Chapter 170 Crystal Princess, Fei Yue 18

Diaoyutai State Guesthouse is a complex of buildings that combines ancient royal gardens and modern hotels.

August 25, 2005, a little after 1 p.m.

Wu Yuan drove himself to this state guesthouse that is specially used to receive foreign guests.

Liu Yifei's coming-of-age ceremony this year was held here.

Of course, the press release said so, but what the press release would never say is that although Liu Yifei's coming-of-age ceremony was held in the state guesthouse, it could not be held in buildings 1-18.

Each of these state guest buildings in the state guesthouse has an important purpose, and they are all used to receive foreign leaders and diplomats.

Even if Liu Yifei's godfather is rich, it is impossible to hold this coming-of-age ceremony in the building.

In fact, today's coming-of-age ceremony was not organized by Liu Yifei's godfather alone.

Under the guidance of the staff of Red Star Wu Media, Wu Yuan and his assistant quickly came to the large lawn between Building 2 and Building 3 of the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.

On the lawn, a stage has been built.

The background of the entire stage is pink, and in the center of the background there is a beautifully designed symbol that looks like both a logo and a title.

"Crystal Princess/Fei Yue 18"

On both sides of the stage background, there are two lines of titles.

The left line reads "Huaxia Federation of Literary and Art Performing Arts Center, Liu Yifei's entry into the music world thank-you party."

The right line reads "Red Star Wu Media Company·Sony Japan, Crystal Princess Fei Yue 18th Birthday Party."

Co-authoring such an adult ceremony also includes a signing ceremony with Sony and a thank-you party for entering the music world.

It feels like it's for business reasons, which is more important than personal matters.

Why not hold it separately?

Wu Yuan frowned, feeling a little dissatisfied.

But before he could think about it, a middle-aged man in a polo shirt, of medium build and a somewhat fierce face, came up to him immediately after seeing Wu Yuan.

"Director Wu, welcome, welcome to attend Xixi's coming-of-age ceremony."

"You are Xixi's benefactor, please take a seat."

This man is Liu Yifei's godfather Chen Jingfei.

Wu Yuan actually met him several times. Sometimes he would go to school with Liu Xiaoli to pick up Liu Yifei, and he also visited the crew of "Your Name".

In general, this godfather is really willing to spend money and effort on Liu Yifei's acting career.

But Wu Yuan really doesn't like him, and his impression of him is not very good.

Most of the capitalists of their generation who have started from industry have a dirty background. Simply put, most of them made their fortunes by doing gray industries.

Although it may seem that they have been cleaned up now, there is always the risk of being investigated by the higher-ups.

Later, he was indeed sent to prison for some tax and improper business issues.

Perhaps this is why Chen Jingfei values ​​and supports Liu Yifei and her daughter so much.

Not only because the two families are old friends, but also because entering the entertainment industry is a good way to whitewash Chen Jingfei's career.

This is something that countless gangsters in Hong Kong and Taiwan have confirmed.

After a lot of twists and turns in his mind, Wu Yuan shook hands with him calmly and said politely: "Sissi invited me so kindly, I have to come."

Chen Jingfei's smile became brighter, and his ferocious face looked much more amiable.

He personally led Wu Yuan to the first table closest to the stage to sit down.

There were already several guests who arrived earlier than him sitting here.

The first table was naturally occupied by some guests who were very important to Liu Yifei.

For example, Zhang Jizhong, the director of "The Golden Age", the producer of "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" and "The Return of the Condor Heroes", the leader of the Federation of Literary and Art Performing Arts Center, the person in charge of Sony Japan, etc.

Wu Yuan sitting here was not out of place.

He was the director of "Your Name" and the director of "Love", and brought Liu Yifei the top star record of the female lead with a box office of 2.8 billion.

Wu Yuan, who was sitting here, exchanged a few words with his tablemates, and was a little curious about why Li Guoli and Hu Ge from "Chinese Paladin 1" didn't come.

Then he suddenly remembered that "The Fairy from the Other World" was being filmed, and they didn't have time to attend Liu Yifei's coming-of-age ceremony.

"Hey, Director Wu, this way!" A call came from the next table. Wu Yuan looked over and happened to see Huang Xiaoming waving at him.

"Brother Xiaoming, you're here too." Wu Yuan smiled and stood up and hugged him.

"How could they not come? Almost all the crew of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" came, except for those who were not in China."

Yes, Wu Yuan looked around and saw that the second table was basically full of actors from the "The Return of the Condor Heroes" crew, the third table was full of cast and crew from the "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" crew, and the fourth table was full of cast and crew from "Your Name".

Only the fifth table had fewer people from "Chinese Paladin", after all, the cast and actors of "Chinese Paladin" were almost all from Tangren, and they were all in the "The Fairy from the Other World" crew.

Wu Yuan's arrival can be said to have caused quite a stir among the actors.

Seeing Huang Xiaoming take the initiative to talk to Wu Yuan and say hello, Hu Jun and Lin Zhiying also took the initiative to come over and say hello: "Hello, Director Wu, I didn't expect you to come."

