On December 18, 1997, Sony Records held a grand signing ceremony for Sima Duoduo to join in a hotel in Shuntianfu, which caused a sensation in the domestic entertainment industry for a while.

At this point, everyone knows that the five elements of Wusu, which was once flourishing and known as the first singing troupe in China, have completely collapsed.

Although in the mouth of the Chinese record film, Wuxing Wusu has not been disbanded, and the follow-up company will continue to sign new people to join in and form a new Wuxing Wusu, and the original "backbone" and "soul figure" Zhou Pingping is still there, and will serve as the captain of the new Wuxing Wusu, but this can only be a child, not to mention the inside of the music world, that is, many fans understand that the real era that belongs to Wuxing Wusu is over.

At the signing ceremony of Sima Duoduo joining Sony Records, Kazuichi Watanabe, the general manager of Sony Records, generously announced the next solo flight plan tailored for Sima Duoduo.

Three years, three albums, a single album production cost of no less than two million, and, in order to create Sima Duoduo, Sony Records will invite famous artists to tailor some good songs for her, her first solo album, and even Sony Records' music director Xie Mingyuan himself as a producer, responsible for carefully crafting.

And at the signing site, Kazuichi Watanabe also revealed that Sima Duoduo will also play an extremely important role in Sony Records' next global linkage plan, and the company will consider creating a Japanese album for her. And in the future, considering that Sima Duoduo's own conditions are extremely good, the company will unite with a number of production companies and film and television companies to promote Sima Duoduo to move forward in the film and television industry. Strive to do so within three years. Sima Duoduo has become a top film and television star in China.

Arguably. Sony's ambitions are great, and the prospects are extremely attractive, but after learning about Sony's series of plans, there are different opinions within the music industry.

Some people applauded and looked forward to it, while others made all kinds of disdain and ridicule.

What is Sima Duoduo's greatest strength? Looks beautiful, and in addition, dances well.

However, can you become a movie star if you look good?

Are you kidding!

Does she have acting skills?

Moreover, not to mention film and television stars, just with her singing skills, which are not outstanding even in the group of Five Elements and Wusu, as a singer, she is still uncertain what her performance will be after flying solo!

You know, money invested. It's just one of the prerequisites for the success of the album, necessary. But it's not sufficient, it doesn't mean that if you invest two million, you will definitely be able to create a popular album!

Singing is not a money game, in the end, it is still an art!

After Qi Jie learned the news, she also ran over to ask Li Qian and Liao Liao, in this regard, Liao Liao just shrugged her shoulders and didn't say a word, of course, it was because she was in a good mood recently, super good, super good.

And Li Qian just said calmly: "Wait and see, maybe next year and the year after tomorrow, a few newcomers on our side will be trampled on by others if they want to release an album!"

When Qi Jie heard this, he also shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Maybe! I'm really looking forward to having a good touch with Sony!"

…………

Qi Jie's words were not joking.

In the blink of an eye, on December 20, Wang Jingxue returned to Shuntian Mansion.

The next day, Minghu Culture Company also chose a hotel and held a large-scale signing ceremony for Xie Bing, Wang Jingxue and Sun Ruoxuan to join. And, it seems that intentionally or unintentionally, Qi Jie still has some-for-tat intentions with Sony, so it was also at the signing ceremony that she also announced the plans for Minghu Culture in the new year.

Xie Bing, Wang Jingxue and Sun Ruoxuan all joined as individuals, each of them is an independent signed artist of the company, and the company will also tailor a solo album for them in the future, but at the same time, the three of them will form a new group called "Rose Power" and sign a separate contract with the company.

Naturally, the company has a series of plans to build "Rose Power", but it is mainly focused on singing. For the personal development of the three of them, the company also has a series of long-term plans, but it is not just around the singing career.

In addition, Qi Jie specifically mentioned that the addition of the three former members of the Five Elements and the signing of the new group "Rose Power" are all five-year contracts.

In addition, Qi Jie also announced the company's record release plan for the new year on behalf of Minghu Culture Company.

At the end of March, the first album of the four major beauty bands "Fake Monk" will be officially released and released nationwide.

In May, Liao Liao's new album "Woman Flower" was released.

In July, He Runqing's new album was released.

In September, the first album of the new group Rose Power was released.

In November, there will be a new person signed by the company who will release his first album.

In addition to this, there is an album with a release date to be determined.

