This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 400: Grand Hall Lu!

These words had been on Lu Ran's mind for a long time.

Ever since the fireball became popular, Lu Ran saw this sentence online and felt that it was very suitable for Wang Jiayue.

He planned to find an opportunity to say this to Wang Jiayue.

He finally found an opportunity.

Even though it was just sending comments instead of shouting them out loud from the audience, Lu Ran already felt his wish was fulfilled.

Then, a group of silly netizens quickly followed suit, all sending this sentence in the bullet screen.

In an instant, all the comments in the live stream chat became this sentence.

The screen was filled with the phrase, "Hui has two mouths, Yue is Wang Jiayue."

Wang Jiayue, who was singing, almost burst out laughing when she saw a series of comments floating across the screen.

He managed to control his facial expressions through sheer professionalism as a singer.

Chen Ke, who was standing to the side, couldn't hold back and covered her mouth to force herself to suppress her laughter.

When netizens saw Wang Jiayue's expression, they became even more excited.

"Look, look, that's professionalism. They're holding back their laughter, and they can still sing so well."

"Jiayue is indeed quite capable."

"Stop causing trouble, you're affecting Jiayue's singing."

"Who caused this trouble?"

"Of course it's Lu Ran."

Wang Jiayue used her clear voice to forcefully control the situation and finally brought the rhythm of the live broadcast back.

"Red Bean" was released in 1998 and remains a popular song.

The melody and lyrics are beautiful and delicate.

Another name for red beans is love-longing seeds.

Listening to this song, some netizens couldn't help but be affected by its emotions.

But sometimes...

I'd rather choose to linger and not let go.

"Wait until you've seen all the scenery~"

Perhaps you will stay with me and watch the gentle flow of time.

In the end, maybe you will, or maybe you won't.

Tang Yufeng listened to the song with a look of complete rapture.

After Wang Jiayue finished singing, Tang Yufeng immediately said, "The lyrics of this song are well written. I like the line 'I haven't yet cooked red beans into a lingering wound for you.' The melody isn't that avant-garde, but the arrangement is very interesting. Lu Ran, is the arrangement of this song only piano and strings?"

Tang Yufeng listened attentively the whole time.

The accompaniment consists of a piano throughout, interspersed with violins and cellos.

There are no other musical instruments besides these.

The use of this instrument is perfectly suited to the theme of the song.

If we're talking about what's particularly outstanding about the song "Red Bean," then there really isn't.

The strength of this song lies in the perfect fusion of its lyrics, composition, and arrangement.

When it's necessary to convey a certain emotion to the audience, all three elements perfectly convey the same emotion and complement each other.

Lu Ran nodded: "Yes."

Tang Yufeng gave a thumbs up: "Not bad!"

Lian Xinghan laughed and said, "You're such a good writer. I feel this song could become a hit."

Tang Yufeng: "I think so too."

Both are top songwriters in the industry, and you can tell the difference between a good and bad song.

For a song to become a hit, it needs four elements: a catchy melody, a universal emotional theme, excellent production, and finally, the performance of a top-tier, renowned singer.

The first three points of "Red Bean" have already been met, and as for the fourth point, it is only a matter of time for Wang Jiayue.

It all depends on how hard Lu Ran pushes against her from behind.

Wang Jiayue was flattered by the praise from the two senior colleagues.

"Thank you, Teacher Tang. Thank you, Teacher Lian."

Tang Yufeng then asked, "Would you be interested in cooperating with me?"

Wang Jiayue was stunned for a moment, and her gaze subconsciously turned to Lu Ran on the screen.

Is this a viable collaboration?
It's not that I don't want to, it's just that this isn't appropriate.

Lu Ran said irritably, "I asked you to say a few more words, but you just keep getting more and more excited. Let's talk about the cooperation privately."

Tang Yufeng immediately laughed and said, "Yes, yes, let's talk about it in private."

He was attracted to Wang Jiayue's voice.

This voice is simply exceptional.

He hadn't realized that Wang Jiayue's singing had been limited before, but this song, "Red Bean," perfectly showcased the unique qualities of her voice.

"Is Jiang Yaofeng blind? He didn't even bring Lu Ran to the Future King of Singers competition, let alone Wang Jiayue."

Tang Yufeng mentally complained.

Lu Ran then stated directly: "Tomorrow at noon, 'Red Bean' will be officially released on major music platforms. The preliminary rounds of the three amateur tracks have concluded. Please follow Lu Ran's fan club official account for further updates on the competition schedule."

As soon as Lu Ran finished speaking, the live broadcast of the fan meeting ended.

Netizens quickly flooded various platforms.

"The fan meeting went crazy!"

"Wang Jiayue's first performance of Red Bean!"

"Tang Yufeng took the initiative to invite Wang Jiayue to cooperate!"

Will we see a reconciliation between Xingyao Media and Lu Ran?

The topics quickly rose to the top of the trending searches.

A recording of Wang Jiayue's live stream singing "Red Bean" was also uploaded online by netizens.

Everyone was immediately awestruck after hearing it.

"This song is great!" "Lu Ting really put a lot of effort into producing this album."

Wang Jiayue became an instant sensation; her song hadn't even been released yet, but her video had already gone viral online.

