Huayu 1995

Chapter 71 Too insidious
Now everyone in the training classes knows why the principal, when facing a formidable enemy, leisurely took a broken hammer and hung photos on the wall.

That is a form of deterrence.

This made the trainees feel incredibly proud.

They dream of achieving success and fame one day.

They will also be eligible to be displayed on the wall at that time.

Having gone through the business inspection, the training class's cohesion has soared to unprecedented heights, with many trainees applying for accommodation.

It makes me feel so safe.

Unfortunately, the courtyard was already full, unless the landlady was kicked out.

Lu Bu planned to rent the small courtyard next door as well, and then have Duan Ming clean and renovate it to serve as temporary dormitories for the trainees.

You rent a bed for fifty yuan and then sublet it for eighty yuan.

The extra thirty yuan will be used to improve the living environment.

In fact, they won't make money off the students.

This was something Su Chao had entrusted to him to do.

He had to make sure it was done perfectly.

"They wanted to sign me to film in Hong Kong, but I refused."

Su Chao sighed and said he had just shown off.

"Then why don't you go!"

Lu Bu was anxious; he was simply feeling sorry for Su Chao.

For people today, Hong Kong's entertainment industry is practically a mecca for Chinese-language films.

"We're just getting started here. What would it be for me to go over there? Forget it, opportunities are everywhere. It's more important to seize the ones we have now."

Winning people's hearts is an essential skill for entrepreneurs.

Su Chao had already maxed out this skill in his previous life.

Lü Bu was indeed deeply moved.

Brother Chao gave up an opportunity that others dreamed of for them.

Once inside the karaoke bar, Su Chao began to sing. After he had sung a few songs, Yuen Woo-ping and others arrived.

At this moment, Su Chao was playing "Rolling Red Dust" to evoke melancholy throughout the audience.

"Easy to come, hard to leave / A few decades of wandering in this world / Easy to part, hard to reunite / The eternal sorrow of love and hate..."

The advantage of being the top hostess isn't that the drinking fees are higher.

Instead, Su Chao can do whatever he wants, and he doesn't need to apply for permission to sing any songs he wants. He can just give the song list to the sound engineer.

The sound engineer bowed and scraped to meet all of Su Chao's requests.

Upon seeing Yuen Woo-ping and his group enter from the stage, Su Chao waved enthusiastically to them.

Yuen Woo-ping responded with a smile.

"I was talking about him before, he's a pretty interesting kid."

"She's good-looking, and has a rather unique air about her..."

Zhang Xinyan hadn't seen a young person like this in a long time... Despite his young age, he possessed a contradictory maturity and confidence.

"Gentlemen, did Lance book this private room for you? Please follow me."

Yan Siyuan personally greeted the guests.

According to his and Sister Hong's division of labor, Sister Hong should have done this job, but since Sister Hong doesn't speak Cantonese, he was the one who had to entertain the guests from Hong Kong.

"Lance... Oh, right, he said his stage name here is Lance. Is he a signed singer here?"

Yuen Woo-ping observed the layout of Casablanca and was surprised that there were such high-quality entertainment venues in mainland China.

Every time he comes to the mainland, he feels the rapid changes taking place there.

"right……"

Yan Siyuan wanted to rub his face again.

Because Su Chao's next song is Roman Tam's "Twilight".

This song wasn't originally that popular.

It might take ten days or half a month for someone to know how to do it.

After Su Chao arrived, he started singing, and it gradually became one of his representative works that made others feel depressed.

"The name 'Green Jade Table' for the private room is also very nice, thank you..."

Several people entered the private room.

Yu Chenghui didn't come tonight; as a martial artist, he felt that this place would wear down one's will.

Indulging in alcohol and sex can easily make one look haggard.

Those who came were Yuen Woo-ping, Zhang Xinyan, martial arts instructor Xiao Xu, and production manager A Qiang.

They are all employees of Jinhui Company.

They came to the mainland this time to find new talent who fit the company's development.

The mainland is full of talented people, and the pay is extremely low, which is perfect for a new company like theirs that mainly focuses on real skills and doesn't have much financial strength.

In addition, there is their newly signed artist, Wu Jing.

Wu Jing knew he wasn't the only one.

And that handsome guy singing downstairs—Wu Jing is already considered a good-looking man in the sports school, but he has to admit that he is far inferior to Su Chao in terms of appearance.

