China Entertainment 2000

At 09:08 am on June 6, 2001, in the imperial capital, Zhou Yi's new album "Jiangnan" press conference was held.

There was still an hour left before the official start of the press conference. Looking at the crowd of media reporters carrying long guns and short guns, they were already in place, with identification tags issued to them by Warner in advance hanging around their necks. , which states their company and unit.

During the conversation, the topic could not escape the man who had set off the "rule of law" trend nationwide in the past week - Zhou Yi.

The debut time is less than a year, but he has done something that countless entertainers in the entertainment industry have wanted to do in the past 20 or 30 years but have never been able to do it.

Regardless of whether Zhou Yi's operation was done by Warner for publicity, at the very least, this courage is really worthy of the surprise and admiration of all people in the industry.

Of course, more people are still not optimistic.

A nineteen-year-old boy, whether he is young and impulsive or overestimates his abilities, is understandable to the public at his age.

To use what Yang Shoucheng, the boss of Emperor Hong Kong, said in an interview before, I want to be 19 years old and achieve Zhou Yi's results. I can be even crazier than him.

"As Zhou Yi himself said, if young people are not energetic, can they still be called young people?

"Whether it's our Tingfeng or Zhou Yi, they all dare to say no to paparazzi and rumors. This is exactly where the spirit of young people in the new century lies..."

Although I also don't understand why Warner is so crazy that he is willing to accompany Zhou Yi to be so tough on the media, this does not prevent Yang Shoucheng from bragging.

After all, Xie Tingfeng is also an unruly master in front of the media, especially when facing paparazzi.

However, under the suppression of the Emperor, Xie Tingfeng, who wanted to explode several times, had to endure it under pressure.

In Yang Shoucheng's opinion, his method is the best way to deal with paparazzi. After all, this thing is psoriasis, which is a gangrene in the entertainment industry and must be tried.

Warner still loves Zhou Yi too much.

With so many lawsuits filed at once, it doesn't matter how big the Warner family is, but a smaller, medium-sized company wouldn't be able to sustain it.

In order to build momentum for Zhou Yi’s new album conference today, Warner also invited many foreign media——

Japanese, Korean, and even old and American.

A few white people with "Times" hanging on their chests are somewhat eye-catching among the Asian yellow people.

It’s no wonder that many people are now making fun of Zhou Yi’s treatment, which is obviously not something that “Warner’s own son” can explain, and is on the level of “Warner’s own father”.

Once things go wrong, it will not only be Zhou Yi but also Warner himself who will cause trouble.

To be honest, when seeing these people, some media who were not very clear about Zhou Yi's foreign record were somewhat surprised -

Although they are all owned by Warner Corporation, isn't it a bit outrageous for you, Zhou Jianhui, to directly drag people from "Times" to support Zhouyi?

Is Zhou Yizhen your biological father?

An hour later, 10:08 minutes.

Zhou Yi, who was wearing a suit and ties, walked onto the stage under the guidance of the staff, along with Warner General Manager Zhou Jianhui and Warner Wheatfield Music Director Song Ke.

In the audience, the eager media pressed the shutter one after another——

At the same time, dozens of media reporters at the scene all received a meeting gift from Warner's on-site staff: a hardcover CD of Zhou Yi's new album "Jiangnan".

It can be considered to be in line with the theme of today’s new album conference.

On the album cover, Zhou Yifeng stands proudly under the Lushan Waterfall. Just standing there makes people feel like they are looking at a handsome young man.

No matter the composition, light, shadow, or lines, they are all perfect.

Oh shit!

This face is so damn handsome!

Warner obviously knows how to sell albums. On the poster that comes with the hardcover CD, Zhou Yina is pictured as a handsome boy.

If the wealthy teachers in Xiangjiang saw this, the first wave of albums would be sold out.

Many reporters from Hong Kong could already predict how big a storm this album would cause in Hong Kong the moment they saw this poster.

He's tall, not hunched over, has a good temperament and is damn handsome, he's a real master's killer.

The audience for Zhouyi's album is likely to be more than just young people.

"Although I feel that giving you albums is a bit of a self-praise, and I'm a little embarrassed. After all, I'm thin-skinned."

