Chapter 243 This girl is also quite interesting (please subscribe to support!)
…
Seeing Shi Jiahui and Si Peizhi competing for favor, Xu Kai shook his head, and then deliberately said to Shen Hehe: "Do you have anything to do today?"
Seeing that Xu Kai seemed to be trying to tease Shen Hehe, Shi Jiahui and Si Peizhi immediately stopped their fight and turned to look at Shen Hehe with vigilance.
Shen Hehe was very smart and took a step back: "I came here to accompany Huihui and Zhizhi, you can ask them."
After seeing Shen Hehe's response, Xu Kai suddenly discovered that Shen Hehe, who looked relatively inferior, was actually quite interesting.
Seeing that Shen Hehe clearly didn't want to compete with them, Shi Jiahui smiled at Shen Hehe, and Si Peizhi also showed an expression of a good sister to Shen Hehe.
Then, Shi Jiahui said first: "We have already asked for leave."
"Three days." Si Peizhi added.
"You've invited too many guests. I have a few scenes to shoot tomorrow night, so I have to go back to Hengdian tomorrow."
"Ah~ Why are you so busy? I thought I could spend a few days with you this time!" Shi Jiahui said with a pout.
Without Xu Kai saying anything, Si Peizhi helped him by saying, "Do you think everyone is as idle as you? Brother Yun's current achievements must have been earned by his busy schedule."
Seeing that Shi Jiahui and Si Peizhi were about to quarrel again, Xu Kai interrupted them and said, "If you are not busy, why don't you come with me to Fuyun Club to listen to crosstalk?"
"Okay, okay." Shi Jiahui immediately agreed.
"I go wherever you go," said Si Peizhi.
Shen Hehe asked Xu Kai: "Are you so free? Do you have time to take us to Fuyun Club to listen to crosstalk?"
"I want to talk to Guo Fu about some projects, and take you to listen to some crosstalk by the way." Xu Kai said.
Guo Fu couldn't help but mutter to himself.
As soon as Xu Kai finished speaking, he appeared in person at the airport gate, and then walked straight towards Xu Kai with a few apprentices.
Seeing Guo Fu coming to pick him up in person, Xu Kai smiled and said, "After enduring hardship step by step, you finally saw the flowers in bloom and heard about the colorful lanterns. That night, you, Old Guo, also dreamed of millions of soldiers, right?"
Guo Fu was stunned when he heard this, but then he realized that Xu Kai was congratulating him on being selected as the "Most Influential Cultural Figure" and felt proud of himself. Then he smiled and said, "I was willing to be their dog, but they didn't want me to be their dog. They were afraid that I would bite them, so they had to kick me out. As a result, I became a dragon."
As they were talking, Xu Kai and Guo Fu came together.
"From ancient times to the present, everything is nothing but a play. Why should we take the world seriously? Thinking too much and worrying too much will make your heart tired. The reason why you feel tired is because you have too many things in your mind, which is the same as feeling bloated. Just let everything take its course and everyone has his own destiny." Xu Kai said.
"Respect is mutual. If he respects me, I respect him too. If he doesn't respect me, I respect him too. If he doesn't respect me again, I still respect him. If he still doesn't respect me, I still respect him. If he always disrespects me, I will kill him!" said Guo Fu.
Perhaps sensing that his words were too murderous, Guo Fu explained, "Crosstalk is not an easy profession. If you don't do it well, the audience will scold you. If you do it well, your peers will scold you. I find that the most difficult communication is between peers. You talk to him about art, and he talks to you about morality. You talk to him about morality, and he talks to you about taste. You talk to him about taste, and he talks to you about culture. You talk to him about culture, and he talks to you about Confucius. You talk to him about Confucius, and he talks to you about Laozi. You talk to him about Laozi, and he pretends to be a grandson to you. Elegance is not pretended, but grandsonship is pretended."
Xu Kai also understood that this was the period when Guo Fu was fighting most fiercely with the mainstream crosstalk actors. If he advised him to be more open-minded, it might cause him to be disgusted. After all, he was not him and had not experienced his hardships. He had no right to advise him not to argue with those mainstream crosstalk actors.
Guo Fu took Xu Kai and his group to his Guojiacai restaurant.
The environment here is simple and elegant. Guo Fu's photo is hung on the signboard. The facade is grand and eye-catching. The hall is antique, and the ancient wooden tables and chairs complement the layout of the hall. The word "Guo" can be seen everywhere in the restaurant.
The first floor of the restaurant is the Chinese restaurant, covering an area of 1,500 square meters. Among them, 14 ordinary private rooms are named after famous crosstalk pieces, such as "Eight Auspicious Signs", "Lotus Speech", "Manhan Banquet", "Fu Shou Quan", "Wealth and Honor Picture" and so on.
