As the two were chatting, celebrities or staff members passing by would occasionally greet them.
Li Tian followed Ah Xing and Huang Siqi to a lounge and continued their conversation.
"Boss, what are your plans next?" Ah Xing asked.
"I'm planning to film a fantasy drama. Didn't I already tell you about it before?"
"That fantasy drama you mentioned, huh? It's not bad. Hey boss, our Tianxia Band is starting a national tour in March, are you really not coming?"
Ah Xing wasn't interested in that fantasy drama; his top priority was the national tour that started in March.
Li Tian felt helpless; why didn't he want to participate?
But when he saw the chaos in the Emerald Kingdom, he felt helpless.
I'm in no condition to continue singing right now!
If this is so powerful even when transmitted via Bluetooth, imagine if it were used for live streaming or a concert...
Li Tian estimated that if the audience members who came to his concert came, wouldn't they all turn into thugs?
Wen Nanshan would have to fight to the death!
"Well, I'm a bit unavailable right now. Didn't I tell you? My vocal cords are indeed badly injured. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had to perform pure music at this year's Spring Festival Gala!"
Ah Xing sighed helplessly when he realized he still couldn't persuade Li Tian.
"Boss, our fans are really clamoring for your comeback! I think you should really consider it!"
Li Tian nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely rejoin the band once I'm all better here!"
"Well, that's all we can do for now. Sigh! How did you get your vocal cords injured?"
Ah Xing couldn't understand why Li Tiansheng had injured his vocal cords.
She was fine before, but her voice has been bad ever since she was kidnapped and brought back.
Could it be that the eldest brother didn't get his kidneys cut, but rather his vocal cords?
But he had never heard of anything like vocal cord dysplasia!
At this moment, Cheng Jiasheng walked over. Seeing that the two seemed to have something to say, Ah Xing took Huang Siqi and left.
"Director Li! Are you sure you're not going to perform on stage?" Cheng Jiasheng asked.
"Since you've already finalized the program, I won't cause you any more trouble!"
Cheng Jiasheng didn't believe this at all.
You can easily cut in line for the Spring Festival Gala, but now you're causing me trouble with the Lantern Festival Gala, which is only a little below?
I think you didn't even care about our Lantern Festival Gala, did you?
However, Cheng Jiasheng did not say this. Instead, he said, "That's such a pity. So many viewers are looking forward to seeing your performance."
Li Tianxin said that if she went on stage, the audience would be happy.
Those old guys are about to start to worry.
He had just caused chaos in the Jade Kingdom, and now he had to sing at the Lantern Festival Gala.
Can those old guys' hearts handle it?
"It's alright, it's alright. Oh, by the way, about that 'Legend of the White Snake' I told you about, when do you have time to meet with the actors?"
Upon hearing Li Tian's words, Cheng Jiasheng immediately beamed with joy.
He knew his time was about to come; with the fame of successfully directing the Spring Festival Gala, he was certain that making "The Legend of the White Snake" would boost box office sales.
"Well, Director Li, I'm available anytime, you can make the decision!"
Li Tian nodded and said, "Okay, let's start preparing after the Lantern Festival!"
"Okay, whatever you say. By the way, Director Li, from what you just said, have you finalized the cast for this production?"
Cheng Jiasheng knew that Li Tianyu's leading lady was Tang Yi, and that Tang Yi had been the leading lady in the recent few movies.
Therefore, in Cheng Jiasheng's mind, Tang Yi would definitely be the female lead in this drama.
So now we don't know who the male lead is?
"Yes, it's all settled. The investors, actors, crew, and even you as the director are all confirmed!"
"So, I don't know who these actors are?"
Cheng Jiasheng felt he should ask for clarification first, so he could be prepared.
"Old Cheng! Have you ever seen the opera version of 'The Legend of the White Snake'?"
Instead of answering Cheng Jiasheng's question directly, Li Tian asked Cheng Jiasheng a question in return.
"Hmm, I haven't actually seen this before. I'm not particularly interested in traditional opera, but I know the plot very well!"
"Yes, that's right. The male and female leads I chose are the actors from the opera 'The Legend of the White Snake'?"
"Huh? The female lead isn't Tang Yi?"
Cheng Jiasheng looked at Li Tian in surprise. He thought the female lead would be Tang Yi, but he didn't expect Li Tian to use a newcomer.
This was indeed beyond his expectations. How could his favorite leading lady change so suddenly?
"No, Lao Cheng, I'm going to tell you something inside, but don't tell anyone yet, since they haven't officially announced it!" Li Tian said mysteriously to Cheng Jiasheng.
Cheng Jiasheng had no idea what Li Tian was going to say, and he was being so mysterious.
"Yes! Please go ahead!"
Li Tian looked around to make sure no one was watching before saying, "Tang Yi might be retiring from the entertainment industry!"
"What?"
Cheng Jiasheng stared wide-eyed at Li Tian in astonishment; the news had indeed shocked him.
It's worth noting that Tang Yi is currently at the peak of her career in the entertainment industry, so popular that it's impossible for her to become even more popular.
With two consecutive films entering the top ten at the box office, this year's Best Actress award has already been decided.
How can someone just retire from the entertainment industry like that?
If someone else had said this, Cheng Jiasheng might not have believed it, but now it was Li Tian who was saying it.
This greatly amplifies the credibility of his statement; he believes Li Tian would not make baseless accusations.
"Yes, the news is true, it's just that it hasn't been officially announced yet!" Li Tian said to Cheng Jiasheng with certainty.
