There is a saying that goes, you can’t hide your love for someone in your eyes.
Lu Yanhe coughed twice and turned his gaze away from Chen Siqi's face.
Li Pengfei snorted, crossed his arms, and said, "Are you two really going to make a magazine?"
"Yeah." Chen Siqi nodded while eating the cake.
Li Pengfei looked at Chen Siqi in disbelief and said, "It's okay if he goes crazy, but why are you going crazy with him?"
Lu Yanhe said speechlessly: "You are crazy."
"Going crazy is good, it's better than being bored." Chen Siqi said seriously, "There's nothing else to do anyway."
Li Pengfei took a deep breath and said, "I'm really impressed by you two. Damn, during this wonderful holiday, you two are the only perverts who think you have nothing to do. If you have nothing to do, why don't you go out and play games?"
Chen Siqi gave him a pitiful look and said, "Not everyone gets happiness from going out and playing games."
Li Pengfei was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.
Chen Siqi's words seemed philosophical.
He couldn't find any words to refute.
After Chen Siqi finished eating the cake, Lu Yanhe took out his laptop and said, "I have some ideas about this today."
Chen Siqi nodded, took out a laptop from her bag, opened it, and created a new document. "You say."
Li Pengfei looked at the two men in shock.
Wait, it just started suddenly?
There was no warning at all, it just started.
Li Pengfei couldn't help but sigh in his heart again, these two people are really a perfect match.
-
"Magazines all have their own style and positioning. What kind do you want to create?" Chen Siqi asked.
Lu Yanhe said, "I don't really have any particular thoughts on this. I just remember that the magazines I read were all quite interesting, with lots of interesting articles on all sorts of topics. Some magazines even specialized in publishing novels."
Chen Siqi nodded and said, "Yes, there are many types of magazines, such as general magazines, news and commentary magazines, fashion magazines, and literature magazines. However, I personally feel that these categories are no longer applicable now. After all, public accounts are now more segmented than magazines. Differentiating them by style and content means that we need to delve into the content in this area, and we don't have the resources to do that right now."
Lu Yanhe nodded. "Then how do you think we should position it?"
"We're a bunch of unprofessional people, so this magazine can't possibly be professional. Plus, we've all just finished the college entrance exams, so our social experience is incredibly naive in the eyes of adults. Pretending to be anything like that will only make us laugh," Chen Siqi said. "No concept is better than focusing on youth. That's what we're most familiar with and what's easiest for us to handle."
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Yeah."
After nodding, Lu Yanhe realized belatedly that when Chen Siqi first asked him what style of magazine she wanted, Chen Siqi actually already had an idea in mind.
After realizing this, Lu Yanhe put aside his previous thoughts and asked, "Since the theme and style are to be youthful and youthful, do you have any specific ideas?"
Chen Siqi thought for a moment and said, "I've thought of several main sections: novels, essays, miscellanies, memoirs, photos, and since this is an e-magazine, I can even include videos."
When Lu Yanhe heard Chen Siqi say this, he nodded.
"But before that, we need to make it clear: are we going to run it as a formal commercial magazine, or just treat it as a hobby like a club activity?" Chen Siqi asked.
Lu Yanhe hesitated for a moment and said, "Although I don't know how long this thing will take to be completed, if we're going to do it, we should do it well. Treat it as a hobby like a club activity, and the standards in all aspects will be lowered a lot."
"Okay, that brings us to the second question. Since we're going to run a commercial magazine, we can't just rely on our fame and get fans to subscribe to it, like famous writers, other celebrities, or even other artists. We need to find more influential creators, just like magazines in the past would commission articles from many well-known writers," Chen Siqi said. "Also, where should we sell this magazine? We have to consider costs and returns. Forget it, this is our first attempt, so we can put the returns aside for now, but we can't lose money to gain publicity. If we just spend our own money for fun, then this commercial magazine won't be commercial at all."
