Huayu: Were you ever a top star before writing nonsense?

Chapter 182 Cadillac, the Big One is Coming

Shanghai in late November 2007 was a constellation of stars, appearing frequently in entertainment news.

On November 23, the MTV Super Awards were held as scheduled at the Shanghai Grand Stage.

Director Feng Xiaogang appeared with the cast of "Assembly," and Zhao Benshan, known for his role in "Liu Laogen," also joined the trend.

Nicholas Tse and Paris Hilton presented the Most Stylish Male Singer in Hong Kong award, but a basic mistake occurred: before giving the audience a chance to see the nominees, they announced that the winner was Anthony Wong.

In the interview area after the awards ceremony, a reporter followed up, "You and Paris were at least a meter apart when you presented the award. Were you worried your wife would be jealous?"

Nicholas Tse emphasized, "It's not that I'm afraid of being jealous, it's just the work the organizers assigned to me."

One reporter boldly hypothesized, "If Paris wanted to marry you, what would you do?"

Nicholas Tse could only manage a wry smile: "You'll have to ask her. I'm married, and that's it, I have children."

Around noon, Shen Can browsed the entertainment news posted by Xiaofeiyang, the editor of Sohu.com, and his expression turned strange.

Shen Can felt that sometimes knowing too much can be quite enjoyable.

For example, when he looks at Nicholas Tse now, he feels the same way he does when he looks at Wang Baoqiang and Pan Yueming.

The big one is coming.

In addition to the MTV Super Awards, Jay Chou's "My Music Territory" World Tour Concert will be held at the Shanghai Stadium on the evening of November 24th.

This is Jay Chou's first large-scale solo concert in Shanghai since he established his own music company, JVR Music.

Because of this, some readers commented in the book review section: "Shen Can, will you go to Jay Chou's concert?"

"I think Jay Chou could invite Shen Can to be a guest at his concert."

"Looking forward to seeing Shen and Zhou on the same stage."

These days, although there are some guest performers at Jay Chou's concerts, overall, the concerts are not too over-the-top.

If Shen Can remembers correctly, Jay Chou and "Dirty King" Fei Yu-ching will sing "Far Away" together at tonight's concert.

Just for this one show, it's worth the money for him to watch.

However, I have a commercial performance tomorrow, and I have to leave for the performance venue in Hangzhou at 5 pm today.

The specific commercial activity was the opening ceremony of the "World Trade Center Fashion Shopping Expo". According to the client, the event also featured some singers from mainland China and Hong Kong, such as Jin Sha and Miriam Yeung.

The opening ceremony will begin at 9:00 AM tomorrow, with each singer performing 2-3 songs.

Shen Can understood the client's intention: they wanted to use the celebrity's popularity to attract more consumers, and also to make it an important part of the opening ceremony's artistic performance.

Shen Can rested for a while, then logged into his blog and posted an announcement.

Dear family, I will be traveling to Hangzhou tomorrow morning at 9:00 AM to attend the opening ceremony of the Hangzhou World Trade Center Fashion Shopping Expo, where I will also be performing "The Ordinary Road" for the first time.

In fact, long before Shen Can issued the announcement, the organizers had already announced the names of the celebrities who would be participating in the opening ceremony of the exhibition online in batches, but Shen Can's name was announced at 1 p.m.

This is why there isn't much discussion about it online yet; the speed of information dissemination on the internet wasn't as fast as it is in later years.

Another point is that many netizens who saw the news and had time to go to the scene quietly chose to remain silent.

The reason is simple: given Shen Can's current popularity, if this news spreads, countless people will want to go to the event, and it will be difficult to even get a chance to enter.

Of course, the best choice is to keep quiet and make a fortune.

It's well known that tickets to Jay Chou's concerts are extremely difficult to obtain, so how much less expensive can Shen Can's commercial performances be? In fact, you don't even have to pay to listen to his songs.

Some enthusiastic fans have already started their journey to Hangzhou.

Shen Can's announcement at this moment was actually arranged with the organizer, in order to coordinate with the organizer's promotional schedule.

Shen Can could tell that the organizers were in a very conflicted state; they wanted a large number of people, but they were also afraid of having too many people.

A large number of people will inevitably put enormous pressure on security.

If a crisis such as crushing or stampede occurs, the organizers will not be able to afford it, and even people within the system will be affected.

So he was told not to release the announcement too early.

The main focus should be on people who live nearby; those who live far away are not recommended. Ideally, the visitors should be from cities with strong spending power, such as Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Diaozhou, Nanjing, and Shanghai.

From this perspective, the organizers also knew just how terrifying Shen Can's popularity was.

Shortly after Shen Can posted the article on his blog, the entire blog instantly went viral.

Holy crap!!!!

"You're pulling a surprise attack again! Why do you always do this?!"

"Shen Can knows what a surprise is."

The first performance of "The Ordinary Road"? In Hangzhou???

