Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 564 Preparing for the EP, Attracting Attention (8k)

After the wrap party, Shen Juan took Wang Chuan, who was eager to be investigated, back to the hotel for a final showdown that lasted until late at night.

When I woke up the next day, it was already the morning of the 2nd.

Feeling doubly carefree (having finished filming the TV series and emptying his magazine), Shen Juan boarded a plane back to Shanghai.

Exhausted and dehydrated, Wang Chuan took a nap in the next bedroom.

Shen Juan, still full of energy, stayed in the office area to handle important work matters that required his individual confirmation and sorting.

First, the Disney documentary project team that had already been confirmed to take on the project has completed all the preliminary work and sent over their planned shooting schedule and theme content, wanting to see if there was anything Shen Juan couldn't accept so that they could revise the theme outline in advance.

It consists of six episodes and six chapters.

The estimated shooting time for each chapter is five days, and the plan is to complete all shooting tasks in stages from February to June next year.

The "Resilience" chapter involves facing flames and walking at high altitudes; the "Shock" chapter involves swimming across Arctic waters to experience the biting cold; the "Fasting" chapter, as the name suggests, involves fasting for four days; the "Strength" chapter mainly tests physical fitness; the "Memory" chapter is said to effectively promote and help the public prevent Alzheimer's disease, and has certain social welfare value; the "Acceptance" chapter uses a special device to let Shen Juan live in a nursing home to experience life with slowed movement and sensory degeneration, directly confronting "how to reconcile with the end of life".

Shen Juan had no objection to the other chapters that were not included.

They are all very interesting and very valuable.

But he wasn't really keen on participating in this fast.

It's not that he can't do it.

Rather, he was afraid that fans would imitate him.

After all, the content of the other chapters is really hard to imitate without certain conditions, but fasting is something that anyone can experience.

Therefore, Shen Juan was worried that his fans might get sick from being hungry.

Given his level of influence, he has to be mindful of public feedback and the subsequent impact of his every move; he can't afford to do anything reckless.

As an idol, he needs to set a good example for his fans and nip any risks in the bud.

Next came the matter of those Western singer friends.

Bieber sent a collaboration invitation.

After finding out the approximate release date of AS4 from Shen Juan, he decided to set the release date of his new album "Justice" for March next year, specifically before AS4, so as not to become the best supporting actor and be the runner-up for life, and to stage a drama of "Billboard 200: from empty Asia to second place to off the charts".

As for the name of the collaborative song?
Peaches.

Originally ranked 10th on Billboard's 2021 annual chart, his commercial performance was very good. In addition to Bieber and himself, the singers involved were Bieber's fellow Canadian from Canada, Daniel Kaiser. Shen Juan had a brief conversation with this talented young singer at Bieber's wedding last year, so they could be considered to know each other.

Taylor called him, saying she wanted him to help promote her new album "evermore" on social media in a couple of days.

Shen Juan readily agreed.

The main theme is "everyone for me, and I for everyone".

However, due to various reasons and numerous comments from fans and netizens, Taylor's mood has been somewhat complicated lately.

On the one hand, after experiencing Shen Juan's amazing creative talent and creative inclusiveness, she really wanted to continue working with him.

Because he is the guarantee of quality!

No one can resist the feeling of being carried by a top student in a group project!
On the other hand, her status in the music industry is too high, she has too many fans, and she takes the independent female lead route, so she can't openly fawn over Bieber, Malone, Li Nacha, etc., because if she wins too often and becomes a follower of Shen Juan in the eyes of the public, then it would be tantamount to her image collapsing.

Her career will also suffer a devastating blow, like a frog being slowly boiled in water, following in the footsteps of her "old friend" Katy Perry.

So after collaborating on the fairly well-received album "folklore" in the middle of the year, she didn't invite Shen Juan to participate in the production of this sister album "evermore".

To avoid being mocked by trolls and netizens after the album's release for claiming that all the hits on the album were written by Shen Juan and that they couldn't write songs without him.

Of course, Taylor had his troubles, and so did Shen Juan.

Every top-tier player has their own unique troubles.

Shen Juan's problem is that as the number of his "sisters-in-law" increases, he finds that his fans' tolerance for them is decreasing.

In any case, according to his observation, many Alovers' attitude is that they can accept and tacitly allow Shen Juan to date and have affairs with different women, and they can also accept Shen Juan's chaotic private life of having multiple relationships at the same time, but they cannot accept him openly showing affection, and they don't want to see his wives dancing in front of them.

