Chinese entertainment started with male models

Chapter 430 "Beauty" is only fit for the strong.

When he was interviewed, Bai Liang had just found out that he had been inexplicably nominated for an award.

This left him somewhat bewildered.

However, the female host who interviewed him, who had undergone plastic surgery, subtly hinted at her intentions while showing off her cleavage.

After a quick thought, Bai Liang roughly guessed what was going on.

So the Koreans even created an award specifically for him!
That's interesting.

To be fair, they were quite good at flattering, and they managed to hit the nail on the head regarding what Bai Liang was interested in.

Wouldn't an award created specifically for this purpose be considered a limited edition? The kind where he won it once and no one else could get it.

In that case, it would actually be quite valuable for collection.

As for its gold content, Bai Liang didn't really care about that.

Seeing that Bai Liang was clearly more interested, the female host thought he was interested in her and tried even harder to show him off.

Unfortunately, Bai Liang doesn't discriminate against people with plastic surgery faces; as long as they look good and natural, he appreciates them however he wants.

But if it's made too template-like, it's easy for him to have trouble recognizing the faces.

This is completely different from the similarity between the "sexy sisters". Li Xin and Li Yitong have very distinct personal characteristics. They are just similar from some angles. It is easy to tell who is who.

But at this moment, he truly couldn't tell the difference.

However, he did accept the business card that was secretly slipped to him, because he usually wouldn't refuse such things to someone's face, lest he hurt their feelings.

And sure enough, after accepting the call, he didn't forget to smile at the person.

The female host seemed a little shy.

It's as if I'm already imagining a wonderful evening tonight.

Bai Liang arrived relatively late; most of the nominated idol groups and today's guests had already entered and taken their seats.

The awards ceremony was quite lively, with the audience filling the seats to capacity.

Perhaps because the South Korean entertainment industry is highly competitive, with a limited market size and a huge number of idol groups, going to Japan after debuting can alleviate competitive pressure and expand into new fan groups.

Therefore, companies like SM and YG usually let their groups accumulate popularity in South Korea before expanding into Japan to increase their influence, which generally takes about two and a half years.

Two and a half years after their debut, they set their sights on the Japanese market.

So it's quite normal that Japanese people were willing to come and support the event; most of the fans there were casual diners.

Of course, what South Koreans envy most is their neighbor, the great Eastern country with its 1.4 billion people! They're so envious they're practically drooling. Plus, the money the Chinese entertainment industry offers is really high. Before the ban on Korean entertainment, when these South Korean artists came to China for gigs, it was considered "making money."

The stadium was ablaze with starlight as the Japanese girls cheered enthusiastically, waving glow sticks of various colors and chanting the names of boy and girl groups.

Excellent, very impressive!
Bai Liang strolled along with the staff as they entered, and it was quite a distance to walk.

Because his position was at the very front.

As they walked along, they naturally attracted a lot of attention, and every now and then one could hear hushed exclamations and discussions.

At this moment, the idea king arrived, though late!
After entering the arena, Wang Jia'er kept glancing back. When Bai Liang finally got close, he suddenly stood up.

"Brother Liang!"

"Holy crap!"

Bai Liang was startled by him; why did he suddenly stand up?

But the ones who were truly startled were not him, but rather the large group of Korean artists surrounding Wang Jiaer.

As soon as he took the lead, a bunch of people instinctively stood up with him, somewhat like a person-to-person transmission.

First, it was his teammates in that group, and then others saw them standing up and followed suit. A few who might not have wanted to stand up, seeing this situation, had no choice but to stand up too in order to fit in and not stand out.
A beat too slow to react, Xu Minghao, another Chinese member of a boy band, could only sigh that his senior was indeed a senior, his speed was just too fast.

He had just tried to stand up, but someone beat him to it.

Appeared!
A common greeting in the Korean entertainment industry is a bow.
Bai Liang originally thought that since he debuted relatively late, he probably wouldn't have much of a chance to enjoy the unique senior-junior culture in Korea.

Many of the idols here are probably his seniors.

