China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 953: The Concubine Selection Sweeping Asia
Jiangdong Entertainment and Penguin Entertainment, two giants, have joined forces to anchor the latest talent show project in Asia.

It has already caused a huge uproar.

It's not just the Chinese mainland, but also Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Even the girls from neighboring East Asian countries such as Japan, Tyrande, and Vietnam were very excited.

In just ten years, Jiangdong Entertainment has grown into an internationally renowned media giant.

The long-term output of hit film and television works is even more famous than Penguin Studios.

During this period, countless stars were made famous by the Grand Commander of Jiangdong.

The age group targeted by the Asian Amateur Open Auditions is exactly the age when young girls love to dream.

Who doesn’t want to stand beautifully on the stage, shining under the spotlight, and receive flowers and applause from countless fans?
Even some rich girls were tempted.

A luxurious villa in Shanghai.

An oval-faced cute girl tiptoed into the luxuriously decorated study, blinking her big, adorable eyes and pestering her father:

"Dad, do you think your daughter is pretty?"

Boss Yu, as the person in charge of a mining group, is handsome and used to giving orders. He has the aura of a superior who is intimidating without even getting angry.

But in front of his little cotton-padded jacket, he is just like any old father in the world and has no way to do anything.

Boss Yu smiled dotingly, "My daughter, Yu, needless to say, is the most beautiful in the world."

"Oh, it's not as exaggerated as you say. It's still a little worse than Liu Tianxian and Nazha."

The cute girl with a round face twisted her hair with her fingers and laughed hesitantly.

She had very cute bags under her eyelids. She pulled Zhongdeng's arm and shook it. Her voice was so sweet that it was almost fatal. "Dad, what do you think about me participating in the Rocket Girls 101 audition?"

"What draft?"

Boss Yu was slightly stunned.

"It's a talent show jointly organized by Tencent and Jiangdong Entertainment."

"Why is this happening again?"

Boss Yu suddenly felt a headache: "What's so good about participating?"

The family assets exceed 10 billion, which can be considered a wealthy family in China.

Boss Yu has put a lot of thought into his daughter's training and has planned the path very clearly.

I went to the top private school in Shanghai for elementary school and to a new village for middle school to develop the ability to live independently.

After graduating from Shinchon University, I was originally scheduled to intern in the family business, accumulate experience, and gradually move up to management level.

But the rebellious daughter insisted on pursuing her dream of entering the entertainment industry.

He also clamored to make a name for himself like his idol, the Grand Commander.

The accumulation of several generations of your father's and grandfather's families is somewhat inferior to the current size of the Grand Commander of Jiangdong.

Although both of you have the word "fish" in your name, they are giant great white sharks, while you are just a small fathead fish in the pond.

Boss Yu didn't believe from the bottom of his heart that his daughter could achieve anything.

Out of love for his little girl, he did not discourage her enthusiasm, but mainly expressed encouragement with his words.

After his daughter returned to China, he used some of his connections.

The year before last, he was squeezed into the crew of "New Border Town Prodigal Son" and made an appearance. Last year, he was arranged to join Mango TV's variety show "First Grade Graduation Season".

After this series of operations, there was no splash and he remains an unknown figure.

Now, here comes a new idea.
Boss Yu was confused. He took his daughter's phone and looked at the news.
"Penguin Pictures will join hands with Mingjie and Bilibili to create an unprecedented girl group in the history of China's Internet. The operation team will build it from four aspects: music, fan groups, variety shows, and commercials."

Mingjie is a multi-billion-dollar media giant and the backbone of the Jiangdong Group.

Bilibili is about to go public, and after several rounds of financing, it has completely established its position as the leading video platform.

Boss Yu's company was established in Shanghai, and he was in the same circle as Tian Ming, the CEO of Shanghai Prince Mingjie, several times.

We are just friends over a cup of wine, but I can't say we are that close.

After some gentle words to comfort her, Boss Yu saw that his daughter was in high spirits and tactfully persuaded her, "Xinxin, how about we just forget it?"

"Why?"

The cute girl with a round face pouted her lips.

"Look, this doesn't mean we're going to hold auditions for the entire Asia."

Boss Yu analyzed in a gentle voice: "There may be tens of thousands of people participating in the competition. The competition is too fierce. How many rolls will there be by then?
Our family has the conditions, why don’t we endure the hardship? If you want to develop in the entertainment industry, dad will definitely support you. You can also ask friends to find connections to arrange for you to try a few crews and programs. If it doesn’t work out, we can come back home to work. Dad will always be your strongest supporter.”

If the subordinates saw that Boss Yu, who is known as the living devil, had such a gentle side, they would probably question their lives.

Boss Yu took over the family business and has been in the business world for many years. He has also experienced the corruption in the entertainment industry.

