When the small album "Pipa Xing" was released for one week, Tianyu Media held a celebration party.

Of course, their celebration party was not held like Christmas Eve. It was just that the boss "abuses his power" and directly booked a few tables in Shennong Restaurant, opened a few bottles of wine, and everyone had a meal to celebrate.

If people from other companies know about this way of celebration, the boss will probably vomit to death. After more than half a year of opening, Shennong Restaurant has become the first brand in the gourmet world in Suzhou, no matter what food list it is on , are well-deserved No.1.

If Ning City also becomes a city that publishes the Michelin Guide, then Shennong Restaurant will definitely be on the list, and maybe it can even get three stars.

Of course, although their dishes are not cheap, they are definitely not particularly expensive, but anyone who knows a little about this store knows that it is absolutely hard to find a seat in Shennong Restaurant now, unless it is energy If you are too big, you can directly sit in the box on the second floor through other means. If normal people want to eat, they can only wait in line until they die.

There is never a day when there is a vacant seat in their house.

Holding the company celebration party in the store, this kind of behavior can no longer be described as extravagant, the whole thing is extremely extravagant, which is unimaginable.

Except for Tianyu Media, no company can do such a thing.

The employees of the company sat in their positions one by one, and Jiang Hongfei was standing, holding a wine glass in his hand, which contained clear wine.

Tianyu Media is a very health-preserving company. Even if they drink alcohol, everyone drinks medicinal wine produced by Shennong.

It can be said to be very noble.

Jiang Hongfei said: "During this time, everyone has worked hard." He raised his glasses to Liu Pipa and Bai Hongxiu who were sitting at the first table, "Pipa and Sister Bai are especially hardworking."

Liu Pipa and Bai Hongxiu also raised their cups and sent them forward through the air.

Although the two of them work hard, judging from their appearance, they don't look overworked at all. Not to mention Liu Pipa, buying albums is a way for fans to express their love for her, and the more popular her songs are, the more popular she is. The more power of faith she can get, during this period of time, she was filled with a rosy face by various flavors of faith, and her complexion became better and better.

And Bai Hongxiu is another kind.

She is a typical strong woman who enjoys the happiness brought by work very much. To her, hard work is absolutely nothing. On the contrary, busy work makes her feel the meaning of existence.

And the joy of success after busy work is the best reward for this person, and after the sales results have been settled, Bai Hongxiu eats and sleeps well, and even suffered from insomnia a while ago. The dark circles brought about by her have disappeared. If you say that she works hard, no one will believe it.

Jiang Hongfei said with a smile: "The sales of the first small album reached 54 in the first week of its release, which has never been seen in the whole flower country." He said, "I believe that this year, Liu Pipa will definitely be able to get the ifpi Certified Platinum."

There is encouragement in his eyes: "Currently, there is only one singer in the mainland who has been certified as a platinum record. I believe you can become the second."

The full name of ifpi is the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, which represents the music industry in many countries and regions around the world. The standard sales certification system based on ifpi includes four levels of silver records, gold records, platinum records and diamond records. If the sales volume is Multiples of platinum and diamond records will be awarded to multi-platinum and multi-diamond records.

Platinum records rarely appear in Huahua Country. In the minds of fans, platinum records are exclusive to European and American singers, but even so, Taylor Swift's "1989" was predicted to be the last platinum record. Of course, this The prophecy was finally broken.

Due to various reasons such as different populations in each country, the certification standards are still different. Even now that the recording industry is in a recession, some countries directly use sales volume for certification, but anyway, they can get the certification issued by ifpi. Still pretty amazing.

Liu Pipa stood up and thanked Jiang Hongfei graciously. Looking at her expression, she knew that Liu Pipa was also full of confidence and expectations for the future.

Jiang Hongfei said: "Okay, okay, I know that everyone can't wait to eat, after all, facing a big table of delicious food, listening to me babbling is simply a kind of torture."

His self-deprecating made everyone below burst into laughter, that is, in a company like Tianyu Media where all members are young, there is such a relaxed atmosphere, where the boss can mingle with his subordinates.

Jiang Hongfei said: "Then let's eat."

With that said, he also sat beside Kong Xuan.

After the start of the new year, the major entertainment companies in the industry are staring at Tianyu Media, wanting to see what they will do in the new year.

