Chapter 250 249. One hundred million bonus? The strongest talent in the world? (Subscribe)

Zhou Qinghua hasn't had any rest these days.

Wang Qian has been updating Romance of the Three Kingdoms these days, and he has been updating it crazily every day! Zhou Qinghua has also been watching it, and asked the publicity department to cooperate to promote the popularity of Wang Qian and Romance of the Three Kingdoms! Therefore, in the past few days, the popularity of Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Wang Qian has almost always dominated the popularity charts of major social platforms.

No matter how much publicity resources the big-budget New Year films use, or how the big-name stars in the leading roles perform on variety shows, they cannot shake Wang Qian and Romance of the Three Kingdoms from the top of the popularity list.

No matter how much publicity and promotion the Spring Festival Gala put in, led by CCTV, it failed to shake Wang Qian and Romance of the Three Kingdoms from the top of the popularity list.

Apart from Wang Qian, other stars and programs can only strive for the second place in popularity, even CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala promotion is the same! Of course.

Zhou Qinghua also knew that this was not the credit of him or the program team.

If the publicity campaign of The Voice of China alone could resist the publicity campaign of several big-budget Lunar New Year films during the Lunar New Year period, and at the same time suppress the popularity of the Spring Festival Gala, then the production company of The Voice of China would have already been the number one giant in the domestic entertainment industry! Obviously.

Neither the Voice of China program team nor Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV have such great power and influence.

They just added fuel to the fire and added icing on the cake to Wang Qian's popularity and appeal.

The main force driving this super topic is Wang Qian himself and the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms itself.

It’s because Wang Qian himself is too popular, and the content of the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms is too attractive!

Therefore, the popularity itself is already extremely high.

The production team gave him a little push! In addition, Zhou Qinghua heard some rumors that several giants and platforms in the Chinese entertainment industry seemed to be uniting to target Wang Qian and implement a plan to praise him to death. They would work together to use resources to praise Wang Qian, and then when Wang Qian failed, they would beat him to death with one blow, so that Wang Qian would never have a chance to turn over!

This plan is indeed vicious.

Zhou Qinghua was also worried.

However, he couldn't change anything.

He is just an executive deputy director of The Voice of China and a small shareholder of the production company. He is not a big name in the circle.

and……

The relationship between him and Wang Qian was not good enough for him to offend almost all the giant companies in the Chinese entertainment industry for Wang Qian.

Moreover, even if Wang Qian failed later and was killed by the plan of flattery, he would have died.

Zhou Qinghua and the Voice of China program team will not suffer too much loss.

The program team is only responsible for operations.

Wang Qian failed, what does it have to do with them? Wang Qian was already the strongest contestant selected, it was not a shady deal made by the program team. They can say this with confidence this year, and all the audience and other contestants also recognize it.

Therefore, Zhou Qinghua believed that he and the program team could stay out of it.

Now, the plans of several major groups and platform companies are still at the stage of promotion. During this stage, they will invest a lot of resources to promote Wang Qian and bring him higher popularity. Doesn't this also indirectly help the Voice of China program? Doesn't it also help the Voice of China program to increase its attention and ratings? Such a good thing!

The Voice of China program team was too busy welcoming him, how could they possibly oppose him? Therefore, although Zhou Qinghua heard about the news in the circle, he just listened and didn't care! Tonight, I was squatting and saw Wang Qian updated the last chapter of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that day. Wang Qian also said on Weibo that he would take a rest next to prepare for the Voice of China World Championship.

Zhou Qinghua immediately called Wang Qian.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Brother, are you finally tired of writing novels? Have you finally remembered this little thing called singing?

Buzz buzz buzz...

The phone rang twice.

Then it connected.

Zhou Qinghua found himself a little excited, and said with a trembling voice: "Professor Wang, did I disturb your rest?"

Zhou Qinghua seldom calls Wang Qian "Professor Wang" in private, because he feels that he and Wang Qian are friends, so just calling him by his name is enough. Moreover, he is also the director of the program team, and Wang Qian is a contestant under him. He has to maintain the dignity of the program team, so he can just call him by his name.

However, now he unconsciously called Wang Qian professor.

He has been reading Romance of the Three Kingdoms these days. As a student of literature, he knows deeply how powerful this novel is.

Therefore, he unconsciously had some respect for Wang Qian in his heart! Professor Wang, from his heart.

Wang Qian sat in front of the computer and said calmly, "Director Zhou, you haven't rested yet so late?"

