Treasure Island 1992, starting from the Four Little Heavenly Kings

In May, PolyGram Records launched a new artist named Zhou Xiaojie.

This is an existence that did not exist in Chen Qiming's dream.

This newcomer whom PolyGram 0 Records found from nowhere became an instant hit with his song "Loneliness". The record sold two million copies and the song became popular all over the world, making Zhou Xiaojie the most popular singer in May. One of the singers.

In mid-May, during a TV interview, Zhou Xiaojie was asked what he thought of Chen Qiming.

Zhou Xiaojie said bluntly: "Many people regard Chen Qiming as their idol and say that he is the number one singer in the Chinese music industry.

But I'm not one of those people. I don't like him at all. He is just an existence that was pushed out by the tide of the times.

If he hadn't caught up with the popularity of VCD, he wouldn't have achieved what he has achieved now.

To be honest, I feel very ashamed that I didn’t debut a few years earlier. If I could have debuted a few years earlier, I don’t know who would be ranked number one in the Chinese music scene. "

Arrogant and arrogant.

This is how Zhou Xiaojie feels.

Zhou Xiaojie's remarks caused an uproar in the media.

After all, even if many people don't like Chen Qiming, he has a lot of negative fans.

But it is undeniable that Chen Qiming's achievements in recent years are indeed unmatched.

The first Chinese singer to break into the international market, the first Asian singer to have multiple consecutive albums worth over 10 million dollars, and the first Chinese person to star in a movie that has sold hundreds of millions of dollars worldwide.

Various achievements have given Chen Qiming a large number of fans but also many people who dislike him.

But no one will deny Chen Qiming's contribution to the Chinese music scene.

Without him, the Chinese music scene would not have reached the pinnacle of its era, and millions of records would have become normalized.

Just like Jackie Chan in a dream.

No matter how many people dislike him, no one will deny his contribution to Chinese films.

Therefore, when Zhou Xiaojie's remarks came out, he was immediately boycotted and bombarded by a large number of media and celebrities.

Luo Dayou, the godfather of Baodao music, openly supported Chen Qiming in an interview: "Zhou Xiaojie is completely lost, he doesn't know how to respect a senior.

As the number one person in the Chinese music scene, Chen Qiming, even if you don't like him, you can't deny his contribution to the Chinese music scene.

It was he who successfully boosted the Chinese record market by a large margin and made countless fans accustomed to buying records.

It was also he who brought Chinese music to the world.

It was also him who made Chinese pop music take a big step forward.

Does Zhou Xiaojie dare to say that his song "Loneliness" was not inspired by Chen Qiming's "Dusk"? "

When Andy Lau attended the launch ceremony of the new movie "Black Gold" with Tony Leung Ka Fai, he said directly:

"I don't know what other people think of Chen Qiming. For me, he is the person I admire the most, whether it is music or film creation!"

In addition to Andy Lau and Luo Dayou, a lot of big shots were directly exposed because of Zhou Xiaojie's remarks.

"I don't know what is driving the trend of the times. I only know that Chen Qiming's musical attainments are very high!" - Li Zongsheng.

"Newcomers are young and energetic and don't know how to respect their seniors at all." - Aaron Kwok.

A large number of voices against Zhou Xiaojie came from the mouths of music bosses in the current Chinese music scene, which directly turned Zhou Xiaojie into a street rat.

A large number of ordinary viewers have a very bad impression of this young man who speaks so freely.

Not only that, Chen Qiming's fan club also directly took practical actions.

They gathered near Zhou Xiaojie's record signing, holding signs with words that cursed Zhou Xiaojie.

Chen Qiming even heard that when Zhou Xiaojie held a performance in Taipei, when he came on stage, the host used an interactive tone to ask the fans in the audience to shout Zhou Xiajie's name. As a result, the audience in the audience actually started shouting Chen Qiming's name in unison. In protest, Zhou Xiaojie's performance was immediately ruined.

"Chen Qiming, Chen Qiming!"

"Chen Qiming..."

"Chen Qiming..."

Singapore Plaza, today Zhou Xiaojie has a record promotion performance here.

A total of thousands of people came to the scene.

Originally, Zhou Xiaojie thought it was because he was so popular in Singapore that so many fans came.

As a result, when he came on stage, the shouts from the audience immediately made him look extremely ugly.

He glanced around the audience and saw that all the signs held by everyone belonged to Chen Qiming.

This is his performance...

In a rage, he threw down the microphone and left backstage without looking back.

"Jie Zai, what do you think of Luo Dayou's criticism of you in the media?"

"Jie Zai, as far as I know, you have had three consecutive performances where the audience was filled with Chen Qiming fans. Do you regret questioning Chen Qiming in the interview now?"

As soon as he left the backstage and before he reached the parking space, Zhou Xiaojie was blocked by a group of media.

