Chapter 422 We must thank one person: Chen Jincheng!
Sujiang City has become the focus of online attention this week, and the sensation caused by a Phoenix Legend concert has also attracted everyone's attention.
Before this, no one would have imagined that a duo of singers considered to be washed up would cause such a huge stir.
in the hotel.
Chen Jincheng and Wang Qiqi woke up in the hotel.
"Boss, was I good last night?" Wang Qiqi asked her boss with teary eyes as soon as she woke up.
"I don't know if you were good last night, but I want to know if you're good now!" Chen Jincheng looked at her teasingly, his eyes conveying the message that she needed to be sensible.
Wang Qiqi naturally understood, and her hand began to cooperate, grasping...
"I didn't expect your hands to be so soft." Chen Jincheng enjoyed it. No wonder you studied piano. He had heard people say that playing the piano makes your hands soft, and it seemed that was indeed true.
"Qiqi, have you ever heard of a word?" Chen Jincheng asked suddenly, feeling the little hand.
Wang Qiqi was clearly taken aback: "What word?"
"Use both hands and feet!" Chen Jincheng said with a smile.
"Hmph!" Wang Qiqi couldn't help but complain, "Boss, if your Chinese teacher heard you using idioms like that, he would definitely be so angry that he would hit you with a board."
Despite her complaints, her comprehension was still good, and she immediately started using both her hands and feet.
With one thigh on the bottom and the other hand on top.
...
Soon after, Chen Jincheng also appeared at the hotel restaurant with Wang Qiqi, and sat down with the girl to order breakfast.
Linghua and Zeng Yi also came over with one person and sat down.
He also said to the other person, "Teacher Zhang Xinzhe, I'm sorry to trouble you again today."
The other party arrived last night.
As a close friend of Zeng Yi and Ling Hua, when they invited each other to be guests at their respective concerts, the other party naturally arrived immediately.
He also asked Sister Hong to help with the hospitality, since he also planned to have Ershi Xingchen organize this person's concert, after all, it was also a concert held at the Bird's Nest, and it was a veteran with more than 10 people selling out.
Also, because it's an independent studio, they do a lot of the work themselves; for example, they are the producers.
Therefore, he planned to have Wang Qiqi be the producer of "Peach Blossom Promise" and help record the song. Lu Hao from the local area helped arrange the recording studio of Jiangsu TV.
“Mr. Chen, you’re too kind.” Zhang Xinze immediately said, “I should be thanking Mr. Chen for his care. Sister Hong told me about the concert. It’s an honor to be able to collaborate with Er Shi Xing Chen.”
If someone had previously told him that an MCN company was going to help him organize a concert, he would have thought they were crazy. If they then agreed to let them organize it, he would definitely be just as crazy.
But things are different now; everyone knows about his two friends' affairs.
It's fair to say that singers in the industry now want to collaborate with Ershi Xingchen, and many even want to sign with them.
In this field, Er Shi Xing Chen also became famous overnight.
Wang Qiqi was full of excitement, after all, this was to record a song for her. Once the song "Peach Blossom Promise" was recorded, she could call herself a singer, since she would have her own original song.
After dinner, Chen Jincheng took Wang Qiqi, Hong Jie, and Zhang Xinzhe to Sujiang TV.
Lu Hao had been waiting for a long time. He personally had someone take Wang Qiqi and Zhang Xinzhe to the TV station's recording studio, while he invited Chen Jincheng and Sister Hong to his office for tea.
After brewing a pot of tea, he got straight to the point: "Mr. Chen, didn't we sign a variety show collaboration agreement before? You also said you'd talk to me about the creative ideas after Phoenix Legend's concert, and now I can't wait to hear about them."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "Director Lu, the idea I came up with before was very simple, no different from the one I valued in Phoenix Legend. There are many female stars, singers and internet celebrities in the entertainment industry who were once very popular, but due to the changing times, they seem to have been eliminated by the times, and it is difficult to see them anymore."
"Actually, it's wrong to say they were eliminated by the times. They were just too old and were eliminated by capital. Perhaps capital has some tastes they like. In the game of capital, their former glory has faded into obscurity."
"But one thing is certain: they are not outdated. They still have a huge fan base. If we can grasp this accurately, we can revive these fans and unleash their power, letting capital see what the power of the times is."
