Huayu started by playing Lao Ai

Chapter 193 I'm Crazy About Singing
Early in the morning on the 15th, Zheng Jing arrived at the studio of Shanghai Film Studio.

In addition to Zheng Jing, the judges of the Shanghai regional preliminaries include Shanghai Theatre Academy teacher He Yan, Shanghai Film Studio leader Ren Zhonglun, and Mango TV program producer Xia Qing.

In terms of judges’ fame, the Shanghai preliminary round is not as good as the Yanjing one.

However, the overall strength of the contestants is top-notch, even slightly higher than that of the Yanjing competition area.

Whether it is the professional group or the amateur group, the Shanghai area has the largest number of registrants.

Many actors from Hengdian choose to compete in Shanghai.

As for beauties, Zheng Jing saw Song Jia, Tong Lei and others, as well as two little surprises.

One is called Zhou Xianxin, who looks very similar to Gong Li.

This woman later served as Gong Li's stand-in in the movie "Zhou Yu's Train".

Another one is Yang Xin, who started out as a singer and participated in an acting talent show in order to become famous.

Her looks are only around 70 or 80 points, a bit like Yi Nengjing, but her figure is very hot.

Zheng Jing also had an impression of this woman, who was signed by Feng Xiaogang in the future and played roles in "Big Shot" and "Cell Phone".

Huayi promoted her for a while, calling her the mainland version of Amy Yip, the mainland's No. 1 busty beauty, and she was also a little popular for a while.

Just getting around in the entertainment industry, small fame depends on promotion, big fame depends on luck.

Yang Xin's name and appearance are not distinctive enough, and it is difficult for her to become famous just by relying on her figure.

After a few years of struggling and failing to make a breakthrough, he gradually withdrew from the circle.

The reason why Zheng Jing thought these two women were surprises was also to increase the popularity of the show.

One of them looks very similar to Gong Li, so they can take advantage of Gong Li's popularity and also talk about the "stand-in" actors in the entertainment industry;

The other one has a good figure, so she can sell some meat to create hype, and also talk about the demand and discrimination against big-breasted actresses in the film and television industry.

These are very controversial topics.

Of course, Zheng Jing's main focus is on his gaming friend Wan Qian.

As one of the "goddesses in the lesbian circle", Wan Qian with short hair is indeed very aggressive.

She is pretty good-looking and has good acting skills, and has performed in some dramas at school.

In Zheng Jing's opinion, Wan Qian's image and acting skills are suitable, and she can be a candidate for the heroine of "My Sassy Girl".

With the help of Zheng Jing, Wan Qian successfully advanced to the finals on the first day.

When playing games at night, she kept praising Zheng Jing to Li Xiaoran.

"President, you are right. Zheng Jing is really handsome! The boys in our class can't compare to him."

"His acting skills are amazing, and he can also teach us how to act. I feel like he's even better than our teacher."

"You know, I acted out a scene with him today. When he hugged me, I felt my heart beat for the first time."

"I regret cutting my hair short. I feel like Zheng Jing looks at me like a brother."

Li Xiaoran looked at Wan Qian's infatuated remarks and reminded her, "Zheng Jing is very philandering, don't get caught up in it."

Unexpectedly, Wan Qian replied: "Being fickle is nothing, I don't care at all.

I can even help him find beautiful women.

It’s also good to have more sisters.”

Wan Qian is really open-minded and takes things very seriously.

Even if her husband cheated on her with other women in the future, Wan Qian would remain calm.

Li Xiaoran was impressed by her words, so she said, "Well, you've made it to the finals. When you come to Yanjing, you can come to see me. I'll arrange a surprise for you."

"What surprise?"

"Keep it a secret for now. I'll tell you when you get there. It will definitely be a surprise to you."

After all, Son Ye-jin and Han Chae-young are Koreans, so Li Xiaoran decided to find another ally.

Wan Qian is a good candidate.

Zheng Jing didn’t know about the conversation between Li Xiaoran and Wan Qian. After he finished recording the show during the day, he attended the welcome dinner organized by the Shanghai International Film Festival in the evening.

The film festival opened on June 6th and a welcome dinner was held after the opening.

We're doing it again tonight to welcome the celebrity guests who will be attending the closing ceremony and award ceremony.

Especially Sophie Marceau.

This international star was the focus of the night. She wore a pink dress and had a great temperament and appearance, showing the charm and style of the French Rose.

In comparison, beauties like Gong Li and Chen Hong seem to be inferior.

This is not because of appearance or figure, but the arrangement of the organizing committee.

In Edinburgh, Sophie Marceau enjoyed absolutely super treatment. Almost every request she made was granted. Even before the interview, a leader from Shanghai Culture came out to warn the reporter not to ask questions that were not necessary and to show the warm and hospitable side of the Chinese people.

In this situation, Sophie Marceau is definitely the center of attention, and all the limelight is on her, and no one can compete with her.

Zheng Jing did not go to Sophie Marceau to join in the fun. After socializing for a while, he took Li Binbin and found an empty sofa to sit down.

Li Binbin arrived in Shanghai at noon today.

In order to promote "Burning the Boats", Zheng Jing walked the red carpet of the closing ceremony with Li Binbin and even presented the awards together.

Li Binbin also benefited from Zheng Jing.

Otherwise, with her current popularity and status, she would not be qualified to be an award presenter.

Not long after Zheng Jing sat down, a middle-aged man wearing glasses and a woman with short hair came over.

"Hello, President Zheng. I'm Jin Guoping, and this is my business card. This is Xie Yanyan, a well-known writer who specializes in children's literature."

Zheng Jing took the business card and took a look at it.

