The battle for traffic in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 166 Wouldn’t it be better to be honest?
After sending Zhen Huaiwei away, Sun Man curiously asked Xu Xing what he had talked to her about.

They looked relaxed and happy when they came, but were worried when they left.

She didn't doubt what Xu Xing had done to Zhen Huaiwei, although she could smell the alcohol on Zhen Huaiwei and knew that they had both been drinking.

Because if Xu Xing really takes action, it won’t be in such a short time, and the people above won’t be so quiet.

It didn't look like Xu Xing had attempted anything, Zhen Huaiwei's smile was still very kind.

"We talked about the issue of fans chasing stars. She was very worried about her daughter. Sister Niu forced her daughter to study abroad."

Xu Xing shrugged.

night.

Xu Xing had dinner with Jimmy Lovine, the founder of the Interscope label.

Lovine is an old-school guy who believes that free music is wrong and hopes that listeners will always pay for music.

Xu Xing’s fans are streaming the song on iTunes... at least they are paying for the music.

So the topic of this dinner was about the development of the music industry.

Of course, it was mainly Lovine who was talking and Xu Xing who was listening.

Therefore, it is essentially a group of old folks from the old times venting their grievances and praising Xu Xing's musical talent.

In his opinion, Xu Xing's downloads on iTunes, winning the number one single, and driving healthy growth in the number of plays of the single on streaming platforms have enabled Xu Xing, a non-mainstream Chinese musician, to achieve extraordinary success in the American music market. This is a typical example of the value of music being recognized through payment.

It is the support of paid music that makes it possible for Xu Xing's music to be respected by the market.

——Well, there was no mention of the free streaming chart on YouTube where Xu Xing first started out.

"Poor-quality music will also be eliminated in the regulation of the paid market."

This sentence is from Chris Wu who judged the failure of chart manipulation.

Friendly chat.

After finally venting his complaints, Lovine, feeling satisfied, asked.

“Will Shape of You generate even more amazing paid enthusiasm?”

"of course."

Xu Xing smiled and nodded.

……

On the way home, Xu Xing received a WeChat message from Zhang Junning.

She asked Xu Xing how the repair was going after a day.

Xu: [I’ve been busy all day and am just about to go home.]

Zhang: [I haven’t returned yet.]

Xu: [Yes.]

Zhang: [Have you had dinner?]

Xu: [I ate it.]

Zhang: [You are so honest. [Pouting]]

Xu: [Eating it won’t affect my next meal.]

Zhang: [[Covering mouth and laughing]]

Xu Xing didn't reply to her.

Zhang: [I booked a restaurant...]

Xu: [We will be photographed if we eat outside, so let’s go to your hotel or come to my villa.]

The opposite side showed five or six times that it was being typed.

Zhang: [Your villa! [Shocked]]

Xu: [Live in someone else's. ]

Then, she didn't send WeChat again until Xu Xing was about to return to the villa.

【You come to pick me up? 】

【it is good. 】

Xu Xing replied.

……

"I thought you would come pick me up in person."

After entering the room, Zhang Junning made a joke pitifully.

She was wearing a thin windbreaker, jeans and long boots, wrapping herself tightly.

After sitting down on the sofa, he did not take off his windbreaker.

The meaning should be that we just come here to have a pure chat.

Xu Xing felt quite bored, but still had a smile on her face.

"In that case we're just going for a drive."

In the following conversation, Zhang Junning took the initiative to introduce that she came to the United States this time to see an art exhibition, and also explained that she mentioned Huachenyu on the flight.

It was Hua Chenyu who took the initiative to greet her, and then she realized that he was also on the plane.

Then, she talked about Xu Xing's amazing development over the past year or so. While praising Xu Xing in various ways, she also interspersed her thoughts and considerations on her own development.

She was also surprised to say that she only recently learned about the close relationship between Zhengrong Film and Television and Xu Xing. When she acted in "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" and "The Legend of the Sea", Xu Xing did not reveal it.

It can be seen from the summary that she is socializing with a strong purpose, but she speaks very naturally, with little complaints and laughter, just like good friends chatting about each other's careers.

But the problem is that Xu Xing didn't feel that there was anything about Zhengrong Film and Television or herself that she particularly liked.

Then we talked about Xu Xing's order in the United States this time.

She talked about how she boasted about Xu Xing’s achievements in the United States in her circle and among her friends.

Chatting and chatting.

"But don't you have any plans to shoot a Chinese version of the MV for your new single?"

Zhang Junning asked with a smile.

Xu Xing, who happened to be checking messages on WeChat, looked up.

"Maybe, but not yet. When I was shooting the MV for the song "Love Yourself", I hadn't thought about coming to the U.S. to promote it, so I reshot the MV when I officially started promoting it."

The real purpose must have finally been revealed.

