Chapter 111: A child? I'm guessing!
Observation group, stay here and continue observing.
Operations continue.
And the real peak operation has already begun.
During this period, the variety show "Voice of Dark Gold" showed its fangs and came on with great momentum.
In the third episode, the ratings exceeded three!
It directly became the highest-rated variety show in the country.
Lin Xiaoxing lost to the Red Ducks at the cost of his reputation and immediately topped the trending searches.
However, fans do not think that Lin Xiaoxing is embarrassed, because Lin Xiaoxing is famous for his outstanding singing style. It is difficult for others to imitate him, and it is difficult for him to change his voice and singing skills.
I came here without really understanding the rules, I just came here to play.
Therefore, in the eyes of passers-by, the Red Duck defeated Lin Xiaoxing, and defeated veteran male and female first-line singers in succession. Even Tanzhao himself should be at the quasi-king level.
The identity of the red-skinned duck has begun to spark a lot of discussion.
Lin Xiaoxing's personal fans only think that Lin Xiaoxing's participation in the show is fun and funny, and they don't feel embarrassed at all.
With yet another first-line singer being eliminated, three first-line singers have been eliminated from the entire "Dark Gold Voice" program, one per episode, and the big devil has been eliminated for two consecutive episodes.
Any one of these people is qualified to be a mentor on other music programs, but they were contestants on this show and were eliminated.
For a while, passers-by, variety show fans and music fans felt that "The Voice of Dark Gold" was a super production.
Once this impression is formed, maintaining ratings becomes much easier.
As the show became popular and famous online, it not only appeared on Weibo's hot searches, but also frequently appeared on Yinlang's hot searches and Bilibili's hot searches.
The most discussed issue is who the red-skinned duck is.
Because there is Fengchu.
No one doubted that the red-skinned duck was Han Zhou.
What's more, Han Zhou didn't perform well in "Superstar of Tomorrow".
Among singers, Han Zhou's singing skills are only average.
The singers could all sense that Red Duck’s singing skills were not particularly good.
But the red-skinned duck's singing skills are amazing.
He knows everything!
It's like, in a group of scientists, there is a person whose mechanical research is average, but his medical chemistry has reached the level of a scientist. In addition to this, he has three or four other types of research that have also reached the level of a scientist, and it is still unknown how much he has not yet brought out.
That's amazing.
The singers all thought it was amazing, and in the eyes of ordinary audiences, it was a miracle!
Ordinary audiences can tell the difference between good and bad songs, but it is difficult for them to tell which of two first-line singers has better singing skills.
Even the difference in singing skills between second-tier singers and first-tier singers cannot be distinguished by many passers-by.
The breadth of the red duck is mistakenly mistaken by passers-by for depth.
A lot of passers-by felt that the Red Duck was so awesome and must be a superstar.
Although he is very young, he is at least a quasi-king, or a tough guy who has the ability but has not yet achieved that level of fame.
To the extent that, even the prospect of a superstar or a quasi-superstar, or even the hope of a superstar or a quasi-superstar, has not received this kind of discussion.
Han Zhou still felt that this program was perfect for him.
Especially the task of writing essays with a given topic.
What's in Han Zhou's head is like a collection of perfect essays that no one has ever seen. What kind of essay topic can't he find? !
A trend has also formed on the Internet, and people have begun to speculate what song the Red Duck will sing in the next episode.
"To be honest, it's very difficult to write a rock song for a historical figure."
"I tend to change the songs that were previously written for historical figures into rock and roll, something simpler."
"Will the red-skinned duck meet the devil again this time? That's fake!"
"Oh, what variety show doesn't use some inside information to create hype? Popularity is more important than anything else. As long as the song was written by Red Duck and he sings it, I think the quality of this show continues the high popularity of the first three episodes."
However, Han Zhou doesn't have time to pay attention to how people on the Internet are discussing him or the Red Duck.
This time, "The Voice of Dark Gold" will be recorded in two consecutive episodes, so Han Zhou has more than ten consecutive days to deal with the idol group's affairs and devote himself to it.
Han Zhou has been making songs for HNT these days.
The film Han Zhou made for them was "Wrong, Wrong, Wrong".
