China Entertainment: I just want to give my child a home

Chapter 382 The couple's lecture at Beijing Film Academy (Please subscribe!)
“Now, please invite Director Chen Dong to come on stage and personally unveil the mysterious lot he brought.”

When Chen Dong was called, the Bazaar Charity Gala was almost coming to an end.

Because Chen Dong's item was the most mysterious among all the items being auctioned, the guests on the scene were also the most curious and expectant.

At this time, Chen Dong had already arrived at the auction seat. He took the microphone handed over by the host, cleared his throat, and then said: "I know everyone has been curious about the items I brought all night, so I will not keep you in suspense here."

After saying this, Chen Dong tore off the seal on a plaque that he had personally made at the printing shop this morning in front of everyone, immediately revealing the words engraved inside.

There was no need for Chen Dong to read out, as many guests in the audience opened their eyes wide and read out the content for him.

"A scheduled lead actor in the next play (movie/TV series/variety show) produced by Dongcheng Pictures!"

Boom~
Suddenly, the audience was in an uproar, because they were all shocked by the unexpected item brought by Chen Dong.

Discussions arose one after another.

"Haha, Director Chen is still very creative."

"This is real, I like it."

"I have a feeling that Director Chen's lot will be the top lot tonight."

"Me too, I should be the last one to appear."

“It really didn’t disappoint.”

"Yifei, you two are the ones who know how to have fun."

"..."

After everyone's excitement died down, Chen Dong quoted a reserve price of 100 million and announced the start of the auction.

As soon as he finished speaking, several voices spoke at the same time.

"100."

"150."

"300."

"330."

"600."

As the prices got higher and higher, some stars with relatively limited financial resources withdrew from the competition.

In less than a minute, the bidding price exceeded 1000 million.

Basically, when this number was called out, even the voices of first-line stars gradually faded away.

However, although the threshold of 10 million eliminated some celebrities from the auction, new voices joined in.

For example, Huayi, Chengtian, Tianyu, Yinghuang, Tangren, Starlight, and Shiba Culture...

After these film and television companies spoke out, the price increase increased by millions each time.

When Ying Huang raised the price to 2000 million, not only did big-name stars like Jackie Chan and Liu Dehua turn their backs on the film, but even companies that were not considered film and television giants like Tangren and Shiba Culture began to feel overwhelmed.

In fact, at this point, the bidding price has far exceeded the value of a reserved leading role, but there are still people who continue to raise the price.

Because from a company perspective, a reserved starring role is only a superficial benefit. Behind this lies the benefit of cooperating with Dongcheng Pictures.

"3000."

The 30 million yuan announced by the wealthy Huayi once again scared away some competitors.

At this point, there are actually not many people left who can still bid.

Just when everyone thought that Huayi would eventually take this spot.

A girl on the field raised the sign again, and then she announced a statistic in a resounding voice that attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.

"5000."

Quiet, so quiet that you can hear a pin drop.

The next second, there was an uproar, an uproar that attracted the whole audience's attention.

Even though the girl was sitting in the audience and her seat was not in the first row, she was the prettiest girl in the audience at that moment.

In fact, there are not many female celebrities who are so wealthy in the entertainment industry.

She has had endless resources since her debut, but she has never become popular.

The high price of 5000 million has already destined that no one will pay more than her.

So when the atmosphere on the scene calmed down, Chen Dong also came back to his senses. He raised the auction hammer, counted to three, and then knocked on the sign in front of him.

When~
The voice echoed in the conference hall, having the final word.

"Now please invite Miss Jingtian to come on stage..."

This auction is destined to push this year's Bazaar Star Charity Gala to the top of the hot searches, and may even become an unforgettable classic. Upon seeing this, Su Mang personally came on stage to guest host.

Jingtian walked onto the stage holding up her skirt, her smile looking a little reserved in front of the camera, not sure if it was because she was standing in front of Chen Dong or because she was nervous.

Su Mang began to use her host skills and asked Jing Tian who came on stage:

"Jingtian, let me interview you. Why did you spend 5000 million to buy Director Chen's...special item?"

"Because I have had a dream for a long time." Jing Tian said this while stealing a glance at Chen Dong before continuing, "My dream is that one day I can play the leading role in Director Chen's movie."

Su Mang glanced at the plaque, then poured cold water on Jing Tian's words.

"But Director Chen's plaque only says that it is a movie produced by Dongcheng Films. It doesn't say that it must be Director Chen's movie."

When Su Mang said this, Jing Tian was stunned.

Just when the atmosphere was about to become awkward, Chen Dong spoke up to help: "It's okay, even if Jingtian only wants to act in my play, it's fine, but you may have to wait until a role suitable for you appears."

Jing Tian was relieved by Chen Dong's words and quickly said, "It's okay. I can wait."

Then, Su Mang turned his attention to Chen Dong: "Then Director Chen, what do you want to say to Jing Tian, ​​who spent 5000 million to film your next movie and booked the female lead?"

There was ambiguity in Su Mang's words. Chen Dong didn't know whether she was doing it on purpose or really didn't understand. However, due to the current environment, he didn't take it too seriously and continued to answer:
"First of all, thank you Jingtian for your contribution to charity... Secondly, I wish you good luck and may you walk on the flowery path every year. I also wish us a pleasant cooperation in the future!"

"Thank you, thank you, Director Chen."

There were still items waiting to be auctioned, and Su Mang didn't want to keep stalling, so after completing the handover ceremony and taking photos, both parties left the stage.

Basically, large-scale evening events like this are now broadcast live.

Naturally, this year's Bazaar Star Charity Night is no exception.

After Chen Dong's previous round of bidding, the guests on site were still not satisfied, not to mention the online audience.

The barrage of comments filling the screen right now is the most direct proof.

"Wonderful. This is the most exciting auction I have ever seen."

"I remember that in the past, this kind of 'auction' of roles was done privately, and people were even afraid of being exposed by the media. Now Director Chen is directly auctioning it openly at the Bazaar Charity Gala. Is that okay?"

"Hahaha, Director Chen is really daring to be the first in the world, but it's quite interesting."

"It's mainly because this is charity, otherwise it would have been blasted to death by the saliva on the Internet."

"indeed."

"Although, isn't it too bad to spend 5000 million to get a scheduled starring role?" "Don't use your superficial understanding to question the world of the rich. Maybe 5000 million is just a month's salary for us."

"That's right. Jing Tian has had constant resources since his debut. I heard that his family background is very affluent. In her eyes, perhaps she cares more about good resources than 5000 million."

"By the way, what is Jingtian's background?"

"I don't know, I'm just curious, please answer below."

"I don't know downstairs either..."

When this year's Bazaar Star Charity Gala ended, Chen Dong's auction had already made it into the top ten of the hot search list.

And looking at its rising popularity, I guess we won’t have to wait until tomorrow morning, it will be ranked first in the early morning.

As for whether there is a driving force behind this, of course there is. After all, Bazaar has been held for 11 times and has long since developed from a grassroots team into a well-known enterprise with its own public relations department.

The number one on the current hot search list is the news that "Beijing Meets Seattle" defeated "Shendu Dragon King" with a single-day box office of 5132 million and won the box office champion of the day with 4878 million.

……

"That girl is still obsessed with you."

"You're thinking too much."

"A woman's intuition is never wrong. Anyway, if you really work with her in the future, don't let any scandals spread."

"Don't worry, in this life, apart from you, I won't even look at other women even if they throw themselves at me."

Liu Yifei was a little jealous after she came back, but after hearing Chen Dong's "sweet words", her mood inexplicably improved.

The next day, almost half of the top ten news on the hot search list were dominated by last night's Bazaar Star Charity Gala.

The first one was obviously Chen Dong’s auction.

The second is that this year's Bazaar Gala received a total of 1.1 million yuan in donations last night, a record high.

Jing Tian also made it to a hot search list separately. The agency behind her created a persona for her that of a beautiful and wealthy woman.

This time it really became famous.

I just don’t know if she can handle this wave of traffic.

If she takes it, considering that she is also the heroine in the upcoming "New Police Story 2013" starring Jackie Chan, it is unlikely that she will directly enter the first-tier market, but she should have no problem reaching the quasi-first-tier market.

The seven-day National Day holiday is over.

The students returned to the familiar classroom.