They had finally convinced themselves not to care too much about Shen Juan's terrible private life, and naturally did not want to cross any red lines.

Take Taylor, who had a rich romantic life, as an example.

Why is the "foot-smelling" product so popular among Taylor Swift fans?

The main reason is that he is low-key enough.

Many times, I don't even go to Taylor Swift's concerts.

Why does Strawberry Bear have such a bad reputation now?

The main reason is that he is too high-profile.

So much so that when Taylor's new album received poor reviews, fans would blame him, saying that he influenced Taylor's creative process.

Therefore, out of necessity and to protect his sisters-in-law, Shen Juan could only minimize his public interactions with them.

It's unlikely that we'll see another instance like last year, where someone invited their sister-in-law onto the concert stage for what felt like an official announcement.

Jiangmei then called Shen Juan to ask if he could find time to remix her newly released single, "Nonsense".

Christmas is almost here, isn't it?
So she plans to release a Christmas version of "Nonsense," intending to leverage Shen Juan and the holiday's popularity to generate buzz.

Shen Juan thought about it and agreed.

After all, he wrote the song, and he already plans to release two Christmas singles, so one more won't hurt.

Ma Long called to thank Shen Juan for giving him the promotional song for next year's Pokémon Day, which allowed him to make a quick buck.

Shen Juan was a little uneasy about this.

After all, this resource originally belonged to Malone in the original timeline.

He simply used his existing Pokémon connections and the time difference to act as a middleman and profit from the difference.

Then there's the matter of the South Korean branch.
NewJeans are confirmed to debut in January next year.

All promotional and pre-launch activities have been launched simultaneously.

Moreover, as the saying goes, sons should be raised frugally, while daughters should be raised lavishly.

So Shen Juan plans to use his Instagram account with hundreds of millions of followers to promote them in a couple of days, calling on his fans to take good care of these girls who are only 15 years old on average, so that they can experience the royal treatment that no one in K-pop has ever enjoyed before, and become the legendary royal girl group.

Another one is the project mentioned earlier, which is to give back to East Asian fans and continue to develop and expand the fanbase with singles in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.

In Japanese, you can just use Back Number's "Horizon". This song not only achieved a very good number of plays in its original timeline, but also received widespread praise among young people because of its gentle lyrics and creative background. It is an important work that can help singers expand their audience and improve their public image.

In Chinese, Shen Juan composed a poem called "Wish and Sorrow".

I plan to premiere it at the New Year's Eve concert.

As for Korean
Considering that the Korean songs that have gained some popularity online in recent years are mostly K-pop idol group songs and TV drama OSTs, Shen Juan plans to find a professional filming team and invite a few professional actors to make two short music films with a bit of a storyline when he is active in South Korea next year.

This way, they can satisfy their acting cravings, meet the needs of music fans, and even, to some extent, weaken the future influence of Korean dramas.

Isn't it beautiful?

Finally, regarding Starlink's Neon branch.
While its main business remains discovering and nurturing promising new generation singers and gravure idols in Japan, it has recently launched a new business: Vtuber virtual idols. The management of the Japanese branch said that the Vtuber market is huge and has great development potential, and entering the market now may allow them to reap the benefits.

However, Shen Juan didn't understand, so he didn't pay much attention.

He simply promoted his long-lost friend Lee Do-hyun's new drama "Sweet Home" on social media.

Then I opened WeChat and started chatting with Minami-chan.

That's right, the girl Abin has opened a WeChat account.

Because she had arrived in China two days ago to begin quarantine, and if nothing unexpected happens, she is expected to be released on the 10th, she has been stuck in the hotel for the past two days with nothing to do. So she has been frantically catching up on the Shen Juan materials she had missed, and then she has been harassing Shen Juan, whom she has liked for a very long time, even more frantically.

I landed in Shanghai at noon, had lunch out, and then immediately started working without taking a break in the afternoon.

Rather than working half a day and resting half a day, he prefers to concentrate all his work into one go, finish it quickly, and then rest and take a vacation.

So, in the three days leading up to the GQ annual gala, besides shooting the cover for the January issue of Marie Claire, which LVMH had commissioned him to do, he also had to complete the recording work for several singles and Christmas singles that he planned to film music videos for in China. Overall, his work schedule in early December was quite tight.

Of course, the latter part of the month is quite relaxed.

I'll take a break after I'm done with this busy period.

At this age, it's impossible to fall asleep.

