Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 81: When a whale falls, everything comes alive
October 2017, 10, 8:12 noon.

A super-large event that was enough to subvert the domestic entertainment traffic pattern and change the entertainment industry ecology suddenly occurred.

M鹿M: [Hello everyone, let me introduce to you, this is my girlfriend @关小彤]

Lu Han, whose popularity is definitely ahead of other traffic stars, suddenly announced his new relationship on Weibo.

And the object turned out to be the "national daughter" Guan Xiaotong who was filming "Sweet Combat" with him!

Afterwards, Guan Xiaotong also posted a Weibo to interact with her boyfriend: [Oh my god, snap! @M鹿M]

At first, many netizens thought it was fake.

Because they were filming the TV series "Sweet Combat", everyone thought it was an advance promotion for the work.

At most, the publicity was a little too bold.

Unexpectedly, NetEase Entertainment immediately sent someone to contact Lu Han’s studio to verify the matter. The studio responded “really”, which put the whole matter to rest.

This is a genuine announcement of a relationship!

Now it's fun.

For a top-notch star who is at the peak of his popularity and is a former boy band idol who is not allowed to date, suddenly announcing his relationship is tantamount to being disqualified as an idol and betraying his fans.

According to rough statistics, on the first day of the official announcement of the relationship, more than 100 of Lu Han’s fan clubs were closed, and the number of fans lost on Weibo reached a staggering 800,000.

These are real fans, not fake robot attention like Malanshanpojie.

Then, a full 170,000 Lu Di CP fans who felt they had been unilaterally deceived and betrayed were all purified and absorbed by Dilraba Dilmurat under the guidance of the Jiaxing team.

This further increased the popularity of Dilraba Dilmurat, who has no actual experience in film and television dramas. Just by forming couples in variety shows, she has completely stabilized herself in the top echelon of female stars.

(Gao Wen and Feng Jiu are both supporting roles and do not count as achievements.)
This also means that there are very few big-budget top-level projects in the industry that would invite Di Lieba to star in them, because she only has popularity but has never proven her ability to carry a drama.

In addition, many of Lu Han’s career fans and girlfriend fans also angrily quit following him. Some of them ran to other camps to report, while others became casual fans waiting for the emergence of a new favorite.

KrisTaoLay and the other two enjoyed a lot.

Of course, the vast majority of fans who have ambition, dignity, or a bottom line in chasing stars would not be fans of these three.

After all, I had fought with their fans for Lu Han in the past few years. Even if I quit being their fan, I would never be their fan again.

The same is true for Arthur.

He markets himself every day to gain popularity, traffic and fans, which makes Megan sick.

These homeless Meganes would not like this kind of inferior A-goods that tie up their idols all day long.

Arthur always finds ways to keep himself from becoming popular. It is recommended to investigate whether there are any traitors in his team.
Then, in 18, the dolls came out and attracted a lot of Lu Han’s old fans.

This group of old fans with many years of experience in chasing stars teach novice fans who have just entered the fan circle and started chasing stars on various platforms to vote for their idols, support them, control comments and collect data.

It can be said that it is indispensable.

So the statement that “Lu Han’s fans after he stopped being a fan supported half of the entertainment industry” is not just a casual remark.

When a whale falls, all things are born.

It's probably something like this.

In short, after this battle, the traffic pattern of the domestic entertainment industry has completely changed, and various artist teams and major entertainment companies have arranged marketing policies and formulated development strategies.

As for whether one can seize the opportunity to absorb and utilize these hundreds of thousands of loose powders, it depends on one's own abilities.

First, there were the commercial shoots for Estee Lauder, OPPO R11s, L'Oreal, Lays Potato Chips, and Colgate, followed by the cover of the November issue of "Bazaar Men" and the recording and production of the promotional song for the League of Legends S7 World Finals.

There was no rest at all, and it took Shen Juan a little more than a week to finally finish dealing with domestic affairs.

10 month 9 day.

Took an international flight to LA.

Under his strong suggestion, Le Hua has been working hard to recruit people in the United States to form a production team and has almost set up the environment for making songs.

After all, Lehua is not a top record company like Universal, Warner, and Sony, and it has no development foundation in the United States, so it is not easy to prepare manpower and form a team.

Therefore, it is best to make plans early so that the company can have ample time to prepare.

In fact, Shen Juan had two options to choose from when he went to America to produce English works for the global market.

One is to adopt the strategy of casting a wide net and catching more fish like Wu Jiaheng, and directly spend a lot of money to buy a few songs from a Grammy-level production team and sing them yourself.

