1990: Starting from Baojia Street

Since Wang Lihong was not in control, Zhou Yan said a few more words, mainly talking about several songs in "Love Rival Beethoven", and praised the production level of these songs in detail.

Because there are more details, the flattery now sounds more sincere than before.

When Zhou Yan had almost finished speaking, someone in the audience shouted, "Zhou Yan, play a song for us."

At first there was only one person shouting, then many people began to follow suit, more and more people shouted, and the voices became louder and louder.

Zhou Yan shook his head and said, "I won't steal the show today. Let's just enjoy Wang Lihong's music."

He was reluctant to play. On the one hand, as he said himself, he didn't want to steal the show. On the other hand, there were no other instruments he could play except keyboard and guitar, and his guitar skills were not good, so there was no need for him to make a fool of himself.

After finishing speaking, Zhou Yan turned off the microphone again, exchanged a few words with Wang Lihong, then waved goodbye and walked off the stage.

When he reached the edge of the stage, he chatted with Li Shouquan for a few more words.

After all, it was the first time the two met and there was not much to talk about. They exchanged a few simple greetings, mainly Li Shouquan expressing his gratitude to Zhou Yan.

Li Shouquan knew that Zhou Yan’s appearance today had a great impact on Wang Lihong.

Moreover, he just learned from some of the audience that the reason why so many people came to the scene today was also related to Zhou Yan.

It was because Zhou Yan recommended tonight's performance to his music fans in the afternoon that they formed a group to come here.

After chatting for a few words, Zhou Yan said goodbye to Li Shouquan.

As soon as he stepped off the stage, the young men who had protected him just now appeared again, probably because they were worried that he would be surrounded again.

There were indeed a lot of people coming over at this moment, but the situation was much better than before because there were not many people on the side of the stage.

Zhou Yan looked at the situation at the scene and then thanked the young men.

Zhao Weilun was also very happy to hear Zhou Yan thanking him and his group. He hesitated for a while before finally mustering up the courage to say to Zhou Yan, "Teacher Zhou Yan, we are actually members of your Taipei City Supporters Association. I am the vice president, Zhao Weilun."

Hearing what Zhao Weilun said, Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that there was also a fan club for him in Taipei.

"Have you contacted my agent?"

"No." Zhao Weilun shook his head.

Zhou Yan thought for a moment and said, "Give me a contact number, and I'll have someone from our company contact you later. There are also some fan clubs in other places that are connected to our company. When there are some activities, the company will provide some benefits to the fan clubs, such as signed albums or concert tickets, as a way of thanking you for your support."

Hearing what Zhou Yan said, the young men looked very excited. Isn’t this exactly what they wanted?
After the fan club was established, Zhao Weilun and his team planned to contact Zhou Yan's team, but they have not been able to do so yet.

Originally, they wanted to tell Zhou Yan directly about their fan club. When they went to the entrance of the concert hall at noon, they even wanted to bring a fan club flag with them.

However, their fan club had just been established not long ago, and many things were not perfected. There was only one handwritten flag, which was very simple. They were embarrassed to bring it with them, for fear of embarrassing themselves in front of Zhou Yan.

Zhao Weilun quickly found a pen and paper and wrote down his contact information. Then, feeling uneasy, he also wrote down the names and contact information of several other important people in the fan club.

After he finished writing, Zhou Yan took the paper with a smile and said, "Go back and wait for the news. You guys have worked hard today, so stay and watch the performance. I'm leaving first."

Zhou Yan then left, and the fans were very restrained and stayed where they were without following him.

However, Zhou Yan still saw someone following him secretly. It was most likely a paparazzi. Wang Lihong was holding an outdoor concert today, so there would definitely be reporters on the scene.

Zhou Yan did not go to look for Joey Wong, but went straight back to the hotel where the band was staying, packed some things, and waited for a long time before heading to Joey Wong's residence.

During this period, he also called Joey Wong and asked her to go back to her residence first.

……

At Zhou Yan's first concert in Taiwan, there were certainly not as many stars in attendance as in Hong Kong, but there were still quite a few. In addition to Joey Wong, Kenny Ho, and Chen Derong, there were also Yi Nengjing and Yang Lin.

There is also the couple Lee Jong-sheng and Sandy Lam. This is their second time appearing at Zhou Yan's concert. They were also there when Zhou Yan first came to hold a concert.

After two or three years, Li Zongsheng's status in the music industry is higher than before, and Lin Yilian's career development is also better than before, but of course Zhou Yan is the one who has developed the best.

They all went backstage to find Zhou Yan, and Yi Nengjing and Yang Lin were the first to arrive.

