1990: Starting from Baojia Street

Green Snake did not do very well at the box office in Hong Kong.

Even though there are popular actresses like Maggie Cheung and Joey Wong performing their best, and well-known directors like Tsui Hark, the audience in Hong Kong is not willing to pay the bill.

The presentation of this movie was not acceptable to many viewers, especially the appearance of Wang Zuxian and Maggie Cheung, which was also criticized by many viewers. They believed that the makeup artist made the two beauties too ugly.

Moreover, this story is completely different from the Legend of White Snake they have heard before. Many people believe that the movie is completely incomparable with the previously popular Legend of White Snake.

Although Zhao Yazhi's White Snake is a demon, it is full of fairy spirit and very popular with the audience, and the love between the male and female protagonists is also touching.

As for Green Snake, it is much darker.

Although the movie has not yet been released, it cannot hold on for too long. In a market as fierce as Hong Kong, its box office will soon be closed.

Some organizations have given box office forecasts, ranging from 12 million to 15 million Hong Kong dollars.

Previously, The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly had a box office of over 10 million, and many people said it was a dark horse. That's because The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly did not have any stars participating, and the director was still a newcomer.

For a movie that cost only a few million yuan to produce, it grossed more than 10 million yuan at the box office in Hong Kong. Of course, everyone praised it.

But Green Snake is different. The lineup is much stronger than that of The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly, and the production cost is much higher. In the end, it only got this box office, and it was already a flop.

And some people analyzed that the reason why this movie has such a box office is because of Zhou Yan's participation.

Because the album Mysterious Country became a hit in Neon, Zhou Yan's popularity in Hong Kong has increased a lot, and Zhou Yan's previous scandal with Zhang Manyu has also aroused the interest of the audience for many years.

Without Zhou Yan, the box office of this movie may not even reach 10 million.

However, although the box office is poor, there are many reports about Green Snake. Now there are not only scandals between Zhou Yan and Maggie Cheung, but also scandals between Zhou Yan and Wang Zuxian.

Some entertainment magazines even compiled a love triangle between Zhou Yan, Zhang Manyu and Wang Zuxian.

Next Weekly gave it a whole page and a very eye-catching title.

[After all, old love is no match for new love. Because of drama and love, Wang Zuxian succeeded in taking the position, and Zhang Manyu shed tears sadly! 】

The short story is well written. It is said that during the original casting selection, Zhang Manyu chose White Snake, and it was because of Zhang Manyu that Zhou Yan took up the role of Green Snake.

However, Joey Wong forced himself to play the role of White Snake. She had a higher status, and finally defeated Zhang Manyu and successfully got the role of White Snake.

The report also said that an insider from the production team revealed that while on the set, Maggie Cheung and Joey Wang often quarreled over Zhou Yan and almost got into a fight.

In this movie, Zhou Yan and Wang Zuxian had many intimate scenes, and every time they were filming rival scenes, Zhang Manyu would secretly cry on the sidelines.

Zhou Yan also saw these news, but he didn't take it seriously. There were too many messy gossips in Xiangjiang.

And this is not the first time he has experienced it. When he had a scandal with Zhang Manyu before, it was similar.

For such news, just let the company respond.

Zhou Yan had a lot of things to do, and he didn't have the time to care about them, so he didn't care about them and just did whatever he needed to do every day.

Early in the morning on October 10th, Zhou Yan went to Yanjing Studio to edit The Sixth Sense with the editing workshop.

The editing of this film is more complicated than that of The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly because the story has more suspense. The film should be edited so that the audience will not notice that the hero is dead when they start watching, and it should also be edited so that the audience When I saw the ending, I felt like I was suddenly enlightened.

When the audience watches the movie and looks back, they will find that many details have actually inspired them.

This requires a sense of proportion when editing. If the editing is not good, the audience will easily find out that the male protagonist is actually dead when watching it at the beginning, or they will not have a sense of enlightenment when they see the ending.

This happens in some movies, and the audience will be very unhappy if they force a twist at the end.

The best feeling is that the audience vaguely realizes that something is wrong while watching, but cannot figure it out all at once. Finally, after the ending, it suddenly becomes clear.

After working all morning, Zhou Yan was chatting with Wang Junzheng during lunch. The bp machine suddenly received a message. The other party claimed to be Yang Dongsheng, the director of CCTV. He wanted to see Zhou Yan for something and left a phone number.

