Chapter 547: Mao Ying and Li Long Go to the Capital

~7 min read 1,259 words

The rivalry between Lai's, TVB, and JiaYi lasted throughout 1979.

The three-station TV war's influence extended beyond Gangdao; Azure Rainbow Media in WanDao, as well as places where life was good like Malaysia, all had TV stations.

Lai's TV programs, once they became popular in Gangdao, would immediately be synchronized to those places.

Under strong resource support, the TV stations under Azure Rainbow Media, against all odds, rose from second-tier to quasi-first-tier.

Subsequently, other TV stations in those places had no choice but to go to Gangdao to import TV programs.

To counter the torrent of TV programs coming from Azure Rainbow Media's affiliates.

For a time, Gangdao became the holy land of the performing arts across East Asia.

And in Gangdao, the most admired was the Eternal Splendor Production Studio.

Thus, throughout East Asia, the number of artists going to Gangdao to develop their careers kept increasing.

Life was good, after Yamaguchi Momoe, Tanaka Yuko also became an artist under Azure Rainbow Media.

From WanDao, Lin Qingxia, Hu Huizhong, and Hu Yinmeng also came to Gangdao.

For a time, Azure Rainbow Media was brimming with talent.

Riding this east wind, Huang Zhen led Jinghong Music Company to further expand.

They successively established subsidiaries in various East Asian countries.

Yang Qing's plot for an entertainment empire was basically completed.

At this time, Mao Ying and Li Long entered the mainland via Zhang Guangdou's channel.

Coincidentally encountering a film delegation from places where life was good coming for a visit, Mao Ying and Li Long were invited to join them.

These domestic people had no idea of Mao Ying and Li Long's status in the film and television circle.

They thought they were just actors, so they should belong to the same category.

Mao Ying and Li Long both gave a wry smile.

According to their status, Mao Ying and Li Long could have refused this arrangement that lowered their standing.

But they came with a charitable fund, and had previously met Comrade Xi Xian.

This counts as a high-standard reception, so we need to give them face.

When Mao Ying and Li Long appeared before Nakano Ryoko, Li Yuan Xiao Juan, and Yoshinaga Sayuri.

They exclaimed in surprise.

"Ah, Mao Ying is Mao Ying!"

"Li Long, so handsome………"

Facing the over-the-top astonishment of the actresses from places where life was good.

Liu Xiaoqing, Zhang Jinling, and Li Xiuming were a bit bewildered, "What's going on? What's going on?"

Director Lu Meng also hadn't expected that Mao Ying and Li Long would have such great influence in places where life was good.

Aren't they just actors from Gangdao?

Is it necessary?

Seeing that they were a group of people from places where life was good, Mao Ying showed no impatience, but instead warmly greeted them.

Li Long stood coolly to the side, helping her cope.

Mao Ying naturally steered the conversation to their visit; she didn't want the scene to become a fan meeting.

"Ryoko, Xiao Juan, I knew you'd come, so I brought Bai Hui along."

Nakano Ryoko asked.

"Is she senior Yamaguchi Momoe? That's really a pity."

"But being able to meet Senior Mao Ying and Senior Li Long here is already our honor."

Li Yuan Xiao Juan and Yoshinaga Sayuri nodded together.

"Yes, yes, in Daxia, being able to meet the two seniors is already extremely fortunate."

Li Long felt a bit neglectful toward the people from Beijing Film Academy.

"Director Lu, you haven't introduced us to a few ladies yet."

Lu Meng, reacting from surprise, laughed while introducing Mao Ying and Li Long.

"These three are our Beijing Film Academy's Three Flowers."

"This is Liu Xiaoqing, this is Zhang Jinling, this is Li Xiuming."

Then Lu Meng introduced Liu Xiaoqing and the others to Mao Ying and Li Long.

"This is Ms. Mao Ying and Ms. Li Long of Gangdao Eternal Splendor Production Studio."

Liu Xiaoqing was very curious about what exactly Mao Ying and Li Long's identities were.

(Importing movies where life was good was due to diplomatic needs.

Gangdao's movies, but at this time few people knew about them.

That's how the era was, because Gangdao movies had too many colors, making them hard to import.)

Nakano Ryoko and company wondered why the Beijing Film Academy people looked at Mao Ying as if they didn't know her.

Out of kindness, she explained to the Beijing Film Academy people.

"Senior Mao Ying and Senior Li Long are actors of Azure Rainbow Media."

"The movies they starred in all achieved tremendous success worldwide."

"They are both spokespersons for kung fu."

"Foreigners affectionately call the two 'Mulan' and 'Dragon'; they are super international stars."

"If we are a flower, then they are two big trees."

"We are only somewhat known domestically, while these two are world-famous."

Lu Meng heard Zhongye Liangzi's explanation and also realized who this person was.

In an instant he felt he had neglected Li Long and the other, but now it's not appropriate to show it.

Mao Ying heard Zhongye Liangzi's explanation and felt much more favorable toward this person.

While touring Jingcheng, she couldn't help but start trying to steal someone's lover.

"Liangzi, have you thought about going to Gangdao to develop?"

"Yamaguchi Momoe, those who are doing well in Gangdao and living a decent life are all doing fine."

"I think you can have better development."

Zhongye Liangzi was quite tempted, but it's impossible.

"Sorry, Senior Mao Ying, I'm doing well in my little life, and I've signed a long contract."

"Moreover, we have now become friendship ambassadors, so it's inconvenient to go to Eternal Splendor."

Mao Ying felt a bit regretful.

Excellent people are popular wherever they go.

Liu Xiaoqing and the other two also noticed their closeness.

But they are now tour guides, so they cannot do anything inappropriate.

When they arrived at Beihai, Li Long couldn't help but ask.

"Is there a courtyard called No. 95 Nanluoguxiang here?"

Zhang Jinling was very curious how Li Long knew this place.

"Yes, if we go east, that's Nanluoguxiang, Mr. Li. Do you have any acquaintances here?"

"Later I can take you to have a look."

Li Long didn't know what he had thought of, and he laughed.

"Our boss used to live there; Comrade Zhang, could you take us to have a look?"

Zhang Jinling hesitated a bit, because this wasn't in their plan.

She couldn't help but look at Lu Meng.

Lu Meng voluntarily stepped forward.

"Of course, let Zhang Jinling take you to have a look."

Li Long felt a surge of delight.

"That's great; I will definitely take many photos."

Mao Ying was also curious about where her boss used to live.

"I also want to go."

"Liangzi, do you want to go together? Our boss's former residence must be very meaningful."

Xiao Juan asked doubtfully.

"Senior, isn't your boss from Xingma?"

Mao Ying laughed heartily.

"That's only the manager of Eternal Splendor; our boss at Azure Rainbow Media is Yang Qing."

Xiao Baihe was startled.

"Could it be Yang Qing, the richest man in Gangdao?"

Mao Ying nodded.

The boss is their pride; there's nothing they can't say.

Even in the charitable fund, half of the investment comes from their boss.

"Yes, Xiao Juan, Liangzi, do you want to go?"

A group of children's eyes lit up.

"Of course we want to go."

That's a legend; going to see the legend's residence is nothing short of a great fortune.

But the brows of the group accompanying them on the trip furrowed.

Who is Yang Qing?

Nanluoguxiang……………
