Jiang Lun.
Xu Dongsheng smoked one cigarette after another, coughing while smoking.
He actually doesn't like smoking very much, but for some reason, he especially wants to smoke these two days.
Early morning of April 7th.
The weather is a bit cold.
The assistant knocked on Xu Dongsheng's office door, and then nervously handed the album's daily sales report to Xu Dongsheng.
Xu Dongsheng waved his hand, signaling his assistant to go down first.
The assistant breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xu Dongsheng's somewhat impatient expression, and quickly bent down respectfully and turned away.
Xu Dongsheng's office was so depressing that he couldn't breathe.
He happened to meet Li Duojun just after the assistant left the office.
"Xiao Liu, what's wrong?"
“No…it’s okay…”
“What are today’s album sales?”
"I... I don't know. You should go in and ask Mr. Xu..."
“…”
Li Duojun frowned when he saw Xiao Liu running away, and an even worse thought came to his mind.
The sales of his album in the past two days are indeed not bad, but compared with Wang Hao's "Fly Higher", it is still firmly suppressed...
It’s true that Wang Hao is a newcomer, and it’s true that “Fly Higher” is his first album.
but……
Lu Yuan's advertisement was really lethal, and it was released when the popularity was at its peak...
Therefore, there are few people in China who don’t know “Fly Higher”.
Li Duojun had no way to deal with these things. Not only Li Duojun, but even the "Jianglun" company and the Korean company combined had no way to deal with them.
After all, in a sense, these are factors beyond human control.
"Come in."
"Mr. Xu..."
"Oh, sit down."
"good."
Li Duojun felt that Xu Dongsheng's expression was not right, so he cleverly sat aside and watched Xu Dongsheng check the data over and over again.
He knew that Xu Dongsheng's mood at the moment was definitely not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface.
At least it can be seen from Xu Dongsheng's attitude towards him!
Normally, when Xu Dongsheng faced him, there would be a smile and expectation on his face, but in the past two days, Xu Dongsheng's smile and expectation were gone, replaced by silence and a reluctant nod.
The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
Li Duojun could understand all this.
After about ten minutes, Xu Dongsheng raised his head slightly.
“Do you know what the album sales were yesterday?”
"have no idea."
"You didn't ask Xiao Liu?"
"I asked, but Xiao Liu didn't say."
"Two million albums in a single day..."
"Two million!" Li Duojun was stunned at first, then showed a surprised expression.
He suddenly became excited!
An album that sells two million copies a day!
This is definitely good news. Could it be that Mr. Xu is trying to suppress the opponent's intention and then promote him?
"It's Wang Hao's. As for us... our album only sold 800,000, less than one million..." Xu Dongsheng suddenly shook his head after looking at Li Duojun's excited expression.
"What!" Li Duojun's smile gradually disappeared.
A very oppressive feeling rose from his chest, making him feel suffocated.
Two million versus eight hundred thousand, this gap is really...
Somewhat big!
"I also thought that this data was fake before, so I kept comparing it in various ways, but unfortunately the information given to me by various channels is true. We really only have 800,000..." Xu Dongsheng put out the cigarette butt and stared at Xu Dongsheng silently.
He originally wanted to smile, but now he couldn't smile at all, and he didn't even want to pat Li Duojun on the shoulder.
Lee Da Joon's album did not flop.
At least……
There is absolutely no problem in making a small profit and recovering the investment.
pity……
This album is really not as good as Wang Hao's album. Not only that, it is not as popular as Wang Hao's "Fly Higher" in Weibo hot searches and searches on major music websites. What's even more confusing is that Lee Dajun's title song "I'm Here" is not as popular as Wang Hao's second original rock song "My Era" in Wang Hao's album...
There is not just a tiny difference. All the data show that these two songs are completely different.
“Did we lose?”
"Listen to the songs at the bottom of his album, don't listen to the song 'Fly Higher'..."
"Why?"
"'Fly Higher' is the hit song Lu Yuan wrote for him...it will have some influence on you after listening to it."
"good."
Li Duojun took the CD from Xu Dongsheng, then put on headphones and listened to it nearby.
Wang Hao's voice was crazy and hoarse, but at the same time it was filled with a surge of blood...
This song "My Time" roars out an indescribable emotional melody, which makes Li Duojun's heart tremble when he hears it.
He never imagined that this newcomer could be so terrifying!
Then he listened to the other songs in silence.
After listening, Li Duojun closed his eyes.
"How about it?"
"Except for this song 'Fly Higher', are all other songs written by him independently?"
"yes."
"I understand." Li Duojun stood up and looked at Xu Dongsheng silently.
He didn't know what to say.
His mood was very complicated at the moment, and he didn't know where the arrogance deep in his heart had gone.
Wang Hao!
At this time, he stood up, turned around and prepared to leave.
Many times, the blows come in waves.
There is a very ridiculous feeling at this moment.
