Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

Gao Yuanyuan previously played a high school girl He Ling in "Love Spicy Hot Pot".

Although she only appeared on the screen for a short dozen minutes, her pure and moving image was quite eye-catching.

This time, "My Fair Princess" was a huge hit, and the character Ziwei she played once again won the hearts of the people with her pure and moving image.

In Hong Kong, the media likes to label those female stars with pure looks as "jade girls".

With the popularity of "My Fair Princess", Gao Yuanyuan was dubbed "mainland China's most pure and innocent girl" by Hong Kong media and received great popularity.

What followed was the "scandal" between her and Yang Ye. The media unraveled the mystery, trying to figure out how Gao Yuanyuan became famous.

In order to maintain Gao Yuanyuan's pure image, Yang Ye had to find a way to get himself out of it.

That's why he held this celebration banquet with great fanfare.

At today's celebration banquet, apart from having a brief conversation with Qiong Yao and her husband, Yang Ye was particularly interested in Zhao Ritian.

He sat with Zhao Ritian and chatted excitedly. The reporters were very excited and took pictures of them.

Gao Yuanyuan saw this and felt sour in her heart.

However, Yang Ye had given her a heads-up beforehand, saying that this was done intentionally to protect her image, so she could only endure it.

The other two beautiful girls in the crew, Fan Binbin who played Jinsuo and Lin Xinru who played Seya, were very envious when they saw how much Yang Ye favored Zhao Ritian.

The sudden popularity of a TV series is nothing. These days, making TV series is not profitable.

Being spotted by the Asian entertainment godfather Yang Ye and successfully breaking into the film industry means you have a truly promising future.

Zhao Ritian is a smart man and naturally understands this.

She was flattered by Yang Ye's favor and tried hard to please him.

In fact, Yang Ye initially thought about replacing Zhao Ritian as well and letting Jia Jingwen play Xiaoyanzi.

But later, because I didn’t want to interfere too much, and also because Zhao Ritian’s Little Swallow was too deeply rooted in people’s hearts and changing people might not work, I gave up.

When it comes to the mainland's "Four Great Dan Actresses", each has different requirements for men.

Zhang Ziyi's love history is the simplest, with four relationships, all clear and without any complications.

She has worked with many directors, most of whom are big names, and there have been no scandals involving them.

But she dated a foreigner, which was taboo.

Because having sex with foreign girls is glorious, but having sex with foreign girls is shameful.

She had been attacked by foreigners, so naturally her reputation was very bad.

Zhou Xun’s love history is the most complicated, and it would be a long list if you were to pull it out.

She doesn't distinguish between people and roles. She falls in love with whoever she's filming with. Every time she does it, it's a life-and-death experience, but in the end, she's left alone.

Xu Jinglei likes talented people. Handsomeness or money are not prerequisites.

Zhao Ritian likes rich people. His previous girlfriends were all second-generation rich, but in the end he found a driver.

Huang Xiaoming is Zhao Ritian's bootlicker. He once expressed his deep love to him but was rejected. Later, no matter how much he licked Zhao Ritian, he remained unmoved.

When filming Return of the Condor Heroes, Su Youpeng was completely bewitched by Zhao Ritian and couldn't help himself.

But Zhao Ritian was having a hot affair with a rich second-generation guy, and he could only watch from the sidelines.

When it came to filming "My Fair Princess", Su Youpeng took the initiative to give up the leading male role to He Shuhuan and played the second male role Du Fei.

Because he didn't dare to play the role of a couple with Zhao Ritian, for fear that he would get deeper and deeper into the trap.

Zhao Ritian's star power is unattainable by other female stars. The last female star who was so influential was Lin Qingxia.

She has a lot of loyal fans and they are very strong.

In the early days of the Internet, the crazy fans of the "Four Major Double Ices" often cursed at each other on platforms such as Tianya, Weibo, and Tieba.

The fans of Zhao Ritian’s family are enough to scold the fans of the other five families to the point of becoming autistic.

The other five companies combined are no match for them.

If Zhao Ritian could sincerely continue on the path of the entertainment industry, he would definitely become a superstar.

It’s a pity that this woman is too scheming and has too many complicated thoughts. Whenever she has the chance, she will try to climb up the social ladder.

Later, he did a series of outrageous things and finally got himself banned.

Yang Ye wanted to hide his relationship with Gao Yuanyuan and deliberately use Zhao Ritian to divert attention.

Zhao Ritian likes rich men, and Yang Ye is a super rich man, which immediately makes her heart beat fast.

The two of them hit it off immediately and chatted very enthusiastically, attracting a lot of people's attention.

Yang Ye didn't know whether Zhao Ritian would follow that old path in the future.

But as the most promising female star in mainland China, it is a pity that she fell.

So during the conversation, I took myself as an example and gave her a few warnings intentionally or unintentionally.