Zhou Qinghua gradually relaxed and said with a smile: "Although China's Voice of China program is over, the World Championship is also my battlefield, and my work is not over yet. This is to provide you with good logistics. I saw you posted on Weibo that you would stop updating Romance of the Three Kingdoms and take a break to prepare for the World Championship. I will contact you immediately to talk to you about the World Championship."

Wang Qian leaned back in his chair and relaxed, letting Qin Xuerong massage him to relax. He said softly, "Director Zhou, you said, I have been concentrating on writing novels these days and have not paid attention to these things."

Zhou Qinghua: "I knew it, so I called you right away! The competition system has been finalized, you should know it. In the official competition, opponents will be selected according to the current ranking. You are ranked fourth, and you will compete with the seventh place, Jonathan, the champion of The Voice from Germany. He is a very powerful young male singer and a dark horse who has now received more than 5,000 votes. If you have time, you can take a good look at all his performance videos on The Voice."

Wang Qian agreed: "Okay, I will! What else?"

Zhou Qinghua: "Also, at the opening ceremony, each contestant in each region will have a chance to perform. This performance is not a formal competition and will not be counted in the rankings! It is just a performance, but each contestant will try their best to do their best in this performance, to make a big splash and leave a deep impression on all the audience."

"I've received news that the North American champion Adam has invited the top accompaniment team Feimo to accompany his live performances, and it seems that he is also in contact with a top production team."

"French contestant Sophie even invited a world-renowned orchestra from the Paris Conservatory to accompany her."

"Miyuki Nakamori from Japan had already gone to North America when the finals in Japan were over. She worked with several top creators under Sony to select and adapt English songs for her in preparation for the world competition."

"Elizabeth from the UK has reached a cooperation with the top British jazz music group and has arrived in North America together..."

Zhou Qinghua paused here, and then said emphatically: "Your opponent in the first game, Jonathan from Germany, has been signed by Universal Music, and Universal has also prepared a top service team for him."

"Among the popular contestants, you are the only one who is not making any moves now!"

Zhou Qinghua fell silent.

Wang Qian was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "I don't need to do anything. I just need to lead my team members over there."

Zhou Qinghua asked seriously, "Are you so confident? Wang Qian, you know you can't afford to lose in this world competition, right? You have to at least get a top three position before you can return home and face everyone's public opinion."

Based on everyone’s current expectations of Wang Qian, Zhou Qinghua believes that once Wang Qian is no longer among the top three, he will basically be criticized to death by everyone, and his career as a singer may be cut off in the future, and he may even have no chance of making it in the entertainment industry.

Wang Qian said calmly, "I'm going there to win the championship, Director Zhou. This is my promise to you and others. I will do my best to achieve it. If I can't, I won't come back."

Wang Qian's tone was calm.

However, what he said made Qin Xuerong, who was massaging his shoulders, open his eyes wide and stop moving his hands.

Zhou Qinghua on the other end of the phone also paused, not knowing what to say for a moment.

This promise is too heavy! After a second of silence.

Zhou Qinghua also said seriously: "Okay, since you are so confident, then our program team will do our best to support you. Moreover, if you really win the championship, the 10 million bonus I promised you will become 100 million. When we leave in two days, we will formally sign a contract and write this clause into the contract."

Zhou Qinghua also invested a lot of money.

but.

This little bit of money is nothing compared to winning the championship.

If Wang Qian won the world championship.

Then, the Chinese Voice production team will be the winner and receive half of all the revenue from the entire World Championship! According to the current popularity of the World Championship, the ratings in various countries are the highest, or one of the highest.

Zhou Qinghua knew that the revenue during this World Championship would definitely be a terrifying number, starting at at least $500 million.

Even if there were only 500 million US dollars, the winner would get half, which would be 250 million US dollars, which would be more than 100 million Chinese yuan. What's the point of giving Wang Qian 100 million? What's more! He believed that the total revenue of the world championship would definitely be far more than 500 million US dollars, even 1 billion US dollars.

Think of this number.

Zhou Qinghua's breathing almost stopped.

The Voice of China hasn’t earned this much in the past ten years.

However, he then thought of the post he had just seen that analyzed Wang Qian’s income from writing in recent days, and the expression on his face calmed down.

Wang Qian has earned hundreds of millions of yuan a day from writing these days, and his total income is nearly 500 million yuan! His 100 million yuan bonus seems to be just what other people earn from writing for a day...

Wang Qian smiled and said, "Okay, let's sign the contract before we leave."

