Before you know it, the time soon came to the scorching summer of July.

"Cicadas, I haven't heard them for a long time, I miss them very much."

Listening to the sound of cicadas one after another, Cao Zhiqiang, who was wearing a vest and holding his hands behind his back, looked up at the big locust tree in the courtyard steadily, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

"What's there to miss about this?" Hao Shuwen, who was wearing a yellow bat shirt and a blue one-step skirt in the back, and a red plastic slipper on her feet, pouted, "Isn't it like this in any summer?" I call every day, and I'm annoyed to death. ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and continued to keep his hands behind his back and his head up: "You don't understand, you don't understand." ”

Well, he's actually talking about himself in his previous life.

Because when Cao Zhiqiang was young in his previous life, he could indeed hear the sound of cicadas, but when he grew up, it would be difficult to hear the sound of cicadas in the city.

Even in the capital, after he grew up in his previous life, within the third ring road of the capital, he basically couldn't hear the sound of cicadas in the summer.

But in this era, even in the second ring road, in the summer, cicadas are singing everywhere, which can't help but remind Cao Zhiqiang of his childhood in his previous life, of course, he misses it.

It's a pity that he can't tell Hao Shuwen about these things, so he can only continue to move himself like this.

"Yes, yes, I forgot that you are a great poet of letters." Hao Shuwen stretched, walked over from behind, and patted Cao Zhiqiang's shoulder, "Alas, how do you look at my new clothes, don't they look good?" This is a southern product, and I heard that it is particularly popular there. ”

Cao Zhiqiang turned his head and glanced at Hao Shuwen, but found that she was only wearing a thin really good bat shirt on her upper body, and she didn't wear underwear at all.

That's it, the key is that she still pinched the collar of the bat shirt on her chest with her hand, and kept flickering, which is a bit of that.

Seeing this scene, Cao Zhiqiang frowned slightly, quickly turned his head again, and continued to look at the old locust tree in the yard.

"Sister Hao, isn't it good for you to dress like this? What kind of system? ”

"What's so bad." Hao Shuwen didn't care, but smiled lightly, "This is my home, and there are no outsiders, what are you afraid of?" ”

"Then why don't you wear underwear underneath?" Cao Zhiqiang continued to frown.

"It's too hot in underwear." Hao Shuwen flattened her mouth, "On such a hot day, you old men can only wear a small vest, or even bare-chested, we women have to wear a bra and then a skirt, there are a lot of clothes, it's so unfair." ”

Cao Zhiqiang said angrily: "Then you have the ability to go out bare-chested." ”

"Hmph, who's afraid of whom?" Hao Shuwen glared, "I'll take it off for you!" ”

After speaking, Hao Shuwen was about to take off her bat shirt on the spot.

Seeing that Hao Shuwen was really going to take off her shirt, Cao Zhiqiang was startled, and hurriedly went up and held Hao Shuwen's hands: "Don't sister, I can't do it, I can't do this at home." ”

Hao Shuwen glanced at Cao Zhiqiang: "Finally look at me?" Hmph, eat and wipe clean, and you won't recognize it when you put on your pants, right? Or do you think I'm old and yellow, and I can't get into your eyes? ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled bitterly: "Sister, where did you start with this?" ”

"Humph!" Hao Shuwen gently hit Cao Zhiqiang's chest with her shoulder again dissatisfied, "You said, you haven't been here for many days, huh?" I see, you just have stiff wings, think I'm useless, and want to dump me, don't you? ”

Speaking of this, Hao Shuwen said with a sad face: "Qiangzi, if you really don't like me, just tell me directly, I will never pester you, you don't have to avoid me so deliberately!" ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled bitterly: "Sister, where does this start?" How could I not want you, how could I deliberately avoid you?

I'm really busy these days.

I'm busy every day now, my feet don't touch the ground, and I'm busy every day.

No, I've just finished my busy day, and I'm the first to come to see you.

I'm like this, and you still say that about me?

I'm so hard! ”

Cao Zhiqiang's words are true, because he is really busy now, but he is not busy with the convenience kiosk project, but other things.

Although the convenience kiosk project is indeed a very important project in the near future, it is only very important to Director Li and others, and for Cao Zhiqiang himself, it is not what he pays the most attention to.

Because although the convenience kiosk project is from Cao Zhiqiang's hand, he has already laid out the plan and the relationship, and the rest of the specific implementation does not need him to go out in person.

