Chapter 281: Rookie Singing Contest
Shooting Pepsi commercials is much easier than playing a variety of professions, and Chen Lang even feels that he is like a fish in water, because Pepsi commercials only need to be handsome.
You have to be handsome when you sit down, you have to be handsome when you eat, you have to be handsome when you stick out your tongue when you are spicy, you have to be handsome when you catch Pepsi, and you have to be handsome when you drink.
It seems that Pepsi just wants Chen Lang's super popularity and explosive appearance in Hong Kong and Taiwan now, Chen Lang is also happy, and the female staff on the side of the various handsome moves that he learned in later generations are full of hearts, and the advertising director is also bright, and he no longer commands, let Chen Lang play freely, and then Chen Lang happily played for a few hours before ending this advertising shooting.
After filming the Pepsi commercial, Chen Lang and Tang Xiaomei traveled together and started their own two-person world.
In the sweet two-person world of Chen Lang and Tang Xiaomei, Chen Lang found that advertisements for rookie singing contests can be seen everywhere in Hong Kong now.
Looking at the poster on the wall, it actually reads, "Supernova in the music world, Lang Lang is waiting for you!" Tang Xiaomei, who was leaning on Chen Lang's shoulder, smiled, "You have become a golden sign now." ”
"Of course, your boyfriend is the most handsome of the singers, and the most handsome of the guys can sing." Chen Lang comfortably hugged the fragrant delicate body, and said flowers.
"Poof, you're so narcissistic." Tang Xiaomei stretched out her hand and twisted it lightly on Chen Lang's handsome face.
Chen Lang suddenly turned his face and took Tang Xiaomei's green jade fingers in his mouth, Tang Xiaomei suddenly blushed and hid in Chen Lang's arms and pretended to be an ostrich, not daring to come out, Chen Lang laughed evilly.
Just as the two of them were enjoying a rare afternoon, they suddenly heard a discussion.
"Did you see the poster about the rookie singing contest held by Huaxing Records and TVB?" A girl asked.
"Of course I saw it, now all the newspapers have the news of this singing contest, it's hard not to see it, what's wrong?"
The first person to speak seemed to be silent for a moment, and then heard "You don't want to participate in this rookie singing contest, do you?" ”
"Hmm!" The volume of this voice is so low that it is almost impossible to hear if you don't listen carefully.
"You really want to participate in this contest, are you not kidding?"
"No, I've been thinking about it for a long time and I think it's an opportunity and I want to try it once." This time the voice was much firmer.
"But...... That's fine, I will take care of the performance of the song and dance troupe during this time, and you can concentrate on the singing competition. And Ah Fang, your singing skills are very good, maybe you can be like your idol Lang Lang, participate in the competition and win the first place, and then I think that he is so popular now, after becoming a big star, our family will not have to work so hard. ”
"Well, I will definitely try my best to get a good ranking, if I can get the signing of Huaxing Records, then I will be able to get a lot of money, and my family will be a lot easier."
"Well, come on, Ah Fang!"
……
Chen Lang and Tang Xiaomei, who were tired of being together, both sat up straight after hearing what seemed to be a conversation between the two sisters.
Tang Xiaomei wanted to hear what they were talking about because she heard a girl mention her boyfriend.
Chen Lang didn't care at first when he heard that a girl wanted to participate in the rookie singing contest, but after hearing the title of "Ah Fang", he thought that this was the first rookie singing contest, and sat up straight all of a sudden.
After the two girls finished speaking, Chen Lang got up directly and came to the sisters.
The two sisters, who were still talking in a low voice, suddenly felt that someone had come to their side, raised their heads to look, and then there was a scream, "Lang Lang!" I'm not mistaken, it's really Chen Lang. ”
Chen Lang put his finger to his lips to signal not to make a sound, and the screaming girl immediately covered her mouth when she saw Chen Lang's movements, and Chen Lang then looked at the girl who was looking at him in a daze.
A head of silky hair draped behind his shoulders, the face without powder is very clean, the girl at this time has not yet had the ever-changing style of the later generations, and the appearance in her memory is quite different, but you can vaguely see the shadow of adulthood.
"I heard you two talking about going to the Rookie Singing Contest, right?" Chen Lang looked at the girl in front of him and smiled happily.
"Are you Lang Lang?" The stunned girl seemed to turn around and asked in a low voice.
"If you still don't believe it, then I'll prove it to you. Pepe, come here. Chen Lang beckoned to Tang Xiaomei, who was stretching out her little head and looking at the two girls curiously.
Hearing this, Tang Xiaomei straightened out her scattered hair, and only after making sure that it was okay did she walk to Chen Lang's side, stopped Chen Lang's arm, and said hello with a smile, "Hello, I'm Tang Peipei, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
The two sisters actually knew that it was Chen Lang in front of them, after all, Chen Lang's current figure is all over the streets and alleys of Hong Kong, like locusts crossing the border, leaving not an inch of land, and the two sisters are still fans of Chen Lang, how could they not know each other.
