Light Novel Pub

Chapter 219: A powerful voice

"Jump Up" officially announced on August 5th that it will be published as a physical book by Jiangyin Publishing House.

This was already a novel that had received a lot of attention before, and the news of its physical publication attracted even more attention.

Of course, this incident did not arouse many people's doubts like when Yemai.com first announced it. There were just a few people who made a few sarcastic remarks about the fact that celebrities' books would be published by publishing houses.

For the general public, this isn't a big deal. Physical publishing simply means the book "Jump Up" is being released physically. In the minds of most people, this is actually quite normal, and it would be surprising if it weren't published.

Chen Siqi and Xu Mingyue would meet at Jiangyin Publishing House almost every day to hold meetings, review manuscripts, and discuss specific issues such as the editing and typesetting of the book.

Lu Yanhe didn't participate much.

Because he is about to participate in the Beijing-Taiwan evening party, he has to attend the rehearsal tonight, and it will officially start tomorrow night. It will be a live broadcast, and there will be no way to remedy any mistakes. Lu Yanhe has to sing someone else's song this time, and he is under a lot of pressure.

They set out for rehearsal in the evening. Since Chen Ziyan had not found a suitable assistant for him yet, she personally brought a driver to drive him there.

This made Lu Yanhe a little surprised and even embarrassed.

"Sister Zi Yan, I can go there by myself."

"Not tonight. We have to support you. There are so many artists coming tonight. If you go alone, people will think you're not welcome by the company."

"Didn't you say before that before I really became famous, I could run the show on my own, even without an assistant?"

"But we can't let you walk over there alone and make a fool of yourself." Chen Ziyan didn't say anything. She was still worried about Lu Yanhe going to Beijing and Taiwan alone. Director Li's attitude towards Lu Yanhe forced Chen Ziyan to be more careful and alert.

Seeing that Chen Ziyan insisted, Lu Yanhe didn't know what to say anymore, as he seemed to be ungrateful.

He nodded, thinking that although he was not as thoughtful as Chen Siqi, he still had some sense and was trying hard to learn the ways of the world.

-

The Jingtai building is very big, and this is Lu Yanhe’s first time here.

When he got to the door, he was shocked to see a large crowd of people gathered at the driveway. They all looked like fans who came to chase their idol.

They were all trying very hard to identify whether there were their favorite celebrities in every passing car.

Lu Yanhe suddenly heard someone shouting his name in a tone that seemed to be losing control.

The emotions are particularly intense.

Lu Yanhe couldn't help but turn his head in surprise, and saw a girl in the crowd shouting his name in his direction with a heart-wrenching voice.

This scene inexplicably popped into his memory.

When they arrived at the door, Lu Yanhe prepared to get off the car.

There were cameras at the door, as well as staff from Beijing and Taiwan, with many people stacked together. It was a completely different situation from when I went to the Northern Lights Video to record "Xiao Ge Ju Zhong Hui".

Chen Ziyan accompanied Lu Yanhe out of the car.

As soon as he got out of the car, he heard torrents of shouts like "Lu Yanhe", "I love you", and "Husband, I love you" coming from the direction he had just come from.

Lu Yanhe was startled.

He is no longer the unknown artist who has never seen the world, but Lu Yanhe rarely encounters such a grand occasion, which makes him surprised.

Chen Ziyan: "Don't stay here, or they'll keep yelling. Say hello to them and go in quickly. There are cameras filming us."

She whispered in Lu Yanhe's ear.

Lu Yanhe immediately did as Chen Ziyan said, which immediately attracted an even more exaggerated shout. He and Chen Ziyan hurried into the building.

Someone came to pick them up.

As they walked forward, cameras were following them.

The people who came to pick them up greeted them with a smile and exchanged pleasantries.

Lu Yanhe and Chen Ziyan chatted politely for a while.

Chen Ziyan asked: "When are we going to rehearse later?"

The contact person said, "According to the schedule, it's around 8pm, which is still an hour and a half away. We've prepared lunch boxes for you, which will be delivered to your lounge shortly."

"Okay." Chen Ziyan smiled slightly, "Thank you, you've worked hard."

We arrived at a long corridor and as soon as we entered, we saw a nameplate on each room.

Lu Yanhe's nameplate was in the middle room, but the people next to him surprised him because they were Song Linxin and Cheng Hai.

