Entertainment: Since 1990

Chapter 347: It begins here, and it ends here.

Now it is the last year of the 20th century, and people's quality of life has undergone tremendous changes compared to ten years ago.

Ten years ago, most people who flew were business owners, but now there are more and more ordinary people at the airport.

When people discovered the legendary King Cao, just like fans seeing a celebrity a few years later, they all excitedly surrounded him.

The titles "Cao Tianwang" and "Linghu Chong" attracted more and more people to him.

"Hello everyone."

Although Cao Jian had several bodyguards with him, he did not have them drive these people away. Instead, he took off his sunglasses and waved to his fans, which immediately caused even louder screams and cheers.

He believes that in a few years, those young male celebrities who always have bodyguards clearing the way and act all high and mighty will just be showing off.

"Cao Tianwang, your portrayal of Linghu Chong is so good."

Yes, we all like you!

"Any songs coming out soon? We've been waiting for your songs for ages!"

……

Facing a large number of fans, Cao Jian said loudly, "I plan to hold a concert at the end of this year, and I hope everyone will come."

"Oh!"

"We definitely will go!"

Upon hearing that their idol was going to hold a concert, the airport terminal immediately erupted in a grand cheer.

In the entertainment industry today, who is as famous as Cao Jian?

He rarely attends concerts, and this might be the last time.

After interacting with fans for a while, Cao Jian politely bowed to everyone and said goodbye before getting into his car under the protection of bodyguards.

Upon arriving at the company, Cao Jian called over Chen Hong and Wang Jinghua and asked, "How have things been lately?"

"Boss, 'Swordsman' is really popular lately. It has a 26% rating on CCTV, which is only slightly lower than 'Spring Bright Pigsy.' It might be because you didn't sing the theme song."

Wang Jinghua reported, "Recently, we have also cooperated with many TV stations, and our artists are now basically able to take on major roles."

"Well done."

Cao Jian nodded. With Wang Jinghua, the top agent in the region, he was quite confident about the resources of the company's artists.

Cao Jian then asked Chen Hong, "How's the TV series going?"

"The second season of 'Princess Pearl' is about to wrap up filming, 'The Grand Mansion Gate' is currently being filmed, and 'Young Justice Bao' has only recently started filming."

Chen Hong is now the company's general manager, and she has replaced Cao Jian as the paper doll in these films.

Holding a document, this "Diao Chan" continued her report: "The Qin Empire is in preparation, CCTV has taken a liking to the script of Emperor Wu of Han and wants to co-produce it with us, and the review of The Great Hero Zheng Chenggong has been approved and it should be broadcast soon."

"You've all worked hard. We'll give you all a bigger bonus this year."

Cao Jian was very satisfied with their work and said with a smile, "I'm going to Hong Kong in a few days, so I'll leave things here to you."

After saying that, he said to Wang Jinghua, "Also, discover more promising new talents in major art colleges and make our company the biggest cradle for actors in the entertainment industry."

"understand!"

With her boss's words, Wang Jinghua felt even more confident.

With Boss Cao's scripts, no matter how many artists the company has, there will always be plenty of work.

But when Chen Hong heard that the man was leaving as soon as he returned, she immediately said, "President Cao, would you like to attend the wrap-up ceremony for 'Princess Pearl 2'?"

Cao Jian understood what the woman meant; she was reluctant to part with him. So he said, "Then I'll join in."

Sure enough, after Wang Jinghua left, Chen Hong said, "You came back but didn't spend time with me or our son. Our son can call me 'Dad' now, he calls me 'Dad' every day."

"Really? Then I'll have dinner with you and your son tonight."

Cao Jiansheng has many daughters but few sons, so he really needs to keep this brat company.

Since they've stayed, Fan Bingbing, Xu Qing, Wang Yan, and others should also receive the same treatment.

Two days later, Cao Jian arrived at the "Princess Pearl 2" film crew.

Because the first season of "My Fair Princess" was a huge hit, the second season was filmed with great care and attention to detail, as required.

After nearly six months of filming, it's finally coming to a close.

When Cao Jian arrived at the film set, the first thing he saw was Ya Ya, who played the role of Xiang Fei.

Tender and delicate, Ya Ya not only possesses the unique charm of ethnic minorities, but also has snow-white skin and unparalleled beauty.

Cao Jian couldn't understand how Chen could bear to divorce such a beautiful woman.

"Boss, you're here."

"Where have you been lately? Haven't you come to check on me?"

"Do you miss me or not?"

Before Cao Jian could even greet Ya Ya, Jin Suo (Fan Bingbing), Zi Wei (Lin Xinru), Xiao Yanzi (Jia Jingwen), and Qing'er (Wang Yan) all rushed over.

"If I can win over Yaya in the future, all five beauties in 'My Fair Princess 2' will be my type."

Cao Jian felt that life was indeed very wonderful.

