The battle for traffic in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 489: Leave them with no way out!
This incident had almost no impact on Xu Xing.

The scandal with Bae Joo-hyun has been around for a long time. When Sun Man contacted the stylist on behalf of Heo Xing's team, the stylist quickly apologized on Instagram.

Because Sun Man made it clear that if she did not make a public apology, she would be held legally responsible for defaming Xu Xing.

The stylist's apology gave this bullying incident a brief pause of black humor.

The stylist's purpose was to expose Bae Joo-hyun because she was mad at her, but Heo Xing's fame directly turned the bullying incident into a scandal.

Huaguo laughed and joked.

"The stick has rubbed against the lucky saint again."

"While beating up a man's club and sleeping with a woman's club, Xingsheng is really awesome!"

"Xingsheng wouldn't really like a girl more, would he?"

“I’m just kidding, how come Xing Gou even slept with Sister Pei!”

"Please have sex with Saint Bae Joo Hyun for 20 minutes!!!"

South Korea was even more furious and even started to laugh at itself.

"Culturally, China has defeated us. Even the popular idols like China. The Republic of Korea is finished!"

"Kill this indecent woman!!!"

"Our soldiers BTS are fighting, what is this bitch doing???"

"This is the most shameful and humiliating incident that has never happened since the founding of the Republic of Korea 5000 years ago!!!"

"Surround SM! Arrest Lee Soo Man! Thoroughly investigate the traitorous company!!!"

Then, the stylist slid to his knees at the speed of light, and the scene was even more crazy.

“Why are you so scared? As a righteous person, why should you apologize?!”

"As expected of the suzerain state? In less than three hours, they obeyed the suzerain state's orders and apologized respectfully and fearfully."

"Hahahaha! The Republic of Korea surrendered faster than France!"

"Good kids of BTS, you can defend yourself against shells fired from abroad, but you can't imagine that there will be a bayonet piercing your heart from behind!"

Well, Bighit tried hard to add drama to BTS.

The chaos on Korean social media caused by Heo Xing continued until the evening, when it began to calm down and the criticism was directed at Bae Joo-hyun.

Some staff and people in the fashion industry who supported the stylist came out and criticized Ms. Pei for often acting like a big shot during their collaboration.

However, because Xu Xing was involved this time, many of Ms. Pei’s fans believed that Xu Xing’s boyfriend was spreading rumors and that bullying was also a rumor.

Even when the endorsements companies fled and Bae Joo-hyun issued a formal apology, they still believed that their sister had just done some insignificant inappropriate behavior at work, which was magnified by the stylist and bullied by a group of staff who were jealous of her beauty.

Bae Joo-hyun's Korean fans travel less than in her previous life, and her domestic fans are even more loyal.

Many people shouted:

"I like it even more knowing that Sister Pei is like this!"

"Please, Sister Pei, insult me for 20 minutes!"

But SM still announced the suspension of her schedule.

Bae Joo-hyun looks for Xu Xing's video every day and cries.

On the 21st, Xu Xing returned to the villa after filming and saw Ms. Pei with a sad face.

SM sent her to China.

Ms. Pei was wearing a cool white gauze dress and her makeup was very delicate.

With long hair draped over her shoulders and barefoot, she slowly walked towards Xu Xing, raised her head and choked with sobs.

"I have nothing left but you."

"Um, do I know you well?"

Xu Xing curled the corners of his mouth.

The moist starlight in Ms. Pei's eyes shook violently, she looked incredible, and tears burst out violently.

But the next moment the whole person flew up.

Xu Xing held her to his side with one hand, as if he was holding a handbag, and walked towards the sofa, chuckling.

"Indeed, we are quite familiar with each other. Be happy, like before."

"Oh, oh, I..." Ms. Pei, who was placed on the sofa, tried to force a smile through her tears, "I will -"

She stopped on her own.

In fact, Xu Xing had just taken it out and hadn't plugged it in yet.

When she saw Xu Xing also stopped, Ms. Pei, with blushing cheeks, took the initiative to move forward, but Xu Xing retreated again, and retreated so quickly that she had no way to catch up.

Ms. Pei felt extremely aggrieved and raised her head to ask what Xu Xing meant.

