"That's what they say," Zhou Yiyang said, sitting at the table, twirling his pen non-stop. "But the implication behind their words is probably that they just want us to be the spokesperson for their women's clothing line. But it's still much more sincere than Bailing Jewelry."
"Bai Ling Jewelry has always been like this," Bai Yangyu smiled. "They claim to be one of the first foreign brands to enter our China, and they've always wanted to maintain a high-end image. For many years, their global spokespeople have all been Americans, and their spokespeople for the Asia-Pacific region have been Japanese and Korean. They've ignored our Chinese market."
"Yeah, they actually want us, Moonlight Girls, to promote their diamond ring series. This title is too disrespectful." Zhou Yiyang rubbed his eyebrows. Many people asked him to be a spokesperson, but very few of them were of high quality.
Second-tier brands like Bailing Jewelry are only willing to promote their product lines, purely hoping to reap the benefits of their fans and satisfy the vanity of both fans and celebrities.
"Forget it," Zhou Yiyang stood up and made a decision. "I can accept the endorsement of Morica's women's clothing line, but forget about Bailing Jewelry. There's no need to kowtow to a foreign brand like this that's destined to decline."
Bai Yangyu nodded, not having any objection to Zhou Yiyang's decision: "After all, we don't have any solid works yet. Once the movie or new album becomes a hit, those high-end brands will come knocking on our door."
Speaking of albums, Zhou Yiyang couldn't help but stretch. "By the way, who are the top sellers for physical and digital albums so far this year?"
"As for the physical album, it's the soundtrack to the hit TV series 'Mother-in-law's Good Wife'. I think it sold 300,000 copies."
"What?" Zhou Yiyang almost lost his balance: "Why haven't I heard of this TV?"
"It's a drama for middle-aged women, and the ratings have already exceeded 2. It's a true drama king. It's a pity that there are no young people watching it, so there's not much discussion online, and no young actors have been revealed. However, the soundtrack is sung by the killer of middle-aged women - Mr. Yan Lun, and when you buy the album, you get a bottle of dishwashing liquid!"
Zhou Yiyang opened his mouth and noticed the current depression in the physical market.
“What about the digital album?”
"Currently, Black Whale Music is the dominant force. As of yesterday, the top spot on the annual charts went to Ling Hu, one of the four most popular artists. His new album, 'Never Say Never,' has sold 1.9 million copies. The second-highest spot went to our old friend Luo Chen, who sold 1.74 million copies."
"I see." Zhou Yiyang was not surprised by this result: "Luo Chen is not one of the top four traffic stars?"
"Yeah." Bai Yangyu was familiar with these names in the circle: "The Four Most Popular Stars and the Three Golden Flowers are names that have become popular in the past two years. They describe the seven most popular young stars on the Internet today, the so-called top stars.
Luo Chen was quite popular, but there was still a gap between him and the other seven. However, after the 101 competition, the gap between him and these people was getting smaller and smaller.
If you look at the most respected artist value list in the industry, Luo Chen has already reached fourth place, while our Moonlight Girls’ current value list has dropped to 41, and they still suffer from the lack of exposure.
In the fan-favorite super topic rankings, Luo Chen is ranked third and Moonlight Girl is ranked 38th.
Zhou Yiyang scratched his head. How could these two lists be the same as the in-game ladder rankings? When would he finally be able to lead Moonlight Girl to the top of these two lists?
"Having said so much, Mr. Zhou, don't you have any plans to release a new album yet?" Bai Yangyu said, "The songs that Moonlight Girls has released so far can all be made into an EP."
"That's not enough." Zhou Yiyang said stubbornly, "The first album is very important. I'm planning to get them a Golden Melody Award for Best New Artist with this album!"
Bai Yangyu was startled at first, but then felt that this goal, coming from Zhou Yiyang, didn't seem so unrealistic. "I trust your decision, President Zhou. In that case, we should go meet them."
"Well, you should talk to them more about the rules on the red carpet." Zhou Yiyang and Bai Yangyu walked out of the room together.
After Tang Yue and the other three learned from Zhou Yiyang that they were about to become spokespeople for the Morica women's clothing line, they were so happy that they started rolling around on the bed.
"That's enough," Zhou Yiyang said softly, "If you go to tomorrow's awards ceremony in this state, you'll be laughed at. At occasions like this, reporters love taking pictures of female celebrities, so you must pay attention to your manners at all times."
