Unboxing, Director!

Chapter 106 Do you want to try Taiwanese specialties?
"Alan, catch the ball!"

On the basketball court of a gymnasium in Taiwan.

With thousands of fans present, Lu Jiang made a brilliant pass, passing the ball to his teammate Jaylen.

Jaylen received the ball, broke through, and made a layup, which went in.

Suddenly, cheers broke out at the scene.

But it’s not for Jay Chou, but for Lu Jiang.

"Daomingsi is so handsome!"

"Ahhh!"

"Lu Jiang, I love you!!!"

"."

Jay Chou: ???
Jay Chou, who has already released an album, is in a bit of a bad situation.

Just over a month after the album was released, "Meteor Garden" became a hit in Taiwan.

Lu Jiang and F4 are everywhere.

Songwise, "Meteor Shower" is everywhere.

The sales of "Jay" are very good, in fact not much worse than "Meteor Shower".

But looking at the popularity, I really can’t express my suffering.

That’s why the purple “Help to Cheer” treasure chest on Jay Chou’s head did not fall off.

In order to take care of his younger brother, Lu Jiang naturally invited him to Taiwan this time.

Playing together will give him more exposure in areas where he is good at.

The effect is good at the moment. Although the spotlight belongs entirely to Lu Jiang and F3, at least everyone knows that Lu Jiang has a good brother named Jay Chou in Taiwan.

As a result, Jay Chou's popularity increased, and Lu Jiang became more approachable in the eyes of Taiwanese fans.

After all, some media outlets are now saying that Lu Jiang hates Taiwan because of his political stance.

But now, everyone knows that Lu Jiang is the victim. His good brothers are all from Taiwan. Look how close they are. So it was all those people who were causing the trouble.
A simple 5v5 basketball friendly match is over.

Lu Jiang and F3 interact with fans.

The activity is simple, fans are randomly selected to play a basketball shooting game.

Taiwanese fans are indeed very open-minded.

The last time Lu Jiang came, the most everyone said was "I love you". A hug when asking for an autograph was already a step beyond the limit.

Now many are even bold enough to express their desire for a kiss like Mei Zuo in the TV series!

TV dramas are harmful!

Fortunately, Wu Zongxian, who co-hosted the show, was able to control the situation very well.

He directly made a rule that whoever gets first place in the three-point shooting competition will get a kiss from each member of the F4.

The scene was immediately blown away, and everyone wanted to sign up.

But Wu Zongxian just chooses those who seem to have average athletic talent.

In the end, there was no surprise. No female fan was able to achieve the feat of scoring one, so there was no first place.

In order to appease the fans, F4 changed the kiss into a hug, and every fan who participated in the game got one.

During the hug, a bold female fan stole a kiss.

The scene exploded again
After the basketball session, Lu Jiang and his group squeezed back to the hotel to pack up and then started the variety show recording.

Because Wu Dun was the lead this time, the first variety show was unsurprisingly chosen as "Variety Battleship".

This is a program hosted by Wu Zongxian and Jia Jingwen.

The key target among them is Jia Jingwen.

Jia Jingwen is still Wu Dun's person. She has not yet placed her main market in the mainland. In order to support her, Wu Dun will naturally invest the best resources in her.

Jia Jingwen is very enthusiastic, but not in the literal sense.

When they were discussing the script backstage, he would laugh at the slightest thing while chatting, and it seemed like his sense of humour was very low. Then he took the opportunity to pat Lu Jiang's shoulders and thighs.

Lu Jiang didn't pay much attention to this little action, because she was relatively sensible and just patted her without touching her.

Another major reason is that this girl has a green treasure chest on her head:

[Jia Jingwen wants to become close friends with the host and collaborate on works]

【Exceeding the requirements, the treasure chest can be upgraded】

There is a lot of demand, but it is green and the demand is not too high.

It seems that it is Wu Dun's fault.

If Wu Dun hadn't been in the middle, and the two of them had known each other for other reasons, this requirement would probably have to start with blue.

Of course, it is also possible that the other party has extremely high standards and looks down on Lu Jiang.

In any case, Lu Jiang is still quite cautious about this treasure chest. At least it cannot be accepted in Taiwan, even if it is golden.

After all, the trip to Taiwan seems to be smooth, but in fact there are undercurrents. Everyone must keep calm and not let anyone take advantage of the opportunity or leave any handle.

After checking the script, we started recording.

"Variety Battleship" is similar to all variety shows, with various fun games, talent shows, interactive sessions, etc., but nothing particularly new.

The main thing to look at is who the guests are. This time the guests are F4, so even if F4 does nothing, the ratings are guaranteed.

During this period, Lu Jiang also kept his promise and teased the hidden protagonist Jia Jingwen.

In one segment, F4 was asked to choose the Taiwanese actress they were most familiar with.

There were a bunch of celebrity names on the activity board. After being eliminated one by one, only Xiao Qiang and Ruby Lin were left.

The former has more works, while the latter is now a top Taiwanese star due to "My Fair Princess." The others' popularity and works are far behind, so anyone could have chosen these two, and it felt like a free pass. But then Wu Zongxian asked Lu Jiang, which of the two would you most want to be your wife?

From "familiarity" to "being a wife", the theme suddenly changed and became a pit.

Everyone laughed at the scene, and F3 also sold out their teammates in various ways. Lu Jiang showed an expression of being cheated at the right time, and the show effect came out immediately.

Finally, Lu Jiang was helpless. After thinking for a while, he looked at Jia Jingwen affectionately and asked, "Can you add Jia Jingwen?"

The scene suddenly exploded.