Therefore, while others are busy running the convenience kiosk project and preparing for the publication of the magazine, Cao Zhiqiang's main energy is still on writing songs and singing records.

Although in the past, because of Cao Zhiqiang's lack of understanding of the characteristics of the times and technology, the first record single did not sell well, but this did not stump Cao Zhiqi.

In fact, the so-called debut single sales are not ideal, it is just that it is not ideal according to Cao Zhiqiang's personal expectations, and according to the normal domestic record release during this period, it is already very good.

Within two weeks of its release, the first single sold more than 30,000 tapes and more than 18,000 vinyl records, which has surpassed many old singers.

The key is that Cao Zhiqiang's pricing is very high, his single recording tape is priced at six yuan a plate, and the vinyl record is ten yuan a piece, so it is really good to have this kind of result.

It's a pity that Cao Zhiqiang is very dissatisfied with this result, very dissatisfied.

So half a month ago, he listened to Xiang Dongfang's suggestion and decisively changed his sales strategy.

According to Cao Zhiqiang's plan, since the first single is too expensive because the price is too high and only one song is not cost-effective, resulting in low cost performance, so the results are not good, so make a limited sale and make it a collectible commemorative edition.

Music tapes, as long as the quality is good enough and the limited edition is released, there must be added value, which is the same as luxury.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang decided that for the release of his first single "Red Flag Fluttering", the tape will be limited to 50,000 copies, and the vinyl record will be limited to 30,000 copies, and the price will remain the same, until the stock is out.

In order to let people know the limited release of the first single, he also specially spent money on the Central Radio Station, and put a short advertisement in it, the advertising content is "Red Flag Piao Piao Piao is a limited edition" published by Huaxia Audio and Video Company, and the singer Ah Qiang is the poet Qiangzi.

That's right, Cao Zhiqiang didn't play the new vest for the sake of sales this time, but directly told the truth that the singer Ah Qiang is the poet Qiangzi in the form of advertising, so as to use the identity of the poet Qiangzi to increase the popularity of the single "Red Flag Fluttering" and attract everyone to buy it.

In addition, he is also working overtime to produce the next new album, which is called "Blooming Life!"

That's right, Cao Zhiqiang directly copied the album of Mr. Wang in his previous life, of course, there are some minor changes in the lyrics, so that the lyrics are more in line with the times.

The reason why he copied the album "Blooming Life" is because he thinks that Mr. Wang's songs are particularly suitable for this era.

First of all, the songs in "Blooming Life" are all rock and roll style, which is the favorite music style of young people in China during this period.

Secondly, the songs in this album, in addition to the passionate and progressive style, the lyrics are also positive, and they can all be regarded as patriotic songs.

Finally, the songs in this album are very consistent with the popular elements of the current strict rectification of the law and order situation, and they also magically coincide with Cao Zhiqiang's personal growth experience.

For example, "Wandering on Chang'an Street", "Confused Like a Child", "Helplessness in order to Let Life Continue", "Breaking the Cocoon in the Stars", "The Firmness of Snow Bell Flower", "The Awakening in the Blooming Life", and then to "I Love You China's Sublimation."

The whole series of songs, with troughs and peaks, happens to be a story about growth, but also a story about awakening, very inspirational, very healing, very positive, and of course very good.

Although there is also a song called "Journey, the lyrics are not so positive", Cao Zhiqiang also thought about whether to eliminate this song, or simply change the lyrics.

But then Cao Zhiqiang thought about it again and again, and felt that he still kept the song, and the lyrics did not change.

The reason is that he feels that this song, which is free and easy, but the core is promoting "I love you but love freedom more", seems to have some kind of PUA ability, which is especially suitable for himself...... The woman listened.

There is no way, because of various force majeure reasons, Cao Zhiqiang finally embarked on the road of the harem.

Of course he knew that this was a Shura field, even if he had given these women good material conditions, the women he provoked were not ordinary people.

I have known an old book friend for ten years to recommend a book-chasing app,! It's really easy to use, driving, before going to bed rely on this reading aloud to pass the time, you can download it here.. 】

Others are fine, but Jin Xiuying and Yu Yuanyuan are both time bombs.

Especially Yu Yuanyuan, although she relied on Hao Shuwen's method to finally calm down, it seems that there is no big problem for the time being.

But after all, it's a time bomb, and who knows when she will change her mind.