It simply means that if an actor continues on this path, he or she will be very respected.

You are very talented and lucky, and you have a good hand that starts off well.

I hope you will not let down this talent and luck, and the love of many audiences, and keep going.

Zhao Ritian was deeply moved by the earnest guidance of Yang Ye, a senior in the entertainment industry, and said that he would definitely work hard.

However, Zhao Ritian then lamented that the actress's youth has passed and her life cycle is too short.

Yang Ye told her that if that day really came, she could switch to a career behind the scenes if she was interested, such as becoming a director.

He also said that he is not as agile as he was when he was young, and he is gradually withdrawing from the big screen.

That’s all I have to say. There’s no point in saying more.

The next day, photos of the two meeting made the entertainment headlines, and reporters even exaggerated the story.

Yang Ye is a well-known LSP. After seeing the report, Zhao Ritian’s boyfriend Ye Maoqing felt that his girlfriend was in danger and had a big quarrel with Zhao Ritian.

Zhao Ritian felt very aggrieved, she felt that she was just chatting with Yang Ye.

Could she really refuse an entertainment tycoon like Yang Ye when he wanted to chat with her?
Moreover, during the conversation, Yang Ye gave her earnest instructions, cherished her talent, and fully demonstrated the demeanor of an elder.

How could he be as lecherous as the legend says?
……

A few days later, Yang Ye, Zhang Yimou and Yuan Heping went to the National Sports Center together to participate in the bidding conference for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

Their first draft was submitted more than a month ago, and today is the second round.

There were hundreds of teams participating in the first round of competition. After screening, all foreign teams were eliminated, leaving only five Chinese teams.

They are the Yang Ye/Zhang Yimou team, Kaizige team, Li An team, Zhang Jigang team, and Cui Jian team.

The five teams each presented their own plans, and the process was kept strictly confidential.

From the very beginning, Yang Ye knew that he would win without a doubt.

Because no one's plan can explain every link as clearly as his.

How will the opening ceremony start? How will the Olympic rings be displayed? What will be included in the cultural performances? What are the amazing ideas for the most watched torch lighting segment?

Yang Ye looked at all the Olympic Games in the past and found that the early ones were relatively crude.

After entering the millennium, due to the advancement of technology, almost every session has been extremely creative and the visual effects are particularly cool.

The creativity of the Beijing Olympics is not the most amazing one.

For example, among the five rings display, the most shocking one is probably the five steel rings of the London Olympics.

When the Olympic flame is lit, the most dazzling thing is probably the sunlight of the Rio Olympics.

It’s just that the creativity of each country is closely related to its own history and culture.

Take London's five steel rings for example, they show the industrial revolution that Britain is proud of. If you copy them directly, it will look out of place.

Therefore, Yang Ye's proposal was basically a copy of Zhang Yimou's ideas from that period.

Yang Ye asked Zhang Yimou to help him, firstly to save himself some trouble.

Secondly, the honor originally belonged to someone else, so give them a share.

During the presentation process, all the creative ideas of Yang Zhang's team were made into animated demonstrations.

Although it is simple, one can imagine how shocking it will be once it is restored.

In the end, the campaign proposal of Yang Zhang's team received the highest score.

……

Half a month later, Yang Ye and Zhang Yimou officially accepted the appointment letters issued by the Olympic Organizing Committee and became the chief directors of the opening ceremony of the 27th Olympic Games.

In his 25 years in the industry, Yang Ye has directed and starred in more than 30 films, which have not only won numerous awards but also achieved huge commercial success.

He once held the title of global box office champion, although he has now been surpassed by big ships.

With such a world-renowned superstar directing the Beijing Olympics, all sectors of society are full of confidence in him.

After Yang Ye was hired, the first thing he did was to reorganize the team.

The previous two rounds of competition brought together various top players. Although they were not selected, they were willing to contribute to the Olympics.

This time, the elites from all over the country will gather together to present a visual feast that will attract the attention of the world.

Some great people soon joined in.

For example, fireworks master Cai Guoqiang was invited to serve as the special effects director.

Chen Yan, who has been serving as the art designer for the Spring Festival Gala, was invited to serve as the art director.

Yang Ye basically selected people according to the list of the Olympic Games in the original time and space.

However, there are some exceptions, such as the aerial stunt director being replaced by Yuen Woo-ping from Cheng Xiaodong.

The costume director was changed from Eiko Ishioka to Emi Wada.

At that time, Zhang Yimou was looking for an American team to form a joint campaign team, and Ishioka Eiko was one of them.

Yang Ye didn't know her, so he invited Wada Emi, with whom he had worked before, and then invited a Chinese designer Li Jianqun to join.

In addition, due to Yang Ye's selfishness, he also brought in Yang Liping to serve as the stage designer.

When Zhang Yimou was hired as the chief director of the Olympic Games, he was still filming "Curse of the Golden Flower".

