Approaching the end of July, Fang Xing's new album "Dissatisfied" is scheduled to be released on August 2.

This date is only 5 days away from the new album of Tan Zhiguan, the king of Merlin.

With the current mode of the album being released online, there is only 5 days left, which is equivalent to no difference.

Because the current first-line singers release new albums, they release one or two songs every week, which can make the album's release popularity last for a month or two.

Extending the release time has helped a lot in album sales.

Therefore, the release time is only 5 days away, which is actually a collision schedule.

Due to the collision of the schedules of the new albums, Ark Culture and Songshi Records instantly detonated Internet topics after announcing the release time of the new album "Dissatisfied".

In less than an hour, the topic of Fang Xing's new album rushed to the hot search on Weibo.

Tan Zhiguan's new album "The Return of the King" was on the hot search last week, and the hot search has fallen out of the top ten in the past few days.

But as Fang Xing's new album "Dissatisfied" rushed to the hot search, he immediately brought the hot search words of Tan Zhiguan's new album up.

The topic of the two singers' new albums released at the same time was swiped on major online platforms:

[I really bumped into it, two weeks ago, it was revealed that Fang Xing was going to release a new album, I thought I would have to wait at least three or five months, but this month didn't arrive, so I sent it directly, which caught people off guard. 】

[I'll go!] This won't be for Tan Zhiguan, right? I seem to smell gunpowder. 】

[The release time of Fang Xing's new album is a bit delicate, only 5 days later than Tan Zhiguan's. 】

[What does the title of the album "Disobedience" mean? Who is not convinced? Disobedient to whom? You don't mean it, do you? 】

[As an insider, I probably know what "Disobedience" means. Fang Xing has only debuted for two years, and it is not long to say that it is short, but it is not short. The company is also not large, but it has a lot of potential. There are too many capitals that want to eat the cake of Ark Culture, and it was investigated by a certain department not long ago, so it should have been suppressed. 】

[You don't have to think about it to know, the suppression is certain, how can the top ten record companies let a new singer step on them. Vicious competition is indispensable, and the title of this album is actually obvious. I want to challenge the capital with my strength, but I'm not very optimistic about the result, and I will either be taught a lesson or co-opted. 】

[This is interesting, as a melon-eating crowd, I want to watch the gods fight. 】

……

Fang Xing decided to release a new album on August 2, and it was not intentional.

In fact, when the album was almost finished, it was planned to be released in August.

Because, the Ark culture urgently needs to show its strength and show its muscles.

Even if there are more than 20 popular songs, plus "Wulin Gaiden" and "The Beginning".

The results of Ark Culture are so good, but in the eyes of capital companies such as Dingsheng Capital, it is only a company with a valuation of 250 million.

The valuation of 250 million is actually a very embarrassing number.

The valuation is not low, but it is far from the industry giants.

To put it more directly, a company with this kind of valuation is, in the eyes of capital, the fattest fat.

The scale is not enough to become an industry giant, and capital only needs to spend a little effort to eat it.

If you want to jump out of this embarrassing situation of being eaten by capital, there is indeed a way, but no matter what the method, there is a premise.

That is, the iron needs to win itself, and it must show its strength.

Only if you are strong enough can you have the opportunity to wrestle with capital, otherwise you will be eaten to the point that there are no bones left.

There is still time for the Ark culture, but not too much.

If it drags on for another year or two, if you can't jump out of the stage of being devoured by capital, it will be even more difficult later.

Therefore, when Fang Xing first made the album, he thought about releasing a new album in the middle of the year.

Therefore, the release time of the new album is basically determined to be August.

It depends on whether it is the beginning of August or the end of August.

If you choose to release it at the end of August, you can indeed avoid the competition of Tan Zhiguan's new album.

The number of songs on Tan Zhiguan's new album has been announced, with a total of 10 songs, and the release period lasts for more than a month.

If Fang Xing chooses to release a new album at the end of August, there will be little competition with Tan Zhiguan.

If it was last year, Fang Xing might have chosen to avoid it.

But since the Dachuan audio incident, Fang Xing's attitude has begun to change.

In addition, this time Dingsheng Capital wants to eat the Ark culture, Fang Xing has already understood that it is useless to avoid it, it will only make the opponent kick his nose in the face.

This contest is no longer just a contest of albums, there are more undercurrents behind it.

