China Entertainment 2000

Chapter 45 Pioneer of Chinese popular hiphop

"Mainland singer Zhou Yi shows off his power, and his album sales top the Baodao monthly chart! 》

"Famous music producer Zhang Yadong: I admire Zhou Yi very much, he is a genius. 》

"Pu Shu: Zhouyi is a genius, but I am not as good as him." 》

"The biggest surprise in the Chinese music scene of the millennium!" 》

"..."

Compared with the media in Hong Kong and Taiwan, which are full of tricks and come up with shocking headlines, the mainland media are somewhat simple when it comes to blowing up the Zhouyi, and many newspapers even have an obvious official tone.

Those who knew it were reporting on the pride of the mainland music scene, but those who didn’t know it thought they were watching political affairs.

As the only mainland singer in this era who can counterattack the Taiwanese music scene, even though he has not yet returned to the mainland to hold a book signing, the media took the lead to build the momentum.

As for Sun Nan, just play for a while, you are no longer important now.

To show his sincerity, Zhou Jianhui even formally issued official invitations to several major newspapers and periodicals in the mainland.

August 8th is a very auspicious day.

Warner, who directly booked a hotel for the celebration party, had a huge ice sculpture brought in with the word "30" written on it.

After some review and outlook, General Manager Zhou Jianhui personally invited Zhou Yi, who was wearing a suit and leather tie, to come on stage and handed the awl in his hand with a smile: "Congratulations, Zhou Yi, go and smash it."

After taking the tool, Zhou Yi weighed it twice as a habit, and then, under the gaze of everyone, smashed the ice sculpture in front of him that glowed brightly under the light——

boom!

The moment ice shards flew everywhere, the salute that had been prepared was played in an instant!

"cheers!"

Zhou Yi was in high spirits, holding his champagne high, and his tailored suit showed off his figure just right. He is 1.83 meters tall, and his height after putting on shoes is 1.85 meters, which is outstanding in this era.

The specially invited media took root in the same area and pressed the shutter on the handsome young man in a suit and leather shoes on the stage, clearly capturing his high-spirited and peerless appearance in the lens!

In the seats below, representatives from record companies such as Rolling Stone, PolyGram, Virgin, Foremost, Universal and even Sony, as well as their own artists, applauded——

Among them, Elva Hsiao from Virgin Records, Sun Yanzi from Warner Music Group and Zhang Shaohan from Foremost Records cheered the most enthusiastically.

The smile on Sun Yanzi's face never broke, and Elva Hsiao never took his eyes off Zhou Yi from the beginning.

"Congratulations, it's only been a while, I didn't expect that I would take advantage of your popularity."

Elva Hsiao, who came with champagne, elegantly clinked glasses with the man. Elva Hsiao, who was very emotional, glanced at the female stars not far away who glanced at her from time to time, and said with a evil smile: "They are so jealous of me now. ”

"You can use my popularity as much as you like, just remember to pay me protection money."

After clinking glasses, Zhou Yi, who smiled and tilted his head, looked up and down at the woman's outfit today. The blue shoulder-length dress was particularly eye-catching.

For Elva Hsiao, who was willing to divert popularity to herself again and again when she was an amateur, Zhou Yi's attitude towards her is naturally completely different from his attitude towards other unfamiliar actresses.

A familiar conversation speaks volumes.

After all, he was confident that he would be popular because the worst songs in the album had all been on the charts, and several of them had topped the charts. Elva Hsiao couldn't be more enlightened.

Even though he was willing to help himself under so much pressure from Viking Music, it would be a bit rude to say that Zhou Yi was not grateful.

"With this relationship between the two of us, do I still need to pay protection fees?" Elva Hsiao pretended to be surprised, blinking and raising her eyebrows at him.

"Of course, I always treat everyone equally. Even if Sun Yanzi and Zhang Shaohan come, they still have to pay me protection money."

Before Zhou Yi finished speaking, Sun Yanzi's smart voice came from behind -

"What protection money? Have you met the Baodao gang?"

The Baodao gang was as well-known in the entertainment industry as the Hong Kong gang in the last century. Although it has become somewhat restrained after entering the new millennium, it still exists.

For example, Chen Xinhong, the lead singer of Mayday, a band owned by Rolling Stone Records that also released an album in July, has a gang background.

"I'm going to be a gangster. Do you have any protection money that I can collect?"

Zhou Yi, who was talking about running around, turned around, and what caught his eyes were Sun Yanzi and Zhang Shaohan - one with short hair, the other with long hair.

It's just that compared to the more active Sun Yanzi, Zhang Shaohan seemed a bit restrained, and he called "Brother Yi" in a formal manner.

The girl kept her distance very carefully.

After all, Zhou Yi is no longer the amateur who joked and joked with her a few months ago.

"Congratulations, Shao Han, you are also popular."

