The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 426: The truth is revealed, I hope you can hold on for a while

"Xixi, why don't you go out and go shopping with Shu Chang and Shao Han?"

"Humph!"

"Xixi, why don't you go watch the recently released "Crazy Stone", the box office has exceeded 5000 million, your brother's discerning movie, you should go and appreciate it, right?"

"Humph!"

"Xixi, if it really doesn't work, go practice your own songs and I'll write some more for you. Let's let Lin Yuna and Cui Xiuying practice with you first, and then I'll find the fourth member of the band for you, and we can debut as a group right away, okay?"

"Humph!"

Zhang Chen circled around Liu Yifei several times, but couldn't see the girl's face.

Every time he turned to Liu Yifei's side, the little girl would turn to the other side, just because she didn't want Zhang Chen to see her face.

Zhang Chen also went around to the left and then to the right again and again, trying to get in front of the little girl to talk.

Unfortunately, every time he proposed something, Liu Yifei rejected it with just one word.

Even though he couldn't see her face, Zhang Chen could guess that Liu Yifei's expression at the moment must be pouting and looking aggrieved.

This phenomenon has been going on for three days.

During these three days, he even slept in the guest room.

This caused Zhang Chen, who was used to waking up with a steamed bun in his hand every day, to have a sharp drop in sleep quality during these three days.'

After careful consideration, Zhang Chen felt that he could not go on like this, otherwise he would not be able to cope with the high-intensity work in the future.

After I had this realization, the scene just now happened.

"Leon, could you please not interrupt our connection?"

Zhang Chen was still circling around Liu Yifei. Avril, who was sitting in front of the drum set, couldn't stand it anymore, so she took her drumsticks and gave everyone in the music room a "shocking blow".

"Clang--" The sound of drumsticks hitting the cymbals echoed throughout the room through the deliberately turned up volume of the speakers.

Zhang Chen covered his chest and looked at Avril with lingering fear: "Next time, you can talk to me in a gentler way."

"Don't worry about what method I use!" Avril pointed her drumsticks at Zhang Chen. In the past two years, her way of speaking has become more and more like a Chinese. "I want to ask you if you can stop disturbing our practice?"

"I didn't disturb your practice." Zhang Chen pointed at Liu Yifei and said, "This girl can't keep up with the progress. I have to let her return to her original life."

"Haven't you noticed that Liu's progress in the past three days has been much faster than before?"

"She is the most popular female star in our country. It's a waste of her talent for her to be in my band. I personally don't want her to be too tired." Zhang Chen said while glancing at Liu Yifei's back.

But Liu Yifei completely ignored what Zhang Chen said, and instead played the bass faster.

For a moment, the dull bass melody produced by the bass echoed in the room, striking Zhang Chen's heart once again.

Just from the dull bass sound, one can feel how bad the little girl's mood is at the moment.

"You said Liu is a big star?" Avril looked at Zhang Chen with some dissatisfaction, "What about Taylor and I? We are both well-known figures in the world music scene. Why don't you say that it's a waste of our talents to form a band for you?"

"You are employees, do you have any questions?" Zhang Chen looked at Avril expressionlessly.

Avril rolled her eyes at Zhang Chen's slightly shameless words, and then said with a fake smile: "Okay, so we are just employees, right? Good, good, good!"

After saying that, he turned away with dissatisfaction, saying that the drum set could not be held in the hands like the bass.

Otherwise, Avril would have to learn from Liu Yifei and perform for Zhang Chen with her back to the audience.

Seeing that Avril ignored him, Zhang Chen turned his gaze to Taylor Swift who was still standing nearby.

"Hey, I'm going to the bathroom." Taylor Swift put down her guitar and trotted out the door.

Zhang Chen turned his gaze to the two girls, Yoona Lim and Choi Sooyoung.

After some time of interaction, the two girls from South Korea have sorted out the relationships between the people present.

Zhang Chen, the chairman of the Chenguang Group, is also the highest decision-maker in Chenguang Entertainment, to which they belong. To put it bluntly, their life and death are in the hands of Zhang Chen.

Avril Lavigne, the queen of Maple Leaf Country, has become the queen of Asia surpassing Sakura Hamasaki under the operation of Morning Light Entertainment in recent years. Although her record sales in Sakura Country are inferior to Ayumi Hamasaki, in terms of the entire Asian region, Avril Lavigne's album sales are second only to their boss Zhang Chen.

