Chapter 1853 Classmates Get Together
While Yin Jun and Tao Huimin were talking in the room, Wen Bixia was entertaining guests at the Qilin Western Restaurant where they had just eaten.
Yin Jun and the others went early today. Although they chatted for a while, because Tao Huimin wanted to eat Brother Jun, they ended the party after taking the opportunity to get drunk.
Although the students were a little reluctant to leave, considering Tao Huimin's status, none of them dared to say anything nonsense.
It was even more impossible for them to know that Yin Jun couldn't drink. They just thought that Yin Jun must be feeling a little uncomfortable or something.
Then after all the clouds and rain came down, it was only around 9 o'clock.
In Huajing in 1985, ordinary people usually watched TV at home at seven or eight o'clock in the evening.
But for those who like to mess around, or have the ability to do business entertainment, and to put it bluntly, there are also those rich people, the nightlife starts at eight or nine o'clock.
Wen Bixia is also very busy today.
She stayed at Wei's house for a few hours in the afternoon. Seeing that there were too many people, she slipped out.
In the evening, she first invited some of her teachers from the Chinese Opera to dinner, which was also a way to connect with each other.
After all, she also learned a lot of real skills during that year.
Even though the relationship between Yin Jun and Wei Xiaofan was involved, and there were large donations, she could certainly tell whether the teachers were attentive or serious.
Respecting teachers is something Yin Jun often taught her.
Even if Wen Bixia hasn't thought that she will return to the mainland to film or do anything, she has to do these things. Not only is Yin Jun teaching her about the scene, Wei Xiaofan also often teaches her when making phone calls.
After renting a house together for several years, Wei Xiaofan regarded her as his own daughter, and this relationship has not changed even now.
Now that he has a daughter, Wei Xiaofan doesn't know how happy he is, probably because he has long expected to have a daughter like Ayu.
What Wen Bixia actually wants to do is go to Hollywood to film, film two more movies, get some honors, and become globally famous. Then she can return to Hong Kong and concentrate on giving birth to two children for Brother Jun. From now on, she will accompany Brother Jun and his wife The children, take care of their mother and siblings, and live a leisurely life.
After sending the teachers home, she hurriedly rushed to the second party, which was also scheduled long ago, and was a gathering between Chinese Opera students.
This gathering is not simple. Jiang Bawang, who returned to the mainland for the Spring Festival, is also here.
Precisely because Wen Bixia and Jiang Wen were both present, so many of their classmates occupied a space.
The spacious rectangular wooden table is filled with all kinds of exquisite food and drinks. There are more than a dozen of us classmates. Since we graduated and have been separated for a while, we naturally have a lot to say.
By the time they were halfway through eating and drinking, everyone had finished reminiscing about old times and new topics, and the scene gradually began to quiet down.
Lu Liping is a person who is very good at enlivening the atmosphere.
Seeing that everyone had turned around from reminiscing about old times, she also knew what to talk about now, "Axia, we haven't congratulated you yet! Now your Happy Girls group has become popular all over Asia. Even we in the mainland have many people who have become your fans!"
"Hey, can these tapes be sold in the mainland?" Wen Bixia asked in surprise.
"Haha, others may not know, but your Miss Wen's will definitely work." A male classmate next to him said with a smile, "It started to be sold on the market in the second half of last year, but it only lasted for more than two months. , there are pirated versions. Although the sound quality of the pirated version is very poor, they sell it cheaply, so I bought at least 10 to 20 million copies, which is much better than the original version!"
"So many?" Wen Bixia was still a little dazed.
"After all, the genuine version has much better sound quality, and is not particularly expensive. It also has exquisite lyrics on drawing paper, and there are many sales channels. Naturally, there are many young people who can support it." The man also continued, " I asked some questions that day and found out that your two albums combined have sold at least 12 million tapes!"
"Wow, there are so many!" Wen Bixia said in surprise again.
"In Xiangjiang, don't you get dividends for every record you make? Are they greedy for you?" Cong Shan on the side opened her eyes wide.
"That's not true... We all get paid once a month, and I haven't read those lists." Wen Bixia said with a smile, "No wonder I said I have made a lot of money in the past two years. It turns out that there is some credit here. .”
"You are really worrying about her for nothing." Lu Liping shrugged, "Have you forgotten who is the boss of the Qilin Group? They dare to fool anyone, and they don't dare to fool their own eldest lady!"
Only then did everyone suddenly wake up.
yes.
No matter how big Kirin Records is, it is still a private company belonging to Kirin Group.
The boss of Kirin Group is Yin Jun. How dare Kirin Records underreport sales volume and swallow the money himself?
"It's a pity that we can't watch the latest episode of Axia's "Happy Ghost" series." A male classmate said regretfully, "When I think about the movies I watched when I was playing in Hong Kong, they are really better than those in the mainland. too much!"
