Entertainment: Is this how you play music?!

Chapter 295 A talk show invitation: The art of direct offense.

Just accept it as soon as you see fit.

They should wait for the crucial moment to act, rather than repeatedly raising suspicion with minor assistance.

Making a fortune silently is the way to go.

"We can capitalize on this wave of popularity. There's no need to stay out of the public eye. We need to engage in normal business collaborations. Otherwise, people will easily think that we deliberately staged this concert."

Li Can clapped his hands lightly.

Everyone agreed with his suggestion.

What do you do after becoming famous with a Grammy? You definitely do concerts to boost popularity and further increase your commercial value.

So what's the point of holding a concert?

Isn't it just about connecting with future business collaborations and getting more screen time for a series of business operations?

Keeping a low profile at this time would actually be detrimental.

It's easy to give people the misconception that "DP band just holds concerts, and the purpose of holding concerts is not to make money."

If not making money, then what?
Considering the enormous speed of the lighthouse, it's hard not to have impure thoughts.

If one remains silent and focuses solely on making money...

That would leave no reason or excuse for anyone to believe it. This huge commotion would make it seem like a coincidence, and at least, no one would focus their attention on Li Can and the band.

It's simply because DP is so popular; it has nothing to do with scheming or plotting. DP doesn't have that much brains.

That way, one can escape unscathed.

"We need to give more exposure to the domestic entertainment industry, at least to show that we are making great strides in it. On the one hand, this gives companies like Warner some business incentives, and on the other hand, it expresses our desire to promote the progress of the domestic industry through the trend of music globalization, using professionalism to cover up other ulterior motives."

"It's best not to focus on overseas markets. Otherwise, trying to increase the stickiness of overseas fans at such a sensitive time can easily attract attention and make you a thorn in the side of some people. There's no need to cause trouble at this time."

Li Can's words earned him a thumbs-up from everyone in their hearts.

Negative.

It's too cloudy.

It's all a routine.

"Although it's just a pretense of vigorously developing the domestic entertainment industry, just for show, Brother Can, do you know that if we put on this kind of show, the domestic entertainment industry might be terrified?"

Lin Feng nodded seriously and looked at Li Can with a solemn expression.

DP's main commercial footprint is largely in China, but overall, their overseas revenue is actually the highest.

After all, the domestic band culture is really not popular and its development is limited. If it weren't for DP's immense popularity internationally, its classic works, and its expertise in creating entertaining content, it would be very difficult for them to achieve their current level of popularity and influence.

Therefore, the competition for domestic resources has always been a key issue.
There was almost no competition.

Chun Chun's success is simply a self-sustaining cycle achieved through the mutual complementarity of her domestic and international fan base and her popularity.

The impact on the Chinese entertainment industry is at most a "ripple effect".

Even so, many singers in the Chinese entertainment industry are feeling the pressure and are finding it hard to breathe.

The potential for popularity is decent, but it occasionally gets crushed.

But what if DP really adopts a stance of primarily developing their career in the country?
Just as Lin Feng said.

It could really scare people to death.

"What can we do?"

Li Can curled his lip indifferently.

His expression showed a slight hint of regret.

"Big things have to give way to small things, so the entertainment industry will just have to suffer."

"We're a big company, let them bear with it."

"Okay, okay, good for you to just bear with it."

Lin Feng exclaimed that it was brilliant and couldn't help but applaud.

"Then tell me, which variety show is the hottest in the Chinese entertainment industry right now? We can do them in batches, or we can do them all at once. It would be best if we could do them all."

Li Can stood up and stretched.

He flipped through the documents on the table.

It's been quite a while since I've researched the Chinese entertainment industry, so it feels somewhat unfamiliar.

I have this restless urge to go back to the starting village.

"There aren't any really popular variety shows right now. They're mostly traditional variety show formats, with a few online variety shows occasionally. However, according to Lao Wang, Tencent has developed a new track: talk shows."

"It imitates the format of European and American stand-up comedy, but it features stand-up comedians and celebrity guests appearing together. Four stand-up comedians are regulars, and two celebrities make guest appearances. They use jokes to tease each other in a hilariously explosive way, including their own scandals."

Winnie handed the document to Li Can.

Everyone's eyes immediately turned to Winnie.

Throughout the years, the only people who have been doing business with the company have been Li Can and Winnie.

"Hmm, that's fine too."

Li Can nodded as he took the document.

"Is it okay to joke about scandals? Do other agencies agree to that?"

"Of course I agree, but only with what has been exposed."

Winnie raised an eyebrow.

"After all, their slogan is that stand-up comedy is an art of offense and shouldn't be taken seriously. Turning scandals into entertainment might even help them clear their names."