"Huh?? I just got back from a trip to Hangzhou! I'm so upset!!! Why didn't you post this sooner? I feel like I missed out on a fortune!!"

"People in Hangzhou are overjoyed; they're taking tomorrow off!!"

"I'm in Nanjing, grabbing tickets right now!!"

"Damn it! Are all the big bosses in Shanghai broke? Shen Can has such high popularity, yet they didn't invite him to any commercial performances, and as a result, Hangzhou stole his first performance of 'The Ordinary Road'! Aaaaaaah!"

"On the 22nd, Chevrolet held a star-studded concert called 'Sound Beyond the Future' in Guangzhou. It was fantastic, but unfortunately I didn't have time to go. Unexpectedly, Shen Can's second commercial performance was near my home. Indeed, smiling girls are always lucky!"

'

Shen Can didn't check the fans' comments. He stayed at Blue Phoenix Company for a while longer, and seeing that everything was normal after the release of "Underwater", he prepared to go home.

Actually, he didn't need to come today. His senior sister said she had something important to discuss with him, but it turned out to be just a bit of a "verbal dispute".

That was a complete waste of energy.

"You're going to Hangzhou this time, shall I drive you there?"

Just as Shen Can was about to leave, Xu Xinran knocked on the door. After receiving Shen Can's permission, she pushed the door open and entered, then closed it behind her.

Shen Can looked at Xu Xinran and said, "No need. It's in Hangzhou anyway. I can just take the high-speed train there. The organizers have covered the accommodation and round-trip transportation."

The Shanghai-Hangzhou high-speed rail line opened in early 2007, but it is not a high-speed rail line. It takes about two hours to travel from Shanghai to Hangzhou.

With future speed improvements, the travel time could be reduced to within one hour.

His accommodation in Hangzhou has also been arranged by the organizers. In other words, all he needs to do is go there.

As for the filming crew he arranged, they had other work to do and would not be driving to Hangzhou until evening, and they would not be staying with him.

Shen Can decided to go ahead by himself.

"Okay, be careful when you're out and about." Xu Xinran blinked her beautiful big eyes, then leaned back against the door, bit her luscious red lips, and slightly bent her right leg, which was wearing jeans.

Shen Can then noticed that his senior sister was holding a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

He saw his senior sister staring intently at him. Then, she put on her glasses, pulled up her right trouser leg, revealing black stockings at the ankle of her high heel.

A widow, a girl with glasses, and pantyhose?

Are you trying to show me how to build items?

Shen Can said directly, "It's not safe for me to bring you along."

Xu Xinran smiled, her eyes alluring.

More than an hour later, Shen Can returned to his rented room.

At this moment.

Two suitcases were already placed in the center of the living room.

"We're only going for two days, do we really need to bring two suitcases?" Shen Can walked to the side of the suitcases.

When he went to the capital last time, Zhao Ji was unable to go, so this time, since he had the opportunity to go to Hangzhou, they agreed to go sightseeing together.

He has already told the organizers that he will bring a female assistant and ask them to book an extra room.

Li Jinming glanced at Shen Can and said dejectedly, "I have no human rights."

"You're going too? Didn't you say you weren't going?" Shen Can asked, her eyes filled with doubt.

"I was worried that it would affect your relationship, but then I thought, if you two, a man and a woman, were to be spotted by fans, it could easily lead to misunderstandings."

I'm different. Now many people inside and outside the industry know that I'm your agent, so it's normal for me to accompany you on outings, right?

As for Sister Ji, I can explain it as my best friend, just your friend. Two women and one man traveling together, those gossip reporters and fans won't think too much about it.

Shen Can:

That seems to make sense, but it's not necessarily true.

He recalled the impending "gate" incident, which also involved one man and two women.

Zhao Ji said gently to Shen Can, "If Jin Ming wants to go, let her go. Her ticket is already bought, and she'll sleep in the same room with me tonight."

Shen Can nodded.

He didn't care anyway; since Zhao Ji had no objections, he had no objections either.

He had gotten used to ignoring Li Jinming, this third wheel.

Of course, you have to be more discreet when you're out and about and not show affection in public too often.

"I have a surprise for you," Zhao Ji added.

next second.

Zhao Wu smiled sweetly and pulled a key from her jeans pocket—a car key with a BMW logo prominently displayed. "Where did this come from?" Shen Can asked, taken aback.

If it were someone else, he might have suspected that it was just a lighter, but this was something Zhao Ji took out—as everyone knows, she is a rich woman, a very wealthy woman.

"Of course I bought it." Zhao Ji walked gracefully towards Shen Can: "I saw that you often went out and worked too hard, so I simply bought a car. However, the car is still in my name now. Once you get your driver's license, I will transfer the ownership to you."

Shen Can embraced her, his heart filled with emotion.

If fans of "iPartment" knew how good Miss Zhao was to them, they would definitely grit their teeth and curse: You deserve to die.

