This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

  Chapter 378 376. This character is the best in the world! A clash of cultures.

  Qin Yuhai originally planned to avoid meeting Wang Cheng, waited for a while, and suppressed Wang Cheng, and went to discuss the renewal of the contract with Wang Cheng in person when he was not in such a limelight now...

   It's just that he doesn't know when Shen Shenghui will be able to suppress Wang Cheng's popularity by serious means!

   This time, Beijing Satellite TV got 5.9 ratings by relying on Wang Cheng, which made the entire TV industry go crazy...

but!

   Qin Yuhai brought people here this time, but it wasn't because of the ratings.

   Instead, many invitations from the Beijing circle.

  A high-end commercial vehicle slowly stopped at the door of Wang Cheng's dormitory, and then Qin Yuhai got out of the car first, followed by three figures, an old man and two middle-aged and elderly people, both of whom were not young.

  However, the three of them were all tall and straight, and they didn't feel old-fashioned. Instead, they were full of energy, their steps were steady, and they all exuded a scholarly atmosphere.

  Shen Shenghui hastily greeted him: "Boss Qin..."

  Qin Yuhai nodded and said, "Wang Cheng is in the dormitory?"

  Shen Shenghui looked at the three of them curiously, and after thinking about it carefully, he had no impression of the three of them, so they must not be from the circle. If it was in the entertainment industry, it was worth asking Qin Yuhai to accompany him to find Wang Cheng. He was definitely a bigwig in the industry, and Shen Shenghui couldn't be impressed.

  So, the only possibility is that none of them are from the entertainment industry!

   "Well, Wang Cheng hasn't gone out yet! However, it's getting faster now, he should come out for dinner soon."

  Shen Shenghui already knows Wang Cheng's schedule and living habits like the back of his hand, and there is no need for his assistant to report to him every day.

  Because, almost every day he reports the same information, he will memorize it.

  The old man smiled and said: "I have heard that Wang Cheng's life is punctual and simple..."

   The other two smiled, just about to talk!

  A figure came out from the door of the dormitory, wearing simple casual clothes, sports pants, and a white T-shirt. The whole person exudes such an extremely comfortable and simple atmosphere, and his appearance is even more eye-catching!

   Even the three of them, who have cultivated themselves for many years, couldn't help admiring Wang Cheng when they saw Wang Cheng's temperament and appearance—God loves him so much.

  Shen Shenghui immediately laughed and said, "Wang Cheng has come out!"

  Qin Yuhai's eyes lit up slightly, and he hurriedly stepped forward to reach out to Wang Cheng and said, "Wang Cheng, excuse me! Three old friends want to chat with you."

Wang Cheng stretched out his hand and touched Qin Yuhai's hand lightly, and they split instantly. Then they glanced at the three strangers, and the three of them immediately nodded and smiled at Wang Cheng. They just wanted to say hello to Wang Cheng, but Wang Cheng next He skipped his gaze for a second, and walked directly to the small restaurant not far away where he often went to eat.

   He didn't pay much attention to the three of them.

  The smiles on the faces of the three froze instantly.

Qin Yuhai's smile also disappeared, and there was a glint of gloom in his eyes. Although he had already experienced Wang Cheng's indifference, it was still hard for Qin Yuhai to accept that he was treated like this by Wang Cheng in front of three important people. and annoyed.

Shen Shenghui immediately smoothed things over and said with a smile: "You three, Wang Cheng has such a personality and doesn't like to socialize very much. It's his lunch time now, or, let's have a meal too, and see you in Wang Cheng's dormitory later How about seeing Wang Cheng?"

  The smile on the old man's face recovered again, and he said, "Then eat with Wang Cheng!"

  The other two also nodded in agreement: "Well, I'm too lazy to run around!"

  Qin Yuhai: "Okay, then let's have a meal together, I'll treat you!"

As he spoke, Qin Yuhai quickened his pace to catch up with Wang Cheng, and said, "Wang Cheng, these three are my friends. This is the new chairman of the Modu Writers Association, Mr. Xing Tongshu, who is also the vice president of the Calligraphy Association. The chairman of the association has published more than a dozen works since he was young, and won all domestic literary awards. When I was young, I even photographed one of his works and won an international award."

The old man Xing Tongshu smiled and said: "It's all in the past, it's not worth mentioning! I have retired recently, and I heard about the humble room inscription by chance last time, and I was shocked for a while. I wanted to visit the author at that time. It was delayed and failed to make the trip. Later, I heard about Xia Ke Xing, and I was so excited that I almost couldn't sleep. Even if this poem is placed next to the masterpieces of ancient great writers, it is not inferior in the slightest."

   "There is also the song West Lake Chuqing, which is also an absolute masterpiece about West Lake!"

   "Of course, when I saw the photos and videos of the works of Humble Room Ming and Xia Ke Xing, I was overwhelmed! There are almost no people in the world who can compare with Wang Cheng and you in terms of poetry and calligraphy!"

  Xing Tongshu expressed his absolute appreciation to Wang Cheng as soon as he opened his mouth.

