Which top celebrity doesn't support a few female stars?

Xu Qingyi no longer cared about Li Zhou's money-grubbing attitude.

She simply looked at Li Zhou, her eyebrows slightly raised, and said, "We're all so familiar with each other, there's no need to pretend to be so mercenary every time."

"Settling the copyright fee in advance is at most a way of returning the favor; I just don't want you to say I'm heartless behind my back."

Li Zhou simply listened.

He never badmouths his boss behind his back... He usually either curses him to his face or curses him in his heart.

After a slight pause, Xu Qingyi continued, "I read every single one of Yang Sisi's daily work emails..."

"For example, you suddenly dragged other top celebrities into this mess, creating a huge media frenzy, which was probably also to help promote Miao Yin's new song..."

Li Zhou's eyes twitched as he listened, unable to resist the urge to gossip: "Boss, do you rarely date...?"

"Who said that!" Xu Qingyi vehemently denied it. "The number of people chasing me could circle the entire planet at least three or four times..."

Before Xu Qingyi could finish speaking, Li Zhou was already muttering to himself, "No wonder you're so good at comforting yourself..."

She comes from a very wealthy family, has excellent upbringing, lives an easy life, is kind-hearted, and has never been in a relationship or learned how to behave...

I'm not the kind of person who enjoys internal conflict. When I encounter something unpleasant but doesn't involve my principles or bottom line, I simply try to appease myself.

Of course, in Xu Qingyi's view, this was simply Li Zhou's wishful thinking.

As a business owner, she believes she should learn to forgive the hypocrisy of her valued business partners occasionally.

Especially since this person is a top influencer.

Therefore, Xu Qingyi didn't dwell on Li Zhou's monologue, but instead clearly stated: "Trust the company; it will stand behind you and support you."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhou immediately sat up straight.

He originally intended to show his overwhelming gratitude, but unfortunately, his emotional shift was too slow, and he couldn't keep up with Boss Xu's rapid-fire thinking.

After chatting for a couple more minutes, Li Zhou casually mentioned, "Wang Juan from Tencent Video contacted me yesterday, hoping to deepen our cooperation in film and television..."

Originally, he wanted to sort things out himself first, then exchange opinions with Zhang Qiming, and then negotiate with Wang Juan.

However, since it's rare to encounter Boss Xu taking the initiative to pay attention to company affairs, we might as well just hand it over to her and fully trust her wisdom.

Li Zhou did not hide anything and repeated all the conditions proposed by Wang Juan.

After listening, Xu Qingyi glanced at Li Zhou again, then seemed to realize something: "You probably... have lost interest in acting in TV dramas, right?"

She could tell from Li Zhou's words that he just wanted to use Wang Juan to access resources from Tencent Video so that he could promote her.

Li Zhou, of course, didn't mince words, frankly admitting, "Yes. In the entertainment industry, film actors are naturally a cut above television actors..."

"If I could star in a critically acclaimed and commercially successful movie... then all the celebrities under 40 in the Chinese entertainment industry would have to bow their heads respectfully before me!"

After listening attentively, Xu Qingyi thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have a specific plan?"

"There's a plan, though not very specific," Li Zhou replied honestly. "Based on my optimistic estimate, preparations can begin by the end of the year..."

He briefly shared some of his ideas and visions.

First, Li Zhou believes that he needs to observe, record, and practice to determine which type of role he is more suited to.

Whether it's modern city life, science fiction, ancient martial arts, fantasy, mythology, etc., different themes require completely different appearances.

For example, some people are naturally unsuitable for period costumes, and therefore are not well-suited for period dramas.

Li Zhou can only be certain that he is absolutely suited for modern dramas.

Secondly, Li Zhou wanted to provide the script himself, selecting the main creative team as he does now with television drama production, thus having absolute say. However, he also hoped that the director and other key creative personnel would possess extremely high artistic standards, able to recognize and dare to point out problems in his performance…

Ideally, the director should also possess exceptional acting skills.