He was even secretly wondering just now: what if one of those brainless novel plots happened, with some Korean guy forcing him to stand up and bow?
As a result, led by Wang Jia'er, this group of Korean male idols collectively gave him a deep bow.

Private First Class! Loyal! Honest!
The commotion almost made Bai Liang reach into his pocket.

The scene was just like when his younger siblings, nephews, and nieces asked him for lucky money during Chinese New Year.

Hello, hello. How are you all?

After greeting him, Bai Liang looked at Wang Jia'er and couldn't help but mutter to himself: "I hope this kid doesn't get a beating later."
However, while Wang Jia'er's actions might indeed earn him some criticism, they also inspired Wang's second idea for the evening.

There are experts too!

Wow, is that even possible?
Song Yuqi was just discussing Bai Liang with her teammates.

Her teammate asked her if she knew the other person, and the girl shamelessly said that she did. After all, she is a regular guest on the Chinese version of Running Man and has a wide network of connections!
This made her sisters look very envious.

She felt very proud, but also realized she had over-bragged. Just as she was wondering what to do, Wang Jia'er gave her a demonstration.

Song Yuqi: Wow! Good bro! I didn't know you could play like this~
She learned something and immediately copied it down to use.

The previous group consisted of male idols; this time it's female idols.

"Teacher Bai!"

Then I heard a booming voice, and it even had a bit of a smoky tone~
A whole bunch of them stood up with a whoosh.
This time, Bai Liang couldn't help but twitch his lips twice. Two Chinese people, leading a group of Koreans, were bowing and greeting him?
This scene looks so strange.
Seeing Song Yuqi's expectant yet slightly reserved expression, Bai Liang didn't let the girl's wish go unfulfilled. He smiled and nodded to her in greeting.

"Do you think you'll win an award today? Maybe I'll even be the one presenting it to you."

After saying this to Song Yuqi in Chinese, he thoughtfully repeated it in Korean.

The result left the members of their group flattered but also a little embarrassed.

Hmm, the chances aren't very high.
How come we're so bad?
The commotion from the two "Loyalty! Sincerity!" performances finally attracted the attention of the audience and the cameramen.

When the camera focused on Bai Liang's face and it appeared on the big screen, the male and female fans in the audience were stunned for a moment. After a pause of about a second, the decibels of their cheers rose to another level.

Let's get to know an Asian superstar~
However, Bai Liang was starting to hate himself for knowing Japanese. Damn it, why were those Japanese girls still calling out those ridiculously chuunibyou nicknames? They kept starting with things like "Imperial Territory," which made him cringe.

These Japanese girls have incredibly loud voices, and they're quite skilled at organizing cheering sessions, their synchronized movements making it seem like they've rehearsed beforehand.

"What are those Japanese girls shouting? Can someone translate it? It sounds pretty catchy."

"Those 'movie emperors,' 'teenage presidents,' and stuff like that. So damn melodramatic, kind of like those 'dreams of 900 million girls' dramas in China~"

"The sage is really impressive! So many people stood up and bowed to him, and many of them must be older than him!"

"Check out this Asian superstar. His movies are about to gross 30 billion RMB. The top movie stars in those two countries combined might not even equal his box office. And his documentary is all the rage on foreign websites right now. Everyone says he's an extreme sports god. He's really making waves overseas."

"Go, Master! Drive the Italian cannons into Seoul and Tokyo!"

"Screw him, look who's sitting next to him, that guy's watching. He won't eat a single bite of the kimchi or sushi."

"What can he eat?"

"Hmm, naan."

"God, you can't even say something like 'hamburger'!"

"."

The 2019 Mnet Asian Music Awards were broadcast live on iQiyi. Originally, only some male and female group fans were paying attention to this event, but after the news that Bai Liang was also attending spread, it attracted more onlookers and his fans.

Everyone was very satisfied with the result. It was great, and it made us feel very proud!
Seeing their own artists have such a high profile outside gives them a secret sense of satisfaction.

A negative example is Du Haitao, who knelt before the Koreans back then, creating a lifelong black mark on his record. I don't know what he was thinking.

When it comes to kneeling
Bai Liang then remembered that Yang Tianbao and Ni Ni each owed him a kowtow.
At this moment, Yang Tianbao's seat was not far from him and Nazha, only a few people away.

