China Entertainment’s Born Protagonist

Chapter 332 Multifaceted Life
At Warner Music's Los Angeles branch, Steve was very excited and busy all morning. He analyzed Zhang Nanyi's popularity data and held a meeting with the channel sales department to reorganize the sales process and ensure that there were no problems.

In two days, on May 5th, Zhang Nanyi's new album "We Are Young" will be released simultaneously in 12 countries and regions around the world.

Judging from the current feedback data, this album has attracted a lot of attention. Warner Music has also listened to the album's songs internally, and everyone has given the highest level of praise to the quality of the album.

With good works, good publicity, and the popularity Zhang Nanyi has aroused in the OMI circle during this period, Stephen judged that the album "We Are Young" will definitely have eye-popping sales, and setting a record is not impossible.

Zhang Nanyi's popularity and basic base in Asia are very stable. Although it is an English album, the sales volume of "We Are Young" in Asia will definitely not be bad.

Originally, Zhang Nanyi's popularity was slightly weaker on OMI, but with the popularity brought by the Ellen Show and one-to-many scandals, Zhang Nanyi's attention has broken through and became completely popular.

With OMI and Asia added up, it is extremely likely that the album will sell out.

So Stephen was in a good mood, as he seemed to see the high performance bonus waving to him.

During lunch, Stephen was still in an excited mood, and the smile on his face never stopped.

Even deputy Tracy walked into his office without knocking, and Stephen didn't pay attention.

Tracey said: "The discussion about Zhang on the Internet was very lively. At first, it was mostly praise and positive, and then many people began to laugh at him for being a soft-hearted person. Just now, the Hearst sisters posted a new update on Facebook, and public opinion began to support him again. I’m nervous.”

Stephen shook his head and said: "What we want is attention, as long as people are willing to spend money to buy the album.

As for Zhang's final image, it has nothing to do with us. "

Zhang Nanyi and Warner Music only have a cooperative relationship. Warner wants album sales and profits. As for Zhang Nanyi's image, Steve doesn't care, unless Zhang Nanyi's image is too bad and affects album sales.

Tracy nodded to show that she knew. She took out a magazine and put it on her desk: "This is the Time magazine that just came out today. It is an exclusive interview with Zhang. You can read it when you have time."

After saying that, Tracy left the office.

Steve quickly ate the sandwich in his hand and took the Time magazine.

The cover is very interesting, it is a colorful multi-faceted prism.

In the middle of the prism is Zhang Nanyi, wearing formal clothes and sitting on the boss's chair.Then in other scenes, there are Zhang Nanyi who is writing fast at his desk, Zhang Nanyi who is wearing ancient costumes, Zhang Nanyi who is singing with a microphone, Zhang Nanyi who is working in the recording studio, etc.

These photos are displayed in the form of prisms, representing Zhang Nanyi's different identities: entrepreneur, screenwriter, actor, singer and producer.

The huge title on the cover is "ZHANG", and the subtitle below is, Multifaceted Life.

Stephen stared at the cover for a while and had to admit that the cover of Time Magazine was very cool. Paired with Zhang Nanyi's superb appearance, people would be attracted to the cover and couldn't help but stare at it. I want to know what's in the magazine.

Open the magazine, and on the first page is the editor's preface.

"As early as two years ago, we noticed Zhang. He set off a star-chasing craze in China and even Asia. He is a veritable king of Asia.

Now it seems that he is ascending to the throne of a world-class king step by step.

Today, we will learn more about Zhang from a foreigner's perspective.

Although Zhang has many identities, most Americans first knew Zhang from the song "You are beautiful". Yes, in our first recognition, Zhang was a singer... "

Next up is the second page, titled "Singer."

The magazine began to introduce in detail Zhang Nanyi's development in the field of singer, from the first song "Secret Fragrance" to Jiangnan, and episodes such as "Love After Life" and "Fairy Sword", telling the story of Zhang Nanyi's career as a singer starting from the theme song of the TV series. Later, the success of the first Mandarin album in the Chinese-speaking region, the explosion of the album in Japan, and then the English songs dominating the charts in the United States.

The narrative of the text is also interspersed with photos of Zhang Nanyi singing on various occasions, to prove the authenticity of the text and to enhance the reading experience.

Subsequently, the magazine introduced Zhang Nanyi's other identities page by page, including screenwriter, actor, and producer.

Seeing this, Stephen couldn't help but wonder whether Zhang Nanyi had stuffed money into Time Magazine. The introduction and description of these words seemed to be full of praise.

In fact, there is no such thing at all. Time magazine only objectively described Zhang Nanyi's many achievements, which easily gave people the illusion that they were paid to help Zhang Nanyi brag.

At the end of the multi-faceted identity introduction, Zhang Nanyi’s final identity is told, as an entrepreneur and investor.

The introduction of this identity is the most detailed, with a total of four pages, introducing the companies Zhang Nanyi founded in China, including YY Communications, Xiaonei.com, online games, Daju.com, etc., as well as some of his investment behaviors in the United States. .

