The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 450 Someone Doesn’t Want to Live Anymore
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;">November 1</font>

Two important things happened in China's film and television circles on this day.

The first is that the Hundred Flowers Awards ceremony was held in Lin'an.

The other one is the Golden Eagle TV Festival in Shonan.

In fact, as early as April, the list of candidates for the Hundred Flowers Awards for Popular Films was announced.

But Zhang Chen was busy with other things at that time and did not pay attention to the specific list of winners.

However, Tong Gang's arrival also allowed him to know that his movie "Love" had received many nominations while he was dealing with the public opinion in October.

"It's been so long since this movie was released, and now the awards are being given out."

"It's a public vote anyway, so it takes time for the public to vote, right?"

"Public choice?" Zhang Chen just smiled and said nothing.

"Where's Yifei?"

Zhang Chen heard the Film Bureau boss who came by plane ask this question, and he could only answer truthfully: "She has a show today."

"She's not going to the Golden Eagle Festival. I heard there's a selection for the Golden Eagle Goddess today."

"No."

Zhang Chen shook his head to deny it. The benefit of that thing to Liu Yifei was minimal. On the contrary, he himself was opposed to Liu Yifei playing a goddess on the stage for others to watch.

It’s not like Teacher He hasn’t come here to do his job.

But not only him, even Liu Yifei herself did not agree.

In the end, Li Xiaoping was just asked to take the company's "Drawing Sword" to participate in the award ceremony.

"Then why don't you go and accompany her?" Tong Gang and Zhang Chen entered the lounge specially prepared for them by Lin'an. It was said that this was officially prepared specifically for Zhang Chen, but no one knew whether it was true or not.

“I can’t be with her at every performance.”

"Oh my, so why are you, who usually doesn't attend award ceremonies, coming to the Hundred Flowers Awards?"

“.”Zhang Chen was speechless.

He couldn't possibly say that this was a task assigned by his mother, right?
He also couldn't understand why the little girl, who already had a lot of stage experience, had to have him come and watch her first performance.

Tong Gang's expression changed immediately. He looked at Zhang Chen suspiciously: "Are you here to cause trouble?"

"Director Tong, do you think I'm a troublemaker?" Zhang Chen was speechless. "I'm just participating in the Hundred Flowers Awards. The organizers thought so and even arranged a separate lounge for me so that I could have a good rest before the event. Isn't it because they don't want other people to have any contact with me and cause any conflicts they don't want to see?"

"Oh!" Tong Gang understood. So that's how this lounge came about. However, he disagreed with Zhang Chen's words. "Think about it carefully. Which award ceremony did you attend that didn't make some big news?"

"Of course," Zhang Chen subconsciously wanted to refute, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of any award ceremony where he had listened quietly. In the end, he could only smack his lips and said with a guilty conscience, "Of course there is!"

"Let me make it clear first, you are not allowed to cause any trouble this time!" Tong Gang was really a little scared.

"Sure, sure." Zhang Chen waved his hand nonchalantly, and then added, "As long as no one messes with me."

"Are there still fools who would actively mess with you these days?"

"Wasn't there one a while ago?"

"That's why I say he's a fool." Tong Gang sighed when he mentioned this, and then he became curious, "What exactly is in your folder that made the higher-ups pay so much attention to it?"

"Don't worry about what's in it, just tell me whether it's useful or not."

"It's useful! Very useful!" Tong Gang said with a rosy face, "I still have to do you a favor, but the people on the other side will feel uncomfortable."

"I hope you can give me a good result." Zhang Chen looked satisfied, "Otherwise, I will have wasted my time collecting intelligence."

"I'm also quite curious. Where do you get all these secrets?" Tong Gang said with a vigilant look on his face. "Don't tell me you are planting your own people everywhere!"

"How could that be possible?" Zhang Chen denied. "Some things can be found out if you look carefully. It's just a waste of money. And the last thing I lack is money."

"Rich dog!" Tong Gang muttered, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"That's why some young people come to me to grab a job without the consent of their elders."

"Hey hey hey!" Tong Gang hurriedly put down the teacup and reached out to stop Zhang Chen, "There are some things you can't say!"

Zhang Chen curled his lips, but didn't say anything else.

He had long known who was the real person behind the trouble.

The Liu family is nothing. Old Liu is just a researcher at best.

The same goes for things targeting him. He created a powerful enemy for no reason. A shrewd man like Lao Liu would never take action unless he saw benefits.

If Zhang Chen didn't know the old man's background, he might have been set up by him and those young people in collaboration with overseas capital.

