The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 1: Things start to get different (please read on!)

On September 1994, 9, it was the annual start of the school year. At the gate of Jiangcheng Panyang Street Primary School, parents coming and going watched their children walk into the campus.

Zhang Chen is also one of them. Well, he was the one who was sent to the campus. This is the fourth time this year.

He felt a little emotional. His rebirth was not discounted at all. Everything started from the starting point of life - birth.

In his previous life, he was a well-known host. He usually made a good living by taking jobs as a wedding emcee and commercial performance host, relying on his good voice and a few connections.

However, due to stress and staying up late, he liked to smoke to refresh himself at a young age. He was diagnosed with throat cancer at the age of 39. When the last ray of sunlight in 2024 shone on his body lying on the hospital bed, he closed his eyes forever.

When he opened his eyes again, Zhang Chen had returned to the Teachers' Day in 1984. His two parents, both teachers, also welcomed the most precious Teachers' Day gift in their lives - his birth.

"Mom and Dad, I'm in?" Zhang Chen planned to say goodbye to his parents as usual and continue his youthful life. After all, no matter how big his ambitions were, they would be impossible to achieve with the limitations of his young body.

Just as Zhang Chen was about to leave, his father Zhang Zhiguo grabbed him and said, "Chenchen, wait a minute. Dad will take you to meet someone."

After saying that, he took Zhang Chen's hand and walked towards a family of three who were walking towards the school gate not far away.

"Shao Kang, Xiao Li, you are finally here." Zhang Zhiguo brought his wife and son to the family of three.

When Zhang Chen heard his father's address and saw the two adults and one child in front of him, he remembered that a similar incident had happened in his previous life. However, he was young at the time and did not have a particularly deep memory of it.

His father Zhang Zhiguo is a professor of English at Jiangcheng University and a colleague of An Shaokang from the French Department.

"Zhiguo, Fangping, sorry to have kept you waiting. This is Chenchen, right?" After greeting Zhang Chen's parents, An Shaokang lowered his head to look at Zhang Chen who was still immersed in his memories.

"Yes, I just remembered that your Xiaofeng is also attending elementary school here this year, so I waited for your family of three here and let the two children get to know each other." Zhang Zhiguo said to An's father with a smile.

Then, Zhang Zhiguo squatted down, put his arms around Zhang Chen's body, pointed at the little girl hiding behind An Shaokang's wife, Liu Xiaoli, and said, "Chenchen, that's An Feng's sister."

Zhang Chen looked at the little girl in front of him, who was now called An Feng, and his thoughts inevitably returned to his previous life.

At that time, Zhang Chen didn't take today's meeting seriously. After all, little boys hate playing with little girls the most, and crying is very annoying.

At the beginning, he could occasionally see the girl at Zhang's father's workplace, but as the relationship between An's father and his wife broke down, Liu Xiaoli took An Feng to the United States, and Zhang Chen completely cut off contact with them.

It was not until the little girl transformed into the well-known Fairy Sister Liu Yifei and her life story was revealed that Zhang Chen realized that this Fairy Sister had met him several times when he was a child.

But by that time, An's father had been transferred to France, and for many years afterwards, Zhang Chen never had the chance to get to know Liu Yifei again.

It was not until a press conference, when he served as the host and Liu Yifei served as the guest, that the two were brought together again.

It was also after that press conference that Liu Yifei would introduce some resources to Zhang Chen from time to time, and he benefited a lot from it, but their relationship was limited to this.

She helped him in the previous life, so in this life, it should be his turn to help this guy who has been beating him for ten years in a row.

"Hello, Sister Anfeng, my name is Zhang Chen." Zhang Chen walked up to Anfeng, stretched out his hand and said.

To help someone, there must be a relationship, so let's start with knowing each other. Zhang Chen first gave himself the identity of a brother. Looking at Zhang Chen's outstretched hand, An Feng grabbed Liu Xiaoli's leg with more force, and his body couldn't help but shrink back, hiding his red little face behind his mother, which was very cute.

"Haha, Chenchen, our Xiaofeng is a little shy. She will go to elementary school this year. You have to protect your sister in school for your uncle." An Shaokang looked at his daughter's shy appearance, squatted down, and took his daughter's hand and put it into Zhang Chen's outstretched hand.

From this moment on, everything was completely different from the previous life.

In fact, he had been planning his life since the day he was reborn.

If you want to break into the entertainment industry, then you can’t do without: talent, good looks, gifts, resources, connections, etc.

First of all, it’s talent. In this life, he has the thinking of an adult, so he started learning various skills since he was a child.

Of course, the most important thing is to learn vocal knowledge from his mother in this life. In Zhang Chen's plan, music will be the brick that opens the door to the entertainment industry.

Then there is her appearance. In her previous life, she was able to step onto the stage and be a host, so her appearance is still pretty good.

Talent, thanks to the genes from his parents, Zhang Chen has a strong talent in music and learning ability. In this life, he can also regard the memories of his previous life as creative talent.

Resources, the most basic is to make money, only by making money can we firmly grasp the fleeting opportunities. For example, the copyright of "Harry Potter" was sold to Warner for $100 million shortly after its publication. This is a well-known high-return investment in the early film and television industry. We also need to control the media mouthpiece and resist the Internet tide. There are too many places to spend money.

What's more, Zhang Chen also plans to build an entertainment business empire with a full industrial chain.

If you do it, do it the best you can.

Another thing is connections. If you want to get along well in a certain circle, you need close friends. The easiest way to build a circle of connections is undoubtedly to have people who are from the same school.

In his previous life, Zhang Chen did not apply for an art school, which made it very difficult for him to enter the entertainment industry. It was not until many years later that he realized that it would be difficult for him to achieve anything without the care of his predecessors.

Therefore, Zhang Chen’s goal in this life is to enroll in an art school.

Learning knowledge is one purpose, and building connections is another.

Now he wished that time would pass faster so that he could soar to the sky.

The past ten years were spent in waiting. After all, his young body could not support his huge ambitions.

But after meeting Liu Yifei as a child today, Zhang Chen felt that he needed to add one more item to his future plans.

"Xiaofeng, call me Brother Chenchen and I'll buy you some candy, okay?"

After the parents left, Zhang Chen began to take the initiative to talk to her. He must not let her get away in this life.