Yuen Woo-ping repeatedly praised Su Chao, but it was a pity that Su Chao was unwilling to sign with them. This made Wu Jing feel a little sour.

After Su Chao finished singing five songs, he went straight upstairs.

Lü Bu was seated outside the door.

It's impossible to just rush in and start snapping photos; that's not taking pictures to hang on the wall, that's catching someone cheating.

Lift the blanket and slap directly.

After exchanging pleasantries, Su Chao successfully got to know Zhang Xinyan.

As for Wu Jing, who still looks rather young, he's just a junior, so there's no need to pay him too much attention.

Gradually, the topic shifted to the martial arts world in mainland China.

Zhang Xinyan and Yuan Heping were both interested in this. The version they heard from Yu Chenghui, Yu Hai, and others was quite different from the version from the folk martial arts world like Su Chao's.

Su Chao knows a lot.

He recounted decades of unofficial history of martial arts in mainland China in a captivating and engaging manner, much like listening to a storyteller.

However, both Yu Chenghui and Yu Hai had a devout reverence for martial arts.

Su Chao, however, lacked reverence and treated martial arts as a tool.

Moreover, he insisted that the most effective trick was kicking the balls.

Kick the balls first in a fight, and you'll have a much higher chance of winning.

Those who frequently get kicked know that the consequences range from minor testicular distress to being sentenced to a life without a wife.

This made Wu Jing, who originally wanted to find a place to spar with him, now not even dare to mention it.

When Su Chao looked at him, he couldn't help but clench his fists.

Damn, that's so insidious.

"Why don't you go to a sports school and become an athlete? Our deputy head coach Li Junfeng seems to be from Cangzhou."

Wu Jing was very curious about this.

A martial arts practitioner is actually singing in a nightclub.

This is like Lin Chong, the chief instructor of the 800,000 Imperial Guards, becoming a courtesan.

And he even stole Li Shishi's thunder.

Wu Jing is a national spear champion. He formally started learning martial arts at the age of six. When he heard Su Chao say that he started learning martial arts at the age of three or four, he felt that he and Su Chao were in the same boat.

"I don't know how to do that."

As for the athletes, naturally the Zhang and Li families went first, and it wouldn't be the original owner's turn at all.

"Have you considered entering the entertainment industry? We can go to Hong Kong together and try our luck."

Wu Jing is a fairly open-minded person.

At first, I was indeed worried that Su Chao would change his mind and steal my opportunity.

After all, Su Chao is more handsome than him.

He comes from a place known for its martial arts, so his skills must be quite good.

But then I thought about it.

Opportunities that are meant to be his cannot be taken away by others, and those that are not meant to be his cannot be forced to stay.

His future in the Hong Kong entertainment industry is uncertain.

He also knew that people in the Hong Kong entertainment industry looked down on mainlanders. Back when they filmed "Shaolin Temple" together, even Jet Li, the male lead, was bullied in various ways.

Having more companions would be nice.

They were about the same age—Wu Jing didn't know that Su Chao was three years younger than him.

Su Chao, this reborn individual, has such a mature demeanor.

The premise is that he doesn't try to look young.

They are both martial arts enthusiasts and have a lot in common.

Being from the same mainland, we became natural allies over there.

"I'm not going for now. I need to release an album. And if I do go, I might go see Wai Ka-fai first; I have an appointment with him."

Su Chao definitely won't sign with Yuen Woo-ping's Golden Harvest.

It's a dead end.

Yuen Woo-ping's previous success with "Tai Chi Master" led to the production of "Wing Chun" and "Legend of the Fire Cloud." The former grossed over four million Hong Kong dollars, while the latter grossed over one million, effectively killing his Peace Film Productions.

Yeh Chuan-chen reached a new level of beauty.

Next, the new company, Jinhui Pictures, is working on "Kung Fu Kid's Love Trials," which is also consistently a flop.

Yuen Woo-ping could only direct TV series such as "Tai Chi Master" and "Little Li Flying Dagger".

Later, he went to Hollywood to try his luck.

If Su Chao had the choice, he would definitely choose to collaborate with Milkyway Image.

"Wai Ka-fai?"

Yuen Woo-ping certainly knew this person.

"Yes, a few days ago, I was sitting in this private room with him discussing the script. He invited me to be his assistant, but I plan to talk about it later."

Su Chao spoke the truth.

He genuinely hates boasting; people should trust each other.