"Got it. Stand-up comedy is about first making fun of yourself, and then making fun of each of the guests one by one."

"Offend? Offend is good! I'm the best at offending."

Li Can nodded repeatedly.

Anyway, whatever it is, this stand-up comedy looks like it's going to cause trouble, and there's a good chance it will turn into a bloodbath.

How could I not go?!
"Are you all coming together?"

Li Can had barely uttered the question when everyone present instinctively waved their hands in unison.

"No, no, no! We're not going! You go by yourself, Chan-ge!"

"Yes, we can't handle this kind of social interaction, so we'll leave it to Brother Can."

"That's right, loose lips sink ships, and only the best are qualified to be in positions of power."

"Yes, yes, Brother Can, only you can handle this."

Who couldn't see that Li Can was interested?
No abstract concepts, no explosive effects.

How can it be!

If you go there, you're very likely to encounter an explosion, so it's better to stay away.

"The problem now is, Brother Chan, it's worrying that you're on this kind of show."

Chen Gang rubbed his chin, and couldn't help but glance at Li Can with a questioning look.

"I've always thought that Brother Can has two skills: [Using his ultimate skill at close range] and [Starting with zero frames]. Now that you're going, wow, the DP band will make countless enemies, and it's definitely going to be a hot topic."

"Hmm, that's very possible. If Chan-ge is this abstract when he's not talking, wouldn't he be even more abstract once he starts speaking?"

Lin Feng nodded and looked at Li Can.

"Why don't you skip it, Chan-ge? Let's give the younger members some privacy."

"Alright, alright, I'll ask Lao Wang to arrange it tonight. I absolutely have to go on this show. I'm going to diss you guys right through the screen."

"No, Brother Chan!"

"Hehe, I don't care if you diss me, I just want to see Can diss Feng."

Everyone burst into laughter.

As for whether or not a spot can be obtained.
No one had really thought of that.

Given DP's popularity and fame, no variety show could possibly refuse even one of their members.

This is the perfect opportunity to legitimately ride on the coattails of the DP band's popularity.

If you manage to get on board, that's like taking off; how could any variety show possibly refuse?
All Lao Wang needs to do is reveal a little inside information to the variety show about how "Li Can seems quite interested in your program".

The variety show production team can then immediately arrange everything clearly and precisely.

That's exactly what happened.

The talk show variety show produced by Tencent is only one month away from recording.

The recording will be released in installments, and it won't take too long.

However, with the candidate basically finalized and the final confirmation process underway, Wang Yongchang only had a brief chat with the Tencent executive.
Eh?
Suddenly, there were extra guest slots available on the show.

As for how many more there are, Tencent doesn't know either.

It wasn't until they fought Li Can that Tencent finally realized what was going on.

Ow.

There was an extra empty seat.

so amazing!
then.

Li Can was then naturally placed in the recording of the talk show, without any surprises.

Since the recording time is still early.

Li Can is not in a hurry and is still preparing for the next tour.

The other members of the band, in addition to the performance content, also began to research various commercial opportunities after the tour ended.

The production team continued their work as usual, and Li Can's cutting in line did not disrupt the overall workflow.

This information was only revealed to the artists and guests who participated in the recording of this episode.

But obviously.

It was just the news that "Li Can participated in a talk show as a guest".

This caused the emotions of the show's guests to fluctuate wildly, like riding a rollercoaster.

I was both excited and nervous.

The good news is that by riding on the coattails of the "big dad" trend, they unexpectedly became famous.

The bad news is that dealing with the demons of the Chinese entertainment industry is extremely risky; one wrong move and it'll all explode.

In particular, another celebrity guest in this episode is actor Zhu Ziwen.

Li Can didn't really care who the guests were; it didn't matter who they were, there was no need to worry too much. When she learned that another celebrity guest was Zhu Ziwen, she didn't have any extra reaction at all, and didn't even know who this person was.

But Zhu Ziwen felt completely differently; with Li Can around, that was his biggest worry.

After being subjected to layers of demonization within the industry, Zhu Ziwen's legs trembled when he learned that the other guest was Li Can.

They say stand-up comedy is an offensive art.

Try to relax.

Bold entertainment.

Zhu Ziwen originally had the courage to do something outrageous, but that courage only lasted until he found out that the guest was Li Can.

That's Li Can!
How could I possibly offend you?!
Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well jump into the river myself!
"Maru spicy!"

Zhu Ziwen's face was deathly pale.

She hugged her manager tightly and began to wail.

"Why did I even participate in this show?! I'm too scared to say a word! Maybe I should at least prepare a public relations campaign to make it seem boring and tedious! I just want to survive!"

".well."

The agent remained silent, only sighing repeatedly.

It's clear that the agent has also lost their composure.
