The prince of heaven only wants salted fish
Chapter 104: The Sleeping Singer Rookie King (23)
Since that incident a year ago, Lou Ming's popularity has been greatly reduced - after all, he was the one whose personality collapsed, and it was he who was swarmed by his former opponents, not to mention that he also annoyed Ji. Mi, the resources that were originally allocated are now completely cleared.
If it had been earlier, he could still have terminated the contract with Jia Lan. After all, Lou Ming's status and popularity in the circle were still good before being backstabbed by the assistant. Even if he terminated the contract, he could have found a new job or gone solo, but he could have prospered. At this point, Lou Ming himself is still being chased by the merchants he represents to collect debts, let alone any company willing to pay liquidated damages for him.
And Ji Mi will not let Lou Ming leave easily: as long as Lou Ming's contract is still in Jialan, many things will not be revealed. He can knead this person as much as he wants, but if he terminates the contract with Lou Ming , maybe it gives the other party a chance to make a comeback.
Therefore, for more than a year, Lou Ming has been in a state of hiding in the snow, and the chance of being able to appear in front of the public is almost zero. There is also the collapse of his character. Over the past year, his popularity has shrunk significantly. The former top-notch person has become a nobody in the entertainment industry.
It can be said that those who still stand by Lou Ming in this situation and firmly blame everything on Jicheng are his true fans.
Unfortunately, their curses and cries of "Ji Shu's new English monograph will surely hit the market" are destined to have no effect.
In the first week of its global release, "doze" sold nearly 200,000 albums.
What does nearly 200,000 sales mean? This means that the first-week sales of this album have broken into the top ten first-week sales of albums released by all singers around the world this year. Even with less than half of the year left, this number can still sit firmly in the top fifteen.
If the name "Ji Shu" was not considered truly international before, now that the album's first-week sales are here, no one can deny his fame and achievements.
Those who previously tried to build momentum and badmouth Jicheng were doomed to be disappointed.
For a time, the name "Ji Shu" resounded throughout the country. Not only in Xia Kingdom, many places abroad were discussing this singer from the mysterious East and his songs. There are new die-hard fans who express their enthusiasm, even across the language barrier, they want to research "Singer of Heaven" and "Life After the Spotlight"; everything related to Jicheng is pulled out and speculated again, Liang Shuyu, Lou Minghe Not to mention the grievances and grievances between them, even Fang Ping, who had quit the business to open a restaurant and happily work as a cook, was surrounded by reporters and paparazzi on the way to buy food...
Of course, the above are all friendly or neutral aspects. In addition to these, there are also malicious voices in various places - some laugh at his grandstanding, some think that his songwriting skills are average and his singing skills are no more than this, and there is discrimination. People of different races and nationalities have seized on his performance in variety shows and said that he has an arrogant and eccentric attitude, and some have directly cursed him with a brain tumor sooner or later because of his narcolepsy.
The level of unpleasantness and the sheer volume of all these are far beyond what Ji Shu faced before, and even these malicious remarks cannot be made by one person who incites emotions and deliberately manipulates them.
After all, there are many famous people in the world. Jicheng's reputation is now not at the same level as before, and the maliciousness it attracts is naturally not comparable to before - they do not come from a specific person or group of people. The starting point is also difficult to explain in a general way with a single reason.
If I have to say it, perhaps the word "coincidence" would be more appropriate: after all, human nature is like this, there will always be some malice, and the reason why these people vent their anger on the name "Ji Shu" is just that he happens to be It just appeared in front of them.
Jicheng saw this very clearly, so these things couldn't cause him any harm. I usually eat and drink as I should, and my mentality is extremely stable.
Although some people don't think so... Ji Mi, for example, seems to be more nervous than Jicheng. He has been restless since the first time he saw those malicious comments online. He calls at least three times a day and wishes he was twenty. After following Jicheng for four hours to confirm his physical and mental health - his behavior finally stopped completely after Jicheng recommended the contact information of a psychological counselor to him.
In comparison, although Ji Xuan and his wife were also worried, they were far from being so neurotic.
Dong Ye is probably the most relaxed person among the people around Jicheng. After all, he should be the one who has spent the longest time with His Highness the Crown Prince - let's put it this way, Dong Ye feels that the possibility of his own mental breakdown is higher than that of Jicheng.