Three days later, "My Skateboard Shoes" directly blew up Bilibili and was also very popular on Yinlang.
Many people will leave a comment like "fashion, fashion, the most fashionable" or "friction, friction" in irrelevant comment sections.
Works of this level, no matter whether they sound good or not, or whether they are memes or not, have at least become popular and have become phenomenal works.
Of course, whether this phenomenon is a good thing or not will take time to settle before we know.
When Han Zhou was making songs, the fan base of the three new entertainment stars exploded.
After a few days of development, the Penguin Group of Xinyu's three members already has four groups of four thousand people!
This is very scary.
Han Zhou and An Lan only have four fans in common.
What’s even more terrifying is that the average age of these four groups of thousands is not seventeen or eighteen, but nineteen.
In the group of Xinyu Sanzi, there are many young people aged 17 or 18, but there are also mother fans.
The issue of mom fans is very strange. I wonder if they are fans of Lin Xiaoxing pretending to be fans...
But they really exist.
And today, several group leaders jointly announced an explosive news about the three new entertainment figures.
"The three little ones couldn't get a good song for their next song, so New World asked Han Zhou to buy a song, but it was not for the three little ones to sing, but for HNT."
The entire fan base exploded!
"It only took us four days to get the single sales over 500,000, reaching the number we mentioned before, and we also raised 500,000 to get the three little ones on the Rising Stars Chart. Why shouldn't we release a song for them?"
"Was everything you said before a lie?"
"I'm not lying. 500,000 sales means the money spent on making songs has been recovered. But the company won't let them continue to make songs if they don't make money. In addition, the company will ask them to continue to participate in small-scale activities... I heard that Wang Mo's recent event had no buses after get off work at midnight, so he had to take a taxi home. His monthly subsidy of more than 1,000 yuan was not enough to cover the bus fare."
The fans were so heartbroken that they cried, why is it so tragic?
New World Company is not human and actually exploits the three sons of New Entertainment.
Someone else found the highlight: "HNT? Why?! The company released songs for these three weirdos but not for our three little ones?!!"
Someone posted HNT's "My Skateboard Shoes" to the group.
Instantly, the entire group exploded.
What are the characteristics of the fans of the three new entertainment stars?
Appearance Association, likes the three new entertainment stars with high appearance.
Fashion Association, really hates Tuhai.
I feel sorry for the three new entertainment stars and believe that anyone who prevents them from making progress and debuting is an enemy.
He is willing to spend money on the three members of Xinyu and considers himself as their relative.
We are the relatives of the three little ones, and your New World Company is just a black-hearted company that exploits them.
What kind of local rock group is HNT? Why should we make songs for them and not for the three little ones?
An insider immediately sent out a report: "There's really nothing we can do. HNT is very popular on Bilibili and Douyin. Recently, they have accepted seven small commercial performances in the past five days, as well as interviews and video advertising endorsements. In the past few days alone, they have earned millions for New World."
"They are all making money, but the three little ones are still not making money. Of course the company won't care about the three little ones. New World Entertainment has no vision and no brains, and can't tell the difference between the big and small kings."
Many people are not convinced and say that the three little ones are so outstanding, so why don’t they have three weird ones to make money?
Immediately, the topic evolved into.
It seems that everyone's support is not strong enough. The three members of the HNT group are so ugly, but they can make so much money. Look at the fighting power of their fans. And then look at ourselves. How did it take us four days to raise 300,000!
The rich lady in the group was not convinced: "It's still the old rules. Set a number, and everyone comes to pull the flag. Ana and I will contribute one-tenth of the money. As long as everyone can raise enough money to pull the flag, we will invest a sum!"
"The problem we are facing now is directly related to whether the three new entertainment stars can survive in the entertainment industry."
"If HNT continues to be so popular, New World will pay more and more attention to them and ignore Wang Chuyang and others."
"We must finish HNT off in a short period of time and clear the way for the three new entertainment companies!"
"Complete this task in one week!"
"Sisters and brothers, this is the first war since we came together, we must win!"
"We are invincible!"
The internal traitors were all confused.