After chatting with the four beauties for a while and listening to their longing for each other, he made an appointment to spend time with one of them during this period, and then walked towards Ya Ya.

"You must be Ya Ya. Are you settling in well in Yanjing?"

Cao Jian's flirting skills weren't exactly brilliant, but Ya Ya was incredibly excited to see her idol.

"Director Cao, it's just a habit, but I'm a little homesick."

Although Ya Ya is not very old, she already exudes the aura of a beauty. Standing with the other four beauties from "My Fair Princess", she not only doesn't lose out, but even seems to overshadow them.

This woman has played many beautiful women; she has a promising future.

"Homesick? I was even thinking of signing you to our company. Since you're homesick, then..."

"I don't want to think about it anymore! I'm willing!"

What does signing with Cao Jian's entertainment company mean? Although Ya Ya is young, she has been filming for a while now, so how could she not understand?
"Ha ha."

Cao Jian found this girl quite adorable and smiled, "It's okay to think about it, but I heard you're a very good dancer?"

"Okay."

"I'm going to be holding a New Year's Eve concert at the beginning of the year, will you be my backup dancer?"

"Okay."

Ya Ya agreed without even thinking.

During this time, she has been watching "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer". Cao Jian's Linghu Chong is not only handsome and dashing, but he can also be a backup dancer at Cao Tianwang's concert, which is something that many girls dream of.

"It's settled then. Go to the company tomorrow and find Manager Wang Jinghua to sign the contract."

Cao Jian extended his hand: "I'd like to welcome you to our company."

"Thank you, Director Cao, for giving me this opportunity."

Ya Ya also reached out and shook hands with Cao Jian.

"Indeed, she's delicate and boneless; a skilled hand."

With Cao Jian's extensive experience, even just from shaking hands, he already knew that this girl was absolutely exceptional.

The wrap-up ceremony for "My Fair Princess 2" was a grand affair, and Cao Jian also stated at the event that the second season would definitely be even more popular than the first.

And through this drama, Ya Ya will definitely be able to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry.

In front of reporters, he not only announced his upcoming concert, but also announced that he would be collaborating with China Film Group to film a movie called "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

After that, Cao Jian stayed in Yanjing for nearly a month, visiting various film crews.

He didn't manage "The Grand Mansion Gate" much, but the investment was still big-name, with even big-name directors like Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige making cameo appearances.

"Young Justice Bao" is a key project for the company. Not only does it feature Li Bingbing, but Wang Yan will also join the cast after finishing filming "Princess Pearl 2".

Cao Jiang believes that these dramas will not only bring him huge profits, but also suppress the "Kangxi Dynasty" which lacks the quality of "Borrowing Five Hundred Years from Heaven".

For this drama, he not only sang the theme song "Without Shame," but also invited Han Hong to sing the ending theme song "As Long As I Have You."

With these two songs, the drama will surely be even more powerful.

After finishing his work on the mainland, it was already September when Cao Jian finally went to Hong Kong.

In Hong Kong, Mr. Cao has invested in quite a few film and television projects, including "Infernal Affairs" and "The Myth," and Stephen Chow is also preparing to film "Kung Fu Hustle." However, his record company has been relying on Faye Wong and Zhou Chuanxiong to stay afloat for the past two years.

Fortunately, Angela Chang's first album, "Invisible Wings," sold over a million copies; otherwise, people would have thought that this record company only had two singers.

"Honey, you're finally back in style? I thought you were planning to stay abroad forever."

Upon arriving in Hong Kong, Wang Fei complained, "You're going too far by being such a hands-off boss."

"Honey, I know you've worked hard."

Cao Jian actually felt sorry for Wang Fei. For the sake of the record company, she not only held concerts everywhere, but also appeared on variety shows to make money.

"You're just all talk; show me something real."

Wang Fei's resentment is not so easily dispelled: "It would be best to stay in Hong Kong for a longer period of time."

"Haha, so this is what you really wanted."

Cao Jian embraced Wang Fei: "Did you know about your concert announcement? I want to say goodbye to the music scene at this concert, and then I'll spend more time with you all."

"Okay, I'll sing along for you then."

Wang Fei knew beforehand that Cao Jian planned to retire, but she never expected that this moment would still come.

"It's not just you."

Cao Jian laughed and said, "I also plan to have Jay Chou and S.H.E make their first appearance at this concert."

"I really think Jay Chou's singing is just average, how could he become so popular?"

Why do you have so little confidence in my judgment?

"I don't have confidence in him."

"He's our record company's future cash cow; I'm very optimistic about him."

Cao Jian returned to Hong Kong and was busy with several TV dramas and movies.

However, news of his upcoming concert has already spread among fans, and many have begun to inquire about where Cao Tianwang's concert will be held and where tickets can be purchased.

northwest.

A woman named Yan was leaning against the headboard, listening to a song that Cao Jian used to sing.

