Xu Dongsheng smoked cigarettes one after another, coughing while smoking.
He actually doesn't like smoking very much, but for some reason, he really wants to smoke in the past two days.
In the early morning of April 7th.
The weather is a bit cold.
The assistant knocked on Xu Dongsheng's office, and then anxiously handed Xu Dongsheng the album's daily sales report.
Xu Dongsheng waved his hand and signaled for his assistant to go down first.
The assistant breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Xu Dongsheng's somewhat impatient expression, and quickly bent down and turned around respectfully to leave.
It was so depressing in Xu Dongsheng's office that he couldn't breathe.
When the assistant just left the office, he happened to take a look at Li Duojun.
"Xiao Liu, what's wrong?"
"No...it's okay..."
“What are the album sales today?”
"I...I don't know, you'd better go in and ask Mr. Xu..."
"..."
Li Duojun frowned when he saw Xiao Liu leaving as if he was running away, and an even worse thought came to his mind.
The sales of his albums in the past two days are indeed not bad, but compared with Wang Hao's "Fly Higher", they are still firmly outclassed...
It’s true that Wang Hao is a newcomer, and “Fly Higher” is his first album.
but……
Lu Yuan's advertisement was really too lethal, and it was done at the height of popularity...
Therefore, there are very few people in the whole of China who do not know "Fly Higher".
There is nothing Li Duojun can do about this. Not only Li Duojun, even the "Jiang Lun" company and the Korean company combined can't do anything.
After all, in a sense, these are factors beyond human control.
"Come in."
"Mr. Xu..."
"Oh, sit down."
"good."
Li Duojun felt that something was wrong with Xu Dongsheng's expression, so he smartly sat aside and watched Xu Dongsheng compare 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 himself!
On normal days, Xu Dongsheng would have a smile and expectation on his face when he faced him, but in the past two days, Xu Dongsheng's smile and expectation disappeared, and what he got instead was silence and a reluctant nod.
The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
Li Dajun can understand 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 anything."
"Two million albums per day..."
"Two million!" Li Duojun was stunned at first, then showed an expression of surprise.
He suddenly became excited!
Two million albums sold daily!
This is totally good news. Could it be that Mr. Xu is playing a trick of suppressing desires and then rising up?
"It belongs to Wang Hao. As for us...our album only has 800,000, less than 1 million..." Xu Dongsheng suddenly shook his head after looking at Li Duojun's excited expression.
"What!" Li Duojun's smile gradually disappeared.
A very depressing feeling rose from his chest, making him feel suffocated.
Two million compared to 800,000, the gap is really...
Somewhat big!
"I thought this data was fake before, so I kept comparing it in all aspects. But unfortunately, the information given to me by various channels is true. We indeed only have 800,000..." Xu Dongsheng stubbed out his cigarette butt.
, watching Xu Dongsheng silently.
He originally wanted to smile, but now he can't smile at all, and he doesn't even want to pat Li Dajun on the shoulder.
Lee Da-joon's album did not hit the streets.
At least……
There is no problem at all in making a small profit back to your capital.
pity……
This album is really not as good as Wang Hao’s album. Not only that, it’s even less popular than Wang Hao’s “Fly Higher” on Weibo hot searches and major music websites. It’s even more confusing.
What's wrong is that Li Dajun's title song "I'm Coming" is completely inferior to Wang Hao's second original rock song "My Time" in Wang Hao's album...
There is not a slight difference at all. All data shows that the two songs are completely different.
"Did we lose?"
"Listen to the songs on his album, don't listen to the song "Fly Higher"..."
"Why?"
"'Fly Higher' is the title song written by Lu Yuan for him...it will have some influence on you after listening to it."
"good."
Li Dajun took the CD from Xu Dongsheng, then put on headphones and listened next to it.
Wang Hao's voice was crazy and hoarse, but at the same time it had a sense of passionate impact...
This song "My Time" simply roared out an indescribable emotional melody, which made Li Dajun's heart tremble as soon as he heard 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", were all other songs composed by him independently?"
"yes."
"I understand." Li Duojun stood up and looked at Xu Dongsheng silently.
He didn't know what to say.
At this moment, his mood was very complicated, and at the same time, the arrogance deep in his heart had gone to nowhere.
Wang Hao!
At this time, he stood up and turned around to leave.
