Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 311 The big boss appears and makes his final appearance

"Teacher He, long time no see."

After giving He Jiong a big hug, Lin Li said enthusiastically.

"You kid, you know we haven't seen each other for a long time!"

"I thought that our Director Lin looked down on me as a small host and didn't want to pay attention to me."

"You little brat, do you remember how many times you rejected my invitation?"

He Jiong clenched his fist and punched Lin Li lightly on the chest, with a happy smile on his face that showed few signs of aging.

"So I'm here now. Teacher He, you know how busy I am right now. I left behind a crew of several hundred people to rush here!"

Lin Li looked at him with a smile, not forgetting to show off his hard work.

"I know, I know. Our Director Lin is really giving me face."

He Jiong was filled with emotion as he looked at Lin Li in front of him. Although he had never doubted that Lin Li would be successful after entering the entertainment industry, he had not expected that Lin Li's rise would be so rapid.

But now was not the time to express emotion, he collected his thoughts, supported Lin Li's back and led him to a smiling middle-aged man beside him.

He Jiong was about to speak up to help Lin Li introduce him, but he saw him take the initiative to extend his hand to the middle-aged man and bow slightly with a decent smile on his face.

"Hello, Director Zhang, this is Lin Li."

The middle-aged man was wearing a neat grey suit and a pair of black-framed glasses. He looked to be around 40 or 50 years old, with short black hair and appeared to be in very good spirits.

"I just took office. Teacher Nanxun, do you know me?"

The middle-aged man stared at Lin Li in front of him with great interest and grabbed his hand.

"I just happened to be paying attention to it. I believe that under the leadership of Director Zhang, Xiangnan TV will definitely develop better."

"Also, just call me Ali, otherwise it would be too much for me."

Both of them stopped, and Lin Li spoke respectfully with a calm expression.

Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, Lin Li felt a little emotional.

This person is Zhang Huali, who has just taken over as the director of Xiangnan TV. He is definitely a top figure.

Since launching “Happy Camp” in 96, Xiangnan Satellite TV has been firmly sitting on the throne of the number one provincial satellite TV station for 23 years.

Over the past two decades, Xiangnan TV has produced too many excellent variety shows, too many excellent TV dramas and documentaries, which have influenced generations of people.

What’s even more amazing is that the three directors who led Shonan TV to its rise and peak all came from the same place, Wuling.

Since 18, Zhang Huali has served as general manager and chairman of Xiangnan Radio, Film and Television Group Co., Ltd. and chairman of Mango Super Media Co., Ltd.

He was appointed at a time of crisis. Under the new media situation, the development of traditional media was becoming increasingly slow. Later, he actively embraced media convergence, laid out a pattern of integrated development of TV and the Internet, and made Mango TV the first profitable video website in the country.

Since Zhang Huali took charge of Xiangnan TV, various content sections of Xiangnan TV, such as variety shows, evening parties, and theaters, have exploded, and a large number of popular variety shows such as "I Am a Singer", "Where Are We Going, Dad", "Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves", and "Brothers Who Make Waves" have been born.

At the same time, the slogan of Happy China was changed to Youthful China.

It can be said that under his leadership, Shonan TV has achieved outstanding results in the face of competition from new media.

"Okay, then I'll call you Ali, just like Teacher He."

"Speaking of which, Ali's first step into the industry was through our Shonan program. We have a lot of destiny together, and we should continue to work together."

Zhang Huali looked at Lin Li in front of him with admiration and said with a smile.

"It's natural that Director Zhang has spoken. I will actively promote the cooperation between Nanxun Culture and our Xiangnan TV Station. I also hope that Director Zhang can open the door and give support."

Lin Li had no objection and stated his position directly.

"Don't worry, Ali. Nanxun Culture will definitely be our most important partner in Xiangnan."

"Thank you, Director Zhang."

"Of course I should. And I'll have to trouble you for today's finale, Ali."

