Chapter 150. Thunder kills people and lives are not paid
At this moment, the Little Tigers concert scene was so fooled by Andy Lau, the atmosphere at the scene was high, and they drifted in the dream of music for almost two hours, and the emotions of the fans have reached the highest ~ tide.
The fans in the back row heard the shouts of the fans in front of them and couldn't help but start grabbing the binoculars, and the people who grabbed the binoculars couldn't wait to look at the stage, so that after the shouts of the fans in the front row ended, the fans in the back row began to scream again.
At this time, Chen Xuanting took the initiative to go to the stage and stood with Andy Lau, and people were crowded to see the true face of this legendary talent.
"Andy, you're really interesting, pull me along with you when you sing!" Chen Xuanting said with a smile.
"Hehe, my songs are all written by you, you have to let everyone see your true face, otherwise I will take all the credit, won't you blame me?!" Andy Lau finished speaking with a smile, and then said to the audience: "Okay, now let me sing a song he composed with Mr. Chen Xuanting, the name is -, hehe, Ah Ting, the name of the song is still yours." β
Chen Xuanting was helpless, this Andy made it clear that he wanted to show his face, "The name is "Stupid Child"! β
As Chen Xuanting's voice landed, I saw Andy Lau find a guitar from somewhere and walked to the front desk with a play.
Andy Lau played the guitar and walked towards Chen Xuanting, the two looked at each other and smiled, and at the same time faced the fans, and began to sing "Stupid Child" again: "Oh, there is a stupid child outside the quiet village, born in the Lu Zeros, when he was a teenager in the city, he was not afraid of the sun, and he worked hard to find out in the Seventeens, friends in the city don't need to irrigate, and the flowers will naturally bloom ......"
Andy Lau's voice has some characteristics of a baritone, rich in magnetic surnames. Although Chen Xuanting is not a singer, he didn't go to KTV to sing in his previous life, so he also has a little singing skills, and the most commendable thing is that the melody and tone of this song are extremely simple, so the cooperation between the two is simply seamless, and the fans are fascinated by it.
And despite the lack of any lighting effects, Chen Xuanting and Andy Lau still give people a half-real and half-illusionary feeling, as if they are a pair of best friends from the 60s.
The same love song, sung by different people, will have different effects, this "Stupid Child" in the joint interpretation of Chen Xuanting and Andy Lau revealed a kind of energetic spirit, inspiring at the same time, but also with a long aftertaste. In the end, when Andy Lau and Chen Xuanting sang affectionately and repeatedly, "God has his own arrangement, God loves stupid children", the audience was silent, and only the voices of the two echoed. It's unbelievable that this happened at a concert, but it did.
The lights gradually went out, the stage returned to darkness, and at this moment, even the three protagonists of the concert, Wu Qilong, Su Youpeng and Chen Zhipeng, were drunk.
The lights are bright again, and Chen Xuanting and Andy Lau are no longer on the stage.
The Little Tigers changed their costumes again and walked on the stage, and the song "Goodbye" came leisurely: "When parting, the curtains are opened, when the memories sleep on the chest, it is really sad to say goodbye, only the dream is still sweet, when the dragonfly no longer flies, when the butterfly no longer wanders, my heart has said goodbye to the green apple, only love is still brilliant......"
In the singing, there is a touch of sadness. Countless fans couldn't help but burst into tears, everyone knew that this time the Little Tigers disbanded, and they would be able to see them reunited in the future.
What they disbanded was not an idol group, but a dream in the hearts of many people, a youthful dream that had been with them for four years.
During the singing, Chen Xuanting accompanied Li Ruotong and quietly left the concert site. As soon as I walked to the door, I saw a lot of "dedicated" entertainment reporters coming around.
Chen Xuanting hurriedly grabbed Li Ruotong's hand and got into the car, stepped on the accelerator and turned to the road, only to hear five or six reporters shouting at the top of his voice: "Mr. Chen Xuanting, please stop, we want to give you an interview ......" "Mr. Chen, is the song you wrote tonight tailor-made for Mr. Andy Lau?" β
The engine buzzed, which was equivalent to answering their questions, Chen Xuanting drove on the road, and he, who had recently learned drag racing with Lei Yaoyang, skillfully threw these fly-like reporters behind.
"Those reporters are really troublesome!" Chen Xuanting shook his head and said.
Li Ruotong glanced at him: "Do you feel very proud now?" β
"What?" Chen Xuanting didn't understand.
"It's in the limelight, isn't it?"
Chen Xuanting smiled bitterly, "Take a look at it, it's too late for me to worry now!" β
The car drove fast on the road, only to see the street lights around it, like a connected band of light when the car drove quickly, swaying the light waves, throwing people's eyes into the distance with their thoughts.
There was nothing to say along the way, Li Ruotong seemed very calm, and the whole person was the opposite of her usual lively and active performance, if Li Ruotong liked to laugh at every turn before, like a chirping bird; So now Li Ruotong, who is sitting on the car, is lifeless, as if he is thinking about something.
