Entertainment: Since 1990

Chapter 169 Boss Cao's Secrets to Picking Up Girls

Cao Jian, who is in the music industry, had also heard that Warner Music had great ambitions in the past two years and was constantly recruiting new talent.

Not only did they poach Andy Lau, but they also signed Aaron Kwok, Sally Yeh, Zhang Yusheng, and Lin Yilian, so it's not surprising that they poach themselves now.

However, I do not have any plans to leave PolyGram for the time being.

The main thing is that the company treated me well and didn't restrict me much, so I had a lot of freedom.

He does like money, but he doesn't want to be tied down.

Although Cao Jian refused to recruit him, Warner quickly sent over a check for 30 million NT dollars.

Now that Cao Jian has the money, let Warner do the rest. Hopefully, they'll make a huge mess of Fuji Television.

After leaving Warner Music, Wang Zuxian sat in the car, looking at Cao Jian: "I didn't expect you to be so sentimental."

"What? You've fallen for me?"

"a little bit."

Wang Zuxian did not deny it.

She also likes people who value relationships, and after watching the video Cao Jian filmed, she was impressed by his sense of justice and his willingness to stand up for Beyond when he went to Japan on business.

"Only a little bit?"

Based on this little bit of liking, Cao Jian directly and unceremoniously put his arm around Wang Zuxian's waist and laughed, "I like you a lot."

Wang Zuxian wasn't bothered by being hugged around the waist; he even laughed and said, "After I finish dealing with this, there might be a lot more."

"How can a pheasant be paired with a phoenix if I don't say so?"

How did you know I thought that?

Wang Zuxian was taken aback. How did he know what he had been thinking?

"My guess."

Cao Jian laughed and said, "However, if you agree to make a cameo appearance in one of my dramas, I don't mind."

"Then you still mind, right?"

Although Wang Zuxian said this, he was actually already somewhat inclined to support Cao Jian.

She thought for a moment and said, "I'll help you out when I have time."

"Great."

When Cao Jian heard that the most beautiful ghost had agreed to make a cameo appearance in the TV series, he was completely certain that winning her over and becoming a ghost knight was only a matter of time.

After finishing his business, Cao Jian spent the afternoon shopping with this woman, just like a couple on a date.

Besides being good at talking, you also need to spend time with women when you're trying to woo them.

This is precisely the "leisure" element from the "Pan, Lu, Deng, Xiao, Xian" formula for picking up girls.

While playing video games at the arcade, Cao Jian unexpectedly discovered that the game "Cadillacs and Dinosaurs" was very popular.

I just don't know when "The King of Fighters" will be released. Once filming is finished, I'd like to go to the US to check it out.

It's estimated that filming for "Titanic" has already started; I wonder if there's a chance to snag a role in it.

The two had another dinner, and logically, they should have gotten a hotel room to rest.

But Wang Zuxian told Cao Jian to wait a little longer, saying that his own affairs were not yet resolved.

"Then I wait for you."

Cao Jian wasn't in a hurry. Although he coveted the number one beauty in Asia, he knew that if he acted too hastily, it might backfire.

However, when he said goodbye, he hugged Wang Zuxian tightly and wouldn't let go, even pouting, "I can wait, but you have to get the stamp, otherwise I won't let you leave."

Good women are afraid of persistent suitors, and Cao Jian knew this well.

Especially when you're young, acting cute is the most effective way to deal with older women, as it easily arouses their maternal instincts.

You're always embarrassed to ask for anything, and you'll never get a hot meal.

As expected, this tactic worked very well for Wang Zuxian; she had never experienced love like this before.

He pretended to be helpless and gave Cao Jian a light kiss on the lips, then smiled and said, "Are you satisfied now?"

Cao Jian returned the kiss, feeling the moist and delicate texture of her cherry lips, and said with satisfaction, "That's more like it."

After watching Wang Zuxian go home, Cao Jian prepared to return to the hotel.

On the way, he laughed and said, "It's not that I'm fast at picking up girls, it's that I'm shameless. Comrades, singles should take note."

The next morning, a major news story appeared in major newspapers in Taiwan, and even some newspapers in Hong Kong published the story.

That is, Huang Jiaju participated in a program in Japan, but due to the irresponsibility of the program team, Huang Jiaju fell from a high platform and broke one leg.

