Downstairs, Anko’s mother Sasaki Miko was also in the living room, sitting in the kotatsu reading a book. Seeing her daughter hurriedly turn on the TV to watch a program, she didn’t mind and casually asked, "Anko, when your dad gets back, we’re going out for dinner tonight. What do you want to eat?"
The entertainnt industry in Japan and Korea is more developed, and high school girls chasing idols is common. Plus, it’s Friday today, so there’s no worry about delaying howork, making it nothing to fuss over.
Sasaki Anko’s attention was slightly drawn: going out for dinner?
"I want to eat Matsuya’s beef rice bowl!"
She shouted back loudly, though her main focus was still on the TV. Dinner was important, but standing up for her idol was just as important!
She had already turned on the TV and quickly changed the channel to Asahi TV Station.
The Music Station on Asahi TV is truly a national program.
Her mother, Sasaki Miko, seeing the channel and the ti, imdiately guessed it and smiled, asking, "Are you watching Music Station? Who’s on this episode of Music Station?"
Sasaki Anko was scrolling through her idol’s Twitter and also stumbled upon various leaks about this episode of Music Station, "Looks like there’s Horikuchi Daisuke, Hero Band, and SK12."
"Horikuchi Daisuke? Is he still active now?" It had been a while since Sasaki Miko watched Music Station, and she was quite surprised, with a nostalgic expression, "Back when your dad and I were in school, Horikuchi Daisuke’s songs were the ones we listened to the most."

Yet, it’s inevitable for soone to stand up for their idol.
For example, Japanese high school student Sasaki Anko.
Seeing Shen Chenhe’s tweets, she felt indignant for her idol, "Chenhe-kun is just too kind-hearted. He obviously didn’t do anything wrong, yet he stepped forward and backed down. Isn’t that the fault of that person from Hua Country?"
A few girls sitting nearby heard her and curiously looked over, "Chenhe-kun, you an Shen Chenhe from teor Youth Group?"
"What happened with Shen Chenhe?"
The few people around all knew Shen Chenhe.
High school students in Japan and Korea are major fans of celebrities, especially in the more developed entertainnt industries of Japan and Korea, where the percentage of high school girls chasing idols is very high.

However, before reaching the hotel, he unexpectedly spotted a familiar face by the roadside.
Hmm, why is she here?
Wu Mu looked curiously at the figure standing at the door of a restaurant ahead.
It was Su ng, whom he had t a long ti ago in the first season of Star Agency.
She was standing beside a red Ferrari, looking angry and speaking to soone inside the car.
Wu Mu couldn’t see who was inside the Ferrari, but that person seed to have quite a temper as well, because after just a few words, they stepped on the gas and left Su ng standing there.
Leaving Su ng standing there, frowning as she watched the car drive away.
Wu Mu drove over with a slight smile, rolled down the window, and amusedly said, "Long ti no see, Little Su."
Su ng turned and looked in his direction, appearing a bit startled.
This was only their second eting in person.
But Su ng seed to be quite attentive to his situation, as Wu Mu often received feedback from her about his new songs on WeChat.
They didn’t chat much, mostly just simple remarks like how good the songs were.
Hmm, whether it’s a hater or a fan, at least they contributed to my views.
Wu Mu smiled and said, "Did your driver leave? Want to take you?"
Su ng hesitated slightly, "I’ll let my family know."
"Aunt Qing, you don’t need to co, yeah, my friend will give a ride back, okay, I got it."
After making the call, Su ng opened the passenger door of Wu Mu’s car and got in.
After confirming her destination, Wu Mu was quite curious, "Aren’t you from Shen City? How co you’re here?"
Su ng shook her head, "I am from Shen City, but my family also has a house here in Beijing."
She paused, with a rare smile on her face, "Just now we were also inside the venue, my friends wanted to cover their ears at your first song."
Wu Mu laughed, "That has nothing to do with , though; there was nothing wrong with my singing."
Wu Mu casually chatted with Su ng, quickly dropping her off at a large courtyard house not far from the Forbidden City in the Upper City District.
