Bright Era of China Entertainment

Chapter 77 Say I Cried (7000-word chapter)
When he first met Concubine Liu Yi, Chu Xuan visited Concubine Liu's house several times with some classmates in his class.

As the relationship with Concubine Liu Yi got better and better, Chu Xuan was also invited by Liu Xiaoli to visit Concubine Liu's house several times alone.

Generally speaking, I have been here but not often.

Concubine Liu Yi opened the door with the key, and after Chu Xuan and her walked in, Liu Xiaoli warmly welcomed Chu Xuan's arrival.

However, what surprised and amuses Liu Xiaoli is that Chu Xuan brought a box of white wine to the door?OK?
"Chu Xuan, are you planning to overwhelm Auntie today?" Liu Xiaoli smiled.

Concubine Liu Yi chuckled, Chu Xuan couldn't beat her mother with red wine, but Chu Xuan was better with white wine.

Some things can only be said after drinking.

However, in order to prevent his mother from getting drunk in advance, Chu Xuan could only drink liquor with her mother.

She has liquor at home, but Chu Xuan just insisted on buying a box for himself, saying that his mother would not refuse to bring liquor as a guest, and if she drank liquor from her house, then mother would not necessarily drink liquor.

Chu Xuan said, this is a conspiracy.

"No way, I've come to my aunt's house so many times for lunch, so I'm a little embarrassed to come here today without bringing anything." Chu Xuan laughed while holding a box of white wine.

Liu Xiaoli waved her hands and said with a smile: "There's nothing to be embarrassed about, you are really too, come in quickly."

Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli sat down at the dining table.

"So many dishes?"

"I heard you were coming, so I bought a few more."

"You're too polite, Auntie."

"Nothing, eat quickly."

Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli were polite here, while Concubine Liu Yi brought two wine dispensers and small wine glasses from the kitchen, and put a set in front of Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli in a very sensible way.

"Why are you so active?" Liu Xiaoli smiled.

Concubine Liu Yi smiled, and said: "I have always had a question in my mind, that is, how did you successfully trade me with Shenghai, maybe I can witness it on the spot today."

Hearing this, Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli laughed happily.

The next moment, Concubine Liu Yi opened up the wine, filled the pourers, and poured wine for the two of them with a charming smile.

"I don't usually drink baijiu, but Chu Xuan, you brought wine here today, so Auntie will drink some with you."

Hearing Liu Xiaoli's words, Concubine Liu Yi who poured the wine laughed heartily.

She glanced at Chu Xuan vaguely, as if to say: "Your conspiracy has succeeded."

Seeing this, Chu Xuan secretly smiled.

A liquor dispenser is only about 2 taels full, which is not enough to talk about.

Chu Xuan discovered a characteristic of his "mother-in-law". He is more emotional when he drinks well, and he is easy to talk and listen to other people's words.

"Auntie, thank you for the hospitality, I respect you."

"There is no hospitality, just a few side dishes."

Now that he has found the characteristics of "mother-in-law", Chu Xuan naturally has to prescribe the right medicine.

Chu Xuan took the initiative to find topics, and at the very beginning, he just chatted about the trivial things of daily life, without getting into the main topic.

However, Concubine Liu Yi was in a hurry, and lightly kicked Chu Xuan under the table, lowered her head while eating and gave Chu Xuan a sideways look, as if to say, "Let's get down to business!"

Seeing this, Chu Xuan smiled, and shook his head imperceptibly, as if to say: "Wait a minute, don't worry, your mother's wine is not ready yet."

As if she had a tacit understanding, Concubine Liu Yi seemed to understand Chu Xuan's meaning, so she stopped urging her and let Chu Xuan do her best, while she quietly ate the food and listened to Chu Xuan chatting with her mother.

After half an hour.

After the liquor in the two dispensers was finished, Chu Xuan saw the "mother-in-law" with a slightly dazed look in his eyes.

Chu Xuan felt that the time had come.

"Auntie, I have a gossip here."

"What gossip?"

Hearing Chu Xuan's words, Liu Xiaoli froze for a moment, not knowing why.

Concubine Liu Yi blinked. Although Chu Xuan said there was a way, she didn't know exactly what it was, so she looked at him curiously with her mother.