After glancing at the expression on the other person's face and at Nazana's slightly smug look, Bai Liang quickly came to a conclusion.

"You argued with her again?"

"Hmph! She provoked me first~" That girl is showing that she's not afraid of trouble and loves to cause trouble, so she'll fight back every time she comes!
"Did we win?" Bai Liang asked as he sat down.

"Of course~"

Nazha really likes Bai Liang's attitude of not asking anything else but caring about whether she has won or not.

Bai Liang: It's good that we won!
"Beauty" is only meant for the strong, a point already demonstrated by Yan Ying, Nie Feng's mother in "Storm Riders".

Seeing that Nazha was so powerful, Bai Liang felt relieved.

It's truly a case of "a man should be looked at with new eyes after thirty years"~ It just feels like this was entirely created by Dilraba.
The large screen at the venue was still focused on Bai Liang, as if the camera had been welded to him before the awards ceremony officially began.

However, Naza's appearance in the frame at this time also caused quite a stir.

Domestic audiences have naturally become accustomed to shipping them—they're used to it.

However, many people watching the live stream in South Korea were exclaiming: Who is she? She's so beautiful!

The first half of the sentence is disliked, but the second half shows they have good taste.
However, when the belatedly arriving Lin Yun'er appeared on the scene, Nazha felt like she was about to start another war! Were those Koreans doing this on purpose? She wondered why Bai Liang's other seat was still empty.
This trip was supposed to be a sweet date, but it ended up being spent dealing with all sorts of bitches!

angry.

However, while angry, they were also gathering momentum.

Ready to fight at any time!
Yang Tianbao cast an expectant glance at him: "Are you good at fighting? What good is being good at fighting? In this world, you need power and connections. This is a Korean awards ceremony. You think you can bully Lin Yun'er?"

Lin Yun'er: ? ? ?

Sister, can you please not drag me into your bragging?

She had witnessed the terrifying scene of Naza and Reba almost shooting sparks at each other, although she had only watched and hadn't participated.

But that was enough for her to raise the white flag: she's already behaving herself, so let her go, and I'll just rub against her.
"Oppa, it's been so long~"

Lin Yun'er greeted Bai Liang warmly, and then greeted Na Zha even more warmly.

You can't hit someone who's smiling, and the other person's attitude made it seem like all of Nazha's accumulated power was useless.

Uh... Little Kimchi is so sensible!
Okay, okay.

The people who were most upset at this moment were not Yang Tianbao, who was unable to see the "intense fight," but rather the members of the Korean boy band present.

Hey buddy, give me some screen time!
However, this is not the most outrageous part.

What's truly outrageous is the awards ceremony.

Bai Liang, as an award presenter, gave an award to a boy band that he himself didn't know what it was.

However, he still politely stood there smiling and clapping.

As a result, the boy band members, who were originally on the verge of tears of joy, turned around and found that the image on the big screen was not directed at them for winning the award, but was still directed at Bai Liang, who was clapping.

Wait, who actually won the award?

Perhaps this is the true value of being named the world's most handsome face in 2019.

This was mentioned by the host earlier, and Bai Liang had no idea that he actually had this thing.

It seems the results were just announced not long ago.

Naza said that this ranking is very authoritative and that he has been paying attention to it for a long time.

When asked when she specifically started paying attention to it, she said last week.

In short, since Bai Liang is ranked first, he must be extremely authoritative.

Naza firmly believed this.

What a coincidence! The second one was also there today; she's a member of BTS, named Jeon Jungkook.

After exchanging curious glances, Bai Liang and Na Zha suddenly realized that being number one wasn't all that impressive.

There was another member in their group who ranked fifth, and Xiao Zhan was ranked seventh.

Bai Liang commented: Not as good as the Weibo Best Actor.

"I'm going to present the awards too!"

When the staff came looking for Naza, she set off with great confidence.

I'm getting ready to show off my English skills.

Bai Liang also began to make preparations, half-covering his chin, his heart filled with some sad emotions.

