Huaguo Daily: In the Hero Battle World Finals held at Huadu National Stadium yesterday, Huadu's Zhiliao Team defeated the veteran world powerhouse Xianghe Team with a score of 4 to 1 and successfully won the championship. Congratulations to the Zhiliao Team and congratulations to the Huaguo Division.
Although this news item only had a few dozen words, what kind of media outlet was this? The Huaguo Daily, established nearly a century ago, is recognized as China's leading official media outlet.
As soon as this news came out, it was like opening a box of rainbow candies. All kinds of media, big and small, traditional, electronic, official media, and self-media all gave detailed reports on the event.
After all, the e-sports industry has been around for many years, but it has never been recognized by mainstream society. This is the first time that the national media has spoken out for e-sports, which directly ignited the Internet.
The news that Zhiliao Team won the championship immediately topped the internet’s trending searches.
All media related to games and e-sports naturally reported on this matter from a methodological perspective.
Because there have been calls in recent years to include e-sports in sports competitions, the sports section naturally did not want to lag behind. Not only did they report on the competition, but they also analyzed the prospects of e-sports as a sports competition.
In addition, the hot news section even reports local news from the hometowns of the Zhiliao team players from various angles.
As soon as I saw the entertainment news section, I couldn't sit still. Usually, our entertainment industry is the easiest to stir up topics and create hype. How can we be left out of such a big national topic this time?
If there is no news, we will dig out news that is relevant to us.
It turns out there's no need to dig hard at all. The grand performance by the Zhiliao team before the game was performed by someone from our entertainment industry, right?
I don't quite remember the name, but the face looks familiar, so I'll look it up right away.
Yan Zi's information soon appeared on the desks of editors-in-chief of major entertainment media.
The contestant of the Century Supernova Contest had excellent singing and acting skills, but because of a mistake during the performance, he only got eighth place.
Now he is signed to Tianfeng Entertainment, and his first personal digital single album has achieved sales of several million, which is considered a successful debut.
Yo, also played a role in the new drama of the famous director Tian Wenbo. Now the drama has passed the review and is waiting to be released.
A digital EP album has just been released recently and is selling well.
In addition, there is also some information about Cao Ge, Shan'er, Si'er and even Feng Xiaoyun.
After all, although Brother Cao and his friends are not very famous and are just a low-level accompaniment band, they have been in the music industry for so many years, so many of them are familiar faces.
And what about Feng Xiaoyun? Not only is he handsome, he also wrote the lyrics and music for many of Yan Zi's songs. And what's with that? He's also Yan Zi's assistant. What's that? This is the topic.
Anything about the entertainment industry could fill an 800-word essay, let alone so much. So what are you waiting for? Report while the heat is on! That's all traffic!
As a result, all kinds of news came out from entertainment media and self-media of all sizes.
"The hidden gem of the supernova of the century? A rising supernova in the entertainment industry!"
"The most powerful new artist of the year, whose first digital single sold millions of copies, who can challenge him?"
"Sing with all your heart and help Team Zhiliao win the world championship!"
These are relatively positive reports and praises.
"Why did she have to step onto the big stage of the World Finals?"
"Century Supernova Mentor: Why did I eliminate Yan Zi?"
"Experts say: Yan Zi's lyrics, music, and singing skills are all mediocre. The fact that he can achieve such sales shows that the public's aesthetic standards are flawed!"
Most of these doubts and even slanders come from boring tabloids and self-media.
"What is it that makes him willing to be a little assistant!"
"Is this company suppressing him, or is there something else going on? The assistant has written many hit songs."
"The inspirational song of the year, 'Cicada,' was written in less than an hour at the airport by my talented assistant Feng Xiaoyun!"
"Feng Xiaoyun and Yan Zi always go home together at night and go to work together in the morning. They are suspected to be living together!"
These are different ways of making up news from Feng Xiaoyun's perspective to attract traffic.
Xu Linling closed the webpage with a bad taste in her mouth. Her secretary had called her last night to tell her that the sales of Yan Zi's album "Cicada 3" had skyrocketed. At one point, the company's sales department even thought it was a data error. It was not until they checked the payment account and saw a large amount of small income pouring in that they believed it was true.
Humph, you, Feng Xiaoyun, live next door to Yan Zi, so why can't I, Xu Linling, live there? After calming down, Xu Linling picked up the phone.
"Sister Chen, congratulations! Yan Zi's EP is selling like crazy right now, and the sales figures are skyrocketing every minute. The operations manager of Yun Sheng's music studio just called us personally, hoping we could put Yan Zi's performance of 'Cicada' on their platform last night. He's even offering us the biggest concessions on the sales share."
You have to know that China has very strict control over piracy now, and people are used to buying legitimate songs to listen to. After all, a song is not expensive at 2 or 3 yuan. People who don't listen to music often have dozens or hundreds of songs in their song library, and it's not uncommon for them to have thousands of songs.
Sister Chen was lazily sleeping on the bed, rubbing her temples while answering the phone. After winning the championship yesterday, Sun Chi insisted on treating everyone, and the location was chosen to be the bar of Feng Xiaoyun's "friend". Everyone was very excited, and Sister Chen also drank a lot of wine, which caused her, who was usually smart and capable, to reveal another side of herself.
"Linling, I mentioned this to Feng Xiaoyun yesterday. He and Yan Zi said that this song was originally written for this competition, and now that it's become popular, they hope to release it for free."
"Of course, we can still do Yunshengtingge a favor and give them the exclusive license for this song. This means that if you want to listen to it, you can only listen to it for free on Yunshengtingge."
"Free?" Xu Linling was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll contact the operations manager of Yunshengtingge and ask him to release the live version first. You can ask Yan Zi and the others to go to the studio and record a version while it's still popular."
You should know that there are free songs, but they are very rare. They are usually for major natural disasters or prayer songs sung by celebrities. Most of the free songs are of poor quality and no one would buy them even if they were available.
"Don't worry, we'll find a recording studio in Huadu this afternoon to record the song, and then we'll collaborate with the Zhiliao team to shoot a music video, which will be their team's promotional song. The price they offered is very good, and I'll send it back to the company after signing the contract today. If the progress is fast, we'll go back the day after tomorrow, and if it's slow, it will be the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, Sister Chen, I'll throw you a celebration party when I get back. I ran into Xue Congfu at work this morning, and his face was darker than my tires. It was so satisfying. Hehehehe!"
"Okay, that's it for now. Call me if you need anything. I'll get some more sleep! Bye!"
Xu Linling hung up the phone, thought for a moment, then picked it up again and called her secretary: "Shu Hua, can you help me find a real estate agent..."