As soon as this record release plan was announced by Qi Jie, at the time, the reporters of various media present were stunned, and after the news spread, it quickly caused huge controversy inside and outside the music world.

One year, five albums, an average of one every two months, this is not a problem, the arrangement is very appropriate, several points in time are also just right, for a record company, at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, to make such an album release plan for the next year, it is understandable, it is purely a normal business arrangement. However, before 1998 arrived, he announced all his album release plans for the new year in advance, which was the first time in the domestic music industry!

Because before that, although the record companies would definitely negotiate with each other in order to seek a longer sales time and achieve better sales results, everyone tried to avoid each other, but most of them were semi-underground, and they were secretly communicating with each other, and they knew each other that they were staggered, that is.

For example, Zhao Xinfu personally called Minghu to discuss, and made it clear that he hoped to misdevelop and launch He Runqing's new album, which is already very rare.

At that time, the first was that Zhao Xinfu was smart. This call is a phone call. There is a lot of discussion. expressed his respect for the side of Minghu culture, which is considered to be a good fate, so that even if he wants to refuse, he is embarrassed, and the second is that He Runqing wanted to release it at that time, it was an album that changed his style, and before the results were achieved, no one dared to pack a ticket and say that it would be successful.

So, Zhao Xinfu made that phone call. The two sides can be regarded as having crossed the Ming Road, and Minghu Culture is also very face-saving to delay the release time of He Runqing's new album, giving Zhao Xinfu's album nearly a month more time to sell alone.

So like now, the new year has not yet arrived, and Minghu Culture has directly opened the hole cards, what does this mean?

Since it has been announced, for a company like Minghu Culture, and a company that is quite influential and influential in the industry, he still needs a little face. There's no way he'll be able to reschedule again!

On the other hand, Qi Jie announced this album release plan in advance. It is equivalent to Minghu Culture issuing a notice to the entire music world: In the next five months, we will be gone!

It doesn't matter who you are or what company you are, if you want to release an album, you either have to be interesting and stagger with our release time, or, let's just touch it!

There is no doubt that this decision is very bold and domineering, but it is also very risky!

For example, as one of the most powerful male singers in the domestic music scene today, Zhao Xinfu has not announced his album plan for the new year, so what if he originally chose July?

It would be nice if he was willing to reschedule, such as to August, or to June.

But what if he's not willing to reschedule?

And the release plan announced by Minghu Culture in advance is obviously impossible to change temporarily, and it is impossible to slap yourself in the face, so there is only ...... Touch it!

When the time comes, in July, he will bump into He Runqing.

Of course, this time, it is no longer He Runqing, who has an unknown future, and He Runqing at this time is already a best-selling diva who has completed a gorgeous turn!

So, He Runqing VS Zhao Xinfu!

Will He Runqing definitely win? Not necessarily! But will Zhao Xinfu definitely be able to overpower He Runqing? Not necessarily!

However, Minghu culture dared to come so clearly!

In addition, in March, there may be Feng Feifei VS the Four Beauty Bands.

What about May? It could be Li Xinru VS Liao Liao?

But it may also be Hu Yang VS Liao Liao!

Or, is it Li Xinru VS Liao Liao VS Hu Yang?

Then, in September, Liu Mingliang prefers to release albums in September, and the range of one month before and after this time period is also the time for Huang Yuqing, who is becoming more and more popular, to release albums.

Moreover, considering that there was Liao Liao in May, facing such an absolute diva who almost didn't even have a challenge, last year, everyone avoided it, especially female singers, almost who was on and who died. Therefore, in the month to a month and a half after the release of Liao Liao's new album, singers with a little ambition in the music industry must be avoided, so that in the past two years, in those one or two months, except for Liao Liao's big tree, the entire music industry has almost no grass!

And those who were squeezed out and scared away by Liao Liao, such as Li Xinru and Hu Yang, are likely to rob July, August and September...... There are already He Runqing and Zhao Xinfu in July, and they should also be avoided, so if so many people squeeze into August and September, it is obvious that the new combination "Rose Power" will face many strong opponents!

But the problem is that although the Rose Power is only a brand-new combination, the members of its combination are all from the first five elements, so this new combination will largely be subconsciously defined by insiders as another five elements.

What's more, this time the producer of their new album is almost ironclad Li Qian!

