"That's it for today. I wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival in advance. See you next week."
When the bell rang, Zeng clutched his textbooks, turned off the multimedia TV in the classroom, packed his things and prepared to leave.
It is now the end of September, freshmen have just completed their military training, and the course is in its infancy.
In the last year of college, senior students are basically in a semi-freedom state. They are either going to run a group, take the postgraduate entrance examination, or think about the establishment of the unit. In short, they are all thinking about their future, and attending classes is no longer the top priority.
Of course, there are also some who take advantage of the opportunity to skip class, and most teachers turn a blind eye.
Because of this, Zeng Li, who mainly teaches freshmen and seniors, has a more relaxed course this year, with basically nothing to worry about.
"Teacher Zeng."
After taking only two steps, he saw a round-faced girl chasing after her. Cao Li recognized her and asked with a smile.
"Xiaomeng, what's wrong?"
"The scene I told you about last time has been completed. Thanks to your help, Wang Lei and I boldly want to treat you to a meal to express our gratitude and show our gratitude."
"It's nothing. I just helped to explain it. The key is that the person himself is not clean, and Wang Lei has to live up to his own reputation."
Zeng Li didn't take this matter to heart. The Li Xiaomeng in front of her and the Wang Lei in her mouth were both her students.
Wang Lei is in the 2000 grade. When he first entered school, Zeng Li had just started working as a trainee teacher and also led his class in military training.
Li Xiaomeng was born in 2009 and is a couple with Wang Lei. Although Wang Lei is 9 levels older than Li Xiaomeng, they are actually only 3 years apart.
She is quite special. She became famous at a young age and acted in many dramas. Later, she was admitted to a comprehensive university. Because she was not allowed to take leave to act, she took the Chinese Opera exam after taking leave of school. She was 24 years old when she entered school and was the oldest girl in the class.
Zeng Li and Wang Lei didn't have much interaction, but they knew that this student later entered the humanities arts field and had made some small achievements in the field of drama over the years.
Starting from "Eternal Number" in 2010, he gradually gained some fame and established a firm foothold in the circle.
Li Xiaomeng took Zeng Li's class during her sophomore and senior years. She was also Zeng Li's two most promising and favorite students in their class. The other one was Bai Yu, the monitor of their class.
Not long ago, Wang Lei contacted a film crew. The role was almost negotiated, but he was blackmailed by an assistant director and asked to give him 40% of the salary, otherwise the role would be spoiled.
This situation is not uncommon in the industry.
Many actors are determined by directors, producers and even assistant casting directors. They use power for personal gain. The crew signs a contract with the actors for a salary that is higher than the market price, and the actors give part of the work to the staff, which is regarded as a kickback.
This can be considered an unspoken rule in the entertainment industry, and it has been banned repeatedly, especially middle- and low-level actors, who have suffered greatly from it.
However, under normal circumstances, the money he can get is given to the matchmaker. Wang Lei felt that this role was negotiated by himself, and the asking price was a bit high, so he was reluctant.
As a result, the assistant director was angered. Not only did he lose the role, but he also forced Wang Lei to pay the crew 200,000 due to a loophole in the contract.
If the role is bad, it will be bad. Young actors have suffered similar losses, but they can't bear to lose money.
Wang Lei has only been famous for two years, has little savings, and is still thinking about settling down in the capital. How come he is inexplicably willing to take out 200,000 yuan.
So they decided to find someone to see if they could smooth things over.
Originally, it was a big boss in the entertainment industry who came forward, but it turned out that the crew in Hong Kong didn't care about these veteran actors at all. Later, after some advice from an expert, Li Xiaomeng settled on Zeng Li.
Because Zeng Li had suffered losses before, he usually paid little attention to his private grudges and grudges except occasionally introducing resources to students and caring about business.
However, things were also divided into priorities. It was obvious that she was being bullied and she couldn't just sit back and watch when she came to ask for help, so she called to ask.
It just so happens that this crew has investment from Guolan, so the rest is easy.
The assistant director and the producer behind him got out together, the compensation was voided, and Wang Lei got the role as a blessing in disguise.
The young couple thought about it, thinking about inviting Zeng Li to a meal to express their gratitude. At the same time, this time they also realized how important it is to have a backer in the entertainment industry, so they wanted to take the opportunity to build a good relationship with Zeng Li.
