Chapter 354 The Birth of a Legend - Dump Truck!

Magic City.

Japanese author Muramatsu Shofu said in his novel Magic City, dizziness and its splendor, decay and its debauchery, lost in indulgence, I was completely addicted to such a devilish life, so, joy, surprise, sadness, I felt an indescribable excitement!

Muramatsu Shofu was probably the first person to call Shenghai Magic City. The Magic City he wrote about and the Magic City of Xu Chen's concert are not at all inconsistent.

May 21, 22, and 23.

For three days before and after, the whole Magic City was like a binge-eating search box, filled with tourists from various Asian countries, even though their ancestors had mines and were intoxicated by the magic city.

Listening to the strange accents and the chirping birds in my ears, I couldn't help complaining, the working people didn't go to work! Why did everyone come to see Xu Chen's concert? I, a local, couldn't even get a standing ticket outside the venue! !

That's right!

Standing tickets outside the venue!

This thing was somewhat outrageous in China in 2000. As the name suggests, the outer ticket means outside the stadium, treetops, telephone poles, rooftops of nearby residential buildings, and other non-official locations for concerts.

Perhaps the Shanghai authorities could not imagine that a singer's concert could squeeze so many people in, and considering safety, they arranged staff on duty to release tickets outside the stadium.

Fortunately, the tickets were free, otherwise, it would be a bit unfair to spend money to buy a treetop ticket. If there is such an unfair thing, the Shanghai Daily published a gossip.

Speaking of Xu Chen's concert, a scalper claimed to have a ticket that could go inside the stadium, with an excellent view and Xu Chen. A rich man took his girlfriend and spent tens of thousands to get on the bus.

As a result, he was tied with a rope and dragged into the toilet window. When he got to the stadium, he received the clothes of the cleaning lady. Good news, the money was not wasted. Bad news, after the concert, he swept the floor until three in the morning.

Fu Ge came to his senses and said, "I paid to sweep the floor." He was furious and reported it to the newspaper. It is said that the price of paying to sweep the floor that night increased from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands!

The smuggling route has been changed.

The toilets were renovated and closed. We had to take advantage of the dark night and climb over the iron fence of the gymnasium to the gymnasium. There was a basket in the gymnasium. We dragged it directly to the rooftop and hid in the equipment room of the gymnasium. We came out again when Xu Chen's concert was about twelve hours.

The Shanghai Daily was amused. Sharp Comments, Bloody Shanghai, Chen Long's filming was not as desperate as Xu Chen's fans!

2000.

There is no tourism official in the mainland that can show off its magical powers. The tourism industry is also not taken seriously. However, the Shanghai Tourism Official has counted the data.

Compared with 1999 and 2000, the tourism data driven by Xu Chen's concert has caught up with the entire May Day.

It should be clear that May Day is known as the Happy Golden Week. As the only tourist peak season in the whole year, many places rely on it for tourism income throughout the year.

When the official Shanghai Tourism Bureau saw the data, the marginal government finally showed its face. The leader made a decisive decision and issued a thank-you letter to Xu Chen and publicized it in the newspaper.

Of course.

The thank-you letter thanked Xu Chen for his contribution and emphasized the efforts of the Shanghai Tourism Bureau.

The Shanghai Tourism Bureau provided a lot of convenience for the concert. Xu Chen was very emotional and actively cooperated with the Shanghai Tourism Bureau’s publicity. He received the thank-you letter in front of reporters.

He told the story of him and Shanghai with emotion. At the end, Xu Chen said that Shanghai is a very beautiful and fashionable city. I like the openness and freedom of Shanghai, the old alleys of Shanghai, and I want to settle down in Shanghai in the future.

Shanghai Tourism Bureau arranged for the TV station to send staff to lead Xu Chen to travel Shanghai. During the program, Shanghai Tourism Bureau presented Xu Chen with a small two-bedroom property.

The house is in a quiet area, close to Jing'an Temple. In 2000, the housing prices in Shanghai were not expensive. Xu Chen refused and accepted it very politely.

A new achievement has been achieved.

Shanghai has a house!

I hope that Beijing, Chengdu, and the nine mainland cities where the concert will be held will quickly follow up! Xu Chen will be able to achieve a new achievement of having houses in all provincial capitals across the country.

May 25.

Xu Chen accepted an exclusive interview with Contemporary Music.

As a beacon of the mainland music scene, a spiritual mentor, and a contemporary music scene known for its sharp comments and sharpness, the authority of Contemporary Music is unquestionable. Otherwise, according to the contemporary music scene's habit of criticizing popular singers, Na Ying would have to raise his ashes.

That's right.

Contemporary Music is a conservative program, criticizing Na Ying, Sun Nan, and Liu Huan, occasionally criticizing Hong Kong and Taiwan, directly dissing the Taiwan music scene, and despising the Southeast Asian music scene. Only the mainland music scene is awesome!

To be more rigorous, only the mainland music scene Xu Chen is awesome!

Xu Chen was really surprised to see his die-hard fan, the editor-in-chief of Contemporary Music, Chen Xianjiang.

