Huayu has been doing one good deed a day since 2001

Chapter 256 The Ultimate Benchmark of the 00s for Being a Kept Man

May 17th is an auspicious day for weddings, moving, and moving into a new house.

Near the still-under-construction Bird's Nest stadium, along the Yangshan River.

Old Li stopped after running a full marathon, and a nanny van, which was hanging behind him on the main road, sped up.
Then Liu Shishi ran over carrying a bag, accompanied by Mao Xiaotong.

Until I got closer and saw Old Li wiping his sweat and drinking water, and then...

Mao Xiaotong watched as her junior brother proactively wiped Lao Li's legs and feet, and even took out new shoes and socks from his bag. She was both excited and incredulous, and gave an awkward laugh. "Senior brother, your physique is truly amazing."

"You're still so energetic and consistent after running a full marathon?"

She followed along in her van the whole time, and she did more than just run the full marathon.

That's faster than the Olympic champions, right? I don't know because I didn't time it.

But she felt that the whole marathon hadn't even lasted two hours, right?

As for Liu Shishi, she lives on the 11th floor of the Time Building, not the 12th floor.
It can only be said that Yang Mi was trying to win her over by inviting her out.

Then there are the occasional interactions between Yang Mi and her on the computer and mobile phone.

Some of the gossip has already spread far and wide.

Li Wenyu glanced at Xiaotong and said, "Don't be nervous. It doesn't mean anything to us if you offer to sign a contract of servitude."

"The path to becoming an actor still depends on talent and ability."

"Okay, you perform a crying scene for me. I only need to cry in five different emotions. The faster the better."

Target: Mao Xiaotong
Acting, (49/100).

Lines, (41/100).

Dance, (57/100).

……

Looking at Old Li, he almost laughed. It wasn't that his strength was too poor, but rather that it was beyond his expectations.

This girl has been studying at the Beijing Film Academy for a year, which is actually quite good progress.

When I first met Liu Shishi, she only had a basic level of 19/100.

Yang Mi showed great talent in her role as the youngest daughter in "The Tuner," but her acting skills were only around 40 points. She had to immerse herself in the script and character for several months before finishing the role.

He first met Alexandra, that foreign woman, in early January 2004.

The other person's acting skills were also (51/100), even though they had studied at a US vocational high school for two years.

Therefore, Mao Xiaotong, who is about to finish her freshman year at Beijing Film Academy, is already quite good with this level of ability.

Mao Xiaotong as I remember her?

After getting injections in my 30s, my face started to look a bit shriveled and stiff.

However, that is the most common side effect of many Western-style cosmetic injection packages.

There are too many people whose faces look terrible; Mao Xiaotong is just average.

Now at 18, she still has a face full of collagen, and her smile is really sweet.

In terms of acting skills, Mao Xiaotong has worked his way up to become a passable actor after many years.

At least in "Nothing But Thirty," no one was slapped in the face by a nursery rhyme like Jiang Shuying.

Honestly, this girl isn't Lao Li's type.

He's not attracted to that kind of looks; it's just a matter of personal taste.

But celebrities like Fat Bing, Li Jiaxin, and Megan Fox have eaten too much rich food.

It's quite pleasing to the eye to have a cute and sweet girl popping up around me.

This is the first time since Fat Bing took over as CEO that he has asked him to mentor a new person, which is a way of giving Fat Bing face.

Does Fat Bing think her background and family of origin are pitiful?
Having a father like that is truly awful.

Hearing his words, Mao Xiaotong nodded excitedly, and after a few seconds of hesitation, she started to cry.

Whether it's tears of surprise, sadness, despair, loneliness, or grief.

From tears of anger to...

This girl displayed five different emotional states in two minutes.

Liu Shishi clicked her tongue and said, "Not bad, Xiaotong. You've already figured things out before you even finished your first year of college. You might not be able to pass the test in film and television right away if you really go into it."

"But if it's a single character, it takes a year and a half of preparation and immersion."