Arriving at the pre-arranged recording studio, I met with familiar friends (excellent assistants) with whom I had collaborated several times before.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, we began our work.

Considering that the filming dates for the music video with the actors and production crew have been arranged and are approaching, the main tasks at this stage are two songs: "Easy On Me" (originally sung by Adele), which has been confirmed to be released as a single for AS4, and "DAISIES" (originally sung by Justin Bieber), which will be included in the charity EP.

The former simply follows the original MV's storyline, requiring no other actors to appear on screen; he can complete the entire process by himself.

The latter's music video plot can simply be changed from the lyrics to a couple in the throes of new love showering each other with affection, and the female lead can be Zhang Ruonan.

Interestingly, this woman is nicknamed "straight man killer" and "pure first love," so playing this kind of role is like having wings.

As for the other singles in this charity EP
Firstly, collaborations like the dance track "Cold Heart" with Pai Gor, the pop rap "I Like You" with Bean Sprout Cat, the R&B "IYKYK" to give label newcomer Muni Long exposure, and the rock "Bois Lie" to try to revive the then-faded Avril Lavigne, would normally not involve spending money on music videos.

(Both Pod Cat and Avril are willing to join Shen Juan's Starlink family without compromising their own freedom.)
The other three solo tracks are even less likely to be included.

There's no reason for him to include a full music video in his charity EP.

There are exceptions to everything.

After all, the commercial success of "Cold Heart" and "I Like You" in the original timeline was truly remarkable.

One is ranked 10th on the annual list, and the other is ranked 26th.

(The former even dominated the European market at one point, but unfortunately the US had a limited acceptance of this retro disco style of dance music, and Billboard in the US did not include data on the European market performance, otherwise it would not have been impossible for it to compete with Ed Sheeran's "Shivers" which ranked fifth.)

For Shen Juan, whose annual after-tax income is in the tens of figures and who engages in various investments and financial management, fame outweighs profit.

Therefore, even if they know that a song will achieve good results, singers with a goal will still spend their own money to promote it, just to gain traffic and build up honors. They need to have a long-term vision and not miss any opportunity to attract traffic and create momentum for themselves.

We must never lose sight of the bigger picture.

(The only male king of sex in the super-generation with an annual crown)

A few days have passed in the blink of an eye, and it's December 4th now. The 2020 GQ China Annual Awards Ceremony is being held today.

The roster is pretty good.

Even without Shen Juan, it could still be considered a top-tier gala.

Among the male stars, those with higher status include Shen, Cai, Lun, Yang, Feng, Guojifeng, and Hua Tiandi. Among the female stars, Yang Mi, Yang Ying, and Ni Ni have relatively high popularity, while the others are second or third-tier figures in the entertainment industry, such as Ouyang Nana, Zhang Liangying, and Meng Meiqi.

This is, after all, a fashion gala hosted by a men's magazine, so the invited guests are mainly male celebrities; female celebrities are not as popular.

After recording the song and getting my makeup and hair done.

Travel by car to the venue.

Shanghai Museum of Contemporary Art.

The red carpet event at this year's GQ Awards will begin promptly at 5 p.m. and is expected to last for two hours and forty minutes.

As celebrities walked the red carpet one after another, a series of unedited photos of the red carpet were uploaded to the internet, sparking heated discussions among netizens.

[With those gold-rimmed glasses on today, Ruoyun looks like a refined scholar. No wonder he's called Lord Fan! So handsome!]

[Yang Yang is amazing! Having models leading the way is so impressive! Sculpted beauty! The ultimate representative of classic Chinese male beauty!]

[OMG! Li Yifeng is so handsome! That staircase pose was amazing! I wonder how many girls will succumb to his charm tonight!]

[Yixing looks a bit swollen today, and she seems a little timid. Is it because she's been too busy with work and hasn't had enough rest?]

[It's so cold, and female celebrities still have to wear dresses on the red carpet, hahaha! Their breath is practically white! It's outrageous!]

[KunKun's silver hair look has a sharp, striking beauty! Diamond-like brilliance! We KunKun fans are so lucky to see this!]

7:30 p.m.

Shen Juan finally arrived at the waiting area for the red carpet right on time.

The staff, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly and respectfully stepped forward to greet him and briefly explained the subsequent red carpet procedures.

Shen Juan nodded as he walked, and soon he was on the stairs, stepping onto the star-studded red carpet.

Seeing this, the red carpet host immediately perked up, mustered all her energy, and began to announce the program in a passionate and enthusiastic manner:

"Distinguished guests, friends! Next up on the red carpet is our grand finale guest, someone who will send everyone into a frenzy!"

