Huayu 1995

Chapter 297 Do You Believe in the Light? (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Super Boy~ May your album sell like hotcakes!"

"Thank you~"

Su Chao tossed over a Zippo lighter.

The waiter's eyes lit up.

This is a gift from a giant cannon, second only to a gift worth hundreds of millions.

"You came before?"

Lin Zhimeng watched in surprise as Su Chao interacted with the waiter at the door.

This kid looks like a regular customer.

"This is my first time here."

Since this was at least his first time here, Su Chao wasn't lying.

"Don't believe it~"

Lin Zhimeng snorted.

"I have asked others how to behave in a dignified manner."

Su Chao held Lin Zhimeng's hand.

Once inside, I soon met today's host, Lin Jianyue.

The Lin family has assets worth tens of billions of dollars and are prominent figures in Hong Kong.

His parties are of very high quality within the industry.

However, at this time he had not yet officially entered the entertainment industry, and Media Asia had no connection with him.

Many of Peter Lam's initial investments were unsuccessful, even resulting in huge losses and nearly ruining the family business.

For example, in 1994, Peter Lam acquired 20% of ATV's shares in New World Development Company Limited, which caused his father to be mired in ATV's financial quagmire. Later, Lai Sun International was removed from the Hang Seng Index constituent stock status due to low trading volume.

Previously, his rumored affair with Wang Zuxian had also caused him a lot of trouble.

He hasn't hosted an entertainment industry party in a long time.

A recent investment earned his father's praise, and he finally felt like throwing a party.

Su Chao and he didn't have any direct interaction—but they did have some indirect interactions, such as with Wang Zuxian.

Wang Zuxian broke up with Lin Jianyue last year.

The reason for the breakup was that Lin Jianyue's mother called her a prostitute and refused to let her into the house, saying that it was as if her son had been a prostitute.

Wang Zuxian saw no hope and naturally broke up with him.

However, immediately after her breakup, she starred in the movie "My Sassy Girl," written and starring Su Chao, playing the lead role for free. This inevitably led people to associate the breakup with Su Chao's reputation as a powerful figure.

However, wealthy young men like Lin Jianyue rarely have direct conflicts with others because of women.

They receive elite education from a young age and will suppress their opponents in a more subtle and sophisticated way.

Besides, Su Chao didn't steal his woman.

When he saw the woman next to Su Chao, he was stunned. Her appearance, figure, and aloof and indifferent temperament shocked even this veteran of the entertainment industry.

"Mr. Lin, I'm so glad to finally meet you."

Su Chao pulled the fat man into his arms and slapped him hard on the back—a slap that required at least thirty years of internal energy.

Lin Jianyue's vision went black, and he almost died.

"I knew it! Su Chao has always wanted to get to know you, Mr. Lin."

Hearing the noise, Andy Lau came over and saw the two people hugging each other.

They seem to have a really good relationship.

"Ahem, no need to be so enthusiastic."

Lin Jianyue waved his hand repeatedly.

Is this guy a boxer or a Sanda practitioner? He's incredibly tough, and he could split mountains and rocks with a single swing of his hand.

Was his girlfriend able to survive because of the huge cushioning in her chest?

“Mr. Lin, I heard that you are Brother Hua’s friend, and I am also Brother Hua’s friend, so we should be best friends…”

Su Chao excitedly grabbed Lin Jianyue's hand.

"It hurts... it hurts..."

Lin Jianyue's face was almost scrunched up; he felt that Su Chao's claws were like iron clamps.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm too excited. You are the first Hong Kong tycoon I have ever met, a legendary figure who only exists in legendary stories."

Su Chao didn't mind adding a few more compliments.

"Oh, don't be so polite, Andy Lau. You go and entertain your friends. I saw Zhizhi, I'll go greet her."

Lin Jianyue wants to stay away from Su Chao.

The 18 or 19-year-old lad was incredibly enthusiastic.

Damn, I can't stand it.

Homosexuals don't date guys like that; they'd be killed by him easily.

There weren't too many people in the bar.

But most of them were familiar faces.

Lin Jianyue has not yet officially entered the entertainment industry and has no conflict of interest with various capital groups, so anyone can attend his parties.

"We haven't even congratulated you on the album's huge success yet; we can throw a celebration party now."

Andy Lau came alone today.

He's still diligently playing the role of a single man, keeping his wife well hidden from view.

