"They were traveling in Hong Kong recently, and I met them." Yang Daming took the initiative to reply to Tang Yan's words. She was trying to show goodwill in disguise, after all, Tang Yan was so popular.

"It's really cool." Tang Yan sighed.

"Xixi, do you know how popular the song "Human Fireworks" is?" Yao Beina asked Liu Yifei.

"I know. It's the video with the most likes on Douyin and has been at the top of the QQ music charts for a long time." Liu Yifei smiled.

"Not only that, recently, the aunties in the park near where I live no longer sing Phoenix Legend's songs when they dance in the square at night, but your "Fireworks in the World" instead."

"Ah, my song is suitable for square dancing?" Liu Yifei was a little dumbfounded. This didn't match her style at all.

"Yes, I asked them. The aunties said that "Fireworks in the World" has a bit of the feel of songs from the 80s. They really like it."

"Xixi, do you want to compete with Phoenix Legend for the title of the God of Square Dance?" Shu Chang covered his mouth and teased.

Phoenix Legend has never lost in square dancing, and only Chopstick Brothers briefly stole their limelight with "Little Apple".

"It's not that I can't do it. Let's go sing." Liu Yifei stood up and waved her hand in an imposing manner. With Yao Beina here today, it would be a waste not to sing.

A group of people came to the singing room and started their karaoke journey.

After several guests had sung, Liu Yifei picked up the microphone and waved to them: "I'll sing 'Fireworks in the World' for you."

Tang Yan clapped her hands and cheered, "Please welcome the movie queen."

One of the hot topics in China recently is that Zhang Yang was recognized by that man as the movie emperor. Although it was a joke, everyone still talked about it.

Shu Chang and the others also clapped and cheered.

"Go, go, go, what movie queen? That's so ugly."

Liu Yifei started singing after she finished speaking.

The four of them looked at Liu Yifei's expression and laughed even louder. If you think it sounds ugly, why do you look so bright?

Yang Daming was laughing when she heard the lyrics of "Human Fireworks". She felt so sorry that the good times were short and no one seemed to be talking about it, and she suddenly became quiet again.

She had just recently completed divorce procedures with Liu Kaiwei in the Maple Leaf Country, and was deeply touched by this song.

Everyone in this world is just a firework, fleeting in a flash. We should cherish the present and grasp life.

Thinking about her gambling journey in the past few years, she had indeed lost a lot. This time in Beijing, she wanted to find someone to chat with, and she found that apart from Liu Yifei, there were no other good candidates.

She also didn't expect that there would be so many people at Liu Yifei's place. Based on today's casual conversation, she had a rough idea of ​​the situation and estimated that no one expected her to come.

After Liu Yifei finished singing, Yang Daming took the initiative to sing passionately. She sang so absorbedly that even Tang Yan frowned secretly. This was not like the Yang Daming she knew.

Under the influence of Yang Daming, several people sang so happily that they forgot the time.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Hongyi returned home from school. He ran to the west courtyard hall as usual, but his mother was not there. He opened the study door again, but there was still no one inside.

Don’t ask why you didn’t knock on the door. The big devil wasn’t at home, so was there any need to knock on the door?

After asking my aunt, I found out that my mother and her friends were singing. The little guy quickly ran to the singing room, and as soon as he opened the door, he heard the howling of ghosts and wolves.

Yang Daming sang in a clip-like voice:

She sang about meeting an old friend in a foreign land

Every step and every word is lovesickness

Shu sings the next line:
The people in the audience have the correct title on the gold list
I never recognized my old acquaintance on stage
Among the five people who sang today, Yao Beina has no problem singing in opera style, Liu Yifei can say a few lines, and the others can't sing at all. When they sing the chorus of the song "Looking into the Window", it's like ghosts howling!

The little guy quickly covered his ears with a look of disgust on his face.

The five people found him when Zhang Hongyi opened the door, and saw him covering his ears and stopping singing.