On the stage, Zhou Yi, who adjusted the position of the microphone, looked at the press officer giving him a gesture, then smiled and joked: "But there is no way, both Mr. Zhou and Director Song said this is the rule, so I can only follow it, and... Please don't take it personally.

"Of course, if you have any dissatisfaction, you are welcome to talk to Mr. Zhou and Director Song. I am just an innocent singer."

After the unique opening remarks, Zhou Yi, who had a comfortable and relaxed posture, ordered several reporters who had received red envelopes in order to start a friendly Q\u0026A——

"My expectations for this album? I think at least it can't be worse than my first album. If possible, I hope that the sales of the second album will be higher than the first album. This can be considered an improvement. .”

"Two million copies sold? No, no, no, I didn't say that, that's what you said."

"Has the lawsuit affected me? To be honest, it has, but I have no other good qualities, just stubbornness. I will never accept reconciliation with these media who are good at maliciously spreading rumors."

"Why did you name the album "Jiangnan"? Because of the main concept of this album, I won't spoil it too much. I can only say that this album is a new personal attempt for me."

"..."

Zhou Yi, who answered questions from the domestic media again and again, finally named those foreigners.

Foreign friends are also very polite, especially Korean reporters who know that several of Zhou Yi's songs became popular in South Korea after selling covers last year: "Excuse me, Mr. Zhou Yi, considering that Qi Yi Zhuan's dance music has gained a lot of fans in South Korea, do you have any Korean songs?" Song idea?”

“Not yet, because I personally don’t know Korean very well. If I want to write songs, I think I must at least learn Korean.

"I'm very grateful to Korean fans for their love. I will try my best to learn."

Zhou Yi, who communicated with reporters in fluent English, smiled and drew a pie.

When it was the Japanese reporter's turn to ask questions, the question he asked surprised Zhou Yi: "Mr. Zhou Yi, what do you think of the fact that you defeated Hikaru Utada to win the soundtrack position of Jackie Chan's "Rush Hour 2"?"

"I don't know. Maybe you should ask the producer of this movie? Maybe the song I wrote is more suitable?"

"You are called the successor of King of Dance by many fans in Japan. What do you think of this title?"

"Thanks to the fans for their support, I will continue to work hard."

"..."

As several reporters from Japan and South Korea sang along, the story of Zhou Yina being bought the song cover rights by Japanese and Korean singers immediately became clear to some mainland reporters present who were not well-informed. It really opened their eyes.

While other mainland singers are still earning RMB, Zhou Yi has already started earning US dollars?

In this era, Zhou Yi can be said to be far ahead based on this achievement alone. Why hasn't Warner publicized such a big event in a big way before? ? ?

After the new album press conference, just as Zhou Yi thought, a large number of influential media in the mainland immediately reported the story of him "sitting at home and lying down to make US dollars".

"The Light of the Chinese Music World!" The first person to counterattack the Japanese and Korean music scene! 》

"The first person in the mainland!" Japanese and Korean fans are eager to see Zhou Yi! 》

"Zhou Yi's new album released!" A song that brings out the elegance of Jiangnan! 》

"..."

Compared with the mainland media, which only follows the rules and procedures, the Hong Kong media are much more open-minded -

"Punch Dawn and kick Aaron Kwok!" The little king of Zhou Yi, Japan and South Korea became king! 》

"Japanese and Korean Yang Wei, I won't marry him unless I am!" Little King Zhou Yi wins the hearts of Japanese and Korean women! 》

"..."

Yang Wei is okay.

Due to the breadth and depth of Chinese characters, Zhou Yi was a little unsure of what this word meant.

But the mainland audience was very surprised that Zhou Yi was so promising?

You can actually go out and show off your power?

In 2001, an era when we were in urgent need of building self-confidence, Zhou Yi, as the only one in the Japanese and Korean music scene who reverse-sold copyrights, immediately aroused the curiosity of many backbones of society who are accustomed to buying newspapers and reading news every day.

At the same time, various video stores on both sides of the Taiwan Strait played a song almost at the same time. The beautiful melody carried the charm of Chinese culture and melodiously entered the hearts of every passerby——

“We who don’t understand the torment of love, hate, and hatred all think that love is like the fickle changes of the wind and clouds.

"Believe that loving one day is worth eternity

"Time is frozen at this moment~"
