The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 162 Taboo Words for the Liu Family During the Chinese New Year: Dumpling Smash

"The winner is Cheng Long!"

Before everyone could stop congratulating, the host said, ". and Zhang Chen! Congratulations to you two!"

Double yolk eggs? No one expected this.

But if we put aside the fact that the double yolk egg was a bit surprising, the two winners seem to really meet the criteria for this award.

First of all, it was Jackie Chan who single-handedly brought Asian Kung Fu elements back to Hollywood, allowing movie fans all over the world to see the style of Asians.

At the same time, Cheng Long also shows signs of inheriting Bruce Lee's "mantle" and making Chinese Kung Fu shine in Hollywood, which is also something that all people in Asia like to see.

Next is Zhang Chen. Although he did not release a new album last year, the MV for his promotional song "Wavin' Flag" sparked the sports dreams of many young people around the world, which is in line with the word "inspiration" in the award.

"Which of you two will speak to everyone first?"

"Brother Cheng Long, go first."

"Then I'll assume that Zhang Chen is understanding of an old guy like me. Let me say a few words first. I've been in Hollywood for a few years and have seen a lot. In fact, I have some feelings in my heart. I'm sure Zhang Chen and I have some of the same views."

Zhang Chen saw Cheng Long looking at him, and he nodded in agreement. Because there were international friends present, some things could not be said explicitly, but they could all understand.

“So, what I want to tell you here is that only if we dare to fight and work hard, one day, we Asians will be able to stand on this international stage and proudly show ourselves to people all over the world.”

After Cheng Long finished speaking, he thanked the people in the audience and stepped aside, leaving the speaking position to Zhang Chen.

"I'm still young, and there don't seem to be many people younger than me at the scene, but I debuted earlier, and it seems that many people older than me have started to call me senior?"

Zhang Chen's opening remarks made some singers in the audience burst into laughter, while other singers like Xiao Zhou smiled awkwardly. However, they did not feel ashamed. If it were a singer younger than them, even if he debuted earlier than them, he would not gain their respect. However, Zhang Chen was an exception.

"But regardless of age, just like what Brother Cheng Long said, we are just one step faster and have seen and experienced more than you, so do you really not consider playing a cameo role in my TV series?"

Zhang Chen seemed to be speaking very seriously at the beginning, but when he said the last sentence, he almost sprained everyone's back.

In fact, it’s not that Zhang Chen doesn’t want to talk nicely, but the occasion is not right.

MTV itself is a Western award. If you hold an award given by someone else at an award ceremony held by the other party and say something like Asia is the coolest, you will be regarded as a joke by Westerners.

It would not be too late to say this when you actually fight for it at the Grammys, Oscars, or other global awards or competitions such as the European Big Three.

The moment he held back his words, Zhang Chen had the urge to quickly start his "communication" with world singers.

He plans to gradually get this thing done and strive to achieve a preliminary scale within the next year or in the next two years.

"Chinese singers won big at the first MTV Asia Awards."

"Zhang Chen invites all Asian stars to guest star in Chenguang Entertainment's TV series."

“Even though he hasn’t released an album, Zhang Chen’s influence is still unmatched.”

"The remarks made by two international superstars, Zhang Chen and Cheng Long, on MTV were meaningful."

Tianya Forum
As Chinese language integrates with the international community, the number of Internet users is also increasing along with the opening of the market.

Now this is an excellent place for most netizens to discuss and chat.

[What are Zhang Chen and Cheng Long talking about? ]

This post was quickly pushed to the most prominent place by the onlookers.

This time they did not argue.

Instead, everyone agreed that the two's acceptance speeches were about the unfair treatment Asians receive in the entertainment industry and the entire Western world.

While they were angry, they also felt helpless.

Compared with those developed countries in the West, China today is indeed inferior to them in many aspects, and you have no suitable reasons to refute it.

In the end, they can only hope that people like Zhang Chen and Cheng Long will win more honors for them on the international stage.

"Cheng Long is the best!"

"Zhang Chen is the coolest!"

In the end, it turned into a debate about who was more influential in the West, Zhang Chen or Cheng Long.

At 2 p.m. on February 11, the long-awaited Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Horse will begin.

This year's Spring Festival Gala followed the model of previous years, but made new breakthroughs in terms of the openness of the structure, audience interaction and participation, and the use of high-tech television technology.

In addition to CCTV Studio No. 1, a branch venue was also opened in Shenzhen Window of the World, and three "unilateral injection points" were opened in Shanghai, Shenyang, Xi'an and other cities.

At the same time, the director of this year's Spring Festival Gala also stated in an interview that this year's Spring Festival Gala will say goodbye to the "expressive and emotional" lip-syncing.

In previous Spring Festival Galas, except for some professional singers like Zhang Chen, other inexperienced singers and actors often lip synced on the Spring Festival Gala.

