Chapter 201 Can't Help It
That night, Lu Yanhe watched Chen Ziyan chatting with Chen Biqiu. It was actually a kind of negotiation, and he felt breathtaking.
For a while, Lu Yanhe felt that Chen Ziyan was too "direct", and for a while, he felt that Chen Ziyan was a bit "flashy". However, what he didn't expect was that the entire rhythm at the dinner table was controlled by Chen Ziyan. Chen Biqiu was the most popular person in other people's mouths. The gold-medal producer, who is flamboyant and high-profile, turned out to be extra restrained tonight.
This shocked Lu Yanhe.
After dinner, Wen Minglan had basically talked about her participation in the variety show "Century of Love".
The main topic was over, Chen Ziyan also drank two glasses of wine, and her smile became more cordial.
“Today’s artists live a happier life than those in the past, but it is more difficult. In the past, it was a barbaric era. Whoever had the ability could break through. Now it is an era of high industrialization. Who can If you have the ability, it depends on who can be packaged. Personal efforts The proportion of strength is getting smaller and smaller."
In the end, Chen Ziyan directly held Chen Biqiu's hand and said, "Old Chen, do you know what I think is the most amazing thing about your show? This is the most amazing place where young people and newcomers are always given opportunities. Fang."
Chen Biqiu smiled and said, "I'm not that great, so don't belittle me, your big manager."
"I'm not kidding you. , there are so many variety show producers in this industry, why do I keep thinking Want to cooperate with you? Whether it’s Xiao Lu, Tu Song, or Ming Lan, I sent them to your program because I know that you are very supportive and caring for the newcomers, and they can Your show brings out the best in them.”
Chen Biqiu waved his hand and said softly: "No."
However, Lu Yanhe clearly saw a touch of joy that "his thoughts and actions were seen" on Chen Biqiu's face.
“I have a common problem of managers, that is, I only look at the one-third of an acre of a few artists under me. I also know that sometimes, when negotiating with people, I am strong, or I am not. To be honest, there is no other way. People in this position must do this because the environment is like this. The weak will prey on the strong. If you don't fight harder, Others will take the things away." When Chen Ziyan said this, she looked at Chen Biqiu and smiled, "Be proactive, try every means, and create all kinds of opportunities. In fact, there is only one purpose, to give these children under me. Strive for the best opportunities and the best resources.”
“Yes, I know, I have to deal with all kinds of people every day. I have dealt with all kinds of agents, and I have seen them all." Chen Biqiu said, "The whole circle has heard of your legend. I have always been curious about how you developed these eyes and were chosen by you. Anyone in the world can be popular.”
“Actually, it’s not that I have a pair of eyes that can pick people out, but that I have a pair of eyes that can convince others. Support their words with me." Chen Ziyan smiled, "It's like I want to convince you that it's worth it for you to spend 50,000 yuan per period to find Lu Yanhe. I will let you believe this because I am responsible for what I say. , the same is true for Minglan, I know she will be loved by the audience, as long as I can convince you to give her this chance.”
Chen Biqiu gave her a thumbs up.
"I really think you are awesome now. There is probably nothing in this world that you can't do."
"Don't put such a high hat on me, I can't wear it. ." Chen Ziyan waved her hand, "In short, two of my artists have been entrusted to you as permanent residents. You have to take good care of them."
...
There is a lot to do on the table. Things, especially at the wine table.
Lu Yanhe finally saw it.
After Chen Ziyan's talk, when they were about to leave at the end, both of them were a little drunk.
Chen Biqiu grabbed Chen Ziyan's hand and said earnestly: "Don't worry, your two children will be left in my hands, and I will take good care of them for you."
Chen Ziyan smiled. The flower branches trembled and nodded, "Then I'll leave it to you!"
"Leave it to me!"
...
Lu Yanhe and Li Zhenzhen stood nearby, neither of them spoke.
Chen Biqiu and Chen Ziyan are so enthusiastic that no one can disturb them.
It wasn't until their car arrived that Chen Ziyan insisted on sending Chen Biqiu into the car in person. Lu Yanhe followed Chen Ziyan. They only got into their car after Chen Ziyan sent them away with a smile on her face.
Lu Yanhe turned his head and glanced at Chen Ziyan.