There are only two deluxe rooms.
Guo Fu invited Xu Kai and others into one of the rooms.
This luxurious private room is a suite equipped with old-school style high-end furniture. The environment is very elegant and it is a great place to talk about things.
Here, Xu Kai took off the baseball cap, big sunglasses and mask he had been wearing.
Guo Fu smiled and said, "It was only after meeting Brother Yu that I realized that handsome can be so specific!"
Facing Guo Fu's praise, Xu Kai smiled and said: "People live their lives with their hearts, not with their looks."
Guo Fu thought Xu Kai was an interesting and accomplished person. If he had not already achieved success and fame, and his status in the entertainment industry was not inferior to his, Guo Fu, Guo Fu would have wanted to take Xu Kai as his apprentice.
Xu Kai was very busy. It can be said that he squeezed out three days from his busy schedule to meet Zhao Laogen and Guo Fu. And Guo Fu, who was running forward at full speed, was also busy with many things.
So, after a few simple greetings, the two started talking about "Happy Comedians".
Compared with Zhao Laogen who has a profound foundation, although Guo Fu has now entered the fast lane, he is still a little behind.
Moreover, people's ambitions will change with their positions - after getting out of the initial difficulties, Guo Fu wanted to bring Fu Yun Club to TV and even to movies, because this would lead him to true success.
In other words, Xu Kai and Guo Fu hit it off immediately when it came to working on "Happy Comedians".
This kind of thing that both people want to accomplish is easy to discuss.
It can be said that the two of them finalized the matter in no time.
However, there are still some disturbances.
When talking about the host of "Happy Comedian", Guo Fu has been saying that the host must be cautious and that you have to find someone with quick on-the-spot reaction ability and who can take on the jokes, otherwise the effect may not be good.
In short, what Guo Fu meant was that he should invite me to be the host.
Guo Fu is a smart man, he understands too well. Three parts ability, six parts luck and one part support from noble people will give you a platform. If you replace Zhang San, it will be Zhang San, if you replace Li Si, it will be Li Si. The reason why Li Si failed is because he was not allowed to take the opportunity. If he took the opportunity, he might be better than Zhang San. So, opportunity is very important to a person!
Guo Fu, who grew up in adversity, understands this truth very well. Therefore, although he does not have many resources at present, he subconsciously wants to seize the resource of "Happy Comedian".
All Xu Kai wanted was a platform to gather comedians and a platform for Xu Li to showcase himself and gain fame.
Therefore, as long as these goals can be achieved, Xu Kai is not interested in mastering this platform, nor does he have the time to manage this platform all the time.
However, then again, if Guo Fu wants to take over now, that is definitely impossible. Xu Kai has spent so much effort to build this platform, he must get enough benefits first before he can hand it over to others.
Of course, Guo Fu was just instinctively wanting to reach out first, not really wanting to snatch Xu Kai's platform which had not yet been fully built.
Therefore, the two people's goals do not conflict.
After Xu Kai agreed to let Guo Fulai be the host of "Happy Comedian", Guo Fu became more enthusiastic about Xu Kai.
After the meal, Guo Fu introduced Xu Kai to a number of important figures in Fuyun Society, such as his partner Yu Lu, his junior fellow apprentice Li Shou, several veteran crosstalk masters, and several of his apprentices.
After that, Guo Fu invited Xu Kai to go upstairs to listen to crosstalk.
When it was the turn of Guo Fu's third apprentice to perform, the audience burst into extremely warm applause.
From this it is not difficult to see that Guo Fu’s third apprentice is very popular now.
Guo Fu said to Xu Kai, "He has a solid foundation, is very talented, and is willing to work hard. I have taken him with me wherever I go in the past few years. He has performed in various major occasions and has a wealth of performance experience. So I want him to represent our Fuyun Club in the competition. What do you think?"
Guo Fu actually had selfish motives in doing this.
Firstly, Guo Fu liked his third apprentice very much and thought that he was good in every way. The key point was that his third apprentice had lived in his house at a very young age, eating and sleeping with them. He was his young apprentice and was deeply loved by him.
Secondly, Guo Fu has now begun to intentionally elevate the status of his apprentices, hoping to use this to make his own status even higher and prevent others from shaking his position as the leader. In this case, Guo Fu must of course give the opportunity to his closest apprentice.
Xu Kai looked at Guo Fu's third apprentice for a while and said nothing.
After a while, a fair-skinned fat man with small eyes and a very fat man came on stage.
Xu Kai looked at it for a while, and then said to Guo Fu: "I think this pair might be better."