If it were in China, Avril's songs would be as popular as Zhang Chen's.

Maybe this is one of the reasons why Avril dared to speak to Zhang Chen like that?

Another source of confidence may be the boss's fangirls? Pursuers?
Lin Yoona and the other girl were not very clear about Zhang Chen's thoughts on Avril, but all signs indicated that although their boss Zhang Chen had never done anything intimate with Avril, he did not care about some of Avril's offensive behaviors.

This relationship should not be an employee relationship, nor a romantic relationship, but more like a friendship?
Lin Yuna thinks it should be.

Choi Sooyoung felt that something might happen between their boss and Avril in the future. After all, such a beautiful and infatuated queen of the music industry was much rarer than those slutty bitches outside their company.

By the way, Choi Soo-young has never seen any female artists in her company being harassed by male executives within the company. This is completely different from her impression of the entertainment industry.

I heard that this was a rule set by the boss’ mother, but I don’t know if it’s true or not.

But she really likes the atmosphere of Morning Glory Entertainment because she doesn't have to please the company's top executives like her predecessors in SM Entertainment, and may be forced to receive people from the chaebols from time to time.

Thinking of the disgusting things she had heard and then thinking of her own clean boss, Choi Sooyoung secretly glanced at her boss and happened to meet Zhang Chen's eyes.

"That." Choi Sooyoung shuddered in fear, "I want to go to the bathroom too."

As he said that, he pulled Lin Yoona, who was still struggling, and ran out the door.

The reason I ran was because of Liu Yifei.

No matter how powerful her boss is, doesn't he still have to coax the angry Liu Yifei?
Although their fate is in the hands of their boss, she thinks it is better not to get involved in this kind of conflict which is not a loyalty issue but simply a conflict between lovers.

When a couple quarrels, if one party clearly stands on one side, it is equivalent to completely drawing a line between themselves and the other party.

Except for the boy’s brothers or the girl’s best friend, it is best to wait and see with other people.

Especially employees like them.

The boss and his wife were arguing, and the girls sided with the boss.
God knows if the boss will deal with them based on the boss's wife's advice after they make peace with each other.

Although they are still young, people like Yoona Lin went abroad to study in China alone when she was in her early teens. She has taken countless courses related to interpersonal relationships over the years and has a clear understanding of the current situation.

Well, mainly I just want to live a few more years.

It's not easy for a stranger wandering abroad.

Choi Sooyoung, who was wondering when she could go home to see her parents, opened the door of the music room, ran out without looking back, and quickly closed the door after Lin Yoona came out.

In the music room, you can see Yoona's skirt stuck in the crack of the door.

But almost in an instant, that corner of the skirt disappeared into the crack of the door.

"Akane"

"Dingle bell bell."

The ringing of a cell phone interrupted Zhang Chen's thoughts of continuing to persuade Liu Yifei. He looked at his cell phone, then at Liu Yifei, who still had her back to him.

After much hesitation, I decided to get up and answer the phone.

"Hey?"

"Boss, there's movement!"

When Zhang Chen heard this, his hand, which had just touched the door handle, paused.

Then he quickly opened the door.

"Ouch!"

Zhang Chen looked at the three girls who fell in speechlessly.

However, at this time he did not have time to pay attention to these guys who were eavesdropping. He just pointed at a few people with a stern face, then walked out without saying a word, stepping over the three people.

"What's the matter, boss?"

On the other end of the phone, Xue Yining's somewhat puzzled voice came.

"It's okay, just continue talking." Zhang Chen looked back at the three women who were pretending to count the dust with their heads down, and shook his head helplessly.

What a bunch of funny people.

I'll let Xue Yining send an email to Yin Zilan later. These people will lose their bonuses this year.

Thinking of punishing Taylor Swift and the other two, Zhang Chen walked quickly towards the study room with his phone in hand.

"My boss told me to pay attention to the trend on Youku a few days ago, and you really got it right!"

On the other end of the phone, Xue Yining's tone was filled with admiration and fear.

"Oh?" Zhang Chen opened the study and walked in, not forgetting to ask, "What did they do?"

