Chapter 61: The First Derogatory Nickname on the Chinese Internet: Little Heavenly King

On the student side.

Chinese style and inspirational songs completed the explosion.

And at the social level.

"Lu Jiang·Chinese Style" also displays its destructive power wantonly.

The emergence of "Dongfeng Po" and "Lanting Xu" attracted the attention and recognition of countless veteran artists.

The quality of the songs themselves is also quite good.

Without even saying hello, CCTV directly arranged for high-end resources such as "China Music Television" and the Channel 1's noon news.

Although these resources are definitely benefited from the Venice Golden Lion Award.

But Lu Jiang had no psychological burden, after all, he was the one who won the Golden Lion Award.

In addition, songs such as "Ten Years" and "Exclusive Memories" are the most widely adapted to the current fan base.

It can even be said that even if this album only has one song, "Ten Years", it will still be a huge hit, especially if the quality of the other songs is average.

Plus the strong blessing of the Venice Golden Lion halo.

Thus, inspirational songs, Chinese-style songs and Venice are combined into a powerful combination.

The film was exposed by all media, and with the help of Warner, various film critics and music critics came out to give high praise.

Therefore, even though the student group, one of the main audiences of "Lu Jiang·Chinese Style", does not have the strength to support the genuine album for the time being.

But the support from other fans still made Lu Jiang's third album sell well.

The album was released on September 1999, 9. In just one week, sales in mainland China exceeded 15 copies, and 30 copies were sold in two weeks, exceeding the results of "Lu Jiang" one month after its release last year.

This was achieved despite the fact that piracy is even more rampant than last year.

Sales in mainland China reached 55 in two weeks.

A terrifying result of 96 in two weeks across Asia.

It also completely crushed Yehenara's "Just Do It" and Xie Tingfeng's "Thank You for Your Love 1999" released in the same period.

It can be said that since the release of "Lu Jiang·Chinese Style".

The album sales growth of these two people was directly suppressed.

Before the release of "Lu Jiang·Chinese Style", "Just Go For It" exceeded 22 in half a month.

As a result, there were less than 6 in the second half of the month.

In other words, this is another disastrous defeat for "Fairy Tale" since it was "forced" by Lu Jiang to fail in the charts, sales, reputation, and popularity.

All parties made fun of Yehenara.

You are a mainland queen, not only are you disloyal, but you were also crushed into this state. It's so embarrassing!
However, Yehenara was very dissatisfied with this.

She publicly stated that she accepted that she couldn't compete with Lu Jiang, but let me ask you, regarding Lu Jiang's album, who would dare to try and see if they could beat him, let alone compete with him, who would have the guts to do so?

This statement was like a map cannon, full of sarcasm, but no one dared to respond.

There is no way, "Lu Jiang·Chinese Style" is too popular, extremely popular.

The seven hit songs, led by "Ten Years" and "Dongfeng Po", have become a complete hit, dominating the major music charts.

Except for "Don't Return If You Don't Get Drunk" which ranked twelfth, the other seven songs made it into the top nine. The only two vacancies left were "The Rain Keeps Falling" which was just released by Zhang Yu and ranked eighth, and "Since I Had You" from "Return of the Condor Heroes 7" which ranked third.

Even the tenth place is Lu Jiang’s old song "Jiangnan".

Under such a crazy siege, the industry's question of who can compete has long shifted from competition within the same generation to competition across generations.

Some people say that someone during the period of the Tan-Legendary rivalry can do it, while others say that someone during the peak period of the Four Heavenly Kings can do it.

Of course, most people think that "Too Soft-Hearted" still has a good chance of competing with it.

But such discussions further whipped Xie Tingfeng's corpse.

When everyone was discussing, they never forgot the "little king" Xie Tingfeng.

"Thank You For Your Love 1999" had a strong momentum in the first half of the month, earning 29 in half a month, but after Lu Jiang appeared in the second half of the month, sales plummeted to less than 8.

And probably most of these 8 were sold in Hong Kong.

This really excited the media.

The little king of Hong Kong who had been scamming Lu Jiang for three months.

After a real head-on confrontation with Lu Jiang, he was crushed to the ground without leaving any debris.

If they don't hype up this popular scene, they would be unworthy of their press cards.

Xie Tingfeng actually had no way to deal with this.

The situation in Lujiang has become so bad that our situation is hopeless.

