On May 22, the first day the "Nirvana" album was officially released, due to the suppression of the same type of album "Reincarnation" and the capital market, only 7,652 copies were sold despite the continued decline in reputation.
On the other hand, the "Reincarnation" album has entered its third day of release and still maintains daily album sales of 100,000+.
On May 23, it was reported on the Internet that the CD pressing factory cooperation with Cultural and Creative Entertainment had been terminated, and the supply of albums in stock was insufficient. In order to ensure that the official release could proceed smoothly, Cultural and Creative Entertainment privately delayed the shipment of the pre-sale albums.
This incident spread quickly, especially when some fans who had pre-ordered the album during the pre-sale period posted proof that Cultural and Creative Entertainment had indeed not shipped the album, which put Cultural and Creative Entertainment in a quagmire.
"I ordered the album on the 15th. Why has it been two days since its official release? The album I purchased has not been shipped yet?"
"You may not believe it, but I placed the order yesterday during the sale period and it was delivered early this morning."
"Sure enough, Cultural and Creative Entertainment was not kind and used the album originally prepared for us to make up for the shortage of goods for official release."
"The people who bought later actually got the goods before the people who bought first. It's really funny."
"I have returned it directly. Anyway, you will be able to listen to it on the Internet in a while. It only costs ten yuan to become a member at most. It is more cost-effective than buying an album."
What Cultural Creative Entertainment did caused dissatisfaction among pre-sale music fans. Many fans even directed their anger at Li Youqing and went to her Weibo to accuse this shameless behavior.
Li Youqing naturally tried his best to explain the reason, but it was a pity that the music fans who were driven by the rhythm could not listen. In the end, he got so excited that he simply chose to return the product, quit being a fan, etc.
For a time, Cultural and Creative Entertainment received an influx of return orders, with thousands of return orders in just one day.
Thousands of return orders may not seem like a lot, but in fact the impact they radiate is very serious. For example, the sales of the "Nirvana" album were affected by the return incident the next day, with only 3,521 copies sold.
The sales volume in two days barely exceeded 10,000. This figure is acceptable for a pure newcomer, but if it is placed on the famous Li Youqing, it is simply like rushing to grandma's house.
The album was a failure.
accusations from public opinion.
Li Youqing was deeply hit and fell into autistic state.
Talk less.
Eat a lot of food.
I like to shut myself in my room and be quiet.
These are the manifestations that can be seen when Xiao Nizi is not beautiful and depressed.
Jiang Bei was helpless about this. He could only offer some words of comfort, then picked up his cell phone to chat with Sui Xi, constantly hinting that she should be able to activate the power behind her to survive in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds.
But Sui Xi seemed as if he didn't understand. Instead, he replied deeply apologetically: [I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I failed to protect the young ones. 】
That being said, the game has only just started, so how can we start talking about apologizing?
Jiang Bei replied: [It doesn't matter, I don't blame you for this, you have done enough. And we should not discuss right and wrong now, but we should find ways to save the current situation and let Xiaoyou stand up again.
】
Sui Xi:【But the album has failed.】
If the album fails, it fails!
You're looking for revenge backstage!
Hit him!
"Hint to her." Liangliang, who was lying behind the sofa, leaned his little head and saw this conversation and reminded him.
Jiangbei thought about the sentence for a while before editing and sending it: [The failure of the album can be repeated. We can turn around as long as we resolve the pressure from capital. ]
Sui Xi: [How to solve it? Mr. Jiang’s film and television power in Beijing is huge, and I can’t deal with it.]
Jiangbei: [I believe you can do it. If you still can’t figure it out, just read more of the ten songs I gave you.]/Crazy hints
Sui Xi ended this chat with a lot of questions.
Jiang Bei put down his mobile phone and fell into thinking. He was a little worried in his thinking, worried about whether Suixi could understand the meaning.
"Brother, don't worry. The only way Sui Xi can help Youyou right now is to take her out of the backstage. There is no other way." Liangliang saw this and comforted her.
"I'm just afraid that she won't ask her father for help."
Jiangbei's worries are not unreasonable. Although he has not had much contact with Sui Xi, he can somewhat see the other person's character. If he seeks help from the backstage, Sui Xi might not be wrong.
"If she refuses, the pressure from uncle will increase, and the final result will be to be completely marginalized. Once my sister-in-law is marginalized, won't she break her promise to you, brother? I think with
Her character should be equally impossible to break her promise, right?"
What Liangliang said makes sense.