Meanwhile, Huang Jiaju's record label, Warner Music, is preparing to sue Japan's Fuji Television, seeking 300 million yen in damages. "What the hell? 300 million yen? That's outrageous!"

When Cao Jian took Li Xiaoran to TTV, he saw this news and was shocked.

But then I thought about it again, and it made sense.

If you claim 300 million, the final judgment might only reduce it by half.

Smart and capable.

However, this news immediately caused a huge uproar in the Chinese music scene.

Beyond has many fans, and some people are still moved by their music even if they don't understand Cantonese.

Many fans spontaneously traveled to hospitals in Japan to visit Wong Ka-kui, causing airfares to Tokyo to rise.

However, the videotape provided by Cao Jian has not been released yet. It is estimated that Warner is planning to use it as a trump card, after all, Cao Jian took 30 million from them.

After reading the newspaper, Cao Jian arrived at the TTV Building.

"Xiaoran, relax and don't be afraid. You're so beautiful. This audition is just a formality."

"Brother, am I really pretty?"

"Be confident, you are very beautiful."

Seeing that the little girl was still nervous, Cao Jian patted her head, trying to comfort her.

The head pat, coupled with the compliment on her beauty, made Li Xiaoran very happy, and she really wanted Cao Jian to pat her head a few more times.

Upon arriving at the preparation office for "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber," where the producer, director, and others were present, Cao Jian asked Li Xiaoran to introduce herself in front of everyone.

Before the little girl could even speak, her outstanding appearance and radiant white skin stunned everyone present.

No wonder Cao Jian recommended this person to play Zhu Jiuzhen. Although the girl looks young, her appearance and complexion are a perfect match for the Snow Ridge Twins.

“Mr. Cao, you are indeed a director. Recommending this girl is no problem.”

There was no audition; they just glanced at the actor, and everyone agreed on the choice.

"My brother is amazing. He said it was just a formality, and he was right."

But Li Xiaoran attributed all the credit to Cao Jian, and held her sworn brother in even higher regard.

In the original novel, Zhu Jiuzhen and Zhang Wuji also have a flirtatious scene, which makes Li Xiaoran look forward to the filming process.

But it's not over yet.

After deciding on the actress for Zhu Jiuzhen, Cao Jian smiled and said, "Director, I met with Wang Zuxian yesterday and invited her to make a cameo appearance in our show as Dai Qisi. She agreed."

"what?"

The director, producer, and even Manager Zhang, who was in charge of TV dramas at TTV, who were drinking tea, were so surprised by what they heard that they almost spat out the tea they had just drunk.

Could Wang Zuxian make a cameo appearance?
How is that possible? She's a movie star, and incredibly popular in Hong Kong and even across Asia. She's known as the most beautiful woman in Asia.

Would someone like that make a cameo appearance in a TV series?
"Please don't be surprised, everyone. I have a good relationship with her. I was just trying to invite her, but I didn't expect her to agree."

Cao Jian spoke casually, as if it were just something he said offhand.

"That's great, absolutely great!"

The director and producer were so happy they didn't know what to say.

Inviting Cao Jian to play Zhang Wuji, even though his salary was a bit higher than that of ordinary actors, was a huge gimmick because he was able to get Wang Zuxian to make a cameo appearance.

It would be an absolute injustice if this movie didn't become a hit.

Manager Zhang, who also served as the producer, asked, "How much would it cost for Miss Wang to make a cameo appearance?"

"You can give whatever you think is appropriate. I didn't say anything, just give a token amount, since there aren't many shots anyway."

"Mr. Cao, you've really surprised us."

Manager Zhang was even more convinced that agreeing to co-produce a film with Cao Jian was a wise decision.

If I were to invite Wang Zuxian myself, even if I offered him ten million NT dollars to make a cameo appearance, I probably still wouldn't be able to get him to do it.

Cao Jian only needed to say one sentence to make the beautiful Wang agree to come.

This network of connections is truly exceptional.

Cao Jian came here today to take Li Xiaoran to audition. Now that the matter is settled, he is ready to say goodbye and leave, and wait for the filming to begin.

Just as he was about to take his leave, the director suddenly said, "Mr. Cao, I heard from Taiwan that you are an excellent composer. The theme song for this drama is still missing. Why don't you try to write it in the meantime? If you can sing it yourself, you will be well paid."

"Theme song?"

Cao Jian was taken aback. The theme of this drama hadn't been written yet?

Then why should I be polite?
