Chapter 553: Growing Up


After finishing the activities of the book lover club, Lin Zixuan took Chen Luo back to the hotel.

His activities in London were almost over, and the literary salon was left to attend or not.

Literary salons are a popular way to socialize in the Western literary world, where writers, literary critics, editors of publishing houses, artists, etc., get together for drinks and chats.

It's a small circle of London literature.

Lin Zixuan is not familiar with British writers, has not read their works, and cannot talk about them together, and it will be boring to participate in such activities.

If it weren't for the fact that he still had some documents to deal with, he would have preferred to return to China as soon as possible.

Chen Luo lives in a Chinese family in London, and has been temporarily staying in a hotel for the past two days because he has to accompany Lin Zixuan to run activities.

Tomorrow is Boxing Day, and major stores will have discounts, which is equivalent to a shopping festival, and the British will go on a shopping spree on this day.

Lin Zixuan felt that he should buy some gifts to take home, so he agreed to go to the store with Chen Luo.

He called China and asked Mu Shanshan's opinion.

He doesn't care much about buying gifts, and he usually buys a few souvenirs at the airport store.

The gift is not expensive, but it is a heart, not only a gift for the family, but also relatives and friends, and human relations are inevitable.

Mu Shanshan used to do shows and often went abroad and knew a little about various countries.

After chatting about gifts and life trivia, as well as work.

Mu Shanshan will go to Hangzhou in two days to prepare for the live broadcast of the Voice of China finals, which will bring the show to a successful end.

Except for the Spring Festival Gala of Huaguo TV, there are few variety shows in China that adopt the method of live broadcasting, and live broadcast is prone to problems.

The Spring Festival Gala has a preparation tape, but the Voice of China does not.

The champion of the finals was selected on the spot, and the emotions of the students and the audience were difficult to predict, and no one knew what would happen.

Live streaming is the best publicity stunt, not only to respond to doubts about the show, but also to attract viewers and boost ratings.

Since the Voice of China was broadcast on TV, some media have questioned the fairness of the program, believing that the elimination of the students is the result of the internal decision of the program team and star mentors.

A competition program will inevitably be controversial, and controversy will bring attention and play a role in promoting the program.

It's just that the controversy must be controlled within a certain range, and it can't be a one-sided scolding, then the show will have no reputation.

The live broadcast of the finals can resolve all kinds of doubts about the program to a certain extent.

In the final battle, whoever sings well is seen in the eyes and listened to the ears, it is difficult to fake, and the mentor can't talk nonsense with his eyes open, at least let the audience feel very fair.

There must be no shady and internal determination in the voice of Huaguo.

By the time the competition has arrived, some of the students have privately signed an agreement with the music company, and as soon as the show is over, the two parties will sign a contract.

Of course, the music company wants its favorite students to win the championship, and with the title of champion, it is good to release an album for promotion.

It can be said that the six students who entered the final finals all had the support of music companies behind them, but there was only one overall champion.

The music company uses its own resources to find song rehearsals for the students, build relationships with mentors, and use the media to discredit other students, striving to push their favorite students to the throne of the championship.

Mu Shanshan doesn't care about the music company's small actions in private, as long as it doesn't go too far, it will affect the reputation of the show.

Where there are interests, there will be entanglements, and this kind of thing cannot be stopped.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Zixuan took Chen Luo to the hotel's restaurant for dinner.

Although he had lived in New York for half a year before, Lin Zixuan was still not used to eating Western food, and he felt that it was difficult to swallow when he looked at the thick soup in front of him.

"When we were in New York in '92, we cooked by ourselves, the taste of Chinese restaurants in New York was not right, not to mention Western food, mainly to save money, at that time the crew was too poor, and the rental car was the cheapest."

Through the topic of food, Lin Zixuan talked about the past.

With the past few days of getting along, he and Chen Luo are familiar with each other a lot, and they can talk about some in-depth topics.

"The food in the Chinese restaurant in London is not good, I was not used to it when I first came, but now it is much better."

Chen Luo responded.

"It's not easy to live abroad."

Lin Zixuan said with emotion, "Language and living habits are problems, as well as racial discrimination, we will encounter a lot of difficulties when filming TV series, people will not give you a good job when they see that you are Asian, drag it on for a few days, and some will take the opportunity to blackmail." ” Due to the proximity of the two families, Chen Luo knows Lin Zixuan quite well and knows the past of Lin Zixuan, Feng Xiaogang and others.

When the TV series in New York was broadcast, she was only seven or eight years old, and she was not impressed, but she knew that it was the first domestic drama to be filmed entirely in the United States. was a sensation back then, and Feng Xiaogang rose to prominence with this TV series.

Today, these people have become the leaders of the domestic entertainment industry, Feng Xiaogang has led the development of domestic commercial films, Jiang Wen's literary films have a unique style, and Ge You has become the actor of international film festivals.

There is the shadow of Lin Zixuan behind this.

Listening to Lin Zixuan talk about the hard past and thinking about the current scenery, Chen Luo sighed a little.

Lin Zixuan and Chen Daoming are the same generation and are her elders.

Chen Luo was in awe at first, but after getting acquainted with it, he felt that Lin Zixuan was approachable and did not have the shelf of elders.

Especially in the past few days of interaction with book fans, Lin Zixuan has always maintained a gentle attitude, and he does not seem to be a dominant figure in the domestic entertainment industry at all.

That's because she didn't see what Lin Zixuan looked like when he was working.

As a writer, you can't be serious in the face of book lovers, that will frighten children, as a boss, facing subordinates is a different situation, everyone has a different face.

Just as Lin Zixuan faced Chen Luo and treated her as a junior, he would not let her see her stern side.

Chen Luo also likes the story of Xiaoxue's big adventure.

She still can't understand the blood selling of life and Xu Sanguan, and she is not interested, but her father admires it very much.

Besides, there are not many novels by domestic writers that sell well abroad, and she is very happy to meet book fans with Lin Zixuan.

With these factors, Chen Luo let go a lot in front of Lin Zixuan, was less restrained, and talked about his life at school.

The two were eating and chatting casually.

They were staying in a hotel in the heart of London, and from the restaurant window they could see the street outside.

Crowds of young people frolic in the streets to celebrate, and the atmosphere is enthusiastic.

Chen Luo looked at the young men and women, if it was in the past, she would have participated in it and felt the joyous atmosphere of Christmas, but now she was sitting in the restaurant of a high-end hotel, tasting expensive Western food.

It was a relatively quiet Christmas for her.

The little girl suddenly has the feeling of growing up, this is the world of adults, the life of adults.

She thought it was pretty good. t1706231537:
