Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: This Top Star Has Real Achievements
Chapter 78 Welcoming the Guests...
Midway through the dinner, Li Xiang took a moment to call Sister Zhou and Chef Chen.
After the dinner party ended, the two were already waiting in their car outside the restaurant.
When Sister Zhou heard that Li Xiang would be acting alongside the Best Actress, she was overjoyed and treated Kara Hui with exceptional hospitality, helping her carry her bag and showing her concern for her well-being.
When we arrived at the apartment in Huace, the room had already been cleaned and tidyed up, with daily necessities neatly arranged, and even the humidifier was turned on in advance.
Seeing this, Hui Yinghong couldn't help but nod in approval, and she also had a higher opinion of Huace's ability to handle things.
"Sister Hong, you can rest here tonight." Li Xiang said as he helped Hui Yinghong carry her luggage into the bedroom.
"These next couple of days, Sister Zhou and Xiao Jiang will show you around Beijing. Once you've settled in, we'll find some time to discuss the script in detail."
Kara Hui smiled and replied, "Then I'll take a few days off first. We can discuss this properly when you have time, but don't let it interfere with your classes."
"Attending classes isn't a big problem. It's just that the school is about to celebrate its 60th anniversary, and there are a lot of miscellaneous things to do lately, so I need to manage my time carefully."
"Beijing Film Academy's anniversary celebration?" Kara Hui's eyes lit up immediately. Beijing Film Academy is renowned in the industry, and she had naturally heard of it before.
Suddenly, Li Xiang had a flash of inspiration and leaned closer, saying, "Sister Hong, why don't you go and join in the fun on the school anniversary?"
There will definitely be many senior figures coming. If you can get to know them, it will definitely be of great help to your future development in mainland China.
These words were exactly what Kara Hui wanted to hear.
Although her contract is still with TVB, it is about to expire, and she has long wanted to stop being stuck in the world of television dramas.
It was only after she won the Best Actress award in 09 that she was finally able to take on some film roles freely, but the company's cut was still very high, so she had long planned to leave.
If one can take advantage of the Beijing Film Academy's anniversary celebration to make connections with people in the mainland film and television industry, it would indeed be a rare opportunity.
However, she was a little embarrassed to agree on her own initiative.
Seeing the hesitation on her face, Li Xiang understood what was going on and quickly added, "Sister Hong, you're about to film Uncle Wang's movie."
Besides, Uncle Wang, Director Zhang, and I are all graduates of the Beijing Film Academy, so your presence won't seem out of place at all. Just consider it joining in the fun; it's always good to meet more people.
Kara Hui gently rubbed the sofa armrest with her fingertips, clearly having taken Li Xiang's words to heart, and nodded, saying, "Then... then I'll trouble you."
"What's the trouble! You have superb acting skills and are a film queen. You will be treated with respect wherever you go."
Sister Zhou, who was standing nearby, quickly chimed in, "Don't worry, Teacher Hui, I'll be there on the school anniversary. If you need anything, just let me know."
Kara Hui was finally relieved, her eyes crinkling with smiles, and she said decisively, "Okay, it's settled then."
The next morning, as soon as Li Xiang arrived at school, he went to find Teacher Huang Lei and told him about Hui Yinghong's plan to attend the school anniversary celebration.
Upon hearing this, Teacher Huang immediately relayed the message to the school.
Not long after, the school's administrative staff came to find Li Xiang, asking for details with great curiosity.
Li Xiang had to give a brief explanation, saying that he and Uncle Wang were about to collaborate on a film with Kara Hui, and that Kara Hui happened to be in Beijing to sign a contract, so he invited her to attend the school's anniversary celebration.
The teacher was completely taken aback by Versailles's words, secretly marveling at the young man's considerable abilities.
Having just finished working with Zhang Yimou, she's now acting alongside a Hong Kong Film Awards Best Actress, and the director is none other than the veteran director Uncle Wang. She's definitely trying to establish herself in the Fifth Generation film industry.
