Qin Chuan was stunned. What Han Hong said was indeed correct. Most of the donations from Bazaar were for free because the donations were not made on the spot and the names of all donors were not announced afterwards.

Many celebrities and artists just go there to gain traffic, eat and drink their fill, and then leave.

Only a small number of people actually donated money, but there were a lot of people there, and even if it was a small number of people, the amount would be more than what Han Hong could get through private donations.

Seeing that Qin Chuan wanted to persuade him again, Han Hong said, “Being low-key has its advantages, it will not cause as much trouble. Being high-profile may make you rich, but it will also bring trouble.”

“Every now and then, someone will find fault with you and ask you to attend meetings, which makes it impossible for you to do your daily work.”

Qin Chuan nodded. A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. The same is true for charity: “I didn’t think it through.”

“How about this, I will donate two million to your organization every year. It’s just a small contribution, please don’t mind, Sister Hong.”

“Thank you on behalf of those children in the mountains!” Han Hong held Qin Chuan’s hand tightly.

Two million is not a small amount. It can at least save dozens of families. Qin Chuan’s money did not come from the wind.

Besides, he doesn’t donate just once, but every year.

Two million a year, that’s ten million in five years.

Ten million. Looking around the entertainment industry, how many stars have donated so much money?

Her current charity organization can last for ten years, let alone five years. After so many years, it will not be a small amount of money for Qin Chuan.

“You’re welcome, it’s all as it should be.”

After chatting with Han Hong for a while, Qin Chuan walked out of the hotel. Zhao Liying was waiting for him in the car at the door to go back together.

“I’ll reimburse you for the 200,000 yuan later.”

He was the one who called the people and paid the money, so there was no reason for Zhao Liying to spend money.

It’s not time for her to make money yet, and she probably doesn’t have much savings now.

“No, since it’s a charity, I should contribute a little.” Zhao Liying patted her chest and said, “Don’t worry, I have money.”

She was a little depressed when she first donated. It was all her hard-earned money, thirty or fifty thousand or something. She could give it for Qin Chuan’s sake.

But it’s not charity that would empty out one’s own savings.

Later, as she watched Han Hong sing song after song and drink glass after glass of wine, she softened her heart.

Two hundred thousand is a huge sum of money for her now, but it should not be a difficult thing for her in the future.

After the New Year’s Eve concert tomorrow night, she may get more endorsements and commercial performances, and it will be easier to make money in the future.

To be more realistic, taking out this money will also leave a good impression on Qin Chuan. By making his name known to the boss and leaving a deep impression on him, will he still be short of money in the future?
What she paid today was 200,000 yuan, and in the future Qin Chuan might bring her 2 million or 20 million yuan.

“It’s rare that you have this kind of heart. Okay, I’ll give you Sister Han Hong’s contact information later, and you can contact her yourself.”

“Uh-huh.”

“Xiao Zhang, go back to the hotel.”

Qin Chuan told the driver to drive.

The next day, evening.

International Exhibition Center.

Shonan TV, live broadcast of New Year’s Eve concert.

There were huge crowds of people outside the convention and exhibition center, and it was very lively.

New Year’s Eve is a special day for young people, and Shonan TV organized such an event, which led to many people gathering here to watch the stars.

The tickets are very expensive, but even so, there are still a lot of people spending money.

Normally, it costs several hundred yuan to watch a concert. Today, it also costs several hundred yuan to watch dozens of stars. The front row VIP seats are 2,300 yuan, which is a complete deal.

Backstage, lounge.

Celebrities and artists all gathered here.

Zhao Liying had long hair draped around her waist and wore a white long dress. The jewelry on her neck, hands and ears cost more than 100,000 yuan in total.

This was the first time in my life that I wore something so precious.

Seeing that she stood the whole time and looked down at the lyrics, Qin Chuan, who was in a suit and tie, said, “Aren’t you tired of standing?”

“You can’t sit even if you’re tired.” Zhao Liying knew what he was going to say: “If your skirt gets wrinkled by someone sitting on it, you’ll have to pay for it.”

