Unboxing, Director!

Chapter 9 CCTV Premiere
"!!!"

What is this?!
Lu Jiang was suddenly shocked.

The appearance of the two translucent treasure chests in my mind was really strange.

Fortunately, a stream of information flashed through his mind quickly, and he knew the situation.

It turns out that these two treasure chests came from Fan Binbin.

The rule of the golden finger: If the person whose desire is satisfied satisfies Lu Jiang’s own needs one day, Lu Jiang can get another reward.

In other words, at the beginning Lu Jiang helped Fan Binbin and got a blue treasure chest.

Today, Fan Binbin helped Lu Jiang again, introduced him to Li Chao, and facilitated the cooperation.

According to the golden finger rules, Lu Jiang will receive a reward again, and this time the reward is of the same quality as the reward he received from Fan Binbin earlier, and it is double the blue treasure chest of the same level.

As for why it is translucent, it is because although this cooperation was promoted by Fan Binbin, the cooperation did not produce any substantial results that were beneficial to Lu Jiang, so the treasure chest cannot be opened for the time being.

The treasure chest will not drop completely solid until the event is successfully completed.

Lu Jiang was only happy about this.

After all, getting two blue treasure chests for free can save you a lot of trouble.

At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh.

So far, almost all of the high-level treasure chests that he had obtained or not obtained were related to her.

This Fan Binbin is truly worthy of being a person with great luck.

This has become a treasure chest cow.

You have to take good care of it in the future
Once the matter was finalized, Li Chao quickly took action.

Adjust audio and video formats, place orders and prepare goods, etc.

In order to maximize CCTV's publicity effect, the album must be released as much as possible before the program is broadcast.

Time is still very tight, because the CCTV program will be broadcast in 16 days, and the factory production will take at least ten days, so he has to keep an eye on the progress.

There wasn't much for Lu Jiang to do, so all he had to do next was prepare some flat photos.

Speaking of which, although Lu Jiang is not extremely handsome, he is actually quite good-looking.

As an actor, he may be a little inferior to top-notch looks like Takeshi Kaneshiro and Daniel Wu, but as a singer, he is much better than Sun Nan and others.

Lu Jiang knows very well that a singer’s appearance will greatly affect sales.

Therefore, Lu Jiang is very attentive to flat portrait photography.

The currently popular Hong Kong and Taiwan style, the non-mainstream Korean style of medium and long hair in the 00s, and the top style of the 10s.

He even tried the tough guy style and the European and American demon style.

Finally, after discussions with Fan Binbin, Li Chao and others, the common style of the 00s was determined.

That is, side-parted bangs at the eyebrow level, with a little fluffy perm and dyeing.

This is somewhat similar to the hairstyle of Jay Chou and JJ Lin in the 00s.

This style seems a bit retro and old-fashioned to Lu Jiang.

But it was just the right fashion forward in 98, and both of them loved it.

"Maybe you'll start a trend!"

Fan Binbin looked at the brand new Lu Jiang, his eyes full of light.

Lu Jiang took off his wig and said, "It's not certain whether it will be popular or not."

"It will definitely be a hit. There is no song that I don't like that won't be a hit!"

"Then I'll lend you some good words."

After finishing the styling, Lu Jiang then started to set his sights on Lu Jianguo.

"Fairy Tale" was the hit song of 2005.

Although the results of 98 may not be replicated in 05, Lu Jiang feels that he still needs to prepare more money.

The current 15 is only enough to prepare about 7 tapes and CDs.

I guess it’s far from enough.

So you need to prepare more money.

However, it is still a bit difficult to ask my father Comrade Lu Jianguo for backup funds.

Mainly tired.

"Giving autographs will be the norm from now on. How can you possibly show off your awful handwriting? Practice now! You won't be allowed to sleep until you've mastered it!"

Comrade Lu Jianguo had a serious expression, but his fatherly love overflowed the screen.

As early as when Lu Jiang told him that he wanted to release a song, he started designing a signature for Lu Jiang. To date, he has designed more than ten versions in total.

Then, after hearing the finished song, Lu Jianguo asked Lu Jiang to choose a signature without saying a word, and then began to supervise the practice on the spot.

"Practice your signature until it's almost perfect, then sign these 50 copies. I need them tomorrow."

Lao Lu then pushed over 50 copies of the first batch of "Fairy Tale" albums.

Needless to say, this is definitely for giving to relatives and friends. Lao Lu just loves to show off, there's nothing we can do about it.

Lu Jiang laughed: "I don't know if it will become popular yet."

"When doing things, the worst thing to do is to pop champagne at halftime, and the worst thing to do is to have no confidence at all!"

Lao Lu said earnestly, "As long as you feel good about it, no matter what the result is, it's a success!"

So this is why your startup never succeeded?

However, Lu Jiang did not directly refute, but just agreed: "Okay, I'll sign it for you today."

"That's right. You can take a taxi to school tomorrow. I need the car."

"You're going to start delivering albums door to door tomorrow?"

"Sending it early will reveal your true face. When you become famous, we will know how to deal with you, right?"

".Makes sense!"

Lu Jiang nodded, then asked, "What about the money?"

"Go to the safe, take it yourself, but remember, don't rush to win all your money, this is all the money we have!"

"I know."

Of course Lu Jiang understood this principle.

These days are not like the later times. You can tell the success or failure of something by looking at the network traffic data in a few days at the latest.

Now we can only make inferences based on the sales feedback.

So even if he has money, he will have to issue it for at least half a week or a week before expanding production.

"Well, I'm going to sleep." Lao Lu went straight back to his room. He had to travel a lot tomorrow and needed to conserve his energy.