The sound of "oh oh oh" never stops.

Wu Zongxian directly pushed Jia Jingwen to Lu Jiang's side: "Okay, choose."

Lu Jiang picked up the microphone and said, "I choose Xiao Qiang."

After a moment of silence, everyone burst into laughter again.

Jia Jingwen also showed a sad expression at the right time.

Wu Zongxian began to speak up for the injustice: "Since you chose Xiao Qiang, why did you drag Jing Wen into it?"

Lu Jiang calmly said: "The main reason is that I don't want Ruby Lin to be at the bottom."

This old joke has become very common in later generations, but it is 2001 after all, and even if you haven't heard it before, it will still have an effect.

The audience was hilarious and the show was a complete blast.

In the end, the "heartbroken" Jia Jingwen was called back by Wu Zongxian, who said that Lu Jiang must be compensated. Lu Jiang also said that there would be a chance to cooperate next time, which paved the way for them.

After the recording of the program was completed, everyone went to have dinner with Wu Dun.

The most talked about topics at the dinner were local customs and routine business matters. Regarding the project, Lu Jiang said that the script of the new drama is still being written, and they will talk about cooperation after it is completed.

Wu Dun also understood what this meant. Cooperation naturally had to be done step by step.

He then showed his sincerity directly and said that he was going to invest in "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" and had already acquired the copyright. Jia Jingwen would be the female lead and he hoped to cooperate in the filming.

This cooperation is of course a capital cooperation, and whether or not to perform is a small matter.

This is a good resource. The Jia Jingwen version of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" has very good ratings and revenue, and is also very good at promoting people.

Lu Jiang said that it was no problem, and confirmed that the new album was already in preparation, and he and Jia Jingwen could collaborate on the MV first, and then discuss the publicity.

What to hype? Of course, moderate scandals.

As I said before, Lu Jiang needs some scandals now to reduce public sensitivity, of course, the premise is that it should be moderate.

Lu Jiang's team has already made a plan for this. Jia Jingwen is just cutting in line, and she will definitely not be the last one.

It goes without saying that being able to create a scandal with Lu Jiang is beneficial to Jia Jingwen.

Wu Dun expressed his satisfaction. The two sides reached a preliminary cooperation just like squeezing toothpaste. As for the future cooperation, it will depend on the results of the preliminary cooperation.

Before leaving, he said directly under the influence of alcohol: "Jingwen, take good care of Lu Jiang."

Jia Jingwen smiled and took Lu Jiang's arm and said, "Don't worry."

Sure enough, I guessed it right.

This is why the treasure chest on Jia Jingwen’s head is green.

Wu Dun took the initiative to send his daughter, and with this level of relationship in place, Jia Jingwen herself knew that it was basically impossible for her and Lu Jiang to achieve a higher level of relationship.

Unless Lu Jiang is a soft-hearted person who is easily deceived and then gets angry for his beloved
However, Jia Jingwen is not familiar with Lu Jiang's personality at the moment, which is why he has the "upgradeable" entry.

But is Lu Jiang that kind of person?
of course not.

"Go back, I'm not drunk."

After everyone left, Lu Jiang was no longer drunk and spoke directly to Jia Jingwen.

Jia Jingwen was stunned at first, and then Lu Jiang's arms were clamped tighter: "You have a good alcohol tolerance. You didn't get drunk after drinking so much."

"It's not easy to get me drunk, and it's even harder to make me make a mistake in Taiwan." Lu Jiang pulled his arm back, and the two rabbits trembled. Jia Jingwen's expression began to show regret, but she didn't give up so easily. She immediately hugged him again, "That's because you haven't tried the special dishes. Do you want to try it?"

"No, it's too windy and rainy here, I'm not interested." Lu Jiang withdrew his arm again.

Jia Jingwen's expression grew even more regretful, but soon her eyes lit up again. She smiled and raised her hand, "Give me your number. I'll come to Singapore to find you."

The last stop of the 9-day trip to Taiwan was a concert.

The third concert of this trip was packed, just like the previous two.

At the concert, Lu Jiang and Jay Chou sang "The Prodigal Son" together. This was Jay Chou's third performance tonight after his solo performance and his duet with Jolin Tsai.

To those who don’t know the truth, Lu Jiang really takes care of this little brother.

But for some people, Jay Chou was sold out and had to help count the money.

But Jay Chou himself is happy. His big brother takes such good care of him. He sings solo and with the "goddess". He has to work harder.

As for what kind of political stance, forget it, let’s become famous first!
So in the Hokkien song "The Prodigal Son Returns", Jay Chou seemed to be working very hard.

"Sweat drips down

One day we all brought someone to play
Lead someone to entertain
Lead someone to entertain
"

The audience below the stage exclaimed “Ahhhhh”.

Then it was "Lu Jiang I love you"

Of course, there are also a lot of "Jay Chou" in the mix.

Jay Chou finally felt relieved, and the purple treasure chest on his head finally fell off.

Lu Jiang's mouth curled up. It wasn't easy, it finally fell.

But he was not in a hurry to open it, and planned to consider it after the break at the end of this period.

After the song, F4 came on stage again and finally ended with "The First Time".

At this point, the trip to Taiwan ended successfully.

The next day, the media in Taiwan were all reporting on F4's popularity, how much money they had made, and that Jia Jing was rumored to be attending their concert, suggesting they were dating.
On the basis of the same reports in the mainland and Taiwan, many media focused on "The Prodigal Son Returns". Many people happily watched Lu Jiang open up on other people's territory, and gave Lu Jiang countless praises in their hearts.
