The straight man in the entertainment circle

After announcing that Li Mengfei signed a contract with Rieter Entertainment, the press conference for Lin Li's second album has come to an end.

Jiang Da, along with Lin Li and Li Mengfei, bowed to thank the media present.

Afterwards, Jiang Da gave red envelopes to all the media reporters present and invited them to have lunch at Anji Restaurant.

As the saying goes, "Taking advantage of someone's shortcomings and being soft-spoken" is what these reporters do. Naturally, they will say good things about Lin Li when reporting. This is what many entertainment industry press conferences do.

Early the next morning, all major media outlets published news that Lin Li had released a new album.

"Lin Li's second album is released today, and major stars send their blessings!" 》

"Lin Li locks in advance the hottest album of the year!" 》

"The era of music industry is here!" 》

"It's so good, Lin Li's second album Imperfect Children is released today!" 》

Some newspapers also published the news that Li Mengfei signed a contract with Rieter Entertainment.

Second place in "The Voice", Li Mengfei signed a contract with Lida Entertainment and became Lin Li's junior sister. 》

"The reason for Li Mengfei, who has been hidden away by Tianyun for nearly a year, is actually related to Lin Li!" 》

"Tian Yun will regret letting Li Mengfei go one day. 》

Lin Li's new album "Imperfect Children" has also been successfully searched on Weibo.

This is like a holiday for the Royal Guards who have been waiting for Lin Li's new album for a long time.

Lin Li also promoted his new album on Weibo early in the morning. Lin Li finally felt that the songs in it were all sold online and there was nothing shocking about it, so he didn't have any expectations.

When Lin Li's first album "I Am a Superstar" was released, it was priced at 17 yuan, which meant that he was 17 years old. The price of this album "Imperfect Child" was also set at 18 yuan based on this meaning.

Singers in the entertainment industry always link the price of their albums to the singer's fame. The albums of famous singers are more expensive, while the albums of less famous singers are cheaper.

Albums from celebrities with high traffic are expensive, while albums from celebrities with low traffic are cheap.

But Lin Li is different from them. Regardless of his fame and traffic, the price will be the same as his age, rising by one dollar every year. Now the total price is 18 yuan, which is not expensive. Normal albums of first-line singers are more than 30 yuan, and hardcovers can even cost over 100 yuan. .

At the new album press conference, Lin Liyou mentioned the price of his album and why it was set at 18 yuan.

When the reporters learned that Lin Li set the price of the album based on his age, someone asked: "Lin Li, we all know that you are very popular now. You sell an album for 18 yuan or even 80 yuan, so you don't have to worry about selling it, but You said that you set the price based on your age. I wonder if you will slap yourself in the face in the future. What I mean is, when you are 50 years old, will your album cost 50 yuan? At that time, if If no one buys it, will you change it to 15?"

What Lin Li said at the time was: "Nowadays, many popular celebrities like to make a fortune while their popularity is high, for fear that they will have no money in two years. I don't think these people can go far. I am different from them. I want to be an artist who becomes more popular as he gets older, unlike some stars who become less valuable as they get older, so I have the confidence and the courage to do this."

Lin Li's words at that time aroused warm applause. Today, these words were also widely reported, attracting applause from the entire Internet.

Li Mengfei signed a contract with Lida Entertainment Company, and the company also arranged an apartment in the same community as Lin Li.

The next day, Lin Li took Li Mengfei to Wang Tuo's house and recorded three songs for her: "Finger Moon on the Left Hand", "Drawing Heart" and "High Song".

The original key was a bit difficult for Li Mengfei, so she lowered it by half a key. Although it didn't sound as shocking as Lin Libai Wuchang, in terms of completion, Li Mengfei had completed it very well.

Li Mengfei's singing skills and emotions are indeed much better than during the competition. When she was in the competition, she was more versatile and had almost no weaknesses, but she was still relatively outstanding among the contestants in every aspect, and won many awards in the entertainment industry and It is still incomparable to mature singers, but after more than half a year of accumulation, Li Mengfei is now a qualified professional singer.

The training of these six months has not only tested Li Mengfei's will, but also improved her understanding of life, which makes her sing songs with her own flavor.

Even though the original songs of these three songs are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Li Mengfei still sang her own flavor.

This was Li Mengfei's first time recording songs in a professional recording studio, and she was far less familiar with it than Lin Li. The progress was very slow at first, but fortunately she adapted quickly. By the end of the day, she had finally recorded all three songs.

According to Jiang Da and Li Mengfei's ideas, they planned to release these three songs at zero o'clock the next day, and also distributed free songs.

Not everyone is like Lin Li, and everyone takes it for granted to release paid songs.

Lin Li also received negative reviews for a long time after he released paid songs. Many people felt that Lin Li was making money and felt that his songs were not worthy of the fees.