In fact, Zhou Yan was not familiar with the two of them, it was just that they had had dinner together once before because of Hou Xiaoxian.

That was Zhou Yan's first time in Taiwan, and Hou Xiaoxian set up that group to introduce a few girls to Zhou Yan, because he had said more than once before that he would introduce Zhou Yan to beautiful girls from Taiwan.

It’s just that Zhou Yan didn’t have much attraction to Yi Nengjing and the others, so they just had a simple meal together and didn’t contact each other again afterwards.

After meeting again, Yi Nengjing and Yang Lin acted very familiar with each other.

Yi Nengjing apologized for Hou Xiaoxian first, "Director Hou really wanted to come to your concert, but he couldn't make it back, so he asked Xiaolin and I to represent him."

The only bond between them and Zhou Yan is Hou Xiaoxian, so Yi Nengjing brought up Hou Xiaoxian first to bring the two sides closer.

In fact, seeing Zhou Yan again, Yi Nengjing and Yang Lin were very emotional. When they first met, Zhou Yan was just a good-looking and talented boy in their eyes. They even teased Zhou Yan during the meal and treated him completely as a younger brother.

Now times have changed, and Zhou Yan has become a hot figure in the film, television and music circles.

If they could still eat at the same table, Yi Nengjing and Yang Lin probably wouldn't dare to tease Zhou Yan like they did in the past.

The way of addressing has also changed, now everyone calls him Director Zhou.

They had some idea of ​​what Hou Xiaoxian meant by organizing that dinner party, but they didn't take it seriously at the time because they had never thought of dating a mainlander.

And Yi Nengjing has always had a boyfriend.

Zhou Yan smiled and said, "I am very happy that you two can come."

Yi Nengjing and Yang Lin are both very talkative girls, but they also knew that Zhou Yan was quite busy, so they left after chatting for a while.

Next came Lee Jong-sheng and Sandy Lam, who simply said hello and went to the front.

He Jiajin and Chen Derong arrived separately and chatted with Zhou Yanduo for a while.

Just when the concert was about to begin, Joey Wong came backstage with a tall man.

When she got to Zhou Yan, Wang Zuxian introduced him to him seriously, "Third brother, this is my second brother Wang Zuan."

Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment. Her second brother was actually called Wang Zuan. What an interesting name.

Wang Zuxian's second brother doesn't look very much like her, but if you look closely, you can see similarities between the two, especially their eyebrows. Both siblings have thick eyebrows. Another thing is their height. Wang Zuan is very tall, half a head taller than Zhou Yan, and is estimated to be over 1.9 meters tall.

With such a height, he would stand out from the crowd in any city in mainland China, let alone in Taiwan.

In Taiwan, there are very few people who are as tall as Zhou Yan, let alone someone like Wang Zuan.

In addition to being tall, Joey Wong is also very strong and must be an athlete.

After introducing her brother, Joey Wong smiled and introduced Zhou Yan, "Brother, this is the third brother himself."

"Hello, Third Brother." Wang Zuan took the initiative to shake hands with Zhou Yan. "I like your music very much. I know you are having a concert in Taiwan, so I specially asked Xiaoxian to bring me here. I hope I won't disturb you."

Zhou Yan was startled by the call of "Third Brother". He secretly rolled his eyes at Wang Zuxian and then said to Wang Zuan, "Xiaoxian and the others call me Third Brother just for fun. You can just call me Zhou Yan, or Xiaoyan. I should call you Brother Zuan."

Wang Zuan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Zhou Yan to be so polite.

"Then I'll call you Director Zhou." Wang Zuan still didn't feel comfortable calling Zhou Yan by his name, let alone calling him Xiao Yan.

After hearing what Wang Zuan said, Zhou Yan did not force it. He smiled and nodded, "That's fine. The performance will start soon. I may not have much time to accompany you. Have you found your seats?"

"Yes, we have found it. My parents and eldest brother are already seated."

Zhou Yan was stunned again, "Your father and mother are here too?"

"Yeah, that's right." Wang Zuan nodded.

"Then how about I go out and say hello to them now?"

After hearing what Zhou Yan said, Wang Zuan was even more surprised. This Director Zhou was being a bit too polite.

He waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, the performance will start soon, we can't waste your time. We won't stay any longer, Director Zhou, just focus on preparing for the performance."

As he said that, he pulled his sister's arm and said, "Let's go, Xiaoxian, don't delay Director Zhou from preparing for the performance."

Wang Zuxian nodded and waved to Zhou Yan, "See you later, Third Brother."

"Well, see you later."

……

After the brother and sister left the backstage, Wang Zuan couldn't help but sigh, "Although Director Zhou is young, he has a very calm temperament. But it's no wonder. After all, he has already filmed three movies. If he is not calm, I'm afraid he won't be able to control those people on the set."

