From Middle Age: Leisure Life in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 40 Talent Scout

There were cheers and applause in the tavern, and Yu Dongqing was secretly wondering while accompanying her.

Although my sister-in-law is not as good at drama and dancing as her mother, she is better because of her long legs and full of youthful vigor.

The singing voice is very sweet. Although her singing skills are not comparable to those of professionally trained singers like Zhao Yawen, she has a bit of the flavor of Teresa Teng from the original time and space.

In the end, Mingmei ended up with cheers.

She originally thought that the matter was over, but suddenly a middle-aged man walked up to her with a gentle look: "I am Chen Jiawei, the agent of Xiangjiang Jiaying Film and Television Company. Miss, I think you are good at both image and temperament.

All of them have the potential to become stars. Are you willing to join our company? Enter the music world, or even the film and television industry."

After saying that, he took out a business card from his pocket.

Scout?!

In this time and space, due to the poor performance of Chinese entertainment in the Mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan's entertainment has not declined as much as in the previous time and space, and still has certain advantages. Therefore, being able to become a star in Hong Kong is quite attractive to mainland girls.

I just didn’t expect to meet a talent scout from Xiangjiang here!

And it’s Jiaying Company, one of the two famous film and television companies in Hong Kong.

Many girls in the bar looked at Mingliang with envy. She was the lucky one today.

Unexpectedly, Mingliang smiled reservedly and didn't even take the business card: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested in singing and acting."

"Tomorrow. Let's continue tomorrow." Zhang Yang greeted with a smile: "Meiliang, you come too."

"Meili, you have a good voice and image. Just like what Chen Jiawei said, do you want to enter the film and television industry and become an actor?"

With your image, temperament, and script skills, it would be a shame not to be an actor.

Maybe I'll make a few movies on a whim that day and let you be the heroine.

He parked his car and walked into Shili Peach Blossom Bar, only to see Liu Yimin alone.

Dad should fulfill his responsibilities, then go home, change clothes and drive to Sanlitun.

"His mother-in-law called to say that something had happened to my father-in-law and asked the couple to go back quickly."

Chen Jiawei was not good enough to refuse Mingliang so simply. Just when he was about to persuade him a few more words, Zhang Yang came over.

Of course, Yu Dongqing would not say this now.

Yu Dongqing sighed slightly in her heart.

After sending Mingliang to the entrance of Yanzi Hutong in Houhai, Yu Dongqing turned around and took her sleeping daughter back to Hujialou. After lunch the next day, she took her daughter to the Dongdan Indoor Swimming Pool for swimming. In the afternoon, the father and daughter were at the nearby swimming pool.

We also had a McDonald's meal at a fast food restaurant, and then sent my daughter to her grandmother's house at around six o'clock in the evening.

Yu Dongqing was surprised: "Didn't these two guys agree? We have to let go of big things. What's going on?"

"This matter is important, so how can we win if we don't bother him?" Yu Dongqing asked.

So, I originally planned to only sing for two nights, but finally decided to add one more night, and also sing on Sunday night.

"Oh, your father-in-law's family is really nice to you. It's not easy to have an old man to take care of your children now," Liu Yimin said.

Yu Dongqing and his Qingmanglu Band performed in a bar for the first time and became a hit. The next night, the entire Shili Peach Blossom Bar was packed with seats. Many young men and women who claimed to be literary youths and loved folk songs came to the bar early to occupy seats.

Today is Sunday. After eating, Yu Dongqing changed her clothes and sent her daughter to her grandmother's house. Then she drove to Sanlitun.

There are folk songs and stories, how can there be no wine?

Yu Dongqing didn't know what to say.

Alas, the sorrow of those born in the 1980s.

"His father-in-law is sick?" Yu Dongqing was startled and quickly took out her mobile phone to call, and the call was quickly answered.

He spoke out of emotion.

"Du Hui has hired a lawyer and is preparing to file a lawsuit with his ex-wife to get the custody of their children back. We have made an appointment with a lawyer tonight to discuss the matter," Liu Yimin said.

"I won't be coming tomorrow night. I have an appointment with my classmates to watch a movie." Meili smiled.

Chinese drama?!

This is one of the top universities in mainland China for cultivating outstanding actors.

The song "Mei Meili" was regarded as the warm-up. After a while, Yu Dongqing and others continued to play. The atmosphere in the pub was lively throughout the night, and it did not end until 11 o'clock.

Wei Fang works in a company and is usually very busy. It is up to him to take her daughter to school.

"I don't, brother-in-law, I told you that my ideal is to be a great director like Steven Spielberg!" After saying this, he looked proud.

However, Chen Jiawei still refused to give up. In the end, he forced his business card to Meili, saying that if he had any ideas, he could call him directly.

"It's okay. The old man is in critical condition. You should take good care of him. If you need help with anything, just ask."

"It's not too serious. We sent it to the hospital. The doctor checked and said that the blood pressure was a bit high and the heartbeat was irregular. He asked us to stay in the hospital tonight and observe Dongqing first. I won't be able to come over tonight. I just told Yimin

,Excuse me."

"Zhang Yang, what's wrong with your father-in-law? Is his condition serious? Do you need our help?"

There is a saying that "China Opera produces actors, and Nortel produces stars." We see the extraordinary ability of Chinese Opera students.

Fortunately, his time to run the tavern is flexible, and it is quite hard work rain or shine all year round.

"Where's Zhang Yang? What's wrong with him?" Yu Dongqing asked again.

Most of them are only children, and one couple has to take care of four elderly people.

Although Liu Yimin and his wife Wei Fang are both from Yanjing, his parents died early, and his wife's parents live in rural Shunyi. They have a lot of work to do at home and cannot help them take care of their children.

"It's quite difficult." Liu Yimin shook his head: "After all, in the divorce agreement, it was written in black and white that the child would be raised by her ex-wife."

When he saw Yu Dongqing, he said, "Dongqing, we can't sing tonight. Du Hui and Zhang Yang just called and said they were busy."

"Okay, I know, bye."

"Why"

Of course, what followed was that all the drinks in the bar were sold out.

Be a director?

I still think it would be better for you to be an actor.

Everyone went home. Yu Dongqing drove Meiliang back to Houhai's home first. As he drove on the street, he glanced at Meimei sitting in the back seat with his sleeping daughter in his rearview mirror, and suddenly asked.

"Sir, you have misjudged the wrong person! He is a top student in Chinese opera. How can he come to Jiaying and become an artist?!"

"I'm fine. Tongtong has been sent to her grandmother's house."

He couldn't help with this matter.

Seeing Yu Dongqing hang up the phone, Liu Yimin said again: "You also have a rest tonight, have a couple of drinks and then go back to take care of your precious daughter."

While the two were chatting, someone in the bar asked if there would be any performances tonight?

Yu Dongqing looked around. There were obviously more people than usual tonight, and there were many familiar faces. It seemed that they were singing to them. So before Liu Yimin could answer, he smiled and said: "Yes, yes,

Hold on."

"What, you still want to sing?" Liu Yimin asked in a low voice.

"Since we agreed to perform tonight, we can't go back on it. Let's do this: I'll sing and you'll play the drums!"

"The two of us?" Liu Yimin was surprised.