Zhou Yi, who raised his glass to Zhang Shaohan, smiled and resolved the alienation: "But you have to ask your company to pay more for this protection fee. My appearance fee is very expensive now."

Zhang Shaohan, who couldn't help but smile, nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Sun Yanzi could see that he was busy and livened up the atmosphere: "What about me? Zhou Yi, we are in the same company and have the same boss. I am enjoying your popularity and you have the nerve to charge me protection money?"

"Nonsense, brothers have to settle the accounts clearly. I'm going to double down on your mentality of wanting to have sex for nothing."

"??? I dare to give it to you and dare to accept it?"

Sun Yanzi was about to take action, causing Zhou Yi to slap the back of his hand.

Xiao Yaxuan, who witnessed the performance of these two people, narrowed her eyes slightly, took a sip of champagne, and then continued to chat with her good sister Sun Yanzi.

Not far away, Zhuo Wei, the mainland paparazzi who quietly sneaked in with the help of Xiangjiang forces and was eyeing the biggest news in the room, subconsciously took a picture of the man and three women joking and amusing——

Until, a super boss appeared in his camera with a woman.

Li Zongsheng, Liu Ruoyin.

One is a monument in Baodao and even in the pop music industry of China Entertainment, a name that can never be bypassed, a top creative master;

One is the first sister of Rolling Stone Records.

Zhou Jianhui, who acted as an introducer, directly introduced the two of them.

"I listened to your album and it's great."

Li Zongsheng, whose beard is already a little gray, smiled and praised: "You have opened up a new field for Chinese music, which is amazing."

"I am convinced that I lost to you on the last day." Liu Ruoyin beside him looked at the man in front of him carefully for several times, his eyes lit up and he said kindly.

"Thank you, Brother Shengda. Sister Ruoyin, I just took advantage of the late release date."

The sweet-talking Zhou Yi climbed up the pole. Sun Yanzi on the side did not dare to make any more noise. He took Zhang Shaohan and Elva Hsiao and slipped directly to the side, looking forward to eating melon.

During this pleasant chat, Liu Ruoyin even pretended to complain about Zhou Yi's lack of martial ethics, and sneak-attacked her, a 31-year-old comrade, to quickly increase their social acquaintance with each other through jokes.

"You don't know, I was still cooperating with the director of the new drama to revise the script. Suddenly I received a call from the company asking me to come back and continue to work overtime to promote "Later". I thought the company was committing a fraud and was planning to trick me into returning the money. a surprise.

"Who would have thought that it turned out to be a surprise, but the surprise turned into shock."

Liu Ruoyin, who was chatting about interesting things during the fight, also pointed at Li Zongsheng: "I don't even have time to understand the characters in the new script."

"You haven't found the actress for your drama yet, and you haven't even finished revising the script. Are you in a hurry?"

Li Zongsheng, who is also capable of joking, cheerfully revealed: "Zhou Yi, don't listen to her, the drama she accepted is a TV series based on a comic book.

"Have you ever heard of the comic book "The Lady"? The plot needs drastic adaptation. She is actually still doing nothing."

I've heard of it, why haven't I heard of it, but unfortunately I haven't seen it.

When Zhou Yi heard the name of this comic, a drama suddenly popped into his mind, a popular drama that he had watched as a child in his previous life——

"Pink Lady".

His first impression of Cheng Hao in his previous life came from the heartthrob in this drama.

Cheng Hao also relied on this drama and his role as a heartthrob to become popular all over the country.

Seeing that the conversation between the two Chinese music creators, an old one and a young one, seemed to be getting more and more heated, the reporters present took some photos in the spirit of showing up.

The next day, major media outlets in Baodao and Baodao published reports about Li Zongsheng and other music industry figures appearing at the Warner Celebration Party, sending blessings to Zhou Yi and expressing his views on Zhou Yi in an interview——

"I think Zhou Yi is an unparalleled talented musician. His talent in music surprises me, and he has an extremely accurate judgment on the future direction of the Chinese music scene.

"Just like Tao Zhe created the R\u0026B genre in the Chinese music scene, Zhou Yi also single-handedly created the hiphop genre in the Chinese music scene.

“In other words, he introduced this style of music into the Chinese music scene.

"In this regard, Zhou Yi is the undisputed pioneer and the pioneer of the entire Chinese music scene."

"Shocking!" Li Zongsheng appointed successor! Zhouyi may become the leader in the Chinese music scene! 》

"[I'm not as good as him]", Li Zongsheng admitted that he had exhausted all his talents. Now may be the era of Zhouyi! 》

"Surrounded by beauties, the popular singer Zhou Yi is very beautiful..."

Amidst all the praise and compliments, there is one newspaper whose painting style is somewhat out of place——

In the photo, good sisters Sun Yanzi, Elva Hsiao and Zhang Shaohan are surrounding Zhou Yi, talking and laughing with him, and even having a lot of physical contact with him.
