Chapter 345: CCTV Interview

Liang Yan didn't like this kind of opportunistic commentary, never responded to the bullet comments, and thought it would die down in a couple of days.

But what Liang Yan didn't expect was that, after two days, Gao Jun brought another notice.

"CCTV has a program that wants to interview you; do you want to take it?"

Liang Yan was startled: "CCTV?"

"Yeah, a program on the financial channel."

"What exactly will they interview about?"

"I'm not sure about the details, but I checked the email and it's definitely from CCTV. Boss Lu's advice is that, whether for your personal development or our team's image, this interview can be taken; maybe the ratings aren't high, but you know some things, after all, it's official media..."

Gao Jun advised gently and softly, analyzing the pros and cons for Liang Yan.

Liang Yan turned over many thoughts in his mind, yet he was somewhat hesitant.

Financial channel...

Could it be that my identity as Eastern Buffett has been exposed!

But after thinking, I feel it's unlikely.

Although his stock transaction records are transparent to the relevant authorities, even if there really were a problem, the first to come knocking would certainly be the securities-related department, and his account would definitely be frozen before any measures were taken against him.

However, Liang Yan has not received any abnormal alerts so far.

Liang Yan also opened the securities app on his phone to check; indeed, it was normal.

Moreover, after being reminded by Ka Lao Si, he occasionally deliberately makes a few losing trades to make his trading record less terrifying.

Thinking this through, Liang Yan basically ruled out that CCTV came looking for him because of stock‑trading related matters; besides that, he had nothing to worry about.

"Sure, when?"

"Roughly in the next two or three days."

"Should I go over there?"

"They'll come to our base with a team; we don't need to prepare anything, just tidy up the environment."

"OK."

In his previous life, Liang Yan almost broke into the upper class from the middle class, but never got a chance to appear on CCTV; he never expected that after finally winning a championship, CCTV would come to him on its own.

Of course, there's certainly a factor of higher‑level policy promotion; after all, so far he's the only one in the LPL to have won an S‑series championship, and S7 is being held in China, so picking a typical case for publicity is quite normal.

Liang Yan also deliberately went to get a haircut.

Afraid of being harassed at an ordinary barbershop, he specially chose a high‑end one, the cost being that he got a 9999‑point card just for a haircut—absolutely ridiculous.

However, it's not really a waste; Liang Yan signed a one‑year contract with VG, so he'll definitely stay in Shanghai for at least a year, meaning he'll have to come back anyway—after all, a guy can't just get a haircut once a year; over a year he'd need three or four cuts, which would roughly break even.

When the haircut began, Liang Yan specifically instructed the stylist to give him a neat hairstyle, and he pulled out his phone to show the stylist—who looked somewhat like a young Xiao Chunyu from Shan Cheng—a picture of the hairstyle he had found in advance, asking the stylist to follow it.

The stylist leaned in for a look and saw it was just an ordinary short back and sides; he froze, looked up at the mirror, and although the client was wearing a mask, one could tell from the exposed eyes and skin that he was a handsome guy, and he exclaimed in surprise:

"Are you sure you want it cut like this?"

"Yeah."

The mysterious handsome‑guy client nodded.

"Uh… okay."

Anyway, the card has already been made.

The customer is god!

The stylist tossed aside the small scissors, picked up an electric clipper, and got to work.

Still, countless doubts and curiosity bubbled up in his mind.

Since he already had a hairstyle in mind that wasn't hard to cut, he could just go to any street‑side stall; why spend several thousand? Is it just because he's rich and can do whatever he wants?

However, one advantage of the high‑end salon is that the staff generally have high professionalism; even if dying of curiosity, the stylist wouldn't utter a word, and it was clear that this masked client didn't like to talk, remaining silent throughout.

After it was done, Liang Yan checked himself in the mirror, was quite satisfied, and said thank you.

From entering the shop to getting the card and paying, then leaving, they exchanged fewer than ten sentences in total.

The life of the rich is just so ordinary and unremarkable.

Meanwhile, while Liang Yan was getting his haircut, his teammates were streaming from the base, and sharp‑eyed viewers noticed a few extra red flags in the training room; when asked, Fu Lan Duo directly spilled the beans:

"Oh, that—Boss Lu cares about face, so he specially put this up to welcome an official media team; you can think of it as an image project."

"It's a CCTV program, coming to interview Little‑Foot Brother."

VG's fans (actually brought by the players) erupted again.

Holy shit, CCTV!

Wow, impressive!

Fu Lan Duo was still speaking when Liang Yan came back.

At that moment he had taken off his mask, happened to hear Fu Lan Duo's last sentence, and rushed over to kick the back of her chair:

"Are you scheming against me again?"

Fu Lan Duo didn't need to turn around to know who it was, but she turned her head anyway and saw:

"Holy crap! Your hairstyle..."

Although with his good looks he could never be called ugly (see Chen Lao Shi's buzz cut), frankly speaking, it's a bit… well, Fu Lan Duo is a little jealous.

This hairstyle really only a truly handsome guy can pull off; if an ordinary person cut it like that, a merely handsome guy would drop straight to an average face, while someone who isn't handsome would…

Everyone hearing the sound turned their heads, and immediately started gossiping nonstop.

Even the Marquis wore a face full of surprise:

"Liang Yan, your hairstyle… is really cool."

Roughly like this, drawn with the built‑in Paint of Windows 11.

That day, Lu Wenjun called in a housekeeping team to give the entire base a thorough cleaning, leaving no corner untouched, making it spotless and neat; the snacks and figurines piled on the tables in the training room were all packed into suitcases and shoved under the dormitory beds, and then many high‑end, grandiose decorations were bought back, starting from the base gate and decorating all the way until the whole base was filled with a red atmosphere.

After the drumming, even VG's own people walking in the base couldn't help but march with vigor, posture upright, expression solemn; each person bore a look of righteous vigor.

……

January 6.

Fist simultaneously released the seventh episode of 'Legendary Prosperity' on global platforms — Champion Dream·Final Chapter.

This episode focuses on G2, and the combined screen time of Perkz and Liang Yan exceeds 70% of the documentary's runtime.

That afternoon, the Central Television program team arrived at VG Ji Di.

Lu Wenjun brought VG's management team and all members, standing at the base gate to welcome.

Welcome!

The leader of the Central Television team glanced up at the two fresh, bright red flags standing on either side of the base gate, and could barely keep a straight face.

What's this……

Fu Lan Duo behind him whispered to the Marquis:

I'll say it, we're being too solemn, the scene's too big and it's scared people.

The tall, slender Marquis, who could serve as a flagpole, wore a solemn expression, but his mind was working on whether Fu Lan Duo had used the idiom 'being too solemn' correctly.
