Money Can't Buy It, I'm Willing [Entertainment Circle]

After filming all the mvs, I was busy with a month of post-production and CD recording. The company's publicity uploaded a few new posters of Qin Ji from time to time, but the response was still not great. The previous turmoil did not subside over time. It intensified, and a group of followers also joined in. Now Qin Ji's Weibo has 600 million fans, all of whom come here to spray him. They come here on time to refresh the screen like three meals a day. Qin Ji is so annoyed that he can't stand it. I handed over the number to my publicity team to take care of it.

The production of the entire album was finally completed, and the company was very optimistic about finding a manufacturer to engrave [-] copies. Now it's a mule or a horse, and it's time to pull it out.

At the album press conference at [-] p.m., Qin Ji was dragged up at [-] a.m. and sat in the back seat in a daze, eating the breakfast Chen Hui handed over. , Qin Ji did not listen.

First, he was dragged to the beauty parlor and had a series of maintenance treatments. Qin Ji lay on the beauty bed to catch up on sleep, and let them toss his face.

It was almost eight o'clock, the maintenance was over, Qin Ji was reluctantly woken up by Shi Cheng, and started to rush to the next location. Although he didn't know what they did while they were asleep, they found that his complexion had improved. It's brightened a lot, and it's also delicate and rosy and shiny, which feels quite magical.

After leaving the beauty salon, Shi Chengcheng drove straight to the 'Lao Huan's'. Although the name is uncouth, it is actually a well-known private custom-made company in the circle. Many actresses choose to make red carpet dresses in the 'Lao Huan'. The design is novel and eye-catching, but male stars may like the high definition of international first-line brands. After all, no matter what male stars wear, they are all suits. The competition is not who has a strong sense of design, but who is calmer and more temperamental.

Qin Ji has visited the "Old Huan's House" seven or eight times one after another during this period of time. At the beginning, he had to talk about the design direction and measurement, and after the garments were finished, he had to run over to try them on and constantly adjust them. Yesterday, Qin Ji just went to However, in fact, the degree of completion is already very high, but the designer changed the cuffs and tightened the waistline. I went to pick up the clothes today, and I can wear them directly on stage in the afternoon.

To be honest, Qin Ji always thought that celebrities only need to be handsome on stage, but only after entering the industry did he realize that there is so much preparatory work before being handsome!

I went to 'Lao Huan's' to try on clothes, and they fit well in all aspects. The design is still a three-piece suit that male stars would choose, but it doesn't look like a calm male image, more like a young aristocrat. The shirt is an ordinary style, but instead of a tie, it is tied with a white silky brocade. The outside is a dark blue double-breasted vest. The curve further highlights Qin Ji's charm. The outermost is a long cardigan tuxedo of the same color as the vest, with a long and pointed back hem, which complements Qin Ji's slender figure.

In fact, such a dress is more suitable for going to the red carpet to attract attention than attending the press conference.

After everything was ready, it was still past nine o'clock when we arrived at the press conference, and the staff were nervously adjusting the equipment. Qin Ji had a short rest and was about to rehearse for the last time, singing two songs from his new album.

10:30 After the rehearsal ended, Shi Cheng called Qin Ji to the backstage to change into the dress, then went to make up and style, and waited for the official opening of the album conference.

A total of more than 300 media were invited to this press conference, all of which were paid in advance. At the same time, more than [-] music critics were invited. They were fully prepared for the campaign and publicity of Qin Ji's first album "The First Day of the Lantern". .

But even though the media took money, it doesn't mean they won't embarrass you. Taking advantage of Qin Ji's makeup, Shi Cheng began to tell Qin Ji the skills and methods of dealing with the media for an unknown number of days.

Before going on stage, Qin Ji took a sneak peek outside. There were many people sitting densely under the stage, all of them were holding cameras and microphones.

"Don't be nervous, just pretend that all you cook under the stage is Chinese cabbage." Seeing that Qin Ji was nervous, Shi Cheng comforted him.

Qin Ji rubbed his hands, took a few deep breaths, and then smiled at Shi Cheng, "That's even scarier! I've never seen a cabbage that can talk after the founding of the country."

After finishing speaking, Qin Ji closed his eyes and clapped his hands three times, then folded them in front of his abdomen and began to draw circles. This is a metaphysics that he can use before a speech that he asked online. It is said that it can eliminate tension and improve reaction Power, he didn't find something for the development conference, so he had to use this to survive.Shi Cheng also knew that Qin Ji was obsessed with metaphysics, so he didn't bother him anymore when he saw that he was starting to 'strength' again.

Alas, games are harmful. A good young man who believed in materialistic science was forcibly abducted onto such a road of nagging.

After doing one set, Qin Ji really found that he was not so nervous. He felt that the press conference would go smoothly. Qin Ji waited for the press conference to start with peace of mind.

"Then I would like to invite the protagonist of this press conference, the creative newcomer singer Qin Ji, to bring us the song "The Other Side of Northern Xinjiang" from "The First Blossom of Lights"!"