Zhou Qinghua: "It's a deal. As long as you win the championship, we won't be stingy. Then I won't disturb you, Professor Wang, from resting. I'll leave the world championship to you."

Wang Qian: "Well, happy cooperation everyone!"

Zhou Qinghua: “Happy cooperation!”

Hang up the phone.

Wang Qian put down his phone, looking slightly serious.

When he pointed out that the cooperation was pleasant, he was actually pointing out the relationship between him and Zhou Qinghua. There was no friendship between them, they were just working together now.

Zhou Qinghua also answered and said that he understood! Qin Xuerong gently rubbed Wang Qian's temples and said in a worried tone: "If you don't win the championship, you will stay in North America? What should I do then?"

Wang Qian grabbed Qin Xuerong's hand and said with a smile: "What do you mean? Don't you believe I can win the championship?"

Qin Xuerong immediately shook her head and said firmly: "I believe you. If you win, I will accompany you. If you don't win, I will also accompany you."

Qin Xuerong made up her mind that no matter what happened in the future, she would never leave Wang Qian!

Wang Qian laughed, stood up, picked up Qin Xuerong with both hands, and walked towards the bathroom.

…………

North America!

Los Angeles.

In a recording studio.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Adam was singing in the recording studio, a classic pop song from thirty years ago. After being adapted, the arrangement became more dynamic, with the addition of many digital music elements. Coupled with Adam's gorgeous voice that came with post-production mixing, the people standing outside the recording studio kept nodding their heads as they listened to the song.

The middle-aged man in the lead said with a smile, "Adam was born to sing. This world championship is a gift tailor-made for him. Perhaps we will witness the birth of a new generation of legendary singer. Only he can threaten Christine's position."

This middle-aged man is Adam's mentor in this year's North American Voice competition. He is the legendary North American superstar Ceci, a super singer who became popular when he debuted 20 years ago. He was also a superstar who won the world album sales champion that year. His singing style is similar to Adam's, so Adam chose him as his mentor.

Ceci gave Adam a lot of help in the field of singing.

Adam went from being a singer who mostly relied on his talent to becoming a technical singer who mastered many singing techniques, and it was almost all thanks to Ceci.

Adam lived up to expectations and won the North American Championship, defeating his biggest rival Green.

Cesi naturally became the judge representing the North American region at the World Championship, and is now popular again. The sales of his old songs have soared, and his advertising endorsements and appearance fees have also increased. He has become one of the most popular people in the North American entertainment industry, and his popularity and attention are no less than that of the champion Adam.

The others also nodded in praise.

"Adam was able to defeat Green and win the North American Championship. His strength is beyond doubt. Green is also the most talented singer I have ever seen, no worse than the most popular Kristen. No matter who wins the North American Championship between Adam and Green, they will eventually defeat the contestants from other regions and become the world champion!"

A man said this very confidently, with the inherent pride of North American locals, looking down on people from other countries and regions.

but.

There were two people who didn't speak, a young woman and a middle-aged man! These two people were a famous North American music production team that Adam Company had invited at a great cost.

Cece also looked at the silent middle-aged man and said, "Winston, do you have anything to say? Have you thought about how to match the music for Adam?"

The middle-aged man put his hands in his pockets, wearing a casual hooded sweatshirt and jeans, with a scruffy face, but his eyes revealed absolute confidence. He stared at Adam and listened to Adam's singing. He did not answer Ceci's question immediately, but asked back: "Ceci, have you heard the work of the Chinese contestant?"

Everyone present was stunned for a moment.

I didn’t expect Winston to mention that Chinese player?

Ceci nodded. "Yes, I've heard two of his English rock songs. They're very good. Especially the rock song with a female voice at the end. It's amazing. I was shocked when I heard it. If I wasn't sure it was sung by him, I wouldn't believe it was true!"

Winston: "Do you know how many musical works he has created in just half a year since his debut in China? I mean musical works, not just pop songs!"

Ceci shook her head: "I haven't paid attention to it! But..."

Winston said seriously: "Then you need to learn more. To be honest, I heard what you said, it's ridiculous. Adam is not the strongest contender for the championship, you know?"

The people gathered at the door of the recording studio fell silent and looked at Winston.

Everyone has heard of Winston's temper. He is known as the most difficult top music producer to work with.

Although several top singers who have worked with him have achieved great success from working with him, few have anything good to say about him. Some of them privately said that they did not want to continue working with him and called him a dictator and tyrant in the recording studio.

So, no singer ever worked with the Winston team twice.

