I became popular after participating in a high-IQ variety show

Lu Yan returned home to catch up on sleep for a while, and at seven o'clock in the evening, he went out to the bar.

Although it is not yet business hours, there are already customers at this point.

Lu Yan walked through the front hall of the bar and went to the rest room at the back to find Cheng Haoxuan.

Cheng Haoxuan was reclined on the sofa playing with his mobile phone, he didn't know what he was looking at, and smiled obscenely.

There was a big cake on the low table in front of him, and several mouthfuls were dug irregularly.

Lu Yan stood in front of him and said hello, "Boss Cheng."

Hearing the sound, Cheng Haoxuan raised his head, looked at him as if he was looking at the walking RMB, then put his arms around his shoulders and let him sit on the sofa, and said with a smile: "Come, come, big star, come and eat cake."

"Big star?" Lu Yan suspected that Cheng Haoxuan was thinking about him.

Cheng Haoxuan gave him a meaningful look, "Aren't you a big star with your traffic?"

Lu Yan snorted softly, ignoring his cynicism.

He glanced at the cake that had been dug up like a dog gnawed it, and slightly raised his eyebrows, "Boss Cheng uses such a crappy cake for entertaining people, isn't it a bit too picky?"

Hearing what he said, Cheng Haoxuan didn't feel embarrassed at all, and was even a little proud, "What do you know, eating a cake with the boss is the highest honor this bar gives its employees."

Lu Yan broke away from his hand on his shoulder, "You should keep this honor for yourself."

Cheng Haoxuan came over to embrace him cheekily again, "Don't, RMB...ah no, Lu Yan, I really bought this cake just for you. Let me tell you, this cake is very expensive. It cost me more than 400 yuan. Usually I buy it for you. I can’t bear to buy it for myself.”

Lu Yan took another look at the dug up cake that was missing a piece, and frowned in distaste, "Why did the cake specially bought for me turn out like this? Don't tell me it's cake art."

"Guess right!" Cheng Haoxuan snapped his fingers, "This is art! As expected of a big star, you can tell it at a glance!"

Lu Yan: "..."

Lu Yan didn't speak, just looked at him quietly.

Cheng Haoxuan gradually stopped laughing, coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment, and patted him on the shoulder, "You are not humorous at all, it doesn't matter what the cake looks like, what matters is my heart!"

"Do you know why I bought you a cake?"

"I don't know." Lu Yan paused for a moment, then added blankly, "I don't really want to know."

"Because you will lead me from poverty to well-off life!" Cheng Haoxuan didn't seem to hear the second part of his sentence, and stood up excitedly, slapping his thigh, "In just one week, you made two hot searches in a row. They all occupy the headlines, and you are scolded for being out of the circle, and people like my dad who never pay attention to the entertainment circle know you!"

"A 'popular top streamer' like you, singing in my bar now, I just need to hang up your signboard, so I don't need to advertise. The word Lu Yan is the guarantee of customer flow!"

Lu Yan: "..."

Cheng Haoxuan excitedly planned the future for him, "Let me tell you, I have already figured out how to market. I will create an account on Douyin again, take a video of your singing and post it, buy a promotion, and only spend 50 yuan Qian Zan can stay high on the hot search list, do you believe it?"

"I've already thought about the copywriting, so I'll imitate the blogger who posted your photo today, and say this: I ran into a big star in a bar, this seems to be the one who was banned in the live broadcast room two days ago? How did you get reduced to the point of selling singing?"

"what do you think?"

Lu Yan: "..."

Lu Yan looked at Cheng Haoxuan's eyes full of excitement, and slowly raised the corners of his lips, "Okay."

Cheng Haoxuan: "?"

Cheng Haoxuan was stunned, "Ah? You, are you serious?"

Lu Yan nodded, "Really."

For some reason, Cheng Haoxuan always felt that Lu Yan's smile was scary, he swallowed his saliva, and said dryly: "I, I was joking, I was just talking, just say it."

Lu Yan tilted his head, a little strange, "What are you afraid of? What I said is true, I think your plan is very good, I am very satisfied."

Cheng Haoxuan: "???"

Cheng Haoxuan seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Lu Yan's shoulders with both hands, and shook him vigorously like Erkang shook Ziwei, trying to wake him up, "Lu Yan! You must cheer up!"

"Let me tell you, the gossips on the Internet are all because they don't understand. Don't think of suicide just because you care about those nonsense words!"

"Are you in good spirits now? If you have any questions, please tell me in time, and I will find you the best psychiatrist!"

"Are you sick? Who said I wanted to commit suicide?" Lu Yan waved Cheng Haoxuan's hand away, "Also, I'm very sane, and you seem to be mentally abnormal."

Cheng Haoxuan looked at him carefully, "Really? Are you really okay?"

Lu Yan smiled angrily, "What's my problem?"

