Also, previously I translated HY’s title as general manager, which I’m  now going to change to president because it will make things easier to understand.

Recap HY general manager change to president

HC director to … mystery lol

Shen Qingshu rested at home for two days. After enough rest, Han Cheng went to the movies with him as promised.

He did not take Shen Qingshu to the cinema he had been to, but took him to a new cinema.

There was no one in the cinema, only the staff responsible for making popcorn and drinks handed them their products.

Shen Qingshu wondered, “Why is it so empty?”

“I booked this time period.” Han Cheng laughed, “so that no one will recognize you, and you don’t need to hide.”

Shen Qingshu just remembered what he said before, that he would reserve the whole movie theatre. So this is what he meant.

He smiled and took the popcorn from Han Cheng’s hand and walked in with him.

Without ticket inspectors, they walked all the way to their seats smoothly.

Han Cheng made a phone call. After a short time, the movie screen slowly came to life. Shen Qingshu sat on the sofa and saw the golden dragon sign representing the beginning of the movie.

It was not the first time that he saw “Ephemera” with Han Cheng, but he was still excited and full of novelty and expectation.

Han Cheng held him and watched with him.

The two people enjoyed the sweet time quietly, and did not leave in a hurry when the movie was finished, but watched it again.

Han Cheng snuck up to Shen Qingshu’s ear and said to him, “My parents praised me for being good-looking on camera.”

“You are really good-looking,” Shen Qingshu said with a smile.

He looked at Han Cheng on the screen, and then turned to look at Han Cheng beside him.

“Really handsome.” Shen Qingshu leaned close to his face and kissed him.

Han Cheng hugged him, his eyes full of smiles.

After watching the movie, the two people ate out together, and then returned home calmly.

Although Shen Qingshu has finished most of his publicity work, the movie is still being released, so he still has other jobs one after another.

Fortunately, it is not as busy as July when he had no time to go home.

Han Cheng was worried about him, and advised him not to rush home at the end of each activity, but to rest for a night in the local area and then come back.

Shen Qingshu refused, “It’s okay.I can see you sooner if I come back sooner.”

“Not tired?”

“Then you need to coax me more.” Shen Qingshu laughed. “Just say something nice to me and kiss me more.”

Hearing his words, Han Cheng couldn’t help hugging him, kissed him on the ear and smiled softly.

At the end of August, the box office of “Ephemera” exceeded 4.5 billion, and the number of viewers was basically saturated. In addition to the release of new films and the reduction of showings, the future growth ability was not large. The ticket software gave the final box office forecast: 5 billion.

Shen Qingshu is very satisfied with this achievement, even a little shocked- the box office of “Ephemera” is even higher than that of “Plundering time”.

This genre is not as popular as family films, no one in the crew expected to achieve such a result.

Therefore, everyone was very happy at the celebration banquet.

Shen Qingshu, as the initiator of the film, was coaxed to give a speech.

He looked at the people in front of him, and his heart was full of joy. At the end, he could only say, “Thank you. Thanks to everyone here, and everyone who is not present who made efforts for this film. This achievement belongs to everyone. Thank you!”

Everyone applauded, and Shen Qingshu almost burst into tears.

Before this film, he didn’t know most of the people here, but now they have completed a movie together and realised a wish together.

“Ephemera” belongs to him and everyone involved in this project. He is very grateful and touched.

Seeing that he was about to cry, Bai Xuege quickly teased him with a few words. Shen Qingshu stabilised a little and gave him a teary smile.

They ate, drank and bonded together.

At the end of the banguet, many people who had not added Shen Qingshu’s WeChat before boldly added his WeChat, and said to him, “I will contact you later.”

Shen Qingshu nodded and agreed with a good temper.

He watched the curtain fall, and the people around him left one after another. It was unknown whether they could get together next time.

“Congratulations.” Mei Ruo said to him, “You are a good actor. Thank you for inviting me to direct this film.”

She is different from Shen Qingshu. Her life is half finished and she has entered a period of burnout. So she has no youthful impulse or deep emotions  towards many things. However, when she sees Shen Qingshu and his passion and love, she also seems to be stained with light again.

“I wish you a bright future,” she said to her younger generation.

“Thank you,” said Shen Qingshu, “I also wish you all the best in your life and career. Thank you very much for being willing to direct this film this time. Without you, there would be no “Ephemera” now.”

“I have always been curious about one thing.” Mei Ruo approached him. “You once said that no one is more suitable for Su Qing than you. You are very confident, and you are also very interested in this film. Even for this film, you went from an actor to a producer, what is your relationship with Su Qing?”

“Did you really create this movie just because you appreciate the original novel?”

Shen Qingshu was stunned for a moment, and didn’t know how to answer.

Mei Ruo smiled and said, “Did you create Su Qing? So you not only want the right to produce, but also the right to write the screenplay. That’s why you kept helping other people sort out the plot and psychological state within scenes, and help them add or subtract lines, am I right?”

