Chapter 110: We don't know how to love, hate, and hatred
At 09:08 a.m. on June 6, 2001, the imperial capital, the scene of the press conference of Zhou Yixin's album "Jiangnan".
There was still an hour before the official start of the press conference, but the media reporters with long guns and short guns were already in place, and the identification plates issued to them by Warner in advance were hung around their necks, indicating their companies and units.
During the conversation, the topic could not be bypassed the man who had set off a nationwide trend of "rule of law" in the past week - Zhou Yi.
It has not been a year since his debut, but he has done what countless artists in the entertainment industry have wanted to do in the past two or three decades but have never done it.
Zhou Yi's operation, regardless of whether Warner is for hype, at least this courage is really worthy of the surprise and admiration of all insiders.
Of course, more of them are not optimistic.
A nineteen-year-old and a half-year-old child, whether he is young and impulsive, or whether he is impulsive, can be understood by the public for his age.
In the words of Yang Shoucheng, the boss of the Emperor on the other side of Xiangjiang, in an interview before, I want to be nineteen years old, and with Zhou Yi's achievement, I can be mader than him.
"Just like what Zhou Yi himself said, young people are not vigorous, so are they still called young people?
"Whether it is our Ting Feng or Zhou Yi, they dare to say no to the paparazzi and rumors, which is precisely where the spirit of young people in the new century lies......"
Although I also don't understand what kind of crazy Warner is willing to accompany Zhou Yi to be so tough and tough, this does not prevent Yang Shoucheng from blowing it.
After all, Xie Tingfeng is also an unruly master in front of the media, especially when facing the paparazzi.
It's just that under the suppression of the emperor, Xie Tingfeng, who wanted to break out several times, was forced to endure the pressure.
In Yang Shoucheng's view, his set is the royal way to deal with the paparazzi, after all, this thing is a psoriasis, which belongs to the appendage of the entertainment industry, and it must be tasted.
Warner is still too fond of Zhou Yi.
With so many lawsuits at one time, Warner's big business doesn't care, but any medium-sized company that changes to a smaller one can't hold on.
And in order to build momentum for Zhou Yi's new album launch today, Warner also invited a lot of foreign media-
Japanese, Korean, and even American.
A few Caucasians with Time magazine on their chests are somewhat conspicuous among the yellow Asians.
It is no wonder that many people are now ridiculing Zhou Yi's treatment, which is obviously not explained by "Warner's own son", and it is at the level of "Warner's father".
Once the water is turned over, it is not only Zhou Yi who makes weight, but also Warner itself.
To be honest, when I saw these people, some media who were not very clear about Zhou Yi's achievements outside were a little surprised-
Although they are all owned by Warner Headquarters, is it a bit outrageous that you Zhou Jianhui directly pulled people from Time Magazine over to Zhou Yi to stand on the platform?
Zhou Yizhen is your father?
An hour later, at 10:08 a.m.
Zhou Yi, who was in a suit and leather shoes, walked to the stage with Zhou Jianhui, general manager of Warner, and Song Ke, music director of Warner Wheat Field, under the guidance of the staff.
Offstage, the eager media pressed the shutter one after another-
At the same time, dozens of media reporters at the scene received a welcome gift from Warner's on-site staff: the hardcover CD of Zhou Yixin's "Jiangnan".
It is also in line with the theme of today's new special conference.
On the album cover, Zhou Yifeng, who stands proudly under the Lushan Waterfall, is handsome, and just standing there makes people feel like they have seen a young man.
Whether it is the composition, light and shadow, and lines, they are all extremely perfect.
Damn it!
This face is so fucking handsome!
Warner obviously knows how to sell albums, and on the poster that comes with the hardcover CD, Zhou Yina is called a beautiful boy.
If this is seen by the rich grandmothers in Xiangjiang, Gao Neng will be able to buy the first wave of albums and sell them out.
Many reporters from Xiangjiang could already predict how much this album would set off a wave in Xiangjiang when they saw this poster.
Tall and big, not hunched over, good temperament and handsome, a proper grandmother killer.
The audience of next week's easy album is likely to be more than just young people.
"Although I think that this kind of thing of sending you albums has a kind of Wang Po selling melons and boasting in it, I am a little embarrassed, after all, I am thin-skinned."