"Teacher Xinyi has accepted it, so there is no need to eat. Just film well and don't embarrass me."
Zeng Li declined the invitation. Now, as some things have been exposed, many people's purpose of approaching her is not so pure, so Zeng Li also maintains an attitude of being close but not close.
She is usually kind and kind, like a benevolent teacher, but if she doesn't trust her to a certain extent, it's impossible for her to treat her as one of her own.
Something happened to the student, and she was willing to help out of the friendship between teacher and student without giving anything in return, but that didn't mean that her relationship with the student would get better and better.
Although Zeng Li is still a teacher who cares about students, he no longer has the purity and enthusiasm that he had without any other thoughts. Except for some old students, when facing other students, he will put on a layer of defense and caution with a gentle attitude.
Alien inner shell.
She didn't know whether it was because she had matured or because she felt overwhelmed by her high position.
Sometimes, emotionally, Zeng Li feels that such an attitude is too indifferent, but from a rational perspective, Zeng Li believes that such an attitude is correct.
After waving goodbye to the somewhat disappointed Li Xiaomeng, Zeng left the car and went home. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Cao Xuan taking his daughter and son to show off the two carp he had caught.
"Didn't you record a song? Why did you go fishing again?"
"Look for inspiration."
Cao Xuan's face was not red and his heart was not beating. The progress of the new album is not slow and it is expected to be completed in November. There is plenty of time. Boss Cao took a break from his busy schedule and went to Miyun Entertainment for a while.
"You didn't buy this carp from the market again, did you?"
Empress Donggong, who rarely got off work early today, expressed doubts, which aroused Cao Xuan's dissatisfaction.
"The time I joined the Air Force, I usually didn't come back with a full load."
Zeng Li sneered: "You call two fish a full load?"
Hu Jing took out her mobile phone: "I don't believe it. I'll go to Weibo to see if you have any hot searches."
Cao Xuan's face was full of black marks. The last time he went fishing, he was afraid of losing face because of the Air Force, so he drove to the vegetable market and bought some fish. As a result, he was photographed and posted online.
Netizens were surprised that such a famous star and rich man as Cao Xuan actually went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and they all made fun of Mr. Cao, a good citizen.
But after returning home, Cao Xuan was exposed and was ridiculed by the East and West Ergong. Even after fishing, he would question his strength at every turn.
Hu Jing wandered around the Internet and found no trace. She was disappointed to believe that Cao Xuan had no air force. Cao Xuan snorted proudly.
He is not stupid. After suffering a loss once, he went to the vegetable market and directly asked his friends who were traveling together. Otherwise, he bought two fish from a fishing friend. They were safe and harmless, and they were all freshly caught. Even Cao Shuangguo, who also loves fishing, could tell the difference.
Not coming out.
"Mom, I want to eat fish."
"Okay, I'll call and ask to see if there are any other good products."
Carp has a strong fishy smell and is prickly. In fact, children don’t like to eat it. Normally when the family eats fish, the chef goes to the grass to fly it or specially orders it fresh.
There are many rich people in the capital, and the supporting facilities are also exaggerated. Although it is inland, there are fresh seafood and river products every day, all shipped from Jinmen, Lianshi and other places, ensuring survival. Of course, the prices are also very impressive.
.
But this is only a small amount of money, mainly because it is convenient, so you can eat what you want at home.
Cao Xuan and the others are all inland. They are relatively easy to feed, and they don’t have high requirements for seafood, as long as it is fresh.
However, many wealthy or sophisticated people in coastal cities are resistant to this kind of food that has left their hometowns. They feel that it is unauthentic, and they prefer to catch and eat it on the same day along the coast.
Cao Xuan has also eaten a lot of seafood in coastal cities, but he doesn't actually feel any difference. Anyway, he and his family can accept it.
I made a steamed dongxingban, a few pounds of prawns with pepper and salt, Cao Xuan made some oysters to replenish his health, Zeng Li and the others made a crab meat lion head, and finally a braised abalone with braised pork.
However, Cao Xuan refuses to eat this dish. In fact, it doesn't taste bad, but he feels it is very awkward. When abalone and pork are cooked together, it always feels like a dark cuisine.
As for Cao Shuangguo and Sun Lan, they don't like to eat aquatic products because they find them fishy. When Cao Xuan was a child, he could count all the fish at home on one hand.