Since Sui Xi promised to help, he will definitely try his best.
Thinking of this, Jiang Bei's inner worries gradually disappeared.
"I hope it can be successful this time."
To be honest, the plan for his wife to quit the entertainment industry for two years has not been successful. If his father-in-law Li Qiangguo comes on stage this time to solve the problem, this is really a bit difficult for Jiangbei to accept.
It feels like someone has jumped in line to pick a ripe peach.
Of course, in addition to that, there is also the need to clear away the suspicion that he is a traitor.
After all, he targeted his wife and failed to get her out of the entertainment industry for two years. His father-in-law immediately succeeded, which doesn't seem to make sense.
So the best outcome this time is for my father-in-law to fail.
As for the ten songs, they were the remuneration paid by Jiangbei to Sui Xi. After all, this time Cultural and Creative Entertainment was helping at the risk of losing profits. He must make some compensation accordingly and not take advantage of others.
But the funds are not easy to move around, and Suixi is a young rich woman, so there is no need to give money.
After thinking about it, Jiangbei thought that Sui Xi had been involved in the music scene in recent years, so he might as well give her ten high-quality songs to make her popular.
The mention of the ten songs just now also implies that Sui Xi must be responsible for these ten songs and not to live up to his expectations.
Because he couldn't directly tell others to ask his father to suppress Erjing Film and Television.
"By the way, where is your sister-in-law?"
Jiang Bei raised his head and looked around and asked.
"I went to the place where Ruyu, Ruji and the others live. I guess her relatives want my sister-in-law to help find resources for their daughter." Liangliang replied with a shrug.
Since sisters Ruyu and Ruji joined Yihe Film and Television Entertainment as trainees, Li Xuemei and Li Qiangjun contacted Li Youqing's family more frequently.
As for the purpose, it is naturally very simple. I hope she can find some activities and programs for the two sisters. It would be even better if she can release an album and act in movies and TV series.
"Ask her if she will come back for dinner tonight."
"Okay."
At the same time, in the office of the cultural and creative entertainment boss, Sui Xi squatted down and took out a stack of A4 paper from the bottom drawer and opened it, revealing the densely packed staff and lyrics one by one.
Sui Xi slowly turned over the papers, his eyes filled with doubts: "What does Mr. Jiang mean by asking me to read these ten songs?"
"Could it be..."
…
At the end of May, the "Nirvana" album finally entered a bottleneck period with a sales volume of 300,000, one week after its official release. Although the album can still be purchased in the market, the number can be said to be almost negligible.
However, the sales volume of "Reincarnation", which was released in the arena at the same time, was gratifying, with sales exceeding one million copies. Yan Xien also became the first singer to have a CD album that exceeded one million copies this year.
In addition to its achievements in the record market, the last of the three movies invested by Erjing Film and Television since last year, "God of Gamblers", was also released in early May. It finally won the box office championship of the month with a box office of 1.3 billion, which was also the first of the three movies as of June
The first movie to hit a box office of over 1 billion.
So far, Erjing Film and Television's three movie plans last year ended perfectly with the high box office of "Tiny Times" with 1.12 billion, "Infernal Affairs" with 1.9 billion, and "God of Gamblers" with 1.3 billion respectively.
All three movies have exceeded 1 billion in box office, which has injected a stimulant into the Chinese film market. The entire entertainment industry and even movie fans believe that the Chinese film market has ushered in a real era of high box office. Movies with a box office of over 1 billion are no longer like
It was so far out of reach before.
As the sole investor, Erjing Film and Television has become the ultimate beneficiary of the plan. Not to mention the huge benefits brought by the three films, Erjing Cinema Line, its only listed company, has been soaring due to the outstanding performance of Erjing Film and Television, and its stock price has continued to rise.
It has skyrocketed and has now exceeded the 30 billion mark, which is even better than the original Sanchuan Cinema Line.
Including Erjing Film and Television and Canadian brand clothing, the current market value of the entire Erjing Group has exceeded 50 billion, becoming a new aircraft carrier.
Influence, strong capital, and the success of film and television songs have made Erjing Film and Television the first choice for artists and directors in the entertainment industry who want to sign contracts.
For a time, Erjing Film and Television was crowded, and artists who wanted to join Erjing Film and Television lined up in a long queue.
Faced with the influx of artists, Jiang Bei and even his father-in-law Li Qiangguo all had the mentality of recruiting as many people as they could.
The two people's ideas are also very consistent. They both hope to recruit well-known artists into Erjing Film and Television to use them as pawns to suppress Li Youqing in the end.
