One person's entertainment

Chapter 119, Almost Vomited

Early the next morning, Shen Lingyou bought a few Yanjing newspapers on his way to school.

But nothing happened like last night. I guess the police arrived before the conflict happened.

The mission had been completed, the reward received, and he was too lazy to care about the follow-up.

Today, it has been exactly two months since the release of the album "Spark".

Total sales exceeded 300 million copies, with sales in both the mainland and Taiwan exceeding one million copies.

He also became the first mainland singer to have a single album sales of over one million in Formosa Province, and his three albums combined made him the best-selling mainland singer in Formosa Province.

However, in the Golden Songs Dragon and Tiger Chart (statistics for Taiwan Province), local singers still have the home advantage, with her 3-week championship lagging behind Zhang Huimei's 4-week championship.

However, he surpassed Zhang Huimei and took the top spot for one week on the IFPI record sales chart (Statistics Asia), after all, he sold more total sales.

What surprised Shen Lingyou was that the sales in Japan exceeded 5 copies, and the sales in South Korea also reached 2 copies.

Don't underestimate it, this is a good start.

The Japanese album will be released in the middle or late part of this month, and the promotion on Jiaobenji has already started.

There are currently no plans to release a Korean album. The popular music style in South Korea is quite alternative, mostly songs by boy and girl groups. He has listened to quite a few of them, but none of them are in his memory. If he wants to earn Korean won, he needs to find another way.

He also has a rough plan, which he will start implementing next year or the year after.

But it’s not absolute. If you get the resources of Korean songs through system tasks, you must release them.

When I arrived at the classroom, I saw a group of people gathered together and I didn’t know what they were doing.

Shen Lingyou also had a curious heart, so he moved over.

Zhang Ziyi was seen lying on the desk sobbing, while the classmates beside her were trying to comfort her.

Shen Lingyou didn't understand what happened. Was he heartbroken? It didn't sound like that from their words, so he patted Zeng Xiaolai's shoulder and asked softly, "Laizi, what's wrong?"

Zeng Xiaolai pulled him aside and explained softly, "It's like this..."

It turned out that Zhang Ziyi was stood up by Zhang Yimou again and felt aggrieved.

At the end of last semester, Zhang Yimou had a shampoo commercial in hand. They found several freshmen from the Central Academy of Drama to be models. Zhang Ziyi was one of them. The assistant director felt that her hair was black, thick and loose, which was particularly suitable for a shampoo commercial.

After the interview, Zhang Ziyi was chosen, but when filming started, he was replaced by someone else.

When asked, they said that the investor thought that the ad was only 30 seconds long and did not require any acting skills, so they used the daughter of an internal staff member.

Zhang Ziyi didn't even wait for Zhang Yimou's explanation and returned home disappointed.

Summer vacation came soon after, and Zhang Yimou was going to invest in a movie "Go to Yanjing Now". This time he was the director and the one who chose the actors himself, so he asked the assistant director to invite Zhang Ziyi to star in the movie.

Zhang Ziyi was of course very happy when he received the notice, and waited at home for the filming to start. However, after the summer vacation was over, Zhang Yimou's assistant called him belatedly last night and said, "This movie will not be filmed anymore."

Zhang Ziyi immediately asked why the film was not being filmed anymore, and the assistant said that the investors felt that this subject had no market and no prospects, so they would not invest any money.

Once again her hopes were dashed. Zhang Ziyi was extremely depressed and cried all night. This morning, when she came over, Mei Ting and several of her roommates told her about what happened. They all tried to comfort her, which brought back tears of grievance.

After hearing this, Shen Lingyou didn't know how to describe this matter for a moment.

Seeing that he remained silent, Zeng Xiaolai tugged at his clothes and said, "Go and comfort him. Your words are more effective than ours."

Shen Lingyou raised his eyebrows. Is there such a saying? Then he followed her over and looked at Zhang Ziyi, whose eyes were swollen from crying. He said, "Ziyi, everyone will always encounter some setbacks when doing everything, and behind every failure is actually a greater success..."

When he talks about this theory, it's really a set of logic.

Just fill Zhang Ziyi with chicken soup for the soul.

Not to mention the person involved, Zhang Ziyi, even the people around him felt that if one does not fail a few times before succeeding, it cannot be considered a true success.

Shen Lingyou saw that the matter was settled, so he winked at Zeng Xiaolai, who responded with a sweet smile.

Actually, Shen Lingyou is quite envious of Zhang Ziyi, whose career is going smoothly.

She will soon receive another invitation from Zhang Yimou to star in the movie "My Father and Mother". With this film, she won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress at the age of 19, and became famous overnight. After that, she starred in blockbusters such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Rush Hour 2" and "Hero".

Among the eight golden hairpins of the 96 acting class of the Central Academy of Drama, she has the highest achievement.

At this time, the class bell rang and everyone dispersed.

After sitting down, Zeng Xiaolai took out two movie tickets from his textbook, handed one to Shen Lingyou, and said, "There are too many people watching this movie, and the golden show tickets are all sold out. The one I bought is for 6:15 pm. I have to go there after school, and I have to finish watching the movie before I can eat."

Shen Lingyou put the movie ticket away and said, "More than two hours, I have no problem, I am just worried about you."

Zeng Xiaolai pursed his lips and said, "I have no problem either."

Shen Lingyou smiled and said, "Let's buy some popcorn and Coke at the cinema to fill our stomachs first."

They stopped chatting when the teacher entered the classroom.

In the original time and space, Shen Lingyou bought the discs of Spielberg's "Jurassic Park" trilogy when he was a child, and watched it many times.

The first film was shot in 1993. At that time, lifelike dinosaurs were made. It took in over $4 million at the North American box office and nearly $11 billion worldwide, bringing monster films to new heights.

After thirty years, many domestic online movies still have special effects that are not as good as others.

In the second film, the park became Dinosaur Island, with more species of dinosaurs than in the first film, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex is still as domineering, which makes people thrilling and exciting to watch.

In the dimly lit theater, Shen Lingyou held Zeng Xiaolai's little hand and happily rewatched this "old movie".

After watching the movie, we found a restaurant to have dinner.

Shen Lingyou repeated this process three times over three consecutive days.

Watching the same movie three times in a short period of time almost made him vomit as if it were an old movie that he had watched many times.

Fortunately, there is beauty, and it is a different kind of beauty.

The last day was with Jiang Qinqin.

They watched the golden screening and bought the tickets at the cinema near Beijing Film Academy.

After watching the movie, I had a midnight snack.

"Let's grill it."

"Okay, it's up to you."

Arriving at the barbecue stall, Shen Lingyou raised the brim of his hat.

When he travels, he usually doesn't wear a disguise, for fear that no one will recognize him.

But for special trips, you must wear a baseball cap, and depending on the situation, you may also wear sunglasses and a mask, because you are afraid of being photographed by paparazzi.

Jiang Qinqin doesn't have this worry because she is not famous yet.

However, Huo Wenxi reminded her to be cautious when going out alone with Shen Lingyou.

Tonight, she also wore a baseball cap.

The two of them were dressed like ordinary college students and looked like a young couple. You wouldn't think they were celebrities.

While waiting for the skewers to be grilled, Shen Lingyou said, "Sister Xi and I talked about a play a few days ago, and I would like to ask for your opinion here."