After the global release of "Doze", Jicheng's reputation has completely reached a new level. All kinds of invitation notices are flying in like snowflakes: not only from Xia Kingdom, but also from many top programs from other countries. Inviting him, in addition to invitations related to music and variety shows, there were also invitations to star in movies and TV series for unknown reasons.
Yes, after all, Jicheng's current fame is here. Even if his acting skills are so bad that his limbs are stiff and his face is paralyzed and he can only know one, two, three, and four lines, as long as his name is listed in the cast list, there will definitely be countless fans willing to pay for it.
But it's a pity that His Royal Highness completely gave up his plan to develop into film and television after understanding how hard it was to film.
He has enough things to be busy with now, and any multi-dimensional development is simply asking for trouble for himself.
When Dong Ye knew Jicheng's thoughts, he almost vomited out his blood: Who in the entertainment industry nowadays is trying hard to make more announcements to increase exposure? Without further ado, let’s see how Liang Shuyu became popular?
It would be better to come to Ji Shu here, he also dislikes being too busy!
But to be fair, although Ji Shu didn't do much and often clamored to quit, everything he promised was accomplished surprisingly well.
Maybe this is the legendary "less but better"?
Dong Ye thought long and hard, and quickly got back into the work at hand - now he is Jicheng's exclusive agent. "Doze" has become a global hit, and various invitations are coming in like snowflakes. Jicheng has become the boss. , but Dong Ye can't, he has to be responsible It can be said that it is very difficult to filter out high-quality and suitable announcements from these numerous invitations, arrange the schedule of your own artists, and if you have time, pay attention to the trend of the Internet to avoid being taken advantage of by interested people...etc. Busy.
However, the above can be easily solved, but now they are facing another problem.
"What is that, Xiao Shu," Dong Ye said awkwardly while rubbing his hands like a fly, "You know, in fact, the joy of life lies in constantly challenging yourself and completing some impossible things, so that you can achieve your goals in life. Goal, achieve a dream beyond yourself..."
What he said was confusing, but Jicheng simply said directly: "Speak in human terms."
Dong Ye: "Are you considering holding a concert?"
After these words came out, he immediately added: "I know that your physical condition will have a certain impact on the concert, but it is true that many of your fans are looking forward to this, and to this extent, I feel We can also hold a concert to stabilize our popularity or something."
"As for your health, we can make some emergency plans in advance and avoid risks," Dong Ye advised. "Even if other singers hold a concert, it is entirely possible that something unexpected will happen and the performance will be postponed or even canceled, right? "
Ji Mi once suggested that Jicheng hold a concert but was rejected. Dong Ye had heard about it, and he also knew what kind of lazy character Jicheng was. So when he tried to persuade him, Dong Ye seemed to have the same reasoning. I really don't have any confidence at all.
To be more precise, he is prepared for a long-term war of resistance: if he cannot be persuaded today, he will do it tomorrow; if he cannot be persuaded tomorrow, he will do it the day after tomorrow; if he cannot do it the day after tomorrow, he will do it the day after tomorrow... As long as he can show the spirit of persuading people to accept the notice and publish chicken blood articles every day, One day Ji Shu will be so annoyed that he can't bear it anymore, oh no, he will be moved by his perseverance and finally agree!
But what Dong Ye didn't expect was that he had just started with that confusing set of principles, and Jicheng nodded: "Okay."
Dong Ye was still eloquent and prepared to continue persuading: "Do you know how many of your fan friends want to see Ji Shu perform a concert before they die... eh?"
He reacted suddenly: "What did you just say?!"
Jicheng's tone was gentle: "Brother Dong, if your ears are not very good, you must go to the hospital to see an otologist in time."
Dong Ye couldn't care less about this guy's eccentric temperament and said quickly: "You promised to hold a concert?!"
Before Ji Cheng nodded and said yes, he jumped up suddenly: "Great!"
Then Dong Ye whipped out a document and handed it over with earnest eyes: "I have written down the relevant plans. Can you take a look?"
Jicheng: "..."
This preparation is quite sufficient.
He took it speechlessly, opened it and read the beginning before raising his eyebrows: "Global tour?"
Dong Ye nodded repeatedly: "We are now international superstars. Superstars are good. Of course, the standards must be higher - your current popularity and strength can definitely support a global tour! Of course... this is just a preliminary plan. If you If you have any ideas, we can discuss them. "Don't give up when you see that there are so many games!
