The Miss Hong Kong and Miss Oriental beauty pageants were held successively. Li Jiaxin performed well on the Eastern Miss side, but Yang Baoling, the Miss Hong Kong champion last year, was still using it as a publicity stunt because Yang Baoling won n awards in the previous Miss Universe and Miss World.
prize.
Coincidentally, Li Jiaxin, the former Miss Hong Kong champion this year, came to participate in Miss Oriental, and Le Bei, the former Miss Asia champion, actually appeared in the semi-finals of Miss Hong Kong.
Even Li Jiaxin herself did not know about Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group's decision to support Li Jiaxin. After all, Dongjie was already on the right track, unlike in the first competition where she had discussed with the contestants early on how to cooperate with the hype.
The company originally planned to officially promote Li Jiaxin after the semi-finals, but it turned out that there were other people helping to promote it.
"Little sister, look at this quickly!" Li Jiaming took several newspapers and walked to his sister Li Jiaxin and said, "These newspapers are all saying that you are dating Mr. Ni."
Li Jiaxin only glanced at the photo in the newspaper, and immediately turned pale and said in shock: "How could this photo be taken by a reporter?"
In fact, the photo in the newspaper was nothing. After the semi-finals, Ni Zhen gave Li Jiaxin a large bouquet of roses, and Li Jiaxin accepted it with a bright smile.
As for the content of the report, it was naturally that Ni Zhen fell in love with Li Jiaxin at first sight, had frequent contact before and after the game, and finally won the beauty's trust with a bouquet of roses.
Li Jiaming said: "What's wrong with being photographed? Mr. Ni is young and rich, so it would be safer to make this kind of thing public as soon as possible. If he is half-hearted in the future, he may be called a heartless person."
Li Jiaxin said anxiously: "You don't know, since we entered the semi-finals, we have been asked not to fall in love during the competition. It would be terrible if we were asked to withdraw from the competition because of this matter."
Li Jiaming smiled and said: "If you quit the competition, quit the competition. The Ni family is so rich. Marrying and being a young mistress is no worse than being a beauty pageant champion."
Li Jiaxin remained silent. She already had a good impression of Ni Zhen, so she naturally felt that her sister's words were reasonable. However, a girl's vanity and dream of becoming a star made her reluctant to drop out of the competition midway.
…
At this time, in an office of Phoenix TV, Wang Xinwei was holding a newspaper and getting angry: "What did you do? I have told you not to use scandals to hype up from the beginning. That is very low-level, do you understand? Now TVB mocks us every year
Miss Oriental has no style. How can a Hong Kong sister represent Hong Kong? Now that the Miss Oriental beauty pageant is on the right track, what we have to do now is to improve the reputation of the entire event. In the future, no one is allowed to use negative news or scandals in publicity."
The Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant was not popular at first, but it was not until later that a Hong Kong sister married into a wealthy family, and the winner of the Hong Kong Miss Hong Kong could represent Hong Kong in international beauty pageants, and the popularity of Hong Kong Miss Hong Kong soared.
Nowadays, the Miss Oriental beauty pageant is no less influential than Miss Hong Kong in Hong Kong, but no one recognizes it outside of Hong Kong. Moreover, some negative hype used in the past few years to quickly attract popularity has made Miss Oriental known to many
Intellectuals and upper-class people look down upon it, and these negative images must be slowly reversed.
Wei Dongming, who was in charge of publicity, argued: "Sister Amy, those reports you mentioned were really not our doing."
Wang Xinwei patted the newspaper in her hand and said: "Several different newspapers reported the same scandal on the same day, and the photos were all the same. Will no one operate it later? You think I am a three-year-old child."
Wei Dongming said innocently: "Maybe someone is deliberately helping to hype it up."
"Who would be so kind to pay several newspapers to help us hype Li Jiaxin at the same time?" Wang Xinwei asked.
Everyone sitting there looked at each other in shock. Suddenly Wei Dongming pointed to the photo of Ni Zhen in the newspaper and said: "Sister Amy, do you think it was this young man who did it?"
"Ni Zhen?" Wang Xinwei asked doubtfully.
Wei Dongming explained: "I often deal with the media, and it just occurred to me that Ni Zhen has contributed articles to these newspapers on North Korean scandals before."
Only then did Wang Xinwei suddenly realize it. She couldn't laugh or cry and said: "This guy is really willing to spend money to pick up girls."
Wei Dongming said: "Ni Zhen, like his father and aunt, loves to be in the limelight. He wants the whole world to know what he does. He can really do such things."
"Oh, forget it, now that Ni Zhen has made a start, let's just continue to speculate," Wang Xinwei thought for a while and said to her assistant, "Ayu, you call Li Jiaxin, I have something to explain to her."
…
It has only been a week since the Miss Oriental semi-finals, and Li Jiaxin's limelight has overshadowed all the contestants, including the Miss Hong Kong contestants.
Not only because Li Jiaxin is beautiful, but also because the scandal between her and Ni Zhen has made a lot of noise, and there is also a dawn in the middle.
If it were just Ni Zhen, he wouldn't have received so much attention. The problem is that Ni Zhen also has two famous relatives behind him. Fans of Ni Kuang and Yi Shu are all over Hong Kong.
