China Entertainment 1997

Throughout April and May, in addition to dealing with the matter of joining Lao Mouzi, Cao Xuan took care of the important matters of several companies in his hands one by one.

The rest of the time is spent either at home taking care of the children, or going to the racecourse to ride horses, go fishing in Miyun Reservoir, and recently formed a football team and invited people to play games.

I don’t know if he is too idle. When Cao Xuan was young, he didn’t play much football. Now that he is older, he is not just willing to watch in front of the TV. He always wants to go to the stadium to do some activities.

In fact, Cao Xuan has participated in the Chinese Star Football Team before, but this team is complicated internally and mainly promotes charity, which is relatively formal.

The team he has now is just for fun and fun, and there is no limit on the number of people. Anyone who has time can come over, play a good game and sweat it out, and then everyone will have a dinner after the game... Well, let's summarize the game.

Even the name of the team is "You Are Right Team", which shows that it is purely for fun.

If it weren't for the fear of exposing his browsing history, Cao Xuan would have planned to name his home security team...

The entire team is basically composed of Cao Xuan's friends and colleagues from the company. There are also a few outsiders, but they are all good players and can't really be played.

There are also several artists among them, such as Wu Jing, who is the team's main defender, and Yu Quan, who is also a member of the team.

Within Fanxing Artists, Zhang Zijian, Hu Ge, and Wei Chen are also members of the team, but there are relatively few of them, and they are basically substitutes.

The team was established last year and has played 14 games so far, with 2 wins, 8 draws and 4 losses.

How to describe this result? Humanity is more important, and the opponent is not too embarrassed to be cruel. After all, many people want to ask for autographs and photos after the game.

You play 7:0 or 8:0, no matter how good-tempered Cao Xuan is, it will be difficult for him to laugh.

At the end of May, Cao Xuan happened to have two days to spare, so he contacted the available members of the team and planned to find a college student team to compete with.

However, it happened that the number of players in the team was a little short. They played in a big field with 11 people, and many people couldn't hold on, so the substitutions were fierce. At most, there were more than 20 people on the field.

Therefore, usually a captain would say that there would be a buffer space for fifteen or six people, but if it really doesn't work, the players should rest until they are ready.

Hearing that there were not enough people, Cao Xuan wanted to chat with a few friends privately. At this time, a team member volunteered to recruit people in the WeChat group.

Cao Xuan took a look and saw that the other party was a host of a variety show on the Penguin Star website.

Penguin Star's headquarters is in Shenzhen City, but since a large amount of its work is located in Beijing, it established a branch in Beijing, and the branch is responsible for the output of many contents.

This host is called Quan Kang, and he is the host of an entertainment news talk show on Penguin Star.

This kind of program is modeled after foreign talk shows. The big friend of Sohu's "Diaosi Men" started his career with this kind of program. Related video websites now have similar programs.

Cao Xuan has watched Quan Kang's show, and his hosting ability is quite satisfactory, but the scale of his complaints is relatively large.

The reputation is also polarized. Those who like it really like it, while those who don't like it can't accept it. They think many of his words are too excessive, so he is nicknamed Xiao Zhou Libo.

However, what impressed Cao Xuan most about him was his good goalkeeping skills. He was known as [Chaoyang Saint Cassie], and he basically took turns as the team's goalkeeper with another [Shichahai Buffon].

After Quan Kang introduced him, Cao Xuan didn't stop him. Again, his team is purely for entertainment, and there is no limit on the number of players. Anyone can join if someone introduces him. The number of people in the WeChat group alone is now almost over 60.

After an appointment was made, everyone gathered, and Quan Kang also brought the new team members he had invited.

There were about ten people in total, and Cao Xuan knew almost all of them at first glance, people who loved laughing brothers and happy twists.

The brothers who love laughter are the big health care Qiao Shan, the big beard Xiu Rui, Cui Zhijia and Cao Ranran.

There are more people in Happy Twist, led by Shen Teng, and Allen, Wei Xiang, Chang Yuan, Wang Ning, and Tao Liang are all there.

