"This sentence comes from when Yang Shan was filming her first movie. I was so angry that I almost changed actors. In order to help Yang Shan, Tang Xiaoxiao specially showed her how to act in this part. I think of Yang Shan's acting skills back then. It was all taught by Tang Xiaoxiao little by little. The scene Yao Fei performed just now was very similar to Tang Xiaoxiao's style... Xiaoxiao, Miss Yao is similar to you, not only in appearance and demeanor, but also in the performance just now That part is somewhat similar to yours."
Cao Hao was quite emotional and shook his head helplessly, "It's a pity that Yang Shan didn't cherish Tang Xiaoxiao as a friend. If she were still alive now, she would probably regret it to death, right?"
Yao Fei ignored the two people's compliments and just smiled brighter, with a strange brilliance shining in her bright eyes, "Director Tang, is my performance up to par?"
Tang Xiaoxiao did not speak, but quietly rubbed the jade bracelet on her wrist, thinking quietly, this Yao Fei's performance... Whether it was from the look or the pace, it seemed to be somewhat similar to her, - like this Does mere imitation count as talent
"Let's do this, Yao Fei." Tang Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment and said calmly, "You sign with Xinghua Entertainment first, and I will arrange for you to appear in other people's film and television dramas in a series of cooperation with Mango Channel. I will give you a few suitable roles to familiarize you with acting, and then take your time in my dramas. If I directly assign you the heroine position in a film or television drama, you will be gossiped about, and you must not want to do this. Is it right?"
Yao Fei nodded thoughtfully.
After bidding farewell to the crew and Yao Fei, Tang Xiaoxiao stood quietly at the street corner, followed by Jialan and Xue Xiaohan, completely immersed in silence.
"Boss, do you really want to use Yao Fei's road to get through to Canaro, Indonesia?" Xue Xiaohan licked his lips and asked in a low voice, "Isn't this too risky? After all, we don't know much about Indonesia. We are familiar with it, and dealing with important strategic resources such as oil and natural resources requires a huge capital chain, we... "
Tang Xiaoxiao didn't speak, but quietly took out an invitation and placed it in front of Xue Xiaohan.
"This is..." Xue Xiaohan was slightly startled.
"It was an invitation sent to me by Mr. Yu, asking me to attend his eightieth birthday." Tang Xiaoxiao gently rubbed the center of his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "When I went to Yu's house during the Chinese New Year last year, Mr. Yu said He mentioned my marriage to Yu Lingye. When I passed by for a visit a while ago, he mentioned it again. I had been putting it off... but I refused it twice in a row. If he does it again this time, Speaking of which, how do you want me to refuse?"
"This..." Xue Xiaohan fell silent.
"I have to go this time, but if I go, I will have to face my marriage to Yu Lingye again. If I refuse again... I'm afraid that Mr. Yu will take extraordinary measures to force me to marry Yu Lingye." Thinking of this, Tang Xiaoxiao suddenly raised his head, looked at the dark sky, and let out a long sigh, "The Tang family is indeed rich, but facing the Yu family at the peak of power, what does this little money mean?"
"Isn't it okay not to get married?" The heart-throb couple. Yu Lingye, will not be your lover."
Tang Xiaoxiao's smile became increasingly bitter and helpless, dragging her exhausted body, she gently bent down and sat down on the cement platform on the street. She no longer looked like the majestic queen outside, holding her knees with her arms. Her eyes were distracted and helpless, and she murmured, "Xiaohan, there are some things that you don't have to do whether you want to or not. If I were the daughter of an ordinary family, maybe I could really find the man who makes my heart beat. Holding his hand and walking together... Unfortunately, I am not. I am the eldest lady of the Tang family and the future head of the Tang family. My marriage represents a change in the entire Tang family. My marriage represents a fortune. Huge wealth! Xiaohan, really... you don’t have to do some things if you don’t want to."
"Boss..." Xue Xiaohan didn't know what to say.
"I am anxious to take control of this oil and natural gas resource. I just want the two highly respected people in power, Mr. Yu and Mr. Ji, to be wary of me, or at least not to force me easily. The reason why I dream of becoming a queen, —I just don’t want to leave my destiny to others to decide. I want to be my own queen. Is this wrong?”
Having said this, Tang Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and buried her face between her knees. Although she couldn't see her expression, she could see her slightly trembling shoulders...
After such a simple episode, everything in life was proceeding according to its own rules. However, when the box office results came out in the third week, some people's jaws were completely shocked!