Zhang Hongyi also stepped forward and called people one by one. Shu Chang and the others saw that Zhang Hongyi had already finished school, and felt that it was getting late, so they immediately stood up and said goodbye.

When Yang Daming was walking out, she looked at Liu Yifei and her son talking and laughing, and her heart suddenly felt a little sad. She missed Xiao Nuomi a little.

Fortunately, when they divorced, she had a backup plan. It was okay for him to raise the child, but you couldn't get married again.

Based on her understanding of Liu Kaiwei, he couldn't bear it, and it would be just a matter of time before she could get custody of the child, no matter what the cost.

The next afternoon, Liu Yifei was accompanying her son in the amusement park, but she would look at her mobile phone from time to time.

Zhang Hongyi, who was having fun, saw that his mother looked absent-minded, so he ran to her and asked, "Mom, what are you looking at?"

"Your father is coming back."

The little guy was shocked. What? The big devil is coming back? But he changed his mind and thought that he had memorized ancient poems on time. What was there to be afraid of? He also thought that he hadn't seen him for more than half a month and actually missed him a little.

He immediately walked out of the amusement park and held Liu Yifei's hand: "Let's go out and wait for him."

Liu Yifei laughed twice when she saw Zhang Hongyi's reaction. Zhang Yang was usually so strict with him, but she didn't expect the little guy still missed him. After all, father and son are connected by heart.

"Let's go." Liu Yifei took her son to the west courtyard hall.

At almost four o'clock, there was a noise outside the house.

"You can go back now. By the way, remember to collect the news about Oppenheimer."

"it is good."

As the voice ended, Zhang Yang walked into the West Courtyard Hall. Zhang Hongyi, who was sitting on the sofa watching his tablet, immediately stood up and ran to Zhang Yang upon hearing the noise.

Zhang Yang picked up his son and played with him for a while, while Liu Yifei watched with a smile beside him.

"Have you studied ancient poetry well during this period?"

"I have memorized all the 300 Tang poems," Zhang Hongyi said proudly.

"Really?" Zhang Yang was a little surprised. Zhang Hongyi had only been memorizing ancient poems for about 100 days, so his speed was pretty good.

"Then start reciting Song poems." Zhang Yang shook the little guy in his arms and made a decision for his future studies.

"There are also poems from other dynasties. I want to memorize them." Zhang Hongyi shook his head frantically in disagreement. The poems were so long that he would not memorize them.

"Okay, we just got back today, don't talk about this." Liu Yifei came to the rescue of her son.

Zhang Yang put Zhang Hongyi down, and the little guy ran out quickly. He shouldn't have come to see the big devil.

The little guy left just in time, so Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei could spend some time alone. After packing their luggage, they sat on the sofa in the hall and chatted.

When he heard from Liu Yifei, Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng got married, and Yang Daming and Liu Kaiwei divorced.

"What a coincidence, the time is about the same?"

"Zhao Liying is on the 16th. Yang Daming went to the Maple Leaf Country to attend the Toronto Film Festival this year. It should be in September or October."

"The media has found out the time of divorce so clearly?" Zhang Yang felt surprised.

"Secretary Li investigated, how could he not know? She is hiding this from others? I asked him to investigate because she suddenly came to visit me."

"Wow, my secretary, are you using her smoothly?" Zhang Yang hugged Liu Yifei, a little curious.

"Just let him check the news and see if there's anything he's used to or not."

The next morning, Zhang Yang came to the studio. Today was Sunday, and only Weibo and the private team were there.

He looked at both departments and went to the lobby, but Secretary Li followed him out.

When he arrived at the lobby, he reported to Zhang Yang: "ByteDance raised funds again on the 20th of this month.

They knew that you were in the United States, so they didn't bother you. They just sent the details to the studio."

"What's the valuation?" Zhang Yang nodded. He didn't care about these things.

"800 billion US dollars." Secretary Li looked surprised.

At 800 billion US dollars, ByteDance’s valuation has exceeded Baidu’s market value.

