Dangdang.com often organizes activities, and many times there are some discounts of 50% off for purchases over 100. Lin Zhendong found that if he only bought one copy of "If There Is No Tomorrow", he would make a slight loss.
After all, Dangdang only charges 49 yuan for postage. If you only buy one book, you have to pay 6 yuan for postage.
Then Lin Zhendong discovered that today is not only 50 off for spending over 100, but also a gift coupon that can basically be stacked.
So Lin Zhendong took a casual look.
He first added "If There Is No Tomorrow" to his shopping cart, and then he happened to be more interested in the original Shanghai, so he also added the two books "Memories of Old Shanghai" and "Selling Shanghai Stalls" into his shopping cart.
I need to put together an order.
Later, there were two books, "Shanghai Net" and "Death in Shanghai", and "The Great Gatsby" was added by the way.
There are 6 books in total, totaling 209 yuan, and then 100 yuan off for purchases over 200 yuan, plus a coupon for 20 yuan off.
So the 6 books cost a total of 89 yuan.
Dangdang's express delivery is quite fast, and it can basically arrive in two days.
What Lin Zhendong didn't expect was that he didn't expect Dangdang's express delivery, but a call from the Imperial Capital.
The king of crossover singers.
Because he had been in the dungeon for too long, he forgot about this for a while.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, I'm Xiao Zhao. I want to inform you that the recording of "The King of Crossover Singer" will be on May 20th. Please tell me when you will come over. I can buy you a ticket and book a hotel. Let's The recording location is the BTV Grand Theater of the Imperial Television Station, and our participating artists all live in the China World Hotel, less than 2 kilometers away from the Grand Theater..."
The other party was obviously responsible for connecting with Lin Zhendong, so he had a brief chat with Lin Zhendong after getting straight to the point.
This is really what you want to do.
In fact, Lin Zhendong has really forgotten this. In fact, it is normal to think about it. Who else has stayed in the copy of "Charlotte Troubles" for more than ten years, and then immediately went to the copy of "Let the Bullets Fly" , although the copy of "Let the Bullets Fly" is short, but after all, I am a eunuch, so I still feel unhappy.
As a result, Lin Zhendong had actually forgotten about his previous promise to participate in the recording of "The King of Crossover Singer".
If this wasn't a call from the Imperial Capital, Lin Zhendong would still be wondering what he would do in the future.
"Okay, then I'll arrive on May 17th."
Lin Zhendong thought for a while and said.
Xiao Zhao: "Okay, then Teacher Lin, should I help you book a morning or afternoon ticket??"
Lin Zhendong laughed: "It's all fine. It doesn't matter if you book it in the evening. And I'm just an amateur, so I'm not a teacher. I'm a little ashamed of you calling me like that. Just call me Lin Zhendong, or just call me Lin Zhendong." Dongzi is fine too.”
When Xiao Zhao heard Lin Zhendong's words, he breathed a sigh of relief. This was really not because he was cautious, because this is often the case in the entertainment industry. The more popular he is, the more outdated he is, and the more lukewarm he is. Basically, he has a bad temper. maximum.
The last time Imperial TV hosted a variety show, they invited a big V who basically has tens of millions of fans on Weibo. It turned out that this big V made all kinds of requests and was famous for showing affection on Weibo. Yes, but in the few days that Xiao Zhao only knew about it, this big V slept with no less than three fans.
MMP.
As a single guy, Xiao Zhao really didn't understand that a very ugly man could be liked by so many beautiful girls.
He doesn't understand what those pretty girls like about this big V? ?
Do you like him not taking a shower? ?
Do you like his bad temper? ? ?
Like him bald? ?
Or do you like his big yellow teeth that are stained by smoke when he smiles? ? ?
He is obviously a big V born in the 90s, but to Xiao Zhao, he looks like a powerful Su. The most important thing is that he was completely uncooperative when participating in the recording. He wanted to be treated like a first-line star. The producer of the program was so angry that he went crazy: "Who invited me?? Tell him to get out of here. What the hell?"
This is the current situation in the entertainment industry.
Some Internet celebrities may be uneducated, and due to their sudden popularity, they often inflate themselves and think it is their own abilities. In fact, it is nothing more than environmental reasons.
After all, many people say that this is the worst of times, with soaring housing prices and soaring commodity prices. The three big mountains that weigh on you, housing, school, and medicine, can instantly break the backbone of a strong-willed man and make him compromise.
