Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 560: The pride of the domestic entertainment industry? Nothing special!
The Chen family’s mansion is located on the Peak, which is one of the best locations in Hong Kong that can be counted on one’s fingers. The average price per square meter is over one million Hong Kong dollars.

There is a courtyard in front and a garden in the back...and of course a swimming pool is also essential.

In Hong Kong, if a house doesn’t have a private swimming pool, it would be embarrassing to call it a luxury house.

The scenery here is relatively much better. Sitting in the garden and overlooking the panoramic view of the Hong Kong River, you will suddenly feel like you are looking down on the world.

In an instant he understood why the houses in this place were so expensive. Perhaps it was because of the good environment and feng shui, but the sense of superiority brought by being high above was definitely one of them.

"Xiao Zhou, please sit down." David Chen was wearing a pink shirt and suit pants, looking quite fashionable.

If someone in his fifties or sixties dares to dress like this, he is either crazy or really confident. David Chen is the latter.

Even at this age, he still maintains a very good figure, with tones and muscles, not skinny or bloated, and in better shape than many young handsome guys.

Although his face is covered with wrinkles, the sharp lines between his eyebrows and eyes can still vaguely show his former charm. After all, he has good genes to give birth to a handsome boy like Chen Ailun.

"Just tell the nanny what you want to eat or drink." David Chen held a cigar in his mouth and said with a smile, "You and Allen are good friends, just treat this place as your own home."

Zhou Hao smiled and said a few polite words, but he didn't take it seriously.

"You didn't have insomnia last night, did you?" David Chen teased subtly.

"Not really." Zhou Hao smiled. "I've often been ignored in the mainland, so I'm used to it."

"Yeah, I heard about it." David Chen nodded. "The environment in the mainland... is indeed a bit abnormal. It's normal for a normal person like you to be treated as an outlier."

"But no matter what, I still want to apologize to you in person. After all, I was the one who brought you here, but in the end I have to go back empty-handed."

"It's not like you have nothing." Zhou Hao also joked, "Don't you have a boyfriend now?"

David Chen was stunned for two seconds, then burst into laughter.

Obviously, this is a mockery of Chen Ailun and his "scandal".

And from the way he spoke, he had probably guessed that it was probably David Chen who was behind these rumors.

This kid is really smart!
The reason why he staged such a drama in the first place was actually very direct - it was just to take advantage of Zhou Hao's popularity.

This guy may not be very successful in Hong Kong, but he is awesome in the domestic entertainment circle!

And now Chen Ailun’s career focus has already shifted to the mainland market...If we can get a little popularity and attention from him, this will definitely be the simplest and crudest source of traffic!

This is indeed the case. Since the “scandal” began to ferment, Chen Ailun’s Weibo fans have skyrocketed to nearly three million...and these are all real fans!

There may be some black fans with impure motives, but so what?

Anyway, the goal has been achieved!
Wait a couple of days and bring up "Descendants of the Dragon" again, emphasizing the connection between this song and Zhou Hao...won't that bring the heat back?

These things are left over from when he was a big name in the entertainment industry. They are very useful!

"Xiao Zhou, you are a smart man, I won't beat around the bush with you." David Chen handed the remaining half of the cigar to the nanny and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat. "I came to you today just to ask you one thing - are you interested in cooperating with me to set up an entertainment company?"

What?
Zhou Hao was stunned. It was too sudden and he was completely unprepared.

"You know, Allen's career focus has begun to move inland, but his roots are still here. His bloodline is not pure."

David Chen sighed, "The Hong Kong industry is not as good as it used to be. Hong Kong artists not only do not see any status enhancement effects in the mainland market, but will be jointly excluded... It's actually really difficult."

"If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have stopped him from going north in the past few years. This kid is confused and doesn't know what's going on, but I know it!" "If it weren't for your song 'Descendants of the Dragon' that helped pave the way, I guess he would still be stuck in the Hong Kong circle now. But even so, he only has this one song 'Descendants of the Dragon'. Other than that, no one is willing to give him resources."

Zhou Hao nodded. This was not surprising.

The number of artists in the domestic entertainment industry is already seriously overflowing, so where is the food to be shared with others?

Not to mention other companies, even in our own Jinghong Studio, some people have already started to be left out.

The negative consequences of mass-producing idol stars on assembly lines are simply unavoidable.

"So I plan to set up a company in the mainland and let Allen officially settle in the mainland for development. What do you think?" David Chen asked with dazed eyes.

"I dare not express my opinion on this matter." Zhou Hao spread his hands and said, "It's up to you to decide."

David Chen laughed, "Then let me ask you another question. Are you interested in working together? You have a ready-made work team and content resources, but I don't have anything else but money."

"In addition, I have enough personal connections and channel resources. These are invisible assets that are difficult to estimate with money. If we can reach a cooperation, it will be a perfect complementary relationship."

Zhou Hao didn't say anything, but to be honest, he was a little moved.

Because Zhang Hong had actually mentioned this matter long before coming to Hong Kong. The scale of Jinghong is getting bigger and bigger, and the studio's staffing has become an obvious constraint.

If you want to develop further, evolving and establishing a company is the only way forward.

The reason why he had temporarily put this issue aside was because he was too busy recently and had no time to think about it.

But now, David Chen's olive branch has put the matter in front of him again.

As he said, cooperation between the two companies can indeed complement each other's resources, but it will also bring a series of hidden worries and concerns.

The question of who has the final say in this company alone is enough to give people a headache.

David Chen seemed to see through his thoughts and added with a smile: "Don't worry, Allen and I only want 30% of the shares, and you can handle the rest by yourselves."

"You have the final say in the daily operations of the company. I will not interfere with any other operations of the company other than Allen's business."

When these words came out, Zhou Hao was a little bit unconvinced.

Is there such a good thing?

"Don't disbelieve me." David Chen sighed, "After all, I'm too old to bother with this anymore... I'm just counting on him to have some success, what else do I want?"

What he said made sense, but Zhou Hao was not stupid enough to make a decision immediately.

"No hurry, take your time to think about it." David Chen also said, "Anyway, this matter is not that urgent. It won't be too late to reply to me after you have thought it through."

…………

After having a sumptuous meal at Chen’s house, Zhou Hao just returned to the hotel and immediately received a call from Zhou Yuanyuan.

"Brother, take a look at what I sent you."

Zhou Hao opened Fetion and saw a freshly published news article.

"The pride of the domestic entertainment industry? Nothing more than that!"