"Director Zhang, you are so polite. It is my honor."

"Haha, after all, I'm just borrowing your popularity!"

"I……"

The two of them chatted with each other, and Teacher He would interrupt from time to time to add support, and the overall communication atmosphere was very harmonious.

The three girls behind Lin Li were all a little reserved, with their hands in front of them, smiling, and didn't dare to say anything.

They also didn't expect that this middle-aged man was actually the new director of Shonan TV, and he even took the initiative to come and talk to Lin Li.

For a moment, the three girls looked at Lin Li with eyes full of stars and admiration.

Although they had always known that Lin Li was outstanding, it was only when they experienced him in person that they truly felt the reality.

They just felt that Lin Li, who was chatting with Director Zhang at this moment, seemed to have become much taller, and every move he made was full of charm and captivating!
"By the way, Director Zhang, these are my friends, actress Zhao Ruth, idol singers Cheng Xiao and Zhou Jieqiong."

"If we have any suitable projects in the future, we can also give them some opportunities to practice."

Lin Li glanced at the three girls behind him, and then he turned aside to introduce them to Zhang Huali.

Shonan has quite a lot of variety shows, including self-produced dramas, which are very suitable for the new generation like them to show their faces.

"Hello, Director Zhang!"

Upon seeing this, Zhao Lusi and the others hurriedly stepped forward and greeted Zhang Huali in unison.

"Hello, since they are recommended by Ali, they must be good artists."

"Teacher He, please take care of us in the future. If there are any suitable programs, please invite more of us to come and play. I will also let the film and television department know." "Just looking at their appearance and temperament, there are still many suitable roles for our self-made dramas."

Zhang Huali looked at Zhao Lusi and others in front of him and said with a smile.

At the same time, he did not forget to look at He Jiong, asking him to pay attention to whether there is anything suitable in the variety show field.

"Okay, Master. I'll keep an eye on it."

He Jiong agreed with a smile.

"Thank you, Director Zhang, and thank you, Teacher He."

Zhao Lusi and others bowed repeatedly to express their gratitude, feeling happy but a little flustered.

When will they be able to talk to someone like the director of Shonan TV?

My mind is a bit confused!
"Ali, you need to make the finale. It's still early. How about we go to your lounge and have some tea?"

Zhang Huali glanced at the crowd that had gradually gathered in the waiting room and chuckled to Lin Li.

"Okay, Director Zhang, please."

"Let's go together, Ali."

Lin Li turned sideways to signal Zhang Huali to go first, but Zhang Huali held his shoulder and walked forward together.

Seeing this, Lin Li no longer refused. He turned around, signaled to the girls with his eyes, and left with Zhang Huali.

Zhao Lusi and the others had no choice but to smile, bow and watch them leave.

The celebrities and staff in the collective waiting room did not recognize Zhang Huali, the new station director, at first. They just saw Teacher He introducing him and Lin Li and thought he was a leader of the station.

When I was surprised to learn that the new director had come in person, I wanted to go up and say hello, but when I saw that the director was chatting enthusiastically with Teacher Nanxun, I could only wait quietly on the side.

When seeing Lin Li introducing Zhao Ruth and the other two to the new director, the jealousy in the eyes of the celebrities almost solidified into substance!
What good luck this is! It’s okay for me to know Teacher Nanxun, but Teacher Nanxun also introduced me to the director. It’s really infuriating!
"Hello, Director Zhang!"

"Hello, Teacher Nanxun!"

"Hello, Teacher He!"

The group walked out of the waiting room, chatting and laughing. All the people along the way bowed and greeted them, and then slowly straightened up after watching them go away.

"Teachers, please get ready. The live broadcast is about to begin."

At this time, a staff member came over to remind the celebrities in the waiting room, and then they reacted, and the waiting room became noisy again.

However, there are still many people who would cast their gazes towards Zhao Lusi and the other two from time to time with envy on their faces.