Shen Shenghui glanced at Xing Tongshu in surprise. He didn't expect this to be the new chairman of the Shanghai Writers Association, and he was the famous Xing Tongshu. He had heard of this name a long time ago, but this person has always been very low-key. There are almost no photos of him circulating, so it's normal that he doesn't know him.

   Now, Xing Tongshu entrusted Qin Yuhai's relationship and came to see Wang Cheng in person, which can be said to have given Wang Cheng enough face.

   Xing Tongshu's position in the cultural circle of Shanghai City is absolutely pivotal.

But…

  Wang Cheng just glanced at Xing Tongshu, hummed, and then stopped talking. He has no interest in Xing Tongshu!

   The smile on Xing Tongshu's face stiffened again, and then he quickly adjusted his mentality, still smiling, glanced at Qin Yuhai, and did not speak.

Qin Yuhai and Xing Tongshu looked at each other, and could only show a helpless expression, expressing that there was nothing they could do, and then continued: "This is the new principal of Double Star University in Shanghai, Mr. Zhang Yiheng! Zhang Yiheng was transferred from the capital. Yes, I was the vice president of Capital University before."

Zhang Yiheng is in his forties, wearing glasses, looking like a scholar, and said with a smile to Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, hello! Don't mind if you take the liberty to visit. I heard from friends in the capital that you even refused the invitation from Beijing University and Mizuki." I hope you don't refuse the invitation from Shuangxing University. We are not as proud as Jingda and Mizuki. We sincerely invite you to do academic exchanges in the field of literature. Many professors and students in our college are your fans. We hope to be with you Talk about ancient poetry and calligraphy."

  Shen Shenghui's heart was shaken again. He didn't expect that the youngest person was the principal of the most famous university in Shanghai, and he was so young. There would definitely be opportunities for promotion in the future.

But…

  Wang Cheng still just hummed and didn't even look at Zhang Yiheng. He was the least interested in the academy's invitation.

Zhang Yiheng also smiled awkwardly, and said, "Wang Cheng, the Chinese Department of Shuangxing University, together with Shanghai Writers' Association, Ancient Poetry Association, Calligraphy Association, and Cultural Propaganda Department, reported an academic forum exchange and would like to invite you to participate. "

  Wang Cheng was still silent, and walked towards the small restaurant without haste, as if he hadn't heard Zhang Yiheng's words.

  Zhang Yiheng also fell silent at the moment. Although he had already inquired about Wang Cheng's personality and temper, he knew it was really difficult to get along with him only after experiencing it himself.

  If he hadn't already come and asked for something, Zhang Yiheng really wanted to turn around and leave, and he didn't want to be angry.

  Qin Yuhai continued: "Wang Cheng, this Mr. Sun Lianfang is from the Magic City Committee, and is mainly responsible for the publicity of the Magic City! This time I also made a special trip to see you..."

The pupils of Shen Shenghui's eyes suddenly dilated slightly. He looked at Sun Lianfang, who was estimated to be in his fifties, and was shocked. He really didn't expect that this person who had been keeping a low profile and not talking was the biggest one. Qin Yuhai focused on introducing the magic city committee Yes, then it must be at the Standing Committee level!

   Such characters, those former stars and entertainers in the entertainment circle, how could they be eligible to contact?

  And now, he came to see Wang Cheng in person.

  Shen Shenghui quickly observed Wang Cheng's reaction, and found that Wang Cheng was still calm and did not look at Sun Lianfang, so he couldn't help admiring him.

   I really don’t pay attention to anyone...

   No matter who comes, the most outstanding thing is that everyone is treated equally!

Sun Lianfang smiled and said, "Wang Cheng, it's really not easy to meet you. I initiated and organized the exchange forum that President Zhang mentioned just now. In West Lake City, there is a set of rules against the song you wrote about the song Xihu Chuqing." The propaganda strategy of West Lake has also launched a wave of ancient culture propaganda.”

   "I think we can't lose to them here in Shanghai! So, I'm also here to invite you to participate in this forum event. If you don't participate, this event will lose a lot of color."

  Xing Tongshu, Zhang Yiheng, Qin Yuhai, and Shen Shenghui all looked at Wang Cheng.

   Seeing that Wang Cheng still didn't look at Sun Lianfang, several people smiled wryly in their hearts, and they were all curious, what did Wang Cheng care about?

  Seeing that Wang Cheng was still silent, Qin Yuhai ignored Sun Lianfang. As the owner of Rubik's Cube Entertainment, he said, "Wang Cheng, this event is very helpful to you!"

Of course, Qin Yuhai didn't really want Wang Cheng to participate, because Wang Cheng was so kindly invited to participate in such an official event. Once Wang Cheng went and published some works, it would definitely gain a lot of fame and status. At that time, Rubik's Cube Entertainment will not be able to target Wang Cheng very well.

   At this time, the small restaurant has arrived.

  Wang Cheng said lightly: "No time!"

  Then, I ignored the few people, walked in on my own, sat in the corner where I always sat, and said to the boss: "Same as usual!"

  The boss agreed and quickly placed an order for Wang Cheng.

  Sun Lianfang stood at the door of the restaurant, looked at Wang Cheng, and remained silent for a while.