The smile on Chen Ziyan's face still remained, but she immediately picked up a bottle of mineral water, took a big sip, rinsed her mouth, and then found an empty cup and spit it in.
She took a long breath.
Lu Yanhe asked: "Sister Ziyan, are you feeling uncomfortable because you drank too much? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Chen Ziyan shook her head and said: "It's okay, it's okay. Ordering a drink is nothing."
She turned around, looked at Lu Yanhe and said with a smile, "Do you have a lot of questions?"
Lu Yanhe nodded hesitantly and said, "Yes, a little bit."
Chen Ziyan asked, "If you have any questions, just ask and I will answer them for you."
Lu Yanhe: "I'm a little confused. , it seems that you specifically wanted Wen Minglan to join the show "Century of Love" tonight as a regular guest. This matter requires Chen Biqiu's consent. However, your attitude at the beginning made me feel... arrogant? This is not an appropriate description, but that's the feeling."
"Why didn't I. Tell him this as if you were asking for help. You actually want to ask this, right?" Chen Ziyan asked.
Lu Yanhe blushed, but Chen Ziyan unexpectedly summed it up directly.
"Yes, that's what I mean." Lu Yanhe nodded.
Chen Ziyan said: "Because he has seen too many such agents. For him, there are too many situations where others ask him for a chance, and my status is not suitable for this approach. Rather than treating me with the same respect, I would rather let him think that I am just an agent with a somewhat flamboyant temper who wears the title of gold medal agent. "
"Wouldn't this make him dissatisfied with you?" Lu Yanhe asked curiously, "If a person with a very flamboyant attitude comes to talk to me about cooperation, I will definitely be a little bit dissatisfied. I'm willing."
"It depends on who is looking for you. If the person looking for you is a complete stranger, then there are other things. There is nothing to say, just reject it directly, but if that person is well-known, your tolerance for him will be much higher." Chen Ziyan said confidently, "No one will deny subsequent cooperation because of my initial attitude. Instead of these things, they value what I can bring them more.”
Lu Yanhe said thoughtfully. Nodding, "Actually, this is also my second question. You obviously have two trump cards in your hand. Wen Minglan got the heroine of director Fu Zhu's new film. How can you help him get a first-line male star to join Wen Minglan? He should have agreed to record the show "Century of Love" from the beginning, right?"
Chen Ziyan smiled and said: "You have to give a lot of things bit by bit, so that others will think you are sincere and believe that what you give is really precious. If you give it all in one breath If you go out, others will not only doubt whether the things you give out are So precious, I still wonder if you have something more precious that you haven't given."
Chen Ziyan's explanation shocked Lu Yanhe's heart - Lu Yanhe had heard many truths, but there were just a lot of them. , it really just stays at the level of theory.
On this night, Lu Yanhe felt suddenly enlightened and enlightened.
“Do you have any other questions?”
“Yes.”
"What?"
Lu Yanhe said: "I originally thought I was talking to them about the program "Young Days" tonight, so I was invited to come with them, but that's not the case. Why did you call me here today? What? Shouldn't we call Wen Minglan? Is it more suitable?"
Chen Ziyan smiled slightly, "I am a very incompetent agent."
"Huh?" Lu Yanhe was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Chen Ziyan to say this. One sentence left him at a loss.
"Me, I like to be lazy. If artists can stand up for themselves, think more, and do more, I can worry less and meddle less. It's just that some artists only have artistic talent, and others Nothing makes sense, so there's nothing I can do about it. I can only worry more about it, and there are The artist's quality is very high in all aspects, so I will want him to cover everything and let him see more about the operating rules of this industry, or the rules of the game." Chen Ziyan turned to look at Lu Yanhe. His eyes were as bright as a leopard in the darkness, and he said: "You are a very talented person." An artist with very capable ideas. In this case, when you are young, it will be of great benefit to you to see more things and understand more things. I still say the same thing, you are still so young, what path will you take in the future? It is not something that has to be decided in the next few years. Even if you are on the road of being an artist, If you go straight on, you can't just be an artist until you reach the end. No artist reaches the end. You are just an artist. You must have the right to speak, the right to make decisions, and the resources and abilities. Instead of cultivating them when you need them in the future. , why not cultivate it first?”
