I Really Didn’t Want to Enter the Entertainment Industry

Young and promising, he was wrongfully imprisoned.

By the time his name was cleared and he was released, his parents had aged, his daughter was still young, and he—now middle-aged—had to ...

Chapter 276 Today's Happiness (Please subscribe to support!)

Others don't know why Xu Kai would rather lose money to produce "Happy Comedian", but Xu Li knows it very well. The reason why Xu Kai spent money, time and effort on "Happy Comedian" is entirely because Xu Kai wants to make him the protagonist and to promote him to be a big star on his own.

In the six months since Xu Kai was released from prison, the Xu family has undergone tremendous changes.

Let’s not talk about others for now, let’s talk about Xu Li.

Buy a big villa.

Buy a luxury car.

I have played several relatively important roles.

He has also appeared on several variety shows.

Xu Kai even wrote a poem called "Uncommon Characters" for him.

It can be said that in order to make Xu Li famous, Xu Kai did everything he could.

But after all this trouble, Xu Li is still Xu Li, still not very well-known. Even when walking on the street, he doesn't need to cover his face.

The key point is that we cannot say that Xu Kai is not good at praising people.

Take the song "Uncommon Characters" sung by Xu Li for example.

This song, which makes perfect use of Chinese characters and has a catchy melody, quickly became an Internet hit once it was released, and was on the hot search list three times, attracting countless cover singers. Many well-known domestic media and celebrities also reposted it, and it became so popular that it became the BGM of many videos. Even many foreigners have joined the army of cover singers.

However, "Uncommon Characters" has become popular abroad, and no one remembers Xu Li because of it.

Xu Kai once told Xu Li that the reason why Xu Kai did not give them good songs and let them make money was mainly because it was useless to give them the songs.

yes.

The queen Yang Xindong was created by Xu Kai.

But if Yang Xindong didn't have a talent for singing and the potential to become a diva, even if Xu Kai had written dozens of songs, Yang Xindong would never have become a diva.

Let's put it this way, if any woman can be trained to be a queen, why is Yang Xindong the only queen among Xu Kai's many women? To put it bluntly, the path of a singer cannot be faked. If you are good, you are good, and if you are not good, you are not good. If you force someone to be a singer, he will fail sooner or later.

After all, there are not many songs like "Uncommon Characters" that do not require much singing skills and can break new ground.

It is no exaggeration to say that Xu Kai, who owned the entire music library of his previous life, had to rack his brains to find a song that Xu Li could barely sing.

Are there any other songs like "Uncommon Characters"? Yes.

"perturbed".

But the problem is, what kind of voice and singing skills does Teacher Gong Linna have? If she can't sing "Tentative", she can also sing "Flowing Stream".

But Xu Li didn't sing "Uncommon Characters" and nothing he sang was in tune. If he was asked to sing "Tentative", he couldn't even sing along.

Therefore, if Xu Li chooses the path of music, not only will he not succeed, but he might also develop a character that is overambitious but lacks the ability to achieve the desired results.

Some people may argue that if the Xu family can’t sing it themselves, can’t they sell it?

The person who said this definitely doesn't understand the music market.

The reason why one of Xu Kai's songs can sell for tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, is because Xu Kai has a history of achievements, and because Xu Kai created the queen Yang Xindong. Rather than buying songs, people are buying fame and security.

If Xu Kai asked Xu Li to go out and sell songs, even if he gave him "I Do", he would not be able to sell it for more than 20,000 yuan, and he would also have to sell his name as the composer.

Not only will you not make much money, but you will also waste a good song and benefit some villains.

Of course, this was also because although the Xu family was not rich at the time, they were still doing okay - they were not so poor that they needed Xu Kai to sell a song worth tens of millions for only 20,000.

(At that time, the Xu family always told Xu Kai good news but not bad news, so that Xu Kai would think they were living a good life.)

I have gone off topic.

Let’s talk about Xu Li again.

In order to train Xu Li, Xu Kai really did his best.

But Xu Li has always been lukewarm.

Seeing this, Xu Lidu had lost some confidence in becoming a big star and playing the leading role.

But Xu Kai still said to Xu Li with full confidence: "Believe me, I can definitely help you realize your dream."

actually--

In addition to his ideals, Xu Li also wants to prove himself.

The reason why Tang Yun's parents did not agree with Tang Yun marrying Xu Li was not only because Xu Li could not come up with the 500,000 yuan dowry, but also because they simply looked down on Xu Li.

In Tang Yun's father's words, "You are destined to be a supporting actor all your life. If you want to be a big star, even if everyone in the world dies, it will never be your turn!"

Xu Li really wanted to prove to Tang Yun's parents that he was not as bad as they said.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Xu Kai also said to Xu Li: "Xu Li, I can give you any money you want, but I can't give you dignity and respect from others. Moreover, I don't want you to live in my shadow all your life. You are very good, maybe even better than me, but you are not as flamboyant as me. You are an inner talent that has not yet been shown. Believe me, you will shine like a diamond in the future."

With Xu Kai's encouragement, Xu Li regained his confidence for the sake of his own and Tang Yun's dreams, and also to prove himself to others.

At the same time, Xu Kai also told Xu Li about his plans for Xu Li.

That is to first use "Happy Comedian" to make Xu Li famous, and then shoot "Charlotte's Troubles" and let Xu Li take the lead.

Yes.

Xu Kai is not planning to star in "Charlotte's Troubles". To put it another way, even if he does, it will definitely be a small and insignificant cameo role.

Xu Li will be the complete protagonist.

In addition, in order to make "Charlotte's Troubles" well and make Xu Li famous, Xu Kai has even made an agreement with Zhao Laogen, Liu Hua, the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings, and Jay Chou that they will come to make guest appearances in person.

In addition, Xu Kai also invited more than a dozen popular singers of that era to compose the music.

It can be said that in order to film "Charlotte's Troubles" and to promote Xu Li, Xu Kai owes a lot of favors in the music circle.

In addition to favors, Xu Kai also gave some tangible things.

Just like the former queen Na Gege was unwilling to give Xu Kai face by making a guest appearance.

Xu Kai personally flew to Kyoto to invite Na Gege, and in order to make her change her mind, Xu Kai also wrote a song for her.

Xu Li had experienced the time when Xu Kai was preparing to shoot "Ten Miles of Foreign Lands". At that time, the energy and time Xu Kai put in was not even one-tenth of the time he put in to prepare to shoot "Charlotte's Troubles".

Everything Xu Kai did was for Xu Li.

How could Xu Li let Xu Kai down?

Xu Li, who was thinking about his own things in the audience, heard Guo Fu announce: "Now, please welcome Xu Li of Happy Wheat and his team to perform "Today's Happiness."

After listening to this, Xu Li took a deep breath, then walked onto the stage and performed according to what Xu Kai had given him, revealing a wrinkled smiling face and said: "Let me tell you something, my boss has been acting crazy recently. You said I was doing a good job as a waiter, but suddenly he promoted me to lobby manager, hahaha. Before I knew it, I was on the career path, hahaha. Happy! My wife is happy too, um, a new phone, new clothes, and she even bought a fruit basket for me to deliver to my boss. Don't you think she is so sensible? With such a wife to help me, don't you think I will be promoted step by step on the road to happiness?! At this rate, I will be able to ascend to heaven before I'm forty! Are you envious, jealous and hate me? Why am I such a person? I hate myself..."

I had something to do during the day and was busy all day. I really can't update for you today. Sorry!