Lu Yanhe glanced at the room next to Song Linxin, then looked away and went straight into his lounge, which was also his dressing room.

Jingtai is indeed a big stage with ample space. The lounge is also very generous, with one room prepared for each person, so there is no need to squeeze into a lounge with several other people like last time.

After Chen Ziyan accompanied Lu Yanhe into the lounge, she said, "Then you can rest in the lounge for a while. I'll go say hello to some acquaintances in Beijing and Taiwan. If anyone wants to come in, remember to check their work badges. If there are any work plans that haven't been reported in advance, wait for my confirmation before proceeding."

Chen Ziyan was giving Lu Yanhe instructions like an old mother.

Lu Yanhe nodded and agreed.

-

When Chen Ziyan came out of Lu Yanhe's room, she happened to meet Song Linxin and her group.

Chen Ziyan glanced at them. There were five people in the group, including her agent Zhou Meng, assistants and other team members.

There is strength in numbers.

Chen Ziyan ran into them in the narrow corridor and couldn't pretend not to see them.

Zhou Meng felt guilty, so she took the initiative to greet with a smile and called Zi Yan "Sister".

Chen Ziyan gave her a faint look and nodded, which could be considered a greeting instead of completely ignoring her.

But this attitude has revealed a lot of meaning.

Song Linxin knew Chen Ziyan and knew that she was Lu Yanhe's agent.

As soon as he saw her, Song Linxin couldn't help feeling nervous and uneasy.

Song Linxin was worried that Chen Ziyan would temporarily give up Lu Yanhe for her and criticize her.

In the end, Chen Ziyan said nothing and didn't even look at her.

This made Song Linxin lose her mind for a moment. While she felt relieved, she also felt a slight pain in her heart.

When Song Linxin arrived at the door of her lounge and saw Lu Yanhe's name written on the next room, she was even more surprised.

She stood there for a moment, at a loss as to what to do.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Meng opened the door of the lounge and said, "Come in first."

-

Lu Yanhe had nothing to do in the lounge, so he boredly opened his phone, turned on the live broadcast, and started reading.

He has been so busy recently that even his time for live streaming has become sporadic.

However, despite this, Lu Yanhe still insists on live reading.

The number of fans in Lu Yanhe's live broadcast room has also stabilized at over 10,000 viewers.

This data is exaggerated.

Because most of the time, Lu Yanhe’s live broadcast footage is just a picture.

Even with such a picture, it can still maintain more than 10,000 viewers, which even the live broadcast platform finds incredible.

There's really nothing to see.

After a survey, we found out that many people like to watch the live video of Lu Yanhe reading, while doing homework, catching up on work, or just reading along with him. They feel that having such a live broadcast gives them an invisible sense of companionship, or that it can delay their procrastination to some extent.

The background of the live broadcast screen was somewhat different from where Lu Yanhe usually broadcast live, so when everyone saw that the background of Lu Yanhe's live broadcast environment had changed, they started guessing where Lu Yanhe was. After guessing for a while, someone saw half of a dressing table in Lu Yanhe's screen and asked if Lu Yanhe was in the dressing room. Only then did fans who knew that Lu Yanhe was going to perform at the Beijing Gala talk about this and guessed that Lu Yanhe was waiting for rehearsal.

After a while, dinner was served.

It was delivered by the staff.

It was a boxed lunch, two in total, one for Lu Yanhe and one for Chen Ziyan.

Because Sister Zi Yan was not around, Lu Yanhe started working on his own.

I'm indeed hungry.

The lunch box configuration is pretty good, stir-fried beef, scrambled eggs, sweet and sour pork ribs, stir-fried lettuce, an egg, and a bottle of yogurt.

After Lu Yanhe opened it, his eyes lit up, he unpacked his chopsticks and started eating.

The comments in the barrage room began to surge due to the rare scene of Lu Yanhe eating.

At first, everyone's discussion was quite normal, focusing on how handsome Lu Yanhe's eating movements were or how they felt hungry watching him eat so deliciously.

But about ten minutes later, a group of people suddenly came in from nowhere and mocked Jingtai for providing Lu Yanhe with lunch boxes that were not as good as those provided by other artists.