"He is not only a regular singer on my playlist, accompanying countless fans and listeners through countless days and nights, and bringing spiritual encouragement to countless people, but also an all-around artist who shines in multiple fields. While promoting the overall development and progress of the industry, he sets a correct benchmark for all his peers and all newcomers!"

"Besides being a singer and actor, he is also a philanthropist who is always on the front line of public welfare, a cross-border producer who promotes the development of youth art, and a cultural communicator who hides a positive attitude in his speeches and works and uses his huge influence to spread positive energy!"

"By now, do you all have the answer in your hearts? That's right! He is the hottest singer in the world right now, an old friend of our Zhizu, and a native of Shanghai who has always been devoted to this city, Alex Shen Juan! Please give our idol a warm welcome with the loudest screams!"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the lights suddenly focused on the entrance to the red carpet. Looking at the glowing figure, the media area was abuzz with excitement. Amid cheers and screams, Shen Juan walked down the steps and onto the red carpet of the ceremony. He then stopped in front of the backdrop and began to receive a barrage of flashes from the cameras.

Her makeup was elegant and her expression was aloof.

The sheer aura of dominance practically overflows the screen. It has to be said, some people can capture everyone's attention the moment they appear, letting the world know they are the sole protagonist.

The media reporters at the scene crowded together, all calling out Shen Juan's name, trying to get him to cooperate for a photo.

The online live stream room was already buzzing with excitement.

[I'm not just handsome, he also has substance!]

This guy has a serious case of "good looks are everything" syndrome; he's so handsome it's reassuring.

[He's so handsome my pants are practically falling off! This is the world's most handsome man! Global sea levels are rising because he's too good-looking!]

On May 20, 1998, when Shen Juan was born, her parents asked the doctor if it was a boy or a girl. The doctor replied, "It's your husband."

[Being a husband is an attitude; that attitude is serene and enduring.]

Shen Juan is the sky, Shen Juan is the earth, Shen Juan stands tall and upright for me. With Shen Juan, even the hardest life doesn't feel tiring; with Shen Juan, I'm fearless of any obstacle; with Shen Juan, I'm not worried about any setback. With Shen Juan, I am happy; with Shen Juan, I am life. Every second without Shen Juan is torture.

[Besides Shen Juan, there are no other fans who admire her appearance.]

His appearance made all the previous "brother is so handsome" comments laughable; this man is a god, his entrance instantly killed the game!

No wonder so many people want to get into his "fish pond" (a metaphor for a scam where people are cheated out of their money). If I encountered someone like that in real life, I would definitely be swindled out of every penny.

After the media photo session, Shen Juan approached the host for an interview. He briefly promoted the movie "A Little Red Flower," which is scheduled to be released at the end of the month, as well as the charity EP and AS4, which are planned for release next year. Then, led by his staff, Shen Juan entered the venue to wait for the evening to begin.

It's worth mentioning that GQ China's dinner this year was prepared according to the standards of a formal banquet. Each table was equipped with a steaming hot pot with two separate broths, plus plenty of hot pot ingredients and drinks. This ingenious design was said to be to ensure that celebrity guests could socialize on the spot while also filling their stomachs.

However, to ensure their appearance and condition are not affected, it is highly unlikely that any of the celebrities who are already seated will overeat.

There was still some time before the grand ceremony officially began, so the friends in the industry who rarely had the opportunity to get together seized the chance to expand their networks or chat together. However, Shen Juan didn't have any intention of actively expanding his network, because at his current level, it was usually others who took the initiative to find him.

Sure enough, I had barely sat down and started playing on my phone when several colleagues gathered around me.

Some wanted to talk to him about future development, while others simply came over to say hello and get acquainted. The once quiet corner instantly became lively.

The questions asked by the center of Idol Producer were all related to music.

This guy doesn't want to be an actor; he's content to be a singer.

Unfortunately, like his mentor Lay, he has limited talent.

Aside from his looks, his songwriting and vocals are both mediocre.

They can only rely on intensive marketing to fool netizens who are naive and love to follow trends.

Moreover, as a talent show idol who emerged in 18, it is generally expected that his fan base and popularity would gradually decline over time. Fortunately, he joined Running Man this year to maintain his exposure, and in May, he released a hit single called "Lover" that is hard to say whether it was original or not. Otherwise, he might have experienced a major decline in popularity this year.

So you're planning to release a new album next year?

