The opening of China Entertainment Group gave Jay Chou a head-on confrontation

Chapter 746: Encountering a strong enemy, unable to defeat

Not only Zheng Yuhao, except for a few people in Warner Records who already knew the content of Zhou Yi's new album, other singers were stunned when they heard this song -

No bro, is this really a song from your new album?

Are you sure it's not written based on public opinion?
Sometimes, you really can’t blame people for thinking too much, after all, Zhou Yi has a previous record.

This bastard can really write people into songs and whip their corpses over and over again.

“I know what is right and what is wrong, and I know that what the general said may not be right.
“I know what is right and what is wrong. I can tell the difference myself.

"Please be quiet, please be quiet, yeah~"

There is no MV, just the song playing. Zhou Yi's powerful voice when singing this song has a more playful and mocking feeling than usual.

Even though there were no visual images, combined with the name of the new album he had seen in the Xinhua Bookstore before, Zheng Yuhao instantly imagined the scene where Zhou Yi raised his index finger to signal silence to those people when he sang this part.

"I know what's right and what's wrong, I know the moon is not rounder in foreign countries
"I know yo yo yo is not my language
"Please be quiet, please be quiet~"

If the first verse of the lyrics just makes people uncertain, then the second verse is completely straight to the point - in the song it even grabs the faces of those public intellectuals and slaps them left and right, telling them, and at the same time telling everyone: the moon in foreign countries is really not rounder than the moon in China.

As we all know, in the domestic media industry, chasing after and yearning for Western popular concepts is a trend.

As long as it is from the Western world, it must be the best——

"The general follows fashion, he is covered in bling bling
"Learning to chant sutras like Westerners, I forgot my husband's name.
"They kept saying check out, they wanted him to get out
"I am just a soldier, but I am optimistic and content with my fate!"

As there was no lyrics booklet attached to the album, Zheng Yuhao had to listen to the song over and over again to ensure that he could copy down all the lyrics completely in his notebook - as a representative of the Chinese class, his Chinese composition scores often cited the Book of Changes as examples.

Now, he feels that he has made the right choice in following this idol, Zhou Yi is simply so cool!
What new album song? It’s pure bullshit. This is a song Zhou Yi wrote when he was forced into a corner by public opinion!

Even if the king of heaven comes, it is also written in Zhouyi!

"I was saying that Zhou Yi had no news about his new album before, but suddenly he started to warm up with an album pre-release single "General's Order". Is it really a pre-release?"

"No problem, first come first served."

"As expected, all artists need to be inspired by hardship. Zhou Yi has been playing around since returning to China, and he was forced to come up with a new song."

"This is still the hip-hop style that Zhou Yi likes to use the most when he debuted. The fusion is so great. He is simply a genius!"

"Fuck, someone come and scold Zhou Yi! If he scolds him more, maybe he will finish a whole album in a few days!"

"What the above person said makes sense..."

Due to the uniqueness and popularity of the ringback tone, after China Mobile launched this song, countless people downloaded it as a ringback tone.

This is really the domestic music version of "give me one or two dollars per person".

This thing is cheaper than the cheapest pirated tape!
Pirated tapes cost at least seven or eight bucks, and sometimes it all depends on luck whether you can listen to the tapes, and you also need a machine to play them.

Ringback tone: just need a mobile phone.

Zhou Yi's huge popularity directly washed away the mobile pool at this moment. After several years of accumulated popularity and attention from the previous verbal battles, the wild record of cutting 1600 million RMB in one day silenced the entire music industry!

At this moment, freedom of speech is no longer important.

Why, you ask?
That is, Zhou Yi has responded to everything with the song "General's Order" - learning to chant scriptures like Westerners and forgetting your own husband's surname!

"Strong counterattack! Zhou Yi speaks with his works!"

People should never forget their roots

On the Chaos in the Media Industry

"..."

On the 6th, along with the release of Zhou Yi's new song, Warner released the offline press release that had been communicated long ago, sounding the clarion call for counterattack. This was originally a commercial act, until several major official media including the Youth Daily all expressed their opinions on this song in a rare move.

