Jiang Xiao'e and Gong Ju'ren were also surrounded by reporters asking questions.
The three currently hot singers in the Chinese music scene gave unprecedentedly unified answers when facing audience questions.
Reporter: "Mr. Gong Ju'ren, do you have anything to say to your fans for participating in the Times Music Awards?"
Gong Ju'ren: "Thank Ting Yu. Without him, I wouldn't be who I am today. I remember when I first entered the industry..."
Reporter: "I'd like to ask Ms. Jiang Xiao'e, to have such singing skills at this age, can you share how you usually practice?"
Jiang Xiao'e: "Thank you, Teacher Ting Yu. He has always been my motivation. Whenever I'm lost or don't know how to move forward, he is like a beacon..." Da Feng Novel Network
Reporter: "Mr. Zhang Wei, you went from being a draft champion to a low point. What made you come back?"
Zhang Wei: "Ting Yu, it was Ting Yu's encouragement and support. Without Ting Yu, I wouldn't be who I am today..."
No matter what the reporters asked, they would thank Ting Yu, which left the reporters speechless.
After the signing segment ended.
Su Yu and his group were arranged in a private lounge backstage at the awards ceremony.
The lounge had tea, snacks, and even dedicated service staff.
Gong Ju'ren asked the service staff to leave, as he could personally handle pouring tea and water. Why reward these people?
"Brother Yu, their tea is only A-grade. I brought you the top-grade Da Hong Pao."
Gong Ju'ren took out a box of tea from his bag and started brewing it.
"Teacher Ting Yu, these are cranberry cookies I baked for you. I've been learning for a long time. Please try them and see if they're delicious." Jiang Xiao'e was not to be outdone. She had guessed that Gong Ju'ren would bring tea, so she bypassed that. She had learned to make cookies as tea snacks for Su Yu.
"Let's all eat together..." Su Yu felt that his company culture seemed to be going off track.
Why were these singers skipping the usual protocol and just trying to curry favor?
Fortunately, Zhang Wei, the elder brother, was steady. Unlike Gong Ju'ren, he didn't make the atmosphere awkward.
"Brother Yu, I've recently endorsed a massage device that's great for the cervical spine. Would you like to try it?"
Just then, the mature and steady Zhang Wei suddenly took out a neck massager from his bag and started putting it on Su Yu's neck.
Su Yu was stunned.
Influenced by Gong Ju'ren's company culture, Brother Wei had also learned to be sneaky...
Lin Yanyu, standing by, watched Su Yu with the massager on his head, cookies in his left hand, and tea in his right.
He looked incredibly comical.
She couldn't help but stifle her laughter.
Su Yu glared at her.
What are you laughing at?
As if you didn't try to curry favor?
You were so happy trying to curry favor last night.

The Times Music Awards was the largest music awards ceremony globally, planned by Times Music.
The program team leaders were also representatives from major top music companies, jointly managing and planning the event.
In the Chinese entertainment industry, the West only sent one person in charge named Albert. The rest were handled by the four major entertainment companies to supervise and tally the nominations.
After all, only the major entertainment companies in the Chinese entertainment industry knew the domestic situation.
"It seems difficult to present this year's awards..."
Albert frowned as he looked at the list in his hand. The list contained the major music awards to be nominated tonight, and the names written after the dense array of awards were all the same.
That's right, it was "Ting Yu"!
This situation had never happened in any previous awards ceremony.
Because no matter how talented a producer was, even if they swept all the awards, there were still many awards for singers that others could win.
Like the previous "Music God" Chen Shuhao, who dominated the music charts that year and also swept all the awards, he only won producer awards, and his screen time was not much.
But Ting Yu was different this time. He was not only a producer but also a singer, and an incredibly powerful one!
It could be said that he had won almost every award possible.
This made it truly difficult to present him with awards. After all, if he stood on stage for all the awards in one night, what would be the point of the ceremony?
"Why don't we cancel some of Ting Yu's less important awards and give them to others?" A senior executive suddenly suggested, then explained, "Ting Yu is already winning so many awards that he won't be affected by not winning those minor ones."
"I think it's feasible. Our company's artists come to the awards ceremony, and if they don't get any awards, it's quite awkward," complained a CEO of an entertainment company.
"I think it's fine, let's do it this way."
"This way, others will also feel a sense of participation, and those insignificant minor awards are negligible to Ting Yu."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
After all, in their opinion, since Ting Yu had monopolized all the major awards, distributing some of the useless minor awards to other artists attending the ceremony would prevent the ceremony from being too boring.
"No!"
At this moment, Lin Chaoyang, who had been silent, slammed the table.
"Even the smallest award is what Ting Yu deserves. Why should it be given to others?" He bared his teeth at everyone, like a cat with its tail stepped on.
"My son-in-law, whom I personally promoted, and you're saying he shouldn't get an award?
"Don't talk about minor awards, even the nominations he deserves shouldn't be missed!"
"But... if that's the case, what's the point of the ceremony?" Albert spread his hands, saying with a wry smile.
As a senior executive of overseas entertainment companies, he didn't have much of an opinion on the Chinese entertainment awards. He was just considering the ceremony itself.
"Why wouldn't it be interesting? I love watching it!" Lin Chaoyang snorted coldly.
Everyone looked at Lin Chaoyang with strange expressions.
Of course, you love watching it, he's your son-in-law!
Although they were not convinced, if Lin Chaoyang truly objected, they couldn't say much. After all, these awards were truly deserved by Ting Yu, as Lin Chaoyang said. If they were given to others without reason, and the recipient didn't pursue it, it would be fine. But given Lin Chaoyang's ability to stir up trouble, the artists of other companies who received those awards would likely be severely criticized by Ting Yu's fans.
"Since General Manager Lin has an objection, then let's forget it."
"We were just suggesting it, not trying to implement it..."
"Forget it, we don't need this award!"
"Heh, General Manager Lin is indeed a successful businessman. He can't afford to lose even a little bit."
Instead of this, it was better not to take it. Although it meant losing an honor, at least he could protect himself.
However, they were all competitors in business, and the usual taunts were unavoidable.
"You flatter me."
Lin Chaoyang was completely unaffected. He clasped his hands with a smile at everyone.
Seeing this, everyone snorted coldly.
"Alright, let's witness the birth of a truly accomplished musician in the Chinese music scene."
Albert made the final decision!
Although he had the right to arrange the awards, he also needed everyone's consent. Even though only Lin Chaoyang refused, as the largest entertainment company in the Chinese entertainment industry, his objection alone was sufficient. And he had succeeded in his objection!
