Chapter 405 Even the young heartthrobs didn't dare to raise their voices in front of Chen Jinch
Chapter 405 Even the young heartthrobs didn't dare to raise their voices in front of Chen Jincheng!
The boss actually wrote more than twenty new songs without anyone noticing?
Wang Qiqi was completely shocked.
The key point is that he has never said that before.
Without uttering a sound.
He has written so many songs, if he just utters a word, she and Xiaowanzi promise to go to him every day to learn songs.
He doesn't like taking the No. 6 bus, so let him take it.
He can go whichever way he wants.
Then, with a look of anticipation, she said, "Boss, you've written so many new songs, which one are you planning to give me?"
"Here's a song for you, 'Peach Blossom Promise'." Chen Jincheng smiled, turned on the instrumental version of "Peach Blossom Promise," and also brought up the lyrics and music.
This song is also the most classic song in his late wife's memoir, and paired with Xiao 47's video, it's absolutely perfect.
In another world, Wang Qiqi covered this song and even bought the cover version copyright; her version is available on QQ Music.
Although she's not as good as the original singer, these songs don't exist in this world. She is the original singer, so even if she releases a version, there will be an "original singer" filter, making it passable.
最主要的，这歌以亡妻回忆录手法拍会有特殊的属性： 1、深情+100%。2、感染力+100%。3、路过的单身狗听了都得哭！
Adding a music video featuring his deceased wife's memoir would definitely make up for a lot.
"Try to familiarize yourself with the music by looking at the sheet music," Chen Jincheng instructed, and then let her familiarize herself with it.
When Wang Qiqi heard the background music for "Peach Blossom Promise," she knew the song had a great rhythm.
After listening to it once, she was certain that it was definitely a classic song.
I may not be good at writing songs, but I can still judge whether a song is good or bad.
The boss is amazing.
Chen Jincheng took out his phone to check the news online. The words "Phoenix Legend" and "top idol" had become trending topics on Douyin, and were also on the hot search list on Weibo and Tencent News.
This buzz has brought Phoenix Legend to everyone's attention. Coincidentally, Jiangsu TV's New Year's Eve Gala will be broadcast live, so we can advertise it there and announce Phoenix Legend's concert. That will be explosive news.
However, Chen Jincheng soon noticed some discordant comments about Phoenix Legend.
Do they even deserve to be called top celebrities?
Is there anyone who doesn't know what a top-tier celebrity is?
If just anyone could become a top influencer, wouldn't there be top influencers everywhere?
"..."
Although it didn't explicitly name Phoenix Legend, it was clearly a deliberate target. The key issue is that the people making a fuss are all young male celebrities, including Su Haoze, a top star, and it was this guy who started it.
Seriously, this guy is incredibly high-profile.
In another world, there really isn't any other young heartthrob as high-profile as him.
However, this is just as well. It will allow Phoenix Legend to give these young idols a good slap in the face, a bunch of clueless fools.
Especially Su Haoze, who just happened to be a stepping stone for Phoenix Legend.
As long as Phoenix Legend becomes as popular as the other world, they will definitely be able to beat the other in the music scene. All those top young idols are just made of paper.
In another world, after Phoenix Legend started their concert tour in 2024, they achieved the greatest success in terms of scale, number of shows, live atmosphere, full audience participation, and economic benefits.
To give another example, in 2024, another world-class superstar, Jay Chou, had 2034 million netizens who wanted to see his concert, the highest number across the entire internet, while Phoenix Legend had 1882 million.
Naturally, the reason why Jay Chou's reputation was not as good as Phoenix Legend's in 2024 is because he held fewer concerts and the overall atmosphere at the concerts was not as good as Phoenix Legend's.
If judged on a per-performance basis, when Jay Chou sang songs like "Seven Mile Fragrance," the atmosphere and sales performance were comparable to those of Phoenix Legend, making it difficult to determine a winner.
To give another example, a top celebrity's fans questioned Jay Chou's lack of popularity, noting that his topic ranked outside the top 100 on Weibo. Jay Chou's fans then stood up for themselves and quickly dethroned the top celebrity from first place, even surpassing him by over 40 million in topic views on Weibo, overwhelming the young idol by a significant margin.