"Director Lu could find a group of these women, host a variety show, and revive their fanbase. The ratings would be guaranteed to be huge. Let's call the show 'Sisters Who Make Waves'."
Lu Hao had worked on more than one variety show before, so he immediately understood what Chen Jincheng meant.
If he had heard this idea before, he probably wouldn't have cared, since it's just rehashing old ideas.
joke!
With so many fresh vegetables, who would reheat leftover rice?
But after the Phoenix Legend incident, who dares to doubt the veteran's popularity?
Moreover, it was Chen Jincheng who came up with this idea.
Lu Hao instinctively complimented, "Mr. Chen, your idea is fantastic! It's just that we don't have a deep understanding of the market or those celebrities. I wonder if you could recommend one?"
That was also his purpose.
They themselves really can't handle this kind of thing accurately, but Chen Jincheng is different. The fact that he can accurately promote Phoenix Legend shows that he has studied this aspect.
Chen Jincheng said with a smile, "Director Lu, putting everything else aside, there's one person who, if you invite her and give her more screen time, will definitely make this show a hit. If you hype it up well, it could even boost your TV station's stock price. Her fans are incredibly powerful."
"Who is it?" Lu Hao asked instinctively.
After all, what this person said was too exaggerated. Inviting them would even increase the stock price of their TV station? Which former diva or movie queen?
But it seems that no one is that powerful.
Chen Jincheng said with a smile, "Sweetheart Queen Wang Xinling!"
"Ah!" Lu Hao was taken aback, and subconsciously said, "She's that good? I heard that some divas used to be more popular than her! Now she's really just a nobody..."
Chen Jincheng asked Lu Hao with a smile, "Do you know the power of the white moonlight?"
Lu Hao was taken aback.
He naturally knew what "white moonlight" meant. Not only is there a song about "white moonlight," but movies and TV dramas also frequently use it to depict the relationship between the male and female protagonists.
Even without describing emotions, "white moonlight" refers to something with unique charm, something that has left a deep emotional mark on certain special stages of life, because it represents something pure and beautiful.
Chen Jincheng smiled and continued, "Back then, as a naive teenager, I was deeply attracted by a girl in a high school uniform playing 'da da da' on stage. I even chased after her and, in one night, dreamed of doing something indescribable with her."
"Years have passed, and the boy has become a domineering CEO in a suit. The girl in the high school uniform has disappeared without a trace, and can no longer be seen online. Until one day, on a stage, she appeared again, dressed as a high school girl!"
"Moreover, she is still so beautiful, seemingly unchanged, and her voice is still so sweet. That familiar 'da da da' sound evoked indescribable emotions in him, like a ray of white moonlight entering his eyes."
"The domineering CEO suddenly realizes that his youth has passed, but the girls are still young at heart, and that inexplicable protective instinct will arise. If there are more than one domineering CEO like this, then even a TV station could be brought down and beg for mercy." "Now, among all those older women, only this Sweetheart Queen can still be as youthful as ever."
Seriously, how would you describe this domineering CEO's fans in a past life?
They were so excited, tapping away in the VIP fan area, that they seemed even happier than when they got married.
At first, when Lu Hao listened to this story, he thought it was just a tired trope of a domineering CEO falling in love with his white moonlight. But the more he listened, the more he realized that the other person was talking about that former sweetheart idol.
But how old is she now? Can she still be the same as before?
Age and appearance alone shouldn't give you that feeling, right?
But that's what Chen Jincheng said.
So, after parting ways with Chen Jincheng, he went to the station director's office immediately and recounted his conversation with Chen Jincheng.
The station director looked utterly astonished: "Are you kidding me? Hiring a washed-up celebrity can actually increase our station's stock price?"
Lu Hao reminded him: "Phoenix Legend!"
The station director was taken aback. This duo had indeed generated tremendous buzz, and they had previously been considered washed-up internet celebrities.
Lu Hao hurriedly relayed Chen Jincheng's account of his "white moonlight" and said, "Director, Chen Jincheng really has a very unique ability in this regard. Since he said so, we should take it seriously."
"I'm in contact with people in Taiwan. Have them check on Wang Xinling's situation," the station director said, then made a phone call.
Not long after, he received a video on his phone: "They knew we wanted Wang Xinling to do a show, so they had Wang Xinling film a video. Let's take a look!"
When the video was played, the two were completely dumbfounded.
Because this person takes such good care of themselves, right?