For the past two years, she has worked in a drama troupe and has acted in some films and television dramas, but she has remained relatively unknown.

The person I had met once and exchanged letters with a few times has now become a famous director, screenwriter, and musician in China and even the world.

She really wanted to contact this big shot again, hoping he could at least give her some support and maybe she could make a name for herself.

The main issue is that I'm not young anymore, and I'm still all alone.

Although someone introduced her to potential partners, she was actually still thinking about that other man.

I was listening to music when my phone suddenly rang.

She saved up for several months to buy this phone, and it was even made by that man's company.

"Hello, who is it?"

"It's me, your old classmate Chen Qian."

"Chen Qian?"

Yan was stunned for a moment. Although she hadn't been in contact with this old classmate for many years, she hadn't forgotten her and remembered her very clearly.

Because nine years ago, when I had dinner with Cao Jian, this old classmate was also present.

"What? Surprised? I had to ask a lot of classmates to get your phone number."

"Chen Qian, what made you decide to call me?"

Yan was worried that her old friend was asking her for money, but she didn't have any extra money to lend her right now.

"Old classmate, have you heard? Cao Jian, who had dinner with us nine years ago, is going to have a concert. Let's go together and catch up, and see if we can get a couple of tickets."

My niece, Dongdong, is a big fan of Cao Jian and insisted on going to his concert.

Left with no other choice, she called Yan, hoping to use her old classmate's connections to get in touch with the now-famous King Cao.

"this."

Yan was in a bit of a dilemma because she suspected that Cao Jian might have already forgotten about her.

"Yan, please help me out. I told my niece that I had dinner with Cao Tianwang before, and she's been pestering me for the past few days. If I can't get her tickets, she'll say I'm bragging."

"I'll think of a way."

"Yan, I knew you would agree."

"Stop it."

Yan and Chen Qian caught up for a while, then hung up the phone, but Yan felt a little awkward.

How do you come up with this idea?
How can we get tickets when we don't even know where Cao Jian is?

Should I go to his concert or wait for him at the company entrance?

"It seems that this is the only way to do it."

After thinking about it for a long time, Yan decided to try her luck and see if this man could help her out.

……

"This daughter is so beautiful."

Not long after Cao Jian arrived in Hong Kong, news came from Japan that Izumi Sakai was about to give birth, so he rushed to Japan.

“Darling, you’re just like me.”

Looking at her daughter and lover, Izumi Sakai felt that she had lived a fulfilling life.

"Take good care of yourself, and you have to come to my concert."

Meanwhile, news came from the United States that "The Matrix" had wrapped filming and could be released on Christmas Day.

Harry Potter is also preparing to start filming and will be released next year.

Other projects, such as "Transformers" and "Pirates of the Caribbean," are also in the works.

In October, Cao Jian returned to Hong Kong and acquired a large number of TVB shares. At the same time, he prepared to create an album called "Fantasy" for Jay Chou.

At the same time, he also wrote a song for S.H.E. called "SUPER STAR", which will be performed at his concert.

In mid-November, Cao Jian announced that his concert would be held in his hometown of Chang'an.

At this point, there were only two months left until the new millennium.

The transition from the 20th century to the 21st century is of extraordinary significance to the whole world.

There are also rumors circulating among the people about the "Millennium Bug".

But after hearing the news that their idol was holding a concert, many of Cao Jian's fans and moviegoers traveled by plane, train, and bus from all over the world to this ancient city.

The venue for the concert could only accommodate 60,000 spectators, but the number of people who like Cao Tianwang is at least in the tens of millions.

Everyone wanted to be the first to grab a ticket.

Starting in November, if you ask what's the hottest item, it's tickets to Cao Jian's concert.

It seems like whoever manages to snag a ticket is a winner in life.

A ticket that originally cost 699 yuan was resold for 3,000 yuan, while the most expensive ticket, costing 1,999 yuan, even cost tens of thousands of yuan.

Even so, many people still flock to it.

Fans believe that Cao Laoban's concert is something to be cherished and enjoyed.

In early December, Cao Jian not only integrated TVB, becoming its largest shareholder and head, but also merged its film and television company and record company to form a new entertainment group.

In mid-December, Mr. Cao's private jet was finally delivered.

On this luxurious private jet, Boss Cao, along with singers including Wang Fei, Yang Yuying, Jay Chou, S.H.E., Angela Chang, Zhou Chuanxiong, and Sun Yanzi, left Hong Kong and embarked on their journey to Chang'an.

Of course, in addition to singers, Wang Zuxian, Qiu Shuzhen, Lin Chih-ling, and others will also appear at the concert as guests.

For Cao Jian, this was a true homecoming in glory.

It begins here, so it ends here.
I was too busy today and wrote too late, so I'll post this first and revise it later. Please understand. (End of Chapter)