Lu Jiang opened the safe and took a look. He saw 350,000 yuan. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and then started practicing calligraphy with peace of mind.

The time soon came to the 20th.

At 9 o'clock that evening, Lu Jiang, Fan Binbin, Li Chao and several new employees of Li Chao's record company gathered together.

There are 60 minutes left before the latest episode of "China Music Television 8 Minutes" starts.

Activist Fan Binbin stood up and greeted everyone:

"Everyone, stop for a moment. Let me say this again. We're going to call CCTV and ask them to replay this. Although our power is limited with just a few of us, if we succeed even once, it will be a huge victory for Lu Jiang and for us. The time is almost up, so let's rehearse and take action!"

According to information revealed by Li Chao, China Music Television will arrange replays based on the telephone feedback on the songs.

For example, if the public response is enthusiastic, the station will arrange to broadcast it again in a few days, or reschedule the program, such as "How Much Do You Know About Music", "Music Big Stage", "Music Television City" and other programs in other time slots of the same station.

In theory, if the public feedback is excellent and the station can really make it into the full program arrangement, then the exposure effect goes without saying.

Of course this is only theoretical.

But this did not affect everyone's enthusiasm.

For Fan Binbin, this is the closest opportunity to become famous during his time as an amateur.

For Li Chao and others, this was a turning point.

For Lu Jiang, this is money.

So except for the few people present here, everyone has already called their relatives and friends.

In short, there is only one task today, which is to gather as much strength as possible to improve the reputation of "Fairy Tale".

After Fan Binbin finished greeting everyone, they applauded. Then Li Chao raised his hand: "I'll go first!"

"I'll be the operator."

Fan Binbin cleared his throat, made the number six with his hand, and put it to his ear. He pinched his throat and asked, "Hello, this is China Music Television 60 Minutes."

Li Chao used his phone as a prop and started crying: "Hello, I want to ask if you can play the song "Fairy Tale" again. I really like it. I think it expresses my feelings and brings me strength."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Before she could finish her words, Fan Binbin raised his hand to stop her: "Your crying is so fake!"

"I told you I can't act, but you insisted on making me sound like a weepy person." Li Chao looked at Lu Jiang resentfully, but Lu Jiang just laughed.

"Try again, use a normal tone!" Fan Binbin continued to encourage.

Li Chao also reorganized his words: "Hello, the song just now is called Fairy Tale, right? My wife and I both like it very much. We both agree that this song is the best song of the year. Can you play it a few more times?"

"That's right!"

Fan Binbin was very satisfied and continued, "It's my turn."

She coughed and cleared her throat, then spoke into the microphone in Cantonese, "Leihou, I'm your audience. I'd like to ask if you could play the song 'Hot Hands' a few more times. We Cantonese people love it! Also, the singer's name is 'Shen Mo Ming Ji'? She's so beautiful! My boyfriend loves her so much!"

"Stop, stop, stop!"

This time it was Lu Jiang who spoke up to stop him.

"Is there something wrong?" Fan Binbin looked confused.

Li Chao rushed to explain: "Your boyfriend is so abnormal, he actually likes male singers?"

Lu Jiang laughed and said, "Did you miss a word in the middle?"

Fan Binbin was completely embarrassed: "Oh, sorry, I forgot to mention it! Next, is the singer called Shenmo Mingji? And who is that girl? Is her name Fan Binbin? She's so beautiful!"

"Ha, it turns out that all this energy is put on myself!" Li Chao exclaimed.

The others laughed, and the tense atmosphere began to relax.

Lu Jiang also smiled and shook his head: "Let's not make it too complicated. Just say you want to replay it and listen to it again. Don't add any more drama. It's easy to make mistakes if you add too much."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and then practiced one by one in order.

After one round ended, Fan Binbin asked everyone to arrange the order for making the formal calls later.

Li Chao was the first to fight, followed by Fan Binbin, and then it took their turn one by one.

Wait until the time comes to 9:08.

After the opening music of "Music TV 60 Minutes" sounded, host Li Jun began hosting.

After an opening speech and the playing of an unknown song, the main topic did not come until 9:25.

".Next, please watch new singer Lu Jiang perform the love song "Fairy Tale," which he wrote, directed, performed, and composed himself."

"Just saying these prefixes is enough to scare many people!"

Li Chao couldn't help but sigh, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Lu Jiang was still full of disbelief.

"Just get used to it from now on."

Lu Jiang smiled slightly, and then the seven and a half minute full version of "Fairy Tale" MV began to play.
Then the screen went black.

Under the spotlight, a grand piano was pushed onto the stage.

Lu Jiang appeared in formal attire and bowed.
“Happiness and
Happiness is

ending
"

The last note falls.

Fan Binbin's monologue sounded:

"When the whole world ignores me, you are the only one who cannot ignore me!"

At the end of the picture, it freezes on a close-up of Lu Jiang and Fan Binbin's faces, one slowly opening his eyes and the other slowly closing his eyes, just like the original version.

At this point, "Fairy Tale", the memory of the post-80s generation and the representative of pure love MVs, which swept the Chinese music scene in 2005, completed its debut in this time and space.

I don’t know how effective it will be yet.

But Fan Binbin is already crying: "Why am I so fat on TV?"

"Hahaha"

Everyone laughed wildly.

Only Lu Jiang was clear-headed: "Call quickly!"

Li Chao made a call immediately.

The others also stopped smiling and held their phones tightly.

Fan Binbin forced himself to hold back his tears and prepared to make a phone call.

But soon, Li Chao frowned: "I can't get through!"