At this very moment, when even that man could not escape being attacked on a large scale, even if Zhou Yi had eight minutes to protect himself, it was just a talisman.

Freedom of speech is a card currently played by the Western world, led by the United States, and there are so many eyes watching you from behind.

Blacksmith need its own hardware.

Zhou Yi created the vortex himself, so he has to rely on his own ability to get over it so that the people behind him can seize the opportunity to exit without being criticized by outsiders.

Moreover, internal investigations also take time. When Zhou Yi took out the song "General's Order", the special meaning made even Dong Yuyu, deputy editor-in-chief of the commentary department of Guangming Daily, hesitate for a moment.

Because he heard some rumors through his own channels, Cheng Yizhong and Zhang Ping seemed to be targeted by the investigation team that secretly entered Southern Metropolis Daily.

For a moment, he couldn't tell whether Zhou Yi was the bait released by the authorities. As long as he took the bait, he would immediately write his name on the list and start an investigation.

As for Zhou Yi himself, he didn't know about this yet -

At present, he still has to explain the incident of being "backstabbed" by Warner.

"Actually, I didn't write this song on purpose. Or rather, I didn't write it just now, but I had the idea long before, when I was cursing the colonials in front of the media in Hong Kong."

On the 6th, Zhou Yi appeared at China Mobile's celebration party and just as he explained the reason for the song "General's Order", on the morning of the 7th, Warner released the date of the actor audition for Zhou Yi's new song MV on its official website.

"General Order".

Normally, as a new song, it is normal for other singers to have no MV for "General's Order", but it is very abnormal for Zhou Yi.

He has never lacked MVs for his songs, even for EP albums.

"General's Order" is the only song of his so far that was released without even shooting a MV. The recruitment of actors for the MV even started to appear on Warner's official website one day after the song was released.

This further confirms the rumor that this song was forced out by current public opinion.

For a time, people seemed to see through this song a Zhou Yi who was forced into a corner by public opinion and wrote the song with tears in his eyes, just to express to the world that he was doing nothing wrong.

“Is this character too broken?”

Zhou Yi glanced at Cheng Hao, who had given him clear arrangements, with a strange expression on his face. His thinking was developing quite quickly.

“It’s called contrast.”

Cheng Hao smiled slightly: "The stronger you appear to be on the outside, the more people want to see your broken and weak side in private, which can well satisfy their inner needs."

"..."

That's damn right.

Then Zhou Yi started to work.

In response to Li Yanhong's post, he once again made a sharp comment:

“If you stand on the right vent, even a pig can fly to the sky.

"Baidu will sooner or later fall behind in the hands of a short-sighted person like you. In less than 15 years, Baidu will be ruined in your hands."

Li Yanhong: “…”

If the tiger doesn't show its might, do you really think I'm a sick cat? !

However, a piece of news from the board of directors made him stunned for a moment -

"Something's wrong. Little Edgar and his men are trying to sabotage our listing plan. What's wrong with you? Don't mess with Spike! Listing is more important!"

? ? ? ?
Damn me! ! !
Li Yanhong, who had been doing smoothly since his successful entrepreneurship, felt for the first time that he was feeling powerless as if someone was strangling him.

The outward manifestation is that the previously aggressive Baidu suddenly became timid.

Even the MP3 lawsuit was willing to be settled out of court.

Only Cheng Yizhong and Zhang Ping were left staring at each other.

Something seems to be wrong.

Just when the two wanted to find out the situation, a call from the procuratorate made Cheng Yixin fall to the bottom.

"Your case from August has been reopened, but it has to be transferred to the Imperial Capital Court."

"???"

What the hell!

Then I can still live?!

On November 2004, 11, Cheng Yizhong, the editor-in-chief of Southern Metropolis Daily, and Zhang Ping, the deputy editor-in-chief, who had just taken office for a month, were fired for corruption and other crimes. The three major newspapers, Southern Weekend, Southern Metropolis Daily, and Southern Daily, were investigated.

The first major purge of senior management is about to begin.