Everyone was asking him questions in a lively tone.

Hearing these reporters' questions, Zhou Xiaojie became even more angry.

He laughed angrily, "Chen Qiming, haha, Chen Qiming, Chen Qiming is so awesome!"

Zhou Xiaojie, who was angry and dizzy, ignored the surrounding reporters and asked his bodyguards to clear the way. He squeezed through the crowd arrogantly, found his car, and got in angrily.

beep...

The phone rings.

Zhou Xiaojie, who was angry, wanted to hang up the phone, but after looking at the caller and hesitating, he chose to answer the call.

The caller was PolyGram President Zheng Donghan, who was Zhou Xiaojie’s discoverer.

He was originally a singer who lived on the streets but couldn't get ahead. If it weren't for Zheng Donghan, he wouldn't have signed with PolyGram and become a popular star with just one record.

"I have long said that you should keep your mouth shut and don't offend Chen Qiming.

Have you been hit in the head by a donkey? Who is Chen Qiming?

He is not only your predecessor, but also the record sales record holder in the Chinese music scene.

Not only that, he is also a billionaire and a big capitalist through and through.

Some people will make trouble for you because of them.

Let's see! Now that he hasn't even finished yet, there are so many media and celebrities targeting you!

What do you want me to do now..."

As soon as the call was connected, Zheng Donghan on the other end began to curse.

No wonder he was scolding.

Zhou Xiaojie is a singer that PolyGram discovered in the company last year.

Because Zheng Donghan valued him very much, he directly asked him to study in the company with his son Zheng Zhongji.

Therefore, the two have a good relationship.

At the end of last year, when Cheng Chung-kee released a record, he was attacked by Andy Chan, who was personally supporting the group, and Andy Hui.

Although the album sales are not huge, it has sold more than 400,000 copies in three places across the Taiwan Strait.

But this sales volume did not reach the goal of making Zheng Zhongji an instant hit.

Zhou Xiaojie and Cheng Zhongji studied and practiced singing together, and they have a very good relationship.

After seeing this situation, Aiwu and Wuxia also hated Chen Qiming extremely, the culprit who caused the attack on Cheng Zhongji's records and the poor performance.

Zheng Donghan knew this.

Before the release of Zhou Xiaojie's record this year, in order to prevent Zhou Xiaojie's unscrupulous remarks from offending Chen Qiming and causing the record to be sniped again, Zheng Donghan also specifically asked Zhou Xiaojie not to offend Chen Qiming.

result……

As a result, Zhou Xiaojie's record became a hit immediately after its release. Two million copies were sold in Chinese-speaking areas within a month, making him an instant hit and becoming a popular new star, alongside Jay Chou, Tao Zhe and others.

When a person becomes popular, it is inevitable that he or she will not be able to understand his or her status.

On the show, as soon as he was praised, he immediately started to criticize Chen Qiming.

"Huh... all your recent performances have been cancelled. Go back to Hong Kong first.

Don't go out recently and stay at home peacefully. I will contact Chen Qiming and try to get him to speak out and forgive you. "

After scolding, Zheng Donghan suppressed his emotions and said.

Although he was very angry at Zhou Xiaojie's indiscriminate remarks and wished he could ban him directly.

But unfortunately PolyGram has now reached its most difficult period.

Lai Lai's contract with PolyGram officially ended last year and was not renewed, so she formed her own record company. From last year to this year, the sales of several albums released by Jacky Cheung were not satisfactory.

Cheng Zhongji, who had high hopes, was also disturbed by Chen Qiming and Xu Zhian, and his reputation was second-tier.

It is no exaggeration to say that the current PolyGram really cannot produce a good singer.

Zhou Xiaojie should be regarded as the company's best sales person at present.

As long as the operation is successful, the company can immediately let him fill the vacancy of Dawn.

It's just a pity that something like this happened now.

so what.

Even if Chen Qiming is offended, PolyGram cannot give up on Zhou Xiaojie because of this.

Now that Jacky Cheung is in a slump and busy staging his musical performances, PolyGram can only focus on cultivating him.

Even for this, Zheng Donghan had to personally call Chen Qiming to apologize and ask for his forgiveness.

……

Chen Qiming did not know that Zhou Xiaojie was angered by his fans again in Singapore.

He is currently visiting the crew of "Black Gold" in Baodao.

Originally, Chen Qiming originally planned to play the villain in this drama.

But after thinking about it in the end, Chen Qiming gave up.

Just like Jackie Chan can't die even if he appears in a movie.

Andy Lau, Leslie Cheung, and Jet Li only accept the upright ones.

In this day and age, playing a villain can easily affect your popularity.

In order to establish good values ​​​​for his fans, it is best for him to avoid playing villains.