The female hostess on the stage was eloquently mobilizing the atmosphere, and when it was time for him to go on stage, Qin Ji tightly shook the microphone in his hand, took a deep breath, and walked onto the stage steadily.

"Lonely like water freezes / drifts into snow / howling of your north wind / whistling by horses..."

The two most outstanding songs in the album have both signed an agreement with the crew of "Whirling", before the broadcast of "Whirling", these two songs are not allowed to be widely promoted, and try to ensure that the audience can hear the freshness of the episode when watching "Whirling", although I can’t use the best songs for the development conference, but the quality of other songs is not bad. "The Other Side of Northern Xinjiang" is a song from the perspective of an ancient woman, describing the longing for her husband who fought far away. The whole song not only The sadness of a girl with free time also has a sense of fierceness of gold and iron horses. Sadness and sadness complement each other with passion and pride. There is no reasonable conflict, but a contradictory and unified aesthetic feeling.

After singing a song, the hostess who had retreated to the backstage came on stage again and presided over the next questioning session. The reporters in the audience raised their hands enthusiastically. Qin Ji looked at it, feeling like a primary school student waiting for the teacher to call out. sense of sight.

The hostess pretended to choose, and selected a few media that had a good relationship with the Chinese media to ask questions.

"Hello, Qin Ji. I'm a reporter from "Entertainment Daily". I want to ask you, how do you feel about the quality of the album "Lighting in the Night"?"

"As far as I am concerned, of course I think it is perfect. After all, I created it and I am not willing to say bad things about it, but how about the quality, we have to wait and see what the audience thinks after it is released!" Qin Ji remained decent. With a smile, he answered the cliché that Shi Cheng had told him countless times before, even though he really wanted to say that the quality of the album was very good, but it is not impossible to be self-effacing, and it is better to leave it to others to comment.

"Hello, Qin Ji, I'm You Ran, a reporter from "Music Express", please predict how much the sales volume of "Light of Lights" will be?"

"Then how can you just say it casually? Once I plant the flag, the sales will not collapse!"

When the words came out, the reporters were a little speechless. I have never seen such a casual and down-to-earth answer. Can't they be more serious in such a formal occasion?

Shi Cheng hated his teeth in the background, what is this and what is it, after so many days of teaching, something can go wrong, can it save people some time, what will the reporters write tomorrow!

In fact, the reporters present don't know how to write it anymore, you don't play your cards according to the routine.

Just when the atmosphere was cold, a middle-aged reporter with a black, fat and wretched face stood up with a big belly and asked loudly: "Qin Ji, about the recently rumored 'Young Singer Who Knows Music Best', may I ask?" Do you look down on other singers?"

"How come? There are many singers who are very good. My singing skills are thanks to Ling Jie's guidance. As for Mr. Xiong's compliment, it may be more of a recognition of my composition ability and encouragement to a newcomer. ", Qin Ji took a closer look, and by the logo on the microphone, he knew that he was a reporter from "United Gossip". Yes, but Qin Ji also wanted to take this opportunity to explain, so he answered seriously.

The reporter of "United Eight Diagrams" seemed unhappy that he failed to catch Qin Ji's words, and quickly asked: "Then do you think that all the composers nowadays are inferior to you?"

"Hehe... Although I don't know how you came to this conclusion, I still advise you to go back and take your medicine!"

Qin Ji blinked his eyes, then ignored him, waiting for the next question from the media, everyone in the audience suppressed their laughter, and the reporter of "United Gossip" blushed with anger, shouting: "You This is a personal attack, I want to sue you! I want to sue you!", and then was cleared out by the bodyguards on the side.

The subsequent interviews went on harmoniously, and Qin Ji sang the second prepared song "Liu Blank", and the entire album conference was completed perfectly.

Before the album went on sale, the company sent Qin Ji's new album to all the radio DJs, music column hosts, and well-known music critics. However, Qin Ji's recent negative news is too much, and the impression is not particularly good. There are two songs in the album that are not allowed to be promoted. I need to tell you this in advance, but this cusp gives people the illusion of putting on airs, which makes both the DJ and the host very dissatisfied. publicity.

The music critics all gave very high evaluations, thinking that "On the Beginning of the Chinese Lantern" can be regarded as the best quality album this year, but the high scores on the music reviews did not restore Qin Ji's decline in public opinion. The weekly sales volume is less than [-] copies, which is much less than the [-] copies that the company expected at the beginning.

The sales are dismal, it can only be said that the sales are dismal, Qin Ji's first album did not lose in quality, but actually lost in the direction of public opinion.

The company arranged for Qin Ji to run a publicity campaign. After Qin Ji went there once, he didn't want to go again. The column team that invited him all positioned him as a buffoon, making all kinds of ridicule. Where did Qin Ji feel this kind of anger?

Without publicity, there would be no exposure, and this slump in sales continued until the broadcast of "Whirling".
