HuaYu97: Starting as a Singer

Chapter 442 [442] Feng Xiaogang's sleepless night after the release of "My Sassy Girl"?
Fan Xiaopang, who had just arrived in Hong Kong to attend the Hong Kong premiere of "My Sassy Girl," was completely bewildered.

As soon as she appeared at the airport, dozens of reporters surrounded her.

She was quite happy at first, thinking that it might be because she was too famous in Hong Kong and the media reporters were very interested in her.

She started to feel numb after the reporter asked the question.

"Ms. Fan, did you come to Hong Kong to catch your lover cheating?"

"Did you know that your rumored boyfriend, Qi Yuan, spent the night at Hong Kong actress Charlene Choi's house last night?"

Do you feel like you've been cheated on?

"Excuse me……"

Various questions about Qi Yuan and Asa were raised.

"!??"

Thankfully, she managed her facial expressions well; otherwise, reporters would definitely have taken many close-up photos of her expressions and written extensively about them.

"I just came from the capital. I don't know what you're talking about, and I don't know what happened between Qi Yuan and that Miss Cai."

Please don't misunderstand our relationship. Qi Yuan and I are very good friends and colleagues.

I'm in Hong Kong to attend the premiere of my new movie..."

Fan Xiaopang's answer was already very polite and appropriate.

But how could this possibly stump Hong Kong media outlets, which are adept at crafting headlines?

By the afternoon, a new newspaper was published.

[Shocking! Fan Binbin says the situation between Qi Yuan and Charlene Choi won't affect his relationship with Qi Yuan!]

Fan Xiaopang: "..."

She wanted nothing more than to drag the editor who wrote this little essay out and chop him up. Is this how you're supposed to interpret my words? Remove the "friendship" from "friendship" and keep only the suggestive "feelings," is that it?

Hong Kong netizens and citizens started watching the drama unfold, while Asa's male fans had mixed feelings.

"Another day of envying Qi Yuan, he's even won over Asa."

"Shut up! Without any evidence, what makes you say that Qi Yuan has taken over our Asa? Maybe they were just discussing cooperation?"

"Damn Qi Yuan, I won't allow you to touch our Asa!!!"

"Fan Binbin actually said he doesn't care, is that true?"

"Long-time fans are used to this. You guys don't understand at all. Qi Yuan is just gathering inspiration. As long as Qi Yuan can write good songs, it doesn't matter to me which female celebrity he dates, since I can't date her anyway."

……

Qi Yuan's scandal ignited the entire Hong Kong.

F4 and local Hong Kong artists were devastated.

Qi Yuan always dominates the headlines whenever he comes to Hong Kong, and he's getting more and more outrageous each time. How are they supposed to survive?
Qi Yuan's popularity has soared, and the popularity of his new song continues to rise, making it quite difficult for singers in the Hong Kong music scene who are trying to suppress Qi Yuan.

They were all ganging up on Qi Yuan, which should have been an easy victory for the group. So why did they feel that Qi Yuan was chasing after them all?

There were also happy people, such as Wang Jing.

Qi Yuan and Asa's scandal dragged Fan Xiaopang into it. Fan Xiaopang is the female lead of "My Sassy Girl," which directly brought a lot of popularity to the film.

……

Qi Yuan attended the premiere of "My Sassy Girl".

Fan Xiaopang rolled his eyes at Qi Yuan and asked sourly, "Why didn't that sweet girl from Yinghuang come? Isn't she your rumored girlfriend from Hong Kong?"

Qi Yuan smiled and said, "Weren't you once my rumored girlfriend? Now that you've gone upstairs, you want to pull the ladder away?"

Fan Xiaopang was speechless: "..."

No problem, that's how she got to the top too – by clinging to Qi Yuan's coattails and creating scandals with him in Japan!
Moreover, she was stealing her own good sister's boyfriend, so they were evenly matched and she really couldn't criticize Asa. Therefore, Fan Xiaopang changed his mind: "Sooner or later, I will become one of the brightest stars in Asia, even the world, and be on the same level as you."

Qi Yuan is talented, handsome, and rich. He can also help female celebrities' careers. Which female celebrity wouldn't want to get close to Qi Yuan?

Fan Xiaopang understands all of this.

To suppress all the female celebrities and make Qi Yuan settle down, she has no choice but to become stronger.

Fan Xiaopang is now full of confidence in his future.

The film "Bouquet" made her famous in East Asia. If "My Sassy Girl" is also successful, she will be a true top-tier Asian film actress.

Moreover, she was willing to work hard and worked much harder than Qi Yuan, so she felt that if she gave it her all, she should be able to barely catch up with Qi Yuan.

"I wish you success."

Qi Yuan didn't want to undermine Fan Xiaopang's confidence.

Fan Xiaopang is very strong; in his previous life, he became a wealthy figure in the entertainment industry.

Although her claim of being from a wealthy family is a marketing ploy by her team, she is genuinely rich.

The title of "800 millionaire" is not just a joke; the key is that she actually has that much money, which puts her ahead of 99% of her peers in the industry.

But... if she wanted to catch up with Qi Yuan, she overestimated herself.

Putting everything else aside, once Qi Yuan releases a few more English albums, just calculating the steady stream of royalties alone will be enough to surpass 99% of the world's stars.

Moreover, he is also one of the shareholders of Tencent, pig farming companies, and Sohu.

In the past year or so, there have been almost no media outlets digging into Qi Yuan's personal wealth and income.

First, three of the four major portals in mainland China are related to Qi Yuan.

Secondly, Warner and Starry Sky have started to exert their influence.

In the early days of his fame, it didn't matter much for the media to dig into Qi Yuan's income; he didn't earn anything too outrageous.

On the contrary, people might see him as a youth idol and use him as an inspirational role model, which could attract more casual fans.

It's time to keep a low profile.

In later generations, most wealthy people who exposed their wealth in front of the camera for extended periods of time would eventually face a scandal.

If someone's income is exposed too often or they flaunt it too frequently, it can easily provoke public resentment!
Qi Yuan had read the script for the future, so naturally he needed to prepare in advance.

……

The premiere of "My Sassy Girl" begins.

Qi Yuan acted as an ordinary guest, watching Wang Jing, Fan Xiaopang, Zhang Zhilin and other main creators talk about their filming experiences on stage and interact with the fans in the audience.

Finally, Qi Yuan, like everyone else present, watched the entire movie.

Qi Yuan believes this version of "My Sassy Girl" is better than the original, and the male and female leads' looks alone are a winner.

Fan Bingbing is more handsome than that eccentric South Korean actress, and Zhang Zhilin is even more handsome, easily surpassing the male lead in the Korean version.

The female lead's character was almost tailor-made for Fan Xiaopang, and Fan Xiaopang's performance was spot-on.

Needless to say, Zhang Zhilin has so much experience in this area that he brings his life experiences to the screen, resulting in a smooth and natural acting style.

The film officially premiered simultaneously in mainland China and Hong Kong at 6 PM.

Feng Xiaogang's "Big Shot's Funeral" premiered at noon, six hours longer than "My Sassy Girl".

These two films were already at odds before their release, and the media, audiences, netizens... everyone was very curious about how it would end.

At 12 a.m. on December 22, Feng Xiaogang and Wang Jing were both awake. They dared not sleep, as they were waiting for the box office data.

Finally, they received the news they had been waiting for.
