Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 218, Section 217: Album Release - First in the Chinese Entertainment Industry! Attending MAMA with Nezha (4k)

It's almost the end of November.

Lin Shaobai's physical album, which he has been producing for more than half a year, has been officially released.

He poured a lot of effort into this album.

I thought of many names at first, and I wanted to use "If I Could" as the album title, but I always felt that it was not quite right.

Using other songs as album titles would be too long.

After careful consideration, I decided to use the first letter of my name, L.

The final album title was "L".

This is Lin Shaobai's first physical album, which contains a total of 6 songs: "So Many People in This World", "If I Could", "Clearly", "Alaska Bay", "Let's Walk Together Through the Evening Breeze", and also includes the recently released hit song "Want to See You, Want to See You, Want to See You".

The physical album includes not only songs, but also a photo album specially taken by Lin Shaobai, portrait posters, lyric posters, round headshot cards, and more.

The album's sales exceeded 5000 million within 3 minutes of its release!
180,000 vinyl records disappeared in one second.

Within just 13 hours of its release, it topped the overall sales charts for physical albums on both platforms, generating a total sales revenue of 3.5 million! A new record has been set!
Achieve the prestigious "Hall of Fame Epic Recording" certification from Tencent Music.

Over one million people listened online simultaneously, and over 4000 million people listened using the same background image as the album cover on Tencent Music!

Opening the trending songs and new song charts on Tencent Music and NetEase Music, all you see are six songs by Lin Shaobai.

Among them, "Want to See You, Want to See You, Want to See You," "If I Could," "So Many People in This World," and "Gulf of Alaska" are the most popular.

In particular, "So Many People in This World" has been covered by many popular online singers.

The album sold 3.5 million copies in 13 hours, a result that silenced even the haters.

The hashtag #LinShaoBaiAlbum# quickly topped the Weibo hot search list.

Clicking on it allows you to hear snippets of some of his songs and see comments from fans and casual listeners.

[Lin Shaobai, the only superstar in the Chinese entertainment industry, led the best team in the industry to release his latest album "L". It achieved record-breaking sales across all platforms in just 13 hours, proving his immense popularity.]

The sheer astonishment of passersby suggested that Lin Shaobai's presence elevated any field he entered.

[The Chinese entertainment industry is currently unmatched. Actually, Lin Shaobai's dramas are also incredibly successful overseas.]

[As expected of Lin Shaobai's productions, everything is top-notch. Six songs, each one is so good you could listen to them on repeat. Plus, the physical album is reasonably priced, and the 8-pound gift box includes free shipping!]

[A phenomenal album + a huge casual fanbase + immense national popularity.]

This result is truly outstanding! As a white crane (a nickname for a crane), I feel incredibly happy!

To be honest, I'm not a fan of his, so I'm not interested in the content of his albums. But I really enjoy listening to his songs.

[How should I put it? A truly epic, hall-of-fame album is the limit for Penguin Music, not for Lin Shaobai.]

Every time he releases a song, he leaves behind an insurmountable peak in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Wow, I can't believe someone can act so well and write such great songs. "So Many People in This World" is absolutely amazing!

I still think "Want to See You, Want to See You, Want to See You" is a better song.

After the song was released, his new song began to be played everywhere.

A university's radio station plays songs around 5 or 6 pm.

I'm playing Lin Shaobai's new song on repeat.

The girls in the dormitory were incredibly excited to hear Lin Shaobai's new song playing outside!
"Oh my god, it's Lin Shaobai's new song, 'So Many People in This World'."

"Ah, so that's the name of the song. No wonder it's so good!"

"Lin Shaobai's songs have always been pretty good; there's always one that will touch your heart."

"He starred in all the popular TV dramas, and he even wrote all the hit songs. It's amazing."

"I feel really happy to be Lin Shaobai's fan. Because many popular celebrities only have fans but no achievements, but Lin Shaobai not only has fans, but also outstanding works and achievements."

"I wonder when his next drama will air."

Lin Shaobai's die-hard fan Chen Siqi dragged her roommate out for hot pot, both wearing down jackets.

This is the most famous hot pot restaurant in the area. When Chen Siqi heard Lin Shaobai's new song playing inside, her eyes lit up immediately.

"Huh? The song is pretty good. It sounds like it was sung by Lin Shaobai."

"It's a song by Lin Shaobai!"

"There are so many people in this world, how lucky I am to have 'us'~"

"This song is so nice!"

"I'm impressed. Lin Shaobai is still so good even after not releasing a song for so long."