Zhou Yan took a look and saw that he was in the middle of eating, so he was not in a hurry to call someone back.

But ten minutes later, another message came from Yang Dongsheng. The content was similar to the previous one, but with four words added: I look forward to a call back.

It just so happened that he had almost finished eating at this time, so Zhou Yan put away the pager and said to Wang Junzheng, Sister Wang, this person is looking for me in a hurry. I'll call you back.

Well, you go ahead. Wang Junzheng waved his hand.

Zhou Yan nodded and left with the lunch box.

He went directly to the editing building, borrowed the editing workshop phone number, and called Yang Dongsheng.

When I called back, it was a woman who answered the call. She sounded quite young.

Hello. Who is this?

Hello, I'm Zhou Yan.

When she heard it was Zhou Yan, the woman shouted directly, Yang Dongsheng, Zhou Yan has called you back.

Then Zhou Yan heard a man reply on the other end of the phone, Here he is.

Before Yang Dongsheng came over, the woman smiled and said to Zhou Yan, Teacher Zhou, Director Yang is walking this way.

Thank you.

You're welcome, I really like your music, and I even bought your copy of Piano Boy.

Thank you very much for your support.

I……

What the woman wanted to say, Yang Dongsheng had already walked over and took the phone, Hello, Mr. Zhou, I am Yang Dongsheng.

Yang Dongsheng's accent is very strong, and it sounds like he is from Guangdong Province.

Hello, Director Yang, what do you want from me?

That's it, Mr. Zhou, we want to invite you to hold a concert, but I don't know if you have time.

Zhou Yan was greatly surprised, You invited me to give a concert?

When he saw Yang Dongsheng's message just now, Zhou Yan's first reaction was that CCTV wanted him to record a program. Unexpectedly, Yang Dongsheng came up and invited him to give a concert.

Is this what the TV station does?

If it were pushed back more than ten years, Zhou Yan would definitely suspect that the other party was a telecommunications fraud.

Director Yang, can you tell me why you invited me to give a concert?

Yang Dongsheng did not answer directly, but asked Zhou Yan, Teacher Zhou, do you have time in the afternoon?

I'm afraid not in the afternoon. I have work to do at the studio in the afternoon.

In the evening, if you have time, I'll treat you to a casual dinner and let's chat in person.

Okay, then I'll call you back after I finish my work here.

no problem.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yan entered the workshop again.

The editor was taking a break, so Zhou Yan watched the film for a while. After the editor came back, they continued editing The Sixth Sense.

At five o'clock in the evening, when Zhou Yan's work was finished, he called Yang Dongsheng and told him that he was done here and asked him to meet at Mingxuan Restaurant next to the West Second Ring Road.

The hotel Zhou Yan settled on was near Yangyin, not far from his home.

He often goes to this restaurant to eat, and it also cooperates with their company, and it is not far from the CCTV building.

The current CCTV building is still on Fuxing Road, close to the Third Ring Road, but later it was moved to the edge of the Second Ring Road, almost separated from CCTV by the Second Ring Road.

Zhou Yan arrived at the place first and ordered the dishes in advance.

After Yang Dongsheng arrived here, he saw a hint of embarrassment in his eyes when he saw the environment of the hotel.

This restaurant looks ordinary from the outside, but the decoration inside is very luxurious, and you can tell that the cost is high.

When Yang Dongsheng invited Zhou Yan to dinner, he would definitely have to report the entertainment fee to his work unit, and he didn't have to spend any money himself. However, there was a standard for the entertainment fee. If it exceeded the standard, it would be difficult for him to explain to the receptionist.

However, in front of Zhou Yan, Yang Dongsheng did not give in. He quickly changed his smile and said, Teacher Zhou, I have heard about you for a long time, and I finally meet you today.

Zhou Yan shook hands with Yang Dongsheng, I'm sorry, I really have work to do this afternoon and I can't leave. Director Yang, please have a seat.

Yang Dongsheng is in his early thirties, of medium height, and looks relatively reserved.

The gay men who work in most workplaces all dress in the same style, black pants and white shirts. If you go to any workplace casually, you will find that eight out of ten gay men are dressed like this.