Is it really that awesome? The first goal is to bring down the already popular HNT?
They soon reported it to Han Zhou.
Han Zhou meant to let them go.
Even if they didn't take action, HNT would have collapsed in the next step.
Zhang Die was stunned: "Brother Han, you allow their fans to attack us?"
Han Zhou: "What else can I do? I'll go out and say that I'm the boss of Xinyu Sanzi, and ask them to give me some face and not attack you?"
Wei Chengan scratched his head: "Then the ones who will be attacked will be the three of us plus you, Brother Han..."
Han Zhou: "They pooled their money together and organized a team to scold you. Do you think you can handle it?"
Liu Yanzhou is very confident: "They are no match for our fans."
After the first three days, HNT is no longer the same HNT that was in the first three days of debut.
Because, in the first three days, there were a lot of people scolding them on Bilibili.
But after three days, all the Bilibili sites were praising them.
The singing is free and unrestrained, the works are well written, very good, awesome, natural talent, the strongest group in the future.
The original singer of "My Skateboard Shoes" in the previous life lost himself in the midst of all the bragging. He thought he was really awesome and eventually became a psychopath and was sent to a mental hospital.
There is a saying that goes, when you become famous, good people will surround you.
Ordinary audiences are blindly obedient. They only know that "My Skate Shoes" is popular, so they praise it. If they don't praise it, they will seem to be out of touch with the times.
If you listen carefully, this song seems to be quite interesting, which means... this song is well produced!
In their perception, a good song means the singer is awesome, and awesomeness deserves to be praised.
They never thought that their praise would become a soft knife of flattery.
Han Zhou's original plan was to let HNT feel how popular he was first, and then be trampled into the mud.
Then it suddenly became popular again.
The ups and downs have worn away the lazy temperament and immaturity of this group.
Who are these three brothers? They are trainees in Tianle. They are too lazy to memorize the time and don't know the directions.
It is impossible to make them understand the truth of this world without ups and downs.
In Han Zhou’s summer plans, HNT is more important than the three new entertainment companies.
The three companies of New Entertainment may be high-quality assets and a powerful tool for making money in the future New World.
However, HNT is the biggest selling point of the plan and the highlight of the program in the early stage, and it is the key to attracting traffic.
Soon, the fans of the three new entertainment stars were working frantically day and night.
Whenever Weibo and short video platforms mention the videos of the New Entertainment Three, they will definitely take action, leave their handsome photos, praise how handsome they are, and use the same rhetoric.
They are well aware that attracting rational fans is not conducive to the growth of the New Entertainment Three. This kind of rhetoric can attract more people to fight for the New Entertainment Three.
They also know very well that this unified rhetoric means that they are not very smart.
But they don't care about that at all.
Even some of the wealthy ladies who paid the money knew from the beginning that New World Entertainment was "cheating" them. As young people of the new era, they see things from a different perspective, even clearer than the old entertainment companies.
But they don't care.
Because they are playing a development game.
The name is, cultivate your favorite person among the three new entertainment stars into a superstar!
How can it be more fun to play a cultivation game on your phone than to play it in real life?
Money? Rich ladies pay hundreds of thousands, which is the same as ordinary people paying tens of dollars.
Ordinary people can still spend a few hundred dollars to buy sneakers and basketballs, but the rich lady spent millions to support a little boy she has never met. It is just the same consumption as buying a basketball or a pair of rackets.
With these groups, the message spreads virally in the target area.
The three new entertainment stars haven’t even made their debut yet, but their Weibo fans have already reached 300,000!
You have to know that these are all active attention, not fake attention. There is no such thing as buying fake fans before the show starts.
Although many of them are followers of the same person on multiple accounts, some of them are just followed casually and do not log in to Weibo.
But among them, there are more than 30,000 people who are capable of fighting and willing to contribute from time to time.
In other words, more than 30,000 people open the super topic every day.
The number of hardcore fans willing to fight around the clock quickly reached around 6,000.
After three days, the fan group of Xinyu’s three sons raised three million yuan in funds!
And four departments were formed, ready to crush HNT at any time.
On this day, HNT released his new song and new MV.
"Wrong, wrong, wrong."