Deep down, I don't want my daughter to fall into this quagmire. I just want her to avoid it a few times and when her interest fades, I will go home and take over.

She then gave earnest instructions and patient guidance, hoping to lead her daughter back to the right path.

Little did he know that this teaching full of life wisdom, when heard by his daughter, would become “Aba Aba. Dad supports you. Aba Aba.”

The round-faced cute girl's eyes were firm, like the light of an incandescent lamp: "Dad, so, you don't object to me participating in the talent show?"

"I"

"Then I'll leave the ideological work on my mother to you."

"."

Boss Yu opened his mouth, but ultimately couldn't resist his daughter's expectant look.

With a soft heart, he nodded helplessly and dotingly: "Then go and give it a try."

Shenzhen Art School.

The bell rang for the end of get out of class.

Several boys ran past the corridor, deliberately making a lot of noise.

"Pfft."

Sitting by the window was a chubby girl wearing glasses. She was no longer surprised by the childish behavior of these boys.

He just wants to use these exaggerated behaviors to attract the attention of a beautiful girl.

The girl with glasses poked the girl next to her with her elbow and whispered, "Hey, Lian Xin, I'm here to see you again."

"The campus beauty of our art school, her beauty is as beautiful as the country."

"Face your head."

My deskmate Hu Lianxin brushed the hair by her ear and rolled her eyes, thinking it was so noisy and annoying.

I have to say, even when the beauty rolls her eyes she is very pleasing to the eye. A boy outside stared at her so hard that he bumped into the person in front of him and fell to the ground.

"Baby, if I were a boy, I would definitely chase you"

After another commotion, the girl with glasses reached out and pinched Hu Lianxin's thigh, saying with envy and jealousy, "Look at this face, look at these legs, they are more upright than me."

Well, as expected of a dancer, her hands are really good.

"I'm going to kill you."

Hu Lianxin instinctively pressed her legs together and clamped them together, and immediately fought back, attacking the fat girl's chest with a coquettish look.

The two girls laughed and played around, enjoying the leisure time at the art high school, and then talked about the hottest entertainment topic at the moment.
"I watched "The Shameful Iron Fist" last night and laughed so hard that my stomach hurt. It's a pity that Shen Teng had very few scenes."

"'Ex-Files 3' is also good. The song sung by Yu Wenwen is really nice."

"Hey, who do you think is more suitable to play Mulan in the filming of Governor Zhou?"

"That must be the first sister?"

"Bullshit, Liu Tianxian is the chosen Mulan."

The two girls in the front seat also leaned over, one was a fairy and the other was a little lion, and they had a passionate battle on the spot.

Compared to those ordinary high schools with endless papers to do, the learning atmosphere in art schools is not that strong.

Especially many precocious girls, they are more eager to bring their talents to the entertainment industry.

"Look, this is a talent show hosted by Tencent and Jiangdong Mingjie."

The fat girl was scrolling through TikTok and saw the news about the talent show's chief director Long Danni giving a passionate speech on stage. She immediately became excited and urged, "Lian Xin, you have such good qualifications, why don't you just participate in the talent show and debut? I saw a few days ago that there will be an audition next week."

"I'm not going. I want to take the entrance exam for Beijing Film Academy."

Hu Lianxin said.

"Are you stupid? There is no conflict. If you are selected, you may be able to take off. If you are not selected, it will not affect the exam next year."

"9494, maybe you can debut through a talent show and have a chance to become a mermaid. Didn't Boss Long say that there's a chance to get a role in a Jiangdong film and television project?"

"I want to be a mermaid. It doesn't matter if I sleep with Zhou Yutang and live in his big villa."

"Are you making a wish here?"

There was a lot of chatter, and Hu Lianxin was a little moved.

The title of the domestic entertainment emperor is not just an exaggeration, he is popular with young Asian women and girls.

He has just been voted as the "Most Charming Man of 2017" by an influential fashion magazine. The entire selection received more than million votes, and finally the Grand Commander of Jiangdong stood out and won the top spot.

The fat girl pushed her glasses up on her nose and analyzed, "Look at senior sister Liu Yase. Didn't she debut through a talent show? She's doing pretty well now and even acted with Zhu Yilong."

Shenzhen Art School is a key art technical secondary school in Guangdong Province, specializing in music and dance.

In her early years, Fairy Zixia Zhu Yin once learned the basics of dance at Shenzhen Art Institute. Ren Qi, a rising star who signed with Guangguang, also graduated from Shenzhen Art Institute.

Such as Li Yundi, Chen Sa, Zhang Haocheng and others, who have indeed trained a lot of talents.

Several girls in blue and white school uniforms gathered together and chatted, and finally agreed: "Next weekend, we will go to the Shenzhen audition site to sign up."

"Are you going with Lian Xin?"

"Then go."