Chu Xuan put down his chopsticks, smiled slightly and said, "My next resource is probably a movie, Brother Chenglong's movie."

Concubine Liu Yi frowned slightly. She felt that there was something in Chu Xuan's words, but she didn't understand the specific meaning that Chu Xuan wanted to express.

However, Liu Xiaoli was startled suddenly, moved her eyes a few times, and said, "Gossip?"

Chu Xuan nodded with a smile, and said, "I heard it occasionally in the company, and I don't know who arranged it for me."

Concubine Liu Yi was thoughtful.

Liu Xiaoli understood.

Chu Xuan's agent is Wang Jinhua, and only Wang Jinhua can arrange resources for Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan didn't say clearly that it was because even though the two parties were very close, they were not in the same circle.

If you are not in the same circle, if you have news about good resources, can you just spread it out?

Obviously, no.

This is an unwritten rule.

After all, the pressure of competition in the industry is so great, there are more wolves and less meat.

If the news on some resources can be obtained in advance, it will naturally be able to seize the opportunity.

She understood what Chu Xuan meant, but she was still unclear about Chu Xuan's motive.

"What do you mean?" Liu Xiaoli seemed to be a little sober from the alcohol.

Chu Xuan pondered and smiled, and said: "As far as I know, in Brother Chenglong's movie called "New Police Story", there is a role of a policewoman who plays a very important role, which is equivalent to the heroine. I think Sissy is very Suitable for acting."

Concubine Liu Yi was startled, she finally understood what Chu Xuan wanted to express.

Little cop?

I want to play a policewoman?

Concubine Liu Yi's heart fluttered, and her sense of anticipation exploded for a moment.

The most important thing is that according to what Chu Xuan just said, Chu Xuan is also likely to star in this movie.

In this way, she will be able to join Chu Xuan in the same crew, which is what she has been looking forward to.

Now that this expectation has the possibility of becoming a reality, she is a little excited.

And Liu Xiaoli pondered for a while, and said: "If you can enter Chenglong's crew, it will be of great significance. You can get full growth in terms of qualifications and acting experience, but Chenglong's crew is not so easy to enter, and Qianqian's Acting..."

Concubine Liu Yi's heart sank and she was a little depressed, but Chu Xuan sitting next to her made her hopeful again.

Chu Xuan smiled, took a bite of food, and said, "The company that invested in this movie is Yinghuang Entertainment. As far as I know, Cai Zhuoyan should play the role of this little policewoman. Does this auntie know?"

Concubine Liu Yi said first: "I know, one of the older sisters in the group that sang "The Next Stop Diva."

Hearing this, Liu Xiaoli also nodded, expressing her understanding.

Seeing this, Chu Xuan smiled, and said: "First, a singer, or a singer in a group, can imagine how good his acting skills are. Second, Cai Zhuoyan is 20 years old, and Qianqian can't tell even when she puts on makeup. She is 16 years old, and there is no obvious difference in age between the two."

Liu Xiaoli slightly raised her forehead, which is true. Although Qianqian is not very old, her face shape does not look small under the condition of makeup and hairstyle.

Chu Xuan also said: "Thirdly, Yinghuang Entertainment wants to arrange Cai Zhuoyan to play this little policewoman. It is definitely not because of her acting skills, but because of her popularity. After all, this combination is very popular among young people, so Yinghuang Entertainment wants Relying on Cai Zhuoyan to attract a group of young people to watch the movie."

Liu Xiaoli thought about it, and it did make sense.

In Chenglong's previous movies, the actors who starred in them are all capable.

Now hearing what Chu Xuan said, Yinghuang Entertainment arranged for an idol to send an artist to Cheng Long's crew, which obviously valued the popularity of this artist.

Chu Xuan went on to say: "Fourth, after the broadcast of "Dragon Babu", Cici's popularity will rise in a straight line according to my prediction. By then, Cici, who has many fans in mainland China, will not be less popular than Cai Zhuoyan."

Liu Xiaoli was stunned for a moment, and Concubine Liu Yi also blinked.

"After "Dragon Ba Bu" is broadcast, will Sissy become popular?" Liu Xiaoli's eyes lit up with joy.

