The person who called was Xu Fei's agent, Li Hao.
Before Fang Xiaole came to Kyoto, Li Hao took the initiative to contact him and expressed Xu Fei's desire to join "My Daughter". He also enthusiastically stated that he would treat Fang Xiaole well after he arrived in Kyoto.
However, Fang Xiaole did not have a good impression of Li Hao. Firstly, he heard from Lin Yao that Xu Fei was almost forced to abort the child. Secondly, he felt that he could not see through Li Hao.
Fang Xiaole always had a hunch that if he interacted too closely with Li Hao, there would probably be no good results.
So after arriving in Kyoto, he never contacted Li Hao. Even when inviting guests was not going well in the past few days, he had no intention of visiting Xu Fei.
Unexpectedly, Li Hao called again.
"Hello, Director Fang. Sorry to bother you so late."
Li Hao's voice was still full of humility and smile, and he apologized sincerely right from the start.
"It's okay, Agent Li, what can I do for you?"
Fang Xiaole was not very good at dealing with this kind of smiling tiger type of guy, so he could only answer in a tone as calm as possible.
"I heard that Director Fang is in Kyoto?"
Li Hao asked directly.
"Yes, Agent Li, I'm in Kyoto on a business trip these past two days. I heard Xu Fei wasn't feeling well, so I didn't want to bother you."
Fang Xiaole was not surprised. It was normal for a capable agent like Li Hao to be well-informed.
When he mentioned that Xu Fei was in poor health, he was also implying that since your artist is already pregnant, you should just let her rest peacefully.
"Director Fang is so kind. Xu Fei's physical condition has improved very well recently. She turned down other invitations and made time specifically to participate in Director Fang's new program.
Director Fang, since you are in Kyoto, we must treat you well. How about we make an appointment?"
Li Hao said with a smile, obviously having decided on Fang Xiaole's program.
"Manager Li, you're so polite. How about tomorrow?"
Others have already said this, and it would be a bit unkind for Fang Xiaole to refuse again. If it gets out, it will only lead to gossip.
The two-time Golden Melody Award winner for Best Female Singer volunteered to participate in your weekend 9 o'clock show, which is not the most popular one, and yet you still act pretentiously. Isn't that too arrogant?
"Okay, I'll let you know when I've booked a place?"
"Okay, thank you, Agent Li."
"We are honored that Director Fang is willing to do us the honor of seeing you. We won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."
"Goodbye, Agent Li."
Fang Xiaole put down the phone and couldn't help but let out a sigh. It was really tiring to deal with such a scheming but always polite person.
Lin Yao also heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Sister Xu has been pregnant for almost two months. Is there any risk for her to participate in the show?"
"I have this concern too, but there are many artists in the industry who insist on working while pregnant. This is not a reason to reject them. Anyway, let's meet with Li Hao and Xu Fei tomorrow and talk about it."
Fang Xiaole pondered for a moment and couldn't make a decision for the time being.
If the station knew that a female artist of Xu Fei's level was actively begging to participate in the show, they would definitely agree immediately. Moreover, now that the work of inviting guests is unfavorable, there is no reason to reject Xu Fei.
After all, the program team has been divided into two groups for several days, and only Xu Zhenzhen and Zhao Yue have been confirmed. There are still four guests missing, and there is less than a week left.
It's very stressful.
"How about...I'll join in too."
Lin Yao knew Fang Xiaole's anxiety. She was silent for a moment and suddenly spoke.
Fang Xiaole turned to look at her in astonishment, then raised his hand and stroked her delicate face:
"What nonsense! Your schedule is so tight, how can you spare the time?"
Lin Yao pouted and whispered, "Isn't your show about following female artists' daily lives? Your crew will follow me, and I'll be working and recording the show at the same time. Is that okay for a while?"
Fang Xiaole was stunned. He hadn't expected Lin Yao to have studied her own program so thoroughly. She had completely grasped the essence of "My Daughter," which was to follow daily life. However, he still shook his head.
"This program is inviting the artist's father to participate..."
He stopped mid-sentence.
Lin Yao was stunned for a moment, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, and then she lowered her head:
"I'm sorry, I'm so useless and can't help you."
My father hates the entertainment industry so much that he is lucky enough not to arrest me. How could he possibly agree to participate in a variety show?
"Don't think too much, don't worry, everything will be fine." Fang Xiaole put his arm around Lin Yao's shoulders and comforted her softly.
"Um."
The two sat on the sofa, leaning against each other.
His show will be good, and Lin Yao's relationship with her father will be good too.
I hope so...
......
......
The next day, Zhao Yue's agent contacted Fang Xiaole early in the morning. The conversation went smoothly and it was soon decided that Zhao Yue would join "My Daughter" as a permanent guest.
Hong Sanshi has a good relationship with his father-in-law and successfully persuaded Zhao Yue's father to participate in the show.
As for the remuneration, Zhao Yue only asked for two-thirds of what she would have earned for participating in other programs, which is far lower than the asking price for a movie queen.
After the contract signed by Zhao Yue and the program crew was sent back to Apple TV, the program crew staff who stayed behind said that Director Chen's face was in high spirits the whole day and he even treated everyone to milk tea in the afternoon.
Fang Xiaole also received a call from Deputy Director Li Xueke. The leader expressed his affirmation of his fruitful work and tactfully reminded him that there were only three days left before the deadline for confirming the guests. He encouraged him to keep up the good work and strive to complete the task on time.