After dinner, the old couple went out for a walk together. In the past two years, square dancing has become popular, and the old couple has found a new leisure activity.
Especially Sun Lan, as long as it doesn't rain, she can go out to dance at night and even become the vice-captain with the help of her home's mobile stereo.
She even secretly encouraged her son to write a square dance song, such as "The Most Dazzling National Style" and "Can't Afford to Hurt", which they were almost tired of dancing.
Cao Xuan is really thinking about whether to release a single, "Be filial to the elderly". If it spreads, it will be considered a good story.
I just haven’t thought about which song to choose, because it’s too natty and doesn’t fit Boss Cao’s tone. The melody is simple and lively, and the song should have as much positive energy as possible.
For example, he prefers "Sunshine Rainbow Little White Horse" by Da Zhangwei. The melody and lyrics are very consistent, cheerful and inspirational.
However, when the lyrics are spread abroad, it is easy to cause ambiguity. If he goes to the United States one day, others may take advantage of him.
Cao Xuan's personal favorite song "Do You Want to Dance" by the New Pants Band has a very upbeat melody. He thinks it's quite suitable for dance music and has an open-minded feeling, but he doesn't know if those elderly people can accept it.
If it doesn't work, just write "Little Apple" instead of singing it himself and find other singers to record it.
Looking back, he said that he studied square dancing specifically, and then wrote a song for his mother to dance to, and "accidentally" made it a hit.
Boss Cao feels more and more hypocritical, but who can refuse to show off calmly...
After his parents went out, Cao Xuan and his family gathered on the CCTV6 movie channel to watch the live broadcast of this year's Hundred Flowers Awards.
Cao Li was playing Fruit Ninja on her mother's phone, while Cao Yang was lying next to her sister watching.
"It seems you were also shortlisted this year."
Hu Jing asked while eating an orange. Cao Xuan nodded: "Cai E from "The Founding of the Party" was shortlisted for Best Supporting Actor."
"Male supporting actor, no wonder you don't go."
"It's not that the reward is small, but that it's troublesome."
When "New Police Story" was released, the Golden Horse Awards listed Cao Xuan as the Best Supporting Actor, and Cao Xuan refused to be shortlisted.
At that time, Cao Xuan had just entered the film industry, and it was a time when he needed to compete for a position, so he couldn't give in to many situations. But now, with his status and reputation, it doesn't matter what awards he gets, and no one will look down on him because of it.
The main reason why I didn't go was because I knew there was little hope of winning the prize, and tomorrow was the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I was too lazy to move and would rather go fishing at home.
In addition, Cao Xuan is also a little unhappy because his most promising film "Let the Bullets Fly" was almost completely wiped out in the mainstream awards.
There were 7 nominations for the Golden Horse Awards, but only one was nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay and Cinematography. There were 11 nominations for the Academy Awards, but it was outrageous that they only won one for Best Costume Design. Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers had no nominations.
This is the highest-grossing Chinese-language film, and it has received both good reviews and box office success.
If in the Mainland, the film cannot be nominated due to sensitive reasons, and the Golden Horse Awards have multiple nominations but only a few minor awards, it is clear that "Let the Bullets Fly" is targeted.
Lao Jiang was so nauseous. Fortunately, he was one of the top three European masters back then, so his mood was better than that of Feng Pants, but he was also a bit angry.
Cao Xuan is not too angry. He has won all the Grand Slams and is not obsessed with winning awards now.
I just think it's boring. Several awards shows in China do these tricks every year, so even if he was nominated for these awards, he didn't go there whether he won or not.
To put it bluntly, it's just a shame for those awards.
But he has this confidence, and some people have to endure their displeasure, because they can't do anything to Cao Xuan. On the contrary, if Cao Xuan wants to, he can make them suffer.
A few days ago, Cao Xuan has been pushing for the pop music Tianlai Award, which is now taking shape.
It may be officially put on the agenda at the Music Association Conference at the end of this year, and preparations will begin next year. The standards are extremely high, and it has the endorsement of multiple high-level departments and units. It may directly be one of the most valuable pop music awards in China.
Since Boss Cao can win a music award, who knows if he can win another film and television award.
