Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 281, Zhang Long: Qi Hui, keep an eye on Xiao Yu for me.
However, before Qi Hui could make a move, someone called out to him:
"Qi Sheng, hello, hello!"

Qi Hui looked in the direction of the sound, and the first thing that caught his eye was a big nose, followed by a tall, long-legged, charming and beautiful girl next to him.

Finally, there's Jackie Chan's face.

"Is this our first meeting?" Cheng Long nodded slightly and shook hands with Qi Hui.

"Hello, Uncle Long," Qi Hui said with a smile. "This is your first time meeting me, but it's not my first time meeting you."

"I grew up watching your movies."

"Hahaha..." Cheng Long laughed loudly, a hint of smugness appearing between his brows.

He liked Qi Hui very much. At least Qi Hui wasn't like other young people who just stared longingly at Hollywood, wanting to make a name for themselves there.

"They all call me Brother Cheng Long, so why do you call me Uncle Long?" Cheng Long laughed and then asked.

Zhang Lanxin watched the two talking with a smile, her eyes shining, and she liked Qi Hui more and more as she looked at him.

He's so handsome, smells amazing, and looks so strong and powerful...

"Wouldn't calling me that help you remember me?" Qi Hui laughed. "Hi, Uncle Long."

"Hahaha..." Jackie Chan laughed: "Then how about you keep an eye on Xiaoyu for me?"

Of course he knew that Qi Hui was making a reference to "Jackie Chan Adventures".

Qi Hui looked troubled: "That won't do. If you can't even keep an eye on them, how can I?"

"Hahaha, you're really funny," Jackie Chan laughed. "I invited you to act in 'Chinese Zodiac,' why didn't you come?"

"I was training in the military at the time." Qi Hui coughed lightly and made up a story on the spot: "I was preparing to act in a Marine Corps play."

He had just gotten his hands on the script for "Fire Blue Blade" and hadn't even started acting yet.

The reason I didn't act in it was because the role offered in "Chinese Zodiac" was too low-level. Not only was I ranked below Jackie Chan, but I was also ranked below a South Korean actor.

Moreover, that character was just a background character throughout the entire series, not only lacking any highlights but also failing to have any fight scenes.

Qi Hui naturally had no interest.

Upon hearing Qi Hui's words, Cheng Long was taken aback, but did not delve into it further.

"This is Zhang Lanxin, a rising martial arts actress," Cheng Long introduced the girl beside him.

He is not a professionally trained actor, but rather a graduate of the Beijing Sports University, where he practiced Taekwondo.

"Chinese Zodiac" was her screen debut, and it has to be said that her long legs were very eye-catching and unforgettable.

Before his transmigration, Qi Hui had only read "The Twelve Zodiac Animals" once.

The second time I saw Zhang Lanxin on screen was probably on "Running Man".

But at that moment, Qi Hui immediately thought of Zhang Lanxin.

"Hello." Qi Hui nodded and smiled: "Your performance in 'Chinese Zodiac' was excellent, and your martial arts moves were very cool."

"Thank you, I've seen your work too." Zhang Lanxin smiled brightly: "Every character you portray is memorable."

"Especially Xiao Zhuang and Jiang Xiaoyu, they portrayed soldiers to the fullest."

"Let's exchange contact information..."

She really likes soldiers and men who are stronger than her.

Qi Hui is both handsome and strong, which is exactly her criteria for choosing a partner.

A few years later, when Zhang Lanxin participated in a military-themed variety show, she developed some feelings for her team leader.

She was always the most enthusiastic when the military organized social gatherings.

"Alright." Qi Hui nodded, and the two exchanged contact information.

……

After parting ways with Cheng Long, Qi Hui scanned the surroundings, continuing his search for internet moguls.

I was delayed for a moment, I'll continue now.

"Brother Qi Hui, why are you all alone?"

But before Qi Hui could act, a charming woman's voice came over.

Following the sound, they found it was Gan Wei.

Qi Hui and she met at the premiere of "The Warring States" and exchanged contact information.

Of course, we didn't keep in touch much after that.

At that time, she and Qin Lan surrounded Qi Hui with beautiful women, which made Jing Tian furious.

