Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 587 Drink a glass of juice to get rid of childishness
After the interview, they walked off the red carpet.

Considering how annoying social interactions are, I'm always bothered by colleagues at large events and forced to chat about meaningless things.

So instead of following the staff into the inner area, I went to the lounge to sit for a while and browse the news.

#KiwiScreamForLoveRedCarpet#, #HuaweiHeiressYaoAnnaDebuts#, #ShenJuanHuawei#, #Starlink#
To summarize a few hot topics: TaoChang's annual party, which featured a star-studded lineup, received praise for its innovative format; Yao Anna, dubbed the "daughter of capital," officially debuted and was subjected to humiliation and criticism from netizens on multiple levels, including appearance, figure, and professional skills; and the fan wars sparked by Shen Juan's endorsement of Huawei.

Many speculate that Shen Juan's strong support for Yao Anna's debut was primarily aimed at securing a Huawei endorsement deal.

This can be seen from the timeline of their official announcements. Yao Anna had just announced her official debut when Huawei immediately announced Shen Juan as their global brand ambassador for all their mobile phones. The timing was as smooth as Dove chocolate.

but it is not the truth.

This was actually a clever idea from Huawei's public relations department.

They deliberately timed Shen Juan's endorsement announcement after Yao Anna's debut, with the aim of creating a misconception that even the world-renowned Shi Yi was forced to be coerced by the brand in order to secure Huawei's resources, and even spent a lot of time and energy cultivating Huawei's daughter to pursue her dream in the entertainment industry.

This deliberately created coincidence not only paved the way for Yao Anna's debut by leveraging Shen Juan's popularity, but also elevated Huawei's brand image, making a pop star "voluntarily pay attention" to the brand, thus demonstrating the brand's strength and industry status.

It can only be said that their methods are in no way inferior to Xiaomi's.

Shen Juan was already exhausted from spending money on these two brands.

I don't know if I should continue to endorse these brands whose marketing efforts even he, as a celebrity, finds excessive.
In addition, many people took the opportunity to stir up trouble, saying that Shen Juan endorses the entire line, while Yi Yangqianxi can only endorse the nova line. Although the two are only two years apart, the difference is bigger than that between a person and a dog.

【.】

(Kangxi is an untouchable figure)
Seeing these disgusting comments that humiliate and torture Millennium from head to toe, the fans are naturally very angry!
Even if you're really angry, you just have to hold it in!

After all, the examples of Wu Jiaheng and Xiao Zhan are right in front of us.

They've seen how fierce Xiao Chun Juan is and how powerful Shen Juan's backing is; that's damage that the Chinese entertainment industry can't withstand!
We can't possibly send Wu Jiaheng away in November, Wei Wuxian away in December, and now have Shen Juan send Qianxi away in January, can we?
That's just too outrageous!
Moreover, they knew that many of these people were definitely fans of Wang Junkai, Wang Yuan, Xiao Zhan, and Wang Yibo, who were stirring up trouble under false pretenses.

This group of swordsmen are skilled at recognizing a thief as their father and using someone else's power to bully others. They love to go out and torture people every day under Shen Juan's name.

I wonder how many people wish they would offend Shen Juan!
This means that if they are not careful, they could be misinterpreted and thus attract the attention of the biggest criminal forces in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Therefore, I really dare not act rashly!
They were terrified of getting themselves into trouble and causing their idols to suffer severe consequences!
This coward
It seems I really need to behave myself for a while.

Boom boom boom!
There was a sudden knock on the door of the lounge.

Shen Juan gestured for his assistant to go open the door.

The visitor was none other than Xiao Hu, who was also attending the event.

"Weren't you with Boyang? Why are you here alone?" Shen Juan got up from the sofa and went over to greet Xiao Hu, who could only receive remote guidance on cultivation via video during this period.

I said I was going to the restroom!

Hu Lianxin excitedly stepped forward, opened her arms and threw herself into Shen Juan's embrace, absorbing the long-lost spiritual energy.

"You just lied to your best friend like that?"

"I have my own little tricks too!" Hu Lianxin smiled and raised her head, her eyes filled with undisguised cunning and smugness.

Seeing her make such a charming and cute expression, Shen Juan couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her slightly pouting red lips.

Seeing this, the assistant, though somewhat speechless, still wisely opened the door quietly and left, closing it behind her. Then, she dutifully stood guard outside the lounge, pretending to check her phone, keeping watch for the two to prevent anyone else from disturbing their private meeting.

Love security guards, that's all!
The unusually long and deep kiss finally came to an end when the soft, moist connection between their lips and teeth slowly dissipated.