Most people know the first few. Tao Liang is the psycho who sells mobile devices in "The Richest Man in Xihong City". He can also be regarded as a meritorious actor in Happy Twist, but his reputation is not obvious.

The two teams began launching comedy variety shows and online dramas on the Penguin Star website last year.

Among them, the "Love Laughter Conference Room" by the Laughter Brothers has quite good statistics. It was even ranked among the top three in the field of online variety shows and is quite influential among young people and netizens.

The variety show of Happy Twist has not made much progress, but the web drama of the same name "Happy Twist", with the unlucky guy "Hao Jian" as the main plot, and the friends, colleagues, and enemies of the Twist actor, it is a unit-style semi-situation comedy. popular.

Quan Kang is the host contracted by Penguin Star. We usually do shows together and play with each other. We have a good relationship on a daily basis. This time we happened to be together, so we invited everyone to come over.

It's not a bad thing to play football with Cao Xuan. Didn't you know that the father of a certain actor named Zeng rose to the top by playing good football?

Although Cao Xuan is not that outrageous, and he treats football as entertainment, but if he really plays well, he can also establish a good personal relationship with him, which will be of many benefits to them.

After all, it’s always good to show off in front of the boss, and no matter what, it’s not bad to have a meal with him...

Quan Kang was about to introduce him to Cao Xuan, but Cao Xuan raised his hand to stop him: "I know them."

After that, he looked at everyone with a smile: "I will watch "The Laughter Conference Room" when I have time. I also went to see the live performance of Happy Twist's New Year's drama "The Count of Wulong Mountain". The performance was really good. I loved the lines." I remember, I’ll stab you in the eye..."

"Oh, I'm so flattered. We want to know that you're coming to see us. How dare we charge ticket money?"

Shen Teng and others had bright smiles on their faces. They really didn't expect that big names like Cao Xuan knew about them and had seen their works. They received many praises and their vanity was greatly satisfied. They wanted to post on Weibo right away. Or the circle of friends is cool.

Cao Xuan didn't reveal to them that he was a shareholder of Happy Mahua. Maybe a few of these people knew about it.

Anyway, he changed his jersey and protective gear, and chatted with Shen Teng and others about "The Count of Wulong Mountain".

Cao Xuan is very picky when it comes to watching dramas. He basically only watches dramas about people and art. There are not many dramas in Mandarin that attract him, but Happy Twist did it.

Happy Twist is very good in the field of drama, but because the subsequent film results are so excellent, people ignore the achievements of the drama.

Just like Deyun Club took root in small theaters and Lao Zhao opened Liu Laogen's big stage, Happy Twist's initial base was also based on drama.

Happy Twist is so popular in the capital right now. It is said that among people in Beijing who pay attention to fashion and entertainment, one out of every two people knows about Happy Twist.

This is an exaggeration, but Happy Twist's influence in drama is indeed unparalleled.

During the Lunar New Year in 2009, only two stage plays grossed over 10 million at the box office. This year's new release "The Count of Wulongshan" was even more sold-out. In terms of ticket sales alone, the combined total of entertainment and Mandarin dramas could not outsell them. .

It can be said that it was a credit to Cao Xuan that he started early, otherwise the outside world would have noticed them.

Cao Xuan particularly likes the play "The Count of Wulong Mountain". He personally thinks that the drama has more laughs than "Charlotte".

Unfortunately, the scale of this drama is relatively large. Corruption and police are not bad, but it mainly involves sensitive themes. This cannot be openly promoted in domestic film and television.

Even if it was Danmei, it was all about the so-called "socialist brotherhood", but the whole theme was cut off.

Therefore, if "The Count of Wulong Mountain" is to be made into a movie, it may require a lot of changes.

On the other hand, the life of this drama is quite strong, and Happy Mahua will be reluctant to change it for a while, because once it is changed into a movie, the appeal of the drama version will decline.

For example, "Charlotte's Troubles" and "Li Cha's Aunt", after the movie version came out, the dramas were performed less and less.

Only "The Donkey Gets Water", a literary-oriented drama-turned-movie, suffered less from the impact.

Because of this kind of drama, what the audience sees is the dramatic tension and explosion of the actors' performances. Even after watching the movie, they can still feel the surprise.