So, Li Qian, add the power of roses...... Even if it is as red as Liu Mingming, as red as Huang Yuqing, as red as Hu Yang and Li Xinru, will you dare to fight hard?

…………

There was an uproar, controversy, mixed reviews, and discussions.

However, discussing and discussing, whether it is the media or people in the music industry, they gradually found that although Minghu Culture is so bold to open all the hole cards directly, but in the five months since he announced the occupation, no one dares to go, and no one is willing to shake it!

In today's domestic music scene, Liao Liao is the one standing at the top, and no one dares to touch it, so this has no discussion value. Whether she chooses it in May or July, in fact, there is no difference, everyone will definitely avoid it!

Even if Minghu Culture doesn't announce her new album release plan in advance, other record companies will definitely inquire about it and try their best to avoid her when they make release plans!

And under Liao Liao, there are many big names.

Among the male singers, Zhao Xinfu is thriving, although Liu Mingliang said that he suffered Waterloo last year, but the new album released at the end of October this year still shows a strong background, and the sales results are quite good, showing that his strength is still there, so the two of them are the two top figures among the male singers.

Among the female singers, in addition to Liao Liao, the first one is He Runqing, who used to have a Wuxing Wusu, which was enough to stand side by side with her, but now, the Wuxing Wusu has been scattered, the future of the new Wuxing Wusu is uncertain, and the rose power combination has not yet spoken, and it is not easy to position before it has been tested by the market.

Therefore, Liu Mingming, Zhao Xinfu, and He Runqing, these three people, behind Liao Liao, are considered the second group.

In addition, Hu Yang , Huang Yuqing among male singers, Zhou Yan among female singers, Feng Feifei, Li Xinru, and Zhen Zhen, who doesn't know when the next album will come out, can be regarded as the third group.

As for Zhou Feng, as well as Zhou Mingyu, who suddenly became popular this year, although he is currently popular, the time of popularity is too short, and the foundation is not solid enough, so for the time being, he can only rank further behind.

So, you just think about it, Liao Liaoba lives for a May, no problem, He Runqing occupies July, although Zhao Xinfu and Liu Mingliang are qualified to touch, but will they touch it openly? What if they lose? As for the others, I'm sorry, you are not qualified enough, if you have to touch, there is a chance that your head will be broken and bleeding, and even, it is estimated that your own company will not agree!

Therefore, if you think about it carefully, you can understand that He Runqing's July is probably stable.

And as long as May and July are stabilized, Liao Liao and He Runqing, the two queens, will be even more invincible!

As a result, in the golden half of record sales, Minghu Culture announced that it would monopolize half of it!

As for the four major beauty bands and rose power combinations that are also released for the first album, the former's "Nothing" and "No Place to Shame", now the popularity of piracy alone has made the vast majority of companies and singers understand the power of their new albums, and the latter, look at the two albums "Sister and Sister Stand Up" and "The Boy on the Other Side" created by Li Qian for Wuxingwusu, which has made the vast majority of singers and companies dare not covet it at all.

Therefore, although the market will never develop obediently according to your assumptions, there are still regular things after all. After carefully smacking and touching, many people will understand: In the four months of three, five, seven, and nine, people want to occupy it, and they can really occupy it! There is really no one who dares to fight with them!

In the five months since the Minghu Culture staking announced its occupation, there will only be about one November newcomer album, which will be relatively weak. But even so, as long as you think of so many newcomers who have become popular with Li Qian, to be honest, it is enough to make people big!

So much so that when this release plan was announced, many people suddenly came back to their senses: just over a year later, today's Li Qian and today's Minghu Culture Company are already in their fledglings!

When he stopped there, he was already a behemoth!

And the two record companies of Minghu Culture and Sony Records, after carving up the five elements, the confrontation vaguely revealed in the grand signing ceremony held by the front and back feet, as well as the action of Minghu Culture to directly unveil its own hole cards, to a certain extent, also seems to indicate that the confrontation in the music industry next year will become more and more intense.

Because today's Minghu culture has a strong capital that stands shoulder to shoulder with the top three in the industry!

…………

Three days later, on December 24, Sony Records officially announced that Zhou Yan's second album after her comeback has been confirmed to be released in May next year!

At the end of the month, if you don't vote for the monthly pass, it should expire!

Ladies and gentlemen, if you still have a monthly pass in your hand, you can enjoy a few!(To be continued.) )