But Lin Li bravely sang "I Feel Like a Superstar" to survive the storm. Now as Lin Li's favorability among passers-by continues to rise, countless people have slowly accepted that Lin Li's songs require payment.

But this does not mean that paying to listen to songs has been accepted by the majority of netizens. They only accept Lin Li, or they only accept fees for songs from a small number of singers.

Most singers release songs for free.

The number of on-demand songs they have is not large. If they charge a fee, they would be grateful if they have a few hundred sales, let alone millions of sales per song like Lin Li. So for the sake of a small profit, they suffer reviling and it affects the spread of their songs. Neither of them wanted to.

Li Mengfei hasn't appeared for more than half a year. Now is the time when she needs to attract other people's attention again, so naturally she has to release free songs.

Lin Li naturally supported it. After all, he originally wanted to distribute free songs, but it turned out that his system did not regard free songs as a condition for completing system tasks, so he changed the charge.

Their idea is to let Li Mengfei sing these three songs first to revive her popularity, and then send her a single EP.

After the recording, Li Mengfei said to Lin Li and Wang Tuo: "Thank you for your hard work. I'll treat you to dinner."

Lin Li smiled and said, "Do you still have money to treat us to dinner?"

Li Mengfei now owes Tianyun more than 10 million, which needs to be repaid within a year, that is, one million a month. This is still a huge sum of money for Li Mengfei now.

"You still have to eat," Li Mengfei said.

Wang Tuo said: "Li Mengfei, Lin Li is a rich man now, so we have to kill him!"

Lin Li smiled and said, "Uncle Wang, you still love me. Okay, let's go, I'll treat you."

With their faces tightly wrapped, Lin Li and Li Mengfei went to a nearby restaurant together and entered a private room. Lin Li was recognized by the private room attendant and after taking a photo with him, the three of them had dinner quietly.

After eating, Wang Tuo drove Li Mengfei and Lin Li back.

Lin Li sent Li Mengfei downstairs to her house, and just as he was about to leave, Li Mengfei said, "Why don't you go up and sit down?"

Lin Li thought for a while and said, "I don't want to be alone."

Li Mengfei wanted to say that I don't know how to eat people, but after thinking about it, Lin Li was now a first-line star, so he still had to pay attention to the impact, and she couldn't make it difficult for him.

"Okay, I'll go up."

"Um."

After saying that, the two waved goodbye.

Early the next morning, Lin Li's "Imperfect Children" album sales data were officially released by the Audiovisual Products Association.

The official Weibo account of the Audiovisual Products Association posted the news at 1 a.m.

On the first day, sales of "Imperfect Children" reached 135,000 copies!

This figure exceeds Leng Ying's first-day sales of 128,000 copies four years ago, becoming the highest first-day album sales in eighteen years!

Major media have also reported on it.

The third most searched topic on Weibo, Lin Li’s new album reaches a new high!

The highest first-day album sales was 184,000 copies of Zhang Jingfa’s album 18 years ago!

In the past eighteen years, there are only a few people such as Leng Ying, Zhou Siyuan, and Zhou Lingling whose album sales exceeded 100,000 on the first day.

When Zhang Jing set a first-day album sales record of 184,000 copies, Lin Li was not yet born.

Therefore, many imperial guards commented on Weibo.

"After Lin Li was born, no one in the music world can compare to Lin Li!"

Lin Li remembers that the sales of his first album were only over 70,000 points on the first day. At that time, he had just won the title of "The Voice" and was very popular. He did not expect that his appeal now is twice as strong as that time. .

Leng Ying retweeted the official Weibo of the Audiovisual Products Association, @Lin Li, and expressed her congratulations.

Many celebrities who have personal relationships with Lin Li have also forwarded their congratulations to Lin Li, and even many people who have not interacted with Lin Li have also congratulated him.

For example, Hong Han, Jin Xuan, Fan Yuting and others.

For a time, the entertainment industry was filled with news about Lin Li’s record sales, and countless people truly realized that the era of numerous music circles was really coming!

And everyone is a witness of this era!

Lin Li watched it for a while, went to each celebrity's Weibo to thank them, and then put the matter down.

Lin Li opened the major music websites and looked at the data of the songs released by Li Mengfei at midnight.

Because it was released at midnight, it was still early, and these songs by Li Mengfei have not yet entered the top ten of major music platforms. The highest song is only ranked 15th.

Very few of the comments under Li Mengfei's songs were from Li Mengfei's original fans, but most of them were directed at Lin Li.

Gary Jiabin: "Li Mengfei, it's such a long time ago. My singing is better than before."

Kisame fan group: "After waiting for a long time, these songs finally have a girl version. It's not amazing, but it's pretty good."

