Chapter 597 598 [Dad, you retire] (addition for book friend Zhu Haochen 2018)
For the last stop of youth, the location is located in Xihong City, so Xiang Nan's performance is naturally much harder.
And the on-site response was almost the best among the ten stations. The people of Xihong City always have more preference for children who go out from their hometown.
Applause, cheers, shouts, one after another, the waves of sound were higher than the waves, and Xiang Nan was quite moved.
So he let go of acting. Originally, each concert was only two and a half hours long, but the concerts in Xihong City were extended by 30 minutes.
Because of this, it violated the previous application, and the performer was fined. But both the performer and Xiang Nan felt it was worth it!
After the last concert, Xiang Nan will leave Xihong City.
Before leaving, he had another conversation with Yuan Hua's father, Yuan Jianguo, "Dad, you can retire early if you can. Maybe you can escape the disaster. Anyway, I earn enough money now. You I can't afford to sit on that crater again."
Yuan Jianguo was slightly taken aback.
To be honest, he really didn't want to quit.
The so-called big husband should not be without power for a day, and the young husband should not be without money for a day.
Power is really addictive.
He is now the head of the district at the deputy department level, and he almost promises everything in the district. But after he stepped back, if he spoke again, his daughter-in-law would probably not listen.
How could he accept such a big gap.
"Son, why do you ask me to step back? Go to the street every day to play chess, and carry a vegetable basket to accompany your mother to buy vegetables?" Yuan Jianguo said.
"Running the streets to play chess and go shopping with my mother, although it's boring, it's better than being arrested." Xiang Nan sighed, "Dad, I'm in Yanjing, and I have more information than you. I know that the country is paying more and more attention to corruption, and the methods are becoming more and more strict.
You back out now, and you might get away with it. But if you want to continue to love the store, you are afraid that when the time comes, you will not be able to withdraw even if you want to. You should think about whether power is more important or life is more important. "
After hearing this, Yuan Jianguo fell into deep thought.
…
During his stay in Xihong City, he asked Zhang Yang, Meng Te, Dachun and other classmates to meet and have a meal.
During the meal, Zhang Yang hinted many times that he wanted Xiang Nan to take him to Yanjing for development.
But Xiang Nan ignored him.
Zhang Yang seems to be honest and kind, but in fact it is not a joke. After learning that Charlotte was suffering from AIDS, he immediately tried his best to get Charlotte's mother. In this way, once Charlotte died, most of the inheritance belonged to him.
It can be said that he is black-hearted and shameless. If such a person is kept by his side, he may not bring disaster on himself.
As for Meng Te, he winked wildly and looked wildly, looking at his posture and wishing he could jump on him.
Fortunately, Xiang Nan is really not good at this, otherwise he might not be able to control it.
As for Dachun, I haven’t seen him in two years, and he is still as simple as when he was in school. When he came to the banquet, he even brought Xiang Nan two catties of hazel mushrooms. Said that he carefully selected, guaranteed to be the best.
Xiang Nan took the hazel mushroom and sincerely said thank you.
In "Charlotte's Annoyance", Dachun and Dongmei are the only good people. They are optimistic, content, loving, hardworking, and manage their own small family with heart. They are the people who really get happiness and happiness.
Zhang Yang and Monte knew nothing about it. They also don't care at all.
But Dachun still remembers Charlotte, knowing that he still has two years in prison before he can be released.
As for Ma Dongmei, after the accident that year, for fear of revenge from Chen Kai's family, the two of them moved soon.
As for where to move, no one knew, and she didn't tell anyone.
Hearing the news, Xiang Nan sighed.
…
At the end of May, Xiang Nan returned to Yanjing and participated in the release of Wang Fei's new album.
The new album is called "Fleeing Years", which contains many songs such as "Fleeting Years", "Laughing and Forgetting Books", "Break Up with Kindness", "Always Be Quiet", and three quarters of the songs are given by Xiang Nan.
After it was launched, it really became very popular.
Mainland China, Xiangjiang, Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia... all sold like crazy. In Taiwan alone, 800,000 copies were sold, which is quite remarkable.
You must know that after entering the new century, with the gradual popularization of the Internet and the rampant piracy, the sales of most singers' records have declined, or even cut in half.
For example, in the 1990s, the best-selling album in Taiwan was "Kiss Goodbye" by Jacky Cheung. According to official statistics, it sold 1.36 million copies. In contrast, Tao Zhe's "I'mOK" is the best-selling album in the past two thousand years, with a total sales of only 430,000 copies.
Therefore, Wang Fei's new album can sell 800,000 copies, which is really a remarkable achievement. The dealer in Taiwan even specially sent a big red envelope to congratulate her.
And with the huge sales of this album, Xiang Nan is no longer an unknown person in Hong Kong and Taiwan. He is no longer an unknown person who became popular through scandals. "Queen Wang Fei's rumored boyfriend".
Suddenly, in Hong Kong and Taiwan, more and more people came to ask him to sing, including many top singers, such as Alan Tam, Andy Lau, Guo Fucheng, Li Ming and so on.
However, Xiang Nan basically refused.
Come to think of it, he doesn't need to sell songs at all now, he has made a lot of money now, so he can't make money by selling songs.
Secondly, he is not too interested in the declining Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles.
Xiang Nan knows that in the next few years, the mainland entertainment industry will develop faster and more popular. In contrast, the entertainment industry in Hong Kong and Taiwan is in accelerated decline.
Ten years later, even Jackie Chan, Zhou Xingchi, Zhou Runfa, Andy Lau, Liang Chaowei and other former first-line movie stars have lost their box office appeal in the mainland.
Therefore, unlike other mainland stars, Xiang Nan does not want to enter the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry. With that energy, he is more willing to cultivate the entertainment industry in the mainland and raise his nationality to the highest level.
At that time, he will be able to take advantage of the rising tide of domestic entertainment and skyrocket.
Therefore, Xiang Nan basically rejected everyone's invitation to sing.
It was only because of Wang Fei's face that he wrote several songs for Leslie Cheung, such as "Under Mount Fuji", "King of Karaoke", "Exaggerated", "Good Hearts and Good Rewards", and "Seven Friends".
"I'm all looking at your face~" Xiang Nan laughed.
"I know, thank you, you are the best to me~" Wang Fei said with a smile, "You give me face, and I will give you face. Director Zhang Wanting wants to make a movie about Yanjing's rock circle. I recommend you. try."
"Zhang Wanting?!" Xiang Nan was taken aback for a moment, "Is that the Xiangjiang female director who made "Autumn Fairy Tales", "Song Dynasty", "City of Glass", and "Eight Liang Gold"?! She is so miserable Why are you filming Yanjing's rock scene?"
"She thinks it's interesting." Wang Fei said with a smile, "She thinks the rock music in the mainland has both western rhythms and Chinese flavors, which is very special. She wants to shoot a Yanjing full of contrasts that no one has ever photographed, and at the same time Fulfilling my middle school fantasies."
"Sounds boring." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said, "Besides, I'm not from the rock circle. I'm from the mainstream. I made my debut in the Spring Festival Gala. It's not the same thing as those underground bands."