The time is almost coming for the crisis on the other side of the ocean.

Zhang Chen has been planning this for such a long time, and there cannot be any accidents. This is related to his plan for the next ten years.

However, Zhang Chen felt uncomfortable when he thought that there might be a constant stream of flies harassing him during this period of time.

These banks should have heard the news by now, otherwise Liu Qing would not have come to China ahead of time under the arrangement of Goldman Sachs to trip him up.

If other banks from which he bought CDS also came to China to cause trouble for him, he would really be overwhelmed to deal with it.

It was an insurance policy worth tens of billions of dollars, and he just suffered a little bit of public opinion turmoil.

There is something unreal in the absurdity.

So peaceful.

"Director Tong, Teacher Zhang Chen, you can enter now."

"Is it time?" Tong Gang put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and looked at Zhang Chen, "Let's go?"

"Yeah." Zhang Chen also put down his crossed legs and put the cup on the coffee table.

Ding-Dang
"Teacher Zhang Chen, are you scalded?" The staff member was startled by the fallen teacup and hurried forward to check if Zhang Chen was splashed by the tea.

Zhang Chen waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to worry.

It's just that he was thinking about something and his mind was distracted. There's no need to make a fuss.

"Why are you still distracted?" Tong Gang glanced at Zhang Chen curiously before leaving. "This is not like your usual self. Are you worried about something?"

Zhang Chen didn't say anything, but when he walked out, he looked back at the porcelain cup that had broken into pieces on the ground.

"fine."

In the blink of an eye, the world has changed.

This year's Hundred Flowers Awards abandoned the previous format of stars walking the red carpet. Lin'an laid a "Hundred Flowers Avenue" on the Baidi Bridge in West Lake for the awards ceremony.

The stars who arrive need to take a small boat to go ashore and have close contact with the fans on the shore.

"Why are other people accompanied by beautiful women, but here I have to be accompanied by an old man like you?" Zhang Chen looked at Tong Gang in front of him speechlessly.

The others are basically a pair of one man and one woman, with several groups riding on one small boat.

But when he got here, he and Tong Gang were the only two people on the huge boat.

In addition, there are only their respective assistants.

"You can just shout out which female star wants to get on this boat. I believe you will be welcomed by all the female stars here." Tong Gang pointed at the many stars who were watching the three of them not far away, "Look at those female stars. When they see that you are not accompanied by Yifei, their eyes are almost flying towards you."

Zhang Chen looked around and saw that all the celebrities in the circle were waiting for them to get on board.

Among them are the two Bings from Chenguang Entertainment, as well as actresses such as Gao Yuanyuan and Shu Chang.

After the questioning at the beginning of the month, Fan Bingbing and Li Bingbing's reputation has become even higher.

A star’s income is also one of the criteria for judging his or her status in the circle.

These female stars of Chenguang Entertainment are undoubtedly some of the most profitable people in the entire Chinese entertainment industry.

So they were arranged by the organizers to a very front position.

Behind these three are Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Xun and others. The three golden flowers of Chenguang have completely overshadowed the "Entertainment Industry Flower Selection" that was stopped before it even started.

Because no matter whether it is appearance, reputation, works, pay and other comprehensive considerations, these three from Chenguang Entertainment are unique.

There was still one person pressing on them.

But this person is generally not included in the selection range.

After all, there are too many bugs and there is no comparison.

As for the so-called "little actor" competition, no one dared to mention it since Zhang Chen was not interested in and would not allow himself to be included in the "little actor" list by the media.

After all, how can people be convinced without Zhang Chen’s “Four Little Freshmen”?

"Stop looking, the boat is about to sail."

Tong Gang's words drew Zhang Chen's attention back to the boat they were on.

This boat is different from the boats that usually receive tourists in West Lake.

Although the boat is still the same boat, the colorful flower decorations on it still reflect the distinctive theme of "hundred flowers".

Fortunately, Zhang Chen is not allergic to pollen, otherwise this boat full of flowers would be enough for him to bear.

The two of them drifted downstream, and the shore along the way was filled with dense crowds of fans.

Even though they were far away, they could hear the shouts from the shore.

"Zhang Chen!!! Zhang Chen is out!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"

"Zhang Chen, look here!!!"

"It's really different when I appear with big stars. No one cares about a passerby like me." Tong Gang looked at Zhang Chen's profile with a sour tone, "I usually attend award ceremonies. I can't say that I am welcomed by many people, but I have never been ignored to this extent."

"Is that why you asked me to be in that movie?"