However, what the two have different ideas is that his father-in-law Li Qiangguo wants to directly use his huge power to crush his daughter and make her quit the entertainment industry.
Jiangbei's idea was to abdicate his father-in-law Li Qiangguo first, and then take matters into his own hands.
Of course, the two had the same ultimate goal, so the plan was passed smoothly.
Throughout June, there was an influx of film and television talents from Beijing and Beijing, with 14 well-known first-tier artists joining, 45 second-tier artists joining, and 106 third-tier artists joining.
I won’t accept it as a trainee because it’s meaningless.
Erjing Film and Television does not need to train unfamous trainees.
In addition to selecting artists to join, Jiangbei also followed his father-in-law Li Qiangguo throughout June and secretly used Erjing Film and Television to snatch the resources of his wife Li Youqing.
For example, Cultural and Creative Entertainment helped Li Youqing win the endorsement.
Take it away and let its artists take over.
For example, Cultural and Creative Entertainment helped Li Youqing win commercial activities.
Take it away and let its artists take over.
For example, Cultural and Creative Entertainment helped Li Youqing win the film and television series.
Take it away and let its artists take over.
For Erjing Film and Television, the company now needs money, people, and strength. It is not easy to steal an artist's resources.
Erjing Film and Television's approach meant that Li Youqing did not receive any events, endorsements, programs, or film and television scripts throughout June.
In this era of rapid development of the Internet, stars change with each passing day. Once they disappear for a little longer, it means a decrease in popularity.
Although a month is not long, it is enough for Li Youqing's popularity to drop quickly.
According to the Baidu hot search index, the number of hot searches related to Li Youqing in May was more than 5 million, with the highest point reaching 7.6 million on the first day of the pre-sale release of "Nirvana".
By June, Li Youqing's popularity began to decline, and by the end of June it was less than 500,000.
This is the impact of not having a work.
If no one pays attention to you, you will be forgotten over time.
Faced with this data, Li Qiangguo was very happy and sent out his third 200-yuan celebratory red envelope in the black fan giant group: [I wish Youyou in advance to leave the entertainment industry.]
Li Qiangguo grabbed 76.4 yuan.
Jiangbei grabbed 123.5 yuan.
I received the red envelope humbly.
"How could your luck be any worse?" Jiang Bei couldn't help but ask after seeing the almost identical ending for the third time.
Liang Liang, who had just returned home from summer vacation, shrugged helplessly when he heard this and said, "You may not believe it, but this is also a skill."
"That's true." Jiang Bei nodded in agreement: "It's not easy to have good luck all the time, and it's even more difficult to have bad luck all the time."
Liangliang couldn't refute, so she picked up her phone and started playing by herself, refusing to talk about this topic.
Jiang Bei was in a good mood after grabbing more than 100 red envelopes. He took a look at the time and it was time to cook. He put down his phone and got up and went to the kitchen to prepare for cooking. As he walked, he reminded: "Call your sister-in-law and ask her when she will be cooking."
return."
With the failure of the "Nirvana" album and the continuous secret actions of Erjing Film and Television in June, Li Youqing spent the entire June relatively leisurely. He regularly went to Cultural and Creative Entertainment to check in to work every day, and then stayed in the company all day until he got off work.
go home.
In the first few days, Jiangbei followed. Later, because Erjing Film and Television had too many things to do in June, and Liangliang had an art exam in June, he could not fully help Erjing Film and Television's operations, so his father-in-law Li Qiangguo handed over this task to
Jiangbei, let him be the executor.
It has to be said that Jiang is still very old, and Li Qiangguo's concealment has completely wiped him out. Even if the matter is exposed, there is no way to trace it to him.
Poor Jiangbei had no choice but to take over the task of handling Erjing Film and Television.
But in this case, he would not be able to follow the cultural and creative entertainment side.
So for nearly a month, Li Youqing went to Cultural and Creative Entertainment alone every day.
"Creak~"
At this time, the door suddenly opened, and Li Youqing, dressed in casual clothes, walked in from the outside.
"What's coming back?"
Liangliang pursed her lips and replied: "Sister-in-law, my brother said he misses you and asked me to ask you when you will come back."
"How come you, a young girl, are so glib all day long?"
Hearing this, Li Youqing glared at Liang Liang, hung her bag on the hanger, put on her shoes and walked happily towards the kitchen.
Xiao Nizi seems to be in a good mood today?
"Why are you so happy today? Did you find money on the street?"