Jicheng looked back for a while, glanced at Dong Ye, and threw the document back: "Then let's settle it for now."
He stood up and stretched out: "I have no other objections. Just come up with the complete plan as soon as possible. Oh, by the way."
He suddenly smiled slyly: "Since it is a world tour, the duration should be quite long, half a year or something is normal, right? Other things should be postponed in the meantime. I have to concentrate on preparations."
Dong Ye: "..."
Conspiracy! This is a conspiracy! ——
The concert plan has been finalized, and both Jicheng and Dong Ye have taken action quickly - of course, Dong Ye and Jialan Entertainment are mainly busy.
With the support of the top boss Ji, all members of the company acted very quickly, so they soon came up with a complete concert plan that included emergency plans for various emergencies. Jicheng and Ji Mi After a quick glance, they all thought it was pretty good, so everyone took action again, ready to turn the plan into reality.
Because of Jicheng's current reputation and the fact that the company is not short of money, everything went smoothly, including Jicheng himself flying to the first city of the tour early for song selection and rehearsal.
The diligent energy made Dong Ye call his child grown up.
In fact, holding a concert may seem unrealistic at first glance given my body's narcolepsy condition, but it is actually the most feasible thing to do right now——
After all, Ji Cheng has released two albums in a year, not to mention the new songs he wrote in each episode of "The Voice of China 2". This is definitely a high productivity among singers. Now the sales of "doze" are still rising steadily, so there is no need to rush to release new songs.
He has no intention of going down the film and television road, so there is no need to consider it. As for the rest of the variety show interviews, Ji Cheng has already appeared in many of them. The hot search of # Ji Shu died # in "Behind the Spotlight" is still a famous scene in domestic variety shows. It can be said that there is not much room for improvement - not to mention that he does not intend to be a simple variety show star.
As for winning awards, it is even more difficult to come by chance, and it is not something he can decide. So after all, holding a concert is indeed the most feasible thing Ji Cheng can do to stabilize and improve his reputation.
With this concept, even if Dong Ye does not come to actively persuade Ji Cheng to hold a concert, he will propose it to Dong Ye before long.
The narcolepsy in this body basically does not pose any obstacle: although it seems that this thing has no signs of attack to ordinary people, there is actually a period of sleepiness before it really attacks. Generally speaking, in order to maintain body functions, Ji Cheng has to wake up to eat and drink water after sleeping for three days at most - not to mention that according to Ji Shu's memory, he has rarely slept that long in all these years. And the probability of this disease attacking again within a day after waking up is also very low.
Therefore, the emergency plan mainly focuses on some plans for the postponement of the concert time that may be faced by Ji Cheng's narcolepsy if it attacks. Of course, it may be cancelled when it is absolutely necessary. The rest are all for the problems that may arise in the concerts of regular singers.
Of course, considering that Ji Cheng's body is not completely the same as that of a normal person, there are not many concerts in the tour plan. At the beginning, they are all held in China. After confirming that he can adapt to the intensity, he will start the overseas tour.
After all these plans and preparations were carefully prepared, the news that Ji Cheng will hold a world tour was officially announced.
Compared with the situation where Dong Ye and the staff in the team were all on high alert, the outside world responded enthusiastically.

[Wow, I finally waited for the concert!! I almost thought Ji Shu would never hold a concert...]
[My roommate's dying wish was fulfilled!!!]
[Yes, I am the roommate upstairs, I died with my eyes closed]
[I won't say anything more, my wallet is ready, when will it be held! Sell!]
Of course, there are some weird ones.
[With Ji Shu's body, he still holds a concert? I'm afraid he is not going to cheat money]
[Tsk, God knows how many so-called "original singers" have failed in their own concerts, I wish Ji Shu no good, hehe]
Some fans quickly counterattacked this.
[I am happy to watch my idol's concert, why cheat money?]
[Was Ji Shu's previous live performances not amazing enough? Was the ratings of the final of "The Voice of China 2" too low or the number of hits of "fulcrum" not breaking the record? 】
Of course, in addition to these sarcasms that can barely be called "reasonable and well-founded", there are also some that start with personal attacks and swear words. There is also a chaotic fight under these comments, and it is impossible to report them all.
