Back at the company, Qi Zhongcai changed his slightly dissatisfied attitude and praised Huang Haiyu greatly, and highly recommended Huang Haiyu's acting talent to Zheng Qian. Although Huang Haiyu's ceiling was a bit low in terms of commercial value, his acting skills were impressive.
It’s really impressive. If you can win more awards, it’s not impossible to create a brand effect.
Zheng Qian smiled and said: "Uncle Ge Yunge introduced me, isn't it awesome?"
When Qi Zhongcai heard this, he laughed.
This time, he really fell in love with talent. When he heard that Huang Haiyu was now free, he immediately asked his assistant to prepare a contract and signed the dark role in "Crazy Stone".
Although he was not the leading role, the role was very eye-catching. Huang Haiyu did not refuse and signed the contract without saying a word, without even asking about the remuneration.
Now Qi Zhongcai appreciated it even more.
Zheng Qian said: "Teacher Huang, if you have time, please let me learn acting skills from you."
"Forget it about studying, let's learn from each other, learn from each other!"
Huang Haiyu didn't dare to make excuses, so he quickly said: "I watched "A World Without Thieves", Zheng Qian, your acting skills in the movie are very good, you have the feeling that you are already a blockbuster without making a splash."
Zheng Qian shook his head and smiled: "Uncle Ge told me that your acting skills are superb and asked me to learn from you."
Huang Haiyu had no choice but to agree, promising that he would be on call whenever Zheng Qian didn't understand anything.
…
In early March, Zheng Qian finally found time to prepare to report to the Military Arts Research Institute.
When the first day of school arrived, Zheng Qian was bundled into the car almost out of nowhere. Lou Ze promised various benefits. In addition to free time, Zheng Qian also guaranteed to improve Zheng Qian's military salary.
Years ago, Zheng Qian was promoted from the ninth level to the eighth level civilian cadre. It was Wang Chuanjun's operation, coupled with Zheng Qian's achievements in society and within the system, that led to this upgrade.
After studying under Lou Ze, Zheng Qian won many music awards one after another. In addition, he also endorsed the Communist Youth League and was named one of the top ten young people in China, which was another great honor.
Lou Ze said frankly that once this European tour achieves good results and has an international impact, it will almost be a certainty that Zheng Qian will be promoted to a seventh-level civilian cadre in the future.
Zheng Qian was astonished. It was said that civilian soldiers were promoted quickly, but he never expected that they could be promoted so quickly. He could be promoted to two levels in a row. It was not only unique, but also extremely rare.
However, compared with the existence of some fifth-level cadres who join the ranks, with Zheng Qian's current popularity and influence, the level of treatment in the cultural troupe is somewhat inconsistent.
After all, when Zheng Qian was recruited into the art troupe, no one expected that this person would achieve such a huge influence in just one year.
If Zheng Qian were specially recruited now, he would start as a sixth-level civil servant.
Especially now, Zheng Qian's influence is not only reflected in the music world, but also begins to penetrate into the film world.
In the past month since "A World Without Thieves" has been booming, Zheng Qian's phone calls have never stopped. They are all investors, producers, and directors who have money and no place to spend it. They want to
I want to make an appointment with Zheng Qian to collaborate on the next movie.
It can be said that not only Feng Xiaolong has become the top commercial film director in China with "A World Without Thieves".
Zheng Qian also became a favorite in the eyes of peers in the industry because of "A World Without Thieves", and even stories from the set of "A World Without Thieves" began to spread in the industry.
Without Zheng Qian's intervention, "A World Without Thieves" might have been stillborn.
Zheng Qian not only saved the script, but also had the courage to spend a huge sum of 20 million to take over the project. You must know that at that time, "A World Without Thieves" was facing regulatory review issues and there was a high probability that it would not pass the review.
And the facts proved that Zheng Qian was right in his bet.
"A World Without Thieves" has a monthly box office of 158 million, breaking the domestic box office history and becoming the highest box office of domestic movies. Zheng Qian invested 20 million, and it can be said that he has made a lot of money. So far,
, you can get at least 30 million in return.
20 million, and in less than half a year, the net profit was 30 million, which is simply incredible.
This is a legend!
And the spring of China’s film and television industry is really here!
Everyone firmly believed this, so capital from all parties began to enter the battlefield one after another.
The first people to be attracted are the top directors and actors in the industry, and Zheng Qian, as a group of people with successful experience, is naturally a target of being attracted.