Many times, the blows come one after another.
There is a very ridiculous feeling at this moment.
Before coming to China, he thought his biggest opponent was Lu Yuan. After hearing that Lu Yuan was banned by Hollywood, he felt that he had every chance to surpass Lu Yuan and crush Lu Yuan severely.
But after the Spring Festival Gala incident, he suddenly realized that something was not quite 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 arrogance.
But……
Just when he was about to see the dawn of victory, Lu Yuan suddenly came out!
After fighting out...
He found that all the enthusiasm and efforts were in vain, and he even suspected that his efforts in the past two months were all a joke.
What left him even more speechless was what happened next.
Immediately afterwards, this guy named Wang Hao, who had always been very low-key before, suddenly came out.
The album suddenly hit him!
Then, after listening to Wang Hao's album just now, he realized absurdly that he still had to fight with Wang Hao, and he still lost in the fight with Wang Hao!
I have talent.
But this person named Wang Hao seems to be talented, and he is very suitable for rock music.
I have to admit that my album is still a bit inferior after all.
Lu Yuan?
Compared with Lu Yuan?
Now that I can't even play with Lu Yuan's younger brother, how can I compare with Lu Yuan?
Just at this moment...
"You have completely lost the energy you had before."
"I lost...I have to admit that I lost once." Li Duojun turned around and looked at Xu Dongsheng.
"Are you 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 are not talented enough. I will pay someone to help you recreate an album. It doesn't matter if it is not popular enough. You just need to maintain your arrogance. When facing the media, you must maintain the same character as before. Even,
Starting from tomorrow, you will officially declare full-scale war with Lu Yuan!" Xu Dongsheng suddenly tore the album report to pieces, and then came to Li Duojun.
"I……"
"The album lost, but we still have a movie! I thought about it and changed the movie you wrote to "Red Dragon" written by Sovia!"
"Sovia?" Li Duojun was stunned.
"Yes, that's Sovia, the screenwriter of last year's "Dream Traveler"! The box office success of "Dream Traveler" is obvious to all, right?"
"I……"
"In "Red Dragon," I invested 220 million, which is higher than "Dream Traveler." At the same time, I am cooperating with the Hollywood superstar Anile, and you will be the leading actor!" Xu Dongsheng stared at Li Duojun.
"..." Li Duojun suddenly felt a creepy feeling.
He saw a sense of madness like a gambler's in Xu Dongsheng's eyes, and this madness made him a little shocked.
From the time he met Xu Dongsheng until now, this was the first time he had seen Xu Dongsheng look like this.
"I will build a platform for you. From today on, you must follow the road I paved 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 Pianist of the Sea"! You have to start a fight and provoke a war, you know?"
"I...I know!" Li Duojun lowered his head.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that he had no way to turn back.
"That's good! Go down."
"good."
Xu Dongsheng watched Li Duojun turn away step by step, and he suddenly narrowed his eyes.
When all plans and plans were shattered by Lu Yuan, Xu Dongsheng simply stopped planning.
In this crazy era, he completely became a gambler.
He must bet on Lee Da-joon to win.
It would be nice to win even once.
At this moment, his phone rang.
A few minutes later.
"Boom!"
Xu Dongsheng, who has always been good-tempered, smashed his phone into pieces after receiving this call. Computer version::/
He was breathing heavily from his chest.
Suppress that flame hard.
Then……
He opens the website's news channel.
"Shocking! According to the latest news, Lu Yuan has invited world-class pianists Edward and Kennedy and others to join the cast of "The Pianist on the Sea"..."
"Most of the top ten pianists were included in Lu Yuan's "The Pianist on the Sea". This is...a movie that is enough to shock the piano industry!"
"..."
Countless news comes one after another...
"Lu Yuan!"
"Lu Yuan!"
"..."
Xu Dongsheng muttered these two words, unable to tell whether he was angry or helpless.
"Declaration of war!"
He clenched his fists for a while and finally calmed down!
………………………………
noon.
"Woooo..."
"I...what the hell did I do?"
"..."
Lu Yuan woke up from his sleep and was stunned when he saw the written contracts one after another.
"Are you awake?"
"Yes...what do these mean?"
"These are what you asked me to write for you yesterday."
"What? Me yesterday?"
"Um……"
"Wait a minute, I signed them to my "The Pianist" crew?"