Chu Xuan was stunned for a moment, thought for a while and said, "Sister Hua mentioned it to me, I trust her judgment."

"What Wang Jinhua said? That's good." Liu Xiaoli was overjoyed.

Concubine Liu Yi pursed her lips and shook her head happily.

Chu Xuan hurriedly changed the topic, and said, "Fifth, the role of this little policewoman doesn't need to act in complicated scenes, and many of the scenes are about acting like a baby and pretending to be cute, but it is undeniable that Sissy's ability to play this role can break through to the limit. At that time, people had an established impression of her playing Wang Yuyan and Bai Xiuzhu as a quiet and beautiful girl. After all, Wang Yuyan and Bai Xiuzhu have never been coquettish and cute. This is like what I told you last time, let Sissy try more different ways of acting. , will only benefit her."

Suddenly, Liu Xiaoli's heart moved.

For her as a mother, she naturally hopes that her daughter's play path will be as wide as possible, and she has been looking for resources of different character images to do this as much as possible.

And after hearing Chu Xuan's words, the little policeman in Cheng Long's movie does not need too high acting skills, nor does he have any easy-to-injury fighting scenes, but it can also allow Sissy to experience different types of roles .

The most important thing is that since the role is suitable, if she can really enter Chenglong's crew, then for her daughter, her qualifications in the industry will be greatly improved in the future.

No matter how poor her vision was, she was still very clear about the difference between an international superstar crew and an ordinary crew.

"When will this movie start casting?" Liu Xiaoli asked proactively.

The corner of Chu Xuan's mouth curled up, and he said, "December and January next year, but if Auntie can contact Yinghuang in advance, there will be an extra guarantee."

"Just after the broadcast of "Dragon Babu", if it is really popular as you said that Sissy played Wang Yuyan, with this popularity, she is qualified to compete for this role." Liu Xiaoli pondered.

After saying that, Concubine Liu Yi was happy, and blinked at Chu Xuan.

"But..." Liu Xiaoli sighed again, and said, "It's not easy to deal with a big company like Yinghuang, and Auntie may not be able to satisfy them in terms of resources."

Concubine Liu Yi pursed her lips, her heart sank again.

Chu Xuan smiled faintly, and said: "It's not difficult to enter the Hong Kong circle, but it's difficult to enter the entertainment circle on Taiwan Island. I don't think it's difficult for Auntie."

"Treasure Island?" Liu Xiaoli was stunned for a moment.

She frowned as if thinking of something, looked at her daughter for a while, and then at Chu Xuan for a while, seeing that Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi had an inexplicably bad premonition.

Reminiscent of what Chu Xuan just said, Liu Xiaoli narrowed her eyes and said to her daughter: "A while ago I was going to give you resources to pick up two Treasure Island movies for you, but you murmured to me that you didn't want to act."

As she spoke, Liu Xiaoli looked at Chu Xuan with a half-smile.

Chu Xuan's heart skipped a beat, it's over.

"Chu Xuan, as soon as you came to the table today, you told your aunt some things. After drinking some wine, you started to talk about Chenglong's movie, and said that there is a role suitable for Sissy."

"So..." Liu Xiaoli lowered her head, took a bite of her food, raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Chu Xuan, are you here to be a lobbyist for Qianqian?"

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi looked at each other, and a funny smile flashed in each of their eyes.

Concubine Liu Yi bowed her head to eat, embarrassed to face her mother.

Chu Xuan coughed in embarrassment, raised his glass and said, "Auntie, let's have a drink."

Liu Xiaoli smiled, waved the chopsticks on her right hand, and said, "I don't want to drink. No wonder you brought a case of wine here today, so there is a purpose."

Concubine Liu Yi laughed while lowering her head to eat, but she didn't laugh out loud.

Chu Xuan also felt amused in his heart, and couldn't help laughing while rubbing his forehead.

"Auntie, there is a better resource here, Sissi is my good friend again, I..."

"Let's not talk about it."

Before the words finished, Liu Xiaoli interrupted Chu Xuan's words.

She glanced at Chu Xuan with a smile, stretched out her chopsticks and pointed to the wine dispenser at the table of Chu Xuan sitting opposite.

