"What? Xiao Huihui joins Tianhai? So Xiao Huihui left Dingsheng just to join Tianhai?"

"No, why would Tianhai accept Xiao Huihui, a white-eyed wolf?"

"What a stupid white-eyed wolf! Isn't the person upstairs mentally retarded? Are you following what everyone else says?"

"That's it, you have no judgment at all, you can't see the obvious rhythm of the navy? First of all, if Xiao Huihui wants to terminate the contract with Dingsheng, if it hadn't been revealed from within, who would have known? Then who broke the news? What about Xiao Huihui? How is that possible? It must have been Dingsheng himself who broke the news.

So why did Dingsheng reveal that Xiao Huihui was terminating the contract with them? Why did Dingsheng give Xiao Huihui the title of a white-eyed wolf before it was established that Xiao Huihui had terminated the contract with them?

Secondly, during the trainee period, Xiao Huihui has been in Hesheng for nearly twelve years. It is undeniable that Dingsheng has trained Xiao Huihui, but Xiao Huihui has been working conscientiously during the 12 years of Dingsheng, and he does not know how much money he has made for Dingsheng. What he owes to Dingsheng has been paid off long ago. His contract with Dingsheng originally had three months left to expire. If he didn't renew it, would he be considered a wolf? "

"But he is terminating the contract!"

"Then have you never thought about why Xiao Huihui wants to terminate the contract? His contract with Dingsheng only has 3 months left to expire. He can wait until the contract expires. Who can say anything to him then? You have to know, in the past Xiao Huihui's status, this kind of termination requires huge liquidated damages. If nothing special happened, would Xiao Huihui have to pay huge liquidated damages and terminate the contract with Dingsheng? Could it be that he couldn't even wait three months? "

"..."

"So the statement that Xiao Huihui is a white-eyed wolf is completely untenable. There is a conflict between capital and artists. How can capital be wronged? Xiao Huihui is not a superstar, not even a king of songs. How can Dingsheng suffer? Grieved? You’re overthinking it!”

"..."

Look, after Xiao Huihui joined Tianhai, his reputation changed immediately.

On the one hand, Wang Xuan has too many fans. As the saying goes, since Xiao Huihui has joined Wang Xuan's company, many fans will definitely speak for Xiao Huihui.

On the other hand, Tianhai’s public relations are in place. Dingsheng can mobilize the navy to blacken Xiao Huihui, and Tianhai can naturally mobilize the navy to whitewash Xiao Huihui. With rhythm? Who wouldn’t!

Therefore, when Li Tao signed a contract with Xiao Huihui, he was not worried about Xiao Huihui's negative reputation at all. It would be difficult for Xiao Huihui to fight against Ding Sheng, but it would be too easy for Tianhai to help Xiao Huihui.

This is called the shade under the big tree. When Wang Xuan first crossed over, didn't he also encounter the same treatment as Xiao Huihui? At that time, people were bullying Wang Xuan because he was not popular and had no background. Even a popular celebrity like Wu Lei dared to criticize Wang Xuan. Later, after Lin Rui and Chen Kai supported Wang Xuan, Wu Lei didn't even dare to fart.

Of course, the peak of prosperity cannot be compared to Wu Lei and his like, but Tianhai is not Lin Rui and Chen Kai, right? Tianhai and Dingsheng are equal in size, as long as Tianhai is not afraid of offending Dingsheng.

Will Hai be afraid of offending Ding Sheng that day? The answer is no. Tianhai is not even afraid of Huayi, so how can he be afraid of offending Dingsheng?

On the other hand, Ding Sheng was actually a little afraid of Tianhai. Wang Xuan was too powerful, and Tianhai's current momentum was also very powerful. Ding Sheng really didn't want to turn against Tian Hai unless he had to, so although he was a little aggrieved, Ding Sheng finally stopped the navy and stopped leading Hei Xiao Hui Hui.

Under the ebb and flow of one another, Xiao Huihui's wave of "network-wide blackmail" soon passed.

Another impact is that Xiao Huihui has lost a lot of popularity. The popularity that skyrocketed after "The Masked Singer" has almost completely disappeared. But this is only temporary. As long as Xiao Huihui can produce works that people like, his popularity will come back soon.

...

On the other side, after Wang Xuan came to Songshan, he continued to shoot "Shaolin Temple".

When he returned to the Magic City before, he asked the crew to arrange many scenes according to his requirements. The first thing Wang Xuan did on the second day after arriving in Songshan was to check whether these scenes met his requirements.