"Then even a movie character would be so convincingly portrayed that it wouldn't be hard to believe."

Mao Xiaotong quickly wiped his eyes and, displaying high emotional intelligence, said some nice things to praise Liu Shishi.

Xiao Liu laughed heartily, "Stop it, let's stop with the mutual flattery. Whether it works out or not is up to your senior brother to decide."

Old Li laughed too, "Not bad, a 20-year contract, the company and you split the profits 60/40."

"When it gets light, go to Shishi and ask for the script for (The Winner Takes All), including the script for the sweet female lead."

"I'm not sure if it's winter or 2007 when filming starts, but I hope your Japanese can improve a bit."

He would also have Xiao Tong or Liu Shishi call Mao Xiaotong over for training when he was bored in the future.

Personally instructing and guiding individual actors in their acting skills?

It's been a while since I've done this.

Liu Shishi suddenly grinned mischievously, "Senior brother, should we send this message to Tang Yan separately? Let her experience the same kind of unforgettable horror that you gave me a few months before (Goblin) started filming?"

"She was replaced by Zhang Bozhi at the last minute in (Meet You), so she experienced pressure once."

"But it's definitely not as profound or exciting as it was for me back then."

Without major stimulation or pressure, how do you break through?
Even now, we occasionally exchange pleasantries with Lao Li.

She would still recall those terrifying years and bite elephants a few times to vent her anger.

Li Wenyu glared at Liu Shishi, then looked at Mao Xiaotong, "Whether you choose to go public or keep your signing a secret for now, it's up to you."

"I'm a designated person who mentors and guides actresses; the hype surrounding me is far too exaggerated."

"If the outside world knew that I was going to personally guide you for several months, and you still lost in the final competition (where the winner is justice)."

"This will also have a significant impact on you."

"Most of the time, I'll only see you outdoors in the middle of the night."

After saying that, Lao Li began to truly demonstrate his abilities as a great director, including his 100-point acting skills.

Let's analyze and evaluate Mao Xiaotong's five types of crying before, and identify any shortcomings or areas for improvement.

Some of the performances were really bad.

This includes asking about the specific events and feelings that occurred during the emotional build-up or emotional substitution process.

His directing and acting are both perfect, the pinnacle of human talent.

You don't need to borrow attribute points; just using your professional skills to guide someone is enough to give you an unfair advantage.

While teaching, Old Li suddenly remembered that Zhang Yimou, despite his advanced age, was still promoting a new "Zhang Yimou Girl" and had repeatedly pushed her forward.

Old Li almost shivered.

Fortunately, Mao Xiaotong in front of me is much more spirited than that little black flower.

Mao Xiaotong has better talent and a much more serious attitude.

It was a little past six in the morning.

Old Li drove his van to drop Mao Xiaotong off near the Beijing Film Academy.

As he set off again, he complained, "Since Sister Bingbing has become so soft-hearted, I've ended up being her babysitter again."

Liu Shishi laughed, "This junior sister's family is indeed quite bad. If you play with drones and robot dogs less, consider it a donation."

"Besides, working in front of machines is so boring."

"Bringing a sweet girl along is a good way to change your mood and feast your eyes."

Li Wenyu chuckled, "Fine, it's charity now."

If even Xiao Liu is like this, it just goes to show that Mao Xiaotong's family background makes people more kind-hearted.

…………

On the afternoon of the 17th.

Old Li is drawing a new version of a robot dog in the president's office.

This robot dog has an opening in its neck that exposes the muzzle of a gun.

Then there was a knock on the door.

Then Li Jiaxin walked in carrying a laptop and laughed, "Ayu, I'm dying of laughter, Jiang Qinqin's blind date is trending on social media."

"Not to mention ordinary netizens, the entertainment industry is also in an uproar."

"I wonder how many obscure male celebrities would want to cling to this long-legged beauty and live off her." Old Li, "..."

