Chapter 428 Celebration Banquet

Shengshi Entertainment's celebration banquet was held at the renowned Wei Zi Resort Hotel in Baogang. Huang Yuliang had his company staff there several days in advance to set up the venue. With guests from all walks of life invited, the venue's decor required to be of the highest quality and style.

The hotel owner Wansheng learned that the guests were either rich or noble, and for the sake of his old friend Hu Xiaoxiao, he decided to personally follow up on the layout and supervise the dishes.

Shengshi’s celebration banquet seemed to be an invitation from the entertainment industry and was just a banquet for a small circle, but in fact, Shengshi’s influence and the energy of the two bosses had already broken out of this circle and had a place in the entire Baogang.

Therefore, on this day, almost all people from all walks of life who received invitations from Shengshi came to Wei Zi Resort Hotel to attend this grand banquet.

The number and attendance of the guests attracted the attention of all the media present today.

Shengshi revealed that several major announcements would be made at the celebration banquet and invited several media outlets. Of course, these outlets were serious media outlets, not the kind that peddled entertainment gossip. Naturally, paparazzi were watching such a major event, but they couldn't even get through the hotel's main entrance. To ensure the success of this banquet, Wansheng had beefed up the hotel's security, deploying layers of defense.

Wansheng himself was a frequent target of paparazzi, his romantic affairs constantly drawing their attention and making several headlines. It could be said that Wansheng had been battling the paparazzi for over a decade, possessing extensive experience in dealing with and preventing them. Under his vigilance, the paparazzi were unable to obtain a single photo or piece of information.

The banquet hall was as magnificent as a palace. Under the huge crystal chandelier, celebrities and elites from all walks of life dressed in gorgeous clothes were chatting in low voices and clinking glasses.

In a lively atmosphere, Huang Yuliang walked to the podium surrounded by flowers.

For today's banquet, Huang Yuliang specially put on a newly tailor-made black suit. The finely crafted suit made him look tall and straight and with broad shoulders.

He wore a pair of new glasses on his tall nose, his hair was combed back meticulously. Standing on the podium, he had a tall figure and a gentle temperament.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen."

Huang Yuliang's deep and magnetic voice came from the microphone, attracting the attention of the guests.

The man at the podium appeared gentle and mild-mannered, but none of the guests dared to mistake him for a good-tempered man. Especially after he and the Yi Hai Gang had divided up two-thirds of the Changxing Society's power, no one dared to underestimate this seemingly gentle, yet in reality ruthless man.

"Thank you all for taking the time to attend today's banquet. On behalf of all the employees of Shengshi Company, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to you..."

Huang Yuliang delivered his speech calmly and confidently, first reviewing the company's development, then talking about the current achievements, and then looking forward to the company's future.

Finally, the company's key contributor, Hu Xiaoxiao, was highlighted, along with the purpose of the celebration banquet. Huang Yuliang presented the achievements of "The Queen of Treasures 2," one stat after another. Even though the guests already knew the film was a success, they were still stunned by its remarkable performance and achievements.

After finishing his long speech, Huang Yuliang cast his gaze towards the guests and said, "Now, please welcome the stars of today's banquet—the entire cast of 'The Queen of Hong Kong 2'!"

As Huang Yuliang finished speaking, everyone followed Huang Yuliang's gaze and saw that the door of the banquet hall, the gorgeous carved door, was closed.

Fireworks and ribbons bloomed in the air and fell beautifully. Under the gaze of all the guests, the door of the banquet hall was slowly pushed open.

The actors of "The Queen of Love 2" dressed in gorgeous clothes and walked in from outside in an orderly manner.

Hu Xiaoxiao, who was walking in the front, was wearing a red dress and had a strong aura. Her long black hair was tied up with diamond hair accessories, and her heavy makeup made her look like a queen.

She walked in the center, leading a group of actors in gorgeous costumes. Her steps were firm and rhythmic, and the background music also sounded appropriately. It was the exclusive music for the appearance of the female heroes in the film.

Beautiful high heels stepped on the red carpet, and countless crystal chandeliers in the banquet hall twinkled like stars. Hu Xiaoxiao, who was walking in the front, was the most dazzling sun, stealing the shine from the stars.

I don't know who clapped first, but the applause continued like a tide and lasted for a long time.

Amidst the applause and the gaze of the crowd, Hu Xiaoxiao enjoyed the honor very much and walked to the podium with a smile on his face.

Huang Yuliang had walked to the front and stretched out his hand.

Hu Xiaoxiao held his hand and walked up to the podium, looking at the passionate gazes below and listening to the endless applause in his ears.

Her eyes swept across the familiar faces and then looked at the magnificent banquet hall. Hu Xiaoxiao remembered that this hotel was where she participated in the Miss Hong Kong semi-finals when she first came to Baogang.

At that time, the venue for the semi-finals was on a lower-grade floor downstairs, and they were not yet qualified to enter this magnificent banquet hall. Unexpectedly, several years later, she would be able to stand in this most magnificent banquet hall, become the protagonist of the banquet, and have so many celebrities come to support her.

After Huang Yuliang adjusted the height of the microphone for Hu Xiaoxiao, he made a gesture to invite her to speak.

Walking to the microphone, Hu Xiaoxiao laughed and said, "I was very nervous at first, but when I saw that everyone standing in the audience was familiar to me, we had known each other for so many years and were so familiar with each other, I couldn't be nervous anymore."

Seeing the guests in the audience all laughing in a friendly manner, Hu Xiaoxiao straightened his face and said, "It is thanks to the support of so many friends over the years that I have been able to reach where I am today. I am so grateful that I cannot express it in words. I have always believed that actions speak louder than words, so how can I repay everyone's support and the love that so many people have shown me? It is more practical to express it directly with actions."

At this point, Hu Xiaoxiao glanced at Huang Yuliang, who nodded. Then, Hu Xiaoxiao's gaze fell on the guests below the stage again, and he solemnly announced: "After Mr. Huang and I decided, all the box office revenue of "Baogang Superwoman 2" will be donated!"

The announcement of this news made the guests present exclaim in surprise. Even though these guests were used to the world, it was rare to see someone so bold as to donate tens of millions of dollars in income.

Even the staff of Shengshi and the other actors of "Baogang Super Queen 2" were shocked by the news. They had not known about this before and were as shocked as the guests at the scene.

The media people who attended the meeting excitedly picked up their cameras and kept pressing the shutter button at Hu Xiaoxiao on the podium and Huang Yuliang next to him.
