It's 11 o'clock, and the bus and subway have long been unable to catch up, but anyway, they haven't caught up in the past two days, and Chen Lei is used to it.

took out his mobile phone and called Uncle Tong, who said that he was sending a guest to Nanlishi Road, and if Chen Lei could wait, he would come over as soon as he finished sending the guest.

Left and right are not in a hurry at this time, and so on is nothing.

Galaxy Media is close to the princess's tomb, which is an important business district in the West Third Ring Road, and it is usually very lively, but at this moment, it is past 11 o'clock, most shopping malls are closed, and only a few 24-hour video stores are still lit.

Although the cultural and entertainment industry in this era is not very developed, the protection of copyright is still very strict, and pirated digital publications cannot be said to be completely absent, but it is definitely not something that ordinary people can get.

Most ordinary consumers, such as fans and movie fans, can only choose offline regular audio and video stores to buy albums or DVDs.

And e-commerce has not yet risen in these years, so the vast majority of album sales are sold through these video stores scattered all over the city.

These small shops have become a barometer of the entertainment industry, and from here you can really see the popularity of a star among the people.

After all, unlike virtual digital albums, sales of physical records, posters, and cheers cannot be faked.

Chen Lei walked into this video store called "Star Fan", unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, the shelves were full of Wu Mengdie's works, and her album "Listening to the Sea" was placed in the most conspicuous position.

On the walls on both sides are huge posters of Wu Mengdie, under which are hung all kinds of supporters, as well as light signs and the like.

The area of the store is not large, but it looks very professional, and the works of several artists that Chen Lei knows in this world can be seen here.

In the stereo, the title song of the same name from Wu Mengdie's "Listening to the Sea" album is played, and the voice is just like what I heard on the phone, sweet and glutinous.

Other than that, there was no other sound, and it was a little quiet.

There are very few people, only a teenage girl who doesn't know what grade she is in, and she looks quite cute.

"Sir, what are you going to buy? We have records, DVDs, comic books, celebrity computer games, everything. ”

"It's so late, why didn't you go home to rest, and still look at the store here?" Chen Lei asked curiously.

The little girl wore two pigtails and flicked them around with the amplitude of her speech, which was very interesting. She was very generous, not shy at all, and said, "My dad went to buy supper and will be back in a while." Sir, what do you need, just ask, I know the price. ”

Chen Lei pointed to the shelf facing the door and said, "Miss Wu doesn't seem to have a good reputation recently, there are many people scolding her on the Internet, and even the TV station has reported it, why do you still put her album in such a conspicuous position in the store?"

The little girl said nonchalantly: "My dad said that the more people scolded her, the more the TV station reported her, the more it showed that she was on fire! Not everyone is a celebrity fan, many people have heard Wu Mengdie's name for the first time from the newspaper and TV today, and then when they passed by the video store, they saw Wu Mengdie's record, and when they came in, they thought she looked good, and she could sing well after listening to it, so they paid for it. Today, the sales of Wu Mengdie's works are several times higher than usual. ”

Chen Lei listened to the little girl's words, and couldn't cry or laugh a little, Ling Zunzhen is a fucking talent.

But the words are not rough, black and red are also red.

It doesn't matter if you are black or red, red and black, or red and black, in short, you are so popular now, you are all on the Internet, newspapers and television, of course, you have to take the opportunity to take more of your goods.

The little girl didn't know if she had been watching the store alone for a long time, and she was very excited to meet a living person, and she was very interested in talking at the moment.

"Today, I also met a lot of Wu Mengdie's fans and fans, and I came to buy a lot of albums, saying that I wanted to support idols with practical actions. However, there are also many people who come to express their dissatisfaction, and a fat man also bought a poster of Wu Mengdie, and burned it after running outside the door. I cried while burning, crying miserably, and said that my youth was dead. ”

Chen Lei smiled and nodded, there are brain-dead fans in any era.

Wu Mengdie used to be a pure person, known as the head of the Jade Girl faction, but at this time, it was revealed that he opened a room with a middle-aged rich businessman, and some fans who were too deep in the play would of course not be able to stand it.

After chatting with the little girl for so long, it seems that it is impossible to say that I don't buy a few things. Chen Lei looked around and picked up a very strange musical instrument that looked like a stone from the shelf on the side.

Seeing this, the little girl took the initiative to explain: "This is an ocarina, my father brought it back from the island country, and said that there are more people playing it there." But since I brought it back, I haven't sold any of it. ”

Chen Lei picked up the ocarina and tried to blow it, the timbre was okay, and said with a smile: "The ocarina is equivalent to Tao Xun, which was recorded in our poetry thousands of years ago, but it is not an island country." The reason why no one buys it is because people don't know much about it nowadays, and second, there are too few good songs. Since I met it today, I'm going to be the first to buy it. ”

At this time, the mobile phone rang, and Tong Chuanhai was already waiting for him outside.

Chen Lei paid for the ocarina, bought a few albums of Wu Mengdie, and when he went out, he happened to meet a middle-aged man in his forties, walking in with a large bag of Kaifeng dishes.

"Xiao Chen, your time to get off work is getting later and later day by day, young people have to pay attention to their bodies no matter how hard they work. ”

After getting into the car, Tong Chuanhai took the initiative to care.

Chen Lei sat in the co-pilot, fastened his seat belt, and said, "It's not so late every day, the main reason is that there are things in the past two days, so I seem to be a little busy." Besides, Uncle Tong, don't you also see the night work? You work so hard, what reason do we young people have not to fight? ”

Tong Chuanhai laughed and said: "I'm not a night worker, it's my daughter who has been working the night shift recently, and sometimes she doesn't get off work until one or two o'clock in the morning. ”

Seeing the record in Chen Lei's hand, he said: "I have also heard this big star's song on the radio, and it is quite good." But today I read a lot of people scolding her in the newspaper and on TV, did this girl offend anyone?"

Seeing that Tong Chuanhai took the initiative to mention it, Chen Lei also became interested, people like Tong Chuanhai can be said to be the most representative of the attitude of the general public, Chen Lei wants to hear his opinion.

Chen Lei told Tong Chuanhai about the so-called "overnight stay" concisely.

Tong Chuanhai waved his hand disapprerovingly after hearing this, and said: "Hey, if you want me to say that other people's daughters are not married, who to deal with is people's freedom, what kind of people are not broken, is it not that the jade girl will not get married and have children? That's not the jade girl, it's the stone girl!"

The uncle paused and said: "These fans are too deep in the play, even if they don't open a house with rich businessmen, they won't be able to take their turn." I can't even get to Tong County!"

Chen Lei smiled, if fans don't get too deep into the play, those stars won't go to great lengths to sell their characters.

And people like me, aren't they unemployed?

When the car got on Guangfu Road, Tong Chuanhai turned his head and asked, "Go home directly, or where are you going?"

"To the Olympic Internet café outside the West Fourth Ring Road. Chen Lei said.