This is the easiest and most convenient way.

As a singer, you only need to complete the recording and MV shooting work, then you can return home happily and wait for the song to be completed, and then put it on the shelves to collect money and traffic.

But Shen Juan certainly doesn't want to do that.

After all, he has something in his belly, so he would not waste it if he didn't use it. And to be frank, the level of those so-called Grammy-winning production teams is just so-so.

The lower limit is definitely guaranteed.

At least Wu Jiaheng's songs are pretty good.

But the upper limit is hard to say.

After all, they will not sell the really awesome and hit songs to an unknown Chinese singer.

This is not in their own interest.

Of course, they may not be able to do it.

Therefore, Shen Juan felt that a work that was just passing the passing line was obviously not qualified to be his debut song in the United States.

In his opinion, since they have come to the United States to develop and explore the European and American markets, they must not be perfunctory.

From the beginning to the end, he had no intention of relying on his international celebrity status to gild himself and return to the domestic entertainment industry to continue to reap the benefits of his fans.

He truly intends to expand his popularity and influence in Europe and the United States and take the route of a global icon.

So without even thinking about it, Shen Juan chose the second option: producing and releasing new songs by himself.

The character of a creative genius is very popular in Europe and the United States.

There are several options for releasing new songs:

Release singles, EPs and regular albums.

Releasing a single is easy.

After producing the song with the team and completing the vocal recording and MV shooting, the work is done, such as the song "Papillon" that Wang Jiaer released some time ago.

But the problem is that opportunities are rare.

His current career development focus and base are in China, so it is impossible for him to stay in Europe and the United States for a long time.

Therefore, he still wants to use the few exposure opportunities to gain as much traffic and popularity as possible in the United States, expand his influence, and lay the foundation for future development.

Therefore, the only option that suits him best right now is to release an album or an EP (mini album).

To put it simply, this time we will produce a few singles first and release them one by one in the next few months.

This is commonly known as a single, which can also bring popularity to the release of subsequent albums and stimulate sales. Even if it is found that the first single does not receive a good response, it can be stopped in time, the album production can be stopped or it can be redone.

Then after returning to China to complete my work there, I will take some time next year to go to the United States to complete the rest of the content, and then the album will be almost done.

As for the quality of the album
Shen Juan is still quite confident.

I don't seek to win the B chart number one single overnight.

At least it shouldn't be a problem for him to hit the Billboard Hot 100 and create history for Chinese singers.

And most importantly, if these album pre-heating singles are as good as Shen Juan expected, perhaps they can also attract those fans who chose to run away because of Lu Han’s official announcement of his relationship before the show is broadcast.

There is fat meat right in front of you, there is no reason not to eat it.

Information asymmetry does exist, and there is no reason not to use it.

So Shen Juan can probably only say sorry in his heart to his good brother Cai Xukun, who still has the dream of becoming an idol and is training hard to put it into practice.

After all, if he had eaten up Lu Han's fans in advance, the idol wouldn't have been so popular, and Kun Kun wouldn't have gained so much fan traffic.

But this is the entertainment industry.
When tangible benefits are placed before their eyes, most people will always consider themselves first.

Shen Juan is no exception.

　Thank you all for your recommendation votes, comments, monthly tickets and support! Thank you very much!

　　As a side note, Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong have actually been dating for a long time, so Lu Han took on the role in the crappy drama "Sweet Combat" where they were in a relationship at their own expense.

　　Even Lu Han, who has a huge traffic gap and is surrounded by rivals, has kept it a secret for so long. I don’t think that celebrities will be discovered by paparazzi as soon as they go out on a date, do they?

　　It’s not as simple as I imagined.

　　If they are caught as soon as they make a date, and the news spreads ten to a hundred times, then probably no star in the entertainment industry would dare to continue their relationship with a fluke mentality.

　　But why are there so many people still in secret relationships?
　　Isn’t it because they can’t be caught or the probability of being caught is very small?

　　The information received by people in the circle is definitely more comprehensive and accurate than that received by people outside the circle.

　　There are so many celebrities in the entertainment industry who are in love, how many are exposed every year? As a result, these few exposed ones make people think that celebrities' love affairs are easy to be discovered. This may be the survivor bias.
　　So please don't make any comments saying that it's stupid for the protagonist to be so popular and still dare to date and eat out. People in the circle do this and they haven't been caught. Does it mean it's fake if the protagonist occasionally asks someone out for dinner and isn't photographed?