But comedy is different. After all the baggage in the movie is shaken off, it becomes exponentially more difficult to make people laugh.

"Happy Twist" only contains these "store-building treasures". You definitely can't give them all away at once, and you have to keep two for the bottom.

Therefore, they would rather get the copyright to adapt "The Richest Man in Xihong City" and copy the Korean comic "Walking on the Moon" instead of easily starting with "The Count of Wulong Mountain". To a certain extent, this is their trump card.

However, "The Count of Wulong Mountain" cannot be filmed, and "Charlotte Trouble" will definitely be no problem.

Cao Xuan had forgotten about Happy Twist before, but only after seeing them today did he remember whether "Charlotte Troubles" could be released in advance.

If Fanxing's brand name and theater bonus were added, he thought this dark horse might be even darker...

Cao Xuan didn't think too much and concentrated on playing football, occupying the forward position without hesitation.

Their team actually doesn't have any tactics.

I can't do anything about passing, controlling or passing, and I'm not good at positional warfare. I don't have any good coordination. It's just because there are a few good wingers in the team, so I basically dribble the ball from the wing, then cross the ball, and the forward grabs the point. , just let it in.

However, we encountered a tough situation today. This team, headed by Jinghang University students, had no sense of worldliness at all and kicked them with all their might.

In less than half an hour, four players went straight in. Cao Xuan was in the frontcourt and could hardly even touch the ball. The experience was extremely poor.

In the second half, Shen Teng and others came on the bench. It was obvious that they were basically rookies and could not match their explosive counterattack.

In the end, [You said everything against the team] lost, and they lost with an unprecedented score of 0:9.

Fortunately, they held the bottom line and didn't let anyone score close to double digits.

"Teacher Cao, can we take a photo together?"

Cao Xuan looked at the innocent expressions on the faces of those college students, squeezed out a smile, took a photo with them, and then told the team members that he would not play with this team to death next time.

You don’t have to be sociable, but there’s no need to kill them all like this.

Under normal circumstances, Cao Xuan would organize a dinner party after the game, and he would usually invite his opponent to attend.

But Boss Cao, who broke through the defense today, ignored his opponent and in the end only brought his own team members for dinner.

Shen Teng and others were feeling dizzy. Quan Kang said there was a football match today and asked them to help stand on the field. On the way, they found out that they were playing with Cao Xuan.

Now that they had suffered a huge defeat, they all thought that Cao Xuan would get angry, but they didn't expect that Cao Xuan didn't take it seriously and even treated him to dinner.

Tsk tsk, having dinner with Cao Xuan will make you proud in the future...

What they didn't expect was that Cao Xuan came over to offer a toast during the meal.

Although Cao Xuan was holding a drink, it was enough to flatter everyone. Shen Teng stood up and almost brought the chair down.

"You are too polite, we should respect you,"

"It's not that particular. Everyone worked hard today. We will come out and play together when we have time."

Cao Xuan originally wanted to say a few words of encouragement about work, but then he thought it was his off-duty time and said it was annoying, so he simply passed it by.

After Cao Xuan left, Brothers Aixiao and Kaixinmahua secretly exploded.

"Brother, I really want to take a picture of that scene just now. My body will be so hard when I go home during the Chinese New Year."

"Are all big bosses so approachable?"

"It's a pity that my cross was blocked by the defender. If I assisted Teacher Cao to score a goal, he would not be able to respect me alone."

"..."

It's no wonder they were excited. Putting aside Cao Xuan's fame and status in the entertainment industry, Cao Xuan's net worth alone gave them a great sense of satisfaction.

In February this year, the American "Fortune" magazine featured Cao Xuan, providing an in-depth analysis of the Chinese superstar's net worth.

You must know that those who always pay attention to the rich list are "Forbes" and "Hurun News".

Cao Xuan had already communicated with these two companies, and due to the complexity of his equity, the two companies were not sure about it, so they never let him enter the list.

"Fortune" actually makes a list of the world's top 500 companies. I don't know why it took a fancy to Cao Xuan's popularity this time, so it just conducted a comprehensive investigation on Cao Xuan.

