"Dear passengers, the destination of this flight is Taipei City, Taiwan."

"The restrooms are at the front and back of the plane. Please do not smoke in the restrooms..."

In the first-class cabin, Zhang Yuan and his companions enjoyed high-quality in-flight service.

Of course, this was all earned by using his good looks.

Fruit, champagne, cold food...

Excellent, but only in terms of in-flight service.

Everything has to be compared within a certain scope, just like Zhang Yuan. His excellence is compared with his peers.

"Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan..."

When the plane entered level flight, Liu Qianqian unbuckled her seat belt, turned around and called him quietly.

Zhang Yuan glanced at her. It had been a while since they last met. Her appearance and temperament hadn't changed. Unfortunately, some parts of her body that should have developed didn't seem to have changed either.

"Are you free recently?" Xixi put her hand to her mouth and asked in a low voice.

"When will you tell me a story again?"

The first-class cabin is so small that even if she speaks a low voice, people around her can still hear her.

Liu Xiaoli, Boss Cai, and Hu Ge, who went there together, all pricked up their ears and listened quietly.

Who hasn't been curious?

"I'm afraid not." Zhang Yuan crossed his arms and shook his head helplessly.

"Although I just finished filming a movie with Master Xing."

“But I signed another movie two days ago.”

"After this promotion is over and I return to the capital, the filming will start in a few days, so I probably won't have time to tell stories."

"Oh..." Liu Qianqian pouted a little depressed.

It is really uncomfortable to listen to a book halfway through. "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" stopped abruptly halfway through, which is more painful than not listening at all.

"By the way, have you received the audition notice for The Return of the Condor Heroes? It would be great if we could still act together." Liu Qianqian asked in a low voice.

As soon as she said this, her mother Liu Xiaoli, who was sitting next to her, poked her with her elbow.

"Uh." Xixi quickly covered her mouth.

The auditions for The Return of the Condor Heroes haven’t started yet.

The implicit meaning of Liu Xixi's words is that she has a chance to join the group.

There are many people talking on the plane, and if someone hears this, it is easy to misunderstand... and it is easier to expose the truth!

Of course, she had already been selected, and the 10% share of Hongxingwu was not given for nothing.

The reason why it cannot be leaked is because the bearded man still wants to display his traditional skills.

That is, walk the stars like dogs.

Now that people know that Xiao Long Nu has already been chosen, how can he still "play tricks" and create hype for himself?

"Not yet." Zhang Yuan said with a strange smile: "But I think I should receive it."

It’s just that this isn’t an audition invitation for the leading role… Zhang Yuan thought to himself but didn’t say it out loud.

Since the filming of "Demi-gods and Semi-Devils", Big Beard's tricks have been upgraded again after iterations of versions.

From the original low salary and high pressure, it has directly turned into paying to work.

Want to play the leading role?

Want to play the lead role in my play?

Of course you have to let me see your sincerity.

Liu Qianqian has boss Chen as her financial backer, so it goes without saying that she can get the leading female role.

The bearded man had no intention of “wasting” the leading male role.

Zhang Yuan knew very well that he would never get the role of Yang Guo by ordinary means, and he could not spend millions to pay tribute to the bearded man.

Moreover, given Big Beard's character, it is not impossible that he would take the money and not do the job.

So, this matter requires a different approach, it’s not that simple.

"Then I'll wait for you on the crew." Liu Qianqian gestured with her lips and then retracted her head.

As soon as she sat up straight, her mother Liu Xiaoli leaned over and whispered something in her ear.

"Zhang Yuan?" So she quietly stuck her head out again.

"Ok?"

"You said you signed a new movie. What movie is it?"

“A World Without Thieves by Feng Xiaogang.”

"Oh. Congratulations!" Xixi gave him a thumbs up.

Liu Xiaoli asked her to ask this question.

"Feng Xiaogang's movie..." Liu Xiaoli murmured.

She just felt that when her daughter mentioned The Return of the Condor Heroes, Zhang Yuan's calmness was a little abnormal.

"He got a role from Director Feng, who is from Huayi..."

Liu Xiaoli knew that the bearded man was now in contact with Huayi behind Ciwen Film and Television's back. The old guy was planning to eat all of them at once, and his eating manner was very ugly.

"Both Stephen Chow's previous film Kung Fu and this film A World Without Thieves were produced by Hua Yi."