Apart from other things, the Film and Television Artists Association will officially change its term next year, and his master Li Xuejian is basically designated as the new chairman.
Cao Xuan is also very likely to become the youngest vice chairman. Of course, he may consider avoiding suspicion and delay taking the position for a few years.
But there is no doubt that it will have a great influence on the Film and Television Association in the future, and will directly interfere in several awards such as the Golden Rooster, Hundred Flowers, and Huabiao.
They should be glad now that Cao Xuan's energy is more on the Music Association and the Tianlai Awards. If he had gone to the Film Association to take charge of the matter, their lives would not be said to be earth-shaking, but there would definitely be a lot of changes.
"Hey, Sissi and Mimi are both shortlisted, who do you think can win?"
Hu Jing asked with great interest, while Cao Xuan scrolled through his cell phone boredly, not recognizing the confidence of the Empress of the East Palace.
"You underestimate others too much. Xu Fan in "Tangshan Earthquake" or Sandra Ng in "Thieves of Time", which one is better, they may not be sure to win."
"The Hundred Flowers Award is based on audience voting. In terms of popularity, who can compare with the two of them."
Empress Xigong also felt that the fairy honey had a greater chance this time. Cao Xuan sneered, just listen to the voting. Only the judges know how effective it will be.
But in fact, he also agrees that Xianmi has a better chance, not because of popularity and votes, but because of Fanxing's public relations ability.
This is the best opportunity for both of them in recent years, and everyone is hoping for a new actress.
This matter started to be tinkered with half a year ago. If it can't be solved, Fanxing will not mess around. The key now is who will win the prize.
But no matter who he is, to Cao Xuan, he is still an artist among the stars, and his meat will rot in the pot.
"Lizi, let's make a bet. I bet Mimi will win."
Hu Jing provocatively launched a challenge to the Empress of the West Palace. Zeng Li definitely couldn't give in. "What are you betting on?"
The Empress of the East Palace touched her chin and thought about the bet. It was pointless to bet too hard for her family, and it was pointless to bet too light, and the two of them were not short of anything due to their wealth and status. After much deliberation, she decided to use Cao Xuan as a raft.
"Whoever loses will sleep alone next month."
"It's a bet."
Zeng Li hesitated but nodded. Only the person involved, Cao Xuan, was very dissatisfied. What did he think of him? He was the head of the family.
"Count me in. I bet on a double yolk egg that they both win the Best Actress award together. If I win, the three of us will sleep together. If we lose, you will sleep with me."
"Get out of here x 2."
After being beaten several times by the East and West Palaces, Cao Xuan still joined the bet as he wished, but the price was changed to pole dancing. If he won, the East and West Palaces would dance for him, but if he lost, he would dance for the East and West Palaces.
In order to prevent Cao Xuan from cheating, Hu Jing also confiscated his mobile phone, and then sent a special WeChat message to ask the senior management if Cao Xuan had made any special arrangements in advance. She was relieved after receiving a negative answer.
However, Cao Xuan was very undecided. He felt that his chances of winning were not small.
If he were Jiang Yue, and the company had contributed a lot, it would not look good if the award was given to anyone. If one person was happy to win the award, the other person would be dissatisfied.
The most comprehensive but also the worst way to do it is to make double yolk eggs. Maybe neither person will be happy, but at least they won't be extremely dissatisfied.
Boss Cao felt that he could still gamble. If he won, he would make money. If he lost, he would just dance. His wife had nothing to worry about, so it was just a little fun.
Several people were making noises, and the award ceremony officially began. Baihua didn't have many awards, but the one that came up was Best Newcomer.
Fanxing has two actors shortlisted, Chen Yao from "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" and Mao Xiaotong from "Love Is Not Blind".
The two of them were in the same class and entered Fanxing at the same time. They were nominated together again this time. They were really destined to be together. Even the host couldn't help but make fun of them.
Also shortlisted were two acquaintances of Cao Xuan.
Rong Xinda Li Xin, she played Comrade Yang in her youth in "The Founding of the Party". At this time, Li Xin was so green and lovely that even Boss Cao couldn't help but take a second look.
Another one is Zhang Zifeng from "Tangshan Earthquake", who plays the role of her childhood sister.
The award for "The Original Spacetime" was actually won by this little girl. She is also one of the few post-00s actors in the Mainland to win prestigious awards, but now there are some changes.