Cheng Haoxuan breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay if there's no problem. I just told you that I wanted to make a video of you singing, just to make a joke with you, but instead of scolding me, you said yes, which scared me a lot. I thought you had a mental problem after experiencing serious cyber violence."

Lu Yan didn't quite understand Cheng Haoxuan's bad taste, "You all know that I was bullied by the Internet and still make such jokes, what if I really have a mental problem?"

Cheng Haoxuan rubbed his nose, "So I won't dare next time."

Lu Yan was speechless.

As a normal person, he doesn't quite understand his boss's mentally handicapped behavior of first committing a crime and then admitting his mistake.

Cheng Haoxuan was afraid that he would not believe him, so he raised his hand to promise, "I will never take a picture of you and put it on the Internet. Believe me, no matter how short of money I am, I will never do such immoral things, let alone I am not short of money."

"It's okay, let's put it on." Lu Yan slightly curled his lips, and said, "Just do as you said just now, take a video of my singing and put it on the Internet. It's best to post it on Douyin Weibo or other websites with a lot of traffic. once."

"Just write the copy like that, or it can be a little more eccentric, anyway, whatever the heat is."

Cheng Haoxuan was shocked, "Are you serious?"

"of course."

Cheng Haoxuan originally wondered if Lu Yan's spirit was really out of order, or he was so angry that he said irony, but seeing the calmness and confidence in the other party's eyes, he felt that Lu Yan was not joking.

Not only was he not kidding, it was as if... Putting the video of him singing in a bar online with a yin and yang copywriting was not hurting him, but benefiting him.

But... why?

Cheng Haoxuan was puzzled, so he asked, "Why? Aren't you afraid of being scolded worse?"

Of course Lu Yan was not afraid, he was afraid that he would not be scolded badly enough.

He said to Cheng Haoxuan: "Don't be afraid, but why don't you ask, just do it if you are told to do it, anyway, it will benefit you and not harm you at all."

Cheng Haoxuan nodded blankly, expressing that he didn't quite understand the thinking of people in their entertainment industry.

Lu Yan glanced at the time, "The singing starts at eight o'clock, I'll go get ready, remember to take a video and post it online."

Cheng Haoxuan looked at Lu Yan's leaving back, and suddenly realized that something was wrong.

No, he is the boss, why should he be ordered to do so as a matter of course.

However, although Cheng Haoxuan was slightly dissatisfied with Lu Yan's attitude, he still made a video according to Lu Yan's instructions.

At eight o'clock, Lu Yan took the stage with his guitar in his arms and began to sing the first song, and he gained the attention of the audience.

Part of the reason why customers paid attention to him was that Lu Yan remained high on the hot searches, but the bar was dimly lit, and many people couldn't see Lu Yan's face clearly, so more people paid attention to him because of his songs.

Lu Yan hadn't sung much in the original world, and he didn't know what level he was when he sang, but this body sang really well, no wonder he was able to get the C position in the talent show variety show back then.

After a song was sung, some customers applauded, and a bold girl came up with a wine glass to invite him to drink.

Cheng Haoxuan, who was preparing to record the video, also came back to his senses at the same time, and found that he was so fascinated by Lu Yan just now that he forgot to press the record button.

Lu Yan took a break and was about to sing the second song. Before he started singing, he gave Cheng Haoxuan a look at Cheng Haoxuan who was holding a mobile phone in the corner.

Cheng Haoxuan received it, and without distraction, started to record.

At the same time, a nanny car slowly drove out of the film and television city.

Jin Zhuofeng had just finished filming a movie.

Standing in his position in the entertainment industry, he no longer has to worry about traffic and word-of-mouth issues. The filming is entirely to satisfy his personal preferences, so after the movie ended, he began to give himself a vacation, and he has not accepted new ones. script.

The last few times I have come to the film and television city are for guest appearances. Some directors or producers have a good relationship with him, and it is difficult for him to refuse when they ask him to be a guest appearance.

Right now, he just cameo-starred in a director's movie with a lot of friendship, and is going home to rest.

Jin Zhuofeng crossed his legs, closed his eyes and rested his mind in the car in a relaxed posture, while the manager Yi Menghua next to him was reading to him the script he received recently.

"Didn't you say that you don't want to wear ancient costumes anymore, so I deleted all the scripts with historical backgrounds for you, leaving two modern ones, one is a police film and the other is a science fiction film. You see Which one is more interesting?"

Jin Zhuofeng slowly opened his eyes, "What do you think?"

Yi Menghua said without hesitation: "The cops and bandits. Our country has always been criticized for making sci-fi films. If the filming is not good, even the director and the actors will be scolded. It's too bad. I don't recommend it."

Jin Zhuofeng nodded, "Well, I'm just asking you what you think, I'm not interested in either, you can push it."

Yi Menghua: "..."

Yi Menghua got used to the bad taste of her own film star, quickly rejected two scripts, and then opened another electronic file with a blank expression.