My roommate said this while putting food into the hot pot.

"To be honest, in all these years, there has never been a male star in the Chinese entertainment industry who is as good at both songwriting and acting as Lin Shaobai."

"There aren't any female celebrities either. Right now, the top female stars are Dilraba and Yang Zi, but neither of them can write songs."

"That's why I say Lin Shaobai is awesome."

After finishing cooking all her favorite dishes, Chen Siqi interjected, "I'm planning to take some time off to watch Shao Bai film 'The Beginning.' But he's filming with Tian Xiwei again."

"Tian Xiwei is an artist under his company, so they'll definitely be filming together."

"But Zhou Ye is the same. Why should resources only be given to Tian Xiwei? I personally think promoting Zhou Ye is more cost-effective."

I still support Zhou Ye a bit more.

Chen Siqi's two roommates inexplicably started arguing about this.

“Zhou Ye is clearly more promising than Tian Xiwei, and he's successful in both TV dramas and movies. Someone who can make movies is definitely more capable than someone who can make TV dramas.”

"I don't know who decided that movie stars are better than TV stars, and Tian Xiwei's looks are unique in the Chinese entertainment industry. Zhou Ye is basically the pure and innocent type. There will definitely be many more girls with this kind of innocent and pure look in the future. Anyway, I think if Lin Shaobai had any foresight, he would definitely have promoted Tian Xiwei."

"Alright, alright, I feel like we're not on the same page. Chen Siqi, from your perspective, who do you think is more promising?"

"Why are you asking me? I hate both of them!"

Chen Siqi originally thought that the two of you could discuss it and not involve me, because I am a die-hard fan of Lin Shaobai.

It’s really a matter of which pot should not be opened.

They actually asked solo fans which couple they liked?!
The two roommates who were arguing were visibly stunned when they heard this.

"Sisters, I'm a die-hard fan of Lin Shaobai. Although I don't mind him being paired with other female celebrities, I'm still his dream girl! His dream girl."

"Oh, okay." My roommate realized that what she had said earlier was inappropriate and immediately shut up and started eating.

Besides young people, older people also really like Lin Shaobai.

Some elderly people even had their grandchildren take them to Lin Shaobai's company, Baichen Entertainment, to take photos and check in.

"My dear granddaughter, is this Lin Shaobai's company?"

"That's right! This is Lin Shaobai's company, Baichen Entertainment!"

"Quickly, quickly, take a picture of Grandma!"

These people were also very sensible; they didn't dare linger at the company entrance, only daring to stand far away and take some photos.

The two security guards standing on the first floor looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Hey, when did our company become a time clock?"

"Originally, it was just some of Mr. Lin's fans who came to take pictures, but later Zhou Ye and Tian Xi became popular, and their fans also came to take pictures."

"That's too exaggerated! I see some elderly ladies with gray hair!"

"Our company's artists are all national-level, so it's normal for there to be elderly people among them. Besides, Baichen is not like other small workshops; our company has a very beautiful building, and some people might just want to come and take pictures of the building itself."

The security guard shrugged and went back to work.

"I heard that President Lin is planning to turn the first floor into a place open to visitors. He's even going to put up a 'celebrity wall'?"

"I haven't heard of that. But we'll probably do something about it later, since our company already has two pretty popular young female artists."

"It's just that a drama series was broadcast, and it gained a little fame."

"Take it slow." Bai Chen Entertainment has been very popular lately, becoming a well-known company in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Once a company has a well-known artist, then the company can be considered respectable.

Moreover, two new leaders have already emerged in Lin Shaobai's company.

The album's release was a resounding success, prompting Lin Shaobai to record a thank-you video before flying to Japan to attend the 2019 MAMA.

Mnet Asian Music Awards.

Another Chinese artist invited was Naza, who is famous for her beauty.

The two met backstage after walking the red carpet in Japan.

Naza's eyes lit up when she saw Lin Shaobai coming over in a suit.

"Hi, Teacher Lin, I see you're filming a movie lately?"

Naza took the initiative to start the conversation.

"Correct."

"Ah, I've listened to your latest song. How can you guarantee that you can still produce such a high-quality song while filming?"

Naza wasn't being polite at all; he was just curious.

The human brain must be limited, so how can someone be so good at everything?

"Actually, I write songs during my breaks from acting. And there are only 6 songs, which isn't a lot."

Lin Shaobai accepted the water handed to him by the staff.

Many artists from Xiaohan walked past him at that moment, such as BTS, Seventeen, TXT, and WayV.