"Yes, I've already started writing songs."

Although there were other peers around, there was nothing to hide, and Cai Xukun openly and frankly admitted it.

After all, these kinds of things are easy to find out.

So it doesn't matter if Zhang Yixing finds out.

Anyway, they're no longer on the same level.

"Then come on."

However, Shen Juan found it difficult to maintain his composure.

Because he knew how exaggerated this album, "The Enigma," was.

It's not that the songs in it are exaggerated.

After all, most celebrities in the entertainment industry play on information asymmetry, and paying homage to Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea is commonplace in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Rather, it's that the release of this album and the subsequent controversies were simply too bizarre and outrageous.

The song wasn't even finished when it was released online for sale.

As a result, only 5 songs were released 4 months after the album's release, and the remaining songs were never available, and didn't even have names.

All I can say is that this guy has some skills when it comes to advance loans.

I'm short of money, so I'll borrow some from my fans first.

He will repay the debt by releasing a new song six months later.

Treat your fans like a bank.

He has a good business sense.

This broadened Shen Juan's horizons.

Cai Xukun's turn is over, it's Lay's turn.

This guy recently took on a role in iQiyi's "I Am a Singer-Songwriter 2," which basically involves inviting a group of singers to write and perform songs on the spot.

Hua Zi, who impersonated a singer, participated in the first season.

His intention was clearly to label himself as a capable actor, but unfortunately, it only reinforced the public's stereotype of him.

"Brother Juan, are you planning to have your new album produced abroad next year?" Zhang Yixing leaned closer, his body slightly forward, his eyes filled with obvious, cautious flattery as he looked at Shen Juan. He was very humble, afraid that he might accidentally offend Shen Juan and have his right to ride on his coattails to promote China's power revoked.

Shen Juan glanced at him casually, took a small sip of the red wine, and nodded slightly in response, "Mm."

Seeing his response, Zhang Yixing's eyes lit up, and he immediately leaned forward again, his expectation in his tone becoming more obvious. He was acting like a complete sycophant, which made Kun Kun unable to help but complain about his ability to flatter people: "Then could you help me recommend a few good production teams? I'm planning to release a song next year."

"But haven't you been promoting a Chinese style lately? What's the point of hiring a foreign team?" Shen Juan frowned slightly, a little puzzled.

"I want to combine traditional Chinese music elements with modern pop music to promote the integration of multilingual and multi-style music."

"."

Dude, do you really need to talk about it in such a high-class way?

Shen Juan knew exactly what he wanted to do.

High emotional intelligence: Combining Chinese and Western approaches and keeping pace with the times.

Low emotional intelligence: consuming traditional Chinese culture.

Slightly speechless
But you can't hit someone who's smiling at you.

Moreover, Shen Juan is a respectable person, so he still offered encouragement and promised to promote several Grammy-level teams.

Anyway, the Grammy team only sounds high-end in China, but it's actually commonplace in North America. Only the Chinese entertainment industry's traffic stars, who even take the opportunity to buy trending topics like "So-and-so performed at the Grammys" when visiting the Grammy Museum or paying to appear on the official website's collaboration stage, would treat them like treasures.

Following closely behind, Zhang Ruoyun chatted with Shen Juan about the daily life on set and Xiao Ye's experience recording Detective 100 a while ago.

Compared to Lay, who only wanted to be a sycophant, and Kun Kun, whose relationship was gradually fading, Zhang Ruoyun was clearly closer to Shen Juan.

Therefore, the tone of voice during conversations is more casual.

"When your little one was filming on set, he was always sticking to Meng Ziyi and Li Wanda, whispering to each other. The three of them were inseparable. Later, Li Wanda finished filming her scenes and left early, and their relationship became even closer. They would even go to the bathroom together on set, like conjoined twins."

“I know, Wan Da said the same thing.”

"These young girls make friends so quickly."

"What about Detective Ming? Xiao Ye came back from recording Detective Ming a while ago and talked to me for a long time about things that happened on the show."

"She performed exceptionally well on the show. She's quick-witted and meticulous. When searching for evidence, she could even find small notes hidden in the sofa cushions. Unlike us, who are sometimes in a rush to advance the plot, we often miss these crucial clues. Moreover, she has her own set of judgment logic. Every time we have a group discussion, she can sort out a bunch of scattered evidence and connect them together. Even Teacher He praised her for her clear thinking and said that she has the talent of a detective."

"Really? I get the feeling she's a bit slow?"

"Maybe love makes people stupid?"