But as soon as the little head raised, it bumped into Xu Xing who was bending over and kissing it.

Xu Xing's body was as tall as a mountain, but the kiss on her tiny lips was as gentle as a feather floating down.

"Just kidding, we definitely have to kiss first."

He chuckled softly on his lips.

Ms. Pei's tears burst out more violently than ever before.

At this moment, she felt saved.

----

Overall, Xu Xing still adheres to the principle of giving each other emotional value.

Although Xu Xing has no shortage of women now, they come from far away to seek comfort during the epidemic, so he should try his best to give them comfort.

Meeting Ms. Pei alone in the villa tonight and not summoning Yang Chaoyue, who had worked with her before and was about to join the crew, showed Xu Xing's gentleness.

Ms. Pei was really attracted by Xu Xing's gentle kiss.

In fact, Xu Xing felt that they were more obsessed with the latter, but they all said it was the former, and Xu Xing did not argue with them.

So Xu Xing sighed again.

This time I was particularly crazy.

Xu Xing saw the WeChat message from Sun Man on his mobile phone.

[Billboard HOT100 has just been updated, "blinding lights" won the twelfth week of the championship, the second "exile", the third "dynamite". 】

It was really hard for Xu Xing not to think of the angry cries from the Korean forum that the marketing accounts brought up last week: What were women doing while men were fighting?

Feeling Xu Xing stop, he grabbed Xu Xing's back weakly.

Xu Xing had no choice but to hold her in one hand and continue checking WeChat while taking a slow walk.

Sun Man also attached a screenshot of the top ten.

This result is not surprising.

Last Thursday, "Dynamite" launched a final fierce attack in an attempt to steal the victory, but was easily defeated by the well-prepared Mantianxing again. It was doomed when they couldn't even surpass "Exile".

With all the download and streaming numbers out on Thursday, the only thing left to count is radio numbers, which "Dynamite" doesn't even consider.

Although we don't know how many downloads the three singles have actually received, the new single "Dynamite" by a Korean unknown is definitely more popular than that of national diva Taylor and pop tyrant Heo Xing.

The same is true.

Three singles set a record that shocked the world music scene this week. All three singles have over 40 downloads! One of them was released three months ago, and the other was released one month ago.

The highest of them is "blinding lights", which has an incredible download volume of 62.

"Exile" 48w, "dynamite" 43w.

The undehydrated weights of both "Blinding Lights" and "Dynamite" are over one million, but "Dynamite" has over 60% water.

Exile has the lowest water content, with "only" 61w of unfiltered downloads.

At the peak of the download market, this unprecedented spectacle was brought to light by a fight between two Oriental artists...

The three-day flight stunned the Americans.

The American music industry is full of "crazy" and "what the f**k", and the complaints have reached an unprecedented level.

The article on Billboard's official website celebrating the new vitality ignited in the download market was met with widespread ridicule.

The topic "He is right" was trending on social media because Trump once said "American music is over."

There is also talk of asking Heo Xing and BTS to get out of the United States.

But BTS is really in the United States now, but Xu Xing is not.

This point was pointed out by a large number of star-studded people.

The Stars also emphasized that they did not cheat on the charts. They were taking just actions to defend the B Chart and American music, just to defeat BTS's defilement of the B Chart.

The baby's breath spoke in a high-sounding manner.

It also provides evidence that Xu Xing always respected order and did not disrupt the B chart: Every time Xu Xing released a new single, except for the first two or three weeks when fans were too enthusiastic, he won the championship mainly by downloading. After that, Xu Xing's weekly championship was the championship after excluding downloads and combining streaming media and radio performance!

Xu Xing has never cheated on downloads, and he is still the champion of the B list!

It is so reasonable and well-founded that whether Americans believe it or not, it is the fact!
And what about BTS?
Every time it is downloaded, it is on the B chart, and the streaming and radio data are pitiful. Can this biggest hit song in history, "Dynamite", stay on the chart for the minimum 20 weeks???

"The biggest fake shopping in history" is also an entry angrily coined by American netizens, and Mantianxing strongly proves that this title belongs to "Dynamite".