He had to do two things at once, running around in two places, and was busy as a dog. In the end, the quality of "Curse of the Golden Flower" was mediocre, which was also due to this reason.

Yang Ye is better off, as he has already finished his "Xiao Yao You" and is just waiting for it to be released.

So he returned to Hong Kong first, and after he finished the release of "Xiao Yao You", he devoted himself to the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

……

At the Queen Elizabeth Stadium, Nicholas Tse was singing heart-wrenchingly on the stage.

"Because I love you, I love you. Feelings don't have to be generous. No one needs to give me a good time. I want you now..."

Bluebird Music Group plans to help this guy perform at the Hung Hom Stadium, and will first warm up at the Queen Elizabeth Stadium to test the waters.

Elizabeth has more than 2,000 seats, making it very suitable for small or medium-sized concerts.

This concert was quite successful, fans were very enthusiastic and tickets were hard to come by.

The venue was filled with fans, holding Nicholas Tse's light signs and glow sticks, cheering hard, and the atmosphere was very warm.

Sitting in the front row were the brothers Yang Ritian and Yang Tu Dou, as well as girls including Jun Ji-hyun, Zhang Baizhi, and Cathy Cat.

The concert lasted for four hours and Nicholas Tse was sweating profusely while singing on the stage.

It was not until the event was successfully concluded that Nicholas Tse's agent, Huo Baozhu, breathed a sigh of relief.

After the concert, many fans were reluctant to leave and a bunch of reporters came to the scene.

Huo Baozhu arranged a substitute for Nicholas Tse to pass him off as the real one, helping him escape successfully.

……

In Kowloon Typhoon Shelter, Yang Tu Dou drove a yacht and headed deep into the sea with a small group of friends.

They planned to go out to sea to celebrate the success of Nicholas Tse's concert.

After singing for four hours straight, which was extremely exhausting, Nicholas Tse sat on the deck, enjoying the sea breeze, and asked, "Where are we going?"

Yang Ritian said, "We went to Dangan Island. Zhixian said she wanted to see macaques."

Jun Ji-hyun asked, "Are there really macaques there?"

"Of course there are. They are all over the mountains. Let's go there first and then go to the island tomorrow morning and watch the sunrise."

Nicholas Tse asked doubtfully, "That island doesn't seem to be under the jurisdiction of Hong Kong, right? Will the coast guard catch us?"

"This is my dad's boat, what am I afraid of?"

Tingfeng Xie felt relieved and suddenly said, "It seems that my godfather has returned to Hong Kong!"

Ri Tian cried out, and suddenly felt a little panicked, because they were secretly sailing Yang Ye's boat.

After a few seconds, he said nonchalantly: "Come back if you want, what are you afraid of!"

Nicholas Tse laughed and said, "As long as you are not afraid!"

Yang Ritian was really a little scared!
There is nothing wrong with driving Yang Ye's cruise ship, but if he drives the cruise ship to an island under the jurisdiction of the mainland and is stopped by the coast guard, it will be a troublesome matter even if he can get out by reporting his father's name.

Yang Ritian thought about it and suddenly said, "We just got rid of Sister Mani. She won't complain, right?"

Mani is Nicholas Tse’s agent, Huo Baozhu, who is also the agent of Zhang Baizhi and Jun Ji-hyun.

Several girls also started to worry.

Nicholas Tse said: "Don't worry, I have been fighting with Sister Mani for so long, I know her temper very well, she will never complain to her godfather."

"That's good!"

Everyone was relieved.

Yang Tu Dou dropped anchor not far from Danggan Island, preparing to land on the island in the morning.

Six people were on the deck, drinking and chatting under the starry sky.

……

At this moment, in a house in Kowloon.

Huo Baozhu was lying in Yang Ye's arms, her face flushed, looking extremely satisfied.

Yang Ye stroked the woman's smooth shoulders and asked, "Where did those bastards go?"

Huo Baozhu didn't want to complain, but she didn't dare to hide it, so she said, "They went out to sea!"

Yang Ye nodded: "As long as it doesn't disturb others, how is Lemon doing recently?"

Huo Baozhu said: "Now he knows that I am doing this for his own good, so he is more obedient to me. But he wanted to make his relationship with Zhang Baizhi public, and I kept trying to stop him, so he became dissatisfied with me again."

Yang Ye thought about it and said, "Let's make it public!"

Huo Baozhu was surprised and asked, "Ah?"

Generally speaking, it is not appropriate for this kind of teenage idol to announce their relationship.

Yang Ye smiled evilly and said, "I have arranged a movie for them called Twilight. Let Lemon and Bai Zhi play the male and female protagonists!

That way, they can create a scandal. Oh, there is also a young man named Chen Guanxi, who is very handsome, so he can be counted as one too!" (End of this chapter)
