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

Chapter 81 You think I'm afraid of your powerful background? The stronger your background, the greater my ambition!

On Friday, October 31st, the weather was fine and sunny all the way from Guangzhou to Zhaoqing.

Li Zhou quietly watched the scenery receding outside the car window, occasionally seeing the autumn wind sweeping up fallen leaves.

Not too many.

There was no hint of the bleakness of autumn.

The outdoor temperature is just right, neither too hot nor too cold, much more comfortable than the previous two months.

Like when Li Zhou first started filming "Chinese Paladin", he was always covered in sweat every day.

Thankfully, the costume department did a very thorough job of preparation beforehand, preparing multiple sets of the same costume, otherwise—

Forget about filming any romantic scenes, just wearing the costumes would be enough to suffocate you with the smell.

This isn't a question of whether one can be dedicated to their work; it's a problem that the human sense of smell simply can't withstand it.

With his thoughts wandering, Li Zhou suddenly made a decision: "I'll align with the company and take a vacation from mid-June to the end of September."

Yang Sisi, the assistant standing next to her, responded quickly.

She doesn't need to ask why; she just needs to do it exactly as instructed.

Li Zhou also wanted to achieve his goal in one go. Whether filming or running other events in the summer, the heat would cause extra fatigue.

Why not just take a vacation, see the world, and simply enjoy life? It would also give our colleagues in the Chinese entertainment industry some breathing room, after all—

"What you learn from books is never enough; you must put it into practice to truly understand."

'

To be honest, the reason why it took Li Zhou two days to finalize the song selection was mainly because Boss Xu kept causing trouble.

Mr. Xu said that since Xiao Li hadn't seen much of the world and was both clear-headed and unclear-headed about human nature, he wanted to help Xiao Li broaden his horizons.

Despite Boss Xu's thorough warnings, Li Zhou remained stubbornly defiant: "Do you think I'm afraid you have a powerful background?"

"The bigger the background, the bigger the ambition!"

"Boss, you're really something, trying to discourage my ambition to be sexually exploited by you?"

"Do you even understand what it means to be dead if you have no dreams?"

"I, Li, am this ugly, and I was even tricked into the entertainment industry by you, boss. I have no other desires!"

Then—Li Zhou saw some things that only Asian dragons have.

The first thing I saw was an ordinary Hongqi car with a license plate that was a mix of letters and numbers, something like G6 and other random characters.

It's not a Guangdong A license plate; it's a Beijing license plate from another province.

Just as Li Zhou thought Boss Xu wanted to show him the license plate, Boss Xu pointed to the car window: "This is what I wanted you to see."

"These few sheets of paper—I think you could also call them 'vast as the sky and the earth, go wherever you want.'"

It was a gift from someone Ms. Zeng should call her cousin.

Afterwards, Li Zhou saw some other random things, but a large part of them were things that could be bought with money.

What's worth mentioning is Xu Qing's own private jet—Li Zhou had heard Boss Xu mention this before, but this was the first time he had seen the actual aircraft.

It's not that great. The main problem is that it's an old Gulfstream G650 from more than 10 years ago. Now they've already released the G800. No wonder they're saying they want to upgrade.

There is also a domestically produced C909.

I did see Xu Qingyi's father's business jet, an Airbus ACJ320neo, which is the more common business jet version of the civilian A320.

Xu Qingyi added, "Actually, my dad also comes from a good family; with your intelligence, you should understand that—"

Finally, Xu Qingyi stood on tiptoe and patted Li Zhou on the shoulder: "Little Li, you have to do a good job, my G800..."

"It's all up to you now."

"Of course, I've worked very hard. I placed the order two years ago, and it should be off the production line in about six months. Only the final payment is left, not much, 3000 million."

Li Zhou: "————"

It's not much; converted from $ to ¥, it's just over 200 million.

Li Mou can easily make three to five hundred million yuan by simply leading a film and television project; it's nothing to him.

As for wanting the company to distribute over 200 million in dividends, that's another matter—and what does it matter anyway?

As Li Zhou's thoughts wandered aimlessly, the car finally arrived at its destination.

The platform is located at an abandoned train station in the north of Zhaoqing.

Because director Chen Anqiang held a very high position in the industry and had a lot of influence, Li Zhou did not get involved in miscellaneous matters at all.

Even though Li Zhou invested his film salary as a shareholder, he also served as the producer of "A World Without Thieves".

In short—before arriving at the film set, Li Zhou didn't even know how Chen Anqiang had arranged the opening ceremony.

For example, how many entertainment media outlets were invited.

He only mentioned that they should use the opening ceremony to generate some buzz for the film in advance; Chen Anqiang handled the rest.

-

.

Right now, as soon as Li Zhou got out of the car, he saw the bustling film set.

Media reporters, armed with their cameras and microphones, lined up in a semi-circle around the stage where the filming was about to begin, creating a dense, imposing crowd.

The scene was incredibly diverse, with participants from all walks of life, far more extravagant than the opening ceremony of the "Chinese Paladin" series.

"Li Zhou—"

'

"It really is Li Zhou!"

"Teacher Li————"

Someone in the crowd shouted, and a large group of people quickly surrounded Li Zhou.

In an instant, the scene descended into chaos.

"Hello everyone—" Li Zhou waved with a smile, calmly reassuring the media, "Don't rush, let's wait for the auspicious time."

"Don't worry, I'm also a producer. I won't run away even if someone else does."

"

'

It must be noted that Li Zhou actually arrived early, and there is still about an hour before the scheduled start time.

It's 100 kilometers from Guangzhou to Zhaoqing. Even if it's all on the highway, it would still take an hour and a half to get there. We definitely can't be on time.

Chen Anqiang has a lot of influence, so the media is more enthusiastic about him. Some media outlets even arrived last night because they live far away.

..

Afterwards, Li Zhou first met with Chen Anqiang and other key members of the creative team, most of whom were familiar faces.

There was a brief exchange of pleasantries.

Several of the carefully selected veteran actors were very humble, saying they hoped Mr. Li would take good care of them in future collaborations.

These older folks really know how to talk; they made Li Zhou blush with just a few words.

That's all.

They are all national first-class actors. Although some of them only have cameo roles, they all came to support the event today.

Time flew by amidst laughter and chatter, and before we knew it, it was 10 o'clock.

Chen Anqiang personally presided over a simple, mystical process for starting the machine.

At exactly 10:19, the red cloth covering the main camera on the opening stage was lifted.

Next up was the media segment.

Chen Anqiang deviated from the procedure and directly let Li Zhou speak first.

"Hello everyone, I am Li Zhou."

"Thank you all for traveling so far to attend the launch ceremony of our film 'A World Without Thieves' —"

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Li Zhou took the initiative to introduce himself: "As everyone knows, I'm the screenwriter—"

"Of course, I'm also a lead actor."

Li Zhou's identity as a screenwriter has been hotly debated for over a month and is no longer surprising.

Moreover, some media outlets had already found relevant information about "A World Without Thieves" in the announcement information from September 25th, and saw "li" in the screenwriter column, so they were not too surprised by the screenwriter's identity.

However, even though many media reporters had guessed that Li Zhou would be the lead actor, after Li Zhou revealed his identity, the reporters still couldn't contain themselves and immediately bombarded him with questions.
