Three songs, let Jing Fupo accompany me to subvert the Chinese entertainment industry.

The rise of the Internet has directly shattered the traditional music scene.

Previously, piracy required physical CDs, but now all you need is a music software.

Not to mention the countless open-source links besides the software.

Therefore, Jingyang's album reaching its peak with 100,000 copies sold in its first week was already a significant achievement.

More than half a month has passed, and we've entered the latter half of August.

The main students who are buying are either busy catching up on homework or busy returning to school.

Therefore, the importance of entertainment should be reduced at this time.

As for urban youth and urban workers, those who wanted to buy it have already bought it, and those who didn't probably listened to pirated versions; there's no way to force them.

So, almost three weeks after its release, sales have barely exceeded 150,000, let alone 200,000.

Sales in the second week were just over 30,000. This wasn't just a drop in value; it was a complete collapse.

This would have been unthinkable in the past Chinese music scene.

Leaving aside the 80s and 90s, even in the millennium, the sales figures from the first week would snowball and grow bigger and bigger.

However, it's only the second year of the 10s, and this happened in the second week alone. How can the industry not fall silent?

Even though they had anticipated that the physical music market was doomed, they never expected it to be delivered in this way.

They used to have excuses, saying that the influence of veteran singers had declined, the quality of new singers was not as good as before, and that the quality of internet hits was low.

But Jingyang's sudden emergence kept him on the charts for a month, and his album was of excellent quality with all his songs being top-notch.

While it may not be able to overshadow the viral hit "I Can't Afford to Be Hurt," it's certainly going to be on par with it.

In the past, this would have been a no-brainer to be named a newcomer of the year, and someone comparable to a top-tier singer.

But this is the kind of person, this kind of quality, who has the popularity, the ability to be sung, and the reputation, yet this is the result. This leaves those in the industry with absolutely no excuses.

Therefore, ahead of the upcoming peak season of September and October in the music industry, the entire music scene has fallen into a pessimistic mood.

Music professionals, music influencers, music connoisseurs, professional critics, and even many singers are all discussing one thing.

They couldn't understand why, just a decade or so ago, the Chinese music scene was a vibrant and thriving place, with popular singers releasing songs that were warmly welcomed by listeners. Why did the Chinese music scene suddenly become a dead zone?

Is digital music the real way out?

This is a significant blow to some people who are committed to physical music.

Many media outlets, both online and offline, have sent invitations to Jingyang, wanting him to talk about this matter.

But Jingyang had his agent, Sister Lin, refuse them all.

What else is there to talk about?

Every year after that will be the best year for the Chinese music scene.

There's no worst, only worse.

In the future, the Chinese music scene will be impacted not only by viral internet hits, but also by viral short video hits.

More widespread, more brainwashing, less sophisticated, more stitched together.

But this is an inevitable process.

The era of universal entertainment is also an era for improving the musical literacy of the entire population.

Although it is painful, it is inevitable.

Jingyang has no choice but to change things. The only thing he can do now is accumulate capital and then talk about it later when he has more control over the narrative.

After returning to the capital, Lu Zheng began preparing a celebration banquet for the company.

The original plan was to hold a big celebration banquet and invite all the artists who had worked with the company, as well as the company itself.

However, given the current situation, Jingyang felt it was best not to hold a large-scale celebration banquet.

He personally delivered the death sentence to the Chinese music industry and even to the music industry itself, and then he still held a celebration banquet. What would outsiders think?

Let alone outsiders, even Jingyang himself felt it was very inappropriate.

After listening to Jingyang's idea, Lu Zheng thought for a second and then agreed.

He hadn't considered this point beforehand because he was too eager to show off his strength.

Now that Jingyang has pointed it out, it's naturally inappropriate.

So in the end, the decision was simply to hold a small celebration banquet at the hotel.

The banquet will only include company employees and people related to the album.

For example, Xue Qian and Li Ronghao participated in the production, and Jingying Tongxue and others participated in the recording of the songs.

The number of people is small, but they are all relevant personnel.

Given the album's current success, holding a celebration party ahead of schedule wouldn't be out of the question.

Most importantly, Lu Zheng wanted to use this victory celebration banquet to stabilize morale among his troops.

After a series of failures, morale among the troops is somewhat unstable.

No matter how high the salary is, it's terrifying if the company has no future.

Therefore, Lu Zheng wants to take this opportunity to tell everyone that the company is still the same company, and can lead everyone to grow bigger and stronger and create new glories!

Of course, you can't choose a bad one when it comes to star-studded temperaments, so let's go straight for five stars.

There were more than a dozen tables set up, with Jing Yang, Jing Tian, ​​Lu Zheng, and other senior executives sitting at the front.

The way these people looked at Jingyang was very complicated.

Jingyang rose to power too quickly, seizing control as soon as he arrived and then leading the company to reap huge profits, so much so that they haven't fully adapted yet.

When the time came, Lu Zheng immediately pulled everyone onto the stage to break the ice.

"One, two, three, may the album be a huge success!"

The number 180,000 was quite glaring, but no one cared; at least it gave them some psychological comfort.

Lu Zheng first gave a long speech, talking about the company's predicament and its current phoenix-like rebirth, directly siding with Jingyang.

Then Jingyang went up and gave everyone a speech, thanking everyone.

Of course, I especially want to thank Jing Tian.

Without her strong support and her overcoming of all opposition, there would be no Jingyang today.

Onion Orange!

From the initial escalation of the conflict between Jingyang and Zheng Shuang to the album's "big sales," Jingyang's contribution is indeed significant.

But at least half of Jingyang's credit goes to Jing Tian. Without her as a figurehead, Zheng Shuang wouldn't have been able to defeat Jingyang on her own.

So Zheng Shuang is nothing but trash, she is the real MVP!

Watching Jingyang speak eloquently on stage, Xue Zhiqian in the audience felt an indescribable envy.

Sitting at the second table in front of Xue, who was both happy and disappointed as the lyricist of a song and a co-producer of an album.

He proved himself, but it also seems like he didn't.

Jingyang was basically in charge of all the songs on the album, so the credit for the album's success doesn't go to anyone else.

Of course, all of that is secondary. The key point is seeing Jingyang. Xue had been wondering before when he would release an album and when he would become popular...

Not to prove how great he is, but simply to prove that he can do it!

Seeing this, Li Ronghao narrowed his eyes and whispered, "If that's what you think, why don't you ask Jingyang later?"

"He's not difficult to talk to, and he values ​​you quite a bit."

Xue paused for a moment upon hearing this, then jokingly replied, "Aren't you the same?"

Li Ronghao just smiled, but didn't say anything.

His situation is much better than Xue's before.
