Huayu 1995

Chapter 86 I'll kowtow to you in public! (Seeking monthly votes)

Of these three songs, Sha Bao Liang's "Dark Fragrance" is the most popular.

then……

Okay, not back then, but a few years later, with the hit TV series "The Story of a Noble Family" starring Dong Jie, Chen Kun, and Liu Yifei, this song also gained an incredible level of popularity.

Making a living off one song for a lifetime is no joke.

Sha Bao Liang did release new works after "Dark Fragrance", but apart from "Dark Fragrance", basically no one knows what other songs he has.

He was sitting between two wealthy women, telling them stories of his adventures in the martial arts world.

This made the two wealthy women giggle.

He was unaware that an opportunity that would change his life was slipping away.

Just a few minutes ago, Su Chao swept through his world with a chilling wind, taking everything away from him.

He skillfully took the two hundred yuan tip from the rich woman, quickly stuffed it into his pocket, and then kissed her on the cheek.

boo~
Actually, he was in a pretty good mood.

Su Chao's new song was a huge success, which made him jealous.

However, despite his jealousy, he no longer intended to target Su Chao.

Because Scottish Premiership will soon be leaving Casablanca.

Once Su Chao signs with a record company and releases his album, he will immediately become a popular singer.

Naturally, it was no longer possible for him to continue performing in Casablanca.

At most, he'll come back every few days to sing one or two songs.

This is the sophistication of a popular singer.

You can't lose your class.

Otherwise, people wouldn't offer you a high price for a commercial performance.

You only get three thousand dollars for a whole night of singing in Casablanca, so why do you get thirty thousand dollars for one song here?

As for Wu Xiubo, he said he was leaving before, but now we don't know if he'll still be leaving.

This is Shabao Liang's number one enemy.

Once Su Chao and Wu Xiubo leave, he will be Casablanca's top star.

The real top star!
The fame and customer traffic that the Scottish Premiership has brought to Casablanca will belong to him in the future.

Su Chao ignored Sha Baoliang.

The only song that Sha Baoliang could afford was "Dark Fragrance," and he didn't care about anything else.

It's almost midnight.

He went to settle accounts with Yan Siyuan for tonight's events.

In total, Su Chao earned 15,000 yuan in one night.

The data is not exaggerated.

These days, singers who do gigs, like top-tier artists such as Mao Amin and Liu Huan, can earn over 100,000 yuan for just two songs at a variety show concert.

Chen Ming, a second-tier celebrity, can earn 30,000 yuan in a single autograph session, performing two songs in half an hour.

Otherwise, Wu Xiubo and Sha Baoliang wouldn't have thought of making a hit song and entering the music scene when they could earn tens of thousands of yuan a month.

They will definitely sever ties with karaoke bars in the future.

The singers who become popular earn more than the top stars.

If a singer becomes famous and then returns to perform at a nightclub, their fee will immediately more than double.

Su Chao sang about ten songs tonight.

Fifteen thousand seems like a lot, but it's really not that much.

Compared to second- or third-tier singers, he's only one step away from releasing an album.

Therefore, Su Chao will focus his main efforts on the production of his first album and strive to release it before October.

In addition to the 15,000 yuan share of the song revenue, Yan Siyuan also compensated Su Chao for the "difference" in his basic salary.

The base salary was 1,500 before, but now it has been increased to 8,000, which is a difference of 6,500.

They were trying every possible way to send money to Su Chao.

Su Chao will leave sooner or later.

However, as long as Casablanca stays a day longer, it will enjoy an extra day of benefits.

There are many reds.

Someone knocked on the door when I was going to sleep at night.

Now everyone knows that the principal is sleeping in the training room.

It's about sleeping, just sleeping, not sleeping with female students or male students.

If you want to see the principal, just knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Su Chao doesn't have the habit of sleeping naked, but it seems impolite to meet people wearing only his underwear.

Even if it were Brother Zhou who came.

So he rolled up the bamboo mat and put it aside, and also put on some beach shorts.

"I... need to talk to you about something."

Zhou Xun, also known as Brother Zhou, glanced at Su Chao's pectoral muscles.

I couldn't help but swallow.

You smell so good, bro!
"What is it? Speak..."

Su Chao could roughly guess that it was probably related to Chen Kaige.

Zhou Xun only sang a few songs tonight, spending the rest of the time in a booth next to Chen Kaige.

"Chen Kaige said he would arrange a role for me in his film 'Temptress Moon' and let me act with him."

Zhou Xun was bombarded with topics related to "Feng Yue".

Clearly, Chen Kaige is ambitious.

Without his father, he stood alone in the director's seat.