It can be said that the coming year will definitely be a year in which a hundred flowers bloom.
All well-known directors will not be short of funds, but whether it can be as successful as "A World Without Thieves" still needs time to test.
Of course, Zheng Qian will not miss this opportunity. In the next year, with the crazy infrastructure construction of major theater chains, the number of screens in mainland China will double, and the market will expand again. Zheng Qian has no reason to turn a blind eye to such a large cash pool.
Therefore, Yuexiang Media has not only approved the projects of "Crazy Stone" and "I'm Not the God of Medicine", but will also continue to explore excellent scripts, and will immediately start various actions as soon as the box office funds of "A World Without Thieves" come back.
Of course, Zheng Qian does not want to bear the risk alone, but will also attract some capital to join the game and make money together.
For example, Teacher Lou Ze.
As soon as they met, Zheng Qian wanted to recruit Lou Ze to join him. For Zheng Qian now, besides Wang Chuanjun, his official backer is this mentor. The old man of the Lou family is now the dean of military arts.
His energy is amazing, and with the Lou family as his back, Zheng Qian doesn't have to worry about offending people he shouldn't offend, which will affect his future.
As the saying goes, it is good to enjoy the shade under a big tree. Zheng Qian was not a saint, so he was not immune to the vulgarity.
Besides, this is not a shameful thing. On the contrary, it is precisely because of the support of people like Wang Chuanjun and Lou Ze that Zheng Qian can run rampant in the entertainment industry unscrupulously, even if he is as powerful as Director Li of Xiangnan Satellite TV or Tan Xiong of Huaying Media.
, and did not dare to shoot Zheng Qian behind his back.
After arriving at school, Lou Ze personally came to pick him up.
Although Zheng Qian got out of the car early and walked up with a backpack slung across his body, even though he was wearing ordinary clothes and a peaked cap, which blocked the upper half of his face, he only revealed his perfectly curved jaw and his tall and tall body.
The shape has already attracted the attention of the students who are welcoming students.
Celebrities are good at skin care. Even Zheng Qian, with the help of his team and all kinds of sky-high-priced skin care substances, his skin is much tenderer than ordinary people. Coupled with Zheng Qian's diligent exercise, even though Zheng Qian is well hidden,
Still like a bright light in the dark night, I can't help but attract people's attention and attraction.
Many female students are reserved and only glance at it from time to time. They just find it pleasing to the eye and seem to make them happy all day long.
This was not because he recognized Zheng Qian, but because he simply thought the handsome man was eye-catching.
Zheng Qian waited for a while not far from the school gate before Lou Ze rode a motorcycle and parked in front of him.
Even though Lou Ze is a master's tutor, he is only in his early thirties and has a handsome appearance. He is one of the best-looking among the military art teachers. Because of this, he has a great reputation in the school.
Seeing Teacher Lou Ze picking up Zheng Qian, many students around him reacted suddenly, "Zheng Qian?"
"It's really Zheng Qian! Zheng Qian is Teacher Lou's student!"
"Yes, yes, last year I saw Zheng Qian and Teacher Lou having sex..."
"Wow! Zheng Qian came to the school to report, and he came alone. He is really not afraid of being kidnapped by a female pervert!"
"Looking at the hungry eyes of those seniors, (ˉ▽￣~) it's like they have never seen a man before!"
"The key is that Zheng Qian is indeed handsome, handsome, and talented... I am also attracted by it!"
"Quick, quick, go to school and have a look!"
A group of people's faces turned red with excitement. Then, the news spread, and soon, countless students from the Military Arts Academy swarmed in.
Lou Ze stood at the office window, looking at the bustling students downstairs, and said with a smile: "You are so popular. You can attract so many juniors just by showing off."
Zheng Qian held a warm tea cup in his hand and sipped slowly: "Being too popular is also a worry."
"I don't know how much I envy you for your troubles."
Lou Ze smiled and took out the five pieces of music written by Zheng Qian: "I have read all five pieces of music. They are very good and in line with your level. Especially the "Soviet March" is so majestic and makes people excited.
However, did you write the lyrics for this piece of music? I remember that you also specially wrote the lyrics for "March of the Iron Torrent"."
"There is a version of the lyrics, but it's in Russian, so forget it." Zheng Qian shook his head.