Shen Qingshu didn’t expect that she would be so insightful. Thinking about it, a director like her has seen so many people, and her eyes must have been trained.

Shen Qingshu smiled without denying, “You are very perceptive.”

Meiruo nodded slightly, with a gentle smile on her face, without showing any surprise.

“If you want to learn to be a director, you’re welcome to come to me anytime.”

Shen Qingshu was surprised, when he was filming, he did plan to steal sponge off teachings. But at that time, he had too many things to be responsible for. So even if he said it to Mei Ruo and she agreed, because of the lack of time, he didn’t learn much. Unexpectedly, she still remembered and was willing to teach him.

“Thank you.” Shen Qingshu said excitedly, “This is very kind of you director Mei.”

Mei Ruo just looked at him with a smile, then turned around and said, “I’m leaving. See you next time on the red carpet.”

“Yes.” Shen Qingshu replied, “I’ll see you off.”

When he sent Mei Ruo out of the hotel, Bai Xuege approached him and asked, “What did you say to director Mei?”

“She found out that I was the author of Ephemera,” Shen Qingshu said.

Bai Xuege was shocked, “How did she find out?”

“It’s probably a director’s insight,” Shen Qingshu guessed.

Bai Xuege clicked his tongue, she’s really sensitive.

“Hey, are you going to record a variety show soon?” Bai Xuege asked him.

Shen Qingshu confirmed, “Are you coming?”

“Why don’t you take me?” said Bai Xuege lazily

Shen Qingshu laughed and said, “Okay, I’ll go see you after I finish recording the variety show.”

“En.” Bai Xuege agreed.

Closer to the variety show recording, the program team continued to announce other guests.

The director contacted Shen Qingshu and asked him: [Teacher Shen, what is your friend’s Weibo? When the program team wants to promote later, what should we do about him?]

Shen Qingshu turned and asked Han Cheng, “Have you registered your side account yet?”

“All done.” Han Cheng showed him directly, it simply said Han Cheng.

“Don’t you add a certification?” Shen Qingshu asked him.

Han Cheng thought about it, and thought he should, but…

“I’ll add it tomorrow,” he said to Shen Qingshu.

“Why?” Shen Qingshu asked curiously.

Han Cheng smiled mysteriously. “You will know then.”

Shen Qingshu: ? ? ?

Shen Qingshu felt more curious.

Han Yu had just arrived at the office the next morning, before he finished reading his documents, he heard a knock at the door. The next second, his didi came in.

“What’s the matter?”

“A small matter, a small matter.” Han Cheng approached his desk.

“Oh?” Han Yu raised his eyebrows and put down the document in his hand. “Let me hear it.”

“I want to change my title.”

Han Yu looked at him and nodded, “I have no objection, but our dear old father hasn’t abdicated yet. I can’t be promoted, so you can’t take my seat.”

“I don’t want your seat. Give me a new title, such as vice president.” Han Cheng has already thought of a strategy. “Isn’t this simple?”

It’s quite simple, but…

“Why do you suddenly want to change your title?”

“I’m going to record variety shows with QingQing in a few days, so later I will give the program team a Weibo account for them to @. Giving them the title of director is not impressive enough. Since I can’t be the president, I can still be a vice president.”

Han Yu laughed, “So you want face.”

“It’s not that I want face, but that I have to give QingQing face.”

“You don’t know,” he explained to Han Yu, “some of these fans treat themselves as mother-in-law’s. Their son can fall in love, but they must be superb and deserving of him. If I don’t raise my status a little, when we make our official announcement, his fans will refuse to accept me, and then stop being fans one after another.”

After all, Han Cheng has been undercover for so long in the fan club. He is in the same group as them every day. Together they call in support of Shen Qingshu everyday. In fact, fans who support him in every work are quite considerate .

He didn’t want them to be disappointed by Shen Qingshu because he broke the hearts of these little girls after the official announcement.

Since they think that their gege is the best and deserves the best, then he will give him the best, since he can. In this way, they will probably find it easier to accept.

Han Yu thinks that his didi is really gentle and kind. If it was him who fell in love, then he would have to worry about whether others would accept it or not?

As long as he and his lover have accepted it. What qualifications do other people have to intervene in his love?

However, Han Cheng is not him. Han Cheng is always willing to take care of others’ feelings and treat the world gently.

That’s why he is the cutest person in their family.

“En, I will announce at the meeting next Monday that I will give you the vice president position and then relocate your office.”

“The office change is not needed. I like my current office and there is no need to change it.”

“Okay, as long as you like it.”

“Go back and tell Dad about it.” Han Cheng reminded him, “Don’t let him be jealous again.”

“I will inform him,” said Han Yu with a smile.

Han Cheng: … The word “inform” is very expressive.

“Let me tell him,” Han Cheng said helplessly, otherwise he is afraid his old father will have to shed tears at the Yangtze River again tonight.
