Chapter 23: Go on the show and let the audience sing for me
Lin Yicheng first sang a song called "Broken Bridge and Remaining Snow", which is the most popular song in the south, especially in the Jiangnan area.

It was live singing, which Lin Yicheng specifically mentioned to the program team.

Unless there is no other choice, Lin Yicheng will choose to sing live whenever he appears on stage.

He doesn't want to be caught lip-syncing on the Internet one day and have it become an indelible black history.

After singing a song, he bowed to say goodbye.

While waiting for the stage to be set up, change your costumes.

The outfit just now was a slightly more formal casual outfit, which matched the mood of the song.

Now he is wearing a sequined suit and the next song he is going to sing is "Fairy Tale".

These are the costumes he brought with him, three sets in total, corresponding to the two songs and the subsequent interview.

Sure enough, his preparation was not in vain. In his opinion, the costumes provided by the program team were too low-end and would seriously lower his appearance and temperament.

After a while, Lin Yicheng came on stage again and said, "Next, I will perform "Fairy Tale" for everyone."

The cheers grew louder.

After the audience quieted down again, Lin Yicheng sat alone at the piano and began to play the prelude.

The stage darkened and a beam of light shone on Lin Yicheng. Under the reflection of the sequined suit, Lin Yicheng seemed to be glowing, like a star in the dark night.

As Lin Yicheng played and sang by himself, the audience fell silent. When the chorus began, Lin Yicheng stood up and left the piano.

He wants to add some show effects.

"I want to become..."

Lin Yicheng started singing and extended the microphone to the audience.

At first only a small number of people sang along, but after a few sentences, the vast majority of people sang along in unison.

"Open your hands"

"Turning into wings to protect you"

……

Lin Yicheng held the microphone in one hand and placed the other hand to his ear, making Iverson's classic listening posture, while walking left and right, but not too close to the audience.

By the way, I noticed that the middle-aged ladies who started shouting excitedly were also fooling around, but their lip movements were seriously wrong.

After the audience finished singing, Lin Yicheng applauded them. This was a great move, not to mention the audience. Even the host and backstage staff were stunned.

Something seems wrong?
After returning to the backstage and changing into casual clothes, I came to the last segment, the guest interview.

Lin Yicheng was very familiar with this process. He basically just had to repeat what he had said in the "Around Us" column before.

There are also differences. For example, he said he likes to eat Linwu duck from Hunan Province and Hunan embroidery.

If you check the information in advance, you won’t make mistakes.

Finally, I would promote the TV series, talk about the general content, the cast, welcome everyone to watch, etc.

I sang and played the piano before, and even made dumplings with great effort, all for this little bit of vinegar.

……

As usual, after the program was recorded, he exchanged contact information with the host Wang Han, and then said goodbye and left.

This episode will be aired on the 25th, which is exactly the day before "Hello, Old Times".

……

He rushed back to Beijing without stopping, met up with Huang Shengyi who had come from Hong Kong Island, and also called senior sister Yao Di to hold a press conference together.

Let's just call it a press conference. When reporters asked questions, Lin Yicheng tried his best to talk about the TV series.

Asked about the inspiration for writing songs. It was because there was no suitable song for "Hello, Old Times" this time, so I had no choice but to write it myself.

Asked if there are plans for the next album. It depends on the situation. If the situation of "Hello, Old Times" continues, I will continue to write more songs.

Asked what I think of "Beilin Nanzhou". Just like what someone said in "Hello, Old Times", blah blah.

……

The reporters are going crazy. How can everything be related to "Hello, Old Times"? Is it really that outrageous?
After the reporters left with double the travel expenses, Lin Yicheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. The only thing left was "Happy Camp", and he wouldn't have to worry about promoting "Hello, Old Times" anymore.

After all, it is his directorial debut and the cornerstone of his career in the film and television industry. No matter how solid it is, it cannot be excessive. Only in this way can he climb higher.