After sitting down, Zhou Yan asked, Director Yang, I wonder what the concert you mentioned on the phone was like?

Yang Dongsheng said, The leaders from above have sent a task, saying that they want to film one of your concerts and broadcast it on the TV station. Since it is going to be filmed, then it must be held.

The leader inside the station?

It's not from the stage. I don't know the specific leader, but the leader hopes that the name of this concert will be Yanjing Silence.

Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows, he probably guessed something.

This matter may have something to do with the previous Olympic bid committee. After the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, Liang Yu asked him for a tape of Yanjing Silence.

Among those who went to the scene at that time, Liang Yu may have finally come into contact with the leaders above.

In fact, Zhou Yan had considered holding a concert in Yanjing before, but he had never found a good opportunity. Now that CCTV has invited him, it can be regarded as an opportunity.

He pondered for a moment and asked, What form is this invitation in? Is it just a matter of sending someone from my side?

Yang Dongsheng nodded, Well, all you need is someone here. Teacher Zhou, yourself, and the Piano Youth Symphony Orchestra. We will arrange the rest.

Where's the fee? Zhou Yan didn't act coy and directly mentioned the money.

The total remuneration paid to you is 120,000. As for how to distribute it between you and the orchestra, Mr. Zhou, it's up to you. Yang Dongsheng said.

Hearing the figure of 120,000, Zhou Yan nodded. The price was not low in the mainland. What he was most afraid of was that CCTV wanted to prostitute him for free and give him a subsidy of 1,000 to 800 yuan.

He is not short of tens of thousands of dollars, but he is bothered by this kind of thing. If CCTV prostitutes him for nothing this time, will other units come to prostitute him for nothing in the future?

Furthermore, if the subsidy given to him is small, then the musicians in the orchestra will not get even more money.

Fortunately, CCTV was quite interesting and I didn't think about having sex for nothing.

Zhou Yan was quite satisfied with the price. He asked again, When?

Number 20.

Zhou Yan frowned, The twentieth day of next month?

Yang Dongsheng shook his head, It's the twentieth of this month.

Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment, Director Yang, are you sure you're right? Today is already the 10th, and it only takes ten days until the 20th to confirm the venue, determine the program, rehearse, and you also need to sell tickets, right? ?Can it be used for ten days?”

The venue is at the Yanjing Concert Hall. The concert halls from 18th to 20th have been vacated. The program list can be based on your previous performances in Taiwan and Xiangjiang, plus a song Yanjing Silence That's all. Yang Dongsheng smiled, Actually, you just need to think of it as a Piano Boy concert, just changing the name and adding an additional song. You have already performed four times before, so there should be no problem .”

What about your ticket sales?

Yang Dongsheng is right. If we follow the Piano Boy concert, the preliminary preparations do not take much time, but the ticket sales are hard to say.

Even if we start selling tickets tomorrow, it will only take a few days.

The Yanjing Concert Hall has less than a thousand seats, and the planned export tickets for this concert are only 350. If you want to sell these 350 tickets, I think there should be no problem, and even if you sell If it doesn’t end, you don’t have to worry about not having an audience.”

Zhou Yan understood that most of the people who went to the concert this time were leaders and their families, and less than half of the tickets were sold overseas.

In other words, CCTV organized this concert just to pay for it.

Three hundred and fifty foreign sales tickets cost an average of 400 yuan per ticket, which was only 140,000 yuan. It could just cover the appearance fee for Zhou Yan and his band.

Now that he knew CCTV's plan, Zhou Yan didn't worry about it anymore. He wasn't the one paying the money anyway.

He thought for a moment and then asked, Director Yang, who owns the copyright to the video tapes behind this concert?

Yang Dongsheng rubbed his head, We haven't decided on this before, but the copyright should belong to our station, because it will be broadcast on the station later. Let's see, I will ask the leader for instructions tomorrow morning to see how to do it.

Zhou Yan nodded, No problem, Director Yang, don't blame me for having too many things on my plate. Please figure out some things in advance to avoid wrangling later.

I understand, I understand. We are also very sincere and want to do a good job in this special topic. For other things, Teacher Zhou, if you have any other demands, I will tell the leader tomorrow.

Zhou Yan thought for a while and said, There are no other important things. Once the copyright matter is determined, it will basically be fine.