Xue Xiaolu is the head teacher of the 2010 directing class and has two classes today... Well, these are actually not important to Chen Dong and his wife who are going to teach her today.

Because the school knew that the couple would come to Beijing Film Academy to teach students today, and had re-planned a new course schedule for them, or to put it more intuitively, the word "lecture" would be more appropriate, rather than directly following Xue Xiaolu's schedule.

The auditorium of Beijing Film Academy, when the school leaders led Chen Dong and his wife into it, the audience was packed with people. "Packed" was not enough to describe the scene, because even the middle and sides of the aisles were full of people.

As for those who came to attend the class, in addition to students, there were even quite a few teachers, and of course, there were also reporters with cameras.

Because this was Chen Dong's second lecture at the Beijing Film Academy, he had actually foreseen such a scene before he came, so he was very calm.

But Liu Yifei beside him was experiencing this for the first time. The scene before her was completely beyond her imagination before she came here, so she was a little panicked at this moment.

Fortunately, she didn't have classes in the morning, so she had some time to adapt in the morning, otherwise she was really worried that she would give up.

After greeting each other, Liu Yifei and the school leaders sat in the first row of seats reserved for them, while Chen Dong continued to stay on the three-foot podium and began his eloquent lecture.

Thanks to Chen Dong's rich experience and knowledge, his lecture was full of useful information. Perhaps most of the people who came to the lecture before were attracted by the couple's fame, but after listening to the lecture, almost everyone gained something more or less.

At noon, when Chen Dong and his wife and school leaders were having lunch in the cafeteria, the reporters were not idle at all. They worked overtime to post Chen Dong's lecture on the Internet.

This immediately made the students from the Central Academy of Drama next door and other art schools cry with envy.

"Wow, why don't Director Chen and Yifei come to our Central Academy of Drama to give lectures?! This is unfair, I want to protest."

"Yes, yes, yes, and we're on stage."

"I'm so jealous of those bastards from Beijing Film Academy."

"Envy +6666."

"I know a classmate from Beijing Film Academy who said that there will be a lecture by Liu Yifei this afternoon. Is there anyone from the Central Academy of Drama who would like to form a group to attend the lecture?"

"Me, me, me, I want to sign up."

"Ahem, I'm on my way."

"Fuck, wait for me upstairs, you bastard."

"I'm a student at the Shanghai Theatre Academy. I also want to go to the scene, but what should I do if it's too late? I'm waiting online. It's very urgent."

"Same scene as before. I fainted in the toilet from crying."

"..."

Liu Yifei didn't pay any attention to the online discussions this afternoon.

She had been preparing for the afternoon lecture and was very excited, so naturally she didn't take a lunch break.

"Actually, you don't have to be so excited. Once you actually stand on the podium, you will find that this matter is not as scary as you expected."

"I know. I felt the same way when I first performed on the Spring Festival Gala and held my first concert, but I couldn't control it."

Liu Yifei continued, "Hubby, can you wait until I start speaking before catching the plane? I'll feel safer when I see you."

"No problem, I can even listen to your lecture for half an hour."

As expected, when Liu Yifei actually started her lecture, she was not as nervous and excited as she was before going on stage.

Chen Dong, who was sitting in the audience, watched his wife becoming more and more relaxed and confident on the podium, and a gratified smile appeared on his face, but time passed quickly and he had to catch a plane, otherwise he would miss it.

At the same time, the guests for the first episode of the second season of "Extreme Challenge" have gathered in Shanghai, and the recording will officially begin tomorrow.

Because the director team has done a good job of keeping it confidential, up to now, no one on the Internet knows who will replace Chen Dong and become the sixth permanent guest of this season's Got Talent.

When Chen Dong arrived in Bangkok, Thailand, his wife's lecture had already ended and everyone had returned home.

"Husband, have you arrived at the crew?"

"Not yet. I just got off the plane and am on my way there."

"Oh, guess what I'm doing?"

"Just had dinner, lying on the sofa..."

"wrong."

"Help my son with his homework."

"Guess again."

"I see. You were surfing the Internet, reading netizens' comments about your class today, right?"

"Bingo, you got it right, but there's no prize. It took you three tries to guess it right."

"..."
