The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 17: Getting Ready to Go (New Book Signing, Please Support~)

August 8th, a sunny afternoon.

After Zhang Chen entrusted Xiaohua to other employees in the company to help take care of her for a while, he brought the group of people who went to the United States last time, plus Liu Qianqian, to his hometown in Jiangcheng.

There was no need to ask her father to pick her up at the airport when she returned to her hometown. Before leaving, Sun Fangping had already told her husband approximately when he would be home, and Comrade Lao Zhang also invited An's father to the house.

Everyone quietly took the things they had prepared and headed towards Zhang Chen's home.

Along the way, Liu Qianqian seemed very nervous and expectant.

It was still the same old apartment, and Sun Fangping took the lead in opening the door.

"Dad, come and help me move the luggage."

There was a lot of luggage, after all, after a short stay here, they had to rush to the United States. The heaviest suitcases were undoubtedly the autographed albums requested by Comrade Lao Zhang, which contained 300 copies. If there were not so many people returning this time, it might not have been possible to transport them back.

"Is Xiaofeng back?" It was An's father who spoke. He also followed Zhang Zhiguo out.

"dad."

On the way, Zhang Chen wondered how Liu Xixi would react when she saw An's father.

I thought of countless possibilities, but I never expected that Liu Xixi would cry when she saw An's father.

After An's father appeared, Liu Qianqian walked out timidly from behind Zhang Chen with red eyes.

"Xiaofeng." Seeing his daughter's aggrieved look, An Shaokang's heart also tightened, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say.

"Shao Kang, let Xiao Feng and the others in first." Zhang Zhiguo came to the rescue of An Shao Kang.

While everyone was busy moving their luggage, An Shaokang and Liu Qianqian stayed in the living room as guests.

The father and daughter were sitting on the sofa facing each other, silent for a long time.

"Uncle, I wrote a song for Xixi and plan to put it on the album when I release it next year." In the end, it was Zhang Chen's arrival that broke the silent atmosphere in the living room.

"Oh? What song is it?" An Shaokang was very curious and asked his daughter.

It seemed that Father An wanted to hear his daughter's answer. Seeing this, Zhang Chen answered the question for Liu Qianqian.

But Liu Qianqian remained silent, lowering her head and tugging at the corner of her clothes.

This was not a solution, so Zhang Chen could only turn into a rescuer again and said to Liu Xixi: "Xixi, did you forget so quickly? I was planning to record this song with you for everyone to listen to."

After saying this, he pretended to look regretful.

"No! I can sing! I want to sing with Brother Chenchen!" The little girl became anxious after hearing what Zhang Chen said. When she heard that she had the opportunity to sing the same song with Zhang Chen and record it, she didn't care about the previous embarrassment.

"Then can you sing it to me again?"

"Let's learn to meow together, and meow together." After singing only one line, the sound became almost inaudible.

It’s not that Liu Xixi forgot how to sing, but she suddenly remembered that there were a lot of people around her and felt a little embarrassed.

"Why are you shy again? Don't you want to be a star? You can't be so timid." Zhang Chen said, and put his hand on Liu Xixi's head, rubbed it twice, and encouraged her. "Xixi, do you want to sing?" Sun Fangping, who had packed her luggage not far away, also came over. Even Yin Zilan, Xue Yining, and the driver and bodyguard Wang Ge, who were planning to leave and find a hotel, stayed.

Looking at the people around her, Liu Qianqian became even more nervous. Although she had performed on stage when she was a child, she felt a little uncomfortable in front of such a group of familiar people.

"Brother Chenchen, can you sing with me?" Liu Qianqian pitifully pulled the corner of Zhang Chen's clothes and asked softly.

Zhang Chen glanced at the people around him and found that the adults seemed to be in even higher spirits. They looked like they were about to applaud and encourage him.

What else could Zhang Chen do? He had to jump into the hole he had dug himself, crying.

All I can say is that age is a good protective color. He and Liu Qianqian are 10 and 13 years old respectively. There is no need to feel particularly ashamed for two half-grown children to sing this song.

In the end, the two of them finished singing the whole song in front of the crowd.

"Chenchen, are you planning to sing this song with Xixi and record it in the album?" After listening to the song, Sun Fangping asked her son a key question.

"I" Zhang Chen wanted to deny it, but seeing the pair of hopeful eyes beside him, he couldn't bear to refuse. Maybe with me, the debut of Fairy Sister Liu Yifei would be smoother? If I remember correctly, this song seemed to be originally a duet between a man and a woman.

After quickly weighing the pros and cons, Zhang Chen changed his words and said, "Well, this song would be better if it were changed into a duet."

"Then let's start recording after we get back from the United States." Sun Fangping originally wanted to bring Liu Xixi to the United States as well. After all, this song would be included in Zhang Chen's album, and it would be a duet with her son, so Liu Xixi's singing skills would have to be improved. But when she thought about the reunion of Liu Xixi and her son, she stopped thinking about it.

"Xixi, keep doing your best. Dad will support you." An Shaokang, who had never known how to start, finally found an opportunity to speak.

"By the way, Uncle An, I have something to tell you." While speaking, Zhang Chen looked at his mother.

Then, facing An Shaokang's inquiring gaze, he said, "It's like this. We invited Aunt Liu back and arranged a crew for her to film."

"Really?" An Shaokang lowered his head and remained silent for a long time, then raised his head and said, "Well, I got to know her because of her appearance on the stage. It has been difficult for her to accommodate me over the years."

"Shao Kang, in my opinion, since Xiaoli has returned to China, you should do the same as me and transfer your job to the capital." Zhang Zhiguo suggested.

"Let's see about this later."

Zhang Chen might know the reason. In his previous life, An Shaokang was one of the first batch of diplomats trained by the country. It might not be so easy to transfer jobs. He couldn't be like Comrade Lao Zhang, who could leave whenever he wanted.

"By the way, while I'm in the United States, I also want to go to the UK to do something. Mom, can you help arrange it?" Zhang Chen suddenly remembered something and said to Sun Fangping.

"Are you anxious?"

"I'm not in a hurry."

"Then I'll ask Warner to try to add a trip to the UK in the promotional notice. In addition to the North American market, it would be best to visit the English-speaking countries in Europe if possible." No matter what Zhang Chen is going to do in the UK, even if he has nothing to do, he will arrange to go there for promotion later.

Because the UK has a "Crystal Music Award", although its influence is not as wide as the Grammys, it is friendly to newcomers and is regarded by newcomers as a stepping stone to enter the music industry.