Last year was the year of the rise of Tianyu Media. It only took them one year from the establishment of the company to the ranks of mid-to-high-level entertainment media companies. Faced with such a rapidly rising opponent, all the established companies in the circle are holding a wait-and-see attitude , and because they are colleagues, they knew the news that Liu Pipa was going to release a small album before others.

Of course, Kong Xuan and Yin Shou's activities in Europe were unknown to them, so when the Arthur lipstick endorsed by Kong Xuan was sold like crazy all over the world, the expressions of the bosses of these companies were very hard to describe.

Bosses: Is that all right? ? ?

And there is also Yin Shou, although they also have child actors, but they have never seen child actors who can become popular like this. What milk powder is out of stock and goes directly to Paris Fashion Week, it is simply cheating!

I have to say that before Liu Pipa released her mini-album, many people burned incense and prayed to Buddha in the hope that her mini-album would not sell well. Who said that as long as the stars released by Tianyu Media develop better than each other, even if they are opening a restaurant They are all making money like crazy, if singers also develop to the point where people feel terrible, then how will they survive!

A company must always have a starlet who does not develop well!Although in terms of domestic reputation, Liu Pipa who appeared on the Spring Festival Gala is already very good, and the possibility of poor album sales is not high, but people always have dreams in their hearts.

The dream of many people is that the sales of Liu Pipa will fall to the bottom.

As a result, when the sales volume came out in a week, they were going to vomit blood. 54, this figure is comparable to famous singers in Europe and America, much better than they imagined, and this is only the first small album, right? What a joke!

At the beginning, the bosses and employees of other companies still didn’t believe this number. Even if Liu Pipa becomes popular again, she is still a new singer, and it’s not like the kind of crazy fans who are willing to spend money on albums. Even if there are crazy fans who are willing to buy more albums for Xiaoxianrou Xiaohuadan, there is a limit to it, adding up to tens of thousands of albums.

This may be the most unbelievable thing for them. What does it mean that an ancient singer can reach 54 sales? It means that she really sings well and many people like her style, so she sells go so much.

People from other entertainment companies are vomiting blood. There are only so many resources in the entertainment industry. If another family produces a big star, their resources will be divided. Now Tianyu Media has another powerful player. How can they survive!

They can be said to be very sad.

What's even more frightening is that after the end of the week, Liu Pipa's sales have not dropped. The domestic market is not as crazy as it was at the beginning, and gradually fell back. However, the sales data in foreign markets is not slowing down.

Jiang Hongfei saw that the situation between Neon Country and the United States had changed, so he immediately poured resources outward and stepped up publicity efforts.

If others do this, people in the industry will definitely scoff at him, thinking that he is crazy. The domestic market has just started, and he wants to rush overseas, even if it is a daydream.

But it was Jiang Hongfei who made this decision, and people in the circle had to weigh it up, not to mention the employees of Tianyu Media Company, they were all of one mind with Jiang Hongfei, as long as it was a decision he insisted on, they would never refuse it, and other people……

It has to be said that people in the circle now have a wonderful awe of Xiao Jiang, who can turn everything into gold. Whether it is their company's zero scandal, the status quo of the paparazzi black hole, or the rapid rise of the legend, they all realize that Jiang Hongfei is a very talented person. Terrible character, his luck is even better.

Because the development of Tianyu Media is so good, some people even think that he used some other means, such as hiring a Fengshui master, or even more evil, raising a kid or something, but no matter how much they asked, no one knew the company's internal affairs. News, or whether they have engaged in these activities of praying to God and worshiping Buddha.

These people could only watch Jiang Hongfei make crazy decisions one after another, and then their company's artists climbed up the rankings, and they were very angry.

Xin Haiyan, CEO of Huamao Media, is also paying close attention to Liu Pipa's performance. Although he is also surprised by the sales volume of 54 in the first week, he is not unacceptable. To be honest, after the first day, their company has A special team was set up to analyze the number of her results. At that time, they thought that the sales of "Pipa Xing" this week would be around 40. They did not expect that the overseas sales would catch up later, and the final results were much better than they imagined.

Xin Haiyan looked at the report, sighed, and said to herself that Tianyu Media is really a rival!

Although the scale of their company is still far behind that of Huamao Media, which is the leader in the flower planting country, and there are not enough investment projects, but in terms of market value, they have grown to the point where he has to look sideways.

He sighed again.

Then, Xin Haiyan's assistant knocked on the door and entered his office.

The assistant said: "Boss, you probably need to read this."

Xin Haiyan said: "What?" The assistant said: "It's Liu Pipa's song." He looked at Xin Haiyan's face and found that the boss didn't change his face because of his words, so he continued, "The title song in her small album " Overlord Disarmor" rushed to the bulletin board and oricon rankings at the same time."

Xin Haiyan's expression changed, he said: "Really?"

The assistant said: "Really, it ranks No. 6 on the neon-colored Oricon, and No. 10 on the Billboard." Even the assistant's eyes became a little complicated, and he said, "According to the current sales volume, it is estimated to rank No. [-] on the bulletin board." It can still go up.”

Not to mention Xin Haiyan, even Jiang Hongfei was dumbfounded when he heard the news.

He received the news almost at the same time as Xin Haiyan, and after hearing Zhou An'an say it several times, he was sure that he heard it right.

Jiang Hongfei said: ""The Overlord Disarms His Armor", isn't this an ancient song? You told me that it was even ranked on the bulletin board?"

Zhou Anan was a little speechless, she said: "Boss, "Pipa Xing" is a small album of ancient songs!"

The implication is that no matter which song hits the charts, it is a classical song with a rich flavor of Huaguo, and there is really no difference in essence.

Jiang Hongfei was still a little dumbfounded, he said: "Oh, oh!"

Could it be that the propaganda force he invested in the neon country market and the US market played a role?But if this is the case, the promotion of its effect is too fast. Under normal circumstances, there is at least a half-month buffer period in the middle.

Jiang Hongfei immediately rushed to the information department to check the sales. As a result, about two days ago, the album sales and single sales of Neon Country suddenly showed a blowout growth. Before that, the sales curve was obviously rising at a constant speed.

Jiang Hongfei thought, what is going on!

……

Fang Yuefan thought, what is going on!

In just a few days, she had a good experience in Neon China, what is a sales miracle.

In the beginning, the only people who listened to Liu Pipa's songs were flower growers like her, and some extreme fans who loved Kong Xuanai's life and death and bought whatever he recommended.

Japanese fans headed by Mizuhara Nami shared "Pipa Xing" with their friends. Afterwards, anyone who heard it was shocked. Is the music in Huahua Country so good?

They obviously couldn’t understand the lyrics, but they were attracted by the perfect a cappella, and the soundtrack of the song. The sound of playing the pipa was different from Japanese musical instruments, and it was far from the guitar and electronic music, but they didn’t know why. The sound of the traditional musical instruments of the country of planting flowers is well received.

Even if you ask passers-by who don't usually listen to music, you will get a "good" comment.

The few songs in the mini-album "Pipa Xing" are really nice to listen to, even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can understand the strong emotions in the songs.

There is also the photo of Liu Pipa on the cover of the album.

Cheongsam, red lips, thick black hair, obviously Liu Pipa has a delicate fairy appearance, but after putting on makeup, she becomes extremely glamorous.

The appearance is poignant, and the song is pleasant to cross the language barrier. After a few days, Fang Yuefan has heard Liu Pipa's name from more and more students from the Neon Country, and a vague concept has arisen in her heart. Liu Pipa, in the neon country, can't be said to be popular.

Just like Kong Xuan's popular routine.

She especially wanted to sigh, is it really a family?Whether it is Kong Xuan or Liu Pipa, they simply have the popularity gene.

Then Liu Pipa's name was listed on the Oricon Oricon. This is the first time in the past five years that a single by a Hua Guo singer has been on the Oricon. Fang Yuefan can swear that with this increase in sales, he will not be able to pass. In a few days, "Overlord Unloading Armor" might reach the top of the Oricon Ranking.

As a flower grower, she is a little proud!

The success of Liu Pipa has brought Tianyu Media a lot of liquidity, not only the funds from selling albums, but also the high-end endorsements that followed.

It was right for Bai Hongxiu to stick to Liu Pipa and not give her more endorsements. After her song reached the top of Oricon and No. [-] on Billboard, her net worth has been soaring all the way. Before that, there were only brands that were still on the sidelines. , have thrown olive branches to her.