Before coming to China, he thought his biggest rival was Lu Yuan. After hearing that Lu Yuan was banned by Hollywood, he felt that he had a chance to surpass Lu Yuan and suppress him under his feet.
But after the Spring Festival Gala incident, he suddenly realized that something was not right.
later……
When the two Korean and Chinese companies tried their best to make him dominate the headlines of the Chinese entertainment industry for nearly half a month, he finally felt a sense of pride.
But……
When victory was about to be seen, Lu Yuan suddenly rushed out!
After killing...
He found that all his enthusiasm and efforts were wasted, and he even suspected that all his efforts over the past two months were a joke.
What made him even more speechless was yet to come.
Immediately afterwards, this guy named Wang Hao, who had been very low-key before, suddenly appeared.
The album suddenly pressed him to beat!
Then, after Dangdang listened to Wang Hao’s album just now, he found out absurdly that he still had to fight with Wang Hao, and he even lost the fight with Wang Hao!
I have talent.
But this guy named Wang Hao seems to have talent, and he is surprisingly good at rock music.
I have to admit that my album is still a little lacking after all.
Lu Yuan?
Compared with Lu Yuan?
Now I can’t even beat Lu Yuan’s little brother, how can I compete with Lu Yuan?
At this moment...
"You have completely lost your original sharpness."
"I lost...I have to admit that I lost once." Li Duojun turned and looked at Xu Dongsheng.
"You get discouraged after losing once?"
"No……"
"You are Li Duojun. In the future, you will be the top of the Chinese entertainment industry and the top of Asia!"
"I……"
"It doesn't matter if you don't have enough talent. I will pay someone to help you create a new album. It doesn't matter if you're not popular enough. You just need to maintain your arrogance. When facing the media, you must maintain the same personality as before. In fact, starting tomorrow, you have to officially declare war on Lu Yuan!" Xu Dongsheng suddenly tore the album report into pieces, and then came to Li Duojun.
"I……"
"Even though the album lost, we still have the movie! I thought about changing the movie you wrote to "Red Dragon" written by Sovia!"
"Soviya?" Li Duojun was stunned.
"Yes, it's Sovia, the screenwriter of last year's "Dream Traveler"! The box office of "Dream Traveler" is obvious to all, right?"
"I……"
"For "Red Dragon", I invested 220 million, which is higher than "Dream Travelers". At the same time, I will cooperate with the Hollywood superstar Annie, and you will be the male lead!" Xu Dongsheng stared at Li Duojun.
“……”Li Duojun suddenly felt a creepy feeling.
He saw a kind of madness in Xu Dongsheng's eyes, like a gambler's, and this madness shocked him a little.
Since he met Xu Dongsheng, this was the first time he had seen Xu Dongsheng look like this.
"I'll build a platform for you. From today on, you must follow the path I've laid for you and walk on it. Do you understand?"
"I...I understand!"
"Tomorrow, the company will promote your new movie and let you compete with Lu Yuan's "The Legend of 1900"! You must provoke a fight and start the war, do you understand?"
"I...I know!" Li Duojun lowered his head.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that he had absolutely no way to turn back.
"That's good! Go down."
"good."
Xu Dongsheng watched Li Duojun turn around and leave step by step, and he suddenly narrowed his eyes.
When all his plans and arrangements were thwarted by Lu Yuan, Xu Dongsheng simply gave up planning.
In this crazy era, he completely became a gambler.
He had to bet on Lee Da-jun to win.
Even if I win once, it would be great.
Just at this moment, his phone rang.
A few minutes later.
"Bang!"
Xu Dongsheng, who has always been good-tempered, smashed his phone to pieces after receiving the call.
He breathed heavily from his chest.
Suppress the flame fiercely.
Then……
He turned on the website's news channel.
"Shocking news! According to the latest news, Lu Yuan invited world-class pianists Edward and Kennedy and others to join the crew of "The Legend of 1900"..."
"Most of the top ten pianists are actually included in Lu Yuan's "The Legend of 1900". This is... a movie that is enough to shock the piano world!"
“…”
Countless news came one after another...
"Lu Yuan!"
"Lu Yuan!"
“…”
Xu Dongsheng kept repeating these two words, unable to tell whether he was angry or helpless.
"Declare war!"
He clenched his fists for a while and finally calmed down!
…
noon.
“Woo woo…”
"What the hell did I do?"
“…”
Lu Yuan woke up from his sleep and was stunned when he saw the written contracts.
"Are you awake?"
"Yes...what does all this mean?"
"You asked me to write these for you yesterday."
"What? Me yesterday?"
"Um……"
"Wait, I signed them to my "The Legend of 1900" crew?"
"What do you think?"
“…”
Lu Yuan was at a loss.
I don't remember.
etc!
Such awesome people...
What should I do with this pay?
What the hell?
Lu Yuan panicked!