The capital behind Merlin Records is Pengcheng Capital and Dingsheng Capital.

Before, Pengcheng Capital has always taken the initiative to find trouble.

This time, Fang Xing chose August 2nd, which is to announce to the capital behind Merlin Records that the counterattack has begun!

That's right, this new album is a signal to fight back.

In the past, Pengcheng Capital took the initiative to challenge, starting from this album, Fang Xing will no longer avoid, Pengcheng Capital wants to send a new album to Tan Zhiguan to make money, then it will be tough and fight for the sales war of this new album.

……

When Ark Culture announced the release date of the new album, Merlin Records was also shocked.

Xu Shangyan thought at first that Fang Xing only broke the news two weeks ago that he was going to release a new album, and the speed should not be so fast, so it would have to be delayed for two or three months before it came out.

As a result, less than a month after the news came out, the new album came out.

Moreover, the release date of Fang Xing's new album directly hit Tan Zhiguan's new album schedule.

When two tigers fight, one will be injured.

Xu Shangyan and Tan Zhiguan suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

As soon as he learned the release date of Fang Xing's new album, Xu Shangyan called Chen Lipeng and asked for more publicity funds.

King Merlin released a new album, and the publicity funds must be sufficient.

Other singers in the industry dare to release albums at the same time, which is self-defeating.

Only Fang Xingxing's new album made Xu Shangyan feel a hint of threat.

Moreover, it is clear that Merlin Records first announced the release date of Tan Zhiguan's new album.

It stands to reason that the release date of Fang Xing's new album will be announced later, and the time can be adjusted.

However, Fang Xing still chose to hit the schedule directly.

This move made Xu Shangyan feel even more bad.

Normally, in the domestic music scene, who dares to collide with King Merlin?

Not a single one.

Even the kings and queens of the same coffee position will not hit Tan Zhiguan's new album release schedule.

Because this kind of competition will only hurt both sides.

Therefore, in Xu Shangyan's original plan, as long as the release date of Tan Zhiguan's new album is announced, the next month will belong to Merlin Records, and no one dares to release any songs during this time period.

However, Fang Xing dared.

Fang Xing chose to go head-to-head.

What does this mean?

It's hard to say who will win or lose, but at least one thing is certain, and the date of August 2 reveals a great deal of confidence.

If you don't have self-confidence, who would dare to choose this date?

Xu Shangyan felt a great sense of oppression rushing towards him through the poster.

Therefore, he immediately called Chen Lipeng and asked for additional publicity funds.

This battle, Merlin Records can't lose, so no matter how much money is added, this battle must be won.

……

It's not just Xu Shangyan who feels threatened.

Tan Zhiguan's feelings are clearer, because he has already felt it once on "Sing Loudly".

Before "Sing Out Loud", Tan Zhiguan had never been on this kind of variety show.

Because with his strength and status in the music world, he doesn't need to make money on variety shows.

Every concert tour he conducts every year is packed.

His strength and fame have always been at their peak, and he doesn't need variety shows to become popular.

That time on "Sing Loudly", it was the operation of Pengcheng Capital.

And Xu Shangyan, as his producer, has already agreed, and he can't refuse.

In "Sing Loudly", Tan Zhiguan heard Fang Xing sing on the spot, and he knew too well about that kind of strong hard power.

Listening to the video live and editing it out are two different things entirely.

The video edited by the producer will be more or less revised.

However, Tan Zhiguan listened to Fang Xing's singing on the spot, the kind of singing skills that are as stable as Mount Tai, there is no need to repair the sound at all, and even the sound repair is a destruction of the singing.

Therefore, no one knew Fang Xing's strength better than him.

On the cover poster of the "Dissatisfied" album, the back with his back to him reveals a strong self-confidence.

In another head-to-head confrontation, Tan Zhiguan felt great pressure.

That night, he took the initiative to call Xu Shangyan and asked to rerecord the last two songs.

The last two songs of his new album "The Return of the King" are songs by a Xiangjiang 18th line band.

The song itself is not bad, but the music level of this band is relatively average, and the arrangement is not satisfactory.

So after Merlin Records bought these two songs, after Xu Shangyan's modification and arrangement, and reproduction, the quality of the songs improved a lot.

However, due to the recent release of the new album, there is still post-production to be made.

Therefore, when Tan Zhiguan was recording, he didn't pursue the ultimate so much, and he just sang to a similar level.