"What rubbish, so ugly."
"What is this? It's ugly. Is it non-mainstream?"
At this time, non-mainstream has become a symbol of rural unsophistication, and the fans of the three new entertainment stars are very good at targeting key areas.
"Ugly? This song isn't ugly, it's well written, it's just that the singing is too ugly."
"Tsk tsk, with this kind of strength, they are so shameless to ask Han Zhou to buy songs. What kind of group is this? Is this hype?"
Soon, ordinary netizens from Bilibili also came in.
"Hmm? Such a bad reputation? Let me hear it."
"Wrong, Wrong, Wrong" is actually not bad, but it was written in the wrong era.
The right song was released at the wrong time, in the wrong place, and the wrong person was chosen to sing it.
The arrangement style of the non-mainstream era.
The MV style of the non-mainstream era.
It was posted on Bilibili, which is currently mocking and cracking down on non-mainstream existence throughout the entire site.
The current Bilibili has not started to use non-mainstream memes, but is actually insulting people.
When a song like this is released, its quality has nothing to do with it anymore. If someone else tries to lead the discussion, everyone will just start criticizing it.
Han Zhou was also surprised. He had thought that the song would be criticized within a week after it was released.
I didn't expect it to come so quickly and be so intense.
However, this also indirectly shows that the number of die-hard fans of the three new entertainment stars is already exaggerated.
It's already terrifying for a trainee who hasn't debuted yet to have a fan base of this size.
Some so-called idols who have actually debuted don’t even have so many real fans.
Sure enough, the powerful combination of work quality and idol operation plugged loopholes while taking advantage of brainwashing, and the resulting effect was very good.
Han Zhou is well aware that in the past, when the idol economy reached its late stage and everyone was stepping on each other too much, they were forced to pursue works as the main product. Those idols who were blackened by the entire internet did indeed cause many people to turn from haters to passers-by or from passers-by to fans.
However, it is still a bit risky to do this from the beginning of the idol era.
Fortunately, it worked.
The practice room is still the same practice room.
It's completely different from the situation a few days ago.
At the beginning, the three members of Xinyu Entertainment did not have many fans, but HNT became an overnight sensation.
It’s only been a few days? The number of fans of Xinyu Sanzi has increased, HNT has been scolded, and it seems that he is not far from being blacklisted by the entire network.
At this time, Han Zhou was going to record the fourth and fifth episodes of "The Voice of Dark Gold" in Jinling.
Of course, I just told the trainees that I had something to do.
As soon as Han Zhou left, the atmosphere in the entire practice room changed completely.
Zhang Die was the one who received the most abuse on the Internet.
Zhang Die’s clumsy dance to the previous song “My Skateboard Shoes” was praised by many people for his good timing.
This time, "Wrong, Wrong, Wrong" was criticized harshly.
Liu Yanzhou went from being confident and arrogant to becoming dull and silent.
Wei Chengan stubbornly practiced the dance to his new song "Wrong, Wrong, Wrong".
Wang Mo whispered: "Brother Chu Yang, will we... be like this too?"
Just became famous overnight, and within a week, he was completely criticized?
Maybe the entire network will be blacklisted soon.
Is it so scary?
Wang Chuyang was happy: "Brother Han did it on purpose, can't you see it?"
Zhang Die was getting angry: "If Brother Han knew that you said bad things about him, I'm afraid you guys really won't have the next song."
Wang Chuyang stood up and said, "Can't you see? Brother Han is deliberately manipulating you to tell other cooperating entertainment companies that I, Han Zhou, can even make a group like this popular."
"And now letting you get scolded is to tell them: I can make them famous or I can make them unpopular."
"Moreover, from the beginning, your group was going to sacrifice to the fans of the New Entertainment Trio."
"It's just that Brother Han himself may not know what the effect of the flag sacrifice will be."
After becoming famous overnight, Zhang Die's admiration for Han Zhou was beyond words. He didn't believe that Han Zhou would play with him like this. HNT: "Wang Chuyang! Even though you are the eldest prince of Tianle, I am not afraid of you!"
"I don't allow you to say that about Brother Han!"