"He has already established a relationship with Huayi in a short period of time."

"Did he do it on purpose, or was it an accident?"

Liu Xiaoli always felt that Zhang Yuan seemed to be planning to do something big.

In addition to him, Boss Cai standing next to him was also listening with his ears pricked up.

"I've accepted a role in Feng Xiaogang's play..." Cai Yinong looked up at Zhang Yuan.

She was not as well-informed as Liu Xiaoli about the connection between Big Beard and Hua Yi.

But I also know the relationship between Director Feng and Hua Yi.

"He plans to join Huayi!" Boss Cai felt nervous.

Compared with Huayi, Tangren is just a small dilapidated temple, and Cai Yinong is very clear about this.

"If he really signs with Huayi, there will be no possibility for him to cooperate with me anymore."

Boss Cai remained silent, calculating all the chips in his hand and wondering what conditions he would have to offer in order to make the other party become a member of his team.

The two women each had their own thoughts and were both thinking about things related to Zhang Yuan.

Not to mention the women, the only male who went with them also felt bad.

Hu Ge was just eating cold food and humming a song, in a very good mood.

Logically speaking, I was just a minor supporting role in the film and was not qualified to attend the press conference.

But the company not only let him come, but also covered all the expenses. Doesn't this mean that the boss has high hopes for me?
So pretty!

But after hearing that Zhang Yuan had signed with Director Feng's crew, Hu Ge felt terrible.

I was still gloating over being able to attend the crew's press conference, while others had hooked up with big directors...

In short, everyone along the way had their own ulterior motives, but Liu Qianqian was the only one who was truly happy for him.

After getting off the plane, I rushed to the Formosa CTS TV building located at No. 116, Lane 7, Guangfu South Road, Da'an District, Taipei City.

As an investor, the broadcasting platform that Wu Dun contacted was China Television.

As a "small place", Taiwan has more than 300 TV stations, which is like a porcelain basin dropped on the ground, shattered into pieces.

Of course, most of them are small TV stations with small audiences, and there are only about ten or so that are truly influential.

Among them, the three TV stations known as the old three stations have the longest history, including their current destination, China Television.

The status of CTS in Taiwan is almost equivalent to that of a provincial satellite TV station, and its influence is considerable.

After arriving at the TV station, several familiar figures that I hadn't seen for a long time appeared in front of me.

An Yixuan, Liu Pinyan and Peng Yuyan.

Naturally, the two girls immediately jumped to Liu Qianqian's side, and Peng Yuyan gave him a big hug.

But Zhang Yuan noticed that although this boy seemed enthusiastic towards him, he actually kept glancing towards Liu Xiaoli.

This is the old problem again.

"Mr. Zhang Yuan, what kind of emotions did you have when you played the character of Li Xiaoyao?"

"Ms. Liu Xixi, do you have any unforgettable moments during the filming of this drama?"

"Mr. Hugo, did you gain anything unexpected from the crew this time?"

The TV station's press conferences and interviews are all reviewed in advance, and all the main creators have already memorized the answers.

Although the Taiwan media loves to make trouble, Wu Dun was present today and these people did not dare to do anything rash.

The press conference ended in such a conventional way.

Of course, there are advantages to being conventional.

"Huh, it's finally done." After Liu Qianqian left the conference room used for the press conference, she fanned herself with her hands to cool her cheeks.

"There were so many questions to answer in those interviews, and I only had half an hour to memorize them all."

"It would be better to let me play freely."

Zhang Yuan glanced at her and said, This is what we are afraid of!

If you are allowed to express yourself freely, what should you do if you get distracted?
Once Liu Qianqian is interviewed in front of the camera and has not prepared in advance, her answers are really like a landslide in the interview world.

Zhang Yuan thought that the only thing that could compare to her was probably the court ceremony in Macau.

The heir Chao Qiong opened his hotel, and the children from the second and fourth wives gathered together.

The reporter asked Chaoyi when was the last time everyone in his family had such neat hair.

Chaoyi: funeral home.

Yes, it was the funeral parlor where the master of the family was buried...

I will answer you if you dare to ask me. There is a kind of beauty that does not care about other people's life or death.

Chaoyi is known as the most favored child, and Liu Qianqian has also been well taken care of by her mother since she was a child. Perhaps only those who are favored enough and received sufficient care at home can express their feelings so confidently.

"Come on, let's go eat, drink and have fun together!"