"You are at least a graduate of the acting department of Beijing Film Academy, and you have played so many classic screen roles." Tong Gang refused to admit it and argued, "How could I be greedy for your fame?"

“Then I’m still a director.”

"Then you and Old Han can just co-direct it, but you have to play a role in it. The entire entertainment industry is scrambling for the script, and you're still scorning it."

"It's not that I dislike it." Zhang Chen wanted to explain that the movie was shot in 09 and he might not be able to participate, but after thinking about it, he just said casually, "Let's talk about it after I finish my concert."

"Remember to leave five... No! Ten tickets for our bureau!"

“I know, I know.”

Just at this time the boat also docked, Zhang Chen stood up and walked out shoulder to shoulder with Tong Gang.

The outside was already full of fans who had been waiting for a long time.

These fans include young and old, tall and short, male and female.

However, their expressions and movements were surprisingly consistent.

Regardless of gender, age or status, everyone rushed forward frantically the moment Zhang Chen stepped ashore.

The poor isolation belt lasted only half a second before it was torn into pieces by crazy fans.

The moment everyone rushed out of the isolation zone, they all ran towards Zhang Chen.

The surprised and excited faces, accompanied by screams and exclamations, plunged the scene into chaos.

"Zhang Chen!!!"

"Ah, don't squeeze me!"

"Zhang Chen!!! Can you sign an autograph for me?"

"Zhang Chen, can we take a photo together?"

Zhang Chen was also startled by the crazy fan who suddenly appeared in front of him.

He had witnessed this scene many times, but this time he was facing the crazy crowd alone.

At this moment, he regretted neglecting his own security measures because of Tong Gang's presence.

But it's useless to think about anything at this time.

He could only put on a smile and accept one album and poster after another.

He picked up a pen that belonged to someone else and was forced to start working.

However, deep down he hoped that the security guards who saw the situation here could come as soon as possible and rescue him.

The densely packed crowds of people around him were really suffocating.

He couldn't quite tell whether a female fan was deliberately blocking the gas or the physical contact was caused by the crowded crowd.

Anyway, he felt like every inch of his upper body was in contact with someone.

This made Zhang Chen, who had a mild mysophobia, feel extremely uncomfortable and a little uneasy.

At the moment when a sense of uneasiness emerged, he felt a sharp object on his ribs, which was different from physical contact.

He fell violently backwards.

The crowd behind him also staggered collectively because of his violent movements.

But because there were too many people, Zhang Chen's body was pushed back to its original position.

"Get out of my way!"

Without caring about anything else, Zhang Chen roared loudly, his voice resounding through the sky, drowning out the crowd around him.

The fans surrounding him were frightened by Zhang Chen's sudden roar and fell into deathly silence in an instant.

Zhang Chen ignored the strange expressions on the faces of the fans around him. Instead, he frantically scanned the surroundings, trying to find anyone with a strange look on his face.

Finally, his eyes fell on a man wearing a baseball cap and a mask on his face that only revealed a pair of eyes.

However, he did not act rashly, and his eyes continued to glance to the side without stopping.

However, his peripheral vision was always paying attention to this person's every move.

Perhaps it was Zhang Chen's glance that made this person alert and he began to quietly retreat behind the crowd.

Zhang Chen was anxious, but did not say anything to stop him, for fear that the man would suddenly attack and hurt someone.

He has a bulletproof vest lining, which ordinary people don't have.

Although he couldn't be sure what the other party had taken, judging from the feeling through the bulletproof vest just now, that thing could definitely pierce human skin easily.

People can never escape.

But he wanted to make sure there were no other innocent victims.

Because this is an award ceremony broadcast live by Spoon TV.

And because of his presence, many overseas fans were also watching the live broadcast.

Now the stunned fans around him have already made the scene awkward. If something else goes wrong, things will really get out of hand.

"Who was stepping on my foot?" Zhang Chen raised his foot and rubbed it in pretending to be in pain, complaining unhappily, "If I hadn't shouted, my foot would have been broken."

Although he was talking to the people around him, his eyes were always fixed on that person.

"boss."

Finally, Xue Yining, who realized something was wrong, squeezed in, asked in a low voice and brought security with her.

"Evacuate the crowd first." Zhang Chen leaned over to Xue Yining's ear and whispered, "Control the man wearing a black baseball cap and a mask."

"Yes!" Xue Yining's eyes became extremely sharp when she looked down and saw that there was a hole in Zhang Chen's clothes on his ribs.

Some people don't want to live anymore!
　Some people always think that no one dares to touch the protagonist. I can only say that they are naive.
