Minglong Youth: Shared House with Cheng Yushan and Bian Xiaoxiao

Chapter 189 The Short Play Project Begins

Although I was admitted to Qingbei, this is not the end, everything has just begun.

In the entire eleventh class, Bian Xiaoxiao had the worst material conditions, and she studied broadcasting and hosting, which was quite expensive. Once she attended an event, she had to buy cosmetics and gifts, not to mention other things. These alone were not something Bian Xiaoxiao could afford.

When she was in high school, she also hung out with Zhou Chen and even participated in "Sound into the Heart". In theory, even if it was just a live broadcast, it could bring in some income.

But after thinking it over, Bian Xiaoxiao decided that it would be better to continue hanging out with Zhou Chen.

Only when she follows Zhou Chen does she feel at ease.

"A plan to get rich?"

Cheng Yushan, who had not taken it seriously at first, brightened up when he heard the word "get rich" and turned to look at Zhou Chen.

"Yes, Zhou Chen, should we set up a plan to make a fortune?"

Bian Xiaoxiao was short of money, so Cheng Yushan naturally was short of money too.

Although Zhou Chen is responsible for everything now, to be honest, Cheng Yushan doesn't feel good about it.

If I could also have the ability to make money, at least I wouldn’t have to drag Zhou Chen down.

"That's it..."

Looking at the two little money-grubbers in front of him, Zhou Chen couldn't help but wipe his nose.

Yes, I am not short of money. Even if I stop writing, the monthly manuscript fee is still the same. But Bian Xiaoxiao and Cheng Yushan are different. They really need their own way to make money.

"Yushan, Xiaoxiao, do you remember the skit I proposed to you when we were in high school?"

Zhou Chen thought for a moment and couldn't help but look at the two of them and said.

Yeah, skits.

When he was in high school, Zhou Chen had plans to shoot the film, but the schedule was tight and the workload was heavy in his senior year, and the live broadcast alone was so popular that it was eventually abandoned.

But it's different now.

Now I am in college, especially in the first and second years, I have plenty of time to arrange.

If we could try shooting some short dramas, maybe we could create a trend.

"Skip? You mean, let's act out a play?"

Hearing this, Cheng Yushan and Bian Xiaoxiao immediately became interested.

"Yes, I'm responsible for the script. You guys are so good-looking, you can be actors. Then, we can invite a few people who are good at filming and editing to work with you."

Zhou Chen's thoughts soon became clear.

"This is a time when various clubs are recruiting people, so we should take this opportunity to gather our own team. Once the skit is popular, it will only take a few minutes to make a fortune."

In this world, although there are many entertainment programs and countless classic film and television dramas, short dramas have not yet appeared.

Zhou Chen remembered that when he traveled through time, the short play was very popular in his original world. The recharge amount alone could reach tens of millions in one day!

Although the performance in the short play is exaggerated, it has a fast pace and is very exciting. It perfectly combines the advantages of short videos and TV dramas. In a sense, it is equivalent to adapting online novels into film and television.

Besides, you have to do something in college. Otherwise, it would be so boring to study every day.

“That’s fine, I support it!”

Bian Xiaoxiao was the first to express her opinion.

Although she couldn't see any future, as long as it was Zhou Chen doing it, there would definitely be no problem.

“I have to support it.”

Cheng Yushan also quickly expressed his opinion.

"Okay, then I'll make the arrangements first!"

Zhou Chen looked at the two of them as if he was already the boss of a company.

"Bian Xiaoxiao, you are responsible for writing an application to establish a short play club and getting the school to agree to the establishment of our club as soon as possible. This is the basis."

"no problem!"

Bian Xiaoxiao jumped for joy.

I thought to myself, he is worthy of being Zhou Chen.

Other students only want to join other clubs, but Zhou Chen actually wants to set up a club. This has a completely different meaning.

"what about me?"

Cheng Yushan couldn't wait to look at Zhou Chen.

"You are responsible for designing the promotional poster for our club, as well as the conditions for recruiting people. This is also very important."

Zhou Chen said lightly.

"As ordered!"

When Cheng Yushan heard that she had something to do, her face was as bright as a flower.

The next two days were another boring military training life.

During breaks, several coaches would gather people together and let the students perform their talents.

However, they soon discovered that whenever there was a talent show, everyone's eyes were on Zhou Chen.

There was no way. Although many of these top students at Qingbei University were talented, they dared not show off their skills in front of the genius Zhou Chen.

Therefore, Zhou Chen could only be carried by everyone to the circle and sing his famous songs.

Of course, only at this time would those originally shy girls muster up the courage to come out and dance with Zhou Chen.

Fortunately, this kind of day finally came to an end with the last military training performance.

All the students who participated in the military training breathed a sigh of relief.

"Zhou Chen, the school Youth League Committee has rejected our application again!"

That day, Bian Xiaoxiao took advantage of the time to eat and put the application form in front of Zhou Chen.

"I have revised it several times. I did everything according to his instructions, but in the end, he said today that the school already has a film and television club and an editing club, so there is no need for a skit club..."

Bian Xiaoxiao didn't expect that things would not develop as she expected. She had already filled out the application form, but the school Youth League Committee refused to approve it.