He put down his paintbrush and asked curiously, "They're still going on blind dates. They've been doing this since February or March, and it's already summer vacation."

The last time Sister Qinqin went on a blind date was before she went to play a minor role.

Li Jiaxin nodded, "This time it was the man who posted on Weibo, saying that although meeting Jiang Qinqin on a blind date felt like a dream, Qinqin didn't like him."

"But he was very grateful for the opportunity and was willing to pay 100 million out of his own pocket."

"We are offering 4 netizens and citizens in Sichuan a free screening of Jiang Qinqin's next movie (The Little Man)."

"This is a cinema owner from Sichuan, with twenty or thirty cinemas of six or eight screens under his name."

Old Li almost burst out laughing when he went to the bar to pour tea.

A small business owner of a chain of cinemas? Sure.

A scale of twenty or thirty companies can basically cover several prefecture-level cities and counties.

They wouldn't call themselves extremely wealthy, but they're certainly moderately well-off.

This even bizarrely touched upon the publicity efforts of ordinary people.

With just over a month left until the film's release, filming has already wrapped.

Post-production will take less than a month.

When he brought over two cups of tea, Ah Xin was still scrolling through Weibo.

On Weibo, celebrities such as Yanzi, Zhang Ziyi, Liu Tao, and Guo Biting are all interacting happily with @Qinqin's official verified Weibo account.

From Zhang Ziyi to Liu Tao and Hu Jing, they all said they wanted to introduce Jiang Qinqin to potential partners.

With Jiang Qinqin's current looks and net worth, she's definitely a multi-millionaire.

Super big sister, plus fair skin, beautiful face and long legs!
The ultimate fantasy object for countless young men who want to live off a woman.

In every industry and social circle, there are older men who take special care of younger women.

There are also older women who like to help young, handsome men.

Could a blind date be related to movie promotion?

The nobody has already made it into the top ten trending topics.

Countless netizens had no idea about this project before its official announcement; there had been no activity at all before.

What movie is "Little People"? The title is a bit strange, yet it's already trending in the top 20 on social media.

Old Li glanced at it a few times and chuckled, "This small cinema owner is also operating using business methods, isn't he? Trying to become a big internet celebrity?"

Li Jiaxin nodded repeatedly, "The other party gained tens of thousands of followers in a short period of time."

This is only the first day of the new topic.

The biggest influencer in Weibo's influencer program at this stage is still Wang Zixuan, after all, she's one of their own, Tong Liya's roommate.

Wang Zixuan has over 800 million followers and is the number one beauty influencer in East and Southeast Asia.

Currently, promoting a beauty brand can easily generate tens of thousands of yuan in revenue from a single advertisement.

The influencer economy has naturally entered the realm of Shiguang Video.

Time Video is evolving from static text and photos on Weibo to dynamic video content.

A number of bloggers who assemble computers and online influencers who promote mobile phone and digital camera brands have already emerged.

It's already common knowledge among countless netizens that online celebrities can make money by collaborating with the Time platform.

Old Li took a sip of tea. "Send a text message to Jiang Qinqin, asking her to take the opportunity to push down the small fry, and to get Ah Xing, Liu Yifei, and the others involved as well."

This is not Liu Yifei's film debut.

Even before signing the contract and before filming (The Return of the Condor Heroes).

She starred in "May Love" and "Love Winner," which was promoted by real estate developer Lao Chen.

However, the current version is the 06 version (The Return of the Condor Heroes), which continues the trend of pairing Hu Ge with Liu Yifei during the initial broadcast period.

The premiere is underway, and Liu Yifei's "Thick Blood Trilogy" is now complete.

The influence on the small screen continues to spread, with Yang Mi, one of the eight beauties chasing time, being a prime example.

The average viewership was 7.8%.

The chemistry between her and Hu Ge is highly praised by countless fans of the Legend of Sword and Fairy 1 series.

Li Jiaxin nodded, put her laptop away, and then took out her phone to send a message.

