Chapter 441 Recruiting Bodyguards (Part [-])
It is said that the celebration banquet has officially begun.

When the music sounded, Chen Xiaotang, who has always cherished his voice like gold, took the initiative to sing a song from his latest solo album, which is the song "HIGH Song" that HIGH turned the audience; as contracted singers, Liu Dehua and Zhou Huimin also performed on stage one by one. It can be regarded as gaining a little exposure and paving the way for future singers.

After a series of procedures, many journalists were hooked - there were good wine and delicious food, as well as Chen Xiaotang's lingering and moving love songs, and singing by beauties, all "colorful and fragrant".
But they are still looking forward to the press conference after the reception.Sure enough, with the completion of a series of procedures, the master of ceremonies excitedly announced that it would be over, followed by the press conference.
The press conference was arranged in a hall next to the auditorium. All the reporters rushed over, found their seats and sat down, waiting for the reception to start.
With Chen Xiaotang and others seated, the press conference officially began.
"Mr. Chen, Xu Guanjie, the 'God of Songs' recently expressed publicly that he appreciates your album and likes your songs very much. What do you think?" After the host's roll call, a reporter stood up impatiently.
The first reporter was basically arranged by the organizer of the reception, so the questions asked were also very pleasant.These are all reporters from the entertainment industry, so they are naturally very familiar with this situation, so they are not in a hurry to ask questions so quickly.
Chen Xiaotang immediately smiled and said: "Actually, I am also a fan of the song god SAM. I feel extremely honored to be praised by my idol. I think I will work harder and hope that more people will praise me."
Chen Xiaotang's answer was quite satisfactory, and people were quite satisfied with this answer.
"Mr. Chen, there is a song in your new album that is a love song sung with Ms. Zhou Huimin. This time, Ms. Zhou also attended your celebration party. Excuse me, are you dating her?" After the arranged simple questions, I finally started to face these reporters.Sure enough, the first reporter to stand up asked a question that made everyone on stage frown. There was something wrong with the question tonight. Why did it start with a relationship question?
Chen Xiaotang glanced at Zhou Huimin, who had red cheeks, smiled lightly, and said, "Miss Zhou is a signed artist of our company, she can be regarded as my younger sister. It is my honor that she can participate in my celebration party. She is a very outstanding artist , I think, the song we sang together has already illustrated this point. As for me and her, I think it’s like this glass of water.”
He pointed to a glass of water on the table, which was extremely clear and clean.The reporters in the audience understood and laughed.However, several people on the stage were a little uneasy. It was obvious that what happened tonight was very unusual.
Sure enough, the next question made Huang Zhan and the others look very ugly, and also made Chen Xiaotang dumbfounded: "Mr. Chen, it is said that you are dating Miss Mei Yanfang, the queen of the music scene. Sister Mei went to your house a few days ago. ,Is it real?"
Things are getting serious, this is what Huang Zhan, Gu Jiahui and Fatty Wang Jing think; is it true or not?This is Zhou Huimin's idea; wow, gossip, this is Liu Dehua's idea; things have been exposed?This is Chen Xiaotang's idea.
In an instant, the atmosphere became quiet.

"Mr. Chen Xiaotang, it is said that you and Mei Yanfang are dating. May I ask if this is true?" Seeing Chen Xiaotang's blank expression, the reporter who asked the question couldn't wait to ask again.
The other reporters were also whispering, some were discussing Chen Xiaotang's expression, some were discussing how to ask the next question, and some were directly thinking about how to write the report.
Huang Zhan glanced at the host indifferently, what are you doing?Is it embarrassing not to see the main character?The host felt anxious, coughed quickly, and said, "Excuse me, this question, Mr. Chen"
"Let me answer this question." Before he finished speaking, Chen Xiaotang said lightly, "I really want to date a beauty like Sister Mei."
This answer is specious, saying yes, people just say they really want it, after all, Mei Yanfang's level of beauty, everyone wants it, and it seems wrong to say no, he thinks, if Mei Yanfang wants it too, then the two of them won't
"Then it is said that someone once saw that Sister Mei visited your house to check on you. Is it true?" Another reporter stood up reluctantly and asked.
"Actually, Sister Mei and I are very good friends in private, and it's normal for friends to visit each other." Chen Xiaotang frowned, already clearly feeling that someone was pushing behind him this time, wanting to force He publicly "admitted" that he had a "relationship" with Mei Yanfang.
Who is the one?To be able to know that Mei Yanfang was looking for him at the first time, it must be someone close to him, what is the other party going to do?In such a limelight, to do such a thing, do you want to "borrow the east wind"...

The reporter below wanted to ask again, but Huang Zhan had already glared at the host angrily.Facing the anger of the big yellow old man, the poor host had no choice but to directly announce the end of this press conference.
Back in the lounge, Chen Xiaotang rubbed the center of his brows tiredly, closed his eyes, only feeling sore all over.Huang Zhan and Gu Jiahui opened the door and walked in. Seeing his appearance, they also asked with some distress: "Are you tired?"
Chen Xiaotang let out a "huh", and then saw the old man Huang throwing himself a cigarette.Then Huang Zhan and Gu Jiahui started smoking in silence.

