Hong Dabao will appear in this episode, and he will have a role no less than that of Ip Man. In order to wait for this role, he has begun restorative training several months ago.
Since his old injuries were cured by Liu Qingshan, his skills are much better than in previous years.
He then asked: "I invited kentcheng for you, but his physical condition is not very good. Is it possible for you to help him recuperate?"
kentcheng is Zheng Zeshi's English name. He is 56 years old. Since his debut, he has presented himself with a fat image and is known for his superb and fiery acting skills.
Due to his body shape, he doesn't have many starring roles, but his acting skills are often praised.
Judging from his appearance, this person is neither handsome nor dashing. It can be said that he does not have any star looks at all, but he is more distinctive.
His unique figure and naive appearance were very popular in the comedy industry, and he became the leading actor in his second year in the industry.
At the same time, his restrained acting skills as a police detective are also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. With this image, he won the Best Actor Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards twice.
In this film, he will break through his previous image of a police officer and play the role of Hong Kong police officer "Fat Bo", a man who, although seeking to survive in front of his foreign bosses, is actually full of conscience and supports Ip Man in the Huayang boxing match in an "extraordinary" way. positive image.
Liu Qingshan asked: "What disease does Uncle Zheng have?"
"Everything is wrong with me! That's why I asked you to treat me instead of treating me!" Hong Dabao sighed deeply, "But the most serious one is diabetes. He has lost more than 20 pounds this year because of this disease!"
"Let me show him when I get there. If there is a possibility of a cure, I will do my best!"
"Then I'll thank you for him first! But no one here calls him Uncle Zheng, so you can call him Brother Kent or Brother Fat Cat."
"Then let's go to Brother Kent! By the way, you'd better ask him to come to Shanghai to find me. Treatment after he's gone may affect the filming progress."
"Okay, I'll tell him right away and let him contact you himself!"
Soon Liu Qingshan received a call, but the caller was not Zheng Zeshi but Ren Jiahua, who will also star in "Ip Man 2".
Zheng Zeshi was well-known in the Hong Kong entertainment circle for his good popularity before, but later he lost all his money due to investment failure, sold his property to pay off debts, and betrayed his family and friends.
Among the few friends who have not severed ties with him is Ren Jiahua, an old friend.
"Brother Kent is too embarrassed to call you directly, so he asked me to ask! Shanzi, are you sure about his illness?" Ren Jiahua was straightforward and had no other nonsense.
Liu Qingshan laughed twice: "Brother Kent, you are so old, are you embarrassed? Come and have a look before we talk. If I am sure, I will do my best."
"But I have to tell you in advance, he doesn't have much money on hand right now. All the money he earned in the past few years has been used to pay off his debts."
"Hahaha, is he feeling embarrassed because of this? Brother Hua, just tell him that I have always respected him as a person, but never mention money. Then who will I become!"
"Let me just say, this guy's worries are purely unnecessary!"
"Why don't you come too? I'll find someone to accompany you around Shanghai. This city now looks like an international metropolis!"
"My going over won't affect your work, right? Then I'll go over, and I'll just go back to Xiangjiang with you. Can I take my family with me?"
"Bring them all. Ella is three years old this year, right?"
Ella is Ren Jiahua's daughter. Liu Qingshan met her when she first went to Xiangjiang. She was still a child who had just learned to walk.
"Almost four years old. Now you are always clamoring to follow me wherever I go. Your sister Qiqi is busy with work. Now I am mainly responsible for looking after the child."
"Bring Sister Qiqi here, but it will have to wait until a week later. In the meantime, I will go back to the United States."
"Xi Shan is also going?"
"She will go first. I have two days to go. Sister Qiqi and our Xishan are best friends, so we have to let them stay together for two days."
"Then I'll ask her the time. I should
It’s not a big problem, it’ll be a week later, right? "
Then Zheng Zeshi called himself, naturally expressing all kinds of thanks.
The next morning, it was the recording time of the eighth episode of "I Am a Singer".
There are obviously more people outside the TV station today. These are the crowds of onlookers brought by the popularity of the show.
And these people range in age, and many middle-aged and older fans actively participate.
This was also verified by Liu Huan: "There are many people outside who are coming for me, and I saw someone holding up a banner!"
No wonder he was surprised. With the emergence of the fan phenomenon, few old artists of their generation are being followed.
"We have gained a lot more fans through this show." Chen Yusheng apparently also saw someone holding his and other people's signs.
Liu Huan smiled and shook his head: "We are just fans at best. Today's fan culture has nothing to do with us, let alone any traffic."
Daolang rarely participated in this kind of conversation before, but today he is uncharacteristically uncharacteristic for some reason: "I agree with Huan Ge's point of view. The traffic is only for young people. Our fans are all over thirty, and the age of surfing the Internet is generally younger."