And after seeing Tang Xiaomei coming, the girl who saw Chen Lang screaming at the beginning said with some excitement, "Hello Lang Lang, I like you so much, Hello Peipei, the real person is much more beautiful than in the newspaper, I am Mei Aifang, this is my sister Anita Mui." ”
Anita Mui was also nervous and excited, after all, her idol suddenly appeared in front of her, the excitement can be imagined, and after trying hard several times, she stumbled a little and said, "Hello Lang Lang, I'm Anita Mui, and I'm a member of Lang Lang's fan club." ”
That's right, the two girls in front of her are the ever-changing queen Anita Mui and her sister Mei Aifang.

During the same period, the album "Bad Girl" won eight platinum sales in just one week, and exceeded 720,000 copies in three months, becoming one of the highest-selling records in Hong Kong. From 1985 to 1989, she won the "Most Popular Female Singer" in Hong Kong's top ten golden songs for five consecutive years. Although affected by the ban in the mainland, classics such as "Woman Flower", "Intimate Lover", and "Love You a Thousand Times in My Life" are still popular in the mainland. There are more than 40 albums in Cantonese. In 1998, he won the "Golden Needle Award", the highest honor in the Hong Kong music scene. In 2009, she was evaluated by the "World Records Association" and was elected as the "Most Female Singers in the World's Chinese Solo Concerts" with a total of 292 solo concerts around the world.
From 1987 to 1988, she won the Academy Award, the Golden Horse Award, the Golden Dragon Award, and the Asia-Pacific Film Festival with "Rouge Buckle" [10]. [2] Won two Academy Awards for Best Supporting Actress. Filming is involved in literature and art ("Rouge Buckle", "Kawashima/Yoshiko", "Half Life", "Man Forty"), action ("Three Heroes of the East", "True Colors of Heroes 3"), comedy ("Judge of the Dead", "Drunken Fist II", "Zhong Wuyan") and other roles.
In addition to her acting career, she is enthusiastic about public welfare and charity, and established the "Anita Mui Four Seas One Heart Charity Foundation" on July 27, 1993. The obituary was published.
On July 18, 2014, the bronze statue of Anita Mui was erected on the Hong Kong Avenue of Stars.
Anita Mui in Chen Lang's memory is more of an image of a female singer with a variety of shapes and infinite charms on the stage, which is too different from the little girl who looks fresh and natural now.
In the Hong Kong music scene in the mid-to-late 80s, male singers were naturally Tam and Zhang competing for hegemony, and the stars of the two were dazzling, and in terms of female singers, Anita Mui was glamorous.
In the mid-to-late 80s, Anita Mui led the way, and the five golden flowers of Ye, Lin, Chen, Kuang, and Liu were in full bloom, and it was also the golden generation of Hong Kong female singers!
"Overheard your conversation, are you going to participate in the rookie singing contest?" Chen Lang looked at Anita Mui, who was still small and fresh, and asked with a smile.
"Yes, I think I sing pretty well, so I want to try it out for a competition." Anita Mui seemed to have eased up, the whole person relaxed a lot, and she spoke with confidence.
Maybe when he was young, he followed his mother's song and dance troupe to perform everywhere, saying that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early, even if they are still young, but Anita Mui's eyes are determined and persistent.
"Yes, the purpose of our Huaxing Records holding this singing contest is to discover people with musical talent, sing if they want to, sing their hearts, and sing their dreams." Chen Lang said with a smile, but he was a little suspicious of advertising.
"Lang Lang, you also think I can participate in the competition, right?" Although Anita Mui still looked very calm, her eyes seemed to brighten a lot when she heard Chen Lang's encouragement.
"Of course, I'm just a singer, I like to sing, and I also hope that there will be some star singers among my fans. Chen Lang pretended to say, making the three girls laugh.
"Thank you, Lang Lang, I will definitely work hard to compete, and I won't embarrass the people in the fan group." Anita Mui's bright eyes were full of fighting spirit and hope.
"There is nothing to be ashamed of, the most important thing is to maintain a normal heart, only in a peaceful mood can you walk into the song, sing the melody and taste of the song, and let everyone integrate into your singing." Chen Lang has participated in the Asian Amateur Singing Competition and has some experience, so he has some experience for his future junior sister and the first sister of the future Hong Kong music scene.
In fact, Anita Mui performed on stage with her sister when she was very young, and her performance experience is richer than Chen Lang, but after all, there is still this difference between song and dance troupe performances and competition performances.
The competition performance will be eliminated, unlike the performance of their own song and dance troupe, so what kind of song to choose during the competition, how to restrain the tension in the heart and play a normal level are very important.
"Okay, that's all for the time being, it's up to you to make your own efforts, if you need anything, you can contact me by phone at any time, and I'll do my best to help you." After Chen Lang finished speaking, he found a pen and paper and wrote down the phone number at home and the phone number of the company, and then waved goodbye.
Anita Mui clenched the note in her hand and looked at Chen Lang in the distance, her eyes were grateful and firm.