When Chen Xiaotang saw the two of them like this, he laughed himself first, and said: "Actually, it's normal. Being a star, especially a star that others pay attention to, such things will happen a lot. I'm just not used to it, so I feel that Tired. Besides, this kind of thing is actually a muddy water that is getting darker and darker. If you don't worry about it, it will naturally calm down."
Huang Zhan said worriedly: "That's what I said, but such things will always hurt your image. There will also be obstacles to your development."
Chen Xiaotang said lightly: "My development has never been arranged by others. I don't care what others think. As for the fans, as long as they give them good music and movies and TV series, they will be very tolerant of such things."
"As for those reporters, hmph, let them discuss. Anyway, I don't care about promoting things for me for free." Chen Xiaotang slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and said disdainfully.
Huang Zhan flicked the cigarette ash subtly, then turned around and found a seat to sit down, then greeted Gu Jiahui, and said: "I always feel that this matter is very strange, as if someone is deliberately holding on to this matter. I said, Lao Gu, are you?"
Chen Xiaotang sighed, and said: "Actually, strictly speaking, I should be blamed for this matter. I think the whole matter should have started with Mei Yanfang and I communicating in private. In fact, Sister Mei may also know now, but There's nothing we can do with what I'm doing right now. That's it."
As soon as the words were finished, the bell rang in a hurry. Chen Xiaotang took the big brother that he had put on the table next to him, took a look, and said with a smile: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here."
The call was from Mei Yanfang, she knew the whole thing immediately and realized what was going on, so she immediately called Chen Xiaotang.
"A Tang, I'm sorry about this matter." Mei Yanfang said directly at the beginning. "I've already found out that this matter was done by my agent. I'm going to release an album recently, but you've lost all my popularity, so he wants to use the gossip hype to help me increase my popularity rate, and then take the opportunity Selling my record... Ah Tang, I, I'm really sorry for you!"

Chen Xiaotang was stunned for a moment, and sure enough, he guessed right, so he said lightly: "It's nothing, Sister Mei, in fact, your manager also cares about you. Don't worry, I won't take it seriously."
"Well, I've made you feel wronged, are you okay?" Mei Yanfang asked with concern.
"Fortunately, in fact, this incident didn't have much impact on me, but you..." Chen Xiaotang suddenly remembered something, and replied casually.
Mei Yanfang over there was silent for a while, and then quietly said: "I know, you are the best. I'm really sorry, let's do this, after this matter is over, I"
Chen Xiaotang said lightly: "I said, I'm fine here, even if there is something, I can carry it alone! Sister Mei, don't worry, I am Chen Xiaotang, I will never be defeated!"

Mei Yanfang sighed, hung up the phone, and Zhang Guorong, who was her best friend, came up next to her: "Let me tell you, how is he?"
Mei Yanfang said: "What else can I do, I'm still so rebellious. But I believe him, how could he take this kind of thing to heart."
Zhang Guorong nodded: "That's good. Your manager has gone too far this time, why don't you talk about him?"
Mei Yanfang rubbed the center of her brows, and said helplessly, "He did it for my own good, although what he did was too much. But," she paused, and laughed happily, "But this matter, in the end Who is good, who is bad, and in what direction things will develop, I really can't tell!"
Zhang Guorong glanced at Mei Yanfang suspiciously, and said inexplicably, "What are you not sure about? Hey, what are you and A Tang hiding from me? Hurry up and tell the truth!"
Mei Yanfang glanced at her good friend in the music industry, and asked deeply: "A man as good as him, as long as he is a woman, will be fascinated, isn't he? Also, what is the relationship between me and him, don't care What's the matter? By the way, aren't you also very close to him, why don't you ask yourself?"
Zhang Guorong said: "Ah, this, that, that kid is too crazy recently, an album sold 100 million copies, it is too big for me, how can I have the nerve to meet him? Brat, really not I know what kind of freak it is, every time I do something, it is always unexpected!!"
Seeing Zhang Guorong shaking her head and sighing, Mei Yanfang said in her heart, you are so big, why don't I worry about it, now Chen Xiaotang has created a new feat in the music world by himself, how do you let us "predecessors" live.But this time, the "scandal" concocted by his agent might really be able to help him, even if he borrowed his advantage, so what? !

As Mei Yanfang guessed, the "unfounded" scandal between her and Chen Xiaotang quickly made headlines on the front pages of major entertainment media:
"The myth of the music world, Chen Xiaotang and the Queen of Poo are in love!"
"Married in secret? Chen Xiaotang's secret relationship!"
"Sister Mei is the one in her heart, and Chen Xiaotang, the new music king, is the first choice!"
"The secret here is to reveal the secret of Chen Xiaotang and Mei Yanfang's 'Fangtang Love'!"
"Fake show for real? Chen Xiaotang and Mei Yanfang's singing couple are envious of others!"

With the overwhelming spread of such scandals, Mei Yanfang took advantage of Chen Xiaotang's popularity to greatly increase her exposure, and her new album also had a good start.