-

When Helan saw this comment, he was stunned for a moment, mainly because he didn't react to what it meant until he saw someone posted a screenshot in the barrage. He took a look and found that it was a screenshot of a social platform update posted by Chen Ziliang. Chen Ziliang had posted a photo twenty minutes ago. The content in the photo was also a lunch box, but the content of the lunch box was much richer than Lu Yanhe's. The dishes were all packed separately. There were a total of six dishes, plus a soup and a cold dish. He said: Thank you Jingtai for preparing a sumptuous dinner for us during the rehearsal.

Compared with the dinner in Chen Ziliang's photo, Lu Yanhe's lunch box does look rather shabby.

Lu Yanhe was concentrating on eating and had no idea that many people in his comments were starting to speak up for him.

Many of Lu Yanhe's fans went to the official account of Beijing and Taiwan to question them and ask them why they treated the artists differently.

After Lu Yanhe finished eating, he took a look at the comments in the live broadcast room and realized what had happened.

Lu Yanhe's eyes suddenly widened, a little surprised.

After learning that some fans had even gone to the official Jingtai account to cause a stir, he quickly turned off his voice and said, "Uh, I just saw everyone's comments. There's no need to make a fuss over such a small matter. Our lunch boxes are quite delicious. Chen Ziliang is a senior, and his team is larger, so it's normal for them to have more dishes. Don't just stand up for someone who is not happy. There's nothing to be upset about."

Lu Yanhe didn't know whether Chen Ziliang had more dishes because he had a larger team.

In fact, Lu Yanhe knew that even if it was prepared specifically for Chen Ziliang alone, it was normal.

Chen Ziliang is already a popular male singer, so it is normal that he is treated better than Lu Yanhe.

Just like when Lu Yanhe was filming "The Golden Age", the lunch boxes he received were better than those for the extras.

It's the same principle.

Lu Yanhe felt there was no need to question these things.

It’s not like Jingtai didn’t prepare dinner for him, nor was it a very simple dinner. It was actually pretty good.

Lu Yanhe didn't want others to think that he was wronged and help him make trouble.

Suddenly, at this moment, a man opened the door from outside and rushed in.

"Lu Yanhe, what do you mean?!" The person who rushed in was Chen Ziliang, who had appeared in the barrage room of Lu Yanhe's live broadcast room before.

Lu Yanhe was talking to the camera of his mobile phone when he was startled by Chen Ziliang who suddenly rushed in. He almost dropped the phone due to shaking hands.

He turned around and glanced at Chen Ziliang, saying, "Wait a moment, my live broadcast hasn't been turned off yet."

He closed his live broadcast room and didn't even have time to take a look at the barrage of comments that were bound to start flooding in.

After closing the live broadcast room, Lu Yanhe stood up and turned to look at Chen Ziliang.

"What did you say?"

Chen Ziliang pointed at Lu Yanhe, his expression extremely grim. "You did this on purpose, didn't you? I just posted a status showing everyone the lunch box Jingtai prepared for me, and you started livestreaming your meal, deliberately letting everyone see that what I ate was different from what you ate, so that people would scold me? If you have any complaints, just say it directly. What's the point of using such shady tactics? Why are you so wicked?"

Lu Yanhe was furious at Chen Ziliang's words.

"Don't be so slanderous. Who the hell is behind this?" Lu Yanhe angrily questioned Chen Ziliang. "How would I know what you posted? I was livestreaming a book reading, and the staff brought in a lunch box, so I started eating it. Do you have paranoia or something? Do you think I'm picking on you just because I'm eating a lunch box?"

"Those fans of yours are going crazy and cursing at me in my comment section. If I'm not targeting you, who the hell am I targeting?" Chen Ziliang pointed at Lu Yanhe. "Haven't you been jealous of me for a long time? I ridiculed you when you were recording 'Little Song Gathering', and I even stole your duet with Song Linxin this time. Ha, do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"

Lu Yanhe was so angry that he laughed.

"Wow, this is astonishing! I haven't even said anything yet, and you've already said so many things that you feel sorry for me. And you still have the nerve to accuse me? How can you be so shameless?"

Lu Yanhe pointed at the door behind Chen Ziliang that he had opened. Behind him, many people had gathered in the corridor, attracted by Chen Ziliang's roar just now.

Lu Yanhe didn't know who these people were. They were probably just staff members or members of other artist teams.

Lu Yanhe asked forcefully, "Why don't you tell them what you were saying again and see how they react to it? Damn it, how can I still see someone like you acting like a villain with such self-righteousness? I'm speechless." (End of this chapter)