Since his debut, he has been strongly supported by the contemporary music scene, and from only occupying a corner of the contemporary music scene, he has slowly become an insert. Slowly, there were interviews and covers.

Slowly, Xu Chen, who occupied countless covers, represented the music history of the mainland music scene and also represented his history of fame.

Chen Xianjiang, who wrote the history book, was almost completely different from the serious and rigid middle-aged woman in Xu Chen's impression. Chen Xianjiang in front of him was very talkative.

Countless questions popped out of his mouth, about music, Xu Chen's life, and information. In the end, Xu Chen said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, I feel that I have no secrets in front of you."

Chen Xianjiang pushed the frame of his glasses and said humorously: "Mr. Xu, don't you think that you are the biggest secret? It is not only Mr. Xu's own secret, but also the biggest mystery in the Chinese music scene, or the Asian music scene, and perhaps the world music scene."

"As for this concert that shocked the whole city, it was really crazy. In three days, nearly 250,000 people attended Mr. Xu's concert."

Chen Xianjiang pointed to the bustling crowd outside and said in a pilgrim tone: "Mr. Xu, they are all crazy about your music, but Mr. Xu doesn't look as happy as we imagined."

Xu Chen put down his coffee cup. He really didn't think the concert was a happy event. Compared with Michael Jackson, the scale of his concert seemed...

generally? Make do?

Xu Chen shook his head and did not answer Chen Xianjiang's question.

"Mr. Xu, isn't it worth being happy?"

Chen Xianjiang twirled his fingertip pen. He liked Xu Chen's arrogance and whistled enthusiastically: "Now the mainland music scene, Mr. Xu's fans, and music dealers, Mr. Xu, look outside, I think the magic city , the whole world is immersed in the joy created by Mr. Xu.”

"260,000 people!"

"Mr. Xu, you have created a miracle in our mainland music scene. You have set a new record for the number of people in Hong Kong and Taiwan singers' concerts. You have won over Jacky Cheung, Andy Lau, Leslie Cheung, the Princess, and all the people we admire, fear, and admire." Singer, isn’t this something worth being happy about?”

Chen Xianjiang sounded very excited.

Understandable.

Don't look at the hustle and bustle of the mainland music scene. If you really look at the concerts, they are all scumbags. They are so scumbag!

As of 2000, Na Ying only had two concerts. Among them, in the 1998 concert, she was the headliner, starring Princess Wang and Jacky Cheung.

Sun Na only had eight concerts. According to the old almanac, in 1992, Indonesia, Shanghai, and Dalian,

Liu Huan has no concerts so far.

The three big battles in the mainland music scene are about to be dragged out. In an instant, the three big fools, let alone the princess, are Hong Kong singers. The princess has many concerts, but the number of people is not enough.

The most handsome guy in the Chinese music scene is Jacky Cheung.

Jacky Cheung can be called a model worker in the music industry. In 1993, Jacky Cheung held 62 concerts on the world tour. In 1995, he performed 100 concerts. Oh my, the 1999 world tour concert is here again.

66 games!

Fans all over the world are numb. From 1993 to 1999, Jacky Cheung was all over the world, and he staged the Snow Wolf Lake musical in the middle. The fans couldn't stand it anymore.

Jacky Cheung took a hiatus for two years. In 2002, Sister Jacky Cheung’s tour concert came again! Simply! So hard-working, I am really not afraid of kidney deficiency!

Zhang Xue is a beast again.

but!

Xu Chen is a beast! At the first stop of the Asian tour concert in Shanghai, 260,000 people attended the concert, with the highest number of people attending a single concert being 90,000! It set a new record for the number of people attending a Chinese music concert!

Xu Chen listened to Chen Xianjiang's science popularization and felt that Chen Xianjiang was really a crazy fan. No wonder ancient emperors liked ministers with good writing skills. He smiled slightly and said: "Editor Chen, I am still young, but it is not the time to cherish my life. As for what Editor Chen said Honor, I think it’s just..."

"so so."

Xu Chen shrugged and said casually: "It's really average. In the Japanese music scene, I have seen the GLAY band's concert with 200,000 viewers. In the European and American music circles, Michael Jackson, Celine, Madonna, their concert effects and audience They are all very worthy of recognition. The Chinese music scene is too small after all.”

"Mr. Xu, it seems that your next step is to enter the European and American music scene." Chen Xianjiang liked Xu Chen's arrogance very much.

Xu Chen is not ordinary arrogant. He is domineering and arrogant in his words. He regards the Chinese music industry as his own. So what he wants to ask next is whether Jay Chou's departure from Sony will threaten Xu Chen's status in the music industry. It's no longer necessary.

Whether Jay Chou wins or loses is not the important point. The important point is that the king of Chinese music in front of him never looks back. Those who need to look back are all his defeated enemies.

Since he is defeated, they will never be able to catch up with his back. Chen Xianjiang's fingertips trembled with excitement. Xu Chen in front of him, his final journey is to the top of the world's music.

He loves music and is a member of the mainland music scene. How could Chen Xianjiang not be honored?

The interview with the mainland music scene is very harmonious.

Chen Xianjiang chatted about music, life, relationships, and fun with an old friend he had never met but had known for a long time. Xu Chen gave Chen Xianjiang several out-of-print signed albums.