Wang Zuxian said with a smile, "Is that so we all call him Third Brother."

Seeing his sister's bright smile, Wang Zuan joked, "Little sister, it's not bad for you to find Zhou Yan as your boyfriend. I think he's quite reliable, and he's from Jinling. Grandpa and the others will definitely agree."

For many Taiwanese people, the city of Jinling holds a very high status in their minds. Some people joke that Jinling is the capital of three provinces. In addition to Jiangsu Province, it is also the capital of Anhui Province and Taiwan Island.

Moreover, the Wang family's situation is very special. Their ancestral home is in Anhui Province, and Wang Zuxian's mother's ancestral home is in Jinling, so naturally they are more familiar with Jinling.

Hearing her brother say this, Wang Zuxian felt happy, but she didn't want to show it, so she pouted and said, "Third brother is a very boring person. He usually only knows how to work and has no interest in life. Brother, you don't know, I have never seen him really rest. Every day is either work or work."

Wang Zuan sighed and said earnestly, "Little sister, you are still young and don't understand at all. This kind of man is really reliable. When you are in love, of course, there is nothing wrong with romance, but in real life, it's all about firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. Even if you are a big star, you can't escape these. He is not short, and he looks good standing next to you. And I think he should exercise regularly, so he must be in good health."

Wang Zuan was just saying this casually, but as he spoke, he became serious and asked about Zhou Yan's family situation. "Director Zhou studied music, so his family should be well off."

In Wang Zuan's opinion, learning music is very expensive, and it is difficult to learn it if you don't have a foundation at home.

Wang Zuxian nodded, "Third brother's family is a big family with many people. His grandfather used to be a leader in the army, and his eldest uncle and third uncle are both in the system. But their second branch is now doing business, and it seems to be doing well."

Seeing that Wang Zuxian knew Zhou Yan's family situation very well, Wang Zuan looked surprised and asked, "How do you know so much about his family situation?"

Wang Zuxian panicked and realized that she had gotten carried away and said too much, but she soon found an excuse for herself, "When we were filming Green Snake, San Ge's brothers and sisters all went to Hong Kong. I often played with them, so I heard a lot about their family. Otherwise, where do you think I knew it from? And I called him San Ge, just like his brothers and sisters did."

This statement was quite reasonable, and Wang Zuan did not think much about it. However, when he heard that Zhou Yan's family background was so good, he became a little hesitant. "His family background is too good. If I marry him, it may not be a good thing."

In fact, their Wang family is a scholarly family. They were very good in the past, but their later development was average. By the time of their father's generation, they had basically nothing to do with a scholarly family anymore, and instead became a sports family.

If Joey Wong hadn't become an actress, she would probably still be playing basketball now, so there would be four people working in the sports industry in her family.

Although Joey Wong only said that Zhou Yan’s grandfather used to be a military leader and did not specify his rank, but considering his age, the leaders at that time are most likely very powerful now, especially those in the second or third generation who are officials.

The key is some complicated historical issues. Zhou Yan’s grandfather and their grandfather were once on opposite sides. Their grandfather definitely doesn’t care, but who knows if others will mind?
Wang Zuxian smiled and said, "It's not that exaggerated."

"Little sister, you are still too young and don't understand this kind of family. For a family like theirs, Zhou Yan might even arrange a marriage. I have no right to freedom of marriage at all."

"too exaggerated."

Seeing that Joey Wong didn't believe what he said, Joey Wong didn't say anything else. Anyway, he didn't think there was any possibility between Zhou Yan and Xiao Mei.

And just now my younger sister also said that she doesn’t like workaholics like Zhou Yan who have no interest in life.

……

Joey Wong's seat was in the first row, while her family members were sitting in the second row. Because Joey Wong requested her ticket too late, only a few seats could be arranged in a row in the second row.

Returning to her seat, Mother Wang asked, "Zuan, how does Zhou Yan feel?"

"A very friendly person." Wang Zuan said with a smile.

“Am I as good-looking in person as I am on TV?”

“I think it looks better than on TV.”

"It's better than on TV." Mother Wang exclaimed.

Wang Zuan rolled his eyes. He knew his mother liked to look at those handsome young men, and Zhou Yan's appearance did meet the aesthetic standards of most people.

"Does he have a girlfriend?"

"How would I know that? I can't ask someone if he has a girlfriend the first time I meet him, right? Otherwise, go ask him yourself."

He just said it casually, but he didn't expect that Mother Wang would take it seriously. "Can we go see him? Would it be inconvenient?" (End of this chapter)
