Chapter 91: That Year when I Was Eighteen, Jay Chou and I Stood Like a Fool

Equipment room.

Ren Xianqi and A Bei stared at Xu Chen. The studio lights were dim. Xu Chen's side face was angular. Ren Xianqi subconsciously touched his face and smiled freely: "A Bei, to be honest, who is more handsome, him or me?"

"A Bei" was originally named Ke Shangming. He was not the ace agent of "Rolling Stone", but he had been sitting on the bench with Ren Xianqi for 9 years. He was both a teacher and a friend.

Judging from his professional vision, Xu Chen's appearance and temperament were top-notch in the entertainment circle of Taiwan. He stared at Xu Chen as if facing a great enemy, and said in a deep voice: "According to the information, he is only 18 years old this year. Do you want to compete with an 18-year-old young man for handsomeness?"

"His creative talent is said by mainland newspapers..." A Bei sighed: "Not inferior to Li Zongsheng!"

Li Zongsheng is a legend among legends in the Chinese music scene. His status is comparable to Su Dongpo in the literary world. He can make songs out of laughter, anger and scolding. The fact that "Rolling Stone" can become a giant in the Chinese music scene is all due to the contributions of Li Zongsheng and Luo Dayou.

It is not ruled out that mainland newspapers will promote people, but if the gold content is 10%, Xu Chen will be the mainland version of "Limin".

"Indeed, my mature age is more advantageous~ Xu Chen is at a disadvantage."

Abei was speechless. Ren Xianqi was too unreliable. He was about to speak, and his arm was pulled by Ren Xianqi: "Abei, listen to the singing."

Xu Chen finished coaching Liu Ruoyin. Liu Ruoyin's nickname is "Milk Tea" and her voice is sweet, but after Xu Chen's observation, Liu Ruoyin is "Pearl Milk Tea."

After some "guidance", Liu Ruoyin's impression of Xu Chen changed greatly. Although she is illiterate...

she is not vulgar.

Liu Ruoyin studied in the United States, and her catchphrases in her speech will be a little English. Xu Chen can respond in time and occasionally speak a few words in English.

The singing style and skills of music are very skilled. She was born in an academic school and vaguely realized that Xu Chen's music knowledge framework is similar to her own, but the information says that Xu Chen has no educational background.

Once a woman has curiosity, it is the beginning of destruction.

Xu Chen is not stupid. He is used to Liu Ruoyin's rudeness and respect. His purpose is: "Recording you is a song in my heart."

How Liu Ruoyin sees him has nothing to do with him.

Both of them are not rookies in the music industry. They have been running-in several times. The last time, Liu Ruoyin tilted her head, stared at Xu Chen's face, and said in a sweet and gentle voice: "I really want to ask you, are you moved by me~"

"Being silent for too long~"

"It will only make me careless~"

"Make mistakes~"

…………

The recording is over.

Xu Chen glanced at the time and smiled and said: "Miss Liu, it's 2:00 pm now. I hope I didn't delay your magazine shoot."

"Haha~" Liu Ruoyin's face was red, sweating slightly, and she laughed softly: "I lied to you, I don't have a magazine shoot this afternoon. Hello Xu Chen, my name is Liu Ruoyin."

"I guessed it." Xu Chen gently touched Liu Ruoyin's fingertips: "Hello Liu Ruoyin, I'm Xu Chen."

"You are a song in my heart" post-production will be returned to Beiping.

"Rolling Stone" did not attach much importance to this cooperation. After all, the focus of "Rolling Stone" is on Ren Xianqi. It is impossible to invest a lot of resources in Xu Chen to create a competitor.

Just after walking out of the recording studio, Ren Xianqi laughed heartily: "Xu Chen, you just introduced yourself, and I haven't introduced myself yet."

Ren Xianqi stretched out his hand, and he listened to Xu Chen for as long as he sang.

Xu Chen's voice and singing are not bad, but Ren Xianqi's nickname is "Hero", which is really heroic. He said solemnly: "My name is Ren Xianqi."

Xu Chen touched his nose. He was just a middle school disease in the elevator just now. Ren Xianqi really came to the door. Xu Chen was a little socially dead and smiled: "Brother Xianqi, do you want to duel?"

Ren Xianqi is 31 years old, and Xu Chen doesn't feel awkward to call him Brother Xianqi.

Of course.

The main reason is that Ren Xianqi is very kind, loyal to friends, sincere to fans, and has few scandals and black materials. If the character is bad, Xu Chen usually ignores it.

"I've already lost in the handsomeness contest." Ren Xianqi shook his head at A Bei: "But we'll have to fight to our heart's content in the song contest."

Ren Xianqi's new album is scheduled to be released in December, and the album's main songs are "Look Over, Girl Across the Street" and "Sad Pacific Ocean."

Xu Chen's album will be released in October, and the album's main songs are: "The Rain Keeps Falling", "Descendants of the Dragon", "Blue Lotus", and "Thank You for Your Love 1997."

Don't look at the battle between the gods in the Chinese music scene, and the smoke is everywhere. Xu Chen privately believes that the victory or defeat lies between the two.

Or so to say.

The victory or defeat lies between "Sad Pacific Ocean" and "Twelve Golden Songs". Even if it is Xu Chen, he is not confident that he can win "Sad Pacific Ocean" with just one song.

Ren Xianqi is a righteous and straightforward person. He got to know Xu Chen. Seeing that Xu Chen is not a "sinister and evil" villain, he will do his best to treat Xu Chen to a meal.

