After a brief chat with Chen Ziyan, Lu Yanhe went to take the final exam for a course this semester. Everything went well.
After the exam, he carried his schoolbag and set off to the studio of Icefield Video.
The recording of "The Age of Idols" is jointly handled by two platforms, Beijing TV and Icefield Video. Because it is a weekly program, it is also rare to adopt the "chief director + dual team" production model to ensure quality. .
This episode that Lu Yanhe participated in happened to be recorded by Icefield Video.
Zou Dong and Wang Biao were waiting for him at the school gate.
When Wang Biao saw him, he immediately waved excitedly, with a bright smile on his face, called Brother Lu, and ran over with a glass of iced latte.
"Brother Lu, how did you do in the exam?"
"Not bad." Lu Yanhe responded with a smile.
There should be less classes this semester, and he is not under so much pressure to prepare for the exam, so he is very well prepared.
Wang Biao said: "That's good. I'm also worried that the voices on the Internet will affect your exam status."
"This kind of thing won't happen anymore." Lu Yanhe said, "It seems that such doubts come every few months."
"But this time it's mostly Ma Zhiyuan's fans who are causing trouble!" Wang Biao immediately said angrily, “They were all picked out by some media and brought online. The people who have the most influence on the rhythm are all fans of Ma Zhiyuan."
Lu Yanhe: "That's okay, we will meet the real chapter tonight anyway."
"You don't have to. Are you angry?" Wang Biao looked at Lu Yanhe in shock and was surprised by Lu Yanhe's reaction.
Lu Yanhe said: "I'm angry, but not that angry. It's basically something that can be expected. From the beginning, he didn't want me to perform a combined stage with Li Zhibai. Later, after their vote , we still have to perform on this stage, he must be unhappy, and now there is a black spot on my side that he can take advantage of, of course he will seize the opportunity.”
Wang Biao: "Then we won't fight back?"
"What will we fight back against?" Lu Yanhe asked.
Wang Biao hesitated, hemmed and hawed, and thought for a long time without knowing what to say.
At times like this, it seems like fighting back doesn’t work.
The focus of the attack is that Lu Yanhe wrote three songs in one breath, and the quality of the songs is definitely not high. Therefore, unless Lu Yanhe releases the songs at this time, there is no point in saying more.
Only then did Wang Biao understand why Lu Yanhe just said, "Anyway, we will meet the real chapter tonight."

Lu Yanhe and his party arrived at the recording site at 11 o'clock in the morning.
The lounge is ready.
Xu Fanxing, as the special person assigned to him by the program team, was waiting at the door early, picked up Lu Yanhe and his party and went to the lounge.
Lu Yanhe asked: "Sister Fanxing, have Li Zhibai and Yan Liang arrived?"
"Yan Liang has arrived, but Li Zhibai has not yet, and is on the way." Xu Fanxing said, "However, Yan Liang is now accepting The preparation is expected to be over in half an hour. "
"It's okay, I don't have anything urgent to ask him for," Lu Yanhe said.
Xu Fanxing was originally worried about Lu Yanhe's condition, but she was relieved to see that Lu Yanhe had been in good condition since he entered the house and had not been affected by online public opinion at all.
She reminded and said: "Yan He, I heard that at three o'clock in the morning last night, Ma Zhiyuan suddenly contacted the director team and wanted to make changes to his stage."
"Huh?" Lu Yanhe was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
Xu Fanxing said: "However, we don't know what changes were made. It's very confidential. They rehearsed it again early this morning. The scene was very confidential and no information was revealed."< br>
Lu Yanhe came back to his senses, nodded, and said, "Okay, I understand, Sister Fanxing, it's okay."
Probably Ma Zhiyuan has prepared some "secret weapon" for his show ", so it's so mysterious.
Lu Yanhe entered his lounge.
Xu Fanxing asked: "Shall I bring you the lunch box now?"
"Okay." Lu Yanhe nodded.
Xu Fanxing is leaving now.
Lu Yanhe sat down on the sofa and took out his laptop.