Looking at the two senior sisters who were pretending to be nice, Lin Yicheng suddenly realized that he had overlooked a problem.

Is there an idiom for "people of the same league" in the dictionary? Why did I call my senior sister Yao Di here in a moment of confusion?

Lin Yicheng took a few steps back and was about to move away when he was unexpectedly entangled by the agent named Fei.

The main reason is that Lin Yicheng is so popular that even the son of his female agent named Fei likes to listen to his songs!
Coupled with the huge crowds of media today, seeing this momentum, the female agent named Fei was particularly low-key and humble in front of Lin Yicheng today.

After signing the CD she handed to me, I finally got rid of her.

Then I sent text messages to the two senior students separately, and left first on the pretext that I was afraid of being blocked.

After the wrap party, this was the first time Lin Yicheng met Senior Huang, and there was inevitably some unfamiliarity between the two.

In addition, he refused to help promote "Kung Fu" at that time, which added a bit of alienation.

I guess that relationship is coming to an end.

At least in Lin Yicheng's heart, it has come to an end.

……

In the following period of time, Lin Yicheng almost became a frequent flyer, traveling between Shanghai, Zhejiang Province, Jiangsu Province...

I visited several first-tier TV stations, got to know them, and participated in several programs.

Lin Yicheng was almost at a loss for words after hearing the same old thing over and over again.

But I couldn't not go, I had already promised them. And now is the peak period of the TV station, if I want to sell the drama or promote it in the future, I can't do without them.

Having good relations with them may not necessarily bring any benefits, but if you offend them, you will definitely suffer the consequences, and being banned is considered a good thing.

It's still considered a bit of conscience if they say a few insults to you overtly or covertly on the show, but they will go further and make up some unfounded things to smear and slander you. Given that most audiences now regard TV stations as their gospel, no star can stand it.

Lin Yicheng is a cautious person and pays great attention to details.

He was neither servile nor overbearing to the TV station leaders, but respectful, and humble and polite to the ordinary staff, but treated them equally.

Although he is not praised by everyone, everyone has a good impression of him.

The young man was polite and well-mannered, without any of the arrogance that came with his fame.

This is enough.

……

On January 1, Lin Yicheng and two senior schoolmates came to Star City to participate in "Happy Camp".

Now "Happy Camp" has only three hosts: He, Li and Xie.

To be honest, the games in it are very childish and Lin Yicheng is a little uncomfortable with them.

Slide down the slide, step on balloons, jump on the trampoline...

I think these are pretty much what kids in kindergarten play with, right?
So after hinting to He Jiong, he mainly played a supporting role and a supporting role.

He was responsible for cheering people on, helping to arrange props, giving advice and acting as a military strategist.

The two senior students seemed to be having a lot of fun. Well, the term "idol burden" is not popular nowadays. All the guests who come to "Happy Camp" play like this, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with it.

After playing the game, it was Lin Yicheng's turn to perform. The program team naturally couldn't let go of this hottest star at the moment.

Then Lin Yicheng, who played a supporting role in the beginning, sang three songs in the middle and late stages, and he worked very hard.

It will not give the TV station the impression that it does not value the program, nor will it give the audience the impression that it is just doing it perfunctorily.

……

On that day, Lin Yicheng took a flight directly from Xingcheng back to Chang'an. After politely rejecting the vague invitations of several flight attendants, he got off the plane and met Lao Lin who came to pick him up.

After taking his son's luggage, Lao Lin looked him up and down carefully and said, "He's a little thinner."

"I've been busy lately and haven't been exercising much."

"Go home and have your mom make you something delicious. Eat up the weight you lost and gain a few more pounds."

"Don't be fat, image is the most important."

"Virtue."

The father and son talked along the way, and Lin Yicheng told them about his situation during this period one by one.

Although they often talk on the phone, as parents, they always want to see and hear with their own eyes and ears to feel at ease, and they also have to see if they can fill in the gaps for their children.
