105 A dark horse born out of thin air

The ten-day festival is coming to an end, and the early July sun is still blazing, and the big fireballs flying high above evaporate every shred of moisture in the air.

But even in such a hot day, there are many people coming in and out of the building of Yifeng Records. In addition to some of the staff, there are also many young people who dream of stardom every year to try the opportunity here.

However, most young people with dreams end up in failure.

The boss of Yifeng Records, Wu Yupeng, was sitting in his office at this time, listening to the reports of his subordinates, while flipping through a pile of information, and there was also a trace of joy between his eyebrows.

"Boss, that's all for some of the recent arrangements from other departments. ”

A young man in a black suit with several plans in his hands. Handed it to Wu Yupeng's desk.

"Well, you go first. ”

Wu Yupeng was looking at the information in his hand intently at this time, so he didn't raise his head and said.

"Okay, boss. ”

The young man nodded respectfully, ready to walk out of his boss's office.

"Well... Wait!" Wu Yupeng suddenly raised his head and stopped his subordinates who were about to push the door out, "Asking the Enterprise Publicity Department to increase the recent investment is to increase the publicity of its artist Bai Xiaosheng." Ask them to come up with a few eye-catching plans, and bring them to me for review when the time comes. ”

"Well, I immediately went to the Enterprise Publicity Department to convey the instructions. ”

The young man replied, then pushed open the office door and closed it gently.

Not long after the young man went out, Li Yue pushed open the door and walked in, holding a thermos cup in his hand, which was soaked in a light brown warm liquid, and there were a few pieces of ginseng floating in it.

"Oh, boss, I'll soak it for you. ”

She put the ginseng tea on Wu Yupeng's desk, pouted playfully, and sat down on the sofa chair opposite her boss.

Wu Yupeng took the ginseng tea casually and took a sip, and then smashed his mouth: "Last time I went to the United States, this old classmate specially got American ginseng from Wisconsin, and it tasted good to make tea." ”

"Isn't it all a bit of a sweet and bitter taste?"

Li Yue pursed her lips and signaled that she didn't feel that there was anything good about soaking in water with this kind of thing.

"You..."

Wu Yupeng smiled helplessly.

"By the way, boss, Bai Xiaosheng's record sales this time..."

Li Yue raised her eyebrows and said in a low voice.

"I know what you want to say..."Saying this, Wu Yupeng's eyes also became a little serious, "Bai Xiaosheng's release this time, whether it is a single record or a title album, the sales have exceeded my expectations. A week's sales have actually reached this point. ”

Bai Xiaosheng's little girl really did not disappoint him, but exceeded a certain estimate. The other party is really a talented singer, not comparable to those ordinary people.

Li Yue looked at Wu Yupeng with some excitement and said with a smile: "What did the boss expect at first?"

She was also a little curious about what level Bai Xiaosheng was in the boss's heart.

"I expected it to be more than 120,000 copies at the beginning, 20,000 more than Kiki's sales in the first week..." When he said this, Wu Yupeng shook his head again, and said with some surprise: "Which Cheng thinks that Bai Xiaosheng is really a dark horse, the sales of single records alone have reached 100,000 copies, and the sales of the main album have exceeded 150,000 copies! You must know that this is the first week of sales!" If you refer to the sales of 1.3 million copies of Kiki's new album last year, Bai Xiaosheng is likely to break one million copies in half a year this time, and may even reach two million copies. ”

Li Yue said: "I know that if it can really reach the sales of two million records in this half year, Bai Xiaosheng's status in the music industry will definitely be a second-tier singer." She is still so young and has unlimited potential, and her future star journey will definitely be smooth sailing. ”

When she said this, Li Yue said in that tone of envy: "Sure enough, genius is different from ordinary people, she is the same as Kiki, the debut of the two of them rose like a comet, and they surpassed many newcomers and even famous singers at once." ”

"Comet? That's not a good metaphor, comets come and go quickly, to really stay in the sky, only stars can do it, but if you want to become a superstar, even if Bai Xiaosheng keeps this momentum, he may not be able to reach that level. ”

Wu Yupeng shook his head and said so.

However, he then continued: "But Bai Xiaosheng is now the most qualified and potential among all the artists in our Yifeng Company. Although her singing skills are average, her original ability and emotional ability are incomparable to even Kiki. Maybe five years later, there will really be a diva-level singer in our company!"

Li Yue nodded: "I hope so, then I can also become a witness to the birth of a legend at that time." ”

After saying this, she paused slightly for a moment, and said in a low voice: "But boss, the objections of other high-level executives of the company, when this sales data appears, it should be suppressed, right? After all, there were many people who were dissatisfied with the boss's vigorous investment in Bai Xiaosheng. ”

"That's nature, those people are the type of grass on the wall, the wind blows on both sides. It's not that I've received some benefits from other artists in the company, so I'm very active now to give some artists opportunities. However, in the entertainment industry, no matter how many small actions are useless, even if there are more opportunities and publicity times, it is still okay if the public does not recognize it, in the final analysis, it still depends on hard power, and the company's investment can only give them a platform to show. ”

Speaking of the small actions of some artists in the company, Wu Yupeng also felt a little helpless.

The entertainment industry is a place where unspoken rules prevail, and as a businessman who has been in this field for many years, he naturally knows it. However, in order to make the company better and faster healthy development, it is necessary to pinch out this unhealthy trend.

Other companies engage in unspoken rules, and their companies will follow suit?

Wu Yupeng, who used to be also a musician, hated this phenomenon very much, and knew that some positive images must be erected, at least Yifeng Company tried its best to achieve this kind of clear atmosphere to gain more public support.

Reducing the outbreak of scandals is also one of the ways to effectively improve the company's reputation. However, in recent times, some other high-level executives are ready to move, and they are also close to some of their artists in private.

This can easily lead to the emergence of vicious competition, and it is also easy to affect the emotions of other artists who do not rely on unspoken rules, so Wu Yupeng has also been secretly observing recently, as long as these people have out-of-line behavior, they will immediately clean up the portal, so as not to be exposed by some media when they get it, and it will lead to a lot of losses for the company.

"Yes, this time Bai Xiaosheng is on the boss's platform, showing an amazing gesture, now I see who else has two words? It is estimated that in a short period of time, Bai Xiaosheng's popularity will catch up with Kiki. ”

Li Yue nodded in agreement, knowing that the company has not been calm recently. However, with the birth of Bai Xiaosheng's dark horse, all opposition voices will be suppressed.

Now the company's decision is to mainly promote Bai Xiaosheng and Kiki, two artists, and no one can change this fact.

Only with strong strength can we get more resource tilt. (To be continued.) )