"Dry this wine, and Auntie will listen to you again."

Chu Xuan was startled.

Concubine Liu Yi glanced at the full glass of wine in Chu Xuan's wine dispenser, estimated to be 2 taels.

Concubine Liu Yi covered her mouth and laughed on the spot, feeling extremely amused.

Liu Xiaoli glanced at her daughter, then at Chu Xuan, and said with a smile, "You can, join forces to deal with me."

Hearing this, the laughter in Concubine Liu Yi's heart grew stronger.

Chu Xuan didn't say any more, picked up the wine dispenser and drank 2 taels of white wine in one gulp.

A pungent taste hit his stomach, Chu Xuan swallowed, and after he calmed down, he saw Concubine Liu Yi refill him with wine.

Chu Xuan smiled speechlessly, as if to say, "Is that what you did to your boyfriend?"

Concubine Liu Yi suppressed a smile and glanced at him, as if to say: "Your mother-in-law hasn't been dealt with yet, come on."

Chu Xuan breathed out, dissipated the slightly scorching heat in his stomach, and then said, "Auntie, since we have spoken, I will speak directly."

Liu Xiaoli smiled when she heard the words, and said: "You should have said it straight away, and you still have so many twists and turns to Auntie? You and Qianqian are best friends, even if you say something wrong, Auntie will not blame you."

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi smiled at each other.

"Auntie, let me ask you, which one is better, Brother Chenglong's movie or the two Treasure Island movies you want to spend resources on?"

"Of course it's Cheng Long's movie."

Chu Xuan nodded, and said, "That's right, wouldn't it be better for you to spend the resources you received from Baodao Movies on Brother Chenglong's movie?"

Liu Xiaoli nodded slightly, and said: "Auntie will consider it, but if the resources are not enough, after all, it is Chenglong's crew, and the price to be paid for joining the crew is not low."

Concubine Liu Yi ate food in a leisurely manner, only to hear Chu Xuan say: "Cai Zhuoyan is a singer, I want to ask if Auntie has any resources for singers?"

Concubine Liu Yi was taken aback.

Liu Xiaoli also paused, and said: "Next year, I plan to let Sissy release an album and play songs on TV programs. The entire channel has been arranged."

Chu Xuan patted the table, and said decisively: "Auntie gave up the channel resources to Cai Zhuoyan, plus Baodao's film resources to negotiate with Yinghuang, and then won this role!"

Concubine Liu Yi was startled.

Liu Xiaoli frowned.

Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli clinked glasses of wine and said, "Auntie, I don't know why you asked Sissy to post songs. Although I don't understand, from my understanding, Sissy's basic market is not stable now. You Letting her become a singer again is a lot of things."

As he said that, Chu Xuan said again: "It will take at least a few months for the series of arrangements from recording songs, releasing songs, publicizing, hitting charts, and appearing on shows... right? Auntie, you have the resources, and at this time, let Sissy Wouldn't it be better to make another TV series?"

Chu Xuan continued: "Other people release albums to make money, but I know that Auntie and your family are not short of money. So, from my understanding, you did this to allow Sissy to accumulate more popularity through multiple channels Bar?"

Liu Xiaoli took a deep look at Chu Xuan, sighed, and said, "Chu Xuan, you are really smart."

Chu Xuan didn't care about Liu Xiaoli's praise, but said again: "But Auntie, have you thought about a question?"

"What?" Liu Xiaoli was slightly curious.

"Last time I said, there is [spiritual energy] in Qianqian." Chu Xuan said.

Liu Xiaoli nodded slightly.

"Then, I know a little about posting songs on the charts and promoting them on shows. If Auntie, you let Sissy dress up in weird ways and wear heavy makeup to dance and sing, it will only make her give up the [spiritual energy] on her body." erase."

Liu Xiaoli's heart skipped a beat.

"Over time, when Sissy competes with other actresses in the future, she will lose one of her biggest advantages."

Concubine Liu Yi paused for a while while picking up the vegetables.