Mei Yanfang's side is proud of the spring breeze, but Chen Xiaotang's side is very headache.Because he can't go out, he will be surrounded by reporters or fans when he goes out.Those people frantically questioned him, which made him worry a little about why he became popular.I also deeply understand the difficulties of those big-name celebrities in the previous life. Without the slightest personal freedom, even a little fart scandal will become the target of public criticism.

For this intensified scandal, Chen Xiaotang and Mei Yanfang finally stood up and clarified, but those gossip reporters would not let go easily, and in order to ensure the personal safety of Chen Xiaotang, a popular superstar, Huang Zhan and others deliberately contacted Hong Kong~Hong Kong A well-known security company asked them to appoint a few bodyguards to accept the selection.

I have to say that the security company in Hong Kong called "Thunderbolt Thunder" works very quickly. Within an hour after receiving the call, five people came to the door.

In the conference room, the five so-called "Five Heroes of the Thunderbolt" stood proudly. Three of them were Chinese, one was black, and one was white.

When Chen Xiaotang heard the news, he couldn't laugh or cry. When did he actually want to hire bodyguards?

However, this is everyone's good intentions, and he can't refuse, but these people will be by his side in the future, so it's better to choose carefully.

Walking into the conference room, Chen Xiaotang looked at the five tall guys. Chen Xiaotang looked from left to right, then from right to left... Then he asked them a question: "Why do you want to be bodyguards?"

The black man replied: "The salary is high!"

The white man replied: "Enough majesty!"

The three Chinese replied: "This is our hobby!"

Chen Xiaotang couldn't deny it, and asked again: "How do you think you can protect me?"

The black man replied: "Keep an eye on your every move!"

The white man replied: "Put an end to all dangers!"

The three Chinese replied: "by your side!"

Chen Xiaotang nodded, but suddenly said: "You are excellent, but I'm sorry, you are not suitable for me!" After finishing speaking, he was about to leave.

The five people came all the way, but they were rejected. They couldn't help asking: "Mr. Chen, what is your reason for rejecting us? You know, we are the best bodyguards in Hong Kong!"

Chen Xiaotang turned around and said with a smile: "It's because you are too good and professional, suitable for protecting the country's dignitaries, not stars like me!"

Five people don't quite understand.

Chen Xiaotang added: "Because my fans are not kidnappers..."

This sentence has a lot of meaning.

Chen Xiaotang drove away these five excellent personal bodyguards with a single sentence. This was a pain for Huang Zhan and the others. There is a fan of a superstar, haven't you seen the singing god Xu Guanjie, and the big brother Cheng Long is surrounded by a lot of people cheering and hugging?
Chen Xiaotang smiled and said, "They are them, and I am me! I don't need to be like them... But if you are really worried about my personal safety, it's easy to handle. Tell the crow to ask him to call Aaron and Ahu brothers over!"

Dongxing Club, inside a certain bar.

The two brothers Along and Ahu are playing dice with Brother Crow. Recently, the club nightclub business is not very good. Those Hong Kong policemen seem to have taken the wrong medicine, and they come to the venue every now and then to sweep them. , In fact, all things involving "pornography~gambling~drugs" are taken away.The Dongxing Society could not help but suffer huge losses, and even big societies such as Xinyi'an and Liansheng have temporarily stopped to avoid the limelight.

No business, no income, no income, gambling.

Just when they were bored, Chen Xiaotang called.When they learned that Chen Xiaotang wanted to hire Aaron and Ahu as "personal bodyguards" with a monthly salary of tens of thousands, the pair of brothers and sisters who had been with Chen Xiaotang couldn't believe their ears.

Crow was even more amazed, he didn't expect that Chen Xiaotang was very affectionate, and he didn't forget his friends even when he became prosperous.I became a little more certain about myself following him.

But having said that, recently, East Star Club had some complaints about Chen Xiaotang, that is, after Chen Xiaotang founded the Magic Shadow Entertainment Company, the East Star Club didn't let the East Star Club get involved in filming.Especially for "God of Gamblers", which is about to start filming this time, Chen Xiaotang has never asked the club for money, which made all the bosses of the East Star Club talk about it.

It's ridiculous to say that a society like this originally hated others asking for money, but now, if they want to send money to others, they can't give it out, it's pitiful.

In fact, it's no wonder that the group of East Star Club have followed Chen Xiaotang to invest in movies all the time, investing in one film and earning one film, earning more money than doing gangster business, why don't they make them greedy?So now Chen Xiaotang ignores them for a while, this group of people is like a millennium-year-old wives waiting for their lover, staying alone in the vacant room, full of grief.

Fortunately, when Chen Xiaotang notified the two brothers, Along and Ahu, to be bodyguards, he asked Crow to contact the big bosses of the East Star Society, and told him about his current situation very tactfully, and most importantly, he talked about "Gambling" The movie "God" is a high-risk investment, because the market is not clear, and I don't know whether it will make money after it is filmed, so I dare not mention community investment.

As soon as this remark came out, those bigwigs were comforted, yes, I heard that this "God of Gamblers" is difficult enough to produce, and it hasn't started yet.

A Tang is a good person, he always thinks of the community, and bears the risk alone!

In an instant, the whole community's gratitude to Chen Xiaotang went up to a new level.
