March 3, 1999, Wednesday, the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, is the first day of school.
The temperature is not very cold today, but the wind is very strong.
Spring is the season for flying kites.
Every year after the Spring Festival, there will be two rows of craftsmen selling kites at the bridge of the canal. The kites rolled by hand, which are cheap at four or five yuan and expensive at twenty or thirty yuan, are the childhood memories of many people.
But this scene will gradually disappear after five or six years, and the kite can only be sealed in memories.
The wind was strong, so Ma Xiaolong, Zhusha, and Chen Jun all wore cotton hats to prevent the spring breeze from messing up their hair.
"I don't dare to worry about my country despite my humble position, even if no one knows about me..."
Early in the morning, the video stores on both sides of the road are playing the most popular album in the past six months. The album's total global sales have exceeded five million, and it has been designated by relevant departments as the album that best embodies the charm of Chinese music.
, this album was even shortlisted for the Golden Melody Award, and of course there were other awards, about four or five.
However, Bruce Ma refused to attend the Golden Melody Awards ceremony and only asked the head of the company's music department to go to the ceremony.
Maybe it was because he was too disrespectful, or maybe because of the condescending attitude of RTHK, the person in charge left the award ceremony empty-handed.
The person in charge was embarrassed, but also very angry. After missing out on the last award, the person in charge called him directly and complained that these bastards discriminated against mainland music and didn't take them seriously at all.
Ma Xiaolong comforted him and then hung up the phone after explaining a few words.
After the awards ceremony that day, the person in charge was interviewed by on-site reporters and said something that shocked the entertainment circles on both sides of the Taiwan Strait: "Little Dragon Entertainment will never participate in any music, film and television awards in Hong Kong and Taiwan!"
"
In order to let them strengthen their memory, they finally said "forever"!
Then, it exploded.
At the end of January and the beginning of February, the entertainment news in the media was almost all about the separation between Xiaolong Entertainment and the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles. These reporters were so excited that they speculated on the news over and over, which directly detonated the cultural and entertainment circles on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
This incident even alarmed the bosses above, who sent people to Xiaolong Entertainment Company to ask what was going on?
"This is what our boss means." The person in charge said this: "The people in Hong Kong and Taiwan look down on people so much that our boss was very angry and decided to personally build the entertainment environment in the mainland and never let those people who have their eyes above their own.
The bastard is making trouble!"
"..." When the boss heard the news, he was confused for a long time. He felt that Ma Xiaolong's behavior was a bit too disharmonious, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was reasonable to be angry.
The Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles really don’t look down on the mainland entertainment circles.
As the largest entertainment company in the mainland, Ma Xiaolong has huge funds and a large number of artists under his command. He accounts for almost half of the entire mainland entertainment industry, and is fully capable of taking on the challenge head-on.
And Bruce Ma did indeed do this. After that, no artist from Bruce Entertainment was allowed to play supporting roles for Hong Kong and Taiwan artists, and Hong Kong and Taiwan actors were absolutely not allowed to play protagonists in the film and television dramas invested by Xiaolong Entertainment.
Isn’t it just a game of capital! I will play with you to the end!
Because artists signed by Xiaolong Entertainment, even the lowest-level ones, are guaranteed a basic salary, and the money is quite high, so many newcomers from the mainland are very willing to sign and become the company's artists.
Moreover, the company really provides resources. Whether it is songs or movies and TV series, there are a lot of resources waiting for the artists within the company to participate every year. Except for the trainees, any other artist, even the lowest-level artist, will not have to worry.
There is no filming, no singing, and as long as they gain some popularity, there will be a lot of commercial performances waiting for them, and that is where they really make money.
After deciding to go head-on, Ma Xiaolong injected 300 million yuan into the company in one breath, in order to let the company compete for the mainland entertainment market. At the same time, he also signed cooperation agreements with many satellite TV stations and provided many high-level variety shows.
, in order to allow these satellite TV stations to have enough ratings, and then praise the contracted artists of Xiaolong Entertainment.
Ma Xiaolong even set up a troupe to let newcomers in the company perform stage plays to hone their acting, singing, opera and other comprehensive abilities. Whoever is more talented will be able to get ahead earlier, and stage plays can also sell some tickets.
Make some extra money, win-win.
