Chapter 457: The Decision on Declining the Invitation of the Central Television Station
The reason given by Chen Chufan was not very good, but it also made Mrs. Chen difficult to argue.
Mrs. Chen has specifically understood Chen Chufan's debut experience, so she is very clear about Chen Chufan's experience. Even Mrs. Chen once admired the discerning Liu Xiaoting very much. A chance encounter in a café can see Chen Chufan's talent, and he decided to invest in Chen Chufan and send Chen Chufan abroad for further study in music.
In a sense, Liu Xiaoting is the discoverer of Chen Chufan's music career, and from this point of view, just to repay his kindness, it is understandable for Chen Chufan to go to the scene when the Qingshuiwan Beijing branch opened. What's more, the two sides have also signed a contract in the past. The only question is, does it really take a week to attend the opening of a club?
"And when is this opening ceremony?" Mrs. Chen, who grasped the key to the question, asked directly.
"Next Saturday, March 12th, is said to be a good day, although I didn't find any good day!" Chen Chufan replied quickly, confirming that what he said was true.
"March 12th?" Mrs. Chen muttered to herself, as if she had thought of something, and quickly flipped through the book in her hand that arranged Chen Chufan's schedule, her face became bitter.
"What's wrong?" Chen Chufan asked suspiciously.
"I suggest you talk to that Manager Liu, if you must be invited to be a guest on the opening day, can you open on another day!" Mrs. Chen didn't even have any questions about whether the guests who were doing an opening ceremony needed a week to prepare, and directly gave her own suggestions.
"Why? Are you still proficient in hexagrams, and is it not a good day to open your business? Chen Chufan frowned, extremely puzzled.
"That's not it, but on March 12, CCTV invited you to go to the capital to record a program. If you push an interview with CCTV, you end up attending the opening ceremony of a small club in Beijing. Do you think this is appropriate? Mrs. Chen raised the schedule in his hand and said helplessly.
"What should I do? What's wrong with this, isn't it my freedom to participate in what I participate in and what not to participate in? What can the central TV station do with me? Besides, didn't I say it last time, don't you promise them first, I haven't agreed, can it still be considered a no-show? Chen Chufan replied disappreciatively.
"I really don't know what's going on in your head? It is you who say that you want to develop in the hinterland, and the central TV station is the most influential media in the hinterland, and there is no one. Do you have to have some misunderstanding with them in order to feel comfortable? You asked me to push an interview with CCTV, and then I attended the opening ceremony of a club in Beijing? What do you ask the central TV crew to think? What do you make the leaders of CCTV think? You're asking yourself for trouble! If it's inconvenient for you to say, I'll call that Manager Liu. Even if you don't want to attend the CCTV interview, it's best not to attend the opening ceremony of the club on that day! Mrs. Chen said bitterly.
Chen Chufan hesitated. Mrs. Chen is obviously thinking about his future future. Although according to his plan, he plans not to mix in the entertainment industry in half a year, but even if he writes classical music or plays the piano. Maybe there will be times when he will intersect with Central TV, and it is indeed not a wise thing for him to really offend CCTV.
But Chen Chufan didn't want Mrs. Chen to open his mouth. The reason is simple. He didn't want Aunt Liu to think that he was the kind of person who forgot his roots when he became famous. It's not just a matter of face. In fact, if Chen Chufan hadn't broken into such a big reputation, he would have opened this mouth a little more, but it was precisely because he now had a great reputation that he was reluctant to open this mouth.
But then again, if Chen Chufan didn't have his current achievements, CCTV wouldn't have invited him. This can be regarded as a kind of fame.
That's it. Chen Chufan thought about it for a moment, and finally decided: "It's better not to want Mrs. Chen." On the CCTV side, you can tell the truth. Besides, I'm with all the contracts, and I have a sense of where to go. And the leaders of the central telephone station are all big names in the system. The big guy has a lot of energy, how can he worry about a small person like me for this kind of P thing? It's really not good, so I'll postpone the interview with the central TV station for one day, it's a big deal that I stay in the capital for one more day, and after the opening ceremony of the club on the 12th, I will participate in the recording of the program on the central TV station on the 13th! ”
"You've decided?" Hearing Chen Chufan's resolute tone, Mrs. Chen sighed helplessly, although she was not optimistic about the treatment method given by Chen Chufan, she also did not think that she could convince this young man who was sometimes stubborn enough to make her helpless.
In fact, as Chen Chufan said, the inland central television station is a department within the system of country Z and is one of the most important propaganda mouthpieces of the government of country Z. is not as completely commercial as the TV station on Hong Kong Island, so the status of CCTV in country Z is self-evident, which also makes CCTV have a natural sense of superiority when facing artists.
Therefore, Chen Chufan turned down the invitation of CCTV and went to participate in the opening of a club in the capital instead, which was absolutely unwise in Mrs. Chen's opinion. However, when Chen Chufan decided on something, he would never listen to persuasion. Fortunately, every time Chen Chufan's insistence made his career go to the next level, which also made Mrs. Chen have no confidence to convince Chen Chufan, so she naturally didn't bother to waste saliva.
"Yes, that's it, Mrs. Chen! When I got to the Hong Kong Island airport, I went straight back to the mainland first! If you have contacted the central TV station, you can call me and let me know! Chen Chufan took advantage of the opportunity that Mrs. Chen's heart was extremely entangled, and took out the tray of arrangements after getting off the plane in one go.
Mrs. Chen just rolled her eyes in the end, didn't say anything, and acquiesced to Chen Chufan's own arrangement. She can't help it if she doesn't agree. As Chen Chufan's agent, she naturally knows that the generous contract signed by Chen Chufan with Universal is simply the "Treaty of Shimonoseki" in the entertainment industry, which allows Chen Chufan to enjoy a high degree of freedom. As an agent, she is naturally even more difficult to say more.
So after Chen Chufan arrived on Hong Kong Island, he didn't even leave the airport, so he flew back to W City on another plane. This is definitely not good news for the countless Hong Kong Island reporters and fans who are waiting for Chen Chufan to appear outside the airport. They had been waiting at the airport for a long time, but they hadn't even touched Chen Chufan's shadow. In particular, many reporters who have traveled thousands of miles from the mainland to Hong Kong Island have made a trip in vain. (To be continued......)