After making some improvements, Wang Xuan began filming the feature film.

Of course, Wang Xuan also framed the scene before shooting the feature film. The scenery is not mixed with actors, it just captures the original landform of Songshan Mountain and some scenic spots of Shaolin Temple.

Wang Xuan plans to film the Shaolin Mountains with its thousands of strange rocks, verdant mountains, winding water, and ancient temples for thousands of years, and make it into a promotional video to promote the film "Shaolin Temple" and at the same time promote the Songshan Shaolin Temple scenic spot.

After spending two days on location, Wang Xuan began shooting the feature film.

It is said that Xiaohu was stopped by migrant workers and pushed into the Yellow River. Zhang Zhang was stabbed to death by Wang Renze with a sword.

The little tiger that fell into the Yellow River was washed up on the shallows by the river water. While walking on the beach, he fell down and rolled from high to low on the beach. Later, with the belief of revenge, he climbed to an ancient temple in the mountains and passed out from exhaustion.

And this ancient temple is the Songshan Shaolin Temple.

Tan Zong, the leader of the Shaolin martial arts monks, took in the dying tiger cub and treated him carefully. Seeing that the tiger was seriously injured and weak, he asked his disciples to catch frogs and cook them into porridge. Then they broke the eggs into the porridge and fed him little by little. Get it into Xiaohu's hands and provide him with nutrition.

This young man, who was so hurt that he had never shed tears, was now moved to the point of bursting into tears, his eyes filled with tears.

Under the careful care of Tan Zong and his disciples, Xiaohu quickly recovered from his injuries.

Early that morning, Tan Zong led his disciples, stretched out their arms, held up a horizontal bucket full of clear springs, and stepped on the stone pier in the river to return. Xiaohu also imitated Tan Zong and others, carrying a pointed bucket full of water and following the crowd splashing.

Seeing that the stone piers in the river were far apart, I didn't dare to take a step rashly. When I was worried and at a loss, I suddenly heard laughter coming from behind me, and a "Don't let go"...

Xiaohu looked back, and the person who caught his eye was a young woman.

The two looked at each other and smiled. Xiaohu couldn't help but feel a little crazy when he saw the young woman's smile. Unexpectedly, the young woman called a shepherd dog and chased the tiger cub.

The little tiger was so frightened that he quickly stepped on the stone pier and ran across the river. Looking back at the provocation from the shepherd dog on the other side of the river, the shepherd dog really chased him. The scared little tiger picked up the bucket and ran back to the Shaolin Temple tremblingly.

By the time he ran back to the backyard of the Shaolin Temple, there was not much water left in the bucket. The law enforcement monk happened to be there too. Seeing that he didn't bring back much water, he gave him a cold look.

Xiaohu knew he was in the wrong and said uneasily, "I'll mention it again." But after picking up the bucket and walking not far, I heard the sound of monks practicing martial arts coming from the temple wall. Xiaohu couldn't help but climbed up the wall to take a look, and was stunned for a moment.

He followed his father in the world since he was a child and learned many skills, but he had never seen such superb martial arts before, and he couldn't help but be mesmerized by it. This is when Monk Lukong discovered him and deliberately frightened him. He sent a dart directly into Xiaohu's bun.

Xiaohu was so frightened that he almost fell off the wall.

Later, the little tiger climbed up the wall again, no longer scaring him. As he was watching in rapt attention, the shepherd dog chased him and bit the little tiger's trouser leg. Xiaohu quickly jumped down from the wall, ran back to the bedroom and closed the door.

The shepherd dog never left, and kept roaring at the little tiger.

Xiaohu had an idea, took off the hemp rope from the wall, and made a condom. Throw it from the window to the ground, and then throw a steamed bun into the trap to lure the shepherd dog into the trap.

The sheepdog approaches, but is not harnessed.

Xiaohu took out another egg, took a bite of it, and then threw it into the nest. This time the sheepdog finally took the bait. Seeing the right moment, the little tiger lassoed the sheepdog and pulled it into the house.

At this moment, Xiaohu saw the law enforcement monk coming. He was so frightened that he quickly carried the sheepdog to the bed, hid it under the quilt, and covered it with his body to pretend to sleep. When the law enforcement monk saw Xiaohu sleeping on the bed, he shook his head and said, "Gluttonous eating and greedy sleepiness cannot be taught."

When the law enforcement monk left, Xiaohu climbed out of bed and happily lifted the quilt, only to find that the shepherd dog had lost its breath and was covered to death by him.