Such a scene happened simultaneously countless times after Tencent and Mingjie made the official announcement.

There are so many young girls who dream of making their debut.

Even in places like Tyrande, Neon, and Vietnam, many girls who want to pursue their dreams are getting restless.

However, the rules officially announced by Tencent's vice president in charge of the project stated that South Korean players would not be accepted, which immediately caused an uproar on the South Korean server.

"Ashiba, why don't you open up registration for South Korea!?"

"Protest! Protest! We want to participate too!"

"."

The discussion about this matter on the Internet intensified, and a bombshell was dropped, causing widespread controversy on South Korean social media.

"Boss, the reaction in South Korea is huge."

"Oh, what do you say?"

Zhou Yutang felt that something was wrong with his secretary during this period.

When asked to make a year-end work summary PPT, her hands or legs either felt sore and she smelled like a desk clerk.

Asking her to work with Zhou Shufang to do a special report on Tencent's talent show made her very enthusiastic.

When he saw the beautiful sister, his smile was like a spring breeze, and his eyes lit up. I don’t know where he learned this bad habit.

Chen Duling laughed and said: "Many people in South Korea specially registered accounts and came to the program's official website to protest."

Gangnam South Korea branch collaborated with CJ on "Produce 101", and the show became an instant hit.

The girl group IOI is extremely popular. One of its members, Zhou Jieqiong, has returned to China to develop her career and is also a guest mentor on major talent shows.

As for Kang Daniel, who has created millions of sales, he is the most outstanding super newcomer in the Korean entertainment circle in the past two years.

Pei Yun is in charge of all these matters, and she is a capable person.

Giving her a platform, she really made some progress.

After tasting the sweetness of its initial venture into talent shows, the original Korean version of the program is planning to collaborate with Japan’s AKB48 to launch “Produce 48.”

For Governor Zhou after ByteDance's rise to fame, these are nothing but small profits.

Zhou Yutang at most asked about the interim results. He had already given a hint and asked Tencent to obtain the copyright of the program model.

It is specifically handed over to Wajijiwa CEO Long Danni for operation. She is also from the Mango TV series and is very capable.

"Produce 101" became a huge hit, and the copyright model was introduced to many countries, such as Japan's "PRODUCE 101 JAPAN", Thailand's "CHINA", etc.

Therefore, the Chinese version of "Produce 101" is a legal adaptation and there is no such thing as plagiarism.

Oranges grown in Huaibei become sour, and although two giants, China's Goose Factory and Jiangdong, have joined forces to organize this talent show, its scale and size are incomparable to South Korea's.

South Korean fans were excluded this time because of the ban on Korean culture.

Although there are no explicit regulations from above, the red lines are drawn and everyone knows what they are.

Korean artists no longer have any commercial value to tap into in China.

Even Yu Xiaoguang’s wife Qiu Xiuyan, who played the role of Stone Guanyin.

He used to be doing well in China, but now he doesn’t receive any business invitations and has to gradually shift the focus of his career back to South Korea.

When all is said and done, there is always light in the west. The variety show I starred in with my husband unexpectedly became a hit.

Brother Xiaoguang, who debuted as a sports student, is a sunny and cheerful big boy. He is also very gentle to his wife. He performed very well in the show, making a lot of South Korean young women envious.

It gave us Chinese men a chance to win honor.

Zhou Yutang doesn't usually watch variety shows, but his secretary likes it and occasionally mentions this variety show called "Same Bed, Different Dreams" to him.

There are also South Korean politicians who bring their wives to the show, focusing on being down-to-earth.

This is a digression. Let’s get back to the talent show. No matter how much the South Korean fans protest and make a fuss, it will not affect the results at all.

Zhou Yutang thought they were just barking dogs. He took the tablet handed to him by the secretary and glanced at the candidates who had been initially shortlisted.

Since it is a talent show that promotes people, the benefits will certainly not go to outsiders.

The contestant's contract must be signed with a new agency jointly established by Jiangdong Group and Tencent, in which Zhou Shufang also has shares.

Capital operation is not a charity, its ultimate goal is to realize profits.

Some of the good talents in the Jiangdong database will be signed in advance as seed players and then given resources.

"Boss, I have a question."

"You said."

"What if a Korean-American girl like Jessica participated in the talent show?"

"The rules clearly state that this is only open to the Asian region."

Zhou Yutang glanced at the secretary casually, put down the tablet in his hand, turned around and called Guo Fan.

This time he took leave from the crew and was invited to Jinling to attend the signing ceremony of the Jiangsu City Super League.

"The Wandering Earth" is still filming, and several special effects teams are working at full capacity and are already doing rendering.

It was just a bit rushed, so the visual effect of this part is not satisfactory, so I have to take it back and do it again.

There's no way, the Grand Commander of Jiangdong is so strict.
