Film and Television Variety Show: The Jade Girl's Love Affair

"That's right, we're all Chinese."

As the conversation reached this point, Robert leaned close to Tang Yu's ear and chuckled.

Was the topic you were just discussing very important?

"It is somewhat important, I'll explain it to you later."

Come on, try this dish first, it looks pretty good to me..."

Tang Yu, who still can't accept British food, found the dishes on the table today to be very delicious.

Robert enjoyed a meal and then asked Jackie Chan for a photo.

The next day, Jackie Chan took Tang Yu and Robert to the recording studio.

When Tang Yu presented Jackie Chan with the song "High Mountains and Flowing Water" for him to try singing, he was surprised and sang it.

“I’m really surprised. I thought that since you grew up in Taiwan and studied in the UK for so many years, your music style would be more Western.”

“Different regions have different cultures and tastes. My English albums are actually more in line with the style of Europe and America.”

But since I used Chinese lyrics for this song, I naturally want to express it through Eastern culture.

In terms of accompaniment, Tang Yu incorporated elements of traditional Chinese musical instruments.

Jackie Chan really liked this song with its strong Chinese style.

Because the music is grand and magnificent, incorporating traditional folk music, and the melodious tune is very pure, the next step was to record the song.

Susan was extremely busy during this period because it involved contract matters, so she had to keep an eye on things every day.

Then she also had to negotiate record production and distribution issues in mainland China, so she was busy every day.

However, Tang Yu doesn't need to be busy. She has already hired an agent, so why should she have to put in the effort for this kind of thing?

So she took Robert to Hong Kong for a trip.

Perhaps because she had a few meals with Jackie Chan, the paparazzi in Hong Kong finally noticed her.

As the last two days of their trip were drawing to a close, the couple were photographed by paparazzi in several photos.

"When I kissed you just now, I felt like we were being filmed."

Robert, belatedly realizing what was happening, spoke up in a daze. He had a feeling of being filmed, but when he turned around, it seemed like he couldn't see anyone.

"Don't worry about it. So what if they take pictures? We're not having a secret relationship."

I'll ignore anyone who doesn't rush up to me.

Robert burst out laughing as soon as Tang Yu said that.

"Are you mocking American paparazzi? But I feel like they're afraid to go up there now."

Ever since that incident in the US where a microphone flew out and hit someone, American paparazzi have been too afraid to get close enough to get a face-to-face shot.

"Most people in this world are the type who take advantage of kindness."

If you're too nice to them, the paparazzi will take advantage of you, so don't be too polite to them.

After saying this, Tang Yu tiptoed and kissed the other person, then took Robert's hand and smiled as she spoke.

"Jackie Chan's son invited me to dinner, and it's a bit hard to refuse, so you'll come with me."

Robert burst out laughing after hearing that.

"So, am I here in Hong Kong to protect you?"

"Of course, I really don't want the Hong Kong media to write about ten rumored boyfriends for me, so you'd better just be my boyfriend and fulfill your duty!"

The next day, the couple had dinner with some young people from Hong Kong before taking a plane and leaving that evening.

By this time, several gossip media outlets in Hong Kong had already written several news articles about the two of them.

Breaking news! Cedric and Cho Chang from "Harry Potter" are dating off-screen and have been spotted on the streets of Hong Kong!

Are the tragic couple from Harry Potter reunited in real life? The "Sai-Qiu Couple" share a sweet kiss in Hong Kong!

These are already some of the more normal headlines; the more sensational ones are hard to look at.

However, the fact that the two were dating was discovered by media outlets around the world.

However, since neither of them are top global celebrities, the news discussion only lasts for a few days at most.

However, in Chinese-speaking regions, Tang Yu, who has ventured into Hollywood and the Western music scene, is becoming increasingly famous.

After all, her performance this year has been truly outstanding, especially since she released her album in the second half of the year.

First, she topped the charts in the UK, then she generated a huge buzz in the US, and even attended several music award ceremonies in the US, truly becoming a star this year.

Australia has recently climbed onto the list, and Susan has already discussed with Tang Yu about going to Australia for promotion.

As for the Chinese album, Tang Yuge has already written it, and it's still in the negotiation stage.

Which company to choose for the issuance, and the allocation of profits and resources between the two parties—these are all things that need to be discussed.

