Huayu Chunqiu, starting from being adopted by a fairy mother

Chapter 142 Sissi's View on Choosing a Mate
Liu Jing was of course unwilling to accept the retort from Sister Li.

"Do you think I'm jealous of Xixi?" Liu Jing asked.

"No." After Sister Li finished arguing with Liu Jing, she let it go and watched the performance on the stage with relish, laughing from time to time.

Liu Jing didn't find it interesting at all. Just a few people talking nonsense on the stage. What was there to see?

"Xixi likes to be an actor very much. She is different from me. I regard acting as a profession, and she regards it as a hobby. Your marketing of her title of Fairy Sister may not be a good thing for her. It will only limit her development." Liu Jing advised earnestly.

"I really didn't do any marketing on purpose. I did start the fire and fan the flames. What happened next had nothing to do with me. I couldn't control it even if I wanted to." Sister Li smiled bitterly. Why didn't this kid believe it? She was convinced that it was my doing.

"Alas! From now on, Xixi should only take one drama a year, and it would be best if she shoots during the summer vacation. In the end, what actors compete on is culture. Having academic qualifications does not mean culture. There are so many people who have nothing but a good appearance but an empty mind." Liu Jing sighed. At this moment, he was thinking back to what Chow Yun-fat said back then, which might not be wrong.

If he wasn't special and had continued to film since he was a child, he should have made a lot of money now, but he would definitely be broke.

"Don't worry. Xixi is very smart and her academic performance is very good. The knowledge learned in school will not be difficult for her." Sister Li was full of confidence.

Liu Jing was surprised. Xixi hasn't gotten carried away yet, but you, as her mother, are.

"You're not trying to market her as a top student, are you?" Liu Jing asked suspiciously.

"No, who would dare to call themselves a top student in front of you?" Sister Li really didn't have that idea.

Liu Jing breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't randomly ask Xixi to take on any roles. If there is any script you want to take on, show it to me first."

"Well! I rejected all the scripts that were handed to Xixi recently. Tangren also handed me a script, a screenplay adapted from a game. The same goes for Old Cai. Chunqiu Pictures has invested in it, but I still use her to hand me scripts. Adapting games into TV series is simply nonsense. The same goes for the country. How can they allow it to be adapted? Isn't that indirectly promoting the game?" Sister Li didn't understand and felt that this was harming minors.

"Old Cai doesn't know about your relationship with Chunqiu Pictures, and she may not even know about your relationship with your aunt. Old Cai has been hanging out in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and has just shifted her attention to the mainland. She knows a lot about the twists and turns of relationships in Hong Kong and Taiwan. There are so many film and television companies in the mainland, and the market is huge, but she doesn't know much about it." Liu Jing explained.

"It's really amazing that a woman, forced to do something against her will, can revive a bankrupt company." Sister Li sighed, saying that the entertainment industry is a man's game, whether in mainland China, Hong Kong or Taiwan.

But there are four film and television companies in the mainland, all of which are supported by women.

Cai Yinong from Tangren, Jiang Xueruo from Zhouyi, Li Xiaowan from Rong Xinda, and Zhang Min from Spring and Autumn Pictures.

"Her start was not as good as Zhang Min and Li Xiaowan's, but she was able to fight her way out. She is really capable." Although Liu Jing had many complaints about Lao Cai, he still admired her abilities.

"Whatever happens, I won't let Xixi shoot a script adapted from a game."

"There's nothing wrong with games being adapted into TV series. You're too narrow-minded. Everything can be adapted into a TV series in the future."

"You think so highly of Lao Cai. Why didn't she invite you to play a role when she adapted the game?" Sister Li laughed.

"Lao Cai is a narrow-minded person. When we were filming The Book and the Sword, I made too many suggestions. She was afraid that if she invited me over, I would become a drama tyrant and she would have trouble controlling me." Liu Jing didn't care. He didn't want to work with Lao Cai either. She was too narrow-minded and stubborn. She always felt that others were harming her and that working with her was too tiring.

At this time, there were changes on the stage and the two ended their conversation.

Li Xiang changed the topic to Sister Li, "Yi Fei, your mother is a dancer, do you like dancing?"

"I... I actually quite like dancing." Xixi was obviously feeling a little guilty, and subconsciously looked towards the audience when she said this.

"Besides dancing, what other hobbies do you have?" Li Xiang asked.

"Reading, traveling, going to the amusement park, playing video games..." Xixi paused here, obviously realizing that she shouldn't say anymore.