But at the same time, this is also the best of times. All grassroots may suddenly jump out of the dragon's gate.
And this is also the fairest era, because if you don't have enough support, you will fall into the abyss instantly.
Anyway, it all depends on how you look at it.
If there is sunshine in your heart, then what you see is sunshine; if there is an abyss in your heart, then you see the abyss.
They are all small people, and there is no need to make big talk.
In a panic, all I wanted was a few taels of silver, and I was so busy that I just wanted my wife and children to be well.
This is enough.
Before there was a system, this would have been Lin Zhendong's biggest dream.
But now that the system has given him a chance, Lin Zhendong is not only famous in the dungeon, he is also famous in the real world.
This is Lin Zhendong's recent realization.
If he hugged the system and returned his sister's fuss, then Lin Zhendong thought he might as well just buy a piece of tofu and kill him.
Therefore, when someone from "The King of Crossover Singer" called, Lin Zhendong instantly understood what he was doing.
Isn't the best way to become famous is to become a star? ?
Now Lin Zhendong is already an Internet celebrity, but just being an Internet celebrity is not enough. Lin Zhendong wants to be an artist. He does not want to be a short-lived artist who will continue to be ridiculed by many netizens.
Therefore, Lin Zhendong prepared to show off his singing voice on "The King of Crossover Singer".
Nowadays, Lin Zhendong is good at singing and dancing. He believes that stepping on the stage of "The King of Crossover Singer" as an amateur, even if he is just a guest, will still surprise many people.
By then, using "The King of Crossover Singer" as a springboard, Lin Zhendong believes that he is fully capable of achieving his goal.
That's right.
is the goal.
If Lin Zhendong can't achieve such a goal even if the system gives him such skills, then he would be too useless.
Dreams are dreams, and they may never come true.
But the goal is not, the goal is easily achievable.
"Okay, that's it. This mobile phone number is your WeChat number, right? Okay, I understand. I'll add it in a moment."
With that said, Lin Zhendong hung up the phone and directly added Xiao Zhao's WeChat account.
As soon as he passed, Xiao Zhao sent a message: "Hello, Mr. Lin, I have a group of recording artists for "The King of Crossover Singer". Sometimes there are any announcements that need to be announced in the group. I will invite you." Come in."
Lin Zhendong nodded lightly: "Okay."
As soon as he replied, Lin Zhendong was pulled into a group by Xiao Zhao. The group name was "Meeting Friends with Songs".
"Hey, there's a new guy coming???"
"Hurry up and give out red envelopes to the newcomers."
"Inform yourself as a new person and give out red envelopes. This is the rule."
"Not only do you have to give out red envelopes, but you also have to give out fruit photos."
…
Suddenly, as soon as Lin Zhendong was invited into the group, several people in the group started to laugh.
Well, there are a total of 13 people in this 'Meeting Friends with Songs' group, including two hosts from Imperial TV, Dahai and Aya. However, it was not these two hosts who established this group, it was Sister Tao.
No, as soon as Lin Zhendong came in, the other singers were joking with each other. Sister Tao hurriedly said: "Everyone, please stop arguing first and let the newcomers introduce themselves. What should you do if you scare the newcomers like this???"
Lin Zhendong made a face-covering emoji and said: "Sister Tao, hello, everyone, I am Lin Zhendong. I am a small takeaway singer. I usually write online articles. I don't know why I was criticized for singing. I filmed it on the Internet, and then it became popular, and then I was spotted by the cross-border singer, and then I came to this group out of nowhere. In fact, I just want to live a low-key life."
After the translation came out, Sister Tao directly sent a voice message: "Hahaha, I was laughing so hard, Lin Zhendong, I saw a video of you singing, and you sang very well. I didn't expect you to be so humorous."
In addition to Sister Tao, another person named 'Wang Rui' said: "Okay, now that the newlyweds have reported their family status, they can give out red envelopes."
Then another person with the note "Tong Dawei" said: "Lao Wang, can you stop asking for red envelopes all the time? When someone comes in, you want a red envelope. When someone comes in, you want a red envelope."
Obviously Tong Dawei and Wang Rui have similar personalities. Wang Rui responded directly: "You're not talking nonsense. We are both hepatic. If we don't grab red envelopes, where will our cigarette money come from."
As soon as he said this, several other artists all said: "Director Wang is right."
