“He did it!”
“I really did it!”
"call!"
"He is a magical being!"
"Amanda, I don't know why, but I suddenly felt my calm blood boiling again, as if it was full of vitality, and at the same time, endless power emerged..."
"He went against the trend and gave everyone a hard slap in the face!"
"I think a lot of people will feel pain from this slap!"
“Today may be the happiest day I’ve had in all these years!”
"Hahaha!"
"I feel..."
“I might be alive again…”
“…”
USA.
In the manor.
Amanda looked at McVis, who finished reading the sales data of "Lu Yuan" and then became as happy as a child.
At this moment, Maxvis was smiling brightly. He did not feel the frustration of being surpassed at all. On the contrary, he was extremely excited.
Amanda saw McVey let out a long sigh of relief.
In the early morning light, she even felt as if McVis had been relieved of a heavy pressure and reborn.
He once stood at the very top.
Standing in that place, although I can see very far, I always feel lonely and isolated. At the same time, I am also under pressure that ordinary people cannot imagine.
This kind of pressure was like a nightmare that often tormented him and even made him lose the meaning of his existence for a time.
But now, everything is fine.
Amanda likes this kind of McVey.
Full of energy and sunshine, all smiles, expressions and emotions are from the heart, and there is a charming charm.
This was something Amanda had never seen before.
Then Amanda started laughing too.
She looked at the album of "Lu Yuan" again. Lu Yuan was also smiling on the cover.
To be honest, even Amanda still feels a little unreal when she thinks about it now.
The end of the 3G era and the beginning of the 4G era. In this era when physical albums have completely declined to the point where they can no longer be viewed, such a miracle should not have happened. However, Lu Yuan did it anyway, as if he was swimming against the current and slapped everyone in the face.
If this album was in the era of McVey, then…
Is there still McVey?
When Amanda thought about this, she found that her mind was blank.
But, no matter what, this Chinese man is already a new generation of God!
At this moment...
“The first day surpassed my album, so what about the second day?”
“Will it surpass my album the next day? How crazy can it be?”
After having fun, Maxwell and Amanda looked at Lu Yuan's album on the table with the same anticipation.
It was as if this album was not Lu Yuan’s, but his own album.
"Mike, I will."
"Do you also believe that he can create another miracle?"
"yes!"
…
"He...actually overturned an entire era!"
"It's as if this era has nothing to do with him anymore. It's not the era that influences him, but he influences this era!"
"No, it should be said that he created an era!"
“…”
“…”
There are many similar sentiments on the Internet.
On the Korean Internet, the name Lu Yuan has even been all over the screen. On the popularity rankings of major online platforms, Lu Yuan has always occupied the first place!
Some are excited, some praise, some are thrilled, some are boiling, and some doubt life...
certainly……
Some people are devastated, their minds are filled with confusion and despair, just like people who have fallen into the abyss and cannot extricate themselves.
Li Duojun is such a person.
When he looked at Lu Yuan's crazy album sales, then looked at his own pitiful sales, and heard that the company was considering promotion or discount to sell the album first...
He didn't know what to say.
He seemed to see darkness all before his eyes, and besides the darkness, he also wanted to slap himself hard.
Why did you choose this time to release the album?
Wouldn't it be better if I waited until the album "Lu Yuan" was released before releasing it? If so, would this situation become irreversible?
In fact, if Lu Yuan did not exist, his album would definitely sell steadily, and after a series of hype, the album would still be popular for a while.
However, after Lu Yuan released his album and the entire Korean entertainment industry was discussing the huge popularity of Lu Yuan's album, it was impossible for KS Company to invest in promotional plans to maintain the sales of his album.
After all, the people at KS company are not fools. They know that if such a huge ship hits them, no matter how much money is invested in publicity, it will all be wasted.
so……
They had no choice but to give up Li Duojun and look for other things.
so……
Lee Da-jun's album, which was not supposed to be a flop in Korea, has now been declared a flop...
What about in China?
The situation in China was even worse than in Korea. No one was interested in his album. He even suspected that no one would buy it even if he put a nude photo on it...
This is normal!
Whose territory is China?
China is Lu Yuan’s territory!
Even if the former Maxvis faced the current Lu Yuan, he might not be able to gain the upper hand in China, right?