Chen Hao at the side quickly responded, "Do you like playing video games too? Let's make an appointment some time."

"They're talking about using the computer." He Jiong said quickly.

"Yeah! I like to use the computer, browse some websites, read some news and so on." Xixi took over.

"I like playing games on the computer." Chen Hao laughed.

"Yifei, what kind of books do you like to read?" He Jiong took over the topic.

"Well! I like to read "Things about the Qin Dynasty" serialized in Chunqiu Academy, and "Soushen Ji", "The Journey to the West", "Zichuan", "Tales of the Demons and Gods" and "Zhu Xian" on Qinglong Chinese website." Qianqian pondered for a moment and gave an answer that surprised the host and satisfied Liu Jing and Sister Li.

This part was completely free improvisation by Sissi. No one told her in advance, and no one asked her to say this.

At the beginning of the year, Chunqiu Academy acquired several novel websites and tapped a large number of talents.

Some people suggested that Chunqiu Academy be split into several websites and operated separately.

At first, the Chinese website focused on martial arts, fairy tales, fantasy, science fiction, etc., and its target audience was men.

Suzaku Literature City mainly publishes romantic novels, targeting female audience.

The Chunqiu Academy focused on history, military affairs, and realistic literature for the purpose of publishing.

Chushi and Zhuque websites launched the VIP charging model in October, while increasing writers' benefits to attract a large number of writers to join.

Sister Li invested 20 million yuan and told the management that as long as the website operated well, there would be no shortage of subsequent investment.

Sister Li has placed advertisements at the end credits of TV series such as "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", "Huan Xisha", "The Book and the Sword", "The Knight-Errant", etc.

With the popularity of Tianlong, it has really brought a lot of traffic to the website.

Sister Li smiled and whispered, "I have to tell Li Xiang not to interrupt this part and give our website a free advertisement."

"Give her a chicken leg when we get home." Liu Jing quickly agreed.

"Hmph!" Sister Li didn't give him a good look.

The conversation continued on stage, and He Jiong said with a smile, "Yi Fei reads quite a variety of books. Where do you like to travel?"

"Teacher He, I haven't been to many places. Sister Tao and Sister Hao have been to more places." Xixi stepped aside and the three of us went on stage. You can't just ask me and leave the other two out.

He Jiong was about to ask Liu Tao when Li Xiang suddenly said, "Yi Fei, since you like dancing, you must be good at it. I would like to invite you to dance here."

"My level is average, don't be disappointed." Xixi handed the microphone to Li Xiang, she was still a little puzzled. There was indeed a dance segment, but it didn't seem to be here in the process.

But now that it has been brought up, let’s not follow the procedure.

As the music started, Xixi started to perform a modern dance on the stage. Liu Jing had no mood to watch because Sister Li was staring at him with a bad look.

"Why are you looking at me? Look at her dancing. You taught her step by step." Liu Jing felt guilty.

"Did you take Xixi to play video games again?" Sister Li rubbed her eyebrows. Children always think that adults don't know what they do, but in fact sometimes adults know everything.

"It's just going to the video game arcade, why are you so nervous? I'm not saying anything bad about you, but there's something wrong with the way you educate your child. Xixi is not a child without her own opinions, nor is she a student who can be easily led astray. The more you regard video games and the like as a scourge, the more curious she will be. Teenagers are at the age of rebellion. This is still the time when I follow her. If we keep a close eye on her and scold her harshly, she will go there by herself one day, wouldn't you be even more nervous?" Liu Jing's expression became serious and he started to make excuses.

"Hey! You're trying to lecture me." Sister Li looked at you coldly. No matter how much you talk, it can't change the fact that you went to the video game arcade.

"Some things can be controlled, but some things you can't. She's grown up, and she's not your child anymore. If she's curious about the arcade, satisfy her curiosity. Let her play under our noses, and when she's had enough and played everything, she'll find it boring. When she gets tired of playing and doesn't want to play anymore, she may not be willing to go even if you hit her." Liu Jing went on to explain, patted Sister Li on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Don't worry! I know more about educating children than you do. With me by her side, Xixi will be safe no matter what happens."

Sister Li looked at Liu Jing in a daze. The naughty kid really mistaken black for white and even cleared himself of all blame.

She was a little dazed. Old An used to be nagging like this, but he hadn't talked to her about this for many years.

She sighed softly, "Don't be a director anymore, be a teacher."

"Why?" Liu Jing was puzzled. Weren't we discussing video games? How did it get to the topic of careers?