Lu Yanhe was surprised when he heard Chen Ziyan's words.
"Frankly speaking, among the three people currently, you are undoubtedly the highest in terms of overall quality. Moreover, if you can get into Zhenhua, your starting point, your social image, and your network of contacts will all be in the future. You will have advantages that others cannot match. See more, think more, learn more, and Think, make more progress, learn to judge opportunities, choose opportunities, and seize opportunities." Chen Ziyan said, "I can't cover everything. The only one who is truly responsible for your life is yourself."
-
That night, Lu Yanhe often lost his mind while reading.
Even Helan, who was watching the live broadcast, discovered it.
When a person is distracted, even if his eyes are fixed on the book in front of him, his expression will reveal his absent-mindedness.
Chen Ziyan’s words echoed repeatedly in Lu Yanhe’s mind.
In the live broadcast room, many people found that Lu Yanhe was distracted.
This surprised and strange everyone.
They have been watching Lu Yanhe’s live broadcast for more than a day or two. They know how focused Lu Yanhe is when he is reading.
It's rare to see Lu Yanhe distracted.
In the barrage room, everyone was confused.
The vibrating sound of the mobile phone brought Lu Yanhe back from his distraction.
Lu Yanhe came back to his senses and picked up his phone.
He was a little surprised and answered the phone, "Hello?"
"You've been distracted while reading for a long time, didn't you realize?" Chen Siqi's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Many people are talking in your live broadcast room."
Lu Yanhe came back to his senses and looked at it in surprise After taking a look at the live broadcast room, I discovered the doubts that everyone in the barrage room had.
"Oh."
"What are you thinking about?" Chen Siqi asked.
Lu Yanhe said: "My agent said something to me tonight, which touched me a little."
"What did she say?"
"It said a lot, it was very complicated, and it probably meant... It seemed like she wanted me to learn more, read more, and prepare for the future. No, that's not what it meant. I don't even know. How should I put it, it’s strange, it’s like she is preparing for me to develop independently in the future, she doesn’t seem to plan to take me with her forever,” Lu Yanhe said.
Chen Siqi asked doubtfully: "Are you sure?"
"I'm not sure either." Lu Yanhe shook his head, "I'm just not sure, I've been thinking about it."
< br>"If you don't understand, there will be some next time Just ask her face to face when you get the chance." Chen Siqi said, "But I think your agent is right. You will always have to develop independently in the future. Even if she is your agent from now on, you won't be able to do everything. They all rely on her.”
"I know, even if she has such an idea, she doesn't need to tell me so early, right? I just finished the college entrance examination." Lu Yanhe calmed down, "You are right, let's stop thinking about it now and ask her in person later. Okay."
"Well." Chen Siqi said, "If you want to read, just read. If you don't want to read, just turn off the live broadcast, otherwise there will be many people. Talking about you, you said you were pretending."
Hearing this, Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "I understand, so you are still watching my live broadcast?"
" Right, can't you?"
"No, no, of course, I'm just surprised, I didn't expect you to watch it."
"Anyway, I am idle." Chen Siqi said, "Otherwise, what else do you think I can do this summer vacation? Just because I am going to Jiangguang University, my dad has not had a good look on me these past two days. I look like an unfilial daughter, and Liu Wei'an is still fanning the flames, which makes me mad."
"Just bear with it, don't do it. I'm leaving soon."
"Isn't it because of this that I can endure it? I have endured it for so many years and don't want to cause trouble before I leave." After Chen Siqi said, "This summer vacation is really exciting. Boring. "
If Li Pengfei were here, he would probably slap his thigh and say no wonder you two can see each other.
Lu Yanhe didn't expect that Chen Siqi would find this summer vacation boring, and then he thought that she didn't even have a friend around her, so she had to spend money to hire someone to pretend to be her friend during her birthday.
As soon as he thought of this, by some strange coincidence, the thought that he had suppressed before popped up in his head again.
"How about we find something to do during this summer vacation."
"Huh?"
"I have nothing to do." Lu Yanhe said, "It's boring. Let's find something to do together."
Chen Siqi was surprised and asked: "What thing to do?"
Lu Yanhe said: "Didn't you say before that you want to make a magazine?"
"Ha, do you want the two of us to make a magazine?"