Xiaohu was a little stunned and didn't know what to do. After thinking about it, I put the sheepdog into a bucket, secretly came to the river, and buried it with some guilt. But halfway through, I felt that burying it was too wasteful and I should make the best use of it.

So he dug out the sheepdog again, washed it, shaved it, and roasted it.

After roasting, the aroma is overflowing.

Master Tanzong came over smelling the aroma, and his disciples also smelled the aroma and came over. After that, Xiaohu held a dog meat feast with Master Tan Zong and his disciples.

In the middle of eating, a young woman also came over. At first she thought everyone was eating something, but later she realized that it was actually the shepherd dog she raised.

The young woman was so angry that she chased the little tiger and beat him.

He was stopped by Master Tan Zong from behind.

After that, Xiaohu officially became a monk, became a disciple of Master Tanzong, and practiced martial arts.

This plot is not complicated and does not require high-level acting skills, so Wang Xuan's filming progress is very fast and the plot will be completed by the end of the month. Then we started filming footage of Xiaohu practicing martial arts in the Shaolin Temple.

On the other hand, October is over.

This October, Tianhai’s harvest is still huge.

After Chen Xueqi's album "I Only Care About You" was released, it became a hit. Tianhai also held several large-scale signing parties for Chen Xueqi in major cities across the country, which further stimulated the sales of the album. By the end of the month, "I Only Care About You" The physical album of "You" has sold a total of 12 million copies, which is more than 1 million higher than the physical sales of the "Fairy Tale" album.

The digital album also sold better than "Fairy Tale", actually selling 45 million copies.

unbelievable!

From this album alone, Tianhai earned 1.1 billion after deducting various costs.

Although it is pre-tax income, it is still scary.

Zhu Xu and Li Tao saw what it means to make money.

Weng Qiuping was also so surprised that he couldn't speak. He suddenly realized that it was a right decision for him to give Tianhai to Wang Xuan in exchange for 12% of the shares.

Even if Tianhai was sold to Wang Xuan in its entirety, it would only cost about 1.5 billion. But now, in September and October alone, Tianhai has earned more than 2 billion from the album revenue of "Fairy Tale" and "I Only Care About You".

Of course, most of this money still went into Wang Xuan's personal pocket, and Tianhai could only get about 30%, which is about 500 million after tax.

But it’s also terrifying.

You know, this is just album income!

Generally speaking, the bulk of profits for an entertainment company like Tianhai must come from its artists' commercial performances, endorsements, concerts, and movie box office.

Income from songs and albums can only be regarded as sweeteners.

But now, this is more than just sweetness?

Earning 500 million in two months, converted into movies, this is the amount of money that can only be earned by making a movie with a box office of more than 1.5 billion.

Furthermore, from January to now, Tianhai's artists have released many songs, and those songs have at least 60 million downloads. "Fairy Tale" has received more than 100 million downloads, which was distributed to Tianhai Money, up to 400 million...

It’s so profitable!

Weng Qiuping did some rough calculations. In the 10 months since Wang Xuan took over Tianhai, including all aspects of profits, Tianhai has actually earned more than 1.3 billion...

1.3 billion in 10 months, with an average monthly profit of more than 130 million...

This is simply robbery.

Thinking of this, Weng Qiuping couldn't help but gasp.

Of course, he also knew that the money was mainly brought in by the two albums "Fairy Tale" and "I Only Care About You", as well as the monthly singles and the TV series "Born Together". In comparison, the proportion of revenue that Tianhai's artists bring to the company is pitifully small, only about 300 million.

It’s an abnormal income ratio.

There is no way, except for Chen Xueqi, Lin Zhixiang, Zhu Xiaoxiao, Xiao Huihui and Du Chengfei, Tianhai has too few big-name artists. They are all newcomers. Even if they accept business endorsements, the endorsement fees are very low.

Zhu Xiaoxiao and Xiao Huihui had just joined Tianhai and had not brought any income to the company at all.

Lin Zhixiang also joined Tianhai in the middle of the year, but he lost a lot of popularity when he joined. Although his popularity rebounded a lot later because of the song "Laughing at the Storm", the endorsements he received were still limited, and he only brought tens of millions to the company. income.

In fact, most of this 300 million income was contributed by Chen Xueqi and Du Chengfei. It is not just endorsement income, but also concert income and commercial performance income. Chen Xueqi has not held a solo concert yet, but after Du Chengfei's album became popular, he held several concerts across the country.

In fact, if Wang Xuan is willing to accept these endorsements, Tianhai's income is estimated to increase by two to three hundred million. I don't know how many big names want to be endorsed by Wang Xuan, and the prices they offer are still sky-high. It's just that Wang Xuan refused them all.