"Yanzi is talking to an Olympic gold medalist in table tennis. Could it be that she also wants to introduce such an athlete to Jiang Qinqin?"

"Table tennis players don't earn as much as Liu Xiang, but it seems alright."

Li Wenyu chuckled, "Let it be. In the following years, Qinqin was a stable third female lead in (The Big Bang). Learning English is like finding a gold mine."

In the third season of The Big Bang Theory, Huang Xiaoming's salary for the second male lead rose to $20 per episode.

Jiang Qinqin earns $10 per episode.

Nina Dobrev will receive $1 per episode for her role in the third season.

This has already been exposed and made public on Weibo.

The exorbitant salaries for horror films have also caused a stir both inside and outside the industry!
Actresses like Yanzi and Zhou Xun, who were among the top four young actresses, earn 10 RMB per episode for a TV series.

Yanzi's salary only increased to 100 million after she took on the movie (Painted Skin).

Jiang Qinqin starred in the third season of The Big Bang Theory in 07, which clearly propelled her to a pre-tax income of tens of millions for the entire series.

Advertising endorsements and commercial performances are even more lucrative tools.

Not only did she easily surpass Yanzi, she also left Liu Tao, Hu Jing, and Dong Yi, the first generation of older sister actresses, far behind.

Among the eight beauties of time, this one also easily suppressed Yang Mi and Huang Shengyi.

I'm asking you, such a stunning beauty.

In the months around 2006, I was running around on blind dates, using the internet across the country.
No, this news will definitely spread throughout Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand.

This is a seismic shock to the entertainment industries of both Japan and South Korea!

Masato Sakai, who played the lead role in "The Winner Takes All" in the 10s.

A film actor's salary is 2000 million yen, which is a little over 100 million yuan.

Only their salaries and commercial performances/endorsements are mentioned.

The Chinese entertainment industry completely overshadows that of South Korea and Taiwan.

…………

9th floor of Time Media.

Upon receiving the news, Liu Yifei, who was practicing martial arts, quickly stopped her routine practice and ran to post it on Weibo.

She tagged @JiangQinqin. Thank you, Sister Qinqin, for bringing so much buzz to the "Little People" drama crew. I wish Sister Qinqin success in her blind date soon and that she finds her perfect match.

In addition to the text post, Liu Yifei also shared a casual photo with Jiang Qinqin.

The cast of "Little People" had different cameo appearances at different times, so there was no group photo.

However, within the same company, Jiang Qinqin only moved to the 11th floor after the huge success of "The Temptation of Going Home".

With so many everyday moments, there are just too many opportunities to take a group photo.

After finishing his work, Xiao Liu quickly ran up to the 11th floor to eat some melon seeds.

19-year-old Xiao Liu is naturally not under any pressure to get married or go on blind dates. All she needs to do for the next ten years is make money and become famous.

However, I'm still quite amused and eager to see the older generation being pressured to get married.

When she got to the 11th floor, she found that Gao Yuanyuan and Zhang Bozhi were both standing in the public area of ​​the corridor.

After quickly greeting them, Liu Yifei exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Yuanyuan, Sister Zhi, are you two so gossipy too?"

At this point, Xiao Liu hurriedly apologized, slapped his mouth, and laughed awkwardly, "No, that's not what I meant, I was just curious..."

These two are truly among the Four Great Actresses.

Even though Zhang Bozhi is still an outsider signed with China Star, everyone in the industry knows it.

Ah Zhi and Li Wenyu actually have a pretty good relationship.

Ah Zhi and Dong Xuan are another kind of true best friends.

The sisterhood developed over two or three years of multiple collaborations.

Da Meiyuan was also holding a plastic box containing a fruit platter.

She handed one toothpick to Xiao Liu and nodded, saying, "Of course I'm curious. My parents have been urging me to try, but I refused. I just want to ask what it's like."

Ah Zhi almost burst out laughing, "You're so funny."
