The charity banquet was held at Sheng Hui Hotel. The whole place was booked tonight. Luxury cars were parked downstairs and the red carpet was laid out. The organizer was the Antai Foundation.
This donation was organized by the celebrities and the foundation.
The singer Xu Jiao accompanied Qin Ze to the banquet. A big shot must have a pretty vase beside him. His sister wasn't here and Ye Liu and the other movie stars were out filming, so they couldn't make it back in time.
8: 30 pm. The lights were bright.
Xu Jiao was dressed to the nines. Her long dress touched the floor and her collar was very low, revealing her deep cleavage. Qin Ze guessed that she was wearing a special bra inside, the kind that even men could get a cleavage.
With Xu Jiao's size, he estimated that she couldn't squeeze out such a deep cleavage even if she tried.
Under the guidance of the staff, they took the elevator and arrived at the venue.
The venue was originally the hotel's revolving restaurant, but now it was changed to the venue of the charity banquet.
In the Shanghai entertainment industry, Qin Ze was probably the most dazzling one. His fame and status were far above the other celebrities present.
The moment he appeared, both familiar and unfamiliar celebrities greeted him. Even Xu Jiao received a lot of attention.
"CEO Qin, you're really dazzling," Xu Jiao said.
As a B-list singer, it was hard for her to receive such attention at a banquet where so many celebrities gathered. Everyone was quite famous.
Because it wasn't a public event, there weren't many people present, so they invited a few reporters with good reputations.
They took photos of Qin Ze like crazy.
Qin Ze and Xu Jiao sat down. His table was full of A-list and B-list celebrities from Tianfang and Star Art. The outside world knew that he had a good relationship with Star Art's CEO, Huang Yicong.
Interestingly, Xu Lu, who had a few fights with her sister when she was at Star Art, was also present.
This woman in her thirties had a mature charm. She was even prettier than Xu Jiao. It was because of her good looks that she could switch to the film and television industry when she reached a bottleneck in her singing career.
"Yo, Miss Xu, long time no see. How come you don't have any works recently?" Qin Ze was full of smiles.
"How can I have CEO Qin's talent?" Xu Lu forced a smile.
She gritted her teeth secretly. Qin Ze was clearly mocking her.
After Kang Shian left, her resources at Star Art didn't get suppressed, but she wasn't as successful as before. In the past year, he had released an album and filmed two TV series, but none of them were popular.
On the other hand, Qin Bao Bao and her brother were like the sun in the sky. Qin Bao Bao even went to Guangdong to hold a concert a few days ago.
Every time Xu Lu thought about the circumstances of both parties, half of her pillow would be wet with tears.
He had casually stepped on a little vixen with potential, and in just a year's time, she had already achieved meteoric success.
Even karma wouldn't come so quickly.
"I have a few good scripts on hand. Are you interested in joining us?" Qin Ze took a sip of wine and said casually.
Xu Lu's eyes were filled with gentleness and joy. "Thank … Thank you, President Qin …"
Qin Ze laughed, "I'm just kidding. How could I have a script? I just finished shooting a movie."
Xu Lu was speechless.
It was infuriating.
Looking at Xu Lu's stiff smile, Qin Ze's expression didn't change. He even felt a little smug. I like it when you hate me so much but can't do anything to me.
This woman bullied his sister back then and even wanted to punch a monster to death. She didn't give me any face at all.
It wasn't that he and his sister were soft-hearted when dealing with Xu Lu, but Xu Lu was an A-lister and an artist of Star Art, so they didn't find trouble with her.
They couldn't force Huang Yicong to freeze her either. It wasn't realistic.
Xu Lu was on Tianfang Entertainment's blacklist. She knew this too, so when she heard Qin Ze say that he had a script for her, she was pleasantly surprised.
The charity banquet soon began. The male and female hosts were both from the entertainment industry. They were professional hosts of a TV station.
The male host said, "Hello, guests. I'm very happy to be able to gather with everyone at this charity banquet …"
The female host said, "When I first arrived, I asked Teacher Xiang how much do you intend to donate? Teacher Xiang told me five million. I was shocked and gave a thumbs up. Look, Teacher Xiang is so understanding. Guess what Teacher Xiang said next? "
The male host said, "Don't say it, don't say it."
The female host said, "He said five million, that's right. I won't charge an appearance fee this time."
