On June 21, 1997, there were only ten days left before the return of the Pearl.

Since the signing of the Treaty of Nanjing in 1842, the Qing government ceded Xiangjiang Island. It has been exactly 150 years since then, and Xiangjiang has finally returned to the embrace of the motherland.

Peking City, Xiangjiang Gala Organizing Committee.

The leaves of the trees outside the window rustled cheerfully, the atmosphere in the office on the second floor was depressing, and a storm was about to come.

The middle-aged man with a righteous and majestic appearance, his thick eyebrows furrowed, his fingers tightly holding the cigarette, took a puff of the cigarette, put down the document with white paper and red letters, and said in a deep voice: "The song "Wishful" by the singer Xu Chen is indeed It’s a good song that suits the occasion, but there are still ten days before the art show. Time is so tight. If this song is to be played, will it delay the important event?”

"Comrade Li, I don't agree with your view." The middle-aged man on the left said seriously: "For a cultural performance, good songs are the most important. If we just seek stability, we will lose the meaning of the party. The return of the Pearl is not what we want. I came here steadily, and there are still warships parked on the sea."

"The return of the Pearl was achieved by us fighting with our swords and guns and fighting to the death. The blood of the martyrs has not yet dried, and it is flowing hot on the earth."

The middle-aged man's voice was filled with perseverance: "They sacrificed their lives for us to have a better tomorrow. Until the end of their lives, they never had the chance to see the prosperous age in their dreams. Now that the prosperous age is as the martyrs wished, we can't They only remember themselves and chill their hearts.”

"Listen to the song Ruyu..."

He almost didn't sing, but roared with grief and anger: "Looking up at the sky lit by sparks, I sang you into a song. You are where I came from, and where my heart is..."

“What’s the point of a cultural performance if we don’t have such good songs and such good lyrics?”

"boom!"

The tea cup knocked on the table with a dull sound. The little secretary behind him trembled with fright and stared at the toes of his shoes.

The dignified middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "Old Ye, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you still want me to tell you the meaning of the cultural performance? We are sitting here just to get this thing done. No one can become history. sinner!"

He lit the cigarette, frowned, and tapped the document with his fingers: "This song is indeed good, but Wenyi Huiyuan faces the whole world, the whole world. Can you guarantee that this singer named Xu Chen will not make any mistakes? As far as I know, he Just a new singer, just eighteen years old this year!”

"He is just eighteen years old, and he can sing such a good song. Isn't that enough to show that he is capable?" the leader surnamed Ye asked coldly.

"Okay, Xiaoye, you are still grumpy. Xiaoli's worry is not unreasonable. Xiaoye, your suggestion is also very pertinent." The old man with white hair on the right held his reading glasses and looked at the young man on the document carefully. The face full of vicissitudes of history grinned: "This boy is indeed young, only 18, but 18 is not young anymore. He is as tall as a gun and can go to the battlefield..."

"Let's give him a chance, send a notice, and ask him to come over and sing for us. If he sings really well, he can sing. If he doesn't sing well, we can't embarrass him in front of the Chinese people." The old man said with a laugh: " Xiaoye, do you have any objections?"

The serious face of the middle-aged man named Ye softened slightly: "Mr. Hu, we listen to you."

"Where's Xiao Li?"

The middle-aged man in the seat nodded and said with a smile: "Mr. Hu's opinion is very pertinent. It's a mule or a horse. Let's twist it out. I remind you to investigate his reputation. If there is no problem in the review, send him a notification letter." , invite him over.”

"This opinion is pertinent. After all, it is an important matter between the two countries. No matter how good the comrades are, we cannot have negative public opinion."

"Then that's it for today, let's break up the meeting!"

………………

When Zhou Xun went to "Suzhou River", the gears of fate turned, and the "God-given representative" in the Chinese film industry officially emerged.

I heard that Zhou Xun is an experiential person, otherwise he wouldn’t be filming a movie about having a boyfriend...

If Xu Chen becomes friends with Zhou Xun, Zhou Xun’s career as an actress will not be cut off!

Xu Chen didn't think much about it, mainly because he was also very busy.

It's not that I'm busy with the second album. "Legend" has just been on sale for 15 days, which is the time to ride the wave and kill everyone.

Xu Chen predicts that "Legend" will be exhausted at least by the end of September, and the market will become a world of piracy. Piracy will be released for a month, and the second album will be put on the agenda. Calculating the time, it will be the end of October.

Xu Chen’s current job is mainly “commercial acting.”

This money is like picking it up for free. As the return of the Pearl is imminent, the Chinese people are enthusiastic and have spontaneous celebrations. Classic patriotic songs are sung in the streets and alleys, singing about the prosperity of the motherland.

Many smart businesses hold celebration activities to boost sales. The main forms of activities are...

Just singing!

At this time, what song can be better suited to the occasion than Mr. Xu's "Serving the Country with Loyalty"?