"Besides, I don't know why, auntie, you want to accept Baodao's movies. Baodao's movies can't be shown in the mainland, and Sissy's fans are concentrated in the mainland. If you arrange two Baodao movies for Sissy, when the time comes, Sissy Your fans will know nothing about it. Your behavior like this gives me the feeling that you are against Sissi's fans."

For a moment, Liu Xiaoli was upset.

Chu Xuan's words were like a needle stabbing into her heart.

Is the path I carefully arranged for my daughter wrong?

Liu Xiaoli was silent, and the reason for her silence was because she thought what Chu Xuan said made sense.

And precisely because what Chu Xuan said made sense, she had deep doubts in her heart.

——My vision is not as good as that of a college student?

Moreover, this college student is also Sissy's friend.

Liu Xiaoli suddenly felt bitter in her heart, and the bitterness was mixed with a lot of irritability.

Just drank wine with Chu Xuan for an hour, from Chu Xuan's thoughts on her daughter's movie, to denying the singer's opinion, and finally to denying the arrangement of the Baodao movie, Chu Xuan seemed to be breaking her heart step by step. Things that are settled.

Chu Xuan seemed to be telling her——Auntie, the way you arranged for Qianqian was completely wrong.

Concubine Liu Yi lowered her head slightly, and stopped eating.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at her mother with complicated expressions, and then at Chu Xuan who suddenly became serious and serious.

She found that she couldn't speak.

However, she could feel her mother's pain, as well as Chu Xuan's concern and love for her.

She was at the center of the discussion between the two of them, so she couldn't do anything about it.

At this time, Liu Xiaoli recovered from the silence, raised a smile, and said, "Come, Chu Xuan, drink."

Chu Xuan picked up the small wine glass, and it could be seen that what Liu Xiaoli was holding was a wine dispenser.

"Dry."

Chu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and looked at Liu Xiaoli's face that seemed to be gradually relieved. He no longer hesitated, picked up the wine dispenser and drank 2 taels of white wine with Liu Xiaoli.

As Concubine Liu Yi said, Liu Xiaoli's baijiu capacity is not high, drinking about 8 taels is enough.

Now that Lu Xiaoli had drunk liquor, there was obvious drunkenness and wandering in Liu Xiaoli's eyes.

Liu Xiaoli put down the wine glass, and she breathed heavily after drinking too much wine.

She put her hands on the dining table, put her chin on the back of her hands, and said, "Chu Xuan, you are really sensible, and Auntie really likes to communicate with you about Qianqian."

Chu Xuan was dumbfounded.

Concubine Liu Yi covered her mouth and smiled, mom's wine is in place, and she is about to start feeling emotional.

She knew her mother as well as her mother knew her.

"Chu Xuan, let me tell you, when Sissi was 13 years old, she was invited by her godfather to return to China. Before her debut, her godfather arranged for her to be an endorsement. Does Jingfei Apartment know?"

Chu Xuan nodded.

"At that time, the apartment was full of Sissi's big posters. After a while, a crew decided to let Sissy participate in a play because of Sissy's image."

Chu Xuan said: "The Family of Gold Fans."

Liu Xiaoli nodded slightly, and said: "Sissy has a dream of being a star. Since the director and producer valued it and spent some resources, I asked Sissy to try acting in a play. Then the director and producer gave me It is said that Sissy is born to be a star, as long as she is cultivated well, few people will take away her aura in the future."

Chu Xuan didn't speak, and so did Concubine Liu Yi, and the two just quietly listened to Liu Xiaoli's story.

Liu Xiaoli spread her hands on the table, reached out and patted the dining table, and said, "I heard that, since there are directors and producers who are so optimistic about Sissi, they are still very sure that after "The Family of Gold Fans" airs, Sissi will Sisy will be popular, I thought about it at the time, and Sissy is also very determined to develop in China. So I decided to take Sissy to the United States to study and study in the United States before the broadcast of "The Family of Gold Fans", and then take the Beijing Film Academy."

Chu Xuan suddenly realized that he understood.

Liu Xiaoli stroked her hair and said, "Not only Sissi's family, but also the director and producer at that time suggested that I take advantage of the situation to pursue and let Sissy develop rapidly by taking advantage of this popularity. There are also Sissy's godfather and Zhang Jizhong My thoughts on Sissi are that the main purpose of being in Beijing Film Academy is to get a diploma. Since I want to become popular quickly, I can’t take care of studying. After I get a diploma in Beijing Film Academy, I will go to the United States Learn to study and hone your acting skills."