Although the world no longer has Jay Chou, Phoenix Legend can still have the same effect in the music scene, and it's perfectly fine for them to put down the top young idols who rely on fan culture marketing.
At this time.
His phone rang; it was Sister Hong calling.
Upon answering the call, Hongjie's voice came through: "Boss, the Sujiang Olympic Sports Center has been rented. Old Chen has also booked plane tickets and brought the planning department over. After landing, he will work overnight to set up the site. However, the company has no experience in this area, so some things will need to be outsourced, which will increase additional costs."
Chen Jincheng immediately said, "This is a minor matter; the key is to make Phoenix Legend's first concert a success."
“I know,” Sister Hong replied, and continued, “By the way, there are a lot of comments from the younger generation targeting Phoenix Legend online. Also, there’s some very bad news: two other people are holding concerts soon, one is Fa Shi Yu, and the other is Su Haoze.”
“One of these two has a conflict with the boss, and Su Haoze started this attack on Phoenix Legend. I’m afraid they’ll target us as well.”
"Such a good thing?" Chen Jincheng said in surprise.
"Good news?" Sister Hong asked instinctively.
Although she believed that Phoenix Legend must have a lot of fans, she felt immense pressure facing a top influencer like Su Haoze.
“Sister Hong, it’s definitely a good thing, so don’t worry,” Chen Jincheng said with a smile.
Isn't this a perfect match between concerts?
Given this situation, many things become clear after the concert.
It can be said that Master Yu poses no threat.
It would be good to have Phoenix Legend and Su Haoze clash then.
Moreover, he wasn't worried about Su Haoze at all.
In another world, why was that top young idol so easily knocked off first place by Jay Chou and then crushed by a huge margin?
It's a very simple principle: those top young male celebrities are all products of fan culture marketing, and their fans are mainly young female students.
Let alone junior high or high school girls, even college girls have limited finances and simply can't afford to support them.
This can be seen in the series of TV dramas and movies starring young male idols that have flopped one after another. When it comes to truly needing the support of a large fan base, these young male idols simply don't have enough fans.
Jay Chou is different. His fans are mostly employed, over 30 years old, with a strong economic foundation, and their popularity is overwhelming.
In contrast, why did the popularity of those top young male celebrities from 18 years ago decline so drastically? Why are they now hesitant to hold a concert with over 5 attendees?
As for those with over 10 followers, not one of them dared to try. Was it because they didn't have the opportunity? Or because they didn't want to?
Of course not, it's simply that they wouldn't dare. Otherwise, who wouldn't want to achieve the honor of a concert with over 10 attendees?
The reason is simple: the female fans who adored them back then have grown up, started working, and gotten married. They can no longer blindly support them like they used to.
Some of them have jobs and know that making money is not easy. They barely have enough to rent a place and their salary is barely enough to make ends meet, so where would they find the money to support themselves?
Needless to say, those who are married, if they dare to say they'll support them or go to their concerts, they'll just have to wait and see if their husbands beat them up.
The same goes for Su Haoze now. The only ones who truly support him are his die-hard fans in the fandom. Most other fans don't have the financial means to support his concerts. They might be able to support one or two shows, but if it's a tour, they simply can't afford to continue.
But Phoenix Legend is different. Their fans are all economically independent individuals, numbering in countless cities, so there's no issue of running out of steam. The problem is that while the fans can keep going indefinitely, the two artists themselves have limited physical strength and energy, making it impossible for them to continue.
That will be the most obvious effect at that time.
Hongjie still trusted her boss, so she didn't say anything more and hung up the phone.
Chen Jincheng put down his phone and started listening to Wang Qiqi practice singing.
"An inch of soil, a year of trees, a flower, a tree, a greedy pursuit..."
"..."
"Human emotions are few and far between, hard to express; memories remain, scattered along the path of loving you!"
Wang Qiqi practiced very seriously. After several repetitions, she looked at Chen Jincheng beside her in a coquettish voice and asked, "Boss, what do you think of my singing?"
Chan Kam-ching did not comment on this, but said, "I think your voice is not deep enough. You need to clear your throat first."
