"What time does Zhou Yi arrive, Old Han?"

South Korea, in a private room of a Chinese restaurant.

Han Hong, who had gradually gained the grandeur of the eldest sister, returned to the box after finishing the order, and before she could close the door, a beautiful woman with long legs opened her mouth and said curiously: "Is there no time to come?" He seems to be busy. ”

"It's almost there, he said he was on his way."

Han Hong closed the door of the box with a smile, and as he spoke, he turned his gaze to Sun Nan, who was a little silent, and unconsciously raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder as he paced by: "He was dealing with the company's affairs just now, and you know, his song has exploded again in the United States." ”

"yes, it's a miracle."

Qu Ying's tone was clearly a little incredible.

As the only person in the audience who has experience in breaking into the United States, she is called China's first model by external reporters, and she knows very well how difficult it is for a Chinese to go out.

has been featured in big-name magazines, endorsed international brands such as Ericsson mobile phones and Longines watches, and even served as a judge in international model competitions.

Because of her age, she decided to retire bravely, so she returned to China, and began to look for opportunities for transformation while recuperating with her unbroken supermodel halo.

This year's Chinese and Korean Song Club has a name for her, and she is also rushing to transform and brush up her qualifications.

"Judging from the qualifications, the two of you should have a common language, after all, you have both made achievements outside, although she is in the modeling circle."

In front of the traffic light, Qian Jiang, who was driving as a driver himself, glanced at Zhou Yi, who was looking at the list information, and joked with a smile: "And Sun Nan is also here tonight, I guess I plan to soften with you personally." ”

As the former brother in the mainland, he was able to participate in the China-Korea Song Festival this time thanks to his outstanding performance in the China-Japan Song Meeting.

"Originally, he didn't really want to come, but it is estimated that he was shaken by the advice of the brokerage company behind him, after all, there is no shame in bowing your head now."

"Do I look like a cannibal? I don't have any old and dead holidays with him. ”

Zhou Yi glanced at Qian Jiang: "At the beginning, you grabbed the resources of "Young Bao Qingtian", not me, and I didn't take the initiative to ask for the first brother in the mainland. ”

“…… If I were Sun Nan, I would kick the gas pedal to the end now and take you to the end with me. ”

When the car started again, accompanied by Qian Jiang's cruel words that there was no threat, the black Mercedes-Benz immediately sped through the brightly lit streets-

More than ten minutes later, according to the address given by Han Hong, Zhou Yi walked into the restaurant in the happy eyes of the proprietress of the Chinese restaurant.

Han Hong, Sun Nan, Qu Ying, Zhou Hui, Mo Wenwei and the Zero Point Band.

In addition to Jing Gangshan and Sun Yue, two pop singers with high early debuts, and Wu Bixia, a national team-level singer who is responsible for leading the team, all the other participants in this year's China-Korea Song Festival came.

"I'm sorry, the company's affairs have been delayed for a lot of time, and it's too late."

Zhou Yi, who came up to self-examine first, did not let the atmosphere in the box be embarrassed, and sighed helplessly: "Recently, I have been squeezed by the company, and I am about to use myself as a donkey." ”

"That's what I said, come to Zhou Yi, let me introduce you, this is Qu Ying, the first model in China."

Sun Yue was not there, and Han Hong, who had known Zhou Yi for a long time, acted as a middleman, and enthusiastically introduced the beauty with nine legs and legs to Zhou Yi, who also stretched out his hand to Zhou Yi at the right time: "I finally saw a real person, and the real person is more handsome than on the poster."

"In addition, don't believe what Lao Han said about the first model, it's just the media."

"Be humble, Sister Qu."

Zhou Yile shook hands with him: "I also took a magazine issue, and those models don't have your temperament." ”

"Harper's Bazaar, right, I have also bought those issues, and they are very stylish, and Hu Bin is ashamed of himself after reading it."

"I love to hear this, so say more."

Zhou Yi, who raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly, immediately turned his eyes to the other people in the audience - in addition to Sun Nan and the two old acquaintances of the Zero Point Band, the other two new faces were Zhou Hui, a female singer who represented Taiwan to participate in the China-Korea Song Concert, and Mo Wenwei, who represented Hong Kong to participate in the China-Korea Song Concert.

The former debuted in 1999, and in terms of qualifications, he is the same batch as Xiao Yaxuan, Cai Yilin, Liang Jingru, and Sun Yanzi. It's just that compared to these four, her famous song and the most well-known song so far is a cover of Wang Fei's "Promise".

Although Mo Wenwei has never seen it before, she used to be a top diva who fought with Zhou Yi on the rankings.

"I finally saw you, Ah Yi, you really don't give any face in Hong Kong." Mo Wenwei ridiculed the things Zhou Yi did in Hong Kong: "Moreover, you are still the first person who can win a Ferrari from Huang Zhan." ”

"It's over, Sister Mo."

Zhou Yi, who exchanged contact information, then turned to Zhou Hui, and after leaving contact information with her, his eyes turned to Sun Nan-

"Long time no see, Zhou Yi."

Unlike the others, Sun Nan came up and gave a friendly hug, and the smile on his face looked extremely sincere.

Several people with different thoughts on the scene quietly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts after seeing this scene.