Now, if you ask anyone on the streets of Hong Kong, you will know that there is a woman named Li Jiaxin who is being pursued by Ni Zhen and Liming at the same time.
However, when reporters asked Li Jiaxin who she liked more, Li Jiaxin gave a standard answer every time: "Both of them are excellent, but now I am focusing on preparing for the beauty pageant finals and will not consider dating for the time being."
After answering these questions, Li Jiaxin also disclosed her criteria for choosing a spouse to reporters. She said: "Actually, I think it doesn't matter whether you have money or not. The most important thing for a man is that he is motivated and will succeed one day if he pursues his goals. As for looks, I
It doesn’t matter if you think you’re handsome or not. If you’re too handsome, you’ll be easily distracted. Just be clean and considerate. The most important thing is not to be too lazy or sloppy.”
Li Jiaxin's words were naturally made up by someone for him, but they made countless grassroots people like her even more. Many men bought piles of newspapers and cut out the votes in the newspapers to vote for Li Jiaxin.
Kang Jianfei responded to this series of hype with a cold eye and did not interfere in the operation of the event. He had already let go of many matters in various companies. It would be so tiring to worry about everything.
However, Ni Zhen's high profile made Kang Jianfei a little displeased. It was not because of how bad his character was, but simply because of the jealousy among male animals.
As for Ni Zhen taking Li Jiaxin's first blood and throwing it away in the original time and space, and then taking Zhou Huimin's first blood, and then stepping on a few boats and so on, it was none of Kang Jianfei's business.
By the end of June, all the preparatory work for "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" was basically completed, and we were just waiting for the actors to be in place before filming started.
For Kang Jianfei, the most difficult thing to hire is not the leading actor, but the supporting roles in the film. This is why the filming of the film has not started yet.
Not to mention that Chen Baixiang had already been invited to play the role of Mrs. Hua, Kang Jianfei had to choose from more than 200 actors contracted by Oriental Entertainment Company. In the end, he found that Zheng Peipei in the original version was the most suitable. It felt like something was wrong if someone else played the role.
The problem is that the former martial arts queen Zheng Peipei quit the entertainment industry after getting married. She has been out of the entertainment industry for seventeen years. It is not easy to invite her to come back.
For this reason, Kang Jianfei had to visit the house in person.
Zheng Peipei's husband is Taiwanese. After the two got married, the family immigrated to the United States. However, the marriage lasted for more than ten years and finally ended. After the divorce last year, Zheng Peipei moved back to Hong Kong.
Zheng Peipei was obviously very surprised that Kang Jianfei came to the door in person. She had often heard Kang Jianfei's name in the United States, so she quickly greeted him into the room and asked: "Mr. Kang, would you like to sit down, would you like tea or coffee?"
"Tea, thank you." Kang Jianfei looked around the room as he spoke. Zheng Peipei obviously lives alone, with three daughters and one son staying in the United States. This gave Kang Jianfei some confidence in persuading her.
How boring would it be for a divorced woman with no children around her and no official job yet to stay at home all day? Zheng Peipei refused the invitation before, probably not because she didn’t want to come back, but because the role of Mrs. Hua was too funny. Zheng Peipei
It's a bit unacceptable.
"Mr. Kang is here because of that incident," Zheng Peipei came over to make tea and said straight to the point, "I have also read about the script. I have never acted in a comedy before, so I am afraid I am not qualified."
Kang Jianfei did not directly persuade her to join the crew, but asked: "Ms. Zheng, aside from my drama, are you willing to come back and make movies? Oriental Entertainment Company welcomes you at any time."
Zheng Peipei has been idle at home for a few months and has long been looking for something to do. She said emotionally: "I have been away from acting for so many years. I'm afraid the audience has forgotten me."
"I'm sure I haven't forgotten it, but well," Kang Jianfei changed his tone, "You definitely can't act like a chivalrous heroine in movies like before."
"That's for sure, I'm a long time old." Zheng Peipei never thought that she could still be a martial arts queen like before in her 40s. Although she took good care of herself and had no wrinkles on her face, her whole face
But she looks very rich and gives people a graceful and dignified feeling, which is more suitable for playing a middle-aged wealthy lady.
Kang Jianfei guided the conversation and said: "Then the question is, if Ms. Zheng comes back, how will you position yourself?"
Zheng Peipei nodded and stared at Kang Jianfei, wanting to hear him continue.
Kang Jianfei said: "I think I can try any type of character. This time Mrs. Hua is very interesting."
Zheng Peipei said: "But I feel that I am not suitable for comedy."
"Eighty percent of the best-selling movies in Hong Kong are comedies. Ms. Zheng, you want to come back and make movies. You can't pass the comedy level, so why not give it a try?" Kang Jianfei said.
Cheng Peipei was a little hesitant after being told by Kang Jianfei, because Kang Jianfei made a very reasonable point. Martial arts films are no longer popular, and it is impossible not to make comedies in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
Kang Jianfei said: "It's better to do this. When the time comes, we will try to take a shot. If it doesn't work, we will replace him."
"Then...okay." The reason why Zheng Peipei agreed was mainly because Kang Jianfei came to the door in person, and it would be too disrespectful for her to refuse.
Kang Jianfei took this trip to deal with Mrs. Hua. When he returned, he received a call on the way. The two love rivals, Ni Zhen and Liming, were jealous of each other.rs