Lu Yanhe said, "Since it's an e-magazine, I think we can contact a few larger platforms, such as Yemai.com, or other websites, and publish it on their websites."
"Well, but how many people would believe that a magazine like ours, made by a group of recent high school graduates, can do well?" Chen Siqi said. "This brings us to the third question. Do we really have to rely entirely on your artist status to produce a magazine like this? If we use your artist status, I'm sure there will be people willing to support you. After all, the production cost is very low, and with your fans footing the bill, we won't lose money. But do you want to position this magazine as a magazine for your fans?"
Lu Yanhe was silent.
Chen Siqi's questions went straight to the heart of Lu Yanhe.
He really didn't know whether he wanted to or not. In fact, when the attitude of "I don't know" came out, the answer actually came out.
If possible, he would certainly make it a serious magazine rather than a fan work.
"But I'm very clear that without your help, this magazine absolutely can't be produced," Chen Siqi said. "So, we have to decide one thing. Will your power and resources, Lu Yanhe, remain behind the scenes, with your help only in the production process? Or will you also put your name on the magazine, and it will still be the main brand after it is released to the market?"
Lu Yanhe said frankly: "I hope it's the former. I hope this magazine is not just a fan-oriented work."
"Yes." Chen Siqi nodded. "Then we're faced with a huge problem. Without your name on the magazine, who would be interested in an obscure e-magazine? We have to solve this problem first."
-
Li Pengfei had seen his father talk about work with others.
Compared with his father, Chen Siqi is much less skilled. He looks like a student, very proper and serious. In fact, he is not a "professional" or a "businessman" at all.
If his father were here, would he care whether your product is fan-oriented or not? The most important thing for a new product is to let more people know about it and survive.
He can't even stand steadily but he's already thinking about running. He has a big appetite.
If his father were here, he would definitely say that.
For the first time, Li Pengfei felt that he could point at the two of them in a condescending manner and scold them for not using their advantages and being idealistic all the time.
But Li Pengfei thought it was good that Lu Yanhe's name did not appear in front of the camera, so that if the magazine failed, it would not affect Lu Yanhe.
So, Li Pengfei said nothing and just watched these two kids, who were not even twenty years old, chattering and planning the future of the magazine.
etc--
Li Pengfei's eyes suddenly became puzzled when he looked at Chen Siqi.
——It’s good that Lu Yanhe’s name doesn’t appear on the stage. This way, if the magazine fails, it won’t affect Lu Yanhe.
Chen Siqi wouldn't be thinking the same thing, so she went through so much trouble just to achieve this goal, right?
Could this girl, whose expression hinted at pride, be like this?
Li Pengfei thought about it seriously for a while and felt that he was overthinking it.
-
"Whether it's an e-magazine or a themed e-book, no matter what the format, we at Yemai.com need such a brand."
Xin Zixing handed the plan she had written at six o'clock in the morning to Liu Qiao.
Liu Qiao looked at the plan in his hand in amazement, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Don't you have enough things on hand now? Are you still thinking about doing something new?"
"Actually, it wasn't something I thought of. I heard some news, and I felt I had to seize the opportunity. Even if I didn't do it, I had to tell you so you could arrange for someone to take over." Xin Zixing said, "I heard Lu Yanhe had the idea of publishing an e-magazine."
The surprise on Liu Qiao's face became even more intense.
"Him? Electronic magazine?" Liu Qiao's first reaction was that it was impossible.
"Editor-in-chief, don't forget that Lu Yanhe is the artist who has the most dealings with publishing and writers. He just graduated from high school and is at his most idealistic. It's normal for him to have such thoughts. What we need to consider now is whether he can accomplish this." Xin Zixing said.
Liu Qiao fell into deep thought.
