Chapter 356 Am I Really a Gentleman?



The new album by the band Dynamic surprised everyone.

The album was originally thought to be a big hit, but in the end it gradually weakened. On July 4, the album sales in a single day were only 300,000 copies, 200,000 copies less than yesterday. This is a complete cliff-like decline...

Since their debut, the Power Group has never encountered such a terrible situation!

This is an album produced by two big names in the circle, Lin Yu and Chen Guanxiong. How could this be the result in the end?

Some senior executives of Tianyu were stunned at first when they saw the speed of the decline.

However, when they saw that the Internet was full of news about the albums "Lonely Northern Hemisphere" and "Stubborn", that these two songs were being played on the streets, and that all major charts were always dominated by these two songs and the songs in these two albums, they felt a vague sense of powerlessness.

Although the single-day album sales of "Lonely Northern Hemisphere" dropped to 200,000 and "Stubborn" also dropped to 300,000, the two albums were in a state of fierce competition online, neither giving in and even full of gunpowder.

According to the planning of the top management, the Power Band's "Dawn" should have directly entered the battlefield and overshadowed the reputation of these two albums without saying a word.

pity……

They miscalculated!

The battlefield has been completely occupied by these two albums, and because of the storm of positive energy, "Dawn" is struggling and becoming weaker day by day.

Instead of becoming kings who suppressed all demons and monsters, they looked like victims.

Do you really want to be a spectator?

Just watch them act tough and do nothing about it?

Everyone was unwilling to accept this. Once this idea came up, everyone felt that this was impossible.

They would rather believe that this is the dormant period of "Dawn" than believe that it is the truth.

after all……

Isn’t this ridiculous?

They are a top-notch group. Every time they release an album, it creates a craze!

How could it have come to this?

But when the data on the 5th came out, the sales volume of "Dawn" album dropped directly to 200,000 copies, which was exactly the same as the daily sales volume of "Lonely Northern Hemisphere". They found that they could only be spectators.

Be a tragic spectator who doesn't even have the qualifications to participate in the war.

On the contrary, some inspirational albums by second-tier stars, such as Hong Wei's "I Can" and Ashu's "Persistence", which are small-investment albums, have actually created good sales.

Their Dawn...

Well, it's all about love, but no substantive inspirational singles.

In other words, they were born at the wrong time.

It would have been better if it had been sent earlier or later to avoid the storm.

You said you regret it?

What's the use of regretting? The album has been released, and the necessary resources and investment have been given. In the end, there are no results at all. Who can I blame?

It’s because this inspirational trend came so suddenly, so suddenly that they had no time to prepare at all.

Now they can only watch "Stubborn" and "Lonely Northern Hemisphere" pretend to be cool in front of them, snatching away all the traffic and information that should belong to them...

The album is very popular here, but the reputation of "This Man From Earth 2" is terrible!

Everyone was scolding Thomson for making a poor imitation of his original film and what a crap movie he had made. There were even countless film critics who started criticizing Thomson, saying that he had ruined the good idea of ​​The Man From Earth and ruined the masterpiece.

Although the word of mouth is very bad, after all, "This Man From Earth 2" has its previous reputation, and the first batch of moviegoers will still go to the theaters to watch it. Although the box office has been declining, there is no problem in recovering the cost, but it is completely impossible to say how much profit it has made.

Apart from some channel fees and taxes, the most I can earn is some hard work fee...

Thomson was scolded, but Lu Yuan was deified by some movie fans.

They think the reason why "This Man From Earth 2" failed is that the screenwriter is not Lu Yuan, and there is no Lu Yuan's guidance in the filming.

They felt that if Lu Yuan was allowed to write the screenplay for "This Man From Earth 2", it would definitely be another masterpiece, and even the box office would be completely immeasurable!

Who is Lu Yuan?

It has always been a case of making a small profit with a big investment, and trying to get a box office of hundreds of millions with a cost of less than 10 million!

In fact, if this movie "This Man From Earth 2" is produced by Lu Yuan's company, the total box office may exceed 1 billion!

In addition to stepping on Thompson, Lu Yuan's fans also felt an inexplicable sense of pride in their hearts.

Regardless of anything else, just say that Lu Yuan is awesome!

The second subject exam went very smoothly.

Lu Yuan was bumping around a lot when he was practicing, but during the test, Lu Yuan felt that many things were easy for him. He didn't even make a single mistake in the details. Even some items like reversing into a garage and parallel parking were performed extremely well, as if he had mastered the skill set!

after all……

Those who are destined to be tragic have all been tragic, and those who are destined to be doomed have all been doomed. It’s impossible for people to stay so miserable forever, right?

The saying "diligence can make up for lack of talent" is completely applicable to Lu Yuan. He has laid a more solid foundation than anyone else.

When coach Chen Guoqiang saw Lu Yuan pass, he couldn't even believe his eyes.

He originally thought that even if Lu Yuan could pass, he would fail once and would pass the make-up exam the second time.

But……

Lu Yuan got full marks in the field test.

This made Chen Guoqiang quite pleased.

After passing the second subject test, Lu Yuan felt that he had a very strange understanding of cars.

