Why bother writing songs? Fast forward to the "Don't Laugh Challenge"

Chapter 191 He can't learn this; there's only one like it. [25th update]

"I don't know."

He paced back and forth.

He really couldn't understand it this time. He felt that the world was getting crazier every day, completely contrary to his imagination, and not at all the same.

He had watched as Xia Shen repeatedly seized market share with his poorly made, trashy songs, stirring up trouble and even rendering the high-quality works produced by established, prestigious companies powerless to fight back.

He even went beyond national borders, getting foreigners to join him in abstraction!
Why did it not work for them? Instead, they were met with a barrage of criticism, and the album's sales and data plummeted the following day, resulting in a complete flop. They were even boycotted by a large number of netizens, and Hua Lingfei and Lin Manhe were showing signs of their reputations being tarnished.

According to his script, their strategy should have been absolutely perfect, so how could there have been a problem?
Does he really have to admit that he is inferior to Xia Shen?
Does he really have to admit that even with such a large and powerful warship, he couldn't sink Xia Shen's small boat?

At this moment, Ai Xin Hengsheng suddenly had the urge to back down. After being hit hard many times, he had used all his resources to devise this plan, hoping to turn the tables in front of the board of directors and prove himself.

To everyone's surprise, this happened, and the plan suffered another major setback.

Even though he never intended to target Xia Shen or Shen Kong this time, and was merely imitating Xia Shen's approach as an experiment, this situation still occurred.

He wasn't sure when the board would turn against him if things continued like this, but he certainly couldn't let things continue like this.

Now, cutting your losses in time isn't a bad thing.

Therefore, Aixin Hengsheng was just about to abandon its plans to target Xia Shen and Shen Kong.

He decided to back down, pretend nothing had happened, and let it go.

Unexpectedly, at this very moment, the board of directors issued a notice.

The company is about to hold another round of shareholders' meetings.

The sheer volume of information contained in this notice made him feel incredibly oppressed.

So, when he arrived at the venue and saw a room full of old men, including several clan elders wearing yellow jackets and sporting beaded pigtails, he still heard the news he least wanted to hear.

"Aixin Hengsheng, given your recent series of erroneous actions that have caused the company huge and unnecessary losses, the board of directors has now conducted a rigorous assessment of your abilities, and the association and the board have decided to remove you from your position as chairman!"

He's been fired!
At this moment, Ai Xin Heng Sheng seemed to have his soul hollowed out, and he aged twenty years in an instant.

After a long silence, he finally murmured, "Baka! No! No!! You can't do this!"

He couldn't accept this fact.

He suddenly remembered his entire life.

He built this company from scratch. During his turbulent childhood, in order to avoid being persecuted, he and his family traveled across the ocean to Japan.

After hiding for twenty years, he returned to China with his ancestral property and founded the company, thus entering the entertainment industry.

This is also the choice of the vast majority of people like him: to enter the entertainment industry.

Then, step by step, he built the company into what it is today, making it one of the most prestigious companies.

But now, he's being kicked out of the company he worked so hard to build?

How could he possibly accept this?!

However, the unanimous decision of the board of directors and all shareholders, combined, was enough to shake his position as chairman. The company had grown to a point where it was no longer a one-man show, unless they had chosen not to go public and he had prevented the association from diluting his shares.

However, one undeniable fact is that the company's development to where it is today is inseparable from the support of the association; otherwise, Xidie would not have reached this point.

Unexpectedly, the one who caused all of this was the head of an unknown small company, an ant he thought he could crush at will, who became the final heavy burden that brought his empire to a standstill.

When Ai Xin Heng Sheng left, he was completely devastated.

He couldn't accept his failure, and secondly, he didn't know how he lost.

He even drank for several days in a row, and at times he was so irritable that everyone trembled, and he would smash things at the drop of a hat.

He also made a phone call, asking Zhang Yuge to come and keep him company immediately.

He is very angry now.

Zhang Yuge's refusal and subsequent failure to answer his calls, a clear change in attitude, only fueled his despair.

Until a friend answered his question.

This is an expert in the industry whom he has known for a long time. He enjoys extremely high honors in the industry and is also a member of the same group as him.

That old friend said: "From the moment you decided to take Xia Shen's path, it was destined to fail. This path is impassable for anyone."

"Why?" he asked.

"The reason is simple: Xia Shen himself came from the lower-tier market. He belongs to that land, and everyone knows that he belongs to that land. He only moved towards the path of high-quality products later on."

Do you think Xia Shen doesn't get criticized? No, he still gets criticized, it's just that he's moved past that stage and entered a different one.

The old friend said, "He was no exception. In fact, in the early days, he bore no less infamy than anyone else, and no less than Hua Lingfei and Lin Manhe now."

In addition, the two people you invited are not from the lower-tier market. Their fans have very high expectations of them. When your answers are not what they want and the content they want to hear is not what they expect, how can they not be disappointed?
All I can say is that Xia Shen is a very special person, and in the Chinese music scene, he is unique, with no other like him.

Moreover, everyone knows Xia Shen is capable; he can work on products for the lower-tier market because people are prepared and know he's capable of doing those things.

That's it!

At this moment, Ai Xin Heng Sheng's question was finally answered.

But at this point, it's too late.

There's nothing he can change anymore.

Now, he felt a pang of regret.

If I hadn't targeted Xia Shen back then, would everything have been different? Would things be different now?
But clearly, he will not get the answer he wants to this question.

The news about the change of leadership at Xidie Entertainment quickly spread within the industry.

Xia Shen, of course, also heard the news.

However, he reacted very calmly to the news.