Without approval from above, their club cannot be established, so who would be willing to follow them in performing skits?

"What a lame excuse! I think you are just kidding me."

Zhou Chen carefully read the application written by Bian Xiaoxiao and found no problem at all.

"Well, I'll go to the office this afternoon and ask again."

Everything went smoothly for Zhou Chen over the past year, but he didn't expect that he would be thwarted just after entering university.

After lunch and a short rest, Zhou Chen came to the office of the school Youth League Committee.

"Leader, I want to know why our club's application was not approved."

Zhou Chen walked straight up to a bald man and took out the application form.

"Sketch Club?"

Huang Jianxiang took a look at the application form, then looked at the young man standing in front of him, and his brows couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Didn't I tell you this this morning? Our school already has a film and television club, an editing club, and even a script club. Why don't you just join these clubs? Why do you want to set up a separate short play club?"

Huang Jianxiang said bluntly.

He naturally recognized that the person standing in front of him was the legendary Zhou Chen.

Ever since Zhou Chen appeared at Qingbei University, the atmosphere at Qingbei University seems to have been distorted these days.

In theory, setting up a club would have no impact on him at all. After all, he would only need to allocate a classroom at most. But the reason he refused was simply because he disliked Zhou Chen.

Haha, it’s just singing a few songs, and you want to set up a club in the school. Do you think the school is owned by your family?

Chapter 190 Goodbye Ji Linlin

"Teacher Huang, I think we should make this clear."

"Our short play club is more than just a club. What we shoot can be profitable online. We can even say that this is a business plan. This is completely different from the film and television clubs and editing clubs in the city that are purely for hobbies."

Zhou Chen frowned.

He didn't know if it was intuition or what, but he always felt that the teacher Huang in front of him had an inexplicable hostility towards him.

“Oh, you still want to start a business…”

Huang Jianxiang said calmly, flipped through Zhou Chen's application form in a pretentious manner, and then shook his head.

"But it doesn't conflict with what I said. Your club needs talents in film and television, right? You need talents in editing, right? There is too much duplication with other clubs, so I suggest you join other clubs. You can also start your own business!"

Go ahead, Huang Jianxiang looked at Zhou Chen with a smile.

Little guy, I don’t care how popular you are outside, but to me, if I say no, you can’t.

"Hey, what's going on? Why is it so lively?"

However, at this moment, a pleasant voice suddenly came from outside the office.

Huang Jianxiang, who was about to continue suppressing Zhou Chen, stood up immediately when he heard the voice.

"Oh my, it's Teacher Ji. How come you're here? Come on, come on, please take a seat!"

"Teacher Ji?"

Zhou Chen thought the voice sounded familiar, but when he turned around, he was stunned for a moment.

This is not Teacher Ji at all, it is clearly his Aunt Ji Linlin.

My goodness, Ji Linlin just announced her retirement from the entertainment industry, why is she here at Qingdao North University?

Moreover, it seems that he is very familiar with Huang Jianxiang?

Ji Linlin crossed her arms, winked at Zhou Chen proudly, and walked up to him in her high heels. She picked up the application form that Huang Jianxiang had put down on the table.

"Sketch Club?"

She cried out in surprise.

"By streamlining the script and filming method, we can create a ten-minute episode, which looks very interesting!"

As she spoke, she looked at Zhou Chen.

"Zhou Chen, why didn't you call me for such a good thing? I also want to film a drama recently!"

Ever since Zhou Chen left Xingzhou, Ji Linlin suddenly felt that Xingzhou was too boring, and even singing was meaningless.

After much thought, she decided to quit the music industry. It just so happened that one of her old classmates worked at Qingbei University, and after some discussion, she was invited to become a teacher in the music department at Qingbei University.

Of course, the procedures are being processed these two days, so it has not been announced yet.

When I passed by here just now, I happened to see Zhou Chen and wanted to give Zhou Chen an unexpected surprise. However, I didn't expect that Zhou Chen, who was very popular in Xingzhou, was now in trouble by Huang Jianxiang. Ji Linlin naturally couldn't just sit there and do nothing.

"Haha, if Teacher Ji wants to participate, we would be honored!"

Zhou Chen looked at Ji Linlin with a forced smile.

You are so good, Ji Linlin. You blocked me in the middle of a chat and didn’t answer my calls. Now you suddenly become a teacher at Qingbei University. Are you kidding me?

Zhou Chen even had a feeling that Ji Linlin was coming for him.

Ji Linlin didn't look at him, but turned to look at Huang Jianxiang.

"Teacher Huang, is there any problem with this application form?"

"Oh... I forgot that you two are acquaintances!"

Huang Jianxiang slapped his head and pretended to be enlightened.

"Teacher Ji, it's like this. Our Qingbei University has limited classroom resources. Many people have to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination and review. There are simply not many classrooms for them to set up clubs, and... "

Huang Jianxiang also met Ji Linlin at the teachers' gathering dinner yesterday. He didn't expect that the famous Ji Linlin would come to Qingbei to be a teacher.

He could suppress Zhou Chen at will, but he didn't dare to do that to Ji Linlin.

However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ji Linlin.
