Chapter 147 One live broadcast and one book The place for the dinner was just decided.
Linyu is the class monitor, and her appeal in the class has always been very high.
In the end, there were more than 40 students who were determined to come for dinner. There was no room for the three tables, so we had no choice but to squeeze in a little bit.
Fortunately, they are all young boys and girls, so it doesn't matter if they are squeezed in, it is more lively.
After everyone finished the exam, they were all in a state of freedom where the wild horse finally broke free from the reins, and they looked much more excited than usual.
This time, neither Chu Saiying nor Luo Zicheng came to the dinner, so the atmosphere was particularly good.
We have been together in the same classroom for two years, and it is impossible to say that we have no feelings.
Instead of drinking alcohol, everyone drank juice and talked about past embarrassments, memories and jokes. They were all trivial matters, but because of the emphasis on graduation, everything became as precious as the past.
After dinner, many people are going home.
Although he has passed the college entrance examination, he is still a child in the eyes of his parents and cannot stay out too late.
Linyu asked the remaining people if they wanted to go to the KTV to sing, and received support from many people. Those who didn't want to go naturally used the excuse of going home and went back.
In the end, only a dozen people went to the KTV.
Lu Yanhe was all right, especially when Li Pengfei asked him to go with him. Of course he didn't refuse.
Even at this time, Li Pengfei still did not disclose it to Xu Zijun.
Xu Zijun and Li Xiang walked together.
When they arrived at the KTV, no one was too embarrassed to sing the first song, so they looked at Lu Yanhe.
Lu Yanhe: "???"
To be honest, he doesn't like singing that much.
However, everyone asked him to sing a song first, and he was asked to sing a song, so he asked everyone what they wanted to hear.
Linyu said: "I don't know if there is "Memory". How about singing "Memorial"? Everyone likes to listen to this song."
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Okay."
Linyu went to request some songs, and sure enough, there were still some, but Song Linxin made them popular.
Of course she ordered the version of "Little Songs Gathering Crowds".
Lu Yanhe picked up the phone.
In the eyes of Class [-] students, this song was written by Lu Yanhe for their class.
After the song was finished, everyone applauded.
"Listen well!" Mei Ping raised her hands and swayed, "God of music, you must become a superstar and hold a concert. Please invite us to the concert!"
Others also shouted.
"You want to invite us to your concert!"
"We bought our own tickets!" someone said immediately.
Lu Yanhe laughed.
He said: "If there is a concert in the future, I will invite everyone to go."
Mei Ping took the lead in cheering.
Lu Yanhe started a performance, and everyone became less reserved and began to request songs.
Lu Yanhe sang a lot of songs with everyone, but by the end he was a little tired and went to the bathroom.
Li Pengfei came out with him.
"Li Cui's singing is so magical that it's hard to hear." Li Pengfei complained.
Lu Yanhe smiled.
"Lao Lu, when are you going to film?" he asked.
Lu Yanhe said: "Next month."
"Shooting in Yuming?"
"I don't know yet. It probably won't be filmed in Yuming." Lu Yanhe said, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I'm just curious." Li Pengfei said, "My dad asked me to ask you when you are free, and I would like to ask you to have dinner together."
"I, I'm free these two days."
Previously, Li Pengfei’s father said that there was a product that he wanted to cooperate with in his live broadcast room, but there was no follow-up. I don’t know if there was a problem with the product development, or he gave up on the cooperation idea. Lu Yanhe didn’t ask, focusing on preparing for the exam. Now Li Pengfei and his Dad invited him to dinner again, and he thought about it again.
"Okay, I'll talk to him later and see when he makes an appointment with you." Li Pengfei said, "I don't know how many points I will get in the final test. Do you have an estimate?"
"No."
"Me neither." Li Pengfei said, "My dad has to ask me to estimate the score, so I don't bother to estimate it."
"Are you going to go out and play this summer vacation?"
"Of course, my dad said that when my brother goes on summer vacation, he will take me to Europe."
"A wealthy family always goes round and round when they go out to play." Lu Yanhe asked, "You won't be back in half a month, right?"
"Half a month? We have initially planned a trip of more than 20 days." Li Pengfei said proudly.
Lu Yanhe gave him a thumbs up.
"You are awesome. A wealthy family is a wealthy family."
Li Pengfei said: "Stop chirping, I will bring you a gift later."
"Okay, wait for the reward from the young master." Lu Yanhe teased.
In his senior year of high school, for Lu Yanhe, the most important person he met was Li Pengfei. They didn't know each other even if they didn't fight each other. At first, they didn't like each other, but after being attacked by Luo Zicheng, a common enemy, the two of them became more interested. became friends.
It is luck to have a friend like Li Pengfei.
Of course a person can have no friends, but if a person really has no friends, he will always feel a little lonely. - By the time we finished singing, it was already 11:30 pm.
Everyone dispersed at the door of the KTV.
Xu Zijun and Li Xiang both went to Lin Yu's house to sleep. Their homes were too far away and it would take more than two hours to go back. It was so late and Lin Yu had invited them both.
Chen Qin sent the three girls back.
Li Pengfei had a car at home to pick him up, so he asked Lu Yanhe to get in his car and said he would take him back.
Lu Yanhe didn't show any politeness to Li Pengfei and got in the car directly.
Seeing that Li Pengfei and Xu Zijun were still distant in front of others, Lu Yanhe actually wanted to ask Li Pengfei, but he was too embarrassed to ask because his driver was there.
Or Li Pengfei said: "If you have nothing to do tomorrow, will you go shopping with me? I want to buy two laptops, will you accompany me to pick them out?"
"Okay." Lu Yanhe nodded, "If I had known, I would have gone with you. I just bought a laptop this morning."
"You didn't tell me earlier." After Li Pengfei finished speaking, he reacted again and asked, "Did you get up this morning? I'll go, beast, I slept until eleven o'clock."
"Why are you up so late?"
"Of course it's because I stayed up all night last night!" Li Pengfei said immediately, "I finally finished the exam!"
"There's no need to stay up all night, what are you doing?"
"Playing games." Li Pengfei smiled, "I haven't played games for more than half a year. I played a lot of games and even my dad didn't say anything."
"After all, I just finished the exam." Lu Yanhe smiled.
After arriving at the gate of the community, Lu Yanhe got out of the car.
"See you tomorrow."
"Okay." Li Pengfei said, "I'll contact you when I wake up tomorrow."
"Ah."
Lu Yanhe walked into the community facing the warm evening breeze. - It was already early in the morning when he got home, but probably because he had just finished singing with everyone, Lu Yanhe didn't feel sleepy. After thinking about it, he decided to start a live broadcast.
He stopped chatting with everyone. He couldn't digest those negative words now, so he just read a book silently.
So, when the live broadcast started, Lu Yanhe didn't have any opening remarks, so he just muted the audio and started reading the novel he bought today.
Lu Yanhe usually loved reading novels, but this hobby was discontinued because he was preparing for the exam in his senior year of high school.
The first novel he bought was a mystery novel.
"Crime Records of 19 Years" written by an author named Liu Jiazhen.
Lu Yanhe was quite shocked when he saw this title. He felt that the content of this book should be quite large-scale. The key is, this title can actually pass the review? ! - It was late at night, and Helan was ready to go to bed.
She was listening to an English radio drama with headphones on, yawned, and was about to go to sleep after listening to this episode. Suddenly, her phone vibrated with a background prompt.
He Lan took a look and saw that it was Lu Yanhe who started broadcasting.
This broadcast time... is too hellish!
Helan went in doubtfully and saw Lu Yanhe adjusting the camera as usual, and then lowered his head to read.
He had no intention of communicating with them.
Return to the previous live broadcast room.
He Lan took a curious look and showed a surprised expression when he saw the title of the book read "Crime Records of 19 Years".
