Chapter 616 617【Goodbye Charlotte】
With the popularity of "Emperor of Han Dynasty", 2003 came quietly.
During the awards season at the end of the year, Xiang Nan basically didn’t go because he was too busy.
?The unspoken rule of the award ceremony is that those who are present will receive prizes, and those who are not present will not receive prizes.
So although Xiang Nan has been shortlisted for many awards and is very capable of winning awards, because he is doing a concert tour, he really can''t win, so in terms of awards, he is not as fierce as last year.
Even if there are no awards, just by looking at the concert, people can know that Xiang Nan is the real uncrowned king.
…
?The Youthful Asia Tour lasted until March of next year and visited the Mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia. Everywhere they went, they were greeted by crowds of people and they were very popular.
This is basically the first time in the mainland music scene.
Singers from the Mainland before this were as popular as they were popular, but they were all limited to one place in the Mainland, and there were very few who could go out.
?Like Dou Wei, He Yong, and Zhang Chu, their concerts at the Hong Kong Coliseum were enough to be talked about for a lifetime.
?But Xiang Nan not only held concerts at the Coliseum, but also left his footprints everywhere, including Taipei Arena, Resorts World Genting in Malaysia, and the National Stadium in Singapore.
?This is the real step out, and it also officially establishes Xiang Nan’s status as the number one person in the mainland music scene.
…
?Major domestic media, including newspapers, magazines, television, and the Internet, also reported on this grand event, attracting the attention of countless people and arousing a chorus of admiration.
“We also have king-level singers in the mainland~”
“How can those heavenly kings compare with Yuan Hua? They all just sing songs written by others, but Yuan Hua composed them all himself.”
“Being a star and being able to achieve this level is truly a life worth living.”
Everyone was talking about it, and they were all envious of Xiang Nan''s scenery.
The news that broke out later made them even more jealous.
It turns out that some media revealed Xiang Nan’s remuneration for this tour. The average remuneration for each concert was one million yuan. Xiang Nan has held as many as 100 events, which is 100 million yuan.
Even excluding taxes, Xiang Nan''s net income is as much as 50 to 60 million.
This number, at that time, was definitely an astronomical figure for ordinary people.
“Oh my god, is it so profitable to be a star?”
“One more concert and he’ll be a billionaire.”
“One concert tour is worth 100 million, which is as much as our factory’s output in half a year.”
?Everyone was stunned and salivating.
…
In March, Xiang Nan ended his tour and returned to the mainland.
?However, he did not return to Yanjing for the time being, but went to Xihong City first.
Because he received the news that in a few days, Charlotte would be released from prison.
…
?The Second Prison of Xihong City is located in the outer suburbs of the city.
Surrounded by farmland, covered with thick snow, it looks quite desolate.
??The wind is howling and the air-conditioning is so strong that no mice come out to look for food on this cold day.
?At this moment, two cars were parked at the door of the Second Prison.
It was a shabby Jinbei car that had been passed down several times. The car body had many holes in it, and even the windows were cracked and were stuck together with transparent tape. The other one is a brand new Rolls-Royce. It is luxurious, elegant and dignified. It is like a lion crouching there. Although it does not move, it is still not to be underestimated.
??The value of the two cars is thousands of miles apart, but now they are both parked at the gate of the prison, which makes the prison guards on duty feel a little strange.
…
At ten o''clock, the prison door opened with a bang.
A man walked out in a daze, carrying a bag.
Behind him was a man who looked like a prison leader, and he warned the man, "Charlotte, you are still young. After you get out, you must work hard, change your ways, and be a new person. Don''t come back again."
“Thank you, warden.” Charlotte bowed respectfully.
He spent five years in prison and was finally released today.
?At this time, the door of the Jinbei car also creaked open, and two tightly wrapped people rushed out and hugged Charlotte.
“Mom, Dongmei~” Charlotte couldn’t help but shed tears when she saw the two of them.
"Charlotte, don''t cry, everyone is out and everything will be fine." Charlotte''s mother comforted her.
“Yes, Charlotte, hurry up and get in the car. Wear thin clothes so you don’t get cold.” Ma Dongmei also advised quickly.
?Charlotte nodded and was about to get in the car and leave.
?At this moment, the window of the Rolls-Royce opened, and a person stuck his head out and shouted, "Charlotte, Dongmei~"
Charlotte and Ma Dongmei couldn''t help but be startled when they saw this person, "Yuan Hua?!"
“Charlotte, come to the car and have a chat.” Xiang Nan nodded.
??Charlotte was stunned for a moment, then got into Xiang Nan''s car.
…
“Charlotte, long time no see~” Xiang Nan sighed.
After Xia Luo got in the car, he looked around the car, glanced at Xiang Nan again, curled his lips and said, "Yes, I haven''t seen you for a few years. I heard that you are doing well now, holding concerts and filming again." TV series, and now making movies... no wonder he can afford to drive a Rolls-Royce.”
“Yes.” Xiang Nan nodded.
This Rolls-Royce was a gift he bought for himself. This Asian tour held 100 shows, which took him nearly five months of hard work. This car is a reward for myself.
“I only heard about you when I took the national examination in June.” Xiang Nan said again, “I’m sorry, I can’t help you either.”
“Forget it, I’m already very grateful that you don’t harm me.” Charlotte said with a smile on her face.
"Charlotte, don''t think of me as your enemy, I never wanted to harm you." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Think about it, I just didn''t let you write songs from the beginning to the end.
But besides writing songs, you actually have many ways to make money. Opening an Internet cafe, speculating in houses, buying stocks... you can''t make money in any of them. Why do you think so badly about yourself? "
"Okay, don''t talk cheaply to me." Charlotte waved her hands and said, "What do you want, you think I''m not miserable enough, and you still want to come and tease me?"
"Charlotte, you think too highly of yourself. With my current status, capital and connections, do I still want to find satisfaction in you?" Xiang Nan said speechlessly, and then handed him a box. “In this box is one million yuan, not too much, but definitely not too little.
?Whether you use it to start a business or buy a house, I believe it will be enough for you to get started. It can be considered a little compensation from me. "
"Why, if you give me this million, do you feel that you don''t owe me anymore? You feel that you can feel at ease, right?" Charlotte said coldly after hearing this.
"Charlotte, please understand. From the beginning to the end, I don''t feel I owe you anything." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "It doesn''t matter if you are willing to fall down, you don''t want to make progress, or you are going to jail. , it’s all your own doing and has nothing to do with me.
The reason why I gave you this million is just to return a favor to you. If you want it, take it. If you don’t want it, just give it back to me. From now on, I have no contact with you. "
“I don’t want it if you’re a bastard~” Charlotte thought carefully and grabbed the box.
Xiang Nan nodded, "Use this money well. I hope you and Ma Dongmei are happy!"
