Among the people present, only Chen Fei 'er and Lu Xi knew that "Yi Jin Gu" was actually Lu Chen's sockpuppet.
Although they didn't understand the reason why Lu Chen hid himself, it stood to reason that this was a good thing to add a halo to himself. But since Lu Chen was determined to do this, the two closest people to Lu Chen naturally supported him unconditionally.
Hearing Zhang Yaocheng's expectant inquiry, Chen Fei 'er couldn't help but secretly roll his eyes at Lu Chen.
Lu Chen noticed Chen Fei 'er's eyes. He smiled and said, "President Zhang, I don't know, but you can rest assured that his new book will still cooperate with Shanhai Publishing House."
"Yi Jin Gu" was him, and this guarantee was, of course, genuine.
Zhang Yaocheng very much wanted to talk to the author himself. After all, "Yi Jin Gu" was now a cash cow of Shanhai Publishing House. If it was poached by others, then he, the deputy general manager and editor-in-chief, would probably have to resign. Otherwise, it would be difficult to atone for his crime!
Originally, Zhang Yaocheng was not particularly nervous, but after watching the first movie of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer", he was keenly aware that this martial arts movie was likely to have a sensational impact, and the result would inevitably have a huge impetus to the popularity of martial arts novels.
It was inevitable that the value of "Yi Jin Gu" would increase greatly, and it would inevitably be coveted by competitors.
If he didn't even have this vigilance, how could Zhang Yaocheng become the head of Shanhai Publishing House from an ordinary salesman?
Now that he had received a personal guarantee from Lu Chen, although he couldn't say that he was completely relieved, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Following Lin Zhijie in front of him, Zhang Yaocheng was also satisfied when he left.
Then Beijing Television, Zhedong Satellite TV, QQ, SYG … and other high-level guests invited to the ceremony expressed their congratulations to Lu Chen.
Time passed quickly as they toasted each other.
The guests began to leave, and Lu Chen, Chen Fei 'er and Lu Xi, as the hosts, saw them off one by one.
"Hello, Lu Chen!"
Lu Chen had just seen off the manager in charge of QQ Video, and a middle-aged man greeted him politely.
Lu Chen smiled and shook hands with him. "Hello …"
He had laughed too much tonight, and his face was almost stiff. But that was how it was in the social arena.
As for the man in front of him, Lu Chen did not recognize him at all. He was merely entertaining him out of courtesy.
The middle-aged man introduced himself. "My name is Meng Shaotang …"
Lu Chen immediately reacted and quickly said, "So it's Teacher Meng. Nice to meet you!"
He had a good memory. He had seen the guest list for tonight's premiere. Although he hadn't met many of them before, he had memorized their basic information.
Meng Shaotang was a very famous freelance writer. The ID of his Waves blog was "Teacher Meng". He had written many film reviews and had over a million fans.
It must be pointed out that Meng Shaotang was really a teacher, but he resigned a few years ago.
Lu Chen still remembered that he had read several of his articles, which were very well written.
Meng Shaotang said with a smile, "You're welcome. It's my honor to be invited by Chen Fei Media and meet you here. Your" The Smiling, Proud Wanderer "was better than I thought. Tonight's trip was really worthwhile!"
Lu Chen thanked him: "Thank you!"
Meng Shaotang said very earnestly, "After watching this movie, I have a lot of ideas. I'm going to write a film review when I go back tonight. I know your time is very precious, but I really hope to have a detailed chat with you if I have the opportunity. Let's talk about martial arts movies. I don't know if this wish of mine can be realized?"
"Of course, that's no problem …"
Lu Chen was ready to agree immediately, but a new idea quickly emerged in his mind.
"Teacher Meng, if I want to put this conversation on TV, I wonder if you would be willing?"
Put it on TV?
Meng Shaotang was suddenly stunned, but he was also considered half an insider. In the blink of an eye, he understood Lu Chen's idea.
No one's success was by luck!
Meng Shaotang, who understood, admired Lu Chen greatly. This was obviously an idea that came up with on the spur of the moment. It was not the result of planning, but it was a perfect balance of time and interests.
The TV station would definitely welcome this talk show. Lu Chen's influence was right there. Moreover, it was a movie that had just been released, so the ratings must be good.
Lu Chen could take this opportunity to promote his own movie. Not only did he not need to spend a penny, he might even get an appearance fee.
As for himself …
Although Meng Shaotang was a very romantic freelance writer, he was not a saint who did not care about worldly affairs. He also needed to make money to support his family, and he also hoped to get more people's attention and recognition.
Lu Chen's proposal was very beneficial to him. If he did not agree, it would be like being kicked in the head by a donkey!
Out of a trace of the reserved nature of a scholar, he thought for a moment, then nodded hard and said: "I'm very willing, thank you!"
Lu Chen said with a smile: "That's good. I'll arrange the time here. I'll ask someone from the company to contact you."
After leaving his contact information, Meng Shaotang said goodbye to Lu Chen. He was in a hurry to go back and write a film review article.
Lu Chen watched the other person's figure disappear into the elevator, deep in thought.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Fei 'er walked over and looked curiously at the elevator. "Who was that just now?"
"Meng Shaotang, Teacher Meng …"
Lu Chen briefly explained the other person's identity to her and also told her his plans.
Chen Fei 'er pursed her lips and smiled. "You have a lot of wicked ideas!"
She asked again, "Then which TV station are you going to let do this show? Beijing TV or Zhejiang TV? "
Lu Chen pretended to be dissatisfied. "Can't it be Central TV?"
Chen Fei 'er chuckled. "Do you think Central TV is owned by your family?"
Lu Chen touched his chin. "That makes sense …"
Although the two were joking, it was really practical. Because through the talent show "The Eight Storms Meet in Beijing", Chen Fei Media, or rather, Lu Chen, had established a good cooperative relationship with Central TV.
As long as he was willing to use his connections, Central TV Department 2 would not have too big of an obstacle.
But this matter was not important. For Lu Chen, the most important thing was the official screening of "The Sword of Mount Hua" on National Day.
Although the premiere was very well received, the final fate of a movie, which was decided by hundreds of millions of ordinary people, was the box office result.
If the box office of "The Smiling, Proud, and Proud" was not good, what was the point of talking to Meng Shaotang on TV?
The premiere was over, but the journey of "The Smiling, Proud, and Proud" had just begun.
The day after tomorrow was October 1st.