"There is also a variety show, and an invitation has also been sent. I watched it, and I recommend you to go."

Jin Zhuofeng looked at her puzzled, "Variety show?"

Yi Menghua directly showed him the program plan, "The name is "Genius with High IQ", and it is the first science competition program in China. The online response is very high, and the reviews are all positive."

Jin Zhuofeng took a general look, and then handed the tablet back, "Why do you invite me, an entertainment star, to this kind of variety show?"

"Although there are many voices on the Internet, in order to ensure the ratings of the program, it is still necessary to invite someone with their own traffic."

Jin Zhuofeng twitched the corner of his mouth, "I don't want to be scolded."

"That's why I asked you to go." Yi Menghua said: "There are quite a few people in the entertainment industry who can guarantee traffic, but there are not many people with a reputation like you."

"Among the film kings and queens who have a very high reputation and status and are not easily scolded, the education can keep up with the judges of the show. Looking at the entire entertainment industry, you are the only one."

Jin Zhuofeng raised his eyebrows, "Thank you for the compliment, I am very honored."

Yi Menghua could see that he was not interested, and continued to persuade like an old lady: "I really strongly recommend you to participate in this variety show. You know, I haven't accepted a variety show for you for many years, because with your current state status, to participate in a variety show is to condescend to the gods."

"But this variety show is different. It is a science competition variety show. It has a very high status in the eyes of the audience. If you can be a judge, I tell you that from now on you will be a god in the entertainment industry."

Jin Zhuofeng yawned and nodded perfunctorily, "Yes, I see."

Yi Menghua: "..."

Yi Menghua was pissed off by his attitude, but she also knew that she couldn't interfere with his decision, so she could only put the tablet back into the bag with a lot of noise.

Jin Zhuofeng closed his eyes again, and suddenly there was an extremely loud sound from the passenger seat, as if someone was singing, and the background sound was very noisy.

It was the assistant who was watching the short video and forgot to turn off the sound.

Jin Zhuofeng opened his eyes because of the noise, and the assistant was so frightened that he dropped his phone.

The phone fell into the gap of the car seat, and the more anxious the assistant was, the more he couldn't get it out, and the whole car was filled with the sound of short videos.

At the end of the short video, someone yelled 'Damn Lu Yan', and then started playing it repeatedly.

Jin Zhuofeng frowned upon hearing the sound, and asked his assistant, "What are you looking at?"

"Ah? Just, casually scroll through short videos."

"What is the content of the short video?"

"Content...Content..." After a lot of effort, the assistant finally pulled out the phone, quickly clicked pause, and the car instantly returned to silence.

The assistant secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to answer Jin Zhuofeng's question: "The content is just... a very hard-to-describe artist singing in a bar, it's nothing."

Jin Zhuofeng frowned even tighter, "Is that artist called Lu Yan?"

"Yes."

Jin Zhuofeng asked again: "Why do you think he can't say anything?"

"Just..." The assistant thought for a while, and really wanted to directly scold his dissatisfaction with this artist, but he also felt that he should pay attention to his words in front of his boss, so he thought about it and said, "That's right, his character is very poor. Bullying teammates during the draft. And then not being very self-aware.”

"Brother Jin, do you know the variety show "Genius with High IQ", right? Sister Ganghua told you about it. It's a science show. He, a person who didn't graduate from junior high school, shamelessly participated in the audition for the popularity. It's still there It’s on the hot search.”

Hearing this, Jin Zhuofeng took out his mobile phone and took a look, and sure enough, the third hot search was listed.

#Lu Yanappeared at the audition site of "High IQ Genius"#

There is also Article Ten.

#Star to be popular in the end there is no limit to how much#

This trending search is based on the connotation that Lu Yan went to a variety show for the sake of being popular despite knowing nothing.

From the words of the assistant and the hot search content, Jin Zhuofeng extracted a piece of information.

Lu Yan is going to participate in "Genius with High IQ".

Although he only participated in the audition, Jin Zhuofeng had an inexplicable premonition.

Lu Yan will definitely stand at the recording site of the show.

He suddenly became interested.

Lu Yan's controlled expression on the set, I don't know if he will see it at the recording scene of "Genius with High IQ"?

He was so curious about how Lu Yan, who only had a junior high school education, would perform in this kind of science competition program.

Jin Zhuofeng said to Yi Menghua: "I think your analysis just now makes sense. Tell that talented program group that I will be a judge."

Yi Menghua: "?"

The change of mind became caught off guard, and she was still a little dazed.

Compared with Lu Yan's performance in the show, Jin Zhuofeng has one more curious thing now.

He said to the driver: "I want to drink a little bit, so I'll go find a bar and stop. Well... let's go to the one in Xiao Shen's short video just now."

He was really curious about what it was like to sing in a small bar when the C position in the variety show was drafted back then.
