Chapter 619 Early June
The more people there are in a company, the more rumors there are.
Chen Yubai was called away by his assistant in public.
So he stayed in the recording studio for a whole day, and the news that he would go again the next day and the day after spread like wildfire.
"Didn't the company intend to participate in that event with Xizhou? I thought they would be more cautious and let a well-known singer sign up."
"Actually, it doesn't matter whether they're new or not. 99% of the people in West Continent probably don't even know the pop singers from East Continent anyway."
"That's not necessarily true. Once the connection is established, the music platforms will be merged. There's no guarantee that people won't listen to songs by famous singers here first."
"That's right."
"But I heard that it wasn't just Chen Yubai who went to the recording studio that day. It seemed like Lu Wanxing, Brother Lu, was also there."
"Huh? The final choice turned out to be Chen Yubai? Who was the composer? So unconventional?"
"It's Mr. Lu." Someone replied in a low voice.
Everyone in the circle fell silent after hearing this.
"Well, as expected of Mr. Lu, he always gives people surprises."
"Yes."
He didn't even choose his own brother, but chose a newcomer.
After a moment of silence, someone speculated, "So, Chen Yubai is our company's next rising star?"
"Not necessarily," someone muttered disapprovingly. "This event is different... What if something unexpected happens?"
As for what kind of accident it was, they didn't dare to say anything.
But some people saw it clearly and said bluntly:
"If you ask me, there's nothing to be suspicious about. Think about it, since Mr. Lu debuted as a composer, has there been any song that hasn't become popular? Besides, Xizhou dialect appears in Mr. Lu's lyrics, too. And that song, 'Stars,' is of such high quality!"
Anyone present who had heard this song could not help but nod their heads.
Chang Yun originally thought that after Lu Wantang arranged for Chen Yubai to sign up for this activity, most people in the company would feel dissatisfied privately and then spread some rumors.
Unexpectedly, apart from some sour remarks, most people were quite calm.
He only had to think about it for a moment before he understood the reason.
——Since Lu Wantang founded the company, he has been continuously promoting new people. Most people in the company regard this as the boss's hobby. Moreover, Tang Xing's repeated success also proves that Lu Wantang has an extraordinary vision.
When Lu Wantang was free, Chang Yun sighed that since Lu Wantang's style of doing things was different from other company executives in the circle, it made Tangxing's artists less worried.
Lu Wantang didn't pay much attention to these things and basically just passed by them.
She's been quite busy lately.
Guiding Chen Yubai in recording songs is just a small matter.
The important thing is to collect relevant information about the Xizhou entertainment industry.
By the way, carefully screen and classify the lyrics and music obtained from the system lottery.
In addition, Sanzhouyue, which has just started, cannot ignore matters such as cooperation and investment with other companies.
After completing this series of trips, a few days passed in a flash.
----
March 1st.
Eight in the morning.
Information between Xizhou and the three continents of East, South and North was officially exchanged.
Film, television, music, social and other platforms are all merged and updated.
Soon, new rankings in various fields appeared in front of everyone.
In major forums and websites, many people are always paying attention to these lists.
The new song chart is one of the most watched charts.
[There were so many people releasing songs at the same time, did the new song chart freeze for a few seconds?]
[It’s useless to look at the rankings now, we still have to wait and see what happens at the end of the month]
[So far, it seems like a 50/50 split across all four continents? It seems like every continent has songs in the top ten, so the variation and number of songs is pretty evenly balanced.]
[The aesthetics in Xizhou are really different. I’m not used to it.]
[People in Benxizhou find the songs of the three continents strange and hard to understand.]
[The Xizhou-language songs released in the three continents of East, South, and North are not very good. It turns out that there is a language and cultural gap.]
Is there a separate chart for Sizhou's songwriting activities? When will that chart be updated? It seems to be blank right now.
[The activity list will be updated at 12 o'clock tonight]
……
Along with all the discussions comes the frantic publicity from major entertainment companies.
On the electronic screens on the streets of Xizhou, there are many posters of artists from the three continents of southeast and north, as well as advertisements for film and television dramas.
The same is true for the three continents of east, south and north.
At the same time, Lu Wantang brought Chen Yubai and a group of staff to Olinde City, the largest city in Xizhou.
Xizhou is divided into too many regions, so there will not be a "central city" like Linhai City in Dongzhou. In comparison, only Olinde can be regarded as an economic center.
As soon as the group left the airport, they felt the local customs and practices that were completely different from those in the other three continents.
Olinde seems to have completely abandoned "human touch" and the overall style looks very modern, a bit similar to the cyber-style city in Lu Wantang's impression.
"I've already booked a hotel before coming here. It's not far from the airport. They'll arrange a car to pick us up in three minutes."
Chang Yun put down his phone and exclaimed, "Wow!" When others looked over, he pointed at the electronic screen in the distance.
"Isn't that Teacher Yan Sui Yan? They are so efficient."
"The advertising fees for a big screen recommendation in a place like this must be very expensive, right?" Chen Yubai sighed with a hint of envy.
"The cost is secondary. To be able to arrange such a large advertisement at the beginning of the month, one must have connections. I guess someone in Yan Sui's company can contact Xizhou."
Chang Yun said, patting him on the shoulder, "You don't have to be envious, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Chen Yubai nodded and grinned, "Actually, I'm a little nervous. I'm going to compete with so many seniors on the same 'rank'. I'm worried about disappointing Sister Lu's expectations."
"If Wan Tang cared about this, she wouldn't have chosen you. She's very confident in her work!"
Chang Yun lowered his voice and said a few words of comfort. Seeing that Chen Yubai's complexion had improved, he changed the subject.
The group arrived in Olinde in the morning and rested in the hotel in the afternoon and prepared for the evening activities.
"You have to sing live tonight, so don't let down your guard." Lu Wantang paused. "Don't be too nervous. This isn't a commercial event, so it's better to relax a little."
Chen Yubai stood by the window, holding the lyrics and music of the new song in his hands, his eyes very determined.
At this time, Chang Yun came in from outside.
Lu Wantang went over to him and asked, "Is the venue arranged?"
"It's arranged. We can come at the time you requested." Chang Yun sighed, "But they are too shady. The price for the 7pm time slot is ten times higher than before, and it's only for a few minutes."
"It's normal."
These are 'special times'.
"Didn't we have a budget before we came here?" Lu Wantang said calmly without being surprised. "As long as we make sure we are the first among the three continents to go there to promote the event, that will be enough."
"That's right." Chang Yun nodded. "Other companies probably haven't thought of this approach before. They probably think the risk is too great and it's not worth spending so much money on it."