"And this is why I came up with this plan. I've suggested to you a long time ago that since Yemai.com focuses on literary concepts, we must have our own literary brand. Why was I able to attract so many brands to invest in fashion before? Because we have our own style, not the same old so-called fashion, and we have a large number of users who like this style." Xin Zixing said, "Our e-book content section has always been stuck at converting paper book copyrights, but we haven't established our own book series. Of course, I know that establishing our own book series is difficult and requires a lot of investment, but e-magazines and themed books are different. We can steadily launch one book every month or even every two months. This will help Yemai build brand influence."
Liu Qiao: "Of course I know what you said, but I just haven't had the right opportunity to do it. To make a magazine or a book like this, you need a team, and we at Yemai.com don't have a team that can do this right now."
"That's why I told you Lu Yanhe's idea right away." Xin Zixing said, "We want to win him over. This is the best opportunity."
Liu Qiao: "He has no experience at all. He's only nineteen."
"You don't need age to run a magazine," Xin Zixing said seriously. "Besides, he's Lu Yanhe. He's not just an ordinary high school graduate. He has even more resources than we do. Not to mention, we at Yemai.com are backing him up."
Liu Qiao knew that he had been persuaded by Xin Zixing.
"Will you still be the one to coordinate our efforts?" Liu Qiao asked. "Are you able to handle it now? Will you be too busy to handle it?"
Xin Zixing shook her head and said, "If you could assign me another person, I'd certainly be willing, but I doubt you'll assign me another. Setting up the filming team for 'City Travels' will require several people. I'm also planning to train Liu Yaliang to take over the fashion department."
"Her? She works three days and rests two days, how can she be trained? She is just a relative who got in through the back door to provide retirement care." Liu Qiao's words showed that he was not satisfied with Liu Yaliang.
Xin Zixing: "She is a relative, but if placed in the right position, people with connections can also do well."
"It's up to you. Anyway, all the work of our Yemai.com is supported by you alone. The tens of millions of advertising fees every year are brought back by your sector. Just don't affect these." Liu Qiao said.
Xin Zixing: "I will be the final check, don't worry."
"So you really want to get Lu Yanhe to do this e-magazine?"
"To be precise, theme books are more suitable for the reading interface of electronic readers," Xin Zixing said. "As long as you approve, I will contact him immediately and come up with a specific implementation plan. How about it?"
"If you are willing to do it yourself, of course I'm OK with that. I have always valued you in our content editing department, you know." Liu Qiao said.
Xin Zixing nodded, "OK, then, Editor-in-Chief, how much money are you going to give me to make this book?"
She looked at Liu Qiao with a smile and asked.
-
"Mingyin's 'Star Orbit' is a perfect fit for our theme," Chen Siqi said. "This is a book you recommended before. As you're sure you know, it's about the growth trajectory of a group of high school students, filled with warmth, miracles, friendship, dreams, and other elements. The book is also very popular right now, currently ranking in the top ten of the sales charts on all major platforms. If we can invite Mingyin to write a short story in the 'Star Orbit' series, we'll have our first article that can attract readers."
Lu Yanhe wrote it down, nodded, and said, "I'll contact Mingyin, but I don't know if she's willing."
"Let's try first. Besides Mingyin, are there any other writers you can contact?"
Lu Yanhe said, "The only writers I know are Liu Jiazhen and Mingyin."
"Liujiazhen writes crime mysteries, so maybe it's not suitable for our topic?" Chen Siqi asked, "Or would he be willing to write one around our theme?"
"If you want to ask him, I'll ask both Mingyin and him." Lu Yanhe said.
Chen Siqi nodded. "Besides those two, we're going to do one thing over the next couple of days: gather creators whose themes and styles match ours, and then work with them to commission articles. Besides novels, I've come to realize there's actually a lot of other content we can include in the magazine, like real high school stories."
"Do you have any ideas about what sections the magazine should have?"
"Right now, I've only thought of adding a column called 'True Truths', in addition to novels and essays. I'd like to invite contributions from real high school students, asking them to anonymously express things they wouldn't normally share with others," Chen Siqi said. "Do you have any ideas?"
"A few ideas."