Jin Guoping has many titles, the first of which is the director of Shanghai Art Film Studio.

"Hello, Mr. Jin, do you have something to talk to me about? Let's sit down and talk." Jin Guoping came over on his own initiative, with someone around him, obviously coming for Zheng Jing.

"It's like this." After sitting down, Jin Guoping said: "Our art studio learned the style of Japanese animation and produced a cartoon called "I Love Singing".

We would like to ask you to help write two songs for this cartoon."

Although Zheng Jing has not released any albums, his reputation as a musical talent is already widely known.

The songs he composed for film and television dramas and commercials are very popular.

Moreover, songs like "Girl with Wings" and "Invisible Wings" are popular among young people, with fresh and positive styles.

It really meets the requirements of “I’m crazy about singing”.

Zheng Jing was a little surprised to hear Jin Guoping's words. He thought about it and said, "Okay, but the copyright of my song will not be sold, and I will choose the singer."

The animated film "I Love Singing" is considered to be the last popular work of Shanghai Art Studio.

It was also popular in the country for a while, with high ratings and high popularity.

Zheng Jing was about to release an album for Jing Tian, so he wrote two songs for Jing Tian to be used in "I'm Crazy about Singing", which would also increase the popularity of the songs.

After all, there are successful cases before.

The popularity of Zhang Xinzhe's "Love is Just a Word" and Li Wen's "Missing You 365 Days" is also related to the popular cartoon "The Lotus Lantern" produced by Shanghai Art Factory.

"No problem, we know your rules."

The copyrights of the songs written by Zheng Jing are in his own hands, and everyone in the circle knows this.

When Jin Guoping came to Zheng Jing to seek cooperation, he accepted this condition.

“That’s fine, just send me the characters and plot introduction of the animation.

After I return to Yanjing, I will write two songs and send them to you after recording them. "

"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Zheng!"

Jin Guoping smiled happily. He didn't expect Zheng Jing to give him so much face and the discussion went so smoothly.

He said, "Mr. Zheng, I heard that your company is recruiting people and is preparing to set up an animation company. If there is any room for cooperation, you can also contact us."

The Shanghai Art Film Studio was once a leading animation production company in China and even in the world. Its early animations, such as Journey to the West: Conquering the Dragon King, The Magic Book, and Nezha Conquers the Dragon King, have won numerous awards.

Although it has declined at this time, it still has some heritage.

Zheng Jing smiled and said, "If there is a chance, we can cooperate."

He was just being polite.

Du Wei discussed with Zheng Jing and planned to open an animation company in Chang'an and develop in-depth cooperation with Chang'an Art School.

The biggest cost in animation production, whether it is cartoons or comics, is manpower.

And when it comes to the technical differences between painters, there is actually not much difference between those in first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen and those in second-tier cities.

Opening an animation company in a second-tier city has lower costs in all aspects, and artists are more willing to work in a team. The pace of life is slower, and they can concentrate on their creations.

The overall benefits are greater than those in first-tier cities.

Zheng Jing chatted with Jin Guoping for a while and then prepared to retreat.

But he saw Sophie Marceau and others walking towards him.

On her left is the official leader, and on her right is the great historian of the country.

Sophie Marceau's participation in the film festival was also officially recognized as a cultural exchange activity between China and France.

Coming to Zheng Jing, Sophie Marceau took the initiative to say in English: "Zheng, hello! I've seen your archery performance, it's amazing!"

In fact, Sophie Marceau has read "The Da Vinci Code" written by Zheng Jing and has a good impression of the author Zheng Jing.

She is an artistic woman who appreciates art and wisdom, and is not very interested in muscles and sports.

This can be seen from Sophie Marceau's choice of partner.

It’s just that the book The Da Vinci Code is a bit sensitive, and Sophie Marceau didn’t want to talk about it in public, so she took the initiative to mention the performance of “Shooting the Halberd at the Gate”.

"Thank you for the compliment!" Zheng Jing kissed Sophie Marceau on the cheek, smelled the scent of tulips, and then said, "I have watched your "First Kiss" at least ten times."

Zheng Jing: This is just a polite remark made in business dealings, but Sophie Marceau smiled happily, as if she took it seriously.

The main reason is that after coming to China, Sophie Marceau was followed wherever she went, which gave her the illusion that she really had a lot of fans in China.

Sophie Marceau invited: "Tomorrow I will hold the premiere of the movie I starred in. You are welcome to attend."

"I'm sorry, but I have work arrangements tomorrow."

Zheng Jing refused, as he had to record a show tomorrow.

Before Sophie Marceau could say anything, her boss said, "What kind of work is this? If it's not important, you can change your schedule."

"Very important."

Zheng Jing's answer was concise and to the point, and the leader had nothing to say.

Sophie Marceau smiled and said, "Are you free the day after tomorrow morning? I am very interested in Chinese history and would like to visit the museum.

You are very knowledgeable. I should be able to learn a lot if I have you by my side. "

Sophie Marceau really wanted to visit the museum. She had read The Da Vinci Code and felt that Zheng Jing knew a lot. If he knew Western culture so well, then he must know her own country's culture better.

So I took the initiative to extend the invitation.

"I'll take you around the day after tomorrow when I'm free." Zheng Jing said, "If you want to know anything, you can tell me in advance. The museum may not have what you want to see."

"Thank you so much!"

After chatting with Zheng Jing for a few words, Sophie Marceau went to find Jiang Wen surrounded by everyone.

Zheng Jing winked at Li Binbin and left the banquet hall.

Li Xing has arranged everything, and tonight the sisters will be united and work out together.