Then do you think this will work? We will talk normally, and then we will go through the process at the same time. You will rehearse with the orchestra. After it is confirmed, we will invite guests and sell tickets to the outside world.

That's no problem. I'll talk to the orchestra about this tomorrow morning and finalize the program first.

Hearing Zhou Yan's agreement, Yang Dongsheng breathed a sigh of relief, Thank you very much, Teacher Zhou.

Zhou Yan took a sip of tea from the cup and asked him, Are you the director of this concert?

Yes, I am fully responsible for this concert. Yang Dongsheng nodded, and then said, fearing that Zhou Yan would not trust him, I am quite experienced in organizing this kind of event. I was also one of the directors of the Spring Festival Gala the year before last. one.

Since the show is going to be broadcast on TV, will there be interviews?

It's not an interview session, but we will be shooting behind-the-scenes footage of the concert that day. At that time, you will definitely need to communicate with the camera. Not only you, but other musicians may also need to appear on camera. I will explain the specific process in the next two days. Let’s connect with you again.”

Understood. Zhou Yan looked at his watch. It was already half past six, and said, Director Yang, you must be hungry too. I'll let them serve the food.

I listen to you, Teacher Zhou.

Do you want a drink, Director Yang?

Yang Dongsheng is from Guangdong Province and rarely drinks alcohol. But today he came over to treat Zhou Yan to dinner and wanted to drink some with Zhou Yan.

After all, he has worked in Yanjing for so many years, and he knows that if there is no wine at the dinner, then the meal will be in vain.

Okay, I'll drink with you.

Zhou Yan didn't want to drink, but after hearing what Yang Dongsheng said, he asked the waiter to get a bottle of Wuliangye.

Hearing that Zhou Yan asked for Zong Wuliangye, Yang Dongsheng bit his back teeth. He was already worried about whether he would have enough money today.

Today's meal might cost hundreds, but he only had more than three hundred yuan in his pocket, because when he thought about it, if two people went out to eat, even if the food was slightly better, more than three hundred yuan would be enough. .

After the dishes arrived, Yang Dongsheng felt even more guilty. Although he didn't know the price of these dishes, he knew from the looks of it that they were definitely not cheap.

After drinking the first glass of wine, Yang Dongsheng stood up and said he had to go to the toilet.

Zhou Yan didn't think much and let him go. After a while, Yang Dongsheng came back. Compared to before, his expression was much more relaxed now.

Zhou Yan was surprised to see that his mood had improved a lot, and he thought that he had been holding back his urine just now.

When the meal was about to end, Yang Dongcheng went to the toilet again. This time he came back quickly and his expression was more relaxed than before.

After finishing the meal, the two of them went downstairs. Yang Dongcheng ran straight to the cashier, Hello, check out at three eight.

The cashier looked at him and said with a smile, Mr. Zhou has already signed the three-eight orders.

Yang Dongcheng was stunned for a moment. He grasped the more than a thousand yuan in his pocket and felt mixed emotions in his heart. He went out to the toilet twice just now. The first time he went out to call a friend to send money, and the second time he went to the toilet. Go out and get the money.

Before he got the money, he had been worried, fearing that he would make a fool of himself when he finally checked out because he didn't have enough money in his pocket, but he didn't expect that this would be the result.

At this time, Zhou Yan came over and said, Director Yang, you are too polite. I came here to have dinner and I asked you to treat me.

In fact, Zhou Yan never thought that Yang Dongcheng would come to pay. After all, he chose the place and ordered the dishes. According to the rules, he must be the treat.

Yang Dongcheng struggled internally for a moment, then squeezed out a smile and said, Teacher Zhou, I've spent a lot of money on you.

You're welcome, let's go.

…

The next morning, Zhou Yan went to Fang Xiu and asked her to notify all band members to hold a meeting in the evening.

Then he went to find Wang Feng.

As soon as they met, Zhou Yan told Wang Feng, There is a performance on the 20th, and I have arranged for you to be the first violinist of the second group.

Wang Feng was confused, Brother, I haven't participated in rehearsals for a month.

Then just practice with the band these days. Anyway, you have practiced most of the songs. You don't need to play the unfamiliar songs.

Seeing that Zhou Yan must let him play, Wang Feng was also puzzled. After all, the orchestra was not indispensable for him. The orchestra now has a very sufficient staff and there are many alternatives for violinists.

