After a pause, Zhou Rongze changed the subject and said seriously, "Chen Bin and I are in agreement. Even if the worst happens, they can lose, but you can't."

"Lin Rui, the success or failure of your work is closely related to their performance on the charts."

"Because their influence is limited to the first region, and not everyone will buy into it."

"But your fame, thanks to the three promotional videos, has spread to all sixteen states."

Lin Rui fell into thought.

He had considered what Zhou Rongze wanted to express before, but it might not have worked under the circumstances at the time.

However, after the three promotional videos were recognized by the China Literature and Art Association and published on its homepage, Lin Rui gradually recognized the feasibility of this method.

He can no longer rely on counterattacks as before; instead, he must take the lead and secure a winning start!

Only in this way can he influence the other works that belong to him on the list.

In this environment of coexistence among sixteen states, unless there are local fans, let alone first- or second-tier artists, even top stars would probably not be very popular.

"Mr. Zhou, I understand what you mean."

Lin Rui nodded seriously.

Seeing Lin Rui's expression, Zhou Rongze smiled and waved his hand, "Come on, have some tea."

…

As New Year's Eve drew closer, Shen Yun, Sun Youlin, Ye Yinhui, Xu Huijing, and others who were filming in Huazhou gradually returned to Xiazhou.

For three days in a row, everyone seemed to be working like crazy in the recording studio, honing their voices and trying to sing the best songs in the best possible condition.

Wen Wenxuan designed a dance on her own. After watching it, Lin Rui gave some suggestions. Wen Wenxuan's comprehension was quite good. After she integrated the ideas, Lin Rui nodded in approval.

Now, Wen Wenxuan has already started filming the music video.

On the other hand, Li Mubai has returned after successfully passing through the pass.

Having watched countless melodramatic soap operas about fortunes changing every thirty years, this guy actually had the audacity to go and discuss the life-or-death topic of love and marriage with Sun Youlin. Seeing Sun Youlin scratching his head as if he wanted to strangle this guy, Lin Rui secretly felt sweat for Li Mubai.

You've got guts!

But clearly, this setback was not enough to make him back down. After being turned away by Sun Youlin, Uncle Qiao gloriously became the substitute victim!

No wonder Uncle Qiao suddenly took leave without permission. Lin Rui thought Uncle Qiao was sick. It turns out that Uncle Qiao was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold back and would chop this guy up with a kitchen knife!

Upholding a fearless spirit of exploration, Li Mubai's audition truly amazed everyone present, including Lin Rui, who was also extremely surprised.

By his standards, Li Mubai's emotional expression in "Xia Sha" deserves at least 80 points!

This 80-point standard is almost comparable to Sun Youlin, who has been divorced four times and scored twice on the football field!

"Sister Qi, what movie did you show him?"

"Xiao Rui, would you like to give it a try?"

Luo Qi smiled knowingly, as if to say, "If you just nod, I'll make sure you're well-fed and clothed."

"never mind."

With a very rational wave of his hand, Lin Rui could almost guess how many times Li Mubai had suffered mental torment.

The recorded audio files were handed to Lin Rui one after another. After confirming that there were no problems, Lin Rui asked the staff to copy the audio files and then distribute them to the representatives of various music platforms who had been waiting at the company for a long time.

The promotional poster is complete!

Audio test complete!

Everyone is eagerly awaiting midnight tonight!

New Year's Eve!

A battle of gods!