“It’s not a big deal to sit for a while, right?” Qin Chuan used to rent clothes to attend events. He would sit when he needed to sit and lie down when he needed to lie down, and he never had to pay much money.

As long as you don’t get burned by smoking, it’s fine.

“I won’t sit down. I don’t have much time anyway…Brother Chuan, you have to take me with you after we go on stage.”

“Don’t worry, it’s just lip syncing, just don’t hold the microphone upside down.”

Qin Chuan inexplicably thought of some artists in his previous life who lip-synced, holding the microphone upside down, rushing to the beat, and singing and dancing for a long time without losing their breath at all.

He can mess up such a simple thing, so he is a talent.

As it gets closer to eight o’clock in the evening, more and more artists appear backstage. At this time, a brick can knock down a group of top artists.

Qin Chuan saw Shu Xing in the crowd, and the other party waved and greeted him in high spirits.

……

At eight o’clock, the New Year’s Eve concert officially begins.

Qin Chuan first went on stage to sing a solo to open the show, then changed into a new outfit and waited for the chorus.

The second one is Han Hong, the third one is Huang Xiaoming… At half past nine, it is Qin Chuan’s turn for the second game.

This time I sang a duet with Zhao Liying.

Following the announcement by hosts He Ling and Wang Han, Zhao Liying stepped onto the stage step by step, her heart pounding.

It wasn’t until I walked completely to the center of the stage and looked at the sea of ​​people around me that my mind went blank and I was so nervous that I couldn’t utter a word.

“Good evening everyone, nice to see you again!” Qin Chuan’s sudden voice brought Zhao Liying back to her senses. She took a deep breath and waited for the prelude to the music.

Looking at this strange girl in front of the TV, netizens were confused and didn’t know her name.

I thought that the person who could sing with Qin Chuan must be a well-known female star, but I didn’t expect it to be a strange face I had never seen before.

Only a small number of people recognized her role as the conductor in Lost on Journey.

“Hello, everyone. I’m actress Zhao Liying.” After calming down a little, Zhao Liying introduced herself before starting to sing.

The noise at the scene was so loud that she couldn’t hear what the audience was saying at all. All she could see were the tide of heads and the glow sticks that looked like a galaxy of stars.

Being the center of attention and the center of attention, it was her first time to experience a scene with tens of thousands of people, which had a huge impact on her little heart.

Once upon a time, she was also a member of the audience. Today, she stood on the stage and turned from an audience member into the protagonist.

This feeling was so wonderful. Dopamine was secreted in her brain. At this moment, she was a hundred times happier than when she got her salary.

“When that star appears in the sky, do you know that I start to miss it again…”

This song is about if love is destined.

Qin Chuan’s performance was as steady as an old dog, while Zhao Liying’s palms were sweaty and her lips were trembling a little. Fortunately, the mic was half-open, otherwise it would have been a disaster if it was fully open.

The time it took for this song to last seemed like a century to her.

Finally, she walked off the stage in a daze, held by Qin Chuan’s hand.

After arriving backstage, she was still a little dazed, yet a little obsessed with the feeling just now.

As someone who had experienced this, Qin Chuan could understand her feelings and did not disturb her.

While living in this world, we cannot escape fame and fortune.

Many artists have been stars for decades. Logically, the money they earn is more than they can spend in a lifetime, but they still refuse to leave the entertainment industry.

A big reason is that they can’t accept the feeling of being ignored when walking on the street and losing the attention of the public.

There are some things that you don’t feel until you have experienced them, but once you have them and then lose them, the huge gap is not something that everyone can accept.

When Qin Chuan was a child, he learned a text called Lao Wang.

There are two protagonists, one is the retired Mr. Wang, and the other is Old Wang from the countryside.

One is glorious, the other is ordinary.

At that time, the teacher said that I should study hard and become Mr. Wang in the future, otherwise I would only become Old Wang.

Later, when he entered the entertainment industry, he finally understood that if you stand on this stage for one day, you are Mr. Wang, but once you step down, you are just Old Wang. (End of this chapter)