Now the director of the theater troupe is the banned Chen Xiaoer. Ma Xiaolong gave him a basic salary of 5,000 yuan per month, as well as 5% of the theater's net profit from ticket sales, and said straightforwardly, "How do you want to act?"
No matter how you act, the company will never interfere'.
With the guarantee of various preferential treatment, Chen Xiaoer left the contracting hilltop and plunged into a drama troupe. He led many young people to rehearse dramas, hone their acting skills, and by the way started commercial performances in small theaters in the capital.
However, all this has just begun, and the subsequent development is unknown. However, with the basic salary guarantee provided by Ma Xiaolong, everyone does not panic. Instead, they hold back the energy to climb up and hone themselves desperately.
Those who have high consciousness do it for art, and those who don’t have high consciousness do it for themselves. Anyway, as long as you can improve, you can do whatever you want.
During the winter vacation, although people all over the country are busy celebrating the New Year, the most popular entertainment activity for the common people is eating melons. During this period of time, the common people in China have been eating big, sweet, crisp and exciting melons.
Xiaolong Entertainment has really started to work in the entertainment industry on its own.
The students who like to chase celebrities also enjoyed their meal very happily. On the first day of school, after entering the classroom, the classmates gathered together in twos and threes, and most of the topics discussed were entertainment industry matters.
"Xiaolong Entertainment is so tough. It's totally against the entire entertainment industry. It's awesome!"
"I think it's just a matter of flimsiness. Although Xiaolong Entertainment has made a lot of movies and TV series and released a lot of good songs in the past two years, if they want to fight to the death with the entire entertainment industry on their own, the end will definitely be miserable.
"
"This is interesting, and it's just like "The Lonely Warrior", it's so heroic."
"What's the point of being a hero? It's not like you have to die at the hands of the Four Heavenly Kings and Double Weekly. You can't win."
"That's not necessarily true. Anyway, I support Xiaolong Entertainment to work with them."
"hehe……"
Ma Xiaolong sat in his seat, flipping through "Cihai" which was thicker than a brick, and listened to the discussions of his classmates, leisurely and contentedly.
"Master..."
"..."
Li Xin raised his head and looked at Li Xin, who looked like he had been troubled by an old woman for three days and three nights. Ma Xiaolong asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Li Xin, with two dark circles under his eyes, swayed in his seat and said, "I spent the whole winter vacation studying hard, and I almost died from studying."
"..."
"But the effect is amazing. I have already learned the second grade courses. Give me another half semester and I will definitely be able to catch up with the high school courses." Li Xin yawned and lay on the table: "I'm so sleepy, I
Squint for a while first."
"..."
I haven't seen him since the winter vacation, and Li Xin's hair has grown a little longer. It seems that he didn't even go to the barber shop because he was studying.
This desperate energy made him a little moved.
With this kid's family background and his fierce energy, he will be successful no matter what he does in the future. It's not impossible to accept such a disciple.
But Ya Ting studies so hard to learn martial arts, and the purpose of learning martial arts is to fight. If he really accepts him and fights with people every day in the future, will it be considered as aiding the evil?
Although there are three chapters in the agreement, this guy is so clever that he must have a way to enforce fishing laws. Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
Sigh and continue reading "Cihai".
"Cihai" is a good thing. You can read it to relieve your boredom when you have nothing to do. You can also use it as a weapon in times of trouble.
Think about it, if you put "Cihai" in your schoolbag and encounter a group fight, you can just pick up the schoolbag and use it as a meteor hammer to swing it in a circle. It won't hurt or hurt, and it's easier to carry than a Mazha. It can pass through security checks all over the world.
Five stars for hidden attributes.
Today is the first day of school. Picking up textbooks, ordering school uniforms, and cleaning are the fixed three-piece package. But this bastard Li Xin picked up textbooks, ordered school uniforms, and ran away without participating in the cleaning at all.
Children with privilege can do whatever they want.
Ma Xiaolong is similar.
Others will listen carefully in class, but only he can do what he wants to do in class, and no teacher will cause trouble for him.
For a top student who gets perfect scores in almost every exam, the knowledge in class has been mastered in advance. Even various exercise books are of no use to him. Occasionally, the teacher will ask difficult questions on the blackboard.
If others cannot answer the question, they will be asked to come to the podium to answer the question.
After the answer, the teacher praised him for his good answer and explained to the students why the question should be solved in this way according to his answer, which can be regarded as indirectly helping the classmates to improve their academic ability.