China failed, South Korea failed, and this double blow had a great impact on Lee Duojun.
These two days, he would be awakened even when he had nightmares.
"wrong!"
"It's normal that the popularity is very high on the first day. After all, Lu Yuan himself is very popular!"
"But, the next day, his fever..."
"Even if it is very high, it is impossible for his sales to surpass McVis again! Impossible, absolutely impossible. This is the era. He can't be the same as what is said on the Internet. He represents an era, and the era cannot affect him!"
“…”
Li Duojun stayed in the company's office. The more he thought about it, the more unwilling and angry he became!
finally……
As if he was hysterical, he roared like this!
After he let out this roar, he suddenly felt much better.
Now he no longer wants to surpass Lu Yuan in album sales.
Now, he wanted to stop Lu Yuan's miracle. He hoped that Maxvis could suppress Lu Yuan and prevent him from creating any more myths.
He even began to pray to God silently in his heart!
Another day passed.
June 3rd.
Li Duojun kept his bloodshot eyes open all night, waiting for the album sales to show up.
The night seemed particularly hard to endure, and today's sales data seemed to appear particularly slowly, so slowly that Li Duojun's patience was almost worn out.
At eight o'clock in the morning, his phone rang.
After hearing the phone call, Li Duojun's heart suddenly skipped a beat!
The call was from the boss, Jin Jiming.
"In the company?"
"exist……"
"Come to my office."
“…”
Boss Kim Ki-myeong sounded a little cold on the phone. After hearing this voice, Li Duojun breathed a sigh of relief.
It's fine!
It's fine!
He reminded himself.
When he came to Jin Jiming's office with a nervous heart, Jin Jiming told him two things.
"Your album sales data is not good. For the entire day, China and South Korea combined have not sold 5,000 copies... And that's under the premise of a discount..."
“…”
Li Duojun took over Jin Jiming's data report. When he saw his total album sales of 3,500 copies, his mind went blank and there was no sound around him.
It was a complete failure.
"This is the result you wanted. This is the result of you being calm and releasing an album with Lu Yuan!"
"Mr. Jin... Mr. Jin, the sales of Lu Yuan's album is, how much..." Li Duojun raised his head in a trance, his eyes were filled with bloodshot. At the same time, there seemed to be a ray of hope hidden in his eyes, a kind of despair but still wanting to find hope.
"A little less than the first day, four million..."
"Huh, four million copies, four million copies... Not bad, not bad, wait... What did you say, you... four million... copies? Maxvis's previous album sold three million.9 million copies, right? No, Maxvis... Lu Yuan, how could his album be possible, no..." Li Duojun's expression was first ecstatic, then turned into shock, and then the whole person seemed to be stimulated by something, his pupils shrank, and when he said this incoherently, he even felt like vomiting.
"Calm down and realize your importance. You are only 29 years old. You still have a long way to go in the future... The company will help you well..." Seeing Li Duojun's expression, Jin Jiming couldn't bear to criticize him anymore, so he softened his tone and comforted him...
only……
"I... I am two years older than Lu Yuan... I... I... My way, his way..."
Li Duojun was not comforted at all.
Not only was I not comforted, I seemed to be hit even more.
after all!
He is twenty-nine years old.
And Lu Yuan...
damn it!
Only twenty-seven years old!
“Bang!”
"Li Duojun, Li Duojun! Are you okay?"
“…”
“…”
Li Duojun's eyes went dark and he suddenly lost consciousness after a moment of trance.
…
The album sales on the second day were like thunder, resounding throughout the world pop music scene.
one day!
Everyone thought that it would only take one day for Lu Yuan to surpass Maxvis!
One day later, Lu Yuan's album will definitely decline sharply and will definitely not surpass Michael Weiss.
After all, this is normal in this era when physical albums are declining and the Internet is flourishing.
This is in line with the current situation, in line with logic, and this is common sense!
However, Lu Yuan is illogical, like a bug in a game, madly subverting everyone's common sense!
The next day, sales reached four million copies!
Surpassed McVey again!
This time, it exceeded 100,000.
On the third day, the album numbers inevitably declined.
There is no way to avoid this. After all, album sales are often the craziest on the first day, and will decrease every day thereafter. Even Michael Weiss is no exception. As long as the number does not drop drastically, it is normal.