After all, these two songs were originally just a number.

Now it's different, now a terrible opponent has appeared, and the pressure is coming, so he decided to rerecord the last two songs.

Xu Shangyan did not refuse, because he also felt that the last two songs were not recorded to the best extent.

As for time, it's not a problem.

Because the release time of the new album will last for a month, as long as the last two songs are put on sale at the end, there will be more than a month to make the post-production, and the time is enough.

……

Meanwhile.

Ark Culture Office Building.

The whole company is busy with the release of the boss's new album.

Everyone is so busy that their feet don't touch the ground, some people are contacting promotion channels, and some are contacting program promotion.

At ten o'clock in the morning of this day, a person came to the Ark Cultural Hall.

The front desk was on the phone, and when I saw someone coming in, I listened to the phone and wrote down the phone number, and asked the person who came in, "Hello sir, who are you looking for?" Do you have an appointment? ”

This person came to the front desk, looked at the "Dissatisfied" poster placed on the front desk, and replied: "I'm looking for Fang Xing...... Your boss. ”

"Do you have an appointment?" The front desk asked again.

"Yes...... I guess there is. He told me to come to him. "This man is a bit of a slurrel.

Because of the busyness of Ark Culture and the popularity of the new album before its release, he felt a great sense of distance.

"What time is it? I'll take a look at it. The front desk said, moving the mouse to find the entry for the appointment.

"I didn't ...... I haven't made an appointment yet. The man felt more and more cramped.

The front desk did not find the appointment of the boss in the computer.

Still, she looked up and smiled and asked, "What's your name?" I'll give you a call and ask. ”

"My name is Wang Huajun, I used to ......" Wang Huajun gestured with his fingers, but swallowed back when the words came to his mouth.

The front desk felt that this person was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it all of a sudden, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, Mr. Wang, wait a minute, I'll call to help you ask." ”

After she finished speaking, she picked up the phone and called the assistant to the president to explain the situation.

The front desk put down the phone, smiled brighter, and said, "Hello Mr. Wang, I'm sorry I didn't recognize you." An assistant will come out to pick you up later, so please wait. ”

When Wang Huajun heard this answer, he finally exhaled.

Two years have passed since "Rising Star", and his limited group contract has ended.

In the past two years, the jobs he has been able to receive are basically activities such as comic exhibitions and opening ceremonies, and no one knows them.

Therefore, he was embarrassed to say that he used to be Fang Xing's teammate.

The front desk didn't recognize him before, and he felt a little uncomfortable, but after two years of suffering, he has seen too many snobbish people, like the front desk of Ark Culture, who has always kept smiling, and he has a good attitude.

……

Didn't wait long.

An assistant walked out quickly, and after seeing Wang Huajun, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically: "Hello Mr. Wang, I am Fang Xing's assistant, the boss is not in the company now, and I am on the set to shoot the MV of the new album."

"Do you want to go to the set to meet the boss, or wait in the company?"

Wang Huajun was also unsure, and asked, "When will he come back?" ”

The assistant shook his head and replied: "It's hard to say, the release date of the boss's new album has been set, so the MV shooting is a bit rushed, and sometimes it has to be filmed until midnight." ”

Wang Huajun heard the news that Fang Xing was going to release a new album a few days ago, and knew that coming over at this time was indeed not very appropriate.

He thought about it for a moment and replied, "Then I'll go to the set, can I just go to the class?" ”

"Of course, then I'll arrange a car for you." The assistant called for a taxi as he spoke.

"Then I'll go buy some fruit or something." Wang Huajun thinks it's better to go to the class and buy some fruit.

"I'll just ask the driver to buy it, and if you think you have to pick it yourself, you can ask the driver to stop at the fruit shop on the road, which the driver often does." The assistant said.

"It's fine." Wang Huajun felt that the assistant arranged things very properly and felt very comfortable.

After getting in the car, he was still a little apprehensive.

Three months ago.

When he was performing classical dance at a comic convention, he met Fang Xing and Lu Xiang'er.

At that time, the two looked for a place to chat.

However, at that time, his limited group contract with Chaoyin Culture had not yet ended.

So even if Fang Xing wanted to help him, he couldn't help him.

At that time, Fang Xing left him a sentence: "When the contract is over, come to me." ”

Now, his limited group contract has ended, and he has taken a week off before he musters up the courage to come over.