Xiao Hu's delicate, fair cheeks were flushed with an intoxicating blush. Her eyes were already glazed over and she was panting heavily. She was taking small sips of fresh air, her chest rising and falling slightly. Even her lipstick had been kissed off, giving her a slightly messy yet alluring look. Compared to usual, she had an even more captivating charm.

Why did everyone on your team go out?

"Maybe they were scared by your infatuated appearance."

"What perverted woman? Do I look that exaggerated?"

"There really is. You can take out your phone and see what you look like now. Your whole face, including the back of your ears, is red."

"I...I just love it too much!"

"How much love?"

"How much do you love me?" Hu Lianxin gently repeated Shen Juan's words, her gaze first falling on his handsome face, then glancing down at him. She couldn't help but lick her lips, and said softly with a shy and charming expression, "I love you so much that I'm willing to do anything for you, no matter what it is."

After saying that, she gently pushed the unsuspecting, or rather, coyly resisting Shen Juan, onto the sofa, and then knelt in front of him.

"How come you're getting bolder and bolder?"

"Who told you to become more and more charming?"

Shen Juan noticed that as their relationship deepened, Xiao Hu's behavior when they were alone together seemed to be getting increasingly strange.

At times, she is simply the embodiment of lust!

Of course, this is not a bad thing.

Because he happens to enjoy it.

So he quietly took out his phone and sent a WeChat message to his assistant, telling her to keep a close watch on the door and not let even a mosquito in!
This year's Kiwi annual meeting featured a uniquely decorated waiting area, resembling a celebrity party.

The waiting area is divided into party-style sections.

Artists can engage in a variety of entertainment activities.

Besides eating hot pot and playing mahjong, you can also play billiards and arcade games, or simply sit on the sofa and chat in groups of three or five.

In addition, Kiwi also arranged for several well-known film and television producers and popular variety show producers to act as NPCs in the waiting area.

The artists present were free to chat with, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant, presenting a lively scene.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Shen Juan.

Because it's always others who come to him to get to know him.

He did not actively seek out other people for social interaction.

So they went straight to the sparsely populated hot pot area and met up with Pan Weibao, who had been waiting there for a long time.

As Pan Weibao deftly added tripe to the pot, he joked with a smile, "I've already eaten several rounds, why did it take you so long?"

Xiao Hu coughed lightly twice, his eyes showing amusement.

Shen Juan remained calm and composed, his expression unchanged.

"How could the grand finale arrive early?"

"Huh? What kind of ridiculous reason is that? The red carpet event ended so long ago, what does it have to do with being the finale? Do you think I didn't watch the live stream?"

As soon as Shen Juan pulled out a stool and sat down, Pan Shuai placed the tripe, which had already been blanched, into the bowl in front of Shen Juan.

"Okay, actually we went to discuss business."

"How big of a business?"

"Several hundred million!" "Awesome!"

What made it difficult for Shen Juan and Xiao Hu to keep their composure was
Pan Shuai didn't think there was anything wrong with that statement.

He really believed it.

My buddy really thought Shen Juan had bought another team somewhere.

"By the way, are you going to the US to make an album this year?"

"I'm leaving in a couple of days, but I'll go to Paris first."

Shen Juan poured Xiao Hu a glass of orange juice to help her get rid of the childishness in her mouth, so as not to be judged strangely by the veteran foodies in the entertainment industry.

What are you going to Paris for?

"What else can I do? Shoot luxury brand ads!"

French luxury brands such as LV, Saint Laurent, Estée Lauder, L'Oréal, and Guerlain, upon hearing that Shen Juan was going abroad, all extended invitations to him to come to Paris to complete their opening season advertising shoots. They wanted to leverage Shen Juan's global influence and high-end image to help them defeat their respective competitors and seize more market share.

What style are you planning to explore in your new album?

"It's quite diverse, but mainly R&B."

"R&B again?"

“R&B and Hip-hop are the mainstream now.” Shen Juan carefully put the beef into the pot and casually explained, “Take the top five new generation male artists in North America as an example. Apart from Ed Sheeran, Bieber, The Plant, Duck and Mars all play R&B and Hip-hop. This already reflects the fact.”

Why is it so popular?

"Who knows? Maybe it's because of the rise of the retro trend? Maybe it's because these two are very inclusive and can be mixed with a lot of things, which is just right for them to feature? Or maybe it's something else. Anyway, as a singer, you just need to do your job well. You can't correct or change the aesthetic of an era."