But Xu Xing didn't want to continue chatting with her.

Because the person who sent the WeChat message was actually Aunt Zhiling.

She still didn't give in to Xu Xing, and she just happened to come to the United States. Xu Xing is a pragmatic person.

"Oh," Zhang Junning nodded thoughtfully, "Then you——"

"Uh, sorry, Sister Ning," Xu Xing scratched his head, "My friend just sent me a message, asking me to go out for a drink. I didn't want to go, but she insisted that I go. It seems like she was drunk, so... let's talk about the MV tomorrow? If Sister Ning is interested."

"..." Zhang Junning was stunned for a moment, "I, I'm not..."

The expression was awkward and embarrassing.

She really didn't expect Xu Xing to react like this. They had always chatted so harmoniously before, and Xu Xing was very polite and sincere.

"I know."

Xu Xing smiled.

It made her even more embarrassed.

Know what...

Zhang Junning, feeling extremely complicated, bit her lip, slowly stood up, and prepared to leave.

Xu Xingdu gave the order to expel the guest so directly.

But unexpectedly, as soon as she moved her feet, her foot tripped and her body fell to the side uncontrollably.

She fell directly into Xu Xing's arms.

Xu Xing was very surprised. He never thought she could do this.

Zhang Junning blushed and was about to say sorry and get up from Xu Xing's arms.

however--

"Hmm~"

Xu Xing bent down and kissed her.

Zhang Junning opened her eyes wide, and she felt that she should try to break free, but before she made the decision to struggle, she suddenly realized what she was pressing on as she felt weak all over.

I sighed in my heart and closed my eyes.

Gradually began to respond.

The responses became increasingly intense.

And three minutes later, he exclaimed loudly.

Xu Xing is really...

……

If a person steps into two rivers at the same time in one day, he must wade across the second time.

What's more, when Ms. Zhen Huaiwei lost her balance and fell into his arms, Xu Xing knew that she really did not mean it and was really drunk.

Ms. Zhang Junning really made Xu Xing unbelievable, and she immediately made the decision to meet her needs.

And Xu Xing quickly thanked himself for this decision.

Ms. Zhang, who likes sports, has a really good feel to her. In particular, she has mastered the art of wanting to refuse but also to welcome.

When she first fell into his arms, she seemed to be struggling, and when he first kissed her, she was very passive. Then she was reluctant all the way but also welcomed her, allowing Xu Xing to realize the complaints he had in his heart when he first saw her come in.

You like wearing windbreakers, right? You like wearing jeans, right? You like wearing long boots, right? You like wrapping yourself up tightly, right?
Then...Xu Xing likes it too.

Interesting.

It was a contrast that Xu Xing had not expected before.

I originally thought it would take at least several times before they would agree to play this way.

The goddesses from the island province are having so much fun!

Xu Xing approved it!
Then--

"Xu Xing, why are you like this?"

Just as the halftime ended, Ms. Zhang Junning, with messy hair, looked extremely sad.

When Xu Xing helped her tidy up her hair, her eyes were red, as if she was about to cry.

"Uh, Sister Ning, don't you like your reaction as well?"

Xu Xing couldn't help but complain.

"..."

Zhang Junning had a look of despair on her face.

Let Xu Xing free her from her restraints and carry her to take a bath.

She calmed down again.

"No matter what you think, I really didn't fall on purpose. And I really didn't expect you to be such a person, so... I don't know how to say it. I am interested in acting in the MV, but if you think I'm not suitable, you can refuse. Isn't there a normal audition?"

Ms. Zhang Junning felt very aggrieved.

"If I knew you were so sensitive, I would never say anything. We can just chat occasionally like we used to. I really thought you were an excellent and self-disciplined person, but I didn't expect... Is there no normal friendship between men and women?

"That's it for this time, it was just an accident, I'll be leaving soon. Pretend I never told you about the MV incident. I care a lot about what other people think, and I can't accept you looking at me like that."

"Shall we be honest?"

Xu Xing was also convinced.

"You came here today and you're ready, aren't you? Just think of it as me wanting to sleep with you all the time, isn't that enough? And you obviously have feelings for me, we're normal adults, so what's wrong with sleeping together? Then let me ask you, why didn't you push me away when I kissed you?"

"...You bastard!" Zhang Junning was angry, "From the first time we met, I felt that you..."

"You admit that you were ready when we first met." Xu Xingzhen smiled, "Look at you now, you haven't stopped yet."

“…No, I, I…”

"It's nice to be relaxed and happy, isn't it?"

"..."

Zhang Junning pursed her lips.

"You must be very tired like this, just hold me."

Xu Xing suggested.

She bit her lip again, looked at Xu Xing, held Xu Xing's shoulders, and slowly leaned into Xu Xing's arms.
