The song "Dedication of Love" was put out by Lu Chen to thank those people inside and outside the circle who supported the charity crowdfunding project and was put on the Inspur blog.
He never thought of seeking benefits or fame by relying on this song – there was no need for that at all.
However, Lu Chen did not expect that the great god of Yanhuang Charity Association actually took a fancy to "Dedication of Love", came to buy the license, and invited him to participate in the MV of the public service advertisement.
Lu Chen directly gave a free permanent license.
Later, Chen Fei 'er told him that he did the right thing.
Whether in China or abroad, there are many benefits for star artists to do charity or to establish a good cooperative relationship with authoritative charities.
In China, the reputation of charity is like adding a layer of amulet to oneself, and people always look up to them.
For example, Chen Fei 'er herself has long-term cooperation and exchanges with Yanhuang Charity Association.
Like Lu Chen, she will also participate in the public service advertisement of "Dedication of Love".
On the way back from Jinling to Jinling, Lu Chen and Chen Fei 'er sat in the same car. Because the work later involved the arrangement of Yanhuang Charity Association, she revealed a lot of inside information.
Last year and this year, there was a lot of trouble in the domestic charity world, which had a Big impact on the image of the public.
Although these were not all Yanhuang Charity Association's fault, as the top existence in the domestic charity structure, the Association was also passive. The pressure from the top made them urgently need to carry out publicity and re-erect a good image.
It was at this time that Lu Chen carried out charity crowdfunding through the crowdfunding website, which caused a great impact on the Internet. His creation of "Dedication of Love" is very much in line with the taste of Yanhuang Charity Association.
Otherwise, how could such a good thing fall on Lu Chen's head?
Looking at the list of stars selected to participate in the public service advertisement – Li Xing, Tan Hong, Chen Fei 'er, Liu Zonghan, Xi Rong … and so on are all big figures.
Including Lu Chen himself, the final list was 15 stars, all of whom were more famous than him.
Moreover, the director of this public service announcement was the famous director Yu Jiande. This 60-year-old director had filmed more than 20 movies and had won awards at international film festivals. He enjoyed a high reputation.
Zhang Wentian, who Lu Chen knows, is also a big director, but compared with Yu Jiande, he is at least a little worse.
Chen Fei 'er said, "If you are chosen by Director Yu to make a movie, you will really reach the sky in one step."
Lu Chen laughed involuntarily.
He knew that Chen Fei 'er was joking, and he was also reminding him to take this job seriously.
Even if he didn't earn a single cent.
Lu Chen held Chen Fei 'er's hand and said, "It's better for me to be the director and make a movie myself, and you'll be the heroine for me. Let's reach the sky together, okay?"
Chen Fei'er felt sweet and said, "You still want to be a director? Alright then, as long as you can act in a movie, I'll be the female lead for you. You can't go back on your word! "
Lu Chen laughed.
Chen Fei'er didn't take it seriously, but he was serious. However, it would take a long time for this idea to be realized. At present, his accumulation was too little.
He had to take it one step at a time. Now Lu Chen was walking very fast. It was too easy to fall if he sped up and ran.
The Mercedes-Benz carrying the two of them sped along the Jin Jing Expressway and returned to the capital before dark.
Chen Fei'er first sent Lu Chen back to the apartment.
Although the two of them kissed in Jinling, because of career reasons, this relationship was not going to be public for the time being.
Again, Lu Chen rose too fast, and his foundation and accumulation were not enough. Once the relationship between the two of them was made public, he would be under great pressure, which would seriously hinder the development of his career.
The simplest was the media reporters. Those paparazzi would inevitably stare at him every day and disturb his peace.
There had been precedents for this kind of situation, which was not what Lu Chen wanted to see.
So at present, the two could only be dating in secret, and it would not be too late to make it public when the time was right in the future.
Another very important aspect was that the separation of men and women in the entertainment industry was too common. There were really few who could stick to it for a long time. Even if they broke up in secret, it would not make a big deal.
This was also the norm in the circle.
On November 18th, the second day after Lu Chen returned to the capital, he arrived at the scheduled place.
Participating in the shooting of the MV of the public service advertisement "Dedication of Love".
The gathering point of star actors and singers was at the headquarters of Flying Stone Records. Lu Chen was also familiar with the place.
In the VIP lounge, he met many famous people, such as Li Xing, Tan Hong, Chen Fei'er, and Liu Zonghan. He also met Liao Jia, Xi Rong, and other big names in the pop music and show business for the first time.
Yu Jiande was also present.
The director, who was renowned both at home and abroad, was tall and sturdy. He had a square face, and his white hair was braided. He was wearing a gray shirt with an open collar, navy blue trousers, and black cloth shoes. He had a sage-like demeanor.
