One person's entertainment

Chapter 122, Hope, Countermeasures
It was expected that "Meet in 98" would be performed on CCTV Spring Festival Gala. There were not many surprises, but it was a happy thing to earn 30 yuan.

As for the variety show in Formosa Province and the Asian superstar’s Tokyo concert, these two were unexpected, but reasonable.

Shen Lingyou's "Spark" sold over 100 million copies in Taiwan Province, and the sales of "Heart Too Soft" and "Shen Lingyou" were also not low. It is only natural that he was invited to do the show.

It seems that the words "Asian superstar" are marked on it, but in fact, major companies use their artists to open up the Japanese market. There are not so many superstars in Asia. The reason why Shen Lingyou appears on the list is because he is popular, has sales in Japan, and is about to release a Japanese album, which can bring attention.

"Yes, my fame is finally starting to build up little by little."

Shen Lingyou smiled happily.

"It's not over yet..." Huo Wenxi's face was filled with joy, and he continued, "The four major award ceremonies, Metro Radio's Hot Awards, the HITS Music Awards, the Jade Solid Gold Awards, and the Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Awards Concert, have all invited you, and you've been nominated for the Newcomer Award. This award is a sure win for you."

"I think so too, haha." Shen Lingyou was not modest in front of her.

This is not confidence, but fact.

From the end of last year to now, he has been leading by a large margin among the newly debuted singers.

The three albums almost sold 1000 million copies and topped the charts for half a year. Even veteran singers couldn't compare to them.

"In addition, I have contacted more than half of the creative team and actors of "Love Across Time and Space", and they are all willing to join. I will contact the rest as soon as possible. It's just that as for funding, since "Never Forget" has not been broadcast yet, the company's strength and your ability have not been demonstrated, so we are all waiting and watching." Huo Wenxi had no better solution.

"I'll take care of the funding." Shen Lingyou already had a plan.

"Okay, I will make your schedule as soon as possible." Huo Wenxi said again.

"Sister Xi..." Shen Lingyou refilled her cup with tea and said softly, "You need to combine work and rest. Don't overwork yourself."

"Thank you." Huo Wenxi picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, then smiled and said, "I'm not tired."

"How about this, you hire an assistant." Shen Lingyou suggested.

"I can handle this workload by myself. I don't need an assistant." Huo Wenxi said confidently.

"Look, you now have to travel to the mainland, Hong Kong, Formosa Province, Japan, and in the future there will be South Korea, Europe and the United States, etc. How can you handle it alone? Bringing an assistant can help you deal with some small things, and you can also spend more time with me." Shen Lingyou said, using himself as bait.

"I..." Huo Wenxi was about to refute again, but when he saw his eyes, he lost his temper instantly and could only say: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

"That's right." Shen Lingyou joked to ease the atmosphere: "Our Xinghuo is also a company of scale. How can a deputy general manager and artist manager not even have an assistant?"

Huo Wenxi was successfully amused.

She thought about it and it made sense.

There were many things that really didn't require her to go there in person, and the going back and forth would waste a lot of time.

Hong Kong, EMI Records.

"What did I say at that time? He gave me the opportunity, not me giving him the opportunity. Now you see it." Wang Jingfei's eyes flashed with pride, with the corners of her mouth raised, looking like a winner.

"Yes, you have a keen eye." Huang Weiqing smiled.

The album sold out and he was able to appear on CCTV Spring Festival Gala. How could I not smile?

When the team spent 6000 million to sign Wang Jingfei, there were many voices of pessimism and ridicule from the outside world, who believed that she had passed her peak and had a child this year, so her market value had been greatly reduced and she could not earn back the money at all.

An album and a title song shut those people up and slapped them in the face at the same time.

"What do you think about using all his songs for the next album?" Wang Jingfei suddenly had an idea. "30 per song, 300 songs would be million." Huang Weiqing was shocked.

"He still has two albums to release, plus he's going to be on CCTV Spring Festival Gala later, so I'm afraid you won't be able to buy one at 30 yuan per album," Wang Jingfei reminded.

"..." After hearing what she said, Huang Weiqing felt that the current price was very cheap and a good deal.

Wang Jingfei was just talking and still had to follow the company's arrangements.

She hopes there will be more high-quality songs like "Red Bean" that are comfortable to sing.

In fact, this is also the hope of every singer.

On the other side, Feitu Records.

Chen Tuan's mood was not so good at this time.

Xie Tingfeng's first solo Cantonese album "My Attitude" just released, ranked third on the Hong Kong IFPI record sales chart. Two of its title songs entered Hong Kong's major pop charts and were selected as this year's Top Ten Golden Songs, and were nominated for the Newcomer Award at the four major music award ceremonies.

On the surface, this result is acceptable, even very good, for a new singer.

However, there is a high probability that winning the award will only make you cannon fodder.

The most infuriating thing is that the album sales were completely crushed by Shen Lingyou's "Spark", and in Hong Kong, their home turf, they were also suppressed.

You tell me, can we still be happy about this?
Chen Tuan was very dissatisfied with this.

So, they began to prepare Xie Tingfeng's second personal Cantonese album, aiming to release it before the end of the year.

The reason why he is working so hard is that he still holds some shares of Feitu and is unwilling to hand over Feitu to Emperor Entertainment Group, so he wants to give it another try.

The entire record industry was hit by piracy and self-funded singers. The five major record companies, BMG, EMI, Sony, EMI and Warner, entered the Chinese market one after another, making the already precarious record market even worse.

The five major record companies adopted a new international business model, acquiring some small local record companies that are strong and have development prospects.

If many music production companies do not strive to be acquired by large international companies, they may lose the support to compete with other larger record companies.

Feidie Records had already fallen into the arms of Warner, while Feitu Records was still making its last struggle.

A spark can start a prairie fire.

Shen Lingyou's spark has already ignited a fire.

His sudden emergence was like a tiger descending from a mountain, and had a certain impact on record companies of all sizes.

At the same time, it also makes the Chinese music scene more lively.

to him.

Some people expect...

Some people don't feel...

Some people are jealous...

No matter what, it proves that his name and his influence have spread in the Chinese entertainment industry.