At the end of the WeChat message, Sun Man said that people in the industry are speculating that B List will soon issue an announcement to modify the download rules to quell this controversy.

After reading the WeChat message, Xu Xing realized that Unit-01, which was still moving instinctively, had fallen asleep due to exhaustion.

Then let’s go to sleep!
When I woke up the next day, Weibo was flooded with news from abroad.

It's all about making history, crush BTS.

After a night of hard work by overseas stars to clear the source, "blinding lights" and "exile" joined forces to defend the B chart, which has become a good story.

There were also marketing accounts that reposted the anger of American netizens over this chart-manipulation incident, but netizens responded that Americans were getting impatient, and that Americans were complete trash and wanted the Chinese to protect their music.

There were also marketing accounts that made posts that spoke out against the crowd, revealing how much money Mantianxing and Xu Xing gave to the Americans in this ranking manipulation, and angrily accusing them of transferring assets overseas and aiding the enemy.

However, a report six months ago from CNN, the media outlet that was angry about Xu Xing's birth, revealed that Xu Xing had embezzled more than 2 million US dollars from the United States.

It racked its brains to fabricate that the total amount of money Xu Xing gave to Americans through years of brushing the charts was only 1 million US dollars.

This year, it is obvious to all that Xu Xing used the remaining money to do charity in the country.

Perfect response.

When Xu Xing was getting ready to get up, Ms. Taylor sent her a video call from across the ocean.

"Wow! This is incredible! Together we made history! What an incredible achievement!"

Ms. Tai sighed repeatedly in the video.

Ms. Pei, who was extremely tired but woke up early for some reason and was serving silently in a daze, became alert immediately.

She kept rubbing Xu Xing's legs, and when Xu Xing saw her mouthing "Taylor Swift" and nodded, Ms. Pei lowered her head in envy and admiration.

When Ms. Pei heard Taylor's exclamation and then chatted with Xu Xing about her plan to release her second album within the year, she was overwhelmed with emotion.

She even had the strange idea that she was kissing Ms. Tai.

BTS and BP are being praised everywhere and appreciated by big-name singers in Europe and America, but everyone in the industry knows that it is just a commercial response.

Xu Xing is an Asian who is friends with the most popular American star and is truly respected by Americans!

There is only one in the world!
Pei Zhuxuan secretly questioned her abnormal relationship with Xu Xing countless times, repeatedly asking herself in her heart, what is there to be nostalgic about this hateful man? ...

Bae Joo-hyun knew that she was being infatuated and that she was no longer naive, but she just couldn't control herself.

Xu Xing's infinite charm and the unlimited happiness that Xu Xing brought her should all be reasons for her to be a fangirl over him!

She had long since admitted that she was finished with Xu Xing.

Therefore, when she knew that her career as an artist seemed to be over, she instinctively wanted to find Xu Xing.

The more she read those online comments, the more heartbroken and regretful she became.

Before she had the courage to continue watching, Bae Joo-hyun saw that Xu Xingguang quickly forced that bitch to apologize, helping her gain a lot of room for easing the situation in the public opinion field.

Many of the people who still believe in her now do so because of this apology.

When everyone around her was "forcing" her to apologize to that bitch, only Xu Xing slapped the woman on her behalf and helped her.

Choosing to come to China alone means that he has absolute trust in Xu Xing.

What glamorous idols, what eternal fans, cheers, screams, lights, stage...all gone together!

As Bae Joo-hyun thought about it, she wanted to cry again.

However, Xu Xing had already finished her call with Taylor and began to speed up gently.

When her consciousness was a little fuzzy, Bae Joo-hyun was still thinking in her dizzy mind that Xu Xing was considerate of her... She knew how terrifying Xu Xing's normal state was.

His hair was gently rubbed again.

"Sleep well at home and don't think too much."

Xu Xing finished her instructions gently.

Ms. Pei used her remaining strength to force a smile.

The next second, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Xu Xing was startled.

Only after confirming that Ms. Pei was sleeping and sleeping very soundly did Xu Xing feel relieved.

She was so tired that she felt like she could sleep all day.

----

BTS's attack on the Billboard Hot 100 No. 22 single and its challenge to Heo Xing seemed to have come to an end after the chart came out on the nd.

