Entertainment: This top celebrity is really letting loose!

With the end of "The Temptation to Go Home," Zhou Yang has settled into a secluded life, sleeping in until she naturally wakes up during the day and sparring with Xu Shaofu at night to practice the moves of various martial arts schools. Lin Youyou also occasionally brings her girl group friends over for team battles, and she is enjoying herself to the fullest.

During this period, both Lei Mingkai and Wang Man made several phone calls to probe his attitude and bottom line regarding the new contract, but he refused each time.

Then one day at the end of December, he suddenly received a phone call: "Zhou Yang, your old friend has arrived in Shanghai. Come out right now."

Early in the morning, Jin Ran, like a fluttering sparrow, woke him up from his bed.

"What's wrong?"

Zhou Yang's arms were both under his head, with Xu and Lin Youyou both supporting his head. The former was on speakerphone while Zhou Yang was on the phone.

"Don't you know about the Golden Eagle Awards ceremony? Hurry up, our group specially went on a detour from Shanghai."

The phenomenal success of "The Temptation to Go Home" coincided with the biennial Golden Eagle Awards, which greatly excited Jin Ran, who had previously been frustrated in the film industry.

After all, Lin Pinru is definitely the leading lady in the drama, with even more screen time than the male lead, Hong Shixian. She might actually win Best Actress, which would be a huge win for her.

Upon hearing about the Golden Eagle Award, even the young woman, Ms. Xu, was extremely excited and even took the initiative to "turn over a new leaf and sing a song."

"Stop fooling around, hurry up and get dressed and get up. Those guys from CTS are already at the hotel, we're the only ones missing."

Zhou Yang pushed her away from him.

Undeterred, the young woman asked, "Do you think I can win Best Supporting Actress this time?"

Judging from her actions just now, the anger she was holding back was definitely greater than Jin Ran's.

Although the latter was not successful, she was, after all, a promising young actress that CTS had been vigorously cultivating a few years ago. On the other hand, Ms. Hsu's career and popularity were almost entirely due to her gay ex-husband, and she was almost blacklisted later.

Seeing that she wouldn't give up, Zhou Yang had no choice but to say, "There's a good chance."

The Golden Eagle Awards are one of the three major awards for television dramas. Although they have the lowest prestige, they have one advantage: all awards are determined by online voting. This is a natural advantage for popular figures like Zhou Yang.

Ellie, known for her crazy and shrewish character in "Homecoming," has also gained widespread popularity.

"it is good."

Upon hearing that there was an opportunity, the young woman quickly got out of bed and began to dress.

.

.

The annual Golden Eagle Awards officially opened on December 1st. The entire process takes about three days. The first day mainly features the entry of various film crews and artists, as well as the opening ceremony gala. The most important part, the awards ceremony, takes place on the third night.

It just so happens that this year's Golden Eagle Awards are being held in Changsha, the capital of Hunan Province. Many Hunan TV staff members were present, and He Rihuo even managed to secure a hosting position for this year's Golden Eagle Awards.

Leveraging her status as the lead singer of "The Temptation to Go Home," Zhou Yang and her entourage were greeted with enthusiastic shouts from fans and female audience members as soon as they entered the venue.

The former is still referred to as "Gege," while the latter is referred to as "Hong Shixian" with a unified tone.

Zhou Yang struck what he thought was a cool pose, smiled, and greeted them, "Hello!"

To everyone's surprise, the group of women almost simultaneously shouted at him:

"Read your lines!"

"Read your lines!"

"..."

Zhou Yang shouted again, "What lines do you want to hear?"

The group of young girls immediately exclaimed in unison, "You're so sexy..."

Zhou Yang, feeling playful, raised his hands into a megaphone shape and shouted at them, "You're all so slutty..."

The female fans, now smitten, immediately began screaming wildly.

"what!"

"Pigeon~"

"..."

As the most eye-catching production team in this year's competition, Huashi Media also attaches great importance to it. Even Director Liu, who usually dislikes public appearances, made an unprecedented move by personally leading the team, which shows how much importance they attach to it.

On the first night, after the opening ceremony of the nightclub, Ms. Xu, who had seen her ex-husband during the day, secretly slipped into Zhou Yang's room, attempting to send him a cuckold's horns from afar.

Just as they arrived, the door to the room unexpectedly rang. The two exchanged a glance, both somewhat worried, and Zhou Yang gestured for her to open the door.

"Director Liu? Director Hu, Ranran, come in quickly! Zhou Yang and I were just discussing who will win this year's major awards!"

To cover up her embarrassment, the young woman made up an excuse on the spot.

Fortunately, the three people who were visiting seemed to be busy and didn't pay much attention to her.

"Director Liu, what brings you here?"

Zhou Yang greeted him first, then nodded to Jin Ran, selectively ignoring Hu Dabiao at the end.

As soon as he sat down, Director Liu looked at him with a smile and said, "Actually, I didn't plan to come this time. The reason I came all this way is specifically for you."

"For me?"

"good."

Director Liu nodded. "After we finish talking tonight, I'll fly back to the capital first thing tomorrow morning."

"So urgent?"

"I never planned to come."

Zhou Yang had heard Gao Xiaoyu mention that this Director Liu was a long-time employee at CTS, one of the first veterans who started the business with his father, and had a lot of influence in the company.

"In that case, Director Liu, please speak frankly."

"Alright, then I won't beat around the bush. 'The Temptation to Go Home' gave all of us at CTS a huge surprise, so I came here just to ask, Xiao Zhou, do you have any new scripts on hand?"

New notebook?

Zhou Yang immediately realized that the old man had traveled all this way for the new drama.

In the past few years, Huashi Media has been almost defeated by Tangtian International in the small screen field. Now, with the success of "Going Home", screenwriter Zhou Yang has unexpectedly become their lifeline.

Zhou Yang didn't say anything. After receiving the dividends from Tencent Video and Hunan TV, he did consider starting a new drama, but later declined.

He hasn't finalized his new contract or revenue sharing with Star Entertainment yet, so rushing to start a new drama would only benefit the company.

Furthermore, the good dramas in the system's exchange shop are not cheap, and he doesn't have enough "Freedom Points" yet, so the number of scripts he can exchange for is limited.

Seeing that he kept talking, Director Liu smiled and said:

"What, are you reluctant? Don't worry, as long as the script is good, this time the chairman won't need to get involved. I can agree to all your requests regarding investment and team composition, as long as they're not excessive."

Jin Ran looked at him expectantly. She had a great chance of winning the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actress this time, but this was just the beginning. If there were similar hits in the future, she would definitely have a chance to compete for the title of Best Actress in the New Era.

"Yes, it exists, but... it's not finished yet."

Zhou Yang ultimately couldn't resist the temptation.

"Oh? What type is it?"

"It's still an urban romance genre, focusing on female perspectives, just with multiple women."

He had no idea what he wanted to film next, but after a few seconds of quick thinking, he finally came up with a plan.

Is the new drama focusing on multiple female perspectives?

Upon hearing this, Jin Ran and Xu Furen, who were standing nearby, were both overjoyed. If the new drama could continue the success of "Going Home", wouldn't they be set for life?

As actresses in the industry, what they like most are undoubtedly those dramas with strong female leads.

"How much longer until the script is finished?"

Having gotten the answer he wanted before coming, Director Liu's smile broadened.

When is a good time?

"Wait a minute, I'll go to the restroom and I'll tell you when I get back."

What does the script's completion date have to do with going to the restroom? Is this guy deliberately keeping us in suspense?

Everyone present was left speechless, both amused and exasperated by his remark.
