Abstract Art Award Winner

Chapter 163 Zhou Le's acting skills, I learned frame by frame
They are just going to hold a Chinese-style wedding here, in addition to Chinese-style food, decoration and etiquette.

Huang Xiaoming also wanted some Chinese elements.

"Brother Le can play the suona!"

Wang Junkai raised his hand to sign up for Zhou Le.

"I have no problem. I can play 'Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix' on the suona, right?" Zhou Le added, "I can play the wedding part."

"No problem, I can play the piano." Wang Junkai also raised his hand.

After all, the performance group can do less work.

Huang Xiaoming will be the master of ceremonies, and the rest of the people will be waiters and kitchen helpers.

After the evening business is closed, they begin to plan how to set up the scene, and everyone is assigned tasks, such as who will help in the store and who will go out to purchase.

In the end, it was decided that except for Zhou Le, Wang Junkai and Qin Hailu, the rest of the people would stay in the store.

They set out early the next morning.

They want to buy flowers, stickers, red cloth and so on.

"Sister Hailu will be in charge of paying the bill, and we two will communicate."

Qin Hailu was naturally happy and relieved.

After all, communicating in a foreign country is the most troublesome thing.

"Brother Le, can you come in with me later?"

Zhou Le: "Of course, don't worry, I'm a man of loyalty and friendship."

And then, Wang Junkai also understood what Zhou Le meant by valuing friendship and loyalty.

If the person opposite was a young and pretty girl, Zhou Le would always pat Wang Junkai on the back and say, "Go ahead."

If he meets a man or an older woman, Zhou Le will directly say let me do it.

"Brother, you really are my brother!"

Wang Junkai was very happy.

Coming back it was another busy day.

The wedding went smoothly.

When Wang Junkai played the piano and guitar, the audience was very excited.

But it wasn't until Zhou Le came on stage and played the suona that the whole place became lively.

So much so that after Zhou Le finished playing "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix", the newlyweds' friends felt unsatisfied.

Then Zhou Le played classic wedding songs such as "Bridal Chamber", "Getting on the Bridal Sedan", "The Female Prime Minister", "Beauty by the Lonely Lamp", and "Celebration".

After each performance, the people below were afraid that Zhou Le didn’t understand Italian, so they all shouted “aGAIn!” loudly.

“Who says China doesn’t have its own rock music?”

"It would be more interesting if we added guzheng, pipa and drum."

Zhou Le’s only regret now is that the program team did not invite Zhao Benshan’s apprentice.

Those guys are just all-rounders.

He is proficient in playing all kinds of musical instruments and singing.

After the wedding, Zhou Le had almost finished taking photos here, and they went out for dinner in the evening.

When Zhou Le asked how to shoot the footage for that night, the director directly said that they could just skip it and go back to shoot a meeting shot in the evening.

Zhou Le felt that this variety show was actually a bit of a failure.

Although it will definitely be popular if it is filmed in this way now, after it is broadcast, the only person who will be truly famous is Huang Xiaoming.

At most, we can add the pitiful Chef Lin.

It’s not like “Running Man” or “Go Fighting”, where everyone is very distinctive and has a sense of presence.

Although lifestyle variety shows themselves are somewhat bland, it is precisely for this reason that such deliberate conflicts and contradictions appear very strange.

Huang Xiaoming wanted to have the final say by taking advantage of the program team's script, but he was also prepared to clarify things later.

To say that the character is real.

Then you have to watch "A Longing for Life".

Maybe the plot may be acted out, but in terms of character setting.

Teacher Huang was not acting or pretending at all, he was just being himself on screen.

You can never imagine what kind of weird PUA and obedience test ideas Teacher Huang will come up with next.

However, it was morning when we left for home, and it was still morning when we arrived.

I went home and had a good sleep.

When I woke up, Su Yingxia had already prepared dinner.

"Brother Le, there's actually a Chanel dinner coming up. Do you want to go? Xiao Meng told me about this a while ago."

Zhou Le thought for a moment and said, "I won't go for this one. Although I'm not afraid, there's no need. Even if I want to eat for free, I can't really do it based on people's moods. Wouldn't that make me a real beggar?"

"Too."

Zhou Le was eating dinner. Although the food tasted good, he just couldn't feel happy.