Can Lu Yanhe actually read this kind of book? Is it documentary literature or fiction?
Helan immediately searched the book out of curiosity and found that it was a crime-themed novel.
Helan couldn't help but speak in the barrage and asked: Does Xiao Lu actually like to read crime-themed novels?
It's probably because it's Taiyinjing time when the show starts, so many people have already gone to bed, so the barrage room today is not as lively as usual.
Someone said: This novel is quite good.
Someone immediately followed and said: What a coincidence, I am also reading this novel. It is so scary that I hid under the quilt to read it.
……
Helan saw the discussion about this book in the bulletin room, hesitated for a moment, and decided to buy a copy to see what it was like.
She logged into the shopping APP, searched for the name of the book, and quickly placed an order. - Li Chang is very young and works as a stocking clerk in a warehouse.
To put it simply, his job is to distribute goods according to orders in the warehouse.
Tonight, he works the night shift.
The order volume at night is generally smaller, so you don’t have to be very busy.
Moreover, the warehouse he was in was full of books, so there were even fewer people ordering at night.
He originally thought he could squint for a while, but just as he sat down, the order form was sent to him immediately.
A book, "Crime Records of 19 Years".
Li Chang muttered that buying this book so late at night must be a bit though he was murmuring in his heart, he was still very diligent and moved the goods quickly, then packaged them, affixed the goods list, and put them aside to prepare for shipment.
Before anyone could sit down, there were two more beeps, and a new order came over.
Li Chang was stunned for a moment, and when he looked again, he was even more stunned.
Another "Crime Record of 19 Years".
How is this going?
Did any celebrity recommend this book? Li Chang didn't expect that this was just the beginning.
In the next 10 minutes, more than a dozen people placed orders for this book one after another. The inventory in his warehouse was all gone, so he could only quickly put the "out of stock" label and apply for emergency replenishment.
Situations like this happen in book warehouses across the country.
Lu Yanhe didn't know that when he was reading this novel live, nearly a thousand people placed orders for the book because they saw his live broadcast. - At seven o'clock in the morning, Xu Mingyue heard the alarm clock on her mobile phone ringing. She immediately pressed the alarm clock and climbed out of bed.
She found an internship at a publishing house this summer.
The internship started in June. Because of her major, she was doing proofreading work.
This job does not pose too many challenges to her, and she hopes to challenge other aspects of the editor's work. However, this publishing house is not an ordinary publisher. As a large publisher that has been in business for decades, they will not focus on their core work. Let the interns do it.
Xu Mingyue could only do the assigned work first.
"Well, you got up so early?" Helan opened the bed curtain and was a little surprised to see Xu Mingyue fully dressed, and asked in a low voice, "Are there any classes today?"
Xu Mingyue shook her head and said, "I'm going to do an internship today."
Helan suddenly understood and nodded.
Xu Mingyue found an internship for herself, and everyone in the dormitory knew about it.
Not many students start internships after their sophomore year, and most students still want to go to graduate school.
Helan quite admired Xu Mingyue. For the sake of internship, she was willing not to go home or go out for fun throughout the summer vacation, but to devote the entire summer vacation to internship.
Xu Mingyue went out and took the subway. It took about five and ten minutes to arrive at the place of her internship, Jiangyin Publishing House.
Xu Mingyue's internship department is in the novel editing department.
After she entered, she greeted everyone with a smile as she had done in the past few days.
"The bright moon is here."
"Oh, your school is far away from our place. It doesn't matter if you arrive a little later. You don't have to always arrive before work hours."
Xu Mingyue said with a smile: "It's okay, I get up early every day, so it won't be in the way."
"Wow, have you heard? Last night, "Crime Chronicles of 19" sold a thousand copies!" Suddenly, a female editor ran in and said in an exaggerated tone.
"what?"
"what's the situation?"
This news made the editors in the editorial department look surprised.
Xu Mingyue didn't understand why this news surprised everyone so much.