It is hard to refuse such a kind invitation. Xu Chen has no friends in Taiwan, so he readily agreed.

Liu Ruoyin stood silently without saying anything. Seeing that the two had agreed, she smiled softly: "Brother Xianqi, Xu Chen, how about adding me?"

Xu Chen and Ren Xianqi looked at each other and smiled: "It's great to have a beautiful woman accompany you."

…………

August 9, 1997.

Xu Chen started the variety show "Guess Guess Guess Guess."

This variety show is similar to "Happy Camp", with a madman, a fool, a fool, and a smart person who controls the scene~

The show is about bullying fools, teasing fools, and making fun of fools. The rest are old-fashioned games and gossip.

Although the show is old-fashioned and the story is fragmented, the audience buys it. The ratings are the best among Taiwan's TV programs, and it can be called a celebrity check-in point in Taiwan's entertainment circle.

The recording time of the show is 5:00 pm.

Xu Chen got drunk with Ren Xianqi last night and slept until 10:00. He subconsciously touched his side and felt soft and smooth. Xu Chen was shocked. Did he have sex with Liu Ruoyin last night...

Afterwards, it was fortunate that it was the bed sheet, otherwise it would be a big loss~

After washing, he rented a car to collect rent. The princess likes to hoard houses. There are more than a dozen houses in Beijing alone, three luxury houses in Hong Kong, and fewer in Taiwan, only one apartment building.

Located in Xinyi District, Taipei City, the landlord Xu Chen finished the reconciliation with the trust company and counted the rent. Wow, there are 270,000 New Taiwan dollars, which is equivalent to 60,000 RMB. This is only the rent for August.

Long-legged cold and arrogant queen, rich lady, hungry...

…………

4:00 pm.

Xu Chen rushed to the recording site of "Guess Guess Guess".

The core of the program host team is Wu Zongxian, and there are also big and small C, Taozi sister.

The selling point of variety shows is "stars". As long as there are popular stars, the ratings will not be too bad.

The popular star of Xu Chen's show is none other than the Taipei pop diva Zhang Huimei, who became popular with "Watching the Sea".

Zhang Huimei's status is not high enough, so the flying guest was Chen Zhipeng, a member of the Little Tigers. Xu Chen was not interested in knowing the rest, who were all second- and third-tier stars in Taiwan.

Seriously.

If Xu Chen was not really unknown in Taiwan, he really didn't want to be on this show. What the hell are these monsters?

Let's not talk about Big and Small C, the mattress god of war, black material, scandals and gossips feed Taiwan newspapers, and his character and artistic ethics are terrible.

Chen Zhipeng was a member of the Little Tigers. The Little Tigers disbanded, and Alec Su and Nicky Wu both developed well. Chen Zhipeng was a bit desperate and became the "Little Cool Tiger" in the "Little Tigers."

Zhang Huimei had few scandals, but she was a little queen from Taiwan, and Xu Chen was a little king from the mainland. It was clear that he was just a background board in this program.

In the end...

Xu Chen admitted that he had to bow his head under someone else's eaves. A background board was better than no background. There were few promotion opportunities for "Unparalleled in the World", and any program where he could show his face could not be missed.

"Guess Guess Guess Guess" was a program of Huaxia Television Company.

After Xu Chen verified his identity information, the program director team took Xu Chen to the dressing room and gave him the script. They were very serious: "There is still one hour left in the program. You should familiarize yourself with your script as soon as possible. You don't need to change your clothes. You are wearing quite formal clothes."

After giving the order, the director team disappeared.

The makeup artist was busy. Xu Chen took a look. It was Xiao C who was putting on makeup. Da C was sitting on a chair playing a video game. In the corner sat an honest young man with long hair.

The young man was very introverted. He wore blue jeans, a ripped denim jacket, and his long hair was parted in the middle, revealing his head. It was a typical Guo Fucheng hairstyle.

Xu Chen walked in. Several people looked up. Da C glanced up and down. After all, Xu Chen was handsome. Da C said with interest: "Handsome guy, are you the guest of this episode? What's your name? I haven't seen you in Taiwan."

Xiao C hugged her knees tightly, her eyelashes fluttering, and said exaggeratedly: "Handsome guy, you are 2 meters tall, and you have such a good figure. Do you have a girlfriend~"

A crazy woman, a silly Wife, Xu Chen was not interested, so as not to cause trouble, and said calmly: "My name is Xu Chen, from the mainland."

Walking in front of the honest young man, Xu Chen said with interest: "Hello, classmate Xiao Zhou, my name is Xu Chen, I am 18 this year."

Zhou Jielun looked at Xiao C, his body bounced like an electric shock, and stretched out his hand inwardly: "Hello Xu Chen, my name is Zhou Jielun, I am also 18 years old this year."

Zhou Jielun had just participated in "Super Newcomer King" and sang his original song "Dream Has Wings" on the show.

The host Wu Zongxian saw that Zhou Jielun was quite talented and recruited Zhou Jielun to join Alpha as a music assistant.

Wu Zongxian often asked Zhou Jielun to serve tea and water, do odd jobs and buy meals when hosting the show.

So Xu Chen was not surprised to see Zhou Jielun backstage at "Guess Guess Guess Guess". He sat down next to Zhou Jielun, put his arm around the young man's shoulder, and smiled: "Classmate Xiao Zhou, I have a music company in the mainland. Do you want to go to the mainland with me to develop?"