Lu Yanhe opened the document he had written and turned his computer screen towards Chen Siqi.
"The first one is a memoir. When I designed it, I was thinking of targeting the users of Yemai.com. Yemai.com's users are mainly between 20 and 35 years old. Most of them have already graduated from high school. So, I wanted to create a section to reminisce about high school and find some high school stories that everyone can resonate with."
"The second one is about the student days of celebrities. I'll invite a few people to write about their student days, which should attract some attention."
"If you can get some celebrity artists to write about this, it should attract a lot of attention."
…
Li Pengfei listened to the two of them discussing seriously for almost an hour. It was almost noon, and he was really surprised for a moment. He didn't expect that these two people were serious.
"Hey, do you two want to take a break?" Li Pengfei asked. "Aren't you tired after talking for so long?"
Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi were interrupted by him and were stunned for a moment. When they looked at the time, they found that it was already twelve o'clock without them noticing.
"Let's have lunch first. What do you want to eat?" Lu Yanhe asked.
Li Pengfei: "I just found a very good store. Come on, I'll take you there."
He immediately smiled brightly.
-
After getting in the car, Lu Yanhe was about to sort out what he had just discussed with Chen Siqi when his phone suddenly vibrated.
When he saw that the message was from Xin Zixing, his heart skipped a beat. He held his breath and opened the letter: Yan He, I am very interested in the idea you proposed yesterday. Can we find a time to meet and talk?
Lu Yanhe opened his eyes wide in surprise.
"Yes!" He looked at Chen Siqi excitedly, "It's done!"
"What's done?" Chen Siqi asked, confused.
Lu Yanhe said, "I contacted Yemai.com, and an editor I know just replied to me, saying he's interested in our magazine and wants to meet with me to have a chat."
Chen Siqi didn't seem surprised. She nodded and said, "Then you can talk to her and see what she says and what conditions she can offer."
"Okay." Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "How about you come with me?"
Chen Siqi looked at him in surprise and said, "They only made an appointment with you, not me."
"That's because she doesn't know you're involved. Since she wants to talk to me about the magazine, it would be better if you also participate," Lu Yanhe said. "You have a lot of ideas about this magazine, and only you know them best."
Li Pengfei was driving and was surprised to hear Lu Yanhe say that someone was actually interested.
In this day and age, does anyone really believe that e-magazines can succeed?! -
At 3:30 in the afternoon, Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi arrived downstairs at Yemai.com.
Driver Li Pengfei.
"I'll just drop you off here and leave you alone. I still have to go pick up Xu Zijun."
"Got it, thank you." Lu Yanhe waved to Li Pengfei.
Li Pengfei stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi looked at the tall building in front of them.
Yemai.com rented a five-story building specifically for itself. However, because the building is not located in the CBD in the city center, but in a science and technology park on the outskirts of the city, the rent is much cheaper.
As soon as Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi entered the gate, they were stopped by the access control system.
The security guard took one look at them and asked, "What do you do?"
Lu Yanhe said, "We have an appointment to meet someone, and she will be coming down to pick us up soon."
"Oh." The security guard glanced at them and saw that they had no intention of forcing their way in, so he ignored them and sat down on the chair.
After a while, Xin Zixiong came jogging hurriedly.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." Xin Zixiong greeted the security guard and let them in.
Lu Yanhe: "No, thank you Sister Zixing for your help."
Xin Zixing waved her hand and said, "Come to my office and talk."
-
Xin Zixiong's office is very tidy. There is a lot of information, but it is very tidy. This is the first impression this office gives people.
Xin Zixing asked Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi to sit down and asked, "What would you like to drink? Coffee or water?"
"Just water."
Xin Zixiong poured them two glasses of water, sat down again and looked at Chen Siqi.
Just on the way to the office, Lu Yanhe had already introduced her to Xin Zixing.
Xin Zixing smiled at Chen Siqi and asked, "Can I know how you two suddenly came up with the idea of making an e-magazine?"