"When did you become so humorous?" Shen Juan couldn't help but roll her eyes, which made Zhang Ruoyun burst into laughter.

Those unfamiliar with Shen Juan say he is aloof and arrogant, but those who get to know him know that his arrogance is only shown to those who are opportunistic and have questionable morals. In private, he is not only approachable but also friendly, not at all as unapproachable as outsiders say.

(Zhou Ye as seen through Wajuan's eyes)

After the Luohan game ended, Shen Juan's ability to attract attention began to take effect again. Ni Ni, who had been eyeing Shen Juan for a long time, quickly came over and sat down next to him. Her tone was natural and familiar, and she was the first to steal Shen Juan's attention.

What have you been up to lately?

Shen Juan put down his phone and looked up at Miao Zong, whom he hadn't seen in a long time: "I've been busy with work, but now I'm chatting with you."

Ni Ni smiled upon hearing this, leaned slightly closer to him, raised her hand to cover her mouth, deliberately lowered her voice, and asked with a hint of mischief, "Have you missed me lately?"

"Have."

"Then why didn't you come looking for me?"

"I just haven't contacted you, not that I haven't missed you."

"Damn! You've gotten even more scumbag-like."

Shen Juan ignored Ni Ni's harmless retort and directly asked, "What about you? Have you missed me?"

After a moment's thought, Ni Ni gave her answer.

"I thought about it for a while, about seven seconds."

Shen Juan raised an eyebrow: "Just seven seconds?"

Ni Ni was amused by his reaction: "There's nothing I can do. After all, I'm just a fish in your pond, and a fish's memory only lasts seven seconds."

Shen Juan couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Is this some kind of turn-based abstract love confession battle?
Ni Ni laughed even more heartily.

It's my turn now, and I've successfully turned the tide!
"Oh right, did you eat anything before you came here tonight?"

"No."

Aren't you hungry now?

"I'm not hungry. Are you hungry?"

"Kind of."

"Just eat if you're hungry! There are so many ingredients on the table, just throw some into the hot pot, it'll fill you up." Shen Juan was saying this when a strange competitive spirit suddenly arose in his heart, making him seem to remember something. He smiled at her beautiful face and added, "Sure enough, being pretty doesn't put food on the table."

Ni Ni was stunned by his words. After regaining her senses, she looked him up and down for a while before smiling and exclaiming, "You're so good at this!"

Shen Juan scratched his head dramatically, "So this is what it means? I've always felt that making you happy is what I should do."

After saying goodbye to the scumbag who knew she had divided her heart into many parts, but still willingly let herself be coaxed into pouting by the cat boss, the new guest of "If You Are the One: Wajuan Special" made her debut.

Yang Ying is once again subtly seducing people while selling roast meat.

Her eyes were like spring water, and her smile was charming.

Shen Juan was all too familiar with this scene.

He even suspected that if he tapped Yang Ying on the head three times, she would come to the hotel to meet him secretly at three o'clock in the morning.

Then, a couple of days later, rumors spread that a certain Mr. Shen had a late-night affair with a certain Ms. Yang, and that he had cheated on a certain Mr. Huang, a famous actor.

This woman is desperate to find a new big shot to cling to in order to break free from Huang Xiaoming's protection and completely sever ties with him.

Ouyang Nana is acting cute and coquettish again.

Shen Juan didn't know if it was because of the influence of neon lights, but he always felt that Taiwanese girls were particularly open and knew how to have fun.

Meng Meiqi is once again deliberately trying to please others; this woman clearly wants to use Cheng Xiao's connection to get close to Shen Juan.

But Xiao Xiao said she didn't like Meng Meiqi.

Their relationship was rather superficial.

Therefore, Shen Juan naturally wouldn't get too close to her.

As for Yang Mi, whose eyes were filled with undisguised desire, Shen Juan did not expect that his casual remark of "long time no see" would make her tremble slightly. Her voice and expression became more charming and alluring, and her gaze towards him became more and more fiery, filled with raging flames.

It can only be said that habitual fever is a medical condition.

It requires periodic injections to barely suppress the symptoms.

After chatting for a short while, the grand ceremony began.

Everyone returned to their seats.

As for the next steps
Everything is quite standard.

It's nothing more than a series of performances and an awards ceremony where pork is distributed.

So when the host called Shen Juan's name and presented him with the most prestigious award of the night, "Artist of the Year," the event came to a close.

Not much to say.

There's nothing worth lingering over.

Let's call it a day and head home to have some fun!
