Huayu 1992, my entertainment era

"Don't worry too much about the outside world's opinions. We chose you not because you are from Ziheng Company.

But you do have the ability, and you should take these external comments as motivation to motivate yourself.

Use your works and your future to tell them that your selection into "Era-Landmark" is based on your real ability.

......"

Reports that questioned how Jay Chou could become a member of "Era-shaking" not only made ordinary audiences hostile to Jay Chou.

It also made Jay Chou himself fall into a deep state of doubt.

Zhou Ziheng is not very good at comforting people.

It just so happens that Leslie Cheung likes to do this kind of thing.

His favorite thing is to help and promote new people.

A number of new generation celebrities including Dicky Cheung, Louis Koo, and Leo Ku have all received his help.

It was because of him that Leo Ku successfully switched from being a reporter to becoming a singer.

Therefore, the task of comforting Jay Chou fell on Leslie Cheung.

Leslie Cheung really has his way. After just a few words, Jay Chou's spirit and spirit suddenly changed. He put in a lot of effort during rehearsal, as if he wanted to prove himself.

What made Zhou Ziheng speechless was that this guy kept staring at him while they were rehearsing a dance.

He was standing in the front, and every time I turned around, I could feel his gaze on me, but when he turned around, he quickly looked away.

"What's going on? What did you tell him? He's acting too abnormal!"

After finishing the dance practice, Zhou Ziheng immediately found Leslie Cheung.

Although he did not discriminate against Leslie Cheung's love.

But he didn't want such a promising future seedling to be led astray by Leslie Cheung.

"I told him that when you first debuted, you were actually just like him. You suffered a lot of ridicule from the media. No one was optimistic about you at the time and they all thought you wouldn't be able to succeed."

Leslie Cheung explained with a smile.

Hearing this, Zhou Ziheng was stunned.

How come he doesn't remember any reporter mocking him?

It seems like after he released his album "Wandering Song", the entire Guangdong music scene was praising him!

Even after he came to Hong Kong and Taiwan, the media there reported that he had made money during his term, but it seemed that no one questioned his ability.

In a word, he seemed to have a smooth and prosperous life, with some ups and downs, but it didn't seem to be to the extent that Leslie Cheung said.

"I lied to him! Didn't you see that he was absent-minded all day because of those newspapers?

If this continues, I'll be thankful if I don't get scolded for performing well at the concert, for example.

Anyway, we won’t be going back to the mainland in the short term, and he doesn’t know much about mainland affairs.

Trick him and cheer him up."

Leslie Cheung saw Zhou Ziheng's confusion and explained immediately.

Zhou Ziheng was silent for a moment, "Then he wouldn't keep staring at me!"

"Uh..." A trace of embarrassment flashed across Zhang Guorong's face. "I told him that it's not easy to succeed. A talented person like you kissed a 200-pound fat man in a nightclub for a few dozen bucks before you became successful.

He doesn't have your talent, so he should persist and forget about the criticism from the outside world."

"Boss, please don't do this! How can you tell such a lie?"

Hearing this, Zhou Ziheng couldn't help but feel a little angry.

In fact, he was not furious because Leslie Cheung lied.

But something similar has actually happened to me.

When I first joined the Friendship Salon, I was penniless and actually kissed people in order to make money.

Moreover, it was not just a few dozen dollars, but less than twenty dollars.

There’s no way, money was very expensive in 1992.

I had just arrived in Guangzhou, was unfamiliar with the place, and had no money on me, so this was the only way I could do if I wanted to make more money.

Zhou Ziheng didn't expect that he would never mention something to anyone.

One day, it would actually be revealed by Leslie Cheung in the form of deceiving others.

Sometimes, anger comes out of shame. Zhou Ziheng is angry now tonight.

"I didn't expect you to be such a brother!"

Zhou Ziheng held it in for a long time and then complained.

"Uh, it's my fault!" Leslie Cheung looked embarrassed.

……

The outside world was in turmoil, and all kinds of epoch-making news were flying around.

Today, Leslie Cheung and Zhou Ziheng were photographed by reporters while chatting about the group.

Tomorrow, a senior executive of PolyGram said that the copyright of Leon Lai's songs is in their hands, and Leon Lai cannot sing with Zhou Ziheng and others at the concert.

A few days later, another unknown artist who was unhappy with Zhou Ziheng revealed in the media that this was a sensational team formation.

The convergence of various news has made [Era-changing] the hottest news this fall.

As for the various comments from the outside world, Zhou Ziheng and others ignored them and focused on planning the epoch-making concert.

The four of us are appearing as a group, so the performance will definitely not be like the previous concerts where you sing your songs and I sing your songs.

The four of them invited a professional choreographer to choreograph some dances for them.

At the same time, the four of them also had a discussion about the song.

The repertoire sung at the concert is limited.

What songs will be sung in the first concert, and will they be sung solo or with four people?

Or how to distribute the lyrics when four people sing together.

These problems need to be solved.

However, while the four were busy preparing, the company behind them was also not idle.

On November 20th, tickets for the first concert of the group [Era-defining] in Hong Kong officially went on sale.

Originally, Zhou Ziheng and others expected that the concert tickets would take at least a week to sell out.

Because the fastest record for Zhou Ziheng’s concert tickets in Hong Kong sold out was only nine days.

What they didn't expect was that all 45,000 tickets for the Hong Kong station were sold out in just four days.

It is worth mentioning here that the Hong Kong stop of this epoch-making concert will not be held in Hung Hom.

For Zhou Ziheng and his three friends, the Hung Hom Stadium was too small. Among them, any one of Zhou Ziheng, Leslie Cheung and Leon Lai could fill the Hung Hom Stadium with a concert.

Therefore, in order to sell more tickets, the concert venue was chosen as the Hong Kong Stadium.

This is the address of Alan Tam’s Pure Gold Concert in 94.

At that time, Alan Tam's concert held here became a milestone in the history of Hong Kong concerts.

Now, the goal of Zhou Ziheng and others is to break him.

And this is not extravagant.

If it was before 97, no one would be able to hold a concert in this place.

After all, Alan Tam’s concert caused a lot of trouble back then.

But now it’s different, Hong Kong has returned.

Zhou Ziheng had a lot of connections, and after he personally made the necessary contacts, the authorities immediately approved them to hold a concert here.

Then we started selling tickets.

More than 40,000 tickets were sold out in just four days, which is definitely a miracle.

Of course, not all of these tickets were bought by audiences from Hong Kong.

There were also many spectators from other places.

Especially fans of Leslie Cheung.

As we all know, fans of Leslie Cheung and fans of Alan Tam are the most incompatible.

Alan Tam was so successful in 94 that Leslie Cheung's fans were really envious.

Therefore, when they heard that Leslie Cheung was also going to hold a concert at the Hong Kong Stadium, a large number of his fans from all over the Chinese-speaking world rushed to Hong Kong.