"Honestly, Sister Zixing, you might not believe this, but we just suddenly talked about it at the book fair that day. Since we were bored this summer, we hit it off and decided to do this together," Lu Yanhe said. "We both loved reading magazines when we were in school, but a lot of them stopped publishing later. So we joked that if we had the chance in the future, we'd start a magazine."
Xin Zixing nodded and said, "Nowadays, almost no company will launch a new magazine, and this is even more true for e-magazines. Before paper magazines completely died out, e-magazines ended in failure."
"Yeah." Lu Yanhe said, "We know that too, so we're just asking with a glimmer of hope."
"However, I believe the format and medium can be changed." Xin Zixing nodded. "Today, I also want to talk to you about changing the e-magazine into a Mook and making it into a themed book. Would you be willing?"
Mook translated into Chinese actually means magazine-type book.
Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi were both stunned and a little surprised.
Xin Zixing picked up three books from her desk and handed them to them.
"You can take a look at these Mooks published in the last three years. They're all edited and compiled by renowned authors," Xin Zixing said. "They're actually very similar to magazines, but they're larger than regular magazines. I also think this format is more suitable for e-reading than traditional magazines. What do you think?"
Chen Siqi said, "But a Mook like this would require the editor to be very well-known, right?"
"I think Yan He is well-known enough for this," Xin Zixing said. "Mook, which he has launched as editor-in-chief, will definitely attract a lot of attention."
"We don't plan to have Yan He's name appear on the magazine's editorial team," said Chen Siqi.
Xin Zixing was stunned.
"Why?"
"Because we want to keep it pure," Chen Siqi said. "Relying on Lu Yanhe's name to promote this magazine, or Mook, would turn it into a product with a strong fan base, which was not our original intention."
Xin Zixiong looked at them in shock, obviously not expecting them to have such an idea.
If Lu Yanhe hadn't been the editor-in-chief, would anyone have read this Mook?
"I know this will definitely make both you and Yemai.com feel uneasy," Chen Siqi said. "We'll cover the production costs for the first phase, and Yemai.com will only be responsible for listing and promoting the product. If you think it's okay, you can continue with the project and we can discuss future collaborations. How about that?"
Chen Siqi sat upright, exuding a kind of neither humble nor arrogant air that only belonged to her age.
Xin Zixiong frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
Seeing this, Lu Yanhe said, "Sister Zixing, I know you must have doubts, but I'm not doing this for fun. In fact, we just don't want the book to be tagged with Lu Yanhe's name. I will still do my best to make this book a success. We have already conceived three sections, you can take a look."
Chen Siqi took out the information she had printed in advance from her bag and handed it to Xin Zixiong.
Xin Zixiong took it hesitantly.
"For the first section, fiction, we plan to invite Ming Yin, the author of the recently popular 'Star Orbit,' and Liu Jiazhen, the author of 'Nineteen Years of Crime Records,' to write short stories for our theme. Of course, we will also try to use our connections at Jiangyin Publishing House to see if we can invite more well-known writers to join us."
"The second section is about celebrity artists' student days. We plan to invite artists like Jiang Yuqian, Li Zhibai, Yan Liang, and of course, Lu Yanhe, to write articles about their memories of their student days."
"For the third section, we want to run a call for submissions on Yemai.com, collecting everyone's memories of their school days and selecting good stories and articles to include in the book."
Chen Siqi briefly introduced the ideas they had currently formulated.
Xin Zixiong was somewhat surprised at the initiative of these two young people, who had actually come up with a rough framework.
"The current design is quite impressive, but can you invite these people?"
"Let's work towards this goal first," Lu Yanhe continued. "But we will do this seriously."