Zou Dong and Wang Biao sat aside quietly.
Lu Yanhe held his laptop, opened the document of "Wulin Gaiden", and revised the script for the third episode.
About fifteen minutes later, the lunch box was delivered.
Although Lu Yanhe did not make any requests, the program team still arranged a rich arrangement.
The three of them brought seven dishes and one soup.
“So rich!” Lu Yanhe was a little surprised, “Thank you, Sister Fanxing.”
In fact, it is indeed very rich. This is all delivered from the cafeteria of Icefield Video Company, not takeaway.
However, Xu Fanxing knew that compared with other artists, Lu Yanhe's standards could only be said to be very ordinary.
Lu Yanhe was the only team that did not make any request for lunch boxes.
Of course, this does not mean that the request is too much. Yan Liang's request is very simple. He doesn't want spicy food and needs a soup. This is a normal request.
Some people demand so many things that the cafeteria chef even scolds them.
Xu Fanxing said: "Yan He, please prepare a little. We will have an interview here at 1:30 in the afternoon. It is expected to take about thirty to forty-five minutes. The interview will be live broadcast and will be shown to netizens simultaneously. , to warm up for the evening live broadcast, this is the outline of the questions. They were originally regular questions, but because For this morning’s public opinion, I have temporarily added a few questions about this public opinion. You can take a look at it in advance. I have already sent these questions to Sister Ziyan, and Sister Ziyan said there is no problem.”
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Thank you."
Xu Fanxing left.
Lu Yanhe said to Zou Dong and Wang Biao: "Let's eat something quickly. After Li Zhibai and Yan Liang come over later, we will move together again, rest for a while, and then we will interview, interview Do it when it’s over There are many things to do, including styling and photo shoots.”
“Yeah,” Wang Biao said immediately, “Brother Xiao Lu, I’ve already made peace with Sister Fanxing, and I’ll keep up with everyone. Process.”

Li Xiaobin has a final exam in the afternoon.
It's the end of June. After taking the last few exams, it's time for summer vacation.
However, for others, summer vacation is a time to rest and go out for fun, but to Li Xiaobin, it is two months during which he can go to work and make money.
He has already taken on three tutoring jobs, filling his summer vacation to the brim.
In this busy life, his only outlet is music.
What he is most worried about today is the live broadcast of "Idol Era".
Before the exam, his mother called and asked him if he would be back for dinner that evening.
Li Xiaobin wanted to watch "The Age of Idols", so he said go back.
If you watch it in the dormitory, your roommates are playing games, watching games... there are all kinds of noises, and there is no quiet environment.
As soon as his mother heard what he said, there was a smile in her tone and asked: "Then what do you want to eat? Mom will cook it for you."
Li Xiaobin said that he wanted to eat sweet and sour pork ribs.
This is a dish he has loved eating since childhood.
"Oh, after so many years, the taste still hasn't changed." His mother muttered and hung up the phone happily.
Li Xiaobin entered the examination room.
He didn't expect that he would see Chen Siqi in this examination room.
The star classmate in the school.
Lu Yanhe’s girlfriend.
Chief editor of "Jump Up".
Chen Siqi was sitting by the window, wearing headphones, reading and reviewing quietly.
After Li Xiaobin sat down, he heard someone whispering about something around him.
Listening carefully, it turned out that they were talking about Chen Siqi and Lu Yanhe.
Li Xiaobin couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous.
Many people in the school seem to be wondering why Lu Yanhe is with Chen Siqi.
One is a big star, and the other is just an ordinary, somewhat beautiful female college student.
Everyone assumed that her status as editor-in-chief of "Jump Up" was due to Lu Yanhe's influence and had nothing to do with her.
Although Li Xiaobin didn't know why Lu Yanhe liked Chen Siqi, every time he saw Chen Siqi, she was either reading a book, discussing something with someone, or sitting in the library or coffee shop typing on the keyboard.
He has never seen a game or movie or TV show screen from Chen Siqi's laptop screen.
