China Entertainment 2000

In August 2001, Deng Chao, who was about to be a senior when school started, was somewhat anxious.

Although the first TV series he starred in last year, "The Fertile Soil Below the Yellow Sand," performed well, it has not been aired yet, and it has not brought much growth to his personal fame.

As a Chinese opera student, in the three consecutive classes of 1995, 1996, and 1997, there were many famous seniors. Deng Chao, who is about to enter his senior year, naturally has a longing in his heart. He longs to learn from his seniors. The sisters also soared into the sky.

For this reason, he diligently ended his summer vacation early and returned to the Imperial Capital to try his luck and see if he could join a few crews to try his luck.

Originally, his expectation was just to find a few roles with some drama to temper himself, but what he didn't expect was that on August 25, the teacher actually contacted him and said that there was someone who was going to play the male lead in the Zhouyi MV. opportunity and asked him if he wanted to go.

"Yes! I am willing, teacher, I am willing."

Deng Chao, who never expected that he would be attracted by Zhou Yi, a big star, was somewhat flattered.

As a Jiangxi native, how could he not know Zhouyi. At such a young age, he has become a business card in JX Province, and "Jiangnan", nicknamed the Jiangxi Scenery Promotional Film, has been recognized by the Tourism Bureau.

He'd have to have his brain kicked in the ass to turn down this opportunity.

But...how did Zhou Yi know him? Could it be that Deng Chao's acting skills are so famous that even the singer Zhou Yi has heard of it?

"You, remember to buy something when you find time to thank your senior sister Chen Hao. There is a shortage of people at Zhouyi's MV. She happened to go back to school yesterday, so I thought of you who is pretty good at school..."

The teacher on the phone explained the reason in detail, and the sensible Deng Chao went back to school without saying a word to find someone to get Chen Hao's number.

Huang Bo, who also received a call from Warner, had a look of disbelief on his face. His first reaction after being in the world for many years was that he had encountered a scammer who wanted to swindle money——

Until he came to Warner, met Zhou Yi, and signed his name on the contract.

"Thank you, thank you very much, Mr. Zhou."

Huang Bo never expected that Zhou Yi would still remember him and thank him repeatedly.

"You're welcome, I just happened to think of you, your performance in "Get in the Car, Let's Go" was very good."

Zhou Yi joked about his previous experience: "Little Zhou Yi, this title has impressed me deeply before."

When Huang Bo heard this title again, he was a little confused on his face.

In the past, it was just a meal in the bar street that needed such publicity, but now that he has quit his job as a resident singer to concentrate on taking the film school exam, this little Zhou Yi has become somewhat involved.

He is still very self-aware.

With his good looks, talking about the bankrupt version of Zhou Yi is just putting money on his face.

"This is the script for the "Goodbye" MV. You should familiarize yourself with it. Time is tight. Filming will start tomorrow."

"Okay, I won't let you down."

Even though he is much older than Zhou Yi, Huang Bo still insists on using the honorific title.

He has read the script of "Goodbye", and it is essentially a small theater story that is relatively resonant.

The young protagonist played by Deng Chao and the middle-aged protagonist played by him intersect in their trajectories. The former classmates separated and reunited, reunited and separated again.

The show didn't feel too difficult for him.

The most important thing is that he has a lot of roles.

"In this case, I'm afraid the release date of your graduation EP will have to be postponed to early September."

Qian Jiang planned the time according to the schedule and reminded: "Preparing goods also takes time. You wasted too much time on the crew of "Those Years"."

"You can't blame me, the company forced me to act." Feeling innocent, Zhou Yi activated the non-stick skill again and pushed the pot directly.

"..."

6.

Knowing that he was going to take the blame again, Qian Jiang shook his head, laughed and cursed, and said: "The "Super Interview" column has set the recording time for your special episode, September 7th, and the broadcast time is September 13th.

"Also, you have to start preparing in advance for the China-Korean Song Contest in November. In addition to publicity in October, you have to go to CCTV to rehearse.

"As for those award ceremonies, I don't think I need to say anything more. This year is destined to be a bumper year for you, and you will most likely be vomited by then."

The strength of "Gangnam" exceeded the expectations of all record companies, including Warner, and it was a hit in terms of popularity, sales and reputation.

More than two months and nearly three months have passed, and the album "Jiangnan" still has two songs, "Jiangnan" and "Big City Little Love", which are generally in the top ten of major charts.

Although the new song "Stubborn" is not an album song, it is still in the top ten.

In the rankings in Hong Kong and Mainland China, "Jiangnan" miraculously topped the charts for 11 and 12 consecutive weeks since reaching the top spot.

Hong Kong is 11 and Mainland China is 12.

The reason why Hong Kong is the champion in the 11th week is because "Stubborn" relied on its popularity to briefly take the first place for a few days in the 10th week, interrupting "Gangnam"'s streak.

The only exception is Taiwan.

In Hong Kong, due to Chow Yun-fat's accident, the promotion was not as popular as expected. F4 still maintains extremely high popularity in Taiwan.

After "Gangnam" topped the charts for 4 weeks, the previous "Meteor Shower" came back with its high-intensity offline activities and topped the charts for 7 weeks, until the Chow Yun-fat incident broke out.

The quarrel with the God of Gamblers made Zhou Yi once again realize that "he is obviously not in Taiwan, but his legend is still circulating in Taiwan."

After briefly stimulating the album's sales, this week, "Jiangnan" relied on its popularity to once again overtake "Meteor Shower" and sit at the top of the throne, once again achieving the dazzling number one ranking in all three places across the Taiwan Strait. score.

Xie Tingfeng's Cantonese album is limited by audience issues and can no longer compete with Zhou Yi's current achievements. And although the songs in his album "Jade Butterfly" are musical enough, obviously none of them are pop songs that can stay on the charts for a long time.

So many people are now eagerly looking forward to Xie Tingfeng's Mandarin album to be released in October, hoping that he can end Zhou Yi's strong streak on the song charts.

Emperor himself was put under pressure and was very cautious in selecting songs for Xie Tingfeng's Mandarin album. Warner also targeted Xie Tingfeng, Zhou Yi's strong rival in the mainland.

Hong Kong will be overthrown by Nicholas Tse sooner or later. There is no doubt about this. After all, people have local advantages.

But the mainland is Zhouyi's basic market.

If Warner wants to help Zhou Yi create an extremely strong record in the mainland, Xie Tingfeng has to guard against it.

However, just when Zhou Yi's graduation EP was in full swing, the appearance of a person shocked the spirits of all record companies——

On September 1, 2001, popular singer Wang Leehom under Sony Music released his new album "Only".

This is a singer who didn't pose much of a threat to Zhou Yi last year. Warner didn't care at first.

However, when Leehom Wang's title song "Only" from his album of the same name gained a lot of exposure at the beginning of its release with the help of the promotion channels of mainland purified water brand Wahaha, the popularity instantly soared and attracted the attention of the music industry.

Before Xie Tingfeng, "Only", written and composed by Wang Leehom himself, took the lead and charged towards Zhou Yi with an extremely stunning attitude!

ps: There are still two chapters, some about the underworld, I suggest you read them after getting up tomorrow~

ps2: There was an error in Huang Bo’s time. He failed to pass the Nortel exam this time... I have revised the reason for the previous chapter.