Xin Zixing nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Well, I can't give you a very clear answer today. As you said, if the editor-in-chief can't use your name, I have to be honest, many people will not trust this plan. However, the plan you put forward really makes me excited. If you can finally make 50% of the creators of this book reach the level of creators on this plan, I will give you the green light. As for the production funds, please make a detailed list for me. Since we are cooperating with Yemai.com, we certainly can't get it for free, especially since this is your project, Lu Yanhe. The senior management of our company will not allow us to face such a crisis of public opinion for free. However, whether we can get this production fund in the end depends on how much of your plan can be realized."
Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi looked at each other.
Chen Siqi nodded.
Lu Yanhe agreed.
Xin Zixing nodded and said, "Then I'll wait for your news. To be honest, I really hope that this Mook can be completed and become a long-term brand of our Yemai Network."
-
After the two sides finished talking, Xin Zixiong sent them out.
As a result, as soon as they went out, they were surprised by the crowd at the door.
There were more than a dozen people standing outside Xin Zixiong's office.
Xin Zixing looked at them in surprise and asked, "What are you doing standing here?"
Someone glanced at Lu Yanhe sheepishly and said, "We heard that Lu Yanhe was here, so we wanted to come and see him."
Lu Yanhe nodded to them flattered.
Some people were taking pictures of him with their cell phones, and some were talking to the people next to them. Lu Yanhe could hear what they were saying, and the gist of it was that he was very handsome in real life.
Lu Yanhe was already accustomed to such scenes, but what happened today surprised him.
This is Yemai.com. Lu Yanhe thought that everyone was relatively knowledgeable and would not be so surprised by his appearance.
Xin Zixing waved at them and said, "He's here to talk to me about work. Stop pestering him like a fan. Just get back to your work."
"Can we at least take a photo together?" someone said.
Xin Zixing looked at Lu Yanhe helplessly.
Lu Yanhe nodded and said it was no problem.
So Lu Yanhe took a photo with them.
Lu Yanhe was somewhat flattered by everyone's welcome.
If he remembered correctly, this was the first time he was welcomed by so many people in a company.
There was even a steady stream of people rushing over after hearing the news, just wanting to see him with their own eyes.
In the past, Lu Yanhe only had the title of idol artist, but he actually had no experience of how popular he was as a star. Later, on the stage and on the street, he met some people who recognized him and wanted his autograph and photos.
This time, however, the welcome he received at Yemai.com gave Lu Yanhe a completely different feeling. Being suddenly surrounded by a group of people, their expressions showing genuine affection and admiration for him, felt completely different from being recognized on the street and asked for an autograph. The former was a genuine liking for him, while the latter was more of an excitement of meeting a celebrity.
"Come on, Lu Yanhe! You have to be well and stay as youthful and sunny as you are now. Don't do anything that violates the law and don't let our house collapse!" A young woman shouted.
Lu Yanhe looked back at the woman, feeling both amused and helpless.
Immediately, another person said with a smile: "Keep up the good work, cooperate with us on Yemai.com more often in the future, and come to our Yemai.com more often!"
Lu Yanhe smiled and nodded. They walked all the way to the gate of Yemai.com, followed by many people.
Xin Zixing shook her head and said helplessly, "You're really popular on our Yemai website. Many people like your film 'City Travels'."
Most of the people who come to work at Yemai.com are a bit literary and artistic. This year, such an artistic artist suddenly appeared, and he is so awesome. He is not at all like other artists. It is like he hit their vital point. Lu Yanhe has become the idol of many people.
Lu Yanhe smiled and thanked Xin Zixing.
At this time, the car Chen Siqi called arrived.
Xin Zixing saw them off to the car and watched them leave.
-
"Then you have to invite these people through your connections."
After getting in the car, Chen Siqi said to Lu Yanhe.
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "I'll contact them in the next two days."
Chen Siqi said, "Okay, in the next few days, I will also go online and some creative platforms to collect some people who are suitable for invitation. Whether they are internet celebrities or UP hosts, as long as they have a certain number of fans and popularity, I will screen them. Then we will determine which ones are more suitable and send them invitations."