It was a pity, but Weng Qiuping would not and did not dare to interfere with Wang Xuan. He had not forgotten who brought Tianhai into existence.

Another point is that Weng Qiuping believes that this abnormal income ratio will be much better next year.

Next year, the proportion of revenue contributed by Tianhai's artists to the company will definitely increase significantly. Not to mention anything else, Chen Xueqi's contribution ratio has been greatly increased.

The album "I Only Care About You" is so popular. Chen Xueqi's current popularity has reached 25 million, surpassing most singers. She will only win the Best Female Singer of the Year after this year's annual music festival. At that time, Chen Xueqi's The market will definitely skyrocket.

In fact, the market has already skyrocketed now.

Many big names now want to invite Chen Xueqi to endorse, and the endorsement price offered has reached as high as 20 million. If Chen Xueqi is willing, she can accept more than 10 endorsements every minute.

It's just that Wang Xuan told Guo Hong not to accept endorsements casually.

In addition to the popularity of Chen Xueqi's album, at the end of October, Deng Ziqing's "Light Years Away" finally ranked second on the new song list, with 65.8 million downloads.

This result actually dumbfounded many people.

Because in the first week, "Light Years Away" was not very strong. It was suppressed by the new songs of Zhu Xiaoxiao, Lin Jun and Chen Minzhi, and it only ranked fifth.

Just when everyone thought the new song chart was settled, the situation suddenly changed.

A film company in Meilaiwu made an interstellar blockbuster "Space Journey" and wanted to use this movie to open up the Chinese market, so they planned to commandeer a Chinese theme song.

Originally, they planned to ask top songwriters from major entertainment companies in China to sing songs. However, the person in charge of the company's China region suddenly discovered that "Light Years Away" on the new song list in October was very suitable for "Space Journey" Chinese theme song.

Just like Tianhai purchased the right to use this song. After the two parties reached an agreement, an official announcement was made. The company Meilaiwu also used the song "Light Years Away" to shoot a movie MV promotional video and released it to the Chinese market.

Then, "Light Years Away" exploded.

Whether abroad or domestic, "Light Years Away" was an immediate explosion.

In just three days, the MV for the movie "Light Years Away" was viewed more than 20 million times.

It’s similar domestically.

Everyone suddenly discovered that the correct way to open the song was to pair it with a MV.

The melody of this song was a bit strange when I heard it before, but when paired with the MV, I felt that the melody seemed to come from distant space, vast, lofty, catchy, and shocking.

Also, the filming of the MV was a blast. The two protagonists met outside the world and fell in love in a crisis. Space witnessed the greatness of their love. The romance and sincerity of the epic space journey illustrate the touching and pure love between space passengers, showing the soul-stirring and infinite charm of space love. Combined with the MV, everyone finally felt deeply what the song "Light Years Away" wanted to express. It really feels like walking in space.

That feeling is so wonderful.

How wonderful!

So "Light Years Away" immediately exploded, and the number of downloads increased steadily, from sixth to fifth to fourth, third, and second...

How can the industry not be dumbfounded by this?

Why aren't the masses dumbfounded by this?

It should be noted that it was already the 15th when Meilaiwu Company acquired "Light Years Away". At that time, the gap between "Light Years Away" and the number one "In the World" was really big, and there was not enough time. Otherwise, even the number one movie "Light Years Away" would not be available. "Unparalleled" may be overturned.

Deng Ziqing also gained a lot of popularity with the hit song "Light Years Away", with 13 million followers on Weibo. She was successfully promoted to a top second-tier singer, and is only one step away from the threshold of a first-tier singer.

The last one on the new song list was Luo Wen. "Unparalleled" received 71 million downloads. Luo Wen also opened up the mainland market in one fell swoop and gained a lot of popularity in the mainland.

Zhu Xiaoxiao's "Invisible Wings" ranked third, with 64 million downloads. With this song, Zhu Xiaoxiao finally consolidated the popularity she had gained on the "King of Masked Singer" stage, and it is still growing.

Lin Jun ranked fourth and almost cried to death.

It doesn’t matter that the album market was crushed by Chen Xueqi, but it didn’t even make it into the top three on the new song list, which is really speechless.

Cyndi Yang and Chen Minzhi also felt uncomfortable. That's right, forget it for Zhu Xiaoxiao. The new song list was actually crushed by third-tier singer Deng Ziqing. Can you feel good?

Some are happy and some are worried!