Bai Hongxiu was still very calm, and didn't follow up all at once. After careful selection, she chose a mobile phone endorsement, two food endorsements, and one high-end cosmetics endorsement, and then returned to work. Liu Pipa took on several programs.

Now that she is on the rise in her career, she needs to participate in a few more music shows, then prepare to release new songs, and see if she can sprint for major music awards.

As for the famous singer's concert tour, it's still a bit early for Liu Pipa now. If she wants to hold a concert, she will at least release a complete album and release a few new songs. In terms of speed and creative quality, it may only take one to two years for her to reach the point of holding a concert.

Thinking of this, Bai Hongxiu couldn't help sighing, this starting point is really too high, she has been in the music world for so many years, and she has never seen anyone who can rise as fast as Liu Pipa.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is like a divine help.

If Liu Pipa knew what Bai Hongxiu was talking about, she would definitely show a mysterious smile.

Of course it is like a god, she is a god!And he is also a fairy who has become a master of musical instruments!

After Liu Pipa became popular, Jiang Hongfei fell into new thinking. So far, he has done a good job in his work. Every immortal who descended to earth became popular in the shortest possible time.

And after everyone's development is on the right track, he doesn't have to invest a lot of money like in the early stage. Now Jiang Hongfei is holding the funds in his hands, and it's a bit difficult. He is thinking, should his company also make an idol drama or something? , come to praise our artists?

But Jiang Hongfei just thought about it for a while, and then denied it. Not to mention that the few people in his company no longer need idol dramas to add icing on the cake. For a movie star like Yang Jian, making idol dramas is simply a drop in price!

He was thinking about it, and happened to see a piece of material. The content was that after Kong Xuan joined "Nuannuan Around the World", the sales of this game had greatly increased.

The small light bulb on Jiang Hongfei's forehead suddenly lit up, why not let his company expand into the game industry?

These days, after a star becomes popular, there are only a few things to do. One is to make movies, the other is to open a store, and the other is to become an independent producer, do animation and so on.

And mobile games are a new field that stars haven't tried to enter. At most, behemoth companies in this field are willing to try the water.

Jiang Hongfei was able to think of mobile games because of Kong Xuan's success in "Nannuan Around the World". In addition, since a few years ago, the two-dimensional idols of the Neon Kingdom have been very popular, and the loveliveTwo-dimensional idol project It was a great success.

Compared with making a movie, making a mobile game related to idols is more appealing to him.

Moreover, at the end of last year, they had done an industry assessment. If the company wanted to expand its business and increase its market influence, which industry would be more appropriate to set foot in.

In that evaluation report, the mobile game industry ranked third.

Now, Jiang Hongfei happened to have nothing to do, thinking about it, he actually started to entertain himself, opened the notebook he carried with him, and started to play delusional games.

Mobile games, wanting to make money, idols, the combination of these three factors, it must be a love game for women.

What kind of love game makes money, it must be the love game between Cinderella and the prince!

Jiang Hongfei thought about it, and his smile gradually became obscene. Well, according to the routine of Korean dramas, the heroine must be motivated but ordinary, so that most players can feel a sense of substitution, and the male protagonist, which was very popular in the past few years. "From the Stars You" is used as a reference, handsomeness is the first point, and then there must be personality, preferably not human, or have some other characteristics that are different from human beings.

He made a circle on the traits, and he didn't think of any traits, abilities, races, etc., which were too old-fashioned. Jiang Hongfei felt that he needed to innovate.

Then I was thinking about career.

First of all, there must be a president, and then there must be a star, and then, a gangster?

Jiang Hongfei frantically searched for the classic configurations of romance novels in his mind. He heard that little wolf dogs are popular now. How about adding an athlete with a good body?

He was thinking again, and then used this as a template to make idol games?In that case, should we create a virtual idol, or use the company's artists as the basic template to make character designs?Why don't we really add some realistic elements, for example, let Kong Xuan's subspecies top the stars in the game?

While he was fishing, the door of the office was suddenly opened. Kong Xuan walked into Jiang Hongfei with a serious face.

Jiang Hongfei looked up and saw Kong Xuan's expression, he was startled, he had never seen Kong Xuan like this before!

He was frightened by Kong Xuan's expression, and immediately said: "What's the matter?"