" It is probably difficult to create a physical magazine, but Li Pengfei gave me an idea before, saying "E-magazines don't cost much anyway. You can try making an e-magazine first," Lu Yanhe said, "What do you think?" Experience? Crazy." Chen Siqi complained.
Lu Yanhe said: "Since the summer vacation is so long, let's explore slowly to see what kind of magazine we want to make, and then start thinking of ways to do it."
Chen Siqi: "Are you serious?"
"I just feel that I am looking for something to do anyway, and I can still do something I like. Even if I don't succeed, it doesn't matter." Lu Yanhe said.
Chen Siqi: "Even if it is an electronic magazine, it still costs money."
"If you want to do it, I will talk to Yemai.com and see if they are willing to support it. I have this idea." Lu Yanhe said, "I have cooperation with Yemai.com. If they are willing to launch our electronic magazine on the website, then maybe we can Can you get production funds?"
Chen Siqi: "Are you sure? I suggest you not to do this. Even if Yemai.com finally gives you a production fund, this fund will be given to you by Lu Yanhe. If the magazine comes out and no one reads it, or it gets a lot of criticism and bad reviews, you will be the one affected.”
Lu Yanhe listened in surprise to what Chen Siqi said, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Then... let's forget it?"
Chen Siqi: "You really want to do it?"
"If you want to I really want to do it together.”
"Okay, I'll bear the production costs." Chen Siqi said, "As for how to make the electronic magazine and where to publish it, we'll talk about it later."
"Then I'll be responsible for it. Production funds?" Lu Yanhe asked.
He now has tens of thousands in savings.
Chen Siqi: "You are richer than me?"
Lu Yanhe: "..."
He is really embarrassed to say that he is richer than Chen Siqi.
Although this little rich woman has a tense relationship with her family, neither her biological father nor her stepmother have ever treated her badly when it comes to money. Liu Wei'an has always cultivated the image of a "loving mother" to the outside world, and will not be short of Chen Siqi in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Lu Yanhe thought for a while and said solemnly: "If the two of us are doing this together, then you cannot bear the production costs alone. Let's do it together. This is a matter for the two of us." Chen Siqi After hearing what Lu Yanhe said, he fell silent and didn't speak for several seconds.
"Okay, let's not talk so much on the phone. There are many people in your live broadcast room asking who you have been calling for so long." Chen Siqi said , "Let's meet and chat tomorrow."
Lu Yanhe smiled, nodded, and said, "Okay."
He looked at the camera in the live broadcast room and smiled.
He smiled at the person watching the live broadcast.
At the same time, many people saw Lu Yanhe’s smile.
Someone said: Oh my god, why do I feel that Lu Yanhe’s smile is just for me? Has my obsession with Lu Yanhe deepened? Mom, I don’t want to become a nymphomaniac.
……
Lu Yanhe turned off the live broadcast and was going to take a shower and go to bed.
As a result, when I was taking a shower, a lot of thoughts about magazines popped up in my head.
This thought came together and I couldn’t hold it down anymore.
Although Chen Siqi rejected the idea of asking Yemai.com to pay, Lu Yanhe decided to ask Xin Zixin first.
As soon as he came out of the shower, Lu Yanhe immediately went to get his mobile phone and sent a message to Xin Zixing: Sister Zixing, are you asleep?
Xin Zixing:? I just finished working overtime, what happened?
Lu Yanhe said: I have something to ask you.
Xin Zixing: What’s the matter?
Lu Yanhe asked: Can we chat on the phone?
Xin Zixing’s phone call came.
Lu Yanhe immediately answered the phone.
Xin Zixing asked: "What's the matter, come to me so late."
Lu Yanhe said: "I..."
The moment Lu Yanhe spoke in excitement, he was suddenly struck by a Surrounded by a strong sense of shame.
He wants to make an electronic magazine.
This is too bad a statement.
If he wasn't Lu Yanhe, Xin Zixing would probably hang up the phone immediately and call him crazy.
In the era when electronic magazines were most prosperous, this stuff was not very popular and it made no splash, let alone now.
Probably because Lu Yanhe had been silent for a long time, Xin Zixing was a little confused and asked: "Yan He, are you still there?"