To be honest, Ji Mi felt a little distressed after reading these insults, so he couldn't help but call Ji Cheng again, but he didn't expect to get a reply from his brother, "I'm playing games and will talk to you later."
Ji Mi: "..."
It was almost an hour before Ji Cheng called back: "What's the matter?"
Hearing the other party's relaxed voice, Ji Mi suddenly felt a little ashamed: "No, nothing."
He calmly found an excuse: "How have you been rehearsing these days?"
Ji Cheng: "Very good, weren't you playing games just now?"
Ji Mi: "..."
After a long pause, he continued: "I asked the people from Jialan Entertainment to keep three tickets for your concert. My parents and I will go to see it. Good luck in your performance."
Ji Cheng hummed a few times perfunctorily, and reciprocated in a very formal way: "Then brother, good luck in dealing with Shi Shi, oh, by the way."
He remembered something again: "What did you say about Liang Shuyu and Lou Ming last time?"
Ji Mi: "..."Isn't this too careless? !
He gave Ji Cheng a lesson in a low voice: "A month ago, Lou Ming met with Liang Shuyu. If I'm not mistaken, he should have revealed your identity to the other party."
It is semi-public in the circle that the person behind Liang Shuyu is Shi Wei, and Lou Ming is now suppressed by the Ji family and can't turn over. It's normal for him to want to take revenge - but his contract is in the hands of Jia Lan, and Ji Mi is watching him closely, so he can't do much. The most valuable thing in his hand is probably the news that Ji Cheng is the son of the Ji family.
Having a prominent background is absolutely helpful most of the time, but after some fierce lessons in the entertainment industry, Ji Mi has realized that this may also be a double-edged sword at some times.
For example, Lou Ming's fans have always insisted that Jia Lan favors Ji Cheng and tilts his resources.
At that time, Ji Cheng dealt with the key person who held the handle on Lou Ming, and the original body did not receive any protection from Jia Lan, so he overthrew Lou Ming in one fell swoop. It seemed that the victory was easy and neat, but it was mainly because the gap between the enemy and us was too great - Ji Cheng saw everything about Lou Ming, but what was going on on Ji Cheng's side? Lou Ming was completely in the dark.
Let’s put it this way. If Lou Ming knew Ji Cheng’s background and had exposed the matter to the world, it would have been difficult for Ji Cheng to win so easily.
After all, there are always some people in this world who can only see the facts they believe. In their eyes, the fact that “Jia Lan’s boss is Ji Shu’s brother” is no different from “Ji Shu is favored by Jia Lan and gets something for nothing by relying on his family’s resources.”
Of course, with Ji Cheng’s current status, it is difficult to be shaken by these rumors, but after all, Liang Shuyu is backed by Shi’s family. As Ji’s business rival, it is hard to say what will happen if they know the news.
The more Ji Mi thought about it, the more worried he became: “Why don’t we just announce your identity?”
Ji Cheng refused without thinking: “No.”
His voice was full of interest: “I’m actually quite curious about what they will do if they know this.”
Ji Mi: “…”
He tried to persuade him twice but failed, so he finally let Ji Cheng go.
Time flies, and Ji Cheng's world tour, which he had been preparing for for a long time, officially begins. Because of the thorough preparation, the entire tour went smoothly at the beginning. Even the timing of his narcolepsy attack perfectly avoided the scheduled date of the concert. Most of the online discussions about this concert were positive. Not to mention that Shishi did not take any action, even Lou Ming's group of fans who had become accustomed to bashing Jicheng seemed to have calmed down a lot - that's right, it's almost been two years in a blink of an eye, and the golden active time of being in the fan circle is generally that long. Maybe they will quit the circle and go to school or work if they feel tired.
However, under the calm appearance, Ji Cheng firmly believes that Liang Shuyu, or Shishi, will take action soon. After all, if it's too late, they may be acquired.
With the experience of running (ruining) companies in the 3467 world, and some experience in the entertainment industry in this world, Ji Cheng estimated that if the other party really took action, it should be during his world tour, and it is very likely to be when he stops abroad.
Indeed, he guessed very accurately.
Although he didn't guess that he had a narcolepsy attack the day before, and this time he slept longer than ever before.
So when His Royal Highness woke up again, he almost couldn't react to the headlines of Xiaguo news that day.
"What? Shi's collapsed?"