Kong Xuan walked up to Jiang Hongfei without saying a word, his eyes were very deep.

Jiang Hongfei swallowed with a groan, what happened?

Kong Xuan propped his hands on the big desk in front of Jiang Hongfei, without saying a word. After the director of the human research center returned to the heaven, the sky has undergone earth-shaking changes in a short period of time. Their scientific progress can be said to have passed Industrial Revolution.

And I don't know how that person did it. Now there are telephones between the heaven and the human world, although the number is very small, and only a few people can use it.

But who is Yuanfeng? He is the chairman of the heavenly government of the previous person, and the baby eggs he gave birth to have been in the human world for a while. Kong Xuan made a phone call.

The main content of the phone call was to tell him how the heavens had changed during this period of time, what happened, and to make him mentally prepared that the Demon King Combination was about to descend to the mortal world.

This matter has to start with Luo Yigu's return to the Heavenly Court.

In order to promote the entertainment industry in Tianting, he introduced two very popular entertainment facilities from the human world, that is, the ktv singing equipment and the evergreen dancing machine in the game hall.

The entertainment activities in the heavenly world are very scarce, they are nothing more than singing, dancing and reading novels. In fact, after living in the human world for a while, Luo Yigu thinks that the best entertainment is playing computer games and mobile games, but connecting the heavenly world with Wi- Fi is a huge project, not only to change the time difference between the heavenly world and the human world, but also to connect to the Internet, research transmitters, etc. A lot of work needs to be done. For them, changing the flow rate is quite simple, but the remaining work is a bit more difficult.

Moreover, Luo Yigu felt that if computer games and mobile games were introduced now, those gods in the heavens who had never felt the charm of games would definitely be addicted to the online world and would not even do their jobs. Considering the above factors, He ended up not being brought in yet.

However, what he didn't expect was that even though Luo Yigu only introduced ktv and dance machines, the gods in the heavens were still very addicted, and even fought violently because of the lack of machines.

Recalling this, Kong Xuan's expression became even more serious.

Although he is No.1 under the saint, he has to admit that there are many weaker but very difficult opponents in the heavens, such as fighting against Buddha or something, the original body is a monkey jumping out of the cracks in the rocks , but he was unexpectedly able to fight, and his rank of conferred gods was much higher than that of ordinary gods, so he became a Buddha directly, and he was also a Buddha named after fighting.

And the other monkeys who are as famous as him also have their own advantages. It is because of their existence that most of the gods in the heaven respect the monkeys.

Yuanfeng told him on the phone just now that these four monkeys formed a gang, and after the ktv and dance machines went online, they brought their monkeys' active and expressive instincts to the extreme, occupying the machines every day. The position, life and death did not let go, and made the rest of the heavens complain.

Yuanfeng reminded him very solemnly that if the situation didn't improve, they would definitely be sent to the human world by Di Jun and others who couldn't occupy the KTV position and became very angry, and let them sing ktv and play dance machines every day in the human world , instead of harming them in the heavenly realm.

Considering the flow rate of the human world, Di Jun's endurance, and the ability of the four monkeys to do things, they will definitely descend to the mortal world after a year at most.

Kong Xuan said that of course he was not afraid of the four-monkey combination at all, but he felt a headache when he thought of the four monkey spirits jumping up and down in the sky, or even walking side by side on the road.

Monkey, jumping up and down, really no one can subdue it.

Kong Xuan lowered his head, looked at Jiang Hongfei who was staring at him fearfully, and thought, hey, what if he can't accept such bad news to tell him!

He thought, why don't he say it in a more euphemistic way?Let Jiang Hongfei figure it out on his own?

Kong Xuan's eyes kept wandering. He was thinking about how to tell Jiang Hongfei, but he didn't know what he did. His eyes turned to Jiang Hongfei's notebook.

Now the notebook is being spread out carelessly, and the peacock can see what is written in the notebook after turning its neck 45 degrees.

Love game, four protagonists, character design, characteristics...

Kong Xuan raised his brows, and the light bulb on his head turned on for some reason. If it was really what he thought, there was a wonderful idea in front of him now.

Kong Xuandao: "What is this?" He pointed to the open notebook.

Jiang Hongfei's thinking speed really couldn't keep up with Kong Xuan's thinking speed, he said in a daze, "Huh?"

