More than five hundred people gathered together, making the atmosphere in this hall particularly lively. Except for the food and decorations, which looked a bit more upscale, the whole atmosphere was not much different from a usual wedding banquet.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei had not seen their friends for a long time. In such a lively atmosphere, they also took advantage of the opportunity to get together at the company's annual meeting. They poured wine with everyone, and showed their friendship to each other while drinking and drinking.
.
"Has the company arranged a drama for you this year, or do you have any plans?" Chu Xuan put down his wine glass and picked up a piece of boiled fish fillet with his chopsticks.
Huang Xuan and Zhao Liying, who were eating with their heads down, were startled when they heard Chu Xuan's question.
Huang Xuan took a lick of rice, then put his chopsticks on the bowl, chewing the food in his mouth, and replied: "Sister Hu said she would wait until "Struggle" and "Zhu Xian" are broadcast, but I plan to find someone this year.
Perform with advanced training from a personal trainer.”
As he spoke, he added: "Brother Chu, you have taught us a lot, but the breadth of knowledge still depends on ourselves."
Chu Xuan taught him and Zhao Liying a lot of things, allowing him and Zhao Liying, two actors from non-professional schools, to lay the foundation for acting.
But Chu Xuan himself is very busy and cannot teach them all the time. If he wants to learn more and broader knowledge, he can only rely on his own daily accumulation and deeper training.
He decided to study for a year this year. While learning more knowledge, he would also integrate what Chu Xuan taught him, and finally solidify his basic acting skills.
He was worried that Chu Xuan misunderstood that he thought Chu Xuan was not good at teaching, so he went to a private tutor, so he quickly added.
Chu Xuan nodded and took a bite of fish fillet.
A person's character is really closely related to his living environment and experience. Huang Xuan's parents divorced when he was young, and he learned dance that he didn't like much because of his mother's tough attitude. Because he knew the hardships of his mother raising him alone, he also let him go.
Never resisted.
Such experiences from childhood to adulthood have sharpened his character.
Ever since Chu Xuan met Huang Xuan, Huang Xuan has always been very stable, without any of the impetuousness that young people often reveal.
"What about you?" Chu Xuan glanced at Zhao Liying, then lowered his head to eat the food.
"Me?" Zhao Liying frowned and pursed her lips: "Then I'll go for training too."
Chu Xuan ate his food and felt funny when he heard Zhao Liying's words: "Did you hear that Huang Xuan was going to study, so you followed suit? From your tone, it seems quite helpless."
Zhao Liying blinked: "Master, if Huang Xuan goes to study and I don't go, will you scold me?"
Chu Xuan reached out to pick up the vegetables: "Why should I scold you?"
I heard Yang Tianzhen say before that, unlike Huang Xuan's family situation, Zhao Liying's parents were very loving and doting on Zhao Liying.
Although her family is not well-off, her parents have always let her do whatever Zhao Liying does since she was a child.
Growing up in such a relaxed environment, Zhao Liying probably predicted that "Struggle" and "Zhu Xian" would become popular after they aired, and received a salary of RMB 100,000 to 200,000 from the two dramas. This is what her parents have been doing for many years.
She couldn't make any money, but she, a newly grown-up child, made it all at once.
Under such circumstances, he analyzed that now Zhao Liying only wants to play, go shopping, and buy.
Unlike Huang Xuan's stable temperament, Zhao Liying's temperament is still very out-of-the-box at the moment.
"It's voluntary whether you want to learn or not, and I won't force you." Chu Xuan took a bite of his food and said, "If you go to learn, and one day your acting skills are good enough, I will help you act in movies and blockbusters in the future; if you don't want to learn,
Then it will be the same if you develop in the TV industry."
Zhao Liying was stunned, acting in a movie? Acting in a blockbuster?
"Master!" She raised a hand and vowed: "I want to study hard and make progress every day. I want to be an actor!"
Seeing her like this, Chu Xuan couldn't help but nodded with laughter: "Okay, come on."
Liu Yifei held back her laughter, this interesting scene amused her.
Chu Xuan was obviously deliberately tempting Zhao Liying by talking about blockbuster movies, so that Zhao Liying would have a long-term goal and study hard voluntarily.
Judging from the dazzling look in Zhao Liying's eyes, it was obvious that she had fallen into a trap set by Chu Xuan for her.
Of course, it is a good thing to study more, and Chu Xuan is also doing Zhao Liying's good.