  Xing Tongshu and Zhang Yiheng stood on both sides of Sun Lianfang, also looking at Wang Cheng.

   It was the first time for them to encounter such a thing, the first time they were treated so indifferently.

  Qin Yuhai said in a low voice: "Mr. Sun, Chairman Xing, Principal Zhang, how about we have a meal first?"

  Sun Lianfang nodded: "Okay, let's eat first!"

   Xing Tongshu and Zhang Yiheng didn't object either, and nodded in agreement.

  Anyway, they came to see Wang Cheng today, and the purpose was to invite Wang Cheng to participate in their activities.

  This event was indeed organized by Sun Lianfang, and the purpose was also to promote the traditional culture of Shanghai, so as to respond to the propaganda offensive of the neighboring Xihu City, and at the same time, it was also to steal people from the Beijing circle.

  It is no secret that Wang Cheng has received invitations from many entertainment circles in the capital.

  So, of course, the cultural circle in Shanghai cannot lose to the Beijing circle.

  Although, they had sent an official invitation to Wang Cheng before, but Wang Cheng ignored it.

  However, they didn't take Wang Cheng's refusal to heart. Instead, they got in touch, and they came to the door together, and brought Qin Yuhai along!

  I just want to ensure the success of the invitation, and compare the Beijing circle and West Lake City.

   This is a hidden cultural contest.

   It is also a contest that the outside world cannot see or hear...

  However, it is a contest that happens all the time in this circle.

  North-South Circle, East-West Circle, Yangtze River Delta Circle, Pearl River Delta Circle, etc...

  The complexity is beyond the imagination of outsiders.

   It's just that, in the past twenty years or so, the entire literary circle in China has tended to be calm, with little development and no amazing works published, so it has been relatively calm and there have been no disputes.

until…

  Wang Cheng's appearance, a humble room inscription, a chivalrous poem, and the first clearing of the West Lake, master running script and cursive script, disturbed the circle that had been quiet for twenty or thirty years.

  At the same time, now that the national economy has developed to a certain scale, it has begun to pay attention to the construction of the cultural level and re-establish confidence in national culture, so the support for the cultural field has also exceeded the past.

   With the support of the policy level, this circle has also begun to surge!

  Many people want to be this early bird...

   It's just that, when they think of Wang Cheng's chivalrous conduct, humble room inscription, West Lake Chuqing, and that amazing calligraphy, everyone feels a little helpless.

Just like Xing Tongshu, he has been retired for several years, but in line with the policy trend above, he wanted to come back and publish a collection of poems this year, among which are the ancient poems he wrote inspired by him. !

  However, after seeing Wang Cheng's works...

  Xing Tongshu immediately stopped publishing his works, and sealed all the drafts.

   There are not a few people who have the same encounter and experience as him...

   Several people were in a complicated mood, so they sat down next to Wang Cheng and ordered food!

  The boss personally brought Wang Cheng a meat, a vegetarian, and a soup, as well as a bowl of rice.

  Watching Wang Cheng's simple lunch, Sun Lianfang, Xing Tongshu, and Zhang Yiheng had different expressions. They had also heard about Wang Cheng's life style, which was even more self-disciplined and simpler than the retired Xing Tongshu!

   It's just that when they saw it with their own eyes, they felt a kind of surprise even more deeply.

  That youthful and outrageous stunning face is living a self-disciplined and simple old life...

   No matter how you look at it, it's a bit inconsistent.

But…

  Wang Cheng, on the other hand, naturally held the rice and ate the vegetables slowly, chewing and swallowing every mouthful. The movements looked very pleasing to the eye, like a well-educated person who has cultivated himself for many years.

  Xing Tongshu said in a low voice: "It's unbelievable, this character is definitely the first person in the world!"

  Sun Lianfang and Zhang Yiheng were taken aback when they heard this, but then they both nodded at the same time, expressing their agreement.

  Because they all know that Wang Cheng is in Vanity Fair. As the hottest celebrity now, the temptation of fame and fortune he faces is absolutely beyond imagination, but he can still live such a self-disciplined and simple life.

  No one in this world can achieve this kind of character.

  At the very least, many of the older generations they know who are famous for self-cultivation cannot achieve such a state.

Zhang Yiheng withdrew his gaze from Wang Cheng, and said with a slightly heavy heart: "This time our forum event, there are two people who immigrated to the island country to participate, a calligrapher Lu Zhen, and a scholar Jia Qian who studies ancient literature! Graduated from the Chinese Department of Capital University with a doctorate degree, under the tutelage of the late calligrapher Chen Chaoxian; Jia Qian graduated from the Chinese Department of our Double Star University, under the tutelage of ancient literature researcher Han Shanqing."

   "When they immigrated to the island country, they caused a lot of waves."

   "I didn't expect that they took the initiative to participate in our activities this time. I think they may not be good people this time."

  Sun Lianfang and Xing Tongshu both looked calm after hearing this, and felt a little heavy in their hearts.

   And next to…

  Wang Cheng's eating movements finally changed, slowed down a bit, and looked at Zhang Yiheng and the others.
