"In addition, I will also launch a public opinion offensive!" Wu Ming raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.

"Public opinion offensive?" Huang Zhan and the four looked at Wu Ming suspiciously.

Wu Ming hooked the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Don't forget, I have now taken the "South China Morning Post", "Cheng Pao", "Xin Pao" and "Hong Kong Economic Daily" under my command, and established Xinghuo Newspaper Company, and Xinghuo Group also has several magazines of "Entertainment World" and "Fashion Life".

As long as I ask them to publish some articles that promote original songs and belittle cover songs, after a period of time, the people of Hong Kong will still find cover songs good. But in their hearts, cover songs will definitely be inferior to original songs. ”

Wu Ming's eyes closed slightly, squinted and smiled: "Then every once in a while, we publish cover songs on the market in newspapers and magazines. Before, listeners didn't know about the cover songs they listened to, so they didn't feel anything.

But when they know which albums have cover songs in them, they will definitely give preference to those that don't have cover songs or have few cover songs. ”

Wu Ming wants to do his best to discredit cover songs, and he believes that under the uninterrupted bombardment of his major media, the original songs will be far more powerful than cover songs.

And as long as it is a human being, there is a psychology of pretending. When the time comes, the person who listens to the cover song will be a head short in front of the person who listens to the original song. Those who listen to the original song can beep as much as they want in front of the person who listens to the cover song. When the time comes, people who can't stand the eyes of others will naturally give up buying records of cover songs.

After understanding Wu Ming's thoughts, Huang Zhan shook his head and sighed: "Amazing, really powerful, I didn't expect it to be able to operate like this." ”

If Huang Zhan goes through the baptism of the Internet in later generations, it is estimated that he will sigh "This wave of operations is really sassy!"

Lu Guozhan, Li Xiaotian, and Gu Jiahui also looked at Wu Ming with the eyes of a monster. They never came, and they didn't expect the media to use it like this.

"I still have a third axe!" Wu Ming smiled and said, "I also want to set up a music chart for our Xiangjiang based on the Billboard Charts in the United States, that is, the 'Xiangjiang Pop Music Chart', to list the top 50 pop singles every week." Of course, these songs must also be original music.

At the same time, modeled after the Grammy Awards in the United States, the Xiangjiang Music Award was established. If you want to win an award, it must also be original music. I don't believe that with so much help, Chinese original music can't be developed. ”

"That's right," Lu Guozhan said with a confident smile on his face, "With so many favorable conditions, we will definitely be able to develop original Chinese music." ”

"It's great that original Chinese music can have the full support of a wealthy man, Ah Ming!" Gu Jiahui sighed.

Promoting original Chinese music seemed to Huang Zhan and others to be very difficult, but Wu Ming immediately solved many problems as soon as he made a move. In the final analysis, it is not Huang Zhan and others who are incompetent. It's that Wu Ming has money and a lot of resources in his hands, such as Star TV and newspapers and magazines under Xinghuo Group, which can easily do things they can't do.

……

The top three players and some potential players will all receive premium contracts from Starlight Records. If you want to become a singer, come and participate in the competition!"

Such a generous reward!Dear!What are you waiting for!Hurry up!Registration telephone: 900-60-80-7777, address: broadcast channel XXXXXXXX. ”

In the next week, the audience of Star TV had just experienced the advertising bombardment of "Millionaire", and they were bombarded by the new advertisements of the "Global Chinese Rookie Singing Contest" again.

The major newspapers and magazines under the Xinghuo Group, under the orders of the boss, also published advertisements for the "Global Chinese Rookie Singing Contest".

It didn't take long for the entire Xiangjiang to know about this singing contest. As long as you have a little confidence in your singing voice, you have signed up for the competition.

Some people with high self-confidence even shouted directly: "Star TV, the fortune boy, has started to give money again, and I will definitely pocket the 500,000 bonus." ”

On the second day, there was a long queue at the registration points in the eight divisions.

By the time the registration deadline came, although it was not as good as "Millionaire", there were more than 500,000 applicants, but more than 100,000 people had signed up for the competition.

At the same time, Wanwan also has overseas regions such as the United States, Canada, and Singapore, and Wu Ming also spent a sum of money to advertise in local media.

However, because this singing contest was held in a hurry, there was no selection competition in overseas areas, and Chinese in overseas areas who wanted to participate in the competition could only come to Xiangjiang.

Naturally, there are very few Chinese in overseas areas who are willing to come all the way to Xiangjiang to participate in the singing contest, and until the competition begins, the number of applicants is only about 100.

However, because of the relative proximity, Wanwan has set up a competition area.

Although Wanwan was initially hostile to Wu Ming, a wealthy man who came out of the mainland and leaned towards the mainland, and also invested in factories in the mainland, the business of the Order of the Phoenix could not enter Wanwan.

However, after Aihua Electronics invested in the establishment of a 4-inch wafer factory in Wanwan a while ago, Wanwan's attitude towards Wu Ming's family suddenly took a 180-degree turn.

Although it has not become very friendly, as long as Wu Ming's family does not publicly express their opposition to Wanwan, the Wanwan government will turn a blind eye to Wu Ming's family's behavior in leaning towards the mainland.

Wanwan's standard of living at this time was much worse than that of Xiangjiang, and when he saw so many bonuses, he was eager to try. If it weren't for the fact that the publicity was not as good as that of Hong Kong, the number of people who signed up for the competition might have exceeded that of Hong Kong. Even so, the number of people who signed up for the competition reached a high figure of 200,000.