Ahwu twisted: "Li Mengfei, come on!"

涙ギづboy: "I still like Lin Li singing better, but it is said that Li Mengfei helped Lin Li secretly, so I may also like you by the way."

Lin Li posted a Weibo post to promote Li Mengfei's three songs.

Lin Li has attracted much attention at this time, and everyone is waiting for him to post relevant Weibo about how popular his new album is. If it were such a highlight moment, other celebrities would definitely forward it immediately, for fear that others would not know.

But Lin Li seemed to have nothing to do with him. Netizens waited for a long time, but in the end, Lin Li promoted Li Mengfei.

However, the effect was naturally explosive. By noon, all three songs sung by Li Mengfei were in the top ten of the new song charts on the three major music platforms.

Moreover, many old fans of Li Mengfei were revealed.

But it seems that compared to the traffic brought by Lin Li, the voice of Li Mengfei's original fans is much smaller.

In the evening, Li Mengfei and Yu Qin, the new manager arranged for her by the company, visited Lin Li's house.

Whether it was Li Mengfei out of gratitude or Yu Qin, a new manager in the industry, out of relationship maintenance, they all had to come to Lin Li's house.

Song Wenjie knew that Li Mengfei was helping her son but was hidden by Tianyun, so she was very close to Li Mengfei and kept picking up food for her during meals, which made Li Mengfei feel a little embarrassed.

After dinner, Yu Qin took Song Wenjie with her and exchanged some agent work matters, while Lin Li and Li Mengfei sat on the sofa in the living room.

"Thank you for the hospitality." Li Mengfei said.

Lin Li smiled and said: "Thank my mother, I don't have any entertainment."

"I'm here today, so don't disturb me."

"Don't bother me. I think my mother likes you quite a lot."

Li Mengfei was moved in her heart and asked: "What about you?"

Lin Li was stunned, looked at Li Mengfei, and asked, "What am I?"

"Oh, it's nothing..."

Lin Li saw that she was not in a high mood and said, "Are you worried about the future development?"

Li Mengfei glanced at Lin Li and saw Lin Li's serious face. Li Mengfei couldn't help laughing. Lin Li's confused look was really funny.

"Yes." Li Mengfei nodded along with Lin Li.

Song Wenjie listened on the sidelines and said, "Mengfei, I see that the songs you sang by Lin Li are not very popular. They are still popular."

Li Mengfei gave a wry smile and said, "That's Lin Li's credit. Those people were all there for the original songs. It seems like I don't have many fans left."

The entertainment industry is cruel, especially for popular talent show singers, who lose their popularity most easily. Not to mention Li Mengfei, even Lin Li himself is not sure how many of his fans will remain after he disappeared for more than half a year. of.

"Don't worry too much. It may be that your former fans haven't seen you for a long time and haven't paid much attention to the news in the entertainment industry recently. After a while, they will know about your comeback and I believe they will come to support you. " Song Wenjie comforted.

Yu Qin also said: "Even if you start from scratch, there is nothing to be afraid of. More people will know your strength and they will like you."

Li Mengfei looked at Lin Li and said thoughtfully: "I hope so."

Lin Li remembered a song in his mind, which was very similar to Li Mengfei's mood at the moment.

"Tomorrow is the weekend, let's go to Uncle Wang's place. I'll write your song tonight, and we'll record it tomorrow. The version number for Jiang Da's EP release should be applied for soon, and it can be released after recording. ." Lin Li said.

Li Mengfei was a little surprised and asked: "So fast?"

Lin Li asked: "Are you saying that I am fast, or that Jiang Da is fast?"

Li Mengfei felt a little weird when she heard this, and said awkwardly: "Uh... then I'll wait for you tomorrow."

Song Wenjie came over curiously and asked, "Son, what song did you write for Meng Fei?"

Li Mengfei and Yu Qin also cheered up and looked at Lin Li.

Nowadays, Lin Li's songs can cost hundreds of thousands, if not millions, and Lin Li's level is obvious to all, so they are naturally curious and looking forward to it.

"This song calls me."

"Me?" Song Wenjie was stunned, then asked, "I am me, fireworks with different colors?"

Lin Li once sang a song "I" during the "Super Voice" competition, and Song Wenjie thought it was this song.

Li Mengfei and Yu Qin thought so too, and were a little disappointed. This song was obviously more suitable for Lin Li, and it was not the new song tailor-made for Li Mengfei as Lin Li said.

"No, it's another song, a girl's version. When I finish writing it and Li Mengfei sings it, you will know." Lin Li was obviously too lazy to explain.

Li Mengfei and Yu Qin felt a little more relaxed when they heard it was another song "I". At the same time, they were full of expectations for the song they were about to see tomorrow.
