Entertainment: Since 1990

Chapter 237 The Favorites for the Campus Beauty Contest

The reason why Hong Kong's entertainment industry is full of beauties is not only because of TVB's Miss Hong Kong pageant, but also because of ATV's Miss Asia pageant.

Taiwan's film and television industry really wants to develop, but unfortunately, it hasn't found a better way.

Another reason is that after the stock market crash in 91, Taiwan's economy has not recovered, which has also led to slow development in the entertainment industry.

While people in Taiwan could only watch Miss Hong Kong and Miss Asia pageants, the first campus beauty pageant in Taiwan began in September 94.

With the promotional efforts of television stations and the magazine "YES!", the first Campus Beauty Pageant received widespread attention from people in Taiwan.

Even some Hong Kong people are focusing their attention on this year's school beauty pageant.

Everyone loves to look at beautiful women.

Every man, no matter his age, enjoys looking at beautiful women.

Especially since she's a school beauty, she inspires even more fantasies in men.

The campus beauty pageant was originally scheduled for its finals around New Year's Day, but due to the number of applicants exceeding 50,000 during the preliminary rounds, the competition was delayed by a week and was postponed to January 10th.

This year's campus beauty pageant has produced a plethora of beauties, with almost all the pretty girls from universities and high schools being discovered.

The thirty beauties who made it to the finals were all handpicked, with top-notch looks and figures.

The program also organized an activity where participants could buy "YES!" magazine, cut out the voting pages, mail them to the organizing committee, and vote for their favorite school beauty.

For this event alone, YES! magazine sold over 800,000 copies in December.

Some people even paid out of their own pockets to give a copy to every student in the school in order to get votes.

But they didn't know that it was useless, because the top spots had already been decided.

But with such booming sales, in addition to the money earned by the magazine itself, the advertising revenue alone made Mr. Cao earn more than 50 million New Taiwan Dollars, even with tears in his eyes.

Therefore, he must be present for this final.

At the same time, Boss Cao also wanted to see if there were any outstanding girls who could sign with his company.

These girls have been promoted in "YES!" for quite some time, especially Lin Chih-ling, who is tall and has a hot figure and is a favorite to win the championship.

"Brother, what if the winner of this year's school beauty pageant takes a liking to you?"

On the flight from Hong Kong to Taiwan, Li Xiaoran and Cao Jian were joking around.

Cao Jian chuckled and said, "Isn't it good that she's taken a liking to me? It just means I'm popular with women, and they couldn't be happier."

The number one school beauty is Lin Chih-ling, and even if she doesn't like him, he'll still try to win her over and flirt with her.

"Brother, if I were in a school beauty pageant, would I be in the top three?"

Li Xiaoran was also hinting to Cao Jian that she wanted this "sworn brother" to pay more attention to her.

Ideally, I'd like to be like Lin Xinru.

"No problem, my god-sister has a great figure and fair skin. Fair skin covers up a thousand flaws."

You said I'm ugly? Ugly as a thousand times?

Li Xiaoran raised her little fist in a coquettish manner, but didn't bring it down; however, the sound she made was alluring enough.

Cao Jian had watched many of Li Xiaoran's films and television dramas, including those featuring her as innocent, mad, and charming.

But such a combination of innocence and allure is rare.

Besides, he was going to pick this little white flower anyway; he was just trying to make her happy.

He deliberately scrutinized Li Xiaoran for a while and said with a smile, "Actually, you're really just average. Otherwise, you would definitely have won the school beauty title. Right now, you can only get second place."

Li Xiaoran was about to be disappointed after hearing the first sentence, but she immediately became happy when she heard the last sentence.

This older brother is so naughty, he just knows how to tease people.

She immediately said what she had been wanting to say: "Brother, I'm the second one who has taken a liking to you. Do you like me?"

"If I didn't like you, why would I bring you to Hong Kong?"

When the girl suddenly confessed her feelings, Cao Jian told the truth this time.

"Brother, so you've been eyeing me all along."

Li Xiaoran was not angry when she heard this; on the contrary, she was very happy.

It turns out my godbrother actually values ​​me quite a bit.

There are many beautiful women in China, but only she was brought to Hong Kong by him to develop her career. In this respect, no one else can compare.

She immediately leaned gently on Cao Jian's shoulder: "Brother, actually I liked you when we were filming 'Heavenly Sword and Dragon Sabre,' but you made me live with that little girl, so I rarely saw you."

"Hehe, I was just worried you'd be lonely. Living with her would be a good opportunity for you to learn Cantonese."