Lin Jianqiu pulled Wang Chuyang and said, "Forget it, stop talking."
Wang Chuyang sneered: "Stupid."
"A fan of an idol group will always be just a child if he has never seen blood."
"And now, after they destroyed HNT, they know in their hearts that they may have done something wrong."
"But people just don't want to admit their mistakes. Because of this mistake, they will firmly brainwash themselves and think that they can do anything for the three sons of Xinyu. In the future, they can do more excessive things, and their fighting power will be stronger, and the road to success will be easier for us!"
Who is Wang Chuyang? What family was he born into?
Although idol economy is a new thing, the tricks of stepping on, blackmailing and praising in the entertainment industry are still old tactics.
Can't Wang Chuyang see it?
Zhang Die was angry: "Why do you say that Brother Han did it on purpose?"
Wang Chuyang, who was sitting on the table, jumped off the table. "Zhang Die, are you a child? I'm just telling you the truth. If you don't want to hear it, just ignore it."
"HNT, if you guys are always so emotional, you will never be able to be on stage."
"This kind of overnight success? I can easily make anyone do it."
"Just pick a random person on the street and go to a public toilet to grab a lump and swallow it, take a video and post it online, and tomorrow he will be more famous than you."
"Don't you have a brain?"
"You are always emotional, you are not worthy of being an idol. If it weren't for Brother Han supporting you, you wouldn't even be qualified to get close to the door of the entertainment industry."
"When we were practicing in Tianle before, each of you three had a better foundation than Lin Jianqiu and I. What have you achieved now?"
Wang Chuyang stabbed his heart again and again, and Zhang Die was furious: "You fart!"
The two were on edge.
Lin Jianqiu sighed, and with one hand on each head, he pressed both of them to the floor: "Are you still arguing?"
Wang Chuyang: "Old Lin, damn it! You are so strong, are you trying to murder my brother?"
Zhang Die: “…”
Lin Jianqiu let go: "Let's practice separately."
"The big practice room is for you guys."
Wei Chengan helped Zhang Die up and was furious when he saw his captain being beaten. "Lin Jianqiu, stop pretending. I know you three are laughing at us."
"We are not popular anymore. We don't deserve to use the big practice room. Let's go next door."
The fans' choices and mentality quickly affect the idols themselves.
Wang Chuyang actually knew very well why this happened, but Wang Chuyang felt that he needed to say these words to Zhang Die.
Two days later, Han Zhou came back after recording the fourth and fifth episodes of "The Voice of Dark Gold".
We discovered the situation of two groups of people.
But Han Zhou didn't care.
Han Zhou gave a summary report to all participating companies.
The three new entertainment companies released a song in the last ten days, and the operating cost was about 1.4 million.
Fans purchased this single 570,000 times, for a total of 2.85 million. After deducting the 50-cent commission from Penguin Music for each song sold and the operating expenses, 2.4 million of the money returned to New World.
During this period, fans raised 500,000 yuan to help the three new entertainment stars enter the Rising Star List, and raised 3 million yuan as funds to blackmail HNT. 3 million yuan of this amount went into the hands of New World as pure profit.
In ten days, the total net profit was 5.4 million.
The songs released by HNT in recent days have brought in revenue of 700,000 due to their popularity on the Internet, and the commercial cooperation contract is as high as 14 million!
The net profit is about six million.
But Han Zhou did not accept these commercial contracts because it was not the right time yet. If he had accepted them, HNT would have been finished like the original singer of "Skateboard Shoes".
Tianle, Global China, Mailang.
They are all veterans in the circle.
Who has ever seen a new artist make 5 million in 10 days after launching? !
I was just stunned.
"The profit is so high? It seems that we must start the whole plan immediately. Let's get started!"
"This summer, change the entire entertainment industry!"
…
Next, "Wrong, Wrong" received more and more criticism, and online, people began to call HNT the afterglow of the non-mainstream era.
Zhangdie is used as a synonym to mock people who have uncoordinated limbs and are bad at dancing.
Take HNT as the representative of Tuhai.
There are also many Photoshopped emojis circulating, all of which are non-mainstream with the faces of the three people.