Stephen has been in charge of business in the United States and does not know much about China. He has no idea about the power of companies such as YY and Xiaonei.com. He is just shocked by the figures in the reports, which can reach hundreds of millions of dollars.

But here in the United States, Zhang Nanyi is the co-founder of Facebook. He invested in MySpace and then sold it to News Corporation, making a huge profit of 1.5 million yuan.

And then invested heavily in YouTube.

These are all star products in the American Internet industry today, and Stephen is also one of the users.

Only then did he truly feel how powerful Zhang Nanyi was.

Moreover, Time Magazine’s final destination was very simple and crude.

They conducted a simple horizontal comparative valuation, calculated the market value of Zhang Nanyi's enterprises, and came to the conclusion that Zhang Nanyi's net worth was conservatively estimated at more than 30 billion yuan. "There is no doubt that Zhang, who is only 23 years old, is the youngest person on the world's richest list.

Unfortunately, Forbes seems to have omitted this self-made young man from the list released in March.

Next, we will conduct an in-depth interview with this young man with multiple identities from a unique perspective.

You'd better make a cup of coffee, stay in a quiet environment, and experience the legendary experience of a genius with your heart. "

Seeing this, Stephen took a deep breath and was shocked.

This issue of Time Magazine devotes a full ten pages to introducing Zhang Nanyi, paving the way for the following interview.

Even the leaders of many countries may not receive this kind of treatment.

But Stephen also had to admit that Zhang Nanyi’s experience was worthy of Time Magazine doing this for him.

Because Stephen, as a well-informed white elite, felt unbelievable after reading these introductions. It was so legendary.

Stephen is a master of marketing and publicity, and he is extremely certain that the sales of this issue of Time Magazine will definitely hit a new high.

He took a sip of coffee, calmed down, and began to read the subsequent interviews to fully understand Zhang Nanyi's story and life.

About half an hour later, Stephen breathed a sigh of relief and finished reading the long interview.

In the end, Time Magazine was correct in carrying out the rectification of the United States. They classified Zhang Nanyi's success as part of the American dream.

Because Zhang Nanyi made his first pot of gold by investing in Migu.com.

In the parlance of the times, although Zhang Nanyi is Chinese, he is deeply influenced by American culture, so he can achieve success. Zhang Nanyi's success is also a model of the American dream.

Stephen thought for a moment and immediately called his assistant Tracy over. He said, "I'm going to have a short meeting and arrange two more publicity strategies.

In addition, Zhang's album needs more stock in the United States. Please arrange to bring another batch of goods from Asian manufacturers! "

Not only Stephen, but also many Americans were shocked by Time Magazine.

That afternoon, some screenshots of the report in this issue of Time Magazine were posted online.

Topics such as "Zhang's net worth exceeds 30 billion yuan" and "Zhang, the youngest person on the rich list" instantly became the hottest topics on the English Internet.

In an American society where money is paramount, Zhang Nanyi's story of entrepreneurship and wealth is more in line with the preferences of Americans than the songs and scandals he sings.

In particular, Time Magazine labeled Zhang Nanyi an American dream.

Discussions on the Internet are already abuzz.

"I just finished reading this issue of Time Magazine. Zhang's experience is so legendary. It only took him three years to grow from a poor country boy to a super rich man with a net worth of billions. It's amazing!

"Zhang is a role model that young people in the United States should learn from. His experience inspired me. From then on, Zhang has been my idol!"

"I don't care whether Zhang has money or not. I just want to say that the photo he took in Time Magazine is so handsome. He is absolutely a multi-faceted handsome guy! I want to marry him and become one of his objects. It is definitely not for money!"

"Those who say that Zhang is being kept by a socialite and that he is with the Hearst sisters for money, they can shut up this time. Zhang is a super rich man. It is not certain who keeps who?"

"Some people always regard celebrities as fools. Would ordinary people like them? They would rather share it with other women than leave. Obviously Zhang has conquered these celebrities in all aspects."

"I'm from China, and Zhang Nanyi was on the rich list of China last year. It turns out that so many people abroad don't know his status as a rich man."

"Brothers, this issue of Time Magazine has been sold out. Is there anyone who doesn't want it after reading it? I'm willing to pay double the price for it."

"I won't sell it. I want to collect this issue of Time. This is the best issue I have ever seen introducing characters in Time."

"If we can't buy magazines, we can buy albums. Zhang Nanyi's new album will go on sale the day after tomorrow. Think about it, this is a super rich man, singing to us."

The last sentence was said by the publicity personnel arranged by Warner.

After seeing the interview in Time Magazine, Stephen knew that Zhang Nanyi would definitely become more popular and would even become a figure of national concern and discussion in the United States.

Because Americans are so passionate about wealth and the American dream.

In three years, a poor boy became a billionaire through investment and entrepreneurship, achieving the American dream.

Americans never tire of hearing this kind of story.

Warner's new publicity strategy is to strive to mention Zhang Nanyi's new album in this discussion, striving to make everyone pay attention to Zhang Nanyi's album as well.