Regarding him, the school and teachers all have a common understanding: as long as it does not affect classroom teaching, he can do whatever he wants.
To be honest, because he never went to high school in his previous life, he was originally looking forward to high school life in this life. However, after attending high school, he realized that high school life was much more boring than he imagined.
In particular, the teaching method of No. 1 Middle School tends to be closed management. What students have to do every day is not only study, but also study! There is basically no time for relaxation and entertainment.
In addition, he separated from Zhu Sha and Dai Yu at the beginning of school, leaving him without a single friend in the entire class that he could hang out with.
It's interesting to see Li Xin finally come to him, but right now, in order to learn Kung Fu from him, I'm having sex with my family guy! I guess I didn't have to think about it before my second year of high school, and I was divided into different classes in my second year of high school.
Maybe we are in the same class or not!
Because of this, Ma Xiaolong's school life in his first year of high school was very boring. If it weren't for the annual skill reward, he would have started his own business long ago.
Considering that the university no longer has skill rewards, only skill points and attribute points can be obtained, he is wondering whether it is still necessary to go to university to take classes?
Both skill points and attribute points can be obtained through cultural and sports competitions, and the higher the level of the competition, the higher the points obtained, which are much more than those obtained in college.
In this case, it seems that there is no need to go to college every day. If you have that time, you might as well go to the Asian Games, Olympics, etc. As long as you win the championship, skill points and attribute points are indispensable.
When all skills are upgraded to full levels and all attributes are increased to full points, he can start his career step by step and enjoy life at the same time.
Shaking his head, he temporarily focused on his future career plans.
Now that the last volume of "Sword Art Online" has been released, it has a very happy ending. Readers commented very highly after reading it and expressed their extreme reluctance. Many readers hope that Ma Xiaolong can continue writing, but of course this is impossible.
The story is complete when it is complete, and writing it down is just a continuation of the story. The story ends after the male and female protagonists are reunited, which is just right.
Of course, what readers are most happy about is that "Sword Art Online" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy" have different tragic endings. What is rare is a happy ending, which has changed readers' evaluation of Bruce Ma a lot.
You know, back then, Xiaolong was known as an old thief. Many readers sent blades to the publishing house, and the voices of criticism were endless. However, there is no sword plot in the entire "Sword Art Online". In addition to the intense and exciting battles, the life scenes are very
It's heartwarming, and although the final ending has some twists and turns, the lovers finally got married, and readers' evaluation of Ma Xiaolong finally changed.
Many people now call him 'teacher', and many readers have written to ask: "Teacher Xiaolong, when will the next work be uploaded? I am very much looking forward to it."
Ma Xiaolong has not yet thought about a new work. After all, he has a lot of things going on right now, and the comic "Under One Person" has been serialized on "Manga King" for more than a year, and related animations are currently being produced.
However, given the current domestic television environment, it would be very difficult for "Under One Person" to be broadcast on television because of its somewhat disharmonious outlook.
The members of the animation production department are all worried. They are afraid that the works they have devoted their efforts to create will be buried in dust because they cannot be played.
Ma Xiaolong was helpless. China was no better than abroad. All TV stations were in the hands of the state, and private individuals were not allowed to own TV stations.
Although there are more and more Internet cafes and more and more people are playing computer games, due to current computer configurations, network speed and other limitations, only a few people use computers to access the Internet.
Ma Xiaolong's comprehensive portal website has mastered a large amount of Internet user data. So far, the number of domestic Internet users is less than 100 million. Although it is still a lot, compared with the grand situation in 20 years when everyone has a mobile phone to surf the Internet, now they can go to Internet cafes.
People basically have to save money to play for an hour or two.
Time is precious, so most people who go to Internet cafes go to play games, and a small number of people read news online. However, the frequency of chatting and making friends online is relatively high.
Watching videos? With the current internet speed, what’s going on?
Fortunately, Ma Xiaolong has built the optical fiber network for the above two years ago, and is currently preparing to install network signals in batches so that netizens can use optical fiber to access the Internet.
Judging from the current situation, it will take at least three or four years to lay out optical fiber networks across the country, but the first batch of optical fiber networks can be applied for and installed now.
Ma Xiaolong plans to ask when the optical fiber network will be installed in the small town?
When fiber optic networks are popularized, there will be a place for online videos to survive, and cartoons can be played on the Internet.