Fortunately, Chen Xuanting seems to have long been accustomed to the scene of the car being silent, holding the steering wheel with one hand and banging on the armrest of the chair with the other...... The evening breeze in Taipei blows gently...... The car roared through the tunnel, through the bustling metropolis, and when passing a deserted night market stall, Li Ruotong, who had not spoken all the time, spoke: "Please stop." β
Chen Xuanting turned the steering wheel in a daze, lightly stepped on the brakes and leaned the car on the side of the road.
"I'm hungry and want to eat the beef noodles there!" Li Ruotong pointed to the night market stall outside, and saw an old woman not far away guarding a beef noodle stall built in a simple shed, full of life like an oil painting in the silent night.
The corners of Chen Xuanting's mouth curled and smiled: "After driving for so long, my legs are numb, so it's good to move down." β
The two got out of the car, Li Ruotong raised his delicate handbag, as if he had regained his previous cheerfulness, and said with a smile: "Taipei's beef noodles are very famous, if you invite me to watch a concert, I will invite you to eat beef noodles." β
Chen Xuanting always felt that something seemed wrong with her, but somehow, he had to smile and say, "Okay, I'm also a little hungry, it's good to try the snacks here." Chen Xuanting smiled and came to the old woman's beef noodle stall with Li Ruotong.
"Grandma, bring us two bowls of beef noodles." Li Ruotong took out Taiwan dollars and handed it over.
The old woman took the Taiwan dollar, probably because she was too old to look good, looked at it carefully, and then said, "I'm sorry, girl, do you have any change, I can't find this money?" β
Li Ruotong smiled: "It's okay, you don't need to look for more!" β
Grandma hurriedly thanked her.
The two came to the table, Chen Xuanting took out a napkin to help her wipe the table and chairs, Li Ruotong said "thank you" and sat down.
Suddenly, the old woman brought the prepared beef noodles to them.
Li Ruotong seems to like to eat these snacks on the stall, and he doesn't think the chopsticks are dirty, so he just picks them up and eats them.
Chen Xuanting habitually wiped his chopsticks with a napkin, and then put down the chopsticks.
The beef noodles are fragrant, and Li Ruotong eats them very deliciously.
Chen Xuanting tasted it, the beef noodles were very strong, it was rare that the soup was delicious, and after a few sips, a spicy taste immediately spread in his mouth...... "The taste is really good." Chen Xuanting praised.
Li Ruotong: "Of course, the beef noodles here are famous. I remember being a kid and I loved to eat noodles. Whenever I cried, my mom would make a bowl of fragrant rice to make me happy. Sometimes when I'm hungry, I pretend to cry, and I can eat such a good thing. Growing up, working as a flight attendant, flying around every day, my greatest pleasure is not to go shopping for clothes like everyone else, but to enjoy tasting pasta from all over the world. Because eating good noodles, I feel like home, as if these are all made by my mother......"
Li Ruotong's eyes seemed to have hope for happiness flashing.
"Actually, when I was a child, my biggest wish was not to be a flight attendant like I am now, but to be a dancerβ"
"No wonder you danced so well last time you danced rumba!" Chen Xuanting interjected.
Li Ruotong smiled, "It's a pity that the financial burden on my family was relatively large at that time, so I gave up." It's always been a regret of mine. The older you get, the more obvious this regret becomes. β
Chen Xuanting seemed to hear something from her words.
"Be a man, don't leave regrets, this is what I always say to myself. But two people who are obviously not in the same world insist on being together, you say, will it become more regrettable in the future? Li Ruotong looked at Chen Xuanting with beautiful eyes and said.
Chen Xuanting nodded: "I understand what you mean, but in my opinion, even if you are not people living in the same world, you can be together, the reason is very simple, because even if you really want to regret it, let it wait until later!" He gently shook Li Ruotong's hand with his hand.
Li Ruotong broke free and did not pull away.
The grandmother next to her suddenly interjected, "Young man, the most important thing is to cherish the person in front of you, don't wait until you lose it and then regret it-hey, my wife-"
Chen Xuanting and Li Ruotong glanced at each other, and at that moment, they read a lot of things from each other's eyes
The three days passed quickly, and Chen Xuanting and Andy Lau flew back to Hong Kong by plane.
After a rest on the same day, Chen Xuanting gradually released his emotions from that solemn atmosphere, and as for meeting his mother in Taiwan, Chen Xuanting also told his father Chen Darong. I thought that my father would be emotional, but Chen Darong seemed very calm.
After all, it was fifteen years ago, and as a man, Chen Darong felt that he was responsible for his sister-in-law's side. As for the previous grievances, it should be a flowing water.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xuanting breathed a sigh of relief. And the TV series "Golden Branches" has been broadcast while filming, and the ratings have been sung all the way with the development of the plot, and there is a good reputation, and it seems that it has broken through 30 points, which is definitely a very good phenomenon for costume dramas that do not have big-name stars in charge - different from the two kings of "Step by Step". As for whether this drama can surpass "Step by Step" in the end, it is still very difficult to conservatively estimate.