Later, she thought about it and felt that the matter between men and women should still be attacked.

To put it bluntly, it is necessary to do a good job of PUA.

In other words, it is necessary for Jin Xiuying and women like Yu Yuanyuan to make a change, or sublimation, in their love.

Find a way to make them think that they are a prodigal son who is born uninhibited and loves freedom.

If you want to catch such a prodigal son who is born uninhibited and loves freedom, you can't want to monopolize this man like ordinary women.

Instead, we must tolerate this man's uninhibited and romantic with a loving and tolerant heart, and tolerate this man's other women.

Only in this way can we stay by this man's side forever, not be hated by this man, and be together happily forever.

The key here is to let people know that he, Cao Zhiqiang, is a prodigal son with unparalleled talent.

Only when a woman first decides that you are a prodigal son who is not bad in nature will she take a tolerant attitude towards the fact that you have stepped on several boats, and then the PUA can continue.

is like Xu Damao, he was the villain from the beginning, so he spent his time provoking a lot of women, everyone was not surprised, and they didn't think it was a problem.

For example, Qin Jingru, when she was with Xu Damao, didn't she know that Xu Damao hooked up with other women?

She actually knows it, but even so, she still tried her best to fight for Xu Damao, isn't it just that Xu Damao is rich.

Of course, women like Yu Yuanyuan and Jin Xiuying are not as superficial as Qin Jingru, but they are also women who are deeply influenced by traditional thoughts, and a little transformation should allow them to ignore Cao Zhiqiang's shortcomings, and then focus on his many advantages.

Therefore, with Song Mingzhi, only let these women think that his Cao Zhiqiang's heart is a matter of uninhibited love and freedom, not a matter of personal moral character, then they will weigh the trade-offs and finally make a choice like "what else can I do, of course forgive".

On the contrary, if you create a single-minded and infatuated character from the beginning, it is easy for other women to have some unrealistic ideas, and then want to monopolize him Cao Zhiqiang by various means, which will be a bad thing.

In short, out of his own careful thinking, the song "Journey" was also added as it was, which can be regarded as a consummation and a hint.

Cao Zhiqiang believes that with this hint, the woman next to him will definitely "forgive" him.

As for what outsiders think, it's easy to do, and the lyrics don't say anything specifically, there can be a lot of explanations, and it's not a problem.

Anyway, Cao Zhiqiang is thinking, at least in this era, Cao Zhiqiang's set of songs is guaranteed to be able to beat the domestic people who have just changed to the north, completely immerse themselves in it, and really get some insights and strength from it.

After all, the domestic public in this era has just woken up from the isolation, and has not been bombarded with too much information, and it is relatively simple.

At the same time, this is a time of change, and everyone is hungry for change, for a new life, for a better life.

And the songs in the album "Blooming Life" can just meet the spiritual needs of the public at this time.

In addition, this album can also be said to be Cao Zhiqiang's autobiography.

Because Cao Zhiqiang was indeed a social gangster in the past, and he is now a famous poet and the president of a publishing house.

With this stark contrast, it's a good story.

As long as you polish his personal growth experience, then this personal growth story can bring a lot of deeper connotations to the song.

This not only reassures some outsiders who doubt that he has changed quickly.

can also be used to make everyone more curious about him, quickly start his popularity Cao Zhiqiang, and by the way, bring this album to the fire.

The only bad thing is that in this way, he may have to show up and take the star route first, which is inconsistent with his original intention of low-key development.

But then he figured it out.

I want money, but I also want to be low-key, where are there so many good things.

If you want to, you can't.

If you want to make money by singing, you have to be famous first.

And the star halo can also bring a lot of benefits, so that he will have a lot less obstacles when doing things in the future.

As for the disadvantages of celebrities' lack of privacy, at least in this era, being a celebrity can still have a little privacy, and there will not be a large number of crazy fans.

Because of the songs in the album "Blooming Life", Cao Zhiqiang is ready-made, and the interpretation of these songs is relatively simple, some simple songs, he can play and sing by himself with the guitar, which is particularly trouble-free.

Of course, it is not troublesome to record the master tape in the sound engineer, and the eleven songs on the entire album take a total of four or five days.

The later reproduction of the album tape did not require him to do it himself, it was the business of the tape factory.

The direction in which Cao Zhiqiang is really busy these days is something that many people don't expect.

The thing is that he is busy preparing for the film.

A movie he wrote and acted in!