"Okay, then boss, please help me clear my throat." Wang Qiqi said sweetly, and without any defense, she knelt down and crawled towards Chen Jincheng.
The boss is teaching her to sing. Since she's going to learn, she should definitely take the initiative and make the teaching process more enjoyable for the boss.
Seeing that she was self-aware, Chen Jincheng got straight to the point and helped her clear her throat. This girl had some singing skills, but she was still a bit behind the professionals and needed some proper instruction.
In addition, her voice is a bit hoarse, so we need to soothe her throat to make her voice softer.
The process of clearing the throat was quite slow; it took a long time for the lesson to end.
"Boss, what do you usually eat? How come you always have so much?" Wang Qiqi's beautiful eyes were still a little teary; she had obviously choked from eating too much. "Isn't this normal?" Chen Jincheng asked with a smile.
"What's normal about you? Only you are like this, okay?" Wang Qiqi snorted.
"You seem to know it very well, and you're quite experienced?" Chen Jincheng asked jokingly.
Wang Qiqi immediately bit Chen Jincheng: "Boss, I won't allow you to slander me. Those biology classes taught it, okay? There are so many videos online. Besides, now I won't let anyone touch me except you, boss."
Chen Jincheng smiled, picked up the girl, and walked towards the bathroom: "This singing course should be over now. This afternoon we need to go to the TV station to familiarize ourselves with the stage, and we need to rehearse tomorrow."
"Yes!" Wang Qiqi nodded.
A short while later, she left the boss's room and returned to her own room, where she saw Xiaowanzi and another pretty girl coming over. She knew that it was Xiaowanzi's older sister, Chu Xiaoqing (Chapter 209).
Seriously, this woman is much prettier and taller than Maruko. Apart from not being able to sing, she's much better looking than Maruko. She just has no interest in becoming an internet celebrity.
Otherwise, the boss would probably like this kind of food.
Wang Qiqi also greeted Xiaowanzi. They were the only two singers among the Cheng Girls. They sometimes stuck together, and they could tell that many of the Cheng Girls had formed groups.
Xiao Ju and Li Xiaoyan.
Zhang Tiaoai, Li Muchen, Lin Leqing.
Sophie and Sun Yizhu.
and many more.
"Little Maruko, there's something I feel I need to tell you," Wang Qiqi suddenly said.
"What?" Maruko asked.
"The boss has already written more than 20 original songs," Xiaowanzi said.
Maruko was taken aback when she heard the news and instinctively asked, "You got the song?"
"Yes." Wang Qiqi didn't hide anything.
"Thank you," Maruko said, then led her sister into the room. After closing the door, she said to her sister, "Sis, help me!"
"???" Chu Xiaoqing looked puzzled.
"Do you like your boss?" Maruko asked.
"???" Chu Xiaoqing was completely bewildered.
To put it bluntly: "Or, would you like to have the chance to win a 300 million yuan prize in the future?"
Chu Xiaoqing hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and asked, "How do you want me to help you?"
Maruko leaned right close to her ear and started talking.
Chu Xiaoqing exclaimed in shock, "Chu Xiaowan, are you even speaking human language? I'm only worth one song, right?"
“I’m worth one song, you’re worth one song, so I can have two songs,” Maruko said very seriously.
"..." Chu Xiaoqing.
……
The TV station has booked the entire hotel for the past two days and arranged three meals a day for the invited guests. So, at noon, the invited guests will have lunch at the hotel restaurant.
Naturally, some people will choose to eat out.
However, most people choose to meet at hotels, which is also a rare opportunity to network and meet people in the same industry.
When Linghua and Zeng Yi came in, they noticed that many people were looking at them, and many of them even had amusement in their eyes.
The two of them naturally knew what was going on. It was that video posted by the new boss that put them on the hot seat. They could even see that many of the celebrities and singers around them were disdainful.
This made the two of them sigh silently.
That's a bit too much.
Honestly, they didn't have much contact with people in the industry, but they weren't exactly unpopular.
The new boss's actions were clearly seen as overestimating his abilities, and even strangers didn't have much goodwill towards him.
The two of them simply stopped thinking about it, looked around, and saw the table where Sister Hong was. They went over and sat down, then picked up the TV station's special menu and started looking at it.
