HCB Chapter 318 Going to find Qi Tianxiang
Chapter 318 Going to find Qi Tianxiang
Netizens couldn't help but compare the casting with that of the previous drama "Legend of Fuyao":
Who is this female lead, Luo Yutong? I've never heard of her.
[The female lead is Luo Yutong, a new actress signed to Starlight Entertainment. She's the beautiful woman who represented the company at the copyright sale event for "The Legend of Chusen".]
[Oh, her image is not bad, but she's a newcomer, and her influence can't compare to Yu Linglong from Dafeng Entertainment at all.]
[Hey! You guys missed the point! The point is, both the male lead and the second male antagonist are disgraced celebrities! The male lead is actually Chen Wang! Chen Wang, he cheated on his assistant and dumped his ex-girlfriend who helped him—if he hadn't been on the cast of "The Legend of Chusen," I would have almost forgotten about him! And Zhou Zerui, oh my god! He has a fiery temper and even hit the director on set!]
[Has Starlight Entertainment gone mad?! Casting two such important roles in two male celebrities with tarnished reputations!]
[I heard that the person who selected these two disgraced male celebrities was Jiang Youli, the newly appointed CEO of Starlight Entertainment! She's probably insane!]
[No! I really love the novel "The Ambition to Rise to Power"!]
[Look at the show next door, "Soaring to the Top," they chose Yang Yufan, an award-winning actor with absolutely no negative press! Yang Yufan + Yu Linglong, this lineup is simply unbeatable!]
[Oh my god! I'm so afraid that "The Legend of Chusen" will be canceled before filming even begins!]
Many fans of "The Legend of Chusen" also left messages under Jiang Youli's Weibo.
[Expert! Is the cast list leaked online genuine?]
[Great God! Please cherish your reputation! We have no problem with the female lead, but why choose Chen Wang and Zhou Zerui?!]
[If it's true! Before it's officially announced or filming starts, hurry up and change the actors!]
[Yeah! It's not too late to replace the actor! Zhou Zerui auditioned for Dafeng Entertainment's "Soaring High," but he was rejected because of his poor character. Why would you want to take back such a trash actor?!]
Jiang Youli chose not to respond this time, intending to let the public opinion continue to ferment until her birthday banquet ended and the casting list for "The Legend of Chusen" was officially announced, at which point she would formally respond to her fans.
What she needs to do now is to do the final promotional work before the release of her new song.
So far, the song has been kept very confidential, and it's time to reveal some information about it.
So, she posted another Weibo message: [Three new songs will be exclusively released on Hongguo Music on the 21st of this month, my birthday! Waiting for my successful comeback!]
The accompanying image is a screenshot of her competing against Jiang Zhao in a voting contest for her new song.
……
Dafeng Entertainment.
Jiang Zhaogang rushed to finish recording his last new song.
After finishing recording the last song, he took off his headset and walked out of the recording studio.
Zheng Zegang and Yu Hongtu, waiting outside the recording studio, both wore expressions of satisfaction. Zheng Zegang stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, "Jiang Zhao, the new song is of very high quality. Jiang Zhao, you're definitely going to be a hit this time!"
"By the way, your sister Jiang Youli just posted a Weibo post. Her new song will be exclusively released on Hongguo Music. Jiang Zhao, you've won again on this point. Xiaoyu said that Dafeng Entertainment will release your new song on all music platforms across the entire internet!"
Upon hearing Zheng Zegang's words, Jiang Zhao took out his phone, opened Weibo, and saw his sister Jiang Youli's latest post. His expression darkened.
His feelings were complicated at that moment. On one hand, he firmly believed that he could win. On the other hand, he didn't want his sister Jiang Youli to lose too badly, because he was afraid that she would hate him even more because of it.
Seeing his displeasure, Yu Hongtu said with dissatisfaction, "What's with this reaction? What, I went to so much trouble to promote your new song across the entire internet, and you're still not happy?"
Zheng Zegang quickly explained, "President Xiaoyu, how could Jiang Zhao not be happy? I think he's overjoyed to receive your approval, right, Jiang Zhao?"
Having received Zheng Zegang's hint, Jiang Zhao suppressed his emotions and replied insincerely, "Thank you for your recognition, Ms. Xiaoyu. I am very happy."
Yu Hongtu then said with satisfaction, "Alright, you've worked hard these past few days. Once your new song becomes a hit, I'll talk to my dad and we'll throw you a celebration banquet."
"Thank you very much, Ms. Xiaoyu," Jiang Zhao said again, though his words were not entirely sincere.
Yu Hongtu chuckled, stepped forward, and gently patted Jiang Zhao's handsome face. "Jiang Zhao, the former young master of the Jiang family, now has to watch my face. Doesn't that make you feel bad?"
Jiang Zhao's face clearly showed displeasure, and Zheng Zegang quickly smiled apologetically, "How could he dare! In his current sorry state, Mr. Xiaoyu, he should be thanking his lucky stars that you're still willing to lend him a hand!"
Yu Hongtu scoffed lightly, "Manager Zheng is more pragmatic. Alright, I'll leave the promotion of Jiang Zhao's new song to you, Manager Zheng. I only have one request: it must be released on the day of Jiang Youli's birthday banquet."
"I guarantee I'll complete the mission!" Zheng Zegang patted his chest and said.
After seeing Yu Hongtu off, Zheng Ze turned around and sternly reminded him: "Jiang Zhao, you better watch your step in front of Yu Hongtu. From now on, he will be the one in charge of Dafeng Entertainment. If we want to achieve anything in the future, we will have to look up to him. Don't think of yourself as the young master of the Jiang family anymore. If you want to become a big star and make Jiang Youli look at you with new eyes, you have to keep any dissatisfaction to yourself now."
Jiang Zhao clenched his fist and said, "I know, you don't need to remind me again and again."
Zheng Zegang said, "If I don't remind you, you'll forget who you are now! Alright, you should think about how to post a Weibo about your new song being released soon."
"it is good."
After Zheng Zegang left, Jiang Zhao planned to go back to his rented room to catch up on some sleep. He had been working hard to record songs at Dafeng Entertainment Recording Studio for the past few days and hadn't had a proper night's sleep.
After returning to his rented apartment, Jiang Zhao took a shower and was about to go back to his room to sleep when he suddenly remembered something.
His mother hasn't contacted him for several days now?
According to my mother, my eldest brother Jiang Xing was unwilling to return to Beijing with her. My mother should have returned by herself by now. Why hasn't she returned yet?
During this period, Jiang Zhao did not stay in the rented room for long. His father had been busy with something these past few days, and was often nowhere to be seen when he came back.
Forget it, all he wants to do right now is get a good night's sleep; he doesn't have the energy to think about anything else.
……
At noon.
Jiang Youli was packing her bag, preparing to head to the Qi Group to treat Qi Huan as usual, when suddenly, her cell phone, which was on her desk, rang.
It was Qi Huan calling.
Jiang Youli answered the phone and heard Qi Huan say that he was already waiting downstairs at the company.
She quickly tidied herself up and went downstairs to meet Qi Huan.
After getting into the car, Jiang Youli looked at Qi Huan and said, "Huanhuan, did you come to pick me up today because you're still planning to go find Zhou Zerui and ask me to treat Uncle Ya?"
Qi Huan shook her head and smiled faintly, "No, I'm planning to take you to find Qi Tianxiang."
