Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 112 Everyone is happy together
Backstage, artist lounge and dressing room.

"Boss! Big news! Big News!"

"What's the matter that makes you so excited?" Shen Juan opened his eyes and glanced at the assistant through the reflection in the mirror.

"You broke the record again!"

"What record?"

"A record for magazine sales!" The assistant explained excitedly while holding her phone, "Boss, your COSMO magazine sold 100,000 copies at the beginning of the year, with sales of 3 million, breaking the 2 million record set by ELLEMEN!"

“I thought it was good news.”

If she wasn't putting on makeup and it was inconvenient for her to make facial expressions, Shen Juan would have rolled her eyes to the sky.

What’s the point of refreshing your personal PB?
Isn’t it still not better than Wang Yuan?

Huazi is really popular right now, having just set a record of 480 million magazine sales last month.

Although 480 million is not a very impressive result in the new era of traffic where fans' spending power has skyrocketed after the "Brotherhood of Friendship", it can only barely make it into the top .

But now, this is a groundbreaking achievement!

The shocking level is no less than the 20 million record set by Neck in 2500 years (Arthur's movie only made 2600 million).

After all, the consumption concepts of fans in fan circles are still very traditional these days, and there are really not many magazines that can sell 100 million.

"How can this not be good news? You are now the holder of the second highest physical magazine sales record in the history of domestic entertainment! Moreover, you alone own two of the top five magazines in terms of sales, ranking second and fourth respectively."

"What about the other three?"

"One copy for Wang Junkai and two copies for Wang Yuan."

Shen Juan shook his head and sighed silently in his heart. After all his effort, he was still not as popular as others who sang two nursery rhymes.

Is this the idol that Times Fengjun is training?

It's really terrifying.
"Next time, wait until I become number one before reporting the good news. I don't like the feeling of being outshined by others."

"Oh, I see, boss." The assistant nodded obediently, but after a pause, he continued, "But boss, are you really not going to read the online comments? This cover is quite special. There are many people discussing it online, and not just in China."

Hearing this, Shen Juan raised his eyebrows.

He probably knew why.

The magazine "Fashion COSMO" has had the habit of choosing Japanese and Korean celebrities as cover characters.

The same is true for the 2018 annual issue.

The theme is the new Asian force born in the 90s.

In China, I selected Shen Juan, born in 98.

In South Korea, Bae Suzy, born in 94, was selected.

I picked Nana Komatsu born in 96 in Neon.

Not only are they good-looking, but the men are also handsome and the women are beautiful.

Moreover, they are all representatives of the new generation of artists who are extremely well-known and have a certain influence in their respective countries, so it is not surprising that they have caused discussions in China, Japan and South Korea.

"Please read it to me. It's not convenient for me to open my eyes."

Shen Juan felt that since he was free now, he might as well listen to some flattery from his fans to cheer himself up.

"Wow! Our Shen Juan is also on the rise. The first of the top five magazines sold three million! Then let me briefly introduce the cover figures of the other four of the top five magazines in 2018. Vogue has a foreign supermodel on its cover, Bazaar has Fan Binbin, ELLE has Liu Wen and Ni Ni, and Jiaren has Zhao Yanzi. What does this mean? This shows that Shen Juan is conquering the fashion industry and has reached the next level that the sour chickens and dogs will never be able to touch in their lifetime!"

There was no need for the assistant to specifically state the nationality, Shen Juan knew that this was obviously a comment from a Chinese fan club netizen.

"The man who tore the comics apart and walked into reality! The beauty that glows at night! The appearance that shocked the continent! The beauty that united all the fans in China! The miracle of 1.4 billion people! The walking sculpture! Shen Juan's eyes are not real eyes, they need to debut separately! The great god of talent shows can exude a divinity that shocks people wherever he is!"

Well, this very familiar and exaggerated description is definitely from the South Korean fans next door.

When Shen Juan participated in a talent show in South Korea, he was often criticized by the trouble-making Huang Minghao, who often read out the flattery from these fans to his face.

So when he listened to it again now, he didn't feel embarrassed or nervous, as if nothing had happened. Maybe it was because his thick skin had been tempered by this group of fans. Shen Juan could accept this level of flattery with peace of mind.

"And then there are the comments from Japanese netizens, God"

Boom boom boom!
A knock on the door interrupted their chat.

He Jiong, the mainstay of Mango TV, knocked on the door and walked in with three other hosts of Kuaiben, greeting Shen Juan and other members of his team enthusiastically.

"You are still putting on makeup. Am I disturbing your work? I'm so sorry." He Jiong did not have the airs of a senior at all and behaved very friendly.

I can only say that he is really good at dealing with people, and there is a reason why he can build such a huge network of contacts.

"It's okay, I won't bother you."

The makeup artist stopped the work at hand, and Shen Juan quickly stood up and walked over to shake hands and hug He Jiong.

"Hello, Mr. He. This is probably the first time we meet. I'm really glad to meet you."

"I'm glad to meet you, too. Xiao Shen, you've been amazing lately. Your new songs have made it to the B chart's Hot 100, right? Has any Chinese singer made it to this list before?"

"Probably not." Shen Juan knew that He Jiong was asking the question even though he knew the answer, so he was appropriately modest.

"Then you have made history. I'm proud of you." He Jiong gave a thumbs up proudly.

“It’s just standing on the shoulders of those who came before us.”

"That being said, you've really pioneered something that no one has been able to do before."

"Maybe it's just because they were born in the wrong era?"

"Excessive humility becomes arrogance." He Jiong smiled.

"Then consider it my conceit." Shen Juan smiled helplessly and shrugged. What he just said was indeed the truth. Unfortunately, no one believed it.

In this era of popular Internet streaming, there are so many things that artist teams can do.

