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

Chapter 507

"Ding-ding-ding-ding~ Ding-ding-ding-ding~"

In the dim cabin, the classic Apple ringtone echoed in the room, waking up Yang Chaoyue from her sleep.

Following the ringing sound, she reached for her phone, opened her eyes with difficulty to look at the caller's name, answered the call and put it to her ear: "Sister Meng, good morning."

"It's already past ten o'clock, almost noon, and you still say good morning?" Meng Ziyi's voice came from the other end of the phone, "What time did you go to bed last night? Why aren't you awake yet?"

"Is it almost noon?"

Yang Chaoyue sat up from the bed in a daze: "I also forgot what time I went to bed, it's all your uncle's fault..."

As soon as she said this, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have said something wrong and immediately stopped talking.

However, as soon as the words came out, how could the other party not hear it? Meng Ziyi's tone instantly rose eight degrees: "What uncle? You were with my uncle last night?"

Yang Chaoyue was now fully awake. Listening to her best friend's surprised voice on the other end of the phone, her brain was working quickly as she thought about how to make up for it.

"What are you thinking about? I mean, my schedule was already quite full, and then my boss suddenly assigned me a job, so I had to stay up late and work overtime to catch the plane."

"Is that so?" Meng Ziyi asked half-doubtfully.

Objectively speaking, there seemed to be nothing wrong with this explanation. But subjectively, she felt something was wrong.

"That's it, what else?"

Yang Chaoyue deliberately said in a teasing tone: "Why, do you really want to call me little aunt?"

"Go away! Stop it." Meng Ziyi snorted, "I'm telling you, stay away from my uncle. He's a playboy. If you keep hanging around in front of him, be careful that he might eat you up one day."

Actually, I've already eaten it...

Yang Chaoyue grinned and said silently in his heart.

She changed the subject: "Why are you calling me?"

"Oh, I almost forgot. Xiaoye and I made an appointment to go out and play today, and I wanted to ask if you would like to join us in Jingbei." Meng Ziyi said, "But since you are busy, forget it, let's wait until next time."

"You didn't look for someone when I was here, but now that I'm gone you're looking for someone else, humph!"

"Oh, I was busy before, and I just happened to be free today, so I asked you out right away."

"You made an appointment with someone else before you came to me. You are not sincere to me at all!"

Yang Chaoyue's half-true and half-false "tantrum" caused Meng Ziyi to comfort her again and again, until she agreed to various "conditions", and then she was coaxed into calm down.

After this commotion, the "slip of the tongue" just now was forgotten.

After ending the call, Yang Chaoyue looked at the phone and muttered quietly: "Both of them are playboys, hum!"

After getting dressed and walking out of the cabin, the moment you open the door you are greeted by the sunshine and sea breeze, which makes you feel refreshed.

When we arrived at the deck, we saw Meng Bai standing in front of a barbecue grill, turning the ingredients quite skillfully.

She walked over. The man turned around when he heard the footsteps and smiled: "Are you awake? I thought you were going to sleep for a while."

After saying that, he turned down the heat, wiped his hands, walked over, and looked the girl up and down: "Are you okay?"

"Don't worry, boss. It's okay."

Yang Chaoyue said, bending his arms and making a gesture: "I'm very strong...hiss——"

She couldn't help frowning when she was halfway through her words - her legs felt a little weak and there was a little pain in her lower body.

"Why, this young warrior is no longer capable?"

Meng Bai teased her, but still gently helped her sit down beside him and poured her a glass of warm water.

"thank you boss."

"Why don't you change your name? I feel it's a bit weird to keep calling you boss." "Change your name?"

Yang Chaoyue blinked, and a cunning look suddenly flashed in her eyes: "Then... little uncle?"

"puff--"

Meng Bai almost spit out the water in his mouth. After swallowing it for a long time, he turned around and looked at him: "What did you just shout?"

"Uncle! Didn't you ask me to change my name?"

"So you'll change to this?"

"I'm Sister Meng's friend, so it's only fitting that I call her that."

Yang Chaoyue said, deliberately changing her tone and continued to shout: "Uncle, uncle, uncle..."

"Stop, stop, stop!" Meng Bai stopped her, "Change to a more normal one, you can call me brother."

"If I call you brother, then I will be of a different generation than Sister Meng."

"Then you can also call me dad." Meng Bai raised his eyebrows, "I remember you were fine without calling me dad last night."

Yang Chaoyue's cheeks flushed instantly, and she couldn't help but recall the various terrible scenes from last night. She stammered, "Then, I'll just call you brother."

Meng Bai also recalled what happened last night.

And it has to be said that Xiao Chaoyue's strong physique also adds a lot of new gameplay to the game.

He can, he can.

Every time he sees the girl's innocent face filled with an alluring blush, Meng Bai can't help but want to start the next round.

Thinking of this, he felt the heat beginning to surge in his body again. He picked up Yang Chaoyue, who was still drinking water, and laid her flat on the table while she looked dazed.

"Old, uh, brother, I'm hungry, why don't we eat first."

"Lunch will have to wait a while, let's order some appetizers first."

……

It was not until noon on the third day that the yacht finally returned to the port after two days and two nights at sea. Yang Chaoyue held Meng Bai for a long time, and finally left with the team reluctantly.

But when she walked, her steps were a little strange. The assistant girl who came to pick her up saw this and had countless thoughts in her mind, but she wisely chose to turn a blind eye.

Meng Bai returned to work feeling refreshed, and first asked about the cooperation with the "Three-Body Universe". The Arclight team reported that everything was going well, but the equity handover would take some time.

He didn't push too much. Anyway, the film and television adaptation was already in preparation, and copyright development in other areas would take more time than one or two days, so there was no need to rush.

Before returning to Beijing, he talked to Xu Fang again. The widow had temporarily secured her position as chairman of Youzu by leveraging the momentum of her cooperation with ArcLight.

"Mr. Meng, are you really not going to consider investing in Youzu?" Xu Fang said with a smile, "I think Youzu will develop better in your hands than in mine."

"Don't worry, let's talk about it after the handover of the 'Three-Body Universe' is completed." Meng Bai laughed.

The gaming industry is also part of the entertainment sector, and it plays a very important role. Arclight has previously considered whether to enter the gaming industry as a derivative of film and television entertainment.

However, if you really want to do it, there is no need to go through Youzu. After all, this company mainly relies on marketing and promotion and does not have any core productivity.

Xu Fang also knew about her family's situation, so she didn't ask too many questions, but just thanked Meng Bai again.

After a day of rest in Shanghai, on the same day Meng Bai returned to northern Beijing, the nomination list for this year's Magnolia Awards was released.

Most of the nominated works are nothing special, but there are two eye-catching names in the nomination for "Best Actress".

[Best Actress nomination: Li Qin, "The Best Years".]

[Best Actress nomination: Li Yitong, The Rebel. ]
