"Brother Sheng!"
Seeing Liu Gangsheng, Lu Chen and Chen Fei 'er stood up and greeted him together.
Liu Gangsheng laughed and opened his arms to give Lu Chen a strong hug. "Long time no see!"
They hadn't seen each other for a long time. The last time they met was at the Hong Kong premiere of "A Chinese Ghost Story", but they had been in touch with each other and their friendship was even deeper.
Liu Gangsheng's appreciation for Lu Chen was really known by everyone in Hong Kong!
Not long ago, Lu Chen had an accident in the United States. Liu Gangsheng called him as soon as he knew the news and asked his friend in the United States to take care of him. Although he didn't help much in the end, Lu Chen remembered this favor.
Liu Gangsheng didn't come alone today. There was a gentle and beautiful woman beside him.
"This is my wife, Lu Jingyi …"
Liu Gangsheng took the initiative to introduce to Lu Chen and Chen Fei, "She heard that you two are here. She also wants to meet the male and female leads of 'Autumn in My Heart'."
Lu Chen was a little surprised and quickly said politely, "Hello, sister-in-law. It's the first time we meet. Please take care of me."
Liu Gangsheng's wife was a legendary figure in the circle.
Lu Chen knew her, but it was the first time he saw her in person.
Lu Jingyi was the runner-up of Miss Hong Kong in 1995. Her father was a lawyer in Xiangjiang and her mother was a doctor. Her family conditions were excellent, but she chose to enter the entertainment industry after graduating from college.
After winning the runner-up of Miss Hong Kong, she quickly signed a contract with a management company and released her first solo album. Then she shot many movies and TV series in succession. Her career as a star could be said to be smooth.
However, just as she became popular, she suddenly quit the entertainment industry and disappeared from the sight of her fans. There was very little news about her in the media.
In fact, the reason why this beautiful and intelligent Miss Hong Kong quit the entertainment industry was that she met and fell in love with Liu Gangsheng during a cooperation, and resolutely retired behind the scenes.
Due to some special reasons, Liu Gangsheng had never officially announced Lu Jingyi's identity. However, the two of them had been together for twenty years. Lu Jingyi supported Liu Gangsheng wholeheartedly, and the latter gave his wife the greatest protection.
Now that Liu Gangsheng was getting older, he was also slowly revealing his family situation to the public. Everyone believed that this imitating couple in the entertainment industry would eventually stand in front of everyone openly.
Lu Chen had read stories about Lu Jingyi on the internet. He knew that she had raised a son and a daughter for Liu Gangsheng. Although she was unknown, she was willing to endure hardship. She was truly an admirable woman.
"Hello, Lu Chen, nice to meet you. You're even more handsome than on TV!" Lu Jingyi smiled.
Liu Gangsheng was jealous. "He's not as handsome as me!"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
After laughing, Lu Jingyi's gaze fell on Chen Fei 'er.
She held Chen Fei 'er's hand and exclaimed, "Miss Chen is really beautiful. Well, you're even more beautiful in real life than on TV!"
Chen Fei 'er smiled and said, "Sister Jingyi, you flatter me. I think you're really beautiful!"
Lu Jingyi shook her head. "I'm old …"
Although they were more than ten years apart and it was the first time they met, Lu Jingyi and Chen Fei 'er felt like old friends at first sight. After sitting down, they chatted intimately.
Together with Shi Fang, the topics between the three women were almost endless.
Lu Jingyi was actually a fan of Lu Chen and Chen Fei 'er. Not only had she watched the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" starring the two, but she also watched the two TV series "Autumn in My Heart" and "Full House of Romance". She was also watching "You from the Star"!
Although Mrs. Liu was in her forties this year, she was no different from an ordinary fan when it came to talking about TV series.
Meanwhile, Liu Gangsheng pulled Lu Chen aside and told him about the "Xiangjiang New Voice" that had been in preparation for more than half a year.
"Xiangjiang New Voice" was a singing talent show conceived by Lu Chen and many people in the Xiangjiang circle, including Liu Gangsheng, when he was developing in Xiangjiang last year. The aim was to encourage and support Xiangjiang's local original music, so that Cantonese songs could regain their glory!
The show was proposed by Madam Jin, and the name was thought up by Lu Chen, but the real promoter was Liu Gangsheng.
It was precisely because of his active participation that ATV and Xiangjiang Satellite TV were competing for the production and broadcasting rights of the show. After a fierce competition, Xiangjiang Satellite TV had the last laugh.
The higher-ups of the satellite TV attached great importance to the talent show. They came up with three program plans and did a lot of market research. Everything was basically ready now, except for the final push.
Originally, "Xiangjiang New Voice" was planning to start the auditions in September. However, the appearance of "The Voice of China" and its huge influence made the satellite TV revise their plans.
Liu Gangsheng said frankly to Lu Chen, "Your" The Voice of China "is too outstanding. The people at the satellite TV are very stressed. My goal is to make" Xiangjiang New Voice "the most influential music show in the history of Xiangjiang. They have revised the program plan at least a dozen times …"
As he said that, Liu Gangsheng laughed, "So, you must participate in this show."
Lu Chen readily agreed, "No problem!"
He was so straightforward that Liu Gangsheng felt a little embarrassed, "You don't have to agree so quickly. Let's talk about when you have a schedule first. Will it be available in March or April next year?"
As a Xiangjiang Heavenly King, Liu Gangsheng knew very well that with Lu Chen's current popularity in the country, his schedule would definitely be full. Under normal circumstances, not to mention this year, it would be normal for him to have a full schedule next year.
He really hoped that Lu Chen would join, but he would definitely not disrupt Lu Chen's work plans.
Lu Chen thought about it and replied, "It should be fine in April. I'll confirm the time when I go back."
"You from the Star" was coming to an end. Next, he would be filming "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer". It would definitely be finished by April next year. Otherwise, even if it was post-production, it would not be able to make it in time for the summer.
Liu Gangsheng was very happy, "That's really great. Xiangjiang is really lacking in original music now. I hope that through this show, those outstanding talents can stand out!"
Lu Chen nodded. Seeing the Heavenly King's happy look, he was quite touched.
At Liu Gangsheng's level, fame and fortune were fleeting. What he really had was the passion and sincerity for his career. He was willing to do his best to repay society and the industry.
This true love was worth learning from for Lu Chen!