However, Tang Yu did not expect that after returning to the UK and participating in several programs and music festivals, she would receive another invitation from Jackie Chan.

Will this song be premiered at the Spring Festival Gala?

"Yes, after I met with the director of this year's Spring Festival Gala, he thought the song was very good and suggested that it be performed for the first time at this year's Spring Festival Gala."

Tang Yu thought about her schedule and hesitated for a moment.

“I can come back for rehearsals, but I have several jobs confirmed in the UK. Can the director coordinate the schedule?”

Jackie Chan immediately laughed on the other end of the phone. He was also very busy, so how could he possibly coordinate with rehearsals without interruption?

Once things are coordinated, none of this will be a problem.

After agreeing to the job, Tang Yu quickly contacted Susan to prepare the clothes.

The Spring Festival Gala is a very important stage. If you can make a splash, the subsequent negotiations should go very smoothly.

At least we can get a little more profit.

In 2007, the BRIT Awards ceremony was held on February 14, which also happened to be Valentine's Day.

Tang Yu had just finished rehearsing in Beijing when she quickly flew back to attend this awards ceremony.

Robert spoke sadly.

"This Valentine's Day, I can only be a spectator in the audience."

"After the awards ceremony, Valentine's Day isn't over yet. Are you planning to sneak away and leave me alone at the awards ceremony?"

Robert burst out laughing when he heard this.

“Darling, I’ve never seen you down before. I was a little tired, but I’m so happy to see you.”

Tang Yu looked up and smiled, then kissed the other person.

"After I finish my work in Beijing, let's go on vacation to Sydney."

Chapter 7 Tang Yu Hollywood 7

At that year's BRIT Awards, Tang Yu's Velocity Crush won the Best Single award.

When the host presented the award, he jokingly asked if she was going to celebrate the award with her boyfriend.

"Of course, if he doesn't show up for this holiday, he's finished!"

After spending Valentine's Day with her boyfriend, Tang Yu flew back to Beijing the next day because the Spring Festival was just around the corner.

On February 17th, after dark.

Viewers in most parts of the country tuned in to CCTV and watched the Spring Festival Gala together as a family.

Although watching the Spring Festival Gala is not as common in the south as it is in the north, it still covers most of China.

Tang Yu and Jackie Chan's song was scheduled quite early, around 8:30. The host then briefly mentioned the story behind the song "High Mountains and Flowing Water," and suddenly, melodious flute music filled the stage.

The moment the light shone down, Tang Yu, dressed in a red and white blouse, was playing the bamboo flute.

The clear and ethereal flute music instantly captured the audience's attention.

Immediately, Jackie Chan began singing the first line of lyrics, and the melodious lyrics instantly transported everyone into a dreamlike world of flowing water and towering mountains.

After Jackie Chan finished singing, Tang Yu put down her bamboo flute and began to sing.

The collaboration between the two was refreshing, and quite a few trend-conscious young people knew Tang Yu.

But for older people, it was truly the first time they had ever seen such a young female singer.

However, the impact of her stunning beauty still led most viewers to repeatedly watch the song's replays.

The song was catchy, and the singer was good-looking, making it the most popular song on that year's Spring Festival Gala.

This was also Tang Yu's first public appearance in mainland China, which immediately made the song a hit after the Spring Festival Gala.

Therefore, Tang Yu's Mandarin album was quickly scheduled for release.

The audience base has been established; the next step is to increase publicity.

Therefore, Tang Yu accepted part of the work in 2007 to promote her album in mainland China.

After the Spring Festival Gala, Tang Yu performed another album title track, "Listening to the Wind," at the Lantern Festival Gala, a slow and lyrical song.

Two Chinese songs directly opened up the mainland market for Tang Yu. After the album was released in March, its sales exceeded 100,000 copies in the first month.

Is this a good result?

Tang Yu expressed her hesitation because her English albums had already sold 300,000 copies in the UK, but there are not many people in the UK.

It seems there are already 500,000 copies in the US, but since it was released in the second half of the year, it should continue to grow.

So it seems she's become a bit more popular recently.

At least now when she goes out, people don't call her Qiu Zhang anymore; the audience's impression of her has completely changed to that of a singer.

After all, songs need time to spread.

"In just over a month, the results have already been very impressive. By the end of the year, we may be able to expect more than 500,000 copies."

However, with Harry Potter set to release this year, sales might break records again.
