Lu Yan was very confident about winning the championship, because he later secretly tested it and found that running at full speed, he could run 100 meters in a little over eight seconds.
Coupled with his super endurance, if it were placed in ancient times, he would be a "magical Taibao"!
In fact, when he first entered school, he even thought about participating in a city marathon to get a prize!
I remembered that the prize money was very high, but after asking around, I found out that there were not many cities hosting marathons in 2005 and 2006, and the prize money was very limited, so I gave up the idea.
After strolling back to the building, Lu Yan and Ruan Xiaoxiao went back to their respective companies. They were on different floors of the same building, making it convenient to meet and go back and forth.
The next few days were busy with work and training as usual.
And Jiangnan Satellite TV has also begun to broadcast "Legend of Sword and Fairy III" in prime time.
After Cai Yinong bought "Not a Hero", he placed it as the ending song and asked Hu Ge to shoot a MV and upload it to Tudou Video.
However, netizens who are very clever used Hu Ge's version of the sound source to make several video clips of costumed male gods. These include Jiao Anjun's version of Li Xunhuan, Xie Tingfeng's version of Hua Wuque, and Ma Jingtao's version of Lu Dongbin.
The chic and heroic postures in ancient costumes, coupled with the appropriate music, have greatly increased the number of clicks on these short videos, and they are actually more popular than Hu Ge's original MV.
However, these are still relatively niche, and those few are a bit older.
With the popularity of "Sword and Sword III", the most popular period costume actor in China is none other than Hu Ge.
However, as the plot progressed and Yun Ting, played by Lu Yan, appeared, the situation became somewhat different.
Lu Yan's original appearance can only be said to be good-looking for ordinary people, and he is more pleasing to the eye.
With the "Self-Strengthening Life System", through long-term exercise, he has grown taller and fine-tuned his facial appearance, turning him into a handsome guy with outstanding appearance.
Coupled with the fact that he is self-made and has assets worth billions, he suddenly looks very charming.
The reason is very simple. Wang Sicong is not a handsome guy in the traditional sense, but many girls think he is handsome.
The CEO of the investment banking department of Orient Securities once complained that Ma Yun looked like an alien and spoke more like an alien.
However, after a few years, many netizens feel that Ma Yun is actually quite handsome.
This is the halo of the protagonist!
With the broadcast of "Sword and Sword III", not only Yang Mi's fame has skyrocketed, but also Lu Yan, who only made a few guest appearances, has also skyrocketed in fame.
If Xinlang Weibo hadn't been launched yet, Lu Yan would have had a huge increase in the number of followers, and by extension, his Meituan company would have become more well-known, and he would have saved a lot of advertising fees.
In view of this situation, Zhou Xiaoqing suggested taking this opportunity to shoot a new commercial. Lu Yan had no objection to this.
After the orderer contacted Yang Mi, the other party had no objection.
As for the specific advertising plan, given that the fame of Lu Yan and Yang Mi has skyrocketed, and they had a fake marriage scene in "Sword and Sword III".
The advertising company suggested making a short advertising video about two people interacting as a couple in a group purchase. After the design was sent over, Lu Yan saw that there was nothing wrong with it, so the filming started.
At this time, Yang Mi's workload has been greatly reduced because his contract is about to expire and he does not plan to renew it.
Lu Yan set a time and she rushed over in advance.
After getting off the plane, she found someone from Meituan coming to pick her up, and casually asked, "Where is Mr. Lu?"
"Mr. Lu didn't come to the company because of something, so he should call you later!"
Yang Mi didn't think about anything else. In the evening, Lu Yan and Ruan Xiaoxiao invited Yang Mi to dinner. This person asked, "What have you been busy with recently?"
Lu Yan said: "Various affairs of the two companies, as well as track and field training!"
Yang Mi was confused, "Track and field training? What are you training for?"
Ruan Xiaoxiao said with some pride: "It's right for him to enter the track and field country. He should represent the country and participate in this year's World Track and Field Championships in Berlin!"
Yang Mi heard this and became more and more unbelievable, "You are going to participate in the World Championships. What event are you participating in?"
"sprint!"
"Wow, isn't it? You are incredible! What are your grades?"
"I can almost run under ten seconds!" Lu Yan didn't tell the truth, because the head coach wanted him to make a surprise move.
Fortunately, Yang Mi was not very clear about the concept of running within ten seconds. He only said: "Then, it should be very fast!"
Ruan Xiaoxiao smiled and said: "It's pretty fast. I once went to see him train and it felt like a gust of wind!"
Yang Mi felt that he had no adjectives, and echoed: "Awesome, awesome, you are writing books, practicing martial arts, trading stocks, running a company, singing, acting, and participating in track and field competitions, this is
Become a superman!"
Lu Yanxiao: "What do you mean by being a superman? The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. You just do what you can!"
Yang Mixiao: "Then I wish you good results and bring glory to the motherland!"
"must!"
The meal was eaten quickly. A few people went to the advertising company first, and then went to the shopping mall that had been agreed in advance for advertising shooting.
Because the time is short, it only takes one morning.
It was produced within a few days and broadcast on websites and some satellite TV stations. Lu Yan's fame became even bigger.
But in the following days, controversy arose.
That was on August 2, some netizens discovered that Lu Yan's name was included in the 2009 World Track and Field Championships selection list announced by the Track and Field Center.
A few days later, at the World Track and Field Championships trials held at the Beijing Olympic Sports Center, some spectators spotted Lu Yan.
However, there are no relevant reports in professional media.
All netizens can understand is Lu Yan's name and a blurry photo.
This has aroused the curiosity of netizens.
The following day, a post titled "Lu Yan, the founder of Meituan and the best retail investor in history, will represent the country at the 2009 World Athletics Championships in Berlin" began to circulate online.
Afterwards, many people with knowledge of the matter appeared one after another and confirmed in the thread that some of them were students from the National Central Bank who had seen Lu Yan taking a sprint test at school.
Some people also question why Lu Yan is qualified to represent the country and participate in the World Track and Field Championships, as he is not a professional athlete and has never participated in any influential competitions before, and whether there is any interest in this.
The public hates being concealed the most, and they also love to find out the inside story.
For a time, public opinion on the Internet was fierce.
After consulting with the leaders above, the head coach Feng Shuyong decided to bring Lu Yan to participate in a media interview to quell netizens' speculation.
Of course, the specific words to be spoken were explained in advance.
The main thing is to let Lu Yan hug him and don't talk too much. Although they know Lu Yan's strength and look forward to winning the championship, after all, people won't believe it even if they say it!
If something unexpected happens before the competition and you are unable to participate or the results do not meet expectations, wouldn't it be an exaggeration?