Wang Rui is a well-known TV drama director in China. He has directed many TV dramas such as "Paradise", "Distant Relatives", "Song Returns" and other TV dramas, which have achieved good ratings. The most important thing is that Wang Rui knows how to play and can play. Also likes to sing.
He has collaborated with Sister Tao several times, and the relationship between the two has been very good since then. Sister Tao also knew that Wang Rui liked singing, so she tried to invite him to participate in "The King of Crossover Singers", but she didn't expect that she was invited.
Wang Rui may not be well-known among the public, but he is quite well-known in the entertainment industry. Of course, for the public, everyone has heard of him if he is mentioned as a representative.
In particular, the TV series "Song Gui" once set a good ratings record on CCTV.
Not to mention Tong Dawei, a well-known actor in the industry who has participated in many well-known film and television dramas. He is also the first singer of this year's "Crossover Singer".
In the past two years, fashion has crossed over.
For example, the crossover singer.
Such as crossover comedians.
Such as cross-border host.
For example, exaggerating the world and acting like a director.
In short, it is a cross-border game.
Audiences loved this too.
Let a director sing, let an actor speak cross talk, etc. These cross-border audiences are just watching the excitement. Most people don't understand what the cross talk you are talking about is like, or even don't understand cross talk. They just see familiar artists come on stage and say Cross talk is interesting.
That's it.
This has been popular in the past two years, but the current crossover is almost coming to an end. Lin Zhendong feels that the attention this season of "Crossover Singer" is far less than the previous seasons, but even so, participating in "Crossover Singer" "The King of Singers" is an excellent publicity for Lin Zhendong.
However, Lin Zhendong basically has no fluctuations in these actors, artists, and even directors.
Are you kidding me?
What hasn't he seen in the copy?
So faced with the jokes in the group, Lin Zhendong directly sent a red envelope.
"It's a small red envelope, but it's not a sign of respect. I'm just sending my greetings to all the big guys."
After sending out the red envelope, Lin Zhendong sent another message.
Everyone in the group was happy.
Sister Tao said: "Yes, I thought Lao Wang was stingy enough. I didn't expect you to be even more stingy."
Wang Rui made an angry expression: "I'm not stingy, I can't help it. And Xiao Lin, you get ten points for the 1 money, and you're not married, how can you be so stingy???"
Tong Dawei also made an angry expression: "No, it must be sent again."
Several other artists also said: "Re-release."
"For 1 yuan, you won't suffer any loss if you rob me. If you rob me for 1 yuan, you won't be fooled. So 1 yuan just represents my feelings towards you all."
Lin Zhendong continued to joke.
To be honest, several artists in the group also find it interesting. Nowadays, Internet celebrities are quite common in society, and even the contempt chain is almost non-existent. Whether it is for variety shows or other situations, as long as you are useful, then You can go on variety shows.
In the past, there were a few variety shows that did not want popular artists, but now they have fallen to the point where even Internet celebrities want them.
Have no idea.
Now everything has to be aligned with the ratings.
Lin Zhendong chatted for a few words in the group, and everyone felt that the chat was quite enjoyable, especially since Wang Rui said that he needed an Internet celebrity in his new drama to see if Lin Zhendong was interested.
Lin Zhendong said: "Director Wang, don't think you can get me to give out red envelopes like this. You can't even try to bribe me with a role."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zhendong sent a red envelope: "Director Wang, please check."
After doing this, the group became more lively.
Everyone was having a great time chatting, and Sister Tao was also happy with it. The two hosts even came out from time to time to liven up the atmosphere. Because everyone was familiar with each other, they would be more open-minded during the recording.
If everyone is holding on, or if they can't let go of participating in variety shows, like a veteran cadre, then it won't be interesting.
After happily ending the chat, Lin Zhendong received a call from the agency in the afternoon.
It turns out that all the owners have moved out and they need to formally hand over the house.
The agency is holding on to a fee of 10,000 yuan. Basically, the house is officially handed over today. The homeowner pays the property fee, water fee, electricity fee, ignition fee and other expenses all at once, and then it is over.
By 6pm, it was all done.
The owner left the key.
The landlord was a little reluctant to leave before leaving. After all, he originally bought the house with the attitude of getting better and better in the future, but no one expected that such a thing would happen.
Income can sometimes be high.
But the income is sometimes low.
People, you can’t always think about the time when your income was high.
At 6:30, Xin Zhijiang came over to help Lin Zhendong measure the house. After all, he also lived in the southern district of La Défense, so it was quite close.