"Everyone, let's draw a lottery." A girl from the Administration Department of Brilliant Times came from another table, holding a square box for the lottery in her hands.
"Can we also draw a lottery?" Su Chang became interested.
Liu Yifei smoothed her hair and said: "The highest is 80,000 and the lowest is 688."
Hearing her explanation, Chen He and Huang Bo mouthed "O" in surprise.
"Boss Chu is awesome!" Jiang Xin gave Chu Xuan a thumbs up.
Chu Xuan smiled slightly, picking up vegetables and eating while watching them put their hands into the box to draw the lottery.
Sister Hua and the company's senior management thought of many ideas to add color to this annual meeting.
What do employees like most? Among other things, money is definitely one of them.
It was his and Sister Hua's instruction to use a few million to draw a lottery for the employees. The goal was to give employees a sense of belonging and motivation. At the same time, it was also a reflection of the company's strength.
The special prize is 80,000, with a minimum of 688. No thank you for your patronage. Everyone has money to get it. How much you can get depends on luck.
Considering the current market situation where the per capita monthly salary in all walks of life is less than 3,000 yuan, even the lowest 688 award is undoubtedly exciting and joyful.
The annual meeting is originally held for employees. As long as employees are happy, they will be more motivated to work.
"Second prize, forty-eight thousand!"
"Six thousand eight!"
"Hahaha, eighty thousand!!"
The sound of "counting" came and went in the hall. When they heard the 80,000 first prize appeared, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei followed the people present and cast a few glances.
"One in 500, this is incredible luck." Liu Yifei said with a smile.
Chu Xuan nodded slightly and turned back to continue eating.
The hundreds of employees present were even more excited because of the upcoming lottery. Those who had not won the lottery were eagerly waiting, and those who had won the prize were looking around for the lucky ones, which added to the excitement of the atmosphere.
Half an hour passed and the lottery ended. Before everyone could recover, another carousel event came.
"Let's go up and sing." Hu Jun came from the table next to him and put his hands on Chu Xuan's shoulders.
Li Zhengtong, Liu Jialin and others also stood up from their chairs. It seemed that these brothers and sisters had already discussed the KTV activities in the evening.
It’s been a long time since I had fun. Sister Hua and the company executives were taking care of the situation in the hall. If Chu Xuan didn’t have anything to do, he waved to Su Chang and Huang Bo: “Let’s go together.
"
Hu Jun and Li Zhengyi are company artists, and Huang Bo and Su Chang are also company artists. From a company level, they are all our own people.
But in terms of the company's artist circle, Hu Jun and Li Congcheng are Hua Jie's people, and Huang Bo and Su Chang are his people.
And because Hu Jun and Li Zhengyi are shareholders of the company and have different careers, artists from the two circles rarely communicate with each other.
Chu Xuan just thought that it would be a good thing for Huang Bo and others to take his friends to play together, whether it was just to make friends or to expand his contacts purposefully.
In the large KTV, twenty or thirty people were dancing on the dance floor.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei sat on the sofa and sang. After finishing each chorus and waiting for the next verse, they looked at the happy people on the dance floor and looked like entertainers. They didn't care at all. The two of them were very happy.
"They are so open-minded." Liu Yifei covered her mouth, leaned into Chu Xuan's ear and said, "Sister Jialin has always been a noble goddess in my eyes. I never thought she could be so crazy and so cute."
Chu Xuan nodded, his eyes full of smiles: "A star takes off his halo and is no different from an ordinary person. He can play when he wants, and go crazy when he wants."
Liu Yifei nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Chu Xuan's words.
Just like she doesn't care about what she wears on weekdays, as long as she is comfortable, it doesn't matter if she looks or not, but when attending public events, she still has to dress up when she should.
The reason why a star is mysterious is that the audience only makes assumptions through her screen image, thinking that the star is the same in real life.
But what's on the screen is just the character. Few people know what the star's real life and true personality are like, because few people have ever interacted with the star, so they can only fantasize.
Fantasy things are often mysterious.
"Hello!" The door to the private room was pushed open, and Liu Xiaoli's voice came in.
Her voice was masked by the high-decibel music from the speakers. Although everyone in the private room did not hear what Liu Xiaoli said, the sound of the door being opened still made them turn their heads to look.
Not only Liu Xiaoli but also Wang Jinhua came in from the door. It seemed that the staff in the reception hall had finished entertaining them, so they came away.
"Auntie! Come and sing!" Su Chang waved enthusiastically.