"Long time no see."

Seeing that Sun Nan took the initiative to bow his head to himself, releasing the kindness of admitting defeat, the smile on the corner of Zhou Yi's mouth gradually became a little more real.

This man who still wants to regain the throne of the first brother with the new album "The Sky of Fate" still dies after all-Zhou Yi is too strong, and he can't see any hope of winning as a robber.

Seeing this, Han Hong immediately beckoned everyone to sit down, eating and chatting with the hors d'oeuvres sent by the store owner, and most of the chats were about the changes that have taken place in the domestic music scene in the recent period.

"Seriously, if I were a sea butterfly, I'd probably want to call the police."

Han Hong, who was chewing peanuts, was almost invisible when he talked about a big melee in the music world that broke out at the end of this year: "Adu, do you remember, Zhou Yi?" Haidie knew that you didn't have any plans to release an album at the end of the year, so she planned to build momentum for him again, but it turned out to be like you again, and the funds were wasted. ”

"Adu?"

Zhou Yi, who heard this name coldly, raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then, he figured out what the situation was from the gossip of these people-

The reason is that Haidie wants to build momentum for Adu and try to make efforts to help him win the first place in Baidu's annual singer search list.

Throughout 2002, there are only two who have really stood in the position of super-top male singers - one is Zhou Yi, and the other is Adu.

Although there is also a considerable gap between the two.

Therefore, at the moment when both the album collision and the song ranking were completely defeated, taking advantage of Zhou Yi's own efforts to go abroad, Haidie wanted to take the opportunity to catch up with Zhou Yi in terms of popularity and Internet search volume-

On November 29, Adu, a subsidiary of Sea Butterfly, officially released his second album "Stick to the End".

The title song "Stick to the End" began to pave the way when Zhou Yi had just left China under the marketing of Haidie, until last week, after Zhou Yi's popularity dropped a lot, Adu, who sang the whole country again with this song, seemed to be proving to the outside world that he was not a flash in the pan.

On December 18th, a singer named Xu Wei gradually got himself out of the haze of depression and released a new album "Time Walk", in which a song was born that can almost be said to have swept the mainland music charts in a short period of time - "Blue Lotus".

On December 20, Pan Weibo, a newcomer singer under Universal Music, officially debuted under the name of "Hip Hop Little Zhou Yi" and released his debut album "Gecko Walk". The title song of the same name on the album, "Gecko Walk", and the male and female duet song "Tell Me" were also fierce once released, and they became famous in Taiwan.

For a while, the music scene across the Taiwan Strait and three places seemed to have someone at the end of the year who could suppress Zhou Yi, who was in the end of the weak album sales on the charts.

Haidie was caught off guard and was forced to shift her focus to the road of confrontation with them, after all, Zhou Yi has not released an album this year, so there is no need to worry too much.

Then, they were all stupid.

Or rather, the executives of these companies are all stupid - when the news of "In the Name of the Father" began to be constantly reported in China, they were a little incomprehensible.

No, dude, this is about to do a real thing, why are you still playing with cannons?

Chinese songs into foreign markets?

Why don't you soar to 90,000 miles?

And it is precisely because of this sudden popularity that the three record companies of Haidie, Universal, and Busheng have prepared all the songs and publicity funds for their singers!

Warner, who is firmly seated in Diaoyutai, only needs to take advantage of this wave of popularity and a little marketing money to help Zhou Yi return to the top of the major charts - piggybacking and bringing back a number of songs to the top ten on the list again.

On the music list, "Fairy Tale", which has lost the championship, has slipped to the third place, but it has returned to the first place like a rocket under this wave of heat. What's even more surprising to the major record companies is that the song "In the Name of the Father" has also made a splash in China......

"Kuroko speaks!"

On the domestic Internet, because of "In the Name of the Father", which can be said to be an achievement that broke the language barrier of songs, some crystallized fans who were pressed by the marketing expenses of Universal, Haidie, and Busheng during this period of time have spoken, and even a few people have gone to major forums and chat rooms for cross-regional guidance -

Including but not limited to running to the fan support club of the corresponding singer to despise them and let them come out to see the emperor; popularize Zhou Yi's achievements to those people, absorb and transform those undetermined passers-by and so on.

It is precisely for this reason that Zhou Yi's upcoming Sino-Korean song meeting immediately ushered in more people's attention-

According to the online poll, on January 3 of the following year, the number of domestic viewers who want to watch the Chinese and Korean song meeting on time in front of the TV has increased by 325% compared with the previous Chinese and Korean song meeting!

And this, all because of Zhou Yi, rushed over to watch.

This directly caused great psychological pressure on the pop singers who participated in this song meeting.

After all, according to common sense, this kind of party is not the Spring Festival Gala, and the number of people who are really willing to stare at it is actually not too much, which can be seen from the last China-Korea Song Meeting.

And it is precisely because of this that on December 27, when the recording of the Sino-Korean Song Club officially began, except for Zhou Yi and the singer who pressed the formation, everyone else on the Chinese side looked serious.

Sun Nan and Han Hong's aura with a straight face looked quite scary, which made the Korean side confused.

Those who knew thought they were going to sing, and those who didn't know thought they were coming to Seoul to fight......