As a top financial media, "Fortune" is quite sophisticated in its methods. It has done a lot of punctures on many of Cao Xuan's companies and also learned about some of Cao Xuan's secret stock investments.

In the end, they estimated that Cao Xuan's total net worth has exceeded US$30 billion to US$35 billion.

The market value of the Penguin shares he holds alone exceeds US$15 billion, and the valuation of the shares of Box Games and Fanxing Group also exceeds US$10 billion each.

Since the control of the remaining assets of all parties is not clear, and many of them are investments with large fluctuations, they are only given a range, but "Fortune" believes that this part of the assets will definitely exceed US$5 billion.

And if this data is true,

Cao Xuan will surpass Li Huagua, who is only 25 to 26 billion US dollars announced by Forbes, and become the real richest man in Asia, and ranked eighth in the world.

Although Cao Xuan expressed in an interview that the data of "Fortune" were "purely false," some outsiders did not believe it.

But after all, Fortune is the world's most authoritative financial media organization, and its gold content is still very high.

Therefore, there are also a group of people who choose to believe it, or are doubtful about it, thinking that even if "Fortune" is inaccurate, it is not too different.

We don’t have 30 billion U.S. dollars, we can’t say 20 billion U.S. dollars, and at the worst we have to have 10 billion U.S. dollars.

You know, Baidu Li is the richest man in mainland China with a net worth of US$9.4 billion. In other words, Cao Xuan's bottom line is not inferior to Baidu Li.

This statement is endorsed by big shots. Jack Ma from Hangzhou said in his speech that the richest Chinese he has ever seen is a handsome guy in his thirties.

Many people associate this sentence with Cao Xuan, after all, his age and appearance match.

Happy Mahua and others are not sure how rich Cao Xuan is, but no matter where he is, he is a rich man.

It's like you and Jack Ma are having dinner together, and they toast you with a glass of wine, ignoring everyone else.

It's no exaggeration to say that if there were women among them, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to stick them directly...

Cao Xuan didn't know that his casual move would shock Kaixin Mahua and others so much.

After walking around, he placed his target on the TV in the box.

Entertainment news is being broadcast above, Yao Dazui and her husband are divorcing.

After talking about it, Cao Xuan was confused. How could Yao Dazui still make headlines when he was acting like this?

You know, although Cao Xuan didn't deliberately target him, this man's fate was even worse than that of Chen Kun.

The debut masterpiece "Wulin Gaiden" belongs to Damimi.

The masterpiece "Latent" that rushed to the front line made Yin Zhao successful.

Even the famous [Queen of Weibo] was overtaken by Fan Xiaopang.

Fan Xiaopang now has 50.12 million Weibo fans, more than any other Weibo. Even Cao Xuan only has a little over 30 million fans.

It seems that Yao Dazui's number of fans has not exceeded one million, not to mention the queen, the female bodyguard captain can't even get it.

It can be said that every key node of Yao Dazui's career has been preempted, causing him to keep spinning in circles and struggling to develop.

At this time in the original time and space, Mr. Zhou and Fan Xiaopang of Huayi left one after another, Li Bingbing moved to Hollywood, and Yao Dazui became a strong competitor for the first sister of Huayi, and even won the big production "Nine-Storey Demon Tower".

But now, although Yao Dazui has also joined Huayi, she is just a little transparent. There are at least five or six actresses ahead of her.

He has been in the industry for many years, and his current works are mostly sitcoms, and most of them are supporting roles. Strictly speaking, he can barely even make it into the third tier.

But because he was backed by a large company and had several good characters who gained widespread popularity and support from the public, Yao Dazui gained public support and pushed her husband into the abyss. It took several years for him to slowly turn around.

But now Huayi doesn't pay much attention to her, and Yao Dazui doesn't have much national character. The couple is half-weighted and half-weighted, and the audience will not take sides easily and take it easy.

Now she can no longer hide her true feelings.

Cao Xuan expressed his joy and joy for this result.

The flower of kindness finally bloomed, and the evil man had his own retribution. If he wasn't afraid of getting his hands dirty, he would have wanted to add insult to injury.

That's all, just be dirty if you're dirty, the key is just to be happy...
