The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 565: Difference in Identity
For example, in the Northeast, the temperature drops significantly in October, while in some places in the South, you can still wear short sleeves in October.

As far as commercial activities are concerned, the south has climate advantages, which naturally makes it easier to carry out business activities.

The National Day has just arrived, and many people are taking advantage of the holiday to go back to their hometowns to see their relatives. Among them are not only ordinary workers, but also some entertainment stars.

Jiang Qinqin is one of them. She didn't go back because there was a National Day holiday. She went back because her relatives and friends had holidays, so she chose this time to go back to her hometown and see her relatives and friends.

After the holidays, migrant workers had to return to work, and relatives and friends had to go to work. Jiang Qinqin originally planned to return to Yanjing, but something made her stay.

There was a guidance meeting to promote urban cultural construction in Chongqing City, and she was invited. It is said that this meeting was to explain the [-]th Five-Year Plan for the Development of the Western Region. At the meeting, Chongqing Satellite TV and CCTV, she agreed.

She had encountered this kind of thing before. There was a meeting on cultural construction. It would add a bit of luster for celebrities like them to participate.

She is from Chongqing City, and Jiang Qinqin is quite proud of her hometown.

So just after the National Day, she came to the Chongqing International Convention and Exhibition Center.

Before entering the door of the building, I saw a few friends, all of whom were artists from Chongqing.

They have a group of Yucheng artists, so they naturally know who will attend this meeting.

Lu Yi, Mu Tingting, Zhang Jin, and Chen Kun all came over.

Everyone is an artist. If it were any other party, they would definitely dress up to attend. However, this time they were not the protagonists. They were all dressed formally, like employees within the system.

Jiang Qinqin has retired from the entertainment industry and is taking care of her children full-time at home.

Several others are still active in the entertainment industry.

Lu Yi is very beautiful, with a weak personality, which makes people lovable just by looking at him. Unfortunately, he has always been tepid and can't even be considered a second-tier character.

Mu Tingting is equally beautiful, and her acting skills are good. She has several amazing roles, but she has never been more popular. In recent years, she has specialized in acting in thunder dramas.

Zhang Jin has already married the Queen, but he has not gone to Hong Kong Island yet. He has been acting in TV series and shows no signs of rising.

Chen Kun is the biggest star among this group of people. He has good resources in recent years, and his background is Han Sanping.

"Do you know what this is?"

Jiang Qinqin happily walked over, hugged a few girls, and then asked about business.

After all, he is a celebrity. When the meeting is over, reporters may come over to interview him. If this is a meeting and he can’t understand anything, then it’s not a shame.

Several other people arrived earlier and had already chatted.

Chen Kun then introduced the conference theme in Chongqing dialect.

Chongqing is an important area for the development of the western region. In February this year, the Twelfth Five-Year Plan was formulated.

This meeting is nominally to explain the spirit of the [-]th Five-Year Plan.

But the core is how to develop the cultural construction of Chongqing, promote tourism projects in Chongqing, and drive local economic development.

Since 2010, the Chinese City List - the tourist city recommended by global netizens, guided by the Information Office of the National Martial Arts Institute and the National Tourism Administration, has been officially voted on in the mainland.

To put it more simply, this is an officially recognized internet celebrity city.

Chongqing has not yet exerted its efforts at this time, and its popularity in the mainland is far less than that of cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, and Suzhou.

In the 2010 Internet celebrity city rankings, Chongqing only ranked tenth.

However, local leaders saw the potential of this Internet celebrity city and felt that vigorously developing urban cultural construction and enhancing the city's positive image would help promote local economic development.

Therefore, the leaders of Chongqing City attach great importance to the work of cultural construction.

Chen Kun explained and finally said: "This is a good thing. I think Chongqing is very beautiful and the tourism resources can be deeply explored."

Hearing this, the others nodded and then entered the conference center together.

They quickly arranged to sit in the cultural circle with some local writers, presenters, and traditional art experts.

On Jiang Qinqin's left is Lu Yi, and on her right is Mu Tingting.

She played mahjong until three in the morning last night. She was very sleepy at this time. Although she tried to keep her eyes open, she couldn't help but shed tears.

Mu Tingting laughed, "Sister, did you play mahjong last night?"

Jiang Qinqin nodded, and then laughed at herself: "I had an unlucky night. I lost 5000 yuan, and I didn't do anything wrong. Next time I play mahjong, I'll say goodbye first. I'll play again when I have good luck."

"Next time we play, I'm not good at it, but you can definitely win money."

"OK."

Lu Yi whispered from the side: "A reporter is coming."

I saw only a few reporters and three photographers setting up their cameras.

Some are from Chongqing Satellite TV and some are from CCTV.

Jiang Qinqin took a deep breath and tried to look more energetic.

After the large-scale promotion of smartphones, there are two biggest impacts on the entertainment industry. One is the rise in traffic, and many celebrities and artists that students like quickly become popular.