"Sorry, Sister Zixing, I...I Suddenly I feel that what I want to tell you is a bit nonsense. "No." Lu Yanhe said, "But I still want to ask for your opinion."
"Okay, just say it, don't worry, I won't laugh at you no matter how ridiculous it is." You." There was a hint of teasing in Xin Zixing's tone.
Lu Yanhe took a deep breath and said: "I want to make an electronic magazine, and I want to do it with Yemai.com, and put the electronic magazine on Yemai.com for everyone to subscribe to. Okay, I've finished speaking, and I already feel a sense of embarrassment. Rushing up from the soles of my feet."
Xin Zixing was silent for a while.
“E-magazine?”
“Yes.” Lu Yanhe said, “But I also know that basically no one is making e-magazines now. I guess to your ears, there are some Strange, this is an idea of mine, and I don’t know if it can be realized. But you are the only person I know who has something to do with this, so I can only consult you, Sister Zi Xing.”
Xin Zi I will reply you immediately. I will think about the feasibility before replying to you.”
"Okay." Lu Yanhe felt inexplicably nervous, "Thank you, Sister Zixing."
-
After hanging up the phone, Xin Zixin was particularly surprised.
But it’s not that Lu Yanhe’s proposal is too outdated, but...how could it be such a coincidence? !
Xin Zixing's idea for the "City Travels" series actually includes a themed book.
Xin Zixing thought about putting this series of articles together and publishing a book.
I don’t know yet whether this can be realized, it’s just an idea of hers.
Xin Zixing was really surprised that Lu Yanhe suddenly proposed the idea of making an electronic magazine.
But Xin Zixing didn’t think it was impossible.
Whenever Lu Yanhe proposes this idea to another website or organization, others will immediately think that Lu Yanhe is whimsical, impossible, and going against the trend of the times.
But it happens that this place is the leaf vein network.
As Li Pengfei said to Lu Yanhe before, Yemai.com is a place where a large number of young people gather.
Ideas that cannot be realized elsewhere due to idealism or nicheness may be successful at Yemai.com.
The absolute number of users of Yemai.com cannot be compared with other websites, but the consumption power of one million literary and artistic young people gathered together may not be worse than that of 10 million ordinary people with different preferences.
It can be seen from the corridor chapter of "City Travels".
So far, this documentary has been viewed by more than three million people, which is an unprecedented achievement for a documentary with a production budget of only 50,000 yuan.
This amount of views alone has brought a lot of advertising revenue to Yemai.com.
The documentary does not have advertisements, but its carrier Yevei.com does.
For Yemai.com, the most important thing is that this planning has given Yemai.com an influential memory point on the entire network.
This not only helped Yemai.com attract some new users, but also helped Yemai.com expand its influence in the online world.
Xin Zixing thought to himself that Yemai.com originally had an e-reading section, which was developed from the very beginning of the website and is still in use today.
However, Yevei.com often purchases the electronic copyright of paper books from publishing organizations, and then lists them on Yevei.com.
In fact, there are not many electronic works published exclusively on Yemai.com.
If someone else had to do this, it would probably be even more difficult.
But this person is Lu Yanhe.
He is a well-known idol artist and a new student in Zhenhua that has attracted much attention recently. He has entered the honeymoon period with Yemai.com because of the series "City Travels". If he wants to do this, Xin Zixing feels that the top management may not agree. Of course, the premise is that the investment cannot be too much.
Xin Zixing thought seriously and walked to the corner of the street. When she saw the black car parked in the temporary parking space, she put away her thoughts, opened the door and got in.
As soon as the car door closed, Huang Kairen took her hand.
"What were you thinking about just now? I saw you walking all the way, looking worried."
"I'm not worried, I was thinking about something." Xin Zixing smiled at Huang Kairen Said, "Lu Yanhe contacted me just now."
"Why did he contact you?" Huang Kairen was a little surprised.
Xin Zixing: "He has an idea and wants to cooperate with our website. I am thinking about the feasibility of his idea."
Huang Kairen suddenly understood and nodded.
"He has been very popular recently. He has been searched every day for three days. How come he still has time and new ideas to cooperate with you?"
"He is very energetic." Xin Zixing said When I got here, I glanced out of the corner of my eye and said, "Why did you suddenly come back today?"