It was rare for Kong Xuan to be so patient, he asked again: "What is this?"

Jiang Hongfei didn't understand why Kong Xuan asked this suddenly, but he still replied honestly: "This is an idea about mobile games."

Kong Xuan lifted his chin, meaning to let him continue.

Then Jiang Hongfei told Kong Xuan what he was thinking just now.

Kong Xuan said after listening: "This is a good idea, let's do it!"

Jiang Hongfei:? ? ?

Kong Xuandao: "Don't you want four male protagonists? Give me the character design and original painting, they must be handsome, and you are satisfied."

Jiang Hongfei: "Wait, wait!" No matter what he thought, it came out as soon as he came out. He said just now that this was a conception, so why did it suddenly get involved in the original painting.

Kong Xuan said fiercely: "Why, are you dissatisfied with my arrangement?"

Jiang Hongfei was not afraid of the ferocious peacock at all, but the first question he thought of was also quite strange. Jiang Hongfei looked at Kong Xuan and said, "Master, can you draw?"

Kong Xuandao: "Of course!"

Jiang Hongfei explained carefully: "But even if you can draw, it doesn't mean that the character set you made can be used. Moreover, this project is just a random idea of ​​mine. It is not certain whether the company can pass it."

Kong Xuandao: "Then I will draw first, and you will establish a project in the company. After the project is completed, you can tell me what is wrong with the character design."

He said, "That's it."

Then he walked away.

Only Jiang Hongfei was left dumbfounded in the office, my god, what on earth are you here for?

……

Under Kong Xuan's frantic urging, Tianyu Media held a meeting about whether to get involved in the development of mobile games. It was similar to Jiang Hongfei's guess. After he expressed his concept, all the senior management of the company thought this project was very interesting. , and there is room for investment.

The top executives of Tianyu Media are all young people, and they are all young people who are familiar with trend culture. After doing so many projects, they are very clear that the story of the prince and Cinderella is very marketable. In this era, cool male protagonists are still very popular, and love games are very money-making.

If it is without the participation of our company's artists, they are more interested in investing in mobile games than investing in movies.

Huang Ziming said directly: "This is much more marketable than making movies." But he paused and continued, "However, for us, this is also a field that we have never touched before."

Zhou Anan also said: "You can try."

Other high-level executives also expressed their opinions one by one, probably because the employees of their companies are very young, they are more innovative in their work than established companies, and they love to try across fields.

This project, which sounds unbelievable, was actually accepted, and the employees were very serious about it.

Zhou An'an said: "However, if you really want to make a mobile game, the production of the game..."

Jiang Hongfei said: "This is what I think. If the project is confirmed, we can find a game company to complete this game. We are responsible for setting the plot, finding the original artist, and all the software work, and the hardware work is the game. If you want to make it, let the professionals do it.”

But this will prevent them from fully intervening in the game production process and keeping an eye on them all the time. In a sense, it is inconvenient.

Jiang Hongfei said: "Alternatively, we can acquire a mobile game company, but in this case, the income and expenditure may not be balanced."

After 2013, mobile game companies have become increasingly popular in China, and many large companies that want to expand their business or transform have begun to focus on the mobile game industry and make drastic acquisitions.

Most of them did not have the concept of mobile games before the acquisition. These companies just know that mobile games are very profitable and will become mainstream products in the future. If they want to make money and transform, they must occupy the market in advance , As for whether the game development is good or not, that is after the acquisition.

Tianyu Media has only been established for a year, and there are not many artists under it. Logically speaking, they should not be in a hurry to expand the industry and transform. At this time, the normal company's approach should be to find new people and train them to become stars. However, Tianyu The particularity of the media made Jiang Hongfei not consider doing this.

He made a fortune before. With their company's value, it is a trivial matter to acquire a mobile game company that is okay. What stops him now is to spend a lot of money for his own idea of ​​a mobile game Buying a company is worth it.

The crowd fell into contemplation.

Zhou Anan thought for a while and said, "Listen to your boss, is there another way?"

To tell the truth, neither finding an outsourcing company nor purchasing can satisfy her. The former is too perfunctory, while the latter is too expensive.

Jiang Hongfei said: "Yes."

He said: "The last method is that we form a team to make games by ourselves."