Lu Yanhe said, "Why don't we wait a moment and let me ask Sister Yuqian if they're willing. If they are, we can get the consent of Yemai Network and then move forward."
"If Yemai.com doesn't agree, will you not do it?" Chen Siqi asked.
Lu Yanhe hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not that we won't do it if they don't agree. It's just that if they don't agree, even if we make it ourselves, we won't have a channel to sell it to the public."
"I will also look for other suitable platforms." Chen Siqi said, "If Yemai.com can't do it, I'll see if there are other platforms that can."
Lu Yanhe looked at her in surprise.
"Is this okay?"
"Why not?" Chen Siqi said, "My dad started his business by negotiating with each company one by one. The writers and artists we can contact are resources that others can't reach no matter how hard they try. We already have a great advantage."
"The problem is, we have no professional knowledge at all," Lu Yanhe said. "I was thinking that if Yemai.com agreed, we could leave the editing, typesetting, and design to them."
"We can also hire people ourselves," Chen Siqi said directly. "With the development of the Internet, it's easy to find professionals, but it's hard to find the right ones. Anyway, a new magazine and a new team need to be adjusted. It's a matter of adjusting with the people at Yemai.com, and it's also a matter of adjusting with the people we find ourselves."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
Chen Siqi: "Besides, you're going to Zhenhua University soon, and I'm going to Jiangguang University soon. There are so many talented people in those schools, and every university has so many talented people. As long as we can find them, there will be no shortage of people in the future, whether it's design or text editing."
Chen Siqi looked proud and confident.
In fact, Lu Yanhe knew that this matter was definitely not that simple and would definitely encounter many difficulties, including those talented students in the school. He knew there must be some, but they might not be willing to join. Even if they were willing to join, it was hard to say whether they could immediately enter the production of a commercial magazine. This all required running-in and repeated cooperation.
But when he saw Chen Siqi's confident look, Lu Yanhe felt that he still had to learn from Chen Siqi.
No matter how many difficulties there are, don't talk to yourself first. Believe in yourself confidently and proudly, and you will be able to overcome them no matter how many difficulties there are.
Lu Yanhe laughed.
He said, "No matter what, we have to make at least one copy."
"Well, since we have decided to do it, we have to produce something." Chen Siqi nodded.
-
When talking to Chen Ziyan on the phone, Lu Yanhe told her that he was going to do a magazine.
Chen Ziyan was silent for several seconds.
"Are you serious about what you're saying to me?"
"Um."
"Have you...thought this over carefully?"
"No." Lu Yanhe said frankly, "I thought about it for a whole night and decided to do it."
"So do you think you can do it?"
"I want to do it, and I will do it," said Lu Yanhe.
Chen Ziyan smiled and sighed, then said, "Okay, I hope you're not just impulsive. I don't think you have that kind of personality."
“Well, I do this with my classmates.”
"Classmate? Which classmate?"
"Chen Siqi."
"Oh, her." Chen Ziyan's reaction surprised Lu Yanhe, because there was suddenly a hint of "no wonder" in Chen Ziyan's tone.
Lu Yanhe knew that Chen Ziyan must have misunderstood.
But there was no misunderstanding.
If he hadn't done this with Chen Siqi, Lu Yanhe didn't know if he would be so proactive.
Chen Ziyan said, "You still have 'Young Days' to record and you have to go to school. Are you sure you still have the energy to do this?"
"It's summer vacation now and we have nothing to do, so we should find something to do. Let's do the first one first, and we'll see how we do the rest later."
"Sure, that's great. It's better than playing games," Chen Ziyan said. "But, there's something I want to tell you. A film company wants to make a college entrance exam inspirational movie based on you, and they've come to me to discuss the copyright. What are your thoughts?"
"Ah?" Lu Yanhe shook his head immediately after hearing this. "No."
Make a movie based on him?
It really feels a bit weird.
His success in the college entrance examination was not due to his success in that year, but was the result of his accumulation before he traveled through time.