After chatting for a short while, the other celebrities at the scene, seeing Shen Juan eating hot pot, gradually gathered around him.

Cheng He asked Shen Juan if he had been playing computer games lately, and Shen Juan said he had found an FPS game that hadn't been released in China yet to play.

"CS:GO? CF? Overwatch?"

“VALORANT”.

"What game is this?"

"A game of finding mom."

This guy is a veteran gamer.

I play all kinds of games.

In the future, they might even bring computers into the Mushroom House.

This gave Shen Juan an idea. He decided that after he returned to the Mushroom House, he would ask the production team to provide him with a computer to play games. Playing some two-player games with Xiao Tian would also be good for the show.

Da Zhangwei and Shen Juan chatted about the recording of the show.

Thanks to the excellent working relationship between Starlink and Hunan TV, Sister Tian recently recorded an episode of Detective.

And the results seem to be pretty good.

Anyway, both Teacher He and Da Zhangwei said that Sister Tian is very good at searching and talking, and is no less capable than Xiao Ye, who came to Detective earlier.

GAI, a leading figure in the hip-hop circle, even took out his phone to ask for a photo.

As it turns out, losing to Shen Juan back then was actually a good thing!

It could even be said that the two people who have contributed the most to the development of Chinese hip-hop are Wu Jiaheng and Shen Juan, these two outsiders.

The former, to some extent, propelled the creation of the show "The Rap of China" and brought sponsors and a lot of initial buzz to the program; the latter, by leveraging the show's popularity, went global and eventually became a true international star, greatly contributing to the development of the entire industry.

Pan Shuai glanced at the crowd surrounding Shen Juan, who was full of flatterers, and then looked at the deserted scene on his side. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

But there's not much to say.

After all, Shen Juan's global influence is undeniable.

Wherever he goes, he's the center of attention.

Even Lisa, the dance mentor he met a few days ago when recording Youth With You 3, seems to have a crush on Shen Juan.

so.
Okay, it just does affect his ability to eat.
With so many colleagues around, he felt he had to join in and chat briefly, otherwise it would seem very impolite.

"Hey Juan'er, didn't you film a movie in Shanghai before? When are you planning to release it?" Da Zhangwei asked with a smile.

Shen Juan had just finished his orange juice when Huang Minghao quickly came over and refilled it. He seemed a little nervous, but still replied calmly, "I don't know. Anyway, it won't be released anytime soon. After all, we can't cooperate with promotions overseas."

How long do you plan to stay abroad?

"Because I need to be quarantined for half a month after returning to China, I will stay for a longer period of time and will not waste time traveling back and forth."

Upon hearing this, Cai Xukun's eyes lit up.

As the saying goes, when the tiger is not in the mountain, the monkey becomes king.

He felt that Shen Juan's renewed foray into the US market, seemingly aimed at continuing his dominance in the domestic entertainment industry, was actually an opportunity for him.

After all, Xiao Zhan's reputation and public image have been completely ruined, and Wang Yibo and Yi Yangqianxi have been keeping a low profile lately.

So he plans to take advantage of Shen Juan's absence from the Chinese entertainment industry to do more marketing, attract more traffic, and acquire more resources that Shen Juan doesn't want.

Do everything you can to strengthen yourself, strive to defeat other top competitors, and fight for that position second only to the leader!

The party started soon.

Tonight's opening act is THE9, a limited-time girl group formed during Youth With You 2, and their song is "Sphinx".

Ancient Greek records describe a monster with the face of a man and the body of a sphinx.

Then the awards ceremony and performances alternated.

One group of guests after another took to the stage to perform, and one top celebrity after another went up to receive awards and give their acceptance speeches.

Just like last month's Tencent Star Awards, iQiyi has specially created a brand new award for Shen Juan this year.

A figure of international influence.

Standing on the stage, I received the trophy from the CEO.

Shen Juan glanced at the empty audience seats below the stage, and calmly said to the camera directly in front of him, "Thank you to the organizer, Kiwi, thank you to my fans, and thank you to every staff member of Starlink. This award is a shared honor, so I will put it in the company's trophy display room."

"Then, music knows no borders, and works are the best bridge. I think it is very meaningful to be able to let more people see the new era of China through my music, understand the culture and voice of China, and unite friends from different countries. It is also the responsibility that we, the creators of this generation, should fulfill."

"Next, I will devote myself to the production of the album and strive to bring you more excellent works. I will continue to let my works speak for themselves. So I hope you can keep an eye on my new album. In addition, I should also have a movie and a TV series that will be released this year."

"Okay, that's all, thank you everyone."