Just like Luhan, Toothpick, Korean Geng, etc., they don’t have many works, but they are popular, compared to fans.

Except for the phenomenal singer Jay Chou, super idols like Andy Lau may not be able to compare with them.

The second is to enter the era of national entertainment.

In the past, it was usually paparazzi who took photos of celebrities, but now passers-by often take photos of celebrities.In addition to the so-called offline street photography, there are also smoking, peeing on the street, or one-finger meditation, etc.

Celebrities need to be careful because they might find some ugly photos on the Internet.

Although Jiang Qinqin has withdrawn from the entertainment industry, she is a face-saving person and she does not want netizens to see her making fun of her.

10 minutes later, the meeting has not started yet.

Jiang Qinqin couldn't help but was speechless. She was holding on with a breath of air, and was about to doze off if she couldn't hold on any longer. "Why hasn't it started yet? Who is hosting the meeting?"

"Deputy mayor in charge of culture."

Mu Tingting followed, and then said: "Maybe I'm meeting a big shot."

Not only were the leadership seats on the stage empty, but the seats in the front row were also empty.

Jiang Qinqin was sleepy and wanted to find someone to chat with, so she ran out of words to ask, "Do you think there is anyone in the entertainment industry?"

The most popular person in the Chongqing entertainment circle is Chen Kun, and he is sitting next to him.As for the director, it should be Zhang Yibai, but this person is not a first-rate director.
Mu Tingting shook her head, "No, we don't have anyone with high status here."

There are no big-name directors in Chongqing, and there are no people like Xie Jin or Lao Mouzi.

Lu nodded, "Probably not."

Jiang Qinqin smiled and said: "Let's take a gamble. If not, I will treat you at noon. If there is, you can treat me later."

Mu Tingting and Lu Yi nodded.

"Sister, do you have any news?"

"Where there is no news, it's just a guess."

Several people chatted quietly.

At this moment, people entered the conference center one after another, and some people sat in the first row.

"It's about to start."

Jiang Qinqin reminded her two younger sisters, and then she saw a tall, calm-looking man who was very young and handsome compared to others around him.

This man is Li Shengyao.

Next to Li Shengyao was a man in his 50s, who was the director of the Chongqing Tourism Bureau.

"Why is Director Li here?"

Li Shengyao not only came, but also sat in the front row with several big guys from Chongqing.

"It seems that a new movie will be shot in Chongqing."

Mu Tingting followed, with an envious look on her face.

Soon after, this guidance meeting officially began. The person presiding over the meeting was the deputy mayor of Yucheng, which was considered to be very high in terms of rank.

Everyone listened carefully.

Jiang Qinqin soon heard Li Shengyao's name. In the deputy mayor's narration, she thanked Li Shengyao for his recognition and affirmation, saying that Chongqing welcomes all film and television production companies to come here to create.

The deputy mayor finished his speech quickly, and then the leader of the Department of Culture came to the stage to talk about the spirit of the meeting, and also mentioned Lee Sheng Yew.

After the leader of the Department of Culture finished speaking, the leader of the Tourism Bureau followed up and mentioned Lee Sheng Yew as usual.

Director Li's name has been mentioned three times today by the leaders. This shows that the local officials in Chongqing City attach great importance to him.

Jiang Qinqin secretly glanced at Director Li in front of her, feeling filled with emotion.

She had known Li Shengyao ten years ago and had saved Director Li's phone number, but she rarely contacted him.

In the past ten years, Director Li has gradually become a top director in the Mainland directing circle from a TV series director. No one can suppress him except Lao Mouzi.

It is said that Director Li's goal is to surpass Lao Mouzi.

Considering Li Shengyao's age and resources, this probability is still very high.

The leaders all had something to say. Fortunately, this time there was probably a CCTV reporter reporting on it. The leaders' words were relatively concise. The meeting lasted for two hours and ended with a burst of warm applause.

I saw the deputy mayor waving to Li Shengyao, and then Li Shengyao took a group photo with the deputy mayor of Chongqing, leaders of the Department of Culture, and the Tourism Bureau.

Director Li always had a smile on his face, looking neither humble nor arrogant, humble and calm.

Jiang Qinqin saw it in her eyes. Although she had never had any thoughts of pursuing an official career, she still felt that such a thing was very honorable and that Li Shengyao could indeed be on the stage.

She turned to look at the others and found that their attitudes were similar to hers.

After Li Shengyao took photos with the leaders and chatted cordially for a while, CCTV reporters came forward to interview Li Shengyao.

Just as Jiang Qinqin and others were about to leave, a reporter from Chongqing Satellite TV trotted over to interview them as a group of celebrities.

One is CCTV, and the other is Chongqing Satellite TV, which has the lowest collection rate.

Everyone knew the difference between themselves and Li Shengyao, so they did not complain and conducted interviews seriously.

That night, Jiang Qinqin saw Li Shengyao's interview on CCTV News Broadcast, and couldn't help but feel emotional again.

Lee Sheung Yew has stepped into the entertainment industry and become a real boss.
