"
The two stepped into the elevator, with the invisible Zhao Liang following closely behind. Director Fu pressed the button for the 16th floor and watched the elevator ascend before speaking seriously to Fang Yang: "President Fang, we would like to conduct an exclusive interview with you this time. We hope you can cooperate. This interview will be broadcast on our channel along with 'The Moon on the Fifteenth.' If there is anything you cannot say, you can tell us in advance, and we will cooperate."
Fang Yang took the interview details from Director Fu, glanced at them, and handed them back to Director Fu, saying, "It's alright, there's nothing I can't say. Just do as you ask!"
The elevator beeped, indicating that the 16th floor had been reached. Director Fu led Fang Yang to the studio and called over the makeup artist. "Let's do Fang's makeup first. The interview is about to begin, so hurry up!"
Fang Yang was ushered into the dressing room by the makeup artist and sat in front of a large mirror. The makeup artist applied makeup to his face, which he was extremely uncomfortable with, but he had no choice but to endure it for the sake of the makeup effect.
Zhao Liang, the invisible man, found a stool and sat down without saying a word. He took out his phone and started watching videos, thoroughly enjoying himself. Even when someone noticed him, seeing that he wasn't bothering anyone, no one paid any attention to him.
When Fang Yang came out after getting her makeup done, she was invited by a handsome young man to sit in the center of the studio. There was also a pretty young woman in the room. The handsome young man introduced himself first: "Hello, Ms. Fang. I am Hai Ning, the host of the program. This beautiful lady is my partner, Xin Yue. Today, the two of us will be doing this interview with you."
Xin Yue smiled and said, "President Fang, this is the list of interviews we will be conducting with you later. Please take a look and see if there is anything that would be inappropriate. If so, please let us know and we will remove it from the list."
Fang Yang took it and saw that it was the list that Director Fu had shown him earlier. Out of politeness, he looked at it carefully again. "No problem, you can ask any questions."
"Alright, Mr. Fang, there are still a few minutes before the interview recording starts. If you need to, you can stretch your legs or have a drink of water. Don't worry, this interview will be very relaxed!"
Fang Yang waved his hand, "It's okay, the interview can start anytime, and I don't need anything."
Haining nodded, took the microphone, earphones, and microphone and handed them to Fang Yang. Seeing that Fang Yang was ready, the director's countdown came through the earphones, "Attention all departments, countdown 5-4-3-2-1, start!"
As the lights focused on Fang Yang, Hai Ning, and Xin Yue, they sat on three sofas, each holding a microphone, and the interview officially began!
