This man knows how to hype

Chapter 544 I Want to Teach Him a Good Man
inside the car.

Qiao Shuangshuang was confused by Xu Xiyu's change of topic.

How come the topic turned to writing a crosstalk for Ye Sitang's apprentice?

And... my boss can also write crosstalk works?
Xu Xiyu could naturally sense her doubts, so he repeated what he had just said: "In fact, what Guo Jinwei said is not wrong. The same bag can have different effects when used by different people."

Qiao Shuangshuang and Xu Xiyu did have a tacit understanding. They understood what he meant in an instant and said, "So, even if you can write, others may not be able to perform the effect, right?"

"This problem definitely exists, but it doesn't matter. I don't plan to develop in the direction of crosstalk. If I'm in the mood, I'll try to write something, so to speak..." Xu Xiyu was stunned when he said this.

"Is it to add some extra fun to life?" Qiao Shuangshuang added tentatively.

"Yes, add some extra fun." Hearing this, Xu Xiyu laughed and added in his mind that it was for himself to find some familiarity on Earth on the Blue Planet.

As he laughed, he seemed to have thought of something and asked Qiao Shuangshuang: "Hey, why don't you question me?"

"Question? Question what?" Qiao Shuangshuang was puzzled.

"You're questioning whether I'm pretending. Crosstalk is a skill that requires a certain level of skill. I'm acting like I can do it easily. Doesn't that make me look pretentious?"

"Oh, maybe I'm used to it."

"Get used to me knowing everything?"

"No, I'm used to the way you act."

"..."Xu Xiyu.

“Pfft~~Hehehe…” Qiao Shuangshuang laughed.

When she laughed, Xu Xiyu also laughed. For a moment, the car was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

To be honest, sometimes playing with friends is more fun than playing with your partner. It's a pity that Shan Xinbao and Yu Yuyu were not here. If they were here, maybe the car ride would have been more fun.

They were having fun like this for about forty minutes, and then the two of them, along with their two assistants and security guards, arrived at the parking lot of the theater.

Today this is the special performance of Guo Jinwei's apprentice "Yang Jihua".

When Yang Jihua became Guo Jinwei's apprentice, he was the fifth among the disciples, so he was nicknamed Yang Laowu. He was considered to be the most famous among Guo Jinwei's disciples.

Therefore, the performance was quite grand, with famous actors from the Jixiang Society such as Guo Jinwei coming to perform, and the venue was packed with audiences.

Logically speaking, with so many spectators around, Xu Xiyu should have covered up in order to avoid trouble.

But he came here today deliberately to "show his support" and wanted others to know that he was here, so he went to the entrance area without any cover.

His appearance, unsurprisingly, caused a commotion. In just three seconds, every single one of the audience members in the entrance area raised their phones.

The exclamations of “Fuck, Xu Dan” were heard continuously, accompanied by bursts of laughter.

Such commotion soon attracted the attention of the people from Jixiang Society.

After a while, behind the scenes, a man hurriedly ran to the lounge and said to Guo Jinwei who was chatting with someone, "Master, Xu Xiyu is here!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the originally lively lounge suddenly became quiet as if the pause button was pressed.

Guo Jinwei frowned and asked, "Where are you? Are you backstage?"

"No, he's in the auditorium. He should have bought a ticket to get in."

Hearing this, Guo Jinwei fell into thought. If Xu Xiyu had come to watch the performance at other times, the way to deal with it would be very simple. He would make a joke of Xu Xiyu on the stage to show his friendship, and then invite him to sit backstage after the performance.

But the situation is different now. Today I have to perform the crosstalk of the same name "Superpower Family".

The purpose of performing this crosstalk is, firstly, to promote the movie "Super Family"; secondly, to take away Xu Xiyu's credit for the film "Super Family".

In other words, he and Xu Xiyu were "at odds".

Judging from Xu Xiyu's past intelligence, he must have been able to sense this, so why did he come to watch the performance at this time? Could it be that he was here to warn me?

Guo Jinwei was thinking about this, when his fifth disciple Yang Jihua said, "Master, is he coming over to show his good will to us?"

Wow, these words almost made Guo Jinwei, who was originally thinking, laugh.

For a moment, he even felt that "this sentence is not as funnier than all the works written by my apprentice combined."

Xu Xiyu came to show his goodwill to me?