"I came back to shoot a commercial today, and I have to go back to the set as soon as I finish shooting tomorrow morning." Huang Kairen said, "So I can meet you tonight, but I didn't expect you to have to work overtime."
Huang Kairen's tone A little aggrieved.
"What can we do? There is a lot more work now." Xin Zixing said, "Should we go to the hotel or your home?"
Huang Kairen: "Let's go to the hotel. , there are paparazzi squatting next to my house.”
“Huh? You are filming outside, and there are paparazzi squatting next to your house?”
"Well." Huang Kairen said, "They may have received the news that I have returned to Yuming."
It is really difficult to keep the news of celebrity artists' whereabouts tightly nowadays.
Xin Zixing nodded and said, "You will put me down at the hotel later and I will walk over by myself instead of going in with you, so as not to be photographed."< br>
Huang Kairen hugged Xin Zixin’s waist and hummed.
-
Early the next morning, Lu Yanhe woke up in high spirits.
In fact, he is also an activist and starts making plans whenever he thinks of something.
Especially before going to bed last night, he had a lot of thoughts in his head. The first thing he did after getting up was to write down these thoughts.
After washing, he checked his phone again.
Xin Zixing has no comments.
Lu Yanhe was a little disappointed for a moment, but he also had some expectations for the news that Xin Zixing had not yet sent.
He sent a message to Chen Siqi and asked: Are you awake?
They didn’t come back.
Lu Yanhe probably didn’t wake up.
He cooked himself some noodles and then continued to organize and refine some of his ideas.
What's worse is that many of the magazines he once read in his memory have been blurred and he can't remember them clearly.
As for what kind of magazine he wants to make now, he is not very clear. It is purely because this idea may become a reality, and he has some instinctive excitement and excitement.
It wasn’t until nine o’clock in the morning that Chen Siqi replied to him: You got up too early.
Chen Siqi said: See you at half past ten. Find a place.
Lu Yanhe immediately started looking for a place.
Suddenly, at this time, Li Pengfei called.
"Old Lu, what are you doing at noon?"
"I have to meet Chen Siqi later." Lu Yanhe said.
"Ha, I was planning to ask you to play games. Forget it, I'll find someone else. However, have you and Chen Siqi seen each other too often recently? I'm asking you, you said you two haven't Together, I said, if each other If we like each other, let's be together. What's the point of being ambiguous all the time? Look, Zijun and I -"
"We only met because we wanted to talk about other things, so don't think too much about it." Lu Yanhe quickly stopped him. He went on.
Li Pengfei didn't believe it.
"What else can you talk about? Stop setting off smoke bombs."
Lu Yanhe: "...It's what I told you last time, to make a magazine. We both have ideas to put into practice. Really.”
“Really. False?" Li Pengfei still said in a disbelieving tone, "You are so tall, you even came up with such a serious excuse to chase Chen Siqi."
"Don't fart, believe it or not." He uttered a little curse word speechlessly.
Li Pengfei: "Then I'm here to listen. I want to see if you are trying to sell dog meat on sheep's heads."
Lu Yanhe: "..."
A minute later, Lu Yanhe sent a message to Chen Siqi : Li Pengfei knows that we are going to discuss making a magazine, and he also wants to come. Is that okay?
Chen Siqi: He can come whenever he wants. Why do you ask me?
Lu Yanhe: I don’t know if you want him to come.
Chen Siqi: It doesn’t matter to me whatever you want.
So, at half past ten, the three people met in a cafe on time.
It was early in the morning, the cafe had just opened, and there were no customers.
Lu Yanhe was wearing a mask, and the clerk did not recognize him as Lu Yanhe.
Chen Siqi ordered an extra cake as soon as he sat down.
"I'm so hungry, I didn't even eat breakfast," she said.
Chen Siqi is wearing a blue baseball cap today, with a plain face and no makeup. She is dressed casually. At first glance, she is not too dressed up, but despite this, she is still very beautiful, under the golden sunshine. , the fair skin exudes a porcelain-like delicacy.
Lu Yanhe's eyes couldn't help but stare at her for a long time, and then he saw Li Pengfei look at him with "What did I say?" and looked at him with evil intentions.
Lu Yanhe: "..."
