Chapter 46 The Frontal Hardship with the Mainland Queen
Beijing, a villa

Ding Xiaowen, the producer of "Conquest", Sun Vice President of EMI Records, and Naying sat on the sofa with her sister and manager Na Xin, watching the MV for "Dusk" played on CCTV Music Channel on TV.

Zeng Li in a long red dress is amazingly beautiful in the camera.

The performance was also very good. She broke up with Cao Xuan with a resolute expression. The moment she turned around, there were tears running down her cheeks.

"I still remember the sad tears that fell from your eyes

There is an illusion of hot tears burning in the chaos
horizon at dusk
cut off happiness
love has faded
......"

Accompanied by Cao Xuan's singing, Zeng Li and Cao Xuan's various fancy dynamic photos show their looks, handsome men and beautiful women, so eye-catching.

But Naying and the others did not feel any joy in their hearts.

After "Twilight" became popular, it quickly posed a great threat to "Conquest".

The two songs are like last year's "Too Soft Heart" and "1 Reasons". You compete for each other and compete fiercely in the major charts.

In particular, "Dusk" also has a top five "Angel Wings", and the two songs feed back and drive each other.

The early advantages of "Conquer" have now been gradually wiped out by "Twilight", and the situation of "Conquer"'s dominance has been divided into five or five.

"Is there something wrong with this Cao Xuan? There will be more than half a year in the future. If you want to squeeze with us, it will hurt others and not yourself."

Vice President Sun was very unhappy. EMI Records invested a lot of money in "Conquer".

Not to mention the cost of signing Na Young from [Fumo Records], the cost of album production and recording promotion alone is several million.

Investing so much energy and money, let alone losing money, is a big problem if it fails to achieve the expected profit.

Maybe he, the specifically responsible vice president, will have to take the blame, and there is no hurry to change.

"He doesn't necessarily mean it, Cao Xuan has been preparing a new album, and it is said that it is scheduled to be released in April or May."

Cao Xuan is also a well-known singer, and they are all in the same circle. He did not deliberately hide it, and it is not difficult for others to find out some rumors.

Na Xin is mainly responsible for her sister's work in the Mainland. She also knew that Cao Xuan would release a new album before, but she didn't care.

After all, Naying is a dignified mainland queen, and Cao Xuan said that the unpleasant thing is that she is a newcomer who has just been popular for half a year.

The qualifications, fame, and status of the two are too far apart, and no one would think that Cao Xuan could pose a threat to Naying's new album.

However, I don't want some newcomers to be so unreasonable.

"Do you want to delay the release of the album?"

Ding Xiaowen came up with an idea, and now "Dusk" and "Angel's Wings" have sprung up and grabbed a lot of popularity, which is bound to affect the album sales of "Conquer".

"It can't be delayed."

Naying and Vice President Sun said in unison.

Vice President Sun considered the business and settled the account with his fingers: "The previous publicity has already cost hundreds of millions, and the goods have been rolled out. If it is delayed, what will happen to the loss."

Naying didn't think about it so much, she just felt that if she postponed the release of the album now, she would be afraid of Cao Xuan and how she would get along in the circle in the future.

Na Xin also felt that she could not delay, and her reason was very simple.

"Although "Conquer" has not suppressed "Twilight" now, its popularity is not bad, and it firmly maintains the top two.

If the release is delayed, who can guarantee to maintain this popularity, and then use other songs to build momentum, and the quality and popularity of "Conquer" are difficult to compare.

Even if it is comparable, all good songs are promoted in advance, so whoever buys albums, pirated copies are not vegetarians. "

Only then did Ding Xiaowen realize that it was easy, got up and walked around the living room a few times, giving her a high five.

"Then go hard with "Twilight", tie it together to hype, first make the heat up, and then wait for the album to be released, other songs will hit the charts one after another, and "Twilight" will be encircled and suppressed together."

"Yes, quality is not dominant, we will win by quantity."

Vice President Sun has a look of wisdom in his hand: "The album "Conquer" is made by famous artists and is of first-class standard. A good song in stock, reserved for selling albums.

At that time, we will surround and suppress "Twilight", try to occupy the list as much as possible, and then spend money to find some media to increase the popularity. Even if Cao Xuan relies on "Twilight" to make a small fire, the big money is still ours. "

After listening to the two of them, Naying also felt that the idea was good, and nodded in agreement with satisfaction: "Ten songs versus three, I have the advantage."

.........

Naying's network is not covered. As soon as they make a move, the double-power competition of "Twilight" and "Conquer" has become a new focus of the music scene in April.

The popularity of the two songs has soared. Although "Conquest" has achieved its purpose, "Dusk" has also benefited a lot.

At the same time, it also raised Cao Xuan's coffee position invisibly.

Last year, he fought with Ren Xianqi, the little king of Taiwan Province, for a few months, and now he is in an inseparable battle with Naying, the queen of the mainland.

And the works are excellent, the output is stable, and it has been at the forefront of the major rankings for a long time.

Cao Xuan is more and more recognized by fans and the industry, and he began to gradually wash away his identity as a newcomer, and slowly evolved into a famous first-line singer with works.

And just when Cao Xuan entered the front line, Naying's "Conquer" album also began to be released.

With the current trend, "Conquer" is no surprise, selling 30 copies in just two weeks, and Naying's position as a mainland queen has become more and more stable.

At the same time, the encirclement plan formulated by Ding Xiaowen was successfully implemented.

The four songs "Conquest", "Meet [-]", "No matter how bitter" and "Wake up from a dream" have reached the top ten of major music charts.

The four songs help each other and feed each other back, and then directly suppress "Dusk" and "Angel's Wings" by taking advantage of the popularity of the album "Conquer".

"Twilight" is very popular, and it can still support it and keep the top three portals.

A little less "Angel's Wings" is a little troublesome, and it is almost squeezed out of the top ten.

The two powers competed, and in the blink of an eye, they returned to the situation of "Conquer" domination.

The media regretted this result. After all, Cao Xuan's background is too shallow. It's okay to break out in a short period of time.

Naying and EMI are very satisfied, as long as the song's current popularity is maintained, the rest is to watch the album sales soar...

Everyone thinks that Cao Xuan is over, only Cao Xuan and Warner don't think so.

On May 1998, 5, Cao Xuan's first album "The Stars" was officially released.

Soon after, seven more songs were added to the major music charts.

One of them is a song called "Fairy Tale". As soon as it was on the list, it rushed to the list with an irresistible trend.

No.17!

No.11!
No.9!
No.5!
No.2!
Climb to the top!

"Conquer" did not hold the top position for a week, and it was strongly lifted by "Fairy Tale".

The next day, the popularity of "Twilight", which was driven by "Fairy Tale", rose sharply, surpassing "Conquer" and ranked second.

On the same day, "Run" ranked fifth on the list, "Angel's Wings" ranked seventh, "Autumn Don't Come Back" was the tenth goalkeeper, and Naying's "Wake Up" was pushed to the twelfth.

Four-on-two, instantly became three-on-five.

Outside the top ten of the list, Cao Xuan's other five songs did not pull his hips, and they were basically in the 10th to 30th place, which was similar to the other songs of the "Conquer" album, or even slightly exceeded.

At the beginning, he vowed to encircle and suppress Cao Xuan, but now he has been beaten by others.

Na Tianhou's face turned green......