He hopes that "Temptress Moon" can surpass his previous works, and "Farewell My Concubine" is a mountain he must climb. When that happens, he will be the number one director in China.

No one will question his reliance on his father's connections anymore.

"That's a good thing, why do you look so unhappy?"

Although Su Chao knew that "Temptress Moon" didn't give Zhou Xun what she wanted, nor did it give Chen Kaige what he wanted, one must make a path through life.

No one can be sure whether the next step is right or wrong.

Moreover, whether it's right or wrong, it all contributes to growth.

Therefore, Su Chao had no intention of helping others avoid detours.

Unless he is the one who takes the wrong turn.

"It's just that... I really like my current pace of life, it's stable and comfortable. Now that it's suddenly going to change, I'm a little uneasy and wanted to say goodbye to you."

Zhou Xun had just broken up with her boyfriend a few days ago.

She thought she would be in unbearable pain.

After all, she really loved Dou Peng, otherwise she wouldn't have followed him to Beijing to pursue her dreams and was willing to make all sorts of sacrifices.

But in fact it is not.

She's been having a great time these past few days with the people in the training program.

What... Peng?

What is a sinus?
Su Chao had already spoken to the people at the karaoke bar, and Sister Hong was quite tolerant of her.

She sang nursery rhymes as Su Chao suggested.

Even the number of gropers trying to take advantage of her has decreased.

"Will you... come back?"

The birds, once released, don't want to fly anymore.

Su Chao was a little worried that he might spoil Zhou Gongzi.

"Yes, I'll come back after filming this movie."

Zhou Xun said without hesitation that she was just going out to film a movie, not becoming an instant star.

A movie needs to be filmed, produced, and released.

Cycles are usually calculated in years.

Especially for films by renowned directors like Chen Kaige, meticulous work is required, and they must wait for international film festivals before being released.

"Come back..." Su Chao chuckled, "I thought you were going to kowtow to me before you left."

It's all so formal, and it's even damn sentimental.

"You son of a bitch!"

Zhou Xun was stunned for a moment, then became furious.

"Stop swearing and smoke less, or I'll make you clean your mouth."

Su Chao slapped her across the face.

Of course, I didn't use much force, otherwise it would have been plastered directly onto the wall.

"If I win Best Actress, I'll kowtow to you! I'll kowtow to you in public!"

Zhou Xun suddenly said something.

One sentence was enough to silence Su Chao.

Just because she won an award doesn't mean you have to ship her?
Haha~
Then you'll have to kowtow many times!

I hope you won't regret what you said today.

The next day, Zhou Xun packed her things and left.

Most of the people in the training class knew what was going on, after all, Zhou Xun had been called over by Chen Kaige last night and sat with the crew of "Temptress Moon" all night.

When the students who went to the karaoke bar came back, everyone knew that she had been chosen by Chen Kaige to act in a movie.

That's Chen Kaige from "Farewell My Concubine"!
Given his appearance, the fact that Zhang Ziyi compared him to Su Chao shows just how talented he must be.

Su Chao did not go to see him off.

He went fishing early in the morning.

In the past, he was never disturbed while fishing, but this time his pager kept ringing.

It's obvious that this is due to the impact of the new song's release last night.

Su Chao was not complacent about this; in fact, he was somewhat dissatisfied.

It's only six or seven in the morning!
What's the point of these people using pagers?

He scared all his fish away, and he couldn't get them back even by shouting loudly.

Sigh, another day for the Air Force.

Fortunately, I still have five yuan as a safety net, which I can use to buy steamed buns.

It's like the system treated him to breakfast.

After fishing, I went back to teach the students. After a week of news, the students seemed very restless.

If I can act as the lead in a movie with a great director, what does it matter whether I go to school or not?

"Everyone, I know what you're thinking?"

"It's terrible to fail yourself, but it's even more heartbreaking to see your friends succeed. Now that Zhou Xun has been chosen by Chen Kaige, do you think you can do it too?"

"But you need to understand one thing: she was chosen by Chen Kaige because she deserved it, and the fact that you weren't chosen doesn't mean you lacked opportunities."

"A smart person should seize the opportunities at hand, instead of dreaming of a windfall."

"I don't know if you've noticed, but the way I teach Zhou Xun is different from how I teach you. The teaching methods and content are different."

"Because Zhou Xun is more gifted. She is a natural screen sprite. She doesn't need to deliberately learn to be a good actress."

"Therefore, I advised her not to pursue a formal academic path. What I taught her was to inspire her to unleash her own spirituality..."

Su Chao had no choice but to do some ideological and political work with the trainees.

Being a school principal is really not easy.