Liu Qingshan was pouting in his heart, but he knew that Daolang would suddenly become famous on the Internet in more than ten years, with the number of fans counting in the hundreds of millions.
But now we can't bring it up and say: "Brother Dao, how old are you that you can imitate Brother Huan's old-fashioned attitude?"
"I'm 36 years old this year. I'm not too old, but I can still be considered a has-been singer, right?"
He is now very familiar with Liu Qingshan and is one of the few people who can make him talk more.
Chen Yusheng quite agreed with his statement: "Although Hu Quan and I have just turned 30, we are already feeling outdated. Although there are many announcements, most of them are music festivals and concerts, at least there are no variety shows. us."
Jin Xishan smiled and said: "From now on, your variety show announcements will come. The two of us who have the most variety show feel in this show are you two. You are funny and talented. If I were the director, I would consider you first!"
Hu Quan immediately acted like a dog licker and looked straight at Liu Qingshan: "Shanzi, Xueyu Entertainment is the leading variety show in the mainland. Consider us. We are also suitable for non-music variety shows. Renjiaxi Shandu has noticed it, so I have to give this face to my brother, right?"
Liu Qingshan smiled and nodded: "After this show, I will immediately launch another one, but it will still be a music variety show. Other types of variety shows will have to wait until next year!"
"The music variety show is also possible!" Chen Yusheng immediately became excited, "I have no doubt about the program you planned. As long as the schedule is confirmed, everything else can be rejected."
Liu Qingshan further explained: "This program is called "The Endless Sound". It brings together 16 singers or groups from Hong Kong and the Mainland who love Hong Kong music. They are divided into two male and female teams. Through six themed competitions, they adapt and sing Hong Kong music. The legendary golden songs complete the Hong Kong Philharmonic's expression in the new era, and create a 'Hong Kong Philharmonic Era Record' with the audience."
Liu Huan slapped his thigh: "This is a good idea. Today's two generations grew up listening to Cantonese songs. The Hong Kong Philharmonic's classic senior singers, artists and classic repertoire will bring many young memories shared by people in both places. You kid What a brain he has, he can always innovate, I’m sure this show will be the best!”
Liu Qingshan shook his head: "But it's just an idea at the moment. If it can be realized, I hope to cooperate with a TV station in Xiangjiang and use the method of simultaneous live broadcast!"
"Live broadcast? You really dare to think about it. In this case, first of all, the participating singers must be genuine. Not only must they really sing, but they must also have the same effect as the one produced in the recording studio. It is very difficult!"
"I have always insisted on singing authentically during my performances, so I feel that what I can do can be done by others! Moreover, not using accompaniment tapes is the general trend, and it is also the most obvious difference from popular stars, and my show is not Singers who need any traffic also use this to express their personal attitude."
"I think it will work. Although it is not easy, it will win the active support of the vast majority of senior singers. At least I am a little enthusiastic after listening to it.
The blood boils. "
"Brother Huan, do you want to join in?" Jin Xishan asked.
Liu Huan also shook his head: "My Cantonese expression is not good, but these two brothers are very suitable. When they performed in bars in the early years, they often sang some old Cantonese songs!"
Hu Quan immediately made a gesture of taking out a cigarette. Of course, it was just for show. There were several cameras erected around him.
He was almost shouting and begging: "We will participate, we will participate, and we guarantee our Cantonese singing ability, and we can even charge only 60% of the notification fee!"
Liu Qingshan said happily: "If you don't need your money, our production costs will be very high. We will produce it completely according to the super large-scale program. Besides, the appearance fees of those Hong Kong singers are not high."
Jin Xishan nodded: "Well, the only one that is falsely high is our mainland market. Shanzi said that if this continues, the mainland entertainment industry will soon evolve into a falsely prosperous market like castles in the air!"
Liu Huan sighed: "It's all caused by bad capital. I don't know much from Han Guo. Although the entertainment industry there has an obvious trend of traffic first, the related expenses have always been in a controllable and healthy state."
"We can just talk about these things ourselves, but we can't publicize them to the outside world. This will easily lead to the jealousy of our peers. I was kicked out twice!" Daolang's tone was full of helplessness.
Liu Qingshan patted his shoulder; "This kind of thing won't happen so easily in the future. I've listened to what you said. We can just talk about this. I don't have that much time and energy to do this." Have some leisure time!"
At this time, deputy director Gong Jian and two managers from Shanghai TV pushed the door in.
He said: "The time is almost up. If you need to solve your personal problems, hurry up. You only have seven minutes to prepare!"
Everyone dispersed on their own, but Liu Qingshan was stopped by Hou Taizhang, one of the visitors, the deputy director of the station: "Tell me about your new variety show. Why do you have to leave this show to our Shencheng TV station to produce it no matter what!"