It’s better to just admit defeat.

Of course, there are ways and methods to admit defeat.

The company also took appropriate measures. On the one hand, "Lu Jiang: Chinese Style" is indeed unstoppable, and everyone can see it, so there is no shame in admitting defeat.

On the other hand, the company will first arrange for other singers of the same period to announce the postponement, and then arrange other work for Xie Tingfeng, such as charity, etc., and slowly cover it with new hot spots. In this way, it will be face-saving to admit defeat, and it may even gain a wave of favor from mainland people.

Huo Wenxi also continued to advise: "Let it go for a while, and come back after a while. You can still make a difference by relying on the natural advantages of being a Hong Kong artist."

In a word: give up, Afeng, there are only Lu Jiang outside! As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood!

But Xie Tingfeng still persisted.

He yelled at Huo Wenxi again, saying that the third album must be released!

For this reason, he even privately announced to the paparazzi: the next album will be released soon!
This news was quickly suppressed by the Eagle King.

But Warner already knows about it.

There was a warning in the beginning when I sent the album and let the other party listen to the songs in advance.

If you want to stab me, you can fight me as long as you want, and I will accompany you.

Huo Wenxi understood.

But Xie Tingfeng obviously didn't understand.

That works.

Since the other party refuses to admit defeat, no one can be blamed.

There is definitely no need to continue releasing songs. After all, the overall situation has been decided and Eagle King has already pinned down Xie Tingfeng.

But in terms of public opinion, we still have to charge some interest.

Soon, the news began to spread on the Chinese Internet and within the industry.

It is said that Xie Tingfeng came with great momentum and tried to hype Lu Jiang up.

Lu Jiang felt that this person must be very strong, so he prepared 14 songs for the new album.

As a result, after finally seeing Xie Tingfeng's two albums, he directly cut out 6 songs, with the original intention of not bullying others too much.

But in the end, these 8 songs crushed Xie Tingfeng to pieces.

This is gossip.

It's unofficial history.

But the reporters are interested and the onlookers believe it.

Many people began to investigate and soon found some reliable information.

The manufacturer that produced Lu Jiang's albums revealed that a batch of albums were indeed sealed and would not be used again until next year.

This is still a rumor, the manufacturer did not disclose the name or photo, and later denied it.

Warner also made a clarification.

But it did not prevent this matter from being spread all over the world on the mainland's newly developed Internet.

Everyone found that Lu Jiang's small move completely crushed Xie Tingfeng's halo as the little superstar.

Xie Tingfeng's earlier crazy marketing attitude of being on equal footing with Lu Jiang has now completely reversed.

The value of Lujiang continues to rise.

The value of Xie Tingfeng, the little superstar, is constantly declining.

So from now on anyone can call himself "Little King", but no one can beat Lu Jiang anyway.

But want to be a superstar? Look at Lu Jiangxian.

Lu Jiang has become a benchmark. He is an excellent singer and songwriter, with amazing talent, and has brought glory to the country.

And the “little king”?
No one will be willing to call themselves that anymore.

Because it has become a derogatory term.

Talented netizens followed the Chinese style trend and wrote a piece of classical Chinese:
There was a scholar named Xie Tingfeng, who was known as the Little Heavenly King.

However, in reality, it is just a name without substance, and it is just empty talk, just like the Yunmeng Lake, which is vast but has no fish.

He often boasts in public about his lofty ambitions, but when facing a powerful enemy, he becomes dejected and lacks spirit, and it is obvious that he is lacking in talent and knowledge.

One day, he met the True Heavenly King Lu Jiang on the road. He was a man of great dignity and awe-inspiring power.

The little king didn't take it seriously at first and wanted to use his old tricks to bully others.

When the two clashed, the little king's skills and strategies were like a child playing with sand, and were no match for him.

The True Heavenly King Lu Jiang's every move had restricted him in every way, like a trapped beast.

At that moment, the little king began to realize how shallow he was. His past fame had all vanished like a passing cloud.

He sighed and said, "From now on, I know that there are always people better than me and there are always things better than me. My former arrogance was truly ridiculous. From now on, I will clean up my act, study with an open mind, and seek real talent and knowledge."

After saying this, he bowed and left, no longer considering himself the little king.

There was a lot of praise online: Good!
Because of this, Xie Tingfeng was given the first derogatory nickname on the Chinese Internet: Little King!
