Entertainment: I just want to be the boss behind the scenes

Chapter 49: Wouldn't it be sad no matter who you choose?

The first requirement to be an actor is to be able to act, this is the point of view that Meng Bai has always insisted on.

Unfortunately, not everyone in the industry agrees.

"My personal advice is that if you really want to be an actor in the future, you'd better find an acting training class to learn." Meng Bai said sincerely: "At least, you have to understand the basics of acting first."

Li Yitong nodded: "Okay, after the New Year comes, I will tidy up the teahouse and then find a performance training class to study."

"If necessary, I can introduce you to the advanced training class of our Central Academy of Drama." Meng Bai said: "I promise to find you the most suitable teacher."

"Hmm - I heard them say that the acting training class at Beijing Film Academy seems to be better?"

"Nonsense!" Meng Bai knocked his teacup against the wall and said seriously, "Don't listen to the nonsense of those outsiders. In terms of acting, is Beijing Film Academy qualified to compete with our Central Academy of Drama?"

Li Yitong smiled teasingly: "I didn't expect that our teacher Meng has such a strong sense of honor for his alma mater."

"Ha, do you know what it means to be an outstanding graduate of the Central Academy of Drama?"

"Wow, that's amazing..." Li Yitong exclaimed perfunctorily, raised her teacup and said, "From now on, I'll have to ask Teacher Meng to take care of me."

"Take care of me..." Meng Bai took a sip of tea, leaned back, and said in an ambiguous tone: "Just saying 'please' won't do."

"Oh?"

Li Yitong's eyes curved into crescents. She smiled and stood up to sit next to Meng Bai. She raised her face to Meng Bai's eyes, stared at him intently and said, "What else do you want, Mr. Meng?"

Looking at the pretty smile in front of him, Meng Bai subconsciously glanced down, then snorted and turned to drink his tea.

Li Yitong was stunned. She didn't understand what he meant and subconsciously looked down.

There was a heater in the room, and the temperature was high. She was not wearing a coat, but only a thin white shirt. The top button of the shirt was not buttoned, and from a higher angle, one could vaguely see her fair skin and slightly raised flatness.

She finally reacted, and her cheeks flushed instantly. She shrank back, crossed her arms over her chest, and glared at Meng Bai in shame and anger, "You... hooligan!"

"Hey, girl, come closer, I just took a look out of biological instinct."

"I'm not talking about you, it's me... humph!"

"what?"

Looking at the angry Li Yitong, Meng Bai thought for a moment and suddenly realized what she was angry about. He couldn't help but said happily: "So you are... Oh, it doesn't matter. This kind of thing is a talent, there is no need to care so much."

"Haha." Li Yitong rolled her eyes: "Anyway, you men all like big breasts."

"Don't be so absolute. There are always exceptions." Meng Bai said, "That's not my standard."

"Then what do you like?"

"I like beautiful ones."

"..."

Li Yitong was speechless. Is there anyone who likes ugly people?

With a turn of her eyes, she said to Meng Bai with ill intentions: "So, do you like me?"

"I like it." Meng Bai said calmly without any hesitation.

"Ah?" Li Yitong was obviously a little confused by the other party's straightforwardness: "Friend, are you so direct?"

"Why should I be so polite?" Meng Bai didn't care at all: "There are so many beautiful girls I like, not just you."

"...Thank you for thinking of me in such a big fish pond."

"You're welcome." "I'm not praising you!" Li Yitong roared, and then said angrily: "Scumbag!"

Meng Bai sighed: "Alas, I was sincere to the world, but the world misled me."

"Don't try to make excuses for yourself. The people won't believe your lies!"

"As long as you believe it," Meng Bai said with a smile, then stood up and said to Li Yitong, "Let's go."

"Where?"

"To celebrate the success of my new drama and the closing of your store, I'm treating you to a feast." Meng Bai made an inviting gesture: "A scumbag is treating you to a feast, do you dare to go?"

"Go! Why are you afraid?" Li Yitong said with a cute and vicious expression on her face: "I will choose the most expensive one to get rid of the harm for the people."

"Okay, I just happened to be out of poverty and became rich recently, so you can choose."

"Tsk tsk, what a rich person's face." Li Yitong shook her head in disdain and asked, "By the way, are you here to see Huahua today? She went home for the holiday right after her exams."

Meng Bai then remembered that he had come here for business today. Seeing Li Yitong's curiosity, he explained, "I have some financial work to do for cooperative account sharing. I originally wanted to ask her if there were any suitable senior brothers and sisters to recommend."

Hua Yan is from Central University of Finance and Economics, which is a perfect match for her career. Although this girl herself is a poor student, it should be no problem to ask her to recommend a suitable senior.

But since she had gone home for the winter vacation, Meng Bai was not in a hurry to contact her. Anyway, the revenue settlement of Leshi.com would have to wait until after the Chinese New Year.

Everyone is going home to celebrate the New Year.
-
Blue Island, Liuting Airport.

Meng Bai dragged his suitcase out of the airport entrance and saw his parents coming to pick him up from afar.

"What took you so long to come out?"

When Mother Meng saw Meng Bai coming out, her face lit up immediately. She walked over a few steps, holding her son's arm, and "complained" excitedly.

"It took a while to get the luggage." Meng Bai raised his arm and put his arm around Mother Meng's shoulders, saying with a smile, "Mom, your son has finally come back, shouldn't you give him a hug first?"

"Why are you hugging me? You're such a grown-up. If you don't mind my ugly bumps, I would complain about my ugly teeth." Mother Meng stretched the corners of her mouth and hugged Meng Bai with a look of "disdain" on her face.

After hanging out with his mother, Meng Bai looked at his father Meng standing beside him.

"Did you have a smooth journey?" Father Meng asked as he took the suitcase.

"It's OK, but I haven't been on a plane for many years, so I'm a little unfamiliar with the procedures."

There is no high-speed rail in Landao yet, so if you want to come back, you have to take a plane, train or long-distance bus.

In previous years, Meng Bai usually came back by train, but this year he left late and he was too lazy to squeeze with the crowd at the train station. Besides, he had enough money for a plane ticket, so he just flew back.

"It seems that things are going well there this year." Father Meng said as he drove after getting into the car at the airport.

"It's OK. A website picked up a script and gave me some money." Meng Bai said casually, "It can barely be considered the start of my career."

"Wow, wow, that's amazing." Mother Meng said sarcastically in the back seat, "He's so amazing, but he hasn't brought me a daughter-in-law in this whole year."

"Oh, Mom, I've just started my career, so I don't have the time to fall in love." Meng Bai said, "Besides, there are so many girls I like, whoever I choose, won't it make others sad?"

"...Mr. Meng, open the back window. I feel like vomiting." Mother Meng looked as if she was about to puke.

"What's wrong? Are you carsick?" Father Meng asked without turning his head.

"I'm dizzy, both of you!"