Actually, I'd rather learn from you.

"So, will you learn from me from now on?"

The atmosphere was right, and Cao Jian put his arm around Li Xiaoran's shoulder without any hesitation: "When we get back to Hong Kong, I'll buy you a house, and I'll come visit you whenever I have time." "Forget it, I'd rather live with the little girl. That way, I'll have someone to keep me company every day, so I won't be bored when you're not around."

Li Xiaoran thought about it and realized that her godbrother had many women around him, and since she lived alone, she didn't know how often she would be able to see him.

It's better to live with Zhang Baizhi; at least there'll be someone to bicker with.

But then she suddenly said, "Actually, Zhang Baizhi is quite pretty too. Are you interested in her as well?"

"She's my goddaughter, how could that be?"

Cao Jian couldn't admit it verbally, after all, Zhang Baizhi was still young.

"cut"

Li Xiaoran didn't believe it.

Although Zhang Baizhi is young, she is definitely a beautiful and roguish girl. This time, she was given the role of Xiao Guo Fu. I guess when she gets older, she will be promoted to a big star.

My godbrother is indeed a hypocrite.

However, I need to keep going.
When the plane landed in Taipei, TTV arranged separate rooms for Cao Jian and his party that evening.

After dinner, Li Xiaoran and Cao Jian went upstairs together and arrived at their room.

After hesitating for a while, she was still too embarrassed to ask to stay with her godbrother that night.

Cao Jian deliberately remained silent, waiting for the girl to speak.

Li Xiaoran opened the door, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Brother, I want to sleep."

"Well, go to bed early."

"you you."

"how do I?"

Cao Jian was still pretending: "The school beauty pageant finals are tomorrow night, get some rest."

Hearing that it was the school beauty pageant finals, Li Xiaoran was really worried that her godbrother would take a liking to the winner and try to use some kind of underhanded tactic, which would probably leave her with no chance.

She mustered her courage: "Could you... could you not stay with me tonight?"

"Let's go together!"

Cao Jian looked at Li Xiaoran, who was looking down with a shy and alluring expression, and picked her up in his arms. Before closing the door, he didn't forget to hang up the "Do Not Disturb" sign.

Although the final of the school beauty pageant is still a day away, Lin Chih-ling has already become a sensation thanks to the hype on television and in magazines over the past few months.

Many television stations, entertainment companies, and even some people in Hong Kong have seen the girl's potential.

Many companies want to sign Lin Chih-ling to their companies, but some people understand that since Mr. Cao is organizing this competition, Lin Chih-ling is probably already in his possession.

Some modeling agencies, refusing to believe it, specifically approached Lin Chih-ling to discuss signing a contract, only to be rejected as expected.

"Zhiling, you're so popular now, how does it feel?"

Lin Chih-ling, who is still in school, was not very popular among her female classmates because of her age and beauty. However, she has now become a hot candidate for the school beauty pageant, and many classmates have started to approach her.

"no feelings."

Lin Chih-ling naturally enjoys this change.

But she knew that this opportunity was given to her by that man.

"If I were you, I'd probably be too excited to sleep at night."

Lin Chih-ling's classmate said, "If you win the championship, you will definitely become a big star in the future."

"It's hard to say. There are many favorites to win this time, such as Hsu Hsi-yuan, Chia Ching-wen, Lin Hsin-ju, Lin Wei-chun, and Chen Chiao-en. They are all quite good."

Although Cao Jian had promised himself that the championship was predetermined.

But Lin Chih-ling also knew that the competition for the title of this year's campus beauty pageant was quite fierce.

"How can they compare to you? You're currently ranked number one in popularity. The TV rating says you have 42% approval rating, while the highest others only have 29%."

After her classmate finished speaking, he suddenly offered Lin Zhiling a suggestion: "Don't you know Boss Cao? If you want to guarantee winning the championship, you can actually try to build a relationship with him."

He then leaned close to Lin's ear and whispered, "Boss Cao is so handsome. If you sleep with him once, the championship will definitely be yours. No one can take it from you."

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Lin Chih-ling blushed immediately.

Although I like Cao Cao's songs and enjoy watching his movies, I can be considered one of his fans.

Moreover, quite a few of my classmates have had sexual experience, but I have been studying hard for the past two years in order to get into a university in the United States, and I haven't had a relationship yet.

Since Mr. Cao has already decided to be number one, could it be that he also wants to sleep with me?
On second thought, the boss is actually quite handsome, and only four years older than me. It would be nice to date him.

As I thought about it, I started to look forward to my idol pursuing me after the competition.