What on earth do you think?

Why does he need to come and show goodwill to people like us?
Seeing that Guo Jinwei didn't say anything, Yang Jihua realized that he had said something stupid and his expression became a little sullen.

To be honest, although Xu Xiyu is doing very well, in the arts industry, when people talk about him privately, 10 out of 8 people disparage him.

Especially those who have never dealt with Xu Xiyu, like to do this kind of thing the most.

The reason for criticizing him is very simple, just two words - jealousy.

Under the influence of jealousy, the most common thing these people did was to seize one or two "black spots" on Xu Xiyu and talk nonsense about him.

It seems that by devaluing Xu Xiyu to the point of being worthless, he can make himself look more powerful.

This kind of mentality is actually not uncommon. It happens all the time, both online and in real life.

This is the case with the second generation actors of Jixiangshe. In their eyes, Xu Xiyu is just a "lucky pretty boy" and nothing special.

How can you take Kekehai seriously?
It’s fine if people usually brag and talk nonsense in private, but now that the real person has appeared in the audience, are you still analyzing it with your own nonsense thinking, aren’t you stupid?

Yang Jihua is obviously not an idiot. Today he is holding a crosstalk show again and he is the host.

So, after realizing that he had said something stupid, he gritted his teeth and thought, "Master, do you think I should go and see him?"

Hearing this, Guo Jinwei felt that it was inappropriate. Although his apprentice was more than ten years older than Xu Xiyu, his status was indeed not high enough, so it would be better for him to meet him in person. However, if he went to the audience to meet Xu Xiyu, Zhang Jianbai of Huahai would definitely know about it, which was not good.

Moreover, if Xu Xiyu is polite when he meets him, can he still perform the crosstalk "Superpower Family" as originally planned?
Can I still take away his credit for "The Amazing Family"?
Thinking of this, Guo Jinwei shook his head and said, "No, let's prepare for the performance first. When the performance is over, we will invite him backstage."

Just as Yang Jihua was about to say something, he saw another young actor running in and saying, "Master, Master, Xu Xiyu and Qiao Shuangshuang are here!"

"Come backstage?!" Guo Jinwei was stunned when these words came out.

"No, in the audience." Obviously, the actor thought that people in the lounge didn't know about this and it was a duplicate notification.

But the content of his notification was different from the first person.

The first person only said "Xu Xiyu is here"; but what he said was "Xu Xiyu and Qiao Shuangshuang are here".

After realizing this difference, several surprised voices rang out in the lounge at the same time: "Qiao Shuangshuang is here too?!"

Among them, Yang Jihua's voice is the loudest.

His reaction was obviously much stronger than when he heard Xu Xiyu was coming, as if Qiao Shuangshuang was more of a big shot than Xu Xiyu.

And the fact is, it is really like this.

It is difficult for people to have any real concept about people or things they cannot contact. This is what the old saying means, "I am not afraid of the emperor, I am afraid of the yamen runners."

In this lounge, when Yang Jihua and other apprentices hang out in the circle, the "big boss" they refer to is not Xu Xiyu, but someone like Qiao Shuangshuang.

When she was at Huaqing, she was the head of the film and television investment department. In addition to her own projects, she also participated in investing in many other companies' projects. Now, she is the CEO of Xuejian Pictures.

Therefore, she usually deals with people in the circle much more frequently than Xu Xiyu, and the people she deals with are also much more down-to-earth. People in the circle have a much deeper impression of Qiao Shuangshuang than of Xu Xiyu.

After all, apart from the people in his own company, Xu Xiyu mostly only deals with the bosses of other top companies in the industry.

In fact, in this lounge, there were several people who had bent over and toasted Qiao Shuangshuang who was sitting at the main table when they were involved in certain film and television projects, including Yang Jihua.

Seeing Qiao Shuangshuang's style with my own eyes was much more shocking than hearing about Xu Xiyu from others.

As this memory emerged, Yang Jihua and others suddenly realized something that they had always overlooked, that is, the "big boss" in their eyes was actually Xu Xiyu's "little brother."

Thinking of this, Yang Jihua asked again: "Master, do you think I should go..."

"I said, wait until the performance is over, then invite him to sit backstage." Guo Jinwei frowned and scolded, his dissatisfaction overflowing the sky.