Countless netizens are waiting for the official version to be launched on the platform.

After all, the live stream recording has more noise in it, so to enjoy the best listening experience, you definitely have to listen to the official version.

In addition, related terms such as Xingyao Media and Lu Ran also became trending topics.

This time, Tang Yufeng participated in Lu Ran's fan meeting recording, and netizens are discussing whether there is anything fishy going on.

In the entertainment industry, profit comes first.

Is there really no possibility of reconciliation between Xingyao Media and Lu Ran?
Some netizens believe that it's not impossible if the money is right.

But some netizens saw it very clearly.

"There is absolutely no way that Xingyao Media and Lu Ran can reconcile. These two companies are not on the same path, so how could they possibly reconcile?"

"Given Director Lu's personality, would he really team up with Xingyao Media to make money off fans' wallets?"

"The premise of reconciliation is that the two companies share the same values, but then Lu Ran would no longer be Lu Ran, and Xingyao Media would no longer be Xingyao Media."

"I think this was something Second Master did on his own initiative."

The numerous topics and discussions made Lu Ran's fan meeting just as popular as those hit music variety shows.

If there's anything lacking, it's only the contestants' fame.

Lu Ran's team doesn't have many famous players, so they can't generate much buzz.

This is all normal.

This is only the preliminary round of the amateur track. If these contestants can generate buzz, that would be amazing.

It's reasonable that the other contestants, aside from a few who have already gained popularity, don't have much buzz.

The fan meeting will truly explode when the top ten in both tracks are announced.

At that time, all twenty singers were certainly quite good.

Just then, Lu Ran posted a Weibo post.

"The public service advertisements that were recently shown during Lu Ran's fan meeting have been well-received. Some friends have expressed their desire for wider dissemination. Therefore, I hereby announce that all public service advertisements produced and broadcast by our company are now available for free licensing. Any platform, program, or individual may use them for free. We hope to use these advertisements to warm the hearts of more people through more channels. We also welcome everyone to participate in the dissemination of public service and let positive energy continue to thrive."

Below the text, Lu Ran directly included several links, which were direct links to cloud storage.

When you click on it, you'll find a video file of a public service advertisement.

In addition to videos, there are also some project files, which make it easy to re-edit and produce later.

"Lord Lu is truly impressive!"

"Based on Director Lu's attitude, we must support him!"

"Lu Ran has already granted free licenses for these variety shows like 'Hip Hop Club,' can you keep up with that?"

"I just want to see if everyone can keep up."

Now, it's the variety show production teams' turn to get restless.

You used to say that it was too late to film, too costly, and unnecessary. But what about now?

Lu Ran has already filmed it, and he's given free authorization to play it anytime. So, are you going to release it or not?

"What does Lu Ran mean by this? You think you're so high and mighty?!"

"Don't worry about it. If we don't release it, we don't release it. What would happen if we released it now? The netizens' attention will only last for a while, and then it will be fine."

"Who's crazy enough to put this on? We're an entertainment program. Does Lu Ran even know what entertainment is?"

"Isn't it enough that his fan meeting has stolen so much of our attention? What else does he want to do?"

The three days of Lu Ran's fan meeting livestream happened to fall on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, which are times when everyone has more free time.

Lu Ran gained a lot of attention in the past three days, causing the data of other variety shows to decline.

Especially on the hip-hop side, even the director was a little unhappy with Lu Ran.

This director is also a hip-hop enthusiast, otherwise he wouldn't have made this show.

One of the mentors he originally wanted to invite was Qi Xingze, but Qi Xingze failed to get the job.

The hip-hop show took a long time to finally air.

Now Lu Ran is pulling this stunt.

My hip-hop group is so fashionable and trendy, how could we possibly put on public service advertisements?

Am I still real?
"We need to think of a way to boost the show's popularity for the next episode!"

The director of the hip-hop club made a decision.

The next morning, Sun Kai, the manager of Douyin's operations department, arrived at the office.

He took the real data from Lu Ran's fan club and looked at it carefully before smiling.

The concert was indeed a great success.

Lu Ran's fan meeting brought a lot of new users to Douyin.

that's enough.

In today's internet age, users are money.

"This fan meeting has great potential."

Sun Kai called Lu Ran.

"Lu Ran, the fan meeting was a great success. What are your plans for the future?"

Lu Ran: "Let's continue the live stream. There are too many people signing up, and I don't know how long it will take."

Sun Kai asked, "What do you think about turning the fan meeting into a real variety show?"

Sun Kai was thinking about this.

I get two million viewers when I broadcast live. If I turned it into a variety show and performed in a studio, how many people would watch?
Lu Ran: "This won't work. People are watching the live stream environment. If you turn it into a variety show, it won't have the same feel. What's the difference between it and other talent shows?"

Variety shows cost a lot of money. You have to take care of the meals and accommodations for so many contestants. Even if you don't take care of those, organizing such large-scale offline events is still a troublesome matter.

The key issue is that it's a thankless task.

Lu Ran knew that the reason everyone was discussing it was because the fan meeting was being held in a live broadcast room.

Sun Kai said somewhat sadly, "But I think this space is too small. I want to make it bigger."

It's so frustrating not being able to spend money.