This is Liu Qianqian's second visit to Taiwan. The first time was during the filming of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", when she took a leave to film "Love in May".

"Okay, I'll take you out to play." As the "landlord" and the real landlord of his family, An Yixuan immediately took charge of arranging the fun.

"Don't worry, we still have work to do today." Boss Cai interrupted. "More?"

"Well, I have to go to another TV station to do a talk show." Boss Cai pointed at Zhang Yuan and said through gritted teeth, "Yes, Zhang Yuan arranged it."

Why is she gritting her teeth?

Because she remembered how badly Zhang Yuan treated her when she came to Taiwan before, and she almost thought she could never go back.

The interview program they are about to participate in is the famous "Kangxi Comes Here" in later generations.

In order to arrange this event, Zhang Yuan approached another big boss besides Wu Dun, Yang Dengkui.

Wu Dun and Yang Dengkui were the main forces behind the "parody" of Cai Yinong at that time.

Boss Cai was so angry that I feel suffocated every time I think about it now.

"Just a moment, get ready." Zhang Yuan came to Hu Ge's side.

"what?"

"For the next show, you'll be asked to sing the theme song and show your face more."

Hu Ge opened his mouth. Just now during the press conference, he saw Zhang Yuan sitting in the middle, being attended to by a large number of reporters in front of and behind the scenes. He felt a little jealous.

Now people have specially arranged an opportunity for me to perform... I feel embarrassed.

[Received thanks from Hugo, performance basics +1! ]

……

The program team of "Kangxi Comes Here" belongs to China Television.

It’s the TV station where the Xu sisters made their debut.

At first, the two sisters hosted a program called "Big and Small Love to Eat". Later, Xu Xiyuan focused on film and television, so he arranged for her sister Xu Xidi to partner with Cai Kangyong to start a new program.

"Welcome, everyone."

"Welcome to the crew of The Legend of Sword and Fairy."

Of course, greetings are indispensable.

Before coming, Zhang Yuan gave Liu Xixi special instructions, asking her to be more careful with her words and not to speak nonsense.

But it is difficult to change one's nature, and besides, she is still young and lacks experience in the world.

"Ms. Liu Xixi, you look so beautiful in the film, do you have any secret?"

“That’s all makeup.”

"Your hair is so shiny."

"That's a wig."

"You have beautiful eyes. Boys should like them especially."

"I don't care what they like."

Xu Xidi: ...

Liu Qianqian can't do it directly to the host.

Xu Xidi had no choice but to turn to Zhang Yuan.

After all, she and Zhang Yuan have Xu Xiyuan as a bond, so their relationship is closer.

"Zhang Yuan, my sister has been saying privately that you are so handsome on the set, and she can't wait to pursue you."

Swish!
Zhang Yuan suddenly felt several piercing gazes coming from all around him.

Liu Qianqian, Liu Pinyan, An Yixuan... No, it's okay for the two of them, but why do you always appear when Miss An joins in the fun?

The eyes of the two Miss Liu were quite sharp, like two knives stabbing into his lower back, causing him to straighten his back.

An Yixuan had the look of watching a show, as if he was watching a funeral without any fear of the seriousness of the illness.

"Then she definitely can't catch up." Zhang Yuan quickly replied: "Because I run fast."

Hahaha……

A topic of this level would definitely not be difficult for him, he would just laugh it off.

He heaved a sigh of relief when he felt the two knife-like gazes on his waist slowly loosen.

The Xu sisters are not easy to deal with.

I just had a bad meal at Xixi's place, and I have to get it back no matter what.

"Ms. Liu Qianqian, you usually get to meet so many male actors on the set. Do you have an ideal partner?"

When Xixi heard this question, she was stunned at first, and then looked at her mother sitting in the audience.

Then her cheeks gradually turned red and she glanced in Zhang Yuan's direction imperceptibly.

"Don't ask such questions..." Liu Qianqian waved her hand coquettishly.

when!
If the two girls' eyes were as sharp as knives, then Zhang Yuan now felt as if a gun was pressed against his throat.

The source of this gaze was naturally Liu Xiaoli in the audience.

But soon, the sharp gaze was retracted.

Aunt Liu is still quite decent, but we shouldn’t be too extreme on the show.

And she was also thinking...

"The only drama that Xixi will film next is The Return of the Condor Heroes."

