"Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi! Are you the album producer for three singers, Sun Yanzi, Elva Hsiao and Zhang Shaohan?!"

"Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi! Zhou Yi, can you please share the progress of your new album production?"

"Zhou Yi, there is a new singer named Jay Chou who has made waves in the music scene a few days ago. As of now, his popularity is second only to you in this year's music scene. What do you think of him..."

"Book of Changes..."

Zhou Yi, who was invited to participate in an event, was eventually "stopped" in front of the interview board. If he hadn't ducked quickly, those enthusiastic microphones would have almost hit him in the face——

With the help of Warner staff, Zhou Yi, who had adjusted the order of interviews, accepted the interview with a lot of unknown microphones in his hands——

"First of all, I am not Yanzi's album producer. They are my friends, and I just helped them write two songs. This is not news.

“Secondly, my personal new album is indeed in the process of being prepared, and I will never disappoint my fans and friends when the time comes.

"Finally, Jay Lun and I have actually known each other personally for a long time. We have a very good relationship with him. I think it is normal for his new album to be a hit."

At the end of November, Zhou Yi, who was wearing a burgundy woolen coat, showed his slender figure in the cameras of major media. An off-white turtleneck sweater underneath perfectly matched warmth and fashion.

Facing the camera, when mentioning Jay Chou, Zhou Yi did not show any ill will toward him as the media thought, but instead generously sent his blessings.

As a new discovery in the Baodao music scene in November, Jay Chou, who came out of nowhere, directly set off a wave in the Baodao music scene that no one except Zhou Yi could predict with his two songs Xingqing and Tornado.

Tornado even squeezed into the top 30 of the quarterly list due to its high popularity.

You must know that it is already the end of the year, and all the great gods in the music industry have finished fighting and have established their positions. Jay Chou is still able to fight his way out. This menacing attitude will inevitably make the media associate him with Zhou Yi.

After all, Zhouyi came out of nowhere like this in July, and then relied on all the great players to reach the top of the list.

Even the media who did not take it too seriously to watch the excitement shouted the slogan "We want to support Taiwanese local singer Jay Chou" after discovering that Jay Chou's album sales were so good.

Some media are even looking forward to Jay Chou being able to copy the myth created by Zhou Yi, and even surpass Zhou Yi on the ranking list, completing overtaking at the corner at the end of the millennium.

The loyal Jay Chou called Zhou Yi directly after seeing the news, saying that this was not what he or the company meant, but that the media was talking nonsense.

After all, Wu Zongxian's Alpha is not a big company, and its ability to control public opinion is definitely not as good as Warner's. So even though Zhou Yi repeatedly said that it was okay, Jay Chou was still very angry by the rumors from the outside media.

"With this sales growth rate...if it weren't for you, the most popular male singer in the Baodao music scene this year would probably be Jay Chou."

In Zhouyi's "company dormitory", holding the analytical data handed over by Warner's marketing department, the agent Qian Jiang, who looked like a general, couldn't help but be speechless.

It's a bit scary.

What's going on in the Baodao music scene this year?

The fierce men come one after another. If this is divided according to the description of the stages in the history books, this is a sign of chaos in the world.

"It's no wonder that the local media in Baodao praise Jay Chou so much. You were too strong before, which made them feel aggrieved.

"When a male singer suddenly appears, it is inevitable that you will turn your depression into support for him. I look forward to using Jay Chou to suppress you."

Qian Jiang, who has been traveling on both sides of the Taiwan Strait all year round, rubbed his slightly stubbled chin and figured out the reason why the media did this. A hint of sarcasm appeared on his face.

"It's impossible for Jay Chou to suppress me now. It's just wishful thinking of the Taiwanese media."

Zhou Yi didn't care about the noise from the outside world.

Although the data analysis looks very strong, in fact he is still a long way ahead of Jay Chou, not to mention that Jay Chou's album is only popular within Baodao.

Jay Chou would not really become popular nationwide until 2005. Before that, he was just a little king.

Before 2005, when I held a concert in the Mainland, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to sell out the tickets. I also cooperated with my partner China Mobile, and if I paid 300 or 400 yuan in phone calls, I would get a free ticket.

For the first time in his life, Zhou Yi followed his cousin and saw that the tickets for Jay Chou's concert were given by his family by charging phone bills.

"Whether it is wishful thinking or not, it is not without benefit to you to create such a momentum outside. Your popularity has picked up, and at the same time, the company's senior management has also given great creative freedom under Zhou Jianhui's decision."

Qian Jiang suddenly smiled like a Maitreya Buddha when talking about the income: "According to the news I heard, because of the success of your first album, Warner valued your second album more than Sun Yanzi.

"In fact, Zhou Jianhui is very likely to get you the right to have an unlimited album production budget."

Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows: "Unlimited? Is it true? Why have I never heard of it?"

"It is said that there is no upper limit, but in fact it is just an abbreviation for the high cost. No matter how much you spend, you can't spend hundreds of millions of yuan on an album."

Qian Jiang, who is accustomed to exaggerated descriptions in the Hong Kong music scene but has not yet changed, slapped his forehead and explained the concept of unlimited: "I think you should have heard about the millions and tens of millions that those Hong Kong superstars spent in the past to create a music scene. News about the album?"

"Then I'm traveling around in the name of filming music videos?"

"Theoretically, it's possible. Food and drinks are reimbursed with public funds. This is considered an unspoken benefit in the industry. If you want to find inspiration, tell me where you want to go first, and I will buy your air tickets."

At this point, Qian Jiang opened his notepad again, and the tip of the pen touched a schedule: "The news from Wu Zongxian is that all the specials about you have been produced and will be broadcast in two parts.

"If you are not in a hurry to go home and prepare for New Year's Day, you can first go to Baodao to see how the show is received after it airs.

"Also, the Rolling Stones are holding a celebration party for Rene Liu, and we have also received an invitation. Are you going?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yi nodded immediately: "Go, why don't you go. Some people came to show us off before, and I understand the principle of being carried in a sedan chair."

Qian Jiang was about to nod when he heard the cell phone ringing in Zhou Yi's pocket——

"Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here."

Zhou Yili was happy to see that the note was "Zhou Jianhui" and pressed the answer button: "Hello? Mr. Zhou?"

"Zhou Yi, your new album production budget is currently set at 2 million yuan, and you can increase it if necessary."

After saying that, Zhou Jianhui on the other end of the phone paused, and then added: "There is no limit."

…………………………………………

"What did you say? Real or fake?"

"Of course it's true. I can still lie to you. Anyway, thank you very much this time. I'll treat you to dinner next time."

In Treasure Island, Fan Bingbin, who hurried over after filming a TV series in the mainland, hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

Lying back on the hotel bed with a large font, Fan Bingbin raised his hand and looked at his friend's phone number on the screen of his mobile phone with an extremely solemn expression.

This is her last chance.

If it still doesn't work, I'm afraid I really have to bow to those people to get good resources for acting.

Oh shit!

Fan Bingbin felt angry when she thought of this.

They both came out of "Huanzhu", the other two were very popular, but she couldn't get anything, except to play a maid in a big production.

To be honest, she doesn't know if she can gain new attention by playing the heroine in the MV, but this is the last straw she can fight for independently.

In this era, relying on MVs to gain popularity is still an option.

Recommend a friend’s book:
