Entertainment from Divorce

Chapter 1329 Extra Chapter (Twenty-four)

Beijing, Bright Entertainment Company.

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed like sand in the hand, slipping away silently.

Now, two months have passed since the album was released. The season has entered early autumn, and the summer heat is gone. The trees next to the company seem to have sensed the call and started to change their clothes. The fallen leaves also fell on the clean and tidy road, and the whole atmosphere slowly changed from dark green to golden yellow.

As usual, Tan Yue walked into the company building calmly and smiled back at the employees and colleagues who greeted him enthusiastically. Then, under everyone's admiring gaze, he walked into the elevator and went to the top floor.

As soon as I arrived at the top floor, I saw Chen Ziyu's secretary busy organizing the documents to be reviewed in the morning. When she saw Tan Yue coming out of the elevator, she quickly greeted Tan Yue, and Tan Yue responded immediately.

He walked to the door of his office and pushed it gently. The door was opened from the inside. Chen Ye, who had just finished cleaning with cleaning tools, was coming out when he bumped into Tan Yue who had just arrived.

"Morning, Mr. Tan."

Tan Yue smiled and nodded gently, then said:

"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoye."

Then Tan Yue walked into the office, while Chen Ye quickened his pace, put the sanitary tools into the storage room, and then ran to his workstation to deliver the sorted documents to Tan Yue.

Tan Yue came to the desk and saw that it was very clean. The pen holder and folders on the desk were neatly stacked.

As soon as Tan Yue sat down in the boss chair and turned on the computer, Chen Ye brought in the documents to be processed this morning and placed them on Tan Yue's desk.

Tan Yue glanced at the documents. Fortunately, there was not a lot to deal with this morning, and it should be done in about an hour.

Taking out the official pen used for approving documents from the pen holder, Tan Yue flipped through the pile of documents in front of him and began to process them.

In the middle, Chen Ye came to bring coffee once, but seeing that Tan Yue was processing documents seriously, he did not disturb him too much.

An hour passed quickly, and Tan Yue finally finished processing all the documents. He looked at the clock hanging on the wall, which showed that the time was already 9:20.

Tan Yue stood up and stretched, then called Chen Ye over and sent the processed documents back to various departments.

After Chen Ye left, Tan Yue picked up the water cup on the table and slowly walked to the balcony.

Sitting on the rattan chair on the balcony, Tan Yue held a glass of water in his hand and looked out the window with deep eyes.

The mountains in the distance have also changed color. Compared with the lush greenery in summer, they are now slightly more earthy yellow.

Autumn has arrived. It is said that autumn is a season of harvest, and Tan Yue thinks so too.

Yes, after two months of unremitting publicity by the public relations department, coupled with the help of bigwigs in the entertainment industry to promote it, and the quality of Tan Yue’s album itself being strong enough, the sales of Morning Star’s album also reached a historical high.

Although Tan Yue still didn't know how many copies of the album had been sold in the past two months, he hadn't asked about it. Instead, he handed the album to Wu Gong and Wei Yu, letting them work on it without interfering too much in their work.

But judging from the news in the past two months, the sales volume should still be quite impressive. Tan Yue thought to himself that it was worth all the hard work he put into practicing the song in the recording studio.

After watching for about ten minutes, Tan Yue withdrew his gaze from the window, looked back at the time, it was almost nine fifty, so he ended his break and turned back to the office.

Tan Yue turned on his computer and searched for comments on the album online. This is also Tan Yue’s favorite thing to do every day. He can understand the comments of netizens and fans on his album. At the same time, if there are any shortcomings and deficiencies, he can discover them early and correct them in time.

At this time, Chen Ye came in and said softly to Tan Yue:

"Mr. Tan, Mr. Wu and Mr. Wei are here."

When Tan Yue heard this, he felt that he was the one being approached to report on the album. Although he would not be involved in the specific matters of album sales, he still had to keep track of the progress and situation and report it.

"Well, let them both come in."

Tan Yue said, then walked towards the sofa.

On this side, after receiving Chen Ye's notice, Engineer Wu and Wei Yu immediately ended their chat outside and walked towards Tan Yue's office one after the other.

