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

"A self-destructive genius? A madwoman who'll eventually fall to her death on a snowy slope? A woman with a love life that spans the globe? A fool who pushes the limits to the point of having his brain frozen?"

Tang Yu burst out laughing as he read out these common titles.

"This level is actually quite gentle, so I always control the pace of the news myself, throw out a topic for them, and hide the content that we ourselves do not want to be discussed."

I believe we need to take the initiative when dealing with paparazzi. Don't you think the cat-and-mouse game is more interesting?

After Leonardo DiCaprio became a global sensation at the age of 25, he sometimes felt that having many paparazzi was to be expected.

Sometimes I hate it, why is it that it just won't go away?

But that's human nature. How can someone want to become famous but not have their private life scrutinized?

"I haven't watched a basketball game in ages. I'll go watch a few after I finish skiing."

Tang Yu smiled and nodded, and then started working while dating in the United States.

American gossip magazines reported that the couple went skiing, and global media confirmed that the two have not broken up.

The Hong Kong media naturally mocked Superman again.

Although financial magazines have analyzed that the two were discussing business, Hong Kong citizens are still reading gossip magazines.

When Leo asked if there were any advanced tandem skiing maneuvers, Tang Yu scoffed.

"Non-existent, dream on!"

Leo, who wants his girlfriend to carry him, has no choice but to seriously learn the techniques.

After that, the young couple watched several NBA games, showing signs of being deeply in love.

This has led to speculation in gossip magazines around the world about how long these two can talk.

In May, Sister Chen shared some good news.

"The business department has always been collaborating with modern dramas, right? Meteor Garden approached a Taiwanese magazine for collaboration, so they offered brand sponsorship. The drama actually became a hit, and the brand owners were very satisfied."

Tang Yu nodded; as long as you cast a wide net, you'll eventually succeed.

“Just continue with this approach from now on, Sister Chen, you’re getting a little too excited.”

“Jade, I’m not happy for those brands, I’m happy for us. I’ve had our magazine featured multiple times in the TV series, referring to it as a top international magazine.”

The product placement was a success; sales have skyrocketed across Asia this month, and the drama seems to be a hit throughout the region.

That's why I'm happy; I've had your cover featured in the TV series many times.

Tang Yu then understood the reason for the other party's excitement.

She asked about the plot of the TV series, and then immediately started chatting with Sister Chen.

"We should sponsor more TV dramas about young people falling in love in the future, and try our best to sponsor a hit drama in Japan, South Korea and mainland China as well."

A few days later, the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards were held, and the magazine continued its generous sponsorship.

However, Tang Yu did not attend the awards ceremony this time because she and Sister Chen were planning an awards ceremony organized by the magazine itself.

For the first edition to be successful, it definitely needs to be star-studded.

Therefore, Tang Yu still needs to go back to Hong Kong to discuss this.

When we told Uncle Jim that we would be awarding him a Lifetime Achievement Award for the first time, Wong Jim looked surprised.

"Isn't this a bit much?"

“I know that Uncle Jim received the Golden Needle Award once in Hong Kong, but it only represents the Hong Kong region.”

The award I'm presenting now represents the recognition you receive from people across Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. This award is uncontroversial, and I also believe it should be awarded to you.

Besides, you should at least support me, shouldn't you?"

After Tang Yu finished speaking, Huang Zhan laughed.

"Alright, how could I refuse an award?"

Chapter 17 Supermodel 17

This awards ceremony is neither a professional music award nor a professional acting award; after all, it's a fashion-forward magazine, so we can't get our positioning wrong!

Furthermore, the main purpose of holding such award ceremonies is to enhance brand value.

Therefore, the awards are mainly based on fashion pioneers and trend leaders.

Actor of the Year, Singer of the Year, Hit Song of the Year, Athlete of the Year, Icon of the Year, Photographer of the Year, Advertisement of the Year, etc.

Therefore, this fashion event invited many people.

Besides actors and singers, it also includes people from both in front of and behind the scenes in the fashion industry, including other magazines.

In July, this grand event was held at the Shenzhen Grand Theatre.

Many people came from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong, with prominent representatives from the mainland including Faye Wong, Na Ying, Lu Yi, and Zhao Wei.

Taiwanese singers include Stefanie Sun, Jay Chou, and Wang Leehom. Actors included Ruby Lin, Alyssa Chia, Alec Su, and others filming in mainland China. The F4 from Meteor Garden and Shan Cai were also specially invited.

The Hong Kong participants were mainly singers and actors under Emperor Entertainment Group, including Nicholas Tse, Joey Yung, and Twins, as well as Leo Ku, who had previously filmed in mainland China.

Fu Mingxia participated in the event as an athlete.

Then James Wong, Lo Ta-yu, and Jonathan Lee also attended, making it a star-studded event.