After all, from tomorrow until the New Year, I basically won’t have a single day to rest.

Early the next morning, Zhou Le went to Yuanqi Forest first.

Because the other party was the sponsor of Bilibili's New Year's Eve Gala, and happened to know that Zhou Le was going to be there, they decided to invite Zhou Le as the spokesperson after internal discussion.

The content of the contract is relatively relaxed, as long as Zhou Le does not endorse other retail beverages during the contract period.

This naturally does not include freshly made coffee and milk tea that are mainly franchised or directly operated.

This is also what Su Yingxia clearly mentioned.

Wearing a light-colored suit, Zhou Le felt that he looked quite decent.

The only downside is that the white suit is a bit see-through.

Especially pants.

"Luckily I wore light-colored underwear today, otherwise my underwear would have been seen through."

Su Yingxia pinched Zhou Le's clothes and said, "I didn't expect the material of the clothes they made was so bad."

"Haha, it's okay. I was just saying, Zhang Yixing is also endorsing a pants brand. I saw it once when I went to the mall. To be honest, it was a bit eye-catching."

Su Yingxia smiled and said, "That would be a benefit for the fans. If no one cares, they can move the poster back and put it on the bedside table in their bedroom."

"It's a bit scary." Zhou Le shuddered.

Su Yingxia thought of something that happened two years ago.

"Brother Le, you're right, some people really think that celebrities sleeping with their fans is a fan benefit."

Zhou Le also remembers this.

Although many fans of artists do think so, this statement does not conform to mainstream social values, so he was criticized a lot at the time.

Finally, he shook his head: "My principle is actually that it's consensual, but fans are not allowed to touch, no matter how good-looking they are, unless you're aiming for marriage. Although I haven't encountered that, this is the principle."

Su Yingxia actually likes this about Zhou Le.

Although he is sentimental, at least he is not promiscuous.

Everyone in the circle who is not married is willing, but it is different outside the circle.

As an agent, the first thing I have to think about is that Zhou Le must not lose his reputation because of this kind of thing.

What if there’s a mature-looking girl under fourteen sneaking in?

That life is over.

After all, some people really do set up this kind of trap on purpose.

After finishing the filming at Yuanqi Forest, Zhou Le immediately went to Xiamen.

What we are going to film here is Luckin Coffee.

As a coffee brand that was just launched last year, although some people still think that Luckin is too low, Starbucks still has to be looked at for real face.

But Zhou Le felt that there was nothing comparable to this thing.

It costs thirty or forty yuan for a cup, isn’t it just soy milk?

It's just coffee beans.

Luckin Coffee is also very generous.

Among the brands Zhou Le has come into contact with, the only ones that can compare with these food companies are Internet technology companies.

It was just after filming the commercial that the other party took Zhou Le to visit the store.

Zhou Le ordered a cup of iced coffee on the spot.

Then he watched helplessly as the other person poured half a cup of ice into the glass.

"Well, have we always been so generous with our ice cubes?"

Zhou Le asked.

"Well, it's mainly for the taste."

Zhou Lexin believed it.

Of course, it's just a superficial belief.

But when he searched online, he found that most people who bought Luckin Coffee used coupons.

Drink if you have a coupon.

When I don’t have coupons, I’d rather drink the three-in-one hand-brewed coffee.

And everyone’s standard is that anything over ten yuan is expensive.

But he still remembers that during the conversation, the other party said that Luckin Coffee is expected to go public in May next year.

Zhou Le calculated the time. If it is next May, then it will only take eight months to go on the market?
The legendary e-commerce platform Pinduoduo took three years to develop.

At that time, Luckin Coffee also said that as long as Zhou Le did not collapse and as long as Zhou Le was willing to renew the contract, they could continue to sign.

Each contract renewal can be based on Zhou Le’s value at that time.

As for the reason.

This is because Zhou Le’s fan base highly overlaps with Luckin’s users.

The second reason is related to future business plans.

But Zhou Le didn't ask what the specific business plan was.

After all, the executives in charge don’t know either, they only know that it was a decision from above.

Anyway, the boss’s requirement is to keep Zhou Le, so it doesn’t matter if he spends more money.

Luckin Coffee filmed for three days.