Her voice was sweet, and she seemed to be in better shape than many girls in their twenties.
The two exchanged a glance, seemingly understanding the meaning behind Chen Jincheng's words about his "white moonlight."
"Director, this program..."
"Submit an application, and I'll approve the funds!"
...
Time passed, and amidst much anticipation, Phoenix Legend's first concert finally began.
The performers, including Phoenix Legend, Xue Qian, Zhou Shen, Zhang Xinze, and Wang Qiqi, had already arrived backstage to prepare.
Chen Jincheng and Hong Jie were in VIP seats. He originally planned to perform on stage, but ultimately canceled because Lei Xiaojun came specifically to see Phoenix Legend's concert.
Since the other party was giving him so much face, he naturally accompanied them personally in the VIP area.
Ershixingchen Film and Television also started a live broadcast in real time, but it hadn't officially started yet. The scene was still the ticket checking outside the door, and the voice of the host could be heard: "As you can see, this is the ticket checking area for the Phoenix Legend concert. It's very crowded and lively."
The Second Star Network naturally already had millions of viewers watching the live stream, most of whom were fans of Phoenix Legend, and some were just there to join in the fun.
Now, as the concert audience gradually enters, the atmosphere is starting to liven up.
After finding their seats, the audience members also discovered a highlighter, which was mentioned as a complimentary gift in the ticket purchase notes.
This was naturally at Chen Jincheng's request.
In their previous life, Phoenix Legend's military-style concert was a unique event, where everyone sang along in unison, waving their glow sticks in perfect unison.
This is due to the characteristics inherent in Phoenix Legend's songs.
The song has a rhythm that makes it easy for the audience to sing along. Moreover, the rhythm makes the audience want to do something along with the music. Having a glow stick in hand is just enough to satisfy the requirement, and then they will start swaying to the rhythm.
This requirement isn't high, but it's not low either. First, the song needs to be catchy, so that everyone can remember the melody and unconsciously sing along.
It's fair to say that only Phoenix Legend's down-to-earth songs have this effect.
In a past life, there was a singer who considered himself elegant and didn't get along with the two. He tried to imitate them at his own concert, but his fans stopped him. In the end, it was a mess and he made a big joke of himself.
With all the audience members present and amidst everyone's anticipation, Phoenix Legend's concert officially began.
On the stage, all the spotlights shone on it.
Zengyi and Linghua walked onto the stage under the spotlight, and at that moment, the audience erupted in screams.
After more than ten years of waiting, the first concert was a huge success, and all the fans were thrilled and gave it their all.
Linghua then took the microphone and addressed everyone: "Hello everyone, I am Linghua, a has-been singer."
“I’m Zeng Yi, a has-been singer.” Zeng Yi also chimed in with a smile.
This elicited a loud chorus of boos.
It was one thing for you to say you were washed up before, but now that everyone's coming back to fight for your tickets, it's a bit much for you to still say you're washed up. Do you even know that you can't get your tickets anymore?
Despite the boos, Linghua spoke with genuine emotion: "First of all, thank you all for coming to our concert. As you all know, we haven't dared to hold a concert for over ten years. Seeing so many people today, we truly feel an indescribable sense of happiness."
"In addition, we would like to sincerely thank someone here. Really, who would have thought that before we flew to Suzhou, we thought we had no fans, and we were even envious when we saw a young man being surrounded by fans at the airport."
"We just didn't expect to run into this young man on the plane. He immediately said he wanted to sign us and that we were top stars."
"At the time, I thought this guy was a little out of his mind. We didn't even know if we were top celebrities. But as you all know, we were actually convinced by this young man."
"Because he immediately said he would help us prepare 10 concerts. Actually, we just wanted to do a tour so that we wouldn't have any regrets in our careers. We could also move behind the scenes in a couple of years."
"He has always encouraged us, always saying that we are top stars and that we should believe in ourselves. He also brought everyone back and let us know that so many people still like us."
"It is because of him that this concert was held, and that we were able to meet everyone. He is our current boss, Chan Kam-Ching."
"Here, in front of everyone, I want to sincerely say to him: Boss, thank you!"
As she spoke, she took Zeng Yi's hand and they both bowed in the direction of Chen Jincheng.
The cameras immediately switched their footage, along with Chen Jincheng's, onto the large public screen.
The image froze, yet it moved everyone present.
Perhaps this is a real-life version of a talent scout and a promising horse?