"That classmate of yours took a video."

"How long has it been since it was posted?" Zhang Chen said, opening his computer to look for the video.

"Just five minutes ago."

"What about the content?"

"This..." Xue Yining was a little embarrassed, "That video doesn't seem to specifically mention you and Yifei."

Zhang Chen paused while holding the mouse: "Let me take a look first."

Turn on the computer, open the Firefox browser, and search Youku in one go.

The first thing he saw when he opened the website was a pinned video:
[Unveiling the legend of the 06 class of Beijing Film Academy. Why did this class of Beijing Film Academy's acting class become the most famous one so far? ]

Zhang Chen squinted his eyes and looked at the title.

This gimmick is okay, and it has a lot of the style of the clickbait headlines of later generations.

With a slight curiosity, Zhang Chen pressed the play button.

"Hello everyone~" A baby-faced girl appeared in the video. It was Jiang Yiyan, whom Zhang Chen had only met a few times but dared to ask for concert tickets in front of him.

Zhang Chen leaned back. He didn't want to get too close to this person even through the screen.

"I believe everyone knows that this year is the graduation year for the 06 class of Beijing Film Academy. Over the past few years, my classmates have brought many popular roles to everyone. Today, I will reveal the stories behind the role players that everyone likes."

"Yi Yan, many viewers have discovered that many TV drama characters are played by students from your class in recent years. I believe you have also played many roles in these four years. Can you tell us about them?"

A voice was heard outside the camera, probably from the host arranged for this interview.

Jiang Yiyan's face froze for a moment after she heard the host's question.

But she quickly adjusted herself and said with a smile: "I usually hone my acting skills in school and have not taken any acting jobs outside."

"Oh?" The host's voice was obviously surprised. "So what you mean is that your classmates are going out to take on acting jobs without honing their acting skills?"

When Zhang Chen heard this, he was certain that this was an interview targeting the 06 acting class of Beijing Film Academy, and it was malicious.

The host's way of changing the subject was too abrupt.

Zhang Chen had nearly twenty years of hosting experience in his previous life.

If it were a normal interview, the host should have continued the topic of Jiang Yiyan not having any acting jobs outside, because Jiang Yiyan was the only one who could answer the questions in front of her.

But the host, whose face could not be seen off camera, shifted the topic directly to people who were not present at the event.

It was obvious that he wanted to bring up this topic by deliberately asking Jiang Yiyan why she didn't go out to take acting jobs like other classmates.

The purpose is so obvious that there is no need for any foreshadowing.

Zhang Chen curled his lips, labeled the host "unprofessional", and continued watching.

"Well," Jiang Yiyan looked embarrassed, "The teacher advised them to attend classes more often, but they always get some good roles. I also understand that they made this decision in order to become famous as soon as possible."

"So what do you think of your classmates' acting skills?" the host asked.

"I don't know about that. I'm also surprised that they keep getting various roles. But looking at their performance in the drama, it seems that practice is also a way to improve acting skills."

"They keep getting roles?" the host asked, "Do they still have time to complete the homework assigned by the school?"

"You don't have to worry about that. Even some students who are often away filming or busy with other things can still get very excellent results at the end of the semester."

"You mean that even if some students don't go to school and don't complete their homework, the school will give these students high grades?"

"No, no!" Jiang Yiyan smiled and shook her head, "I didn't say they didn't finish their homework. After all, I'm not a teacher. I don't know if they handed in their homework, but their grades are indeed very good."

"But other assignments are easy to deal with, but what about the graduation thesis from a while ago?" The host followed up on Jian Yijian's topic and asked, "According to what you said, your classmates are usually so busy. Do they have the time to independently complete a graduation thesis that requires a lot of time and energy?"

"You are underestimating them, aren't you?" Jiang Yiyan's face showed dissatisfaction. "They are loved by countless audiences. My classmates all have huge fan bases. How could they ignore something as important as a graduation thesis?"

“But you don’t have to write the paper yourself, right?”

"I don't know that."

Zhang Chen chuckled barely perceptibly when he heard this.

Poor acting.

But the real purpose has finally been revealed.

"I just happen to be in a bad mood recently, so I'll play with you guys. I hope you can hold on a little longer."

　Should we let Xixi go to the concert?

　　I'm also quite confused.
