New York.
Wang Qiang is one of the special reporters of Sohu.com. He has stayed in America for a long time and is mainly responsible for news gathering.
However, the news category he is responsible for is more of current affairs news, and he only has a little exposure to entertainment news.
For example, he knew that a new female singer named Jane was very popular recently, and he had heard the songs she sang on the radio.
But he didn't pay attention to who Jane was.
Mainly because I don't have time.
America's consumption is not low. Although Sohu.com is a mainstream portal website, it plans to go public in the second half of this year.
However, the profit model of Sohu.com is not yet clear.
Therefore, these staff members who stayed in America were working for two people.
Tomorrow, Wang Qiang will finally have a rest day. After working for a month, he doesn't want to go out on a rest day.
Not only that, he didn't even want to cook.
No, he just used instant noodles to deal with it at night.
While waiting for the instant noodles to be ready, he turned on the TV in the rental house.
"Fuck!!!"
The next second, when he saw the characters on the TV, Wang Qiang stood up immediately, and the instant noodles were instantly taken down and scattered on the floor.
But Wang Qiang has no time to pay attention to this now.
The person on the TV is Shen Miaomiao, right?
right?
You shouldn't admit your mistake, right?
Wang Qiang rubbed his eyes and opened them again. The person in the picture was still so familiar.
Why did she come to the beautiful country?
And even appeared on the Oprah talk show?
Are aliens attacking Blue Star?
Otherwise, how could the world change so fast?
As a media practitioner, Wang Qiang is very aware of the weight of Oprah's talk show, even though Shen Miaomiao is a well-known singer in China.
But in America, who cares about that?
etc!
Suddenly, Wang Qiang heard a very familiar word.
Jane?
Jane is Shen Miaomiao?
Damn it!
Wang Qiang cursed again, then grabbed a piece of clothing and hurried out the door without even having time to change his shoes.
But halfway through, he suddenly stopped.
yes.
Why is he so stupid? What time is it now? What can he buy when he goes out?
Check online!
Recently, Jane has been a little popular, and there must be a lot of news going up. The Internet here in the United States has much richer resources than in China.
Afterwards, Wang Qiang ran to the computer.
Power on!
Turn on the monitor!
Google launches!
After a while, there was a crackling sound in the room.
a long time.
Wang Qiang looked at the computer screen with dull eyes. What did he see?
Shen Miaomiao quietly went to the United States and released an album, and then the sales turned out to be pretty good, and it even appeared on the bulletin board.
An album with seven songs on the charts is incredible!
Snapped!
After a while, Wang Qiang slapped himself hard. He hated himself for not paying attention earlier.
God, please protect me from other people’s first-hand news.
After being slapped, Wang Qiang immediately ran to the phone, picked up the phone and made an overseas call to China.
"Hello?"
"Chief Editor, is there any news about Shen Miaomiao in China recently?"
"ah?"
"No?"
"marvelous!"
"Ah, that's right, editor-in-chief, there is breaking news, Shen Miaomiao, she has released an album in the United States!!"
"And it even made it onto the American Billboard Hot 100!"
"ah?"
"How should I put it? The Billboard Hot 100 is the most authoritative and fair song ranking list in the United States. I can't say how to describe it specifically."
"But the whole world recognizes it. Any song that is on the charts, no matter whether it is good or bad, must be popular enough..."
"Okay, okay, I'm going to write the manuscript now, and I'll send it to you right away."
After hanging up the phone, Wu Qiang returned to the computer desk with enthusiasm and started working directly.
The manuscript must be written as soon as possible.
He is very aware of the influence of Oprah's talk show. At this moment, countless media colleagues are paying attention to Shen Miaomiao.
If he doesn't move faster, move faster, and grab the serve, there's a high probability that it won't be his turn.
The fact is just as Wang Qiang expected, while he was working on the manuscript, a group of colleagues were also preparing this blockbuster news.
However, no matter how fast Wang Qiang wrote, it was useless.
Because a portal website has already published a newsletter.
[my country's well-known singer Shen Miaomiao was a guest on America's famous TV program "The Oprah Show"]
[It is reported that Shen Miaomiao released her first English-only album in the United States the day before yesterday, and sold more than 60,000 copies the next week, landing on the Billboard 200 album list in the United States...]
Subsequently, the second half of the newsletter focuses on introducing the bulletin board, including but not limited to history, honor, impartiality, authority, etc.
Among them, the reporter focused on a case, taking the world's pop king Michael Jackson as an example to demonstrate the authority of the bulletin board.
By the time Wang Qiang edited the news and sent it back to Sohu headquarters, the article had already begun to ferment.
Although there were not many Internet users in China around 2000, explosive news like this has always been spread by tens of thousands.
Then it is quickly transferred from online to offline at the speed of fission reaction.
In less than an hour, all offline print media and TV news knew about Shen Miaomiao's singing at Lao Mei.
After that, the phone bill exploded.
All news organizations that learned about this picked up the phone one after another and made overseas calls, which brought Huaxia Telecom an extremely considerable amount of cross-border communication expenses.
Immediately afterwards, various media outlets showed their magical powers and frantically collected Shen Miaomiao's news reports in Lao America from various channels.
Those daily newspapers are a little better. As long as they catch up a little bit, they can report this matter on the front page of the new issue.
And those periodicals such as weekly and monthly magazines are not so convenient.
However, faced with this level of news, most journals decide to publish special issues.
Even if the special issue only reports on this one incident, it is still worthwhile.
A Chinese person has made a name for himself in the American music scene. What a proud thing. The key is that this time the protagonist is no longer from Hong Kong and Taiwan.
But a native of the mainland.
Growing up in the Mainland, receiving education in the Mainland, and debuting in the Mainland, Shen Miaomiao is the queen of the Mainland no matter how you look at it.
However, maybe after some time, the name of the mainland queen will have to be changed.
What should I replace it with?
Asian diva?
International little diva?
At the same time, Li Jie also received news from Warner's mainland branch. The media had already been busy calling the Warner branch.
Among them, there are several media outlets that cannot be refused.
So, the call came to Li Jie.