As soon as they entered the room, they saw Tan Yue already sitting on the sofa waiting for them, so they sat down directly on the sofa opposite Tan Yue.

Tan Yue said directly:

"Let's not beat around the bush. Tell me, how is the album going this month?"

  Both of them pushed each other to give the opportunity to speak first. Finally, under Tan Yue's gaze, Wu adjusted his tie and said:

"Mr. Tan, let me first talk about the promotion of this month's album."

Seeing Tan Yue nodded, Wu Gong continued:

"This month's overall promotional plan remains the same as last month, but we have made some changes in several aspects."

"First, we put the focus of promotion offline. We asked each branch in the lower regions to invite local well-known artists to perform the album songs live."

"In addition, we have set up a prize-winning survey for album reviews online, and will give a certain amount of money to those who have good and profound reviews."

Hearing the measures mentioned by Mr. Wu, Tan Yue nodded in appreciation. He had also seen these measures online recently. They were very well done and the feedback from netizens and fans was very good.

Then he turned his gaze to Wei Yu, who hurriedly sorted out the documents in his hand and said:

"Mr. Tan, let me tell you about this month's album sales. This month's sales have dropped a bit compared to last month. Mr. Tan, as you know, albums mainly rely on their popularity in the first month, and will decline in the second month."

"This month, the album sold 2.67 million copies, less than half of last month."

Tan Yue nodded. Yes, the album mainly relies on the first month. As the popularity decreases, its sales will decline. But fortunately, more than 2.6 million this month is not bad and has already met Tan Yue’s expectations.

  Wei Yu continued:

"But, Mr. Tan, I have something good to tell you."

When Tan Yue heard the good news, his brows jumped.

"In the past two months, we have sold a total of 8.27 million copies. Mr. Tan, our album is the number one this year, far exceeding the second place, with more than 5.4 million copies sold than them."

  Hearing the first place, Tan Yue was also very happy, but the happy expression only flashed by, and then he said:

"It's too early to say. There are still three months until the end of this year. What if someone releases an album with better sales?"

"But your work is still worthy of recognition. The sales of Morning Star albums can reach the current level, which is inseparable from your efforts. Thank you for your hard work."

Both Wu Gong and Wei Yu became humble and politely said that it was the other's credit.

"Okay, stop pushing it away, both of you."

Tan Yue looked at the two people pushing each other and said with a smile.

Not long after, the two people left Tan Yue's office.

…………

An hour later, the Beijing Daily published the news with the authorization of Brilliant Entertainment Company.

"Morning Star album ranks first in sales, with over 8 million copies sold in two months." Beijing Daily is a large global newspaper and magazine media. Under its leadership, in less than half an hour, media outlets across China reported the news simultaneously.

Immediately, netizens and fans were shocked because the number was too shocking, selling more than 8 million copies in two months, this could be called a miracle in the history of new singers.

A new wave has been set off again on major social media platforms. On Weibo, netizens and Tan Yue’s fans are discussing it.

"Selling more than eight million copies in two months is definitely a miracle for a new artist."

"I have a feeling that the future of the Chinese music scene will definitely be dominated by Mr. Tan Yue."

“I don’t know what those veteran singers will think.”

…………

While the internet was in an uproar over this incident, in the office of the vice president of Brilliant Entertainment, Tan Yue, the person involved, was sitting in front of his computer, smiling as he read the comments of netizens.

For those veteran singers, his sudden emergence will definitely have a significant impact on their careers. It is estimated that they will continue to target him on the Internet in the future, but Tan Yue doesn't care. When the enemy comes, we will fight back; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. He will use whatever tricks he has.

At this time, the office door was pushed open and a figure walked in cautiously.

This person was Xu Nuo, the deputy director of the program department of Brilliant Entertainment Company. Xu Nuo walked to Tan Yue's desk with a smile on his face and sat down on the sofa opposite Tan Yue very naturally.

  Tan Yue looked up at Xu Nuo, and Xu Nuo said:

"Mr. Tan, I heard your album is number one in sales. Let's have a couple of drinks tonight to celebrate."

"Besides, we haven't had a drink together for a long time. I've already booked a place for tonight. Let's go straight there after get off work."