On the stage, Zhou Yi, who adjusted the position of the microphone, looked at the press officer and gestured to him, then smiled and teased: "But there is no way, Mr. Zhou and Director Song both said that this is the rule, I can only follow it, and please don't dislike it."
"Of course, if you have any dissatisfaction, welcome to talk to Mr. Zhou and Director Song, I am just an innocent singer."
After the unique opening remarks, Zhou Yi, who was relaxed and relaxed, ordered several reporters who took red envelopes in order to start a friendly Q&A-
"What do I expect from this album? I guess at least it can't be worse than my first album. If I could, I'd like to see the second album sell a little bit more than the first album, which would be an improvement. ”
"2 million sales? No, no, no, I didn't say it, that's what you said. ”
"Has the lawsuit affected me? To be honest, there is, but I don't have any other merits as a person, just stubbornness. I will never accept reconciliation with these media who are good at malicious rumor-mongering. ”
"Why did you name the album "Gangnam"? Because of the main concept of this album, I won't spoil it if there are too many, I can only say that this album is a new attempt for me. ”
“……”
Zhou Yi, who answered questions from the domestic media again and again, finally pointed to those foreigners.
Foreign friends are also very polite, especially the Korean reporter who knew that Zhou Yi became popular in South Korea after several songs sold covers last year: "May I ask Mr. Zhou Yi, considering that the dance music of Ling Yizhuan has gained a large number of fans in South Korea, do you have any ideas for Korean songs?" ”
"Not yet, because I don't know much about Korean personally. If you want to write songs, I think you have to learn Korean at the very least.
"I am very grateful for the love of Korean fans, and I will try my best to learn."
Zhou Yi, who communicates with reporters in fluent English, smiled and drew a big pie casually.
When it was the turn of the Japanese reporter to ask a question, the question he asked surprised Zhou Yi a little: "May I ask Mr. Zhou Yi, what do you think about the fact that you defeated Hikaru Utada to win the soundtrack position of Jackie Chan's "Rush Hour 2" movie?" ”
"I don't know, maybe you should ask the makers of this movie? Could it be that the song I wrote is more suitable? ”
"You are known by many fans in Japan as the successor of the king of dance, do you feel about this title?"
"Thank you fans for their love, I will continue to work hard."
“……”
With the singing and harmony of several Japanese and Korean reporters, Zhou Yina's deeds of being bought by Japanese and Korean singers to cover the song immediately clearly flowed into the hearts of some well-informed mainland reporters present, which really opened their eyes.
While other mainland singers are still earning RMB, Zhou Yi has already started to earn US dollars?
In the current era, relying on this achievement alone, Zhou Yi can be called far ahead. For such a big thing, why hasn't Warner been hyped up before???
After the press conference of the new album, as Zhou Yi thought, a large number of influential media in the mainland reported the story of "sitting at home and lying down to earn dollars" for the first time.
"The Light of the Chinese Music World! The first person to counterattack the Japanese and Korean music scene! 》
"The first person in the mainland! Japanese and Korean fans are eager to meet Zhou Yi! 》
"Zhou Yixin's album released! A song sings all the Jiangnan tactful! 》
《……》
Compared with the mainland media, which only blows the virtue of blowing step by step, the Hong Kong media is much more open-
"Punch Dawn and Kick Aaron Kwok!" The little king Zhou Yi and Han are kings! 》
"Japan and South Korea Yang Wei, if he doesn't marry! The little king Zhou Yi won the hearts of Japanese and Korean women! 》
《……》
Yang Weike is okay.
Due to the breadth and profundity of Chinese characters, Zhou Yi was a little unsure of what this word meant for a while.
It's just that the audience in the mainland is very surprised, Zhou Yi is so good?
Can you go out and show off your might?
In 2001, an era in which self-confidence was urgently needed, Zhou Yi, as the only seedling who sold the copyright to the Japanese and Korean music scenes, immediately attracted the curiosity of many social backbones who were accustomed to buying newspapers and watching news every day.
At the same time, various video stores on the two sides of the strait and three places also put on a song almost at the same time, and the beautiful melody entered the hearts of everyone with the charm of Chinese culture-
"We who don't understand the torment of love and hatred all think that love is like the fickleness of the wind and clouds
"Believe in love for one day, for eternity
"Time froze in this moment~"
