Chapter 2462 "Larry King's Scene"

Chen Kangjie's New York concert achieved unprecedented success. The next day, all local media reported on his grand performance in important pages and time periods.

"LONG Tornado", "The Charm of Chinese Culture brought by LONG", "Mysterious Cultural Mysterious Man", "Stunning Performance with Oriental Charm", "Return of LONG", "Unsolved Mystery of LONG", "Unsolved Mystery of New York", "Unextrous Performance"...

All the media titles are positive and praised at first glance. Media reporters used various gorgeous rhetoric to describe his performance, which finally made the fans who failed to enter the venue feel itchy and urged Feiyang Entertainment to let this record be released as soon as possible.

In addition to helping Chen Kangjie promote her, the media unanimously handed over the interview application to Feiyang Entertainment and Miramax. They all hoped to visit Chen Kangjie while she still had time in the United States.

With this popularity, Chen Kangjie can accept interviews, that is, sales and ratings. No matter whether there is a possibility or not, every media will not miss this opportunity.

Faced with so many interview applications, Chen Kangjie could not agree, but he did not refuse them all. In the end, he chose to join CNN's "Larry King Live".

Larry King is one of the most famous hosts in the United States. The "Larry King Live" hosted by him is also one of the most watched talk show in the United States.

Chen Kangjie is willing to go to the news media, and one purpose is to promote the historical musical he will launch next.

However, due to CNN's ideological tendency, some unpleasant episodes appeared in this interview, but such episodes actually made the ratings of this program hit a new high.

"LONG, thank you very much for and welcome you to "Larry King Live". First of all, I would like to congratulate you on your successful performance in New York. Although I did not come to the scene, every friend who comes to me told me that it was an unforgettable performance for life."

"Thank you, I didn't expect that it would be like that. The audience's reaction was indeed a bit beyond my expectations." Chen Kangjie sat obliquely opposite Larry Jin and said steadily.

The host looked very energetic, but he was actually seventy years old.

In the United States, excellent and popular hosts are basically not young. They have deep experience and life accumulation, and are rich in experience, which may become one of the important conditions for their popularity. In China, not to mention seventy-year-old hosts, fifty-year-old hosts are very rare. Basically, every TV station focuses on handsome men and beautiful women.

It’s not that handsome men and beautiful women are not good, they look pleasing to the eye, but if they are the main force, they will appear shallow from the side.

As a media, especially a television media with outstanding communication, the breadth of vision and cultural depth must be discussed. If you rely only on some brilliant gimmicks, although the ratings can be increased for a while, the value of its society will definitely be subject to some kind of limitation.

"LONG, you focus on Chinese culture in this concert. Even for some English songs, you use Chinese culture as the background. Why is this happening? Although we know that Chinese culture has a history of thousands of years, in our intuitive impression, Chinese culture is conservative and separated from the times." Larry King's words are sharp in the softness.

"No, Mr. Larry Jin, you may not have any understanding of Chinese culture, or have not had any in-depth contact with them. In fact, Chinese culture is not conservative. A truly conservative thing cannot last for thousands of years and remain unchanged. Why only Chinese civilizations in the world have continued to this day continuously? This can illustrate the problem. In addition, my performance is also an example. You don't think that most of the audiences in the audience will be Chinese, right? Most of them are Americans, or they are Westerners in a broader range. They can tell you that this performance will be unforgettable for life, which is the best argument. My performance did not use Western musical instruments, costumes and dances, and it is mainly based on Chinese characteristics. Of course, in order to adapt to young people and Western aesthetics, I have made some processing and changes, but the core is still with the genes of Chinese culture." Chen Kangjie responded confidently.

"Do you hope to promote Chinese culture in this way or promote your soft power?" Larry King's question sounds very ordinary and not offensive, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that there are traps, especially the three words "soft power" mentioned.

When talking about these three words specifically, what Chen Kangjie did was an offensive behavior. Even if Chen Kangjie's purpose was like that, he would not publicly admit it in the media.

"I don't know why you have such an understanding. Cultural exchange is the basis and core of all communications in the world. I am a Chinese, and the blood flowing from my blood vessels is the Yanhuang bloodline. I just show the innate cultural content I have to my fans and fans. From the past, I absorb and promote Western culture on the one hand, which can be felt from my movies, music, and books. On the other hand, I also want those who like me to know more about the environment in which I live and the historical and cultural context they inherit. I think this is a natural thing. I even think that I am enhancing the mutual understanding and understanding between Chinese and Western peoples. The harmony and peace of the world do not exist only among politicians. In fact, it exists in each of us. My identity like this is a responsibility to promote Chinese culture, just like I let many Eastern people know and understand Western culture." Chen Kangjie's explanation or rebuttal is neither soft nor hard, and is reasonable, beneficial and moderate.

"Isn't culture a part of soft power? Or isn't it a carrier of soft power? LONG, don't you think so?" Larry King continued to ask with a smile.

"Yes, of course, but our focus is not the same. Just like my ancestors invented gunpowder, we mainly used it in celebrations, but after learning from the West, it used it in weapons, making it a tool for mass murder. We invented the compass, which only allowed us to find our way home, but the West used it as a skill of aggression. Strictly speaking, there is no difference between strength and hardness, and strength is hard, economic strength, political strength, military strength, and even cultural strength. These things have no purpose to shrink themselves.