The most eye-catching people in this Spring Festival Gala, in addition to some anticipated old faces, is Li Yang, who created "Crazy English" because of China's accession to the WTO and successful bid for the Olympic Games. He has also become a popular figure and will bring his English performance to audiences across the country in this Spring Festival Gala.

At this time, backstage at the Spring Festival Gala, in Zhang Chen’s exclusive lounge.

"Didn't we rehearse today's process completely the day before yesterday? Why are you still so nervous?"

Zhang Chen looked at the three people in front of him who were extremely nervous, and wanted to say something to comfort them, but when he thought about how he felt when he first stepped onto the stage, he tactfully kept his mouth shut. "This time, there are more than 20 billion people watching, and it's being broadcast live simultaneously in more than 160 countries around the world. How can we not be nervous?"

As Zhang Chen's number one nagging person, Liu Yifei started criticizing Zhang Chen as soon as she opened her mouth.

But it would have been better if she didn't say it. After she said it, she became even more nervous, especially when she mentioned those numbers. They weighed on her mind one by one, making her almost breathless.

"Why think about that? There are only about a hundred people at the scene. There's no need to think that far ahead."

"Brother, can you teach us how to relieve our nervousness? You have so much experience in live performances, so you must have a way, right?"

"It's simple. Take a deep breath and let your heart get enough oxygen. Your heartbeat will slow down, and your nervous mood will also ease a lot."

"Boss, I need to go to the bathroom"

Fan Bingbing imitated Zhang Chen and did a few sets of movements, and then he successfully suppressed his urge to go to the bathroom.

".You don't need to report to go to the toilet."

"I also need to go!"

"I'll go as well"

Zhang Chen looked at the empty dressing room and the ceiling in silence. He didn't know if he could take these three rookies with him when he went on stage to perform.

Their program was scheduled before the stroke of midnight, which was also a special treatment given to Zhang Chen by the Spring Festival Gala.

In every Spring Festival Gala, besides the language programs, audiences across the country most look forward to Zhang Chen’s first performance of his new songs, which always brings different feelings to people every time.

Consider that Chinese people all over the world and even foreign friends will watch this year's Spring Festival Gala.

Zhang Chen naturally became the person who rang the clock at midnight.

It was because he brought these three burdens with him that made the Spring Festival Gala director team a little uneasy.

However, under Zhang Chen's insistence, the director team had no choice but to accept it.

As for why Zhang Chen did this, it was naturally to increase the national popularity of his own artist.

If you have never been on the Spring Festival Gala, you would be embarrassed to say that you are a famous artist in China.

Since the establishment of Chenguang Entertainment, no other artist except Zhang Chen has appeared on the stage.

Therefore, Zhang Chen and Li Xiaoping agreed that it was time to try a format where the old artists would bring up the new artists, allowing more artists from Chenguang Entertainment to appear in front of audiences across the country and even the world.

Jiangcheng, the former Mr. Liu who owned a small shop, is now Mr. Liu, the owner of three chain supermarkets.

"Xiao Feng, wait for Zhang Chen to come out and call me. I'm going to go play cards with your mom and the others first."

"I saw Yifei's name on the program this time?"

"Yifei?"

"That little follower who used to follow Zhang Chen. His name seemed to be An Feng at that time?"

"Then you have to think about it. It's rare for us Jiangcheng people to do well. I'll just wait for them to come out."

In this way, the father and son sat in front of the TV and watched the programs go by one by one.

"Don't tell me, this skit is still worth watching from the Skit King. This brain teaser is really interesting."

After selling crutches last year, Xiaopin Wang upgraded his tools this year and started selling cars.

It also once again created a popular Spring Festival Gala meme: "Because your feet are off the ground, your intelligence has taken over the high ground again."

The most important thing is that the "dumpling" gag rarely appears in the sketches of the Sketch King, which makes Lao Liu, who was born in Jiangcheng, feel very comfortable watching them.

The words he hates to hear most on the Spring Festival Gala are "making dumplings is a chore" and "eating dumplings is a chore".

It seems like everyone in the country eats dumplings during the Chinese New Year.

In Lao Liu's opinion, which family would be so poor as to only eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year?

"Come, have some steamed pork with rice flour, and let those people on TV eat dumplings and throw them at me."

If conditions allowed, he would have wanted to move the large table of food in front of him to the Spring Festival Gala in the capital.

"Dad, they don't just have dumplings for Chinese New Year, right?"

Although Xiao Feng himself felt embarrassed when hearing this line, he knew as he was well-educated that eating dumplings during the New Year in the north was due to weather factors as well as some other traditional factors.

But now people in the north still eat a lot of meat and fish during the New Year, it’s just that dumplings have a special status.

"Don't worry about what they eat, but I hear this line every year and it makes me sick!"

Old Liu angrily hit his son on the head with chopsticks.

Xiao Feng also shrank his neck and didn't dare to talk back. He felt that his father had some symptoms of PTSD and had a particularly strong reaction when he heard the word "dumplings".

"Here we go, the next show is Zhang Chen and his team's."

　Different places have different customs, everyone should respect them