"You haven't learned other skills from Old An, but when it comes to being a teacher, you're better than him." Sister Li snorted, her eyes fixed on the stage. Her daughter's dance was nearing its end.

Liu Jing didn't care. No matter what you say, this storm is over.

When Sissi finished dancing on the stage, there was thunderous applause from the audience.

"Yifei, you danced really well. It was very beautiful." Li Xiang praised.

"What's so good about it? My mom didn't even watch the whole thing. She was just busy chatting." Xixi said self-deprecatingly.

As she finished speaking, the camera swept towards the audience, facing Sister Li and Liu Jing.

"Wow, Auntie is so beautiful." He Jiong said exaggeratedly.

"Auntie, Xixi said that you didn't watch her dance. Do you lack confidence in her?" Li Xiang asked with a smile.

Someone handed the microphone over, and Sister Li smiled and said, "I have great confidence in her, so there's no need to look."

The camera returned to the stage, and Li Weijia asked Xixi, "Yifei, can you tell us what interesting things happened during the filming of "Tianlong"? "

Liu Jing muttered in the audience, "Finally we're getting to the point."

Xixi, Liu Tao and Chen Hao came to "Happy Camp" to promote "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils".

Except at the beginning, He Jiong said, "Let's welcome the fairy sister Liu Yifei, A Zi Chen Hao and A Zhu Liu Tao from "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils."

After talking for half an hour, he never mentioned "Tian Long" again.

The recording time of "Happy Camp" is relatively long, and in the end a large number of shots will be cut, leaving only a small part of the content.

Liu Jing is very concerned about the promotion of "Tian Long". In addition to the investment from Chunqiu Academy, Qianqian also gained from the entertainment industry.

As the heroine, Xixi's bonus coefficient is 0.7. The more money the TV series sells, the more entertainment power Liu Jing gets.

The movies shot by Big Beard are still very popular.

After one, two, and three rounds, plus those from Hong Kong and Taiwan, more than 50 million have been sold, and Liu Jing also earned more than 30,000 points of entertainment energy.

Now Liu Jing's entertainment energy has exceeded the 700,000 mark, and he is not far from upgrading.

At this pace, you can reach the upgrade in just over a year.

Liu Jing originally thought that Xixi would take over the conversation and talk about the interesting things that happened during the filming of "Tian Long", after all, she had experienced a lot.

But Xixi turned around and looked at Liu Tao. "Sister Tao is very cheerful. She is not as boring as me. She knows a lot of interesting things."

Liu Jing was speechless. Xixi's emotional intelligence was much higher than his. This was an opportunity for Liu Tao to speak. Give him more shots.

Liu Tao was also stunned. Before she came, she had already prepared herself to be an unknown person.

Among the three, Chen Hao is the most famous. After the movie "Sex and the City" at the beginning of the year, Chen Hao became synonymous with "heartthrob".

But Liu Yifei is the most popular these days, and is known as the Fairy Sister, a title that even Li Ruotong didn't get back then.

"Xixi often sends me text messages, both big and small. Don't underestimate her young age, what she says is very interesting, not as boring as she says." Liu Tao said with a smile.

"Did she send you a message? What type of boys does she like?" Li Weijia asked.

"She is only sixteen years old. Don't set a trap for us to fall into." Liu Tao exposed it without any hesitation.

"Just a chat, talk about Yifei's views on choosing a partner." Li Weijia smiled, looked at Xixi and asked, "Yifei, is Jimmy Lin your type?"

"He's a very good brother, but he and I are not from the same generation." Sissi shook her head.

"So what kind do you like? A peerless hero like Qiao Feng, an honest and upright man like Xu Zhu, or a handsome and dashing man like Duan Yu?" Li Xiang gave a range.

Xixi thought about it seriously. "I don't like any of them. Love and the like are too far away for me. I like the feeling of being natural and the feelings that come naturally. He doesn't have to be a hero, nor does he have to be handsome. I think there is a poem that says it very well: I have searched for him among the crowd for thousands of times, but when I look back, he is standing at the end of the street where the lights are dim. When I need him, he will naturally appear by my side."

"That's well said. I also envy this kind of love." Li Xiang had a sweet look on her face. She felt that she was just like that.

"Liu Tao, Chen Hao, and Tianlong brothers, if I asked you to choose one, which one would you choose?" He Jiong asked.

"I like honest and decent people like Xu Zhu." Chen Hao responded.

"I like heroes like Qiao Feng." Liu Tao said with a smile.

"I'm so sad. Is it possible that there is no market for a handsome guy like me?" Li Weijia covered his chest.