As the top fashion magazine in China, Tang Yu controls half of the fashion industry. If celebrities want to use top luxury brands, they have to cooperate with the business department for their styling and clothing.

So, after several years of cooperation...

Celebrities in the entertainment industry know very well that it's a place you can't afford to offend.

You can refuse to cooperate, but if you act like a diva after cooperating, you will really be blacklisted by all the magazines under your umbrella.

Therefore, in order to maintain a good cooperative relationship, there were quite a few people who came to support us.

That evening, Tang Yu played the violin and Lang Lang played the piano, and the two of them performed the opening act, announcing the start of the grand ceremony that night.

The opening piece was written by Tang Yu himself and is titled "Wind".

At the time, Sister Chen said that some gossip magazines were spreading rumors that she could not play the violin at all and that her experience studying abroad was fake.

Let her perform occasionally to refute these rumor-mongers.

So, she ended up with an opening performance.

Jay Chou was the leading singer in Hong Kong and Taiwan that year, and F4 was the most popular group across the three regions.

Tang Yu personally presented Huang Zhan with the Lifetime Achievement Award in the Chinese Music Scene.

Finally, the awards ceremony came to a perfect end, and many media outlets in attendance reported on this grand event.

After the awards ceremony was edited, it was broadcast on television stations in mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, with Shenzhen TV broadcasting it in mainland China.

As a result, many netizens on Tianya started discussing the awards ceremony.

"That previous post made it so clear that Tang Yu couldn't play the violin. Didn't it prove them wrong? She's collaborating with Lang Lang."

Oh, Lang Lang probably doesn't even know that guy. He's a famous genius too!

"Even Hong Kong gossip magazines have never said that Tang Yu is a fake; she is a genuine genius!"

"I was used to seeing her in a fashionable and youthful way before, but the way she looked in a white dress playing the violin was stunningly beautiful. Her classical beauty was breathtaking."

"For a moment, I didn't know whether to envy Leonardo DiCaprio or Tang Yu; they're both so beautiful!"

"Then we can only cry together with the dawn!"

Amidst the heated discussions in the entertainment sector, Tang Yu's topic is certainly not the hottest; the hottest topic this year is F4.

However, as the group was chatting, one of them suddenly said the following.

"Don't you guys think that Tang Yu is the real-life version of Toudou Shizuka? She's proficient in multiple musical instruments, speaks multiple languages, is an international supermodel, and was once a violin prodigy."

Then she rebelled and became an extreme athlete, and now she's successful and has Leonardo DiCaprio, a heartthrob, as her boyfriend. Does that make her seem like she's surpassed Shizuka Todo?

"If you put it that way, I'll think of Leon Lai as Hanazawa Rui. Put yourself in his shoes, and I'll feel that it's only natural that Hanazawa Rui was abandoned by Toudou Shizuka!"

"This doesn't make any sense at all! Tang Yu's parents are just elites in Hong Kong, they have absolutely no connection with tycoons!"

"But Tang Yu embraced the glamorous fashion industry, while Tengtang Jing abandoned that circle. In essence, they are quite different, but they both pursue freedom!"

"Similar in some ways, completely different in others, it's a pity Tang Yu doesn't act."

With such a beautiful face, why doesn't she act?

As soon as the topic was started, someone quietly replied.

"At least Tang Yu still shoots commercials regularly. Do you know how painful it is to be a fan? She never goes on singing shows, never holds concerts, let alone autograph sessions. Her albums are released without any promotion. Buy it or don't, it's up to you!"

"The only way for us fans to listen to music is to watch the commercials carefully. There are usually several commercial songs every year."

"Tang Yu – a supermodel dedicated to composing songs for advertisements!"

A group of people burst into laughter, and then the fans, feeling heartbroken, gathered together to create a post.

"This time there wasn't even a song, just an instrumental piece called 'Wind,' but I still really liked it. In the end, I could only find a cassette tape to record it and listen to it repeatedly."

"Isn't this how all of us fans of Tang Yu feel? She only releases a mini-album every few years, so we can only record our own tapes."

Are there any fans more pitiful than us?

"Probably not."

Why is she so obsessed with being a supermodel? Doesn't anyone tell her that her talent lies in music?

"I have to tell you the truth, she's also very successful as a supermodel. Hong Kong gossip says she's starting her own business and doesn't have time to be a singer."

In this era of limited information, few people knew how vast Tang Yu's business empire was, and Tang Yu naturally wouldn't publicize such a thing.

She continued to follow her planned path, and in August she participated in extreme sports, including motocross.

Leo and his friends also attended the competition to cheer for Tang Yu.

The thrilling and exciting motocross races are simply an adrenaline rush.

The aerial somersaults and freestyle moves were repeatedly replayed after the competition.

When she took off her helmet after the competition, her long hair fell down, becoming the sexiest moment of the entire event this year.
