Li Xuexin looked at the voting situation of the Cantonese Poetry Competition, which had been held from the submission deadline to now.
It has been a while, and the selection of this year's Cantonese competition area can almost be declared over.
Seeing Xiangsi leading the second place by several times in votes, Li Xuexin grinned.
This situation is almost the first time since the poetry competition was held, and it has never happened even in the national competition area.
The poem "Lovesickness" is undoubtedly the most popular poem since the Poetry Conference was held. This young man is really amazing.
However, there is still a difficult problem facing him. The poem "Xiangsi" has become popular in the poetry competition. In previous years, the poetry competition in the Cantonese region did not receive much attention, and the official blog did not have many fans.
However, the appearance of the poem "Xiangsi" in the Cantonese competition area this year unexpectedly broke this barrier. Even people who usually don't pay much attention to the poetry competition know about this poem.
This situation is a great opportunity to promote the Poetry Conference, whether it is the Ministry of Education or the leaders of the Poetry Association.
Or Li Xuexin, neither of them can be let go, but they suffer from the lack of a good publicity plan.
Because it is difficult to maintain this grand occasion by relying solely on poetry. The main reason is that except for Li Changle, they can't write such poetry now, which is very embarrassing.
Li Xuexin has been put under pressure from his superiors, who have asked him to strive to raise the attention paid to the poetry conference to a higher level.
To warm up for the opening of the national competition, Li Xuexin also put pressure on his subordinates to come up with a practical and feasible promotional plan this week.
At least we should let everyone know that the poem "Lovesickness" is from their entry to the Cantonese Poetry Competition.
Li Xuexin was thinking of a plan with a worried look on his face when Wang Weimin suddenly called him.
"What are you up to now, old man? Why did you find another good poem and couldn't help showing it off to me?"
As classmates and good friends for many years, the two men were not polite at all when speaking to each other. Li Xuexin asked Wang Weimin without hiding his annoyance.
"Hey, Lao Li, you look really annoyed. I heard you've been under a lot of pressure lately."
Wang Weimin was a member of the Poetry Conference and the president of Jinling University, so he had numerous insider information sources and was quite knowledgeable. His visit to Li Xuexin was naturally about this matter.
"I know you're still bothering me, but go away, don't bother me anymore. This was supposed to be a good thing, but now it's making me so worried."
"Hey, it's no big deal. I'll give you some advice. Next time, just give me that ten-year-old bottle of Moutai you've got at home. That's a good deal, right?"
When Li Xuexin heard this, he thought, this is someone who is here to cheat people out of drinking, and he immediately became furious.
"Get out of my way. I don't know you, Wang Weimin. You're good at academics, but I've never heard you're good at promotion."
"Hey, hey, hey, don't worry. I really have a way. It will definitely work. Just listen to me. If you're not satisfied after listening to me, I don't want the Moutai anymore."
Wang Weimin said this calmly. When he heard that Li Xuexin was under pressure from above, he became interested. This kind of official promotion opportunity, if handled well, could greatly increase his daughter's popularity.
Their daughter has been in the entertainment industry for three years, but she and her husband have ignored her. They were not even aware that she was being bullied, and they didn't pay any attention. They are indeed incompetent parents.
This time he had finally reconciled with his daughter, so he decided to go with the flow. It was a win-win situation, and there was no harm in helping Wang Siyi. Wang Weimin had already made up his mind.
"What can you do? If you can come up with a practical solution, I can give you a whole bottle of Moutai, not just ten years old, but twenty years old."
Li Xuexin asked Wang Weimin suspiciously, he had been troubled by this matter for several days.
I wasn't feeling well, and the people below me weren't feeling well either. We'd been brainstorming these past few days, but the final results weren't ideal.
"Hey, listen carefully. Actually, the promotion of poetry doesn't have to rely solely on ancient poetry. You can try a different approach, repackaging the poetry and replacing it with something young people like right now."
"You're talking nonsense. If poetry doesn't rely on poetry to promote itself, how can you let everyone know about the poetry you're promoting?"
Li Xuexin rolled his eyes and replied impatiently.
"Hey, Li Xuexin, you really seem to be getting more and more lively as you get older. Didn't I tell you to package poetry and promote it as something that young people would like? Young people are very curious about strange things and have a strong ability to accept them."
"So what do you say?"
Li Xuexin pondered for a moment and felt that what Wang Weimin said made sense.
"Listen, if you change the angle and turn the poetry into a pop song, and then have a popular star that young people like sing it, wouldn't that increase fame?"
"Then you could also specifically explain that this song is a promotional song for the Poetry Conference. As long as the song is good, wouldn't it boost publicity?"
Wang Weimin chuckled on the other end of the phone, thinking that Li Xuexin was definitely going to fall into his trap today, and he would do it willingly.
"That's a good idea, but it's not certain to work. Putting aside whether it will succeed, even the promotional song is a real hurdle for us. We can't find a songwriter who can write a song that's guaranteed to be a hit."
Li Xuexin nodded at Wang Weimin's plan. It was a good idea, but it was also quite difficult. At least the problem with the lyricist and composer was just there, and they couldn't solve it at the moment.
"Don't worry, I can tell you this because I'm confident. I've already found someone for you, and you know this person."
Wang Weimin laughed, then said something to Li Xuexin cheerfully.
"Who? I don't remember knowing anyone in the music industry."
"Do you remember the young man who won first place in the Cantonese region and wrote the song 'Lovesickness'? Go find him and ask him to write a song for you."
Wang Weimin smiled secretly in his heart, Li Xuexin had already stepped into his trap step by step.
"Him? He can actually write lyrics and compose music?"
"Of course I will. This young man is more talented than you can imagine. You are lucky to have met him. He wrote a song called Red Bean. You might want to listen to it."
"This song is also about lovesickness, and it does meet your requirements. However, it's been a while since it came out, and I feel that its theme is a little off compared to the poem about lovesickness. You can ask him about it. I'm sure he can write something that better meets your requirements this time."
Wang Weimin confidently said to Li Xuexin that he had great confidence in Li Changle.
"Are you so sure?"