You bunch of useless things, it was you who previously boasted and encouraged myself to stand on the same side with Huahai, why are you the ones who are cowardly now?
Of course, being cowardly is not important. What is important is that Deyun Club on Earth has experienced the incident of apprentices defecting; Jixiang Club has not had a similar incident, but the absence of such an incident does not mean that the problem does not exist.

Some disciples blamed Guo Jinwei for their inability to make further progress, thinking that with this master above them, they would never be able to make a breakthrough and that the audience could only see him but not themselves.

In addition, Guo Jinwei adopted the "feudal patriarch" style of management. The entire Jixiang Society was either "godsons" or "godgrandsons", just like the Silijian of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, the morale of the people in Jixiang Society is unstable, and is becoming more and more unstable.

This made Guo Jinwei very worried and dissatisfied, and it was also because of this that he decided to seek development and breakthroughs through other channels.

Now, Yang Jihua's "arrogant at first and respectful later" attitude towards Xu Xiyu instantly aroused a very bad premonition in Guo Jinwei's heart.

He felt that today Yang Jihua might make a 180-degree turn in his attitude because he realized how powerful Xu Xiyu was; but tomorrow he might choose to betray him because of other things.

How can this work?

I have to calm the restless people in Jixiang Society.

Moreover, I have gone through many ups and downs for decades, so how could I be afraid of Xu Xiyu?
I didn’t achieve success in the film and television industry before because I didn’t work hard. Now that I’m serious, I don’t believe that I can be the best in the crosstalk industry, but will I fail again in the film and television industry?

For some inexplicable reason, really for some inexplicable reason, Guo Jinwei suddenly felt a surge of fighting spirit.

Perhaps it is the pride of an accomplished veteran artist; or perhaps it is because his fans have praised him a little too much over the years, making him feel that he is truly omnipotent.

He feels that "Super Family" will definitely be a signal that he will lead Jixiangshe to success in the film and television industry.

Thinking of this, Guo Jinwei first signaled Yang Jihua to close the door, and then said to his core disciples in the lounge in a serious tone: "The most taboo thing for people is to be two-faced and eat in one place and sleep in another.

Xu Xiyu's development momentum was bright, but why was he suddenly kicked out of Huaqing? He risked being shot a few days ago and was able to reverse some of the decline?
He just didn't respect his seniors and didn't know how to be grateful. Internally, he offended the financial sponsor who had supported him all the way; externally, he was not liked by the senior seniors in the entertainment industry.

As one of the senior members, I naturally have to stand together with Mr. Zhang Jianbai and others to maintain the atmosphere in our circle and let everyone know to respect the elderly and love the young, to respect teachers and to be grateful.

Haven't you always wanted to know what I talked about with Mr. Zhang? Today I will tell you that Mr. Zhang has agreed to cooperate deeply with us on all future comedy film and television projects of Huahai.

This means that each of you has the opportunity to become the male lead in a movie, but opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Don’t be blinded by thinking about this today and that tomorrow, or you will end up with nothing.”

As soon as these words came out, the disciples looked at each other, and finally responded in unison.

At the same time, news and videos about [Xu Xiyu watching the Jixiangshe crosstalk live] have appeared one after another on the Internet.

Naturally, this news was quickly noticed by the assistants of Zhang Jianbai and others, and they were informed immediately.

"Superpower Family" is currently Huahai's top priority project, and all shareholders are keeping a close eye on it. They saw Xu Xiyu running off to Jixiangshe, and for a moment, they all speculated what Xu Xiyu was trying to do.

Especially Zhang Jianbai, Qi Xiangyang and Mao Gaojun, who were scattered in various places, became nervous instantly. They always felt that Xu Xiyu was plotting something.

But in fact, Xu Xiyu, who was suspected by them to be plotting something, was chatting with Qiao Shuangshuang about a topic that had nothing to do with "Superpower Family", or even something that had nothing to do with work.

They were guessing in a low voice, tactfully, and using pronouns, about the gender of the baby in Ke Xinying and Yang Xueqing's belly.

Obviously, they didn't take this trip that seriously.

On the contrary, the Huahai faction, which has been suffering, and the Jixiang Society, which has ulterior motives, seem to be in a state of panic.

And in this panic, the performance finally began.

On the other hand, another performance is also starting, which is the confidential preview of "Coco", targeting major film producers in Europe, America, Asia and other regions.
