Peninsula: Starting with a silly childhood friend!

Liu Baiyuan, who had just arrived at the recording studio, did not notice the nine people at first.

He was looking around curiously, after all, it was his first time in a recording studio, and everything was new and exciting.

The director, who was giving instructions, quickly noticed that Tzuyu's gaze was not on him at all. He frowned slightly, turned his head and followed her gaze, immediately locking onto a man who was somewhat unfamiliar to him.

Liu Baiyuan was dressed casually today. Although he was the producer, he didn't need to do anything. The director was in charge of the whole thing on set, and he just needed to slack off.

Hmm... I wonder what Chou Tzu-yu feels like to the touch.

Chou Tzu-yu: ? ? ? Which fish do you want to touch?

For this reason, his outfit today focused on comfort: a cool T-shirt paired with knee-length shorts, and a light sun-protective jacket. Combined with his handsome face that didn't need much styling, and his thin-rimmed glasses, he exuded a sunny, masculine vibe.

That's why, seeing Liu Baiyuan acting like he was on vacation, the director immediately labeled him as "safe."

Of course, this safety is from the perspective of identity. After all, judging from his age and clothing, Liu Baiyuan doesn't look like someone who would threaten his identity as a director.

Looking at this pretty boy's appearance, the director then turned to look at Tzuyu and the rest of TWICE, and a feeling of displeasure welled up inside him.

Perhaps because of his own physique, he felt particularly displeased with Liu Baiyuan's strong and muscular build.

"You! Where did you come from?! Don't you know we're filming here?!"

Hearing the loud voice, Liu Baiyuan frowned in confusion and looked in the direction of the sound, but his gaze only fell on the nine members of TWICE standing at the very back.

As for directing? Sorry, I'd rather not.

A smile appeared on his face as he strode towards the group.

"You guys are here so early."

Seeing the group of people who seemed to be filming, he jokingly made a comment, but soon he noticed that the expressions on their faces seemed a little strange.

Especially Sana Minatozaki and Mina Mine, who kept winking and making faces at him...

Liu Baiyuan smiled, but the director next to him couldn't smile. Clearly, the other party's attitude of ignoring him made him furious.

Ever since he joined JYP thanks to his uncle's connections, no one has ever dared to disrespect him like this on set!

"Damn it! Didn't you hear me talking to you?!"

The director's roar rang in Liu Baiyuan's ears.

The latter finally realized that the voice seemed to be speaking to him, and turned his head in confusion.

To his bewilderment, Liu Baiyuan didn't actually see him at first glance. The 1.8-meter-tall Liu Baiyuan could only vaguely see the top of the 'potato mine' director's head when looking straight ahead.

If you really want to see this director who's less than 1.7 meters tall, you'll have to lower your head...

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, I didn't notice your height at first. May I ask who you are...?"

Liu Baiyuan looked at the 'fat guy' in front of him with a slightly apologetic expression and asked him a question, but this once again stepped on his landmine.

"Damn it... I'm the director of this film set, what are you doing here?!"

"Oh, director, hello, I am..."

When Liu Baiyuan heard that the other person was the director on set, he was about to introduce himself when the director abruptly interrupted him.

"I don't care what you do, I'm the boss on this set!"

As he spoke, he pointed his finger at Liu Baiyuan's nose and began to curse:

"Damn it, look at you! Not wearing your uniform, not wearing your name tag, and you're still chasing after celebrities right in front of me while I'm reprimanding you! Don't you have any respect for rules? Don't you even know who I am as a director?!"

The director assumed he was an employee of one of the lower groups, so he immediately issued a "verdict" to him.

"Stageman! Take him out! If he doesn't know the rules, he shouldn't stay in my group!"

Hearing the director's words, Liu Baiyuan frowned slightly. In fact, Liu Baiyuan had already been unhappy when this "potato mine" pointed his finger at his nose...

"Director, don't you know who I am?"

"I don't care who you are, this is a film set, I'm the director! My words are law! My rules are the rules!"

"I am the producer of TWICE's music video."

"So what if you're the producer..."

The director was interrupted halfway through his sentence when the unfinished sentence suddenly stuck in his throat: "Producer... he just said producer, right?"

The director was stunned for a long time, his eyes filled with confusion. The boy in front of him looked to be at most a recent college graduate. How could he be a producer?

Even if you came to work as a laborer on the film set, you might not be hired.

"It seems the director is still a little skeptical."

Liu Baiyuan looked at the director in front of him expressionlessly. Although he said that, judging from his expression, he didn't seem to care much about whether he believed the director or not.

Just then, the commotion attracted the attention of those outside the recording studio.

It's worth mentioning that there was a familiar face among the crowd outside – it was TWICE's manager.

At first, she didn't pay attention, but when she saw that the two people confronting each other were Liu Baiyuan and the director, she realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Damn it! We're finished!"

The agent rushed forward immediately, just as Liu Baiyuan finished speaking.

"Director-nim, this is indeed the producer sent by the company this time. Because the president-nim is busy with official duties, this matter was handed over to him. This is also the producer of our comeback title track."

The agent quickly introduced Liu Baiyuan, and the director, upon hearing the agent's words, realized that the producer was also acting as the executive producer...

His heart immediately calmed down. He had indeed been startled, because Park Jin-young had always been the producer of TWICE. This sudden change made him wonder if the person in front of him had some kind of background.

Thinking this, his expression quickly changed again. He looked Liu Baiyuan up and down, then glanced at the nine members of TWICE, and slowly said again, "I didn't realize that this producer is so young and promising. I was a little angry just now and made a fool of myself in front of the producer."

After saying that, he turned and left, returning to behind the monitor. He picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "TWICE! Get ready, let's do it again!"

"Producer, find a seat. You're blocking the camera's view by standing there."

Seeing the director's attitude, Liu Baiyuan couldn't help but show a slightly unnatural expression. At the same time, he also noticed the pleading look Zhou Ziyu was giving him...

Before he could think it through, his agent pulled him back and whispered:

"I'm sorry, Producer, this director's attitude was really not good. I apologize on his behalf. Please rest here for a while. I'll go get you a bottle of water."

The agent found Liu Baiyuan a seat and let him rest. Upon hearing this, Liu Baiyuan stopped arguing with the director.

But just as he sat down to watch TWICE's recording, he witnessed once again why Tzuyu had that expression...