"Well, that's the fact." Another female classmate interjected, "Also, Awen's "Jue Ling Xiong Feng" sold well in the United States and Asia. Everyone praised him as a powerful actor. As a result, But we can’t even see it ourselves!”
"Are you sorry that you can't appreciate those huge muscles?" Her friend next to her chuckled.
"Tch, haven't I seen his body many times?" The female classmate blushed a little, but there was something strange about the way she looked at Jiang Wen.
Jiang Wen is already very famous both within the Chinese Opera School and in the entire domestic entertainment industry.
From the day he entered Chinese Opera, everyone said that he was a genius who appeared only once every few decades.
Starting from "Furong Town", then to "Hua Jingren in New York", and then to "The Peak", Jiang Wen walked step by step in the direction that everyone expected, and also brought countless envious looks.
Of course, there is also the admiration of some female classmates, such as the one in front of me.
It's just that Jiang Wen was tied up by Liu Xiaoqing just after he left the school.
Facing the most famous female star in the country and the winner of the Hong Kong Film Awards, these girls are not that confident and their confidence is a bit low.
Jiang Wen didn't care about that. When he talked about his movie, he was also a little excited, "Originally, I didn't like going abroad because they, the old Americans, looked down on us and thought we were all washing dishes. Last time I had this feeling when I was filming "Hua Jingren in New York".
But Jun Shao insisted that I act in this movie, so I had no choice but to go. But after I went there, I discovered that the American film-making techniques, systems, and coordination are a hundred times ahead of ours! This is an eye-opener for me, and I must learn more in the future so that I can come back and contribute to the movies of my motherland. "
The people next to him nodded with envy.
In this era, it is normal to envy the United States.
After decades of isolation, when they open their eyes to see the world, especially the most powerful country in the world, they certainly have countless novelties and yearnings.
Their current thoughts are not something that Chinese people in 2020 can feel.
In China in 2020, urban infrastructure construction has been basically completed, and various cities have formed prosperous urban areas one after another.
In terms of the city's prosperity and construction, it has already surpassed most cities in the United States.
In the entire United States, only New York dares to say that Chinese cities are not as good as itself. The rest, including the second city of Los Angeles, are definitely not as good as any second-tier provincial capital city in China.
Don't doubt it, you will know it when you go to the United States.
The prosperity of Los Angeles does not lie in its streets and buildings. It only consists of a few high-rise buildings, which cannot even compare to a street in the Second Ring Road of a provincial capital city in China.
Moreover, in 2020, it is no exaggeration to say that the various conveniences of life in the United States have lagged behind China for more than ten years.
Whether it's logistics, takeout, payment, medical care, etc., they are not as convenient as China in all aspects of life.
At that time, ordinary people who stayed and worked in the United States were fools. ——Most people who go to the United States are actually of average intelligence, and are not good enough to stand out among Americans. For example, there are only a few Nobel Prize winners or Grand Dukes. They are simply rare.
So in this regard, young people in China already have a mentality of contempt for Americans.
Yin Jun thinks this is not good. After all, in terms of comprehensive strength, it is considered good for China to catch up with the United States in fifty years. You cannot just look at this aspect of life and feel that others are inferior to you in everything.
anyway.
Now in the 1980s, and even in the 1990s and 2000s, going to the United States and staying in the United States is the biggest dream of those students.
It was during this era that many actors from China left everything behind and went to the United States after making some achievements.
Of course, most of them are not very happy, but it will take several years or more than ten years before they can slowly realize and regret this.
Now if you try to persuade them not to go, it's like destroying people's wealth or killing their parents.
Therefore, listening to Jiang Wen talk about the advancement of the United States, everyone is very envious, which is understandable.
"Awen has already made such great progress, Axia, you think you have to give us a chance no matter what?" After Jiang Wen finished speaking, Lu Liping took Wen Bixia's arm and begged.
They all had a tacit understanding before they came.
Seeing this, everyone looked at Wen Bixia eagerly.
Wen Bixia also smiled, "You haven't had a chance yet? At Qilin Culture Huajing Branch, haven't you all already played roles? Although there is no protagonist role yet, but if you work hard for two more years, you will definitely have the opportunity. Here we are. At that time, Qilin Culture will let you cooperate with Hong Kong star directors first, and then if you have the ability, like Awen, you can go to the United States!"
"Really?" Everyone cheered up.
"Well, it must be." Wen Bixia spread her hands and looked at everyone seriously, "Before I finished my studies and left Huajing, I once told everyone that we are all classmates, and within the scope of my ability I will definitely help everyone! But you also need to work hard. If you are not capable, I recommend you to go there. People will also see that you are not good and they will not come to you again next time, right? "
"That's the truth!" Jiang Wen answered next to him, "I've seen it in the United States. Even if you were a star last year, as long as you failed in a movie, you will be nothing this year and have no favors. It’s fair to say! After all, what was messed up was a business in which a large amount of money was invested!”
Hearing the two singing in harmony, including Lu Liping, couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
yes.
If you don't have the ability, you can't use favors as food!