"Thank you." In front of Li Jinming, Shen Can kissed Zhao Ji's forehead. "However, you should drive this car yourself. I have money now and can buy my own car." Shen Can said.

He remembered that before Zhao Ji retired from the entertainment industry in his previous life, some entertainment media reported that she drove a BMW X5, which showed that she really liked BMWs and would not take what others loved.

Shen Can wasn't very interested in BMW; he wanted to buy a Cadillac instead.

—The imperial carriage of the Emperor Yuhuang.

It wasn't that he didn't want to support domestic brands, but rather that domestic cars in 07 were simply not up to par, with prominent quality problems and particularly serious safety issues.

"But I already said this was a surprise for you." Zhao Ji's beautiful eyes met Shen Can's eyes at close range. Shen Can's hand wrapped around her waist, and Li Jinming secretly pursed his lips.

"It's okay, just consider it a surprise from me, like the car I gave you after you gave me one," Shen Can said with a light laugh.

"Um?

'

Zhao Ji was a little confused, feeling like his brain couldn't keep up with Shen Can's routine.

You'll give me my car?

at the same time.

Online, Shen Canxin's newly published blog is having an increasingly significant impact.

From the Shanghai Theatre Academy campus forum to Tianya forum, from Shen Can's forum to Li Yi's forum—everyone is going crazy, everyone is boiling over.

"The Ordinary Road" is the closing song of the "I'm Crazy for Singing" storyline in the novel "The All-Round Artist," and it is highly anticipated by book fans, music fans, and casual fans alike.

I originally thought I would have to wait until the day after tomorrow, the 26th, to hear it, but Shen Can suddenly posted on his blog that he would be performing tomorrow, and it would be a live performance.

Moreover, Shen Can has never held a concert. Nowadays, the only way to get up close and personal with him and hear him sing live is through commercial performances.

In an instant, countless people were excited!

Soon after, plane and train tickets to Hangzhou from the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai areas sold out quickly, and there were even fans from Chengdu, Beijing, Chongqing, Guangzhou and Shenzhen who bought tickets specifically to travel to Hangzhou.

"Brothers in Shanghai, let's draw our swords! Let's see who can snag a train ticket!!"

"What the hell? Don't you guys go to work? You're animals!"

"Attack Hangzhou, steal my husband!"

"They've gone mad! They've all gone mad!!"

"We've arrived in Hangzhou. Could the organizers arrange for Shen Can to sing a few more songs?"

"Damn, I'm staring at the screen getting anxious. Why are you guys so rich and have so much free time?"

"I'm so torn, should I go to Jaylen's concert or Shen Can's commercial performance?"

"Dude, this isn't a choice, I want it all! The concert starts around 7 p.m., I'll go back to the hotel and go to sleep right away, then drive straight to the Hangzhou Convention and Exhibition Center at 5 a.m. tomorrow."

"Why do I have a feeling that Shen Can and Jie Lun are going head-to-head again? Are they going to have a live performance competition this time?"

"Goodness, now that you mention it, I feel the same way. What's outrageous is that Shen Can is outnumbered again this time. He definitely doesn't have as many songs at commercial performances as he does at Jay Chou's concerts."

Shen Can was unaware of what was happening online.

""

He, Zhao Ji, and Jin Ming went to Shanghai Railway Station to take a high-speed train to Hangzhou.

Although Zhao Ji has bought a car and has a driver's license, she's actually a novice driver with long hair, inexperienced and hesitant to drive on the highway. Shen Can, on the other hand, is an experienced driver, but he doesn't have a license.

One-track mind becomes a double-edged sword.

As for Li Jinming, this girl hasn't even learned to drive yet.

As night fell, a cold wind blew through the streets of Hangzhou.

As December approaches, the weather is actually not much different from winter.

Upon checking into the hotel, Shen Can felt that Hangzhou was colder than Shanghai, but fortunately the weather was alright and it wasn't raining.

Shen Can looked up at the night sky.

"What would you like to eat?" Li Jinming asked, blinking.

Although the organizers covered the accommodation and round-trip transportation, they did not include meals, which had to be arranged by the participants themselves.

"Hot pot, please." Shen Can said without hesitation.

-

"Aren't you afraid of getting an upset stomach during tomorrow's concert?" Zhao Ji asked with a smile.

Her boyfriend has a real love for hot pot.

Shen Can waved his hand: "It's only the length of those three songs, don't worry."

By the time we got back to the hotel, it was already 8:30 p.m.

Inside the elevator, a beautiful woman with a great figure and long hair, wearing a mask, was curiously looking at Shen Can with her beautiful eyes. Although Shen Can was also wearing a mask, her intuition told her that it was Shen Can.

Her actions displeased Zhao Ji, but he took a breath and forced himself not to lash out.

"I'm the assistant," she thought to herself.

At this moment, Shen Can also noticed the long-haired beauty, who then took off her mask.

Their eyes met, and before she could speak, Shen Can recognized her.

—Jinsha.