However, Winston is still one of the producers that most singers in North America and even in the entire European and American pop music circles most want to work with.

The reason is simple! So far, he has never failed.

Every album he produced for a singer sold well all over the world. Two divas and one king singer became king-level singers in a month just because of their collaboration with him, thus establishing their status as king-level singers.

Therefore, working with Winston means success!

However, Winston's extreme seriousness and harshness towards singers have earned him a bad reputation in the industry. Even singers who have worked with him, even if they have achieved great success and have been promoted to a higher level, have hardly ever said anything good about him! Now...

Everyone present felt firsthand the seriousness and harshness of Winston's words.

Winston could refute Ceci, a veteran in the North American music circle, so bluntly.

Is there anything else he dare not say?

Everyone fell silent, afraid that Winston would stare at them, which would be embarrassing.

Everyone looked at Ceci.

Cece was slapped in the face by Winston's rebuttal in public. She couldn't hold back her smile and immediately asked in a cold tone, "Oh? Mr. Winston, what do you think?"

Winston didn't even look at Ceci, as if he didn't notice the change in Ceci's tone. He still stared at Adam who was singing in the recording studio and said, "My idea is very simple. You don't understand your opponent at all. You are already dreaming of winning the championship. This is a sure defeat... Do you know? What is my Chinese player doing recently?"

Ceci replied calmly, "I don't know. I don't care about the people over there. In my opinion, they don't have their own pop music. They just follow us! In such an atmosphere, can any great singers be born? I don't think that it is impossible to surpass others through imitation."

In recent years, Chinese music has been imitating world trends.

Sisi said this with confidence.

Winston laughed. "After the Chinese contestant finished the Chinese Voice Championship, he went to give a lecture at a top Chinese university, and then spent five days writing a novel, writing tens of thousands of words every day! He didn't prepare for the world competition at all these days, and didn't do anything related to music."

Everyone present was shocked! What did that mean? They thought Winston would say something good about the Chinese player, saying that he was great...

Unexpectedly...

That player hadn't prepared for the World Championship at all? This reversal caught them off guard.

That……

Ceci laughed: "So, he is not worthy of being our opponent at all."

Winston nodded to the young woman beside him: "Maggie, tell them what you found!"

The young woman Maggie took out a file from her bag and handed it to Ceci, saying seriously, "This is the data of the Chinese player I recently compiled! All the music works he created since his debut, as well as the corresponding data. He has now become the most popular singer in China, or the person with the most fans in the world."

"He has 60 million fans in China, and all the songs he has released since his debut have been downloaded over 1 billion times online! He only took half a year to achieve this."

Ceci held the information and listened to Maggie's words. She was a little shocked and the contempt on her face disappeared completely!

60 million fans? With all his years of accumulation and his recent resurgence in popularity thanks to The Voice, he has only accumulated 20 million fans. The most popular queen-level singer in North America, Kristen, has just passed 30 million fans!

However, he also had doubts in his heart, because he knew that China's network data was basically inflated. This was also the reason why the world statistics agencies did not like to collect various data from China and did not enter the data from China into the world rankings because they did not believe in its authenticity! Even those terrifying download data, he had doubts! The highest single download data reached more than 80 million? The highest single download record in North America was a world champion single released by Christine three years ago. The total number of downloads accumulated to date is only more than 130 million, but the cumulative number of plays on YouTube is more than 7 billion, ranking first in the world!

Wang Qian has only been in the industry for half a year, and his single has accumulated more than 80 million downloads? Won't you surpass Christine and set the world's highest single download record in another half a year? Ceci was puzzled and still had doubts! He believed that Maggie would not falsify the data, but he did not believe that Hua Xia's data was true.

Winston said calmly, "He has absolute confidence and pride, and has publicly promised more than once to win the world championship. However, in recent days he has written a very popular novel. Why do you think that is?"

Ceci looked at the data in silence, and everyone else was silent as well.

Winston continued, "Because he also has absolute confidence. However, his confidence is different from yours! Your confidence is blind, while his confidence is based on his own strength."

"To be honest, I recently spent nearly a week to get to know him, and he has brought me a huge shock and impact! If we simply talk about musical talent and strength, this Chinese player Wang Qian is in a class of his own. The nine champions of the other nine major regions combined cannot compare to him!"

"Or to be more precise, no one in the world, whether in pop music or classical music, can compare to him."

The surroundings became quiet again.

Everyone was shocked by Winston's words.

Is this evaluation too much?