"Thank you, Brother Hua."

Su Chao didn't say he was inferior to you; that would be stirring up trouble, because his film "Too Softhearted" did indeed sell better than Andy Lau's "The World's Number One." In fact, Su Chao's arrival has drawn a lot of attention to him.

However, since everyone is a celebrity and they don't know each other well, it's not appropriate to be too proactive.

Moreover, Andy Lau has now taken over Su Chao's position.

The friendship between these two is genuine and has become quite legendary within the industry.

After his investment failed, Andy Lau vowed never to invest in movies again, saying that he would be a dog if he did, and he wouldn't even invest in a dog. Then he invested in Su Chao's film "My Sassy Girl".

what is this?
It is... love!

"The atmosphere here is quite relaxed today, you can leave anytime. If you get tired of it later, just let me know and we can leave."

Liu Dehua glanced at Lin Zhimeng, nodded politely to her, and then looked away.

"No problem, when are we going to the mainland to film the music video?"

Su Chao was referring to the music video for "Chinese People," which is no longer exclusively associated with Su Chao and Andy Lau.

After several months of back and forth and countless meetings, several departments finally adopted Su Chao's suggestions for MV.

The venue is the Great Wall and the Red Flag.

Liu Dehua, dressed in a white long gown, sang "Chinese" amidst waving red flags.

Of course, although Su Chao's suggestions were adopted almost entirely, the credit definitely belongs to everyone.

"They said on the phone it would be in April, and then we'll have your company make it."

Andy Lau knew that Su Chao owned an advertising company that was very powerful in mainland China, and their advertisements could even be seen on television in Hong Kong.

For example, that girl who drinks clean.

There are many similar examples, all of which are considered classics.

This has led many Hong Kong businesses to want to hire them to shoot advertisements.

"Sure, let's work together."

Su Chao shook hands with the other person again.

Yuanmeng Advertising Company has extensive experience in shooting music videos; after all, they have already shot more than a dozen music videos for Su Chao's two albums alone.

"Hey, what are you guys talking about?"

Lin Jianyue and Rosamund Kwan walked over together.

Rosamund Kwan is the so-called "Zhi Zhi".

Some people also call her Rosamund, which is her English name.

Many people on the mainland like to call her Aunt Thirteen.

Hao Lei also played the role of Aunt Thirteen, but she was still a little bit inferior to Rosamund Kwan.

"This is Chaozai, his girlfriend Ms. Lin, and this is Rosamund Kwan, you can call her Zhizhi."

Liu Dehua gave an introduction.

"Sister Zhizhi~"

Su Chao shouted, indicating that he wasn't particularly interested in these so-called goddesses.

If I had traveled back ten years earlier, I might have been a little interested, but now, forget it.

Everyone greeted each other.

"Ah, Miss Lin speaks Cantonese too!"

Lin Zhimeng speaks very little, but she does respond, and everyone then discovered that her Cantonese is also very good.

“I was born in Hong Kong and lived there for sixteen years before moving to the mainland.”

Lin Zhimeng offered a brief explanation.

Then Rosamund Kwan and Lin Zhimeng quickly got along very well.

Rosamund Kwan took Lin Zhimeng to meet her friends. Su Chao told her not to drink too much alcohol, and then she went with Andy Lau to meet his friends.

You could also say it's about getting to know the clients.

After all, quite a few singers came today.

If Su Chao wants to buy a new car, it all depends on how well these customers are willing to help him today.

There are actually items that can be bought with Andy Lau.

One song is "Tears of a Lonely Star," and the other is "Silly Kid."

Add one more piece and the price will be 120,000.

Su Chao didn't hesitate much and bought it directly.

The second client was Anita Mui.

Andy Lau and Anita Mui had a very good relationship, so he would naturally introduce Su Chao to his good friend first.

It could even be said that Anita Mui came here today specifically to see Su Chao.

If some people had previously underestimated Su Chao, after the release of his album "Too Softhearted," no singer dared to be defiant in front of him anymore.

Anita Mui was a dominant force in the Chinese music scene.

However, she released two albums last year, both of which sold very poorly.

The more glorious someone has been, the more afraid they are of falling from grace. Right now, she lacks good songs more than anyone else.

In her eyes, Su Chao was like a radiant Buddha who came to save her career.

Hmm, it could also be Ultraman.

She believes in the existence of light more than ever before.