"Chinese people" are quite popular. Liu Defa can't chew off 100,000 yuan, but Mr. Xu only needs 3,000 yuan. There are many ways to live a good life, and he will sing five songs and get one for free!

so.

Xu Chen, the king of cost-effectiveness, is constantly receiving invitations for commercial performances, flying like snowflakes into the "modern sky". The price ranges from 3,000 per song at the beginning, to 5,000 per song, and to 20,000 per song at the end. There is no bargaining.

Na Young. Sun Nan and others, at this special moment, can only tremble and tremble, unable to grab it, not at all!

…………

"I can't grasp love..."

"Always watching him slip away..."

"There are happy people everywhere in the world, why can't you just treat me..."

"..."

"Xu Chen, one more!"

"Xu Chen, sing "Serve the Country with Loyalty"

After the song ended, Xu Chen was sweating profusely. The bar was full of people and many female fans were screaming. It was no worse than a big nightclub in 2023.

Many people always think that 1997 was very conservative, which is nonsense. At that time, men dared to wear stockings. How dare they wear stockings in 2023? Those covering their faces don’t count...

1997 can be said to be the most open time in China. The motherland is prosperous and strong, the economy is booming, and we all have a bright future~

Xu Chen bowed and thanked: "Thank you, thank you all for coming. My new album "Legend" is on sale. Friends who like listening to music must not miss it..."

Go backstage.

Xu Chen unbuttoned his collar, and there were big beads of sweat on his collarbone...

Singing is not an easy job, especially for "Serving the Country with Loyalty", Xu Chen used all his "dantian energy". Otherwise, if he sings more than a dozen songs a day, his voice will be scrapped sooner or later.

Agent Doudou unscrewed the thermos cup and took office, thinking about it: "Boss, you are awesome today! Are you tired? I'll give you a shoulder squeeze and a pat on the back..."

"Licking a dog will lead to a bad death."

But if he licks himself, Xu Chen can only say: "It feels so good."

It's a pity that Doudou is not a female star. Mr. Xu reckons that when he has time, he still needs a black stockings lady secretary~

"Oh Brother Chen, you are exhausted~ Do you want my sister to make some arrangements for you~" Manager Zheng, with her beautiful legs in black stockings and her waist twisted like a lotus branch, smiled and said to the little beauty beside her: "Xiao Li, aren't you thinking so much? Brother Chen, this is it. I told you that Brother Chen is not an ordinary person. I think back when Brother Chen’s "Jade Belt Bridge" was in the Shichahai wine circle, no one knew about it. If Brother Chen hadn’t cared about old friendships, where would it have been? Let me invite Brother Chen to come..."

Tsk tsk...

Xu Chen squinted at Manager Zheng, "Human, if you become developed, there will be good people in the world. They all say that having more friends will make life easier, bullshit..."

The road is easy, the friends are many!

In the past, you wouldn’t even give me a hundred yuan, but now you happily give me thirty thousand yuan, and you’ll still be grateful after giving it. No wonder everyone wants to be famous!

"Manager Zheng, you're welcome." Xu Chen didn't show any emotion. He chuckled and said, "It's getting late. I have something to do. Next time I'm free, let's get together, Manager Zheng. If Manager Zheng hadn't taken me in, I would have I really can’t get there today.”

"Okay, Brother Chen!" Manager Zheng was very excited and escorted Xu Chen to the door. He looked eagerly and said happily: "I have long said that Brother Chen is going to be popular. If he is not popular, who will be popular? Our bar has also walked out of the King. …”

At this time, the female assistant came over and said: "Sister Zheng, that Yang Kun said that eighty is too little, so he insisted on one hundred..."

"One hundred, he has the nerve to ask for one hundred? He thinks he is Xu Chen!" Manager Zheng's eyebrows flew into the sky and he hummed: "Only eighty, whether you like singing or not, these resident singers are so comfortable."

The female assistant walked to the door. Manager Zheng frowned and shouted: "Wait a minute, Yang Kun and Brother Chen know each other. Let's do this. For Brother Chen's sake, just give him 100 and give him a meal after everything is done." , this old boy is very lucky to be friends with Brother Chen."

…………

Out of the bar.

Doudou looked at the schedule, with freckles on the tip of her nose: "Boss, we have no activities in the afternoon, but we have to meet Zhang Yang. I have already made a reservation. The time is 7:30 pm."

Zhang Yang is the director of "Love Malatang". The creative team of this movie has already been selected, but Gao Yuanyuan is the only one missing in the whole drama.

Thinking that Zhang Yang was not a good person, Xu Chen decided to call Gao Yuanyuan, pinch Xiao Zhang hard, and walked to the willow tree by the lake.

On a June day, the willow branches were lush and green, and the trees were full of tender green. The phone rang several times, and a hoarse male voice said: "Hello, who are you looking for?"

Damn it.

Xu Chen pulled off the willow leaves, damn, Gao Yuanyuan has a boyfriend!
