Compared to movies, songs can generate a market response much faster.

The main advantage lies in its short production cycle and fast release speed, unlike movies which require a long period of preparation and production.

Some films even take one or two years to shoot and polish, and then have to go through layers of censorship before they can be officially shown to the audience.

But Panlong Company's songs are different.

With Xiao Weiguo's ready-made lyric generator and the melody, all you need is a professional to transcribe the sheet music, and a song is complete.

Then, with Zhou Ruolan singing it, the entire production process can be completed in as little as three days. Looking at companies both domestically and internationally, which one can match that speed?

However, Xiao Weiguo also understands that it's not about a singer releasing more works.

The market needs time to mature and accumulate.

After Zhou Ruolan's first album was released, Xiao Weiguo did not rush to release a second album for her.

The company provided Zhou Ruolan with a professional team, from production to distribution, from her personal image packaging to public relations and publicity.

They also have dedicated agents and personal assistants.

They even provided her with a luxurious ducal van and a personal driver. Everything was arranged for her according to the standards of a top-tier celebrity in later generations.

Then, Zhou Ruolan began a nationwide tour and autograph sales.

And so, Zhou Ruolan was used as a trump card by Xiao Weiguo to pawn in Panlong Company.

The purpose is to showcase the company's strength and build its reputation in the industry.

As the president of the entertainment company, Liu Ye had been learning and observing all of Xiao Weiguo's actions, carefully studying every single one of them.

Since Xiao Weiguo has entrusted this matter to me, I can't keep letting Xiao Weiguo worry about things here.

Having no prior experience in this area, she now has such a great teacher and opportunity, and she is like a dried-up sponge, absorbing all the knowledge.

"My Loulan" was released in edition after edition. Despite the impact of piracy, this first album released by Panlong Company in the entertainment industry still broke the sales records of many record companies in China, including Hong Kong and Taiwan.

For the first time in history, mainland singers and entertainment companies are competing on the same stage with entertainment industries from island provinces and abroad.

The most affected sector is, of course, the booming Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry.

The singers and albums released at the same time were completely overwhelmed by Xiao Weiguo's meticulously crafted album, like a small pebble crushed into dust by the overwhelming music trend.

However, this did not cause any panic among the bigwigs in the Hong Kong and Taiwan music industry.

For many years, the mainland entertainment industry has been weak, with top talent being attracted to these large companies. This has resulted in the mainland entertainment industry lacking competitiveness in various aspects.

In previous years, some singers did emerge. However, due to their suppression, they were quickly overshadowed and became just a small ripple in music history.

They believed that Zhang Ruolan and Panlong Company were the same; as long as they exerted a little effort, they could crush her at the very beginning.

Of course, there are also many insightful companies that immediately recognized Zhou Ruolan's extraordinary talent. With proper training and promotion, becoming a top star in China is a certainty.

These people learned that Panlong Company was just a newly established domestic entertainment company, and so far, it only had Zhou Ruolan as its singer.

They quickly extended an olive branch to Zhou Ruolan, offering almost irresistible terms, even willing to pay a hefty penalty for breach of contract, and privately invited her to join their company.

In their minds, without Zhou Ruolan, Xiao Weiguo's Panlong Culture and Entertainment would soon be like a flash in the pan, never to have another chance to compete with large companies like theirs.

What they didn't know was that Zhou Ruolan's rapid rise to prominence was largely due to Xiao Weiguo, a song-making machine with unparalleled advantages.

Even after leaving Xiao Weiguo, she might still be able to achieve something with her talent, but she would never reach such heights.

The big companies didn't understand this, but Zhou Ruolan knew it perfectly well.

Even if they offered ten times the price they were willing to pay, Zhou Ruolan would not have the slightest intention of leaving Panlong Culture and Entertainment.

She quickly relayed this information to Xiao Weiguo. This included the private letters those people had sent him.

Xiao Weiguo merely glanced at the letters before casually tossing them into the trash can.

He asked Zhou Ruolan with a smile.

"Teacher Zhou, aren't you tempted by such high requirements?"

After all, they had known each other for so long and he was used to calling her Teacher Zhou. Even though Zhou Ruolan is now a household name, he has never changed that title.

Now, whenever Zhou Ruolan goes out, even just for a ten-minute stroll downstairs, dedicated staff will do her makeup and prepare various outfits for her. They will only let her out after she has been carefully dressed up.

It wasn't that Zhou Ruolan liked it this way, but rather that Xiao Weiguo insisted. Right now, she was still in the rising phase of her career, and it wasn't time to return to simplicity. She absolutely couldn't show the slightest flaw in front of outsiders.

Today she's going for a pure and innocent look, with bangs slightly covering her eyebrows, long, smooth hair cascading down her back, and a pristine white straight-cut dress. She's wearing a pair of pink ankle boots.

Even Xiao Weiguo couldn't help but sigh at Xiao Baojun's good fortune with his youthful and beautiful appearance.