"Flowers, come and touch one!" Liu Jialin said boldly and authentically, holding a large one-pound beer glass.
With the participation of Wang Jinhua and Liu Xiaoli, the lively atmosphere in the private room has reached a higher level.
After dancing together on the dance floor, Huang Xuan and Huang Bo got to know Hu Jun and others a lot.
In the private room, there was a harmonious and cheerful scene.
"Mom." Liu Yifei handed the microphone to her mother, and the song playing on the screen was "Moon Full West Tower".
Chu Xuan saw the song title on the screen. While the song was still playing, he picked up the microphone and said, "Quiet, quiet, listen to the queen singing."
Queen of Heaven?... Everyone in the private room smiled and looked at Liu Xiaoli.
Liu Xiaoli didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and glanced at Chu Xuan angrily.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were smiling, ready to listen to Liu Xiaoli's singing.
Liu Xiaoli rarely sings, or she is not interested in singing. Even if there is a KTV at home, it is basically the two of them who sing, and Liu Xiaoli just acts as an enthusiastic audience.
However, Liu Xiaoli's singing is really good, and her level is quite high.
【"The flowers drift away,
water flows by itself,
a kind of lovesickness,
Two places to worry about..."]
"Wow, does Auntie sing so well?" Jiang Xin was surprised.
"Wow, Sister Li, you hide your secrets. Your voice is a bit like Teresa Teng, amazing." Liu Jialin said curiously.
Wang Jinhua also didn't expect Liu Xiaoli to sing at this level, so she looked at her with curiosity: "I've known you for so long, and I don't know about you, but you can do it."
"No way." Liu Xiaoli shook her head: "I don't like singing, and I seldom sing."
"It's a pity." Wang Jinhua joked: "The queen was delayed by dancing."
When Chu Xuan heard this, he leaned forward and looked at Liu Xiaoli through Liu Yifei: "Auntie, there is a company here, so there is no problem in releasing an album."
Liu Xiaoli smiled and shook her head.
"Auntie sings so beautifully." Su Chang praised her vigorously, then looked past Liu Xiaoli and looked at Liu Yifei: "Sissi, why didn't you inherit your auntie's singing talent? You always sing out of tune."
Liu Yifei's face froze, then she smiled, picked up the pillow on the sofa and threw it in the direction of Su Chang: "Die Su Chang, I'll beat you to death!"
In such a pleasant atmosphere, everyone played from 7pm to early 10pm.
When we arrived at the hall, there were more than fifty banquet tables, but there were still about a dozen people drinking and talking and laughing happily.
Seeing this scene, Wang Jinhua said: "You guys go back first, I'll go take a look."
Chu Xuan nodded: "Sister, let's go first."
After saying goodbye to Wang Jinhua, a group of twenty or thirty people walked out in large numbers, preparing to go back to their homes.
Because there were so many people, there was not enough room in one elevator, so everyone tacitly prepared to take the stairs.
Just when passing by the elevator entrance, I saw Han Sanping who had just finished making a phone call at the elevator door and was about to enter the elevator and leave the hotel.
The momentum of the twenty or thirty people was so loud that Han Sanping couldn't help but turn his head and look around. He smiled at everyone, didn't know what he thought of, and waved to Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei understood, looked at Hu Jun and the others, and motioned for them to leave first.
Hu Jun and the others nodded and continued walking towards the stairs, while the young couple and Liu Xiaoli walked towards Han Sanping.
"Third brother." Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei greeted.
Han Sanping nodded slightly and walked into the elevator, followed by a family of three.
Seeing the elevator door slowly closing, Han Sanping said: "I heard from Jinhua, Xiaoxuan, you have an investment plan related to the Internet? And you are going to invite some bosses to your home for discussion. Do you still need me to be present?"
Chu Xuan nodded: "When third brother comes to take charge, I feel more confident."
"Hey!" Han Sanping raised the corner of his mouth slightly and waved his hand: "I don't understand the Internet, so I can't give you any help. But you were very successful in micro-entertainment back then. I'm quite curious about your plans this time.
When I have time, please call me anytime."
"Okay." Chu Xuan said happily.
The elevator door opened, and the family of three followed Han Sanping out.
After passing through the hotel lobby and arriving at the door, the two parties said goodbye and walked in two different directions.
Liu Xiaoli glanced at the nanny car that was picking them up not far away, and said: "Your investment plan seems to have nothing to do with Han Sanping, Xiaoxuan, why do you want to involve Han Sanping?"
"It's so cold." Liu Yifei was hit by the cold wind, so she quickly put a coat and hat on her head, took Chu Xuan's hand and stuffed it into Chu Xuan's purse.
Chu Xuan tightened the hand he held with Liu Yifei in his purse and said: "Huaying is a central enterprise with a special status. It is under the direct management of the national court and acts in accordance with the cultural will of the country."
“The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television is a state department, but it is not under the control of the State Council, but is under the control of the Ministry of Culture.”
"However, the attributes of China Film and Television and the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television are the same. They both came into being for the healthy development of the domestic cultural industry."
"The division of labor is different, and the responsibilities are also different, but the attributes are the same, so China Film and Television and the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television are two inseparable institutions."
Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei nodded and continued listening.
Chu Xuan continued: "The leader that Sissi and I met while hiking last time was the powerful deputy director of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. I have a very good personal relationship with my third brother."
"With this relationship, the relationship between China Film and Broadcasting Corporation will definitely become closer."
"Radio and Television is an organization that formulates industry rules and cannot actively interfere with the development of industries and enterprises. China Film and Television is an enterprise and has the same right to formulate rules as Radio and Television, but it can actively interfere with the development of industries and other enterprises.
"
"Based on this relationship and this rule, I think that as long as the third brother does not touch the bottom line, he has the final say on how the entertainment industry should operate during his reign."
After a pause, he continued: "He likes young people, and he prefers young people who are motivated. Moreover, my concept of film and television industrialization is very different from his, and I also have the resources and funds to try to realize this concept, so he is very optimistic about me.
.”
"Then, the more capable and powerful I am in front of him and let him see with his own eyes, the greater his help will be to me and even to the entire Brilliant Era."
"Besides, Sissi and I will be more comfortable in the circle in the future."
Liu Xiaoli nodded slowly, completely understanding what Chu Xuan was thinking.
Everything Chu Xuan thinks about is planning for the future, and he thinks very long-term.
Chu Xuan added: "It is true that Brilliant Era has a strong financial foundation, but if a company wants to develop to a true top position in the industry and be unbreakable, it is useless to rely on funds alone. It also needs connections that ordinary people cannot reach, and even the country
level of support.”
"He will retire at 53 or 60 this year and can stay in office for 7 years."
"In the past seven years, whether it was due to friendship, interests, or the common pursuit of film and television industrialization, the deeper the trust relationship between us, the better."
"Only in this way, after he retires, can I get to know the network behind him, or he will voluntarily give me his network of contacts."
"With this network of contacts, the Brilliant Era will erect a golden body of official blessing."
Chu Xuan turned his head and looked at Liu Xiaoli: "Once Xixi and I's investment plan is successful, we can build up a capital network. And the third brother has an official network. When the two are combined, the Brilliant Era will be the real one.
Invincible."
Liu Xiaoli hissed and looked at Chu Xuan.
This brat, do you dare to scheme against Han Sanping? You are very courageous.
But having said that, this kid's idea doesn't have any shady tricks. This can't be called a calculation, it can only be said to be really smart.
But how can this kid think things through so thoroughly at such a young age?
She didn't know what to say, she could only praise her from the bottom of her heart - my son-in-law is so good!
"Sister Hua is right. In ancient times, you would have been a very good counselor." Liu Xiaoli said with a smile.
Chu Xuan was startled and then smiled.
"I am a counselor now, and I will be a lord in the future." Liu Yifei said playfully.
Her sudden words made Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli burst into laughter.
"Then what do you think?" Chu Xuan felt interesting.
"Me?" Liu Yifei stepped onto the nanny car, sat down on the sofa, and uttered one word: "Queen."
"No matter what happens, you have to put pressure on me, right?" Chu Xuan sat down next to her.
Liu Yifei winked at him mischievously and nodded.
"Okay." Chu Xuan sighed: "I can finally see it. No matter how well I develop, my position at the bottom of the food chain is very stable."
Liu Xiaoli sat down opposite the two children: "This is very clear."
Liu Yifei arched her eyebrows and looked at Chu Xuan with a joking look.
Chu Xuan shrugged, pretending to be helpless.
The car body shook slightly, the nanny car started, and headed home.
"Check the ppt in the next few days and settle things as soon as possible." Chu Xuan looked at the night scene outside the car window.
Liu Yifei said "Yeah", maybe a little tired, she leaned on his shoulder and slowly closed her eyes.