There is no big problem in the production of TV dramas, so Chen Xuanting focused on the two variety shows of TVB.
"If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" has two pistachio partners, Zeng Zhiwei and Shen Dianxia, the ratings are also very stable, and the program brand has gradually become famous, although it is not comparable to a major variety show like "Happy Tonight", but it has also opened up a new world in the "blind date" column.
In contrast, the "Hong Kong Got Talent" program is a little difficult to handle, first of all, there was favoritism during the audition, and many players with poor skills were announced, which aroused heated discussions among the audience, and then there was a scandal of female contestants bribing referees, which pushed this column to the forefront of public opinion.
Some media commented: "Where is this Hong Kong's Got Talent, it's a scandal show!" Others said: "Hong Kong's Got Talent just exposes the current situation of today's variety shows that are in a hurry to succeed!" β
β¦β¦ The media commented badly, but the faction headed by Fang Yihua in the top management of TVB couldn't keep their mouths together, retribution, this is retribution! Let you Chen Xuanting jump high, and shoot the first bird!
With such a grim situation, Chen Xuanting had to stand up and make a vigorous rectification.
First of all, the jury was repackaged, and Huang Zhan, known as the holy hand of music, was selected as the leader of the judges. Huang Zhan's words are sharp and often witty, and it is perfect to be such a judge. Secondly, the other two judges are served by King Liming and Hong Kong's No. 1 beauty Li Jiaxin. The golden boy and girl are absolutely eye-catching.
Secondly, in terms of selection, those who have no special skills, can only show off some wind scratching, and have a hippie smile. And those contestants who have specialties and stories will go deep into it, explore the stories behind them, and intersperse them in the program competitions to sensationalize the audience.
In the end, Chen Xuanting revived this variety show through poster promotion, advertising insertion before the TV series "Golden Branches", etc., which gave him new vitality.
Of course, the above strategies also have to pay a price, such as high advertising costs, appearance fees for hiring guest referees, and labor costs for recording programs, etc., which also makes the program team miserable. Fortunately, Chen Xuanting, the God of Wealth, would have been off the horse, otherwise a show like this would have been discontinued.
Even so, many people are still not very optimistic about this show, Fang Yihua said in front of the media at a cocktail party: "For me, the "Hong Kong Got Talent" program is simply a bottomless pit that cannot be filled, and the funds invested by our TV station are enough to shoot three big-budget TV series! β
"I don't have too high expectations for this drama, I just hope that it can come out of the bad reviews and give everyone a clear sky."
"As for Chen Xuanting's producer, what I want to say is that being young does not mean that you can do something wrong; Talent doesn't mean you win every game! β
β¦β¦ Just when everyone was not optimistic about this variety show, what was surprising was that a miracle man suddenly appeared on the stage and conquered all the audience and judges with a catchy song "The Heart is Too Soft".
Needless to say, this person is "Gu Tianle" who played the little eunuch in "Golden Branches"!
It was November 16th, and in the middle of the show, Louis Koo came on the stage. His appearance on the stage is very special, and he is very "dry if there is no sale".
Speaking from the heart, it is a bit of a loss of conscience to say that Gu Tianle is not a handsome guy. But if it is matched with his outfit today, it will be ...... In terms of his hairstyle today, he feels like a thunderbolt, as if he has been struck by lightning, messy, like a ball of thatch. All in all, the whole hair makes it feel like the person is being electrocuted.
He was covered with an old, colorless checkered shirt, a cheap jacket over it, faded jeans underneath, and holes in his knees to show his flesh.
As for his shoes, they were basically old leather shoes from the garbage dump, and they also opened their mouths and showed their toes.
In addition, he carried a fishskin sack on his back and an empty wine bottle in his hand. A tattered look.
When Louis Koo appeared at the selection site, the audience was amazed. And wherever he passed, because of his tattered shape, he was invincible, and the crowd automatically dispersed a path to let him move forward. So Louis Koo didn't say hello to him, so he crossed many audiences and went straight to the stage.
And when he stood in the center of the stage with his head held high and majestic, Huang Zhan, who was in charge of acting as a judge, Li Ming and Li Jiaxin, all looked at each other and were collectively stupid.
According to normal logic, people dressed up in this kind of costume should be out directly, but the problem is that what "Hong Kong's Got Talent" wants is to be "different". Greatly satisfy people's curiosity.
This one...... How do you do this?
According to normal logic, what the judges cannot decide, they should consult their superiors. So, the three of them looked at the program group at a high place. But they found that when they looked over, they saw a man there in a V pose.
And this young man who is in a posture of V is Chen Xuanting. After comparing this posture, he immediately said to the assistant next to him: "Go, find all the reporters who can be found, and tell the jury by the way, let this contestant play to his heart's content." β
When Chen Xuanting's instructions reached the ears of the three judges through the headset, the three of them saw the sad expressions on each other's faces, "No." "The heart said, the talent show has been badly reviewed, will this be said to be "grandstanding"?!