The movie "Drawing Water" directed by Tang Xiaoxiao has soared with a box office of 47 million, leading the summer movie schedule. The delicate and beautiful pictures and the twists and turns of the plot make this movie a leader among summer low-cost movies. At the same time, the movie "Six Days" shot by Ying Tiandong finally lost its original arrogant attitude, and its box office dropped back to around 20 million in the third week. Originally, because of the star-studded cast in the movie "Six Days" The resulting star power, due to the boring and trashy content of the film, completely ended its myth.
In the fourth week of box office, the movie "Drawing Water" continued to sing at the box office, breaking through the 50 million box office mark with an extremely stable momentum, and becoming one of the most profitable small-budget movies of the year; the movie "Six Days" completely It fell silent, submerged in the many domestic and foreign blockbusters of the summer.
Until the movie "Draining Water" was released, the box office of "Draining Water" exceeded the 200 million mark. At the same time, the total cost of the movie was only a few million people...
Just when "Draining Water" was released, Tang Xiaoxiao finally fulfilled her promise and donated 100 million on the spot at the public charity gala held by the Tang Charity Foundation, and personally donated an additional 20 million to charity. .
Following the movie "Drawing Water", Tang Xiaoxiao shot two other low-cost charity movies one after another, which completely triggered a craze about charity movies and led to a new type of film industry. At the same time, with the emergence of more and more charity films, about out-of-school children, about the western region, about poor families... these groups in need of assistance have increasingly attracted the attention of the whole society and have been favored by the public. their attention.
For a time, there was actually a wave of private charity and public welfare, and the Tang Charity Foundation, because of its strict supervision mechanism, became the largest private charity foundation in the country.
In the CEO office of Shengshi Entertainment, He Zusheng glared at Ying Tiandong who was standing at the door with a dark face. The sunlight outside the floor-to-ceiling window reflected on the white suit, and the warm color formed a shadow with the darkened face. Strong contrast.
"Ying Tiandong, what else do you have to explain?" He Zusheng asked through gritted teeth.
Ying Tiandong shuddered and stood with his head bowed, "Yes, I'm sorry... President He, I really don't know why this is happening. It is obviously a movie with a strong lineup, why did it suddenly have a sudden box office hit in the third week?" However, "Drawing Water", which had no star, became the box office champion."
"I don't want to care about why this is the case, because what I see now is that this high-cost movie cost our Shengshi Entertainment hundreds of millions of yuan... hundreds of millions of yuan! Why did you promise me with your chest in the beginning that you would do your best? Suppressing Tang Xiaoxiao? - Is this your guarantee?!" He Zusheng asked coldly.
Ying Tiandong opened his lips. He was about to defend himself, but after thinking about the hundreds of millions of yuan he had lost, he finally said nothing.
He Zusheng took a deep breath, and couldn't help but have a headache when he thought about another director who had to terminate his contract with the company recently. He rubbed his brows, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said patiently, "Do you think you are making a movie?" , can you get word-of-mouth and praise just by relying on a little directorial skills and a star-studded cast? Idiot! How stupid! I will give you one last chance, the next movie... If you fail again this time, don't blame me for being rude!"
Although Shengshi Entertainment is a big player in the industry, occupying half of the country, but with the quiet rise of Jiaoyang Entertainment and Xinghua Entertainment, more and more directors and artists have set up their own businesses, grabbing more and more resources in the industry. Shengshi Entertainment It has long been just a beautiful scene on the surface, but who knows the suffering in private
Ying Tiandong's weak legs finally straightened a little, and he quietly wiped the cold sweat from his body. After walking away from the hell gate, he felt a little relieved.
At the end of the year, as a director, Tang Xiaoxiao finally won her first domestic Best Director Award - the Jinhua Award for the movie "Drawing Water".
Immediately afterwards, during the Chinese New Year, Tang Xiaoxiao once again won the Hong Kong Film Golden Shuttle Award for her film "Drawing Water"...
Compared with the difficulties on the road to winning the Jinhua Award, Hong Kong's Golden Shuttle Award was much smoother. Although Shengshi Entertainment is powerful, it is only limited to mainland China, and its influence in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan is weak. When Tang Xiaoxiao was developing in Taiwan, the popularity he had accumulated in Hong Kong finally played its unique role. Tang Xiaoxiao once again became a famous figure in major newspapers in Hong Kong, and the legendary love affair between her and Yu Lingye also became a hot topic in the streets and alleys.
In this or that award, Tang Xiaoxiao finally ushered in the 24th New Year in her life - she is 24 years old this year.
Counting the days, the three-year agreement with Mu Li finally came to an end in July this year... Tang Xiaoxiao could not get married or get engaged within three years, but she, Tang Xiaoxiao, did it despite the pressure.
I just don’t know where the young man who made the agreement with her is