"Even if he has all kinds of abilities, given Zhang Jizhong's stubborn personality, the chances of him getting the leading role are almost zero."

"It's just a supporting role at best."

"Huh, in this way, even if we meet on the set of The Condor Heroes later, we probably won't have much contact."

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoli felt a lot more relieved.

She was really afraid that her daughter would be kidnapped by Zhang Yuan one day if she wasn't paying attention...

After the show finally ended, Zhang Yuan walked out tiredly.

"Can we go play now?" Liu Qianqian asked with a pout, "There are no more interviews today, right?"

"No more, go play first."

"You're not going?"

"I still have to serve two big guys from Taiwan." Zhang Yuan said helplessly.

Just like when you go to Hong Kong, you have to pay a visit to Sammo Hung. When you come to Taiwan, Wu Dun and Yang Dengkui must have a good drink together.

Except for Liu Qianqian who looked a little disappointed, everyone else looked at Zhang Yuan with envy.

He left the mainland and went to Taiwan, where he still had such deep connections.

He is indeed not an ordinary person.

Boss Cai actually also went to the boss's dinner party, but Zhang Yuan did not invite her, so she knew what was going on.

It's not that they don't want me to attend, but that they have something else that makes it inappropriate for me to be there.

She was tactful enough not to mention it.

Zhang Yuan didn't bring her along because he didn't want to easily share his connections in Taiwan, which was one of his bargaining chips to balance against Boss Cai.

As for not bringing a few young girls along... the dinner parties of those two big guys are bound to include topics that are R-rated and hostesses, so young girls are not suitable to participate.

I waved goodbye to everyone and headed to a big hotel as they watched me leave.

"Mr. Wu, I toast to you."

"Mr. Yang, thanks for your help this time."

A drinking party is nothing without wine.

Zhang Yuan used his great drinking capacity to frequently confront these two "alcohol test" bosses.

"Zhang Yuan, you are great. You still think of us when you have a project." Wu Dun picked up the glass and drank a glass of Baodao Kaoliang.

"But this time, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" encountered the mainland's "travel ban order", I'm afraid my investment will be lost."

Having said that, Wu Dun looked at him sharply.

But he found that Zhang Yuan was not afraid at all and still smiled calmly.

Good concentration!
Many young people, not to mention young people, even middle-aged bosses, would be scared to death and kneel down to beg for mercy after being frightened by a few words from him.

After all, everyone in Taiwan knows how he made his fortune.

But the mainland guy in front of him was not afraid at all, which made him admire him a little.

"Mr. Wu, it hasn't aired yet, so nothing is known yet."

"Besides, the broadcast rights are not selling well, but there is still the DVD market to make a profit. I used to..."

He recounted in detail how the film "Conquest" made millions just from selling discs.

"Can there really be so many?"

"I can send you the detailed report after I get back."

"Hahaha, okay, I believe you!" Wu Dun, nicknamed Ghost-Seeing, laughed and clinked glasses with him. They each drank a full glass of Baodao Kaoliang Liquor.

Spicy, pungent, stimulating.

"Mr. Yang, thank you for your care during the filming of A Chinese Ghost Story." Zhang Yuan raised his glass again and looked at Lao Dengtou.

"Hey, don't say that. That movie sold very well. You helped me make money, so of course I'll take care of you."

Yang Dengkui speaks very directly.

"Thank you, Mr. Yang. Come to think of it, I actually have something I would like you to help me with." Zhang Yuan immediately responded.

"Speak!" Lao Dengtou waved his hand generously.

There is no need to talk about his strength. When Jet Li terminated his contract with Golden Harvest and was being hunted, it was he and the Xiang brothers who protected Li in Hong Kong and Taiwan, which led to the subsequent "Fong Sai-yuk" and "Once Upon a Time in China" series, which made Jet Li soar to fame.

"It's not a big deal. I just like Hong Kong movies and TV shows since I was a kid, especially those directed by Wong Jing."

"So I thought if there is a chance, you could introduce me to him."

When Lao Dengtou heard this, he suddenly sat up straight.

"You want to act in 'Number One Under Heaven'?"

This is a new film that Lao Dengtou just invested in and asked Wang Jing to shoot.

"No, I heard that Director Wang Jing seems to have other works to shoot this year."

"There's an ancient dragon drama in it."

"It's called "Little Fish and Flowerless"!" (End of this chapter)