Zhou Yan saw Wang Feng's confusion and added, This performance will be broadcast on CCTV. It will be good for your band's future development if you go and show your face.

Senior brother, you...

Wang Feng's heart was full of gratitude, but he didn't know how to express it for a moment.

Can you find such a good senior brother in this world? Such a good thing, I still think about him.

Zhou Yan patted him on the shoulder and said, The orchestra will have a meeting in the concert hall in the evening. If you are willing, come over.

After saying that, Zhou Yan turned around and left.

Looking at Zhou Yan's back, Wang Feng stood there blankly. He suddenly understood the ancient saying, A scholar will die for his confidant.

At this moment, he had a feeling that if Zhou Yan asked him to die, he would really do it.

…

Wang Feng came as promised in the evening, which Zhou Yan expected. Not many people could refuse such a good opportunity.

Calling Wang Feng over was not just about the senior brother's concern for his junior brother. After all, this month's group was basically filled with his junior brothers and sisters.

The reason why I pay more attention to Wang Feng is naturally because Wang Feng is a musician of the Zhou family. It will be good for the Zhou family if he becomes famous early.

Because the concert has not yet been completely determined, Zhou Yan did not tell the members the specific details. He only said that there would be a performance on the 20th and asked them to prepare well, and gave them a program list.

By the next day, the matter was settled. CCTV wanted the copyright to the concert video, but if the video or audio tape was to be sold later, Zhou Yan would be given a share.

CCTV itself doesn't care much about the income from video and audio tapes. They mainly don't want problems with the later broadcast by the TV station.

After several days of preparation, it was not until October 15th that tickets for the concert began to be sold.

From the beginning of ticket sales to the start of the performance, it only took five days in total, and CCTV was not afraid that the tickets would not be sold.

If these 350 tickets are not sold in the end, they will digest it internally.

However, if there is a chance, CCTV still hopes to sell the tickets, so it inserted the news that the concert tickets have started to be sold in the The Hourly News on October 14th. This segment is not long, and the total is only Ten seconds.

News on the Hour was formerly known as Nightly News. In the past two years, the program's ratings have gradually declined, and it has been revised several times, but the results are not very good.

This ten-second broadcast will generally not be very effective.

But what people didn't expect was that the effect of this broadcast was extremely good.

On October 15th, eighty tickets were sold.

On October 16th, more than 120 copies were sold.

On October 17, more than 140 copies were sold.

More than 140 tickets were sold on the 17th, not because only more than 140 tickets could be sold, but because of the 350 export tickets, only more than 140 were left.

Many people rushed to the concert hall that afternoon. The tickets were all sold out and they could only leave disappointed.

In less than three days, all 350 tickets were sold out, exceeding the target.

Seeing that the tickets were sold out, they released another hundred tickets, but it only took less than half a day for the tickets to be sold out again.

This time, they were unable to release tickets to the outside world because all the remaining hundreds of tickets had been arranged internally.

You can't just take these arranged tickets back from others and sell them, and these tickets are basically in the hands of leaders of various units.

I originally thought that since the tickets were sold out, no one would come to buy tickets, but in the next two days, more and more people came to the concert hall to buy tickets.

Many people were only belatedly aware of the news. They saw News on the Hour when episode 1 aired before, but only saw the news during the rebroadcast on episode 2. By the time they went over to buy tickets, the tickets had already been sold out.

CCTV did not expect that the tickets would sell so well.

The people in the News on the Hour column team were also surprised, because their ratings for this issue were not higher than before. How could it have such a good effect?

…

On October 20, at around five o'clock in the evening, many people gathered at the entrance of the Yanjing Concert Hall.

Yang Dongsheng was originally in the concert hall directing the preparations for the scene. Hearing the situation outside, he ran out to take a look.

When he saw the hundreds of people gathered in front of the door, he was also stunned.

The concert starts at seven o'clock, and there are already hundreds of people here, which means that there must be many people who don't have tickets.

Many people gathered around the ticket gate and kept asking the conductor if anyone would refund their tickets.

Once someone comes towards the ticket gate, they will be stared at by many people, as if expecting this person to come to refund the ticket.

But they were disappointed every time. The people who came were not refunding tickets at all, but just buying tickets like everyone else.