Especially after the settlement rules of the B-list Hot 100 are reformed next year, the proportion of streaming scores will increase significantly, and all K-pop idol groups will usher in their best era.

Just like South Korea’s national treasure boy band BTS.

Fire is indeed fire, but water is also indeed water.

Those European and American singers had never seen such a fan base that could increase their stats like this in their lives, and they were all shocked.

Of course, the increase in the proportion of streaming media is also good news for Shen Juan. After all, he basically has no radio points, and all his points come from digital sales and streaming media.

Plus, the domestic entertainment fan circles all learned from neighboring South Korea, so it’s nothing more than everyone enjoying it together!
If kpop can be brushed, why can’t Shen Juan be brushed?

In terms of fans, he is not necessarily weaker than others.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the T2 studio of Changsha Mango TV Broadcasting and Television Center was bustling with activity and noise.

Accompanied by the opening dance, the four hosts of Happy Family performed an opening show following the dynamic music.

"Welcome everyone to our Happy Camp on Saturday night! We are the Happy Family!"

After the familiar opening words, all the audience raised all kinds of support items to cheer for their idol crazily. Just like the situation downstairs, the largest group of fans were undoubtedly Shen Juan's fans. This fan group, which was composed of a mixture of new fans, old fans and some scattered fans who had defected from Lu Han, was quite powerful.

At this time, the fans in the audience were waving flags and cheering for their idols, and the fans of other groups were completely suppressed.

"Let's welcome today's guest!"

Live music started and the dance team came on stage.

The leading actors of "The Convenience Store of Sorrow" Wang Junkai and Dong Zijian, Di Lieba and Li Hongqi took to the stage in batches and performed their pre-rehearsed entrance dances to make their debut.

"Let's give a warm round of applause to welcome our new friends who are coming to Happy Camp for the first time." He Jiong's tone rose again, "We have Shen Juan who just made Chinese history by having his new song enter the Billboard Hot 100 chart!"

The host and several guests who had already come on stage stood consciously on both sides of the stage, leaving the middle space free.

After receiving the microphone from the staff and being notified to go on stage, Shen Juan made a brilliant appearance to the music amid the exaggerated screams of fans that broke through the dome.

"Hello everyone, I'm Shen Juan!"

The outfit that the styling team prepared for Shen Juan today is a full set of Loewe dark blue denim jacket with dark blue jeans, a simple white T-shirt inside, and even the shoes are Balenciaga high-top canvas with a washed-out effect.

The main style is the casual and unrestrained denim style.

Being handsome is as easy as breathing.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

Another round of boiling screams like slaughtering pigs rang out.

This caused several hosts and Wang Junkai, Di Lieba and others who had come on stage in advance and stood on both sides to secretly sigh at how popular Shen Juan's fans were and how quickly they were being sold.

In fact, logically speaking, the scale of fan support for these two people would not be much different from that of Shen Juan, who is also a top star.

With 16 sign-ins in a super topic, he ranks fourth in the domestic entertainment industry, only behind Lu Han, whose fan loss is continuing and the bleeding is completely unstoppable, and two other training-based boy idols in the same group.

(Shen Juan also has 16 followers, ranking fifth in the domestic entertainment industry)
With 8 sign-ins in a super topic, she is the number one female star, and she is constantly converting the fans of the mainland CP into her own fans. It will probably not be long before she breaks through the mark and can be compared with those top male stars.

But this is Shen Juan’s first time on Kuaiben after all.

So Xiao Chunjuan wanted to give him the best treatment and was willing to spend a huge amount of money to buy tickets from scalpers, just to suppress the guest Wang Junkai and win face for him.

Of course, it was also to save face for myself so that I could log on to Weibo after returning home and use this matter to criticize the black fans.

The guests' appearance session ended, the interlude chat was over quickly, and then the game session began.

Speaking of which, the grouping before the game is just like the standing positions for group photos at the Bazaar Charity Night, which is also a hassle.

Because before the official recording of the program, the agents of three top stars, Shen Juan, Wang Junkai and Di Lieba, all asked the program team to avoid communicating and interacting with their artists in the same frame as much as possible.

As a training idol, Wang Junkai, who has just become an adult, is under strict surveillance by his fans. If he has the slightest contact with the opposite sex, the other party will be cyber-bullied by his fans.

Zhang Zifeng is the best example.

This sister is really unlucky because she collaborated consecutively with the Come on Boys in "Little Farewell" and "Our Times", which led to her being collectively blasted by fans of the three companies.

Fortunately, she is not pretty enough, which makes many fans feel relieved and feel that their own sons don’t like her. Otherwise, she would have been depressed by the jealous female fans.

Then what about Di Lieba? She just formed a CP with Lu Han in the first half of the year and her popularity skyrocketed, becoming a top star.

At the moment, the company is helping her to purify her CP fans, so she needs to avoid too much interaction with other male stars so as not to offend the CP fans.

As for Shen Juan, he didn't care.

Anyway, he is one of the few top artists in the circle who can make a living by his works and stage performances even without his fans.

Moreover, he hasn't been filming any dramas or appearing on many variety shows in the past six months, so there is no such thing as a CP fan or a character filter.

Therefore, fans are relatively less sensitive to his interactions with the opposite sex, and they won’t be so jealous that they go crazy on Weibo when they see him talking to other female stars in the circle.

Of course, since the other person is unwilling to have too much contact and communication with him in front of the camera, he naturally won't force his warm face on other people's cold butt.

It's not like he's never been a pig before.

So the final solution is still the old trick of never seeing each other, which has been passed down from the era of the Four Dans and Two Bings.

The three top stars are staggered from each other, each of them is beautiful in their own way.

So as to avoid causing unnecessary disputes among fans.