In fact, the lyrics of "Soviet March" are too difficult, and they are still in Russian. Even Zheng Qian cannot write them completely. Of course, if Lou Ze insists, Zheng Qian will complete the lyrics appropriately even if he cannot write them.
, even if it is not as good as the original version, it is still an explanation.
But after Lou Ze heard it, he did not insist. Military art has a choir and a performance group. If "Soviet March" cannot be used for chorus, then pure performance can also bring shocking effects to people.
"I have gathered nearly one hundred and seventy choir members and performance team members. They have started practicing and are just waiting for you to come and give guidance."
Lou Ze said: "We will rehearse for half a month, and at the end of the month we will charter a flight directly to six Eastern European countries. The first stop is the National Concert Hall in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. In fact, the first stop was originally Ukraine, but a color revolution was breaking out there.
, I canceled my trip to Ukraine after much thought.”
"This tour is mainly in Eastern Europe, explaining that if it gets an enthusiastic response, the tour may be extended."
Lou Ze said meaningfully: "The final destination is the Golden Hall of Vienna in Austria, if possible."
Zheng Qian had some enlightenment.
According to the teacher, military art performances started in Eastern Europe. The level of development of these countries cannot be compared with that of Europe as a whole, so they need to build momentum. If the performances in Eastern Europe get an enthusiastic response, then it will be obvious to negotiate for other music performances.
Much easier.
But isn’t this a bit too hasty?
Lou Ze obviously saw Zheng Qian's thoughts and explained: "Due to ideological reasons, our international image is not very good outside. Many people think that China is still in the agricultural era. This is not a joke, it is a fact.
"People in some European and American countries are very self-centered. The only channel for ordinary people to see the world is the media, and the media is in the hands of capitalism. Will they truthfully report the positive aspects of our socialist country?"
Zheng Qian nodded: "I understand."
"We also have national support behind this trip. Our tour also represents the image of our country."
Lou Ze said: "That's why I urge you to create more music that meets European and American tastes, such as "Steel Torrent March". If you want to integrate it and get attention and understanding, it will be obviously much easier."
Zheng Qian was silent for a moment and said, "Don't you think it's a drop in the bucket?"
Lou Ze laughed: "Even if it's just a drop in the bucket, it's worth it...it's always meaningful."
Zheng Qian looked at the teacher's smile and suddenly felt a sense of responsibility, which was heavy in his heart.
Before that, Zheng Qian had always had the thought of "being wise and protecting oneself". He always felt that achieving financial freedom, becoming famous in the entertainment industry, and becoming a celebrity was already a success.
But he suddenly discovered that as he stood higher, the scenery he saw and heard became more and more different.
Across the world, China is still a developing country, with 30 million truly poor people, and even more impoverished mountainous areas that have not been taken care of, and have never been exposed to modern civilization.
The fact that poverty alleviation has not been solved until 2020 is enough to show the difficulties here, and it is in vain to realize the grand dream of a moderately prosperous society for all people.
So, when will the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation be realized?
Zheng Qian has so much information flow in his previous life. If it is simply wasted and not realized, the value of these information flows will become less and less as time goes by.
At this moment, Zheng Qian suddenly had an impulse.
He wants to cast a wide net, sow the seeds of technology and civilization, and provide support so that these seeds can blossom and bear fruit at an accelerated rate.

I can't just focus on the entertainment industry, I should take a longer view.
We should prepare for the technological blockade our country will face in the future.
The public opinion positions lost around the world in the future must be regained as early as possible...
A small chat with Teacher Lou gave Zheng Qian a deep understanding of this era and himself, and he was ready to face all difficulties before a major change unseen in a century.
This is the meaning given to itself by the times.
With this thought in his heart, Zheng Qian suddenly felt that everything became brighter.
Next, Lou Ze took Zheng Qian to the first-grade graduate class.
The Military Academy of Military Arts has five professional master's degree granting points, namely journalism and communication, music, drama, dance and fine arts.
The class taught by Lou Ze is a music major, but because the number of students is small, the music and dance classes are combined into one class.
The class has no practical significance. You still work with the instructor. The class is just for the convenience of unified management.
Zheng Qian's arrival made the music and dance graduate students very excited. They all rushed back after hearing the news.
However, because Zheng Qian is a public figure and has a busy schedule, Lou Ze took Zheng Qian to introduce him to the class, then left without hesitation and went to the rehearsal hall to start preparations for the upcoming tour in Eastern Europe.