Leslie Cheung, Anita Mui, and Jacky Cheung are all from the bottom of the box, and they can't be bought with money. Xu Chen just has it easy, just search and search more, as long as you are thick-skinned, you can get everything!

On behalf of the fans, Chen Xianjiang asked Xu Chen many questions, such as very interesting questions.

Chen Xianjiang sifted out the card: "Mr. Xu, this reader from Heilongjiang would like to ask what status Xu Chen currently has in the Chinese music scene, and how far he is from the legend. Note: The legend is not Jacky Cheung or the princess. I think Xu Chen is no longer inferior to anyone in the Chinese music industry, but I don’t know if he is a legend, well, a unique legend!”

"What do you think, Mr. Xu?"

Xu Chen rubbed his chin and chuckled: "How far is it from the legend? To be honest, I don't think it is far, just a dump truck's distance."

"Dump truck?" Chen Xianjiang looked confused.

"Mr. Chen, if I die now, wouldn't I be a unique legend in the Chinese music scene?"

Xu Chen spread his hands: "The champion of the Chinese singing world."

"Hahaha."

Chen Xianjiang laughed so hard that he bent over and said with a gasp: ‘Mr. Xu, don’t say it, don’t say it, if it’s true, you are definitely a unique and unprecedented legend in the Chinese music scene! ’

“Not only is your life legendary, your music experience legendary, even your death is legendary.”

“Right.” Xu Chen held the coffee: “So the holy weapon of the Chinese music scene is the dump truck.”

After laughing for a while, Xu Chen answered the fans’ questions seriously and seriously: “I don’t know when I can achieve the legend in the fans’ mouths, maybe one year, maybe two years, maybe ten years, maybe a lifetime.”

“All are uncertain things.”

“The only thing I can be sure of is that I am on the road to legend.” Xu Chen’s eyebrows and eyes are arrogant: “Perhaps, the road I have walked is a legend.”

The interview with the contemporary music scene ends.

Huo Xiwen brought the Twins group Gillian Chung (Ah Jiao) and Charlene Choi (Ah Sa) to come. The two pure and beautiful girls are both contracted artists of Hong Kong Baoxi Films.

Huo Xiwen is very capable.

Xu Chen only built a platform for her, and Huo Xiwen was able to build a tall building and sign Joey Yung. There are rumors in the Hong Kong circle that Huo Xiwen has contacted Tony Leung Ka Fai. If Tony Leung Ka Fai is signed.

Baoxi Pictures is qualified to be called a mountain in the Hong Kong circle.

Xu Chen does not interfere with the operation of Baoxi Pictures. After all, the Hong Kong circle is shallow and can't make much money. He is more concerned about the acquisition of Xinlang, Wangyi, and Sohu stocks.

2000.

The Internet bubble, domestic Internet giants are struggling, the risk of being delisted after listing on the Nasdaq in the United States, and the capital background of the Hong Kong circle, Xu Chen feels that there is a safety rope.

Huo Xiwen brought the information, leaned against Xu Chen's arms, and talked about the company's operating status: "Brother Chen, according to your idea, I have invested in Tencent, Xinlang, and Sohu. The current situation is very ambiguous, and the situation of Wangyi is very anxious. They don't seem to be short of money."

Is Wangyi short of money?

Wangyi has lost all its money and its boss has been kicked out. If it weren't for the reading machine, it would have died long ago. The current helmsman is from Hong Kong and overseas investors.

Xu Chen leaned over Huo Xiwen's ear and whispered. Huo Xiwen frowned and couldn't help but worry, saying, "Brother Chen, Dinglei is now marginalized by the company. If we contact him, will it be in vain?"

"Now the Hong Kong and overseas circles are fighting fiercely, and Wangyi is in a hot situation. Dinglei is waiting for the opportunity to move. Now we find him and give him a helping hand. The timing is just right."

"Yeah." Huo Xiwen couldn't understand Xu Chen's idea and agreed meekly. Although she was ambitious, she was not ambitious and followed the development path set by Xu Chen.

Moving forward unswervingly, Xu Chen teased her that she was a housekeeper, but Huo Xiwen was not annoyed, saying that she was originally a housekeeper. If she really wanted her to be in charge of Baoxi Pictures, she really couldn't do it.

It's not that she doesn't have the ability to run Baoxi Pictures, but she can't bear the pressure. She has suffered from poverty since she was a child. She is heartbroken if she loses a penny, whether it's millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions.

Huo Xiwen dare not even think about it. If she thinks about it, she can't do anything. Now it's good. With Xu Chen to protect her from the wind and rain, Huo Xiwen is not afraid of anything.

Therefore.

Huo Xiwen, the thorny female boss who makes people tremble in the Hong Kong circle, likes to act like a spoiled child when she is in front of Xu Chen, like a beautiful little white cat, just wanting to rub her master's knees and nestle in her master's arms.

Twins group Gillian Chung and Charlene Choi looked like they had seen a ghost, thinking, Mr. Huo is too, so childish, so likes to act like a spoiled child, is this still Mr. Huo? (End of this chapter)