Before the two even ordered, a teasing voice rang out: "Wow, a top celebrity is hanging out with a bunch of internet celebrities. That's so high-profile."
Along with this sound, several mocking laughs also rang out from all around.
Linghua and Zeng Yi looked over instinctively and saw that it was Su Haoze. Their brows immediately furrowed.
The other party was clearly targeting them intentionally.
"There's nothing wrong with hanging out with internet celebrities. There's still a lot we can learn from them. If we keep sticking to our old ways, we might be eliminated one day." Xue Qian's voice rang out as he walked in and sat down next to the two members of Phoenix Legend.
Su Haoze frowned immediately when he saw Xue Qian.
Everyone knew he was going to embarrass the two members of Phoenix Legend. Xue Qian's sudden entrance was clearly an attempt to oppose him and showed him no respect whatsoever.
Unfortunately, he is a top-tier celebrity, yet he has no way to deal with Xue Qian. Xue Qian is a unique figure in the entertainment industry; although he is not a top-tier celebrity, his fans are extremely loyal.
Moreover, although none of his songs have won major awards, he has many hit songs and wins numerous smaller awards. Some singers win awards for one hit song but not for the others, but he consistently delivers high-quality performances. There is no singer who can definitively surpass him.
The other party's TV programs and columns have never produced any super popular shows, but they have a lot of variety shows, and they are all popular and are one of the pillars of the industry, with Jiangsu TV supporting them.
On social media, the other party's number of followers isn't top-tier, but it's still quite large.
Aside from acting, he's not top-notch at anything, yet he excels at everything—a typical all-rounder in the entertainment industry.
If it really comes down to it, he can take on anyone, and even if he can't win, he won't lose too badly.
Nobody wants to deal with this weirdo; it's just trouble and a real nuisance.
Just as Su Haoze was speechless, another voice rang out: "In this day and age, there are still people who look down on internet celebrities. Maybe some top celebrities are nothing in the eyes of an internet celebrity like me."
These words were directly directed at Su Haoze, a top celebrity.
Su Haoze couldn't stand it any longer and instinctively turned his head.
Before he could finish speaking, he saw that it was Chen Jincheng, and his words caught in his throat, his face turning somewhat pale.
If Chen Jincheng were just an internet celebrity, he would have sprayed the other party with a mouthful of salt soda. The key is that the other party's MCN is now worth 500 billion yuan in funding.
The other party also owns a liquor company and has a very good relationship with that tycoon Lei.
Simply put, even the most popular young male celebrities can't afford to offend the other party, at least not openly.
Therefore, even though he dared to challenge Phoenix Legend, when Chen Jincheng appeared, he could only smile awkwardly, then get up and leave, losing his appetite completely.
However, once he left the restaurant, his expression darkened.
I got slapped twice in a row, it's really annoying.
He also made a phone call and instructed his team: "Find me some online trolls to hype up the fact that Chen Jincheng and I are the closing act at the New Year's Eve gala. If Chen Jincheng's ratings are lower than mine, it will be embarrassing."
They dared not openly offend Chen Jincheng, so they could only annoy him in secret.
He's known for his disgusting methods.
In the restaurant.
Chen Jincheng had already found a table to sit at nearby, as Sister Hong's table was already full.
He had barely sat down when he saw Xiaowanzi sit down opposite him, pulling her older sister Chu Xiaoqing along with her.
He glanced at Chu Xiaoqing subconsciously. He had met her many times before, as Xiaowanzi's assistant, but she was clearly different today. She was dressed more intellectually than usual and seemed to have put on very exquisite makeup.
In conclusion, this sophisticated and refined makeup look is also very beautiful.
"Boss, I want to learn a song from you tonight too." After sitting down, Xiaowanzi said to him, "You've been teaching Wang Qiqi for half a day already."
Chen Jincheng glanced at Xiaowanzi, scanning her up and down, and said meaningfully, "My teaching method can be approached from different angles. If you want to learn, you have to study each angle carefully."
"Boss, you can teach me however you want." Little Maruko knew perfectly well what her boss's wicked intentions were.
But while she readily agreed, it was her older sister, Chu Xiaoqing, who was standing beside her, who was nervous.