This alone makes Li Xiaobin admire him. Suddenly, someone let out a surprised cry.
Li Xiaobin turned his head and looked in surprise.
The girl sitting on his left said: "Ma Zhiyuan is the connotation of yin and yang, Lu Yanhe, right?"
Li Xiaobin was stunned.
He looked back at Chen Siqi.
The girl released it to the public: "... I spent a lot of money to buy the copyright for this new song of mine. I hired teacher Park Hye-lan from South Korea to re-arrange the song, and also hired the top choreographer Three Styles The teacher choreographed a very cool dance for us. Once we got to the stage, not counting the cost of dancers rehearsing with me, we already spent hundreds of thousands of dollars. , to prepare a stage, especially a stage that wants to shock everyone, it takes a long time to prepare. It cannot be done casually in a week or two, and I will not put that kind of thing into place. It would be too perfunctory to show it to everyone on the stage of "Idol Era". I will not do such perfunctory things to fans."
After listening to Ma Zhiyuan's words, everyone in the classroom looked at each other in shock.
Those who know Li Xiaobin very well about "The Age of Idols" don't need to make up what Ma Zhiyuan said before. They can already clearly hear his connotation of Lu Yanhe from this passage.
In the morning, so many people questioned Lu Yanhe about writing songs too quickly and seeking speed rather than quality. In the afternoon, Ma Zhiyuan said such things in an interview, which is hard not to be reminded of.
“Lu Yanhe’s interview is over. It’s a pity. Otherwise, we might still see Lu Yanhe’s response.”
“What’s the point of responding to a villain like Ma Zhiyuan? , What else can he do besides taking advantage of others? Lu Yanhe has already thrown him away."
"The two of them have different tracks, okay? Then Lu Yanhe has never been Ma Zhiyuan's opponent on the road of becoming an idol artist." The person who spoke was obviously a fan of Ma Zhiyuan.
The two people started arguing.
Li Xiaobin looked in the direction of Chen Siqi again.
Wearing headphones and concentrating on her book, she seemed not to hear these movements.
Obviously he didn't know her, but at this moment he felt inexplicably lucky. It was a good thing that she didn't hear this at this time.

Ryu Zhiyin walked into the interview room.
She smiled and greeted everyone.
The host said: "Zhiyin, come and say hello to everyone!"
"Hi, hello everyone, I am Liu Zhiyin." She sat down in front of the host in a familiar manner .
"Zhiyin hasn't started to do the look for tonight's performance, has she?"
"Not yet, because I have to be interviewed first." Ryu Jiyin said, "The look for tonight must be kept secret for the time being and cannot be revealed."
The host nodded, “Zhiyin is so excited for this dance. How long did it take to prepare the station?"
Liu Zhiyin laughed and said, "Three weeks."
"Are you ready in three weeks?" You are known as a hardworking girl. I heard that you often practice dancing until early in the morning.”
"Yes, but three weeks is a long time to prepare a stage." Ryu Ji-yin said, "I have to prepare two stages a month. If it were not because this is the last stage in the first half of the year, I would not give this stage three Weekly preparation time, we are professional artists, and we do not participate in a show once in a while, we must You need to make good use of your time and allow enough practice time for each stage.”
“Is the stage for this performance a new song?”
“No, it is based on a song I performed. I adapted my favorite song and made a new arrangement and choreography.”
"Ma Zhiyuan just said that he built a new stage and hired top arrangers and choreographers to design the stage, which cost hundreds of thousands. What about you?"
"Me? I'm not that That’s a lot of money.” Liu Zhiyin pretended to be helpless and stuck out her tongue, “I hired arrangers and choreographers that I’m very familiar with to polish this. Although they are not as famous as the teachers Ma Zhiyuan works with, they have worked with me for a long time and are very familiar with my strengths and weaknesses. Moreover, this time they also made a creative highlight to the greatest extent based on my ability. Can’t wait for everyone to see it”
"Besides your own performance tonight, whose performance are you most looking forward to?"
