Then the so-called Freestyle battle begins, which is basically an impromptu rhyming contest where each person says a few rhyming lines on the spot, similar to the ancient Chinese poetry. However, these lines are mostly just catchy rhymes and don't have the same artistic conception as poetry. As long as you hit two words, you can also tease your opponent.
After listening to two parts, Shen Fang was reminded of Wu Qian's "Can You Freestyle?" and "Big Bowl Wide Noodles" songs. His singing was ear-piercing.
After finishing the last sip of wine, Shen Fangjiu returned to the private room. Seeing that Shen Fangjiu had left, the others also returned to their private rooms.
Barbie Hsu looked at Shen Fang: "President Shen, don't you like it?"
Shen Fang smiled and said, "I think it's too childish. I don't like this type of art performance. Besides, do you think what these people are doing is cool?"
"I think it's cool, a lot of people think they're cool."
Shen Lanlan curled her lip and said, "They're all just pretending to be cool. In the eyes of important people, they're not even as good as clowns."
Shen Fang burst into laughter: "What, you don't like Lanlan either?"
Shen Lanlan shook her head: "I can't appreciate it. What kind of singing is this? He, tui."
"It's not that there isn't good hip-hop music. I also quite like Eminem's songs. Hip-hop music has only been in China for a few years and still needs a lot of development and practice. In my opinion, they are taking a wrong turn right now. The lyrics and some of the ideas they sing are just corrupting minors. This kind of music may have a place in the United States, but it has no place in China."
Yang Dengkui smiled: "President Shen, you really don't seem like a young person at all. Your style of doing things and your way of doing things are like those of a seasoned veteran. The things you say are very profound and make people think deeply."
Shen Fang smiled and said, "President Yang, you flatter me. Maybe I'm a bit old-fashioned. Besides making some money and doing some practical things, I'm pretty boring. I often can't communicate with young people these days."
"That's why you've been so successful. You're on the right path, while they don't know where the path is. They won't think about it or do it. Even if many people know that doing this might lead to success, they'll take it one day at a time for various reasons. People who do great things are naturally different from others."
Shen Fang smiled and said, "The reason is nothing more than fear of failure, fear of losing their current life. They become lazy, tired, weary, or they just keep their heads down and do nothing but busywork. There are many people like this."
Gwei Lun-mei looked at Shen Fang: "So what's your secret to success?"
Shen Fang smiled: "Want to know?"
Gwei Lun-mei nodded. She was feeling lost about her career. Although she had debuted and acted in movies, she didn't know how to plan her life afterward.
"Have a drink, and I'll tell you."
Upon hearing this, Gwei Lun-mei picked up her wine glass and downed it.
"Speak."
Shen Fang smiled and said, "No matter what you do, you have to be prepared for the long term. You can't give up just because things aren't going well in your field. You need to persevere in everything you do. First of all, your own qualities are top-notch in the entertainment industry. You have a great temperament and it's easy for you to stand out. Now that you're in the entertainment industry, the most important thing is to find your own niche, package your image well, teach your friends, and hone your acting skills. You have to be strong yourself to succeed. Keep improving yourself. Besides these things, you also need to find your benefactor. The difference between having no one to help you and having someone to help you in this industry is like heaven and earth."
After listening, Gwei Lun-mei pursed her lips and said, "So after all that talk, you still need someone to flatter you?"
Shen Fang smiled and said, "You've grasped the key point. First, you need someone to promote you. Of course, you also need to have good personal qualities. Otherwise, they might make you popular for a while, but what will happen later? If you have no acting skills, no expertise, and you don't break out of your niche, even if a sugar daddy comes along, you won't have the ability to stay popular. There are only a few top-tier artists. You can't reach that position just by having a sugar daddy. Besides, there are many actors who, even without anyone promoting them, have earned everyone's recognition through their own abilities."
The young man nodded and said, "Mr. Shen is absolutely right. Being famous is nothing special; it's just a fleeting moment in this industry. The most important thing is to have real talent."
So what do you think of me?
Shen Fang was bewildered: "Huh? What do you mean, how?"
Gwei Lun-mei pouted: "Are you willing to flatter me?"
Shen Fang stared at Gui Lunmei, completely bewildered. This was the first time she had ever met such a direct woman. She wondered if Gui Lunmei was genuinely naive or just innocently cute.
A cold glint flashed in Barbie Hsu's eyes as she stood to the side.
Shen Fang approached Gwei Lun-mei with a wicked grin.
Why should I praise you?
"Because I'm pretty, isn't that what you said?"
Shen Fang smiled and said, "She is beautiful, but promoting someone costs money and resources. Why should I help you?"
Upon hearing this, Gwei Lun-mei was momentarily speechless.
"Then how can you flatter me?"
Shen Fang looked at Gwei Lun-mei with a wicked grin.
"If you want me to flatter you, come to my room tonight and we'll have a friendly competition."
Upon hearing this, Gwei Lun-mei stared intently at Shen Fang.
"What do you want to do?!"
Shen Fang grinned mischievously: "Didn't you tell me to promote you? Isn't this the rule in the industry? You provide your body, and I'll provide the money."
"You!!! You shameless!!!"
Shen Fang was speechless: "Just because you're in the industry doesn't mean you didn't know about this. Isn't this perfectly normal?"
