Chapter 282: Sensational Report
A reporter from Nandu Weekly asked: "Zheng Xiao, may I ask, when will your English album be released?" There is a saying: strike while the iron is hot! You're very popular in the U.S. right now, and if you can take advantage of this popularity to launch a new album, I believe the chances of success will be greater.

Zheng Xiao smiled: "There is a saying: If you want to hurry, you can't reach it!" Since this is the first time to release an English record for European and American countries, I think quality is the most important thing, not to catch up with the heat! Even if a low-quality record can be sold a few more copies while it is booming now, I think it will not be worth the loss for future development! So, I'm not going to rush to release my first album, I'm going to try my best to prepare and try to be the best and bring out the best work, that's the priority! ”
The reporters nodded frequently.
That's what the old man thinks!
Another reporter asked: "Zheng Xiao, have you ever thought about how many copies of your first album can sell in Europe and the United States?" ”
"It's not something I'm thinking about right now, and I don't think about it, and a lot of times, it's not going to be useful at all." Zheng Xiao said.
The press conference is over.
That night, CCTV 3 Entertainment News broadcast a report on Zheng Xiao's cooperation with Sony on overseas records.
The title of this report is: $5 million signing fee, Zheng Xiao signed the overseas copyright of the record to Sony!
The news covered the signing press conference throughout the process.
The news said that just signing the overseas agency copyright of the record can get a huge signing fee of 5 million US dollars, which no Chinese singer has done before.
And Zheng Xiao, just a student who has just graduated from college, is only 23 years old, and has become a superstar loved by hundreds of millions of fans in just a few months.
It's really an incredible thing.
The news highlighted that Zheng Xiao is a contestant in this year's CCTV Avenue of Stars program, and has been confirmed to enter the annual finals, and is the most popular candidate for the championship of the people's talent show.
Finally, the news also summarized the significance of Zheng Xiao's rise, believing that as long as there is a dream, as long as you are willing to work hard, the grassroots can also usher in a brilliant and successful tomorrow!
It's kind of a chicken soup tail.
The next day, many influential domestic newspapers reported the news of Zheng Xiao's signing with Sony.
China Youth Daily: "China's young singer Zheng Xiao signed a $5 million signing fee to Sony to enter the global music scene!" ”
China Daily: "With $5 million to cooperate with Sony to develop overseas rights to records, will Zheng Xiao become the next world pop king?" ”
Beijing Evening News: "5 million US dollars is just a signing fee for overseas copyright cooperation!" No star in China has ever received such treatment! ”
Xinmin Evening News: "The signing fee is as high as 5 million US dollars, why is Sony willing to spend so much money to cooperate with Zheng Xiao on the overseas copyright of its record?" ”
Nandu Weekly: "Sony's 5 million US dollar signing fee plus preferential treatment to sign Zheng Xiao, is it a failure or a wonderful move?" ”
In short, these newspapers reported on the signing from different angles.
And these news have also caused a huge sensation in China.
Many people were shocked when they saw the news.
"Oh my God! 5 million dollars, more than 40 million yuan, there is such a sum of money that can sit and eat for the rest of your life and wait for death. ”
"Isn't it a bit silly for Sony to do this? 5 million dollars signed with Zheng Xiao for five years of overseas record agency rights, and they rely on overseas release of Zheng Xiao's records every year, can they earn back the 5 million? How do you think about it, how do you feel a little suspenseful! ”
"This is treating Zheng Xiao as the second Michael Jackson, right?"
"The Japanese are known for their shrewdness, will they make a loss-making deal? If they dare to give Zheng Xiao a signing fee of 5 million dollars, they will definitely be able to earn at least ten times back! ”
"Zheng Xiao is mighty! I don't know how to express my mood at the moment, in short, it's just a sentence, I wish Zheng Xiao to open up overseas markets and win, beat Elvis Presley, and catch up with Jackson! ”
A neighborhood somewhere in the capital.
In a luxuriously furnished unit, Simbayeva was also reading today's newspaper.
She shook her head and sighed as she watched.
It's a lot of pressure!
As a girl who has been in the music industry for several years, she is deeply aware of the fierce competition in this industry!
There are too many powerful singers.
There are too many people who want to get into this industry.
If you are not the kind of top-notch artist, if your opportunities are not good enough, if you don't have the help of nobles, it is not easy to get ahead!
Like Simbayeva, she participated in two youth song competitions and achieved good results both times, but she is still not well-known in China, and the star road is also dark.
This time, the reason why she wanted to participate in the Avenue of Stars and wanted to hit the overall champion of this talent show was also because of the huge influence of this show.
The champions and runners-up of the first Avenue of Stars, whether it is Po or Phoenix Legend, are now popular all over the country!
Just thinking about it, Simbayeva's eyes are warm and her heart is beating.
She wanted to fire so much.
She was originally determined to win this championship!
Because she met a nobleman, this nobleman has an irreversible relationship with the deputy director of CCTV who happens to be in charge of entertainment, it is said that this person has a great favor equivalent to reinvention to the deputy director!
The noble man greeted the deputy director.
The deputy director also promised that he would give Simbayeva a chance to go directly to the finals.
Sinbayeva was overjoyed when she got the news.
She thought that as long as she could enter the finals, with her super professionalism, how could she win the championship, and at that time, she might be famous all over the country, right?
She also made the same mistake as other professional singers: she thought that most of the contestants in a talent show like the Avenue of Stars were amateurs who had not undergone professional training, and many of them were still out of tune and couldn't sing accurately, so they came to participate in the show and performed on stage!
If you can't win the championship against these people, it is simply unforgivable.
Therefore, Simbayeva participated in the competition with the psychology of picking up leaks.
However, her excitement did not last long.
As she learned more about this year's Avenue of Fame, she suddenly found that it was not what she thought it was at all: the Avenue of Fame was all about amateur contestants who didn't know how to sing and were PK each other!
Those who become weekly champions and monthly champions are actually very powerful, and their singing is also quite professional musical talents!
Especially Zheng Xiao.
While participating in the Avenue of Stars, he has grown into a superstar in China.
His performance on "Superstar Face" has amassed a huge number of die-hard fans, and he has even been called a "god-like imitator"!
His singing skills are very good, with a wide vocal range, high and low, the treble is comparable to Zhang Yusheng, and the lingering and sympathetic bass is also moving, free to retract and play, his diacritic, his vibrato, his falsetto......