In particular, they were able to grasp and fully highlight the unique spiritual qualities of Li.

Finally, Li Zhou hopes that this film will receive an overall rating of at least 8 points and gross at least 35 billion yuan...

After listening with great interest to Li Zhou's personal expectations, Xu Qingyi was delighted: "That's right. That's the kind of ambition you should have as a top star."

"However, you have to understand that nothing in this world can only be done once, nor does everything have to be done perfectly in one step."

"Don't let these emotions hold you back."

After pausing for a moment, Xu Qingyi smiled and said, "You're still young, don't think falling down is so terrible."

"In your words, even if you collapse to the point of being universally condemned, I still have the ability to make you popular again."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhou immediately realized: "So... I have at least two opportunities to act recklessly?"

"Thank you so much, boss. You've done me a great favor. I'll be your servant in my next life."

Xu Qingyi: "..."

Fine, if you insist on interpreting it that way, that's fine too. Let it be.

...

……

A little after 10 a.m., observer Xiao Li returned to the set of "Give Me Your Light" to continue her observation work.

Before they knew it, it was lunchtime. Unlike yesterday, Li Zhou finally got to eat the crew's boxed lunch this time.

The food was quite good.

Three meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and one soup.

As usual, Li Zhou ate while listening to his assistant Yang Sisi tell all sorts of gossip...

"Currently, entertainment-related discussions on major social media platforms are extremely popular, with all topics trending on their respective popularity lists..."

"Song Mingche's studio issued a special statement, the main purpose of which was to advocate against black PR and black articles. However, the wording was a bit strange, which triggered various rational analyses from netizens, with some even saying that he was 'crying wolf'."

"The other two top male celebrities haven't made any public moves yet, seemingly completely unconcerned..."

"..."

In general, after izhou and Xiaoheizi got involved, the Chinese entertainment industry was thrown into turmoil, and public opinion was not easy to calm down.

The current general trend is that entertainment netizens are basically just watching for fun, while fans and haters of the top male celebrities are trying to set things right.

Among Chinese celebrities, apart from Song Mingche's studio issuing a statement, there has been no other activity.

To put it another way, even celebrity marketing activities on Weibo have decreased significantly compared to usual.

According to optimistic estimates from various parties in the Chinese entertainment industry, this wave of public opinion will take at least half a month to gradually subside.

As an ordinary, crippled top star, Li Zhou could only choose to focus on his own affairs, not pay attention to or participate in anything, and only listen to gossip.

……

In the afternoon, Li Zhou was continuing to observe the actors' performances on set when Yang Sisi suddenly gave him a hurried report...

"Miss Ke has arrived."

Just three minutes later, Li Zhou, sitting under the parasol, saw Ke Miaoyin, who was still youthful and beautiful.

"Brother Li, I'm on vacation!"

Li Zhou: "Congratulations."

After chatting for a while, mainly listening to Ke Miaoyin chatter on about her recent life, Li Zhou jokingly asked, "Ready to endure the hardships of singing practice?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ke Miaoyin stood at attention and solemnly declared, "Please rest assured, Brother Li, I'm always ready!"

Her gaze was so firm, it was as if she were joining the Party.

"..."

It must be said that the appearance of female college student Ke Miaoyin on set not only did not cause trouble for Li Zhou, but also relieved the boredom of the observer Xiao Li at that moment.

Unlike yesterday, today's observations were completely fruitless... which is of course normal.

Yesterday was Li Zhou's first time visiting the film set to observe the actors' performances, so he felt he gained something from everything he saw.

Today, with the same group of actors and the same performance style, there was no sudden major breakthrough, so naturally, the results were meager.

In contrast, Ke Miaoyin's constant chatter and energy effectively diluted the unpleasant smell that Li was currently carrying...

……

A few days later, on Thursday the 26th.

At 9 a.m., Ke Miaoyin once again entered the recording studio inside Shengshi Entertainment for her 69th attempt at recording the vocals for the song...
