Chapter 206 - Super Star Potential

Chapter 206: Super Star Potential

Iron bro!


Iron god!


Meng host, can we take a photo?

There were several people going in and out of the arcade and several who recognized Meng Fan. Most of them knew him because of the last CGL competition in Hangzhou, where several people often came to watch the game. They were very impressed by Meng Fan, who left a great impression. The rest of them had recognized him from the 11/11 gala since his presence wasn’t just something casually left there to dry.

Okay.

Meng Fan took a phone from a cute girl and snapped a photo before handing her phone back. The cute girl was about 150 cm at most, and it wasn’t convenient for her to take the photo with Meng Fan being so tall. Besides, if she took the photo, the double chin she worked so hard to lose would appear again.
The forty-five-degree angle was flawless; she was photogenic no matter what.
The cute girl took the phone. Yes, very good, she looked so petite, and she was smiling! What a great photo. Smiling, she said to Meng Fan,
Thanks Meng host, I will photoshop you too.

Meng Fan paused for a moment. ‘Isn’t this something only good friends can do?’

Iron brother, good luck tomorrow!


Iron god, will your maid army come tomorrow?

Da Fei was full of jealousy as he watched them.
Budday, you’re popularity is too hot!

Pao bro bluntly added,
If you could create a world record and make it to the 11/11 gala with your sand magic, you’d be famous too. You’re all from Wenzhou, yet you’re so different!

Da Fei tried to kick Pao.
Give me my ticket back, I’m going to rip it up and not give it to you.

Pao dodged his kick and chuckled.
No take backs! The ghost knife disappears! Move move! Do it!

Da Fei was much more flexible than Pao. Another kick hit Pao directly between his butt cheeks.
There were several people nearby, who all unanimously continued Pao’s sentence,
Yo, that does not feel good!

Meng Fan was stunned. Seeing all the people nearby laughing, he was clueless. Has he been drawing too crazily to bother checking Weibo. Did a new meme came out or something?
Leaving the arcade, Pao and the others went to the parking lot, while Meng Fan headed for the mall upstairs. He hailed a cab and headed toward the Huanglong Gymnasium.

Meng boss is coming? Let’s wait for him.

Su Qing Cen’s manager Hu Yi Jing was one of the most famous managers in the industry. Her specialty was that she loved to smile, had a poisonous eye, and her schemes were harsh but effective. Several people would call her a smiling tiger behind her back.
When Su Qing Cen debuted, her manager was not Hu Yi Jing. She had brutally intervened and stole Su Qing Cen into her own care. The reason was simple. She felt Su Qing Cen would be ruined in the hands of her old manager. And reality proved to be right, as once Su Qing Cen came into her management, her popularity soared, and her name became known. In a short time, Hu Yi Jing had single-handedly turned her into a celebrity capable of all performance categories.
You could say Su Qing Cen was here today because of Hu Yi Jing’s efforts.
Hu Yi Jing loved to smile, but everyone could tell what her smile was saying; it was either a fake smile, a cold smile, an arrogant smile… Either way, it had nothing to do with warmth. Although she smiled, it made people very uncomfortable.
But she had good eyes for talent since she had a very strong sense of professional competitiveness. Of course, these kinds of people were often very arrogant, stubborn, and hard to deal with. Hence, her attitude toward Meng Fan was always very good!
If someone else, even if it was a celebrity, made her wait, she would have been very unhappy, even if she was willing to wait. Especially for such trivial matters like a meal. No way she would wait for them.
But she was willing to wait for Meng Fan, very willing. She even asked the others to wait for him.
Was Meng Fan’s charm that effective? Or was it his smile’s appeal? Yeah right.
She was nice because Meng Fan had brought Su Qing Cen several good reviews as her number one fan. Was it just his assistance during her performances? No, that would only warrant some basic politeness like other collaborating artists.
Was it because she knew Meng Fan’s sister was Meng Cai Wei? Yes, that was right!
Meng Cai Wei did not only have a big name, but she had a big temper too. The key point here was that even a harsh and brazen person like Hu Yi Jing had been ripped apart by Meng Cai Wei before, and very roughly at that. In the end, Meng Cai Wei had repaired her back together, and since then Hu Yi Jing was completely defeated by Meng Cai Wei’s temper and respected her.
She couldn’t afford to upset Meng Fan knowing his origin!
Besides, there was another important factor—since she could just hide from him if she didn’t want to upset him—and that was how she had seen Meng Fan’s potential.
It was not just a regular potential either, but the potential to be a superstar!
She trusted her own judgment!

Meng boss is here.

Hu Yi Jing followed Su Qing Cen and Bai Zhi, calling him Meng boss as well with a hint of sarcasm and a hint of familiarity and welcomed him into their private room.
I remember you liked to eat shrimp dumplings with black pine bamboo, so I’ve ordered that for you. Oh, and these too, you can see what else you’d like to eat.


Thanks, sister Jing, then let’s get two… No four more orders of the dumplings.

Meng Fan didn’t hold back. These dumplings were delicious.
Meng Fan always had a good impression of Hu Yi Jing. She was very polite but friendly. She had a sense of things, and she was radiating with maturity, femininity, success, independence, and knowledge from head to toe. Plus, her smile was very heartwarming too.
Yes, it was heartwarming. Meng Fan never felt like Hu Yi Jing had a ‘smiling tiger’ air to her, and only saw genuine warmth and familiarity in her smile.
Everyone said that pretty people saw the world differently from average-looking people, and this applied to rich people as well—Meng Cai Wei was one of these treasure chests.

Want anything else aside from dumplings?

Seeing Meng Fan nod, Hu Yi Jing asked the waiter to add some more dishes while bringing their food at the same time.
Aside from Hu Yi Jing and Su Qing Cen, there were a few more staff members present as well. Although they didn’t think Meng Fan was some super idol, they had nothing to say as they saw Su Qing Cen and Hu Yi Jing’s attitude toward him. The girls were already waiting for him, could they say no?

This is really good, try it.

Su Qing Cen was sitting next to Meng Fan and had been continuously putting food on Meng Fan’s plate. She was in a superb mood seeing Meng Fan happily gobble up all the food.
It wasn’t anything complicated, she just remembered what Meng Cai Wei had said to her at her last concert in Shanghai, about Meng Fan being very attractive as a kid but then his sisters fed him too much and he got fat. Meng Cai Wei had mentioned, in the beginning, they were just happy to see Meng Fan eating for some reason, but then they got addicted, and then he changed.

Meng boss.

They ate for 15 minutes or so when the second plate of shrimp and black truffle bamboo dumplings were served. Hu Yi Jing put the dumplings directly in front of Meng Fan then remembered something.
I forgot. Last time when the 11/11 gala ended, several people in our industry had asked us if they could collaborate with you, including variety shows, concerts, and MV companies, as well as some commercials. I know you said you don’t want to attend unless it’s streamed, but I didn’t reject them either, thinking it’d be best to ask you personally. I looked through them, and the quality of these invitations seem to be okay.