This time, however, she wasn't with Qin Lan, but with her husband—that Mr. Jia who always says he'll be back in China next week.

Jia Yueting will be returning to China next week. His dreams are suffocating and inexplicable. His PPT presentations are full of empty promises, and the stock price has risen only to fall to zero again!

If I remember correctly, many actors in the entertainment industry have lost a lot of their wealth because of Mr. Jia.

Among them, Liu Tao suffered the most. She finally helped her husband pay off his debts, but then lost money investing in LeEco, and was back to square one.

"Haha, Sister Gan Wei, long time no see," Qi Hui laughed and said.

"This is my husband," Gan Wei introduced.

"Hello, Mr. Jia... Boss." Qi Hui originally wanted to say President Jia, but it sounded like he was a bastard, so he quickly changed his address.

"My wife has told me about you, and I've seen your shows too," Mr. Jia said with a smile. "Love is Not Blind is very good, and I also like Fire Blue Blade."

"Thank you." Qi Hui smiled and nodded.

"I heard you're thinking of making a web series?" Boss Jia changed the subject, asking, "What kind of web series is it?"

The video website sector is currently experiencing fierce and brutal competition.

Large-scale purchases and acquisitions occurred frequently, even more frenzied than those of the coal bosses of yesteryear.

His LeEco is doing fairly well, but he needs to quickly restructure, otherwise he could easily be forced out of the market.

In fact, in a few months, LeEco will spend a lot of money to acquire Huayi Brothers Media, the company that produced "Empresses in the Palace".

They acquired the exclusive rights to "Empresses in the Palace".

The total cost, including cash and equity payments, amounted to a staggering 9 million yuan.

The scale of the project was considerable.

Of course, the returns are also fantastic.

A few years later, LeTV will purchase the copyright of "The Legend of Mi Yue" for 2 million yuan per episode, for a total price of about 200 million yuan.

Even after Mr. Jia went abroad, his employees continued to live a fulfilling life thanks to "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and "The Legend of Mi Yue".

As for Mr. Jia... the employees hope he will always return to China next week.

Qi Hui raised an eyebrow. So well-informed?
Xiao Yang had only submitted the script for review not long ago.

However, Qi Hui also became interested and immediately smiled and said:
"A suspenseful detective web series, about ten episodes long, with a tight plot and twists and turns, filmed at the pace of a movie."

Mr. Jia nodded, but he wasn't very interested; he preferred long-running TV dramas.

For example, "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

Mr. Jia wasn't interested, so the conversation naturally couldn't continue.

Looking at Qi Hui's evening suit, Gan Wei felt that beneath the velvet suit lay a violent power.

She wanted to say more, but with her husband there, she certainly couldn't talk to Qi Hui about anything else.

Watching the two leave, Qi Hui felt somewhat regretful.

LeTV is actually a good target; they're willing to spend money on TV dramas.

The main selling point is that someone is naive and rich.

Moreover, a few years later, when LeEco was in turmoil, Jia Yueting went abroad, and Qi Hui started doing things... such as reclaiming copyrights, it was much easier for him.

Unfortunately, Mr. Jia didn't give him a chance.

"Let's hold a screening after it's filmed..." Qi Hui thought to himself. "I'll invite the big names from major video websites to watch it. I don't believe they won't be interested."

Qi Hui thought to himself, then turned around to find an internet mogul to have a chat.

Qi Hui found his champagne glass empty and went to the bar to get another one.

I happened to run into a middle-aged woman. She had short hair, looked a bit old, had a wide, square face, and a capable demeanor.

Qi Hui recalled that this person should be one of Baidu's vice presidents, but he forgot his name.

However, I still remember her identity, because she is one of the few female bosses.

However, when the woman saw Qi Hui, she frowned.

He made no attempt to hide his impatience, then turned and left.

They didn't even give Qi Hui a chance to say hello.

Qi Hui was stunned for a moment, picked up the spoon next to him and looked at it, but he didn't find anything wrong with his face.

Is there something wrong with my appearance?
Why did this vice president react differently from Gan Wei and Zhang Lanxin?
"Hahahaha..." A middle-aged man wearing square-framed glasses laughed heartily, thoroughly enjoying himself.