Then I went to shoot an advertisement for Yadi.

The reason is the same, the user groups are highly overlapping.

After three consecutive commercials, Zhou Le's card had an unprecedented amount of cash flow. A full 40 million!
But Zhou Le asked the company's finance department to calculate it again.

Set aside a portion of the tax for next year's tax payment, and then set aside the bonuses to be given to everyone at the end of the year and the company's wages for next year.

In the end, only four million was left.

But at least Zhou Le felt at ease with these millions.

"No, I have to take out some more to prepare for next year's racing." So Zhou Le took out another three million.

"No, that leaves one million?"

Zhou Le: “.”

I had originally wanted to save some money to buy a few more suits to wear in public.

But if I buy it now, I will have no money left.

“I really knocked!”

Is it so difficult to save some money?

While thinking this, Zhou Le also finished recording the official B station New Year's Eve party.

Then I went to participate in iQiyi Scream Night.

But this time, Chunchun is here to accompany me.

The seats are at the edge of the table.

There was a whole table full of rap buddies.

After all, the C-position table is full of industry leaders, such as Han Sanping, Wang Zhonglei, and Feng Xiaogang, and the next ones are Jin Dong, Yang Mi, and Zhao Liying.

The rest of Wu Yifan, tfboys and others have to line up at the back.

Zhou Le was sitting at the table, staring at those rap buddies.

Everyone can call out their names.

Just sitting here, Zhou Le felt like he was sitting in the middle of a gang.

Rolling up his sleeves, he's got tattoos all over his body.

The collar is loose and it is also covered with tattoos.

Although Zhou Le was sitting in the C position.

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Le took out sunglasses from his pocket and put them on.

Several rap buddies were stunned.

"Brother Le, why are you wearing sunglasses in the dark?"

Zhou Le smiled and said, "I think the elder brothers all have extraordinary temperaments, so I have to wear sunglasses to better match their temperaments."

"Hahaha, Brother Le is really so abstract." VAVA applauded and laughed, her dreadlocks swinging back and forth, very lively. But after saying that, she asked Zhou Le, "Brother Le, do you recognize me?"

Zhou Le nodded: "I recognize her, China's number one female rapper."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone at the table laughed.

The rapper was a little embarrassed.

"I don't know much, but I did hear someone say that about you."

Zhou Le is just a little innocent.

We chatted for a while, and just as GAI said that they could sing songs together later, Nazha came over.

Among this group of people, she only knows GAI.

And the other person was sitting next to Zhou Le.

"Um, Mr. GAI, can I switch seats with you? I'm at table four, please."

"no problem!"

GAI changed it on the spot.

After all, the cake over there is obviously more delicious.

But those who stayed didn't feel that they were at a disadvantage.

After all, this is Naza!
From now on, I can brag about having dinner at the same table with Nazha!

They had just greeted Nazha when Jin Dong also came over.

He simply felt that Zhou Le shouldn't be sitting here given his current fame. It just so happened that although he knew the people at his table, their relationship was average.

There aren’t any really big bosses, but most of them are traffic stars.

So he ran over to support Zhou Le.

After all, Noon Sunshine still retains Zhou Le’s project. In the final analysis, everyone is still a family.

So VAVA was also replaced.

At this time, the style of the painting on the table began to become a little strange.

As a result, within a few minutes, the remaining rap buddies had just taken a group photo.

Xu Zheng and Huang Bo also ran over.

Because "Dying to Survive" and "A Good Show" also want to win awards, Xu Zheng definitely wants to sit with his own people.

And at their table, the biggest guests were just the two of them.

"Why do I feel like this scene seems familiar?"

Nazha thought for a moment and said, "Weibo Movie Night, you were excluded that night and were placed at the back. It was the same then, everyone came to look for you."

Xu Zheng was amused: "Zhou Le, I've noticed that you have an aura wherever you go. You're naturally the center of attention."

Zhou Le quickly waved his hands: "I'm still far from being a halo. If I'm an 8W light bulb, then Brother Zheng is the Audi high beam headlight."

Huang Bo: "Haha, as soon as it appears, all the chickens in the village crow."

Xu Zheng laughed for a long time before asking, "Tell me about the rooster's crow?"

It will be a while before the wait begins.

