Chapter 167 Publicity Interview

In the evening, Yan Ran treated the three of them and the dog, or barely four people, to go out and celebrate together. The reason was not that Xu Rui's first album was released online for listening, but that the share of "The Night the Comet Came" had arrived. It was similar to what they calculated. The three platforms deducted taxes and the total amount was more than 2 million. For a low-cost debut, it was a great success.

After the celebration, the others thought about Xu Rui's album. Li Chuanping asked: "Didn't you go on the show during the album promotion period?"

"You must go. There is an interview tomorrow, an indoor variety show on February 10, a birthday party on February 18, and then a talk show. Finally, I will be a flying guest on the second season of "Falling in Love at First Sight" with Yan Ran."

Xu Rui was reminded of this by Lu Ziliang many times, and he is now familiar with it.

Li Chuanping said mysteriously: "Do you know where "Falling in Love at First Sight" will be recorded this year?"

Xu Rui shook his head: "I don't know, it hasn't been decided yet."

"Just decided." Li Chuanping said excitedly: "This year we will go to Hainan to record, tropical scenery, surfing, cold drinks, and most importantly, beautiful women on the beach..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Rui helped him finish: "It has nothing to do with you."

Li Chuanping said angrily: "That's not necessarily true. I'm single and I also yearn for spring."

Xu Rui looked at him: "There are no four seasons in the tropics, no spring, give up."

Li Chuanping was indignant: "There are no four seasons in the tropical monsoon climate, it's just not very clear."

After speaking, he and Xu Rui looked at the two ladies at the table at the same time, wanting them to judge, but unfortunately Yan Ran and Du Xiao were used to this situation and were eating happily, and didn't pay any attention to them.

During the meal, Du Xiao swiped her phone a few times, and unexpectedly swiped out the trial version of "The Wind Rises" from the flash broadcast.

"So fast, someone has recorded the broadcast and edited it into the flash broadcast." She showed her phone to Yan Ran.

Yan Ran took the phone, tapped Xu Rui, and showed him the comments: "Fans can't wait."

Xu Rui took a look and saw that many people in the comment area were saying "good" and "quick release".

As he said, the promotion is mainly for passers-by. Fans don't need too much promotion, and they have already figured out the release process of his album.

In the super chat, many people are discussing it enthusiastically.

"Three hits, one preview per week, pre-sale starts on 2.11, the whole album will be online on 2.18, and the eight songs in the whole album will be priced at 20 yuan."

"Only previews, not the main singles first?"

"It's a bit strange. There are three hits in an album with eight songs, and the main singles are only previewed and not released in advance. It's different from the current mainstream album release method."

"Shenghua Entertainment won't cheat Xu Rui."

"Not really. There will be interviews to talk about this album during the album preheating. Let's wait and see what Xu Rui says."

Some fans are very foresighted. The next day, Xu Rui followed Lu Ziliang to accept media interviews on Weibo.

It has been almost a year since his debut, and he is familiar with filming and interviews. Sitting in the nanny car, Lu Ziliang showed him the possible questions and reminded him: "This interview is not a live broadcast, there is no game session, the topic is all about the album, it is more formal. If the host asks questions other than the album, you can answer them at your discretion, if not, just refuse and let them edit it themselves."

"Okay."

"We're here, let's go up."

After the car parked, Xu Rui put on sunglasses and quietly went upstairs accompanied by Lu Ziliang.

After entering the elevator, Xu Rui saw a girl holding a cup of milk tea. She looked back at him, turned around, and then turned back to look again. Suddenly, she covered her mouth with one hand and uttered a small "ah" sound, "You are... you are..."

Xu Rui took off his sunglasses: "Oh, you recognized me after all."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the girl stamp her feet lightly: "I can't remember your name!"

Xu Rui: "..."

Seeing his helpless face, the girl suddenly laughed: "I'm kidding, Xu Rui, I like you very much, can we take a photo together?"

"Sure." Xu Rui stood up Next to the girl, he asked her to take a selfie and said, "I also want to say that you work here and should often see artists, so you shouldn't be so excited."

"That's not the case. I should be excited." The girl looked very cheerful. She went to a higher floor than Xu Rui. Seeing that he was about to go down, she cheered him up: "Come on, the album will sell well!"

"Thank you."

Xu Rui sighed. No wonder many people want to be famous. In addition to money, the vanity brought by being liked or even admired by others can easily make people addicted and lose themselves inadvertently.

Arriving at the arranged interview room, Xu Rui was very punctual. After Lu Ziliang communicated with the other party's staff, the interview officially began.

Host: "Please briefly introduce your album."

This kind of question was planned, Xu Rui followed the instructions: "The name of this album is "Over the Hills", the whole album has eight songs, and it will be officially released online on 2.18."

""Over the Hills", many people are interpreting the name of your album, and some people think the theme is growth, is that right?"

Xu Rui didn't want the interview atmosphere to be too rigid, so he asked back: "What do you think?"

The host lady responded quickly: "I think so."

Xu Rui smiled and said, "Actually, the theme of this album is love. Of course, love and growth are not separated. As we grow up, our views on love may change, and this album contains my views and feelings about different periods of life and different love experiences."

The host lady raised her eyebrows slightly: "It's a bit unexpected. Many people think that you will continue the style on the stage of "Original New Generation" and write something more positive."

Xu Rui was puzzled: "Isn't love beautiful and positive?"

The host lady tried to explain: "No, it's just more grand."

Xu Rui immediately said: "How many great deeds in this world come from love!"

"I..." The host lady was speechless for a moment.

Lu Ziliang held his forehead on the side, and the nitpicking started again.

All this was just Xu Rui's subconscious behavior. After noticing it, he blurted out: "Do you really want to scold me in your heart?"

The host lady waved her hands repeatedly: "No, I didn't!"

Xu Rui no longer embarrassed her and said with a smile: "Love is what everyone yearns for the most, and it is also one of the most beautiful feelings in the world. Love songs also have the widest audience. Since everyone likes to listen to them, I have no reason to deliberately avoid it.

Writing songs is to express, to express inner feelings. I have respect for hard workers in all walks of life, pride in the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, and of course, a desire for love.

I have been getting along very well with my girlfriend recently, and there are many love scenes in my heart. It shouldn't be so surprising to write about love in the first album."