Michael Weiss's previous albums also showed a downward trend.
Maxvis' album sales on the third day were 368, while Lu Yuan's were 3.7 million!
Over 20,000!
Day 4…
Day 5…
Ten days passed quickly.
In ten days, Lu Yuan's sales volume has always surpassed that of McVis. Although the number is not large, he has always been in a state of surpassing...
Then, the total album sales for ten days came out!
Lu Yuan’s album sales are 19 million copies!
When the astonishing data of 19 million appeared in front of everyone...
Everyone felt like they were crazy.
Everyone feels like they are living in an incredible crazy world.
Mcvis sold 18.7 million copies in ten days!
And Lu Yuan...
It surpassed Maxvis by 300,000 copies!
This is real data, which cannot be falsified.
At this moment, no one doubted whether Lu Yuan's album could surpass Michael Weiss's total sales of 35 million!
At this moment, everyone confirmed one thing!
That is, the old king ends and the new king is crowned!
This is not the most outrageous thing!
The most outrageous thing is the new king. At the moment of change of eras, he completely went against the times and surpassed the old king in an unequal manner in all aspects. He was unstoppable!
"Li Duojun suffered a sudden myocardial infarction and was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. He is suspected to be out of danger..."
"Xu Hong no longer talked about Lu Yuan, but only about his two future mysterious science fiction films, which were suspected to be in line with Hollywood blockbusters..."
"McVis sent a congratulatory message from the United States, saying: I will go to his concert! We still have one more competition to finish!"
“…”
A lot of gossip also surged up in the huge wave at this moment.
…
"Wait, the Superman comics that were just released in the United States seem to be... the same as the script of Mr. Xu's movie Superman?"
"It seems... the script of 'Batman' released at the same time is similar to that of 'Batman'?"
"The name of this company is, 'Remote'? This company is 'Remote' Comics?"
"Our script was leaked, and then Lu Yuan plagiarized our ideas?"
"still……"
“…”
“…”
No one cares.
Fan Liming, an assistant director of "Batman", suddenly discovered something very scary!
Then his expression became serious.
When he found director Chen Hua and explained the matter, Chen Hua immediately called screenwriter Reese.
The other end of the phone.
"Lu Yuan must have plagiarized it!"
“…”
"Yes, I definitely didn't plagiarize! I didn't!"
“…”
"I'm not! I checked and Lu Yuan doesn't have the copyright!"
“…”
"Yes, I'm not! By the way, Director Chen, I need some money. I have another good script and I need three hundred thousand!"
“…”
"Yes, give it to me now. We have worked together twice. Do you think I will run away? I am currently working at Century Company. Someone from Century Company wants to recruit me. I am hesitating whether to go there or not!"
“…”
"I guarantee with my personal integrity that all my works are original. Lu Yuan has read my scripts before. Yes, he has! He asked for a very high price. If you hadn't paid me, I would have sold it to him! Yes, Lu Yuan's works are indeed original. But, what you don't know is that I used to work for Lu Yuan's company. I wrote scripts for Lu Yuan and he admired my talent very much. In fact, I helped write half of the script for Saw. Don't you believe it? I have photos. I have photos with Lu Yuan... You can ask an expert to see if this photo is photoshopped. It definitely can't be photoshopped. I have other evidence... But you have to pay a lot of money to buy it..."
“…”
"Don't worry, we have cooperated twice. Are you still worried? My account is... Yes, this is my wife's account. It's not a big problem..."
“…”
“…”
Reese shook his head in denial.
When Chen Hua heard this, he felt relieved.
After all, Reese is from Hollywood, so Chen Hua believes him. He has also checked Reese's work ID before and found no problems.
At the same time, he also confirmed the photo sent by Reese, which was definitely not photoshopped.
Could it be that...
Lu Yuan's previous scripts were really written by Reese...
Then Lu Yuan is actually...
He then asked his assistant to transfer the money to Reese's account and buy the script in his personal name.
After the purchase, he looked at the call recording on his mobile phone.
Then he narrowed his eyes, as if he thought of something, and then smiled evilly.
These……
It's all money!
certainly……
He didn't know that after Reese received the money on the phone, he threw away the SIM card and fled the United States overnight with his wife who had almost recovered...
What he didn't know was that Reese's identity was actually fake.