After the 17th, the downloads of "Dynamite" only increased slowly. There were only two days left in the statistical cycle of the new week's chart data, and they did not take any further action.

On Spotify and other streaming media, Dynamite's performance in the US region is average. It is very strong in Southeast Asia, but that is where big machines can be used.

According to the current trend, Dynamite will fall out of the top five or even the top ten this week.

Bighit has released a lot of press releases in Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia about the success of "Dynamite", and it seems that they want to return to stabilize their base in Asia for the time being.

But without a crown order, there is no crown order.

On the 23rd, the official website of B Chart issued a statement announcing that it would change the rules this week and would no longer take into account the digital single download results from the artist’s official website.

The American music industry is in shock!
Analysts believe this marks the complete death of the download era.

The three songs with over 40 downloads in a single week became the swan song - because the B chart did not say that it would be implemented from last week, it is still recorded in history.

Everyone was cheering and celebrating, thinking that peace could finally be restored to the American music industry.

Xu Xing, Taylor Swift, and BTS, who gave rise to this rule change, were widely ridiculed.

Three months after its release, the number of downloads suddenly increased by 60. Even if the streaming media and radio stations of "Blinding Lights" are still invincible, as the "leader", it will be the first to go to the pillar of shame.

As for Ms. Taylor, because she is too famous in the United States, her fans can easily explain that it was Xu Xing's fans who posted the comments. However, many people who claim to be rational believe that Xu Xing's fans do not have the ability to post two singles at the same time.

BTS, on the other hand, is ridiculed the least because they are the least popular and many Americans really don’t know who they are, and they don’t even know who they are this time.

I only looked at the top two on the list, and after seeing two familiar names, I stopped reading.

However, Xu Xing was not worried.

On the contrary, I was extremely happy.

"This week, 'Blinding Lights' is still the champion, and 'Exile' is still the second. 'Dynamite', which plummeted out of the top ten, will be screened out, and it will be proven that we are guarding the B chart. Losing the champion because of the rule change is the real shame. And that is in the United States, not China. A good image is useless. There are a lot of singers on the chart who can't even get a domestic visa. The music speaks for itself."

"..."

Sun Man still felt that the loss outweighed the gain.

Because if Xu Xing wants to win the title in the future, the difficulty will increase significantly.

“It’s a bit like the Seven Wounds Fist, but since last year’s “Old Town Road” and even since “Shape of You”, I wanted to force this rule change early because it’s the biggest loophole in the chart. Now I’ve finally achieved my strategic goal, and I couldn’t be happier.

"Next time I release a single, I just need to choose the right time and not release a hit single. As for them, it's almost impossible for them to have a number one single in the future. I'll finish my own path and leave them with nowhere to go. This will be a bigger blow to them, and it may even be a permanent solution. We really made a profit."

Xu Xing smiled.

BTS’s previous number one singles, especially the infamous ten-week number one “butter,” were mainly achieved through digital downloads from the artists’ official websites.

After that, the only useful rule is basically to have n versions of a single song.

But the explosive power of this business law cannot be compared with that of the artist’s official website, and it will also be ridiculed for being too ugly.

Streaming media will be the real king in the future.

Therefore, there are conspiracy theories on overseas social media that Xu Xing was supported by Spotify to completely destroy the download market.

Very stupid, not worth mentioning.

The chain reaction caused by the modification of the B list rules was extremely rapid. When the crew was finishing work, Xu Xing received a call from Mr. Qu.

On the phone, she told Xu Xing that Bighit's listing plan had fallen through.

With BTS expected to be unable to achieve further success, KOADAQ is expected to reject Bighit's listing application again.

Bighit lost everything, and for a long time, they could only focus on getting out of the deepening debt abyss.

Xu Xing hasn't even thrown out the verdict on the audio source hoarding.

After being congratulated by President Qu, Xu Xing returned to the villa where Pei Zhuxuan was.

Originally, due to the physical sequelae of her going too crazy last night, Xu Xing was going to arrange for someone else to sleep with her today.

But in the afternoon, SM released an announcement, announcing the upcoming launch of a new girl group.

This means Red Velvet can prepare to be buried.
