Chapter 9: Defeating the Prospective Singer
In early December every year, the Daxia Music Exchange Association will re-evaluate the levels of all singers.
The singer's level will be re-determined based on a joint evaluation of various aspects including the performance of previous songs, works, popularity, influence, and awards.
Among these, the most important weight is the performance of the work.
This is a very objective indicator that speaks with facts and data.
The most important indicators for a singer are how many works he has released, how much sales he has made, how many number one singles he has achieved, etc. The quality of his songs, their popularity and good sales are the most important indicators for a singer.
Therefore, the most important thing for a singer to upgrade is the data of his works.
A-list male singer Zhang Ye is the focus of mass entertainment this year.
Her appearance and singing skills are very good, and the popularity and achievements she has accumulated in recent years are also very gratifying.
Wan Hua, the husband of Lin Lin, the eldest daughter of the second wife, is the head of the composition department, and he is the one who is in charge of Zhang Ye's new album.
After more than a year of hard work, this album will be released in November and is Zhang Ye's way to become the king of singers.
His only hard indicator is a number one single.
Champion! And sales must exceed 3 million...
A few months ago, Wanhua had already found out everything in the circle.
Most of the singers who released songs in November were third- and fourth-tier singers. There were no particularly competitive kings or queens of singing or first-tier singers.
With the album that I and my team have worked so hard on, and the publicity campaign that started in September, the first problem shouldn't be a big one.
He wasn't worried about the data at all. Zhang Ye's song getting 3 million was still acceptable.
What's more, this time the conditions are right for the time, place and people.
I looked at the latest song charts again.
"'Garden Flowers'? A nursery rhyme?"
"This should be fine. It's usually just a wave of popularity."
Even though we have seen the popularity of digging, we are not on the same track after all.
And it’s almost November, so Wanhua’s conclusion is that the problem is not serious and there is nothing to be afraid of.
This history-making nursery rhyme was completely ignored.
The song "Planting Flowers in the Garden" released in mid-October continues to be popular and has been searched frequently.
When the public promotion began in early November, Jin Mengmeng appeared on Shancheng TV.
A few days later, this interview and the popularity of the nursery rhyme were featured on CCTV’s News Broadcast for 30 seconds.
Although it mainly talks about preschool education, there is no shortage of praise for the works.
The official actions are as fierce as a tiger.
The already explosive "Kids' Choice" became even more popular.
Sweeping the monthly rankings.
It caught the entertainment industry off guard!
The industry was stunned.
By this time, Volkswagen had already released the song and major media outlets had already arranged for promotion.
Just waiting for the expected hot searches and explosive popularity.
What I got was a report from CCTV, saying that the 8 songs in the "Selected Children's Songs" were a 100-meter sprint, from outside the top 100 to the top ten.
The speed is terrifying, and it is impossible to catch up with it.
In the end, 8 songs firmly occupied the top 8 places!
I scrolled through the hot searches from top to bottom.
#Selected Children's Songs#
#Jin Mengmeng#
#Garden Planting News Broadcast#
Found #张爷新歌# at number 18.
And it still dominates the charts!
Zhang Ye's new song took 9th place with 1.8 million views.
It’s only the beginning of November, and if it were in the past by the end of the month, that would be quite good data!
But today, not to mention that the number one game "Garden Planting" has already been downloaded more than 7 million times.
The 8th place "Little Swallow" with more than 2.9 million downloads is far from reaching it.
Forget about winning the championship, it’s hard to even move forward one place!
This... is hard to comment!
The sudden emergence of "Children's Greatest Hits" silenced the entire music scene.
"Children's Song Selection" has been online for a week and has defeated the would-be singing king.

Zhang Ye's new album encounters a black swan event in the music industry
[Tragedy! The would-be singing king is ranked 9th!]
[The 6-year-old queen dug and dug to block her way to becoming a singing king! ]
The media is eager to watch the fun, and each headline is more derogatory than the last.
There was a lot of discussion among the composers.
“Tsk tsk tsk!”
“That title is so ugly!”
“…”
“It’s hard to say…”
“The one who beats you may not be your competitor, or even someone in the industry.”
“It’s so miserable to release a song this month…”
"I even feel a little sympathetic towards Zhang Ye!"
