Bright Star Road [Entertainment]

After finishing the recording of "Golden Nightclub", it was already past five in the afternoon, and everyone finally finished all today's announcements.Zhou Xiao did not choose to return to the company with other members, but drove to another place alone.For Zhou Xiao's current semi-independent state, whether it is a member, a manager, or a firm, they have all taken acquiescing and laissez-faire attitudes.Since the Victory Youth Team ended their self-sustainment, Zhou Xiao's contract has undergone major changes.

Although the brokerage contracts of the Victory Youth Team were assigned to Smart Dream Production Company, Zhou Xiao signed a separate economic contract.Zhou Xiao was not the only one in the Victory Youth Group to set foot in the film and television industry. Before the self-sustainment, several favored members participated in the filming of idol dramas and period dramas, but in the end it was Zhou Xiao who became the first actor in a movie .

What's important is that the movie in which Zhou Xiao plays the leading role is now very popular, and Zhou Xiao has also turned from a half-red artist to a red-hot niche again.It can be said that, as the most experienced music program in China, "Golden Nightclub" was able to record a special session for the Shengli Youth Group because of Zhou Xiao's face.Don't you see, in the interview session, the host almost put two-thirds of the topic on Zhou Xiao?And if you look at the broadcast screen at the end, you will find that Zhou Xiao's close-up shots account for at least half of all the close-up shots.

Tian Jing and Li Nian, as vice-captains and aces, actually complained in private, but they were frightened by the manager's words.

"Do you still think that this is the past? Without Zhou Xiao's pull, the Shengli Youth Team would have been regarded as an outcast by the office! Now that you can still have jobs, you should be grateful for your captain's dedication! Also, Zhou Xiao Now it is second only to APEX in Smart Dream Company. If there is any conflict between you, which side do you think General Manager Fan Zhi will stand on?"

Zhou Xiao naturally didn't know what his manager was telling his members. He was instructing his driver to drive to a private restaurant for dinner.This is a vegetarian restaurant, and it still adopts a membership system and a reservation system, which means that rich foodies like Li Wei can only book a table.Because of many troubles recently, Li Wei got a little angry. Under the doctor's suggestion, Li Wei decided to become a vegetarian for a while.I usually only eat vegetable and fruit salads in the company, but I got really tired of eating, so I came to this vegetarian restaurant called "Zen" on the recommendation of a friend.

As a result, after eating, Li Wei fell in love with this place. Thanks to Li Wei's thick skin and money, Li Wei finally got the membership status of this vegetarian restaurant and the qualification to reserve seats.

The predecessor of Zen Vegetarian Restaurant was a mansion of a local family a hundred years ago. After renovation, it became a restaurant with six suites and a hall.There are eight seats in the hall, suitable for four people to dine, and reservations are open on the Internet that morning; while suites require members to make reservations at least one day in advance.Like all private restaurants, Zen does not accept orders. It will serve appropriate dishes according to the number of guests, gender and age composition.

Ever since Li Wei fell in love with this place, he would bring his friends here for dinner from time to time, so that Li Wei's circle of friends was automatically divided into a circle of close friends and a circle of ordinary friends. The difference is whether Li Wei brought you here for dinner.

"The private kitchen you found is really good." Zhou Xiao found Li Wei's box on the third floor.

The boxes on the third floor are usually reserved by Li Wei, because not only can you have a panoramic view of the garden here, but you can also overlook the East China Sea and Wanguo Garden a little far away.What's more, there is only one box on the third floor, so the privacy will be better.One of the reasons for the popularity of private kitchen restaurants is their good privacy. For celebrities or stars, this is undoubtedly a place where you can have a good meal and meet friends.

Since Zhou Xiao arrived in a hurry, there was no food in the kitchen, so only a pot of jasmine slices was exuding the fragrance.The box on the third floor was remodeled from an attic, so the area is much smaller than other boxes, and it is probably suitable for a few friends to have a drink.

"You are really a capitalist now, I just finished filming "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", and the movie has only been released for two weeks, and you forced me to join the team to shoot the next one."

"There's no way, Huaxia has a strong habit of following suit." Li Wei sighed.

Although the Huaxia Kingdom on the Earth and Star plane is very strict about copyright, following the trend of the subject matter is not considered copyright infringement.As far as Li Wei knew, the film companies big and small in Huaxia Country had listed the theme of pure love as the focus of their recent films, so that the supply of Xiaosheng Xiaodan in various brokerage companies was in short supply.Li Wei can estimate that during the Valentine's Day schedule, there will definitely be more than a dozen pure love themes colliding.That's why Li Wei forced Chen Shanyu to start working as soon as possible to shoot "My Girlhood".At least the pure love movie produced by Qilin Films still has a good reputation, so I don't worry about being implicated by pig teammates.

However, Li Wei also guessed that in the next one or two years, the theme of pure love will probably be smashed by everyone again.Fortunately, "To Our Dying Youth" is not a very strict pure love movie, but it will not be implicated.

"Besides, isn't your Yushanfang very short of money? So make more movies and accept a few commercials. Otherwise, you can make another price and I will buy shares in your company. I am very optimistic about it. For the future development of the catering industry, give me a chance!"

