Chapter 19 This is a difficult choice
This year, the winter vacation exams for the Beijing Film Academy's directing department started quite early and were completed in mid-December.

As expected, Lin Yicheng passed the exam successfully.

Then I received a call from Zong Shuai.

Can't stop it!

From the time Lin Yicheng became famous through his novels to the present, he has never participated in any TV programs or accepted any media interviews.

Even at the Shaanxi Provincial TV station where Lao Lin worked, a reporter only mentioned in a report that Lin Yicheng's novels were best-sellers and had attracted a lot of attention from readers.

Firstly, Lin Yicheng was in high school at the time, and Mr. Lin was afraid that too much media exposure would affect his son's studies. Secondly, he wanted to avoid suspicion and not give people a reason to talk.

Later, the press conference of "Hello, Old Times" was only briefly reported on the Shaanxi Provincial Film and Television Channel. The entire report was less than 30 seconds, and only photos of Lin Yicheng's press conference were broadcast.

Therefore, capturing Lin Yicheng's first time became the goal of many TV stations and media.

Looking at the list of invited media handed over by Zong Shuai, Lin Yicheng felt overwhelmed.

There are just too many!
If I take all of these, I won't have to do anything for the next one or two months, and it may not be enough.

"No, there are too many. Brother Zong, please help to sort them out and reject the unnecessary ones."

"This has already been screened. I have already turned down those tabloids and magazines."

Zong Shuai said unhappily that Lin Yicheng could hide but he couldn't, and he was feeling both pain and happiness these days.

The more popular Lin Yicheng becomes, the more he earns, and the more he earns as an agent.

However, some of these media are influential and cannot be refused, and some are acquaintances and it is difficult to refuse.

In order to help Lin Yicheng delay until now, his lips are almost worn out and a few hairs have turned white.

After thinking for a while, Lin Yicheng said:
"How about this, the TV station should first focus on the first-tier celebrities who are likely to buy the drama, so that they can get to know each other first. As for the rest, you can tell them not to worry, and we can take our time later."

"As for the interviews with newspapers and magazines, I will pick a few influential ones first. As for the others, I will hold a press conference early next year and invite them all to come for interviews."

Zong Shuai understood what was going on as soon as he heard it. This so-called press conference would become a promotional conference for "Hello, Old Times".

"What about these TV stations? Which one should we go to first?" asked Zong Shuai.

"Damn it, it's still not popular enough." Lin Yicheng cursed.

"You're not famous yet?" Zong Shuai was shocked. How could he become famous? Go live on Mars?
"Yes, if CCTV invites me, I will give it my first time. It's not easy to do it now."

Marshal Zong understood. Indeed, if they accepted CCTV's programs first, other TV stations would have a hard time saying anything, after all, it was the Big Brother.

But now that the big brother is not here, the other little brothers are unwilling to submit to each other, so it is difficult to arrange the seating order.

"Beijing TV Station, I have to make a living under their noses, I can't offend them. Hunan TV Station may buy my drama, they are the sponsor. Shaanxi TV Station, that's my hometown, my father still works there..."

Rubbing his forehead, thinking over and over again, Lin Yicheng made a decision.

"Let's go to Beijing TV first. This TV station is a little narrow-minded. I just hang out on their turf. If I offend them, I'm afraid they will make things difficult for me."

There was no way. Lin Yicheng was too impressed by the Beijing TV station. After a few years, the little black fat man would also be impressed by them.

"Tell the Hunan Provincial TV Station that although I won't be visiting them for the first time, I may visit them twice later. The specific time will be determined later. Give them a hint that if they buy the drama, it will definitely be twice."

"As for the Shaanxi Provincial TV Station, I'll talk to my dad privately later."

"As for print media, I'll do an exclusive interview with Beijing Youth Daily. This is my aunt's unit and a close friend. As for magazines, just pick one that suits your taste."

"On the Internet, NetEase will do. The other companies can just reprint it and let them come to the press conference when the time comes."

"Okay, let's arrange it this way for now. I'll make the call." Zong Shuai agreed.

It is impossible to be fair and just about everything in this kind of situation. It is best to cut the Gordian knot quickly. If you drag it out for too long, people may end up being unhappy.

"Hey, that's not right. Why didn't CCTV contact me? What about the program "Dialogue"? Didn't they invite Han Han? Do they look down on me or what?" Lin Yicheng thought of something and asked aloud.

"If you drop out of Beijing Film Academy today, they will come to find you the next day."

Zong Shuai's words hit the nail on the head.

That's right, when Han Han dropped out of school, there was a big uproar, and Dialogue wanted to find him to set a target and stir up controversy. This can be seen from the people who arranged to ask questions.

It was also Han Han’s fault that he was too young and inexperienced at the time, and he went there as soon as he heard the name of CCTV.

Smile when you go and say MMP when you leave.

……

On Saturday, Lin Yicheng and Zong Shuai, who had their looks specially done by a makeup artist, came to the Beijing TV Station.

I followed the staff to the area where the "Around Us" program was located and waited in a lounge in the backstage.

In fact, this program focuses on caring about the people's livelihood and the lives of the people in Beijing, which has little to do with Lin Yicheng's business.

But Beijing TV currently only has this one interview and dialogue column, and if you really have to rely on it, it is not too far off the topic.

After all, Lin Yicheng is a student from the capital, studying and living here.

After looking through the general script, Lin Yicheng looked up.

“Do you know this host?”

"I don't quite understand, but they are very sincere and won't ask any difficult questions." Zong Shuai was very clear about Lin Yicheng's concerns.

Although Lin Yicheng has not had any black spots since he became famous.

But if you come across the kind of host who is always finding faults in everything, they will find flaws even if there are none, and then make some minor edits in the later stage, such as reversing the order of some words.

To exaggerate a little, if you recite "Quiet Night Thoughts" on stage, when you turn around and watch TV, he can edit a "Ode to the Goose" for you.

Not long after receiving the reminder from the staff, Lin Yicheng stepped into the recording studio.

The first impression host Li Ran had when he saw Lin Yicheng was that he was handsome, stylish and clean.

She wore casual clothes on the outside, a turtleneck sweater on the inside, paired with jeans and sneakers, her slender and well-proportioned figure was clearly visible.

The semi-long hair is slicked with mousse and goes back, messy but not messy. The sideburns on both sides are shaved off, which sets off the face shape and makes him look particularly handsome.

"Hello, Lin Yicheng." Li Ran greeted first.

"Hello, host."

After completing the opening remarks, Lin Yicheng was briefly introduced.

Li Ran began to ask questions.

"You currently have many identities, writer, singer, director, actor, how do you view these identities?"

This question is actually very general, and whether you can answer it well is the key.

After thinking for a while, Lin Yicheng said, "Actually, this is first a matter of order, and then a variety of coincidences and accidents have led to my multiple identities today."

Lin Yicheng passed on a message.

Li Ran obviously caught on, and asked with some surprise: "Can you tell me more about it? I believe the audience in front of the TV are also quite curious."

　I still ask for monthly tickets, recommendations and collections. Your little support will be my greatest motivation.