Hmm, confird, another Heavenly Dragon People.
Wu Mu was quite surprised, although from her usual deanor, it was clear Su ng’s family was pretty wealthy.
But he didn’t expect them to be this wealthy.
A courtyard like this is probably worth at least...
The owner can’t be seen for now, Yang Rongfa asked, "A lot of big directors and company bosses from the industry ca today, should I introduce you?"
For a typical industry insider, this is an opportunity.
It’s always good to know a few more people.
But... rembering the experience from the previous gathering, Yang Rongfa wisely chose to ask first.
Wu Mu shook his head, "No..."
But just halfway through shaking his head, his gaze swept over a figure in a small lounge, partially hidden by a partition, and paused slightly.
"Director Lin is here too?" Wu Mu asked Yang Rongfa.
The Director Lin he’s referring to is naturally not Lin Qingyue but her father, Lin Xueming.
Although Lin Qingyue could return tonight, she still had crew matters to attend to and wouldn’t be there.
Moreover, during his chat with Lin Qingyue in the morning, he ntioned he’d be attending this party, and if she were coming, she would have told him.
"Yes, Tang Wei and Xie Chunfang are also here." Yang Rongfa nodded.
Wu Mu’s mind turned slightly, knowing that these two are also big directors in the industry at the sa level as Lin Xueming, part of the top-tier professionals in the field.
However, he didn’t expect to befriend these directors or seek opportunities, so these two didn’t matter much to him.
But since Lin Xueming is here, it’s only proper to go say hi.
"I’ll go say hi to Director Lin." He stepped directly toward the small lounge area.
"Director Lin and the others are also there, do you want to go greet them?" Yang Rongfa leaned over and whispered.
As he spoke, he pointed his finger towards the small lounge next to the main guest hall.
The small lounge seed to be a common private eting place, separated in the middle by decorations, making it hard to see the full layout. It looked smaller compared to here.
With several sofas closer together, quite a few people were sitting there chatting.
Director Lin?
Wu Mu’s mind clicked, figuring out that it was Lin Qingyue’s father, Lin Xueming.
Even though Lin Qingyue would be returning tonight, she had crew matters to deal with and wouldn’t be here.
Moreover, during his morning talk with Lin Qingyue, he ntioned attending this party, and if Lin Qingyue were coming, she would not have failed to tell him.
"I’ll go say hi." He nodded and said.
With Lin Xueming present, it was necessary to greet him.
"The bosses from Light Shadow dia and Yahua Film and Television, as well as Directors Tang and Xie, are also there." Yang Rongfa whispered again.
Light Shadow dia, Yahua Film and Television?
Even if Wu Mu isn’t familiar with the industry, he knows these two companies. If Yang Rongfa’s company represents the mid-level in the industry, then these two are genuinely top-tier.
Not only are they publicly listed companies, but they also consistently produce blockbuster films every year and have artist managent businesses with many big-na stars under their banners.
These two need no further introduction.
As for Directors Tang and Xie?
If Yang Rongfa bothered to ntion them, they must be people of significance.
Wu Mu quickly figured it out: Tang Wei and Xie Chunfang.
Directors at the sa level as Lin Xueming.
All are already successful elders in the industry, with status and reputation.
So, all the big shots are over there.
He and Yang Rongfa headed towards the small lounge.
As they got closer, they could see the situation in the small lounge more clearly.
Lin Xueming was indeed there, sitting centrally on a sofa, holding a wine glass and seemingly saying sothing.
Around him sat several people, with two n who clearly had boss-like deanors, and a couple of middle-aged n standing by, likely managing artists.
There was Director Tang, attempting to cover his bald head with a cotton beret but still unable to hide it, and Director Xie, whose na carried a feminine note, yet was tall and imposing, taller than anyone else present.
And then...
Wu Mu paused in his steps.
A woman, perhaps in her forties, dressed in a black fitted suit with a pearl necklace, was whispering and laughing elegantly with the person beside her.