The audience roared with laughter.
The male host said, "To show our love, the amount isn't important. What's important is that we have the heart to do charity."
Following that, every artist had to go on stage to donate. The singer would sing a song, and the movie star would give a few words of gratitude or a joke.
Only a charity banquet could invite so many celebrities without spending money.
Huang Yuteng and Xu Jiao went on stage together. They sang the recently popular song "Let the Whole World Know I Love You."
"This song is really popular. It's enough for them to eat for a few years."
"Yeah, Qin Ze's song. How can it not be popular?"
"It's a pity that he can't book a song. He doesn't sell it and only writes songs for his own company's singers."
"Their condition for joining Tianfang is that Qin Ze writes a few songs for them every year. I can't help but be envious."
The artists discussed animatedly.
Xu Lu secretly glanced at Qin Ze. Back then, if she had turned from an enemy to a friend with Qin Bao Bao earlier and tried to rope her in, the situation might have been completely different.
However, this was not an emotion of regret, but an emotion of anger.
Damn it, why was Qin Ze so amazing?
In many plots, the supporting characters should be extremely regretful when the main character pretended to be pretentious. Actually, that wasn't the case. The supporting characters would only hate the main character more.
Huang Yuteng and Xu Jiao returned to their seats and said, "CEO Qin, it's your turn next."
According to the order, the next person was Qin Ze beside them.
The host thanked Huang Yuteng and Xu Jiao for their 500,000 donation as usual, then said, "Next, let's welcome Qin Ze on stage."
Under everyone's gaze, Qin Ze went on stage and took the microphone. "This time, my sister Qin Bao is holding a concert in Guangdong and can't make it. She entrusted me to donate on her behalf."
He paused when he said this. The male host continued, "The two Qins' donations are … one million each."
Applause sounded.
One million wasn't a lot. Many people even thought that with Qin Ze and Qin Bao's financial resources, it was more like two million each.
Qin Ze suddenly said, "Next is the singing segment, right? I have something to do here. I recently wrote a new song, and it just so happens that it's in time for this charity gala. I'm planning to donate this song … Host, can we auction it live?"
The crowd suddenly started discussing and whispering. Especially the singers, who were instantly excited.
The female singer's eyes sparkled as she looked at the stage with anticipation and excitement.
Good songs were hard to come by.
Qin Ze's songs were even harder to come by.
In the entertainment industry and the singing circle, Qin Ze was recognized as a golden ladder. Singers could climb up the ladder to the sky by following this ladder.
"Yes, of course." The male host was very surprised. Qin Ze didn't say anything beforehand.
"But there's no accompaniment …" The female host shook her head and laughed. "CEO Qin must have brought it."
Qin Ze nodded and took out a USB flash drive from his pocket and handed it to her.
"Wait a moment." The female host walked backstage.
Xu Jiao smiled and said, "Yuteng, are we buying it?"
Huang Yuteng rolled his eyes. "Why should we buy it? We don't lack songs."
"Haha, that's true."
A moment later, the music started.
"The dark sea is covered with white moonlight."
"I'm lost in thought, I don't know where the heart of the sea is flying."
.....
Many singers nodded to themselves. Yes, it wasn't a catchy song.
They were all professionals. They could tell how a song was from the beginning. They could at least conclude two points: Qin Ze's singing was as impeccable as always, and the accompaniment was actually average so far.
The beginning of this song was quite good. It wasn't a catchy song, but it wasn't as amazing as "Blue and White Porcelain," "Exaggerated," and "Fairy Tale."
"The secret I've hidden."
"In the early morning of every day."
"Warmed into coffee, brought to you quietly."
"If I'm willing, with a black pencil."
"Draw a silent stage play."
"No matter how bright the lights are, I can still hug you."
Scalp tingling. Many people really felt their scalps tingling.
Previously, they listened to the song with an appreciative attitude. Now, the song was suddenly running with an appreciative attitude.
Without any warning, their emotions were immersed in the song.
"If I'm willing, singing a hoarse song in the corner."
"No matter how loud it is, it's still for you."
"Please listen with your heart, don't speak."
Qin Ze closed his eyes and pressed a finger to his lips.
Xu Jiao shuddered violently, her hair standing on end.
She glanced at the wide-eyed Huang Yuteng beside her and whispered, "Hey, you said you don't want it, right?"