"Brother Jiahui, hello, thank you very much for coming to help!"

As soon as Chen Qiming came to the crew, he found Liang Jiahui, who replaced him as Zhou Chaoxian.

"You're welcome. I like this role very much. I should thank Mr. Chen for giving me this role!"

Tony Leung smiled and shook hands with Chen Qiming.

"But, Mr. Chen, will your movie be too descriptive? Aren't you worried that the movie won't be released in Treasure Island?"

Tony Leung asked.

What can I say about the drama "Black Gold"?

It's so real, it's a film that exposes the ugliness among the upper class people on Treasure Island.

Among them, the plot about the unscrupulous tactics of the big bosses in order to run for election, and the plot about those underworld figures who were immediately cleared because they were elected as legislators are very close to the current treasure island.

From Tony Leung Ka Fai's point of view, there is a high probability that this scene will be banned after it is filmed.

"It doesn't matter! It doesn't matter if there is a market in Taiwan. I think with two people, this film can make back its money in other markets such as Hong Kong and Singapore."

Why make "Black Gold"?

It's not that this movie will get a lot of box office.

In my dream, this movie didn't actually get much box office, so it could barely make back its money.

Moreover, this film was banned by Treasure Island for twenty years.

It can be said that apart from winning awards, shooting it is simply not worth the gain.

But Chen Qiming still chose to invest in filming.

As for the reason.

It was completely used by Chen Qiming to disgust some people.

Two years ago, when he was still a fledgling, he encountered gangsters who asked him to help canvass votes in a semi-threatening way in order to run for legislators.

He rarely mentioned this matter, but he always kept it in mind.

In addition, he also hates the politicians who are running for elections who come to his place from time to time.

Now, he is full-fledged and has a good background in all aspects.

So, he simply invested money to make this film to disgust these people.

"Okay! Mr. Chen, you are the boss. Since you want to film, we as actors can only be respectful rather than obey!"

Liang Jiahui just said it.

He himself knew that since Chen Qiming decided to make this film, it was obviously impossible for him to stop making it just because of his words.

The two of them walked to the rest area of ​​the crew while chatting.

"Mr. Chen, I heard that the clause in the movie about the Zhou Dynasty running for legislators first and then being completely whitewashed is true in Baodao?"

On the way, Liang Jiahui asked a question that he didn't know much about.

"Yes, Baodao has such a policy."

Chen Qiming nodded.

Yeah, that’s what fucked up.

After the gangsters pass the election and become legislators, no matter what criminal record they have in the past, they can all be wiped off.

Such a fucking clause is real.

It can also be seen from this that you can imagine how awesome the gangsters in Baodao are.

After watching "Young and Dangerous", many people are convinced that the boss of the Bamboo Union Gang will do whatever it takes to run for legislators, even killing people.

It seems like these plots are far from reality.

But the real situation is that these all exist in Treasure Island.

The position of legislator is simply the best way for Baodao gangsters to clear their name.

Anyone who has a bit of potential and a bit of power will have this as their goal.

They even resorted to various black and white methods for this purpose.

“It’s so true that it’s unimaginable!”

Liang Jiahui opened his mouth, as if he wanted to complain, but considering that Chen Qiming was from Baodao, he could only say this in the end.

"I find it unimaginable too!"

Chen Qiming smiled and disagreed.

The two chatted for a while, and then Chen Qiming went to see Andy Lau again.

He plays a decent role as a police officer in this drama.

In addition to him, the crew also has another acquaintance of Chen Qiming, Zhou Huimin.

She plays the role of a reporter here.

Since Vivian Chow broke up with Ni Zhen, she continued to work in the music scene for two years and then focused on film and television.

Especially after her starring role in "The God of Death" achieved very good results around the world, her frequency of filming became more frequent.

Almost two or three movies are released every year.

Although the quality of the films varies, with a large amount of exposure, she has become a goddess-level figure who frequently appears in movies after Wang Zuxian and others.

And the reason why she starred in this drama was naturally because of Chen Qiming.

Currently in Hong Kong and Taiwan, Chen Qiming's Pacific Cinemas camp is undoubtedly the camp that produces the most films.

Over the past year, Guang Qiming Film and Television has participated in the investment of at least a dozen movies.

Currently, Vivian Chow is filming movies invested by Qiming Films at the box office because of her relationship with Chen Qiming.

After greeting everyone on the set and chatting a few words with director McDonald, Chen Qiming slowly walked out of the set.

"Black Gold" is not a big production, and it does not bring much benefit to the company. At most, it can win prizes.

So Chen Qiming doesn't pay too much attention to it.

The most he can do is come and take a look when he has free time. There is no need to stay on the set all the time.

Moreover, he will be very busy in the next period of time.

97's return is imminent, and he is one of the main performers on that day's performance. He has to start rehearsing.