Chen Yao is so popular!
After "The Girls We Chased Together in Those Years" and "The Legend of Zhen Huan", he became a popular niche actor and was ready to top the charts.
In the second half of the year, he starred in "The Legend of Ancient Sword" with Zhao Xiaodao. He played the male protagonist Baili Tusu. His exposure resources are definitely the best among newcomers.
He was also shortlisted for the Hundred Flowers Best Actor this time, but the chances of winning the award were too low, so Fanxing wanted to give him the title of Best Newcomer.
He is popular, has a strong backing, and performs well. Everyone else is a supporting role. He is the first male lead, so there will be a certain bonus in the awards.
After calculating the comprehensive conditions, Chen Yao successfully won the award without any effort.
Both Best Director and Best Picture are Feng Trousers, which is not what many people expected. The results and quality of "Tangshan Earthquake" are here, and it can also be regarded as a main theme movie. The time, place and people are right.
The only one that can compete is "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party", but considering Mr. Han and the subject matter of the movie, it is normal to keep a low profile.
However, two important awards were won by Feng Pants, which also means that Xu Fan has an increased chance of being eliminated in the Best Actress competition.
Awards generally need to be balanced, and it is impossible for one family to get all the benefits. There may be a few exceptions occasionally, but they are by no means the norm.
Normally, the final winner is the best actor and best actress, and the order is first the winner, then the best actor, but this year is special, the Hundred Flowers Best Actor was awarded first.
To the surprise of most people, the winner of the best actor award was not Li Xuejian of "Yang Shanzhou" or Simon Yam of "The Thief of Times" whom many people thought, but Sun Jian of "33 Days of Love".
Cao Xuan himself did not expect this. Although Wen Zhang won the award in the original time and space, Wen was considered a first-line niche player at that time, and his reputation for strength was obvious to all.
The popularity and exposure are enough, and the director Teng is a backbone in the Beijing circle and has a good backing, so it is natural for him to win the award.
In comparison, although Sun Jian also had some confidence, he was not as good as Wen Zhang.
In addition to this Hundred Flowers Award, Fanxing's main public relations focus is on the actress, and the actor has also done a certain amount of work. However, since the most popular one is Li Xuejian, some concessions have been made.
Unexpectedly, Sun Jian actually got a little cold and counterattacked.
Even Sun Jian himself looked in disbelief, and then excitedly went on stage to receive the award.
Equally excited was Zeng Li, who was dancing in front of the TV. This was her first student to win the best actor award.
Seeing the students she single-handedly bring out so much glory, the pride and sense of accomplishment that arises from within are no less than when she herself won the Best Actress Award.
Well, it seems like she has never won the Best Actress Award...
However, when Sun Jian won the award, the Best Actress aspect was a bit confusing.
Cao Xuan's face was a bit dark. With Fanxing's public relations skills, it would not be difficult to win the Best Actress award, but it would be hard to say that two people have double yolks.
The Hundred Flowers Award Organizing Committee also knows very well what the biggest attraction of this year’s Hundred Flowers is, and the camera keeps lingering on Liu Tianxian and Damimi.
Liu Tianxian's expression was calm, but he could still hide his nervousness. Da Mimi was not much better. Although she was smiling, she was obviously a little stiff.
The awarding guest was Xiao Zhou, who was also a guest performer at this year's Hundred Flowers Awards. For the sake of ratings, this year's Hundred Flowers Awards were sacrificed.
"The winner of the 31st Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress is..."
Xiao Zhou took a look at the list and announced the answer in his tone of voice, which sounds cool to people he likes and pretentious to people he hates.
""33 Days of Love" Yang Mi."
"yeah!"
Hu Jing jumped up from the sofa and punched hard, almost scaring Cao Yang who was playing with Tom Cat.
As a result, before she could say anything to Empress Xigong, Xiao Zhou on the TV immediately added another sentence.
"Congratulations to both of you, Liu Yifei of "The Girls We Chased Together in Those Years."
"Hahaha."
This time, he became Boss Cao happily. As expected, it was indeed a double yolk egg.
Duan Shui Dafa, YYDS!
With a slap in the face, Cao Xuan looked at the East and West Ergong proudly: "Are you two dancing together, or are you doing it alone? You should also dress more formally. Don't mess with your pajamas..."