He had no choice; otherwise, he was afraid he might accidentally burst out laughing later.

At this moment, Lin Yun'er finally took advantage of the time when Na Zha was not around to chat with Bai Liang for a few minutes.

When she turned her head, she was met with a pair of exceptionally "melancholy" eyes, which stunned her.

Without realizing it, he stared at Bai Liang for about ten seconds.

As she watched, her mouth slightly opened, but she didn't react yet.

This scene was captured precisely by the cameras on site, and many of YoonA's male fans in South Korea were quite taken aback.

Bai Liang had no idea that he had inadvertently caused considerable harm to a certain group, and even if he did, he wouldn't care.

Because he has a bad habit of pinching his fingers to express a quantity like "a tiny bit".

Making this gesture is tantamount to losing out on the South Korean male market.

"Huh? You're drooling."

"Oppa, don't lie to me!"

This time, Bai Liang really didn't tell any little lies; he was a truly honest and reliable young man.

If you're going to be a fangirl, just be a fangirl. Why are you opening your mouth like that? No wonder you have a nickname, Crocodile Yoongi.

The conversation didn't continue because Nazha had already taken the stage.

It's clear that she's quite confident; after standing in the center of the stage, she even flipped her hair.

With her long, wavy hair parted to the side and wearing a silver off-the-shoulder gown that showed off her beautiful figure, she was absolutely radiant.

So far, there are no problems at all!

Then she began her English showcase.

It was a little strange from the beginning; her English sounded like it was being listened to at double speed.

Coupled with her sweet, childlike voice, she's actually quite adorable.

However, Bai Liang wasn't sure if it was because of a filter, because the Korean male celebrity who presented the award with Na Zha on stage had a rather indescribable expression on his face, as if he was trying to suppress a laugh.

Bai Liang: I can't laugh, I can't laugh, I can't laugh.
"Poor, huh!!!"

"puff"

Ouch~ What are you doing~
The sadness that had been building up for so long was completely ruined by Nazha's shout.

Bai Liang covered his face with one hand, his shoulders trembling. Anyone who didn't know better would think he had suddenly fallen seriously ill.

The South Korean female celebrity named "Qiong Ha" also seemed completely bewildered, and it took her a while to realize that she was actually being called by her name.

"It's all over, it ...."

After stepping down, Nazha clearly lost his previous confidence.

Looking at the strange looks from the people around her, especially Yang Tianbao, whom she had previously criticized, made her feel incredibly ashamed and embarrassed.

How embarrassing! And this embarrassment has spread internationally, what are we going to do?
At that moment, she subconsciously looked at Bai Liang with pitiful eyes.

"It's alright." Bai Liang didn't laugh this time, because Na Zha still cared a lot about her image in this regard. She was very vain, and he couldn't rub salt into her wounds.

You should only laugh at her after she's in a better mood; that's when it's time to joke.

"They are related."

Although she knew that things had come to this point and Bai Liang couldn't help her turn back time, Na Zha couldn't help but reveal her emotions to him.

Seeing her defeated and ashamed expression, Bai Liang thought for a moment, "I have a plan that can be used."

"What plan?"

"You'll know right away."

The award that the organizers specially commissioned for Bai Liang came soon after, and Lin Yun'er was the presenter.

All I can say is that the organizers know how to create a good show.

Bai Liang had just chatted with Lin Yun'er for a few minutes and discovered that she had also been invited at the last minute.

Whether it was proactive or reactive, that's unclear.

However, whether it was voluntary or not, Bai Liang should first apologize.

He needs to appease that person first.

When Bai Liang went on stage to present the award, he actually spoke English, and of course, there were no problems; his accent was absolutely perfect.
This time, however, Bai Da Guanren stopped acting and began his own solo performance.

He gave his acceptance speech four times!

First it was Chinese, then Korean, and then Japanese.

When he spoke Korean, most of the Korean celebrities present looked surprised, as if they hadn't expected him to speak Korean so well.

When the Japanese was spoken, the audience became excited.

However, the main event was the final English lesson.
Everyone noticed that Bai Liang, who used to speak fluently, suddenly experienced a sharp decline in his English proficiency.