When Tan Yue heard that he was coming to drink again, he sneered and said:

"Still drinking? Last time you were drunk earlier than me. I was fine, but you almost passed out."

"Wasn't that an exception last time? He was in a bad state."

Xu Nuo scratched his head and said embarrassedly about being exposed.

"Let's do it another day. I have some things to do when I get home tonight, so I can't drink."

"Wait a couple of days. When I'm free, I'll treat you to some of my treasured wine."

Tan Yue said that he was not lying and that there was indeed something going on when he returned home that night.

Xu Nuo was like a deflated ball. He sighed and said:

"Alright alright."

The two chatted for a while, and soon Xu Nuo left Tan Yue's office.

…………

Tan Yue looked at the time on his watch. It was only two minutes until five o'clock.

Tan Yue turned off the computer, tidied up the desk, then stood up from the desk, walked to the clothes rack, picked up his black casual suit jacket and put it on.

Then he looked at the desk and found that he had not taken the car keys. He returned to the desk to get the car keys and then left the office.

I walked to the company basement, opened the car door, started the engine, and drove home.

……

When Tan Yue returned to his home, he found that Chen Ziyu's car was parked in front of the villa.

After opening the door of the villa and putting the car keys back into the storage box, Tan Yue went straight to the kitchen.

Sure enough, in the kitchen, a graceful figure was dancing.

Tan Yue quietly came to the kitchen door and watched Chen Ziyu's cooking skills.

Chen Ziyu wore a white low-necked T-shirt on the upper body, light blue jeans on the lower body, and a pink cartoon apron around her chest, which made her look like a housewife.

When Chen Ziyu turned around to get the seasoning, he saw Tan Yue standing at the door, smiled and said:

"Ayue, you're back."

"Go wash your hands first and take a rest. The food will be ready soon."

Tan Yue nodded, then walked to the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and gently scrubbed his hands.

In a short while, Chen Ziyu had prepared the meal and the first dish had been served on the table in the restaurant. Tan Yue also went to help. After two trips back and forth, eight dishes were neatly placed on the table.

Six dishes, one soup, and a staple food.

Tan Yue came to the dining table and sat down, and Chen Ziyu took out a bottle of red wine from her bag.

"This is a French red wine given to me by a friend. I have been keeping it as a treasure and have never been willing to drink it."

  Chen Ziyu said, then took out two red wine glasses, poured a little into each, and placed one of them in front of Tan Yue. Then he raised the glass in his hand, looked at Tan Yue, and said:

"Ayue, come on, let's drink to the great success of your album."

Tan Yue also picked up the wine glass, said "Cheers", and drank it all in one gulp.

  Chen Ziyu pointed at the steak in front of Tan Yue and said:

"Ayue, you should try this steak. I have been learning how to cook it from a French chef for over a month."

  Tan Yue said in surprise:

"Oh, really? I have to try it then."

  After cutting off a small piece with a knife, he picked up the fork and slowly put it into his mouth, savoring the taste of the steak. Uh. How should I put it? It was a bit dry, but he couldn't refuse Chen Ziyu's kindness, so Tan Yue had to say:

"Yeah, not bad, very tough."

Hearing Tan Yue's comments, Chen Ziyu's face was filled with a happy smile.

Then he said:

"I really didn't expect that. I just mentioned it casually at the beginning, but I didn't expect that you, Yue, actually did it. The Morning Star album has sold more than 8 million copies in two months, ranking first in the same category."

"You have contributed a lot to this. If you hadn't come up with this idea, I wouldn't have thought of releasing an album. And you also came up with the name Morning Star."

Tan Yue said, then picked up the glass and drank another glass with Chen Ziyu.

After all this, the meal lasted about an hour and a half. After the meal, both Tan Yue and Chen Ziyu were a little tipsy.

It was getting late, Tan Yue was cleaning the table, and Chen Ziyu was preparing to go back to his room on the second floor.

After cleaning up, Tan Yue saw Chen Ziyu staggering on the stairs. He shook his head, quickly chased after him, and helped Chen Ziyu back to the bedroom. After settling Chen Ziyu down, Tan Yue also returned to his room on the fifth floor.