Zhou Xiao's face darkened, and he refused coldly: "No! This is my company, and my shares have been diluted to the point where I'm on the verge of holding shares. Also, didn't you complain that you have no money? Why do you suddenly have money? Invest in my company?"

"Hey, I don't have money for others, but I'm sure I have money for you. Also, what's yours is mine, why should we divide it so clearly?" Li Wei replied rudely, "I just have a little bit of cash reserves. Not enough, it’s pressing the red line now. But if it’s really not possible, whether it’s financing or borrowing, there will definitely be a large group of people waving checks and queuing outside my house. I’m going to arrange the angel round of Fengyun Esports after the Chinese New Year Financing, Meixiu Live and Hulu.com’s A-round financing, how much do you think I can raise? With this money, it’s enough for me to buy your Yushanfang directly. You can work for me in the future, and I want you to warm the bed Just warm the bed, and if you want you to bathe me, bathe me. If you have something to do, let you do it, and if you have nothing to do, it’s a beautiful day."

"You're going too far!" Zhou Xiao said with a dark face, "Don't think I don't know that you are busy building your theater chain. You need money to buy a property? Do you need money to renovate a theater? And your employees and Does the management want money too? Tsk tsk, I’m afraid you don’t have enough funds to fill in. Don’t ask me to come to you then, or I’ll ask you to cook, wash, wash your back and warm your bed.”

"It doesn't need to be when I'm short of money. I can do it now." Li Wei showed a wretched smile, "My massage is very comfortable. You experienced it when you recorded "The Extremely Fast". Do you have backache and leg pain recently? Cramp? Do you want me to fuck?"

"I think you are the kind of massage therapist who provides pornographic services?" Zhou Xiao said with a look of disgust.

"I'm a serious person!" Li Wei responded solemnly, "But if you really need it, I can satisfy you."

Zhou Xiao was completely defeated by Li Wei's poor mouth. Fortunately, the waiter had already started serving the food at this time, so Zhou Xiao could finally change the topic to the food.

While chatting, Zhou Xiao suddenly said, "I heard that you plan to start a comic magazine? My brother's high school classmate is the editor-in-chief of the comic group of the "Donghai Youth" magazine. , I’m leaving my job and I’m at home. If you’re interested, I’ll ask my brother to ask for you, and he and his subordinates can come and help you.”

Hearing what Zhou Xiao said, Li Wei also became interested, "Tell me, why did my brother's classmate leave his job?"

Zhou Xiao didn't notice the "our brother" in Li Wei's words, but continued: "When he came to visit my brother last time, I heard him talk about it. "Donghai Youth", "Yanjing Comics Weekly" and "My Brother" "Treasure Island Comic" is currently the three major comic magazines in China. The comics of "Treasure Island Comic" are mainly in cooperation with Dongying, so it ranks No.1 among similar magazines in China; Relying on female readers also has good sales.

Under the attack of these two magazines, "Donghai Youth" has not had a good life in recent years.So "Donghai Youth" has been in transformation. Since the introduction of the game department a few years ago, the content of the magazine is about [-]% of the comprehensive content and game content, and the comic content has been greatly reduced.Haven't youth novels become popular recently?So "Donghai Boy" plans to open a literature department. On the one hand, it will cooperate with domestic youth novel writers, and on the other hand, it will cooperate with light novel publishing houses in Dongying and Korea to introduce works.

As a result, even though the magazine announced an increase in the number of pages, the proportion of the manga department dropped to only 15%.This made the people in the manga department very dissatisfied, so there was a resignation incident.I heard from my brother that his classmates had contributed to manga magazines since they were in middle school.I have been a manga editor for five or six years after graduating from university, and I am very familiar with the domestic manga circle.If you're interested, I'll give you a call. "

"Well, you can ask me the phone number." Li Wei became interested in this person.

Although Li Wei has a lot of ideas for comics and comic magazines in his mind, he needs professional talents to help him realize them.

Li Wei and Zhou Xiao chatted while enjoying the food here.While the two were eating, Zhou Xiao suddenly received a WeChat message.Since WeChat started its public beta, its convenience has swept mobile phone users across China and even Asia.WeChat now has three overseas versions in Korean, Japanese and English, with around 5000 million users worldwide.Li Wei believes that before the end of this year, there is no problem with breaking the number of users to [-] million.Since Zhou Xiao used WeChat, he has liked this software very much, and has been recommending his friends to use it.

"The old man had a stroke!" Zhou Xiao said incredulously, "Sister Fan Zhi just sent me a WeChat message. Now that Smart's top management has all rushed to Donghai Union Hospital, I believe the media will receive the news soon. My God! If the old man falls at this time, who will take over the firm? After all, grandma is the second shareholder, once the old man falls, no one on the board of directors can hold her down."

"It's really not the time!" Li Wei also sighed.

Li Wei knew that Fan Zhi had been preparing with both hands. If the old man finally chose a professional manager to manage the company, then Sister Fan Zhi would take over, and Sister Fan Zhi would completely return to the office.But if the old man still insists that the family company is run by family members, then the conflict between Fan Zhijie and Teng Jingli will inevitably intensify.

At that time, the artists from Smart Dream Company will have to stand in line.Either betray his benefactor, or be hidden forever, no matter which choice he chooses, it will not be a good result.