"Why did Zhang Ye send it now, not earlier or later?"
“They say they picked November specifically!”
“Hahahahahahaha.”
"Sorry, I still want to smile."
"There are no top singers this month, not even any top-tier singers."
"This is truly the worst possible luck I've ever had!"
"Yes, an opportunity like becoming the singing king is something most companies don't give you very often."
"It's like capsizing in a ditch."
"Did the would-be singing king ever imagine that the one that would defeat him would be a children's song?!"
"I haven't seen anyone release a song with this kind of fanfare since I started working. Is this a dimensionality reduction attack for a children's song?"
"I've been in the industry for 15 years, and I've barely seen anyone release children's songs."
"The children's song market is huge, but good works are rare. Last month, our team analyzed and determined that this album will become a classic children's song. It's the kind of classic that can support a company with its annual downloads!"
"It makes a lot more money than pop songs. Pop songs only make money for a while, but songs here make money for a lifetime."
“It could be enough to earn money for several generations!”
"If this album is a Clash of the Titans, it will be a great success. Believe it or not, it will give you a 6-year-old superstar."
“…”
At Volkswagen Entertainment, Lin Xin, Volkswagen's senior management, and Zhang Ye's entire team gathered in the conference room.
The atmosphere was extremely gloomy.
Who would have thought that the song that had been prepared for more than a year would have the best timing, location and people.
As a result, the boat capsized in the ditch.
The nursery rhyme pushed me to 9th place and I couldn’t move at all.
The 8th place is a long way off.
Despite investing so many resources, it only ranked 18th on the trending searches.
Moreover, as other songs in "Selected Children's Songs" spread, each song basically has its own hot searches and topics.
These 18 people are now in danger. If they are squeezed out of the top 20, they will probably become a laughing stock in the industry.
"Children's songs? A children's song album that came out of nowhere can bring down a would-be superstar? How did you do the research and preparation?"
"The company invested so much money and effort, and nothing happened?"
"Ninth place! 18th on trending searches? A would-be singing king can achieve this kind of results?!"
"Look at the headlines in the media, the discussions within the industry, the public is completely embarrassed..."
Lin Xin had a gloomy face and kept scolding for half an hour. No one dared to speak.
When it was almost time, Lin Lin started to explain.
"Chairman, CCTV reported on that children's song the night before yesterday, and it's become a huge hit now. But our album was released the day before yesterday, and the resources are already in place. This company isn't a serious entertainment company, and they actually released their album last month, so this might be hard to predict..."
Lin Xin listened for a long time and looked at the trending searches.
I knew this was a black swan event.
"What company issued it?"
"A media company that deals with weddings and offline performances isn't considered part of the entertainment industry. It feels like a coincidence."
Wanhua just saw that it was a small media company and did not investigate it in detail.
"Hmph, what can I do? I just flipped over."
"We've agreed on the resources, so we'll use them where necessary. With this data, there's no chance of winning the top spot. Forget about the extra ones, and try to minimize the losses."
If the official media takes action, the company can only withdraw.
Lin Lin came down and could only comfort Wan Hua and Zhang Ye.
"This kind of thing hasn't happened once in the entire entertainment industry in the past ten years. We can only say that we are unlucky. The Central Bank is protecting us, and we can't do anything. I will give Brother Ye some TV station resources."
Wan Hua and Zhang Ye smiled bitterly; they were both very depressed.
Lin Mo didn't know, it was just such a coincidence!
The time my uncle arranged for the song release perfectly hit the target of Mass Entertainment's plan to become the king.

Lin Mo was so excited when he saw the Double-Edged Blade that he jumped three feet high! The surprise came so suddenly!
"Oh my god! Jin Yong! The martial arts IP universe!
"Is this really appropriate for me to take?"
"Can I just finish writing this and lie down?"
【Doesn't the host still want revenge? 】
"...right."
Excited to the point of boiling blood, Lin Mo opened the Hulk's blog and wrote down the words that would later leave a brilliant memory in the hearts of countless martial arts fans:
[Flying snow all over the sky, shooting white deer, laughing at the hero leaning on the green mandarin duck. ]
This is an announcement to the Blue Star martial arts literary community. I, Old Lin, am here on behalf of Mr. Jin and the martial arts of Earth.
