The straight man of steel in the entertainment industry

At this moment, Lao Wai is extremely depressed, smoking a stuffy cigarette at home.

the phone is ringing.

In the past two days, many media wanted to interview Lao Wai, but he refused.

Looking at the number, it is an old friend, also a poet, named Lingqing.

Lingqing is not his real name, just like Lao Wai is not his real name. As a poet, he naturally wants to use a unique pen name.

Because his real name Li Guoqiang is too ugly, he doesn't look like a poet.

"Old Wai, where are you at home?" Ling Qing asked.

"Ah, yes, otherwise where else would I be here." Lao Wai said in a dejected tone.

"Haha, my brother is popular on the Internet now." Ling Qing laughed.

"Don't make fun of me, damn it, labor and capital are in bad luck. I've decided to change my pseudonym later."

Ling Qing smiled and said, "Don't, you can't get your shoes wet when you often stand by the river. This Lin Li is not a man to mess with. Why are you messing with him?"

"I don't know who he is!" Lao Wai said with a sad face and puffed out his cigarette, "In the past, the poems of people like celebrities on Weibo were the most topical, but now I see everyone saying what is this guy who sings the best poems Of course, I couldn't help but comment a few sentences, who knew that this person is really cruel."

"Don't be disheartened either, let me tell you, you are now a blessing in disguise." Ling Qing comforted.

Lao Wai said with a wry smile: "The street smells bad, but it's a blessing!"

"Hey, listen to me, didn't you ask me to help you find a publishing house to publish a collection of poems at your own expense last time? Now they have news, and they can publish it for you!"

Lao Wai was startled and said, "What, are they willing to publish a collection of poems for me?"

"Yes, not only do you not need to pay yourself, but you can also share 3 points of the manuscript fee."

Lao Wai jumped up excitedly. These days, he felt that he had fallen to the bottom. He didn't expect that the poetry collection he had been thinking about could be published at this time, and he didn't need to pay for it himself, and he could get some manuscript fees. Such a good thing , almost made him cry.

"How, how could such a good thing happen?"

Lao Wai couldn't believe it, because he didn't make any money, and now there are not many poets who are willing to publish poetry collections. Only those famous poets are eligible, and everyone else can only pay at their own expense.

"You are so famous now, I will publish it for you immediately, it must be a big hit, the publishing house is not stupid, it must have seen a business opportunity." Ling Qing said.

Lao Wai was also in a trance.

this is okay too? !

Chapter 156 Publishing an Album (300 Orders Plus 1)

Lin Li rested for a few days while studying at home, but rejected all the invitations, and there was no movement on the Internet.

Lin Li posted more and more messages on Weibo.

"What about my lord, why haven't there been any news these days?"

"Yeah, I haven't seen the boss hot search for a few days, I'm not used to it, haha."

"Could it be that I lost everything by holding a concert, so let's sell it."

"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter, come out soon, boss, otherwise it's really real."

"Hehe, I'm afraid Lin Li is like the champions of other talent shows. He reached his peak when he debuted, and then disappeared."

"Now people still say that Lin Li will be short-lived? You are not stupid, you are really bad!"

"There's a new song coming out, boss, I'm waiting to buy it."

"Yeah, I haven't released a song for two weeks."

"Whatever song comes out, just release an album."

"Now that we have enough songs, we can release an album."

Wang Tuo called and invited Lin Li to record songs, so Lin Li went to Wang Tuo's house to record songs for a few days, recorded all the songs he sang, and posted them on the Internet.

This time, Lin Li's songs were released by the three major music platforms at the same time, and more than one song, but even if the streams were split, the sales of Lin Li's songs were not at all worse than before, and the momentum was very strong.

Especially the song "I Don't Turn a Corner", it reached the top ten on the three major music websites.

Lin Li was secretly happy, thinking that in this case, the side mission should be completed this week.

Next, Jiang Da and the others will start thinking about releasing an album for Lin Li.

"Lin Li, these days I have applied for the release number of the album, and you have enough songs, let's release the album."

After Wang Tuo's home recorded the last song, Jiang Da said to Lin Li.

Their songs are all on the Internet one by one, and they haven't really released a physical album yet.

Nowadays, the physical album market is not as good as before, and the profit is very low, but most singers are still willing to release physical albums. First, this thing can be seen and touched, which is the first goal of many people after becoming a singer. I have never released an album before, so I am ashamed to tell others that I am a singer. Secondly, because there is no profit, most singers really don’t have a company willing to release a physical album for them. This makes it a proud thing to release a physical album , Whether a singer is successful depends on whether he can release a physical album.

After listening to Jiang Da's words, Lin Li knew that it was imperative to release an album, so he nodded and said, "Yes, you can arrange it."

"You have a total of 20 songs now. Uncle Wang and I checked it out. An album can only select 12 to 13 songs. The rest will be put into the next album. How do you choose?"

Lin Li didn't even think about it, and said, "Just follow the order in which I sing."

"Well, I think so too, now it's the album name, you have to think about it."

Generally, the title of the album will be named after the title song in the album, but Lin Li feels that each of his songs can be used as the title song, so he is a little uncertain.

"What do you think?" Lin Li asked.

"Uncle Wang and I discussed it in private, and we think that the name of the album should call me a superstar?"

There is a song in this album that feels like a superstar, and the name of the album just echoes it.

Lin Li smiled and said, "The name of such a shameless album seems to be good."

Jiang Da grinned and said, "Then it's settled?"

"I think it's okay," Lin Li said.

Jiang Da acted as if he had already seen through that he would agree, and said, "The name has been decided, and the song is also available. Let's shoot the MV as soon as possible."

Only then did Lin Li realize that releasing an album is no better than releasing a single online, and releasing an album requires a MV.

"I still have to shoot the MV," Lin Li murmured.

"You don't have to shoot all of them by yourself. You can choose a few songs and shoot them on camera. We can find actors to shoot the rest." Jiang Da said.
