Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 734 Acquiring Tesla!
Zhou Yang noticed the comment as soon as she got off the plane. She really didn't like it. Isn't "naturally beautiful" a compliment for girls?
The next morning, Zhou Yang boarded a flight back to China. As soon as he got off the plane, he saw Chen Tianzhen waiting for him in front of the car.

Chen Tianzhen recognized Zhou Yang at a glance and waved to him.

"Sister Tianzhen, why did you come to pick me up in person? Didn't you say you were busy preparing for Ouyang Nana's advertisement?" Zhou Yang asked as he put on his sunglasses.

Zhou Yang was somewhat surprised to see Chen Tianzhen come to greet her personally, as she still had many matters to attend to at the company.

“Nobel Peace Prize laureates aren’t busy, so what’s it to me picking you up at the airport? You must be tired after filming and then flying abroad,” Chen Tianzhen said with a smile.

Zhou Yang touched his nose and replied, "Then I really have to thank you! Actually, I'm not tired at all, really!"

Along the way, while driving, Chen Tianzhen chatted about some interesting things that had happened in the company recently and the development of the artists.

“Peng Lichang is a good young man, but he’s always bothered by comments that he’s ‘too young,’” she mentioned.

“I think he’s suitable for playing the male lead in a TV series, which should make him an instant star!” Zhou Yang said after thinking for a moment.

Nowadays, female fans like to watch domineering male leads in idol dramas. Chen Tianzhen agreed with Zhou Yang's suggestion and decided to arrange a similar role for him in the near future.

Ten minutes later, Chen Tianzhen took Zhou Yang home.

"I'm going to the company to pick out a script now. You get some rest and don't neglect your health!" she said through the car window.

Zhou Yang smiled and nodded repeatedly in agreement.

He then sat on the sofa and turned on his phone. A series of messages from WeChat groups popped up on the screen.

Zhu Yawen: Congratulations, boss! I'm so happy! We had a big meal at the Shanghai Grand Hotel today!
Old Hu: I can smell the delicious aroma! Australian lobsters are calling me!

Baoqiang: No matter how much you try to attract people, nothing beats the allure of the Nobel Peace Prize! It's so tempting!
Zhou Yang: Oh my god! If I don't treat you guys to a meal after winning this award, I'll seem stingy!

Old Hu: That's not how it works! We're treating to dinner tonight!
Zhou Yang: Did you suddenly become rich? It feels like you've become a millionaire overnight?
Zhu Yawen: This is more than just making money! Your award has really made us all rich too, haha!
Wu Jing: I won millions from betting! Treating everyone to a meal is nothing special!
Lao Hu: The Nobel Peace Prize is truly something to aspire to! Don't you think so, Mr. Zhou?

……

Looking at the interactions in the WeChat group, Zhou Yang felt that this was the first time these young men had treated him to a meal, and he would really feel bad if he didn't eat more.

At 7 p.m., Zhou Yang drove to the Shanghai Grand Hotel.

Having been here several times, he was so familiar with the place that he felt like he was at home, and easily found his private room.

As soon as the door opened, Lao Hu and the others looked at him.

Zhu Yawen stood up, smiled, and shook hands with Zhou Yang. "See? Tonight, I'm the first person to shake hands with a Nobel Peace Prize laureate!"

Zhou Yang laughed, "Sister-in-law, have you been busy lately? Has Yawen been punished for a few days?"

A good-natured laugh came from the private room. Everyone in the industry knew that Zhu Yawen was very afraid of his wife.

"Sit down quickly! Serve Zhou Yang some food while it's still hot! He can eat as much as he wants, he just can't stop eating anyway!"

Old Hu looked at the two of them and quickly greeted them.

The food was served very quickly at the Shanghai Grand Hotel. As soon as Zhou Yang arrived, the table was immediately filled with a sumptuous spread.

Old Hu raised his glass and said excitedly, "Hey! We have a Nobel Peace Prize laureate here! Come on, everyone, raise your glasses!" Zhou Yang smiled, and everyone clinked glasses and drank together.

The dinner table was bustling with activity as everyone chatted about recent events, occasionally picking up food and raising their glasses in celebration.

Old Hu looked at Huang Xiaobo and asked directly, "You've been appearing on WeChat Moments every day lately, what's going on?"

Huang Xiaobo quickly waved his hand and sighed, "It's all because of my romantic entanglements! I participated in a variety show, and that girl insisted that I was incredibly charming and wanted to elope with me!"

Zhou Yang couldn't help but laugh; newcomers like this are always too eager to achieve success.

"Is that girl's surname Cui and her given name 'Yizhihua'?" Zhou Yang teased, his gaze seemingly glancing at Huang Xiaobo's beer belly.

"You can't just say things like that! Be careful your sister-in-law doesn't hear you!" Huang Xiaobo replied with a big laugh, not caring at all.

Baoqiang took a sip of his drink and joked, "Don't just talk about Xiaobo, Zhou Yang and Lao Hu are also single!"

Although Zhou Yang is young and not in a hurry, it is still worrying. But when will Lao Hu, who has been single for many years, finally get out of the quagmire of being single?

"That hits home! I have no plans to get married or date!" Old Hu immediately retorted.

Zhou Yang touched his nose, somewhat helplessly. How did the topic suddenly turn to him?
"But seriously, Xia, you've made quite a few movies! Choosing a script this time might be a bit challenging!" Huang Xiaobo said to Zhou Yang with a smile, adding that to avoid being limited by the content of a film, one must constantly surpass oneself.

In the entertainment industry, many actors are confined by fixed types or roles, making audiences feel that their performances are always the same.

Zhou Yang scratched his head and said, "Brother Xiao Bo's latest film, 'Lost in Thailand,' is pretty good! I've also made similar films before. The key is acting skills, not just the genre! Haha!"

The other actors present nodded in agreement. Indeed, the success of a film depends not only on the script but also on the actors' performances.

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Yang decided to say, "I still want to make a challenging film."

Old Hu poured Zhou Yang a glass of wine, wondering what kind of movie could possibly challenge Zhou Yang.

"You've already made comedies, military films, and movies that reflect human nature. I really can't think of anything else that can challenge you!" Old Hu said.

Hearing this, Zhou Yang shook his head helplessly.

Huang Xiaobo casually took a bite of his food and interjected, "Xia's acting skills are already superb. There's no role that can pose a challenge for him! Just kidding! If he wants a challenge, it can only be those extreme roles!"

Zhou Yang's interest was immediately piqued, and he asked, "What kind of extreme character are you referring to?"

"That's the change in physique! For example, playing a fat man weighing several hundred pounds, or a very strong and muscular man, or even a person as thin as a stalk of straw! These are the real challenges!" Huang Xiaobo explained.

Although he spoke casually, Zhou Yang became deeply interested in it.

His eyes lit up as he recalled how he had starved himself for several days to prepare for the role of Lü Shouyi, becoming thin and listless.

However, he never tried the kind of role mentioned above.

Zhou Yang had a sudden inspiration, thinking of a movie character. He excitedly grasped Huang Xiaobo's hand and said, "Thank you, Brother Xiaobo! Your suggestion is so insightful!"