Although physical publishing is not as prosperous as it was 20 years ago, with sales of hundreds of thousands or millions of copies, you are not so shocked by a thousand copies, right? "Xiao Yin, are you looking for any celebrity to do promotion?" A senior asked.
Xu Xiaoyin is the editor-in-chief of "Crime Records of 19 Years". The author of this book, Liu Jiazhen, was discovered by her. He is a newcomer. If Xu Xiaoyin had not fought hard for it, it would be difficult for a newcomer's work to get a chance to be published.
Xu Xiaoyin also looked confused and had no idea why this happened.
"No, although "19 Years" has sold well and has been reprinted once since its release, it has only printed a total of [-] copies. How can you have the budget to find celebrities to promote it?" Xu Xiaoyin said.
Seeing that everyone was suspicious, Xu Mingyue took out her mobile phone and searched for the book "Crime Records of 19 Years" on the Internet.
Sure enough, now you can find clues about everything on the Internet.
If you sell a thousand copies of a book in one night, someone will always share it on their social media.
Xu Mingyue saw a familiar name.
"Is it actually him?" Xu Mingyue was very surprised.
"What is him?" Xu Xiaoyin asked.
Xu Mingyue said: "Last night, an artist read this book during his live broadcast. Many fans in his live broadcast mentioned it on social media and said that they also ordered a copy."
"Who is it?" When other editors heard that an artist was involved in this matter, they were suddenly surprised. Now if an artist can recommend a book, then the book can sell thousands more copies. This is a very common phenomenon. .
"Lu Yanhe." Xu Mingyue said.
As soon as this name was mentioned, many people showed doubts.
"Lu Yanhe?"
"Who is he?"
"It sounds familiar, but I don't know who it is."
"A new star?"
Xu Mingyue had no choice but to explain his background to everyone.
"It turns out it's him." Someone immediately reacted, "He's the senior high school student who acted bravely."
After mentioning it like this, everyone else also started thinking about it.
This incident happened in Yuming. Even if the locals in Yuming have not seen the news, they must have heard it mentioned by people around them.
"Did he just start a live broadcast to read this novel?" Xu Xiaoyin suddenly turned her head and asked Xu Mingyue.
Xu Mingyue also saw it online and did not confirm it. She did not watch Lu Yanhe's live broadcast.
But someone must have seen it! Xu Mingyue thought of her roommate Helan.
"Sister Xiaoyin, wait a moment. I'll call my roommate. She watched Lu Yanhe's live broadcast yesterday. I'll ask her what's going on."
Xu Xiaoyin nodded.
Xu Mingyue called Helan.
"Lan Lan, I'm sorry for disturbing your sleep."
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm already awake." Helan yawned, "What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
"I want to ask you, did you watch Lu Yanhe's live broadcast yesterday?"
"Look, I...did I affect your sleep?" Helan's voice suddenly sounded a little apologetic.
"No, it doesn't matter. I have something to ask you. Did Lu Yanhe read the book "Crime Records of 19 Years" during the live broadcast last night?" Xu Mingyue asked, "Did he make relevant recommendations?"
"No, he read for about half an hour and stopped broadcasting without saying anything." Helan was a little confused, "What's wrong? Mingyue?"
Xu Mingyue said: "Because of his live broadcast yesterday, "Crime Record of 19 Years" sold very well. We want to know why."
"Oh, that's right, because he was reading this book, and we were discussing it during the barrage. He was a little curious about this book, so many people bought it, including me." Helan said.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Mingyue went to talk to Xu Xiaoyin.
Others also listened and sighed, "Liu Jiazhen is really lucky. Just because a star like Lu Yanhe read his book, a bunch of fans immediately followed and bought it."
Xu Xiaoyin fell into deep thought.
"Xiao Yin, what's wrong? Your brows are furrowed, you are thinking so seriously."