Just as Zhou Le was expecting, Lu Han finally arrived.

He really couldn't sit at the same table with Wu Yifan.

I don’t know what to say if I want to chat, but it would be awkward if I don’t say anything.

When Lu Han arrived, Guan Xiaotong naturally followed.

Suddenly, all the rappers at this table went to the front row.

But for these people, it doesn’t matter where they sit, because wherever they are will definitely be the focus.

"Le'er, do you know that you have been banned by some people in Taiwan?"

Zhou Le: "???"

"You can't be so petty, right?"

"Who can say for sure? You'll know next time you go. Why don't you apply and give it a try?"

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether you go or not. It will definitely be unobstructed in the future." Zhou Le is very optimistic about this.

At least I will definitely see such a day in my lifetime.

Then iQiyi Scream Night began.

The so-called Scream Night is actually the same as Weibo Night, and it is hard to say which one is more valuable.

But in terms of traffic, it still cannot compare with Weibo.

Keai iQiyi is a To C platform, so overall, they are actually not much different.

Lu Han was the first to stand up and receive the award.

The winner is directly named Asia's All-Round Artist.

But for those who know the business, this kind of award means that the so-called all-round artist is actually incompetent.

The ones that are truly valuable are in vertical fields.

The more vertical the better.

Then one after another, people Zhou Le knew came on stage.

Huang Xiaoming, Zhao Liying, Xu Zheng, Zhou Dongyu, Huang Bo, Guan Xiaotong, Jin Dong.

The camera frequently turns this way.

Every time they go on stage, the people at this table hug each other.

"Haha, things seem to be getting a bit heated. Zhou Le is the only one at the table who hasn't gone up?"

"That's true, but Zhou Le isn't bad either, is he? Honestly, Bai Lu, Xu Kai, Ju Jingyi, and others who were able to go on stage before were all able to do so. iQiyi was a bit awkward this time, calling people up but not giving them any awards. With Zhou Le's acting skills, I'm afraid he's no worse than those who went on stage."

"It's okay. There's also the Tencent Starlight Awards in January. Whatever Zhou Le doesn't get here, he'll definitely get at Tencent."

People were talking a lot.

At the dinner party afterwards, Zhou Le's seat was moved forward, not knowing whether the staff had received some feedback immediately or had made arrangements in advance.

"That's right." Zhou Le was very satisfied.

Guli Nazha, who was also assigned to the same table, smiled and said, "Why, are you feeling happy about being valued?"

Zhou Le shook his head: "No, I thought those snacks at the award ceremony were dinner. I almost starved to death this evening."

"You only know how to eat. There are so many big guys here today. We can find a chance to chat with them later. I'm sure they all want to talk to you."

"Let's look back later."

After three rounds of drinks, Zhou Le also started to visit tables and chat and toast with his acquaintances.

The first one to come was the boss's table.

Bigwigs from China Film, Huayi, Noon Sunshine, iQiyi and other companies are all there.

"Come on, let me introduce you. This is Zhou Le, a former actor at Noon. Although we disbanded the artist management department not long after signing, we still have a partnership."

Mr. Hou, the CEO of Noon Sunshine, pulled Zhou Le over and said with a smile.

Xu Zheng didn't even have a chance to speak.

"Hello everyone, I'm Zhou Le, but President Hou is also speaking on my behalf. Noon Sunshine gave me so much help back then. It can be said that without Noon Sunshine, I wouldn't be where I am today. President Hou is the guiding light on my career path."

Zhou Le said modestly.

"You're a good guy. I've heard my daughter talk about you. You're quite good, especially in 'Dying to Survive'. I never had the chance to meet you before, but now I finally get to meet you."

"Mr. Han, you're too kind. I'm actually still a newcomer and have a lot to learn from Brother Zheng. It was Brother Zheng who guided me when we were filming."

Zhou Le mentioned Xu Zheng again.

Because he knew that Han Sanping's daughter was actually Han Jianu. After all, their relationship was so strong that he would not miss her in his conversations.

But the two met because of Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng saw that Zhou Le also mentioned himself.

"No, no, Zhou Le is a genius. I actually didn't say anything. It's just his acting. Really, I can't say anything about others, but even I have to study it frame by frame."