"The performances of Li Zhibai, Yan Liang and Lu Yanhe." Liu Zhiyin said without hesitation.
"Huh? Why?"
"Because we are familiar with them. We have recorded two seasons of "Young Days" together, and we will soon record the third season together." Ryu Ji-in laughed. "And I've known them for so long, but I've basically never seen them perform together. I'm very curious."
......
Artists walked into the interview room one after another.
Everything they say is watched by millions of viewers, and any sentence can become extremely popular and spread online.
Topics are hotly searched one after another.
Ma Zhiyuan connoted that Lu Yanhe was perfunctory with fans.
Liu Zhiyin mocked Ma Zhiyuan for taking ridiculously long time to prepare for the stage.
Li Zhibai sneered "haha".
Yan Liang asked expressionlessly: "Didn't "The Idol Era" rely on the stage to speak? When did the mouth speak?"
......
The program has not been broadcast yet. Since its release, "Idol Era" has already become a hit all over the Internet.
This kind of popularity has made everyone in the industry realize one thing. Tonight's live broadcast may explode.
Icefield Video quickly found technical personnel to ensure that if there were too many viewers at night, the live broadcast would not crash.
-
Li Xiaobin finished the exam and left the examination room.
Chen Siqi walked in front of him.
She had put on her headphones again, as if the whole world had nothing to do with her.
Almost everyone around Li Xiaobin is discussing the gossip of "Idol Era" - many people may not have watched this show, but due to the popularity today, especially after going through a final exam, everyone needs one thing to divert your attention.
Li Xiaobin left quickly without any attachment to their discussion. He got on the bus and prepared to go home.
When he first chose a university, he chose Jiangguang University without any hesitation.
Actually, with his scores, he can go to a better university.
But Li Xiaobin felt that if it was just better, it would be better to stay in the city where his home is and be close to his mother.
When I got home, as soon as I opened the door, I smelled the familiar smell of sweet and sour pork ribs.
"Mom, I'm back! It smells so good!"
"You're hungry, hurry up and wash your hands, dinner will be ready soon." Mom's voice came from the kitchen.
Li Xiaobin smiled, responded, went to the bathroom, passed the living room, and saw a family photo taken when he was a child on the shelf next to the TV.
At that time, he was only three or four years old. He was held by his father and mother and stood in front of a rockery in a park.
My mother had a fashionable perm and wore a pink suit. At that time, my mother worked in a foreign trade company and was a rare female white-collar worker in that era.
Dad was wearing a dark green suit, with 28-part hair, handsome, and a smile on his face.
Li Xiaobin can no longer remember much of what happened at that time. Fortunately, there is a photo like this that reminds him of the happy childhood he once had.
My mother always said that he looked very much like his father when he was young.
Looking at myself in the mirror now, and then at my father in this photo, I can vaguely see the similarities.
Li Xiaobin recalled the memory like a lingering dream. His father was driving a car and singing along with the radio. He was sitting in the back, and the melody was engraved in his memory.
What song is it?
Over the years, he has been looking for it for a long time, but has not found it.
"What are you doing in a daze? Have you washed your hands? It's time to eat!" Mom came out of the kitchen with the dishes and said immediately when she saw him in a daze.
Li Xiaobin came to his senses, let out an ooh, and quickly went to the bathroom.
The guilty smirk on his face made his mother stunned for a moment.
The setting sun shines in from the window.
At that moment, it was like the person from twenty years ago had passed through the long corridor of time and came back to her.
She was in a trance for a while, and then came to her senses.
What are you thinking about? It’s been so many years.
But this kid really looks more and more like his dad.
His mother put down the dishes, walked into the kitchen, turned her back, raised the back of her hand, and wiped her eyes.
The setting sun shrouded dimly from the window, making her back slightly rickety.
She knew she wasn't actually crying.
So many years have passed, and all the tears that need to be shed have been shed long ago.
In fact, she just had a little moisture at the corners of her eyes.
Just a little bit. (End of this chapter)