It was said that this director Yu was a devout Taoist. When he was a teenager, he learned martial arts in Wudang Mountain. In the 1990s, he also made a movie called "Wudang Mountain", which caused a considerable sensation in China.
The time for the meeting was 9: 30 in the morning, but just after 9: 00, all the stars were already in place.
No star dared to act like a big shot in such a thing. Even if they were shooting movies or TV shows in other places, they would specially ask for leave to rush back to the capital, not to mention being late – that would cause public anger!
It was still early, so everyone sat and chatted. The entertainment industry could be said to be very big, but in fact, it was also very small. Two characters who were originally not related to each other could have a close connection through a third party, and there were countless people who knew each other and had friendship with each other.
Some of them were friends, and they hadn't seen each other for a long time. Now that they met here, it was another surprise.
"Brother Tan Hong!"
Lu Chen first looked for Tan Hong.
The singing superstar is now basically in a state of retirement. It is said that he will hold a farewell concert at the end of the year, announcing his official withdrawal from the pop music world.
So since the end of the "Singing China" competition, Lu Chen hasn't seen Tan Hong again.
But he has always remembered Tan Hong's help and support for him.
Tan Hong smiled and patted Lu Chen on the arm and said, "Xiao Lu, long time no see. I've often seen your name on the blog recently. You've done a good job!"
He looked meaningfully at Chen Fei 'er, who was standing beside him, and said with a smile, "I heard that Fei' er has been abducted to be the heroine now? That's amazing! "
Lu Chen smiled bitterly.
Chen Fei 'er's pretty face reddened, and she said angrily, "Brother Tan Hong …"
Tan Hong laughed and said, "No kidding, Xiao Lu, let me introduce you to some teachers."
Among this group of people, Lu Chen is definitely a junior, and his status in the circle is far worse than theirs.
If it were any other newcomer, encountering such a rare opportunity, they would probably have the cheek to strike up a conversation, and even flatter for attention, hoping to be able to say a few words with these big shots.
To stay in the entertainment industry for a long time, networking is really important. Oftentimes, the big brother above leaks something out, and it's enough for the people below to eat their fill.
Lu Chen was different from ordinary newcomers. Although his appearance was modest, he had a proud and unyielding character. He would never take the initiative to ingratiate himself with others.
But with Tan Hong's introduction, the situation is completely different.
"This is Liao Jia, Teacher Liao …"
Tan Hong first introduced Lu Chen to Liao Jia, a big brother in the pop music world.
Liao Jia is very legendary in the circle. He was born in the early 1970s, debuted in the late 1980s, and became popular in the 1990s because of rock and roll. He is one of the representatives of light rock and roll.
Liao Jia has a very good relationship with the Black Ravens, a national rock band active in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They have released three albums with a total sales of more than 20 million, and are regarded as the mainstay of national rock and roll.
Gao Yi, the lead singer and soul of the Black Ravens, is Liao Jia's mentor. Later, Gao Yi accidentally fell off the stage during the concert rehearsal, resulting in a serious skull injury, and eventually died in Chaoyang People's Hospital at the age of 32.
Gao Yi's unexpected death is undoubtedly a heavy blow to national rock. The Black Ravens, which has always been a leading role, has since been unable to recover and disbanded two years later, leaving national rock fans with endless sorrow.
Liao Jia resolutely took over Gao Yi's rock and roll banner, formed the Black Memory band, released two albums, and also opened a national concert tour, and was regarded as the successor of national rock.
However, because of the impact of the general environment, national rock quickly declined, and Liao Jia and the Black Memory band were unable to turn the tide.
At the beginning of 2000, the Black Memory band almost disbanded.
In order to survive and continue, Liao Jia changed to light rock and even love songs, and also wrote works for other singers. At that time, he was regarded as a traitor by many national rock fans, but he achieved greater success and established his position in the music industry.
This big brother of the music industry is in his forties this year. He is not very tall, and his appearance is very ordinary. He has small eyes and thin cheekbones, and his face is a little fierce. His face is bumpy, and he looks like a big brother in a black suit.
"Hello, Teacher Liao!"
Lu Chen held out his hands to him. "I've listened to your songs since I was a child!"
When Tan Hong introduced him to Lu Chen, Liao Jia stared at Lu Chen with bright eyes until Lu Chen held out his hand. A smile appeared on his face. "Hello!"
Liao Jia's hand is a little cold, the skin is very rough, and the knuckles of his fingers are very strong.
Lu Chen felt his strength when he shook hands with him.
Tan Hong said with a smile, "Xiao Lu is very talented. Old Liao, please take care of him in the future and guide the newcomer."
Liao Jia let go of his hand and said with a faint smile, "Since you said so, of course I have to give you face."
Lu Chen politely said, "Thank you, Teacher Liao."
He keenly felt that this big brother of the music industry in front of him seems to have a little hostility towards him!