As I thought about it, I couldn't help but feel envious. Such luck and connections were something that others couldn't match.
He didn't dare delay and quickly reported the matter to the school's higher-ups.
Back in 2010, the Hong Kong Film Awards Best Actress held considerable weight in the film industry, and the influence of the Hong Kong film circle had not yet completely faded.
When the school's top officials learned of this opportunity to add luster to the school's anniversary celebrations, they were overjoyed.
He immediately ordered that Kara Hui's name be added to the guest list, and that the guest list was of a high caliber.
Li Xiang, who facilitated the connection, naturally attracted the special attention of the school leaders.
This student is not only capable, but also knows how to secure resources for the school. He is sensible and competent, and the leaders have secretly developed a better impression of him.
Time flies, and the school anniversary is here in the blink of an eye.
Li Xiang found it troublesome to run back and forth, so he had already taken the clothes that Wang Ya had prepared for him back to his dormitory and put them away.
Besides, he is already incredibly handsome, and his short hair doesn't require any special styling. Moreover, being on campus, maintaining a clean and refreshing student appearance is the most appropriate thing to do.
He didn't need to worry about Kara Hui's side at all; Sister Zhou had already coordinated with Wang Ya and prepared suitable clothes, enough to handle this kind of occasion.
Early that morning, the entire school sprang into action.
After a simple cleaning of the campus, everyone went about their assigned tasks, working busily and enthusiastically.
Li Xiang was also summoned by Chen Bing early in the morning and assigned the task of being a greeter.
As time went on, many alumni and partners arrived one after another.
It seemed as if everyone had made a pact: those with less fame arrived first, and then the heavyweight guests took their turn.
As for Li Xiang, he only needed to stand guard at the door, and when he saw a guest, he would smile and nod to greet them, and then guide them to the appropriate location.
Many people recognized Li Xiang, the "Zhang Yimou's leading man," after all, his current popularity is higher than that of many of the alumni present.
Seeing that he was so famous, yet still worked diligently as a greeter at the school gate, running around without any airs, they all secretly nodded in admiration.
After all, he is one of the most outstanding students at Beijing Film Academy right now.
But what everyone was thinking after scanning the crowd a few times and not seeing another equally popular student was anyone's guess.
However, Li Xiang wasn't thinking about any of that right now, because he was smiling and leading the guests around, and his smile was almost making him stiff...
As the anniversary celebration draws closer, the caliber of the guests attending is gradually increasing.
Li Xiang also spotted Yang Mi in the crowd, but compared to her later confident and charismatic demeanor, she was still lacking in both presence and overall presence at that moment.
His outfit made Li Xiang frown – a red coat paired with a beret was not a style he could appreciate.
However, Yang Mi seemed quite curious about this junior of hers, and as she passed by, she smiled and said, "The junior is really handsome."
Li Xiang simply smiled and nodded, guiding her towards the inner area.
Following closely behind was Huang Xiaoming, whose outfit was quite eye-catching: a black leather jacket paired with a V-neck top, and his short hair looked neat and energetic, making him appear quite fashionable.
He also noticed Li Xiang, and even smiled and patted him on the shoulder, casually saying a few words of encouragement. He seemed like an easy person to get along with.
So Li Xiang is completely unaware of his messy affair with Huayi. Does Huang Xiaoming even know about it?
But then I thought, even if I knew, I probably wouldn't care.
After all, he is a well-known celebrity shareholder of Huayi Brothers, and his influence is undeniable. The company has little say in who he can make friends with.
Next came Fu Dalong, who was as unassuming as an ordinary alumnus, wearing a simple jacket. He nodded to Li Xiang as he passed by.
Next up are Huang Bo, Zhang Tielin, Wenli, and others.
Each of them was a familiar face in the industry, and Li Xiang smiled and guided them one by one, keeping him extremely busy.
Just as I was busy, a small commotion suddenly came from afar.