Think about it, his boss paid $2 million for 10% of the non-dilutable shares, which is now worth $80 billion. Although it has only appreciated 40 times, the base is large, and ByteDance’s current valuation is obviously not the end point.

A satisfied smile appeared on Zhang Yang's face. This was really good news.

What they didn't know was that ByteDance was only valued at more than 750 billion US dollars this time. Zhang Yang helped ByteDance plan the Spring Festival activities and allowed Douyin to start movie promotion in advance, which greatly increased the company's valuation.

"Zhang Yiming did a good job."

"Zhang Nan did a good job too." Secretary Li heard Zhang Yang praising Yi Ming and took the initiative to praise his girlfriend.

The two of them are now officially together, so naturally he has to praise his girlfriend.

"Are you paying close attention to Douyin? This company is already mature, and there's no need for us to pay too much attention to it." Zhang Yang frowned when he heard Secretary Li talking about Guan Nan, thinking that he had been paying attention to ByteDance's progress.

The energy of a private team is limited. Isn't it a waste of resources to pay so much attention to it?

"Okay." Secretary Li did not argue. There was no need for him to pay special attention. He was with Zhang Nan every day and could not tell him most of his work matters. He listened to Zhang Nan talking about some not-so-confidential things, so he naturally knew more.

The assistant listened to Secretary Li's words and smiled mysteriously. Secretary Li had fallen in love, but he didn't even know that for working people, wise people don't fall in love.

Secretary Li turned around and left after finishing his report.

The assistant told him about the situation of "Oppenheimer" in China.

On the first day of its release in China, "Oppenheimer" had a 30% screening schedule.

"So little?" Zhang Yang asked as soon as the assistant finished his first sentence.

"The movie time is too long. We can show two other movies instead of Oppenheimer." The assistant also felt helpless. This is the reality of the cinema.

If the movie wasn't directed by Zhang Yang, it would be good if he could have 15% of the screening time.

In the first two days of its release, it earned 4800 million and 9500 million respectively. The domestic box office estimate for this film is 7.5 million.

"It seems that this movie will not have much to look forward to at the domestic box office." Although Zhang Yang already knew the result, he still felt disappointed.

“This is a cold period. The ten movies that were released on the same day as ours all performed poorly.
Boss, this art film of yours is already the best performance.”

After that, the assistant told Zhang Yang about the other ten movies.

All ten movies are bad, nothing to say.

Among them is a movie called "Writing Poems for You". Although the movie is bad, the song of the same name is quite nice.

Apparently Wu Kequn also wanted to make some money based on his sentimentality, but he didn't realize it.

"Boss, you have to hold two post-movie roadshows at Wanda CBD Cinema this afternoon and tomorrow afternoon." The assistant reminded Zhang Yang of his schedule again.

"Okay." Zhang Yang said and went home.

A little after four in the afternoon, at Wanda CBD Cinema in Beijing.

Zhang Yang was sitting backstage playing with his phone. After a while, a theater staff member came over to remind him that he could go to the front desk.

Zhang Yang nodded and went to the screening room.

At this time, in the screening room, the audience who had just watched the film were discussing the matter.

"I don't understand it. It's like watching over a hundred trailers. What about you?"

"I can feel that this is a good movie, but the threshold for watching it is too high, and there are many people I don't even know."

"The whole movie feels interesting only in the last hour. The first two hours are too boring."

"After watching the movie, my favorite character is Scarlett. She confronted the prosecutor and was unwilling to shake hands with Taylor in the end. Her performance was really good."

"Depp and Leo are the most interesting ones."

At this time, a theater manager walked onto the stage, and many security guards came in and surrounded the stage.

When the audience saw this scene, they immediately understood that someone from the "Oppenheimer" crew had arrived, and Zhang Yang must be one of them.

His plane was parked at Beijing International Airport and someone had already taken photos of it.

"Is Oppenheimer good?" the theater manager asked the audience loudly.

"It looks good." xN.

Although many people find it boring, they still have to give face to a star who comes, especially when that person might be Zhang Yang.
