PS Chapter 89 – The Most Suitable Gift

On July 3rd, Lu Chen passed the official audition of “Singing China” very smoothly, and advanced to the qualification competition.

“Singing China” is the first reality talent show launched by Beijing Satellite TV. Its theme is called “Sing while walking” and “Singing to Greater China”. It is jointly organized by Beijing Satellite TV in conjunction with Youshi, NetEase Music, and Tianya culture. Therefore, it has attracted wide attention in China.

“Singing China” is divided into seven major singing districts: Beijing, Shengjing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Tianfu, Huacheng and Bihai. The final champion is determined by a unique round of competition, with a total prize amount of more than 30,000,000!

Since 2008, the domestic variety industry has been surging. “Super Girl”, represented by Xiangnan Satellite TV, has set off a boom in reality shows, and has achieved great success.

Many satellite TV stations have begun to follow suit. And similar variety shows have emerged one after another, forming a strong pattern. Over the years, the competition between them has been fierce.

Originally, Beijing Satellite TV has always been a bystander in this competition, giving people a very reserved feeling.

But in the face of great benefits, any reservation is doomed to not last.

Therefore, when summer vacation came this year, Beijing Satellite TV brazenly launched the long-brewing “Singing China”. With its strong background and resources as the support, it sounded the horn of them marching into the stage of variety show.

Beijing Satellite TV’s three major partners, Youshi Network, NetEase Music and Tianya Culture, are all outstanding in the domestic industry. They are based on the metropolitan area and dares to face Xiangnan Satellite TV’s “Super Singer”.

The audition timing chosen by Beijing Satellite TV is very opportune, just after Xiangnan Satellite TV’s “Super Singer”, so a large number of eliminated contestants can turn to the “Singing China” camp, and the latter’s requirements are obviously much broader than the former, so people with good songs have the opportunity to qualify for promotion.

But in Beijing, the only thing that it didn’t lack is talented people.

Lu Chen didn’t even take out his original works during the official audition. He easily got the promotion card by playing and singing “Flying Pigeon”.

“I’ll tell everybody the good news; I will take part in the competition “Singing China” on the 10th of this month!”

“Everybody is welcome to watch the live broadcast, and I also ask everybody for their generous support!”

When Lu Chen announced the news to his hundreds of thousands of online fans on [Whale TV] live broadcast, the whole broadcasting room was boiling, and the barrage was like a river bursting its banks, flooding the whole screen.

“long live the anchor!”

“Wow, haha, I can’t believe we can see Lu Fei on TV!”

“Support! Come on! Work hard!”

“Congratulations to the anchor. Wishing the anchor win the championship.”

“The people of Beijing send their congratulations. Le Fei is invincible and is the best!”

“The people of Southern Hunan send their congratulations!”

“The people of Zhedong send their congratulations!”

“The people of Shenzhen send their congratulations!”

“The people of Baodao...”

Accompanied by rows of barrages, there are countless fish balls, as well as a number of aircraft carriers!

In fact, a long time ago, his fans had hoped that Lu Chen would participate in a talent show. Everyone thought that with his talent, he should not succumb to online live broadcasting, but he should become a real star on a larger and broader stage.

Although the current online live broadcasting is very popular, the income of popular online anchors is not worse than that of a third or fourth rate stars, but in people’s impression, the influence of the two can’t be compared.

And now that Lu Chen has finally taken this step, most people feel happy and bless him!

In the eyes of these fans, Lu Chen is a figure that everyone supports, and it would be praiseworthy if he could kill all sides in the talent show.

If Lu Chen becomes a big star in the future, they can proudly say to others that they have talked, fought, and worked together with a big star.

“Congratulations, boss!”

After the live broadcast was over, Li Bai sent Lu Chen a private message through WeChat: “You don’t need to say anything. Just watch our army’s performance, and we promise that we will not let you down!”

No reality talent show can ignore the audience. Whether it is text message voting, online voting or telephone voting, the audience’s influence has always been the most important.

Even if there is insider manipulation, the data will always show that audience and fans’ vote make up the largest proportion.