Just like that, three days later, Han Zhou gathered HNT.
"You are being hacked so badly now that many partners would rather pay the penalty than cancel their business cooperation with you."
“The song ‘Wrong, Wrong, Wrong’ was a failure.”
HNT trio is very low pressure.
Liu Yanzhou was desperate: "Are we going to disband? I think Zhang Die can go solo. I am the one who is holding them back."
Han Zhou: "There is good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Wei Chengan was helpless: "Brother Han, what bad news could there be? Tell me."
Han Zhou glanced at Wei Chengan and said, "I haven't figured out how to tell you the bad news first, so I'll tell you the good news first."
"The good news is that you are popular again."
The three of them were stunned.
What the hell, became famous overnight, and was blacklisted by the entire internet within a week.
Is it popular again now?
Is the entertainment industry so sloppy?
What are you doing?
Han Zhou took out the market research report and threw it out: "The bad news is that you are popular, but you are popular in the country of bananas."
"The company has decided to send you to Banana Country to earn some money while you continue to practice and see if you can improve. Maybe if you perform well, I will consider letting you participate in the summer idol variety show, the number one idol variety show in the country."
The three of them looked at each other.
Go to...Banana Country?
Zhang Die looked at Liu Yanzhou and then at Wei Chengan: "I want to go."
Liu Yanzhou didn't want to go and glanced at Zhang Die.
Zhang Die: "Last week, we made some money, and I sent it to my grandma. All the money she has ever seen in her life is less than half of what I made last week."
"I want to continue, do you want to go?"
Wei Chengan: "Go ahead, can it get any worse?"
Liu Yanzhou: "You go... I'll go too."
…
In the big practice room, Lin Jianqiu said, "According to rumors, the company has issued visas to the three of them and is sending them to Banana Country to make money."
“It is said that ‘Wrong, Wrong, Wrong’ lost a lot of money in China, but it became a huge hit in Banana Country!”
The Banana Country learns everything from China, but its fashion trends are delayed by several years or even decades.
Today, the country of bananas is still watching the hit TV series that were broadcast in China ten years ago, because it is cheap to buy them and broadcast them now.
In the country of bananas, non-mainstream songs are now popular. Let's listen to the non-mainstream songs that were once popular in China.
And now...the new song "Wrong, Wrong" was released and immediately attracted huge attention.
Lin Jianqiu: "I heard that the company is going to release a Mandarin version of "Wrong, Wrong, Wrong" for them...
Wang Chuyang watched the fierce battle in the film and said, "I've said it before, they're going to go to Banana Country."
"Brother Han is really terrifying. Whether it's us or them, every step of development is in Brother Han's plan and has been determined long ago."
Wang Mo: "Before you said they would definitely go to Banana Country, I didn't believe it..."
“But how did Han know that ‘Wrong, Wrong, Wrong’ would be a hit in Banana Country? He planned to send them to Banana Country from the beginning. It must have been intentional.”
Wang Chuyang said calmly: "So, in fact, who is popular and who is not, it is up to Brother Han to decide."
"You two should prepare for the day when you become top stars or even superstars. Brother Han will definitely take us there one day in the future."
Wang Mo fell into fantasy.
Lin Jianqiu whispered: "Six Six..."
Wang Mo turned around and said, "Liu Liu? Is she the girl from the previous training camp? If you become a first-line star, you are still thinking about her??!"
"You're secretly in love with her, aren't you?"
Wang Chuyang: "Stop talking nonsense, kid, don't ask too many questions."
"By the way, Brother Han said that you need to practice endurance. What time is it? You should go for a night run !"
Wang Mo was stunned: "But... the fourth episode of "Dark Gold Voice" will be broadcast today! I want to watch the show, and it will start in five minutes."
Wang Chuyang looked at the movie on his phone and silently said, "Who is the red-skinned duck?"
Lin Jianqiu: "He said he was my teacher. He must be one of the top singers in Tianle. I'm not particularly familiar with those top singers in Tianle..."
Wang Mo: "Guess what song the red-skinned duck sings?"
Wang Chuyang glanced at Wang Mo: "Child? I'm still guessing."
"You'll find out when you wait and see."