Especially Lin Zhiying, he looked quite emotional, he didn't expect Wu Yuan, who had a scandal with Liu Yifei, to be here today.

You know, there will be reporters on the scene at that time.

If Wu Yuan is filmed, I'm afraid there will be another scandal tomorrow.

Lin Zhiying sighed in his heart. In fact, when he was filming "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", he had some good feelings for Liu Yifei, although she was really young at that time.

However, time has changed. He also met Chen Ruoyi last year and fell in love with her at first sight. Now he is pursuing Chen Ruoyi fiercely. His good feelings for Liu Yifei have long faded.

He showed a flattering smile and said to Wu Yuan enthusiastically: "I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to meet the most powerful director in our China. It's still Xixi's face."

This statement praised both sides. Don't hit a smiling person. In addition, Lin Zhiying is actually a good person. In addition to loving to set up a persona in technology, he doesn't have any bad habits.

So Wu Yuan also smiled and greeted him: "I have heard of the name of the Asian whirlwind for a long time. If there is a chance in the future, I must cooperate."

Well, Wu Yuan still remembers "The Star of Sheep", a Taiwanese idol drama that was a big hit in the mainland.

The company's idol drama strategy, if it wants to go steadily and well, this TV series must not be missed.

The Korean heroine can be replaced by a mainland actress, and the male lead can continue to use Lin Zhiying.

And Hu Jun, Wu Yuan did not ignore him.

This is a good actor. He almost became Pang Yong in "Painted Skin", but Wu Yuan pulled Zhang Guorong again, so he didn't give him this role.

Wu Yuan and Hu Jun know each other. When Zhang Guorong was filming "Stealing Hearts", Hu Jun was the male lead and Wu Yuan was the producer.

"Haha, Director Wu, we meet again." Hu Jun's personality is carefree. He came up and gave Wu Yuan a bear hug.

However, just when he was about to chat with Wu Yuan about the recent situation, an excited shout interrupted their conversation.

"Senior brother! You are here!"

Liu Yifei, wearing a pair of stilettos, ran over.

She might have been doing makeup and hair styling in the backstage before.

Although she is 18 years old and an adult, her style is still relatively conservative. She wears a T-shirt with lace shoulder decorations on her upper body and a light yellow gauze skirt that reaches her ankles on her lower body.

Overall, it is still a very conservative and pure style.

However, perhaps to distinguish her from "adulthood", her hair is no longer straight black as before, but has been permed and turned into wavy curls.

Not to mention, Wu Yuan was a little uncomfortable at first glance.

Since she first met her, Liu Yifei has always maintained a long and flowing black straight hair. This is the first time Wu Yuan has seen her curly hair.

"Xixi, your curly hair" he twitched his mouth, a little embarrassed

"How is it, does it look good?" Liu Yifei turned around Wu Yuan and asked excitedly and happily: "Do you feel like a mature woman?"

"Brother, today I am 18 years old and an adult!"

"Yes, yes, yes" Wu Yuan agreed casually, waved to his assistant Xiao Zhang, and Xiao Zhang immediately came over with a big gift box.

Xiao Zhang kept and carried this gift box all the way.

"Brother, is this for me?" Liu Yifei, who had sharp eyes, saw the gift box at a glance and asked in surprise.

"Today is your birthday. If it's not for you, then who else?" Wu Yuan took the gift box from Xiao Zhang with a smile.

There were two gifts in it, both specially prepared by Wu Yuan.

"Do you want to open it here?" He asked Liu Yifei with a smile.

The little girl pricked up her ears and looked around. She found that the people who were around Wu Yuan just now had all returned to their seats consciously.

Moreover, the guests and guests at other tables were also chatting tacitly, and they didn't pay any attention to them at all.

Or rather, they didn't dare to pay attention.

Liu Yifei smiled, "Brother, what did you give me? Can you tell me in advance? Then I'll go back and see it!"

Wu Yuan shook his head gently: "You should open it yourself when the time comes."

He blinked mischievously at Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei, who had always had the impression that Wu Yuan was steady and mature, had never seen him like this before. She opened her mouth slightly in surprise, and then her face turned red.

Is Senior Brother acting like a spoiled child?

She lowered her head, took the gift box, and subconsciously weighed it. It was quite heavy.

"What is it?" Liu Yifei muttered softly, and then smiled sweetly at Wu Yuan: "Then I will go backstage to prepare, the signing ceremony will start soon."

Yes, today's coming-of-age ceremony, the first thing that started was Liu Yifei's signing ceremony with Sony, followed by the thank-you party for entering the music scene organized by the Federation of Literary and Art Performing Arts Center, and finally in the evening, it was the coming-of-age ceremony party.

"Okay, you go and get busy first, happy birthday." Wu Yuan reached out and patted Liu Yifei's head.

"Yeah!" Liu Yifei held the gift box, tilted her head back and nodded vigorously, smiling very sweetly.

There will be three updates today (my today is from 6 pm to 6 am the next day).

I've been sick these days and my schedule has been a bit messed up, so I've been updating very late.

After I finish the remaining three chapters, I should be able to adjust back to the normal 11 o'clock update.