This is precisely where Lu Chen’s advantages lie. At present, the number of viewers in Lu Fei’s live broadcasting room is close to one million, and the members of Lu Army in the WeChat group exceeds 50,000. Once they are fully operational, they are undoubtedly a strong supporting force!

From online live broadcasting to the pan-entertainment circle. Not only Lu Chen has a high chance to succeed, but there have been successful examples in the past.

“Thank you!”

Lu Chen replied and at the same time clicked on a file and sent it to him.

Li Bai: “?”

Lu Chen: “A small gift for you. I hope you will like it.”

Li Bai: “Boss, is this your real-life personal video? Let me be clear, I’m straight!”

Lu Chen: “...”

Li Bai received the file and looked over it.

After five minutes, Li Bai asked, “Boss, is this for me?”

Even across the screen, Lu Chen could feel the other party’s surprise.

He smiled and quickly tapped on the keyboard. “Yes, this song is my gift to you. I didn’t register it to the Greater China Music Library. It’s up to you if you want to register it under your name!”

All this time, the one who Lu Chen has been most grateful to is the friend he has never met, his number one fan.

In the initial stage of Lu Chen’s live broadcasting career, if Li Bai didn’t spare no effort to support him, then he could not have achieved today’s achievements and earned so much money through live broadcasting.

Li Bai himself alone, has rewarded more than 20,000. The army fans have also been in his management. The number of times he had sprinkled out red envelopes had already been uncountable.

As the saying goes if one gets the grace of dripping water, one should repay it with a gushing spring!

Lu Chen has always been a man who is clear about gratitude and grudges. He is very grateful to Li Bai for his support, but he doesn’t know how to repay him.

This local tyrant is a typical rich second generation. According to his own words that he told Lu Chen, in addition to spending money in his daily life, even if his father does not expect him to do anything, and as long as he is safe and quiet and don’t cause trouble, in the future, as long as he have a son to carry on his family name, everything is okay.

And through their usual communication, Lu Chen also knows that Li Bai likes music very much. He once formed a band, and once had the dream of being a singer, but he didn’t have any talent. At most, he can only run inside the bar to entertain himself.

That’s why he was so supportive of Lu Chen.

Knowing this, Lu Chen had an idea. He carefully selected a song and gave it to Li Bai as a gift.

Lu Chen believes that this is the most suitable gift!

Li Bai was silent and did not respond for a long time.

Lu Chen thought he got disconnected, he couldn’t help asking, “Are you there?”

Li Bai replied, “Yes, thank you, boss!”

Lu Chen smiled and said, “I want to thank you with this song. You should ask someone to help arrange the song, preferably one who is good at country rock style, and then make a single!”

A few minutes later, Li Bai replied, “All right.”

Lu Chen felt a little strange, but he didn’t care. After saying goodbye to him, he signed out to rest.

At the same time, Beijing Second Ring Road, A7 Villa.

The lights were still on in the study room on the third floor of the villa. A young man in his 20s sat in front of the computer, looking blank and no one knew what he was thinking.

And on the computer screen, it was displaying a song’s score.

After a while, he jumped up as if he had woken up from a dream and grabbed his cell phone on his desk.

Skillfully dialing the number, the young man walked restlessly back and forth in the study room.

After waiting for a few seconds, the call got through and he said, “Hello?”

The young man yelled impatiently, “Hey, I’m Li Mubai!”

“You, hurry and find me an arranger, I want the best, and must be good at country rock style. Money is not a problem. I have a song to arrange!”

“So late? The nightlife hasn’t even started yet. Who of those guys went to bed so early?” (TN: If you got confused on this sentence, so did I.)

“Remember, they must be the best!”

“I want to reorganize the band...”

After the phone call, the young man sat back on his chair and breathed a sigh of relief.

He blinked his eyes and suddenly felt something strange. He subconsciously reached out his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes.

His fingertips were wet.

The young man was stupefied and immediately scolded, “His mother...”

But his voice was very light.

TN: I don’t know if QQ and WeChat are the same. Before, the Chinese word ?? was translated as QQ by the previous translator so I just copied that since I can’t find a proper translation for it. But recently, I found out that it was translated as WeChat. And from now on I will use WeChat instead of QQ. Unless I’m wrong on this.