Yang Dongsheng also saw several people walking through the crowd with tickets, and they were scalpers at first glance.

He frowned and approached one of the scalpers, Brother, how did you sell this ticket?

When the scalper heard his Cantonese accent, he sat down and raised the price, Two thousand yuan for one ticket, five thousand for two seats together.

Hearing the price, Yang Dongsheng was shocked, So high?!

It's not high anymore. The tickets for this concert are very tight. That's Zhou Yan. His music albums have been sold out to millions abroad. Think about it, although Zhou Yan is Chinese, he is actually an internationally renowned music player. Home, if you go to a concert by an internationally renowned musician, it costs more than two thousand, how expensive is it?

Although scalpers boast a lot, there is actually some truth to it. Zhou Yan's album sales data overseas can indeed be regarded as an internationally renowned musician.

But the original price was only three hundred yuan.

The original price is three hundred. You can buy it at the original price. The tickets cost me one thousand and fifty. You can't let me not make money. Otherwise, I won't make more. You can give me four thousand for two tickets. Let me tell you, if you miss this show, you don’t know when you’ll have to wait until Zhou Yan goes to Neon for a concert. Not to mention the ticket price, you won’t be able to go.”

Yang Dongsheng turned around and left. The scalper quickly grabbed him and said, One thousand and five pieces, two pieces of three thousand, I'll give it to you if you want it.

Forget it, one thousand and two yuan, I will suffer a little loss.

One thousand pieces...it really can't be cheaper.

Eight hundred a piece, you can't get a lower price than mine anywhere else.

Yang Dongsheng ignored him at all. At the same time, he also thought that it was impossible to sell this ticket for 800 yuan.

But Yang Dongsheng had just walked a few steps when he heard someone say, Eight hundred pieces, give me two.

Yang Dongsheng turned around and looked and found that someone really wanted to spend eight hundred to buy a ticket.

He stopped and looked at it for a while, and found that the tickets in the hands of scalpers were quite easy to sell, and they were basically not less than 800 yuan.

Seeing the price of tickets, Yang Dongsheng lamented that Zhou Yan's concert was selling well, but it was also a pity that he would have set the price of the tickets higher if he had known about it.

No matter what, it's better than letting these scalpers earn all the money.

…

Backstage at the concert hall, just as Zhou Yan and the musicians finished filming the behind-the-scenes footage, He Zhenliang walked in with Liang Yu.

Zhou Yan, I haven't seen you for a few days. He Zhenliang held Zhou Yan's hand, Last time Liang Yu brought me your Yanjing Silence and I thought it was very good. I hope to see you at the scene today. A wonderful performance.”

Today's version may be different from last time. Last time it was a quartet, and this time there are more instruments.

Then I'm even more looking forward to it. After listening to this piece of music, I also gave it to my boss to listen to. The boss felt that this piece of music was very contagious and he was very inspired after listening to it. This kind of music should make more people Heard.”

He Zhenliang did not say which leader it was, and it was probably inconvenient to mention it.

Zhou Yan had some guesses in his mind, but it was hard to think too deeply.

Actually, I have wanted to hold a concert in Yanjing for a long time, but I have never found a good opportunity. This time I just found an opportunity.

Only now did He Zhenliang let go of Zhou Yan's hand. He looked at the backstage and then outside, Yanjing Concert Hall is still a bit small, not as good as the few concerts you held before. You were in Neon's Have you decided on a few concerts?

The one in Tokyo has just been decided, and the venue is Suntory Concert Hall.

There are many concert halls in Tokyo. This time Zhou Yan held a concert, and several concert halls came to contact him. Previously, Zhou Yan and Zhang Youan were also struggling with which concert hall it should be held.

In the end, they chose Suntory Concert Hall. This concert hall had just been opened to the public a few years ago. The overall facilities were relatively new. It was also Neon's first building specifically built for music performances. Zhou Yan was satisfied with the sound and layout.

This concert hall also has a lot of seats. Their hall can accommodate more than 2,000 people.

How are the ticket sales? He Zhenliang asked.

“Tickets won’t go on sale until next month.”

I wish you a great ticket sale.

Then it's all thanks to you.

He Zhenliang chatted with Zhou Yan for a few more words, and then left with Liang Yu. (End of chapter)