Xu Xiaoyin said to the editor-in-chief Liu Cheng: "Editor-in-chief, I want to meet Lu Yanhe. There have been many cases where celebrities and artists read a certain book and were posted on social platforms, or they simply recommended a certain book directly, but it was very difficult for them to do so. It rarely happens that he sells more than 1000 copies in one night. As far as I know, Lu Yanhe is not a very popular star yet, and his appeal is rare."
Hearing this, Liu Cheng frowned slightly.
"What do you want to talk about when you go to meet him?" Liu Cheng said.
If you want to establish a long-term cooperative promotion relationship with Lu Yanhe, you must first obtain the consent of the agency.
Xu Xiaoyin: "I would like to express my gratitude. As the editor-in-chief of "Crime Records of 19", I would like to thank him for reading this book during the live broadcast, which enabled our book to sell more than 1000 copies in one night."
Hearing this, Liu Cheng thought for a moment and asked, "Can't we find a way to contact him, add him as a friend or call him to express our gratitude?"
Xu Xiaoyin hesitated for a moment, then confessed, saying: "The main thing is that "Star Orbit", which I am responsible for, will be released this Thursday. I want to ask him to help promote it. It is better to tell him in person about this. I I also need to deliver the book to him in person.”
"Star Orbit" is another book that Xu Xiaoyin is responsible for. It is a youth literature.
Similarly, it was written by a less famous author, but Xu Xiaoyin did various data surveys and statistics to persuade the publisher to publish this book.
Because physical books cannot be sold now, publishing books is much more difficult than before.
When the company decides to publish a book, it also goes through a lot of processes.
A "Crime Record of 19 Years" and a "Star Orbit" were both launched by Xu Xiaoyin two years ago and were not launched on the market until this year.
Liu Cheng thought that if "Star Orbit" could sell thousands more copies, the sales volume in the first month would be much better.
After all, for such a new book, the first print run of the book is only set at [-] copies.
"Okay, let's go." Liu Cheng glanced at Xu Mingyue, suddenly thought of something, and said: "You take Xu Mingyue with you. She has been an intern for some time. The marketing of the book "Star Orbit" , you take her to do it together."
Xu Xiaoyin glanced at Xu Mingyue and nodded.
Xu Mingyue's face showed surprise.
Two people have a small meeting.
"Do you have a way to contact Lu Yanhe?" Xu Xiaoyin asked Xu Mingyue.
Xu Mingyue shook her head and said, "You can try sending him a private message through his live broadcast account and social account."
Xu Xiaoyin pondered for a moment and said, "He is an artist, so he should have an agency. Can you try to contact his agency?"
Xu Mingyue nodded, searched the Internet for the contact information of Xingyu Brokerage Company, called it, and made several more calls.
"Ah?" Xu Mingyue was stunned.
Xu Xiaoyin heard Xu Mingyue's surprised "Huh?" and looked at her in confusion.
When Xu Mingyue hung up the phone, Xu Xiaoyin immediately asked: "What's wrong?"
Xu Mingyue looked shocked and said, "Xingyu said that he has terminated his contract with them."
Xu Xiaoyin also showed surprise. - The weather in June is mostly sunny.
Lu Yanhe and Li Pengfei were shopping in the mall. They originally planned to buy a laptop first, but Li Pengfei said it had to be held in hand before buying it. It was a bit heavy, so they had to buy other things first and then buy the laptop last.
"What else do you want to buy?" Lu Yanhe asked.
Li Pengfei said: "Buy a suitcase for Xu Zijun. After the last college entrance examination, she took her things back in a bag and it was difficult to carry it."
"Then you bought it and sent it to her?" Lu Yanhe asked curiously.
"Well, I'm going to learn how to drive. My dad said he would give me a car. I'll drive her there then." Li Pengfei said, "If she goes to college in Yuming, I can also take her to school. .”
Seeing Li Pengfei's words beaming with joy, Lu Yanhe couldn't help but be stunned and a little surprised.
Judging from your thick eyebrows and big eyes, I didn’t expect you to be a filial boyfriend!