When they came back, Coach Chen Guoqiang asked Lu Yuan to try the car. As soon as Lu Yuan got in the car, he drove straight back to the company like an experienced driver. He drove fast when he should and slowed down when he should be full. He even did not cross the road line, which is something that all students who have just started to learn to drive would encounter.

Along the way, Chen Guoqiang couldn't even find any fault with Lu Yuan!

Chen Guoqiang was a little surprised.

so……

Do I not even need to practice on the road and can I even sign up for the test directly?

Is this still the Lu Yuan who was always bumping into things during driving practice and made people very worried?

Lu Yuan smiled.

He knew that his coordination was indeed a bit lacking and his talent was average.

But this is not an excuse to keep cheating on his father. He knows his shortcomings. These days he has been thinking about traffic rules and theoretical knowledge on how to drive properly. In addition, during field practice, Lu Yuan has been testing the performance of the car. Every time he rides in Wang Jinxue's car, he will stare at Wang Jinxue driving, and at the same time, he also very attentively memorizes every move of the coach's driving...

Thanks to hard work and utmost dedication, Lu Yuan's overall control over the car was improved after he finished the test.

Of course, Chen Guoqiang was unaware of all these efforts.

After returning to the company after the exam, Lu Yuan's phone rang before he had even had a few minutes to rest.

"Sorry, I'm so sorry Lu Yuan... I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

"Thomson, what's wrong?"

"I'm sorry... I ruined 'This Man From Earth 2'. I feel deeply guilty. I dare not be so arrogant. I shouldn't have done this. I'm sorry, Mr. Lu Yuan..."

"Forehead……"

Thomson's voice was not fast.

Lu Yuan could understand what Thomson said. At the same time, Lu Yuan could respond to him. Although his spoken English was still not very standard and there were some embarrassing grammatical errors, Thomson could understand what Lu Yuan said.

The two sides did not use a translator and communicated slowly.

Thomson called to apologize to Lu Yuan.

In fact, he felt that he was very sorry for Lu Yuan, for making a bad movie that should have been a big hit...

He felt guilty about Lu Yuan's trust and felt that he was a real bastard!

After carefully reviewing his own script, Thomson indeed found that there were major problems in his script, which had completely lost that flavor.

Lu Yuan comforted Thomson in broken English, saying that he didn't care, and said something like failure is the mother of success...

Thomson was so moved that his voice seemed to be choked!

He remembered the time he bought Lu Yuan's script.

At that time, Lu Yuan was still reluctant to authorize him to film "This Man Comes from Earth 2"!

Now that he thought about it and looked back, he felt that he understood.

Lu Yuan was afraid that he would ruin his script. After all, every screenwriter hopes that his movie sequels will continue to be popular, and no one wants to be scolded...

But the fact is, I really ruined it!

Unexpectedly, Lu Yuan not only did not scold me, but comforted me...

He could tell that Lu Yuan's comfort came from the heart and was sincere!

This made Thomson even more embarrassed!

"Mr. Lu Yuan, your character makes me feel ashamed. I have met many gentlemen, but I have never seen a gentleman as magnanimous as you..."

"No, no, no... I'm not a gentleman..."

"No, you are! Mr. Lu Yuan, I hope to be your partner and friend in the future..."

“Ahem…”

Thomson's touching words made Lu Yuan feel ashamed.

Lu the barbarian, Lu the bastard, Lu the dog...

Lu Yuan was used to hearing these nicknames.

Suddenly a gentleman...

Lu Yuan got goosebumps.

After being in this world for so long, no one has ever called Lu Yuan a gentleman.

This is really too ridiculous, isn't it?

I made your money, and you apologized to me and sincerely praised me as a gentleman...

Lu Yuan discovered that Thomson was actually a really nice person!

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuan looked out the window silently, and finally looked in the mirror again.

He discovered that he did have a bit of elegance in him.

In fact, I can also take the gentleman route in the future.

After all, those so-called Er Gouzi and Lu Manzi on the Internet...

Look!

Is this reasonable?

He felt that he really should establish a slightly more positive image for himself.

He stretched and walked out of the office. As he walked out, he happened to meet Wang Jinxue who was drinking tea from a cup.

"Jinxue..."

"What's wrong?"

"Do you think I'm a gentleman?"

"puff!"

Wang Jinxue was immediately furious when she heard Lu Yuan's nonsensical words, and stared at Lu Yuan as if she had seen a ghost.

"What...did you get upset about? Are you okay?"

"No, I was just joking...haha, just a joke..."

"Oh, that's a good joke."

“…”

This is quite embarrassing...

"Get ready. There are less than ten days left until Brando arrives..."

"Yes, I understand."

"This exchange will be very careful and serious. You need to pay attention to many things. Do you understand?"

"I know. As for Lu Yuan..."

"I will personally ask Lu Yuan for his opinion... Wait, isn't Lu Yuan a member of our piano association?"

"Um... this..."

"What the hell is this association director doing? Is he crazy?"

"Lu Yuan never applied to us, so..."

"Are you crazy? Letting Lu Yuan apply? Don't you know what Lu Yuan's status is among international pianists?"

"Isn't that right? I'm sorry..."

"If you want to say sorry, don't say it to me, say it to Lu Yuan. You know, Lu Yuan might be very upset right now!"