These South Korean groups greeted Lin Shaobai with exceptionally polite bows.

Although Lin Shaobai is young, he has a big reputation!

He's a superstar in the Chinese entertainment industry; many of Han Han's idols watch the dramas he stars in.

After greeting Xiaohan, the idols chatted behind her back.

"Who is that pretty lady?" (Han Yu)

"Okay, it seems like the name is Naza."

"You're so beautiful!"

"Don't you think Lin Shaobai is handsome?"

"Oh my. Isn't it common knowledge that Lin Shao is handsome and good-looking?"

Lin Shaobai is universally acknowledged as handsome throughout Asia; in those compilations of young, handsome men, he is always the first to represent China.

He recently won first place in the Asia-Pacific region's most handsome face competition.

Therefore, many female idols really want to take a photo with him, but they are too embarrassed because of their idol status.

JYP girl group TWICE walked the red carpet and then went backstage.

They, who were originally calm, screamed excitedly when they saw Lin Shaobai sitting in the distance!

"Ahhhh!"

"calm down."

Female idols shouldn't react so excitedly to seeing handsome men, but Lin Shaobai is just too dazzling to resist.

Among them, Sana Minatozaki, a member of Twice, was the most excited.

Since last year, she has been completely obsessed with Lin Shaobai. During that time, she would often look for news about Lin Shaobai online, and she would repeatedly check out the TV series that had been exported overseas.

Sana Minatozaki blinked her bright, puppy-like eyes at Lin Shaobai. She was so excited that she was pulled to the back of the group by the team leader, Park Jihyo.

"What are you doing, Sana? Calm down, calm down."

"Oh my, it's Lin Shaobai!"

"Lin Shaobai is Lin Shaobai, why are you so agitated?"

"How could I not be excited to see Lin Shaobai? He's an incredibly popular star in China. I really like him. I want to take a picture with him."

“No way.” Lim Nayeon stepped forward and stopped the agitated Minatozaki Sana: “The group photo has to be taken as a group photo of TWICE.”

“Sure, let’s ask if we can take a photo together as a group called TWICE,” Momo said with a smile.

Lim Nayeon: "Okay, then Ziyu and I will go and talk to him."

Lin Shaobai had no idea what was happening in the distance.

The scene was too noisy, so even with the screams, I didn't pay much attention and continued chatting with Nazar.

"But all six of your songs are masterpieces, especially 'So Many People in This World,' which I think is particularly beautiful."

After listening to Lin Shaobai's songs, Naza became a complete fangirl.

I've been discussing song-related issues with Lin Shaobai.

"Thank you for your support."

"Hey, why are you being so polite? You and Tian Xiwei seem really close."

"Then... my relationship with Oda must be special."

Lin Shaobai smiled deliberately.

Naza noticed that Lin Shaobai's expression seemed somewhat dazed.

I've never seen him laugh like this while we've been chatting.

"Still called Xiaotian? That's a very endearing way to address you."

"Xiao Tian'er is an artist in my company."

"Oh, I know, they all say Baichen Entertainment is a company that produces beautiful girls."

"Beautiful girl..."

Lin Shaobai shook his head in annoyance upon hearing this.

What netizens said makes a lot of sense; Zhou Ye and Tian Xiwei are indeed young and beautiful.

"Hey." Naza suddenly reached out and pinched Lin Shaobai's shoulder: "Where did you find two such beautiful girls? And they're not only beautiful, they're also good actresses. Your company's talent scouts are pretty good."

"Sorry, neither of these two people were discovered by our company's talent scouts."

Lin Shaobai leaned back, tilting his head back with a hint of smugness.

"Our company's talent scouts are mainly responsible for signing singing and dancing trainees; we find actors ourselves by going to schools."

"Come on. How could they have picked just those two out of so many students at the performing arts academy?"

Naza happened to turn her head and saw nine beautiful girls walking towards them.

"Huh? Why is Twice here?"

Lin Shaobai looked in the direction of the stabbing finger.

At this moment, the nine people had arrived in front of Lin Shaobai and greeted him very politely in Chinese.

Before they even arrived, they had asked Zhou Ziyu, a member of their team, to give them some extra lessons.

"Hello, Teacher Lin and Sister Nazha!"

The voices of the nine girls greeting each other were quite loud.

"Oh, hello everyone."

Lin Shaobai and Nazha got up from their seats together.

Zhou Ziyu and Lin Nayeon came out together. Ziyu said gently, "Hello, Teacher Lin, we'd like to take a picture with you, is that alright?"