"In that case, I'll go get ready too. Bye."

Seeing that Lin Li was not there, Zhao Lusi was too lazy to pretend. She glanced at Cheng Xiao and the others, then turned around and left accompanied by her agent's assistant.

"Heh... I'm just lucky enough to have met Teacher Nanxun earlier. There's nothing to be proud of."

Zhou Jieqiong looked at Zhao Lusi's back and curled his lips in dissatisfaction, with an unpleasant expression.

"Xiao Xiao, don't you think so?"

Zhou Jieqiong turned and looked at Cheng Xiao beside him, hoping that she would share the same hatred for the enemy as him.

Cheng Xiao didn't say much, just smiled at her, then went back to sit in front of the makeup mirror without saying a word.

"Heh...what's there to pretend about?"

Seeing this, Zhou Jieqiong muttered something, then put on a smile and walked away briskly.

At least I got to show up in front of the director today, and gained a lot!
Thinking of this, he became more determined to take down Lin Li!
At 7:30, amidst everyone’s anticipation, Shonan TV’s New Year’s Eve Gala officially began!
At the beginning of the evening party, He Jiong and Wang Han led a group of hosts from Xiangnan TV to appear on stage. After a round of jokes, accompanied by the cheers of the audience, the two announced in an excited tone that the evening party officially began!
Tonight's Spring Festival Gala on Shonan TV was filled with a retro and nostalgic atmosphere, and leading this trend were the "evergreens" of the music scene, Na Ying and Luo Dayou.

Na Ying's song "A Thousand Years at a Glance" sings about the relationship between people and cultural relics, and the vicissitudes of time.

Regardless of her character, there is nothing to criticize about Sakurako's professional ability. After all, she is a 50-year-old woman guarding the national goal.

Luo Dayu sang "Love Song 2018" about the ability of time to shape mortals, making people sigh at the passing of time.

The young artists took on the mission of singing out the traditional New Year atmosphere this time, whether it was "Cheers to the Chinese New Year" by Wang Sulong, Wei Xun, YoungG Zhang Xing, and SNH48-7SENSES, or "Woof Woof Happy New Year" by Ren Jialun, Kan Qingzi, Ji Lingcheng, Zhang Xincheng, Cheng Xiao, and Zhou Jieqiong, or "Happy New Year 18" by Du Haitao, Shen Mengchen, Wang Yibo, and Happy Boy, all made people feel the youthful atmosphere, and the joyful song and dance show made this New Year's Eve full of passionate vitality.

Huang Xiaoming teamed up with his "Chinese Restaurant" partner Jin Mengjia to easily cook the "New Year's Eve dinner". The stir-fry of his specialty "Ketchup Prawns" on the spot made the audience in front of the TV smell the aroma from a distance.

Guan Xiaotong and Wang Jia also sang a song "Di Zi Gui" to promote the beauty of Chinese tradition.

When Zhao Lusi went on stage to perform a dance in a sparkling diamond cake dress, there were bursts of screams from the audience. The audience on the live broadcast barrage also expressed their shock. It was the first time they discovered that Zhao Lusi had such a cute and sexy side.

After several more performances, the evening party came to an end. At this time, He Jiong on the stage suddenly revealed a mysterious smile and raised the microphone in his hand.

"Today we have one last guest who will come on stage to draw the lucky audience member who will win the biggest prize of the night."

"Let me emphasize that this guest is not easy to invite."

As soon as the words came out, many question marks popped up over the heads of the audience both on site and online.

Are there any other guests?

There was no official announcement before!
"Let us welcome today's last guest!"

Along with Teacher He's high-pitched voice, the big screen behind the stage slowly opened up, and with the sound of grand background music, a slender and straight figure appeared in front of everyone!

On both sides of the stage, many celebrity artists who had already performed were standing on both sides, waiting with the hosts for the last mysterious guest to come on stage.

They naturally knew who this last mysterious guest was.

They are also full of expectations!