Chu Xuan paused, thought for a while, and said, "I understand."

Liu Xiaoli was stunned, and Concubine Liu Yi looked at Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows and said: "Based on this purpose, Auntie, you were not in the industry before, nor did you have the professional ability of an agent, so in fact, you didn't make a complete plan for Qianqian at all. You only want to be here In the past four years, whether it’s TV series, movies, magazines or songs, as long as you think the resources that can increase Cici’s popularity, you will accept them no matter good or bad. You try your best to increase Cici’s popularity, even after four years Xi went to the United States to study, as long as this popularity is still there, it will be decided when Xi Qian finishes her studies and comes back to see the situation, is that so?"

"Drink!" Liu Xiaoli said suddenly, picking up the wine glass.

She looked relieved, as if someone finally understood her arrangement and thoughts for her daughter.

This kind of fellowship feeling made her very comfortable, and at the same time, she gave Chu Xuan a few more high-level glances.

Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli clinked glasses and put them down.

"Chu Xuan, do you know why I didn't sign the company for Sissi?"

Liu Xiaoli drank too much, and wanted to say a lot of things in her heart for a while, perhaps because she didn't have any grudges in her heart when facing Chu Xuan, a junior who was very familiar with her.

However, Chu Xuan waved his hand. After drinking nearly seven taels of liquor, his eyes were also slightly drunk, and he said, "I didn't know before, but now I know."

"Really?" Liu Xiaoli smiled drunkenly.

Concubine Liu Yi also turned her head to look at Chu Xuan, also a little curious.

Chu Xuan nodded, and said with a smile: "A mother's love is great, so your love for Qianqian is extreme. You are afraid of something happening to Qianqian, so you want to keep Qianqian under your nose all the time. Based on this mentality , Auntie, you are very wary of other people, and because the water in the circle is very muddy, so Auntie, you are very wary of entertainment companies. In other words, you don’t trust anyone except Sissy. Maternal love is also selfish, this sentence It is well reflected in you, Auntie."

Chu Xuan smiled again, and said: "Because the entertainment company can't serve Sissi wholeheartedly, and the agent can't serve Sissi wholeheartedly, but you, a mother, can give up everything and serve Sissi wholeheartedly. Therefore, Comparing the two, there is naturally a gap in your heart, so Auntie, you will naturally not sign Sissi to an entertainment company or agent. In your heart, instead of letting Sissy go to other places to be wronged, it is better to live in front of yourself pet."

"Drink!" Liu Xiaoli was already drunk, she picked up the wine dispenser and drank it down regardless of whether Chu Xuan drank it or not.

Chu Xuan was stunned, and just wanted to dissuade him, but swallowed the words again.

Because, he saw tears streaming from the corners of Liu Xiaoli's eyes.

Chu Xuan was silent, picked up the wine dispenser and drank it all in one gulp.

Meanwhile, Concubine Liu Yi couldn't sit still anymore. Seeing her mother rubbing her eyes, obviously in tears, she immediately got up and walked around the dining table to her mother's side.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Concubine Liu Yi wrinkled her nose.

Liu Xiaoli put her hands on the dining table, covered her face with her palms, her head was lowered, and she looked completely drunk.

Her lips that were not covered by her hands were slightly divided, and her tone was a little erratic: "Sissy, there is no entertainment company and agent, and some resources are not available to you. Being managed by others, my mother is very selfish, do you think it is wrong for my mother to do this for you?"

Hearing this, Concubine Liu Yi burst into tears in no time, shook her mother's body and said, "No! Mom, what are you thinking! Don't think too much, okay, you are the best to me, you have done nothing wrong!"

Liu Xiaoli covered her face, Chu Xuan couldn't see her expression, only heard her breathing heavily, so he said: "Put your mother into the room to sleep."

Hearing Chu Xuan's words, Concubine Liu Yi nodded, reached out to wipe away her tears, then propped her mother up with difficulty, and walked to the room.
